Reincarnation of the concubine of the apocalypse

Chapter 125 Taoxi Village

Afterwards, with one belt and three, and three masters and servants of Ming Yujin, they plundered towards the gate of the city.

Later, I thought that the location of the small mountain village was a bit hidden and hard to find, and Liang Chen was only mentioned by people, and I didn't even know the exact location.

Yi Tian paused for a while, then stopped taking the three of them to the gate of the city, but turned to Jing Zhaoyin.

Jing Zhaoyin is not only in charge of public security in the capital city, but also in charge of the affairs of the counties and villages within a hundred miles outside the capital city. Although it is not directly under his jurisdiction, if there is something real, he should have received a report from the county he belongs to.

At this time, the New Year's Eve had passed, and it was naturally Xie Pingzhang, Jing Zhao Yinling, who greeted Ming Yujin and the others.

However, this time, Ming Yujin did not dare to accept his gift, but politely shouted: "Uncle Xie."

This "Uncle Xie" yelled Mr. Xie so flattered that he didn't even dare to say it.

Even though he knew that the Anping County Lord had a good relationship with his own daughter, he still couldn't bear this honorific title, and kept yelling that there is no difference between respect and respect, and etiquette cannot be discarded.

And Ming Yujin can't do what he wants, since he is the father of sister Lan Xuan, he naturally has to be more respectful, anyway, he can't bear those vain courtesy.

But looking at Mr. Xie's cautious and cautious appearance, I don't know if he will faint after waiting a few days to find out that he will be crowned as Mr. Taishan, the son of Xiaoyao Wang?

Putting aside these thoughts, he directly explained the purpose of coming.

It's just that Xie Pingzhang has too many official duties on weekdays, how can he know so clearly, especially during the New Year's festival, the situation in the capital is frequent, so naturally he can't allocate so much energy to pay attention to the affairs of the small mountain village.

Fortunately, there is still someone who knows, and this person is Jing Zhaoyin Shuling who is usually in charge of sending and receiving documents.

From Jingzhao Yin Shuling Office, I learned that the official document submitted by the county government of the mountain village did have records about this matter, and recorded the detailed address and route.

After verifying the matter was correct and having the detailed address, Ming Yujin bid farewell to Mr. Xie, and the group of four flew away again.

Jing Zhaoyin Shuling stared at the direction of the few people for a long time, and then looked at his lord magistrate suspiciously, "My lord, this is the Lord of Anping County..."

Xie Pingzhang was also looking into the distance with his hands behind his back, but when he heard the subordinate's question, he stroked his beautiful temples with a really interesting smile, and murmured: "This Anping County Lord is really a wonderful person."

She's completely old, treacherous and cunning, and she doesn't have the cautious appearance just now, so Ming Yujin also has moments of misjudgment.

Looking at the subordinates who were still waiting for his confusion, he put away his smile and reprimanded: "You and I are not allowed to talk about the matter of the Anping county lord. You can check the household registration sources of those women and children clearly. It's too late." It's been a long time, and it's almost time to go into the coffin, if this matter can't be done well, the black gauze hat you put on can be given back to the saint!"

After finishing speaking, he threw down the written order with a bitter face, waved his robe and strode towards the court with windy steps.

And the four of Ming Yujin, after flying for an hour, also came to the small mountain village where strange things happen frequently, Taoxi Village. At this time, it will be past noon.

The few people were not in a hurry to go in, they stood on the hillside not far away and looked down at the place called Taoxi Village in front of them.

At this time of day when the sun is just right, from a distance, the village that was supposed to be full of vitality looks very desolate, depressing, and dead.

Ming Yujin sensed with her mental power that the people in the entire village, no matter how old or young, were in a bad state of mind. To describe it in one word, it would be panic.

Naturally, she also found out the location of the young man Liangchen and others wanted to save. It was a stone house made of stones. He also obediently stayed in the stone house and did not escape. He was indeed determined to die.

However, if his investigation is good, this young man is just an ordinary person, how could it be related to the frequent fires?

Seeing this, Ming Yujin decided to leave him alone for the time being, and find out the anomalies in the village first.

Taoxi Village is quite large, with about 300 households in front and back. At first glance, many houses in the village have traces of being burned, and a lot of houses have been burned, leaving only a piece of black charred land.

And not far from Taoxi Village is a small stream, which encircles half of the village in Taoxi Village.

People have lived along the water since ancient times, which is not surprising.

To the surprise of Ming Yujin and the others, the water of that brook was red, and it was still bubbling with bubbles and mist. It seems to be the usual way.

"Go and see."

Ming Yujin ordered that no abnormalities could be detected with mental strength.

When the four of them reached the stream, Ming Yujin bent down and put his hand into the water without waiting for Liangchen Yueqing to stop him, but it was ice?So how do these bubbles and mist form?
And the water ability in the body has not fluctuated, which means that there is no toxin in the water. Look at the old women not far away, too, can the poisonous people wash and wash their clothes here?
He sighed secretly that he had thought too much, but the water was really red and weird.

Yi Tian beside him also knelt down, touched the water with his hands, and put the water from his fingertips under his nose to smell it.

"Ying Tian, ​​can you see anything unusual?"

This time Zi Yitian also looked puzzled, when he heard Ming Yujin's question, he raised his eyebrows and shook his head to show he didn't know.

Yi Tian didn't know anymore, so Ming Yujin racked his brains and couldn't think of a reason, so he took Liangchen and Yueqing to the place where the old laundry women were, wanting to see Let's see if we can get some advice from the villagers.

And Yitian has already hidden her figure.

"aunt."

Liang Chen's soft call interrupted the action of a plainly dressed old woman with a weathered face, who was pounding and washing clothes.

Hearing the sound, she raised her head and saw three beautiful little girls, the old woman was puzzled, whose family's little lady is this, why did she come to their village?
Thinking about it in his heart, he asked, "How many young ladies are they?"

"Auntie, the three of us sisters came to Shuangxi Village to look for relatives. We just entered the village and found out that the house of the relative we were looking for was burned down a few days ago, and no one was there. So I want to ask Auntie about something." With a bit of sadness, a bit of depression, and a bit of frustration.

Ming Yujin looked at her, she was also a queen, but she had to follow suit, her eyebrows and eyes drooping.

I have to say, it's done pretty well.

Yueqing doesn't need to change anything, just keep a straight face.

When the aunt heard that she was looking for someone, she raised her hand to wipe the water stains on the corner of her clothes, and motioned Ming Yujin and the others to sit down on the rock beside her. Fang Chang sighed and said, "What are you looking for?" Which family?"

"My surname is He, and my name is Dahai. I can do some carpentry. They are distant relatives of our family. We haven't contacted them for a long time. How could we know that after we found them, we heard the news that their family was all killed." Liang Chen pretended to wipe the corners of his eyes, and said replied.

This He Dahai's family was naturally recorded in the official document, and it happened to be borrowed by Liang Chen for a while.

Hearing the words, the aunt stretched out her callused hand, patted Liang Chen's shoulder lightly and comforted him, "It turns out that he is a relative of everyone, little lady, don't be too sad."

"Auntie, do you know how this disaster happened? Knowing the ins and outs, we sisters can go back and have an explanation with our parents." Liang Chen nodded sadly.

The aunt sighed heavily when she heard the words, and slowly narrated what happened in Taoxi Village in the past month or so in an old voice.

"This matter has to start more than a month ago, more than a month ago..."

Naturally, Ming Yujin didn't want to hear the aunt tell her what she already knew, but wanted to see if there were any omissions or things that people didn't notice through the aunt's memories.

From the memory of the aunt, Ming Yujin discovered something strange.

First of all, the strange fire in this village first appeared in the small woods not far from Taoxi Village, and then appeared in the village. Moreover, since it appeared, it has been burning continuously one after another.

Even wet laundry that has just been washed and hung to dry can catch fire on its own.

Especially when the people in the village discovered the strangeness of the fire and took precautions, the mysterious strange fire that seemed to appear with spirituality was almost crazy.

Today is the east of the village, tomorrow is the west of the village, and the day after tomorrow is the south of the village and the north of the village. In short, there are fires of all sizes in the entire Taoxi Village almost every day. The strangest thing is that the fires all appear suddenly. He was exhausted and unable to be rescued.

What's more, many fires broke out at night, and when they broke out, they were full of flames, and the people in the house had no time to escape, and they were buried in the sea of ​​flames.

Since then, this strange fire has been like a ghostly will-o'-the-wisp, spreading everywhere, entangled in Taoxi Village, and can't disappear.

There were constant house fires, and people who could not escape lost their lives every few days. The fear of death enveloped the hearts of Taoxi villagers infinitely, making people terrified all day long.

Seeing this, the villagers packed up their bags and went to relatives if they had somewhere to go. Those who had nowhere to go could only stick to Taoxi Village and search around, hoping to find out the reason and restore peace to Taoxi Village.

After all, the ancestors have lived here for generations, and they are naturally unwilling to abandon their hometown if it is not a last resort.

Those who remained were fighting the fire everywhere while looking for the reason.

Soon, a young man surnamed Wen appeared in the sight of the villagers. Some careful villagers realized that as long as the young man stayed for a long time, a fire would break out within an hour after he left.

It was only then that everyone discovered that the adoptive parents of the young man surnamed Wen were the first to suffer. What's even more bizarre was that they lived under the same roof. There were no burns on his body, as if Vulcan couldn't get close to him.

At that time, the strange fires were not so frequent, so the villagers didn't think much about it, they just thought that the young man was lucky and escaped.

Once there is doubt, it will naturally overturn the previous thinking.

Some people thought that the reason why the young man was not burned by the fire must be due to the strange fire, maybe the young man accidentally offended the evil fire god, and the evil fire god came to take revenge!

There is a saying that three people become a tiger, and if there are too many people who doubt it, the result will naturally be out of control.

Since then, the villagers believed that the fire must have started because of this young man, and there must be something weird about this young man that made the evil fire god unable to get close to him, so they angered others.

And the young Lang Xu also discovered his strangeness, so when the villagers wanted to tie him up to sacrifice to the evil fire god, they didn't make any struggles, just tied him up with his hands tied.

Ming Yujin frowned slightly, but asked the aunt who had finished speaking another question that was hovering in her heart, "Auntie, is the river in Taoxi Village always so red? Why are there still bubbles and fog?" ?”
