Chapter fifty-ninth is destined to be a bloody night
Shen Changqing looked calm and walked alone on the street.
Suddenly, a breeze blew by.
His steps moved.
The long sword was unsheathed in an instant. Tianwu Zhenqi had already been condensed, and the blade exploded with terrifying power. He suddenly turned around and struck down.
Suddenly
I saw a man in red clothes whose face could not be seen clearly, who was cut in half by a long knife.
"ah!!"
A sharp and ear-piercing scream sounded, and the body of the man in red was split in half by a long knife and disappeared like smoke.
at the same time.
A familiar aura blended into Shen Changqing's hands along the blade.
Looked at the panel below.
The kill value has changed from zero to seven points now.
The demon that was killed just now was the weakest demon he had ever encountered.
It can be seen from the fact that the opponent only contributed seven kill points, it is really too weak.
Kill the evil spirits with one sword.
The street in front of me returned to normal in an instant.
Shen Changqing sheathed the sword and walked quickly towards the Yamen.
At present, the evil spirit appears in Lin'an City and dares to attack him secretly. This shows that his original guess is correct.
The Eternal Life Alliance not only sent some demons to snatch the demon blood, but also sent other demons to attack Lin'an City.
The purpose of the opponent's attack on Lin'an City.
Shen Changqing thought about it, it is very likely that there are two.
One is for the 100,000 people in Lin'an City.
The second is for revenge.
After all, two demons and several demons died in his hands. How could the Eternal Alliance swallow such a sigh of relief?
When Shen Changqing arrived at the Yamen, he found that the door was closed, but the lights were brightly lit inside.
“Come here, open the door for me!”
Shen Changqing shouted in a deep voice.
The words have fallen.
The closed door slowly opened.
A government servant carefully poked his head out. When he saw Shen Changqing's face, his face immediately showed a look of relief.
“My lord is back!”
The door is officially opened.
A group of government officials poured out from inside.
Shen Changqing stepped into the Yamen, looked at the many Yamen servants gathered here, and said calmly: "Let Shi Qingsheng and Zhang Yue come to the inner hall to meet me. The others should stay in the Yamen as much as possible and wait for my order."
"yes!"
Many officials nodded in response.
Inner hall.
Shen Changqing sat in the first place, and Shi Qingsheng and Zhang Yue came hand in hand.
"grown ups!"
“What happened in the city?”
As Shen Changqing spoke, he looked at the faces of the two people.
Both Shi Qingsheng and Zhang Yue, both had nervous looks on their faces.
Hear the words.
Zhang Yue took the lead and clasped his fists: "Sir, not long after you left, some abnormalities were discovered in the city. Some people found that they could not finish the road, and some found that they kept walking in circles.
I suspected that something evil was at work, so I arranged for all the government servants to be temporarily on standby at the government office.
Waiting for the adults to come back before making the next decision!"
Wait until Zhang Yue finishes speaking.
Shi Qingsheng then spoke: "I wonder if you encountered anything unusual when you came back?"
“This time the earth dragon turned over, it seems that it attracted a lot of evil spirits. When I came back, there were also evil spirits who confused me, but they were killed by me. But judging from the current situation, some evil spirits have already sneaked into the city.
Moreover, there are definitely more than just one evil spirit sneaking into the city.
Immediately send me an order to close all the four city gates. No one can be allowed in or out without my permission."
Shen Changqing's face was slightly cold.
Judging from the situation described by Zhang Yue, the number of evil spirits in the city is definitely not as simple as one or two.
but.
Those demons can only simply confuse people, and their strength is limited.
However, he is not 100% sure that the evil spirits sneaking into the city will be very weak.
When Zhang Yue was about to accept the order and retreat, Shen Changqing stopped him.
“There are a lot of evil spirits in the city now. Ordinary government officials have no chance of resisting the evil spirits. As long as there are roosters that have lived for more than three years in the city, we will collect them all.”
See the doubts on their faces.
Shen Changqing explained patiently: "The rooster is the most yang thing. Although its blood cannot 100% deal with evil spirits, it can still play some role.
As long as you encounter an unusual situation and spill some rooster blood, you can break down the obstacles and give you a chance to escape.
Of course, you cannot try to use cock blood to kill evil spirits, as it will be of no use."
“Humble your duties and obey your orders!”
Zhang Yue solemnly clasped his fists, turned around and left.
Soon.
Shen Changqing's eyes fell on Shi Qingsheng, and he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he shook his head.
“You have nothing to explain, just live a good life!”
How can a scholar with no strength in his hands accomplish anything great?
Although it is said that some great Confucian scholars can restrain evil spirits with their awe-inspiring righteousness, Shi Qingsheng obviously cannot do that.
Last time an evil spirit attacked the Yamen, the other party was lucky enough to survive.
This time.
It just depends on Shi Qingsheng’s luck.
Hear the words.
Shi Qingsheng smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your concern, I know what to do!"
Know one’s own affairs.
Faced with evil spirits, it would be good if he did not cause any trouble.
Two or three quarters of an hour.
Zhang Yue collected a lot of roosters, and then killed the chickens to collect the blood according to Shen Changqing's instructions. All the blood was packed in bottles. Each yamen servant carried ten or eight chicken blood bottles.
Yamen outer hall.
Many government officials gathered there, each holding a torch in their hands. Some had fear on their faces, while others had resolute expressions.
Last time the yamen was attacked and some of the yamen servants died, Shen Changqing had people recruit many more yamen servants.
Until now.
The number of yamen servants in the yamen is already more than 40.
Shen Changqing stood in front of everyone, with a solemn look on his face: "I won't say more about some things. I will only say one thing, that is, the royal food you eat and the salary you receive are taxes from the people.
On normal days, the people provide for you, and that is their obligation. But if there is danger, you must stand at the front to protect the peace of the people behind you. This is also your obligation."
In the outer hall, only Shen Changqing's voice echoed.
"Now that evil spirits are attacking Lin'an City, I need you to do a few things. First, immediately seal the four city gates and don't let anyone in or out."
“Second, you need to patrol the city and inspect the situation in various places. If you find anything abnormal, you need to report it immediately. I will personally kill the evil spirits.”
"As for how to use the chicken blood in the bottle, I have already left it to you. Each of us does not have many resources. We must use them only when it is critical. Otherwise, what will happen once it is exhausted? I believe there is no need to repeat the description. Got it!"
Finished.
Zhang Yue clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, sir, the evil spirits are messing with Lin'an. Even if I sacrifice my life for my humble duty, I will never take a step back!"
“Okay, let’s go!”
Shen Changqing waved his hand, and Zhang Yue left with all the government officials.
Suddenly.
The Yamen seems much empty.
"Sir, are you sure you can deal with those evil spirits?" Shi Qingsheng, who was standing next to him, looked calm, but there was uncontrollable fear in his eyes.
He is just an ordinary person.
Faced with monsters and things that are far beyond the scope of ordinary people, one will instinctively feel fear.
“Grasp?”
Shen Changqing shook his head and sneered: "Who can say that we are 100% sure in the face of evil spirits, but don't worry, I am the magistrate of Lin'an City, and I will definitely not see Lin'an City fall into the hands of evil spirits."
It can’t be done unless it’s really something!
Then, he added silently in his heart.
After comforting Shi Qingsheng.
Shen Changqing paused and asked: "Is there any more powerful weapon in the yamen? I am wearing a sword to kill monsters, but it is corroded by blood, so I can't use it smoothly."
“A more powerful weapon?”
Shi Qingsheng was stunned and immediately fell into deep thought.
Half a sound.
He thought of something.
"Speaking of which, when the Zhao family ransacked their property last time, some weapons were found, but they were not cashed in for the time being, so they were all piled up in the Yamen warehouse. Your Excellency, you can come with me and take a look."
“Okay, lead the way!”
Following Shi Qingsheng, the two of them soon arrived at the Yamen warehouse.
There are boxes piled up there, all sealed.
At the same time, there are several weapon racks placed there.
Pointing to the weapons rack.
Shi Qingsheng said: "Sir, these are the weapons currently in the warehouse. Take a look."
Hear the words.
Shen Changqing approached the shelf and picked up a long knife. It was neither light nor heavy. When the long knife was pulled out, the blade looked a little white.
With a flick of the finger.
The crisp and sweet sound of the knife sounded.
The blade of the blade shook violently, as if it was about to break at any moment.
Seeing this, Shen Changqing could only shake his head helplessly.
The long sword was returned to its sheath and rearranged, and he looked at other weapons.
A quarter of an hour.
The two of them left the warehouse.
There are a lot of weapons there, but they are all fake and look good, but have no practical use.
Shen Changqing was afraid of breaking those weapons if he exerted any force.
Compared with the weapons equipped by the Demon Suppressor, it is more than one level behind.
Even if the sword is corroded by the demon's blood, it is still much more useful than those weapons.
Return to the inner hall.
Shen Changqing was sitting there alone, with a basin of water beside him. The long knife on his waist had been untied at some point, and the scabbard was put aside.
Hold a wet rag in one hand and a long knife in the other, as if wiping the corroded blade.
At every important moment.
He always needs to do something to calm his heart.
Wash the knife.
is one of the methods.
Clean water was wiped on the blade. There was no way to wash away the traces of corrosion, but it could make Shen Changqing's heart gradually calm down.
After a long time.
He stopped what he was doing.
The rag was discarded in the basin, and the pitted blade seemed to become a little brighter.
"Now, you are the only one who can help me!"
Looking at the long knife, Shen Changqing had a slight smile on his face, but under the light of the candle, he looked a bit cold.
Hand open the seal with a long knife.
Tonight is destined to be bloody.
Shi Qingsheng has been sent back to rest by him. At present, the only one in Lin'an City who can fight against evil spirits is himself.
