"what are these?"

Qin Shaoyou couldn't help being a little surprised when he looked at the bamboo cage and books that Qiu Shi handed over.

Qiu Shi introduced: "This is a cage for raising Gu worms. There are nine floors in it, and there are nine different types and functions of Gu worms. I have written the relevant introductions and usage methods in this booklet. Bring them with you, it might help."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Qiu."

After Qin Shaoyou accepted the bamboo cage and books, he told Qiu Shi in a low voice to report immediately once he got any results from his search in Guankou County.

After it was over, he got on his war horse, and together with Cui Yougui, Zhu Xiucai, Sun Xianzong and others, they left the town of Yaosi and walked out of the city.

And this scene was naturally noticed by those who were monitoring the situation of Qin Shaoyou and the town monster in Mianyuan County.

"Where is this kid surnamed Qin going?"

"Look at the luggage on the horse's back, I'm afraid I'm going to travel far."

"It must be going to Zhoucheng! You forgot? Not long ago, Zuo Qianhu asked someone to send a warrant to this kid surnamed Qin, asking him to report to the Demon Division of Zhouzhen after he stabilized the situation in Mianyuan County. Condition."

"So, he can't wait to claim credit for himself? No wonder he was able to become a trial member of the town demon division at a young age. If he is so good at making money, how can he not be promoted quickly?"

Hearing this, the leader murmured: "If he is really greedy for the official position, it would be a good thing... At least it will be much easier for us to bribe him."

The others nodded in unison.

Since they sent back the news that there was a new city god in Mianyuan County, they soon received an order from the nobleman to find out the origin of the city god in Mianyuan County.

In the past few days, they also investigated clearly and found out that the new city god of Mianyuan County, named Cai Guizhong, was a sacrificed night watchman, and when he was alive, he worked under Qin Shaoyou's hands.

Although they have not yet ascertained whether Qin Shaoyou played any role in Cai Guizhong's becoming the City God, there is speculation.

The nobleman probably thought so too, so not long ago, a new order was sent to them, asking them to find ways to win over and buy Qin Shaoyou while continuing to investigate the matter.

"You said, why did you suddenly want to win over and buy this kid surnamed Qin?"

Some people can't figure it out, so they ask.

The leader sneered, and said, "What do you need to ask? The new city god in Mianyuan County must have some relationship with this kid surnamed Qin. Maybe it was with his help that he became the city god. Although the nobleman Gui, but he is just an ordinary person. If there is a chance to become a god, can he not be tempted? Even if he can't be a god, being a city god or even a land is better than dying and returning to the underworld, reincarnated? Who? Do you know what kind of fetus you can reincarnate in your next life, or are you human?"

Everyone nodded in unison, feeling that this analysis was reasonable.

"The New City God of Mianyuan County really got help from that kid named Qin?"

"Who knows? But for noble people, as long as there is an opportunity, no matter how slim the opportunity is, I'm afraid they want to try it... It's you and me. If there is such a chance to become a god, why don't you want to?"

"It makes sense. But what if the kid surnamed Qin refuses to drink a toast and refuses to accept the nobleman's kindness?"

"That's not something you and I worry about. But I guess, if he doesn't have sense of humor and dares to toast and refuse to eat fine wine, the nobleman will probably make him never drink."

After a few whispers, they wrote the news that Qin Shaoyou led the team to Zhoucheng into a secret letter and sent it out quietly.

They thought that what they were doing was very secretive, and they didn't know about it all, and it was all under the control of the town demon in Mianyuan County.

So as soon as their secret letter was sent out, Qin Shaoyou knew about it, and even saw the whole content of their whispered discussion.

"The king of Shu wants to win me over? If that's the case, he can use it..."

Qin Shaoyou pondered in his heart.

And Zhu Xiucai, who sent the information, asked in a low voice: "My lord, do you want to stop the secret letter they sent?"

"No need."

After serious consideration, Qin Shaoyou shook his head and refused.

It's not difficult to stop the secret letter, but when they arrived in Zhoucheng, the King of Shu didn't receive the information from the eyeliner here, so he must know that the eyeliner has been exposed.

That would cause more trouble.

Zhu Xiucai nodded to express his understanding, and immediately conveyed Qin Shaoyou's order.

After leaving the county seat, everyone mounted their horses and galloped along the official road towards the state capital.

Going from Mianyuan County to Zhoucheng will not pass through the prefecture of Luocheng, so Qin Shaoyou has to wait until he returns from Zhoucheng, and then go home to tell his parents the good news of his promotion, and compare his cultivation with his third brother-in-law to see who is better now sharp.

Let's teach Xue Xiaobao a lesson again, who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and wants to travel around.

Qin Shaoyou and the others galloped all the way, and soon left Mianyuan County.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and they were out of the range of Luocheng again.

The journey for the past two days was quite smooth, and I didn't encounter any ghosts. Occasionally, I ran into a few groups of refugees. Seeing that they were many people and armed with weapons, they didn't dare to approach them, and ran away from far away.

"The number of refugees recently seems to be more than before..."

The horse monk, who was getting bigger and bigger, was riding the largest and strongest horse in the Yaosi town of Mianyuan County. From a distance, it looked like a small moving hill.

Looking at the refugees fleeing into the mountains and forests in the distance, he couldn't help sighing, flicked the Buddhist beads on his wrist, and recited Amitabha.

Zhu Xiucai, who is in charge of intelligence work, knows far more information than his old comrades-in-arms, and said in a low voice: "The barbarians in Qingtang have been killed, and several military villages and towns have been destroyed in a row. The people there are either taken into slavery. , or become displaced, fleeing and becoming refugees.”

Monk Ma frowned and said, "Didn't the Marquis of Dongchuan take his troops to Qingtang? Why didn't you stop the barbarians?"

Zhu Xiucai glanced around, and said in a low voice, "I heard a gossip... Let me state it first, I don't know if it's true or not, so just listen to it as a story... It is said that the barbarians in Qingtang didn't want to invade in the first place. What they mean is that Marquis Dongchuan forced them to do it."

Zhu Xiucai had reported this matter to Qin Shaoyou, and Qin Shaoyou also guessed whether it might be related to Liu Shuyuan, the patrol censor, but there were too few clues to be sure.

After Monk Ma heard it, he felt incredible: "Why did the Marquis of Dongchuan do this?"

"Who knows, maybe it's for the self-respect of the bandits, or there may be some other intention... In short, it's suffering for the people. In our Mianyuan County, Anzhi County has implemented a series of measures to resettle the refugees, and the situation is a little better. But the attitude of the local officials here seems to be to expel rather than resettle refugees.”

Having said that, Zhu Xiucai sighed, then shook his head and sneered again.

"The emperor is obsessed with refining alchemy and cultivating immortals. The princes in the court are busy fighting with each other, while the stupid and mediocre officials in the local area are not only concerned with making money, but they are letting demons run rampant and cults are rampant... Now a war has broken out. Coupled with the natural disasters that have occurred continuously in the past few years, I see this world..."

Qin Shaoyou on the side couldn't listen any longer, he gave Zhu Xiucai a sideways glance, and sternly reprimanded: "Shut up, don't you understand the truth that disaster comes from your mouth?"

Although everyone in the team is from our own people, and although Zhu Xiucai spoke in a low voice, it is a rebellious statement after all. I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life.

Zhu Xiucai shrank his neck and bowed his hands to accept the order, not daring to say any more.

It was getting dark.

Everyone stopped rushing too much, and planned to stay in the county ahead for one night, and then continue to set off tomorrow.

But when they entered this county, they had only walked a short distance before they realized that this place was quite strange.
