Zhang Laihai originally wanted to send a few people to the reef island and go back with the one hundred and eleven taels of silver, but at this moment, the big boss actually ordered his men to take the money back and throw it into the sea.
At this moment, his expression changed and he suddenly became unhappy.
"Several guests, when doing business, we pay attention to clear buying and selling, and fair transactions. I helped you deliver it to the reef island, and you still want your money back. This is so immoral. You are still a scholar, and you can't be like this..."
"Oh, how should one be a human being?" Su Hong squinted his eyes and smiled faintly.
"This..." Suddenly, Zhang Lailai didn't know where to start. He had always been called Zhang Lion. Since the lion opened his mouth, it was naturally not a moral thing.
My heart is not open and frank, but my words have no basis.
Su Hong sneered, "I am a gentleman and you are a villain. You have done something unkind and righteous. If I don't kill you, you should thank God and ask for my money back. That is only right. Throwing you into the sea is just right."
Give you a way to survive."
Su Hong no longer paid attention to Zhang Rascal and glanced at Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen knew very well that he would throw the other person into the sea. As for other things, he couldn't think of anything else. He only obeyed the young master's instructions.
The three of them got off the boat, dressed up, and hit the road.
The reef island is not all covered with rocks like the rest of the island. Instead, the scenery inside is extremely pleasant. Now that the winter solstice has passed, although the beginning of spring has not come, the earth has gradually warmed up, the ice and snow have melted, and some animals have begun to wake up from hibernation.
Su Hong saw many wooden houses along the way, but every time he wanted to go up and inquire, he found that there was no one in the house, and the walls were covered with spider webs. It was obvious that no one had lived there for a while.
The furnishings in the house were extremely disordered. It was not that I had planned to leave, but that I had no choice but to leave.
"Young Master, although there are still people on this reef island, they are less than one-tenth of the original island. I am afraid that there are less than fifty people who have settled there now."
Mr. Chen inquired around and then came back to report to Su Hong.
Su Hong frowned and immediately asked, "What about the officials in this place?"
"The whereabouts have long been unknown, and the government office has been abandoned for too long. I am afraid it is related to the strange things on the island." Mr. Chen said calmly.
Su Hong flicked his sleeves, with a cold look on his face, "As a local government official, he doesn't know how to advance and retreat with the people. He is in vain as a court official. After I find out the strange things about the reef island, I will reorganize the reef island."
"Let's go to the government office ahead." Su Hong said, taking the lead in getting on the horse.
The reef island is not big, the entire island is only about a hundred thousand square meters. Not long after, the carriage arrived at the government office, and Su Hong got off.
The two stone lions in front of the door have been damaged by wind and rain, but they are stained with dust from leaves. The slightest dust has fallen on them, but they look extremely ancient.
Walking through the stone steps, Su Hong looked up and saw that the four big characters were even more bumpy, and the original official plaque had become an ordinary wooden block.
Su Hong sighed softly in his heart, "The world is bright and the world is declining, but the government has become like this now, with no one to take care of it, letting the wind and sun blow, and the 'mirror hanging high' in the government office is also tarnished, not to mention the awe-inspiring atmosphere.
, now there is an evil spirit inside."
Government offices, palaces, and academies are the places least likely to be invaded by evil spirits, because these places are all guarded by gods. Every day, thoughts are condensed, and the gods continue to grow, so evil spirits do not dare to approach.
But now, in this government office, the so-called spiritual thoughts have been dissipating over time. If the demon has the opportunity, it will continue to invade.
If an ordinary person stayed in it now, he would immediately become seriously ill and would need a Taoist priest to perform rituals to recover...
"Go in first."
Su Hong took a general look and found that the interior decoration of the government office on Jiaoshi Island was actually quite good. It was just that no one had taken care of it for a long time, which made it look like it was in ruins.
He sighed slightly in his heart, opened his arms, and allowed the aura of awe to surge. After about ten minutes, the evil spirit in the government office was completely eradicated.
Under the influence of the awe-inspiring aura, the originally dark sky became bright. The dark clouds drifted away, and what followed was a blue sky that could even shine through a little bit of the sun's rays.
Although Su Hong is the young marquis, he does not leave all the cleaning work to Tingqin and others, but also participates in it.
The sun slowly sets, the sun sets in the west, warm spring is approaching, but the night still comes earlier than summer.
The candles were slowly lit, and soon the entire government office began to be brightly lit.
"Tingqin, go and bring my books." Su Hong ordered.
"Um."
"Wait a minute~" Su Hong called out to Tingqin.
"What other instructions do you have, young master?" Tingqin turned around with a confused look on her face.
"Don't wrinkle those books."
"I know, young master~" Tingqin heard the words, stuck out his tongue, and went to move the books that Su Hong read on weekdays.
For Su Hong, money is an external possession, but these books are indispensable. It took a while to transport them.
The afterglow of the setting sun gradually disappeared, and darkness came completely. A cold wind blew, which made Su Hong couldn't help but shiver. He wrapped himself in clothes, and then he felt that it was not so cold.
A sigh sounded.
"After leaving the Hou Mansion, everything in the future must be rebuilt by myself."
…
…
Like Su Hong, Tingqin, Mr. Chen, and Jin Xi'er also found rooms, which were not far from Su Hong's bedroom, making it easier to take care of them.
And just when Su Hong sighed, the door opened with a creak, and a little head poked in from the outside.
"Hehe, big brother, you haven't slept yet~"
When Jin Xier saw Su Hong and her staring at each other, she smiled "hehe" and opened the door and came in.
"I just came to the reef island, how could I fall asleep so quickly?" Su Hong smiled and rubbed Jin Xi'er's little head.
"I know that big brother won't go to bed so early. In fact, I can't sleep either. Why don't we take the opportunity to refine the Yuanhua Fox Pill together now."
Jin Xier's suggestion made Su Hong couldn't help but feel excited, but he nodded and said, "Okay."
…
Outside the government office, an evil wind suddenly drifted.
In the evil wind, a green eye suddenly appeared. This eye was extremely bloody and had a ferocious color.
"Well, no candles have been lit in this government office for three months. Why are the lights here brightly lit today, and there is a sense of righteousness like a scholar..."
"It's interesting that there are still people who dare to come to the reef island regardless of life and death. So tonight, I will let you understand what a nightmare is-"
At this moment, this evil wind drifted towards Su Hong's room in the government office.
At the same moment, on the reef island, a man suddenly opened his fangs, his eyes turned red, and he walked violently among the crowd.
