Chapter 38 Expert?

The one who came to Li Yu and the others was Hu Dainian, the guard of Niutou Town. Li Yu had seen him several times, and after hearing people complained about him, he naturally remembered him.

Hu Danian was not very strong, and he was very powerful. At this time, he looked at Li Yu and the others with a scrutiny look, with a lofty attitude.

Li Yu felt a little uncomfortable with such a look, but he was an official, so there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

As a poor countryman, Li Yu, like most people, has an instinctive awe for officials. Facing Hu Dainian’s question, he replied: “Sir, there are monsters everywhere outside. We came here all the way, but we didn’t see a living person. It was too terrible outside. We didn’t dare to run around, because the specific situation was not very clear.”

Hu Dainian seemed a little disappointed with such an answer, frowned and asked in a deep voice: "Didn't you find anything else? For example, sending troops or experts to the county town, etc.."

Hearing this, Li Yu looked around again and understood what Hu Dainian meant. It turned out that they were waiting for rescue in the county town.

Shaking his head, Li Yu said: "Sir, we have not found anyone from the county town."

Hu Danian refers to people from the court, Fang Qing and others are not included, right? When answering, Li Yu said in his heart.

Hu Danian seemed very disappointed in this answer, and waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, let's do it. You can find a place in the yard and wait for the court to send someone to rescue. Remember, don't speak loudly or cause trouble, otherwise I will be careful of your head being cut off in a special period!"

After leaving such a sentence, Hu Danian turned around and left, and seemed to have no desire to be too lazy with people like Li Yu and others for a moment.

Li Yu didn't care. For officials like Hu Dainian, if there was no need for Li Yu to not want to contact the other party at all, he always felt uncomfortable. Well, the inexplicable urge to hit someone in his heart...

As for the rescue from the court, maybe it will come?

As far as Li Yu knew, because of the rampant bandits, there were troops stationed in the county town. Although the specific number was not clear, the army was synonymous with the killing machine. If they came to rescue, I think they could help the people present through the difficulties?

Seeing Hu Danian passing through the crowd and entering the lobby, Li Yu unexpectedly found that after entering the lobby, the guy seemed to lower his posture and said something to someone. However, due to the angle, Li Yu could not see the details of the other person, and only felt that the clothes were a little familiar.

It was afternoon, and the scorching sun was hanging in the sky, and the heat was unbearable. Li Yu took Li Dashu to a cool place to look around.

There were more than a dozen constables wearing black robes around the yard. They raised things in the yard and stood on them to observe the situation outside from time to time. They had knives and several were equipped with bows and arrows.

More than a hundred people in the yard were tilted, most of them were pale and had chapped lips. I don’t know if they were hungry or were blown away by the sun.

"Dad, I'm hungry..."

At this time, a four or five-year-old child next to Li Yu said pitifully to a middle-aged man with a weak crying voice.

The middle-aged man said bitterly: "Good Xiaobao, bear it anymore, when it gets dark, you will have someone bring us porridge."

"But Dad, two bowls of porridge a day are not enough to eat, so when can we eat full? Why can we only drink porridge, but the guardian can make big fish and meat?" The child sobbed in the direction of the lobby.

"He is an official, of course he can eat better. Xiaobao, don't think about these things. If you bear it, we will be saved when the county army comes. We will definitely be able to eat enough at that time," said the middle-aged man with a wry smile.

An official can eat well and dress well at any time and serve him. Can he compare with ordinary people?

After a moment of heart movement, Li Yu came to the middle-aged man and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, I just came here and didn't know the situation, but it's not a big deal that so many people are exposed to the sun in the sun. There are obviously many houses over there to let everyone rest, so why not go there?"

"Because the guardian will not allow him," the middle-aged man replied in a low voice, with a hint of helplessness in his voice.

Frowning, Li Yu asked again: "Why don't you go if you don't let me?"

"What else can I do? There are knives in my hands around me. Who dares to anger the guard?" the middle-aged man smiled bitterly.

After looking at the people around him, it seemed that they could not stand steadily. Li Yu understood the helplessness of the middle-aged people.

Immediately, Li Yu lowered his voice again and asked, "Uncle, I just saw someone in the lobby. The guardian seemed to be very respectful to him. Do you know who that is?"

"You are talking about Master Zhou. He is a master. Of course, he must respect him. And who is present does not respect him? He is counting on him to help him." The middle-aged man glanced at the direction of the lobby and said.

"Master Zhou? Master?" Li Yu said he didn't understand.

The middle-aged man explained: "Master Zhou was the first person to come here. He was a master with real skills. He had personally killed several unstoppable monsters. Here, his reputation is higher than that of the guardian."

"How did he kill the monster?" Li Yu asked intrigued.

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man said in awe: "He, when he came here that day, there were a few monsters in the yard. The constable cut off the monster's arms and legs and could not be killed. Seeing this, Dao Zheng Zhou opened the altar and attracted the real fire of the sun. He burned the monster to ashes and completely solved it. He could kill monsters that ordinary people could not kill. Do you think it is amazing?"

What awesome. Although that monster is terrible, it will be solved by cutting off your head. If you have the real fire of the sun, I am afraid I don’t know how much firewood has been wasted.

Li Yu curled his lips in his heart, thinking that Master Zhou was afraid that he was not the one who ran away from Wang Youcai's house.

Thinking of this, Li Yu felt that the master might be the Taoist priest. After all, he vaguely felt that the other party was a little familiar with him, but he didn't see it clearly and was not sure.

At this moment, a constable stood at the door of the lobby and lowered his voice and said, "Listen, the food in the yamen has been exhausted, and a meal of porridge has been cancelled tonight. The adults have sent people to the county town for help. The army will come soon, so everyone can bear it."

After saying this, the constable entered the lobby without looking back.

"How could this happen? We haven't had enough food in two days."

"I don't even have to drink porridge. If this continues, people will starve to death."

"Sir, please give me some stutter. My child is almost fainted from hunger..."

The constable's words made the scene explode, and more than a hundred people complained in a verbal way.

"Shut up if you don't want to die. Do you want to attract monsters? If you make trouble, I won't need monsters to come, I'll cut you down first!" In the chaotic scene, the captain said angrily with a frosty face.
