Chapter 67
"Originally, I wanted you to let you stay in the Exorcist Department, but there is really not enough manpower. What's more, the change of the demon forces in the east has completely attracted the attention of the higher-ups. Even the main force of the Black Xuan Army has been transferred there."

"Du Guangyao has also been transferred to the east, so I can't think about you for the time being."

Yi Cantian laughed.

"What mission is this time?" Zhou You asked directly.

After half a month in the Exorcist Department, he was also a little bored.

Could it be said that if he offended the Heixuan army, he would stay in the Department of Demon Elimination for the rest of his life?
Now that there is a task of eliminating demons, the next step is to let myself move my hands and feet.

"The nature of this task is a bit serious, you should take a look first." Yi Cantian returned to the topic and handed Zhou You a case file.

【Hang yourself】

Mission introduction: Five days ago, Zeng Feng, the county magistrate of Huai County, was found hanging himself in the backyard of the county government office. His internal organs were hollowed out, and his death was extremely strange.

Mission Difficulty: Samsung

The mission is coming: [-] contribution points.

Seeing the mission introduction, Zhou You also understood why Yi Cantian came here to find him.

The bizarre death of the county magistrate in the county government will definitely cause panic among the people in the county, and some vicious incident may happen at that time.

After all, even the county magistrate dared to kill directly, where else is safe in the county?
"Huai County is a large county in the west of Qingzhou, with a large population. Now that this catastrophic event has occurred, it has caused too much impact and made people panic. You have to rush there as soon as possible to kill the haunting monster."

"The newly appointed county magistrate is also leaving for Huai County, you should also pay attention to protect it."

"After all, we still don't know the reason why Zeng Feng provoked the evil spirit in this case. If the newly appointed magistrate goes to see the King of Hell within a few days, Huai County will be completely messed up."

Zhou You put away the file and said with a smile, "Don't worry, leave it to me."

"Then I wish you a smooth journey." Yi Cantian nodded.

After sending Yi Cantian away, Zhou You didn't talk nonsense, simply packed his luggage, carried the Black Star Bow on his back, and the Demon Slayer Saber on his waist, and rode away from the Demon Division on a steed.

All the way west.

A gloomy deep mountain forest.

There was no light at all, and visibility was extremely low.

rumbling~
Dark clouds weighed on the top of the sky, and there were dull thunderclaps, and pale lightning continued to tear the night sky.

The trees were all rattled by the strong wind, and the young saplings were bent directly by the blow.

Apparently, a torrential rain was coming.

A group of people is shuttling through the woods.

The leader is a fat man in brocade clothes riding a horse.

Next to him was a skinny man with high cheekbones and sunken cheeks, who looked a little treacherous.

Behind are four guards.

"Master Ma, I'm afraid it will rain heavily today, let's find a place to shelter from the rain first." The skinny man said.

"This rain really didn't come at the right time. It's about to arrive in Huai County, and it still comes like this."

The fat man muttered, but still chose Master Tang's suggestion.

He didn't want to be drenched in water.

After walking forward for a while, a little light appeared in front of him.

"Master Ma, there is a small village ahead, let's spend the night there first."

With the help of the pale lightning flashing across the sky from time to time, Mr. Tang vaguely saw the outline of a village.

"Okay." The fat man nodded.

At this moment, the sound of horseshoes sounded behind him again.

The fat man looked back.

A young man riding a steed came into view, with a big bow on his back, a majestic appearance, an upright body, and eyes like cold stars, exuding a heroic aura.

This mountain road was originally very narrow, and the two horses in the fat man's team blocked the front, and the young man couldn't get through at all.

Seeing this situation, the heroic youth just frowned and didn't speak. He could only slow down and follow behind the team.

after awhile.

Fat adults and his party turned into the village.

The heroic youth took a look at the sky, and also chose to enter the village to avoid the rain.

Wang~~~
The sudden arrival of a group of people soon attracted the sound of dogs barking.

Facing so many people, a black earth dog kept barking, very excited.

The barking of the earth dog quickly attracted the attention of the villagers. The originally dark house was instantly lit up, and there was a burst of noise.

Soon, many villagers rushed out with agricultural tools such as hoes and rakes, and oil lamps, watching these uninvited guests.

"Who are you?"

"What are you doing in our Zhuye Village?"

"If you have any bad thoughts, don't think that we are easy to bully, you leave immediately!"

The villagers shouted.

"Fathers and elders, it's going to rain soon, and we're here for a night." Master Tang said with a smile.

"Besides, you don't have to worry about what kind of villains we are. The one next to me is the county magistrate who went to Huai County to take up his post, Mr. Ma!"

Hearing that the fat man was the county magistrate, the villagers were a little suspicious and didn't know what to do for a while.

At this time, an old man with the appearance of a village head walked out of the crowd.

The village chief was too old, his face was wrinkled like bark, exuding a strong breath of death, as if half of his foot had stepped into a coffin.

However, the village head seemed to be rotten, but his mind was still quite bright. He looked at the fat lord: "If this lord is the county magistrate who is going to take office, does he have official documents with him?"

"Of course there are." The fat man was also unambiguous, and directly took out his official documents.

After the village chief saw it, he hurriedly said: "I have seen the county magistrate, I have offended you before, please make amends!"

Magistrate Ma waved his hand casually: "I'm a new official, it's normal if you don't know each other, and it's not a crime if you don't know."

"Then please come in and rest quickly, sir!" The village head stretched out his hand to ask.

Fat Lord and his party got off their horses and followed the village chief into the village.

The heroic young man took the reins and said to the villagers: "I am a traveler, and I also want to spend a night in the village."

The villagers saw that although the heroic young man was carrying weapons, he didn't look like a bandit, so they agreed to let him stay overnight.

There seemed to be a lot of vacant houses in the village, and the villagers quickly found a house for Yingwu Youth.

Zhou You took a look at the environment of the house. There were some dusty cobwebs and a faint musty smell. It was obvious that no one had lived in it for a long time.

However, in this wild country, it is already very good to have a tile to cover the head, so we can't ask for too much.

While tidying up a little, there was another sound of footsteps outside the house.

"Do you have a better house? I can pay for it." A gentle voice sounded.

"It's easy to say, easy to say!" The villagers immediately beamed with joy when they heard that there was money to receive it.

Zhou You pushed open the door and looked outside.

I saw a man and a woman in gorgeous clothes walking in front, followed by two men who looked like servants.

It should be the rich young lady who came out to play in the mountains and rivers. Maybe she played too much and didn't go back after dark. Now that the heavy rain is coming, she can only stay in this village for one night.
