Department of Demon Suppression.
Jiang Changkong sat at the front seat, listening to Xu Rui's report.
"Sir, something must have happened to the Taihe Gang."
Xu Rui said with a serious face.
"The Taihe Gang is now heavily guarded, and our people are also blocked by the people from the City Lord's Mansion and cannot enter..."
Having said this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Changkong.
Seeing that Jiang Changkong didn't speak, he didn't even have an expression. His face was very calm, as if this matter had nothing to do with the Demon Suppression Division.
Xu Rui was secretly surprised.
But after thinking about it, I somewhat "understood" Jiang Changkong's attitude.
The city lord's palace has a close relationship with the prime minister, general and others in Kyoto. There is no need to confront them head-on when there are no particularly major problems.
Everyone ends up unhappy, which is not beautiful.
The previous Zitianwei also operated in this way, so everyone in Yunshui County has always been in peace.
If he didn't understand it before, he was so passionate about slaying demons and defending justice that he couldn't even hold a grain of sand in his eyes.
But since I became the leader, I had to deal with many high-level officials when solving a series of problems, and then I realized how troublesome and difficult it was.
Sometimes, because the relationship is not in place, the other party will just put your matter on hold and make you wait, and tell you with a serious face that they have been urging you to handle the matter.
There's nothing you can do about it.
Therefore, only those who are on the same page can happily make things smooth.
Hello, hello, everyone... This is the way to be an official.
Fighting alone, no matter how warm your blood is, it will eventually cool down and become ice cold.
Although Xu Rui "understood", he still had to ask. After all, the Zitianwei in front of him was in charge of the work now.
"Sir, if the Taihe Gang is so tight, something big must have happened. Do we need to use an emergency order to force our way in?"
Jiang Changkong said calmly: "No need, let's wait for the news from the City Lord's Mansion."
"The last time I got together with the City Lord, everyone said that they would work closely with our Demon Suppression Division."
"If there is any news over there, I believe they will notify us as soon as possible."
"You continue to investigate Qiling."
Xu Rui cupped his fists and said, "Yes, sir."
Then left.
Jiang Changkong did not practice.
He is not in a hurry to improve his level now.
In fact, he hopes that the realm is as low as possible, so that it will be more helpful to the improvement of the physical body.
It's a pity that once the realm is improved, it cannot be lowered unless it is from the sea of exhaustion.
But that's not possible.
Of course, this does not mean that not improving the realm means that the strength will not improve.
He is now practicing the Immortal Sword Body to improve his strength, and the improvement is not weaker than the improvement of his realm.
Once you successfully cultivate the Immortal Sword Body, your strength will increase several times from the original level.
What's more important is that it will directly help the later stages.
When the time comes, he will be able to soar into the sky.
Whether you can succeed in cultivation depends on this.
After Xu Rui left, he began to carefully study all the details that needed to be paid attention to in practicing the immortal sword body.
…
night.
Jiang Changkong appeared on the street wearing a blue robe and a new human skin mask on his face.
He looks like a handsome young man.
This mask was bought on the black market in Yunshui County.
The mask is very delicately made, and even the expressions can be perfectly expressed.
Therefore, he bought a dozen of these different-looking human skin masks at once.
It was expensive, costing him more than two thousand taels of silver.
But he felt it was money well spent.
Sometimes it's not convenient to reveal your identity, so you have to use this.
Such as now.
Jiang Changkong put his hands behind his back and wandered slowly on the street with the flow of people.
But the sword intent at this moment spread out like water, and it appeared in his mind every detail within a radius of 500 meters.
In the blink of an eye, we arrived at Zunlefang, the largest gold-selling cave in Yunshui County.
Zunlefang is located on the bank of Yunshui Lake.
Rows of exquisite buildings stand on the bank of Yunshui Lake, with a steady flow of people.
The coquettish laughter of prostitutes, the cries of salesmen, and the loud and bold voices of men who make money during the day and come to show off at night.
As well as the bohemian sounds of drinking and guessing by some charlatans.
Painted boats are reflected in the rippling blue water of the lake.
The top spots are basically on each boat.
There is an oiran sitting in every painted boat, attracting many men to go there.
Of course, a lot of money is spent on the boat.
Not only are drinks expensive, women are even more expensive.
In particular, the prices of the three major boats, Ziwei, Hanyue and Dragon and Phoenix, are even higher. The three top courtesans of Zunlefang are in these three boats.
It is said that the three major painting boats charge one hundred taels of silver per stick of incense. It is not a big deal to spend hundreds of taels of silver in one night.
Not to mention there are rewards, tips and other things are calculated separately.
But even so, many wealthy men still line up to go there, flocking to it.
And I came not just once or twice, but many times, and I still want to go in and have a kiss.
Jiang Changkong was also very curious.
What kind of woman can attract so many people?
So, he was going to take a look.
Yunshui Lake is very big, but these boats are not too far from the shore.
The sword intention should be felt.
"Hahaha, it's over with Ziwei, it's my turn!"
By the lake, a fat man dressed as a wealthy businessman shouted excitedly without any manners.
While shouting, he also waved his hands to signal the watercraft that was about to dock.
"Hey, Boss Wang, don't squeeze, don't squeeze, I'm still in front of you." Another thin man wearing a uniform called out quickly.
The fat man's eyes widened and he said: "What the hell, I've already spent money to buy your Xu Yuanchong's ranking, and you're behind me now!"
"Ah? When did this happen?"
Xu Yuanwai was shocked and said.
"Don't be so pretentious. The three hundred taels of silver you just put in your pocket were brought by the strong wind!"
Fatty Wang said angrily.
"I won't admit it! It's my turn now!"
Xu Yuanwai pinched his neck and shouted.
"Xu Yuanchong, you only have so much potential!"
Fatty Wang said with a look of disdain, "Don't think it's okay if you don't admit it. The money was given to you by Old Turtle, not me. Do you believe that if you don't admit it again, someone will throw you into the lake?"
After saying that, he pulled Xu Yuanwai's thin body over, forced his chubby body through, and boarded the watership.
Among the crowd, Jiang Changkong's heart moved.
This small boat, which can carry seven or eight people, is bound for Ziwei Huafang.
He just failed to find the Ziwei Painted Boat with his sword intention, which shows that the Ziwei Painted Boat is far away from the shore.
At this time, Fatty Wang was already urging several boatmen, "Hurry up, hurry up, get there early, everyone will get a reward if you turn around!"
"Okay, Master!"
A group of boatmen were overjoyed. They like to meet this kind of owner who is not interested in money and is very generous.
Four people, two on each side.
"Master, sit still!"
As they spoke, the four people quickly started rowing, and the boat seemed to be flying, quickly flying towards the center of the lake.
At this moment, a handsome young man wearing a blue robe flew from the shore towards the speeding spaceship.
