I am the county magistrate in Liaozhai

As the saying goes, once the emperor and the courtiers, now the old emperor is getting sicker and sicker, but the position of the crown prince is still unresolved. It may be infinitely magnified, not to mention that there is a problem with the entire team of officials in Shaanxi Province.

Although Zhou Lin is dead, the evidence in his hands has not been found. If this evidence falls into the hands of someone with a heart, it will be a big deal.Therefore, the pressure on Shaanxi Road was very tight. Xiong Xiong had a hard time this year, and he had to be angry with the tigress at home when he returned home.

"Admonition, reminder, you know the reminder, it doesn't take time to visit relatives during the Chinese New Year, what do you know, what do you know?" Xiong Xiong had a blister on his mouth, and his face turned dark, making him even more earthy.

Mrs. Xiong is not uncommon to look at people: "I urge you, not because of your future. You said that there will be no accidents in the new calendar. I will bear it, but my father has sent three urgent letters. If you can't do it again, Shaanxi will send someone over. My father will take you as his son-in-law, and this is the heavy responsibility for you. If you can't afford it, you should say it earlier. Your neck lets you do it!"

"you--"

"You are not afraid of killing people, but you still have to be coy when you burn down a broken house! Where did your ruthlessness 20 years ago go? Don't be really old and useless."

Mrs. Xiong's words were not aggressive, but she even poked at Xiong Xiong's dignity. How could this Xiong Xiong bear it? He slapped him directly: "Shut up, you bitch! I knew you were such a vicious woman." , I would never marry you back then!"

Mrs. Xiong was stunned by the beating, and then she reacted and grabbed her fingernails directly. Anyway...it wasn't like a husband and wife fighting, but more like killing a father and an enemy. It was a slap in the face.

However, even if the two of them were so embarrassing, when they calmed down, they couldn't let go of the huge benefits in the future. Xiong Xiong is really a person who "does big things". After leaving Zhou's house, Mrs. Xiong had a step, and returned to her former gentle appearance.

Since Xiong Xiong has made up his mind, he needs to make a thorough plan for burning Zhou's house.It turned out that he had been hesitant because Zhou's house was right in the middle of two residential alleys, and the winter was dry. Once the fire spread, it was no joke.

A few years ago, a child set off firecrackers and burned five families there, and 23 people died. It was a sensation at the time, so the fire prevention there was very good, and even during the Spring Festival, no one set off firecrackers. , and now the Zhou residence is unoccupied, and an inexplicable fire will only arouse suspicion.

It is true that he is the magistrate of Jinhua County, but it does not mean that he can cover the sky here, but since he is ready to take risks, then... he can only build a ghost house.

In the land of Jinhua, there are many rumors of ghosts and foxes. Zhou Taishi, don’t blame him for being cruel. If you want to blame, you can only blame you for blocking the way of others.

Xiong Xiong quickly sent someone to Zhou's house to arrange preparations, but he didn't know it. As soon as he made a move, General Yang Shen would know it. When the news reached Cheng Jin, it happened to be tonight.

County magistrate Cheng flicked the paper in his hand, thinking that Xiong was really good at thinking, and just stepped into the reincarnation and confession game set up by Tao Zui.Thinking about it, tonight he will have an early dinner, and then ask the master to take him to Zhou's house to watch a good show.

"You don't have long legs, so you want me to take you there?"

The county magistrate of Cheng didn't have the slightest gesture of begging for help: "Didn't the master say at the beginning, let me see the darkness in this world, I rushed to see it, why did the master become hypocritical instead?"

Montenegro: ...

"If you don't speak, I will take it as your agreement." Cheng Jin was making New Year's plans, including the travel arrangements for the Shangyuan Festival, and said, "Master, you really don't plan to talk about the Xiantian Pill. ?"

Speaking of this, Montenegro was no longer silent: "I went to check Naqi's imperial physician, and the imperial medical office evaluated him as withdrawn and difficult to get along with, but he has superb medical skills, is especially good at gynecological diseases, and likes to look up classics."

"So you suspect that his innate alchemy recipe came from Qingheng in the previous dynasty?" Cheng Jin thought for a while with his chin on his head, "It's not impossible, Qingheng likes to watch people do evil. The animal-making method used by Zhai Na's shaman is the evil seed he planted casually, and if your guess is true, he probably placed this innate pill in the inner courtyard of the palace on purpose."

Apparently, Montenegro had already had guesses in his mind.

Cheng Jin was talking, but suddenly he was blessed: "Master, do you still remember King Heng? At the beginning, Lin Jiuniang's shadow said that his temperament had changed drastically. We guessed that he was resurrected by Qing Heng with a secret method. Do you think it is this?" Xiantian pill? After all, King Heng is so loyal, and his temperament suddenly changed, isn't it more like a new core?"

"……Most likely."

Cheng Jin put down the brush, looked at the setting sun in the west, and stretched his waist greatly: "It's not difficult to ask for a certificate. The ghost of Concubine Feng Gui is still in the underworld, but I think this Xiantian pill may There are no small side effects."

Montenegro frowned: "Why such a guess?"

"It's very simple. It's too late to keep good things privately, so how can they be used to harm people." If Qingheng really made the Xiantian Pill, then the imperial physician Qi might not have any good results, "Hey, master, where are you going? "

"Go to the underworld, don't worry, it won't delay your county magistrate watching the good show."

Lord Cheng County Magistrate: ...Oh, Hei Lulu will tease him now, it's incredible.

As soon as Heilulu left, Maomao appeared out of nowhere. A few days ago because of the matter of two pennies and a red seal, he gave him a lot of supercilious looks: "Why, ask me if I have something to do?"

"No! You've all been secretive lately. Is there something good that you didn't tell Ben Meow?"

"Well." Of course it's true, but you can't put it that way, "Why do you think so? After Xi Niang returned to Fucheng, you were too busy?"

"No, Ah Cong is still here, and he also made mutton stew tonight, and it's all stewed on the stove. I'm so busy watching the fire that I don't have time."

County Magistrate Cheng: "...I invite you here to see the prisoners, not the fire."

Pan Xiaoan felt that there was nothing wrong with it: "That's right, but don't you look at the people in Tangxi Prison, all the serious criminals have been taken away, and those who are imprisoned are either small thieves or villains who take advantage of the road. The nail house in the deepest part of the cell is obviously a human being, but he still says he is a ghost, he doesn’t know what to say when he asks three questions, and he can only say ghost words, it’s clear that he’s a prisoner.”

Cheng County Magistrate looked through the distant memory: "Don't tell me, I almost forgot about this person. Wasn't he included in the last time the Yamen cleared the case?"

"Not here, and if you let him go, he won't even move. An ascetic monk can't sit still like him." As the head of the prison, Mao Mao obviously doesn't like this nail household very much, "On weekdays, he only eats during meals. Move it."

"Really human?" Why did he disbelieve the cat's eyes so much.

"Of course, it's genuine!" The topic was dragged away, apparently Maomao had forgotten about coming to "excuse the teacher", and when A Cong called for dinner, he slipped away so fast.

Eating mutton stew in winter is as refreshing as eating watermelon in the dog days. The mutton has been stewed to the bone, crispy and delicious. This soup is served with rice, and Mr. Cheng cooked three bowls of rice.

Well, after all there is an event tonight, so don't eat more.

Not long after dinner, Heilulu came back from the underworld, his face smelled a lot to the naked eye.

"She won't tell?"

Heishan didn't respond, just grabbed Cheng Yi'an and shrunk into an inch, and arrived outside Jinhua City in a short while.

Cheng Jin stood still a little dizzy. Sure enough, the way of travel of the Yaozu is not suitable for ordinary people like him: "Master, can we notify in advance?" At least give him a time to put the seat belt on the little heart.

"...Do you still want to have a future?"

That's right, after experiencing this terrible feeling of traveling once, the county magistrate Cheng didn't want to do it again in a short period of time, but he was always stubborn, and only said, "I have to go back."

Montenegro: ...

Heishan had never been to Zhou's house, so Cheng Jin led the way there. Although the city gate was closed, it was much more convenient to have a demon by his side.

But obviously, if you make an appointment to go to the theater, you will always be 5 minutes late.

The curfew was early in ancient times, and after sunset, few people came out to walk around. Xiong Xiong obviously didn’t want to have long nights and dreams. He wanted to promote the process of turning Zhou’s house into a ghost house, he needed the witnesses of the surrounding people, so if the night was too quiet, no one would “support”. Of course, he also considered that if the night is too quiet, there may be a risk of casualties, which is not what he wants to see.

"Have you checked everything carefully? There must be no mistakes, do you hear me?"

"Don't worry, sir, it's all done."

After Xiong Xiong listened, his expression turned pale, but he was still worried: "Okay, take the old man to check it out."

Inside Zhou's house, Xiong Xiong's people have searched almost all over, that is, they dug several earthen pits in the garden, because tung oil was poured around, so it is inconvenient to light the lamps. Of course, Xiong Xiong was worried, he only glanced roughly at the bottom of the wall, and then went to see the layout of the house inside.

In his plan, he would use phosphorous fire to create the effect of will-o'-the-wisps. It didn't need to be too much, just let the people around see it.Xiong Xiong just finished checking the mechanism, and was about to let his subordinates lead the way, but when he turned around, there was suddenly no one there.

"Cao Cheng? Cao Cheng?!"

Xiong Xiong subconsciously touched Huozhezi in his arms, but when he thought of Lin in front of him, his actions froze for a moment: "Who? Who is playing tricks? Cao Cheng! Cao Cheng!"

Cao Chengcheng was the direct murderer who killed Zhou Lin, but obviously, this Cao Cheng didn't dare to respond at the moment, because... he's gone to hell, and there's more than one of them!He was terrified and wanted to break free, but all the ghosts around him were rushing towards him.

Without Cao Cheng's response, Xiong Xiong became even more frightened, and at this moment, a familiar and vague voice suddenly came to his ears: "Xiong Lang, I'm in so much pain, you...come down and accompany me." !"

County magistrate Cheng: ...Where did you find the extras for this intoxication? There are quite a lot of plays.
