Mo Siyu got up, put on her clothes, and finished washing. Chu Chuyan always woke up much earlier than her, and was no longer in the bedroom.
Open the door, the sky has cleared up.
The temperature is still very low, but the sun is dazzling. Last night, the snowstorm covered all the footprints and horseshoe marks.
The snow is like a white quilt, thick to the calf.
The servants are shoveling snow and clearing the road in the backyard, talking and laughing one by one:
"The city lord captured the water monster in our Moon City just after he took office. It's really amazing."
"Now there are notices posted, saying that the former river god was this water monster, and the sacrifices offered to the river god in the past also entered the stomach of this water monster."
"So, the former city lord threw the boy and girl alive to this water monster, what a crime..."
"If it wasn't for the city lord doing something this time, I don't know how many children will be killed in the future..."
"Fortunately, Mr. Yu kicked the city lord into the moat, otherwise, we might not know the truth of this matter in this life..."
"This summer, the number of children playing in the moat dropped by a dozen, and most of them were eaten by this water monster..."
"The city lord said that the sacrifice to the river god will stop here. No matter what you do in the future, no one will be allowed to sacrifice a living person..."
"The city lord has already started his ascension today, and a big drum was placed at the gate of the city lord's mansion, saying that anyone who has a grievance in the future can beat the drum to express their grievances, and the city lord will have a public trial.
People can still go to listen, which is unprecedented and unheard of. "
"That's right, the city lord promulgated so many laws at once, all of which are beneficial to us ordinary people. Compared with the previous city lord, this city lord is rare in the sky and nothing on the earth..."
…
Mo Siyu listened to these words silently, a little surprised.
In one night, this squire unexpectedly came up with so many plans for governing the city.
If it wasn't for the fact that there was an expert around him, and he was pointed out, he would be a person who hides his secrets.
But if he is really a person who hides his secrets, why can't he even protect his own children, and wants to make a fuss in front of the high priest on the day of the sacrifice?
Mo Siyu didn't think too much, just asked: "The water monster was caught, did the city lord say what to do with it?"
The servants of the Chu Mansion saw Mo Siyu, and thought that it was thanks to Mo Siyu's kick that he kicked the former city lord into the moat. I boiled the water monster, and I heard that everyone will share a bowl of soup.
Bless the people of Yuecheng to be free from disease and disaster in the future. "
Mo Siyu: "..."
I feel a little disgusted when I hear it, what's the matter?
Yesterday I saw that there were still undigested fragments in the belly of the water monster.
If this thing really came out of the former miasma forest, what if it is poisonous?
Mo Siyu felt that it was necessary for him to remind the city lord, although the city lord hated this thing to the bone and wanted to eat meat, but it is better not to eat some things that can be eaten and others.
Mo Siyu turned back to the room, put on a cloak and hood, and walked out.
I happened to meet Chu Chuyan who came out from next door, "Brother Yu, where are you going?"
"I heard that the city lord boiled the water monster in a big pot and distributed the food to the people. I want to go over and see if it is poisonous...
The city lord has good intentions, but if there is a problem casually, the loss outweighs the gain! "
