After calming down and thinking about it, Li Mu felt that he had nothing to worry about.
Although the Netherworld Saint Lord is terrifying, as an elder of the Demon Sect, he would not be interested in one of his subordinates. I am afraid that the death of the evil ghost will never reach his ears.
And that evil ghost is just one of the eighteen ghost generals under King Chu Jiang. King Chu Jiang may not take him seriously.
Ten thousand steps back, even if the King of Chu Jiang pays attention to it, he doesn't know who destroyed him, and Li Mu is safe.
Compared with Li Mu himself, Li Si is more worthy of worry.
The county guard and the county magistrate have their own residences in the city and do not live in the county government office. Li Si should have been taken to the county magistrate's house. I don't know what is happening now...
County Chancellor's Mansion.
Li Si stood in a bright study room. The young man in white retreated to the door. The middle-aged man sat at the desk, sipping the tea in the cup.
The atmosphere was eerily quiet.
The middle-aged man finished drinking the tea, placed the tea cup heavily on the table, and said coldly: "Bold Li Si, what crime do you deserve!"
Li Si raised his head and said, "I don't know, I would like to ask the county magistrate to make it clear."
Chen Juncheng snorted coldly and said, "Do you think I don't know what you did in Yangqiu County?"
Li Si sighed, lowered his head, and said, "Whatever the Lord Commander wants from me, just tell me."
Chen Juncheng had a playful look on his face and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
Li Si walked to a chair and sat down, saying: "What's the joy of life, what's the fear of death? If you want to kill me, I can't stop you, so what's the use of being afraid?"
Chen Juncheng looked at him and said: "Raise your head, I only want to ask you a question."
Li Si looked up at him. Chen Juncheng's eyes seemed to have turned into a deep pool, attracting all his thoughts into it.
Chen Juncheng asked slowly: "In your heart, what kind of person is Miaomiao?"
Li Si's eyes showed a look of reminiscence and he said: "She is the most innocent and kind-hearted woman I have ever seen."
Chen Juncheng's expression softened and he asked, "Don't you think she is ugly?"
Li Si said: "Beauty and ugliness are just superficial appearances. In my heart, she is more beautiful than anyone else."
Chen Juncheng looked at Li Si and suddenly laughed.
He laughed for a while, looked at Li Si again, and said, "I give you two choices."
"First, stay with Miaomiao and make her happy for the rest of her life. Whatever you want, I can give you whatever you want, whether it's money, power, or practice, I can satisfy you..."
Li Si thought for a while and asked: "What about the second one?"
Chen Juncheng said: "Every year during the Qingming Festival, I will ask people to burn a few more sticks of incense on your grave."
Li Si stood up, bowed respectfully to him, and said, "My father-in-law, please accept my respects from my son-in-law!"
…
Li Mu waited in the county government office for half an hour, and then Li Si walked in from outside.
Li Mu stood up and asked, "How is it?"
Li Si looked up at the sky and said: "Farewell to Xiangxiang, Ajin, Xiaohui, Ping'er, and Cuihua..."
"Have you met Miss Miaomiao?"
Li Si shook his head and said: "She is not in the county and will come back in half a month."
Li Mu asked: "Are you really going to give up?"
Li Si sighed and said, "Just take it one step at a time."
"It's good to calm down." Li Mu comforted him and said, "No matter how many women there are outside, it's not as good as having a considerate one at home."
Li Si asked: "What about you?"
"I?"
In Li Mu's mind, Li Qing's face sometimes appeared, and Liu Hanyan's figure appeared sometimes. He thought for a while, waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it..."
…
This time, the county government promoted a total of ten police officers from the local area.
Except for Li Si, the other nine people were all local officials who performed outstandingly and achieved certain achievements in this zombie disaster.
Among these people, there are no disciples from major sects. In local county yamen, disciples from both Buddhist and Taoist sects are the main force of the yamen, while in the county yamen, they are all real officials of the Zhou Dynasty.
Their positions are either passed down from their ancestors, or they are recruited locally by the county government. Their family backgrounds are required to be clean, with three generations of ancestors who have not committed any crimes, and they must be non-sectarian disciples.
Among the ten people, except for Li Mu, Li Si, and the young man, the rest are all over twenty-five years old. Although they have obtained the cultivation of soul condensation, with this kind of qualification, they may not be able to cultivate to the level of condensation in this life.
God is already rare, and there is no possibility of going any further.
In the entire county government, there are six arresters in the realm of gathering gods, who are directly responsible to the county captain.
The six catchers are responsible for different areas in the county. They are also responsible for helping solve cases that cannot be solved by the local county offices in the thirteen counties of Beijun.
Of the ten people who passed the test this time, three were under Capt. Zhao, namely Li Mu, Li Si, and the young man.
Li Mu performed most brilliantly in the third test, and naturally became Capt. Zhao's deputy. Although this deputy had no actual power, Li Mu was quite satisfied with the fact that he did not have to patrol the streets.
Capt. Zhao gave them three days to get familiar with the county and deal with their own affairs. During these three days, Li Mu temporarily stayed at the inn and used the soul power awarded by the county guard and what he later collected from killing evil ghosts.
All refined.
The county town is no different than the county town, and the errands here are more dangerous. He must first improve his strength as much as possible.
Li Si has moved to the county government office in the past three days. Li Mu couldn't come, so he could only ask Yaren to help him find a house for rent near the county government office.
He looked at several of them but didn't find anything he was satisfied with. He thought that if he couldn't find it in a few days, he would just choose one at random.
Inside the county office, Capt. Zhao spread a map on the table and said: "Dongcheng District of the county, as well as Yang County and Yu County to the east, are all our jurisdictions. People are patrolled every day in the city.
Yang County and Yu County will only ask for help from the county government when they encounter something that cannot be handled by the local government. What you have to do on a daily basis is to maintain public security in Dongcheng District and be responsible for the safety of dozens of villages outside the east city..."
Li Mu's responsibilities actually haven't changed much from when he was in Yangqiu County.
The difference is that at that time, he only had to follow Li Qing, but now he has to rush in front.
Nothing happened the whole morning. When Li Mu went to the office at noon and was about to go out for dinner, a government servant who was standing guard at the door walked into the duty room and said: "Captain Li, someone is looking for you."
Apart from the Xu family and his son, Li Mu didn't know anyone in the county town. Could it be that shopkeeper Xu felt that the thank-you gift donated to the county government was not enough to express his gratitude to him, so he gave me a small gift again?
Li Mu walked out expectantly and saw Zhang Shan standing outside the county government office. He was disappointed and said: "Why is it you?"
Zhang Shan frowned: "What's your expression?"
Li Mu walked up and asked doubtfully: "Why are you here in the county?"
Zhang Shan said: "I'm here to see you off."
Li Mu asked: "To whom?"
Zhang Shan pointed to the carriage parked at the yamen gate. Liu Hanyan opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage. Then Wan Wan jumped out, holding a little fox in her arms...
Wanwan ran over quickly and said happily: "Young Master!"
There was also a smile in Xiaobai's eyes.
Li Mu looked at them in shock and asked, "Why are you here in the county?"
Wanwan said with a smile: "Miss said that she is coming to the county to open a branch..."
Li Mu calculated that they would arrive at the county town at noon today. With the speed of the carriage, they should have set off yesterday morning.
In other words, from the time Li Mu left, it only took Liu Hanyan three days from the time he decided to open a branch, arranged everything in Yangqiu County, to packing up and setting off.
He walked up to Liu Hanyan and asked, "Do you want to open a branch here?"
Liu Hanyan glanced at him and said: "There is not much room for expansion of business in Yangqiu County. There are many people in the county and there are many rich people, so business is easy to do..."
Li Mu asked: "Have you chosen the store location?"
Liu Hanyan shook his head and said, "No."
"Have you found someone?"
"No."
"Have you found a place to live?"
"No……"
Li Mu said speechlessly: "You have nothing, how dare you come to the county town like this?"
"Why do you talk so much nonsense? Do you know how to do business or I know how to do business..." Liu Hanyan glared at him and said, "Let's go eat first, I'm going to starve to death..."
After that, she ignored Li Mu and got on the carriage again.
Li Si walked out of the yamen and said meaningfully: "Why are you hesitating? If you encounter someone like this, just marry him..."
