Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 45 Strange Handwriting
Hearing what the old man said, Lin Ji was not in a hurry to ask, but looked at Guo Yi with a smile.

"Old Guo, did you just listen to what this old man said?"

"Stop laughing at me, hurry up and ask questions." Guo Yi was speechless.

Lin Ji nodded, looked at the old man, and asked, "What is the origin of this river god?"

The old man raised his head cautiously, looked at Lin Ji's eyes, then quickly lowered his head, and said with a little restraint: "Returning to the adults, the villain is from Lianghe County, because Lianghe County is haunted by ghosts, so he fled to Qingyang Come to the county."

"I'll let you talk about the river god." Lin Ji interrupted impatiently.

"Yes, that's it." The old man nodded quickly, "Lianghe County got its name because of its proximity to Lianghe River. The river god came last year. I remember that the situation in Lianghe County was like Qingyang County at that time. Heavy rain It has been falling continuously for half a month, and the flood is about to submerge the county town, and even Liangcheng has come."

"Get to the point!" Lin Ji was quite speechless, what's the matter with this old man.

"Just before the flood came, words appeared on the wall of the county government office, claiming to be the God of Lianghe River, saying that the rain would be stopped only by the girl who had not left the cabinet as a sacrifice."

"And then?" Lin Ji asked, "The demon catchers in your county don't care? Could it be true that they sacrificed a girl to that goddamn river god?"

"The headhunters in the county said that the river god is so powerful that they can't deal with it. Since the flood can be stopped with one life, there is no need to go to war." The old man said.

Hearing this, Lin Ji and Guo Yi looked at each other, each seeing the disbelief in the other's eyes.

"Even if this kind of thing can't be solved, someone will come forward to solve it if it is reported to the police. The demon catchers in your county are really good."

Lin Ji thought for a long time, but in the end he just sighed lightly and didn't say anything else.

Headhunters from all over the country have to go to the capital to report on their work every three years. What they are afraid of is this kind of big incidents that are reduced to small and passive sabotage.

But even so, similar things are repeatedly banned.

"Okay, get up. Lianghe is far away from Qingyang County, and the flood can't get through."

Lin Ji waved the old man away, and yawned sleepily.

"I'll go back and have a rest. I'm tired from getting up too early in the morning. Go ahead."

After speaking, Lin Ji got up and prepared to go back to the room.

But at this moment, Zhong Xiaoyan suddenly grabbed his sleeve.

"What about the River God? You are a headhunter. Give me an explanation."

Zhong Xiaoyan dissatisfied: "Could it be possible to let it go? What if the rain is really caused by monsters?"

"Yes it is."

Lin Ji curled his lips and said, "We are tens of miles away from the Liang River, and the embankment by the river was built only the year before last. Let alone half a month, even if it takes a full month, the flood will not reach us."

Hearing this, Zhong Xiaoyan's face turned red, and her eyes were full of anger towards Lin Ji.

"How can you do this? Even if there is no flood, what will happen to the food grown by the common people? There are obviously monsters at work. What is the difference between your attitude and the headhunters in Lianghe County? Could it be that when the flood is approaching, you Go find innocent girls and throw them into the river to quell the disaster?"

"Let's talk about it later." Lin Ji didn't have the heart to quarrel with Zhong Xiaoyan, who was full of sense of justice, and walked to his room after speaking.

If the head catcher really listens to the wind and the rain, and if he hears there are no monsters and rushes to get rid of the monsters, he will be too busy all year round.

Among other things, on the Qinghua Mountain outside Qingyang County, there are countless monsters of all kinds.

Qinghua Mountain may not be farther than Lianghe. Could it be that Lin Ji has to go to the mountain to wipe out all the monsters?

in the courtyard.

Zhong Xiaoyan folded her hands on her chest, so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time.

"Xiaoyan, you don't have to worry about this matter."

Guo Yi saw that the new colleague seemed to be really angry, and persuaded him: "If the monster in the Liang River is really powerful, there is no need to make clouds and rain. Such unnecessary actions can only show that the monster is just a bluff. That's all. Therefore, it is understandable that Lin Butou didn't take it seriously."

"How could it be a bluff?" Zhong Xiaoyan objected, "Anyway, he doesn't care about this matter, I'll take care of it!"

"Miss." Ling'er was quite helpless and didn't know how to persuade her.

"Ling'er, let's go, go back!" Zhong Xiaoyan got up and walked out the door, "I have to let that damn guy see that when I become a demon catcher, I should kill demons and protect the people, instead of being passive and sabotage."

After finishing speaking, Zhong Xiaoyan waited for Ling'er, who repeatedly apologized to everyone, to leave.

Seeing this, Guo Yi felt a little helpless. He looked at Lu Cong, but saw that Lu Cong didn't listen to anything outside the window at all. As Lin Ji's number one follower, he naturally followed Lin Ji's lead.

"Husband, that girl." Mrs. Guo wanted to say something else.

Guo Yi shook his head and said, "No matter what, let's go back."

evening.

Lin Ji was woken up by Song Er's knock on the door.

He yawned for a long time, and with a bit of tiredness that hadn't faded away, he slowly opened the courtyard door.

"What's the matter?"

"Boss, go to the yamen to have a look."

Song Er's face was a little ugly, and he said: "The thing about the river god that the old man said should be true!"

Lin Ji woke up all of a sudden, frowned slightly, didn't bother to change clothes, and hurried out with Song Er.

"what happened?"

"The handwriting of the river god appeared on the gate of our county government office, just like what the old man said!"

Hearing this, Lin Ji knew that if he asked Song Er again, he might not be able to find out why, so he suddenly quickened his pace.

Soon, the two arrived at the Qingyang County Government Office.

At this time, many people who heard about the incident and came to see the excitement gathered outside the yamen.

After Lin Ji dismissed the people who had nothing to do in the rain with a dark face, he arrived at the gate of the yamen.

Guo Yi has already arrived, and is carefully looking at the handwriting on the door.

'Put the three young girls into the Liang River in exchange for good weather in Qingyang County. '

The writing on the door was bright red, and there was a faint fishy smell coming out.

Lin Ji looked at Guo Yi: "How to say?"

"It's blood, I don't know how it came out."

Lin Ji casually grabbed the janitor who was pale with fright.

"When did this handwriting appear?"

"I don't know, I've been at the door all the time!"

The yamen servant was so frightened that he wobbled a little, and said with a trembling voice, "It's just a matter of looking back, and these words appeared."

Hearing this explanation, Lin Ji was a little confused for a while.

Letting go of the yamen servant, Lin Ji approached the gate, carefully studying the large characters on the gate.

At this moment, Lu Cong also arrived with inquiries.

He didn't know what was going on, and just shrugged his nose when he arrived.

"Who used chicken blood to write on the gate? Isn't this a waste?" Lu Cong said casually.

"Chicken blood?" Lin Ji turned his head.

"Well, the chicken blood vermicelli soup I ate in the morning, this taste can't be wrong!"

Lu Cong said with a smile: "You know me well, apart from our arm strength, our nose is good enough."
