Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-six Suppressing Sinners
(There is another chapter in two hours...)
Tao Xiaowu's external injuries were not serious, and there were almost no external injuries. However, his soul was seriously injured, and his legal domain was even more seriously injured. It was not easy to recover from his injuries.
Fortunately, soon, Marquis Yang Fu sent a lot of medicine for the wound...most of them were precious medicinal materials that nourished and calmed the mind.
These are of great use to Tao Xiaowu!
But even so, it probably wouldn't be possible without the support of half a year and a year.
In addition, of his hundreds of Yin soldiers protecting the law, there are only twenty or thirty left!
Although these guardian Yin soldiers are of little use, they are commendable for their loyalty.
If they hadn't tried their best to block a ghost guard, Tao Xiaowu might not have survived until the end.
Thinking like this, my teeth itch even more when I think of the ghost uncle from Hengting.
This time we must destroy the Hengting ghost uncle...
Yes, there is also the Yan family in Maonanli. They will be dealt with together this time and will not be let go.
I had been unable to take action against them...
Just when I thought of this, I heard Bai Sheng coming over and saying: "Sacrifice wine, the kings and princes are summoned, something big has happened!"
Tao Xiaowu's heart moved and he asked: "What's the matter?"
This Bai Sheng is an official in the Hou Mansion and a close confidant of Yang Fuhou.
Last time, he asked Tao Xiaowu for help to save his deceased father.
Therefore, when faced with Tao Xiaowu's inquiry, he did not give in at all and said: "There are several rural Guizhou heads in the prince country who were killed by evil spirits!"
"What?"
Tao Xiaowu's heart skipped a beat.
Evil ghosts killing people is completely normal in a world like this.
But the people in several villages were killed by evil spirits... at least hundreds of people would die. This is not an ordinary thing!
"Not only in the Hou Kingdom, but also in several surrounding counties, villagers have been killed by evil spirits! It seems that there is going to be a ghost disaster..." As he spoke, his voice trembled slightly.
This kind of thing, there are too many ghosts wandering in the world.
Even if the city under the Hengxia usually needs to be cleared by troops once every ten or twenty years, ghost disasters will break out from time to time.
At that time, groups of ghosts would wander around people's homes, leaving no chickens or dogs behind wherever they passed.
Once a ghost disaster occurs, the situation will be very serious.
Especially large-scale ghost disasters can even destroy counties and countries...
This problem becomes even more serious when encountering bad years, epidemics, floods, etc.!
It's just that in the past few years, the weather has been good around Heng County, and there have been no major disasters or epidemics. The wandering ghosts were also captured by Ghost Bo once last year. How come there are still ghost disasters?
Then Tao Xiaowu thought of the reason and said angrily: "That Ghost Uncle Hengting really deserves to die!"
But last time, in order to deal with him, Tao Xiaowu, the Hengting ghost uncle actually released the evil spirits suppressed in the ghost prison.
However, Tao Xiaowu burst out with luck and scared the ghost uncle away, and the sinners dispersed.
It should be that Uncle Ghost failed to gather those guilty ghosts in the end, so they escaped and wandered around the world.
Tao Xiaowu didn't know at this time that the ghost uncle Hengting was ambushed and lost a clone. Of course, the blame was placed on the ghost uncle Hengting.
However, these guilty ghosts were originally released by Hengting Ghost Uncle, so it is not too unfair to him!
"Yes, so we must encircle and suppress these evil spirits as soon as possible to prevent them from becoming a phenomenon and causing a ghost disaster!"
Bai Sheng's face didn't look good either, even a little pale.
Generally speaking, the sinners suppressed in the ghost prison are the kind of ghosts who have committed the most heinous crimes and are sent to the ghost prison to receive various punishments.
The sinners who were thrown into the ghost prison were already fierce, and when they were suppressed and suffered in the ghost prison, their resentment skyrocketed and they became even more fierce.
If these sinful ghosts caused a disaster, it would probably be much more serious than ordinary ghost disasters!
Bai Sheng's home is in nearby Xieyang County, so he can be easily affected. No wonder his face is so ugly.
"I will go see the prince immediately!" Tao Xiaowu said.
He followed Bai Sheng hurriedly to the inner palace. As soon as he passed through the verandah and came to a courtyard, he heard the angry roar of Yang Fuhou: "This Hengting ghost uncle really deserves to die. Does he want to rebel? How dare he be released.
Sinner?"
It is a grave sin to release sinners from prison without permission!
Not to mention, what is the most precious resource in this era?
In fact, it is not the land, but the population!
In this era, the land was vast and sparsely populated. The imperial court usually only granted land to a few households.
For example, Marquis Yangfu was granted the title of County Marquis of 2,000 households!
This is already the number of household registrations in a small county!
You should know that a county with ten thousand households is called a large county, and its chief is called a county magistrate.
Those with less than 10,000 households are considered small counties and can only be called county heads.
And some small and remote counties only have a population of one or two thousand households!
In short, it can be seen that in this era, human resources are actually the greatest wealth.
There were two thousand households in the Marquis of Yangfu. This time, two li were invaded by sinners. At least the number of households was reduced by one or two hundred households.
That’s one tenth!
How can Marquis Yang Fu not be angry?
"This matter has been notified to the county prince. The county prince replied and ordered the surrounding counties to clear up the criminals. He even plans to send curse guards!" Chen Dao's voice also came over.
But then he said: "Your Majesty, slowing down this matter is not urgent. I think we have to send troops ourselves to kill the guilty ones. At the very least, we must expel them from the country to ensure the peace of the people in our country!"
These words made Yang Fuhou nod his head repeatedly. When he heard the sound of footsteps, he looked up and said happily: "Tao Jun came just in time. Do you know what happened?"
Tao Xiaowu nodded slightly and said: "I didn't expect this Hengting ghost uncle to be so heartless and crazy. It's because he is getting into trouble and has no future, so he is doing the opposite!"
But he firmly placed the shit basin on the head of the ghost uncle Hengting.
Marquis Yang Fu nodded repeatedly, agreed with Tao Xiaowu's words, and said: "Jijiu, I will send you to lead the spiritual soldiers in the house to clear out the ghosts in the territory. What do you think?"
Tao Xiaowu said: "The king treats his subordinates well, and now is the time for them to repay them!"
"Okay, okay, I really saw you right!" Yang Fuhou looked extremely happy: "I will send the soldiers and horses of the Hou Kingdom to help you!"
The soldiers and horses of the Hou Kingdom are actually divided into two parts. One part is the human soldiers and horses, but they are actually militiamen.
The second part is the spiritual soldiers!
Did the Lord ask me to lead the soldiers and horses of Gu Xi State out?
This should be a very confidential matter, right?
"This is a military talisman!"
Yang Fuhou said and handed over a military talisman.
Tao Xiaowu took it. It was obviously just an ordinary copper weapon talisman, but when he held it in his hand, there was a chill that made Tao Xiaowu almost shiver.
I suddenly understood in my heart that this was not an ordinary military talisman, but a spiritual military talisman!
The so-called spiritual soldiers are ghost soldiers who are shadowed by luck and driven by the imperial government.
Just like the Longting soldiers and horses sent by the emperor to protect the Yangfuhou Mansion, they are actually like this!
Since the Marquis of Yangfu colluded with the Gu Xi Kingdom, some soldiers and horses from the Gu Xi Kingdom were sent over to become the guards of the mansion.
Of course, those aristocratic families that have been passed down from generation to generation, have profound foundations, and have strong fortunes also have private spiritual soldiers.
