Chapter 307 Clues
Amu still doesn't want to believe the corpse thing。
But when he came to the restaurant where Qin Feng and others were and saw the more than ten corpses, his face turned pale with shock. 。
His colleagues from the Demon Slayer Department who came with him also had trembling legs.。
How could they have imagined that behind the so-called plague in Shuliang City was actually a plague of corpses?！
“What should I do? "Amu trembled.。
“Dispose of these corpses first to avoid causing panic among the people, and then report the matter to your Sizheng。
It is urgent to seek help from other sources and arrangements need to be made as soon as possible. " Qin Feng said。
“I see. "Amu responded.。
Knowing the seriousness of the matter, the entire group of Demon Slayer Department in Shuliang City acted very quickly and quickly quietly moved the corpse of the ghoul out of the restaurant. 。
In order to confirm where the tiger patterns on these corpses came from, Qin Feng and others followed and returned to the Demon Slayer Department with Amu. 。
On the way, Qin Feng thought about the infected people and the different strengths of the infected corpse poison, so he asked aloud: "Amu, for the people who were isolated before, the location of the south house and the north house were chosen at random. Yes?？”
Amu heard this, shocked the head: "When we resettled those people, we divided them according to the streets where they originally lived.。
People who are close to the south live in the south house, and people who are close to the north live in the north house.。
After all, the infection symptoms of those people are too scary, and it is not surprising that they will pass away anytime.。
This arrangement is also to facilitate the family members of those people to find a place to worship when they are cremated in the future.。”
Qin Feng hearing this looked thoughtful: "Later, you will give me all the statistics of the places where the infected people originally lived.。”
Amu didn't know why, but still nodded and said: "Okay, Young Master Qin 。”
The entire group soon arrived at the Demon Slayer Department and then divided into two groups.。
Shi Zhiming and Zhang Tiannan went to see Sizheng here to discuss countermeasures and seek help.。
Qin Feng and Cang Feilan, led by Amu, came to the place where Shuliang City documents and history books were stored.。
Arranging colleagues to do statistics, Amu looked at Qin and Feng who were constantly flipping through the books and asked: "Young Master Qin, what are you looking for? There are a lot of documents here, and there are only two of you, so it will definitely take a lot of money to a lot of time。
If possible, I would also like to do something。”
“That's the best thing. "Qin Feng did not refuse. He took the paper and brush directly from the desk beside him, and then drew the pattern in his mind.。
After a while, the image of a ferocious and roaring tiger head appeared on the page.。
Qin Feng explained: "Those ghouls all have similar patterns on their bodies. If we can find out where the patterns come from, we can also know the true identities behind these ghouls."。”
Amu glanced at the tiger's head, then nodded, and started searching together。
On the other side, Shi Zhiming and Zhang Tiannan took more than ten corpses of ghouls and found Lord Li of the Demon Slayer Department. 。
When the latter saw the corpses of the dead ghosts, he was so shocked that he froze on the spot: "How...how could there be so many？”
Shi Zhiming heard something unusual. What the other party said was not that he was shocked that there really were ghouls, but that he was shocked by the number of ghouls.。
In other words, this man named Li had really known for a long time that there was a plague of corpses and ghosts in Shuliang City.！
He immediately frowned and shouted coldly: "Great Qian Demon Slayer Department. The law stipulates that disasters above Class B must be reported to superiors and must not be concealed.。
As Sizheng of the Demon Slayer Department of Shuliang City, how dare you conceal the report of the ghoul? How many heads do you have that can be chopped off?？
Or do you want to be imprisoned in Heavenly City 9th layer prison?！”
Si Zheng, surnamed Li, heard this, staggered, and said hurriedly: "Master Shishi, please listen to my explanation, there are reasons why I do this.。”
Shi Zhiming The two looked at each other in blank dismay, and then listened to each other's words——
Shuliang City is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there are few demons and ghosts. The people here live and work in peace and contentment, and the Demon Slayer Department is also at ease.。
When the man surnamed Li came here to serve as Secretary, he thought he had just accepted a good job. Normally, he only had to patrol the city and had nothing else to do.。
He thought that such days could last until the day he died, but a few months ago, everything changed。
dark and windy night, I always feel like something is going to happen。
A scream broke the silence of the night in the alleyway of the city. The patrolling demon slayer discovered a corpse of a commoner, and then saw that thing - a ghoul.！
The strength of the ghoul is only Second Cycle Calamity Power at best. As long as you are careful, it is not difficult to deal with ordinary seventh-grade martial artists.。
The two demon slayers joined forces and killed him in a matter of seconds, then hurried back to the Demon Slayer Department to report.。
When he saw the corpse, his face turned pale with fright, and his first reaction was to report it。
But someone unexpectedly appeared and asked him to press the matter.。
“who is it? Shi Zhiming asked with a frown.。
“It's the county magistrate, the king. "The man named Li swallowed a mouthful of saliva and replied like this. 。
“absurd! Shi Zhiming cursed angrily: "The government and the Demon Slayer Department belong to two organizations. Even if the other government is Level 1, it has no right to transfer you to the Demon Slayer Department." ！
You actually listened to him and concealed such a major event? ！”
“What you don’t know is that Mr. Wang is the magistrate sent here by Heavenly City. His identity behind his back is astonishing. How could I dare to mess with such a person?？
Moreover, Mr. Wang also made it clear that he had known about the corpse ghost for a long time, and Heavenly City sent him here to handle the matter secretly.。
I was dubious about this statement at first, but after that, there were indeed no corpses in Shuliang City, so I believed it.。
How could I have imagined that there would be so many of these things in the city. "At the end of the conversation, the man named Li seemed to know that he had made a big mistake and kept blaming himself.。
“It is useless to say this now. The top priority is to seek reinforcements from other places, and then find out where the corpses in the city come from as soon as possible.。
If I guessed correctly, there must be a corpse king with high Calamity Power behind these corpse ghosts. It has never appeared, so it must have a big plan. "Shi Zhiming said solemnly 。
“I will arrange for people to go to Heavenly City to seek support. "The man named Li immediately responded.。
“When the Huarong Road in the Southern Territory is opened, the hunting envoys from the Demon Slayer Department will often appear at the inn. You can send someone to leave a message there.。”
“understand。”
After everything was explained, Shi Zhiming took Zhang Tiannan and left the Demon Slayer Department and headed towards the magistrate's office.。
He wanted to see what was the reason that made the magistrate dare to conceal the disaster of corpses.！
Seeing the two of them walking away, the fearful expression on Lord Li's face slowly faded away. He took out a piece of white paper from his arms. The content written on it was exactly the same as what he and Shi Zhiming had just said.。
Lit Bai Xuan on the candle until it burned to ashes, he called one of his men and said: "Let those Hundred Ghosts Daoist continue to suppress Yin Qi underground in Shuliang City, and don't let those ghosts come out.。
Also, keep sending people to feed the things in the cave, and don’t stop for a day.。”
The visitor's face was deathly pale, and he replied with a trembling voice: "I understand.。”
