Bab 175: Godforsaken Place

Zhou Jia flipped through the dossier that Shen Zhong had brought and saw that there were only more than 500 households in the entire county before the Qingchuan disaster. The total population was less than 30,000. There was only one person in the entire county city. He was an old scholar called Tu Chengdong in his forties. He was currently a clerk in the county office and there were four bailiffs.

He was so frightened that he abandoned his official position and fled.
