"The magistrate of Lin'an City really dares to collude with evil spirits, damn him!"
"Judging from the letter, Zhao Fang has committed suicide out of fear of crime."
"Hmph, colluding with evil spirits can't be solved by committing suicide out of fear of crime. If everyone's consequences for colluding with evil spirits are just to die as an apology and forget about it, how many people in the world would betray the human race."
Zhou Yuanzheng sneered. In his eyes, Zhao Fang's death was just the beginning.
"Colluded with evil spirits, betrayed the human race, attempted to sacrifice Lin'an City to the monsters, and was punished for several crimes. The nine tribes should be punished!"
During the conversation.
His eyes looked towards Dongfang Zhao.
Regarding this.
Dongfang Zhao spoke slowly: "Judging from the Qingling Jade Pendant, it is true that the magistrate of Lin'an City is colluding with evil spirits, but Zhao Fang is also the magistrate of a city, and his majesty's approval is required to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan.
When I go to court tomorrow, I will report the truth truthfully.
Speaking of which, a trainee demon slayer can kill a powerful ghost-level monster, and can also kill demons. His strength is quite impressive. Are you familiar with this person?"
The object of the question.
Below is Jiang Zuo who is standing still and moving.
Hear and inquire.
Jiang Zuo cupped his hands and replied: "For the Eastern Guards, Shen Changqing has joined the Demon Suppression Division a year ago and has become a trainee demon slayer. According to the records left by Liu Chang, the former manager of the Huangbu Demon Slayer Institute, Shen Changqing Qing has been promoted to Tongmai for three months since he joined Zhenmo Division.
When it comes to talent, Shen Changqing is stronger than most demon slayers."
"Oh, March Tongmai, I didn't expect him to be a genius!" Dongfang Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly: "It takes eight or nine months to be promoted to Tongmai in March. It is not difficult to break through the middle stage of Tongmai. Even in the later stage, it is possible. .
In this way, killing a powerful ghost-level monster is considered normal."
Unparalleled genius.
Naturally, the speed of cultivation cannot be matched by others.
The meridians can be opened in three months and the meridians can be opened in the middle and late stages of one year. The possibility is not small at all.
Of course.
The span from connecting the meridians to the innate is not that easy.
If you want to break through this layer of barriers, the time it takes is not comparable to that of exercising to open up the meridians.
"correct."
Zhou Yuanzheng thought of something and looked at Jiang Zuo: "Some time ago, there was news from the Tianchawei that demon blood was born in Lin'an City of Guangyuan Prefecture. So, is this Shen Changqing who is now in charge of Lin'an City?"
"Exactly!"
Jiang Zuo nodded and replied truthfully.
Zhou Yuanzheng understood.
Too many things happen in the Demon Suppressing Division every day, and the Tianchao Guards from all over the place will continuously pass on all the collected information.
He has heard about many things, but if they are not too important, he will not deliberately remember them.
It's like the demon blood in Lin'an City was born.
That level of demon essence and blood was not a big deal to the Demon Suppressing Division. After someone made arrangements, Zhou Yuanzheng put the matter behind him.
Now because of colluding with evil spirits.
Only then did he remember something about Lin'an City again.
"If a peerless genius with three-month meridians were to be lost in Lin'an City, it would be a big loss. The blood of demons born in the world is not a precious thing, but for ordinary forces, it is quite tempting.
He is a warrior who has not broken through the innate talent and stays there. Even if he has the sign of the Demon Suppressor, he may not be able to control the situation."
Some of the guards shook their heads, indicating that they wanted to bring Shen Changqing back.
Dongfang Zhao looked calm: "The peerless genius who has grown up is the real genius. At present, most of the power of the Demon Slayer is restrained by evil spirits from all over the world. Although he is only a trainee demon slayer, his strength is not weak.
Ordinary yellow-level demon slayers may not be able to compare.
Just let him stay there. If he can return safely, he will be a talent worth cultivating. What suggestions do you have, Jiang Zuo?"
"I will obey your orders!"
Jiang Zuo was startled and hurriedly lowered his head and replied.
He is just a small steward, so he has no right to influence the thoughts of the guardian. At this time, it is most practical for him to be a transparent person.
"but--"
Dongfang Zhao changed the topic: "He has just joined the Demon Suppressing Division not long ago. He is not a yellow-level demon slayer. This mission is a bit tricky, and I, the Demon Suppressing Division, can't be silent at all."
After speaking, he looked at Zhou Yuanzheng and others.
"What do some guards think we should do more appropriately?"
"Since we are determined to let him guard Lin'an City, we should give him the treatment that a yellow-level demon slayer should have. Just choose a martial arts for him from the second floor of the library. If he can break through the innate realm in the future, it will also be a good thing. "
Zhou Yuanzheng replied without thinking.
The remaining two did not speak, but their meanings were similar.
Dongfang Zhao nodded and looked at Jiang Zuo: "From today on, Shen Changqing will be the Huang-level demon slayer. In addition, he will choose one of the internal martial arts on the second floor of the library and give him a bottle of Shunmai Dan. Following other things, a And sent to Lin'an City."
"I obey my orders!"
Jiang Zuo bowed and accepted the order.
"Tomorrow I will go to the palace to report to His Majesty to deal with the affairs of Lin'an City, but I think the new magistrate will not accept his fate so quickly. Before that, let Shen Changqing temporarily act as the magistrate of Lin'an City without requiring him to make any political achievements. , as long as the stability of the city is maintained.
If the matter in Lin'an City is still unresolved by then, the Demon Suppression Division will be able to free up its hands and will send people over to help."
——
After returning from Yongfu Pawnshop, Shen Changqing returned to the original inn to stay.
According to his original intention.
I should have just gone to inquire about the information about the demon essence and blood, and after confirming some things, I would have gone directly back home and headed to the capital of the country, the Demon-Suppressing Division.
As for other things in Lin'an City, they have nothing to do with me.
What Shen Changqing never expected was that just as he was about to leave, the Demon Suppressor would come up with such a trick for him.
"If I had known better, I wouldn't have gone to Tianchawei's place!"
He sighed helplessly, but he also understood that if he didn't go to Tianchawei, he wouldn't have to guard Lin'an City.
In fact.
After the letter was sent from the Demon Suppressing Division and fell into the hands of Tianchawei, Tianchawei had many ways to deliver the letter to him.
The difference between the two lies in the time.
Even if he has completely left Lin'an City or even Guangyuan Mansion, he might still turn back.
Two days passed quickly.
Shen Changqing also took a serious tour of Lin'an City in the past two days. The news about Zhao Fang's collusion with evil spirits has spread like wildfire.
After all, what happened that night was witnessed by many people, and not everyone of those government officials would keep their mouths shut.
in addition.
It was impossible to conceal the death of Zhao Fangtang, a county magistrate. In addition, the government officials strictly guarded the Zhao family, which caused quite a stir.
So by now, almost all the people in Lin'an City know about Zhao Fang's collusion with evil spirits.
For a while.
Zhao Fang and the Zhao family were reviled by thousands of people.
Of course, for Shen Changqing, it does not have much impact.
