At this time, Wu Mingchu had just arrived, so naturally he made many mistakes, so it was better to keep silent.

Although the elder seemed to be asking for something, maybe it was a side quest, but he had a big threat of obliteration on his head, but he didn't stay long. After asking the way, he left for the county seat.

"This small town is gloomy and tingly, it's not a good place..."

After walking towards the sun for several miles, the fog gradually thinned, and Wu Ming let out a long breath of relief.

At this time, one can see the surrounding fields stretching across the fields, the rice paddies are criss-crossing, the chickens and dogs hear each other, and the few thatched huts not far away even have smoke rising from the cooking, but it doesn't matter.

After walking for more than a dozen miles, I saw a square city wall with a circumference of several miles. The walls were covered with black moss, the gate was open, and pedestrians were bustling.

"Ten coins to enter the city!"

The soldiers guarding the city had a cold face. When they saw Wu Ming's long body and jade robes, he didn't look like a commoner, his eyes moved slightly.

Wu Ming didn't have much money, and although there were exchanges in this area in the main temple, meritorious deeds were precious, so he didn't pay much attention to this aspect.

But at this time, there are some small troubles.

"It's a bit of a mistake. I knew that wearing a blue shirt and Confucian clothes and finding a sheath for the mahogany sword can pretend to be a scholar and have privileges..."

Wu Ming made a secret note of this, and instead of entering the city, he went to the notice column next to him.

On the side of the city gate, densely packed notices were pasted layer after layer, with withered yellow at the corners, most of which were documents captured at sea, wanted head portraits, and even government orders.

In the middle, there is a bright yellow list, writing:

"...Under the rule of Heitai, in Heishui Town, monsters and evil spirits are rampant, and wild souls are breeding. This official protects the environment and the people, and has the responsibility of guarding the land...However, yin and yang have different paths, and the characteristics call for talented people and strangers from the people, generous and heroic. , Jiemin upside down...regardless of origin, place of origin, but if you have achieved something, you will be granted a hundred taels of silver and a hundred acres of fertile land..."

Underneath is an unfamiliar year number, the date of the month, and a square, bright red official seal.

"Hundred acres of fertile land? This is almost a thousand taels of silver, which is very rich...just... Heishui Town?"

Wu Ming suddenly thought of the place he came from, and laughed dumbly: "I don't want to go around, I still have to go back to the original point..."

He didn't say much at the moment, he stepped forward, gently and skillfully removed the bulletin, and held it in his hand.

"Huh?"

"Someone revealed the list?"

In an instant, a group of people gathered around and looked at him with curious, shocked, and even vaguely gloating eyes.

"Huh? Look at this... I'm afraid the few people who revealed the list before me are more ominous than ominous!"

Wu Ming's heart moved, but his complexion remained unchanged, and his demeanor remained the same.

The two tolerances came over immediately. After seeing it, they felt a little bit wrong. They had seen a lot of people, so they naturally knew that this young man was different from the previous cheaters, so they couldn't help saying: "Mr. If you blame me, no one can save you!"

"Naturally!"

Wu Ming replied with a smile, and entered the city with the two tolerances, and the entry fee was naturally waived.

In Heitai County, it is a bit more prosperous than the outside world. There is not much hunger and cold on the pedestrian surface, and the streets are quite clean. There are rice shops, salt shops, tea shops, pawn shops, wine shops, hotels, cloth shops, jewelry shops, brothels... There are row upon row, and there are shopkeepers who pick out department stores and sell them in the streets.

All the way without talking, when they arrived at the county government office, Wu Ming entered through the side door, and Wu Ming was taken to a side room to wait.

At this time, a small official said: "We will come later, Mr. Wu Inspector, you have to pay attention!"

County Zun is the head of a county, Baili Hou, of course, he doesn't see him whenever he wants, the patrol inspector is in charge of a county's public security, similar to the later generations of public security bureau chiefs, each dynasty has different ranks, some are from the ninth rank, and some are regular nine ranks, but always It is to enter the official body, which is comparable to non-soap officials.

"I know that, thank you for letting me know!"

Wu Ming bowed his hands in salute, but what he got was a blank stare.

"snort!"

The little official who didn't get the expected red envelope and tip snorted coldly, and retreated. Wu Ming immediately knew that he had offended the brat, and if he was entangled in the future, it would be even more troublesome.

It's just that he is not from the local area, but a foreigner, and he is penniless, but it doesn't matter.

This Inspector Wu was obviously busy with his affairs, so Wu Ming waited for more than half an hour before he finally saw the real person.

Of course, there was no tea or snacks during the period, which is the consequence of being wicked to the kid.

"Student Wu Ming, I have met Wu inspector!"

When Wu Ming saw an official come in, he was seven feet tall, his face was under forty years old, his skin was dark, his eyes were bright, his face was sharp and angular, and he carried an aura of law and majesty, so he naturally knew that it was a black platform. Wu Hong, the county inspector, bowed deeply in salute.

Naturally, I can't say that I have no name and no surname at this time. Anyway, I used 'nameless' as my name before, and other reincarnated people will only think it's just a pseudonym after hearing it.

This is when the false is true and the true is false.

"Your name is Wu Ming? What virtue and ability do you have, dare to take this list? Huh? Have you ever been to school?"

Wu Hong's eyes twitched when he saw that Wu Ming just bowed to him instead of kneeling down to salute, and he couldn't help asking when he heard Wu Ming calling himself a 'student'.

He is in charge of law and order in a county, no matter what kind of rogue people, even gangsters, will be trembling when they see him, they will be round if they want to be round, and flat if they want to be flat, ordinary people will kneel down directly when they see him, otherwise it is disrespectful.

At this time, seeing Wu Ming being polite and calm, he took a high look in his heart.

Of course, this also has something to do with Wu Ming pretending to be a scholar.

Throughout the dynasties, as long as it was an agrarian empire, there was always preferential treatment for scholars.

"I have been studying since I was a child, and I am ashamed that I have no fame, but I just need to know a few words..."

Although Wu Ming has a little ink in his stomach, who knows what happened to the Four Books and Five Classics of this dynasty? If you say that you are a child, a scholar, you will definitely reveal your truth in the test, but it is better to say that you only know a few words.

Anyway, after reading the announcements outside the city, Wu Ming knew that the fonts here are similar to those of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there is no serious problem.

"Since this is the case, it is also very rare..."

Wu Hong nodded slightly, his expression softened.

Although Wu Ming is not even a child, he is also from a scholarly family. He was born as a scholar, and he is a scholar reserve. It is not a formal occasion at this time, and he is not a seventh-rank county official. Naturally, he let it go lightly: " The list is not light, once you accept it, you can't shirk it, have you considered it?"

"Please don't worry, my lord! I have learned the skill of breathing and breathing since I was a child, and my father and I have grown old together. I have asked for some magic talismans, and I am still a little sure about it..."

Wu Ming said, seeing that Wu Hong seemed to be hesitant, he continued: "This trip is because of the boredom of reading, thinking that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles, and coming out to increase knowledge, this time I came over the Black Mountain ..."

This last sentence was thought of by the people in Heishui Town, who saw how frightened they were when they came out of Heishan, so they had an idea and added it.

"Black Mountain?"

Wu Hong's complexion also changed when he heard this, he stared at Wu Ming for a long time, then smiled and said: "Now the world is not peaceful, you can travel around, it is obvious that you have a strange skill, if this is the case, then I will put your name It's reported..."

"Thank you, my lord!"

Wu Ming saluted deeply, at this time the tasks in the Sea of ​​Consciousness suddenly changed:

[Successfully arrived at Heitai County and uncovered the list, branch task - arrived (completed)! 】

[The second branch task is started: investigation! 】

[Mission objective: You, who uncovered the magistrate's list, need to find out the truth of the catastrophe in Heishui Town within seven days. If you succeed, you will start the main mission! One thousand small merits will be deducted for failure, if the merits are not enough, it will be obliterated! 】

‘Blackwater Town? '

Wu Ming sighed in his heart, and frowned a little: 'It's really related to that town? But why bother, to come to the county first? '

Wu Hong asked again: "Well, you are a young talent, and I, the elders of Heishui Town, please leave it to you. The county lord has ordered that within seven days, there must be a result... Do you have any other requests?"

At this time, a servant served tea, and the conversation came to an end.

"This... To deal with ghosts and goblins, students still need some materials, such as setting up altars and offerings..."

Wu Ming pretended to be a little embarrassed.

However, he is indeed penniless and destitute now.

"This official will naturally tell the public account that when you leave, take ten taels of silver and leave!"

Wu Hong frowned and picked up his teacup.

Naturally, Wu Ming knew that this was serving tea to see off the guests, so he immediately got up and said goodbye.

...

After leaving the Yamen, Wu Ming touched the five taels of silver in his bosom, but he sneered.

On the book, it is ten taels, but the household cao and small officials at all levels will shrink by half immediately after each level. This is the rule, and no one can say anything.

And Wu Hong said it was ten taels, but in fact, the book may have gone twenty or thirty taels, which need not be elaborated.

Finally, he thought about asking him to do something, and what he was given was the top-grade official silver in white and fine silk, which was scattered and shone with silver light, not too big or too small, enough for a family of three to live on for a year.

"After I revealed the list, I don't know whether Tu Yanghao and his group's missions have been changed or failed, or they may even be revealed again..."

Wu Ming seemed to be wandering around the county town aimlessly, but he didn't care about the tail following from the yamen behind him.

The government is not a fool, how could he let him take the money and leave? It is bound to be followed.

It's fine at this time, but once the seven-day limit passes, or if you show the intention of running away, what will happen... hehe...

"However... the water in Heishui Town looks very deep..."

Wu Ming didn't go out of the city to stimulate the two tails, instead he walked smoothly, but his brows were tightened: "That Wu Hong! He has strong muscles and bones, and his martial arts are at least equivalent to the fourth level of Da Zhou's physical body. There can be a maximum of 100 subordinates and servants... Even if the quota is empty, there are still 20 or 30 servants with official status, which can greatly offset the power of spells...even if he can't , You can also use the county lieutenant, and there will be three or five hundred soldiers in one county..."

"With such a great power, can't it deal with a strange incident in a small town?"

Wu Ming frowned.
