Chapter 489 The crisis in Hongyun Village, the silent voice?
A widow died in a lunatic asylum.
If no one reports the crime, no one from their yamen will take care of it.
Otherwise, you need to handle the case yourself.
Going to the yamen to work as a yamen servant is just an errand.
Of course no one wants to take care of them.
In this troubled world, countless "weeds"-like lives disappear every day.
How could the Yamen manage this?
Unless the person who died had a higher status, and unless too many "weeds" died at one time.
Lin Qinghe's eyes fell on the servant, and the aura of the military commander flashed past.
The servant was already hunched over, but now he was even more frightened and knelt on the ground: "In the past few days...in the past few days, Qi Yuan of the Qi family was sent to a lunatic asylum yesterday..."
"Qi Yuan?" Lin Qinghe frowned, "The son-in-law of the Shen family?"
Half a month ago, the news that Qi Yuan married into the Shen family in Ninghe County caused a sensation in Ninghe County.
Lin Qinghe had met Qi Yuan several times before.
His father was a weapon master who eventually died.
However, the traces of his ancestors were still there, so Qi Yuan was able to find an errand in the government office.
As a result, this guy was lazy and couldn't stand the hardship, so he ran away after only working for half a month.
Over the years, his family's fortune has finally been ruined. Fortunately, he married into the Shen Mansion, otherwise Lin Qinghe felt that he might see Qi Yuan's body on the street corner.
"He?" Lin Qinghe had a look of disdain in his eyes.
He would never suspect that Qi Yuan was involved in this matter.
Not to mention these strange beasts, black and white dogs, even Dean Zhou Wei and Qi Yuan can't defeat them.
"I've seen this kid Qi Yuan, and he can't do it unless... someone from the Shen family takes action.
If the Shen family had taken action, he would have been gone by now.
Or unless the Shen family spends a lot of money to personally ask an alchemist to refine the great medicine for him and improve his foundation." Yamen servant Zhou Hu said from the side.
Lin Qinghe nodded. He had always used Zhou Hu very smoothly.
Suddenly, he thought of something and said softly: "Zhou Hu, in a few days, I will be transferred to the county. Do you want to come with me?"
When the surrounding government officials heard this, they immediately looked at Zhou Hu with envy.
Their leader, Lin Qinghe, had a different background from those of them, he came from a wealthy family.
Coming to Ninghe County is gold-plated.
Zhou Hu was stunned. For some reason, he had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"Boss, I'll talk about this later."
About half an hour later, the people from the Yamen exited the lunatic asylum.
Zhou Hu followed Lin Qinghe, with a worried look on his face: "Boss, you take me to the county, Zhou Hu will never forget it.
It’s just that the general term of a head catcher is at least three years. Why do you want to leave so suddenly? Could it be that... something went wrong in Hongyun Village?"
It has been two and a half years since Lin Qinghe came to Ninghe County. It stands to reason that he can be promoted to the county after another half year.
As a result, there was still half a year left, but he didn’t wait any longer and left directly.
There is something fishy about this.
Recently, villagers have disappeared one after another in Hongyun Village, and Lin Qinghe has been dealing with this matter.
Zhou Hu's suspicion may be related to this incident.
"You are right, it is related to Hongyun Village." Lin Qinghe did not hide anything.
Even if a wealthy family says something random and is heard by the common people, so what?
In this world, a wealthy family doesn't need to hide too much.
"After investigation, the missing people in Hongyun Village were caused by a strange spirit.
This strange spirit is... yellow level, not just an ordinary yellow level!"
Mentioning this, Lin Qinghe looked worried.
The strange spirits in this world can be classified into several levels according to their strength and danger, such as mortal, yellow, mysterious, earth, heaven, god...etc.
The mortal level is the weakest, and some even just suck the man's yang energy, which may only cause injuries to a dozen creatures.
The Huang level is different. The ghosts of the Huang level are enough to cause disaster and kill hundreds of people in a village.
It is very difficult for ordinary county government offices to deal with yellow-level ghosts.
"Yellow level, it's actually yellow level!" Zhou Hu's expression tightened, "Quickly go and notify the people in Hongyun Village to move them all out!"
"We can't move it away." Lin Qinghe shook his head with a helpless expression, "The strange spirit in Hongyun Village is very special. It comes from an ancient well. This ancient well is connected to the underground river of Hongyun Village. Almost all the people in Hongyun Village have drank from it.
The water in the ancient well, they... will all die!"
"Furthermore, the people in Hongyun Village are making Hongyun porcelain day and night, and the last batch to be supplied to Moshan Kingdom will be released soon. They can't leave now!"
Hongyun Village is most famous for its Hongyun Porcelain.
This kind of porcelain is beautiful and crystal clear, and is most favored by dignitaries.
Ten years ago, the Moshan Kingdom went to war with the Ning Kingdom. The Ning Kingdom was defeated and had to cede several lands and pay tribute.
Hongyun porcelain is among the tributes.
The last batch of tributes will be completely burned in half a month and then transported to Fucheng.
Therefore, no matter what, the people in Hongyun Village can only die.
Zhou Hu frowned, with a look of pain on his face.
He understood that Tou's family had learned the news, so they transferred him.
Otherwise, Hongyun Village will be destroyed during his tenure, and his assessment will not be excellent, which will affect his future career.
"Isn't there any way to mobilize a yellow-level military envoy?" Zhou Hu knew this, but he was still very angry.
Hongyun Village has a total of 700 households and a population of over a thousand!
"The ghosts in Hongyun Village are very special. Yellow-level soldiers are not good enough. They need Xuan-level soldiers! Xuan-level soldiers are now entangled in Yeshan Lake. How can they have time to take care of these kiln people?" Lin Qinghe said helplessly.
Although he also felt pity for these people, there was nothing he could do.
The number of Xuan-level military envoys in the Ning Kingdom is very rare.
As for the earth level and heaven level, they are even rarer.
It is even said that the Ning Kingdom does not have a heaven-level military envoy.
The prefecture-level military envoys are already at the peak of Ning Guo's combat power!
"Boss, I, Zhou Hu, can't go to the county with you!" Zhou Hu said through gritted teeth.
When Lin Qinghe heard this, he sighed: "If you abandon Hongyun Village and follow me to Fujun, maybe I won't value you so much."
…
"Is this a ghost?"
"It doesn't look strong either!"
"Sure enough, how can this kind of mini-boss created by the game compare to the physical strength I have exercised myself?"
The night was dark. Qi Yuan looked at a group of strange octopus-like spirits in front of him and let out a sigh.
"Master, hurry... hurry... I can't survive this old slave!"
"Bless me more!"
"Ah, it kissed my mouth and stuffed its tentacles into my mouth, oooh..."
