Strengthening starts from the county magistrate

Chapter 4 Unexpectedly under the rain!
The rain in Fengjiang has not stopped, and the bustling city has just begun.

yamen gate,
Liu Changfeng looked complicated.

Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble, and by the way, test whether the Zongmen's treasure of chance was taken away by their Dali government.

But before he could do anything, he was manipulated by others with a few words.

This is different from what was expected. When did the county magistrate of Fengjiang become so wise?

Didn't the rumors say that he was a cowardly dog ​​official?
But the problem is, the wisp of official power that was released just now can never be faked.

Although weak, but the momentum and feeling at that moment, it is not an exaggeration to say that he was on the "Hunting County List" as the county magistrate of Fengjiang.

Liu Changfeng withdrew his gaze, his heart full of doubts.

What the hell is this Dali dynasty doing?

Is it really sending a cannon fodder, or is there another purpose?
...

[Map: The street in front of Fuyamen has been lit up! 】

now,

Shen Mu has followed Cao Zhengxiang out of the county government office.

The map of Fengjiang City in his mind quickly lit up a part, which was the central street in front of him.

Teahouses, restaurants, shops and stalls, everything on the street is clearly marked on the map.

Shen Mu glanced briefly, it seemed that there was nothing special, and he didn't care.

But when he inadvertently glanced at the crowd of onlookers outside, one message after another was displayed in front of him.

[Liu Yuan, happiness index: 3%]

【Zeng Bo, happiness index: 2%】

[Li Xinlong, happiness index: -1%]

【Guo Jun...8%】

【…5%】

"This..." Shen Mu was dumbfounded.

Densely packed information strips.

He knew that anyone with a [happiness index] displayed above their heads should be a native of Fengjiang.

It's just that there isn't even a happiness index over '10', what's the matter?Some even have negative numbers!
Is the life of the people in Fengjiang so hard?Is it too hot?

While thinking, he glanced sideways at Cao Zhengxiang.

【Master Cao, happiness index: 90%】

"Damn!" Shen Mu was shocked.

It was 89 yesterday, but today it is 90...

...

...

West of the city, Longjing Lane.

Passing through the noisy central street, there are rows of chaotic old houses.

Shen Mu has truly experienced what a real poverty-stricken county is.

This alley is very deep, and the stone brick pavement on the road is uneven, and in some places there is even no one. In rainy days, the mud protrudes from the ground, and it is extremely difficult even to walk.

It is difficult for Shen Mu to understand what these monks think, why can't they find an inn to live in?

If you insist on looking for such corners, you will die without knowing how.

"Have you arrived yet?" Shen Mu asked.

Cao Zhengxiang tiptoed to avoid the mud pit, and pointed to the front: "My lord, we are almost there, after passing the Suolongjing, we will be right behind."

When Shen Mu heard the words, he saw that there was indeed a large well in front of it, surrounded by a rusty iron chain, which was already dilapidated and dry.

"Suo Longjing, there is really a dragon underneath, right?" Shen Mu asked.

Cao Zhengxiang smiled helplessly: "It's all just folk rumors. If there were a dragon, then Fengjiang County would not be the current Fengjiang County. It's probably because the predecessors wanted to give Xiang Nong a nice name, so it was just an excuse. Longjing Xiang, tsk tsk, it's a good one, but my lord, look around, is there a trace of a lock dragon?"

Shen Mu shrugged his shoulders, what he said was true.

These rows of old houses are really dilapidated. After looking at ten houses, at least eight have leaks from the roofs. They really don't feel tall at all.

After passing Suolongjing, Shen Mu finally came to the crime scene.

This is a single-family small house, the push door is a small courtyard, there is only one room inside, it should be temporarily rented by Wuliangshan disciples.

Liu Changfeng was waiting inside early, and he came here ahead of time by using Taoism and supernatural powers.

Shen Mu wanted to hitch a ride at first, but he didn't have the nerve to ask.

"The body is here, and the surrounding things have not been touched. By the way, I would like to remind you that the murderer is not weaker than me. If you are also killed, we Wuliang Mountain will not be responsible."

Liu Changfeng said lightly.

Up to now, he has completely given up on Da Li's side. Including the people who watched the fun outside, one counts as one. No one thinks that Shen Mu can find out anything.

In fact, Shen Mu is simply an insignificant person for these people hiding in the dark who came this time.

There are many people who want to take the opportunity to get the treasure of chance, and some even started investigation earlier than Wuliangshan, because once the murderer is found, if he can kill the other party, the chance will naturally come to him.

It's just that so many days have passed, and more and more people have come to Fengjiang City, which proves that no one has been able to find the murderer.

Shen Mu didn't care what Liu Changfeng said, but he hoped that the murderer would kill him, which would save a lot of trouble: "Don't worry, life and death are up to you, I won't be like you, find outsiders to make trouble when my disciple dies."

"Hmph, talking is meaningless." Liu Changfeng sneered, ignored it, turned around and left with his disciples.

at this time,

Only Shen Mu and Cao Zhengxiang were left in the yard.

The door of the house in front of him was ajar, looking through the crack of the door, it was pitch black inside.

The rain seemed to be getting heavier, Shen Mu hurried forward, pushed the door open and entered.

The next moment, with the light from outside, he could clearly see the furnishings in the room.

There is an old broken painting hanging on the wall of the hall, and there are beds, tables and chairs on both sides, but there is nothing else.

There were traces of fighting in the house, and there was a shocking crack on the ground, as if it had been split by something.

The murderer is a sword cultivator?

Shen Mu thought and walked forward.

The corpse covered with a white cloth was parked beside the crack.

For the time being, there is no assistant in the yamen, and he can only do this kind of thing by himself.

Lifting the white cloth, Shen Mu saw the Wuliangshan disciple who had been killed.

At this time, there was a yellow paper talisman on his forehead, shining with a faint halo. Shen Mu didn't understand it very well, but he guessed that it should be some kind of talisman method for preserving the body.

"There are sword marks on the ground, but there are no marks on the body of the deceased. It's a bit strange..."

Shen Mu whispered, reached out and untied the dead man's clothes, then he was dumbfounded, until now, he didn't see the real fatal injury.

In the chest of the deceased, a hole the size of a fist pierced through the heart!

Shen Mu only felt his scalp go numb, and he said, "Master Cao, what do you think of this fatal injury?"

After a while, Cao Zhengxiang's indifferent voice came from behind.

"My lord, I'm afraid you won't be able to see anything just for a moment, why don't you bring the body back and examine it carefully."

"Okay, that's the only way to go."

Carry the body onto the carriage outside the house.

Shen Mu and Cao Zhengxiang returned by car, the bumps along the way made people feel irritable.

I don't know how long the carriage ran.

I just felt that the outside was overcast, the rain seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and the inside of the car was almost so dark that there were almost no people to be seen.

Shen Mu lifted the curtain to see if he had seen it.

It's just that when he saw the scene outside, he froze on the spot!
The surrounding scene is not the streets of the county seat, but a gloomy peach forest swaying in the dark wind and rain.

"Master! Where is this? This is not the way back!"

For a long time, no one responded.

Shen Mu didn't turn his head back, he only felt the chill rushing up from his whole body like falling into an ice cave, his hair was terrified!

suddenly!

He thought something was wrong.

When I came, I walked and didn't call for a carriage.

So, where is this carriage from?
