After persuading the villagers of Pang Family Village to leave, Chu Wangyu calmly walked into the private school, led the students in reciting an article for a while, and then announced that school would end early that day.
After all the students had left, Chu Wangyu gently closed the door of the private school, and then, with the same leisurely pace as always, headed towards Hang City...
In fact, Chu Wangyu did not think that the arrival of those soldiers and constables would bring any trouble to Hang City or even the villages near Hang City. After all, objectively speaking, the world at present is still a peaceful and prosperous era!
The Imperial Dynasty that currently rules the world is the Great Xia Dynasty!
When Chu Wangyu learned of the name "Da Xia", he once suspected that this Imperial Dynasty might be related to the "Da Xia" of his previous life. However, it was clear that with his current status, he could not possibly perceive such secrets.
However, it seems there's probably no connection between them, since one has a " Xianxia " art style and the other is a regular Mortal world; the two are completely unrelated.
The Great Xia Dynasty was an extremely powerful civilization.
After a three-hundred-year-long "war to slay the gods," the Sovereign of Xia officially established the Great Xia Dynasty.
The Great Xia Dynasty had a gradually improving bureaucratic system internally, and possessed a powerful Imperial Dynasty army externally. In addition, it had strict laws, prosperous commerce, and the Sovereign of Xia's explicit advocacy of "the people are more important than the ruler." Therefore, under normal circumstances, there would be no instances of government troops infringing upon the villagers.
This is also the fundamental reason why Chu Wangyu believes that the villagers of Pang Family Village are worrying unnecessarily.
Of course, Chu Wangyu was also curious about the government troops that suddenly appeared on this road. That's why he agreed to let the villagers of Pang Family Village go to Hang City to find Constable Zhao to investigate. If there was anything wrong, he could "change the map" and run away, right?
Upon entering Hang City, Chu Wangyu spotted Constable Zhao leading the Constables out of town.
As for Constable Zhao, when he saw Chu Wangyu, he was slightly taken aback at first, then his expression changed drastically as he rushed to Chu Wangyu's side, asking her in a panicked voice:
"What brings you to town? Could it be... that something involving ghosts and spirits has happened in town again?"
Hearing Constable Zhao's words, Chu Wangyu found them rather grating—it was as if he were a plague, that wherever he appeared, there were ghosts and spirits...
Unnaturally, from the depths of Chu Wangyu's memory, the image of a little "Grim Reaper" child with a bow tie and glasses slowly floated by...
However, after carefully considering her past interactions with Constable Zhao, Chu Wangyu belatedly realized that, apart from the hiring incident involving the extermination of ghosts and gods, she and Zhao really had no other connection!
So, what Constable Zhao said seems to make a lot of sense... what a load of rubbish!
He only comes to me when he's in trouble; he doesn't even set foot in Huangge Village when he's not. He had no interest in private school, and during the day he had to teach students and at night he had to secretly go out to gather information about the world, so naturally he had even less time to find Constable Zhao. Therefore, the only thing they had in common was the matter of eliminating ghosts and gods..
Looking at Constable Zhao, who stood before him with a slightly panicked and worried expression, Chu Wangyu didn't bother to question him. Instead, he changed the subject: "Old Zhao, tell me, what exactly happened? Look at yourself now, you're nothing like your usual self! Even if ghosts and spirits really appeared in Hang City, there's no need to act like this, right? Ghosts and spirits have appeared in Hang City before, and I've never seen you panic like this before."
After hearing Chu Wangyu's words, Constable Zhao smiled wryly and said, "Times have changed. You must know, today is Sun Futai. " "If any supernatural or ghostly occurrences happen on the day County Magistrate Sun takes office, he'll inevitably be in trouble!"
Upon hearing Constable Zhao's words, Chu Wangyu immediately realized that what the villagers of That One in Pang Family Village had seen must have been Sun Futai and his entourage who were about to take office in Hang City!
But... is it really necessary for such a grand ceremony to be held for a mere county magistrate taking office?
Although Chu Wangyu did not witness Sun Futai's group's entourage firsthand, according to That One According to the descriptions of the villagers of Pang Family Village, his appointment as magistrate must have exceeded the standard for a county magistrate.
Looking at Constable Zhao, who was sweating profusely and staring at him expectantly, Chu Wangyu shook his head helplessly: "Don't worry, Lord Zhao, I'm just here to stroll around Hang City today, not to exorcise demons!"
"Phew you scared the hell out of me!"
After hearing Chu Wangyu's words, Constable Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.
As for Chu Wangyu, after getting the answer she wanted from Constable Zhao, she prepared to return home at an opportune time.
However, at that moment, Constable Zhao, as if thinking of something, suddenly grabbed Chu Wangyu's wrist and asked him very kindly, "Are you alright today?"
"What are you planning to do?" Chu Wangyu glanced at Constable Zhao, sensing that the guy was up to something.
"If you have nothing else to do, why don't you come with me to meet County Magistrate Sun …" Constable Zhao immediately invited Dao.
"Sorry, I'm busy. Please don't bother me. Goodbye!" Chu Wangyu quickly said his refusal and then turned and walked away.
When a county magistrate arrives in Hang City to assume his post, his grand procession is as if he were inspecting the capital on behalf of the emperor. It's obvious that something fishy is going on here. Getting involved would be more harmful than beneficial!
Having sensed trouble, Chu Wangyu naturally wouldn't get involved in this mess.
As for Constable Zhao's hands, which had been tightly gripping Chu Wangyu's wrists, Chu Wangyu had already broken free.
In the end, Constable Zhao could only watch helplessly as Chu Wangyu walked away.
After Chu Wangyu returned to the private school, the villagers of Pang Family Village, who had been waiting there, all came to ask Chu Wangyu about the situation.
"It's nothing, it's just the Magistrate of Hang City taking office, it's just that the pomp and circumstance are a bit too much!" Chu Wangyu said.
Although the villagers of Pang Family Village still had doubts about Chu Wangyu's words, they were convinced that Chu Wangyu had obtained the information from Constable Zhao. Therefore, after some hesitation, they all dispersed
On the other side, Constable Zhao and his entourage, who came out of town to welcome the new county magistrate, passed through Pang Family Village and Huangge Village, and led the large entourage of County Magistrate Sun into the Hang City government office.
The journey was peaceful and uneventful; nothing happened along the way.
The "trouble" that Chu Wangyu sensed seemed to have become unfounded.
