Chapter 20 The Missing Judge
Originally, Su An was planning to rest at home for three or five days to stabilize his current state, and then go to the yamen to serve on duty.
But unexpectedly, after only two days at home, a yamen runner hurried over and asked him to go to the yamen to discuss matters.
After Su An arrived at the yamen, he felt that the atmosphere in the yamen was as normal as usual, and there was no strange atmosphere. He could not guess what it was like to ask the county magistrate to call him over so anxiously.
Until I entered the study room of Houya County Zun.
The dark clouds of the county magistrate Song Heng and the commander Zhao Huan made Su An realize that something was wrong.
"I have met the county magistrate."
Su An first looked at Zhao Huan, and then bowed to the county magistrate Song Heng.
"Forgive."
"Zhao Huan, tell him the matter."
Song Heng spoke, his voice full of sorrow, and even full of strong impatience and powerlessness.
"Two judges sent by the government office."
Zhao Huan looked at Su An, said halfway, and took a deep breath: "I'm missing."
"Missing?"
Su An looked at Zhao Huan in disbelief, as if he suspected that he had heard it wrong.
"Last morning, the two adults said they were going to go out of the city to take a look at Hu Xiaoshan, but they did not return last night."
"It's almost evening now. If they don't come back today, they will be gone for two days and two nights."
Zhao Huan's face was full of bitterness: "Isn't this just missing?"
Su An took a deep breath and felt his scalp numb. Two judges from the seventh rank disappeared in Gui'an County. This was only a big deal compared to the case of theft of the baby.
If these two judges from the seventh rank are really not found, or even an accident occurs, Song Heng, the county magistrate, may not be able to sit steadily, and it is no wonder he is impatient.
"What are they doing in Hu Xiaoshan?"
Su An spoke up anxiously.
"I suspect that there is a private cultivation gang in Hu Xiaoshan, so I have to check it out, and we are not allowed to follow us. We are afraid that there are too many people. If there are really a private cultivation entrenchment, the other party will notice it in advance and may escape."
After saying this, Zhao Huan sighed and said, "You are not from our Gui'an County. You don't know that Hu Xiaoshan is not simple."
"More than ten years ago, many people died in Hu Xiaoshan, who were bitten to death by beasts, and even eventually alarmed the government office."
"At that time, the government office also sent immortal officials to search, but in the end nothing was found. Since then, it has begun to be rumored among the people that there are helpless monsters in the Immortal Dynasty circling. At this point, Hu Xiaoshan has become a forbidden area in Gui'an County, and no people have gone up the mountain."
After Zhao Huan said this, Su An was silent. No matter whether there were private gangs on Tiger Soul Mountain or as rumored, there were really big monsters, they had to go to Tiger Soul Mountain to search.
But the two judges from the seventh rank were missing in Hu Xiaoshan. If these immortal officials went there, there would be many dangers.
But if you don't go, it will definitely not work. The two judges sent by the government office have disappeared. They will not search at all in Gui'an County, and will report them directly to the government office. If Song Heng really dares to do this, his position as a seventh-rank county master will definitely not be able to be kept.
"Now, other immortal officials and yamen runners don't know about this. I'll call you over and discuss it with you first."
"Tomorrow, we two will take the immortal officials up the mountain to search."
Zhao Huan looked at Su An and felt a little worried. He was not worried about the private gang entrenchment on Tiger Roar Mountain.
If there are really private gangs, and the two judges were killed by private gangs, the private gangs will definitely know that the yamen will send someone to check, and they will definitely move out overnight.
When these immortal officials go to Hu Xiaoshan to check, there will be no danger at all.
What he was afraid of was that although the immortal official searched the mountain, the great demon who bit the person who went up the mountain to death would return to Tiger Roar Mountain after the immortal official searched the mountain, and his realm would greatly increase.
This is the thing that is most worried, because some of them have intelligence, but their intelligence is not high. Unless they are aware of danger, they will not escape.
Both judges from the seventh grade were missing. Even if they were nine or eighth grade immortals went to search the mountains, they would not let the monster have any fear, but they might lose their lives.
But at this time, it was impossible for him to retreat.
"Affect the order."
Su An nodded. Although he didn't want to go to Hu Xiaoshan after hearing Zhao Huan's words, he knew in his heart that he had no choice but to refuse this matter.
If he really dared to refuse, he would definitely not want his identity as an immortal official, and his cultivation level would definitely be deprived.
"You two don't have to worry too much."
"Tomorrow morning, our county will follow you with the official seal and secretly go to Hu Xiaoshan."
"If there is really danger, the county will take action."
Song Heng took all the expressions of Zhao Huan and Su An, sighed slightly in his heart, and then spoke comforting.
"Mr. Lao is worried about his subordinates' fault."
When Zhao Huan heard this, the sadness on his face subsided and he quickly bowed and bowed.
Song Heng was the state of the seventh rank of Gui'an County, but if he was in Gui'an County, holding an official seal and connecting the immortal fortune, his cultivation level could even reach the state of the sixth rank or even the sixth rank in a short time.
This is also the benefit of the top officials of each yamen. If they are immortal officials of other immortal ranks, they will not be able to connect with the immortal dynasty.
"Why."
Song Heng sighed: "I just hope that the two judges from the government office will have their own auspicious person."
"Don't worry, sir, these two judges went to Tiger Roar Mountain at the same time. Even if it was really an accident, it would not be possible to die at the same time."
"I'm afraid I'm having some trouble, so I haven't come back yet."
"It may even be that I have found the traces of the private gang and left, so I haven't returned yet."
Zhao Huan said something relieved against his will, but he himself didn't believe it.
"I'll go back and have a good rest. I'll take people to Hu Xiaoshan early tomorrow morning."
"I am here, you don't have to come tomorrow, I will go with you in secret."
"Go tomorrow, be careful."
Song Heng reminded Zhao Huan and Su An again, then waved his hand to signal them to retreat.
In this situation, Song Heng felt physically and mentally exhausted, even as steady as him. His head was a little confused and he had no intention of saying anything more.
"yes."
"Subordinates surrender."
Zhao Huan and Su An nodded and said yes, bowed and walked out of the study.
"Why."
After walking out of the study room, he looked up at the dim sky. Zhao Huan couldn't help but sigh, wanting to say something, but when he reached his throat, he suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Master, don't worry, if you have a county master secretly following you tomorrow, we will definitely be fine."
"As for those two judges, what they did, they can only leave it to fate."
