Chapter 88 Black Water King

Chapter 88 Black Water King
Li Mu has never been a good person in the traditional sense.

He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is aggressive as a chivalrous man. He has caused many things since he was a child, and he can use any means to target the enemy.

It's like Gu Tianlin, who has been against him all the time, but at a very small price, he just found a few ladies in the bathing center, and he ruined Gu Tianlin to death, ruining his reputation.

However, in the modern society, he is still restrained, he will not break the law, fights are fights, and if he hits someone, it is only a flesh wound, so he has his own sense of proportion.

Even now that his cultivation base has improved and he has become a legendary Qi refiner, half a fairy, he still chooses to abide by the rules of modern society and be an ordinary, kind, law-abiding citizen.

Occasionally there are surprises, but that is a last resort, not the norm.

But after coming to the Great Yin Dynasty, killing people and punishing demons, the pride in the blood was aroused, and many worries were reduced in acting.

That Hao Jingui just now had a hideous face, a commoner, arrogant and domineering, he really got angry when he saw it, and his words were more shameless than experts in modern society.

I can't kill the bad ones in modern times, and I can't kill the corrupt officials of the Great Yin Dynasty?

Therefore, after sensing that Hao Jingui had evil thoughts towards him, Li Mu became murderous.

He is a fan of martial arts novels. Since he was a child, he has longed for the kind of chivalrous man who robs the rich and helps the poor, punishes corrupt officials, local tyrants and evil gentry. The plot of martial arts is still full of appreciation.

Are corrupt officials considered human beings?
He has long been deprived of human rights in his heart.

The court doesn't care about me!
Just cut it off with a single knife!

Therefore, when he was sure that Hao Jingui really wanted to target him, Li Mu threw out a giant snake puppet without hesitation, and swallowed Hao Jingui and his guards.

This little puppet technique has been cultivated to a high level, and the puppet really does not have much difference from normal creatures. Although this giant python puppet can't really digest and absorb the person who swallows it, Li Mu quietly put a pure sun in its abdomen. True fire, as long as these people are swallowed into the belly of the snake, they will be immediately vaporized and burned into nothingness.

But in the eyes of outsiders, Hao Jingui and others were indeed swallowed by a giant snake.

As for the disappearance of the giant snake after death, why the bodies of Hao Jingui and others were not left behind? That is a matter of monsters, and it is beyond the comprehension of mortals.

In this world, monsters and ghosts are commonplace. Monsters cannibalize people, and it happens from time to time, but there are not many monsters who have the courage to eat people in the city, or eat officials at the gate of the yamen.

"eat well!"

Zhang Shihong and the others did not slowly come back to their senses until after the giant snake disappeared. Only then did they have the strength to stand up. I'm leaving.

More came to the yamen, looking at the yamen smashed by the giant snake, with worried expressions on their faces.

After all, the magistrate of Qinghe County is a local parent official. If he is here, no matter how stupid he is, at least he has someone who can call the shots.

Now that he was devoured by the snake demon, and there was no bones left, it is impossible for the imperial court to send officials to take up the post soon. This Qinghe County may be in chaos for a while.

That's all, the key is that the Lian Visiting Envoy sent by the imperial court to investigate the place was also swallowed by the snake demon, which is a big deal.

Although Jingui is only a deputy envoy, he is also a fourth-rank official, which is extraordinary. The court will definitely be furious when he is swallowed by monsters. It is hard to say whether this matter is good or bad.

"Unfortunately, the county lord was buried in the belly of a snake, and the Lianfang envoy was also killed by the evil spirits. We must inform the court immediately and let the lord of the government deal with it."

Several scholars stood at the entrance of the county government office for a while, and after discussing with each other, they recommended Zhang Shihong to act as the county lord temporarily to handle many matters in the county.

According to the law of the imperial court, if there is a big change in a certain place, and the magistrate of the county dies, then the local recruiters and scholars can nominate prestigious people to temporarily manage the place. .

Zhang Shihong did not refuse: "A country cannot be without a king for a day, and the county seat is also the same. Brother, I have little talent and learning. Thank you for your kindness. I am temporarily acting as the county lord. Brother will definitely do my best."

At this time, the headhunters and yamen servants in the city also gathered together. They have no fame, and the responsibility of the county lords is beyond their turn.

But if you want Qinghe County to be stable, you need them to maintain law and order. Zhang Shihong's cousin is the head of the county government, and there are many members of the Zhang family in the regiment training in the city.

Now Zhang Shihong was ordered to act as the county magistrate in the face of danger, and the people of the old Zhang family naturally supported him. He is also a juror, and he has a good reputation in ordinary times, so he became the temporary magistrate of Qinghe County without any resistance.

A local old man reminded: "Shihong, the county magistrate and Lianfang envoy were swallowed by monsters. This matter is no small matter. It involves the imperial court and the Yin court. You should not only write a letter to the imperial court to report the details, but also burn incense and bathe, and report to the city god. Burn the yellow paper and tell Nether."

Zhang Shihong said: "Didn't the Temple of the City God be burned down? There is no City God in Qinghe County, so what should we do?"

The old man said: "Then invite the witch Wu Han to tell the ghosts and gods how to do it."

Zhang Shihong didn't dare to be negligent: "Then ask the old man to preside over this matter, and the preparations are ready. I will write the performance list myself and report to the ghost."

After making some arrangements, Zhang Shihong came to Li Mu and said, "Brother Li, the safety of Qinghe County depends on you!"

Nowadays, there are a lot of refugees outside Qinghe County, and with a little instigation, these victims may attack the county.

The plague has begun to spread, and from time to time victims of the disaster die, even people in the city are also infected with the disease, and they cannot afford to get sick.

It really is internal and external troubles, precarious.

Zhang Shihong knew that his abilities were limited, and he was afraid that he would not be able to handle this matter. The only thing he could count on was Li Mu.

As long as Li Mu, a strange person, supports him, he will have no worries.

Li Mu smiled and said: "Brother's ability is limited, I'm afraid I can't help Brother Zhang."

Zhang Shihong begged Li Mu: "Brother Zhang, I know you are clever, please save me! This Qinghe County is where the two of us temporarily act as magistrates. I am not a brother and I can decide it alone."

The reason why he acted as county magistrate temporarily was to let Li Mu manage Qinghe County together with him. With Li Mu in charge, Qinghe County would not be in chaos.

At the same time, the imperial court will give great care to those students who have made contributions to the local area during the imperial examinations. Those with outstanding ability to govern the local area will even be exempted from the exam and promoted all the way.

Zhang Shihong had already passed the Juren examination, so he naturally wanted to go one step further. At the same time, he also wanted to take advantage of the situation and give Li Mu half of the credit.

At that time, there will be no obstacles for Li Mu to participate in the scientific examination.

Li Mu didn't quite understand his calculations, but he saw that Zhang Shihong had pleaded for the people and begged Hao Jingui to exempt the victims from taxes, and now he wants to govern the local area. Although he has selfish intentions, he also has the idea of ​​helping the world and saving the people.

So he said with a smile: "The disaster victims outside Qinghe County must be resettled quickly. I have some resettlement strategies here. Brother Zhang might as well try it out. It will have some effect."

Zhang Shihong said: "I also ask Brother Li for advice!"

Immediately, Li Mu gave him some ideas, asking him to organize the victims to build temporary shelters, separate those who got the plague from ordinary people, build more public toilets, and stop drinking unboiled water.

At the same time, it uses work as relief, allowing healthy victims to participate in labor, repairing bridges and paving roads, digging rivers to reclaim wasteland, weeding and fertilizing landlords and rich households, all they need to do is manage their meals.

He also called on wealthy households to donate money and materials, build shelters, and porridge on credit to save people.

After telling Zhang Shihong some of the knowledge he read from the book, Zhang Shihong was elated and exclaimed: "Brother Li, such a move made me suddenly realize that you are a prime minister! You don't need it if you have this, it's really a It's the court's fault!"

Li Mu laughed loudly: "The talent of prime minister? I don't dare to be!"

After he informed Zhang Shihong of all the details, he said goodbye and left.

When I returned to my house, I saw someone hanging from a big tree at a nearby crossroads, with a pool of blood on his trousers, his legs kicked out, and he couldn't help struggling, in extreme pain.

"It seems that someone is plotting to destroy Ke's chess pieces again!"

Li Mu looked at the hanging man, and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "I didn't expect that the matter with this chess piece has not subsided until now, it seems that we have to use some violent means!"

When he came to the gate, Hu Yuniang was already waiting at the gate.

As soon as he saw Li Mu, he went forward to salute, and said with a smile: "Sun Honglie said that the master is back, but I still don't believe it. I thought about why the master went to the shop first instead of returning home, and then I heard the movement at the gate of the yamen, so I knew about you. Don't plan."

Li Mu smiled and said, "What's going on at the gate of the yamen? Don't talk nonsense!"

When he walked into the courtyard, Hu Yunniang hurriedly waited for him to wash his face and rinse his mouth, and then ordered someone to bring tea soup: "Please rinse your mouth, master."

Li Mu smiled and said, "Don't be too busy, I'm like a rich landlord. Our family doesn't have so many rules, so we don't have to copy the food from a rich family."

Hu Yunniang said: "Yes."

After serving Li Mu to drink tea, she softly said to Li Mu just now: "Master, I'm afraid there will be a storm in our county recently."

Li Mu asked strangely, "Trouble? What kind of disturbance?"

Hu Yunniang said: "Master killed the city god, which made the nearby Heishui King very angry. He and the local city god were friends of eight worshippers. When he learned that the city god was killed, he decided to poison the people of the city to pay homage to his righteous brother Chenghuang."

Li Mu asked curiously, "Who is this Black Water King?"

Hu Yunniang said: "The plague in nearby Baoming County is caused by the breath leaked by the King of Black Water when refining the magic weapon. It is said that his body has the blood of the ancient nine-headed poisonous insects, and he is best at using poison. Chi, no one dares to provoke him, all monsters with a radius of thousands of miles obey him."

Li Mu said silently for a moment: "How powerful is he?"

Hu Yunniang said: "Before, there was a master of Jindan stage who fought with him, and was poisoned by him in the end, and left in embarrassment. Later, a few monks came to destroy the demon, but he wiped it out instead. After that, no one Go mess with him again."

"So horizontal?"

Li Mu smiled and said, "Do you know when he came to Qinghe County to make trouble?"

Hu Yunniang said: "The exact date is not clear to the servants."

"For this kind of monster, you have to take the initiative to attack, and you can't wait for him to come."

Li Mu got up and paced around the room with his hands behind his back, pondering for a moment: "Tomorrow, I'll meet him first and see what kind of guy he is."

He drove Hu Yunniang out with a wave of his hand, took out a few steel and plastic figurines, and smiled: "Let's see how powerful this Blackwater King is, or whether Lao Tzu's puppet army is stronger!"
