Unknowingly, the cold winter lunar month has arrived.
Li Fan rode his horse to Beiya. Along the way, he happened to see several corpse collectors carrying a frozen zombie body from the corner of the street and placing it on a wooden cart and stacking it with other corpses.
Several corpses were stacked on top of each other, seemingly crowded on the narrow wooden board, as if this was how they could get some warmth.
"There seem to be more roads on the street recently."
Li Fan glanced at it, thoughtfully.
The department previously said that strict precautions should be taken, but now it seems that it is indeed worthy of attention.
When a person is on the verge of death, his emotions are intense, and he is more likely to attract strange attachments, which can directly turn him into a demon.
There is also the Gu Heart Demon Cult secretly instigating to cause more chaos, which will definitely make things worse.
When we arrived at Beiya, a group of people were extremely busy, and everyone was mobilizing up and down.
Li Fan went to the official office to check the files and found that several strange incidents had occurred recently, but they had all been controlled in time.
Not all weird incidents will cause death. It can even be said that most of them are just frightening. Even among strange incidents, they are low-risk.
These are suitable for newcomers who have just entered the Demon Suppression Division to practice.
However, once it reaches the stage of killing people, it means that the strange power has enough rules to kill people, and it will definitely not just kill one person.
At this time, it is necessary to determine the priority according to the harm and deal with it.
There are some situations that have accumulated some time ago and have not yet been resolved.
During this period, Li Chuan also heard some complaints.
"These refugees really don't make people worry even if they die!"
"Rather than die peacefully and starve, follow the example of the Flying-Armed Praying Mantis...won't this cause us trouble?"
"There has been no rest for a month. When can we recruit people again?"
"These days are really difficult. I am so tired that I can hardly even lift a pen..."
The headquarters is the central department of Daqian's demon-suppressing people. The events that need to be dealt with include the long-standing and difficult-to-handle reports reported by all parties. Most of them are difficult to solve and can only be controlled temporarily.
Li Fan has also focused on this aspect recently, because some of the incidents that have been brewing for many years are showing signs of spreading and harming surrounding cities.
These were originally existences similar to the Yinshan Demon Cave Eucalyptus. The location of the incident was extremely remote. No matter how dangerous the strange power was, it did not cause much harm.
However, once it is exploited by someone with intentions, it will turn into a man-made disaster.
Or maybe some weirdness in the mountains and swamps transforms tigers, pythons and other ferocious beasts into evil spirits, which may endanger thousands of miles in radius.
In fact, Li Fan worked at Lantai Office in the past and was more or less familiar with various documents. However, most of the secret files he looked at had been filed away and even completely closed.
Now that I am seconded to Disha Hall and see more first-hand information, I realize that more of the wording is unclear and unclear.
Many strange events begin with some rumors, which are passed down from word of mouth by those who encounter them, and it is difficult to tell whether they are true or false.
It's no wonder that everyone in the Demon Suppressing Division is miserable about this.
At this moment, a clerk suddenly walked out of the door and said to Li Fan: "Master Li, there is an adult outside who says he is your friend. Do you want to bring him in?"...
"Oh? Did he tell me his name?"
"He said his name was Zhong Feng."
Li Chuan was surprised.
This was his best friend before he became a stranger.
But to be honest, after becoming a stranger and joining the Demon Suppression Division, I had less contact with him.
Firstly, I often practice martial arts and go to the Yamen, but I really can't take care of it. Secondly, strangers are easily affected by strange forces. If I go out for a drink, I have to die to help the fun, which is not very auspicious.
He walked out and saw a fat man with fine features sitting in the hall drinking tea. He was Zhong Feng, the son of Anding Hou Zhonggu.
He is still in the past
That fat look, but I don't know if it's an illusion, actually gives people the illusion of being powerful.
However, Li Fan soon discovered that this was not an illusion, but a strange force at work.
As the True Eye appeared in the void above him, quietly observing from an angle that Zhong Feng couldn't notice, several lines of handwriting made of pale firelight appeared, highlighting Zhong Feng's current state.
"The Stranger (Zhong Feng)"
"Exotic treasure (medicine scale)"
"Can exchange one's own flesh and blood for target body organs"
"Every time you use it, the exchange ratio will increase."
With just one glance, he understood that Anding Hou Zhonggu had found a rare treasure for him.
A rare treasure like this may not be very useful against evil spirits, but it is a surefire weapon against strangers.
Because most aliens do not have extraordinary bodies, even if they have some conveniences that can survive when their lives are in danger due to the influence of strange powers, they can still withstand the loss of organs such as the heart or brain.
Unless you meet a top master who can use the power of treachery for protection, or even hide in the treacherous realm to avoid becoming a target.
Since the Dharma-Peeping Eye had escaped into the void of the treacherous realm, it was difficult for Li Chuan to observe clearly and carefully, so he probably couldn't analyze much after just a quick glance, but he still thought of ways to deal with this method out of habit.
It turns out that it is indeed difficult for ordinary aliens to prevent this ability.
Zhong Feng didn't know that Li Fan had seen through him, so he said proudly: "Brother Shu, you can't guess why I came here."
"Isn't it just to become a stranger and be recruited into the Demon Suppression Department?"
Zhong Feng was startled, and his eyes, which were small due to his obesity, blinked repeatedly.
"It's really boring. I originally wanted to give you a surprise. Forget it, to tell you the truth, I am now serving in the Law Enforcement Hall, but because I have not yet reached the title, I have to start from a small clerical job, which is really boring.
The only consolation is that people like us, who work directly for our uncle together with several other senior officials, should also be able to participate in some confidential meetings and understand the department's decisions. "
Li Fan understood immediately upon hearing this that Marquis Anding was paving the way for him.
Not everyone has the same inheritance of exotic treasures as their own family. It is not easy for Zhong Gu to want Zhong Feng to grow up and take the lead on his own.
So it is most reasonable to be exposed to high-level confidential matters from the very beginning and cultivate overall awareness and high-level thinking.
"I didn't expect to meet you here. Didn't I say that you were doing a good job at Lantai Institute? How come you came here instead of being on duty at the Yamen in the Imperial City?"
The information Zhong Feng received was obviously a little behind, so he couldn't help but ask him.
Li Chuan said: "I am currently seconded by Disha Hall and will serve here temporarily."
Zhong Feng said clearly: "It seems that you will be successful soon. I really envy you. But it's okay. You may come to the law enforcement hall when you come to the law enforcement hall. Maybe we two brothers can work together." .”
