In the back garden of the Marshal's Mansion, which is surrounded by quiet trees.
Guards with guns stood upright, guarding vital points in different corners.
Marshal Chen Youguang is a commander in name, but in fact, with the strength of the legion under his control now, it cannot reach this level.
In the entire Big Moon, he was only the smallest among the many warlords. However, he was able to gain a firm foothold because of some special relationships and connections.
He has a close relationship with one of the big warlords, Xiao Rong, and he himself belongs to the Yue Zhongyun warlords. Therefore, the other small and medium-sized warlords around him also give him face, and there is not much conflict.
The Yun clan warlords refer to several military students who studied with Allied Marshal Song Chengtao in Yunzhou.
After the anti-foreign enemy alliance dispersed, these military trainees gradually formed several warlord groups with varying strengths and weaknesses.
After Song Chengtao passed away due to illness, the Yun clan warlords lost their restraints and developed even more rapidly, gradually evolving into one of the strongest power groups in the Dayue region today.
Chen Youguang is only fifty years old. He has a resolute face and a dark complexion. He looks a bit frail.
But a pair of eyes can give people a sense of sharpness like a knife.
In this era, the highest official who can stand side by side with monsters and rule a city with a population of hundreds of thousands, no matter whether he is strong or not, will never lack courage.
He would marry Yun Si from the Nine Demons Association as his wife. It wasn't that he didn't know that Yun Si was a demon, but the two of them truly loved each other.
In fact, the reason why Ningzhou issued regulations restricting the hunting of demons was also the work of their couple.
The details of this regulation were written and arranged by Yun Si himself.
At this time, beside Chen Youguang, Yun Si was carefully supporting him, with a hint of hidden worry on his pretty face.
As a demon in disguise, Yun Si's true form is a white fox. After her transformation, her appearance and figure are of the highest quality, and she truly loves Chen Youguang.
Unfortunately, there is a huge reproductive isolation between humans and demons.
Over the years, she still failed to give birth to a son and a half daughters for Chen Youguang.
Seeing Chen Youguang gradually getting older, Yun Si kept thinking about a way to fulfill this wish.
only
"Master Mi Fang has some reputation far and wide, but the skills he showed before were only ordinary. I originally thought he was just a charlatan. I didn't expect that this time, he actually has some real talent." Yun Si said softly.
"If he is really capable, how about leaving him here?" Chen Youguang said softly.
"No problem." Yun Si nodded, "But the first step is to find Xuedong and Lu Jiu. Especially Xuedong, I have used that little girl for so many years. I originally planned to use it to make you blood food to extend your life.
But it can’t just disappear.”
"Thank you for your hard work." A soft look flashed in Chen Youguang's eyes, and he held Yun Si's hand tightly.
"Report, the Zhong family and Master Mi Fang have been waiting in the front hall."
A soldier approached at a trot and shouted a report.
"Then let's go take a look." Chen Youguang nodded and walked towards the front hall first.
Their so-called headache is just an excuse. The real purpose is to see if this rice house is really an expert who has recently hunted many demons.
Yun Si sighed.
In fact, she didn't care whether Lu Jiu disappeared or not. That guy was seeking death everywhere and he would be killed sooner or later.
It's normal to disappear now.
Although they are both transformed demons, she does not consider those savage and stupid guys to be her own race.
Except for Chen Youguang, she wouldn't care if the other demons died.
only
Yun Si was about to follow her and went to the front hall with her husband Chen Youguang to see the situation.
She had just taken a step with her right foot, and suddenly an indescribable feeling of creepiness suddenly came to her heart.
Yun Si's body trembled, and he froze in place and stopped moving.
As a white fox, she is not the strongest in the Nine Demons Association, but she is definitely the best at saving lives.
As a fox demon, and a powerful fox demon with hundreds of years of cultivation, in addition to a series of magic spells, she also has unique talents.
This innate ability is short-term foresight.
It was this innate ability that allowed her to escape many fatal dangers.
And now, this ability is activated instinctively. She feels the danger. The danger for herself!
"Tell the commander that I'm feeling a little unwell, so I won't see the guests for now. I'm going to rest for a while." Yun Si decisively followed his instinctive warning, turned around and whispered to the soldiers on the side.
"yes!"

The Marshal's Mansion is located in the far west of Ningzhou City, near the corner of the city wall.
The overall shape is square, and the interior area is vast, equivalent to the size of five football fields.
Among them, the front hall, the middle part and the backyard are three distinct parts.
At this time, it is at the main entrance of the Marshal's Mansion.
In front of Wangji's breakfast bun shop diagonally across the street, there are a few simple tables and chairs.
A burly man with a height of two meters, wearing a simple gray and black gown, holding two meat buns in his hand, slowly eating them bite by bite.
The strong man would look in the direction of the Marshal's Mansion from time to time.
Since there are demons and spiritual powers, it is very likely that there will be formations and the like.
After all, it is a grand marshal's mansion, with jurisdiction over hundreds of thousands of Ningzhou people.
If there was no defense, he would have been unable to defend himself and would have been assassinated by other forces.
Therefore, Wei He came over in advance to visit the spot and observe the surroundings, which was considered to be cautious.
After all, he has discovered that because he dare not let go of his true energy, he can only rely on his senses.
Therefore, the range and acuity of perception are far less refined and broad than before.
In addition, he is completely unfamiliar with the demon system.
Many magic spells cannot be felt at all, just like the little girl demon suddenly flashed in front of him with magic spells, and he didn't even notice it.
This is the disadvantage caused by the different systems.
To the demon, he is now like a deaf person. Even if the other party uses concealment magic in front of him, he cannot sense it.
Unless he maintains the state of entering the true world.
‘We must master and thoroughly study the demon power system as soon as possible. In this way, we can find a way to replenish our true strength and true blood. Otherwise, it will be too uncomfortable to be tied up like this.’
Wei He made up his mind, stuffed the last bun into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it.
He glanced at the Marshal's Mansion. From left to right, all he could see were the white and red-tiled high walls of the Marshal's Mansion.
Occasionally, passers-by would come closer and be persuaded to leave by the patrolling guards with guns drawn.
Wei He noticed that the firearms in the hands of these soldiers seemed a bit primitive.
However, it has completely lost the characteristics of the biological weapons of the past, and has been replaced by a completely mechanical structure.
It was almost the same as the old-fashioned rifle he had seen in his previous life.
Without biological structures, many places must be replaced by purely mechanical structures. This seems to have led to a major setback in thermal weapons throughout the era.
'I'll have to find a chance to test my power later.'
Wei He stood up.
"Boss pays."
"Thank you for your patronage. The total is five cents." The old boss, with a sweat towel on his shoulders, came closer and took the copper coins handed over by Wei He.
Wei He patted the gown on his body. His current look has perfectly blended into this era.
After leaving the bun shop, he slowly walked around the Marshal's Mansion.
In order not to cause a big commotion, arouse the vigilance of more demons, and avoid unnecessary consumption of true energy.
Wei He planned to take action as covertly as possible.
He walked half a circle around the wall, and after confirming that there was no formation, he came to a deserted street.
Taking advantage of the moment when the patrolling guard just passed by.
Whoosh!
He jumped up, flew lightly over the three-meter-high white wall, and landed steadily on the grass in the back garden inside.
'The next step is to find the warlord leader here, cooperate with him, and capture enough demons to use as research materials.'
Wei He came with good intentions.
I believe that the warlord leader will definitely be happy to cooperate with him.
Of course, it doesn't matter if he's not happy. Give him a beating, make him suffer first, and then promise not to hit him as long as he cooperates. This way, you'll be happy if you give him a little sweetness.
Wei He also considered becoming the leader of the warlord himself, but after all, there were too many trivial matters, so it was better to support someone as his spokesperson to handle the trivial matters.
In this way, the warlord's manpower and material resources can be used. He can also hide himself behind the scenes, and have a lot of time to study and explore his own path.
Wouldn't it be better?
After landing, he looked around and saw a maid walking by on the stone corridor in front of him.
"Hello, may I ask where the commander is now?" Wei He took the initiative to ask with a smile on his face.
"I have an appointment with the Marshal before, and I am a visiting guest. I just got sidetracked, so now I want to go directly to see the Marshal. I wonder if you can lead the way for me?" He looked sincere and calm.
There is no intruder’s nervousness or worry at all.
The maid blinked her eyes and looked at Wei Heyi's well-dressed gown. Her temperament was not that of an ordinary person, and she had the aura of a superior person.
She couldn't help but let down some of her vigilance.
This is a place close to the back garden. Those who are allowed by the commander to come and go here at will must be distinguished guests with extraordinary status.
She never thought that with patrols outside and guards everywhere inside, there was the possibility that someone could enter inside silently.
"Okay, guests, please come with me to the front hall. The Marshal is meeting the guests in the front hall."
"Thank you very much." Wei He smiled and nodded.
Then, under the guidance of the maid, he swaggered along the stone road guarded by many soldiers.
When the soldiers saw the maid leading the way, they thought it was an honored guest whom the commander had allowed in. They didn't even look at him sideways.
After walking through the cloister, courtyard, and small lake, we were about to reach the front hall and the living room.
On the steps of a forest corridor filled with golden fallen leaves, Wei He suddenly paused and looked at a corner.
There, just outside the fence, was a black car, slowly starting up and driving away into the distance.
And sitting in the car was Yun Si, who just felt bad.
Wei He narrowed his eyes and retracted his thoughts. The main goal now is to capture the warlord leader in Yunzhou first. We will talk about the rest later.
"What's the matter, Mr. Wei?" the maid turned around and asked with some confusion.
"It's okay. Keep going." Wei He turned around and smiled.
"yes."
Soon, the two of them entered the reception hall of the front hall, one after the other.
The spacious hall is more than twenty meters long and wide.
The exquisite crystal chandelier in the shape of a lotus exudes bright and soft yellow light on the ceiling.
Single red leather sofas are surrounded by a low wooden table in the middle.
On the surrounding white walls, there are various pictures of flowers collected by Chen Youguang.
There is also a wall, and the entire wall is a vermilion fireplace.
There is also a well-arranged small bar in the corner.
As soon as Wei He entered the door, he stepped on the soft and thick wool carpet and looked at the people sitting on the sofa in the center.
Chen Youguang, Zhong Jiuquan and his son, and Master Mi Fang came with them.
He glanced around and immediately locked onto the tall, thin middle-aged man wearing an exquisite black military uniform.
