In Yishui City, a rapid sound of horse hooves broke the tranquility of the morning.

Someone rode his horse on the main road and headed straight to the city lord's mansion.

Then someone from the city lord's mansion asked Qin Wen to discuss matters.

"I wonder what the city lord is urgently summoned?" Qin Wen asked. Now Qin Xiang's two families are in a confrontation, and the blood moon appears again. It is a turbulent time, so he has to be cautious.

"I just reported to the head of Qin that the patrol guards had just reported that a village fifteen miles west of the city suffered an unknown attack last night, and his death was miserable and he had not survived. The city lord sent us to invite Qin to talk to the two families to discuss matters, and asked the head of Qin to go quickly." The guards of the city lord's mansion said.

Qin Wen's face changed slightly. This is a big deal. There are at least a hundred people in a village, but they were slaughtered by people. It's such a tragic thing, no wonder Xiahou An was so anxious.

So Qin Wen bowed to the guards and said, "Please tell the city lord, I will set off for the city lord's mansion immediately."

After the guard left, Zhantai Wangshu said worriedly: "Will there be a fraud? Could it be the Hongmen Banquet held by Xiang Nan and the City Lord's Mansion?"

Qin Wen shook his head: "It's not like. Xiahou An wouldn't deceive me with such things. Besides, the blood moon was in the sky last night, and I was always a little restless, and I had a premonition that something was going to happen."

The divine cultivator can communicate with the world through the sea of ​​consciousness and mind, and is often more sensitive to the changes in the energy of heaven and earth. If his cultivation is as strong as the national teacher Li Daoxuan, he can also divine and make divination and know the future. Although Qin Wen's cultivation is far less than that of Li Daoxuan, he is a divine cultivator after all, and he has some vague responses to the changes in the energy of heaven and earth...

"Then be careful, should you use some breakfast first?" Zhantai Wangshu put on her husband's coat and tied her belt.

Qin Wen shook his head: "No need, you should watch Chuan'er well at home. Now it's a turbulent time, try to go out as little as possible."

When Qin Wen came to the city lord's mansion, Xiang Nan was just here. The two of them looked at each other without saying hello, and at the same time entered the city lord's mansion.

The conflict between Qin Xiang and the two families is not so easy to resolve.

"There is an emergency, so I am eager to recruit two virtuous brothers to come." Xiahou An asked with a frown. "Last night, Blood Moon appeared, and today I heard about the village slaughter. What do you think?"

This matter is different from the dispute between Qin Xiang and the two families, but is related to his personal interests. The slaughtered village belongs to his rule. It is so tragic that it is not in wartime, which is enough to shock the court. If it is not handled well, he will be blamed.

"Don't worry about the blood moon's appearance. That's not just our Yishui City family, it's something that the Imperial Heaven Supervision should worry about." Xiang Nan said: "As for the slaughter of the village in the west of the city, is it a robbery of the horse thieves to vent their anger, or is it done by Chilan State?"

Yishui City is located in the southwest of Dongling Kingdom, only a hundred miles away from the border Dongsheng Mountains. To the west of Dongsheng Mountains is the neighboring country Chilan Kingdom.

Xiahou An slowly shook his head and said, "I have sent troops to clean up the surrounding horse thieves regularly, and occasionally there are fish that miss the net, so it is not a good idea. They have no strength and no courage to rob and kill a village. Moreover, there are two outposts around the village that were attacked this time. Patrol soldiers are stationed in the outposts, which are definitely not something that a small team of horse thieves can eat."

"As for Chilan, it is even more impossible. Although Chilan is warlike and has frequent frictions with our country, they are now fighting with Tianhuang, so it is impossible for them to provoke us at this time. Even if Chilan has troops infiltrated, what is the benefit of slaughtering one or two villages?"

Xiahou An's words were reasonable and evidence-based, and immediately overturned Xiang Nan's guesses, so he looked at Qin Wen.

"I don't agree with Xiang Nan's opinion. Perhaps these two things should be viewed together." Qin Wen said: "It was a coincidence that such a tragedy occurred last night when the Blood Moon appeared. And last night, I felt a vague feeling of uneasiness."

Xiang Nan mocked, "Don't you say that if the blood moon appears in the world and the monsters are full of monsters, can it be that monsters appear and eat the people in that village?"

Xiahou An looked at Xiang Nan with a strange look and said, "Actually... according to the patrol soldiers, the people in the village were strange in death, with no corpse in them, and the whole village was like a Shura field... If there were really monsters, it would make sense."

Xiang Nan was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

"In any case, this matter must be taken seriously." Qin Wen said: "The city lord may as well send troops to patrol the suburbs to see if there is any abnormality. Then send a team of people to the scene of the accident to investigate the details. In addition, officials can be sent to the villages and towns under his jurisdiction, and try to persuade them to move away and move closer to Yishui City to prevent the tragedy from happening again."

Xiahou An nodded slightly: "My brother Qin's words are exactly what I think. But the first two are easy to say, but it is probably difficult to get everyone to move out of their former residence, and no one is willing to leave. Besides, even if they are willing to move away, there will be so many people in the city."

"Eat the king's fortune and be loyal to the king. Our Qin Mansion is willing to invest in building temporary sheds outside the city, open warehouses and release grain every day, and send people to provide porridge to calm people's hearts." Qin Wen said.

Xiahou An was very happy when he heard this: "My brother Qin is indeed kind-hearted. If this matter can be resolved successfully, I will report to Your Majesty to express my merits to the Qin Mansion."

Xiang Nan snorted coldly: "I can do it as well as the Xiang family. How much does the Qin Mansion cost? My Xiang Mansion is no less than the Qin Mansion."

"Haha, that's the best." Xiahou An became happier: "This incident happened suddenly. I hope that the two families of Qin Xiang can work together with the city lord. How about letting go of some of the previous small frictions and grudges?"

Qin Wen had no objection. Anyway, the Qin Mansion did not suffer any major losses this time. It was simply because the Xiang family robbed the control of a street.

On the contrary, Xiang Mansion suffered a lot of slaughter. Not only did he fail to get the Heavenly Dao Order from the Qin Mansion, but he instead compensated Xiang Wei with one hand and died in Xiang Meng's mysterious realm of cultivation.

Sure enough, after hearing Xiahou An's words, Xiang Nan's expression was unstable and he didn't know what he was thinking.

When Qin Wen Xiangnan was discussing affairs in the city lord's mansion, the Qin Mansion, which had just had breakfast, welcomed an uninvited guest, a young man in white clothes and fan.

When the gatekeeper of Qin Mansion saw someone coming, he wanted to come up to ask about the origin, whether there were any visits or not.

But when the doorman was about to take a step, an invisible force suddenly bound him. He was shocked to find that he could not move his feet and could not speak, and watched the man walk into the Qin Mansion.

The last time someone broke into the mansion like this was Xiang Wei, but Xiang Wei ordered people to put the knife on his neck and walked in. Today, this man was alone and could not move without seeing any movement.

When he walked into the Qin Mansion, the young man in white looked at the front yard of the Qin Mansion and walked to a place to stand. A few days ago, there was also a person standing at this position, Xiang Wei.

"Xiang Huang, Tiandao Sect, came to pay homage to the mansion." The young master in white clothes and fanned himself and reported to his house.
