C36

In the Return of Spring to City, with Ran Maoxue's City Lord's Mansion as the center, it surrounded a large number of functional buildings.

Among these buildings, there was an household register that stored the citizens of the Return of Spring to City.

"Yes, Lord Head."

These past few months, they had gradually given all their work to Ceng Lecheng, while they themselves brought the official salaries and went out to spend time drinking and working. At the start, they had wanted to find an excuse, but after realizing that Ceng Lecheng was someone who would not react no matter how much he bullied him, they could not even find an excuse.

Ceng Lecheng was not angry at all. After sending them off, he went back to the archive room alone, and carefully organized the most recent files.

At this time, the sun was rising and the Return of Spring to City was getting hotter. Ceng Lecheng was alone in the archive, both cool and quiet.

However, his calm did not last for long before he was interrupted by a series of unhurried knocks on the door.

"I am Ceng Lecheng, may I ask about this lord …" Ceng Lecheng pushed open the door to take a look, and discovered that the person who stood outside was actually a youth in his early teens. He hurriedly changed his words: "… Young master, what business do you have here? "

After receiving Ceng Lecheng's greeting, Ye Zhifa also responded respectfully, then said: "In accordance to the city lord's name, in order to investigate the dangers of the ghosts, I have come here to look through some files, I hope that Master Zeng can assist me."

After inspecting the City Lord's orders that Ye Zhifa was holding, Ceng Lecheng repeatedly said "I dare not," and welcomed Ye Zhifa into the archives.

"I wonder what young master wants to ask?" Although this official has only been in office for a short period of time, I believe that I can at least give a little help. "

Seeing him cooperate, Ye Zhifa laughed and said: "I want to check on the birthdays of the several dead in the midst of the ghosts. Their lives are all on this piece of paper, I have to trouble Master Zeng to find them for me."

After he finished speaking, Ye Zhifa handed over a white piece of paper. On it were five to six names, all of them being victims of demons and ghosts.

His request was reasonable, but it was blocked by Ceng Lecheng.

"Young master, this is impossible."

"Can't do it? "Why not?"

"If these few people are still alive, their household register will naturally be placed here. However, since they have already died, this household register will be transferred to a stone room in Fengdu. These people's records are no longer here. "

Feng Du was the capital of Cold Forest Country, and the dead were not comparable to the living. If there was no dispute about their background, then the records for their information would be concentrated within Feng Du.

Ceng Lecheng spoke with sincerity, so Ye Zhifa could only trust him, and at most asked another question: "Are you sure that the information about these few people is no longer here?"

Ceng Lecheng looked again at what Ye Zhifa had told him and understood. He shook his head and said, "These names were personally sent by this official. This official confirms that their files are not here. I wonder why young master would like to investigate their birthdays, is it related to ghosts and monsters? "

Ye Zhifa let out a long sigh, and said with some regret: "Originally, there were some clues, but it has now been broken. "Then it seems that I must make a trip to Fengdu. I don't know how long it will take for me to return."

Hearing that he was going to travel a thousand miles to find out what kind of demons he was suffering from, Ceng Lecheng could not help but feel deep veneration for him. He bowed and bowed to Ye Zhifa before saying: "For the sake of the citizens of Return of Spring to City who do not know their hardships, I thank you on behalf of the citizens."

"Exempt, exonerate. It won't be too late to thank me when I find out something. "Now that you have achieved nothing and are unable to accept Lu Sheng's gratitude, I cannot accept your words of thanks."

Ye Zhifa waved his hands, completely not daring to accept Ceng Lecheng's gratitude.

Since he could not find what he wanted in the archive, Ye Zhifa could only return without any success. However, just as he was about to leave the main entrance of the archive, he suddenly turned around and asked Ceng Lecheng a question.

"Lord Zeng, do you think it will be difficult to find five or six especially delicious sheep to slaughter from among the tens of thousands of sheep?"

"This official does not understand this question. What does young lord mean?"

"It seems that I don't understand. Let me ask another question." Ceng Lecheng, from the fifty to sixty thousand documents in the archive, it should be difficult to find the people whose birthdays are considered as the best, right? "

"Of course it's not easy, or I wouldn't have taken so long to find five. Don't you think so, Bend Flower Sword Palace's Young Hero Ye? "

After Ceng Lecheng finished answering the question, his originally slightly bent back turned back to look at his. The cowardly look on his face slowly disappeared, and was replaced with an unrestrained confidence.

Indeed, he and Zhang Miaozhu had chosen to disguise themselves as cowards and cowards. But compared to Zhang Miaozhu's useless appearance, where he looked fierce, but was weak inside, Ceng Lecheng only gave him one feeling — — Danger!

The danger of a predator staring at its prey!

"Young Hero Ye, why are you so stupid as to meddle in other people's business? I have already searched through the Return of Spring to City's list of names. After that pair of twins, there is no one else worthy for me to take action against. If you don't come, I will leave as well. If you come, you will only lose your life. "

As Ceng Lecheng spoke, he even tidied his clothes. If the other officials in the Archives had seen his domineering look, they would never have believed that this was the cowardly document they were trying to bully.

"To think you still have the face to say that I wouldn't let a villain like you escape. That would truly be foolish!"

Seeing Ye Zhifa's overbearing attitude, Ceng Lecheng knew that the matter today would not end well, so he stopped using words to convince Ye Zhifa.

However, before they truly took action, Ceng Lecheng still had one more question he wanted to ask Ye Zhifa.

"Young Hero Ye, I'm rather curious. The information in the archives have already been moved away, how did you manage to deduce that it was me?"

The bad guy died from talking too much, Ye Zhifa originally did not want to explain too much to him. When he saw that Ceng Lecheng was a great enemy that Ye Zhifa had never met before, he could take this opportunity to adjust his state of mind.

"Hmph, the only difference between these twins is that they were born on a birthday, but even their neighborhood for so many years did not know about this. Only the midwife knew about this. Since I left the grocery store yesterday, I learned the names of the relatives and friends of those who died before me. "

It's just that I'm not the only one in the archive. Why would you set your eyes on me, Young Hero Ye?

"Ceng Lecheng, stop joking around. Even if those people that neglected their duties lost their usual files in the archive, they probably wouldn't even know about it. If it's not you, then who else could it be? "

Clap, clap, clap. A clear and crisp clapping sound directly rang out in the archive.

As Ceng Lecheng clapped, he praised, "Amazing, amazing. You are so young, yet you have such thoughts. This analysis, Bend Flower Sword Palace has truly accepted a good disciple."

"It's just that this good disciple is going to die here today!"
