The street was busy with traffic, and there were many people sitting there drinking on the second floor of a restaurant.
Near the window, there was a young man in a green shirt. There was a pot of wine, three plates of side dishes, and a knife on the table. The young man looked at the scene outside the window and drank alone.
“The scenery of Jincheng is very different from that of Guangyuan Prefecture and the capital.”
Shen Changqing looked at the scene outside the window. People were coming and going, and everyone's clothes were slightly different from what he had seen before.
and.
The weather in Dahuang Prefecture is dry and hot, which makes the skin of people here tend to be dry and yellow, which is different from the delicate, white and tender skin in other places.
This is his first day in Jincheng.
Since receiving the mission, Shen Changqing simply packed up and then rushed to Dahuang Mansion.
If Guangyuan Prefecture is close to the capital, then Dahuang Prefecture is bordering Guangyuan Prefecture.
If you want to enter Dahuang Prefecture, you must cross Guangyuan Prefecture.
to this end.
He spent a lot of time traveling.
It took more than half a month to finally reach Jincheng.
Look away from the window.

Shen Changqing looked at another table not far away with a vague look.
Two men and two women.
The man can be considered somewhat handsome, but not outstanding, while the two women are slim and quite attractive.
The four of them look young, and it can be seen from their skin that they are not natives of Dahuang Prefecture.
certainly.
As a big mansion, Dahuang Prefecture often has people from other prefectures arriving, but it is not a strange thing.
“Xu Yi, male, entered the Demon Division in June of the 381st year of the Qin Dynasty!”
“Tian Feibai, male, entered the Demon Division in June of the 381st year of the Qin Dynasty!”
“Jiang Yu, female, entered the Demon Division in June of the 381st year of the Qin Dynasty!”
“Xiao Wen, female, entered the Demon Division in June of the 381st year of the Qin Dynasty!”
In Shen Changqing's mind, he recalled the messages he had received.
He didn't get much information. After all, he was just a part-time parent, so it would be useless if he needed too much information.
The time now is June of the 383rd year of the Qin Dynasty.
obviously.
Several people only carry out the tasks when the one-year deadline is reached, rather than in advance.
“Unknowingly, it has been two years since I came to this world.”
Shen Changqing suddenly became emotional.
Two years are like a blink of an eye.
During this period, he was either performing tasks or practicing hard, and did not do anything extra at all, so he did not have much idea about the passage of time.
It was only now when he reviewed the information of several people that Shen Changqing discovered that he had already spent two years in this world.
Two years.
The changes are not small.
I have gone from being a person without any cultivation skills to now being at the peak of the innate world.
Looking at Xu Yi and others, Shen Changqing sighed again.
When he was performing the assessment task, no one was his parent, but now he is their parent.
but.
Such tasks are in the minority.
Many times, the assessment tasks for apprentice demon slayers are completed individually.
Shen Changqing suspected that the reason why he got the task of Lin'an City was probably related to his early access to the meridians.
The main thing is.
At that time, the manpower of the Demon Suppression Division was really tight.
Although the evil spirits are still rampant now, they are much better than last year, and the Demon Suppression Division will not be unable to be strong from beginning to end.
It can be seen from the fact that four trainee demon slayers can complete one task together.
In addition to the demonic strength revealed in the intelligence, the rest is proof that the Demon Suppression Division has now received a lot of fresh blood.
After a brief glance, Shen Changqing looked away in order to avoid suspicion.
the other side.
Several trainee demon slayers were also talking in whispers.
"You have all got the mission details, right? It is said that a large family in Jincheng had a lot of people die this time, and then they went to report to the official, and then the Tianchawei got the news. According to the situation, the strength of the evil spirits existing there is
It’s roughly the early or middle stage of opening up the meridians.”
Xu Yi looked at a few people and said.
He is the slightly older one in the team, so he is also the temporary captain of the team.
Hear the words.
Jiang Yu, who has a delicate appearance, had some faint fear on her pretty face when she heard the word evil.
“Brother Xu, with our strength, can we deal with that evil spirit?”
“Should not be a problem.”
Xu Yi glanced at her and comforted her.
"I, Brother Feibai and Miss Xiao have all broken through to the realm of Tongmai. Although you have not broken through, you have only stepped in with half a foot. With the four of us joining forces, even the evil spirits in the middle stage of Tongmai can't be killed if they want to.
It will be difficult.”
Three first-time Tongmai, plus one half-step Tongmai, and jointly deal with one mid-stage Tongmai. As long as you are careful, you can deal with it.
Hear the words.
Jiang Yu's inner nervousness immediately subsided a lot.
Tian Feibai said: "Should we go directly to the house now, or what?"
“Let’s collect some information first.”
Xu Yi pondered for a moment and shook his head.
followed by.
He looked at Tian Feibai and said, "Brother Feibai, go to the Yamen and see if you can get some news from the county magistrate."
"no problem."
Tian Feibai nodded.
Subsequently.
Xu Yi looked at Jiang Yu and Xiao Wen again: "You two will go to Zhou's house and ask about the specific situation. It is best if you have those evil characteristics."
Jiang Yu and Xiao Wen looked at each other and nodded.
"good."
“I will go to Tianchawei and ask for some information. We will meet at the inn at a quarter past ten tonight.” Xu Yi said in a low voice.
Hearing this, the other people had no problems.
soon.
A few people whispered again, then paid and left.
Although their voices were low, they were very clear to Shen Changqing's ears.
"Xu Yi has some experience in the world of martial arts. Although his work is not perfect, he has reduced a lot of mistakes. On the other hand, the other people are a little more immature."
He shook his head slightly.
From the conversation, it can be seen that Xu Yi became the captain not only because of his age, but also because of his rich experience in the world, which is also a very important factor.
As for the other people, it is obvious that they lack experience.
But it’s normal.
Not everyone of the trainee demon slayers of the Demon Suppressing Division has much experience in the world of martial arts. Just like their predecessors, in fact, they don’t have much experience either.
"only--"
“If they underestimate evil spirits because of this, they are destined to suffer big losses.”
Shen Changqing picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
It is worth mentioning that compared with the wine in the previous life, the wine here is less spicy and more mellow.
If we insist on making a comparison, we can only say that they are evenly matched.
Without a real fight with the evil spirit, you will never be able to understand how difficult it is to deal with the evil spirit, especially its mysterious attack methods, which are even more difficult to guard against.
Normally.
Three early-stage Tongmai warriors and one half-step Tongmai warrior can deal with a middle-stage Tongmai warrior.
but--
If you want to deal with a demon in the middle stage of Tongmai, if you are careless, you may suffer heavy losses.
Watching a few people leave.
Shen Changqing drank the last glass of wine and shouted loudly.
“小二.”
“What are your orders, sir?”
The waiter hurried over with an apologetic smile on his face.
“Check out.”
“Okay!” The waiter smiled, counted the list, and then bowed: “My guest spent a total of 123 Wen.”
A jug of wine.
Three dishes of side dishes.
It cost more than 120 Wen, which is not too expensive, but for ordinary civilians, it is not cheap either.
So in Da Qin, ordinary people rarely come to restaurants to eat.
Took out two pieces of silver and placed them on the table.
The waiter picked up the silver, carefully identified it, and put it away with a smile.
“Sir, please wait a moment, I’m going to give you change.”
"Um!"
Shen Changqing nodded.
Seeing this, the waiter looked a little disappointed, but he didn’t say anything more and left with two coins in his pocket.
After a while, he returned again.
“Sir, there are seventy-seven pieces of paper here, please keep them.”
Seventy-seven cents was carried in a simple money bag.
Shen Changqing weighed it twice before putting it in his arms.
“Thank you very much.”
After saying this, he stood up and walked away.
From the beginning to the end, he didn’t even look at the waiter, let alone take out a few pennies from his purse to reward him.
When Shen Changqing left completely, the waiter spat in a low voice.
“Looks freshly dressed, I didn’t expect to be so stingy——”
Complaining something.
He shook his head helplessly, then turned around to greet other guests.
The income from working in a restaurant is not high. On weekdays, only the rewards from some generous customers can make up for the income and enable me to maintain my life.
Guests like just now are not welcome anywhere.
at this time.
Shen Changqing has left the restaurant and walked on the street.
He also knew very well what was going on in the waiter’s mind.
It’s just that from the beginning to the end, Shen Changqing had no intention of rewarding the other party. After all, making money is not easy. Even if he has more than 20,000 taels of silver in his pocket, he still has to live frugally.
“Well, it’s hard to make money no matter where you are. When the silver tael is spent, you have to think of ways to get money again.”
Although more than 20,000 taels of silver is a lot of money, it is not very durable when it is really spent.
It is not always possible to have good luck like the last time in Lin'an City, where you could get a chance to earn 30,000 taels of silver.
so.
Shen Changqing cherishes this little money now. Unless it is necessary expenses, he will save the remaining expenses if he can.
The so-called reward is even more impossible to exist.
Walking on the street.
Shen Changqing reviewed the information in his mind, then stopped a passerby and asked politely.
“Excuse me, where is the first floor of Tianyi?”
The person who was intercepted did not want to answer at first, but when he saw Shen Changqing carrying a knife at his waist, and although his face was gentle, he always gave people a vague sense of pressure, he immediately did not dare to refuse.
“Tianyilou is on West Street. You can go straight in this direction for two intersections and then turn right.”
