Chapter 100 County government

"My boss, I know you have a lot of questions to ask, but it should be said that it's not convenient now. There are too many right and wrong tonight. It's better to go there first." Zhang Shu directly said what Wu Song was thinking.

Wu Song nodded and said, "Yes, it's true. I don't know what's going on with the county government, and the others in the Ximen Pharmacy don't know if they have run away."

"Oh, yes, my owner, I want to tell you that the words I taught you how to use the ring just now can't be heard by others." Zhang Shu muttered in a low voice, accompanied by a strange smile.

"Oh?" Wu Song was very surprised and then thought that when Zhang Shu pressed his right shoulder just now, he seemed to feel a kind of spiritual communication. Maybe it was that the spirit was connected with Zhang Shu at that time. No wonder when the conversation just now, he felt that Zhang Shu's mouth seemed to be wrong. I think he was talking when he communicated with me. Other things to hide people's eyes and ears. Wu Panxia consciously touched his right shoulder.

"The owner guessed right, that's when. These darts can only see and hear you defeat the living corpses with great power, and at the same time use great magic power to command the corpses to let them leave. Such legendary deeds will spread all over Yanggu tomorrow. Zhang Shu's narrative is plain with power.

At this point, Wu Song suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had just left those living bodies and led such a team, no matter how many good hands he faced in the capital, he would be fearless.

"Liu Lin, where is my brother?" At this time, Wu Song had to ask where Wu University was going.

Liu Lin's face tightened, and then said, "Dou, the shopkeeper did come with us, but there was a period of chaos after entering the door, and I never saw him again."

Wu Song's heart turned over. Did something happen to his brother again? On second thought, this possibility is not great. Whether it is Li Wu's side or Qi's side, they all think that they have a good chance of winning, and there is no need to do this kind of secretly kidnapping Wu Da. Moreover, Wu Song has a good number of the terrain of his home. This house only has a front door and no back door. Unless Wu Da can climb up to the roof and climb over the wall, there is only one exit from the front door. After thinking about it over and over again, Wu Song felt that nothing should have happened to Wu Da and was still in the house.

Wu Song and Zhang Shu searched one room after another, and there was no sign of Wu Da. Finally, Wu Song suddenly patted his thigh and forgot a room. This room was originally a bedroom when the house was designed. Because Qi Si died suddenly there, it was a little unlucky. Usually, no one was willing to go there. Only the sundries that had been used for a long time would be piled up there. When Wu Er was searching, he forgot it as a matter of course.

When Erlang opened the door, he saw Wu squatting on the ground, as if he was playing with something in his hand. Wu Song suddenly relaxed when he saw his brother. Brother, why did you come here? Wu Song asked with some complaints.

"I can't help the fight in front of you. It will only cause trouble to appear there. So I walked around. Look, I found this." Wu Da showed Wu Song what was in his palm.

This is a red stone, half the size of a finger of Wu Song.

"You took it from this room. Why didn't I know there was this thing?" Wu Song was surprised that the cleaning of the room was carried out by him himself, and nothing would be missed.

"Maybe you don't believe it, Wu Song, when I just came in, this stone was suspended in the air with a little dark red light. That position is a little high. I need to jump to get there. Wu Da stretched his arm up and made a jump. This height is probably on Wu Song's forehead.

Wu Song searched for shadows related to this stone in his memory. All he could think of was the dead old man full of secrets, An Daoman, who seemed to have something similar in his home. In addition, Erlang vaguely felt that this thing had something to do with Qi Si. Maybe Qi Si appeared here, and more importantly, he wanted to seize the red stone. As Qi Si, who is stronger than ordinary living corpses, there will definitely be some differences. Maybe he will revisit the place of death and get some different experiences. Unfortunately, he failed.

"I don't know what this is." Wu Song waved his hand. He knows Wu Da very well. What Wu Da found will not be handed over easily. Besides, Wu Song really can't say what this red stone is. Just put it at his brother's.

There was a disappointed expression on Wu Da's face, and it seemed that he hoped that Wu Song could give him a definite answer. After this expression flashed, Wu Da put the stone in his arms. Wu Song, have you finished doing things outside?

"Well, it's basically over." It seems that Wu Da did not secretly observe things outside. He has been playing with stones all the time, which is also good. Otherwise, it will add a lot of fear.

After dealing with the matter of Wu Da, Wu Song knew that he had to go to the government.

"Zhang Shu, you go with me. Brother and Liu Lin can go back to Guihua Building, and there should be no more danger. The bodyguard in the courtyard, leave part of it to help clean up the body, and the others will come with me. Wu Song gave instructions.

Wu Song's mount was left in the distance, and now I don't know if I can find it. Moreover, no one else had a horse, so Erlang simply walked with everyone to the county government.

Wu Song's home is not far from the county government, and it doesn't take long to walk. After arriving at the county government, Erlang was very surprised. According to his guess, the county government should be similar to his own family, not to mention flying flesh and blood, but it had to be tense anyway. But the county government looks calm as usual from the outside, which is far from the imagined situation.

Erlang walked directly into the government office from the main door. The official looked at the door and looked extremely surprised: "You are back. We all think you have had an accident. Several waves of people came before, and they all said that you sent them. We still don't believe it."

"Have the people who went outside the city to work for Fourth Master Qi come back?" Wu Song is most concerned about this issue.

"No, none of them came back, which is also what we are worried about." The official looked worried, but Wu Song knew that if he died, these people would be fine. However, Phoenix and none of them came back. It seems that they really encountered something unexpected, and now they don't have time to think about them.

Wu Song did not say more or give the doorman a chance to inform, but rushed directly into the county government with everyone. Erlang ran to the class room without thinking about it. Everyone must be there.

Sure enough, the light in the class room was still on, and the figures inside shook, as if they were drinking and having fun. Wu Song opened the door calmly, and what he saw was the darts master and the official who pushed a glass on the wine table, but the two groups were happy.

"Head, you're here." The speaker is a single dart head. At this moment, the single dart head drank a lot of wine at first glance, his face was red, and his tone of voice was also different from that of the evening.

Wu Song was quite dissatisfied at the beginning. After all, he almost died several times outside, but these people were drinking and having fun here, which was too different from what they had encountered, and their hearts were really unbalanced. But on second thought, with the remaining physical strength, it is impossible to fight any more battles. Isn't this peaceful situation what you most want to see?

Thinking of this, Wu Song nodded and replied, "Come back, brothers, eat and drink."

At this time, an official raised his glass: "We are also drinking Fourth Master Qi's wedding wine. But we don't understand. At noon, we obviously watched you leave the city, but these brothers said that you didn't leave the city. Are you out? Where are those brothers who have left the city now?

Wu Song recognized him. The most similar person who pretended to be sick in the morning now doesn't look uncomfortable at all. This is clearly a stone to ask for the way, trying to find out how far the situation has developed. Yes, these officials are more refined than monkeys. Even if Li Wu is bought by real gold and silver, they will not easily show their position without confirming the victory of one party. Officially, the people sent by Wu Song to the county government office made these officials puzzled. They don't know who has the upper hand now, so they have never taken action and maintained this seemingly happy appearance.

"Oh, I was out of town, but I received some information, so I turned back. Those brothers will also come back after doing things for Fourth Master Qi, but there should be some mistakes and the time has been extended. Wu Song deliberately did not say what information he received, but looked around the crowd to hint at the officials: I know what you are thinking. If you want the anti-water braid in my hand, it's better to be honest.

Sure enough, the official's drunkenness seemed to wake up immediately: "What's the matter? Under your order, our brothers will go through fire and water." The official put the wine glass on the table, showing a righteous look.

Almost at the same time, all other officials made the same action.

"You can say it. Our brothers are all vowing to follow them to the death."

"Go to the water, go to the fire!"

This is still a test. If Wu Song lacks confidence, he will recruit these people, which will be the bosom of these officials. When they face Li Wu and others directly, they will immediately distinguish who is more dominant in the confrontation, so as to choose their position. Erlang won't let them go.

Li Wu has been killed, and Wu Song thought that it is of little significance to go to the Ximen Pharmacy. If the remnants are still there, there will inevitably be a war, but now his own situation can't be fought. If he is not there, the West Street is full of merchants and leading everyone late at night, which really has a bad impact. Why don't it be like this? Wu Song felt very tired.

No, I can't do this. There is another key person. How can I forget? That's the county magistrate in the cell. I don't know how he is now.

"Dear accompanying darts, you have worked hard all night. Let's eat and drink here." Wu Song said to the other darts behind him.

Those people naturally were rude and squeezed into the class room. There were many darts of the same darts bureau in the class room, so the entry of these people did not seem cold. Erlang understands that after a few glasses of wine, the people accompanying him will tell the story of his performance just now. I guess he can scare the official who is sitting.

Wu Song pulled Zhang Shu's shoulder and then pulled out of the house. Officials usually do not participate in drinking and having fun, and his departure does not seem unnatural.

"Dear owner, where are we going?" Zhang Shu did not feel surprised, but seemed to feel that Wu Song's action was too slow.

"I'm going to see the Yanggu County Magistrate in the cell." Wu Song did not hide it, but directly said his purpose.

"Yanggu County magistrate in the cell? So, I think so. What happened on the eighth night of August is too strange. Two people who look the same call themselves county magistrates. How can they be sure that the newcomers are fake? Is it just because of the dying cry of the man named An Daoman? It seems that this is a trick. But what does what happened tonight have to do with the Yanggu County magistrate? Zhang Shu only thought a little and revealed Wu Song's card.

This makes Wu Song more worried that what he did is actually not smart. Everything is based on Phoenix's faceless body, high-level change, and An Dao's dying identification and his own determined attitude. But if you keep thinking in detail with the passage of time, it is still easy to find out the flaws. You can't let the real county magistrate wait until autumn, and it must be solved as soon as possible.

"He has a lot to do with what happened tonight." Wu Song raised his right hand, pointed to the ring on his middle finger and said, "This ring was obtained from the audience of Yanggu County magistrate."

Zhang Shu's face became gloomy: "If so, he must be a key figure. If the owner wants to completely master the meteorite ring, he must kill him."

Wu Song did not say much, but walked in the night. He didn't look back, but he knew that Zhang Shu was behind him when he heard the footsteps. Even if he opened the road in front of him, Wu Er could still notice that every time Zhang Shu made a turn, he would take a small step in the opposite direction. The walking rhythm of this step is different from other footsteps, so it is easy to distinguish.

There are two cells in Yanggu County, one called the outer prison and the other called the inner prison. Originally, this inner prison did not exist, but because of the bad world, the jailers always wanted to make two strokes. The outer prison is a little far from the county government office, which is very inconvenient to manage. As long as the jailer's words, the county government office can't do anything about them. In this way, some important prisoners were released by the jailer because of the high price provided by their cronies, and then arbitrarily arrested a person from the outside and killed him, saying that the prisoner died in an accident and was disfigured for uncontrollable reasons.

Similar things have happened many times. Ordinary prisoners and county magistrates can turn a blind eye, but important prisoners, especially death row prisoners, have to be questioned, and this kind of disfigured body cannot be crossed. However, the responsibility of tracing above will never be implemented on the jailer and will only come to trouble with the county government office. This unreasonable system makes the county government office helpless.

Under the pressure of the situation, the inner prison came into being. As the name implies, it is the internal cell of the county government. The location is also adjacent to the county government. The area is not large, and there are also some prisoners who must not go wrong, including the real Yanggu county magistrate.

When Wu Song first became the head of the capital, he still introduced these words to him by Qi Si. At that time, Erlang did not think so and felt that it was purely an extra move by the officials to spend money. Until now, he understood the importance of the inner prison. Among other things, if the county magistrate is imprisoned in the outer prison, although he is not unable to enter, It will undoubtedly be a lot of effort. The significance of the inner prison may not only be as high-sounding as Qi Sitong said, but also the reason why it is avoided by everyone is that the county government also wants to divide some oil and water from the prisoners within its control.

Standing in front of the inner prison, Wu Song suddenly felt desperate. When he was in Qinghe County, whenever he heard that someone was taking care of people's lives in the cell, he was indignant. He even despised the official's behavior and often took a few bites. Unexpectedly, I would do such a thing today. Although it is so reasonable for me to get rid of the county magistrate, once this matter is known to the people of Yanggu, there is no doubt that I will become the object of spitting by many people.

Wu Er sighed and walked into the inner prison. The officials in the prison all come from the county government office, but the places where they are in charge are different. Naturally, they know Wu Song.

"All heads. Are you here? The official was very respectful and gave a salute.

Wu Song waved his hand: "There is something important to interrogate the fake county magistrate. It's very secret that you want to talk about later. You should take good care of the wind outside and don't let others in." Wu Song made azhu, but his footsteps did not stop.

"I understand. Dutou... Is this?" The official's words were very hesitant.

Wu Song turned around and saw the official pointing to Zhang Shu, with a full face of doubts. Indeed, Zhang Shu was wearing only the clothes of the Guihua Building clerk. It seems inappropriate to follow him into the cell like this, but Zhang Shu knows a lot of secrets about the meteorite ring. If he is not there, the conversation with the county magistrate will not be very smooth.

"This is a secret newcomer. It's a matter of great importance. Don't say anything." Wu Song understands that there is no need to explain in detail for low-level officials such as guarding the cell. It is enough to give a reason for almost Zhang Shu to enter the cell.

The official waited for no longer to stop him. After Wu Er came in, he turned left and right and went straight to the Tianzi cell. The county magistrate was imprisoned there. In front of the cell, Wu Song stopped and looked at Zhang Shu.

"We don't have much time. What do you think I should ask? What's the question? Wu Song asked for Zhang Shu's opinion. If Zhang Shu knows something, there is no need to waste time on the county magistrate. The county magistrate is a ** person. Being in his cell for a long time will make others more suspicious about what happened on the eighth night of August.

"It's very simple, kill him. Then turn him into a living corpse with a meteorite ring and talk to him with the power of contract and command. This is the easiest way. Zhang Shu's face was cold, as if he was not talking about killing, but about the dishes of Guihua Building.

Wu Song nodded, and at the same time, he felt that his right hand was light and the weight of the soul in the ring disappeared. It seems that those living bodies have buried themselves and reached a contract.
