Terran Guardian - Chapter 92

[Chapter 91]

at night.

The Zhou family was silent.

After the ancestral house was engulfed by the fire in the daytime, the old man Zhou started a big fire, causing some servants to be silent.

No one dared to speak loudly until nightfall.

Only some nursing homes are constantly patrolling the Zhou residence.

“I heard that the ancestral house was destroyed, and the evil spirit was also beheaded. Will the master rebuild the ancestral house?”

A team of guards was patrolling the garden, and one of them looked at the dark surroundings and chatted with his companions.

heard.

Someone immediately replied: “It is certain to rebuild the ancestral house. I heard that the feng shui of the Zhou family’s ancestral house is very good. The Zhou family can make a fortune entirely by the feng shui of the ancestral house. Otherwise, the master would not be so angry because the ancestral house was burned down.”

“Hey, the people in the yamen are bold enough to burn down the ancestral house without saying a word.”

“It wasn’t someone from the Yamen who ordered the fire. I heard that it was someone from the Zhenmo Division. If it was just a person from the Yamen, with the master’s connections, how could there be no news in advance.”

“I see–”

Several people were talking.

As a big family, the Zhou family also has some strength in Jincheng.

The matter of the ancestral house is no trivial matter. If it is someone from the yamen, they will definitely notify it in advance, but if it is someone from the town magic department, it will be another matter.

suddenly.

Someone said: “You said, has the evil spirit at the ancestral house really been eradicated?”

“That’s for sure. The Yamen speaks in person, how can it be fake.”

The other person shook his head.

Yamen’s words, the credibility is still very high.

The words fall.

With the help of the firelight, You Nuyuan looked at the shadow of the rockery not far in front of her, as if something was squirming, and she was immediately shocked.

“Look, is there something there?”

Hearing this, several other nursing homes were also surprised.

When I looked in the direction the man pointed, my heart immediately dropped.

One person laughed and scolded: “Lao Lin, have you been to Wanhualou a lot, and now your eyes are dim, there is nothing, it’s clearly just a shadow.”

“That’s right, Lao Lin, you must be dazzled.”

Hearing what other people said, Lao Lin rubbed his eyes, and when he looked in the direction of the rockery, there was indeed only the shadow of the rockery, and there was nothing else.

Take it easy.

Lao Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “I misread it. When the wages are paid tomorrow, I will invite you all to drink at Wanhualou.”

“Just drinking?”

“I can’t afford anything else. At most, one month’s salary is to invite you to a drink. If you think about it, there is nothing you can do.”

Several people laughed and chatted, and the atmosphere eased a lot.

When he passed the rockery, Lao Lin couldn’t help but take another look.

Suddenly.

Suddenly, a pale palm stretched out from the black shadow on the ground, pulling him directly into the darkness.

“what–”

The torch fell to the ground, and Lao Lin’s figure disappeared.

Several nursing homes heard the scream, their faces turned pale, and they fled in a hurry without even thinking about it.

——

the next day.

Shen Changqing finished meditating all night, and just when he was about to call someone to fetch water for himself, there was a knock on the door.

open the door.

Standing outside is Zhongchi.

Turning sideways, Zhong Chi walked in, and Shen Changqing closed the door again.

“problem occurs!”

As soon as Zhongchi entered the room, he said straight to the point.

problem occurs! ?

Shen Changqing’s expression froze, and he asked in a deep voice, “What happened?”

“Overnight, all the people of the Zhou family were wiped out. When they were discovered, the huge Zhou family was sucked to death. Besides, the eldest Zhou family, Zhou Qin, disappeared.”

Zhongchi spoke at a very fast pace and said what happened.

The Zhou family is destroyed!

Miss Zhou is missing!

The two news completely exceeded Shen Changqing’s expectations.

moment.

He thought of something, looked at Zhong Chi and asked, “Is it related to the killing of the demon in the Zhou family’s ancestral home yesterday?”

“It’s possible, but not certain.”

“How many people are Xu Yi, what’s the situation now?”

Shen Changqing thought of Xu Yi and the others who had done it. If the Zhou family was wiped out, then Xu Yi and others who had done it might have some surprises.

“That’s my second message.”

Zhong Chi’s face was ugly.

“As early as yesterday, they left Jincheng and went back to the Zhenmo Division to resume their lives, but according to the report from the Tianchawei, all four of them have disappeared. I suspect that they may also have died in the hands of the evil spirits.”

Missing.

does not mean death.

But missing at this juncture is almost the same as dying.

“I’ll go to Zhou’s house to see the situation.”

——

Zhou family.

Now surrounded by a large number of yamen.

Outside the Zhou family, many people stopped to watch, and the expressions on everyone’s faces were different, but without exception, there was a hint of fear in the expressions on everyone’s faces. .

Obviously.

The fact that the Zhou family was wiped out was not a small shock to them.

“This place has been blocked, and no one can come in without an adult hand.”

As soon as Shen Changqing came to Zhou’s house, he was directly stopped by the yamen guarding the door of Zhou’s house.

See here.

He directly took out the token of the Town Demon Division.

“I’m the person from the Town Demon Division!”

“The Town Demon Division!”

The yamen looked horrified, glanced at the token in Shen Changqing’s hand, and his attitude changed 180 degrees.

“Sir, please wait here for a while, and I will report to you immediately!”

After he finished speaking, he gestured to another yamen with his eyes, and hurried towards the Zhou family.

Less than a stick of incense time.

A middle-aged man wearing a black gauze and an official uniform came out in a hurry, and behind him were the yamen who followed the report, and the Liu Zhaotou.

“Xiaoguan Nie Xu, dare to ask who is the Lord of the Town Demon Division?”

While speaking, he looked Shen Changqing up and down.

The other party is dressed in plain clothes, but there is an aura about him that can’t be ignored.

Shen Changqing showed the token again: “I’m Shen Changqing, the envoy of Huangjie’s demon slayer, I’ve seen Lord Nie!”

see token.

Hearing Shen Changqing’s words again, Nie Xu’s pupils shrank suddenly, and his face was filled with a warm smile.

“It turned out to be Lord Shen!”

He had never heard of Shen Changqing’s name, but the five words Huangjie slayer meant that the other party was an official slayer.

Any official slayer.

They are all rare powerhouses in the arena.

Now that the Zhou family has been destroyed, it is undoubtedly a good thing to have a yellow-ranked demon slayer.

but–

In addition to the surprise, Nie Xu also had some doubts in his heart.

That is why Shen Changqing came. If it was for the Zhou family’s annihilation, it would be a bit incredible.

After all, this is the Great Wilderness Mansion, which is far from the capital of the country.

No matter how fast the news is passed, it is impossible to leave the Great Wilderness Mansion when the Zhou family is destroyed, let alone someone from the Demon Suppression Division.

When Nie Xu hesitated, Shen Changqing was also looking at the person in front of him.

For the magistrate of Jincheng.

He also got some relevant information from Tianchawei, and understood that the other party was Jincheng Juren. Later, he returned to Jincheng and was awarded the position of magistrate. He has been in office for two or three years.

When Nie Xu was an official.

Although there are no major political achievements, it also guarantees the stability of Jincheng. The work is considered to be quite satisfactory, and no major faults can be picked up.

“I heard the news that the Zhou family was destroyed, so I came here as soon as possible. I didn’t expect Master Nie to be one step ahead and blocked the Zhou family so quickly.”

Shen Changqing smiled lightly and bowed politely to Nie Xu.

See here.

A wry smile appeared on Nie Xu’s face: “Sir Shen doesn’t know, but Jincheng was plagued by evil spirits a few days ago, and after finally waiting for the evil spirits in the Zhou family’s ancestral house to be destroyed, I originally thought that I could live in peace for a while.

Unexpectedly, in less than a day, the Zhou family was wiped out.

As Jincheng’s parental official, this official is now devastated by this matter. ”

Speaking of which.

He paused, the sadness on his face subsided a little.

“But now that Lord Shen is here, this official believes that the Zhou family’s annihilation will not be a big problem.”

Shen Changqing’s expression remained unchanged for Nie Xu’s flattery.

His eyes swept over Nie Xu, then Liu Zoutou and other yamen behind him, and finally landed at the gate of Zhou’s house.

“I want to see the specific situation of the Zhou family.”

“No problem, Lord Shen, please come in.”

Nie Xu did not hesitate, and simply stepped aside.

Shen Changqing stepped in.

When he entered, Nie Xu looked at the yamen next to him: “Continue to strictly guard, no one is allowed to enter, and report to this officer as soon as possible in case of emergencies.”

“Understandable!”

Several yamen took orders.

Nie Xu nodded and took Liu Chatou to catch up with Shen Changqing.

“Master Nie.”

“The lower official is here, what are your orders from Lord Shen?”

Nie Xu’s posture was very low.

no way.

Now that the Zhou family is destroyed, there is almost no doubt that the evil spirits are causing disaster. The person in front of him is an official demon slayer. No matter in terms of strength or status, he is higher than his own small county magistrate of Jincheng.

Even the demon slayers of the Demon Suppression Division have no rank.

But the word Zhen Mosi alone can represent many things.

Shen Changqing said, “Since when did Lord Nie discover that the Zhou family was destroyed?”

“Today at 90, the people who brought vegetables and meat to the Zhou family as usual came to the door, knocked on the door for a long time and no one responded. Later, I was worried that the meat would go bad after a long time, so I climbed the wall without authorization and entered the Zhou family, wanting to check the situation.

At this sight, he found the dead Zhou family, and then he immediately went to the yamen to report to the official.

When this official and others got the news, they brought people over to investigate. After arriving, they found out that it was not as simple as the death of one or two people in the Zhou family, but all of them were wiped out. ”

Nie Xu’s voice trembled slightly, and Shen Changqing could hear the anger in it.

“Are all the Zhou family dead?”

“After investigation, Zhou Qin, the eldest miss of the Zhou family, did not know what to do, and all the rest died here.”

Nie Xu replied truthfully.

Shen Changqing nodded, what the other party said was the same as the news Tianchawei gave.

soon.

The three came to the place where the corpse was placed.
