Xu Luo didn't say anything, and just kept looking at her with a smile.
Zhao Shuangzhi felt a little weak for no reason, and after a moment of laughter, she disappeared from sight like a frightened deer.
Xu Luo chuckled to himself, it seemed that being able to enter Xuan Yiwei was not a bad thing, at least the people here were quite interesting.
Gu Xixi had a solemn expression on her face and was pacing back and forth in the hall, thinking about something. Looking at Zhao Shuangzhi who looked like she had just done something bad and was being chased back, she couldn't help stroking her forehead and sighing.
"Shuangzhi, can you stop being so startled? Where is Xu Luo?"
Zhao Shuangzhi smiled sheepishly and pointed behind her. Following a series of dull beeps, Xu Luo appeared in the hall with a smile on his face.
"I'm here. Sorry, I have some inconvenience in my legs and feet, so I kept everyone waiting!"
Damn, this guy is really bad!
Upon hearing this, several people in the hall looked like I believe you, especially Jin Sha, who looked constipated.
Gu Xixi forced a smile: "It's okay, we will all be a family from now on, so naturally we should be more considerate and take care of you!"
Maybe she herself felt that what she said was a bit embarrassing, so she couldn't make it up anymore and got down to business.
"I was just called over by Old Man He. I'm afraid that what happened in Baishi City will fall on us again!"
Although her words were full of complaints, everyone could hear her excitement.
Even Xu Luo, who had just arrived, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
I have always heard that this person seems to have a sworn hatred with weird and evil things. Whenever I hear that weird and evil things are causing trouble, no matter how dangerous it is, I will always rush to the first place. It seems that I am even more famous when I meet him!
White Rock City?
Xu Luosui quickly realized why this name seemed familiar?
Then he suddenly remembered that Yang Qing had mentioned it when he complained just now. Wasn't it the small town where Wang Peiran and others had an accident?
Gu Xixi didn't waste any time and directly handed the documents and files she brought back to a few people.
Xu Luo looked at the two Jinshas whose heads were almost in a pile, smiled knowingly, and picked up the case file to read.
Baishi City is a small city at the junction of Zhongzhou and Renzhou, close to the remaining mountains of Anmo Mountain. When it was most prosperous, it only had more than 10,000 Dingkou.
In this special period, which already has a somewhat apocalyptic scene, life is naturally not very good.
But because it is close to the Anmo Mountain Rock Defense Line, the Exorcism Department also stationed a Huang-level evil-killing officer, and the leader was none other than Xu Luo's old acquaintance Li Boyu!
This is also the reason why Xu Luo has been in the county town for more than a year, but has never seen the familiar faces of Jin Wulian.
Xu Luo raised his eyebrows involuntarily and continued to look down.
The Exorcism Department began to discover abnormalities almost half a year ago.
There is nothing wrong with all the news coming back from White Rock City, but if you put all the news together in the past six months, you can clearly see the difference.
Since the beginning of July, all the messages sent back have been the same, with rigid formats, as if they were printed from a template.
Huang Cangwei, where Wang Peiran was working, took over the task of secretly investigating the situation last month.
It was normal at first, but what happened next made all the clerks in the Miscellaneous Hall subconsciously sweat.
Because the same weird thing happened again.
Less than a month later, the news from Huang Cangwei was the same as that from Huang Yuwei before Li Boyu.
Now the Exorcism Department took it seriously, and the task was handed over to Wei Xuanyi, who was also one of the best in the Xuanzi group.
According to the wishes of He Buxiu, the head of Liangyi Hall, Captain Xuanyi will set out early tomorrow morning. He must be cautious throughout the process and use specific code words to send news back to the department every day.
In order to appease Lieutenant Xuanyi who is still in the hibernation period, each of them can receive a Xuan-level wooden talisman, two bottles of Yang Return Pill, and a spirit dew from the treasurer.
Seeing this, Xu Luo couldn't help but be stunned by Si Li's generosity this time.
Forget about the Yang-Returning Pill, it is specially designed to fight Yin-evil evil things. Its main function is to expel the Yin-evil aura from the body and speed up the recovery of injuries. These are just their proper meanings.
What I treasure is the Xuanjie wooden talisman, and the spiritual dew that everyone, including Xu Luo, covets.
The talismans are divided into four grades, from low to high, they are paper, wood, jade, and spirit. They are also generally referred to as heaven and earth, black and yellow.
Xu Luo has only seen the first two types of magic so far, and the only one who has truly experienced its power is the Huang Jie Paper Talisman.
But judging from the wooden talisman that Gu Xixi took out last time, it can make even the useless bamboo grow fearful, which shows its power.
The most important thing is that the talisman can be said to be exclusive to all the top forces.
If you want to train a talisman master, the resources and treasures consumed are beyond the imagination of a small family power or an individual!
Not only talisman masters, but also weapon refining, medicine making, and alchemy refining are all the same. They select the most suitable companion creatures from generation to generation, then select treasure materials, spiritual objects, and constantly test formulas...
I don't know how many times I have to fail before I can develop the most suitable and most powerful evil-killing weapon.
Just thinking about it makes you realize that this consumption of resources year after year is simply appalling!
What's more, it will only take more than a hundred years for Red Moon to recover, and only big forces can play this way. It is not easy for others to reluctantly embark on the path of cultivation.
Anyway, 90% of the exorcists Xu Luo met in Moshui County were either employed in the Exorcist Department or attached to the Imperial Military Department.
This is also the main reason why the Yan court can barely maintain itself even if the situation outside the city collapses to this point.
However, since the exorcism department is bleeding heavily, it will definitely not engage in loss-making business, which is enough to prove how difficult this matter is.
After Xu Luo read all the case files, he remained silent as if in a daze.
On the other hand, the other two, Jinsha, argued a few words from time to time. After a long while, they finally reached a consensus and put down the case file.
"Jinsha, what do you two think?"
It was said that there were two people, but in fact even Xu Luo, who was new here, could tell that Gu Xixi was asking about Jinsha, and Zhao Shuangzhi was just a free gift.
At this time, one can see the difference between a kid from a noble family like Jin Sha and a mud-legged guy like Xu Luo.
He just pondered for a moment and then introduced the origin, customs and culture of Baishi City, and the general situation of the distribution of power like a few treasures.
"Baishi City was originally a wintering place where mountain barbarians gathered. It has been naturalized for nearly three hundred years and has been relatively stable over the years.
In the past few decades, there have been no more than ten recorded incidents involving strange objects, and most of them had few casualties. They were just the remnants of the Rock Defense Line, and the government's prestige there was still there.
In the past six months, various businesses of the Jin family have been traveling in that area, and there have been no critical casualties.
In addition, there are obviously no abnormal findings at the county government, which proves that either the strange thing has not appeared in the light and people are still peaceful, or..."
Having said this, Jinsha's face became extremely solemn.
What he didn't say, others could understand.
There is also the possibility that everyone in the entire White Rock City will be deceived or fall. That is the worst case scenario!
