Chapter 15 Rat Demon Invasion
The darkness of the night, thick darkness enveloped the whole world. In this darkness where you can’t see your fingers, few people are walking outside.
Suddenly, a fire light rose from a certain place. In the fire light, there were countless people screaming shrillly, and dozens of black shadows were running back and forth. Every time they ran, they would splash blood.
Such a surging fire in the dark night is clearly visible no matter how far or near it.
Half an hour later, two figures came from far away and arrived at the fire.
These were two tall middle-aged men. Their star power surged, exuding an extremely powerful and fierce aura. However, when they saw the miserable scene in the fire, they couldn't help but change their horror.
Gradually, more and more people rushed here, either joining forces to put out the fire or searching for survivors. However, the news they received gradually made their hearts cool down.
"Monster beast, this is definitely the work of monsters."
"Yes, the traces left on the scene are all rat monsters."
"But, aren't the monsters all moving near the Abyss Island? Why did they suddenly run to Mingcong Island?"
"This matter cannot be delayed, we must report it to the city lord immediately."
"But, I heard that the city lord will leave tomorrow, what should I do?"
"Hey, I can't care so much, let's report it first."
Although the fire at the scene was effectively controlled, looking at the messy fire, everyone could not calm down no matter what. They vaguely felt that something big was about to happen on Mingcong Island.
※※※※
The next morning, when the sky was still dark, the harbor was already full of people.
If anyone who knows the reality of Mingcong Island clearly sees the people above, they will be so scared that their legs tremble and their speech is incoherent.
Because all the people who occupy high positions on the island have arrived here, their faces are quiet, as if they are waiting for something.
A moment later, a luxurious carriage slowly came and stopped on the dock.
Fu Minghua slowly walked off the carriage with the help of Ziyuan. She was very demeanor and when she walked slowly, she felt a gorgeous and solemn smell that was not desecrated.
All those who touched her eyes could not help but pass away their eyes in a filthy way, as if they didn't even have the courage to look at her.
Fu Minghuan had a faint smile on his face and said, "Everyone, this city lord has been having a very happy life on Mingcong Island for several years. I would like to thank you for your cooperation."
The four middle-aged men stepped forward together. They were the chiefs of the four major families who held the greatest authority on Mingcong Island.
He bowed deeply to Fu Minghuan and went out one by one. It was Xu Daozu, the head of the Xu family. He said with regret: "Master Lord, under your far-sighted leadership, Mingcong Island has been favored by God for several years and has been stable and has nothing to do. Alas, now that your term of office has expired and you are about to leave, we really can't bear to leave."
Fu Minghua said with a smile: "Is that right? Then do I want me to stay?"
Xu Daozu was stunned and complained secretly, but his face was still filled with joy, saying, "If the city lord can stay, it will naturally be a great blessing for us, right? Dear patriarchs."
"good."
“That’s right.”
"Brother Xu said it well."
The three heads of the family in the rear all cursed in their hearts, "You damn Xu Daozu, if this guy really stays, we must settle the score with you."
But no matter how they thought about it, their faces were filled with joy.
Fu Minghuan snorted lightly and said, "Forget it, this city lord cannot delay here for a lifetime. Since the time is up, he will naturally leave." She paused and said, "It's getting late, you can get out of here."
Xu Daozu dared not try to keep him again this time. If something really happened and the big man stayed on a whim, they would really say that Tiantian should not be effective.
Fu Minghuang held Yu Ziyuan's hand and boarded the huge sea boat that was staying at the port with respectful eyes.
The size of this sea boat is like a small hill, and what is even more shocking are the armored guards walking on the boat. These people have bright eyes, their star power surges, and they exudes an extremely fierce atmosphere. When the three of them gather together casually, the powerful aura comes to their faces, making it difficult for them to breathe.
As these guards stared at each other, all the senior officials on Mingcong Island felt awe-inspiring, and they didn't even dare to breathe their anger.
After Fu Minghua boarded the ship, the huge sea ship finally slowly started.
Although it is extremely large, once it is activated, its speed is unparalleled, just like an invisible force pushing behind it. In just a moment, it disappeared from the horizon's sight.
Everyone looked at each other and all breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, I sent this big shot away. I hope the next city lord will no longer be such a terrifying guy.
Although such a person sitting on Mingcong Island will bring a lot of convenience to the island, with such a Supreme Emperor pressing on his head, they can no longer do it freely.
Only those who are in high positions can only know the gains and losses. However, for those who are in high positions, they would rather not benefit the various benefits that can benefit the civilians on the island than press a large Buddha on their heads that is inactive.
Suddenly, a rapid sound of horse hooves sounded in the distance, breaking the tranquility here.
Everyone turned their heads in dissatisfaction and saw a horse galloping from afar. The horse was already sweating profusely. It was obvious that he had tried his best and even the last little spare force was almost exhausted.
Since there are so many big figures on the dock, they are naturally full of guards. Soon, the knight was stopped and was taken to the four patriarchs as quickly as possible.
It was a man with a frosty face, looking quite haggard due to excessive fatigue. After seeing the four clan leaders, he immediately turned over and bowed, saying, "Four masters, the villain is Lin Dabiao, the soldiers stationed in Repulse Bay." He took a breath and said, "Last night, a mansion in Repulse Bay area was slaughtered, and the thief set fire to the house and destroyed the corpses."
"What?"
The four clan leaders all frowned. Although Mingcong Island is known as an island, the area on the island is definitely not small.
The Repulse Bay is very far away from here, and it is considered to be a conscientious person who can arrive overnight.
However, more than a hundred family massacres were extremely rare on Mingcong Island. What's more, such a thing happened just now when Fu Minghun left, which made them even more unhappy.
With a cold snorting, Xu Daozu said, "Can you find out who did it? If you are a high-level star lay Buddhist, you can ask for help from the City of Dawn."
It is definitely the work of the high-level star lay Buddhists who can kill more than a hundred people in one go and set fire openly at night. Although there are strong people among the troops stationed, they may not be able to encircle and suppress these high-level star lay Buddhists.
However, Lin Dabiao was hesitant and looked embarrassed.
Yue Boxing, the leader of the Yue family, frowned slightly and said, "What else do you have to say? Just say it."
Lin Dabiao gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, sirs, according to the observation of the little people, the traces left at the scene were not humans, but rat monsters."
"What?"
Several screams started to scream almost at the same time.
The four patriarchs looked at each other, and each of them had a serious look.
At first, when they heard about this, they were a little dissatisfied. Although they secretly hated a high-level star conscience to kill people so unscrupulously, it was just a matter within the human race. However, now that this matter actually involves monsters, the situation is completely different.
Lin Zhenyu, the head of the Lin family, said in a deep voice: "How far is the destroyed mansion from the coastline?"
"It's fifty miles deep." Lin Dabiao also did his homework and answered without hesitation.
The faces of the four patriarchs became increasingly ugly. They actually allowed the monsters to penetrate fifty miles into the coastline. This was simply blasphemy and dereliction of duty.
Mao Senmi thought about it, and he waved his hand, and naturally someone took Lin Dabiao down.
Suddenly, there were only four clan leaders left here, and the others were driven away and not allowed to eavesdrop.
"Dear patriarchs, the rat demon actually landed on the island to kill people. This is a big deal." Mao Senmi said slowly: "If such a big deal, we should notify the city lord and let her make a decision."
The remaining three people looked at each other and cursed in their hearts.
After finally sending Fu Minghua away, what if she reported the matter to her, what would she do if she returned on a whim?
It is easy to ask God to send God but difficult to send God. No one wants to put a Bodhisattva on his head and press it tightly, even they are no exception.
With a light cough, Mao Senmi said, "Dear patriarchs, since we all don't want to see her come back, what should we temporarily suppress the battle report?"
Lin Zhenyu hesitated for a moment and said, "It's a violation of regulations to do this."
Mao Senmi smiled and said, "As long as we can resolve this matter as soon as possible, we will naturally not be considered a violation."
Xu Daozu pondered for a moment and said, "This is also a way to adapt, what does Brother Yue say?"
Yue Boxing smiled slightly and said, "I would like to follow Brother Xu's head."
Xu Daozu looked over one by one, and everyone nodded slowly. Since he was the head of the Xu family, he was naturally a decisive and decisive person.
With a flash of eyes, he said, "Since that's the case, then gather a hundred middle and high-level star lay Buddhists, let them join the army temporarily, and go to Repulse Bay... to train troops."
Although the invasion of monsters is a big deal. However, those monsters clearly have a weak strength, otherwise they would not have gone deeper than fifty miles without anyone knowing it. In this case, as long as these monsters are killed or expelled from the country, it is equivalent to quitting the matter.
Everyone nodded, this was undoubtedly the safest way to deal with it.
Mao Senmi smiled slightly and said, "Everyone, I have another suggestion."
Everyone turned their heads and heard Mao Senmi say slowly: "I suggest that all families must send the Shenren Layman to the battle with the team." He said righteously: "Only the Shenren Layman can find the traces of the monster as soon as possible. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible, and it must not be delayed."
Xu Daozu thought for a moment, nodded gently, and said, "Well, our families will send at least ten more than ten Shenen lay Buddhists to go to war with the army. As for the rest, there will be as many as possible, so there will be no delays."
Everyone responded to the promise one after another, and a faint, heart-pounding cold light flashed in Mao Senmi's eyes.
