When the sun shone on the earth again, Liang En and Lin An also entered the city with their goods.
At the beginning, Liang En was worried that he might lose the goods he had prepared before, but what he didn't expect was that after Lin An recovered for a while, he used his plant manipulation ability to get a lot of bamboo, and then the two of them made a bamboo raft to carry the things in together.
Got to the city.
After going home and putting away the goods, and telling Uncle Zhang to contact the people in the guild to make an appointment to see the goods, Liang En asked Lin An to rest at home temporarily while he went straight to the county government office to find someone.
As a result, as soon as I arrived at the gate of the county government office, I saw Capt. Li, who had already ordered his breakfast in the morning, eating breakfast at the bun shop next to the county government office.
"Mr. Liang, I heard that you went to purchase goods a few days ago. Are you back so early?" After saying hello, Capt. Li gave up half the table and asked Liang En to sit down, and then they chatted.
"Well, I'm very lucky. When I got there, I happened to meet the delivery person who brought the goods over -" Liang En said vaguely, and then asked.
"Captain Li, I have something urgent to do now and hope to see the county magistrate as soon as possible. Can you help introduce me to him?"
"What's the matter?" Seeing the serious look on Liang En's face, Capt. Li also put down the half-eaten buns in his hand. "It's okay to help you pull the strings, but if your matter is not urgent, I will inevitably be detained.
You even get paid for it."
"It's really an urgent matter." Liang En said, taking out a heavy lead-clad steel box, and then opened the box to reveal the vaginal bone found after killing the ghoul.
"Yin bone!" Li Captou, who was practicing martial arts, immediately recognized what was in the box, and this made his originally relaxed expression extremely serious.
"Did you find this thing nearby? If so, you must report it to the county as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, just after defeating the ghost king of Yinfeng Ridge, a new ghost king-level existence infiltrated from the netherworld into the nearby area——"
"No, the situation is more complicated than that." Liang En lowered his voice and said, "Not only did I kill the monster carrying this thing, I also rescued a young mountain ghost chief from its hands who was almost eaten."
"Young Patriarch? We are in big trouble now," Capt. Li said with a grimace on his face.
Of course he knows what the young patriarch represents to the mountain ghosts, and what it means when a young mountain ghost patriarch is taken away by a monster in his own jurisdiction.
The only thing to be thankful for is that Mr. Liang actually rescued the young mountain ghost clan leader by some mistake, which greatly reduced his guilt and allowed him to be fined or slapped with a ban at most, instead of losing his current position.
.
Therefore, Capt. Li's attitude towards Liang En suddenly became much more attentive. He ate half of the bun in his hand in one gulp, and then took Liang En into the county government office.
A few minutes later, they successfully met the county magistrate, and after Liang En told what happened yesterday, the magistrate's expression also became serious.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Liang." Ten seconds after Liang En finished speaking, the county magistrate, who had been deep in thought, showed a rather serious expression, and then smiled at Liang En.
"Thanks to your helping hand when faced with a crisis, the mountain ghost young patriarch is now safe and sound, and we can have a chance to save the current situation."
Next, the entire county government office became busy. As the government officials rushed out of the county government office, Liang En, who was left behind by the county magistrate, saw many people arriving at the county government office one after another.
Among these people were the county magistrate and other officials whom Liang En had met before, as well as local garrison officers whom he had never met before, the mayors of surrounding towns, and the local Jin Yiwei.
Different from the organization of the same name in another world, the Jinyiwei in this world is directly affiliated with the official Taichang in charge of extraordinary things in this world, and can be regarded as an independent armed organization outside the military.
Under normal circumstances, Jin Yiwei would only handle cases related to the extraordinary and would not be involved in ordinary cases. So when they walked into the county government office, Liang En immediately realized that this matter seemed to be much more complicated than he imagined.
.
After everyone arrived, Liang En began to recount what happened last night again, and then Lin An, who was picked up, told the entire process of his arrest.
After the two people finished speaking, the people present asked about the details, and as each detail was told, Liang En felt that the atmosphere on the court was becoming more and more tense.
After the questioning, Liang En and the others were invited to the side room to wait for a while, but it was only when they drank the tea in the pot that it was almost tasteless, and a government servant invited them back again.
At this time, almost all the officials in the room had left, leaving only the chief bannerman of the Imperial Guard and the county magistrate sitting in the room with serious faces.
"Master Liang, we will secretly escort Mr. Lin to Peach Blossom Island in Taihu Lake. For better communication, I hope you can go with us."
After Liang En and the others sat down, the county magistrate stroked his beard and said to Liang En.
"To tell you the truth, this operation is most likely just an ordinary trip, but there is a small chance that it may encounter fatal risks, so this is just our request to you."
"Can I ask what happened?"
"Sorry, I can't tell you these things now." The county magistrate shook his head and said, "I can only say that if you are willing to help, you may have a chance to save many innocent lives."
"Don't worry, the imperial court won't treat you badly." The chief military officer who introduced himself as Tian suddenly said.
"As long as you make this trip, no matter whether you encounter danger or not, and whether things go well or not, we will help you petition the court for the title of righteous citizen. And if you can make meritorious deeds, you will be rewarded even more."
Compared with the county magistrate who is a civil servant and persuades with righteousness, what Tian Zongqi of Jinyiwei said is more practical. For these organizations that fight against extraordinary enemies all the year round, they are absolute realists.
"Then I'll make this trip. It just so happens that my round of goods is already in place and can be sold to the guild on behalf of the guild. I don't have to worry about it myself. I'm free during this period."
After the county magistrate and Tian Zongqi finished speaking, Liang En raised his hands to express his willingness to make this trip.
After all, the other party is already a very courteous corporal for his job, and he can't be shameless. And if something really happens, he can just open the portal and run away, so as not to really take too much risk.
The most important thing is that judging from the fact that the essence of luck was not obtained when rescuing people before, there should be many doubts and opportunities hidden behind the whole thing.
So in order to gain more luck points and gain stronger cultivation, Liang En felt that he should try his best to get involved in this matter no matter what.
So early the next morning, Liang En packed his luggage and left the west gate of the city, and then rushed towards the west towards Taihu Lake with the Jin Yiwei team who had already arrived.
