Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 238 Deploying Troops in Dragon King Pond

Wen An spent the night in the ancestral hall of Shanghe Village with Fusu.

In the morning, Fusu washed up a bit, but at this time Wen An hurried over with an official.

Seeing Fusu, Wen An immediately cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, I just received a report from the officials this morning, and another person was killed last night. The preliminary judgment is that it was a monster."

Fu Su suddenly turned around and stared at Wen An, and said, "Take me to check immediately."

Hearing this, Wen An immediately signaled the officials next to him to lead the way, followed by Fu Su.

Following the officials all the way, Fusu came to a river beach, where there were already more than a dozen soldiers guarding the place to protect the scene from damage.

Seeing this scene, Fusu nodded. Unexpectedly, in this world 2000 years ago, the ancestors already understood the importance of protecting the scene.

Fusu strode forward and saw a place on the ground covered with a white cloth, and some places on the white cloth had been stained with blood, stained bright red by the blood.

Fusu didn't speak, Wen An saw the situation, and immediately asked the person beside him: "Ling Shi, how is the inspection going?"

Following Wen An's gaze, Fusu saw a middle-aged man in his 40s, dressed plainly.

The middle-aged man glanced at Fusu, Wen An immediately understood, and said, "But it's okay to say."

The middle-aged man immediately said: "Reporting to the county lord, let me examine the corpse. The corpse is already mutilated. The head, left arm, right leg and part of the internal organs are gone. The prison guards also sent people to search everywhere. Some debris was found out of the shallows."

"Furthermore, the wound on the deceased's body was bloody and bloody. I judged that it was cut by sharp teeth and caused by great force..."

After listening for a long time, Wen An couldn't help asking: "Ling Shi, who do you think did it?"

Ling Shi glanced at Fusu, seeing that the county magistrate did not stop him, he cupped his hands and said, "Master, I don't think this was done by humans, but a monster hiding in the water and eating people. I judge the missing limbs of the deceased. Already in the belly of that monster."

"This is not a unique case. The county official has been in office for three years, so he should be aware of this. And this year is especially severe. Since March, 28 people have been killed in Dangyang County."

Wen An looked at Fusu and said, "My lord, is there anything I need to ask?"

Fusu stood with his hands behind his back, and said: "County magistrate, what you usually do with it is what you do now, and you don't have to report it to me."

"No." Wen An bowed immediately.

Seeing this, many people were taken aback, and the county magistrate bowed their hands. From the tone of his speech just now, it was obvious that this young man who had appeared for the first time had a much higher status than the county magistrate.

This can't help but make people wonder whether the noble son from Xianyang came here to play, or some noble son from the court came down to perform his duties with gold plating, so that he can be promoted in the future.

Fusu didn't bother about other people, but directly brought Yingbu and Gao Chong to the corpse.

Taking a deep breath, Fusu slowly lifted the white cloth covering him, seeing the corpse under the white cloth, Fusu clenched his fists tightly, his brows were deeply wrinkled, and his expression was not very good-looking.

Speaking of which, this person was a bit worse than what Ling Shi described, and Fusu couldn't see a good spot all over his body.

Covering the white cloth, Fusu came to the river bank and asked a soldier, "How far is it from Dragon King Lake?"

The soldier also sensed that Fusu's status was not vulgar, so he bowed and said, "It's two miles away from here, just follow this river."

Hearing this, Fusu immediately took Yingbu and Gao Chong down the river.

Not far away, Fusu saw a rather vast lake, and he already knew in his heart that this was the legendary Dragon King Pool.

Looking at the calm surface of the lake, Fusu knew that the surface of the lake was not as calm as it looked on the surface, but the waves were rough.

After witnessing the tragedy of the deceased with his own eyes, Fusu also concluded in his heart that it was not man-made, and such wounds are definitely not something that humans can do.

If it weren't for the knowledge of the later generations, Fusu might be like everyone else at this moment, thinking that it was really the monster's work, and the Dragon King's crime.

"Gao Chong, take the tiger talisman and the lonely talisman to send a team of Louchuan sailors to come here in three days." Taking out the seal and the tiger talisman from his pocket, Fusu ordered decisively.

At this time, it is a military order.If there is a delay, as the chief military officer, the chief of Lou Chuan will be beheaded.

When it is said that it is time to arrive, it must be arrived before the appointed time, and there must be no delay for a moment. This is military law.

Besides, the time given by Fusu is enough, three days is enough for a group of Louchuan sailors to come here leisurely.

Fusu knew that such a vast lake was hundreds of miles long, and only Louchuan had a place to flex its muscles.

Among the Qin army, only Louchuan can take on this important task, and no other team can do it. We can't let the brave Qin generals go directly into the water to catch the monsters!
"Yingbu, send someone to the market to buy some live animals, poultry like chickens, ducks, geese, or some pigs and sheep."

"Order another bamboo raft."

Although Yingbu didn't know Fusu's orders very well, he still followed them.

After a while, Ying Bu, who had already given his orders, came to Fusu and asked, "My lord, what's the use of buying those live animals and making bamboo rafts?"

Fusu stared at the lake and said, "I just want to verify what kind of monster this is. Does this monster like the meat that Gu gave it?"

In Fusu's memory, this should be a beast that is quite familiar with water, either a giant python or a crocodile. It just so happens that these two types of animals are easily mistaken for the dragon king of.

In people's imagination, Fusu thought, these two animals should be the only ones that could have anything to do with dragons.

Fusu could remember a familiar story, but this hadn't happened yet.

The name of the story is Zhou Chu Eliminates the Three Harms, and it happened during the Western Jin Dynasty.One of the hazards is the flood dragon in the water. According to speculation, it should be a beast like a crocodile.

Fu Su also knew that these beasts were all carnivores, otherwise they wouldn't do things that hurt people.

Yingbo also suddenly understood Fusu's thoughts.

After about an hour, I saw two soldiers holding chickens and ducks in their arms, and leading a sheep over.

Following Fusu's instructions, these living creatures were placed on bamboo rafts and pushed to the center of the lake.

Seeing all this, Fusu said: "Yingbu, send someone to watch here, if there is any movement, come and report immediately."

"A team of people should be arranged here at night, and a few more fires will be raised, so the monster will not dare to offend."

Fear of fire is also the nature of animals in nature, especially this kind of ferocious beasts. Fusu doesn't want to kill such an animal and damage the soldiers in his hands, it's not worth it.
