It was night, and there was a roaring wind in Nanyang City.
A large number of mirror guards gathered urgently and ran like flying in the streets.
Li Xiaozhu followed closely behind Team Zheng and went to surround the kidnapping dens everywhere. His face turned red with excitement along the way. The experience of almost being killed just now did not affect my mood at all.
This is her first mission since becoming a Mirror Guard!
Traveling through the city at night, coming and going like the wind, killing bad guys one after another, just like a ranger like my brother.
She joined the Mirror Guard just to live such a life.
Unfortunately, Li Xiaozhu's dream life only lasted one night.
The next morning, when the flag guards closed in, she was called over by the guard and scolded for nearly half an hour.
Then I "harvested" three large boxes of files, enough to keep me busy for several months.
In addition, as a punishment for violating the regulations, she has to be on duty frequently during the six months. During this period, she can only live in a public house and is not allowed to go out privately.
Li Xiaozhu was so scolded that he felt dizzy. He hugged the file in a panic and stood in front of the team.
But my mood was not as angry as before when I was scolded. Instead, I was a little happy.
It turns out that Duan Zheng is also a good person.
It seemed like he was making things difficult for her like other colleagues, but in fact he was protecting her from being attacked when she went out.
Given the rampant behavior of those lackeys of the Deng Mansion, if it had not been for the team leader, Li Xiaozhu would have probably been killed while on a mission.
Who could have imagined that Mr. Deng was already so lawless.
Li Xiaozhu felt happy but also a little gloomy.
When the team was tired from scolding and drinking tea to quench their thirst, she asked cautiously:
"Sir, Captain, a few of the Deng Mansion's lackeys escaped last night...could it be a hidden danger?"
Unexpectedly, when Captain heard this, he became angry again, gripped the teacup hard, stared at her and said:
"roll!"
"oh."
Li Xiaozhu ran away in despair.
When she returned to her seat, her colleagues around her still had a bad look on her face, but she didn't care at all and just went about her business with peace of mind.
Since she can't go on a mission in the short term, she should focus on her cultivation and advance to the third level of Qi Refining as soon as possible. Then we'll see who dares to block her in the street.
Li Xiaozhu finally felt that such a life was quite promising.
…
Three days later, the team was out investigating the case. In the evening, they were carried back on a stretcher.
His chest suffered a heavy blow, and a large piece of it was dented. Several ribs were broken and almost inserted into the ventricle. The forest-white bone stubble was exposed, looking ferocious and terrifying.
With such an injury, an ordinary person would have died long ago.
The team relied on the strong physique of the second-level physical trainers to survive tenaciously. At this moment, they gritted their teeth and tried their best to stay awake.
"How could this happen?" Li Xiaozhu rushed over. Seeing such a tragic situation, his face turned pale, and it was difficult to accept the reality for a while.
A colleague glanced at her with complicated eyes, "What do you think?"
"I——" Li Xiaozhu's body trembled suddenly.
Deng Mansion, Mr. Deng!
"Come here." Captain Zheng motioned for the little girl to come up, opened his mouth with difficulty, and whispered:
"While I am recuperating, you need to be careful. Just stay in the yamen and don't go out."
"There is a transfer order in the drawer. Take it. If you feel something is wrong, immediately flee to Xingyang City and leave secretly."
After saying the last sentence, he couldn't hold on any longer, closed his eyes and fainted.
Holding the captain's hand tightly, Li Xiaozhu nodded vigorously, tears streaming down his face.
…
Beishan, in front of the willow forest.
Zhu An sent out a ray of spiritual thought and was accompanying Wanwan, Hongyun and the chipmunk squirrel, watching them move around desperately against the whipping of the wicker.
Figures of various colors were shaking rapidly, including black and white, maroon with brown and white stripes, and bright red like fire.
With three little guys raised in the mountains, it is obviously more lively and feels pretty good.
Beishan used to be too cold.
Snapped!
Wanwan and Hongyun were hit almost at the same time and were swept away, lying on the ground trembling.
Before he could recover, he suddenly heard Beishan Zhizhu’s sigh:
"Some people's lives are really troubled."
Maruwan and Hongyun looked at each other in confusion, human? That's not what I should be talking about.
"The weaker the existence, the more uncertain life is. Any setback may turn into an unbearable disaster."
This time Zhu An said to the two little guys, "So, let's work hard to become stronger."
Red Fox Hongyun nodded obediently, fully understanding this.
Before coming to Beishan, it was a little fox demon at the bottom of the demon clan. It couldn't even defeat many wild beasts. You must be alert to any disturbance in the surrounding area, because it may be a fatal threat.
One of its elders died at the claws of other demon clan before he had a chance to see Beishan Zhizhu.
Marumaru thought, but was a little confused, "How strong is considered strong?"
"My mother was also very strong, but she still died in the end."
"The ancestor of our iron-eating clan is said to be countless times more powerful than my mother, but why did he also die?"
This is a good question. Zhu An was silent for a long time and did not give an answer.
After thousands of years of practice, he has been getting stronger, but as his horizons broadened, the world he saw became larger and larger, and he discovered more and more dangers.
Am I strong enough now?
Zhu An can’t guarantee it either.
Therefore, as before, he remained as cautious as possible and lived in seclusion in the depths of Beishan in a low-key manner.
In front of the willow forest, the atmosphere was quiet for a long time, and Marumaru thought that the spirit of Kitayama Nozhu had gone.
Suddenly, the calm and gentle voice sounded in my ears again:
"We will only know the answer to this question when the crisis actually comes."
“But before that, the preparations that need to be made still need to be made.”
"When one day, you are prepared enough, you will find that even if the whole world is against you, you can still cope with it."
"By then, it should be almost done."
"Ah?" Wanwan shook his dark ears and couldn't help but doubted: "This is too exaggerated. It can rival the entire world. How long will it take to practice?"
Exaggeration? Zhu An smiled and said nothing more.
In the sky, layers of white clouds spread out like brocade, once again covering this secluded mountain...
