I am the county magistrate in Liaozhai

Strictly speaking, this place is not within the territory of Tangxi. If you go further south, you can see Jinhua Fucheng.

Unless there are special circumstances, officials from all over the country are generally not allowed to leave the area under their jurisdiction, but this is not for the joint suppression of bandits. This place was selected by Cheng Jin and General Yang.

"A monster again? Did you stab a monster's den?" No matter where you go, there are monsters.

Pan Xiaoan spread his hands helplessly: "Who told you to come to Tangxi to be the county magistrate? This place doesn't care. Ordinary people dare not come. Monsters are not afraid of bandits. After you stay for a long time, what kind of monsters can't be seen, don't worry. Rest assured."

"...Are you cursing me?"

How can this matter of fact be called a curse, Pan Xiaomao flatly denied it: "Huh? The roe deer spirit is here."

As soon as the words fell, a young girl appeared in front of the bamboo building where the two of them temporarily stayed. Probably, there is no such thing as an ugly fairy. Soothe the blues.

"The two gentlemen can see a scholar in his twenties, so tall, wearing indigo blue clothes?"

Actually came to find someone?

Cheng Jin obviously didn't want to deal with monsters, so he asked Pan Xiaoan to come forward. Mao Mao was full of curiosity: "I haven't seen it before, but you are a scorpion monster, what are you doing looking for that scholar?"

The girl's face was startled when she was knocked out of her identity by a single word, only then did she realize that the person talking to her was also a monster, but her skills were weak and she couldn't see through the other party's monster body, so her face was a little apprehensive: "Junior Hua Guzi pays homage to senior. Then The scholar has a kindness with my family, and now that he is in danger, the younger generation needs to find him."

"Repaying kindness again?" Maomao felt that he couldn't look directly at the word "repaying kindness" recently.

There was a puzzled expression on the girl's face, but she was anxious in her heart, and left in a hurry after Mao Mao said that she had never seen such a person.

Mao Mao looked at the direction where the demon left, and sighed: "Actually, there is a place outside Jinhua City that is very dangerous for mortal scholars, but this little demon is so low-minded that even I dare to take a look outside. , even if she goes, it will be for nothing."

Cheng Jin couldn't help frowning: "Where?"

"A temple that was deserted for a long time in the past, you definitely don't know about it." Pan Xiaoan obviously didn't want to mention it, "And he didn't necessarily go there. Why do you ask so many questions before the bandits come?"

Changing the subject so bluntly, Cheng Jin glanced at the cat and said, "Of course we have to wait, but I'm a little curious. Are you considered a high-ranking person among monsters?"

If this is the case, it seems that the monster is not as scary as the rumors say.

Maomao: ... I was offended, and I don't want to answer this question at all.

But the cat was under the eaves, so he had to bow his head: "Of course, do you think it's easy to transform into an animal? It took me 500 years to transform successfully, and then I mastered the method of transformation. Do you think that all of them are like black animals?" Is your lord that powerful? Let’s just say that the deer spirit just now has only been able to practice for 200 years, and his talent is average, and he is far from being able to transform into a human form. I am afraid that he got some kind of opportunity to transform into a human form.”

"Besides, not all monsters are very good at fighting. Just like you human beings can do 360 lines and become champions in every line, we monsters also have their own specialties, okay? What do you humans say, 'If you are not my race, your heart must be different ', made up all kinds of stories to demonize us, we haven't settled with you humans yet!"

Cheng Jin: "...It sounds like you complained deeply, but how did I hear that among you monsters, there are also rumors that people's hearts are black and human beings are liars."

Pan Xiaoan: ... Gan, how do you know? !

I don’t know when the autumn rain began to fall in the sky. It’s approaching late autumn, and the autumn rain is very cool, especially in the mountains. The cats have been waiting so hard that they have already slumped on the chair, with their hands still in their hands. I don’t know that it’s winter. How cold is it?

Cheng Jin was also a little sleepy at first, but after hearing the knock on the door outside, he regained consciousness in an instant.

He stood up and pushed the cat, and only opened a crack in the door to look out of the yard. The person who came was the owner of Leizhai from Wufuzhai.

In the past, there were wizards in Wushengzhai, Wufuzhai and Datouzhai were friendly and cooperative relations, and the triangular relationship was very strong and very strong.Now that I have gone to a corner, the original harmonious relationship has cracked in an instant.

"Is the wizard at home?"

Cheng Jin didn't answer. After all, people tend to have doubts about things that are too easy to get.The county magistrate Cheng set up a lot of problems for him, and of course the cat here did a lot of hard work.

When Lord Lei Zhai rushed in front of Cheng Jin, he was still panting heavily: "Master Wizard, I sincerely invite you to visit Wufu Village as a guest."

"To be a guest? That surnamed He said the same thing at the beginning, but later he became greedy. I think you are sincere, and I will give you a gift. Let's go."

This can't be done, if Lao Feng from Datouzhai comes over after he leaves, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?

Lei Zhaizi showed his lifelong negotiating skills, made a heavy promise, said that he would never follow Lao He, and even made a poisonous oath. Cheng Jin was grateful for his sincerity and went to Wufuzhai with others.

Compared with Wusheng Village, Wufu Village is located on the farther side, and the way up the mountain is much more difficult. However, as the invited guests, Master Wizard and his little medicine man were of course respectfully carried up.

Master Lei of course had a big feast, and Cheng Jin just ate.

When the banquet was halfway through, it was said that there was a messenger from Datouzhai Feng Zhaizhu outside, which showed that he had received the news that the wizard was invited back.

"You didn't see that, the guy named Lei killed the messenger without blinking an eye."

Cheng Jin rolled his eyelids: "Because he is ambitious."

"?"

"He finally confirmed my identity at the banquet just now, and he feels that he is even more powerful. Of course, he will tear his face off with the people in Datouzhai." Cheng Jin yawned and said casually.

"...When was it confirmed, why didn't I see it?"

You just ate, of course you didn't see it.

Although the bandit is reckless, he is not stupid. A wizard must have real skills, so he showed his real skills. A very simple chemical reaction experiment is enough to bluff people.

Mao Mao was so angry that he left, and went to inspect Wufuzhai in his original form.

Compared with Wusheng Village, Wufu Village has relatively fewer people, and the general layout is similar. Pan Xiaoan wandered around and wandered into the prison cell.

When he passed the gatehouse just now, he heard two bandits bragging that Jiedao had captured a tender scholar back today, and he just happened to be the master of the village for his eldest lady.

Tender scholar, Cheng Jin's face immediately appeared in Maomao's mind, and he shook Maomao's head immediately, ready to see the new face to wash his mind.Hey, he must have lost his mind in the first place to hook up with Cheng Jin, a dog official.

Now it's all right, not only have to work as a laborer, but also have their salary deducted, it's just too miserable.

Pan Xiaoan's cat shape is very small. According to the size of a cat, he is still a kitten. In the dark night, he moves around lightly, and ordinary people can't find him at all.

The prison in Bandit Den is very rough, and the guards are not strict. As soon as Mao Mao entered the door, he heard someone inside shouting: "Let me out! Let me out!"

... If it was Cheng Jin, he would definitely not shout, um, this guy might just open the cell door and beat him out.

When Pan Xiaoan walked in following the voice, he saw a scholar in an indigo blue gown hugging the prison door and shouting. He was indeed gentle and handsome, but obviously he hadn't gone through any storms, and there was still a childish look in his brows.

Like this, Mao Mao can't think of hooking up.But he suddenly thought of the description of the deer spirit in the daytime, so he turned into a female body in the dark, and only then did he appear.

An Youyu didn't expect that he was so unlucky that he was caught by bandits and taken up the mountain. If his mother didn't wait for him, she might die of panic.Thinking of this, his shouting became louder.

But obviously, there was no movement from the people outside.

He couldn't help being a little discouraged, just about to sit down and take a rest, but when he saw a flower in front of him, he looked up and saw a young girl appearing in front of the door: "Girl, you..."

"My family's name is Anniang, and I have a friend named Hua Guzi in my boudoir. I don't know if you can deny it?"

An Youyu immediately said with surprise in her eyes: "I recognize it, but she wants you to find Xiaosheng?"

... No, she was looking in the wrong direction.

Maomao thought for a while about the direction the roe deer spirit left, and according to the other party's posture of looking for someone, it might not be able to find it after three days of searching.But, you can't say this: "Yes, please wait at ease, my son. If the bandit forces you to be the Lord of the Village, please don't resist too much, the bandit here will kill people."

"Kill someone?" An Youyu stuttered in fright.

Sure enough, this is the correct way to open up a scholar in the world. Cheng Jin is a complete outlier, and should be removed from the scholar team: "That's right, so you stay at ease, and wait for the servant to sue the government for someone to rescue you. What do you think, son?"

An Youyu actually thought it was very strange, but Hua Guzi also felt the same way to him. He didn't want to expose this in his heart, so he nodded, and didn't ask at all why a girl could break into a bandit's den and why she could The whole body retreated down the mountain and sued the official.

After Mao Mao finished speaking, she left in a hurry, and when she reached the corner of the shadow, she turned into a cat shape and disappeared so quickly.

Cheng Jin was about to sleep when a lump of cats fell on him from the sky, and the county magistrate immediately raised the cats with one hand, and said in a very disgusted tone, "Where did you drill around, how dare you smash it!"

"Hmph! I won't tell you!"

This is also naive enough, he doesn't want to know yet.

Mao Mao squatted on the table and took a sip of tea, turned left once, turned right once, turned three times, and finally couldn't hold back: "Don't you ask me who I met!"

"Do not ask."

Hey, so angry, Maomao couldn't help but jumped up again: "I met the scholar that roe deer spirit was looking for. He was captured by bandits and came up to the mountain to become the master of the village!"

Cheng Jin: ... These days, boys have to learn to protect their innocence.
