I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster

When Qin Shaoyou and the others returned to the capital, the first thing they saw were heads hanging above the city gate.

If it is in a border town, it is nothing new to hang a head on the top of the city.

After all, it is necessary to deter foreigners and bandits.

But in the capital city, in what the common people call the 'land of the first good', it is quite rare to hang a head on the top of the city.

And it's not just one or two hanging, but a row of more than a dozen.

The expressions of these heads may be ferocious or painful, but the strange thing is that they can still make sounds.

They screamed and wailed at the top of the city, so that people who passed by the city gate below did not dare to look up, and all of them turned pale with fright, and passed quickly.

With a bit of surprise, Qin Shaoyou asked the night watchman who sent them an order and returned to the capital with them: "Brother Cao, what's going on?"

The Hundred Household Officer surnamed Cao heard the words and explained: "Qin Qianhu has been investigating the case outside recently, and it is normal to not know about this matter.

These people were originally the guards of the city gate. On the night when the king's tomb entered the bandits, they first tried to kill the king, and then opened the city gate to escape after the incident was revealed. Enter the city and cause a catastrophe!

After these people were arrested, His Majesty issued an imperial decree, beheaded their heads, hung them on the gates of the capital, and sealed their souls in the heads with secret techniques, so that they would suffer all the time. The sharp pain of the wound and the suffering of the soul in the wind and sun.

The purpose of doing this is not only to deter Xiao Xiao, but also to warn a small group of people with ulterior motives in the court not to mess around..."

"I didn't expect so many things to happen in Beijing during the time I left."

Qin Shaoyou put on a dumbfounded expression.

In his heart, he was thinking that these city gate guards whose heads had been beheaded should be the group of people Cai Guizhong mentioned earlier.

It's a pity, not only did they fail to be famous in history, but they were found and hunted down by Emperor Jianwu's people so quickly...

Just looking inside these heads, there are actually old and weak women and children. I don't know if it's the relatives of the city gate guards who were imprisoned, or the innocent people who were killed for their meritorious deeds?

Looking at the heads on the top of the wall, Qin Shaoyou silently recited in his heart the sutras of superseding that he had learned from Monk Ma.

When passing through the city gate, Qin Shaoyou and the others were inspected very strictly.

The soldiers guarding the city gate did not relax or slack in the slightest because of their identities of thousands of households and hundreds of households of the demon town.

Cao Baihu, who was traveling with them, was afraid that they might misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "Qin Qianhu, my lords, because many things have happened in the capital recently, His Majesty has issued a strict order to strictly check and screen all the sects in the capital, and It’s not targeting you, please cooperate.”

"It should have been like this a long time ago." Qin Shaoyou looked reasonable and told everyone to accept the inspection and not to embarrass these city gate guards.

After the inspection was completed, the city gate guard here bowed his hands and saluted Qin Shaoyou, thanked them for their cooperation with a smile on his face, and sent them into the city.

After entering the city, Qin Shaoyou did not immediately look for Cai Guizhong and Li Erlang.

Instead, he followed Cao Baihu back to the headquarters of the Zhenyaosi to hand over the errands.

On the way to the headquarters of Zhenyaosi, Qin Shaoyou observed the surroundings with [Mighty Eyes] and [Debate], and found that the patrol force in the city was greatly strengthened.

On the surface, the soldiers and horses of the five cities wore armor and knives, and they were fully armed and patrolled around the city.

In the dark, the fans of the Editing Factory, the night watchman of the Monster Town, and the secret agents sent by several other yamen closely monitored the passers-by and the residents of the city.

Because of this situation, the atmosphere in the capital became extremely depressing.

The common people dare not whisper to each other at all, and even acquaintances do not dare to say hello when they meet, for fear that they will be arrested by secret spies as spies.

Seeing these situations, Qin Shaoyou quietly pondered in his heart:

"Emperor Jianwu made such a battle, not for arresting people, but for guarding against someone who would continue to sabotage his good deeds... It seems that he really has a backup plan. What could it be? A gift for captives? ?”

The gift of offering captives was originally an act of offering sacrifices to heaven.

If Emperor Jianwu held this ceremony on the night of the full moon or on the eve of the full moon, then in all likelihood, it would not be the heaven and the earth that would be sacrificed, but the mad god in the blood moon.

I just don't know, on what day will this prisoner offering ceremony be held?

I don't know what kind of arrangements and arrangements Emperor Jianwu made in this ceremony?

Qin Shaoyou went back to the headquarters of the Zhenyaosi first. Apart from handing over the tasks, he also had another purpose, which was to see if the sixth sister, Qin Qiaoer, and the others had found any clues.

Long before Wangling's action, Qin Shaoyou secretly delivered a message to Qin Qiaoer and Lu Bing, asking them to investigate whether Emperor Jianwu had backup means.

If there is, you have to find a way to destroy it and kill this matter in the cradle.

Cao Baihu has been secretly looking at Qin Shaoyou, but Qin Shaoyou's [Bright Eyes] and [Debate] are very subtle, and he didn't find anything unusual.

Soon Qin Shaoyou and the others returned to the headquarters of Zhenyaosi. When handing over the errands, they met the sixth sister Qin Qiaoer.

Both of them were very happy, chatting very enthusiastically, and did not hide it from the people next to them.

After all, their relationship is well known in the headquarters of Zhenyaosi. If Qin Shaoyou comes back, Qin Qiaoer will be suspected if he doesn't come to see him.

They talked about words of mutual concern, and it seemed that there was no problem, but in fact, the code words were hidden in these words.

Qin Shaoyou knew from the secret words spoken by the sixth sister that they hadn't found any clues about Emperor Jianwu's successor for the time being.

And Qin Qiaoer also learned from her younger brother that Si Xiu was rescued safely, and received a news that shocked her: the second sister was found.

If there were no outsiders nearby, or if Luo An had not appeared here, Qin Qiaoer would have wanted to pull Qin Shaoyou to ask about the second sister.

When Luo An saw Qin Shaoyou this time, he was quite enthusiastic.

As soon as he walked over, he took Qin Shaoyou's hand and asked for warmth: "Hahaha, Shaoyou is back. You have worked hard these days."

Immediately afterwards, he boasted again: "I have already read the Black Lotus Sect monster and the case report that you sent back. You are worthy of being the tiger of our demon suppressing division. It is really powerful. You handled this case very well. Our town demon boss swelled up in front of His Majesty! Wei Bao even came to me to beg for someone, and wanted to send you to the editing factory. Heh, he had a good idea. How could I agree to this? He sprayed it back."

After a pause, Luo An began to hint and woo again: "Don't worry, Shaoyou, although Commander Lu is going home to recuperate for the time being, I'm still here, and no one can take away your credit.

I have already handed the booklet to His Majesty, detailing your merits one by one.

To be honest, with the achievements you have made, it is more than enough to be a pacifier. It's a waste of talent to punish thousands of households, and I don't know what Commander Lu thought at the beginning...

But you don't have to worry, and don't worry, I, Luo An, will definitely help you and get the reward as soon as possible. "

Luo An's words almost didn't make it clear: Lu Bing has stepped down, you can follow me from now on, and you will never be without you!

Obviously, Luo An didn't know that all nobles who 'valued' Qin Shaoyou would have no good end.

Qin Shaoyou grinned at him, smiling very happily, cupped his hands and said: "Thank you Lord Luo for my humble post, please take care of Lord Luo in the future!"

"It's easy to say, easy to say." Luo An said with satisfaction, in his opinion, this should be Qin Shaoyou expressing his surrender.

It's just that this is obviously something to be happy about, but for some reason, he couldn't stop shivering.
