Because the purpose this time was to search the mountains, Situ Wen did not follow, but Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo came together.Although they might not be able to help, Song Wuya wanted to go into the mountains to look for clues that might exist here. If there were any clues, maybe he could really find the whereabouts of those official banks.

In the early morning of the second day, the imperial envoy and Situ Yi immediately discussed, and they had already made a plan.Lead the way by the brave people in this village, and search the entire mountain forest closely.

Although the mountain forest seems small, the mountain range behind it is very vast.It is obviously impossible for the manpower here to find this place in one day.

"Lord Situ, Lord Situ!"

After the discussion was over, the search team was about to set off when suddenly there was a shout from a distance.

Everyone turned their heads to look, but they saw dozens of people galloping towards them on horseback. Wasn't the person who shouted at the head the county magistrate of Jinnan County?

Situ Yi and the others immediately frowned: "Why is he here?"

"That's right! Uncle, this is too coincidental. How did the magistrate of Jinnan know that we came here?" Song Wuya was also surprised. They didn't report their coming here, even the people in Songjiang Mansion Other officials may not know, let alone the Jinnan county magistrate.

Everyone kept silent, just waiting for the arrival of Jinnan County Magistrate.

"Woo!" With a long yell, Zhang Hui, magistrate of Jinnan County, grabbed the horse and jumped off the horse.As soon as he dismounted from his horse, he immediately knelt down on the ground, "My subordinate, Zhang Hui, magistrate of Jinnan County, has seen the imperial envoy and the magistrate."

"Msg Zhang is exempt!" The Imperial Envoy immediately waved his hand, signaling Zhang Hui to get up.

Song Wuya, who heard this, was puzzled.As for the arrival of the imperial envoy, he has never passed by Jinnan County, how did he know?

"I heard that the imperial envoy and the magistrate came to search the mountains because of the beasts hurting people in the forest, and I came here to support you." Zhang Hui explained his purpose as soon as he opened his mouth, and also told Situ Yi and the others before. What was discussed. "This mountain and forest is a place under the jurisdiction of the lower officials, but this kind of thing happened. Now the imperial envoy is even asked to intervene in person, the lower officials really deserve to die!"

Speaking of Zhang Hui kneeling on the ground again, the Imperial Envoy immediately said: "This beast hurting people is a natural disaster. What is the crime of County Magistrate Zhang? Since he came, he just happened to search with us. "

Zhang Hui stood up and looked at the Imperial Envoy and Situ Yi with flattering expressions, but he didn't seem to notice that the expressions of the other people beside him had changed.

"I wonder if the two adults have any plans?" Zhang Hui asked directly.

After hearing this, Situ Yi was slightly dissatisfied immediately: "The plan is naturally drawn up. Does Magistrate Zhang feel that there are any flaws in the plan made by the Imperial Envoy and Ben Guan?"

"I don't dare to be an official." Zhang Hui immediately sensed that Situ Yi's words were in a bad tone, and said: "After all, an official is an official under the jurisdiction of this mountain forest, and the yamen servants under me are also familiar with this. So it's just I want to recommend myself and ask the subordinate officials to lead a team to search the bushy area on the west side of the forest. After all, it is the most complicated place in the forest, and I am afraid that something will happen if the guards of the Imperial Envoy and the officials of Songjiang Mansion are not familiar with the terrain."

"So that's the case. Since County Magistrate Zhang has good intentions, then I will follow what you say." Upon hearing this, the Imperial Envoy immediately agreed.

At this moment, Song Wuya, listening to Zhang Hui's words, frowned and felt something was wrong.Immediately, he didn't care what the officials were like, and walked up to them and said something.

"I have the guts to ask County Magistrate Zhang, why are the yamen servants under your command familiar with this most complicated part of the mountain forest?"

Zhang Hui was startled when he heard this, and turned his head to look at Song Wuya, only to see Song Wuya in a normal suit, his face turned serious immediately, he raised his finger and pointed at his nose and scolded: "Bold, who are you, dare to speak so bluntly to me?" Talk? What's more, there is an imperial envoy here, so I'm not afraid of contradicting him! After all, you have a heart, come here, let me take this thief down."

No one expected that there would be such a sudden scene, Song Wuya just said a few words, and Zhang Hui was so angry.Situ Yi on the side listened, and immediately sneered.

"Magistrate Zhang, since you know that the imperial envoy is here, you are still yelling and giving orders, aren't you afraid of offending the imperial envoy? No matter how bad it is, I, the magistrate of Songjiang, is still here. Is it too much to ignore this official?"

Just these few words made cold sweat flow out of Zhang Hui's forehead, and his subordinates immediately froze in place and did not dare to move.He also hastily argued: "Lord Situ, please calm down. I am also impatient for a while. After all, this place is within my Jinnan territory. I forgot these etiquettes for a while. I hope you don't blame me."

Originally, Situ Yi didn't want to have any trouble with him. After all, he didn't have any direct evidence in his hand. The reason why he said that just now was nothing more than to save Song Wuya from the siege.Seeing what he said at this moment, he immediately waved his hand to indicate that he didn't care.However, Situ Yi suddenly changed the subject, and asked after what Song Wuya asked just now: "My niece and son-in-law are a little straightforward, but the question he asked made me a little curious. Can my lord clear up some doubts for this official and the imperial envoy?"

Zhang Hui, who was originally angry because of Song Wuya's question just now, clearly wanted to avoid this topic.But now that his immediate superior, Songjiang prefect Situ Yi said this, he looked up, and the imperial envoy beside him also looked expectant, which made him a little troubled.

Looking at the hesitant Zhang Hui, Song Wuya suddenly sneered and said, "Master Imperial Envoy, Uncle, this junior just remembered that this seems to be nothing worth asking. This junior heard that after the beasts in the mountains hurt people, all The corpses were all found by county magistrate Zhang's yamen servants. Now that he said this, it seems that he is familiar with it because he has found many corpses in that area."

Zhang Hui, who didn't know how to answer this question at first, was overjoyed when he heard Song Wuya say that, and nodded his head: "Young Master is right, Young Master is right, that's why."

Seeing his happy agreement, Song Wuya actually laughed. He laughed loudly and said, "That's really great! County magistrate Zhang is really a coincidence. His coming, on the contrary, saved us a lot of money. No need for hard work! Since the corpses were found in that place, it means that the beast is entrenched in that place, and we just turn it upside down and it's over?"

Song Wuya's loud laughter finally made Zhang Hui understand that if Song Wuya rescued him just now, it was a trap for him, waiting for him to get inside.At this moment, his face was pale, like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, he was stunned in place, not knowing what to say.

"Oh! Master Situ, I heard you say that your niece and son-in-law are extremely intelligent. I didn't believe it before, but now it seems that your intelligence is really different from ordinary people!" Hearing Song Wuya's words, even that The imperial envoys were all happy.

But at this moment, Zhang Hui could only smile embarrassingly and look aside from time to time.

The details of this scene naturally made Song Wuya see every detail.Zhang Hui was obviously a little nervous, Song Wuya suddenly thought, maybe Zhang Hui offered to search that place, the purpose is to cover up the truth that may exist there.And this matter probably has an inseparable relationship with him.

It's just that Song Wuya still doesn't understand a little bit now.Since Zhang Hui was able to learn about the arrival of the imperial envoy and Situ Yiyu's privately discussed Soushan plan, it can be seen that someone in the prefect of Songjiang must have tipped him off.It's just who this person is, which makes Song Wuya uncertain for a while, but this kind of thing should not be a small role, otherwise he would not be able to get in touch with this kind of information.

"Okay, then let's go straight to the bushy place on all sides." The imperial envoy ordered immediately, and the group of people headed towards the forest that Zhang Hui just mentioned.

Chapter 50 Horrible

?Chapter 50 Appalling

Everyone started to go there, which made Zhang Hui's face look uneasy.It's just that he can't stop these at the moment, unless he kills everyone here, otherwise this is a certainty.

"After everyone enters, go in groups of three, be careful and don't leave without authorization." In front of Zhang Hui's place, Situ Yi stopped and instructed the people again.

When the old man's third son heard that he was going into the mountains to find the murderer, he volunteered to lead the team with several other young men in the village.

Obviously, they have often entered here in the past and are very familiar with it.

"Since the beast wounded people, you have never entered here again?"

On the way, Song Wuya looked at the young man in front of him, and immediately asked a question.

The young man nodded, but shook his head again: "After hurting someone, she came in. My sister-in-law disappeared while working in the field, and we also thought she was taken away by that wild beast, and she came in here at that time."

"Oh? Then did you find anything?" Song Wuya continued to ask after hearing this.

He shook his head: "When we came in, it was getting late, we had just walked to a place not far ahead, and we didn't see what was going on, so we heard a rustling sound around us, which seemed to come from all directions , At the same time, many bushes were shaking constantly. Several of us panicked, thinking how much the beast had gotten, so we didn’t dare to stay, so we went back. It was the second day that the county government officials found my sister-in-law’s body. "

Song Wuya nodded and said nothing more.Hundreds of people scattered, basically doing a blanket search here.And Song Wuya was the same, following behind the young man, looking around from time to time.He knew that there might be official bankers and those killers hidden here, so he had to be extra careful in everything.

"I'm afraid there should be caves in this place! Otherwise, how would they hide?" Song Wuya immediately thought, and immediately asked the young man in front of him, "Do you have caves here?"

"Yes! It's in this mountain forest. Follow this road and go all the way in. There are several large caves at the foot of the mountain. We used to go hunting in the mountain, and we stayed there for one night when it was raining. Woolen cloth."

Hearing this, Song Wuya thought that it was right to have a cave.Those people will definitely be in the cave, and the official bank may also be hidden there.Immediately, he turned around and went down, and said to Situ Yi who was following: "Uncle, there is a cave in this mountain forest, I guess that place is the key."

"Young Master, it's a bit too reckless to do this! Most of these beasts live in that cave. If we go there rashly, we don't know how many there are. What if we are all killed?" Song Wu Ya just mentioned such a sentence, and Zhang Hui stopped him again.

After hearing this, Situ Yi rolled his eyes and immediately understood.He said with a smile: "No matter how many beasts there are, how can there be as many people as us? If one person stabs the beast, even if the beast becomes a spirit, it will still make him lie on the ground unable to move."

Seeing this, Zhang Hui hastily said to the imperial envoy at the side: "My lord, have you ever heard that this beast is very ferocious, and it comes and goes without a trace like the wind, which cannot be captured. Why don't we go back today and discuss something?" Better countermeasures, and then make some tools for catching animals, and then take it down when you are fully prepared."

These words made the face of the imperial envoy slightly changed. Obviously, this beast that came and went like a monster made the imperial envoy a little scared.

Just when he was hesitating, Song Wuya stopped Zhang Hui's words: "Master Zhang is right, but I'm afraid this beast has heard about us today. As soon as we leave, he will disappear, and he will be gone again." Go elsewhere and harm others."

"Wu Ya is right. As the parents and officials of a land, how can we put the people in the fire and water for fear of our own lives? We must eradicate this disaster today." Situ Yi immediately chimed in, absolutely not Let Zhang Hui's proposal succeed.

The imperial envoy, who was still a little hesitant, nodded immediately after hearing Situ Yi's words. After all, he couldn't lose face to the emperor in front of these subordinate officials.

Zhang Hui wanted to say something, but was stopped by the imperial envoy and said: "Master Zhang, you don't need to say any more, what Master Situ said is right, we should think more about the common people. According to my opinion, no matter how many beasts there are, they are more ferocious. How can it be against the imperial guards appointed by the emperor himself? Mr. Zhang will never think that this imperial guards can't even compare with the bastards?"

"I dare not." Zhang Hui had no choice but to bow his head and say something, wiped off the sweat on his forehead, and continued to move forward.
