Lin Ji was a little surprised when he heard Gao Ling's inquiry.
It had been a month since he left the capital, and the Supervisor Tiansi had already released the news that he had been promoted to the governor of Weizhou Town. Why didn't the news go away as quickly as others?
"You don't know yet?" Lin Ji smiled, lifted the hem of his clothes, and revealed his token.
Seeing the town order, Gao Ling was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Master Lin is the new town official sent to Weizhou?"
Seeing Lin Ji nod, Gao Ling's face suddenly showed a somewhat excited smile.
He had participated in a lot of things in Victoria, and he was naturally more familiar with Lin Ji than others.
"Mr. Lin, when you left Weizhou, Master Ziqing often talked about you." Gao Ling said, "Unfortunately, Master Ziqing left later, and several fifth-level commanders in the government office You Xing I haven't seen anyone for three days, and the news in the government office has been blocked."
"Thank you for your hard work." Lin Ji patted Gao Ling on the shoulder.
He could imagine what a difficult situation it would be for the huge Weizhou government office to have only one chief arrester from the Fourth Realm to support the scene.
No one would take him seriously.
At this moment, the fat-haired and pink-faced boy who was tied up next to him suddenly laughed out loud.
"Hahaha, is he the new town official? Has his hair grown? There really is no one left in the Supervisory Office."
"Shut up!" Gao Ling scolded with a cold expression.
But Youtou Nianmian didn't care at all. Instead, he looked at Lin Ji provocatively.
Lin Ji also became interested.
After so many years of working as a clerk in Supervisor Tiansi, this was the first time he had seen someone so arrogant after being arrested.
"Gao Ling, what has this kid committed?"
"My lord, his name is Huang Xiong, and he is from the Huang family in Victoria." Gao Ling said.
Lin Ji raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "The Huang family that uses poison?"
"That's right." Gao Ling nodded, "He was seeking pleasure in the Jade City, but he used poison on the girls in the brothel, killing several of them. After he was discovered, he even injured two of his fellow demon hunters."
"Tch, it's just a few lowly prostitutes who died. How dare you do anything to me?" Huang Xiong said disdainfully, "Lin, you'd better let me go quickly, or wait until my father finds out about this." Nothing, none of you can escape."
Hearing this, Lin Ji asked curiously: "Why, do you, the Huang family, dare to go against Jian Tiansi?"
"So what about Supervisor Tiansi, this is Weizhou!" Huang Xiong said.
Lin Ji didn't know the situation in Weizhou, so he didn't speak in a hurry, but looked at Lianyu standing aside.
"Lianyu, you go to the carriage and have a rest. I'll talk to Mr. Gao about something."
Lianyu's face looked a little ugly. She was born as a despicable prostitute in Huang Xiong's words. When she heard Huang Xiong's disdainful tone, she naturally felt uncomfortable.
Lin Ji also saw this and wanted to send her away.
"Don't take it too seriously, just rest early." Lin Ji comforted.
"Yes, Master." Lianyu responded.
But after hearing the conversation between Lin Ji and Lianyu, Huang Xiong rolled his eyes and figured out the reason.
"Hey, the town official is accompanied by a prostitute and maid. Why can't he bear the loneliness along the way? Hahaha, it turns out that he is also from my generation! Brother, I..."
Snapped!
Before Huang Xiong could finish speaking, Lin Ji's slap had already fallen.
Huang Xiong was seen flying seven or eight meters away. When he was helped back to the original place by the demon hunters, the right side of his face had completely swollen and most of the teeth in his mouth were missing.
"It's full of shit." Lin Ji's face turned cold.
"How dare you hit me? Believe it or not, I will let you..."
"Let your elders come to trouble me? Lin is waiting."
Lin Ji casually grabbed a handful of dirt and stuffed it into Huang Xiong's toothless mouth. He ignored his pain and turned to look at Gao Ling.
"Let's talk about the current situation in Victoria. Let's see how capable the Huang family is. Even Supervisor Tiansi dares to look down on it."
Gao Ling felt a little relieved when he saw Huang Xiong's fate.
"Since the Tantric Sect was destroyed, Weizhou was still stable at first when Master Ziqing was still there. However, Master Ziqing was the Youtianguan and was transferred away not long after. Since then, Victoria has been in chaos. .”
"What kind of chaos?"
"Everything is waiting for improvement. Various forces that were originally suppressed by the Tantric Sect have emerged, with three families being the most important."
Gao Ling sighed softly: "Jingang Temple, Tianluo Sect and the Huang family where this kid lives."
Having said this, Gao Ling looked up at Lin Ji, with a bit of bitterness on his face.
"Because the Supervisor Tiansi is weak, these three forces have no restraint, so they become more and more unscrupulous... At the time, there were many treasures in the tantric temples in various parts of Victoria that had not yet been counted. These forces were under the control of Master Zi Qing. After I left, I dared to steal it openly."
Lin Ji narrowed his eyes slightly.
"When the Tantric Sect was destroyed, I don't remember these forces sending any manpower. It was monks from all over the Kyushu who came to support us."
"Hey." Gao Ling sighed, "At first they were just testing. After they found that Supervisor Tiansi really couldn't control them, wherever there is oil and water, there are three of them."
"It's not that they won't be allowed to develop their power. Supervisor Tiansi has never cared about the so-called oil, water, benefits, etc. It's just that they act too domineeringly and often hurt people's lives. They seem to be the only ones in Victoria."
"Nowadays, many major and serious cases have been accumulated in the government office, including some that are outrageous and resentful. The murderers behind them are probably various factions in Victoria, among which these three are the most important."
Lin Ji heard the anger and helplessness in Gao Ling's tone.
"Haha, maybe they have been suppressed by the Tantric Sect for too long, and they are useless and have no ability to deal with the Tantric Sect. Now that the mountain above them is gone, they can take a breather after a long time."
"This is not just a breather, this is life-threatening." Gao Ling frowned and said, "Nowadays, there are complaints all over Victoria. Not only the common people, but also the monks who have no roots, most of them are miserable."
Lin Ji waved his hand.
"Whether it's a matter of gasping for breath or life-threatening, I'll let them give an explanation."
As he spoke, Lin Ji's eyes fell on Huang Xiong again.
He would not believe everything Gao Ling said, and he also knew that nothing could be generalized.
He had only heard the news briefly at this time, but when he actually went to Yucheng, he would have to learn more about it.
But he wouldn't disbelieve it. After all, he could already see some clues from Huang Xiong's performance just now.
A junior of the Huang family in the fourth realm dared to yell at the chief arrester of Supervisor Tiansi like this. Even he, a town official, dared not to look down upon him.
Either he is a brainless villain, a typical playboy with no brain at all.
Either that or he really doesn't take the Supervisor Tiansi in Victoria seriously.
But no matter which one it is, it doesn't really matter.
Lin Ji's eyes fell on Huang Xiong.
"Boy, have you ever heard of the story of killing a chicken to scare a monkey?"
