In the dark of night, Deputy Mai walked alone to the street.
Nancheng is particularly quiet at night. Zhaocheng is the county seat of Riyang County and is a large city with a population of hundreds of thousands. The local governor is quite capable and manages the city in an orderly manner. There were all kinds of gangs and gangs in the local area, but when Gao Yuanhou went north, the first city to be governed was Zhaocheng. He carried out elite raids and cleaned up the messy gangs, leaving only a few peaceful Baidao, who were also marginalized. . The households were reorganized and the people were organized, and districts and cities were established, thus consolidating the authority of the government.
Thanks to years of governance, during this extraordinary period, the entire city has been under martial law and has been able to implement orders and prohibitions. Some left-behind children from wealthy families in the North City openly resisted the curfew. After being lectured by the district magistrate, they only dared to play secretly at home, while the South City was completely dark.
Mai Shiyu walked on the street, thinking about today's events and clarifying his thoughts.
The first question is, the note that came out of the blue looks similar, but has no beginning or end. Is it true or false?
But that's not a problem. Now that the arrival date of the empty magic cave is imminent, there is not much time left for myself. Whether the news this time is true or false, it can only be treated seriously. After all, I won't receive any other news. The two losers in Qingtian Temple are completely ruined. Whether it is true or false is all revealed.
So there are just a few things to do now.
The first thing is, of course, to arrange for the people in the place where the devil's cave has arrived to evacuate without causing any commotion. On the one hand, it cannot arouse the suspicion of Qingtian Temple, and on the other hand, it cannot cause panic among the people. After all, only some people need to take refuge. If it causes panic in the whole city and leads to chaos, the number of people who die may not be less than if it is caused by a sinister disaster. This matter must be completed within two days, and it is difficult to find names and excuses. As for what the guard envoy said about finding a reason to lock everyone in prison, that was the last resort. What kind of good place is a prison? One in and one out, at least half a life. She wouldn't consider it unless she had to.
The next thing is to find the person who sent you the letter. Deputy Ambassador Mai would rather believe that he is a kind-hearted person with a righteous heart, but he does not rule out the possibility that he is a traitor who intends to cause chaos. No matter what, you must see him with your own eyes and take the initiative.
After seeing him, he divided his words. If it was confirmed that the person had good intentions, then he would have to get rid of the two troubles from Qingtian Temple. It would be best to let them get out of Zhaocheng early so as not to harm the righteous man. If that person has malicious intentions, then be careful. He pointed himself towards Nancheng. How could he know that he was not trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain and stir up trouble in other places?
Then, it’s time to clean up the devil’s cave…
Three days, three days! time is too short!
Moreover, the people in the Prosecution Department cannot move, she is the only one who can do things, and her strength is weak. If possible, she has to plan and recruit a group of people.
Unknowingly, Deputy Mai walked to a big house. This house has a different shape. It is not a residential house, but a temple.
"Dongjun Temple——"
Deputy Mai's heart suddenly moved and he thought of something.
Suddenly, she felt something in her heart and turned around and shouted: "Come out!"
There was silence all around, and Deputy Mai sneered: "Hidden in the alley of the well. Do you think I'm deceiving you? Get out, or you will be cornered in this dragnet."
Someone in the alley sighed and said, "Sister Mai, I see you again."
A handsome young man came out of the alley. Deputy Mai was surprised and said: "Ah Zhao... why are you here?"
Tang Zhao was also helpless - lucky superposition? That's it?
He stacked them up as much as possible, first the lucky bag, then the good luck spring from the One Hundred and Eight Springs, and then the rosy light of the Yanggu Sword. Each one added luck, and he went out for a walk only when the luck was full. As a result, he bumped into Mai Shigure.
Well, running into Mu Shigure is not bad luck, right?
It's just too fast.
In order to avoid trouble, Tang Zhao and Jiang Shenyi planned to go out to sweep the streets at night. They divided their forces into two groups and tried their luck in two directions. Among them, Tang Zhao walked randomly with his eyes closed and followed Lucky's guidance. As soon as he turned two alleys, he was blocked by Mai Shiyu. It was as if they had come specifically to block him.
At this time, Tang Zhao explained: "Isn't the time approaching? I plan to come and find out where the devil's cave is."
Mai Shiyu asked curiously: "Do you also know how to do Tianyan? Do you know where the devil's cave is?"
Tang Zhaoqian smiled and said: "I don't know how, I just looked for it randomly." Seeing Mai Shiyu looking at him with strange eyes, he hurriedly changed the subject and said: "Sister Mai, you went out on the street late at night, do you have any clues? What do you have? Wherever you need me, you must speak up. Otherwise, I will not be sorry for the friendship we had when we fought side by side."
Mai Shiyu looked at Tang Zhao again and realized that he had grown taller than himself. His childishness was hard to detect in the dark night, but he actually looked like an upright adult. He said, "I do have a clue. It's a very difficult thing. It won't matter if it's done." It's a great achievement, but if it goes wrong, it will lead to great disaster. Do you want to get involved?"
Tang Zhao said: "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?"
Deputy Ambassador Mai said: "Of course it is a good thing. It is a good thing to do for the people."
Tang Zhao said: "Then why are you hesitating? Sister Mai gives the order."
Mai Shiyu smiled with relief and said: "Okay, if you don't let me transfer people, won't I be able to find like-minded companions? Come with me."
The two of them walked to a remote alley, silent and deserted in the dark night. Mai Shiyu didn't delay and told everything about what happened during the day.
Tang Zhao pondered and said, "Sister Mai was pondering in front of Dongjun Temple just now. Did you have an idea?"
Mai Shiyu nodded and said: "I have an idea. The imperial court has respected Dongjun since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the Dongjun Temple has been built in Zhaocheng for a hundred years. The people still believe in it, and there are dozens of Dongjun temples in the city, especially in Nancheng. Many. If the nearby Dongjun Temple holds an event, people can move out of their homes and gather in the temple to escape the disaster. There are only two or three days left, so don’t think about protecting your property, just escape with your life. "
Tang Zhao said: "This is a good idea." Although it was not perfect, it was already a good idea when he thought about it in a hurry. As Mai Shiyu said, when there is a sinister disaster, saving your life is the most important thing. To be honest, with the efficiency of the imperial court, if the evacuation is carried out according to the standard of avoiding disasters, just coordinating various chores, it may not be possible to complete the trip in two or three days, and even if the force is excessive, something bad may happen, and it will be cheated. faster.
Mai Shiyu said: "But the event is not held just because it is said to be held. There is no preparation at all now. There are only a few veteran Taoists in Dongjun Temple. The hasty event may be extremely crude. How can we attract so many people without arousing suspicion? ? You can’t hold a big show for several days in a row, right? There are people who don’t like going to the theater.”
Tang Zhao thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter. If you don't do a show, you will just stick to it."
Mai Shiyu said "Huh?", and Tang Zhao said: "Sister Mai, do you still remember the 'Nothing to Beg for' sword?"
Mai Shiyu's eyes lit up and he said: "It was taught by Shengyue... That swordsmanship is very useful. It can attract people's attention and no one can leave. But... you can make a magic weapon?"
Tang Zhao nodded and said, "Of course. I can do it."
He had used the Qiu Bu Sword several times in Jianzhou and it was very useful. Fu sword masters and even Kunjian cannot ignore the swordsmanship they seek. As long as the people enter the temple, how can they be distracted? It is easy to just stare at the magic weapon in a daze and gather for a day or two.
Mai Shiyu said happily: "That's great. We only need a few people to lead the people there, and it doesn't matter if they recite sutras all day long. But if you have to control the people's eating, drinking, and diarrhea, well, it doesn't matter. Dongjun Temple is the fattest. In the past, they ate from the people's offerings and kept a lot of food in reserve. It's their turn to repay the people."
Tang Zhao said: "Does Sister Mai have anyone you can trust? Although there are magic tools to help, someone needs to keep an eye on Dongjun Temple during the whole process just in case."
Mai Shiyu pursed his lips and said, "Yes..." But he was from the Land Inspection Department. The guardian did not allow her to use the people from the Prosecution Department.
Tang Zhao said: "If it doesn't work, let me do it, or my senior brother can do it."
Mai Shiyu said: "You two, it's a bit of a waste. Let me think about it again..." She was planning and said: "There are also two guys from Qingtian Temple, they are also in the way."
Tang Zhao said: "How about sending him out?"
Mai Shiyu said: "Fapai...ah, you?!"
Tang Zhao said: "I have a very good relationship with Master Xing." So the Biuan Sword is also in my sword manual!
Mai Shiyu's mood changed from cloudy to sunny, as if he was relieved of his shackles and felt very happy, saying, "Ah, it's so great to have a friend who is a Fu Sword Master! There is only one thing left now, go find that Tianyan master."
Tang Zhao was thinking about the swordsmanship, and Mai Shiyu said: "You don't have to worry about this, I will do it."
After that, draw your sword.
A flower tree bloomed in the dark night. The flower tree was full of flowers, half red and half white. There were actually fruits falling under the flowers, half of which were black plums and the other half were lovely red and white peaches.
"Taoli...Taoli Fangfei, that's it."
Mai Shiyu said: "That's right. My sword elephants are peaches and plums." After saying that, he pinched the sword technique and said, "Sword skills - peaches and plums are silent!"
The peach and plum tree shook slightly, and countless petals rotated in the air. Gradually, a footprint appeared in front of the peach and plum tree.
The footprints flashed for a moment, then extinguished themselves. Another footprint appeared just a short distance away, as if a transparent person was stepping forward.
Mai Shiyu said: "Follow this footprint."
Tang Zhao was very surprised and asked: "The peach and plum trees do not say anything, and they make their own mistakes. Are they automatically finding their way?" This swordsmanship is also very effective. Take it over and over.
Mai Shiyu said: "Well, there must be a clue. That clue has been destroyed. Fortunately, my sword can still remember his breath."
The two of them followed the footsteps forward. Not far away, they were also in the Nancheng area. They turned into a small street and reached the end.
Tang Zhao entered a street, and before he even saw the footsteps coming to the end, he was already staring at a house.
No need to ask, it’s right there!
Sure enough, the footsteps stopped at the door of this house.
Mai Shiyu stood in front of the house, looking at the tile-roofed house, and pondered: "Isn't this house a little strange? It's different from other houses."
Tang Zhao said: "This house is not what is common in Yunzhou. It seems to be... the style of Youzhou."
Youzhou and Yunzhou are both in the north of China, not far from each other. The styles of the houses are so similar that Mai Shiyu couldn't tell them apart for a while. Tang Zhao was not an architectural expert, but when he saw this house, he suddenly thought of a person and immediately recognized the difference in this house.
Mai Shiyu motioned to Tang Zhaoyin to stay aside in case of an unexpected incident. He knocked on the door and said, "Is anyone at home? Someone destined to visit is here."
There was a knock on the door, and a middle-aged scholar with an unattractive appearance opened the door. He looked calm and said, "As expected, Deputy Ambassador Mai is here. Please come in. I have been waiting for a long time."
When Tang Zhao saw this person, his heart dropped. It turned out to be Zhang Rong!
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
