The reason why he took out the Demon Cave when Jiang Shenyi was the only one was because of a tacit understanding.
It stands to reason that the Chief Inspector has borne the risk of dealing with the Demon Cave, and is willing to risk his own life for this. The output of the Demon Cave is naturally their trophy. In fact, this is also the case. Although there is no express provision, the District Inspector has priority to dispose of the harvest in the Demon Cave, even if it is such a precious thing as a sword seed, let alone other materials? If the demon cave cannot be closed in time and turns into a long-lasting demon prison, it will be handed over to the government for further arrangements.
However, Mai Shiyu called Tang Zhao and asked him to deal with the Demon Cave, and tacitly allowed him to move. This meant that he was giving him the power to handle the Demon Cave. This was actually quite generous and not in line with the rules. After all, Tang Zhao's one-man power was important. , other people in the Prosecution Department have also cooperated in various ways, and it is not fair to give it all to him. Therefore, it must not be said openly. This is a tacit thing.
Similarly, if there is any danger in the Demon Cave later, whether it is a demon or a phantom, Tang Zhao will need to deal with it. If he doesn't handle it well and lets those demons run out and cause trouble, he will definitely bear the blame. If he is unable to defeat the enemy and calls the Chief Inspector for assistance, then the power to dispose of the Demon Cave will also be transferred. He can only get a share of the pie, but not all of it.
Therefore, Tang Zhao waited for Mai Shiyu and others to return to the city before calling Jiang Shenyi, and the two of them took a look at the Demon Cave together.
In fact, this devil's cave can be dealt with after going back, but there is a "heavenly demon" tied to the door. His whereabouts are still unknown, but it is an unstable factor, and Tang Zhao has to deal with it in time.
When I opened the Demon Cave from the layers of packages, I saw that the door was tightly sealed with chains. The two hands were still locked in the gaps between the chains, but they seemed different from before.
Jiang Shenyi said first: "Is this a dead person?"
It does seem like death.
The hands of the dead were different from the hands of the living. Both of them could see that the knuckles were obviously stiff and weak.
Tang Zhao was very curious, why did this demon die? He didn't kill anyone?
After all, living demons are rare to see, so Tang Zhao wanted to keep them to see if he could conduct experiments or something.
Or maybe he was pretending to be dead?
Tang Zhao carefully removed the two chains. Jiang Shenyi used Gang Qi to condense into his hands and pulled the devil out of the other side of the space. Tang Zhao immediately blocked the entrance with his backhand. The two of them worked together smoothly, and there were no surprises.
The demon fell to the ground and fell down. Its limbs were stiff and had no instinctive reactions. It was indeed dead.
Tang Zhao was startled and turned it over.
This demon was lying on his back. He was tall and strong, but his appearance was really no different from that of a human being. Only the facial features are slightly uncoordinated, but it's not like there are people with such deformities in the world. It's just that he has long dark green hair on his head, combed into curly braids, and he doesn't look like a normal person.
Tang Zhao's heart moved: Although this kind of hair color cannot be produced normally, people from Yinhuo Village may have colorful hair if they are polluted by the Yin Qi in the Demon Cave. How could they not have green hair?
For a moment, he thought this was a normal person who mistakenly entered the devil's cave opposite and wanted to escape after being infected by the devil's energy...
It was unlikely. Tang Zhao felt that this was still a heavenly demon. He heard that there were humanoid heavenly demons outside the territory, and there were also different races. This green haired man might be one of them.
Except for his hair color, his facial features and limbs were the same as those of human beings, and he was also wearing clothes. He was wearing a fur skirt and coat that looked like a sack. Although it was very simple, it was obviously made by a tailor and was not a primitive man who casually pulled off a piece of animal skin and wrapped it around his body.
Jiang Shenyi followed up and checked, and said: "The bleeding from the seven orifices, could it be poisoning?"
Tang Zhao looked similar and said, "Is it suicide?"
Jiang Shenyi shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it makes sense. Maybe you caught him and committed suicide in despair?"
Tang Zhao felt that it didn't make sense. The demon was rampaging and very energetic before. After being restrained by him, he struggled endlessly. He didn't seem to accept his fate. Why did he commit suicide after being locked up for only one and a half hours?
But neither of them knows the art of treating poisons, so they are just guessing here. This is something that cannot be explained until more information is known.
Tang Zhao concluded: "Since he is dead, let's save it first and then find someone who is familiar with medicine and poison to analyze it. This devil's cave..." He glanced at the entrance to the space that looked like frosted glass, "It's a bit troublesome. Seal it first, and then go in after we figure it out."
Compared with the fact that there is a demon inside, the mysterious death of the demon is more suspicious.
In fact, when the two of them were discussing suicide, they had already unknowingly regarded this "devil" as an intelligent creature like a human being. After all, only intelligent creatures know how to commit suicide.
Since it is an intelligent creature, the implications are complicated. There are "people" in the devil's cave, there may be "civilization", and there is "society". The natural conditions may be a hundred times more complicated than the wild ecology. Both of them are unfamiliar with the Demon Cave, and they don't know whether the rumors they heard are true or false. They have just spent a game at this time and are not in their prime, so they don't want to get involved rashly.
From another perspective, this kind of magic cave has deeper water and many places to dig. If you can successfully enter or even completely master the magic cave, you may have unexpected gains.
I found a treasure this time.
"You can ask Mr. Zhang. He compiled the "Outside Map Chronicle" and is very familiar with the outside world. As for the cause of death of the demon... we still need to find someone to check."
Jiang Shenyi said: "It would be great if the second senior brother was still here. He knows a lot more and knows poison techniques very well."
Tang Zhaoqi asked: "Second senior brother knows poison? Aren't you from a Taoist sect and cultivate your health?"
Jiang Shenyi smiled and said: "That's right. He also made elixirs during his spare time. Later, his master scolded him: 'Refining bullshit elixirs will turn out to be poison.' He still refused to accept it. Later, he specialized in poisons and became very good at it."
"..." Tang Zhao was speechless for a while, "It's a pity that the second senior brother is not here, so I might as well ask the third senior sister to check..."
Jiang Shenyi asked curiously: "Third Senior Sister? Will she test it?"
Tang Zhao said: "Of course, senior sister's medical skills are very magical and she is uniquely blessed by nature."
Jiang Shenyi was amazed. He had never even seen the appearance of the third senior sister, let alone what she was good at. It's not surprising that Tang Zhao has never met the second senior sister, because he came up the mountain late, but he has only been here three years, and he is already so familiar with the third senior sister, which is really strange. Jiang Shenyi suspected that if the second senior brother was on the mountain, Tang Zhao would still have a good relationship with him.
By the way, what do you call senior sister... Zhu Ying... right?
The two of them had discussed and decided that Tang Zhao should put away the Demon Cave, seal it together in the lotus pond, and then stuff it into a jar. Then he put the corpse of the demon in another jar. Then they searched the surroundings again to see that there were no missing enemies before they both returned to the city. Jiang Shenyi's wings consumed too much thunder and lightning and looked unbalanced. He simply gave up and flew back and took Tang Zhao's car back to the city.
When I returned to Zhaocheng, I saw at a glance that the towers were full of soldiers. The city was in order and normalcy was restored.
Tang Zhao and the others came to the sky above the city and immediately saw someone mobilizing the magic bow to point at him. Tang Zhao didn't get into trouble and landed slowly. Before he could speak, he heard someone shouting: "Don't aim, it's one of our own."
After successfully landing on the city wall, I saw Mai Shiyu and another stranger walking up. The man was a man in his thirties, with a stout build. Although he was not tall, he looked powerful, as if he had the power of an explosion. There was a curved scar on his face, hanging down from the tip of his eyebrow, almost to his ear. It looks a bit ferocious.
Mai Shiyu, who had been half a step behind, took the lead and introduced: "This is Tang Zhao of Dongshan County. That is his senior brother at Zhuoyu Villa." Then he introduced to Tang Zhao: "This is the Inspector of Qu of Riyang County. .”
Tang Zhao was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. I didn't expect the inspector to arrive so quickly. Although they arrived afterward, in fact, if Tang Zhao and the others were not so powerful, they could resolve the crisis in three strikes, five strikes, and two strikes. According to the strength of the General Prosecution Division's garrison, they had been in a stalemate with the turtle bandits for a period of time, and the patrol envoys would have had time to turn the tide. of.
He is not in Riyang County and is not familiar with Inspector Qu, but he looks very majestic and even a bit sinister with the scars. Compared to the cat Fu Xianchan... the civet flower sword, this one looks more like him. A dignified fourth-grade inspector patrolling a place. Tang Zhao vaguely remembered that the inspector's sword seemed to be a "pan" sword, and he was also a powerful swordsman, but he probably never had the chance to see him take action.
Although Inspector Qu had a fierce appearance, he didn't put on any airs when he saw Tang Zhao. He said, "Tang Zhao, I've heard of this kid. I thought he was still a child. I didn't expect him to be such a handsome young man."
Tang Zhaoqi said: "I wonder where the inspector knew the name of the student. Could it be..."
Inspector Qu said: "Xiao Fu mentioned it. She said that you are not very old, but you are talented and heroic, and you will become a pillar in the future."
It turned out to be the Lihua Sword. He thought Xing Ji had mentioned it. Yes, they were both inspectors, so maybe they were friends. Tang Zhao said embarrassedly: "Inspection envoy Miuzan, how can a student dare to be a student?" He then reported on the situation of cleaning up the battlefield outside the city. The one who was originally supposed to report to Mai Shiyu was now the patrol envoy.
After hearing this, the inspector nodded and said: "Mi Guard has sent out scouts to explore the surrounding areas. The guard envoy... the deputy envoy also sent a few brothers to follow. It will be safe when General Fei's army is mobilized. Xiaotang, let's go down to the city. Right. The garrison exchange here is not a place for our inspection department to stay for a long time."
After a few people got off the city wall, Mai Shiyu said to Tang Zhao: "The sudden arrival of the turtle bandits this time is not a trivial matter. We need to review it from beginning to end, and then make a record and report it directly to the king. You may be required to stay in the city. Stay for a few days until everything settles before going back."
This is also the proper meaning of the title. The turtle bandits have different meanings to the government and to Jianghu forces like Long Yuan. They are the primary enemy. The action this time was huge. It can be said that this was a real rebellion, and a city almost fell. If something like this happens, it won't be complete unless we check Riyang County and even Yunzhou, and we might end up losing a lot of heads. Although the Inspectorate did not care about the turtle bandits, this time the turtle bandits took advantage of the devil's cave to destroy the city wall, and the garrison envoy fell into the hands of the enemy for a time. There was no rush to reward them based on their merits, and they had to first check whether everyone had neglected their duties.
Tang Zhao agreed: "I will cooperate."
Inspector Qu said from the front: "This matter will naturally be brought to the Lord. Vice Minister Mai has to go back to Zhongtian Mansion to report. Would you like Xiaotang to follow and pay homage to the Lord?"
"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.
