The demon world I designed
Chapter 57 Eggs
Why do so many people ask about the current houses in Liuzhou?
Gu Beiquan felt something was wrong. Even if he was just a fool, why did he appear one after another?
With a faint sense of uneasiness, he hurriedly went to visit the next one. Half an hour later, he got the same reply. Until then, even though he was slow to respond, he realized that someone was deliberately causing trouble!
He quickly urged the housekeeper to return to the county government and prepared to take the government officials to chase him.
As soon as the men and horses were ordered, the instructor Liu Yiqi saw it and stepped forward to ask: "Where are you going, Lord County Magistrate?"
"Go and stop people!" Gu Beiquan didn't like Liu Yiqi who liked to show off his seniority at all, especially when he was forced to come over by that guy Chen Qing.
Liu Yiqi frowned when he heard this, and the housekeeper quickly explained a few words. Liu Yiqi immediately understood the situation: "It seems that Chen Qing was the one responsible for this and wanted to coax those wives back."
"Humph, do you still need to say that?" Gu Beiquan snorted coldly.
Liu Yiqi suppressed the anger in his heart and analyzed rationally: "Sir, although Chen Qing's method is a bit clumsy, but in what name do you directly lead the government officials to stop people like this?"
"Uh?" Gu Beiquan was stunned by these words.
Yes, in what name do you use to stop people?
Those masters were all going back to Liuzhou to pack their things, so why should I stop them?
Even if you are a parent official, you cannot mess around with these famous scholars.
Thinking of this, Gu Beiquan became even more angry: "Are we going to let him trick people back like this?"
"Sir, please calm down..." Liu Yiqi smiled helplessly: "Sir, you can't bring people back by force, and Chen Qing can't force people inside. It's not like you don't know the current situation in Liuzhou, so what's the use of playing those little tricks? ?”
"I know too..." Gu Beiquan said irritably: "But I always feel something is wrong. Then Chen Qing is not stupid. With so many tricks, is there no backup plan?"
"Your Excellency, you have high regard for him." Liu Yiqi smiled disdainfully: "He is a sycophant with no background and no ability. How can he solve the matter in Liuzhou? If the matter in Liuzhou is not solved, even if he talks about it, those masters will not be able to solve it. Can’t stay.”
"That's true..." Gu Beiquan felt a little better after hearing this.
"As long as we prepare a banquet and entertain the masters well after they return in despair, we will definitely be able to keep a lot of people. Even if a great scholar like Master Feng cannot stay, are Master An and Master Liu just high-ranking officials?" Master, can’t we stay?”
"Hmm..." Gu Beiqi finally nodded and thought to himself: Although Liu Yiqi usually likes to act like an elder, what he said this time still makes sense. He did overreact.
Thinking of this, he said: "The banquet will be arranged by Lao Liujiao."
"How can you call it hard work when you are doing your job?" Liu Yiqi immediately smiled and saluted, "I will not let you down, my lord."
He sneered in his heart: This guy was finally willing to let himself do something. If it weren't for the fact that the retention of these masters was related to the political achievements of his teaching, he would not bother to care about this guy.
After the matter of retaining his wife is settled, he will concentrate on culture and education, and distance himself from the county magistrate. With his reckless temper, something will happen sooner or later, but don't drag yourself into trouble...
——
On the other side, due to the operations of Gu Bei and others, more than a dozen masters from Luling County who had studied and taught in Liuzhou Prefecture were lured over one after another. Luling County is not far from Liuzhou, and the masters who arrived early could not arrive there. We arrived at the south gate of Liuzhou at dusk.
At this time, everyone was surprised when they saw the scene at the door.
"Oh, Master Feng, are you here too?"
When Master Feng got out of the car, he was stunned when he saw a bunch of fellow passengers. His wife was still chattering behind her, complaining about what her master was doing back in this scary place. As a result, she was confused when she got off the car.
"What are you guys doing?" Master Feng felt that he had been tricked.
Then a group of people smiled bitterly and recounted their experiences. Master Feng also smiled bitterly when he heard this: "It seems that this is a small trick played by the new prefect, but he has pity for us old bones."
"Who says it's not?" said a master next to him: "But what's interesting is that Liuzhou is more lively than expected now."
Master Feng looked towards the door after hearing this. He remembered that someone had said before that after Liuzhou's officers and soldiers were transferred, Liuzhou immediately became a dead city. The caravans on the canal all went to the other two docks. It had only been a few days. , it’s getting warmer?
There are quite a few caravans piled up at the door. From a visual inspection, there are dozens of caravans, with at least a thousand people. Although this is not as prosperous as Liuzhou once was, it is a huge difference from the time when Liuzhou was desolate and like a ghost town.
"Do you know the reason?" Master Feng asked curiously.
"I have inquired about it. This new prefect has exempted Liuzhou from commercial taxes!" A master stroked his beard and said: "He is quite courageous. As soon as the news came out, some merchant ships that were originally piled on the river chose to come over to try their luck. , some big business shop owners also come here to receive goods with the intention of giving it a try. From the looks of it, it seems to be going well so far. "
"Drinking poison to quench thirst..." Master Feng shook his head when he heard this: "Although this can bring back some flow in a short period of time, it cannot solve the fundamental problem. Without commercial taxes, the government has no money, how to maintain law and order in Liuzhou? The law and order is poor, people sneak in If there are too many monsters and monsters, trouble will arise, and then you will really lose your wife and lose your troops!"
Several masters on the side nodded when they heard this: "Master Feng is right."
Master Feng sighed, but there was a hint of disappointment in his heart.
I originally thought that something had changed in Liuzhou, but it turned out to be such a small trick. If so, I would definitely not move back. It seems that I still have to urge Nanming Mansion.
Just as he was thinking about it, a bright light suddenly shot into the sky from the city gate in front, and the masters who had never seen such a battle retreated in panic.
Most of them are aware of the existence of demons and ghosts, but since the beginning of the Jin Dynasty, they have never seen any demons and ghosts so rampant. How dare they appear at the city gate in the clear sky and in broad daylight?
"What kind of evildoer dares to attack my Liuzhou!!"
The phantom of the white wolf was much larger than on the first day. It was four to five feet tall. Its voice was powerful and powerful. Masters who were more than a hundred meters away could hear it clearly. However, the voice was not harsh. With an inexplicable majesty!
Some familiar people knelt down and worshiped, while some newcomers felt inexplicable, but were not very panicked. They always felt that although this huge white wolf looked mighty and scary, it actually gave people a sense of security, and they had no instinct in their hearts. Feel scared…..
But there are exceptions, and that is a certain evil spirit being stared at by the white wolf!
I saw the rich man wearing fancy silk and having a plump body lying on the ground, shivering. Foul-smelling yellow water began to flow out from between his ears and nose, and everyone around him retreated.
The next second, a shrill scream sounded, and a bloody hole opened in the rich man's fat head, and a half-meter-long weird maggot came out, roared and fled back quickly!
"You're trying to kill someone and still want to run away?" Bai Lang roared angrily: "Get it for me!"
"yes!"
The two guards at the door dropped their spears and ran after the maggots.
The maggot was very fast, like a water snake. Many people's eyes could not catch up with it as it walked close to the ground. Moreover, the maggot fled in the direction where the masters gathered. A group of elegant scholars staggered back in fright.
But the panic didn't last long. In just a few breaths, the two guards behind them rushed forward like tigers and wolves in a few steps. They took down the insect before it could rush towards the masters!
The maggot roared, opening its mouth wide to reveal its densely jagged fangs, but before it could make any move, it was crushed into pulp by the guard who caught it!
The green juice exploded, scaring the masters to hide away, but the well-informed masters calmed down at that moment.
"Is this an insect demon?" Master Feng looked at the insect that had exploded into meat paste and asked in a low voice.
"Sir, do you know about this?" The guard wiped the juice from his face and asked with a smile.
Master Feng suppressed the nausea in his heart, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General, for your help!"
He knew about this thing. In the Jiangnan water town, the most common incidents in the prefectures along the harbor were the water ghost incident and the insect demon incident. Water ghosts like to hide in caravans, while insect demons like to hide in seafood.
Those who love to eat fish are the easiest to fall prey to. Once parasitized, their appearance will be the same as that of ordinary people, but in reality their brains will be eaten away, like a walking zombie. They will be controlled by the insect demon. As time goes by, the insect demon will lay eggs and return to the human body. It can harm the whole family!
Masters who know the inside story never follow the example of those nouveau riche who pursue the so-called seafood fish.
But although this kind of thing is widespread, it is the most difficult to deal with because it is difficult to detect.
"Sir, you're welcome!" The soldier quickly responded: "A mere soldier at the city gate, how can he be called a general?"
Master Feng was confused when he heard this. In fact, he wanted to ask just now, with the opponent's skills, how could he be just a small soldier at the city gate?
I'm afraid some of the personal soldiers and captains of some aristocratic families may not be so powerful, right?
"Gentlemen, are you going into the city?" Another soldier stepped forward and saluted: "Looking at the gentlemen's attire, they should be scholars, right? The prefect has given orders that scholars can enter the city first. Gentlemen, please..."
The Jin Dynasty has certain strict rules on clothing. Although merchants are allowed to wear silk to promote consumption, they are not allowed to wear blue shirts and white clothes. Only scholars and medical students can wear these two clothes. It is a felony for any businessman to wear them privately. .
When the soldiers guarding the gate saw this group of old men in white, they knew that Gu Bei's group should have finished their work.
"Okay, okay!" Master Feng nodded with a smile. It seemed that he had underestimated the new prefect just now, and it turned out that he had a back-up plan.
When a group of people walked to the door, the soldier just now presented the twitching corpse of the insect monster in his hand and saluted: "The monster has been killed, please return to your position, Lord Door God!"
"Lord Door God, please return to your position!" Other soldiers also shouted.
"Wait a minute!" This time, the white wolf did not return immediately, but looked at the seafood, fish and shrimp pushed in by the boys behind the rich man just now.
"You dare to hide? Show yourself!!"
With a sharp shout, the frozen fish and shrimps began to jump. The next second, hundreds of thumb-long maggots came out, with a strong fishy smell, making everyone around them cover their noses and retreat!
These maggots were obviously not as strong as the previous large maggots that sucked human flesh. They writhed and died on the ground within a few breaths under the sun, and were trampled into pulp by a group of soldiers!
The next moment, Bai Lang looked at some people at the door: "You have insect eggs in your body, and they need to be excreted in time, otherwise your life will be risked."
The people who were seen turned pale when they heard this. When they thought of the horrific situation of their friend just now, they all fell to their knees and fell to the ground. Some of the quick-thinking people immediately kowtowed to the ground and said, "Please save me, Lord Door God!"
"I can't do anything. This needs the power of the spring water from the Nanshan Mountain God to cure this. You can be recommended by the government and pay homage to the mountain god. You may have a chance of survival!"
After saying that, before the person kneeling at the door could react, he disappeared with the wind.
Upon seeing this, a group of people knelt down and knelt down to worship. Silks of white light converged on the city wall, and the soldiers guarding the gate felt more powerful.
Master Feng and others stayed in place in a daze.
This scene was so shocking that even experienced teachers like them couldn't react.
"Sir officers and men!" The businessman who was named as having insect eggs just now stepped forward and begged: "Is what the door god said just now true?"
"Of course what the Lord Door God said is true!" Because of his faith, the soldier guarding the door couldn't hear the question about the Door God, and frowned: "Do you still think that the Lord is tricking you?"
"No, no..." The businessmen shook their heads repeatedly: "Where is the mountain god that the door god said? Can you introduce us to him?"
"This has to be reviewed by the government." The officers and soldiers looked at the few people and said, "You guys have insect eggs and are very dangerous. After entering the city, you must follow the officials closely and are not allowed to run around. Otherwise, if you are caught, you will be forcibly expelled. Liuzhou, do you understand?”
"I understand, I understand!" Several people nodded.
"Okay, Qi Da, you take some of them there."
Then he looked at the ladies and said, "Gentlemen, please come into the city."
Master Feng nodded, and looked again at the place where the so-called door god disappeared. He had all kinds of doubts in his heart, but seeing that the soldiers guarding the city were so busy, they didn't delay them, so he thought he might as well go into the city and have a look.
"Master Feng, what do you think?" The other masters looked at Master Feng and asked, obviously just like him, they were extremely curious.
"Let's go!" Master Feng took the lead directly and followed the group of businessmen with insect eggs: "Follow and have a look!"
