A big demon can even admire a house.

But after all, Nanyang is the capital and is heavily guarded. Even if there has been a demon incident recently, this demon is not so easy to find.

In addition, the weather in September is still hot and hot. Although the rewards from above are high, it does not provide much motivation for the Jin Yiwei at the bottom.

The biggest change is that I no longer fish in the yamen.

I always go out for a walk, pretending to be very busy looking for monsters.

The same goes for Chen Mo.

But her chances with Lin Xiaoer were greatly reduced.

Because of the heavy pressure from above, even adults from hundreds of households can't sit in the Zhenfusi Yamen as usual.

So Lin Bai simply hid home, waited until it was getting dark, and then pretended to be tired and returned to the Yamen. The day passed like this.

The autumn wind was bleak. Chen Mo put on plain clothes and sat in a building with a group of other boys in plain clothes, listening to the storyteller.

As a storyteller in the capital, if you want to live a long life, you must not discuss matters in the court, so the stories in the book are all about the affairs of the world.

From the storyteller's mouth, Chen Mo learned some interesting things about the world recently.

It turns out that the previous leader of the martial arts alliance was from the imperial court, and was an undercover agent of the imperial court who broke into the martial arts world.

Three years after another, the undercover agent actually became the leader of the martial arts alliance.

The imperial court had a clear understanding of all the big and small decisions in the martial arts world, and many martial arts sects that were harmful to the imperial court were wiped out in one fell swoop.

It was not discovered until recently.

But Wulin did not dare to do anything to this undercover agent of the imperial court, so he could only re-elect the Wulin leader.

A fifth-grade obscene monk was assassinated with a firecracker by an unranked policeman while he was picking flowers.

When last year's top three Jinshi was promoted to Beijing and took office, he accidentally broke into the ghost realm and became a fool when he found it the next day.

The son of the chief gunman was dissatisfied that his beloved oiran had become the concubine of a wealthy businessman. He killed his entire family and was wanted by the government.

The cowherd boy fell off a cliff and learned magical skills, and became the son-in-law of a martial arts hero.

Chen Mo and others listened with great interest.

……

The autumn wind has passed, and after dozens of reincarnations of the sun and the moon, the eaves of Fusi in Beizhen are covered with snow.

During this period of time, Chen Mo didn't do much to gain attribute points. In fact, it wasn't that easy to do so. He only got one attribute point in more than two months.

It was extremely cold, and Chen Modu saw many frozen bones on the streets of the capital.

After entering December, there are actually a lot of beggars in the capital, huddled in front of the wealthy mansion every day, but the owner of the house would rather feed the leftovers to the cats and dogs than give alms to the beggars.

Finally, a kind-hearted official couldn't bear to see the poor starving and freezing, so he ordered all these beggars to be driven out of the capital. He also ordered the imperial guards guarding the city not to allow ragged people into the capital.

Now, the rich and prosperous scene of the capital in the past is once again presented before everyone's eyes.

……

Xuanhe three years, December 27th.

On this day, Chen Mo's mentality collapsed.

The day before yesterday, he took people to raid the home of a wealthy businessman.

The wealthy businessman's home hired many nursing homes, and Chen Mo also gained two attribute points.

Except for those who resisted and were killed, the others were all taken to prison. They were charged with conspiring with the demon and were sentenced to death in the coming autumn.

However, yesterday, all these people died in prison.

Today, Chen Mocai learned the truth about this matter.

Wang Ying's nephew, Wang Cai, came out of a restaurant some time ago and saw the son of a wealthy businessman getting married and brought him back home.

Wang Cai ignored the dissuasion of others and insisted on seeing the bride's face in the sedan. A conflict broke out and he beat the merchant's son to death on the spot and insulted the bride.

The merchant was so angry that he sued the government.

After Wang Ying learned about this matter, in order to wipe his nephew's ass, he charged the merchant with genocide of being an accomplice to the demon, and then asked the Jin Yiwei below to handle it.

After being passed down from level to level, this job fell into Chen Mo’s hands.

Before this, Chen Mo did not know the truth of this matter.

He obeyed the order.

In fact, even if he knew the truth, he would not be able to change it. At most, he would not do it himself and let the people below him do it.

But now...

More than a hundred lives were lost just like that.

The merchant did not recruit anyone or offend anyone, so he suffered the disaster of annihilation.

But the murderer is still alive and well, enjoying the food and drinking spicy food.

Chen Mo never thinks that he is a good person, but he is definitely not a bad person. He has his own conscience and bottom line.

But this incident made him collapse.

Although he was not responsible for this incident, more than a hundred people died indirectly at his hands.

Because he was the one who brought the person back.

Humans are not like vegetation, so how can we be ruthless?

This was the first time that Chen Mo had come into close contact with this matter, which made him unable to calm down for a long time.

For this reason, he impulsively went to question Lin Bai and asked if Lin Bai knew about this matter.

Lin Bai didn't know either, because Wang Ying wanted to wipe his butt and naturally didn't want too many people to know about it, so he didn't tell the people below the specific details.

If he knew it, Lin Bai would still go back and do it, but he would not leave it to Chen Mo, but to another commander-in-chief.

For Lin Bai, Chen Mo was his confidant, and stealing the homes of wealthy businessmen was a dirty trick, so he left it to Chen Mo.

Lin Bai also comforted Chen Mo not to think too much, saying that this matter has nothing to do with you, you just carried out the order, don't worry about it.

But how could Chen Mo not worry about it?

This is the first time he has encountered such a thing, and his heart has not become numb.

……

It gets dark very quickly in winter.

After being released from the government office, Chen Mo went to buy some paper money, found a place where no one was around, and burned it.

He murmured: "I didn't know anything about your family, but I didn't expect the truth to be so cruel.

In fact, even if I know the truth, I can't change it. I have to act according to the order and reincarnate with peace of mind. If there is a chance, I will avenge you..."

After the paper money was burned, there was a whisper, and Chen Mo felt a little better.

"Just wait patiently for a while, I believe it won't take long..."

Looking at the gradually extinguishing fire, Chen Mo turned and left.

This night, he did not go to the Jiaofang Department.

Instead, I practiced all night in the Yamen. Even though it was a drop in the bucket, it was like venting. I felt that torturing myself would make me feel better.

Winter passes and spring comes.

Chen Mo spent twenty-four years in Chu State.

He didn't forget what happened to the merchant's family, he just kept it in his heart and waited for an opportunity.

In the fourth year of Xuanhe, on February 2, the dragon raised its head.

The beautiful women selected from various places last year took the official ship and passed through the canal, and were about to enter Beijing.

But at that time, a case was transferred to the Department of Finance.

It is said that beautiful girls often disappeared and fell into the water during this period. After investigation by the Jin Yiwei accompanying the ship, they found that there was a water demon causing trouble, but the water demon was very similar to water and was difficult to catch. He asked the Town and Fu Department to send more Jin Yiwei to protect the officer.
