I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster
Chapter 22 The Desperate Wild Dog
The time soon came to noon.
A group of cavalry appeared outside Wujiabao, led by Zhu Xiucai.
After seeing them from a distance, the warriors guarding the wall hurriedly went to inform Qin Shaoyou.
When Qin Shaoyou arrived, the cavalry had already arrived at Wujiabao.
In addition to Zhu Xiucai and the few wrestlers he took away, there was also an acquaintance of Qin Shaoyou in the team—Xu Zongqi.
Xue Qingshan sent his confidant Zongqi here, it seems that he attaches great importance to this case.
Looking at the people brought by Xu Zongqi, they were all newcomers who had been added to Luocheng Town Demon Division in the past few months.
Qin Shaoyou instantly understood what his brother-in-law was thinking.
"It seems that my brother-in-law is also worried. I am afraid that some of the old people in Luocheng town demons will be bribed by the Wu family. When they come, they will take the opportunity to make trouble, hinder the investigation, and even destroy the evidence..."
Outside Wubao, Zhu Xiucai saw Qin Shaoyou and shouted loudly: "My lord, we are back!"
"Open the door."
Qin Shaoyou recovered from his contemplation, turned his head to give instructions to Monk Ma, and then walked down the wall to meet Xu Zongqi, Zhu Xiucai and others.
The gate of U Fort opened quickly, and cavalry troops entered the fort one after another.
Qin Shaoyou first said "hard work" to Zhu Xiucai and a few wrestlers, and then bowed his hands to Xu Zongqi.
Xu Zongqi was very happy to see Qin Shaoyou, grabbed him and said, "Master Xue asked me to tell you a word - you are a good boy, you are really a lucky general!"
After passing the message, Xu Zongqi asked his subordinates to go down to handover with Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others, and asked Zhu Youyi, the town demon priest who came with the team, to check on the sleeping caravan members and find a way to wake them up .
Xu Zongqi himself pulled Qin Shaoyou to continue talking.
"Master Xue has just taken over Luo Chengcheng Demon Division, and he needs to make some achievements to prove himself, so he is also blocking the mouth of the villain. You sent him such a big case, and he was very happy, and praised you again and again. This time we We have to follow the vine and find out all the night watchmen and officials who have ties to the Wu family and get rid of them!"
Qin Shaoyou immediately understood.
Brother-in-law is going to use the Wu family's case to make a name for himself!
In addition to the night watchmen bought by the Wu family, maybe they will take the opportunity to take down a group of people who don't listen to him.
Qin Shaoyou has no interest in getting involved in this kind of power struggle in the officialdom.
Xu Zongqi also noticed it, so after a brief chat to let Qin Shaoyou know the general situation, he ended the topic.
The two came to the handover scene.
Xu Zongqi asked as usual: "The people and property of the Wu family are all here? You didn't cheat and let the people of the Wu family go away, and filled your own pockets to embezzle the property of the Wu family, right?"
"No, we are not that kind of people!"
Qin Shaoyou looked upright.
Xu Zongqi nodded, and didn't ask any more questions, but casually looked at the fighters under Qin Shaoyou's hands.
The wrestlers responded with smiles, but the smiles were a little stiff.
One of the wrestlers was a little nervous. After being watched by Xu Zongqi, he subconsciously covered his waist with his hands, as if trying to cover up something.
What he never expected was that as soon as he put his hand on the belt, he pressed out the things hidden inside and fell to the ground with a clatter.
In a piece of gold cake, the golden light is shining under the sunlight.
Knowing that he had caused trouble, the strongman suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly bent over to pick up the fallen gold cake.
As a result, before the gold cake was picked up, two silver cakes fell out of his arms.
Lux suddenly froze, not daring to move anymore.
The atmosphere froze immediately, and everyone was a little embarrassed.
It was Qin Shaoyou who reacted first, glared at the wrestler, pretended nothing happened, and said:
"What are you still standing there for? Pick up the money quickly! After finally saving a little savings, you're going to show it off?"
"Yes Yes."
Although he was scolded, the wrestler breathed a sigh of relief, quickly picked up the gold and silver cakes on the ground, and stuffed them into his bosom.
The colleague next to him also breathed a sigh of relief, and reprimanded in a low voice: "What did you do, so careless?"
Lishi replied in a softer voice: "I don't want to either. The Lord gave me too much gold and silver, and I couldn't fit it in my sleeves or pockets. After Xu Zongqi glanced at it, I felt nervous..."
Qin Shaoyou turned his head and explained to Xu Zongqi with his expression unchanged: "This warrior has worked for the Demon Suppressing Division for many years, so it's normal to have some savings, right?"
"Yes, it's normal." Xu Zongqi laughed dryly.
In my heart, I was complaining: Normal fart, do you think I don't know where these gold and silver come from? He is a strong man, how could he save so much by only relying on his salary!
But Xu Zongqi did not expose Qin Shaoyou.
On the one hand, it is because of the relationship between Qin Shaoyou and Xue Qingshan.
On the other hand, it is an unwritten unwritten rule to pocket some money and goods from the seizure.
Although the Great Xia Law expressly prohibits it, in fact, as long as it is not too much, it is all open and closed, as if it did not see it.
Not to mention Qin Shaoyou and others, even he, Xu Zongqi, had to go through a fight before escorting the Wu family's property back to Luocheng.
These fighters under Qin Shaoyou's hands did not do this kind of thing less before, but this time they got a lot of money, which made them feel nervous.
Seeing that the people he brought had almost handed over to Qin Shaoyou and the others, Xu Zongqi waved them away.
"Okay, you guys hurry up and leave the rest of the matter to us. If you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach your destination before dark."
He was in such a hurry to drive people away because he was afraid that if the unlucky wrestler stayed here, he would make some other troubles and make it impossible for everyone to step down.
Qin Shaoyou couldn't get what he wanted, and cupped his hands and said, "Then let's go, and the things here will be hard work for Xu Zongqi."
Xu Zongqi cupped his hands in return: "It's not hard work, it should be done. I wish you a smooth journey and solve the case as soon as possible. After returning to Luocheng, I will treat you to a drink."
This time, he got Qin Shaoyou's favor and got a lot of credit and benefits. In addition, he also wanted to get in touch with Qin Shaoyou, so he took the initiative to show his favor.
"Then thank you Mr. Xu first."
Naturally, Qin Shaoyou would not refuse the other party's kindness, so he agreed immediately, then got on his horse, led Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others out of Wujiabao, and galloped in the direction of Mianyuan County.
They went very smoothly along the way, without encountering any accidents.
When they arrived at Mianyuan County, the sky was still bright and the gate of the county was still open.
Compared with Luo City, the city walls and gates of Mianyuan County are much smaller, but there are quite a lot of dogs inside and outside the city.
A group of soldiers stood guard at the city gate, checking the identities and luggage of those entering and leaving the city gate.
Seeing the arrival of Qin Shaoyou and others, this group of soldiers immediately became vigilant, because they were all burly and armed with weapons.
A strong man who looked like a leader held a knife in one hand and shouted, "Stop and get off your horse! Who are you? What are you doing in Mianyuan County?"
"We are policemen from Luocheng, ordered to come to Mianyuan County on business."
Qin Shaoyou took out a Luocheng policeman's badge and related documents from his luggage, and asked Zhu Xiucai to show it to the other party.
The identity of the police is their disguise this time.
It has the right to investigate the case, and it will not make the ghosts who steal children too alert.
After all, it is difficult for ordinary policemen to deal with ghosts.
The leader of the soldiers inspected the waist badge. Although he couldn't understand the words on the official document, he carefully compared the official seal.
After confirming that they were correct, he returned these things to Zhu Xiucai, and while gesturing for his subordinates to let them go, he asked, "Business? Are you here to investigate the case of missing children?"
"How do you know?" Qin Shaoyou put away his waist badge and official documents and asked casually.
The soldier leader smiled.
"Do you need to ask? In the past two months in Mianyuan County, apart from the case of missing children, what other cases are worth asking the police from Fucheng to investigate?
But let me tell you, even if you come here, you can't find any clues.
Because this case was not done by man at all, but by a demon, so the town demon division should send someone to come! "
"The Zhen Yaosi has been dealing with the Black Lotus Sect demons recently, and they can't get any manpower for a while." Qin Shaoyou said half-truth, and then asked: "Have any children disappeared in the past two days?"
"Why not? Just last night, Zhang Shilang's grandson disappeared.
The county magistrate was called to Zhang Shilang's mansion late at night, and was scolded bloody.
The policemen and night watchmen in the county searched overnight, causing the whole city to jump up and down, but in the end, they still found nothing. "
"Zhang Shilang's grandson is also missing?"
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help frowning, this is not good news.
When Qin Shaoyou and the others were about to enter the city, a warrior couldn't help but asked, "Why are there so many dogs in Mianyuan County?"
"These are all wild dogs." The city gate soldier replied, "In the past few months, many wild dogs have come to our Mianyuan County, and even ran to residents' homes. They couldn't be chased away. Some people just caught them Dogs, kill and eat meat, it is said that the taste is very delicious."
"Wild dogs?"
Qin Shaoyou raised his brows slightly, and looked at the dogs wandering around.
"what?"
After reading it, he was a little surprised.
He actually saw despair and pain in the eyes of these wild dogs.
This dog...will also be desperate?
