Chapter 2353: Believing and Doubting
Despite what Zhou Ming said, none of the people of Shenlong County dared to come forward to speak, if this county magistrate was disposed of, it would be fine, but if he was still in good health, the people who came forward to speak certainly did not have a good ending, Zhou Ming swept around, all the townspeople were retreating, looking at that county magistrate's eyes were a bit fearful.
Just when Zhou Ming did not know what to do, Zhang Laohan suddenly stood out and knelt in front of Zhou Ming and Wu Feng, saying: ''Your Excellency, since everyone does not dare to speak, then the old man will say it, they are going to drown the old man's daughter in the Shenlong Lake, and the old man doesn't want to live anyway……. In fact, what the county magistrate Just said it is right, our Shenlong County indeed every year to the Lake Dragon King sacrifice, but also to offer some of the gold and silver things, but in the past, the sacrifice of the gold and silver is not as much as this, these years is really more than a year, a few decades ago, just the county of some of some of the foreign masters and households to offer the gold and silver, but the dog since the official came to our Shenlong County, even the people also have to follow the silver donations, the old man I have more than sixty years, my partner has been long time ago, and I have to follow the silver. More than sixty, my partner has long been gone, coupled with the frail and sickly, can not go to the lake fishing, usually rely on my daughter Xiaolan to others sewing and mending to earn some coins, that day, the government office came to people, let the old man I handed over five taels of silver, the old man I really do not have ah, that the dog officials will be the old man's daughter snatched, said to sacrifice to the lake dragon king as a maiden, the old man naturally refused to, they will be forcibly the old woman to the old woman to the snatched away ……"
When that old man Zhang said this, he was already sobbing uncontrollably, and his wrinkled face was covered with tearstains.
Wu Feng's heart was soft, he couldn't stand to see this situation, so he walked over and helped Zhang Lao Han up.
Zhou Ming without saying a word, huffed and puffed towards that dog magistrate, and with one foot, he kicked that magistrate over on the ground, hurting that dog magistrate with a miserable howl.
"Dog official, human evidence and material evidence are all there, what else do you have to sophistry? Searching the people's money, but also dare to forcefully rob the people's daughter?!"
"Injustice ah on the difference ……" The dog official did not dare to get up, continued to lie on the ground, kowtowed to Zhou Ming again and again, pitifully said, "Those gold and silver things, the next official did not get a copper plate, all of them are sacrificed to the Lake Dragon King, how to say that raiding the people's money? How can I say that I have raided the people's wealth? As for the woman sacrificed to the lake dragon king thing, all is the green pine Taoist instructed the official to do, he said that if not the gold and silver and women sacrificed to the lake dragon king, will certainly suffer a great disaster, the lake dragon king will come out to harm people's lives, this kind of thing is not unheard of, more than ten years ago, there was a year of severe drought, the sacred dragon lake shrunk by half, there is not much fish in the lake, the people are still hungry, did not offer sacrifices to the lake dragon king, and the result is a great disaster, a divine dragon from the lake, the lake dragon king, and the lake dragon king, and the lake dragon king, and the lake dragon king. A great disaster, a divine dragon crawled out of the lake and plagued many of the people, this matter is a thousand times true, and the people of the entire Shenlong County know about it."
Zhou Ming and Wu Feng for this matter will be doubtful, turn to look to the side of the old man Zhang, that Zhang old man but nodded and said: "good, this matter is indeed there, the Shenlong Lake climbed out of a real dragon, the whole body is covered with scales and armor, the head is as big as a bucket, climbed into the city swallowed more than a dozen people, only to return to the Shenlong Lake, this matter the old man saw with his own eyes. "
"True dragon?!" Wu Feng and Zhou Ming looked at each other in shock, could it be that there really is a divine dragon in this Divine Dragon County? Listening to them speak in a decent manner, but what puzzled Wu Feng was that this old man Zhang even said that the divine dragon climbed into the county, don't all dragons fly?
