Chapter 1440 City Lord
Be careful to make the Ten Thousand Years Ship, but to change its appearance a little more, it has the technique of changing appearance, and it is a matter of minutes to use it.

I did so much damage before, although I did it very carefully, but I was afraid that I would leave some clues somewhere.

Even if the other party wants to investigate, at least they can't expose themselves so quickly.

City Lord Ouye is now as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, circling back and forth in the hall non-stop.

The whole family spent all their money to let him become the city lord. They thought it was "one hundred thousand snowflakes and silver for the prefect in three years", but they didn't expect that less than half a year after taking office, there were rumors that a monster was born and harmed the common people. rumor.

So they posted notices and sent people to various places to refute the rumors.

Unexpectedly, not only failed to curb the rumors, but intensified.

At this time, someone offered a suggestion, saying that since there are rumors of ghosts being born in the world, it is better to invite Taoists to give them a method to stabilize people's hearts.

Since then, the situation has eased slightly.

Unexpectedly, half a year later, the whole people panicked.

What the villagers pumped out of the well was not water, but sand.

What grows in the ground is not crops, but strips of worms.

What boils out of the pot is not food, but filth...

Meanwhile, a new rumor spread.

It is said that monsters come to the world and will bring disaster to the world. In the past, all people's food was filthy, and it was all dirty by monsters, so they couldn't eat it.

I must go to the city to find the blessing and redemption of the saint...

... Such rumors are pure nonsense to Su Xin and the others, full of loopholes.

But it is different for the people who are born and raised here. As mentioned before, the specific growth environment and experience determine their knowledge and thoughts.

In addition, at that time, because of the bewitching of those witches, various abnormalities appeared in the family, which made people panic. Once the rumors came out, a few more provocative bewitches came... So those people left their homes one after another and went into exile the road.

They flocked to Stone Machine City.

At the beginning, Stone Machine City accepted these refugees, and tried their best to persuade them to return to their homeland...in the end, they failed.

So someone must be provoking...

Besides, Ouye was originally an official position bought with donations from the Ou family, and he usually has a bit of official dignity, but in this extraordinary period, he cannot be more courageous than ordinary people.

When he wanted to use those Taoists to quell the rumors, it turned into an even bigger disaster.

In fact, it was precisely because of the government's order that those Taoists justifiably entered every village, and even every villager's home, and set up the plot.

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, he had to ask his superiors for help, and the reply from his superiors was that they would send some food over.

Just ten days ago, the food delivery team was robbed by refugees on the way. All the officers and soldiers accompanying them died, and the food was nowhere to be found.

Seeing that there are more and more refugees, it is difficult to appease even if the porridge is given out at the four city gates every day. In the past two days, there have been several riots in the place where the porridge was given out.

If it drags on, I'm afraid the porridge will not work.

Ouye could only ask Shangfeng to send another army, and he could only forcibly suppress these refugees.

However, the response from the above was that the whole country of Wu is now in turmoil, and there are no redundant troops sent to do such trivial things as maintaining order, let him solve it by himself.

And in the wording of the reply letter, if he can't even settle this matter, then he will be the city lord to the end.

Just when he was at a loss what to do, a Shangxian who claimed to be a disciple of the reincarnation sect came, saying that he had sensed that there was a monster here causing harm to the world, and came to help put down the disaster.

But just arrived, he took out a magic weapon like a compass, and then his expression changed drastically, saying that things had changed, so he asked him to wait, and then left.

So Ouye has been waiting anxiously for the past two days.

There's nothing he can do if he doesn't wait, anyway, he has nothing to do with such a large number of refugees.

A few people who wanted to take away the refugees in batches were sent out before, but they were killed instead, and even the bodies could not be found.

Today the situation is even more serious, even the porridge shed was demolished, and dozens of porridge givers were killed by those rioting people, with incomplete bodies.

Unexpectedly, he waited and waited, but the guard came to report that there were three Taoists asking to see him.

A Taoist, and a Taoist, before he believed those Taoists who said that they could solve the rumors, but the trouble became so uncontrollable. I didn't expect those bluffing Taoists to dare to come.

He was about to flick his sleeves to send the three Taoists away, but suddenly changed his mind.

He has never been able to find those Taoists, and now he will catch a few and interrogate them carefully. Even if he can't find out the culprit, at least he can vent his anger, and then drag him to the city gate to kill them, saying that these people are the ones who confuse the people and try to ease the anger of the people. It's also good.

So they were led to the inner hall, and at the same time, they were arranged...

Let's say that after the three of Suxin disguised themselves, they went to the City Lord's Mansion to reveal their identities, saying that they could help alleviate the current crisis.

After the guard went to Tong Bing for a while, he asked the three of them to follow him without saying a word.

Xuan Miao saw that this was walking towards the side hall, something was wrong, she whispered: "Sister Su Xin, they don't believe us at all, this..." Obviously there is a trap.

Su Xin said indifferently: "It would be strange if we would trust us casually now. Such a big situation could be achieved. If there were no legitimate official documents before, even a very strict organization would not be able to control thousands of villages. It became like that. Now, the other party is probably trying to find us as a scapegoat."

"Then we still..."

"Don't worry, just take one step at a time."

... As soon as the three of them entered the room, the door behind them was slammed shut. Immediately afterwards, a dozen or so armored soldiers jumped out from the surrounding darkness, and attacked the three of them with their knives drawn.

Seeing this, Xuan Miao scolded angrily: "...Are you all blind?..."

Before he could say a word, Su Xin quickly put everyone down.

Lightly said: "What is there to say to these minions, only when you are shocked can you see the person in charge here."

Sure enough, when the room calmed down again, the door behind him opened.

A guard in armor cupped his hands at the three of them: "Your Excellency, please."

Xuanmiao was still a little annoyed, but seeing that Suxin didn't mean to say a word to these people at all, and didn't even bother to look at them, so he ignored so much, went out, turned a few long corridors, Enter another spacious and bright main room.

Standing in the middle of the main room was a middle-aged man dressed in fine clothes, tall and straight, with a majestic imposing manner.

This should be Ouye, the lord of Stone Machine City.

Ouye saluted the three of them first: "There were many people who came here for fame and fame, so I had to make such a bad plan. I hope the three masters will forgive me."
