Chapter 682 Poisoning
Jianyang's inquiry didn't get a real answer. This is an internal matter of the Phoenix Pavilion. Strictly speaking, Jianyang is not one of his own. How can he tell an outsider about this kind of thing.

Of course, the old man did not directly refuse, but chose an official answer, that is, the place is located in a remote area, with limited development, and transportation is not as cheap as in Xuantian Kingdom.

Jianyang was very sensible and did not continue to ask questions. After the two parties finished talking about the business, Jianyang left and went back to his room to rest.

The old man came to the window and looked at the night sky outside the window in a daze. The dark night sky was like a monster's mouth, boundless and full of dangers.

Ye walked away slowly with leisurely steps. Amidst the crowing of the rooster, the light spread to others with hope. A round of red sun rose in Dongyang, and a new day began.

Huaiyin County is turning old gears, repeating the rhythm of life day after day and year after year, as if nothing can arouse the passion of this ancient city.

In the county office, the young county magistrate was sitting in front of the case, frowning and checking the news in his subordinate's newspaper, his brows were tightly knit.

"Lord Zhuang, do you need to report to the emperor?" the yamen servant standing under the magistrate of Zhuang County asked, cupping his hands.

"Report." Zhuang Fei uttered a word coldly, would he dare to hide it?This is a serious crime, and if you don't report it, you will die.

"But the purpose of those people has not been found out yet."

The yamen servant was a little hesitant, he wanted to find out and then report, the problem was that his people couldn't get close, the people who got close had already become dead.

"Report first, if it's really not possible, please ask the emperor to send experts to investigate, we can't get close at all with our current strength."

Magistrate Zhuang rubbed his eyebrows. He knew that his current strength was too weak to be worth mentioning.

In such a situation of disparity in strength, it would be courting death to try to move up.

County Magistrate Zhuang has always known that Huaiyin County is not easy. Every county magistrate has great ambitions before coming, but in the end they will either disappear and become ordinary people in the world of mortals, or become dead.

When County Magistrate Zhuang was first transferred, he also had great ambitions and vowed to find out the bottom line of Huaiyin County and control these untouchables. He would only know it after he arrived, which is impossible.

I thought they would be convinced if they refused to accept it, but the result of the killing was that they were almost killed. If the emperor hadn't sent a shadow guard to assist, ten Zhuang Fei would have died too.

After experiencing death threats again and again, the magistrate Zhuang changed his tactics and became more gentle. He tried to boil the frogs in warm water, but the result also didn't work.

The people here don't like him at all, and it can't be said that they don't like him at all. Taxes and corvees will never short him, let alone fight with knives and guns in the open, but he can't do it if he wants to understand it deeply.

During this time, a large number of strangers poured in, which attracted Zhuang Fei's attention. He knew that there was a powerful force hidden in Huaiyin County, and he had no chance to find out the source.

Now that the opportunity came, Magistrate Zhuang found sadly that his subordinates were unable to verify, which was embarrassing.

Apart from asking the emperor for help, Magistrate Zhuang couldn't think of a better way.

While they were discussing countermeasures, Xiaosi, who was close to him, hurried over, looked at the magistrate Zhuang and said anxiously: "Master, it's not good, someone in the city has been poisoned."

"Poisoning?" County magistrate Zhuang was surprised and couldn't believe his ears. Isn't Huaiyin County very united, why is there poisoning?

"Yes, poisoning, some people were poisoned to death, the death was miserable, bleeding from the seven orifices." Xiao Si hurriedly replied, with a nervous expression on his face.

The magistrate of Zhuang county and the yamen servant looked at each other, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes, and there was a hint of joy in their eyes. Could it be that someone came to seek revenge?
If someone really seeks revenge, does that mean their chance has come!County magistrate Zhuang only felt his eyes light up, as if he had seen a turning point.

He hurriedly stood up from his seat, took two steps, sat back on his seat, took a pen and wrote a note in a hurry, ordered Xiaosi to make arrangements quickly, and then left with the yamen servant.

Walking out of the county office, he came to the east of the city. There were noises and sobbing in his ears. County magistrate Zhuang knew that he was not far from the place where the accident happened.

When the county magistrate Zhuang arrived, there were government servants who were one step ahead of them, and a doctor who was in a hurry to check, trying to find a way to detoxify, and to find the person who poisoned.

Seeing the county magistrate Zhuang coming, the yamen servant hurried forward to salute and reported the situation with a painful expression on his face.

13 people have died, and 20 people are still unconscious after being poisoned. Only a small number of poisoned people are still awake. These people all have one thing in common, that is, drinking water.

Similarly, the doctor also found poison from the water tank, but he didn't know what kind of poison it was, let alone who injected it.

The family members of the deceased knelt in front of the county magistrate Zhuang and begged the county magistrate to find out the truth and avenge the family
County Magistrate Zhuang responded with a dark face, how could I not see these people being so lowly before, and now I think of him, County Magistrate Zhuang is upset, but he has to solve the case.

Those who died of poisoning were ordinary people, his people. If the truth cannot be found out, Zhuang Fei feels that his position under his ass will not be guaranteed.

While Zhuang Fei was busy, in the underground secret room, the old man who chatted with Jianyang last night was staring at the dark-faced man kneeling in front of him with a dark expression.

"Who poisoned it?"

The old man asked coldly, there was a fire burning in his heart, it had been so smooth for too long, and he was not vigilant for a long time, and he was recruited in a small county town.

"I don't know, I haven't found out yet." The black-faced man lowered his head and responded, blood was gushing from his forehead and dripping down his cheeks, but he didn't dare to wipe it.

The old man's face continued to be cloudy, and he clenched his fists tightly. He really wanted to kill, but he also knew that killing wouldn't solve any problems.

After a long time, the old man squeezed out a cold word: "Check!"

"Yes." The black-faced man responded, knelt on the ground and moved outwards, keeping his head down, not daring to look up.

When the black-faced man backed away, the old man smashed the table with his fist angrily, and his teeth rattled.

Jian Yang was walking among the disciples of the Sword Sect, looking at the black-faced disciples, his heart felt like a knife was twisting, he thought that he would be safe when he came to Huaiyin County, but unexpectedly he was poisoned by a strange poison.

Jianyang understands how powerful the poison is. More than half of the disciples of the Shangyuan Sect were poisoned, and those people had the support of the sect behind them to detoxify with all their strength, but they still lost so much. What about them now?

The sect is gone, and the suzerain doesn't know where to go, fleeing in all directions like a rootless duckweed, where can I find someone to detoxify?
The big thick legs you just found?I don’t know if the legs are thick or not. I wanted to find a place to shelter from the wind and rain, but I wanted to die faster. Jianyang will hate the old man.
What you said at the time sounded good. When you get here, they will protect you, but you will protect them. Why would you let them die faster? Jianyang expressed his dissatisfaction.

Huaiyin County is very lively, and Li Dongyang also received the news immediately, it was the news sent by the king of poisonous hell. At the same time, the king of poisonous hell also notified Li Dongyang that he was going to the capital to meet the suzerain.
