Chapter VI The Disappearance Case

Hearing Su Hao's words, Zhang Jiatao was not angry. He and the Su family were just cooperating. If he wanted Su Hao to take action, he had to offer benefits before he could ask Su Hao to take action.

"My dear nephew, this is what happened."

After pondering for a while, Zhang Jiatao said: "In the past three months, hunters in Baishu Township have often disappeared in Xiaowutai Mountain. Now dozens of people have disappeared, and many businessmen have disappeared. The case files have been piled up in the Yamen.

The desk, so Uncle Wei would like to ask you to go to Xiaowutai Mountain to find out what's going on."

"Uncle Zhang, the disappearance of the Orion is not a big deal, right? Just send some detectives to check it out, right?"

After listening to Zhang Jiatao's words, Su Hao frowned and said, he knew about Little Wutai Mountain. Little Wutai Mountain is located at the intersection of Taihang Mountain, Yanshan Mountain and Hengshan Mountain. It belongs to the remaining range of Hengshan Mountain because there are five prominent mountains in the east, west, south, north and middle.

The peak is also called Wutai Mountain. Later, in order to distinguish it from Wutai Mountain in Taiyuan Prefecture, it was changed to Little Wutai Mountain.

"Sent."

Zhang Jiatao shook his head and said: "I sent the head catcher Ding Xian to take people there four or five times, and also brought the hunters over there, and almost searched all over Xiaowutai Mountain, but no one was seen alive, no corpses were found, and there was no clue.

None, and there are more and more missing people these days."

Speaking of this, Zhang Jiatao looked solemn and said: "So I suspect that there are evil cultivators taking souls to practice evil methods in Xiaowutai Mountain. I hope my nephew can make a trip."

If it were other places, then he could still prevent the people from going there, but Xiaowutai Mountain is the commercial thoroughfare leading to Xuanfu Town. There are countless caravans in the entire Datong Prefecture who want to pass through here. If there is a big fuss,

His troubles are not small either.

"In that case, my nephew should go there."

Hearing this, Su Hao chuckled.

"Then I'll trouble my nephew. If my nephew can relieve my uncle from this trouble, I will definitely not be stingy."

Hearing Su Hao's consent, Zhang Jiatao also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't have to find Su Hao. The Ming Dynasty can firmly dominate the world, so it naturally has no shortage of means to deal with practitioners. As long as he reports it to Datong City, there will naturally be experts coming over.

However, as the magistrate of Yu County, if everything requires the Fucheng's efforts, then he, the magistrate, has done his job.

"Then my nephew will arrange things at home first, and then go to the county government office to look at the case files."

Su Hao looked serious. He was not the kind of arrogant idiot, so he would not rush to Xiaowutai Mountain. The fact that the other party was able to escape the search of the county police officers showed that the other party's strength should not be underestimated.

After the two of them exchanged polite greetings, Zhang Jiatao stood up and left.



"Uncle Fu, please go and help me prepare my things for going out."

Seeing Zhang Jiatao's leaving figure, Su Hao narrowed his eyes and sighed secretly in his heart. As long as he was without fame, he would never be able to get rid of Zhang Jiatao's influence.

The tax system of the Ming Dynasty was actually very fucked up. The whipping method implemented by Zhang Juzheng did give a small number of people a sigh of relief.

However, after Zhang Juzheng died of illness, the whipping method lost its most powerful supporter. After that, officialdom corruption became more serious and various disadvantages arose. The most serious one was the increase of "three rates" in recent years.

In addition, duck rates, ox rates, grass insects and other strange and weird rates also appeared openly.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Su family relies on Zhang Jiatao. Unlike other large squire families, the Su family has no one to support them in the officialdom. Now that Zhang Jiatao is protecting them, the Su family will not be able to collect taxes or increase distribution. Once Zhang Jiatao is gone,

Protect him, the taxes and bonuses from those monsters and monsters will definitely make him doubt his life.

It is estimated that before he could finish his three-year filial piety period and take the imperial examination, the Su family's property would be divided up.

Although he has now embarked on the path of cultivation, he cannot resist the trend of the times. With his current cultivation level, he can control a paper man against a hundred people, but these hundred people only refer to ordinary people. A random person from a hundred households is enough to make him hate him.

Already.

Through the travel notes of generations of ancestors of the Su family, Su Hao also had some understanding of the level of strength in this world at the end of the Ming Dynasty. Although there were practitioners in this world, there was no one who could defeat the country by one person. The level of strength was probably lower than that of Uncle Jiu.

The Zombie Supreme is just a little bit stronger.

Although there are practitioners and ghosts in this world, they are only a handful after all, but the real masters are ordinary people. In fact, he has often heard that a certain place is haunted in the past two years, but ghosts are like lottery jackpots.

He heard a lot, saw little, and never saw anything that really happened to him. This is why he traveled through the world for two years but didn't find anything wrong with the world.

"Master, everything is ready."

Not long after, Fu Bo returned to the lobby holding a small box.

Su Hao took the small box and opened it. There were not many things inside, including eight talismans, two bottles of detoxifying elixirs, a bottle of golden sore medicine to treat trauma and stop bleeding, a belt, two sleeve arrows and a bow.

crossbow.

These things are all life-saving things left by Su An. The eight talismans were obtained by Su An from the Taoist priests of Maoshan with a lot of money. They are basically used to protect the body and ward off evil spirits.

Because they have practiced the secret art of paper figures and consumed a lot of energy and energy, the Su family are all sick and physically inferior to ordinary people. Therefore, the Su family has never been stingy when it comes to saving their lives. They even use crossbows that are strictly prohibited by the imperial court.

arrive.

In the past few months, he has spent a lot of energy and energy refining his magic power. Although he has Yang Yuan Jue and a large number of tonic medicines to make up for it, it is easy to destroy but difficult to build. Now he is also a sick man, and he is probably only

You can beat a kid.

With these things and the tactics of spreading paper, at least when he encounters an enemy, he still has the power to fight back.



After arranging family affairs, Su Hao headed towards the county government office.

The county government office was not far from Su's house, only two streets away. When Su Hao arrived at the gate of the county government office, there were already police officers waiting at the door.

"Master Su, Capt. Ding is already waiting inside!"

Seeing Su Hao's arrival, the police officer waiting at the gate of the county government office rushed to greet him. As a county government police officer, he naturally knew the identity of the Su family.

"Lead the way."

Su Hao said calmly, and then stepped into the county government office.

As the policemen arrived at the prison cell on the east side, Su Hao saw Yu County's head policeman Ding Xian, a man with a straight nose, deep facial features, and a strong physique.

"Master Su!"

Seeing Su Hao, Ding Xian took the lead and bowed. Although it was his first time to see Su Hao, he did not dare to underestimate Su Hao. The Su family had already taken root in Yu County before Zhang Jiatao took office in Yu County. Over the past ten years,

Both Zhang Jiatao and the previous county magistrate relied on the Su family to suppress the ghosts in Yu County and maintain the tranquility of Yu County. Even the county magistrates of several surrounding counties often paid heavily to ask the Su family to take action.

"Ding Captou!"

Ding Xian's courtesy was thorough, so Su Hao naturally didn't put on airs and returned the favor with a smile.

"Master Su, the files on the disappearance cases are all here. Master Su, you can take a look at them first. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me."

After a few polite words, Ding Xian walked to a bookshelf and took down a stack of files.
