Chapter 59: The Flaming Mountain

"Minister of the County, do you ask me if you have any instructions?" Zheng Nan asked respectfully.

"You go and give orders to You Shensi, and say that the county magistrate is going to go to the Flame Mountain and let their director Luo Ben be with him. In addition, let Yuan Hong, the director of the Fourth Department, follow him."

Su Mu said casually.

"Here."

Master Zheng Nan turned around and went to do things.

Soon Master Zheng Nan came back to report his life, but what he said made Su Mu's pupils shrink slightly, and a cold feeling appeared in his heart. It seemed that he wanted to give me a warning.

"You reported to the county magistrate, Director Luo Benzheng of Youshensi has asked for sick leave. He said that it will take at least half a year to treat the disease, so he has no way to accompany him."

"As for the director of the Fourth Department, Yuan Hong, was performing official duties outside and was not in the county town." Zheng Nanshi said with a stern look.

A sick leave?

One out.

Is this a warning to me?

When the county magistrate took office yesterday, he saw these two people. They were going to go to Flame Mountain today. They said they were all in trouble. Isn’t this explicitly looking for trouble?

No wonder Liu Bi'an said that the Lan County city was all Guo Huai Party, and it seems that it is true now.

"Is this how?"

Without even thinking too much, Su Mu said directly: "Then let the two departments send the deputy directors here."

"Here."

Half an hour later, Su Mu and his party left Lanjun City in a mighty manner and began to head to the west. Li Nanshan, deputy director of Youshen Department, and Dong Qianshui, deputy director of the Fourth Department.

Interestingly, although these two guys are both deputy directors in their respective yamen, unfortunately they are both at the bottom of the rankings. Not to mention the other deputy directors, even some of the powerful governors do not take them seriously.

They do not have power, nor do they have power.

"Monkey King, there is the Flame Mountain in front of you." Li Nanshan said, pointing to the stretching mountains in front of you.

"Is this the eight hundred miles of Flaming Mountain?"

This is the first time Su Mu has seen him.

He had only seen a description in the book before, saying, "The Flame Mountain is neither spring nor autumn, and all seasons are hot. That mountain is the only way to the West, but there are 800 miles of flames, and no grass grows around it. If you can pass by the mountain, even the copper brain and iron body will turn into juice."

The temperature here is indeed very high.

Even though Su Mu and the others were all immortal officials, they still felt their bodies burning, as if they were in an alchemy furnace and were roasted. Such a mountain range directly cut off the possibility of Lanjun City developing westward.

And the most exaggerated thing is that the so-called 800-mile Flame Mountain is actually alive.

It moves anytime, anywhere.

At the current rate, in about thirty years, the Flame Mountain will spread to Lan County City, and by then the entire county city will be completely wiped out.

"Can you find a way to get over?" Su Mu asked.

"cannot!"

After hearing such a question, Master Zheng Nan sneered disdainfully in his heart, but answered in a normal manner.

"With this Flame Mountain, if you want to take a detour, you can only walk from both sides. But there are also flames everywhere on both sides. Although it is not as hot as here, ordinary immortals will be burned to death as long as they dare to go deeper."

"Monkey King, this Flame Mountain is the biggest problem for our Lanjun City. If it can be solved, our Lanjun City might be able to restore its former glorious status."

"I wonder if the county magistrate has any solutions?"

Master Zheng Nan inadvertently made a trap for Su Mu.

"Master Zheng Nan, why did I hear that these 800-mile Fire Mountain seem to have something to do with the deputy county magistrate Guo Huai. It is said that it was made by Guo Huai, right?" Su Mu asked indifferently.

"Impossible! This is a rumor! It is a witch that confuses the public!"

Zheng Nanzheng shouted loudly without thinking: "County magistrate, this Fire Mountain has nothing to do with the Deputy County Magistrate, and he can't do this. This is simply to slander the Deputy County Magistrate. If he could really do this, he would have been no longer staying in our Lan County City, right?"

"I just said casually, why are you doing so nervous?" Su Mu smiled.

"I!"

Master Zheng Nan smiled embarrassedly.

"Go back!"

Su Mu wanted to continue moving forward, but found that there was no chance at all. The fire in the Flame Mountain seemed to be able to refine the body of the immortal official. If you force it to get close, you will only be very dangerous.

There is no need for this.

When Su Mu and the others returned to Lanjun City, they did not say that they were anxious to go back to the government office. Looking at the Youshensi Yamen in front of them, Su Mu pointed casually, "Let's go to Youshensi for a walk."

"Minister, are you going suddenly?" Zheng Nanshi was a little stunned and asked quickly.

"What? Isn't it possible? Is this county magistrate even able to go to Youshensi?" Su Mu looked over with fun, revealing an unconcealed murderous intent in his tone.

When touching Su Mu's eyes, Master Zheng Nan was a little nervous and said quickly: "Of course, You Shensi is controlled by the county magistrate, why can't you go? I just felt that we went over rashly, and they were not prepared. Why don't I ask them to prepare? Li Nanshan, go back quickly and say that the county magistrate is going to You Shensi, and they all move."

"I!"

"No need to be so troublesome. I have to go there anyway, so let's go there together. Besides, Director Zheng, are you so worried about You Shensi? If you want me to say it is not necessary, You Shensi will definitely work in an orderly manner. I am full of confidence in this." Su Mu slowly interrupted Li Nanshan.

"Let's go!"

The group began to walk forward and soon walked into You Shensi's gate.

Master Zheng Nan's heart was up and down.

He really didn't expect Su Mu to do this. Could it be that going to Flame Mountain was his cover? His real purpose was to come to You Shensi to conduct a private visit? But if that was the case, what would he want to do?

"What's going on? Isn't that Director Zheng Nan? Who is he with?"

"Nonsense, our county magistrate can naturally be with Director Zheng."

"You said that person is our new county magistrate Su Mu?"

"What are Su Mu doing when we come to You Shensi?"

As Su Mu and the others walked in, everyone who saw them showed a puzzled expression, but after they were confused, they soon became panicked.

Of course they had to panic.

Because when Su Mu started wandering around, the scene he saw was a mess and a mess.

He had thought that there would be problems with You Shensi here, and he knew that these problems all existed, but when he actually saw them, he found that he was out of anger.

This is simply a matter of people.

The scene that Chen Nanhua experienced at the Finance and Treasury Department in Wuliang City is perfectly copied here, not only but even worse than the situation in the Finance and Treasury Department.

malfeasance!

Slack!

Have fun!
