Qin Gang responded, "Silver, cloth, jewelry, fields, everything is available. You have made great contributions to this palace case! You also rescued the princess, and the emperor specially rewarded her with more!"
"By the way, Sikyong, I don't know when I will be able to see the emperor. Next time you see the emperor, please tell me that the strictness of Dali Temple has also helped me a lot."
"Okay, I'll say a few words!"
"When will these rewards come out?"
Qin Gang glanced at him, "Are you in such a hurry? These rewards also need time to be arranged!"
"I'm a little anxious!" Li Huaiyun said. After all, after receiving the rewards, he would be able to talk to Hongyun. Anyone who makes her not believe in him must be slapped hard in the face.
Qin Gang waved his hand, "You don't need to be anxious, just wait patiently! Since I informed these things and guaranteed for this matter, those rewards cannot be fake."
When Li Huaiyun heard this, he felt relieved and then clasped his hands in his fists, "Then I'll thank Sikyong in advance!"
He still couldn't resist being curious, "Um, Sikyong, how much silver do you have?"
He has never received such a big reward, and he is very curious at the moment. He always wants to convert everything into silver coins. After all, that is more intuitive!
"Based on your performance, I'll give you about a thousand liang! No matter how much you do, it shouldn't be much more!"
Li Huaiyun was still disappointed with this figure, "This is only a thousand taels, can we discount the others?"
"Is a thousand taels too little? Your requirements are quite high!"
"It's not that I think it's too little! Sikyong, just the medicinal materials my aunt spent on me cost three to four hundred taels of silver, let alone other things! This thousand taels of silver is too little!"
"What are you talking about Qianliang?"
"Silver!"
Qin Gang laughed disdainfully, with a look of extreme contempt, "When I said a thousand taels, I meant gold!"
"Nani!" When Li Huaiyun heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he was so surprised. His eyes widened, as if he thought he had heard wrong, "Gold! A thousand taels of gold?"
"Of course it's gold. This kind of reward is rare. It shows that the emperor's impression of you is quite good."
Li Huaiyun stood there stupidly. He had never had so much wealth. To describe him as getting rich overnight was not an exaggeration.
It looks like I'm going to slap my aunt hard when I get back. This woman still doesn't like me, but I'll soon make her look at me differently.
"That's right!" Qin Gang seemed to have thought of something and immediately told Li Huaiyun, "If the emperor calls you into the palace, you must be careful."
"Ah! Be careful? Do you want me to refuse those rewards?"
"Of course not, there is something special among those rewards!"
"special place?"
"When we were discussing it before, he was interested in your marriage to Mu Yuan!"
"This...!" When Li Huaiyun heard this, his scalp went numb. It was not that he thought Mu Yuan was bad, but that his current practice was not suitable for starting a family. In addition, he himself said that he would first avenge his parents. , will consider starting a family.
"What's going on with the emperor? Why do you suddenly want me to marry Mu Yuan?"
"Firstly, you worked hard and saved Mu Yuan several times. Secondly, he felt that he owed his daughter all these years, so he wanted to find him a better family."
"But he can't impose his own debts on others. Isn't this forcing others to do something difficult?"
"Don't worry about that. I've already told the current emperor a few things to let him temporarily dispel his doubts. After all, Mu Yuan hasn't agreed yet, so he hastily arranged a match. According to Mu Yuan's temper, he is simply causing trouble."
"I deeply agree! When the time comes, if the emperor mentions it, I will sternly refuse it."
"Just refuse it! You are just a demon hunter from the Demon Slaying Division, don't think too highly of yourself! This matter involves the reputation of the princess. Being so tough, there are unpredictable consequences."
Qin Gang warned again, "If you talk nonsense then, not only will your reward be gone, but you will also be punished for being disrespectful. Then everything will be helpless."
Li Huaiyun said hurriedly, "Don't worry! Don't worry! Sikyong, I am a smart person after all, and I won't do those unbelievable things."
"Since this imperial edict will probably come tomorrow! Then I'd better go back and recuperate, and wait for the arrival of this reward with peace of mind."
"Recuperate? How are you doing now?"
Li Huaiyun raised his hands and made a gesture to show off his biceps, "He has recovered well. It seems that in his current state, he can easily kill any kind of monster to a pulp."
During the days when he was in coma, his body was like a huge black hole, constantly sucking away all his essence and energy.
But the sacrifice of Narcissus allowed him to regain his Yang Yuan. This kind of loss and recovery made all the energy and energy he lost return to his body.
At this time, he also had some ideas for breaking through the Hedao realm.
He has discovered that his own Hedao realm is different from cultivation in the ordinary sense. Ordinary cultivation has no improvement effect.
On the contrary, you can practice better by using the inner strength and mental method of empathic gathering and enlightenment theory.
This means that in order to improve one's own abilities, it is even more important to improve this internal skill and mental method, and Jiaofangsi has become the best place for practice.
He was going to find Yilan and Snow Master.
Qin Gang pointed at Li Huaiyun, "Since you are recovering quickly now, then go to Tiehua Pavilion to help."
ah! Li Huaiyun frowned. Although he was seriously injured and couldn't get out of the line of fire, he felt like he was being fucked to death. It seemed like he was the only one in the Demon Slayer Division.
It was too bad for him to refuse in person, "Uh! Sikyong, what's going on? Has something happened again?"
Qin Gang said calmly, "That's natural. It never stops for a day. This is not the case with Liu Pingzhong. Recently, he stayed up all night for a case, but it was difficult to make any progress. Since your body is almost recovered, just go there directly. I'll look for him and help him solve the case."
"Oh! Another case of monsters causing trouble?"
"It should be! However, the people from the Demon Slayer Division have never had any encounter with that monster!"
"This...? There is no encounter, but it is very puzzling." Li Huaiyun shook his head helplessly, not knowing what he was talking about, "Do you know what kind of monster it is?"
"It is said that she is a bride wearing a red phoenix robe and a red hijab!"
"bride?"
Forehead! I haven't been given the reward for the last case, and now you want me to investigate other cases? I was still thinking about going to the Jiaofang Department to find them.
However, at this time, Qin Gang personally assigned the task, and as a member of the Demon Slayer Division, he had to take on it first no matter what.
Li Huaiyun clasped his fists and saluted, "I obey my orders! Go investigate the case immediately." He turned and left the room.
Late at night, midnight, south of Kyoto.
The streets that were usually crowded with people were already empty at this time. The breeze blew and brought up the dust, making the whole street look quite desolate.
On this street, many houses have lanterns made of bamboo and paper hanging in front of their doors. Candles are lit inside, and the long firelight illuminates several places on the street.
Traces such as vegetable leaves thrown on the ground, strings, and muddy footprints all illustrate the hustle and bustle of this street during the day.
The watchman walked on this deserted street, banging the gong in his hand from time to time, shouting at the top of his voice, telling the merchants living on the street the time of day, and reminding them to prevent fire and theft.
He had a nervous look on his face and looked around. His whole body felt a little chilly. Before that, many things had happened on this road, especially the watchmen who passed by. As far as he knew, there were several people.
The superiors said it was an accident, but he knew that it was definitely not an accident, because someone survived and loudly warned them to be careful about the bride with the red hijab! Don't talk to him, she's not human!
After that, the watchman was taken away and was guarded by special people.
This incident left a deep imprint in his mind, so he would be extra vigilant every night he was responsible for it.
The street was extremely quiet, like a cemetery in the dark night. The watchman walked on the empty street and could only hear his own footsteps and the sound of his heartbeat.
He took a deep breath and felt as if someone was nearby, watching him, which made people shudder.
The watchman beats the gong while walking and then shouts loudly to remind people to prevent fire and theft.
The rough sound broke the silence of the street.
The watchman had already reached the center of the street. When he passed a dark alley, a blurry figure suddenly flashed across his peripheral vision.
He immediately held his breath, struck the gong with shaking arms, and shouted loudly.
Then he walked forward as if nothing happened. He turned his head slightly and looked at the dark alley with his peripheral vision.
When the watchman looked over, he didn't see anything, which made his scalp tingle.
Because there was another watchman thing before, and besides many things on this street, there were some strange things happening at this moment, which made him even more scared.
He murmured in his heart that the figure he saw just now was really a bride wearing a red wedding dress and a hijab, wandering in the alley?
At this time, his heart was beating violently, and he remembered what the man said, not to talk to the bride, because there was not a human face under the hijab.
Could it be that this matter really happened to him? At this moment, a large amount of sweat broke out on the forehead of the watchman, and his back felt cold.
He knocked harder and faster, and his voice lost any rhythm! When he passed another alley, he saw another figure standing at the entrance of the alley!
The watchman took another look out of the corner of his eye and felt that just like before, he might have been too preoccupied. However, what frightened him was that there was a real human figure at the entrance of the alley, and under the illumination of the lantern, that The red hijab looks even more blood red.
He turned a blind eye and began to quicken his pace and run forward.
It's actually true! That guy didn't lie, there really was a bride in red!
The watchman's heart became more and more frightened, and he looked straight ahead, not daring to look aside at all.
He could only walk forward numbly, keep walking, and walk out of this frightening street.
But this street seems to have become very long, so long that it has no end. Even if my feet are numb when walking, I can't walk to the end. It seems to be still in the same place.
The surrounding scenes don't seem to be repeated, but there is only a red figure in the alley on one side! The bright red phoenix robe and hijab were as red as blood.
The watchman was almost crying. When he was panting from exhaustion, he stopped directly at the entrance of the alley.
He gritted his teeth and looked to the side, only to find that there was nothing in the dark alley.
He took a deep breath and rubbed his eyes. It seemed that he didn't get enough rest and was too tired, so he had hallucinations.
"Official!"
