Chapter 235
All the villagers were prostrate on the ground, and the young man Shui Sheng stared at the noble young man in the front with his wide eyes. He was the one who saved him just now.

To Shuisheng's surprise, he is Fusu, the eldest son of Daqin.

The rest of the villagers were trembling and kneeling on the ground. For them, even an official like the county magistrate, it was not easy to see them once in a lifetime.

But the first man who appeared in front of them was the captain of Daqin, and the man who appeared later was even bigger, he was the eldest son of Daqin.

As for the identities of Fusu and the others, no one dared to doubt. From the moment they appeared in front of everyone, all the words and deeds of Fusu and the others were completely in line with the imagination of the villagers.

Fusu glanced at the kneeling villagers, and he also understood that these villagers have been shocked, and if they want to achieve their goals, they must still maintain a cold posture.

If you show an approachable attitude at this time, it will make these villagers lose their awe.

"The sacrificial ceremony will be postponed for the time being. Rong Gu will make a decision after inspection." Fusu said coldly.

"Angel, absolutely not!" The old man who had blocked him tremblingly walked in front of Fusu, knelt down and kowtowed beggingly.

"Your Highness, if you offend Lord Dragon, our entire village will suffer!"

"Nowadays, there are already a few young people in our village who have been eaten by the Dragon King. If the sacrifices stop, the Dragon King will be furious and bring disasters at that time. Your Highness, please take pity on us."

Seeing the old man bursting into tears, Fusu felt even more annoyed, and knew in his heart that people of this age are very stubborn and unreasonable at all, as long as they believe in something, even if they are wrong, they will not admit it even if they are beaten to death.

In their view, the use of human sacrifices is a matter of course and an unbreakable truth.

And although this kind of people don't have much position in the village, they have a high prestige. From the short time just now, Fusu saw some clues.

Even Li Zheng, who presided over this matter, had to be at the mercy of this old man, not to mention the other people in the village.

Therefore, there is only one way to deal with this kind of person, power.

With a "clang clang", Fusu pulled out the Tai'a sword from his waist, and said: "Lieutenant Yingbu, listen to the order."

"The minister is here." Ying Bu straightened up suddenly, and immediately bowed his head towards Fusu.

All the villagers trembled in their hearts, but Fusu didn't understand it, and said: "Today, the lonely and false Qing Tai'a Jian, if anyone in the village disobeys and refuses to obey, he will be killed without mercy."

As soon as the words fell, Yingbo immediately understood, stepped forward and solemnly took the Tai'a sword, and immediately fixed his eyes on many villagers.

Although Yingbo is only one person, when those beast-like pupils touch anyone, he can't help but make people feel terrified and dare not move.

Beside Yingbu, dozens of soldiers had half drawn their sharp swords from their waists, and anyone among the villagers who dared to make a move would be immediately chopped off by the swords.

The old man who was crying before was also very frightened by this battle and dared not speak any more.

Seeing this scene, Fu Su was a little relieved. Right now, the only thing to do is to scare out this group of villagers first, and then he can gradually figure out what will happen next.

Fusu said: "Villagers, I will thoroughly investigate this matter. I am Fusu, the eldest son of the First Emperor of Qin. If there is an evil spirit, I will definitely kill the evil god for you. If it is man-made, I will not forgive it. .”

Fusu's eyes suddenly stared at a person with a strange face and clothes below him, he was the priest who presided over the sacrificial ceremony.

I have experienced many things in Fusu, Jiujiang County. Among them, many priests were found out that in order to collect money, they did not hesitate to fabricate ghosts and gods, and even murdered them.

Relying on his own intuition, if this matter was human-made, Fu Su concluded that the priest must be involved.

Fusu's eyes finally fell on a middle-aged man, he was the leader of the village.

Seeing Fusu staring at him, Li Zheng felt his heart tremble, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

After a long time, Fusu said: "Lizheng, Gu ordered you to go to the county government immediately and tell the county magistrate to roll here before sunset."

"Ah?" Lizheng opened his mouth wide, looking at Fusu in horror.

In his heart, the county magistrate is already a great official, like the sky, but Fusu actually asked him to report, especially with such bad words.

But Fusu ignored Lizheng's expression, and took out a token from his bosom and handed it to Yingbu. Yingbo looked at Lizheng with a smirk, stretched out the token, and shouted: "Not yet?"

Yingbo's sound brought Lizheng back to his senses, and he quickly took the token respectfully.

"You guys go home and wait for the government's order, and don't cause trouble." Following this order, the villagers left the place one after another.

Shui Sheng hurried to the river and untied the rope that bound the girl.

Fusu walked to the river, looked at the two, and judged by his own intuition, this should be a pair of young people in love.

Shui Sheng looked at Fusu with gratitude, and led the girl to kneel down and said, "The villain is grateful for His Highness's kindness, and thank His Highness for saving Alan."

There was not much smile on Fusu's face, and he said: "Don't be too happy, I can only save her for a while now, if I want to save her completely, I can only find out what happened."

Fusu looked at the young man in front of him and said, "Shuisheng, are you willing to help me?"

Shuisheng glanced at Alan, kowtowed quickly and said, "The villain is willing to help His Highness."

Fusu nodded. With someone like Shuisheng who knows the specifics of the local area, everything will go smoothly.

From the few words just now, Fusu still couldn't see the whole picture of the matter clearly. Only when he understood the situation clearly could he make a specific decision.

"Your Highness, please follow me." Alan walked in front, leading the way for everyone.

Under Alan's guidance, the crowd quickly came to a manor house. Seeing that the courtyard door was locked, Alan hurriedly knocked on the door and said, "Ada, Mother, Your Highness is coming to our house."

"Ada, mother, open the door quickly."

"..."

Alan called several times in a row, but there was no response. Seeing this scene, Fusu frowned.

Suddenly, Fusu heard a faint cry of a woman in the courtyard. At this moment, a man's voice came out: "Broken girl, uncle has designated you as a sacrifice to the Dragon King. If you go home, the Dragon King will blame our family..."

"Ada,..." Hearing such an answer, Alan stared at everything in front of him blankly, tears involuntarily flowed from his eyes, slid across his cheeks, and dripped on the ground.

Fusu looked at this scene, kept silent, but felt uncomfortable in his heart.

Gao Chong, who was beside Fusu, was full of anger at this time, he was a reckless man, he had no thoughts, at this moment he wanted to go forward and smash the door open, but was stopped by Fusu.

"Decree, do not disturb the people in the village without permission. If there is any disobedience, it will be dealt with by military law, and we will leave."
