Until Qin Shaoyou entered the territory of Mianyuan County, he saw that the villages and towns along the way were all as usual. There were no signs of voodoo plague outbreaks, and no traces of the Black Lotus Sect. In the fields, there were busy figures carrying farm tools. , And among the streams and rivers, there are children catching fish and playing carefree, so I feel relieved.

After Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others saw this scene, they all showed gratified smiles.

Isn't this peaceful and prosperous scene what they expect and want to protect?

It seems that during the time they left Mianyuan County, the colleagues in the county town demon department, as well as the county government and the city emperor's temple, all did well.

While Qin Shaoyou was looking around, an official guarding beside the river was also staring at them with a knife.

The official had good eyesight, and quickly recognized Qin Shaoyou and the others, and then let go of the hand holding the knife, and saluted them with fists, and then turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared.

Obviously, this is a ghost patrolling in the Chenghuang Temple.

Looking at the children playing and fishing in the stream, it is not difficult to guess that this ghost messenger must have been patrolling here. When he saw a child playing in the stream, he stopped and reined in his steps to protect him secretly to prevent any child from being disturbed. Beware of drowning.

Qin Shaoyou and others came galloping on horseback, which aroused the vigilance of the ghost messenger, so he held his knife and looked at them to see who they were.

Although the ghost disappeared in clouds and smoke, Qin Shaoyou knew that he was still in this stream, secretly protecting the children.

Therefore, Qin Shaoyou bowed his hands to the place where Guichai was just now, and then led the people and the carriage carrying Cen Biqing, and continued towards the direction of Mianyuan County.

Cen Biqing is still in a deep sleep, and she doesn't know how long this 'hibernation' will last.

She was in a deep sleep, unable to maintain her human form, showing the body of the big green python.

So along the way, Qin Shaoyou and others could only get a carriage to drag her, and at the same time cover her with a hemp cloth, so as not to frighten the people along the way.

Now that he was on the road again, Cen Biqing on the carriage didn't know if he turned over or what happened, the thick snake tail fell out of the sackcloth and dragged on the ground.

Seeing this, Zhu Xiucai hurried forward to pick up Shewei, and stuffed it back into Maburi.

This snake tail is slippery, and it is quite comfortable to hold...

Anyway, Xu Xian still knows how to play.

Zhu Xiucai wanted to touch it more, but considering that after Cen Biqing woke up, he might not be able to beat him, so he pressed down on the idea of ​​dying.

Not long after Qin Shaoyou and the others left, an old farmer who was working in the field by the side of the road suddenly straightened up and turned to ask his son who was also working in the field.

"Did a snake tail fall from the carriage just now?"

"Yes, the tail of a big green snake is thicker than my arm!"

The old farmer was sure that he read it right, and immediately ordered: "Run to the town quickly, and report what you saw just now to the night watchman at the monster hunting shop in the town, and ask them to come and check this group of people to see if there is anyone there. no problem."

"Okay." The son responded happily, put down the farm tools in his hand, and ran to the town along the trail.

So, after Qin Shaoyou and the others walked for a while, they heard the sound of horseshoes rushing along the official road, coming from the front and back of them, and saw the flying dust.

Monk Ma immediately ordered the night watchmen to form an array, mainly to protect Cen Biqing who was still sleeping.

Qin Shaoyou used his eyesight to see through the flying dust in the front and back, and clearly saw the identity of the person who came.

"It's one of our own."

He waved his hand to signal everyone not to be nervous.

Sure enough, when the team approached, many people in the team recognized each other—it was the little banner officer in the monster hunting shop in a nearby town, and the shackles and strong men under his hands.

And this group of people, after running close, also recognized Qin Shaoyou, Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others, and after a moment of surprise, they hurried forward to salute.

Zhu Xiucai is very familiar with this little banner official... No, it should be said that Zhu Xiucai, who has a social aura, has a close relationship with everyone he has worked with.

After all, there are quite a few people who have visited the Sand Dance Theater together and met each other honestly.

Zhu Xiucai cupped his hands with the little flag official, and joked with a smile: "Old Zeng, you are so aggressive, it doesn't look like you are going to welcome our adults. Could something have happened?"

Zeng Xiaoqi explained with some embarrassment: "It's all a misunderstanding. A farmer came to our Monster Hunting Shop to report that he saw a group of people of unknown origin. There is also a big snake hidden inside, I am worried that someone with malicious intentions will come to my Mianyuan County to cause trouble, let us hurry over and check..."

After figuring out what happened, Qin Shaoyou was not only not angry, but also very happy.

The fact that the farmer was able to take the initiative to report to the Xunyao shop shows that the people in Mianyuan County are very vigilant.

On the other hand, it shows that the Yaozhen Division and Yaoxun Shop in Mianyuan County have really won the trust of the people.

During this mission, Qin Shaoyou saw that in some places, the people were afraid to go to the demon town and the demon shop to report the case. Even if they were really attacked by demons, they could avoid the yamen without going to the yamen.

Because after going to the yamen to report the case, the ghosts are still gone, so they seem to have been scraped off a layer of skin!

The final result is often that demons harm people, corrupt officials in the yamen seek wealth, and the reputation of the government plummets...

Qin Shaoyou reported all the things he saw along the way to the sixth sister.

The red-clothed emissary not only has the duty of assisting the local government in cracking down on major crimes and important crimes, but also has the duty of monitoring the yamen of demon towns in various places, and rectifying the wind and eradicating discipline!

At this moment, apart from being happy that Zhen Yaosi has been recognized by the people here in Mianyuan County, Qin Shaoyou is also very satisfied with the way Zeng Xiaoqi and others have handled it.

"When you received the report, you didn't neglect your duties or ignore it indifferently. Instead, the chief officer personally led a team to investigate the case as soon as possible. You did a good job."

While Zeng Xiaoqi was excited~lightnovelpub.net~, he still did not forget to be humble: "Thank you for the compliment, my lord, these are what we should do."

"In this world, there are many people who can't even do what they should do."

Qin Shaoyou sighed, and then continued to head towards Mianyuan County, while asking Zeng Xiaoqi about the situation in Mianyuan County these days.

According to Zeng Xiaoqi, in the past days, many refugees did flood into Mianyuan County, but they were all settled properly by An Mutong.

Previously, due to the troubles of the Black Lotus Sect, coupled with the rampage of zombie sons and demons, many farmlands were abandoned. After the refugees arrived, An Mutong organized them to reclaim wasteland and cultivate the previously abandoned farmland.

In addition to giving food to refugees through work, An Mutong also promised that those who work actively will be granted land.

This promise not only fully mobilized the enthusiasm of the refugees, but also greatly reduced the crime rate of the refugees.

However, under the arrangement of Ye Zhiqiu, Cai Guizhong and others, as well as the active investigation and reporting by the common people, no matter whether it is the spies of Qingtang or the demons of the Black Lotus Sect, they will be targeted soon after they arrive in Mianyuan County. , There is no time to do things, they will fall into the trap and be hunted and killed.

It is precisely because of this that Mianyuan County can be as stable as an old dog when voodoo epidemics broke out in other prefectures and counties in Yizhou, and black lotus sect riots broke out, and everything is as usual.

After listening to these introductions, Qin Shaoyou, combined with the scenes he saw with his own eyes on the road, was finally completely relieved.

It is indeed right to follow the mass line.

After sending Zeng Xiaoqi away and driving for a long time, Qin Shaoyou and the others finally returned to Mianyuan County.

However, after entering the Yamen of Zhenyaosi in the county, Qin Shaoyou found that the atmosphere here seemed to be a little strange.
