Chapter 4 Mutation and mutation, snake monsters appear(1/2)
Li Yanxu was taken away.
Everyone outside the hall was talking a lot.
But they all changed their tune and cursed the merchant's son-in-law.
Some people said that they had seen the husband-in-law wandering around outside earlier.
Jiang Nan looked at the sad and helpless Mrs. Shang and sighed: "Mrs. Shang, we don't have much time. Let's have a word with the two elders."
"Thank you, sir." Mrs. Shang bowed her head again.
Then, he floated towards the second elder of the merchant, and after whispering a few words, the second elder burst into tears.
After a while, the time limit for the art of opening into the secluded world has expired.
"Madam, humans and ghosts follow different paths." Jiang Nan reminded.
The ghost nodded, bowed once more, and turned into dots of green light, overflowing between the sky and the earth.
Everyone sighed.
But Jiangnan realized something was wrong.
It stands to reason that the case has been solved and the culprit has been brought to justice. It is logical that the case should be dismissed.
But above the high hall, the Imperial Censor had no intention of retreating.
Snapped!
There was another scream.
Everyone looked at him.
"The case of Mrs. Shang's murder has been solved, but I have one more case to try together!" the censor said.
"Is there another case?"
"What case?"
"..."
Everyone in the hall was whispering to each other, but no one knew what kind of medicine was sold in the censor's gourd.
"County Magistrate Chen, this court belongs to you, what do you think?"
County Magistrate Chen's face was gloomy and impatient: "If the Censor wants to interrogate, let's do it."
"Then I will interrogate it!"
The censor's tone changed, and his original calm tone became solemn: "I have heard that many children have disappeared in Xunyang County in the past year. However, as the magistrate of Xunyang County, you did not mention this matter in the file.
Position, leaving the people in dire straits and ignoring fire and water."
The censor looked at County Magistrate Chen coldly and said word by word: "County Magistrate Chen, what crime do you deserve!"
The crowd was in an uproar.
The county magistrate raised his eyelids and said slowly, "Master Censor, those children clearly ran away from home because of their parents' failure to educate them well, so there should be no criminal case. Master Censor, please don't listen to the rumors."
The censor showed a look of sudden realization, "Oh...that's it! I thought those children were eaten by you!"
Once the words are spoken, everything becomes empty and silent.
Everyone, including Jiang Nan, was confused.
After a long silence, the county magistrate finally stood up and said in a cold voice: "How did you find out?"
At the same time, a faint mist drifted out from nowhere!
Did the county magistrate admit it?
The county magistrate eats people?
Everyone in the hall was horrified and wanted to leave first!
But one of the people suddenly exclaimed, "I...I can't move!"
Then, so did the rest of the people.
Anyone who inhales the mist will be paralyzed and ready to be slaughtered!
The emotion of fear spread throughout the court like a plague!
"You monster is finally willing to show up!"
The censor said coldly: "You are so courageous! How dare you act recklessly in the territory of Daxia! Aren't you afraid of being beheaded by Xiu Yi?"
The county magistrate Jie Jie smiled strangely, and an even more violent poisonous mist emitted from his mouth.
Everyone found that not only their movements but even their vocal cords were paralyzed!
An idea flashed in Jiang Nan's mind!
He had just thought that the county magistrate looked like something.
Now, he remembered.
- Like a snake!
What kind of county magistrate is this?
This is an old snake demon that has become a spirit through cultivation!
"Embroidered clothes? Hehe!" The county magistrate's body squirmed slowly,
"Xunyang is the border of Qingzhou, and the sky is high and the sky is far away. You are a censor, but you are not a Taoist scholar. Except for the junior Jiang who has some side skills, you are all mortals. Who can spread the news to Xiuyi's ears?"
"By the time they notice, I will have already slaughtered all of you. Why don't you go back to the mountains to escape and be happy as usual?"
Having said that, he had already taken off his county magistrate's uniform, and in the blink of an eye he transformed into a big snake as thick as a bucket, with gleaming scales, entrenched in the court hall!
The scarlet snake utters words in a hesitant manner!
Everyone was in despair.
The snake demon swings its giant tail and heads towards the south of the Yangtze River!
His goal is very clear. As long as he is the first to deal with Jiang Nan, a man with some means, the remaining censors, government servants and other common people will not have anything to worry about!
The snake's tail, covered with cold scales, swept over with terrifying force like a mountain, slamming Jiang Nan against the wall with a bang.
After dealing with the only threat, the snake demon looked at the censor with a half-smile, "I originally just wanted to pretend to be a county magistrate, be worshiped by others, and occasionally go out to hunt for blood food, but you were exposed by your stupid kid."
"I am going to massacre this Xunyang County town today!"
As soon as the words came out, everyone felt despair.
As we all know, although the Censor's Office monitors all civil and military officials, the Censor has always only allowed and not allowed to enter Taoism.
In other words, Jiangnan is now half dead, and the rest are just mortals.
Aren't you just at the mercy of this snake demon?
You are a swordsman and I am a fish and meat!
Unexpectedly, the censor was not afraid of danger.
He said quietly, "Snake demon, since you are not the county magistrate, how can you say that I am the censor?"
After he finished speaking, he took a step forward and his clothes changed.
A royal censor's uniform instantly transformed into a silver embroidered garment, holding a jade staff in his hand and a tiger talisman hanging from his waist!
"I am the envoy of Daxia Embroidered Clothes, Wang Chunyun of Silver Embroidered Clothes. This trip to Xunyang is to kill you, the snake demon!"
At this point, hope arose in everyone's hearts.
The Embroidered Clothes Envoy is Daxia's official spy agency, directly under the emperor. He holds a staff and is equipped with a tiger talisman to slay demons and demons!
If you are below the fourth rank, you have the right to kill first and then retaliate. If you are above the fourth rank, you can also act on your own initiative!
If the Yushitai, which oversees all civil and military officials, is feared by all officials, then the Embroidered Clothes Envoy is even more mysterious and feared.
Within the territory of Daxia, all supernatural things, whether demons, monsters, or demons, are within their hunting range!
The snake demon's eyes burst out with cold light, "Then I want to see how capable you are as an embroiderer?!"
Wang Chunyun's eyes were cold and he raised his staff, but his heart was awe-inspiring.
He came to Xunyang disguised as a censor, just to get rid of the demon.
I originally thought that in a small place like Xunyang, even if there were demons, they would only be small demons that were not in the first grade or the ninth grade.
But in his mind, he sensed that the snake demon in front of him actually had an eighth-grade cultivation level!
Not much different from him!
Tough bones!
A ruthless character!
Evenly matched.
This is a common thought between the snake demon and Wang Chunyun.
