Seeing that Wu Fei was speechless due to the rebuke, Lin Ji couldn't say how proud he was.
Shaking his head with a half-smile, he ignored Wu Fei and others and walked into the Liangcheng Yamen on his own.
Outside the government office, Wu Fei's face turned red with anger.
"Boss, this kid is too arrogant."
"I dare not give you face when I come to Liangcheng. I really take my status as a country headhunter seriously."
"If I want to see it, I have to give him a hard blow to make him remember..."
"enough!"
Wu Fei frowned and scolded, and many of the detectives immediately shut up.
"I still don't know what this kid is doing in Liangcheng. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Fei turned around and left, and a group of police officers quickly followed him.
...
On the other side, after Lin Ji entered the government office, a government servant immediately came forward to guide him.
When they reached the small courtyard deep inside the government office, the government officials stopped.
"Lin Captou, your Excellency is inside."
"Thank you." Lin Ji cupped his hands and thanked him.
After the government servant leading the way left, Lin Ji was about to knock on the door, but Zhan Chengfeng's voice sounded directly inside.
"Just come in."
"As commanded."
After bowing slightly, Lin Ji walked into the small courtyard.
In the courtyard, Zhan Chengfeng was sitting on a chair in the corner, holding a rolled book in his hand, frowning in thought from time to time.
He didn't raise his head, but said directly to the chair opposite him: "Sit."
"Thank you, sir, for the seat."
"No need to be formal. I never like these red tapes. Please relax."
Zhan Chengfeng kept his eyes on the book and said distractedly: "I will tell you in detail after I finish reading this chapter. Please wait for a moment."
"Yes." Lin Ji responded casually.
This wait lasted for half an hour.
Seeing that it was almost noon, Zhan Chengfeng finally put down the book in his hand and looked at Lin Ji.
"Lin Ji, long time no see. You are much more energetic than you were two years ago."
"Thank you for your concern, my lord, I am very frightened."
"I told you, don't bother with these red tapes, just feel free to do it."
Zhan Chengfeng waved his hands sarcastically, stood up and said, "Come, come and walk with me."
After finishing his words, before Lin Ji agreed, Zhan Chengfeng walked out of the small courtyard and walked toward the garden not far away.
This government office is called a government office, but it is not much different from the town government official's own residence.
Lin Ji lowered his head slightly and followed Zhan Chengfeng. He had many questions in his mind, but he was not in a hurry to ask.
Everyone was already here, and he believed that Zhan Chengfeng would take the initiative to mention what he wanted to know.
Zhan Chengfeng, who was walking in front, paused. At this time, the two of them had arrived at the edge of the pond.
"Are you a little surprised that you are suddenly appointed as the Chief Constable of Liangzhou?"
"It was true at first, but then I figured it out, and all I was left with was fear, but no surprise or joy at all." Lin Ji told the truth.
"tremble with fear?"
"Fix the Soul and Conquer the Demonic Pestle." Lin Ji smiled calmly, "This thing is like a hot potato. At first, I really thought that Master Xingchi wanted to send me to Buddhism, but later I experienced a lot of bad things.
I love to ponder, so I figured it out."
Lin Ji paused, with a wry smile on his face.
"Whether it is the Buddhist treasure that can restrain evil spirits, the soul-fixing demon pestle, or the golden beheading order in my arms at this time, they are not like rewards, but a deposit for this small life of the official."
Zhan Chengfeng turned around in surprise and looked Lin Ji up and down.
"Interesting, you kid is really interesting!"
Zhan Chengfeng looked at Lin Ji with admiration, and asked curiously: "Since you know that these two things are difficult to get, why don't you protect yourself wisely, leave the things in Qingyang County, and leave on your own?"
"If you do this, Supervisor Tiansi is so confused right now that he may not have time to pay attention to you."
Lin Ji smiled but did not respond.
If Zhan Chengfeng hadn't mentioned it, he would never have thought of this.
Regarding the lowest-level demon hunters and head-catchers, Supervisor Tiansi has never had any regulations such as only corpses can leave.
Anyway, I don’t know any big secrets. If you don’t want to do it anymore, just inform your superiors and leave.
"My horizons are still too narrow. I joined Supervisor Tiansi from the very beginning and have been involved in the past few years. I never thought I could leave." Lin Ji secretly regretted it in his heart.
The place where Jian Tiansi dealt with evil spirits all day turned out to be his comfort zone. So much so that even though he knew he was being plotted, he never thought of running away.
I really regret it.
But now that we are here, there is no need to say these inner thoughts.
Seeing that Lin Ji didn't speak, Zhan Chengfeng thought that he was expressing his attitude, so he continued: "Anyway, since you are here, I will give you an explanation first. The origin of this soul-fixing magic pestle is not simple.
It’s the large formation eye of the demon-suppressing tower outside the capital city.”
"What?!" Lin Ji suddenly raised his head.
"I only learned about this not long ago. The planning for this matter was decided by the higher-ups. I was just following orders."
Zhan Chengfeng shrugged and joked: "I, a third-grade officer, and you, the sixth-grade chief arrester who has not yet taken office, are just pawns."
Hearing this, the bitter smile on Lin Ji's face suddenly became stronger.
"I'd rather not have heard you say that."
"Are you giving up now? It's too late!"
Zhan Chengfeng smiled and said: "In short, your breakthrough speed is much faster than we expected, so the plan has been advanced. You stay in Liangcheng first, and after seven days, take the Demonic Subduing Pestle to Ghost King City to meet Liang
City Ghost King."
"Am I going alone?"
"Oh, just go ahead. If I dare to let you, a small fourth realm person, go alone, I naturally have backup plans. As for what exactly I am going to do, I can't tell you clearly."
With that said, Zhan Chengfeng looked at Lin Ji again and explained with a smile: "It's not that I'm afraid of you, it's just that there is no airtight wall in the world. Although this matter is almost a foregone conclusion and you have not been exposed, everything can only
Afraid of what might happen."
"just in case?"
"What if the news is leaked, and I tell you the whole story, and then your kid is arrested and searched for his soul, wouldn't that be a bad thing?"
Lin Ji's face suddenly darkened a bit.
Zhan Chengfeng murmured a few vague words and prepared to let Lin Ji leave.
But just as he was leaving, Lin Ji suddenly asked out of curiosity: "Master Zhan, has Liangzhou's former chief arrest been promoted? Otherwise, the position of the chief arrest will be a carrot and a pit. He has been replaced, and he must give an explanation."
..”
Halfway through Lin Ji's words, Zhan Chengfeng suddenly sneered twice.
"The public opinion is that he died at the hands of Gui Shuai."
"For the outside world? What's the truth?"
"I broke his neck with my own hands."
Lin Ji suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhan Chengfeng, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Zhan Chengfeng also happened to look like Lin Ji, with a bit of a smile on his face.
"He is a disciple of Taiyi Sect."
"The Taiyi Sect that is number one in the world?"
"That's right, it's the Taiyi Sect known as the leader of the Taoist Sect."
