The heavens begin with Hongquan

Chapter 483

Even if the county magistrate is not sent, wouldn't it be an extrajudicial place? !
Hong Kang asked: "Master Yao, how did the last magistrate die?"

Shopkeeper Yao's small eyes suddenly narrowed, and his eyes flickered.

These people are dressed so brightly, could it be that they are some big shots from above who are here to investigate the case? !
He laughed twice and said:

"...I'm not sure about this, I'm just a small business person,"

"This kind of official master, who knows~!"

The four of them saw shopkeeper Yao's appearance and knew that he knew the inside story.

Dongfang Bubai snorted softly, his red pupils lit up, and shopkeeper Yao's expression suddenly changed, and his gaze became dull.

"Brother Hong, your questioning method is too inefficient."

Hong Kang smiled noncommittally.

"Now, don't tell the truth!"

When he said the second half of the sentence, Dongfang Bubai looked at shopkeeper Yao, and there was a gleam of light in his red pupils.

Shopkeeper Yao immediately sat upright, straightening his back.

"It was killed by bandits, and the county magistrate's family was killed."

Killing officials and destroying families is really cruel! ~
Hong Kang asked, "Then why hasn't there been a county magistrate for nearly ten years?"

Shopkeeper Yao said: "Because, counting this term, we have already lost three county magistrates here in a row, so no official is willing to come here now."

"The same gang did it?~"

"No."

Zhang Sanfeng asked: "This bandit is so rampant, is there no yamen soldier to catch it?"

Shopkeeper Yao said: "As long as they go deep into the deep mountains and old forests, those government servants will not go after them. First, it is difficult to catch and dangerous. Second, the county magistrate is dead, so it has nothing to do with them."

"Many bounty hunters have been searching everywhere, but they are still looking for a needle in a haystack."

Pang Qingyang said: "Bounty hunter?!"

"It sounds like these bounty hunters are much more reliable than government servants."

But shopkeeper Yao's next words made Pang Qingyang's words stagnate.

"Sometimes these bounty hunters can't catch the murderer, so they will find a stranger who looks the same, cut a few knives and use it to convict him."

"........."

Hong Kang said: "Then why are there so many people in the county government now?"

They sensed dozens of breaths of life in the county government office.

"Oh~~ Those yamen servants took their whole family into the county yamen. It's a waste to be idle anyway."

"Actually, they don't like a new county magistrate, otherwise, they would have to pay the monthly payment."

Hong Kang took a sip and put down his teacup.

Asked: "Tell me about Heishan County, how much do you know?"

Pang Qingyang turned her head slightly, and her beautiful eyes showed some doubts. She knew that elder brother would not mention a name casually.

Shopkeeper Yao replied: "Heishan County?!"

"I haven't been there, but I heard from some people that there is a continuous black mountain in its territory, which is bare and sees no sun all year round. It seems to be more uneven than our place~!"

Dongfang Bubai asked: "Brother Hong, is there anything special about Heishan County you asked about?"

Hong Kang nodded and said, "I'll explain later."

Looking at Shopkeeper Yao, he said, "Then tell me about Lanruo Temple."

"Lanruo Temple~?!!"

These three words seem to have magic power.

Even in this bewildered state, shopkeeper Yao still trembled, showing the fear in his bones.

Dongfang Bubai became interested.

Rebuked: "Tell me what you know in detail, without missing a single bit."

Shopkeeper Yao continued to explain in a straight line.

"This Lanruo Temple was originally a very famous temple with a prosperous incense and many believers. It is said that it has a history of hundreds of years..."

"But then I don't know what happened. All the monks in the temple died overnight..."

"It's just that although people are dead, the Buddha statues in the temple are still there. Such a magnificent temple naturally arouses the covetousness of many people, wanting to take it for themselves..."

"But people who went to Lanruo Temple died one by one, and slowly, there were rumors of ghosts inside...!"

"More and more people died there, and later it became a mass grave. Gradually, when some people threw their corpses into the wild, they would also throw them there..."

"I don't know if there are too many dead people. The place is becoming more and more eerie and ghostly. It's okay to go there during the day, but none of the people who go there at night can come out alive the next day...!"

"Some people don't believe in evil, especially some Jiangyang robbers. In order to avoid being hunted down, they fled inside, but no one has seen them since then..."

"I also heard that some experts came to see it, but their face changed drastically, and they didn't dare to approach it; some people once said that they saw bright lights there at night, obviously it was a wasteland cemetery..."

"In this way, it will be even more wicked!~"

"Now, even beggars and thieves will not enter Lanruo Temple if they have nowhere to go."

The more shopkeeper Yao talked about Zhang Sanfeng, Pang Qingyang, and Dongfang Bubai, the more interested they became.

If there really are ghosts, then you can experience the extraordinary strength of this world! ~
"Little Er, serve the wine~!"

Suddenly, rough shouts came from downstairs, followed by the sound of weapons hitting the table.

"Damn it~! This life is getting worse and worse..."

"Who says it's not! Brothers haven't opened for half a year~!"

"If you can't catch the wanted criminal, you really have to drink the northwest wind..."

After the wine was served, after a few people clinked glasses, they complained even more.

Their noise attracted Hong Kang's attention.

The main reason is that Hong Kang can feel that these men in leather armor have much stronger muscles and bones than other people.

"Who are they?"

Shopkeeper Yao raised his head and said, "The three of them are bounty hunters, the one wearing the red scarf is Hu Feng, and the two next to him are his younger brothers, Hu Shan and Hu Tie, who are from the county."

"I heard that the three of them learned their skills outside and became bounty hunters. I don't know if they made any money...?!"

Hong Kang asked: "How are their skills?"

Shopkeeper Yao said: "I'm not very clear about this, but these three brothers have never suffered from fighting with others."

Dongfang Bubai said: "It's not easy to see their skills."

He stretched out his hand, and the 20 taels of silver in Yao's arms flew out, and Dongfang Bubai threw it into the street outside with a snap of his fingers.

"My money~!"

Shopkeeper Yao instinctively exclaimed.

Even in this state, he is still serious about silver.

The 20 taels of silver ingot was not light, and fell to the ground with a "bang".

The men, women and children nearby fell silent for a moment, dozens of pairs of dark eyes stared straight at the silver on the ground, and the three Hu brothers also stopped drinking.

"This silver is mine!!!"

At this time, there was a shout from somewhere, and the crowd immediately became confused.

The three Hu brothers stopped drinking and plunged into the crowd, shouting:
"Go away, go away, don't delay my uncle's fortune~!"

"boom!"

He was hit on the head suddenly, and he didn't know where the fist came from.

"Dare to hit me?!"

"Steal my silver and dare to hit me?! Second and third, follow me!~"

"Yes! Ahhh...!"

"You dare to grab my uncle's money...?!"

The crowd suddenly became more chaotic.

Shouting and beatings continued.

………………

Some guests came to Beiguo and chatted freely in the wine shop, very happy.Seeing the hardships of the living and the people, they donated silver in the street to donate money, and everyone praised them.
