The fight between Xiao Qingji and his friends this time aroused the vigilance of the group of unknown persons.
Fortunately, the fight between the Qingji group was not in the guest room next door, but on the street outside the inn. Although they were discovered, it did not arouse suspicion.
These few people have been in Mianyuan County for some time, and they know that the night watchman has raised a group of Qingji, and let these elves help patrol the streets.
So when they saw several Qingjis fighting with each other on the street, they thought it was because these little guys had conflicts during the patrol and started fighting each other.
There was no doubt that this matter had anything to do with them.
What's more, he didn't expect that in addition to the group of Qingjis on the street, there were also several Qingjis hiding in the inn, staring at them secretly without blinking.
These people also know something about Qingji.
Because of this, they did not think that in this world, anyone would send Qingji to perform surveillance missions.
Can such a silly roe deer-like elf be able to do surveillance work? I'm afraid it won't be exposed in an instant!
No matter how stupid the night watchmen from the Mianyuan County Demon Division are, they will not send Qing Ji to perform surveillance tasks. Doesn't that mean they are telling the people being watched that they are being watched?
But these people never expected that someone actually sent Qingji to monitor them, and although they discovered something, they did not become suspicious.
It has to be said that in this operation, Zhu Xiucai was in the upper reaches of the atmosphere and accurately predicted all the thoughts of these people.
On the other side, Qin Shaoyou and others finally returned to the Yamen of the Demon Suppression Division after passing through the crowded crowd.
However, the people did not leave in a hurry. Instead, they continued to stay outside, watching the excitement, or showing off to each other that they had touched Lord Qin's umbrella, received Lord Cui's blessing, etc.
Because there were so many people gathered here, some small merchants and hawkers walking in the streets were also attracted. They carried burdens and hawked goods on the streets outside the Zhenyao Si Yamen. The business was actually quite good.
As a result, more small merchants and hawkers were attracted, and they set up stalls outside Zhenyaosi Yamen, hawking sales and soliciting customers.
Later, some people who traveled around the country and made a living as entertainers were also attracted.
Outside the Yamen of the Demon Suppression Department, they performed tricks such as smashing large rocks on the chest and locking the throat with a golden gun, which attracted bursts of cheers from the people and also attracted some people who had left back.
Even the farmers outside the county town heard that there was a temporary market in the city and it was very lively. They hurried over with help from the old and the young to join in the fun.
In this world where entertainment is scarce, if you don't join in such a big excitement, you won't be able to get in the conversation when others start talking.
For a time, there was a lot of excitement outside the Yamen of the Demon Town, just like a temple fair during the New Year.
Qin Shaoyou and all the night watchmen liked this kind of excitement, so naturally they would not stop or drive them away. They even sent a few patrol officers with strong men to help maintain order.
Upon seeing this, An Mutong from the county government office next door quickly asked the government officials to go to the streets to help maintain order.
Not only that, he also personally moved out the chairs and stools and invited some elderly people with inconvenience to sit down, which attracted a lot of praises as "good official" and "honest official".
An Mutong tried his best to keep a straight face, and then he couldn't hold back his laughter, feeling happy in his heart.
But when he saw the Wanmin Umbrella brought back by Qin Shaoyou, the joy and pride in his heart suddenly disappeared.
With An Mutong's eyesight, he could naturally tell that the Wanmin Umbrella was genuine.
It was precisely because he recognized it that he was very envious.
"Shaoyou has his own Wanmin Umbrella, so I have to work hard."
After An Mutong encouraged himself in his heart, he worked harder and harder to be a people-friendly official and strive to receive a genuine Umbrella for the People when he leaves office.
At that time, there is no need to envy Qin Shaoyou, but he can still make Xue Qingshan envious with Qin Shaoyou.
In the Yamen of the Demon Suppression Division, Monk Ma, Shan Daonian and others immediately greeted Qin Shaoyou, cupped their hands and said, "Sir, welcome home. It's been a hard work on the patrol."
"It's our duty to protect the country and the people, so it won't be hard."
Qin Shaoyou replied with a smile, handed the war horse to the night watchman next to him, and then went to the lobby to burn incense on the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
This time, every time I go out to perform a mission, it is a necessary process after returning.
Not only was he thanking the Patriarch for his protection along the way, but he was also asking the Nine-Tian Demon Patriarch to test himself and see if he had brought back some dirty things that had not been discovered.
While burning incense, Qin Shaoyou thought of something and asked Monk Ma and Shan Daonian who were following him: "During the time I left, there was nothing unusual about the statue of the Patriarch, right?"
Monk Ma and Shan Daonian looked at each other and replied: "If you want to talk about abnormalities, there is one."
"Tell me what's abnormal."
"The night watchman who cleans the lobby reported that the recent statue of the Patriarch always feels shiny and shiny."
"Slick?"
After Qin Shaoyou made sure he heard correctly, he couldn't help laughing.
It seems that Snake General Ling is really delivering food to the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
During this period of time, there are nine bowls of demon meat. Can’t the statue of the Patriarch be shiny and shiny after eating it?
After Qin Shaoyou offered a stick of incense, Cui Yougui followed suit.
But at this moment, Senior Brother Cui had a tired look on his face, his hands were trembling, and he looked like he was over-consumed. He could hardly even insert the incense stick.
He indeed consumed too much - in the crowd just now, he was just showing off and didn't care about the consumption of mana.
Although a blessing spell does not consume much mana, it cannot be used many times and for a short time!
In less than an hour, he performed it hundreds of times, thousands of times... Even Senior Brother Cui felt that he couldn't bear it. He felt that his body was being hollowed out, and even his waist was feeling sore.
But thinking about the limelight he had just now and being admired by all the people, Senior Brother Cui felt that it was worth it no matter how painful his waist was.
After all, even Master and the old man have never enjoyed such a scene.
The next time I see my master, I can brag a little to him. Maybe I can make him feel ashamed and say, "I'm not as good as me." You may even pass on the position of Master of the Jade Emperor Temple to you in advance... …
Thinking of this, Cui Youyou couldn't help holding his waist and giggled.
Qin Shaoyou glanced at him, frowned and shook his head, not wanting to talk to a fool.
After offering the incense and thanking the Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch Statue for its secret protection and help along the way, Qin Shaoyou walked out of the lobby and went straight to the ward where he worked.
On the way, he called Ma Monk, Shan Daonian, Zeng Cong, Qiu Shi and Tu Huang.
I plan to ask these people who stayed behind about the situation inside and outside Mianyuan County during my absence.
Cui Youyou did not follow him.
He originally wanted to go back to his room to rest, but he was surrounded by the night watchmen who stayed behind and asked him about his experience during this patrol.
Although these night watchmen have all seen and heard the stories brought back by 'frontline reporter' Zhu Xiucai, they are stories after all, and they want to know the real situation.
What Mr. Cui said should be the truth... right?
Seeing that he still had a chance to show off, Cui Youwei didn't care about his tiredness and back pain. He immediately asked someone to get a stool and sit down. He covered his waist with his hands, picked out the experiences he could talk about, and started talking endlessly:
"Just ask me. I'll tell you, there are a lot of things I've encountered along the way..."
At the same time, inside the mission room.
Qin Shaoyou first took out two appointment documents from his arms and handed them to Monk Ma and Shan Daonian.
"Congratulations to both of you, you have been promoted to Chief Flag Officer."
Neither Monk Ma nor Shan Daonian expected that when Qin Shaoyou returned from a trip, they would be promoted.
I couldn't help but be filled with surprises, thank you and express my loyalty.
Qin Shaoyou waved his hand and said, "No need to thank me, this is all your own merit."
Then he looked serious: "Let's get down to business, during the time I left, were there any demons or strange things happening inside and outside the county?"
"There is no demonic sentiment. After all, the remaining power of the crackdown operation is still there. Even if you go to inspect the villages and towns, no demon or evil cultivator would dare to go to Mianyuan County to commit crimes against the wind."
"But speaking of strange things, there is one thing..."
