I have a book of ghosts and gods

Chapter 145 Evil Evil (Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass)

Yisansi also read the case file, thought about it and said: "It's strange, I really didn't remember it."

He thought for a while and said: "My lord, when I was in the rivers and lakes, I also knew a few brothers from Cixi County. Do you want me to check?"

Jiang Zhou nodded: "You run as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Yisansi took the order and left in a hurry.

His way was really wild, and he didn't keep Jiang Zhou waiting long before he brought back the news.

"My lord, I found out. This Chang Si is indeed Cixi County, but this is only recorded in the county household registration register. According to the investigation by my subordinates, Chang Si once claimed to be from Gu Village, the son of an ordinary farmer."

"However, I suddenly entered the county a few years ago and got a job as a soldier."

Jiang Zhou wondered, "Self-proclaimed?"

Yisansi said: "That's right, my subordinates have personally checked it out. The birth place listed on the roster is simply another family that has lived in it for decades."

"So, Chang Si's household registration is all fake, just a doorman, why do you forge your household registration for him?"

Jiang Zhou was talking to himself, and he didn't expect Yisansi to answer him.

He asked again: "Gu Village, is it in Cixi County?"

"Yes, it is indeed under the jurisdiction of Cixi County."

Yisansi nodded and said, and immediately showed some doubts:

"When my subordinates went to investigate, I learned that although this Gu village is located in the wilderness of Cixi, it is very remote, but it was also a famous place decades ago."

"Because the people in the village can brew a kind of green grain wine, which is often shipped to Cixi County in large quantities for sale,"

"It is very famous in the local area, even the nearby counties are also famous, and merchants often come to purchase."

"But I don't know since when, people from Gucun haven't come out to sell alcohol,"

"Many merchants went to the village to ask for green grain wine, but they couldn't find any results. Even those merchants have never seen each other again."

"Over time, this green grain wine disappeared along with the people of Gu Village."

Yisansi said suspiciously: "The strange thing is, the subordinates have questioned the people of Cixi, but no one knows about this village."

"If it weren't for the few brothers under him who are quite familiar in the local area, it would be difficult to even find someone who knows this name."

"But the strange thing is that no one knows exactly where that Gu village is. Even the name is only said to be vaguely known from the population of the older generation."

There was some strangeness in Jiang Zhou's eyes, and he frowned and said, "Ordinary people don't know, so don't the yamen of Cixi's government also know?"

"Have you checked the local county chronicles?"

Yisansi said: "This is another place that my subordinates find strange. There is no record in the Cixi county annals."

"My subordinate once asked the clerk in the yamen, but he said that there is no such place."

"This matter is quite weird. Obviously that village exists, but almost everyone says they don't know, it's like... like..."

Yi Sansi thought hard, but couldn't think of a suitable description.

Jiang Zhou turned around and took a few steps, thinking: "A village that clearly existed and was once famous has been erased suddenly..."

Yisansi clapped his hands violently, and said excitedly: "Yes! It was erased! Someone erased this village from Cixi County!"

"Could it be some peerless monster that wiped out Gucun?"

Jiang Zhou couldn't help being speechless.

Shaking his head, he said, "It's easy to destroy Gucun, but can it also be erased from people's memory?"

Yisansi thought seriously and said, "If the upper third rank exists, it's not impossible."

"..."

Well, he almost forgot that there was such a thing here.

It is not impossible to erase a village from a literal point of view, and it can even be erased from people's memory.

but……

If such an existence really made a move, it would be basically impossible to easily leave a loophole, so that Yi Sansi would find someone who knew Gu Village after a trip.

There is no need to keep Chang Si alive.

Obviously, there is something secret hidden in this valley village.

A doorman is also a decent status for ordinary people, and it is not something that can be taken casually.

Chang Si Neng, who was the son of a farmer in Gu Village, suddenly came to Cixi County and became a guard. I am afraid that it has something to do with Gu Village's secrets.

Jiang Zhou couldn't help but said, "Tell me, is there any reason for someone to wipe out a whole village?"

Yisansi really blurted out without thinking: "Of course I want to cover up some secret, and this secret is not small, it will kill, many people's lives."

Jiang Zhou thought for a while, and said to Yi Sansi: "Go and find me the county annals and maps of Cixi County, as well as the travel routes between the villages and towns in the county..."

He paused and emphasized: "What I want is not drawn by the county geologists, but from the mouths of ordinary people. They live and do business on weekdays. As long as they go out, they will take whatever road."

"Even if it's weddings and funerals in the countryside, visiting relatives and friends, which trails and wild trails to take, as long as I can find and inquire about it, I will find it. Can it be done?"

Yisansi was at a loss, but after thinking about it, he said: "It should be no problem, but although Cixi County is not big, there are dozens of villages and towns, large and small. I'm afraid it will take two days."

Jiang Zhou nodded and said: "It's okay, you try to find it, hold my warrant, and there are not enough manpower, so let the brothers come back to help you first."

"Yes, then this subordinate will investigate now!"

"Go."

Jiang Zhou waved.

He did this because he believed that even if it was time, it would not be so easy to completely erase a place that already existed.

No matter how meticulous the artificial means are, there are always omissions.

As long as that village is not a paradise isolated from the world, the social behavior it has produced will always leave some indelible clues.

The trajectory of large-scale group activities is even less likely to be completely erased.

It was exactly as he expected.

It took less than two days for B[-] to carry back a box of documents.

Most of them are the dictation of ordinary people recorded temporarily.

This is a big project. Jiang Zhou has been successful in practice and his mind is very clear, and it took a lot of work to finish it.

Also got the desired result.

Jiang Zhou gathered all the information about the lives of the local people from the materials at hand.

Such as business, hunting, woodcutters, relatives and friends, weddings and funerals, etc., all traces of activities have been found out and drawn according to the map.

Several of the road maps he drew happened to be between two towns.

There are many tracks between the two towns. After all, it is a rural place, so they are mainly concentrated near the post road.

But there is a route, far away from the post road, the location is very remote.

But the route is used extremely frequently.

People who pass this road are visiting relatives, doing business, marrying relatives, in short, there are quite a few.

It is a shortcut that only the local people in the two towns know.

But on the map of the county annals, there is a place that originally marked a cliff.

This "cliff" is just across this route.

Forget about the others, after all, it is a shortcut, and it is possible to be difficult.

But you can't carry the sedan chair to climb the mountain, can you?

"B[-], call people!"

Jiang Zhou didn't delay, immediately summoned his men and rushed to that "cliff".

The road to Cixi County is not too short, but they rode fast and found the place in less than half a day.

Sure enough, there were no cliffs there at all.

There is only one forest.

There is a road that is obviously stepped on by someone all the year round.

This is probably the shortcut.

A group of more than a dozen people tied the horses outside the forest, leaving two sword-wielding men to guard them, and then walked into it.

Jiang Zhou took his men for a mile in the forest and found nothing unusual.

Just as he was about to continue to follow the road, he suddenly stopped and looked in one direction in the forest.

There is faint purple lingering in the eyes.

In a moment, there was a flash of deep surprise.

What a heavy evil spirit!
