They all manage the courtyard and the study.
"Fellow Daoist Yunlei, why are you in such a hurry?"
Han Chen met the two of them in person for the first time. When he saw Chu Chen, he was quite surprised and joked with a smile:
"Counsellor Zhenyi, you have gone and come back. Could it be that there are clues to the case you are responsible for, and a big figure from the Demon Alliance is implicated?"
For more than a month, Chu Chen was running errands in the Du Guan Courtyard, responsible for the Chinese documents of the courtyard. Chu Chen had no chance to do serious things, but he became closer to the Du Guan Han Chen.
Especially after the Dragon Palace Banquet, Han Chen admired him more and more, and he was quite easy-going in private.
Chu Chen smiled bitterly:
"No matter what, the Zhaojiazhuang case has indeed made progress, but it seems to be getting bigger..."
Soon, Chu Chen briefly described the case.
Taoist Yunlei answered:
"Fellow Daoist Han, this case is not simple. The demon skills practiced by the second son of the Zhao family seem to be related to dreams and nightmares. If he is allowed to gather the foundation of the ultimate demon, he may become a peerless demon in the future, which will be extremely harmful."
"I just went to see Zhao Qingge. The sleeping bug spirit in her body has been consumed. Based on what Zhenyi said, the chance for that person to gather the foundation of the ultimate demonic path is only these two days."
After listening to the case report, Du Guan Han Chen's smile faded away, revealing a solemn expression.
Soon, the two managers began to discuss whether to let Zhao Qingge continue to stay in the Zhao family and use her as bait to ambush Zhao Lao Er.
However, both Han Chen and Master Yunlei gave up after a short discussion.
The reason was that he didn't know enough about Uncle Zhao's magical power, so he chose a conservative plan to ensure that the other party could not gather the ultimate foundation of magic as the first priority.
The Yamen of the County Ghosts and Gods Department and the Yamen of the County Government are all places where the righteous energy of heaven and earth gathers, and where demons and evil spirits are forbidden.
The Zhao Mansion is not in such a good position. It can only rely on its own magical power to fight against the devil. If someone quietly invades Zhao Qingge's dreamland and steals the sleeping insects, it will be a big mistake.
Master Boyunlei Taoist is quite confident in dealing with nightmare spells and supernatural powers, but this time he did not guarantee everything.
Chu Chen still had a superficial understanding of [Hidden Dragon Transformation into Nightmare Technique], and he did not express any random opinions.
After Han Chen, the governor, straightened out the case, he immediately ordered:
"This case is indeed not simple. It is important to be careful in everything. Fellow Taoist Yunlei, you have the magical power to interpret nightmares. If you have nothing to do in the past two days, you will personally protect the Zhao family girl."
"As you command!"
Taoist Yunlei accepted the order happily and did not feel that it was making a fuss.
The reason why countless people are flocking to the demonic arts is because most of the demonic arts are known for their viciousness, domineering, and rapid growth. If you are not careful, a demon will grow up quietly.
Han Chen nodded slightly, then his eyes fell on Chu Chen again, with another smile on his face.
He is indeed my "lucky general".
If Chu Chen hadn't stopped Zhao Er in time and allowed the other party to gather the ultimate foundation of the devil's path, it would have been troublesome.
Not long after he took over as Du Guan, a big demon appeared under his rule who endangered the whole party. How would he explain to the Immortal Court and how to explain to the people of the whole county.
"Counsellor Chu, you are insightful and decisive. You have done a good job in this job. You are born to be in charge!"
Han Chen did not hesitate to praise him.
Taoist Yunlei listened to Han Chen's praise of his nephew, his face was full of smiles, and he felt proud.
Chu Chen was also quite happy.
What does it mean to be in charge of everything? This is a very obvious hint.
He had just entered the Seventh Rank Daoxing and met the basic conditions for being appointed as a county governor. However, whether he could be promoted to a foreigner or not, the attitude of the county governor was very important.
Although Du Guan Han Chen admired him, he was not at ease in handing over the ghost and god affairs of the county to him casually.
Just like Master Boyunlei is worried about Senior Brother Zhenqing.
Only by constantly demonstrating his abilities will the governor be able to trust him with the affairs of demons and gods in the county.
Although Chu Chen was overjoyed, he was not too excited, nor did he forget about the achievements of Qian Sangua and Xuan Lingzi, and took all the credit as his own.
"It's all over the reputation. I just happened to meet him at the right time. Taoist fellows San Gua and Xuan Lingzi made great achievements. Xuan Lingzi captured the other party's aura, and San Gua Taoist even predicted that the Zhao family members would turn against each other. ..”
...
The next day.
Chu Chen did not return to Yunshui Residence last night, but stayed at the County Ghosts and Gods Office to protect Zhao Qingge with Master Boyunlei.
as expected.
Uncle Zhao did not dare to use the [Nightmare Dragon] magical power to invade the dream of Zhao Qingge who was in the County Ghost and God Department.
Wang Ping, Qian Sangua, Xuan Lingzi, and little monk Yuantong came soon to take charge of the courtyard.
Obviously, the four people learned in advance that the circumstances of the "Zhaojiazhuang" case had changed.
"Brother Chu, you are so uninterested. You went to see Sleeping Beauty by yourself without taking me with you. You also solved this difficult case by the way, and you took all the good things."
Wang Ping was in charge of a meeting room in the courtyard, and he was so carefree that his voice came from far away.
Chu Chen smiled: "My Chen family and Zhao family are family friends, so I naturally have to go over and have a look. There will be progress in the case this time. Speaking of which, it is all thanks to Taoist friends Sangua and Xuanlingzi..."
Chu Chen quite recognized the contributions of Xuan Lingzi and Qian Sangua and was full of praise.
Xuan Lingzi had an arrogant and cold temperament and praised him for his great achievements, but he was expressionless and looked down upon everything with a "master's demeanor".
However, Chu Chen could tell that Xuan Lingzi was still quite content and happy.
"Did you see that I told you that the hexagram I made that day was a divine hexagram and it was very accurate? You didn't believe it, but now you do?"
Qian Sangua had the biggest reaction and was finally proud.
"Brother Chu still understands me."
Wang Ping and the young monk Yuantong laughed sarcastically. They really didn't believe it before and believed that the third hexagram of Qian was the black hexagram.
"Brother San Gua, your three hexagrams are so accurate. Your skills are all in the three hexagrams. Then the hexagrams other than the three hexagrams every day... aren't they all black hexagrams?"
Qian Sangua's face collapsed:
"How can this... fortune teller's affairs be called black fortune..."
...
Two days passed quickly.
Chu Chen greeted his master, Taoist Xu Ping, and stayed with his master, Taoist Boyunlei, for the past two days to protect Zhao Qingge.
Two days later, the sleeping bug's spiritual energy in Zhao Qingge's body was consumed, and he was no different from an ordinary person.
Second Uncle Zhao remained indifferent.
Obviously, the other party also knew very well that there was little hope of success in invading the County Ghosts and Gods Division Yamen thieves with magical powers, so the efforts were not in vain.
"Erlang, thank you very much for this time."
In a clean courtyard of the County Ghost and God's Office, the head of the Zhao family took his daughter Zhao Qingge to thank Chu Chen.
Zhao Qingge, who was so soft and weak that I felt pity for him, also bowed slightly and saluted Chu Chen:
"Thank you, Brother Erlang, for saving your life."
"No need to be polite."
Chu Chen's expression was complicated. The sleeping bug spirit that had troubled Zhao Qingge for many years was gone. She was completely reduced to an ordinary ordinary woman, and there was no possibility of practicing Taoism.
I don’t know if it’s good or bad.
Perhaps, it was also a good thing for Zhao Qingge. Although she lost a little life span and became a generation weaker, she could finally live a normal life.
The head of the Zhao family and Zhao Qingge may have thought so too. When they left the Guishensi Yamen of the County, they were not too sad, but full of longing for a new life and a new beginning.
As Zhao Qingge's sleeping insect's spirituality withered, Uncle Zhao's dream of consolidating the foundation of the ultimate demonic path was shattered, and Chu Chen gained a lot of merit as a result.
Gongxing increased by a full twenty levels at once.
The meritorious deeds suddenly reached one hundred and seventy-seven.
Chu Chen was quite surprised. This was the first time that he had achieved so many meritorious deeds.
In addition to the skyrocketing increase in merit by twenty levels, a spell also appeared in the Heart Temple - [Anti-Nightmare].
This spell also comes from the master's secret book [Dijinji].
As the name suggests, this spell is used to kill nightmares and eliminate unknown magical powers.
Right now, it comes in handy.
