I killed the film and television world

Chapter 506: County Office and Charity House

Located further up the mountain
A group of soldiers who had just driven a prisoner cart and ridden horses around the mountain road stopped halfway.

A group of people were looking at each other in bewilderment at the terrifying mushroom cloud exploding in the distance.

The leading officers and soldiers sat astride their horses.

He was wearing light armor and had several sharp spears on his back.

A pair of determined and courageous eyes were staring at the figure that was gradually moving away.

Zuo Qianhu murmured uncertainly: "What just now... was it a sorcery?"

His expression changed for a few moments, and finally he ordered in a deep voice: "You guys wait here first, I'll go over and take a look!"

After rushing over at full speed, they were faced with a large area of ​​broken and charred mountain roads, and a mixture of flesh and blood all over the ground. There was almost no complete body left.

Such a tragic situation made it difficult for Zuo Qianhu to maintain his expression.

Where did that person just now come from?
……

County Town

The doors and windows on both sides of the unrecognizable street were closed, and the road was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Xiong Da waited for Song Ren to return and asked cautiously, "Master, the monster seems to have run away. Where should we go next?"

Song Ren said calmly: "The centipede monster is seriously injured and can't run far in a short time."

Now, he is probably hiding somewhere to survive.

Song Ren planned to wait until night time and then call out Xiaoli to help with the search. With the twin ghosts to protect them, he wouldn't have to worry about her safety.

As for the present...

Song Ren turned his head:

"Let's go to the county government office and take a look."

This place is part of the county after all, but it's so lifeless that it's really inappropriate.

If the entire court is in this situation, it will take a long time to complete the task.

He didn't want to waste a lot of time on meaningless things.

However, before Song Ren reached the county government office, he had already noticed that a demonic aura was hovering in the direction of the county government office.

Because it was so thin and obscure, he only noticed this subtle abnormality when he was at a certain distance.

Xiong Da walked forward and took the initiative to knock on the drum set up at the gate of the county government office.

The drum surface had not been moved for who knows how long, and a layer of dust had already fallen on it.

The deep drum beats shook off the dust and also removed the layers of cobwebs that had already formed on the drum stand.

Song Ren pushed the door open and walked in.

This county government office is much bigger than what is shown in movies and TV dramas.

First there is a long corridor, then passing through the ceremonial gate, walking through another corridor, passing through a three-door, four-pillar stone archway in the middle of the courtyard, and finally entering from the platform, and then arriving at the hall where the case is interrogated.

However, this hall is usually used to interrogate major local events.

The official venue for court sessions is usually the Second Hall further back, which is one of the several inner offices.

The courtyard rooms on both sides are where the six clerks and three shifts of yamen runners work.

After entering, Song Ren waited in the second hall for almost an incense stick of time.

A group of lazy and spiritless guards on duty walked in calmly.

In the direction of the backyard, a tall and thin middle-aged man dressed as a legal advisor arrived late.

He walked in arrogancely, fiddling with a folding fan, and stood directly in front of the second courtroom. He squinted at Song Ren and Xiong Da.

He didn't mind the two standing still, but smiled and unfolded his folding fan, saying, "Which of you two can beat the drum to get the news?"

Song Ren did not answer, but looked around first, and finally saw that the main seat was still vacant, so he really spoke: "Where is the county magistrate in the county government?"

The master was not afraid of the other party being so straightforward, but he actually went a step further.

He snapped his folding fan shut, raised his voice, and sternly scolded, "You daring and unruly man! Are you the one questioning me, or am I?"

He winked at the guard standing next to him.

So, the jailers, who had been lazy and even whispering to each other, immediately cleared their throats and began to hit the ground with the killing sticks in their hands.

dong dong dong dong-

"mighty--"

The shouting of the gang of jailers was quite loud, but it lacked any momentum.

This kind of useless behavior made Song Ren frown even more tightly.

It's like a piece of mud that can't be helped!

His face sank and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

His aura suddenly dissipated.

boom! ! !
Under tremendous pressure.

Under Song Ren's feet, the bluestone floor cracked inch by inch, spreading all the way to the beams and pillars in the second hall, which also burst open one after another.

Those well-behaved jailers suddenly felt their shoulders sink, their bodies suddenly softened, and they fell to their knees.

The master in front was even more unbearable. He knelt on the ground with his knees and his head pressed against the floor. He was shaking all over and didn't dare to make a sound.

Song Ren: "Where is the county magistrate?"

The master said tremblingly: "Yes, yes, in the backyard wing room..."

So, under his leadership, several people went around to the backyard and went straight through the hall and the room.

Finally, he stood in front of the door of one of the rooms in the courtyard.

Xiong Da said in a big voice: "Master, the smell here is a little bit wrong."

To be precise, there is some evil spirit in it.

Just as the lawyer was about to stand outside the door and report something, Song Ren pushed him aside and walked in.

The furniture in the huge room is antique and exquisite.

A blushing voice came from the direction of the bed.

The sudden intruder interrupted the passion of the two people on the couch.

The red quilt was lifted, revealing the face of a middle-aged bearded man.

The fat old face was full of grease, but his eyes were somewhat gloomy: "Who allowed you to come in--"

Boom!
Before he could finish his words, a spear had already pierced his entire head, completely pinning it to the bed.

The legal advisor who came with him turned pale with fright.

The county magistrate was beaten to death?!
Song Ren walked to the bed, but the red quilt on the bed suddenly flew up and broke into countless pieces of cloth, blocking his view for a moment.

Two shadows flashed past from both ends of the bed in two directions!

Song Ren's cold pupils quickly turned among the countless pieces of cloth.

Suddenly reach out!

A giant black centipede as big as a person was pinched in Song Ren's palm.

At the same time, another shadow rushed halfway, but was blocked by Big Bear, who suddenly jumped up with a body full of tendons.

It is a three-tailed fox with a pink body.

Big Bear chuckled and said, "Sister Fox, you'd better not move. Something as soft and cute as you usually becomes crunchy when chewed."

"Xiongxiong, I have a lot of experience in this area."

Three-tailed fox: “…”

On the other side, the giant centipede captured by Song Ren suddenly spoke in human language: "Damn Taoist priest, how dare you meddle in other people's business!"

"Be careful or my ancestors will peel off your skin!"

Song Ren said indifferently: "If you can talk, then say more. Where is your ancestor hiding now?"

The giant centipede looked up in surprise: "Huh?"

What do you mean?
Why would my ancestor hide?

Seeing this, Song Ren knew that he couldn't ask anything more.

He crushed the centipede monster, which had only been practicing for a few hundred years, to pieces with his backhand.

The exploded light green plasma splashed all over the room!

Previously, this fellow had been hiding inside the county magistrate's back, and had already devoured the internal organs of that body, thus concealing the evil spirit quite well.

If not for a little bit of the vixen's scent leaking out, it would be really easy to be noticed.

Song Ren turned and left. When he passed by the three-tailed fox, who was stiff and dared not move, he did not look at her. The two of them just passed each other calmly.

The three-tailed fox's suddenly tense mind slowly relaxed.

The fox glanced at Song Ren's back and thought to himself that his luck seemed to be good and he could get away with it.

But just as he looked away, a bright red color suddenly appeared on the other side.

A blood-stained spear flipped over and flew back, and instantly enlarged and enlarged in the reflection of the pupil!
Boom!
After the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the three-tailed fox's vision suddenly turned and finally stopped.

He looked at the headless fox corpse with some surprise and fell to the ground.

With one last look, I subconsciously looked forward, and then forward again.

However, he could only barely catch a glimpse of a figure with a gun crossing the threshold, and then his pupils quickly dilated and lost all luster.

Song Ren glanced at the slightly warm sunlight above his head:

No wonder this place is so dead.

The county magistrate has been dead for who knows how many days, and he has been controlled by a centipede demon all the time. He also has an affair with a fox demon every day. It would be strange if he could still stand up.

Song Ren asked his lawyer to call all the clerks from the six departments of the yamen.

Everyone sat in a row and ate fruit.

In front of Song Ren, everyone stood in a row obediently.

Song Ren began to use both kindness and force:
"The county magistrate is dead. You should follow the procedures. But before the new county magistrate takes office, the rest of you better do your job well."

"I really don't ask much of you guys."

"Either make sure you do your best, or do a little better each time than the last time."

"As long as you take the right path, the little details don't matter."

Then, Song Ren added with a smile:

"I have always loved peace, so you don't have to feel too anxious or stressed."

“It doesn’t matter even if you can’t do it.”

"At best, I'll just kill your whole family."

"..." The clerk in the sixth room breathed a sigh of relief at first, but after hearing the last part, he broke out in a cold sweat.

They looked at Song Ren cautiously, all of them were worried.

Song Ren "kindly" appeased the officials in the county government office, and finally kept Xiong Da in the county government office to monitor the officials and carry out the 007 overtime operation.

Then he set out again alone.

Before leaving, I still ask for divination.

The most auspicious direction is southeast.

However, that place seems to be outside the city...

Song Ren originally wanted to find an inn in the city to rest up, but now it seems that he will have to sleep on the ground outdoors again tonight.

……

When night began to fall, heavy rain suddenly began to fall from the sky.

Song Ren searched all the way in the southeast direction, but apart from killing a few monsters, he didn't gain much.

When the night rain came, he found a secluded place in the wild.

It seemed to be an abandoned courtyard, with four characters on a plaque on the door wall:

Zhengqi Villa.

That is the charity cemetery in ancient times.

The so-called "positive energy" is usually used to suppress the negative energy and evil spirits of the dead.

When Song Ren came closer, he heard the gate creaking with the sound of wind and rain.

With just a slight push, it fell inward with a loud bang.

This noise also caused many frightened bats to rush out of the door.

As soon as you pass through the main door, you will see a row of neatly arranged, dilapidated coffins placed in the inner hall.

Song Ren had already smelled a bit of evil spirit from this place, and then he thought of the name of the villa and the familiar faces he had seen before.

He had already roughly remembered some of the plot of this place.

This should be the hiding place of the giant corpse.

Song Ren was just about to go look for it when he suddenly moved his ears.

I could hear the sound of hurried horse hooves coming from the wilderness behind me.

At the same time, further underground, something was moving freely below.

Song Ren turned around in the shadow of the room, and with a pair of sharp eyes, he saw a familiar face getting off the horse.

The scholar's robe was somewhat familiar, but the difference was that the man had grown a beard and his face looked a little more weathered. He was holding a small package in his arms, and at the moment he looked frightened, constantly looking around.

Tsk, this scholar is still the same as always.

Ning Caichen tied up the horse first, and then walked carefully into Zhengqi Villa. Before he noticed Song Ren in the corner, he saw a room full of coffins.

As thunder roared, he trembled with fear: "I won't disturb you. I'm only staying here for one night. You don't need to greet me."

Song Ren glanced at him playfully, then turned and looked behind him.

The people who were walking underground have also jumped out.

The person who came was the Kunlun monk Zhiqiu Yiye, who was covered in mud and panting. He pointed at Ning Caichen for a long time, as if exhausted. He hugged a pillar in the house and kept complaining:
"Are you kidding me? Why are you riding your horse around and around? Don't you have any goal at all?"

"I was running around in circles down there, and I chased out all the earthworms and centipedes on the ground."

Ning Caichen thought he had seen a ghost and backed away in fear, saying, "You, you, don't come over here. You look so pale, you must have died a tragic death. But every wrong has its perpetrator, you should go find the person who hurt you!"

Zhiqiu Yiye was still breathing hard: "Then I was right to find you. You rode my horse and ran away, making me chase you underground for a whole day!"

Ning Caichen was stunned. He had just escaped from prison with the help of an old cellmate.

When I saw a horse in the grass at the back of the mountain, I subconsciously thought that it was the horse prepared for me by the old man who had planned everything.

So, I misunderstood?
No, no!
Ning Caichen: "Are you a human?"

Zhiqiu Yiye said angrily: "I feel that you are insulting my personality!"

Seeing that the two seemed to be talking endlessly, Song Ren had to interrupt and said, "Sorry to bother you, it's late at night, can you be quiet for a while?"

When Ning Caichen heard the sudden voice behind him, he was stunned, as if he was frozen in place, and subconsciously thought it was a ghost.

Zhiqiu Yiye was also startled. He was so busy expressing his dissatisfaction with Ning Caichen that he didn't notice that there were other people in the charity cemetery.
