This county is no different from other places, but because there have been more refugees recently, the guards guarding the city gates have to do a lot more duty.

After carefully inspecting the guides and identity documents of Qin Shaoyou and others, they checked the luggage on the horse.

It's a pity that although the city gate guards checked carefully, Qin Shaoyou and others were better at hiding weapons and equipment. They didn't let the city gate guards discover the strong bows and armor they were carrying, but only found out Got some swords.

Everyone knows that the current world is not safe, and it is normal to carry a sword for self-defense when traveling. On the contrary, people will be suspicious if they do not carry weapons.

The guards at the city gate didn't become suspicious, so Zhu Xiucai stuffed a few pieces of broken silver into the team officer in time, and the latter weighed it in his hand before ordering to let it go with satisfaction.

"These people have been checked, there is no problem, let them in."

After a pause, the team officer kindly reminded: "The station is in the east of the city. If you want to live better, there are inns in the city, but the price is higher." Then he glanced at Su Jianqing who was sitting on horseback , added: "Take care of your child, and don't let her out of sight."

"Thank you, sir, we people, as long as we have a safe place to spend the night, how can we choose good or bad? The post station is very good." Zhu Xiucai thanked and motioned for everyone to lead the horses into the city.

As soon as he passed through the city gate, small heads poked out from the luggage on the horse's back.

At a glance, it seems that there are mushroom heads growing on the luggage.

These little heads all looked at the city gate guards with curious eyes.

It was those baby ghosts.

They were originally handed over to Qiurong, but after hearing that Qin Shaoyou would be in danger when he went to Zhouzhou this time, Qiurong handed over the baby ghost and the ghost raising pot to Su Jianqing, and asked her to take it with her, in case of danger on the way. Useful.

The city gate guards checked the luggage on the horse just now, but they found nothing because they were blindfolded by these baby ghosts.

This is the so-called ghost covering the eyes.

The city gate guards in this county are either strong ordinary people or rank nine warriors. With their strength, in front of the baby ghosts, let alone not be affected, it is even difficult to find them.

Although there was a local night watchman sitting next to the city gate, he was shielded by Cui Yougui's spell, so he couldn't notice the situation here at all.

In fact, if Qin Shaoyou and the others directly revealed their identity as night watchmen, they would not have to undergo these inspections at all.

But considering Cui Yougui's divination results, they used their identity as a caravan as a cover along the way.

In the town of demons, there are all kinds of guides and certificates for various identities, and all of them are issued by the government, so there is no problem in the inspection.

Seeing the baby ghost poking its head out, Su Jianqing, who was sitting on horseback, took out the jar for raising ghosts, and the group of baby ghosts obediently returned to the jar.

During this period of time, they were often taken care of by Su Jianqing because they were too bearish.

If Qiu Rong used tenderness and care to make them feel the love of a mother, then Su Jianqing taught them a lesson with fists and kicks, making them obediently and accept this big sister from the bottom of their hearts.

Because if you don't admit it, you will be beaten even worse...

The baby ghost who surrendered to Su Jianqing's majestic power naturally obeyed her orders and arrangements very well.

Su Jianqing put away the baby ghost, opened her mouth, and swallowed the ghost jar directly into her stomach.

As for the guards at the city gate, when the baby ghost looked at them curiously, they all shuddered.

They felt as if something was looking at them from behind, but when they turned their heads to check, they found nothing.

The next reaction of the group of city gate guards was somewhat beyond Qin Shaoyou's and others' expectations.

They immediately reported the situation to the night watchman at the city gate.

The night watchman immediately took out the yin qi compass from his arms, not only checked around the city gate, but also stopped Qin Shaoyou and others who passed through the city gate during this time period.

It was not until it was confirmed that the yin qi compass did not respond, that Su Jianqing was released again. Although Su Jianqing was a ghost, she practiced the orthodox kung fu of Taoism, and the yin ghost breath on her body had already been cultivated into spiritual energy. It is not clear that she is a human or a ghost.

And with the naked eye, unless she is of a high level or has some special supernatural powers, she will only think that this girl is really cute and cute.

After walking a certain distance, Sun Xianzong just turned his head and glanced at the city gate, and commented: "Although the guards and night watchmen in this county are not strong enough, they are very vigilant. In the past two days, we walked After several villages and towns, the guards and night watchmen here are the most responsible."

Zhu Xiucai guessed: "Probably because of the need to guard against the refugees. When there are more refugees, there will be more ghosts. Many ghosts also like to mix with the refugees, eating people, and at the same time bewitching and driving the refugees to set off a bigger wave." They are probably afraid that ghosts will mix with the people entering the city and cause trouble."

Everyone nodded in unison, feeling that his analysis was reasonable.

But at this moment, Qin Shaoyou suddenly opened his mouth and asked them: "Have you noticed that since we entered the city, we haven't seen a single child on the street?"

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback for a moment, then frowned, and said one after another:

"It's true. Since entering this county, I haven't seen a single child."

"This is really weird. No matter in Mianyuan County or the towns we passed by, you can see children playing on the street. Only here, there is not a single child on the street..."

"Not only did we not see the child, but the people along the way also looked weird when they saw Daoist Dao."

Some people thought of what happened in Mianyuan County, and guessed: "Could it be that there are also demons from the Black Lotus Sect here, who are using magic to turn children into cats and dogs and other livestock? But the wild cats and dogs on the street , not many."

Qin Shaoyou did not participate in these discussions, his eyes fell on a residential house on the side of the road.

Behind the window of this folk house, a child's head poked out.

He opened his eyes wide, watching the scene on the street outside the house curiously and expectantly~lightnovelpub.net~ But soon, the child was taken away from the window by his mother by his ears.

At the same time, a wooden board covered the window.

Although Qin Shaoyou couldn't see the child's situation anymore, he could still hear his mother's scolding: "How many times have I told you, you can't look outside, you can't look outside, why don't you listen? Do you want to die? "

Qin Shaoyou couldn't help frowning.

Just lying on the window and looking out, will it be life-threatening?

What is the reason?

Could it be that there are really ghosts in this county?

But looking at the conscientiousness of the city gate guards and night watchmen here, if there are ghosts and ghosts, they should deal with them as soon as possible, right?

But according to what the mother said, it seems that this situation is no longer a day or two, nor does it happen twice at the same time.

Is it because the night watchman here is negligent, or is the haunted ghost too powerful? Or... is there another reason?

A series of questions arose in Qin Shaoyou's mind.

After thinking about it, he turned sideways and patted the luggage hanging on the left side of the horse's back.

In this bag, there are two small wooden statues of gods, which are the day and night parades in the Town God's Temple in Mianyuan County.

After patting his luggage, Qin Shaoyou said in a low voice: "Old Liao, go and help me see the situation of the children in this city."

"As ordered."

Inside the luggage, came an indistinct voice.

Immediately afterwards, a figure floated out of the luggage, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, without the pedestrians on the street noticing.

This figure is none other than the former Liao Lishi, who is now on the daily parade in Mianyuan County.

Investigating the surroundings during the day and looking for people's sentiments is exactly what he is good at. Even if this place is not Mianyuan County, he can still display some of his supernatural powers.
