Xu Luo breathed a sigh of relief. Even if there was a fight, he was not afraid of these people.
But it is better to do less than to do more. It is better to do less things like dancing on graves in the middle of the night!
A perfectly green smile appeared on his face, and he bowed his hands.
"Thank you, General. Xu Luo comes from a small place. This is my first time going to Moshan County. I missed my accommodation on the way!"
"Haha, I, Xia Kekang, can't be called a general, let alone your Exorcism Department.
As long as you advance to the Tongmai realm, you can be called an exorcist, and you will be a proper captain.
You should be successfully enlightened now and have just become an exorcist?"
Hearing the deep envy in Xia Kekang's tone, as well as a hint of weirdness, Xu Luo's eyes flashed.
This Xia Kekang is obviously not as simple as he said.
If you can tell your own realm at a glance, you probably have to deal with exorcists and monsters on a daily basis. You are truly worthy of being Dayan's military commander who suppresses all directions!
Seeing that Xu Luo just smiled and didn't reply, Xia Kekang was stunned for a moment to react.
This young man is so wary!
He didn't say anything more. He looked at the heavy rain that didn't stop for a while, and at Xu Luo's clothes that were almost soaked. He took out the black umbrella from the horseback trousers and threw it over, and then raised his hand towards Xu Luo.
"I'll take the first step when I still have official duties to attend to.
Strange things are rampant at night, Brother Xu, be careful all the way. If we meet again in Moshan County, I will treat you to a drink!
Brothers, let’s go!”
Xu Luo was stunned and subconsciously grabbed the black umbrella before he could say thanks.
A line of cavalry in front of them had already been ordered to move, and the sound of rapid stampeding sounded again.
Xu Luo could only bow his hands behind him and watch the group rush into the rain again and disappear in a moment.
When the sound of rain gradually stopped, the sky was almost bright. Xu Luo, who had not slept all night, simply went straight on the road.
The closer we get to Moshan County, the sight of thousands of people disappearing along the straight road is finally gone.
Occasionally, large groups of carriages and caravans would pass by.
The villages and castles on the roadside gradually became denser, and the smoke from cooking stoves exuded the smell of human fireworks unbridled. This familiar smell made Xu Luo's tense mind relax.
Although the Huanjian Mountains are not as majestic as Anmo Mountain, stretching for thousands of miles.
But compared to people from Moshan County, they are more familiar and friendly.
The entire mountain range is not tall and majestic, but like a mother, it stretches out its two arms and hugs the entire county tightly in its arms.
But in recent years, people in Moshan County have become inexplicably more entangled and resentful when mentioning Huanjian Mountain.
As the red moon revives and strange things become rampant, the sparsely populated Huanjian Mountain has become the most dangerous place outside the entire county.
Xu Luo controlled Qing Niu to slow down, looking at the gradually becoming rugged mountain road ahead, the black line in the distance before, his newly relaxed mind became tense again.
Passing through Huanjian Mountain in front is Moshan County.
But on the way, he heard some bad news: Huanjian Mountain has become increasingly dangerous.
In addition to the ordinary ferocious beasts and monsters, an unknown strange creature has been wandering around Huanjian Mountain for some time.
There is no pattern of occurrence, and no one can find any trace of it.
It's just that all the people who encountered this strange thing were dead. The occasional survivors seemed to have completely lost their memories and couldn't tell what exactly they encountered.
Because of this, the Exorcism Department specially set up a warning station at the mountain pass.
Although the symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning, better than nothing, it can finally bring some comfort to ordinary people.
Fortunately, the frequency of this strange thing is not very high, so if you encounter it, you can only consider yourself unlucky.
The Shankou Station is not outside the mountain, but is located outside the Yinfeng Canyon.
In this regard, Dayan's government can be considered quite responsible.
This is the most convenient mountain crossing within a radius of nearly a hundred miles, and it also has the largest number of people and motorcades coming and going.
Xu Luo came outside the inn and saw a dozen dragon-scaled horses tied next to him. He was stunned. He unexpectedly encountered this group of imperial soldiers and cavalry again?
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the door, a middle-aged man in his thirties with stern features laughed heartily at Xu Luo.
"Brother Xu, we meet again, why don't we have a drink together?"
Xu Luo recognized Xia Kekang's voice and walked over without even thinking about it, using crutches.
The Imperial Guardsmen and his party were divided into two tables, which were very crowded.
These soldiers are indeed the first-class elites of Dayan to suppress the unyielding and fight against evil creatures. They all have stern faces and murderous intent.
Xu Luo nodded slightly to everyone, then Shi Shiran sat down.
"We came at the wrong time this time. A caravan has disappeared in Huanjian Mountain a few days ago. It may be that the inexplicable monsters have become active again!"
As soon as Xu Luo sat down, Xia Kekang's face was still smiling, but his words became serious.
Xu Luo felt nervous. No wonder the inn was almost full of people this early in the morning.
At the same time, I suddenly understood why Xia Kekang was so enthusiastic, probably because he was interested in his identity as an exorcist!
But as the Director of Military Affairs, he only needs to send the news back to Moshan County. Wouldn't the Exorcism Department send someone to respond?
unless……
These people can't even afford to wait for these few days?
Thinking of this, Xu Luo immediately decided that with his small body, he did not dare to get involved in this muddy water, and was prepared to wait at the inn for a few more days.
Just when he was about to speak, he happened to see the half-smiling look on Xia Kekang's face. He shrank his eyes and smiled bitterly in his heart.
How can there be any idiot among those who can enter the Imperial Military Department?
I'm afraid others will know all about my little thoughts.
If he is still ignorant, I'm afraid others won't mind letting him see what it means to bully others and what the evil feudalism is...
"Cough, cough"
Xu Luo coughed twice and said with a sneer.
"Since my lord has official duties, I need your full help. I'm just afraid that my strength is low, my intentions are weak, and it will be bad if I miss important things!"
Seeing that he was interested, Xia Kekang seemed to change his face and continued to show his bold expression.
"Brother Xu is indeed worthy of being the young talent favored by the Exorcism Department!
Brother, I also plan to have more people, so I can have more power. After all, you are the professionals in dealing with these things!"
Xu Luo let out a long breath. Since he was unable to resist, he could only try his best to plan and avoid this disaster.
He thought for a moment and then said slowly: "You should have some idea of the general situation of this strange creature, right?"
Although the tone is a little questionable, the meaning is very clear. Since we are all in the same boat now, it is better to speak openly.
The Exorcism Department Station has been established for so many years, so it is impossible for them not to have any understanding of the situation of this strange thing, and Yamaguchi Station will not hide it from Xia Kekang!
A look of satisfaction flashed in the corner of Xia Kekang's eyes, and he became more and more convinced that he had not waited for the wrong person.
After saying goodbye last night, the more I thought about him, the more I admired Xu Luo.
Not to mention people who have not yet entered the Exorcism Department, even if they have an official status, not many people can face the wolf-like and tiger-like Imperial Soldier Department calmly under such circumstances.
This also proves that the young man in front of him has absolute confidence in his own strength.
