I was held captive by demons

Maybe it was just because he looked at the neighbor twice more, and the other party held a grudge and entered the house in the middle of the night to kill you all over the house.

Or walking on the road and being disliked by a passing martial arts person, he was hacked to death with a knife...

"This world is so dangerous, will the government ignore it?" Kong Ning asked with a frown.

The chaos in Hejian Mansion was more serious than he had imagined.

Originally, he was worried that the demons and ghosts in the city would wantonly kill people and eat blood for cultivation, turning the world into a purgatory on earth.

But now the demons and goblins haven't blatantly killed people everywhere, and the mortals are messing up first.

This is really...

Kong Ning frowned.

But Zhang Rong sighed, and said, "The government also wants to take care of it...how can we do it?"

"The current world is so chaotic. From those martial arts masters to ordinary people in the market, everyone is full of hostility and kills with a knife at every turn."

"Everyone is living a life of being drunk today, without thinking about anything else."

"The yamen basically does not impose punishments other than the death penalty. Most criminals are arrested and directly sentenced to death."

"It's already a heavy code, but it can't stop people from wanting to die."

Chapter 126 Black Lotus Saintess

When Zhang Rong said it, he was also full of helplessness.

"Take my work in the Yamen as an example..."

"When I was in Shanlan County, I played cards with you every day, went to the Goulan and listened to music. There were not many cases to deal with throughout the year, so I was very leisurely."

"But when you come to Hejian Mansion, you have to hunt down murderers and chase people every few days, and you have to fight those guys who fight and make trouble every now and then."

"Basically, you can see dead people every day."

"This day, it's just... oh..."

Zhang Rong said with bitterness on his face: "Although Shanlan County is remote, it is surrounded by mountains and there is only one road in and out, so the traffic is inconvenient. Fortunately, it is remote, and there are not so many nonsense things going on."

"If my family and relatives are not here, I would like to move back."

Zhang Rong poured out bitter water.

Obviously, there is nowhere to vent these bitterness, and it is impossible to tell my colleagues in the yamen.Seeing Kong Ning now, once he opened his mouth, he couldn't stop.

Kong Ning sat in the tea room, drinking tea and eating pastries, quietly listening to Zhang Rong's complaints about the life of the Yamen in Hejian Mansion, and giving some responses from time to time.

Instead, through Zhang Rong's complaints, he had a general understanding of some interpersonal relationships in the yamen.

After learning that Kong Ning was going to stay in Hejian Mansion for a long time, Zhang Rong quickly persuaded Kong Ning to give up his plan to stay in the inn for a long time.Today's world is so chaotic, and the inn, a place where three religions and nine streams are mixed, has a very high frequency of murders.

Zhang Rong invited Kong Ning to live in his house, but after being rejected by Kong Ning, he heard Kong Ning said that he brought some money and wanted to buy a flat by himself, so he tried to find a suitable house for Kong Ning.

The situation in Hejian Mansion is chaotic, and the government is also suppressing it with high-handed and iron-blooded means, which leads to depression everywhere in the city and strong rejection of outsiders.

With the help of Zhang Rong, a local and an official status old fried dough stick, it can naturally save Kong Ning some time.

At least there is no need to cast illusions on the people in the dental shop.

"I'll take you to the Yamen to issue a certificate first, and then go to my house for dinner. After dinner, go to Shaoxian River for a stroll, to see the prosperity of the big place."

Speaking of this, Zhang Rong immediately cheered up.

Although it's hard to be too explicit because there are children around, the winking expression is quite joyful.

"Let me tell you, compared with those girls in Shaoshanhe, the girls in Chunfeng Building are all rural girls, which is far behind."

"Tonight, I will open your eyes."

Zhang Rong talked with Kong Ning for more than an hour, and the tea was changed again and again.The bitter water was almost poured out, so he prepared to take Kongning away.

But at this moment, there was a sudden noise from the street outside.

Instantly attracted Kong Ning's attention.

It is normal to be noisy on the street.

But in today's world, it is extremely abnormal.

Not to mention that amidst the bustling hustle and bustle, there are still bursts of fragrance.

Kong Ning walked to the window and took a look.Then I saw that the long street below was already full of people.

People lined the road, shouting and agitated.

At the other end of the long street, the tall jade chariot was passing through the crowd and coming towards this side.

At the front and back of the jade chariot, there are golden boys and jade girls clearing the way, there are flying flowers, there are harsh music, and there are male and female guardians wearing the same black robes, left and right, front and back.

In the jade chariot with fluttering white gauze, there is a figure sitting vaguely.

Wherever the jade chariot went, people on both sides of the street knelt down and shouted loudly.

"Birthless old mother! Vacuum hometown!"

"The black lotus purifies the world! All dharmas are impermanent!"

The uniform slogan was only shouted by the male and female disciples in black robes around the jade chariot at first.

But as the jade chariot continued to pass through the crowd, more and more people knelt on both sides and shouted along with them.

Soon, the same slogan sounded in unison on the long street.

Kong Ning frowned slightly at the spectacular scene of thousands of people shouting.

"Who is this? Such a big scene?" Kong Ning asked.

The jade chariot clears the way, and all the people along the way kneel down to worship... the emperor's relatives and relatives?

Beside him, Zhang Rongdao was also standing by the window.

"It's the Saintess of the Black Lotus Sect who is traveling... This kind of ostentation is already considered small. If their palm print Grand Marshal travels, the ostentation will be even bigger than this!"

Zhang Rong's exclamation made Kong Ning even more confused.

Because although the figure on the jade chariot was covered by white gauze, ordinary people could not see through its true face.

But when Kong Ningfa opened his eyes, he could see clearly that the woman in the jade chariot was just a mortal, without any morality or magic power.

Although there are some real qi circulating in the dantian, they are just ordinary martial arts masters, how can they cause such a big battle?

"What's so special about this Black Lotus Sect? Why are there so many believers?" Kong Ning felt a little inconceivable: "And the jade chariot opened the way? Isn't this a crime of usurpation? The government doesn't care?"

In a world where demons are rampant, a group of mortals with only a little bit of martial arts can make such a big commotion... Could it be that there are no demons who can easily destroy them?

And not relatives of the emperor... How dare the jade chariot clear the way?So ostentatious in town?

According to the laws of the Great Zhou, this is a sin of beheading!

But Zhang Rong shook his head and said, "Great Zhou Law? The crime of usurpation? Who cares about that stuff now."

"In today's world, as long as you don't kill people or make troubles, you are a good person."

"Although this Black Lotus Sect has a great momentum, it is just an ordinary sect. It usually promotes that the Black Lotus will purify the world, that believers can enter the vacuum homeland, and stay away from ordinary evil desires. Some prayers and donations will actually help the stability of the city.”

"I had dinner with their head coach... well, I was standing guard at the door, and the master of Futai sat inside and chatted with them."

As Zhang Rong said, he couldn't help laughing, and shook his head, "The Marshal is good at teaching martial arts. He is considered a first-class master in Hejian Mansion. He often brings followers to help the government arrest murderers. Quite a lot, so naturally no one cares about him.”

"Anyway, these things he did, although they are an eyesore, at least they are worry-free, unlike those martial arts masters who kill people everywhere. The master of Futai even said several times that if everyone goes to believe in the Black Lotus Sect, don't fight Just kill and kill."

"That way the world must be much more peaceful."

Zhang Rong and Kong Ning stood by the window, watching the jade chariot below pass through the long street surrounded by the congregation of the Black Lotus Sect. They didn't leave the teahouse until the crowd had almost dispersed, and went to the yamen to do business.

Zhang Rong looked calm and didn't take this matter to heart.

But Kong Ning was a little bit interested in the Black Lotus Sect.

In a sinister world ravaged by demons, if a cult makes such a big commotion, is it true that there are no demons behind it?

The Fuyue Cave on Lianzhan Mountain is located in the mountains not far from the city of Hejianfu.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the entire Hejian Prefecture is under the eyes of those monsters.

Could this Black Lotus Sect have something to do with Fuyue Cave?

Chapter 127 Don't Be Disrespectful

Under the guidance of Zhang Rong, Kong Ning went to the Yamen and got the certificate of the opening of the Yamen.

Then he went to Zhang Rong's house as a guest.

The world is chaotic, so the management of the Yamen is also very strict.

Visitors from other places like Kong Ning are not allowed to buy real estate in Fucheng without a valid reason.

However, these restrictions no longer exist under Zhang Rong's dredging.

But Zhang Rong also persuaded Kong Ning that if he wanted to stay in Hejian Mansion for a long time, he still had to find a regular businessman.

Because the recommendation system is implemented in Fucheng, one guarantee for ten households.If the security chief is unwilling to be a guarantee, even if you buy a house, you will not live for long.

Although Zhang Rong can come forward to clear things up, it is guaranteed that after Kong Ning buys real estate anywhere in the city, no security chief will make things difficult for him.

But Kong Ningruo has never been in business, and the chief security officer dare not guarantee the great face.After all, if Kong Ning commits a crime, then the unlucky security chief will also be dragged away...

Zhang Rong's family is prosperous. Although his wife is not very beautiful, she is thick-limbed, hospitable, and a good woman in life.

There are two sons and a daughter in the family. The oldest is 13 years old and the youngest is five years old.These three children are also the reason why Zhang Rong racked his brains to transfer back to Hejian Mansion.

Although Zhang Rong went to Shanlan County to take office with the county magistrate, but Zhang Rong's status and position were not important, and Xue Gu's control over him was not serious.

Like most residents of Shanlan County, he was only slightly confused.During the holidays, you can still ask for leave to go back to Hejian Mansion to reunite with your family.

Compared with the county magistrate and the unlucky brother-in-law of the county magistrate, Zhang Rong is much happier.

After dinner, Kong Ning was dragged by Zhang Rong to Shaoxian River for a stroll.

Because Kong Ning was a guest from afar, Zhang Rong's wife gave Zhang Rong an extra tael of silver to entertain the guests well.

On the banks of the Shaoxian River under the night, the sound of dancing pavilions and song platforms and silk and bamboo fluttered.

This big river crossing Hejianfu is formed by the confluence of Wangjiang River, Yunhe River and Jinchi River. The river is wide and has vast waves.

Those flower boats and singing boats floating on the river are lively and prosperous.

This place is different from most of the depressive and dead silence in the city. There is a warm and frantic atmosphere everywhere. Even under the night, the lights are still brightly lit.

No matter the girls on the flower boats or the guests who came to get drunk and listen to music, or enter the scene to enjoy themselves, they all looked excited and behaved exaggeratedly, they did not conceal their lust at all, and indulged in their sensuality.

It was in stark contrast to the depressive silence of most places in the city.

Zhang Rong smiled happily: "How is it? This place is interesting!"

Kong Ning nodded and smiled, "It's really interesting."

Compared with the hustle and bustle here, the Chunfeng Building in Shanlan County is indeed small and earthy, with no fun at all.

It's just that the people here are so frantic and happy, but they are also closely related to the oppressive and chaotic world in the city.

In such a chaotic world, the wealthy people who are entitled to indulge in sensuality, naturally enjoy themselves frantically. Everyone is living the days when they have wine and are drunk now, desperately grabbing all the happiness they can hold.

The various performances and programs in the brothel painting boat are also mostly exciting and explicit.

On the stage, the young girls who were surrounded by the crowd danced charmingly and enchantingly.Wearing all kinds of dresses and dresses that can be called cool and bold even in a brothel, from time to time because of exaggerated movements and bold exposure, they attract applause and generous rewards from below.

Almost all the flower boats and paintings along the Shaoxian River were shrouded in such a fanatical atmosphere of pleasure.

The noisy and exciting feeling reminded Kong Ning of the night scene in his previous life.

Sure enough, the more oppressive and desperate the world is, the more people need a place to relieve stress...

In the early morning of the next day, not long after Zhang Rong went out to the yamen for some time, someone knocked on the door.

It was a dental assistant in the city who was entrusted by Zhang Rong to help Kong Ning find a house.

"Mr. Ning, hello, the villain's name is Li Shun'er, Master Zhang asked me to come here," said the clerk of the tooth shop with a smile on his face, obsequious and enthusiastic.

But for the sake of safety, Kong Ning still cast him an illusion.

Car and boat shop feet and teeth, even innocent should be killed.
