On the second day, after breakfast, Pei Mengqing began to analyze the current situation.
The positions of the five formations have been determined. The guy at the Gate of Nothingness is not trustworthy and is not necessary. Pei Mengqing and the others do not intend to crush the jar to summon each other.
Chief arrester Wang Yuanbai is still trapped in the Yamen, supporting the county's operations.
The detour to Sili will take about 150 miles. If nothing unexpected happens these days, Zhang Baicheng should go to Luoyang and start thinking of ways to contact Xu Jin, the powerful general.
I don't know when the reinforcements will arrive, and the few of them are unable to become stronger quickly for the time being. They dare not directly destroy the formation, and there is really not much they can do.
Between the two of them and the two cats, there has always been a feeling that they seem to be trying their best, but when I think about it again, I feel that I and others are just dying slowly and have not done anything practical and effective at all.
So when Pei Mengqing proposed rescuing Dongfang Mingfu and Zhang Guangyi, Dongfang Xiaoyu and the two big oranges agreed with both hands and feet.
"Xiao Ri, Ju Ju, can the golden light of you two dispel the evil spirits in Uncle Dongfang and the County Magistrate's bodies and release their control?"
Being able to dispel evil spirits and release control is the key. Pei Mengqing has no such ability, only the ability to cut and stab people with a sword. As for Dongfang Xiaoyu, he basically only has the ability to fight on the edge and exploit every opportunity.
"There is no problem, as long as you are not trained into a zombie like the Mr. Jia you mentioned. However, the less intelligence you have left, the longer it will take to dispel evil spirits and contact control. Ju Ju and I If one person rescues one, you and Miss Xiaoyu will have to block the other controlled yamen soldiers. If we are not completely relieved before the reinforcements from Tianmeng Pavilion, then we have to consider escaping quickly and giving up the rescue."
After Xiaori and Ju Ju came back, they exchanged information, and based on the zombies refined by Tianmeng Pavilion and the strange mutant animals on Fengzhang Road and Yuanshan Road, they initially concluded that Tianmeng Pavilion did not have as many manpower as they thought. .
At least the basic formations were not guarded by anyone, and it was not known whether it was because there was a shortage of manpower in the first place, or because the Dark Night Chaos disrupted the situation after entering Liangzhou City and dispersed the manpower.
All in all, it's good news for them.
"Well, during the process of eliminating evil spirits and contact control, can you speed up the process by asking Miss Xiaoyu to read the good memories of the past to Uncle Dongfang?"
According to Pei Mengqing's experience, this kind of talk about recalling killings is very useful when facing relatives and friends who are controlled by the enemy.
There are often characters who have a cold face and are controlled by the enemy. After encountering the main character, they are controlled without saying a word. The main character bursts into tears and cannot bear to draw a sword.
Then in the fight of one attack and one defense, the main characters started to talk and play memory cards. In the end, the character who was controlled also burst into tears, temporarily regained consciousness, briefly got rid of the control, and counterattacked the enemy...
"Um... Theoretically, it's not possible. If Miss Xiaoyu really has nothing to do, we can let her try..."
Xiaori turned around, "sat" on the bed, raised her hind paws and scratched her ears, then turned back and denied Pei Mengqing's statement.
"Pity……"
"Brother Xiaori, last time you went to the Yamen, besides a few major county officials, how many ordinary civil servants and soldiers were there?"
"About twenty or so. Their strength is between entry-level and ordinary people. There is no threat."
Pei Mengqing nodded. In this case, the main opponents should be the target characters Dongfang Mingfu and Zhang Guangyi, as well as the two county magistrates and county captains who don't know what the situation is.
The actual problem is how to quickly deal with the opponent, subdue them without harming Dongfang Mingfu and Zhang Guangyi as much as possible, and let Xiaori and Juju defeat them before the support from Tianmeng Pavilion arrives. People's reason is awakened and evil spirits are dispelled.
So, the two of them went out again. First, they went to Zhang Baicheng's nephew Zhang Ning to see the effect of seaweed and egg drop soup. After seeing that there was no problem, they went straight to the county government office.
There was silence at the gate of the county government office.
No one beats the drum, no one avenges justice.
Two expressionless county guards stood at the door of the government office, staring blankly at the street.
There are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street. Only at the unemployment relief station, people are still looking for new jobs. Even if they can only do part-time work for a day or two, they can temporarily support their families.
It’s just that there are fewer and fewer jobs available, and more and more people are crowding around the unemployment assistance stations. From morning to night every day, there seems to be no shortage.
Like when Pei Mengqing got the opportunity to explore the Lianggu Road, although it was very dangerous and ordinary people would die if they went there, if it were today, I'm afraid there would be many people risking their lives to make money.
Food is in short supply and prices remain high, and there are fewer and fewer profitable jobs.
There is no one in charge of the county government office, the catchers are short of manpower, the pawnshop business is booming, the streets are getting quieter and quieter, and there is no more bustle in the past...
Ordinary people have begun to realize that the situation in the county is not right, and are preparing to leave Liangzhou County with their families and take refuge in nearby Xiangyang.
It's just that my hometown complex is causing trouble. I really can't bear to leave my hometown where I have lived for decades.
In Liangzhou County, they still have a home, but if they leave Liangzhou County, they are nothing. They may only be able to live in a wooden shed at the base of the Xiangcheng city wall.
"Go, be careful."
Pei Mengqing climbed over the courtyard wall first and arrived first at the courtyard where the county magistrate Zhang Guangyi worked. Following him was Ju Ju, his old partner.
Dongfang Xiaoyu split up with him and followed the experienced Xiaori to the courtyard where Dongfang Mingfu was.
Divide into two teams and perform tasks at the same time.
There was no one in the courtyard, and Pei Mengqing's footsteps landed lightly, while Ju Ju was walking like a real cat, making no sound at all.
One person and one cat approached the door, confirmed that Zhang Guangyi was in the room, pushed the door open, and closed the door behind him, intending to resolve the matter in the room.
Zhang Guangyi himself was sitting behind the desk, lowering his head and closing his eyes, as if in deep thought.
After hearing the movement of a person and a cat, he slowly raised his head, revealing a haggard face:
"You two broke into the important place of our county government. What do you want?"
Pei Mengqing and Ju Ju surrounded him on the left and right, blocking him inside the table and wall.
Pei Mengqing took the Qingshuang Sword out of its scabbard and said calmly:
"Of course it's to rescue the county magistrate."
He cursed secretly in his heart, and immediately launched his sword, slashing "Zhang Guangyi's" arm.
"Zhang Guangyi" raised his hand and waved away the invisible attack. Juju jumped up and turned into a tiger and pushed "Zhang Guangyi" to the ground.
Pei Mengqing chopped off "Zhang Guangyi's" head with one sword.
"Zhang Guangyi" disappeared into a line of smoke. Pei Mengqing raised her sword and pointed at a shadow in the corner of the room:
"Whether you are Master Zhang or Xie Sui, I think there is no need to hide anymore, right?"
