There are about a dozen villages around "Qingniu Town", such as "Niujia Village", "Panzhuang" and "Gaowu Village", and "Gujiazhuang" are also one of them. These villages are all under the jurisdiction of "Qingniu Town".

In each village, the clans of their own surnames generally choose and decide on management personnel. For example, Gu Yimu, the owner of the "Gujiazhuang", was elected by the villagers. The official will basically not interfere in the affairs of these villages.

But it is different when you reach the town level. Generally, there are personnel sent by the state to serve as mayors to manage the entire town. For example, the mayor of "Qingniu Town" is sent by the superiors.

However, in "Qingniu Town", the ones who really have the right to speak are the local local forces. Even the mayor of "Qingniu Town" have to give them face.

It can be said that they are the real rulers of this "Qingniu Town". As for the mayor, it is just an official decoration.

The government is far from reaching these remote towns. As long as it is not involved in the fundamental major events such as rebellion and rebellion, the government will not be willing to pay more attention to other matters as long as the rated tax collection is raised every year.

"Gujiazhuang" has become a scorched earth ruin. Except for the fifty corpses found, all the others disappeared. Gu Fan and others could not find clues here, so they decided to go to "Qingniu Town" to inquire about the news.

"Gujiazhuang" has a population of nearly 1,000, and it is not a small village. Such a big thing happened here, and "Qingniu Town" cannot be ignorant of anything.

"Gujiazhuang" is next to the edge of the "Julu Mountains". "Qingniu Town" is located in the northeast of "Gujiazhuang". The journey is about fifty miles. Although Gufan is small, he has been to the market team in the village once. That time he went to "Qingniu Town" to sell various leathers and animal furs.

Since they decided to go to "Qingniu Town", Gu Fan and the other four immediately set off. In order to speed up, Huo Wu carried Gu Fan on his back, Huo Xuan carried Bai Ziling, unfolded his body skills, and accelerated to run away.

Although Gu Fan has reached the realm of "first-level ancestors", he is a child after all, with short hands and short legs. How could he compare to the two "first-level ancestors" Huo Xuan and Huo Wu.

They launched the "Surf Bird Step", and the "Surf Bird Ancestor's Power" in their bodies surged, and the wind was coming from their feet, like two arrows flying away.

Gu Fan leaned on Huo Wu's back, feeling the "whirring" sound of the gust of wind in his ears, and was worried.

It took more than fifty miles to reach "Qingniu Town" in less than half an hour, with Gu Fan and Bai Ziling.

The scale of "Qingniu Town" is much larger than that of "Gujiazhuang". Rows of red brick and green tiled houses are filled with people, and various hawking sounds. The ox, horses and carriages are flowing endlessly, and people come and go.

Before entering the town, Huoxuan and Huowu had already taken out two sets of ordinary coarse cloth clothes from the package they carried with them and replaced them, covering up the red clothes they were wearing to avoid attracting attention. However, even so, Huoxuan's beauty still attracted the attention of many people.

The Qing brick road in the town can allow four carriages to run in parallel. There are many stalls on both sides, including various pastries, small accessories or common objects. Bai Ziling saw such a lively scene for the first time and was full of excitement.

Gu Fan was in a irritable mood and had no intention of enjoying this lively scene. Huo Xuan was not unfamiliar with this place. In the past, she had disguised herself and visited several times. This time she took Huo Wu and Gu Fan into a tavern. The tavern was called "Home Inn" and was quite famous in this "Qingniu Town".

The tavern was filled with people, and there were noise everywhere.

A young waiter came up with a smile on his face. Huo Xuan took out a round silver coin and whispered: "Inquiry about some information from you. If we are satisfied, this silver coin will be yours."

A hint of surprise flashed in the young waiter's eyes and nodded.

In this world, the coins circulating are divided into gold coins, silver coins, bronze coins and black iron coins. The outer circle is round and square inside. The anti-rate rate is one to one hundred. A silver coin can be exchanged for one hundred bronze coins and ten thousand black iron coins. It is quite valuable in this world, almost equivalent to the waiter's salary for a month.

This kind of tavern is full of people, and everyone has all kinds of people. If you drink some wine, you will tell me any news and chat. So you can hear all kinds of rumors when working as a waiter here. Huoxuan asked the waiter about "Gujiazhuang" and found the right person.

When Huo Xuan was asking about the news about "Gujiazhuang", the waiter breathed a sigh of relief. For a while, the incident in "Gujiazhuang" was a major news about "Qingniu Town". People talked about it almost every day in the tavern. He heard his ears calluses, so how could he not know?

"That happened a few months ago. A big fire broke out in 'Gujiazhuang'. Overnight, all the Haohaozhuang villages were burned to pieces. I heard that many people were burned to death. After the fire, the people from 'Gujiazhuang' mysteriously disappeared. This incident once caused a sensation in the 'Qingniu Town' area."

Huo Xuan frowned slightly and said, "That's all? There are nearly a thousand people in Gujiazhuang, and now they don't know their whereabouts? They are all mysteriously missing?" Obviously, they are quite dissatisfied.

The waiter was a little nervous, staring at the silver coins in Huoxuan's hand and whispered: "I don't know where the people in 'Gujiazhuang' are now, and even the entire 'Qingniu Town' will not know, but... I know another rumor, but I can't be sure whether it is true or not."

Huo Xuan nodded and said, "Tell me, let me see."

The waiter whispered: "I heard that on the night when the fire broke out in Gujiazhuang, someone saw people wearing golden clothes moving around the area. Some people suspected that the fire in Gujiazhuang and so many people disappeared were related to these people wearing golden clothes."

Huo Xuan's heart was shaking. When Gu Fan heard this, his face changed drastically. In an instant, he thought that when he first met Huo Xuan that day, four people in golden clothes were chasing Huo Xuan.

"Golden clothes? Is there anything embroidered on my chest?" Huo Xuan's face also changed.

The server members were stunned, then thought for a while and said, "Yes... it seems that there is embroidered... embroidered white bones... By the way, it is a skull, embroidered with a skull." After saying that, he looked at the silver coins in Huo Xuan's hand.

Huo Xuan took a deep breath and said, "Is there any other news about Gujiazhuang?"

The waiter shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's really gone. I heard this last one by myself by accident. If you ask ordinary people, you will definitely not know."

"Okay, thank you." Huo Xuan stuffed the silver coin to him and walked out of the noisy tavern.

After leaving the tavern, Gu Fan couldn't help it and said, "Sister Huo, those gold..."

Huo Xuan shook his head at him and whispered: "Let's talk about it later, let's leave here first." His face was unprecedentedly serious and heavy.

Gu Fan's heart was terrified and he didn't say anything. The group of four people did not stop in "Qingniu Town" and soon left here again.

The waiter in the "table" took a silver coin from Huo Xuan, looked happy and turned around and entered the tavern.

"Boss, boss, you asked us to pay attention to it at that time. If anyone inquired about 'Gujiazhuang' and 'Golden Man', I would like to inform you. I just met a few people."

The owner of the "table" was a middle-aged man with a hooked nose. When he heard this, his face changed slightly and he immediately stood up: "What? I'll let someone stare at them immediately. I'll inform Mr. Cao to know."

After Huoxuan asked about the news about "Gujiazhuang", he did not stop and left "Qingniu Town".

After leaving the town, Huo Xuan and Huo Wu's faces became heavier.

Huo Wu clamped his hands together, picked up Gu Fan and Bai Ziling at the same time, followed Huo Xuan and ran away.

Just as he ran out less than a hundred meters, Huo Xuan suddenly let out a low roar, his arms spreading his wings, and he turned around with a whistle. The long sword in his hand had already escaped and turned into a meteor flame.
