Dongzhou.
It was already night, and in addition to the sound of waves, there were some strange sounds on the entire beach.
Nights at the beach are never peaceful.
The waves are not stopping, and the creatures in the sea are restless.
A huge sea turtle climbed up from the shore and was slowly crawling towards the shore.
Dongzhou does not have a certain buffer beach area like Huizhou.
The entire Dongzhou coastline is not only winding and winding, but also has some deep water areas, which are never a good place to land.
It was very difficult for this turtle to crawl all the way.
Sudden.
A hand was placed on the turtle, and then a dagger was stabbed into the turtle shell from the front.
The turtle flopped and struggled on the spot for a few times, then slowly stopped moving.
At this time, a group of men in black came out from behind a reef behind the turtle.
They were all wet, but each of them had a cold dagger in their hand.
Walking quietly towards the shore.
…
Dongzhou.
State pastoral office.
"Master Zhou Mu, so far, this is the fourth county magistrate to be killed."
"But still no clues at all."
"But for now, the counties where accidents occurred are relatively close to the seaside."
"Could it be that the Japanese did it?"
A person said to Dongzhou Zhou Mu Fangfu.
"Nine times out of ten that's the case."
"Otherwise, I really can't think of anyone who could attack us in such a big way."
"But I can't figure out how these Japanese came to our Dongzhou?"
"We have quite a few sentry posts along the coast. Once they come, we will know immediately."
"And even if they come ashore, how do they succeed in the county government?"
"Not to mention these Japanese people, even people in Daxia can't easily break into the county government, can they still escape unscathed? So far we have no clues at all. This seems a bit strange."
Fang Fu frowned and said.
"Sir, is it possible that someone from Daxia did it? Could it be that our remaining enemies want to attack us?"
"It's very possible that you've been holding back for so long, and now you're waiting for us to let down our guard, so that you can attack us?"
A staff member asked Fang Fu.
Whether they are in Dongzhou or Cao Kang's side before, they all have many enemies.
Although Zhang Bao took down Daxia, the whole process was simple and rough, and the time was relatively short. It was definitely impossible to appease everything perfectly.
Just like their Dongzhou, although Zhang Bao fought from north to south and captured the entire Dongzhou at that time, for Dongzhou now, many people rose up to look for trouble in this process.
So when Fang Fu first took office in Dongzhou, he was still very busy.
In addition to normal government affairs, he also had to go around suppressing rebellions in various places.
"No, it probably won't happen. The county magistrates in Nanping and Sishui counties are not the people we brought from Hezhou. They are also the county magistrates left over from Dongzhou at that time."
"And they have been here in Dongzhou for a long time. They were affiliated with Dongzhou Zhoumu or Cao Kang at that time, but overall they did not participate in too many factional disputes."
"That's why this time is strange."
"No matter what, let's step up our guard for the time being."
"Let the government officials everywhere pay more attention to strangers. Once they find anyone suspicious, they can take them down first."
Fang Fu shook his head and said to everyone.
at this time.
In a village on the coast of Dongzhou.
Although this village does not have a lot of land, there are many fruit trees on the nearby mountains.
The rich Wang family in this village relied on these fruit trees to make their fortune.
Not only Wang Fuhu, many people in this village survive by planting fruit trees.
It is said that one depends on the mountains to eat the mountains and the other to eat the water. The land here is not suitable for growing food, but the fruit trees on the mountains do grow well.
Gradually, through annexation, the entire hilltop near the village was taken down.
Wang Fuhu's method is quite simple.
First of all, it was low-price and high-volume production, which killed all the fruit farmers in less than a month.
A large number of fruit growers had no place to sell their harvested fruits, so they had to rot in their hands. In the end, they could no longer survive, so they had to sell their gardens at a low price and then work for Wang Fu's family.
Gradually, Wang Fuhu became a well-known wealthy businessman.
At this time, he was in Wang Fuhu's home.
Wang Fuhu was surrounded by several enchanting women. They danced a novel dance and sewed some strange clothes out of silk, which were different from the clothes in Daxia.
Although it looks heavy on the outside, there is actually nothing on the inside.
Especially when you get excited about playing, you can start it immediately without delaying anything.
It was completely unlike the clothes on the women here in Daxia, which were untied layer by layer, which made Wang Fuhu very happy.
a few days ago.
When Wang Fuhu was passing by in a carriage, he met several women who had been robbed by bandits, and took them to his home.
Unexpectedly, these women are completely different from their Daxia women. Not only are they beautiful, but they are also quite capable in that area.
That night, Wang Fuhu's eyes were opened.
From then on, these people were retained by Wang Fuhu.
Although Wang Fuhu didn't know where they came from or what their identities were, these were not important.
These women have only been here for a few days, and Wang Fuhu has already lost seven or eight pounds, and even walks a little light.
"Mr. Wang, your health is not serious, it's just... ahem, I'll give you some medicine, Mister Wang. After you take it, you can sleep for a few days and you'll be fine."
An old doctor said to Mr. Wang.
Mr. Wang has been feeling a loss of appetite recently and has no energy to do anything. He even feels a little powerless even at night these days.
I went to the hut today, but I didn't get up for a long time. My legs were shaking all the time. I had no choice but to ask an old doctor to come and take a look.
"Sleep by yourself?"
"No, no, no, even if I come out of the inner courtyard, those girls in the backyard can't let me go."
"Besides, I have already agreed tonight that we will come together. This won't work. Doctor, please take a look and think of other ways."
Mr. Wang shook his head quickly and said.
Recently, I have nothing to do during the day, but I have a full schedule at night.
In fact, I should take time to sleep during the day, but I can't fall asleep during the day.
"Then...in this case, there is nothing I can do."
"Then I will prescribe some more tonics for Mr. Wang."
The old doctor shook his head helplessly.
This kind of disease is so common among these gentlemen. Almost all gentlemen from all over the country have this problem, but this time Mr. Wang seems to be particularly serious.
"master!"
"The master is not good!"
"When I went to the inner courtyard early this morning, I found that there was no one inside. All the people inside had disappeared. Even the clothes and other things from before were gone. There were only some ashes."
At this moment, a person hurriedly ran in.
"What?!"
"What did you say?"
"My beauty ran away?"
When Mr. Wang heard this, his vision went dark and he fell down from his chair.
