Daxia Lingxian

Chapter 264 The Real Ghost (Two in One)

Luo Li, Su Chuo, and the others looked ugly.

I just came back, and before I was happy for a long time, I encountered such a bad thing.

In the heavily guarded city lord's treasury, there are more than 40 gold resources that are not in line with the accounts!
If I hadn't checked the accounts as soon as I came back, I wouldn't have found this hole.

"Miss." Gu Yunxiao said after deliberation, "Could it be that the lord took it away? Everything belongs to the lord. It's normal for him to take it by himself."

Su Chuo immediately shook his head, "It's not the city lord who took it. The city lord is very serious about money and accounts, and it can be said that he distinguishes between public and private."

"Although the treasury is also his resource, he regards it as a public treasury, which is strictly separated from his personal resources."

"The city owner's personal resources are sufficient, and he doesn't need to use the public treasury at all. Even if he takes it, it will definitely be credited!"

"It is absolutely impossible for him to quietly take away so many resources without keeping accounts."

In fact, how could Luo Ning be careless about hiding money?
On the contrary, he is a man who is very cautious about the safekeeping of money.

For this reason, he not only implemented a strict bookkeeping method, but also established a storage, management, and cashier statistics system for the treasury.

Not to mention meticulous.

Under this kind of management system, once things are missing, as long as the accounts are checked, loopholes will be found immediately.

He took it himself, and it will also be recorded as an expense.

If there is no such financial management system, it is really not easy to find loopholes.

...

"Who took the money, if I plead guilty voluntarily, I will give you a lighter punishment!"

"If you're lucky and try to get away with it... Hehe, then you can only feed my monsters."

Luo Li at this moment is not at all like a young girl in her prime.

Coupled with the perfect cultivation of the fourth grade, no one dared to underestimate her because she was young.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, as if to observe who the suspect was.

Who is it?Damn it.

Before the city lord's mansion had time to hold a banquet to welcome the eldest lady back, it was about to face the anger of the eldest lady.

The six cao outside the city lord's mansion, the three cao inside, and the Tubo generals... all received orders to go to the council hall for a meeting.

As soon as the eldest lady came back, she had to give everyone a blow!

When everyone was ordered to rush to the meeting hall, they saw Luo Li sitting on the seat of the castellan with an indifferent expression, and Su Chuo sitting beside her.

The girl glanced at the crowd with a pair of Danfeng eyes with clear charm and spirit, which resembled her brother's. Her gloomy little face was like melting ice and snow, and she actually showed a smile.

"Everyone is the hero of Longcuo City, brother's right-hand man. I am really sorry that I called a meeting as soon as I came back today."

"It's almost Chinese New Year, I plan to distribute salary in advance, share some spiritual food and wine for everyone, so that everyone can have a good New Year."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a group of Tubo maids came forward with the things in their hands, and handed them to Gu Yunxiao, Xia Chanming and others in turn.

Luo Li said to the happy couple and the lucky couple again:
"This is the top spiritual tea in Jinguan City, Yunyin Qifeng. You can pour tea for everyone and try it."

After everyone drank from Yunyin Qifeng, Luo Li continued:

"Everyone welcomes me back today. I am very grateful. Inviting everyone here is also to say thank you and join us in the banquet tonight."

Seeing Luo Li being so polite, everyone immediately calmed down their uneasy mood.

At the same time, he hated embezzlers even more, and all his eyes were directed at the few people who managed the treasury.

It has been less than two years since the birth of Long Cuoling, and the management team of the City Lord's Mansion has only been perfected for one year. It is a brand-new force full of vigor.

Luo Ning promulgated the "Order of the Lord of the City" to rule the Ming Dynasty, lightly corvee and thin taxes, promote enlightenment, appease law and order, crack down on tyrants, and cut off ghosts...

The entire dragon wrong collar has begun to take on a new look.

But how long?With such a new force, moths appeared inside!
How is this not heartbreaking, angry, surprising?
Not to mention it is a small territory, it is the past dynasties, how can it be like this in the founding period?
If the founding of Daxia is like this, can it last for 2000 years?

You Hao stood up first, her high bun didn't tremble at all, and her tone was very calm:

"Miss, there are five people in charge of the treasury. Three people are in charge of the keys of the three doors respectively. The other two are the cashier and the other is Kanhe."

"These five people are all responsible. The subordinate is one of the five people, but the subordinate is only in charge of the key of the inner door, regardless of the cashier and inspection."

"What the subordinate wants to say is that the subordinate did not take any resources. The lord is very generous to the subordinate, and the subordinate does not lack resources."

Yin Yu also stood up and said without fear:

"Ge Ge, er, let the slave be in charge of the key to the middle door. Although the slave dare not say that he will do his best, he will never dare to guard and steal."

"Besides, the servant only cares about the key to the middle door. Don't say it's unintentional, even if you want to be greedy, there's nothing you can do about it. This matter has nothing to do with the servant, please check carefully."

E Shu also stood up and stated his position: "Gege Mingcha. Although the slave is surveying and coordinating, he only surveys the list and the number and types of in and out of the warehouse."

"Auntie, the disciple only manages the keys of the outer door." Bai Yuanyuan stood up and said, "I didn't take it either."

"The magic weapon of the three keys cannot be controlled by one person. Once the three keys are concentrated on one person, the key will fail,"

Luo Li nodded, and after waiting for a while, Danfeng glanced, "Who is the cashier? Why don't you stand up?"

This time, no one stood up.

When everyone looked at it, they realized that there was one person missing.

Child-faced shaman, Murong Lingbei!
Speaking of which, the white shaman of Bayan Mountain and Murong Lingbei, the daughter of the Tugu tribe, are also old people of the Luojiaban.

Everyone knows that the city lord has always trusted Tongyan Shaman.

The position of treasury cashier is very important, and most people can't get this position at all.

"Where's the Tongyan Shaman?" It wasn't until this time that Luo Li realized that she hadn't found the Tongyan Shaman since she came back.

"Gege." E Shu replied, "Murong Lingbei has been missing for several days."

It's Tongyan Shaman!
Everyone immediately understood.

She can take advantage of the absence of the city lord and Mrs. Su and take advantage of her duties to secretly steal resources worth hundreds of thousands!
"Where did she go?"

"Could it be that he fled in fear of crime?"

"That's right, it should be her."

"She is the daughter of the leader of the Tsuchiya Department. Since she returns to the Tsuchiya Department, she must bring a batch of resources back."

Luo Li and Su Chuo looked at each other with solemn expressions.

Tong Yan Shaman is an old man from the Luo family class, and he is very familiar with them.

"40% of the resources worth more than [-] taels of gold are spiritual stones!" Su Chuo frowned suddenly, "The remaining [-]% are also high-grade medicine pills, spiritual herbs, and spiritual food!"

"These resources are mainly used by senior monks!"

"Murong Lingbei is just a young-faced shaman. There are not many monks in the Tugu tribe, let alone a fifth-rank monk."

"Then, why didn't she take the gold and silver that are more useful to the tribe, but instead take away the spirit stone that is less useful to the tribe?"

Gu Yunxiao nodded, "Madam Su means that the inner thief may not be a child-faced shaman?"

Luo Li said: "She is indeed the biggest suspect. But she does not take gold and silver, but only takes resources used by senior monks, which is a big suspect."

"Brother hasn't returned for a long time, Tongyan Shaman must have returned to Tugubu for something. After all, she also said that she would only stay with brother for a year."

Although Luo Li raised a doubt, it was not enough to clear Murong Lingbei's suspicion.

Su Chuo suddenly asked: "Apart from these five people, are there other people entering the treasure house?"

You Xuan, Yin Yu and the others thought about it and shook their heads together.

E Shu said: "Ge Ge, the servant is almost certain that no one else has entered the treasure house except the five of us."

Her Xia language was rather blunt, but her tone was very firm.

"The three doors of the treasury all need a key magic weapon. If someone can sneak into the treasury without making a sound, unless there is another set of keys."

"Every time the treasure house is opened, it will be closed in less than a quarter of an hour. It is very difficult for others to sneak in while taking advantage of this opportunity."

"Gege also knows that the treasure house is in the inner courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion. The inner courtyard is already heavily guarded, let alone the treasure house?"

"Even if the infiltrator has a high level of cultivation, it is difficult to open the box under our noses and take away a lot of resources."

"So, it should be the inside ghost. One of the five is the easiest to attack."

"The easiest thing to do is not the one with the key, but the servant and Murong Lingbei. But the servant swears that he didn't take anything."

Her meaning was obvious, if nothing unexpected happened, the thief was Murong Lingbei.

When everyone heard the words, they all shook their heads and sighed.

It was Murong Lingbei who was right.

She is a cashier and handles resources directly.If she secretly took the resources, she would indeed be able to hide it from the other four.

Luo Li was stunned for a moment, she didn't want Tongyan Shaman to be an inside thief.

She hoped that the inner thief was one of the two Jurchens.

Non-my family, its heart must be different.If the Jurchens are internal thieves, just do it directly.

But obviously, the inner thief should be the Tongyan shaman who left without saying goodbye.

Su Chuo didn't want to be a child-faced shaman either.But right now, who is more suspected than Tongyan Shaman?
The Tongyan shaman has already returned to Tugubu, so he can't torture the other four, can he?

That would hurt the unity and hearts of Longcuo City.

"This matter violates the laws and regulations of Longcuo, and it must not be tolerated." Su Chuo said, "Resources worth more than 40 gold are a huge amount, so of course we can't forget it."

"However, Murong Lingbei is an old man in the Luo family class, and has contributed to the city lord. Whether it is her or not, we can wait for the city lord to come back to discuss this matter."

Su Chuo was very worried.Brother Luo's cultivation has been transformed into a mortal for a year, but he has no cultivation for the time being, where can he go?
Could it be...someone sneaked into the City Lord's Mansion and captured Brother Luo?
"Well, sister-in-law is right." Luo Li could only agree with Murong Lingbei who had left, "I believe everything will come to light."

"I don't believe that with so many spirit stones, high-grade medicine pills, and spirit herbs, they can fly by themselves!"

"Well, when brother comes back, he will definitely handle it properly."

Just as Luo Li said this, he suddenly heard the roar of monsters from the forest garden not far away.

"Roar-ow-!"

Luo Li's expression changed suddenly when the monster roared in panic and uneasiness!
what happened? !
There are hundreds of monsters in the forest garden, but with the combat power of [-] soldiers and horses, who exactly did they encounter, and they turned out to be a formidable enemy?
Everyone's expression changed drastically!

not good!A powerful enemy has invaded the City Lord's Mansion!
Gu Yunxiao and the others reacted very quickly. As soon as they heard the roar of the Luoli monster, they fled out of the meeting hall in a flash and rushed to Lin Yuan's position.

Almost at the same time, Luo Li's figure also disappeared in place.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

Rays of light shot at the forest garden of the City Lord's Mansion, and all of them were stunned on the spot when their consciousness was swept away!
I saw hundreds of ferocious monster hedgehogs gathered together, their roars were shocking, and their aura was like boiling, as if they had encountered a terrifying enemy.

And in the sky, a huge black dog covered in flames stands impressively!

But seeing that giant black dog the size of a calf, with bloody eyes like bells, frosty teeth like blades, and monstrous flames spitting out of its mouth!

The flames radiated a terrifying temperature, forming a powerful fire area in an instant, like a cloud of fire floating in the air!
Its demonic aura is powerful and ancient, like an ancient divine beast in the depths of the void, descending through time and space!

Even the severe winter, which is full of wind and snow and bitingly cold, becomes like a poisonous summer with scorching sun under the scorching flames!
And this frightening black giant dog is actually protecting a buffalo.The buffalo was injured and was still bleeding, as if it had been scratched by the sharp claws of the demon eagle.

"Wow!" The giant black dog roared wildly, the sound shook the sky, terrifying flames swept out, and the demonic aura surged even more violently.

The entire sky seemed to be swallowed by a monstrous sea of ​​flames!
The entire Longcuo City is shrouded in a cloud of fire!

"Kaka—" The powerful demon domain condensed by hundreds of monsters actually collapsed piece by piece under the terrifying fire domain!
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of monsters were suppressed by a black dog!
"This... This is a first-grade monster..." Gu Yunxiao and others looked at this scene in shock, unbelievable, dumbfounded.

Luo Li and Su Chuo also showed shock.

"It's... Xiao Hei! It's transformed!" Luo Li looked up at the giant black dog and the monstrous flames in the sky, and then revealed a look of extreme surprise.

It turned out to be Xiao Hei!It awakened blood and transformed!

Too.It is already three years old, it is not the little milk dog before, and it can indeed awaken the blood to transform.

"Huo Dou!" Su Chuo couldn't help but blurted out.

According to ancient records, if a shooting star in July falls into the belly of a female dog who is pregnant for one month, the female dog may give birth to a big monster:

Violent dogs fight together!

It is a rare species of heaven and earth.

When Huo Dou didn't change shape, he was just an ordinary black dog.After three years of life, Fu Dou got a chance to transform into a top-notch monster.

It is good at swallowing flames and brewing a monstrous sea of ​​flames. It is a monster with ominous omens!
According to remote ancient books, the master chosen by Fu Dou is a vicious god who harms the world, and he is by no means an ordinary villain.

Seeing Luo Li, the frightening and coercing demon dog immediately "woofed" and swiped its tail.

The monstrous flames were immediately sucked into the belly like sea water being sucked into the sea eye.

In a blink of an eye, there was no longer a flame in the sky!
And that huge monster dog covered in flames turned into an ordinary black dog again, and the arrogance and coercion of a first-rank big monster beast also converged into the invisible!
It landed beside Luo Li, squatting obediently at Luo Li's feet, wagging its tail and shaking its head.

"Okay! That's great!" Luo Li patted Xiao Hei's head overjoyed, "I didn't expect you to be able to transform, and you're still a rank-[-] monster!"

"This is the existence that can compete with real people!"

When everyone saw this scene, they were like clay bodhisattvas in the temple.

This...first-rank monster is so obedient to the eldest lady?
How can it be?

And those hundreds of monsters, although they escaped unharmed, they looked at Xiao Hei, but they were full of fear, and they trembled one by one.

Seeing Luo Li, they stabilized.

"Moo—" a cow blew, and the injured old man also ran to Luo Li's side.

Luo Li quickly understood the reason through the animal language.

It turned out that the monsters bullied and scratched the weak old chap.Just happened to be discovered by Xiao Hei, so he came out to protect the old chap.

When the monsters see that Xiao Hei is an unremarkable black dog, why do they take him seriously?

So, Xiao Hei turned into an avatar, ready to teach them a lesson.

If it weren't for knowing that the monsters were all raised by Luo Li, these monsters would have been buried in flames!
Suddenly, Bai Yuanyuan said as if waking up from a dream: "Auntie! Last time I went into the treasury to collect the military salary, Xiao Hei also went in with me!"

"It stayed in the treasure house for a while before coming out with me. At that time, I found that its fur was much smoother, and it still had an indescribable breath..."

"I see." Luo Li nodded with a very strange look on his face.

"Xiao Hei has already told me that the few resources in the treasury are what it ate as food when it followed you into the treasury."

"It is because it ate more than 40 worth of spiritual stones and pills that it can successfully awaken its blood and transform successfully."

"From now on, my dragon city will be guarded by a first-rank monster!"

what? !

Everyone lost their voices once again.

The inside thief is Xiao Hei?

E Shu was right.It is true that no one other than the five sneaked into the treasure house.

It turned out that the person who sneaked into the treasure house was not a human being, but a dog!
Alas, I really misunderstood Tongyan Shaman.

PS: Hahaha!No one thought of this.It's hot, everyone pay attention to your body, I'm so tired.Want to eat delicious food, but dare not.
