In the evening, two doctors from Qingtian Temple were drinking and drinking.
In the past two days, it was Mai Shiyu's turn to call the shots in the city. The situation suddenly changed. The two of them were semi-exiled and ignored, so they were naturally very angry. He wanted to leave the city and return to the capital, but he was worried about the war between the demon sect outside. He didn't know the outcome yet, and he was afraid of danger on the road, so he had no choice but to stay. Now that the day of the devil's cave was approaching, I figured there was no hope and nothing could be done, so I simply did nothing and found a hotel on the street to drink.
Nowadays, everyone is at Dongjun Temple, and the wine shops on the street are not open. But there was still plenty of wine, so the two doctors didn't care much. They kicked open the door of the shop, pulled out a jar from the cabinet, and started drinking it just like the food.
While he was drinking, Dr. Li sneered and said: "At the latest the day after tomorrow, or as early as today, the devil's cave will come. No matter how arrogant that woman is, she is powerless to save herself. Thinking about how she wasted her energy and could not prevent the evil, By then there will be heavy casualties, and we will definitely scream and cry, just feel happy!"
Dr. Wang slapped the table and said: "That's not all. When we go back, we will bear all the sins of indulging in the devil's cave and causing harm to her. Let Marquis Gao Yuan take her to the capital. Isn't Marquis Gao Yuan said to love the people like his own son and his soldiers like his own sons?" How do you choose between your beloved generals on one side and the people on the other? If you want to protect your own people, don’t pretend to be a blue sky..."
Dr. Li was quite prudent at first and did not openly criticize the local princes. At this time, after drinking, he became full of resentment and said: "Yes, I have long noticed that Yunzhou is not pleasing to the eye. The whole world is turbulent and I am alone. What are you pretending to be? You, Marquis Gaoyuan, have sucked the people's fat and anointed you less? Don't recruit more people's power? Don't do anything arrogant? Are you just eating more elegantly and thinking you are a saint? I think they don't take the imperial court seriously. Let's just break up. What does the Qingtian Temple of the imperial court have to do with you? Why do you use it..."
He raised his head and drank a cup, and suddenly found a letter on the table and said, "Dr. Wang, did you bring this?"
Dr. Wang was even more drunk than he was, biting his tongue and saying, "Who brought this?" He stretched out his hand, pulled it open, and tore it open. He immediately woke up from the wine and shouted, "Guo Lingtai!"
Dr. Li was also covered in cold sweat and said, "What's wrong? Where is Guo Lingtai?"
Guo Lingtai is the most irritable and ill-tempered Lingtai Lang in Qingtian Temple. The two of them see each other like a mouse seeing a cat.
"He...he asked us to visit him. The address is...is..."
The two of them were near-sighted from studying, and they couldn't see clearly after drinking too much. They looked closer together and finally saw the line of small letters with the address.
"Yes, it's Guo Lingtai's handwriting. I recognize his handwriting. Why is he here and asking us to come over?"
"Do you think we are not doing things well enough that Ling Tailang came here to supervise the matter in person?"
Dr. Li was startled and waved his hand quickly: "Go, it's impossible, there is no such precedent. How many people can die in a small empty magic cave? Is it worth coming down to Lingtai Lang? I think Guo Lingtai passed by here incognito on a private visit. Seeing that the situation is not right, ask us to go over and ask about the situation."
Dr. Wang said: "Exactly. It's so perfect. I'm about to sue that bitch named Mai for not respecting Qingtian Temple at all. From now on, we won't let them calculate the devil's cave in Yunzhou."
The two complained and left in a hurry. No one asked them to pay the bill, leaving only a mess in the wine shop.
Fortunately, the two of them had been walking around the city for several days and were familiar with the roads, so they quickly found the place.
It was a private house on the street, slightly different from the houses on both sides. The two of them were so drunk that they didn't notice anything unusual.
He stepped forward and knocked on the door. The door opened automatically. No one came out to greet him. The two of them didn't find it strange, so they went in together.
The house is very narrow and has a strange layout. There is a corridor as soon as you enter the door, and it goes around and seems to have been a corridor without any open rooms.
The lighting in the house was not good, and there were no lights on. Even though it was daytime, the two of them still felt dim. They groped forward, with no way to turn back. They opened several doors and turned around several walls. Then the sky brightened and they suddenly became enlightened. .
He actually walked out of the yard again!
The two of them touched their heads and felt dizzy. They turned around and exited the same way. They felt something was wrong when they were blown by the cool wind carrying moisture. Looking further ahead, I saw a sparkling river in front of me. There were willows on both sides of the river, and the scenery was pleasant.
etc……
Isn't it a street?
Is there such a river in the city?
The two of them became more and more confused. When they looked back, they saw that what was behind them was not a street, but a straight official road, empty and deserted. There are three or five houses not far away, built along the wide official road. There are guest houses and stables. Where is the private house, it is clearly a post station.
Have you seen a ghost? !
At this time, the two of them had really sobered up from the wine, and sweat was pouring down their faces. Dr. Wang yelled: "Where is this...where is this?"
His cry alerted the postmen at the post station, and they rushed out. Seeing that the two men were well-dressed and dressed in official uniforms, they hurriedly nodded and bowed and said, "Two adults, you have arrived at Qinghe Post."
The two of them were even more confused, as they seemed to have this place name in their heads. Dr. Li opened his tongue and said: "Is this Qingheyi? Then Zhaocheng..."
The postman respectfully said to the two drunkards: "It turns out that you two adults are going to Zhaocheng. Walk along this road and you will arrive in seven or eight days. Anyway, it is tonight, so you two will stop at the post. one night?"
"ah?!"
Night falls, the moon rises and sets, and the sky is white.
As we all know, the devil's cave must come at night, when the evil moon rises and the devil's cave descends. So gradually, moonlight nights have become synonymous with disaster in the market.
On all moonlit nights, even if there is no warning of the Devil's Cave, most ordinary people will not dare to go out. At that time, a hundred people who were caught violating the law were beheaded on the streets, and at most one was unjustly accused.
However, only the Hollow Demon Cave is different. Its arrival does not matter the time, from day to night, it may arrive out of thin air. And it has almost nothing to do with sword types.
Therefore, the empty magic cave is the most difficult to calculate. The old method of deriving the number of months, hours and days is basically invalid. In the past hundred years, the empty magic cave has been called the "evil dragon", which means the dragon sees its head but not its tail. But later the National Master came up with a point of view, which means "the unexpected arrival of the empty magic cave", which means that the source of the empty magic cave is not the invasion of heavenly demons, but the collision between this world and the outside world, which caused space instability, so an accidental passage between the two worlds was opened. , so the calculation of the empty magic cave should be done in the sky. The previous generation Qingtian Temple Minister established a new calculation method based on this, which broke the limitations of the calculation of celestial numbers. It's just that this set of counting methods is still very novel. Not to mention ordinary officials and Lingtai Lang, even the current Shaoqing has difficulty in calculating the standards, and the Zhengqing cannot do everything personally, so the empty magic cave is still in a state of being freed.
This time, the Sky Demon Cave Qingtian Temple only sent two doctors, and they were planning to give up. Fortunately, Chaocheng seemed to be lucky, and foreign aid fell from the sky.
I wonder if the news I got this time is accurate?
Mai Shiyu took a deep breath of the cold early spring air.
She was standing near the address given in the message, surrounded by empty houses.
According to calculations, the devil's cave would arrive at sunrise, and she led the prosecutor's office to squat here in the middle of the night.
At this time, the surrounding people were praying in Dongjun Temple, and the streets were repeatedly confirmed to be empty. Only on the two critical streets were government officials deployed to guard the perimeter. The streets are full of people from the District Procuratorate.
If the calculation is correct and progress goes smoothly, when the people come back after the Demon Cave, although some people will lose property, there should be no casualties, and the court will rescue some property, and the Demon Cave will be over. The Prosecution Department has made great achievements, and everyone is happy.
If it is not allowed...
It’s just that the location is not correct. Most of the houses in the city are empty at this time. If it falls on other streets, it will not hurt a few people. There are aristocratic families guarding the mansion in the north, but they also have the ability to protect themselves.
If the time is not correct, it will be troublesome. One or two hours or half a day is okay. At most, the brothers will be tired and stay longer. However, if the time is wrong by one or two days, the activities in Dongjun Temple will not be delayed that long. If it takes too long, there will be trouble.
The most frightening thing is that the time and place are wrong, which proves that this matter is a complete nonsense. Mai Shiyu is busy and busy, even gritting his teeth and offending others, and finally being fooled around. He is just a big fool. If the other party is not only poor in academic skills, but also has other conspiracy, then the inspection department may suffer more losses or even be completely defeated.
if that is the case……
Mai Shiyu didn't dare to think about it. All I can say is that it was a nightmare.
The closer the time limit was, the more uneasy Mai Shiyu became. Although he had already made up his mind to leave, his heart was always hanging in the air until he opened the dice cup.
In order to distract her attention, she looked at Tang Zhao next to her.
Tang Zhao looked calm, but Mai Shiyu could tell that the young man was also very nervous. He has not yet reached the point where he can express his emotions and anger, and he will also show nervousness when encountering tests.
This is different from the nervousness of Fu Hui's speech. At that time, even if the speech was not good, he would be embarrassed if he made a fool of himself. Now that the devil's cave has come, if something goes wrong, innocent people will be killed.
How could he not be nervous about such a critical task?
On the other hand, Jiang Shenyi could not be seen to be nervous. Instead, he was in high spirits, full of excitement and curiosity. Tang Zhao was not sure, but Jiang Shenyi had confidence in this junior brother. He was just curious about what ability the junior brother had to move the devil's cave away?
His eyes fell behind Tang Zhao, where there were several jars containing various materials. Tang Zhao held something in his hand, which he wanted to use first.
That seems to be a bottle of "spring water"?
One hundred and eight springs?
Jiang Shenyi thought, what kind of spring water can be used now? It's definitely not a fountain of good luck. Tang Zhao had already drank a lot earlier, which brought him all kinds of good fortune. Before, everyone worked together to increase their luck, but there was no extra gain. I don't know why he still has confidence in increasing his luck now.
In short, this bottle of spring water must be useful, but I just don’t know how to use it?
At this time, Jiang Shenyi was also holding something, but it was a strange stone compass, which was used to sense spatial fluctuations. Although Fu Sword Master cannot measure the number of days, it is not difficult to perceive real-time spatial fluctuations.
As time passed by, the sky became whiter and whiter, and a golden rim faintly appeared on the top of the mountain.
It's going to be sunrise.
Suddenly, a gust of wind seemed to blow from the surface of the exotic stone compass, and the pointer began to tremble.
Space fluctuations!
The devil's cave is coming!
"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.
