The sky in Dongzhou began to change.

It was clear that the sky was clear in the morning, but in the blink of an eye, a low and gray fog curtain was covered with.

Layers of dark clouds stacked up, looking like cotton wool that had absorbed enough moisture, heavy, and it made people feel quite depressed, and it felt like a heavy rain was coming.

Guo Xianren is the newly appointed judge of Dongzhou City.

Since the last Tongzong Yu Chou Chou Chou was chopped in public by the headless general, the position of Tongzong has been vacant.

It was not until six days ago that the court appointed him to take over the post.

This is undoubtedly a great joy from the sky for him, who was originally a small figure on the margins of Dongzhou politics.

So much so that on the day of the appointment, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

Guo Xianren thought that his official fortune was coming. At the suggestion of his family this morning, he went to Wenzhu Temple in Dongming County to burn incense and pray for protection.

It was almost noon that he brought the government officials back to the city.

But just as they passed by Zhuzao Village, they suddenly heard the villagers riots.

According to the information, these villagers surrounded the Hengshui County Government and caused a disaster. Moreover, the road ahead was blocked and they could not enter the city.

When Guo Xianren heard this, he was stunned.

If it were other officials, they would have chosen to take a detour or hide first.

After all, the villagers who have lost their minds are even more terrifying than the floods. The riot in Jixi Village six years ago was the biggest case, and several officials died at that time.

But Guo Xianren did not hesitate much, but chose to go to Hengshui County.

He is a straightforward person.

This time the court gave him the position of magistrate, which was to value his ability.

If you hide at this time, you will undoubtedly let down the trust of the emperor and the empress dowager. Moreover, once mentioned by someone who is interested later, it will also affect your future career.

When Guo Xianren arrived at the Hengshui County Government, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

I saw corpses everywhere inside and outside the county yamen.

These corpses are all terrible, some are ordinary people.

The clean and tidy front hall main hall is all stained with blood. The walls, branches, and steps are splashed with blood, and there are also broken limbs and broken arms at will, making it look like a hell on earth.

And on the drum of grievances outside the county government, there was a head, which was extremely conspicuous.

After a closer look, it turned out to be the head of the magistrate of Hengshui County.

Guo Xianren had drunk wine with this person at a banquet before. Although this county magistrate was greedy for money, he was also an outstanding official and had done a lot of practical things for the people. The local people's reputation was quite good.

But now I have been cut off my head and placed brightly outside the county government, which feels quite unreal.

Guo Xianren, who had a pale face, couldn't help but vomited from the side.

"Sir, something is wrong. Let's leave here soon!"

The official next to him looked blue. When he saw a few villagers shouting from afar, he hurriedly said to Guo Xianren.

Guo Xianren's body trembled and his calves became weak.

His head was still confused.

how so?

I originally thought it was just an ordinary people protest, but now it is a complete killing and riot, like Jixi Village back then, even more serious than that back then.

It shouldn't be. The Hengshui County Government has never done anything to oppress the villagers. Why did these villagers riot for no reason?

"grown ups!"

The guards again shouted loudly.

Guo Xianren suddenly raised his head, his forehead covered with fine beads of sweat.

"Walk!"

He didn't dare to stay here, so he turned around quickly.

Just as we were about to leave, we suddenly heard the woman's cry for help. After a closer look, it turned out that the mobs were chasing a beautifully dressed girl.

And he happened to know this girl, and she was the daughter of the great master of Hengshui County.

Seeing the girl accidentally falling to the ground while running and being surrounded by the mobs chasing her, Guo Xianren gritted his teeth and stepped forward and shouted loudly to the villagers:

"I am the magistrate of the Dongzhou Prefecture. Even if you have great grievances, you should not be so atrocities, and you should not cause harm to other people's wives and daughters. You should not let go of others!"

When the mobs saw someone appear, they all turned around and stared at each other.

The atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.

Under close observation, Guo Xianren saw the faces of these mobs clearly.

A chill instantly climbed up his spine.

All of these villagers had cold faces as cold as ice, their eyes were a little dark, and they were faint and could not see any emotional rendering.

And on their foreheads, there were vague insect-shaped patterns.

The lines sometimes disappear and sometimes appear.

They stared at Guo Xianren like this, as if they were staring at a prey, which made the latter's scalp inexplicably numb.

The saved girl crawled behind Guo Xianren and the others, and cried and said, "Sir, they are crazy! They are all crazy! They killed my father, and they also killed others..."

Guo Xianren wanted to appease him, but the mobs suddenly rushed over.

"Kill the dog official!"

"Kill the dog official!"

"Dog officer dies for me!"

“…”

They roared, holding up all the sickles and hoes in their hands, their eyes full of violent murderous intent.

"Quick...quick...stop them!"

Guo Xianren stuttered and retreated in fear.

Several officials and officials had already drawn out their Pu Dao to respond to the enemy.

These mobs did not understand martial arts, but rushed forward with their ruthlessness. Before the mob was cut off in the hand of the mob in front, their arms were cut off by the sword and blood was pouring out.

But what is shocking is that the mob whose arm was cut off did not scream, and even felt pain, and still rushed towards him like a mad dog.

"This is……"

The young official who cut off his arm was completely stunned and stood there in a daze.

Before he could react, he was thrown to the ground by the mob.

The young official wanted to resist, but the mob's sharp teeth bit his neck, and bit off a piece of flesh and blood, and blood splattered out.

Amid the painful and sarcastic screams and howls, the young official twitched a few times, and then gradually disappeared.

The eyes are still incredible.

Guo Xianren was as stupid as a wooden chicken, his brain was blank.

What's going on?

How come these mobs look like real beasts without a trace of humanity?

"Sir, they seem to be possessed by evil spirits, leave quickly!"

An experienced old official finally realized something was wrong and hurriedly pulled Guo Xianren to the carriage in the distance.

The girl was also half dragged by an official to follow her.

The remaining officials struggled to resist, and one of the officials with high martial arts skills cut off the heads of several mobs, which made the tense situation easier.

But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, the mobs whose heads were cut off actually stood up again.

This scene completely broke everyone down.

"What is this...What is this...What is this..."

Guo Xianren kept muttering, looking at the headless mob, the fear in his eyes turned into dullness, and he had the illusion of having a nightmare.

It seems that everything that happened in front of me is really coming to hell.

"Sir, get on the carriage!!"

The old official's forehead was bulging with blue veins, and he shouted loudly, pushing the almost limp Guo Xianren onto the carriage.

Guo Xianren's arm was cut by a wooden board.

The brief pain made him feel a little more awake.

He suddenly saw the girl slumped on the ground and begging for help, and the official officer who was originally supporting him rushed over to resist the mob.

"Hurry...Go and save people... Hurry!"
