After receiving his assessment task, Shen Changqing rushed directly to Lin'an City.
This assessment task.
He went there alone.
Although the Demon Suppression Department seems to have a lot of manpower, in fact, there are more monsters and monsters in various places, and there is simply no way for just a few people to complete a task.
In addition, considering Shen Changqing's strength, Jiang Feng directly asked him to go to Lin'an City alone.
Nearly ten days.
Shen Changqing finally arrived in Lin'an City.
Different from the prosperity of the capital, Lin'an City seems much calmer.
But he didn't pay much attention to these external manifestations. The purpose of coming here was to get rid of the evil spirits. As for other things, it didn't matter much.
Present your identity token.
Shen Changqing entered the Yamen easily.
The magistrate of Lin'an City also came to greet him immediately.
"I, Zhao Fang, have not yet asked for your name!"
"Demon Slayer trainee from the Huang Department of the Demon Suppression Department, Shen Changqing!"
Shen Changqing slightly arched his hands.
As he spoke, he was already looking at the person in front of him.
As early as when I came to Lin'an City.
Shen Changqing has already collected a lot of information about Lin'an City, including the magistrate in front of him.
The other party has been the magistrate of Lin'an City for almost twenty years.
In twenty years.
Lin'an City has experienced several evil disasters, but Zhao Fang has always been as stable as Mount Tai and still maintains his position as magistrate.
Shen Changqing also admired this.
It’s okay not to accept it.
A normal person would simply resign and retire when encountering an evil disaster once or twice, not daring to stay in Lin'an City any longer.
But Zhao Fang is different.
Several demons and disasters have occurred, but the other party has remained indifferent.
This courage alone cannot be matched by others.
When Shen Changqing looked at Zhao Fang, Zhao Fang was also looking at him.
But after just a moment, he withdrew his gaze and showed a warm smile on his face.
"It turns out that this is Lord Shen from the Demon Suppression Division. Lord Shen has come a long way. Why don't you rest in the city for one night and wait for tomorrow? I will talk to you about the evil things."
"No, we must kill the evil spirits without delay. If I rest for one more day, one more person may die. It's better to deal with it in time."
Shen Changqing shook his head.
In his mind, completing the mission is more important.
As for the rest, let’s wait until later.
Hear the words.
The enthusiasm on Zhao Fang's face became even more intense: "Master Shen has a warm heart, and I admire him very much. Since Master Shen is anxious about dealing with evil spirits, I will ask someone to explain it to you."
Finished.
His face turned solemn.
"Someone is coming!"
"What are your orders, sir!" A government servant standing behind him stepped forward at the right time.
"Transmit my order and have Mr. Zhang come over immediately."
"yes!"
The officer was ordered to leave.
When he left, Zhao Fang smiled again: "Master Shen, please follow me into the inner hall and take a seat."
"Thank you very much!"
——
The inner hall of the Yamen.
Shen Changqing and Zhao Fang were seated on the left and right sides.
Just as the servant was bringing the tea, a rather tall, older-looking man walked in with a knife in his hand.
"Master Zhao!"
"Captain Zhang is here, please sit down!"
Zhao Fang nodded, then pointed at Shen Changqing and introduced.
"This is Mr. Shen Changqing from the Demon Suppression Department. This is Zhang Long, Capt. Zhang of our Lin'an City Yamen. Capt. Zhang has been serving as a captivity for more than ten years, so he is considered a veteran.
If Master Shen has any questions, just ask Mr. Zhang."
Get introduced.
Shen Changqing also looked at Zhang Long.
As early as when the other party came in, he noticed that Zhang Captou's body was full of energy and blood, and he obviously had high attainments in external skills.
Body training realm!
And it's definitely not an ordinary body-building realm.
It is very likely that he is a warrior who has reached the late stage or the peak of the body forging realm.
Shen Changqing slightly arched his hands.
"I've seen Zhang Captou."
"Master Shen, you're so polite!" Zhang Long was quite flattered and hurriedly returned the favor: "I don't know if Master Shen has anything you want to know, so you might as well tell me directly."
He doesn't know the details of Shen Changqing.
But just relying on the three words "Zhenmo Division" is enough to explain a lot of things.
No matter where you are.
The people in the Demon Suppression Division all have great status.
Even Zhao Fang, who is the county magistrate, needs to be treated politely, let alone a small head catcher himself.
more importantly.
When facing Shen Changqing, Zhang Long found that he couldn't see any clues.
As a member of the Demon Suppression Division, it is naturally impossible for him to have no cultivation at all.
There is only one reason that I can't see.
The Shen Changqing in front of him was far more powerful than him.
Think of this.
Zhang Long did not dare to be rude.
Shen Changqing said: "I got information from the Demon Suppression Division that there is an evil spirit appearing in Lin'an City, but I hope Zhang Captou can give a comprehensive answer as to the specifics."
"Yaoxie——"
Zhang Yatou nodded, his expression gradually calmed down as if he was recalling something, and he spoke slowly after a long time.
"As early as half a month ago, someone came to report to the police that a murder had occurred. We immediately sent the government officials to investigate. When we got there, we found that all those who died had become Mummy.
After Wu Zuo's verification, the corpses were all recently dead, but the blood and essence on their bodies had been drained, as if they had been dead for many years.
We realized immediately that something evil must be causing trouble."
In the inner hall.
Shen Changqing sat there, listening to what Zhang Long said.
There was almost no difference between what the other party said and the information he got from the Demon Suppression Division.
Wait until the other person has finished speaking.
Shen Changqing asked: "What about after the mummy was discovered, but what else happened?"
"I know a little bit about this."
Zhang Long didn't have time to speak, but Zhao Fang answered.
"After confirming that the evil spirits were causing trouble, we asked people to move the people out of the village, and then sealed off the entire village to prevent anyone from entering or leaving for the time being.
At present, nothing has happened.”
Discover the evil spirit.
Then all the villagers were transferred out as soon as possible.
Shen Changqing also deeply agrees with Zhao Long's approach.
According to the information from the Demon Suppression Department, the murderous monster was only a ghost-level monster. As the lowest ghost-level monster, there is no way to leave the place easily. Most of them use certain items as carriers.
That is to say.
As long as the villagers are transferred out and the village is sealed off, there will be no other problems in a short time.
It's weird and scary after all.
That also depends on what level of weirdness it is.
Although ghost-level monsters are also very difficult to deal with, they can be controlled as long as they are dealt with properly.
"Master Zhao did it very skillfully!" Shen Changqing said pointedly.
Zhao Fang smiled bitterly: "There is no way, Lin'an City has been plagued by evil spirits frequently in recent years. Even people who don't know how to adapt should know how to deal with evil spirits.
Fortunately, the evil spirits that have appeared so far have not had much impact.
Now that Mr. Shen is here again, there will be no problem.
After all, the Demon Suppressing Division has killed countless evil spirits in the past, and with Master Shen’s strength, there will be no problem in dealing with them."
To the end.
Zhao Fang patted him on the back without leaving any trace.
In front of evil spirits.
Ordinary people have no right to resist.
Only the strong men of the Demon Suppression Department can truly deal with evil spirits.
Although Shen Changqing is a trainee demon slayer and is considered the lowest level among all demon slayers, since the Demon Slayer Division sent him here, it proves that he is capable of handling it.
Zhao Fang did not dare to take this lightly.
"Where is the village where the evil spirit appears?"
"It's about ten miles away from the east gate of Lin'an City." This time it was Zhang Long who answered.
Finished.
He did not wait for Shen Changqing to answer, and then spoke: "If Mr. Shen wants to go to the village to visit, you might as well wait until tomorrow.
It's getting late now, it's hard to see at night, and it's inconvenient to deal with evil spirits.
If you go during the day, it will be easier if the scorching sun blocks your path."
"That's fine."
Shen Changqing did not reject Zhang Long's proposal, not that it was really better to deal with evil spirits during the day.
Because strictly speaking, evil spirits are not afraid of the scorching sun.
No matter whether it is day or night, there will be no decrease or increase in strength.
But in the eyes of ordinary people, evil spirits are evil things, so they are afraid of the sun during the day and dare not show up easily, but their strength increases greatly at night.
The reason why Shen Changqing doesn't go now.
It was also because he was on the road for a long time, and even a master in the Tongmai realm could not withstand such consumption.
Plus.
It's getting late.
Although I can see at night, there are still some differences from daytime.
soon.
Zhao Fang arranged for someone to stay with Shen Changqing.
Considering that the other party came from the Demon Suppression Division, he did not dare to show any slights.
Originally, Zhao Fang wanted Shen Changqing to live in his mansion, but the other party refused, so he had no choice but to arrange for him the best inn in the city.
Lin'an City is small.
But it can be considered complete.
Some things that should be there are not lacking at all.
Under the leadership of Zhang Long, Shen Changqing came to the inn in Lin'an City. Because he had memories of his past life, he was noncommittal about the environment of the inn.
"Mr. Shen, have a good rest. I'm waiting for tomorrow morning to come back and see you again!"
"It's time to arrest the head because of fatigue."
"Master Shen has spoken harshly, I will resign from my humble position!"
Zhang Long resigned.
Soon, Shen Changqing was the only one left in the guest room.
He didn't go to sleep immediately, but was thinking about something. After all, it was his first time to perform a mission, so he couldn't be careless.
and.
The target of the mission is weird, and if you are careless, you might get caught in it.
For the sake of your own life.
No matter what, Shen Changqing must treat this matter carefully.
