The Republic of China Demon Cloud Records

The merman meat has been fed, Tangxi held Sui Ren's fingers with his hand, the knuckles were clenched tightly and turned white, Sui Ren looked at Jiang Liannan and said, "Let's go, or I'll see you later The mayor is too late."

While Du Juan ran back with a bunch of things in his arms, he pulled Tangxi's clothes carefully, and looked there with his eyes, as if he didn't dare to go there, and he was very nervous: "Is my brother better?"

Tangxi felt the tip of her nose sore, she couldn't say that such an approach was right, but it seemed true, if her younger brother died, what would this little girl do in this chaotic world.

Her mouth seemed to be glued, Du Juan looked at Tangxi, couldn't help but let out another cry, then she opened her mouth and said, "It's much better, nothing serious happened, this is for you."

She took out a stack of money from her clothes, rolled it up and stuffed it into Du Juan's hand: "I still have something to do, your brother is not awake yet, if he wakes up, take the money and bring him Go eat something delicious."

Du Juan's face was a little surprised, and she touched the bag, not daring to take it and not willing to hand over the money, if she had money, she would be able to take Du Tianci to heal his injuries.

Sui Ren turned around and walked a few steps first, then turned his head to wait for her, Tangxi stroked Du Juan's hair: "If your brother recovers this time, he will definitely be with you for a long time."

Although Du Juan was bewildered, he still showed a smile, nodded heavily and said, "Okay. I see."

Tangxi looked at Jiang Liannan again, and said seriously: "Take good care of these two children, the hope you planted yourself is a good fruit."

Turning around and walking out with Sui Ren, Tangxi was in a bad mood, but when he got to the crowd, he was disturbed by various voices, and that little emotion was quickly forgotten by him on purpose. the back of the head.

Sui Ren and Tangxi bought a pen, a cowhide notebook, and a foreign document in the store, and went to the restaurant to find the county magistrate. They waited for the boss downstairs. Looking at the two of them from a distance, they came up to him and asked: "Excuse me, are they the two adults sent by Yichasi?"

Tangxi packed up her mood and showed a polite smile. She touched Sui Ren with her arm, and Sui Ren took out the certificate of Yichasi. Be careful where you step, the county magistrate is already drinking tea upstairs."

The boy at the side hurried to the front to open the way, the fat shopkeeper's eyes were only cracked with laughter, and the mandarin jacket on his body was dangling. It was really a joy to see his belly growing: "You two take a short rest, Chat with the county magistrate, our restaurant prepares good food and wine today, and the two of you are satisfied."

This enthusiasm is really a bit too much, Tangxi smiled and took Sui Ren's arm and stepped up the stairs to the box on the second floor. As soon as he reached the door, a male voice came from inside the room: "You will not worry about this matter." In this way, quickly count the population for me..."

Tangxi and Sui Ren listened for a while, and the boss called out: "Lord County Chief, the two guests have already arrived."

The voices in the room stopped abruptly, and when he spoke again, it was already a relatively quiet voice: "Well, let the two of them come in."

The door was opened, Tang Xi and Sui Ren walked in, He Zhiyuan lowered his voice and explained a few words, and waved away those young men. He had a greasy hair, gold-rimmed glasses, and a Wearing a dark green pinstriped suit, he stood up from his seat, looked unhappy, stretched out his hand to the two of them and said, "He Zhiyuan, the magistrate of Anyuan County, you two inspectors What is the comrade of Si here for?"

After Sui Ren and Tangxi shook hands with him one by one and introduced themselves, they put the presents on the table first: "We are here this time to investigate the spring drought."

Tangxi showed a smile, Sui Ren was paralyzed as usual, just sat quietly on the seat, while He Zhiyuan listened to their words, he briefly looked at the ID card in his hand.

He raised his head and put the documents on the table: "I only met you two after listening to the words of Commander Gao. Let me express my own attitude first. I personally think that spring drought is a rare weather phenomenon. It may be due to various The temperature effect caused by the cause."

He pushed his glasses, and Tangxi was worried that this person had no intention of chatting with them after listening to his unwavering statement: "I still have a lot of things to do now, because some previous decisions have led to the county There are a lot of refugees inside, maybe the High Commander has heard some rumors outside and thinks this thing is weird, so I asked you to help, but I don’t believe it at all.”

Tangxi blinked, picked up a glass of water and took a sip by herself. The sweet orange juice was too sweet for her. She pressed the corner of her mouth with the handkerchief on the table, endured the sweetness before she said: " Of course I understand, after all, it is unscientific for everyone to believe something that cannot be explained.”

He Zhiyuan seemed to have a funny look behind his glasses, and he said: "So this member of the "Identity Division" can still understand science, I thought you were studying those ghost stories and monsters every day. "

Tangxi really wanted to spill the remaining orange juice on this person's face, she could see that this person was very prejudiced against those who hunted and crossed monsters: "Of course we need to learn all kinds of things, basically I can read all kinds of books. I’ve seen it, and it’s also to deal with different people.”

Sui Ren could hear that He Zhiyuan was mocking the two of them, but he didn't care too much about the mermaid in his mind. It was a strange thing for a mermaid to appear in this county, plus he just fed flesh and blood. Proficiency, he suddenly felt that Jiang Liannan must have created a lot of life and death.

Sui Ren suddenly had a thought in his mind, where did these people go, whether they were used by someone with a heart, and why no one was by Jiang Lianan's side.

Tangxi smiled and continued to face this proud guy: "However, many things in science cannot be explained clearly. Let me call our knowledge as metaphysics. I don't expect the county magistrate to understand, but please take a moment to listen to me. explain."

At the end, she showed a playful smile on her face, blinked her eyes and emphasized: "It can be regarded as completing the task of Commander Gao. After all, you have caused a lot of trouble for Commander Gao. If he hears that the two of us have nothing to do, he Maybe the nobleman is afraid of trouble and will let you do it."

He Zhiyuan looked at Tangxi, finally nodded and said, "Okay, tell me what monsters and ghosts there will be in the spring drought."

Tangxi asked the boss to find pens, ink and rice paper, and wrote the word "Hanba" on the paper, explaining: "According to folklore, Hanba is a woman who dies with great resentment, and then turns into a zombie, a zombie After training, he becomes a Hanba, and wherever he goes, he will be affected by drought."

He Zhiyuan has also heard this ghost story before, pushed his glasses and let out a casual hum, clasping his fingers to support his chin, listening to her continue, Tang Xi scribbled a relationship diagram, and then drew on the word zombie On the cross: "This statement is completely wrong. In fact, according to the information we have collected, Hanba was a goddess in ancient times."

"She looks very good, and she can be regarded as the goddess of the sun." She used a brush to outline a figure of a woman on the paper. She held a fireball similar to the sun in her palm, dispelled the dark clouds and heavy rain, and let the Those who were drowned by the flood were saved.

He Zhiyuan really doesn't believe in such myths and stories, but Tangxi occasionally draws corresponding pictures on the paper as he explains, which is just enough for him to listen patiently.

"At that time, the Han Ba ​​was still called the Goddess Ba, but because it violated the regulations and participated in the struggle of mortals, it couldn't return to the sky. After a long time, people gradually forgot that it was the goddess who helped them, and formed it for the rain. performed the ritual of banishing her."

"One pass ten, ten pass one hundred, one hundred pass one thousand. By the time other people hear her name again, she has become a drought."

After the story was told, He Zhiyuan picked up the ink painting that Tangxi had sketched casually, looked at it again, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this person's painting was beautiful, but he asked, "You mean there are celestial maidens in the county? Why? possible."

Tangxi smiled: "It's impossible that I don't know. We have seen a lot of monsters and ghosts. You can't just say that he doesn't exist without seeing it. Don't be angry, Magistrate He."

Looking at He Zhiyuan's raised eyes following the voice, Tangxi was a little annoyed and said again: "We are just telling you according to the rules, hoping that we can agree to investigate this matter in the county, if there is really no reason for this , we will definitely come to apologize to the county magistrate.”

County Magistrate He's face brightened a bit, and he asked again: "I've also inquired about you, and I heard that you still need a lot of money to deal with the matter, and all the money in my county is used for governance, and there is no extra money to give to you. "

Tangxi's good temper would be worn out by this eccentric guy, and he explained with a smirk: "Don't worry about this matter, if we really need to take action from the Special Investigation Department, Commander Gao said, Qian He will give it, after all, it is also his county."

Tangxi deliberately emphasized his words about the county seat, and she expressed her happiness seeing the other party's loss.

He Zhiyuan saw that the reason was blocked, and he had no choice but to let the commander try if he wanted to try.

Only then did the two put away their arrogance, and the fat boss over there heard the voice of the conversation gradually subsiding inside the door, waved his hands and asked people to bring in the prepared meals one by one.

Tangxi smiled and said, "This gift is considered our meeting gift, and I hope you can issue a document to prove that we are investigating legally."

He Zhiyuan nodded with a dark face: "Let's eat first, and the documents will be delivered to you within today."
