After returning to the county town, Li Mu finally had a few days of peace and quiet.
All the police officers who went to Yang County this time will have half a month's vacation after returning. In the past month, most of the time was spent on business trips. Li Mu finally had enough time to spend time with Liu Hanyan and Wan at home.
Night.
However, after he was free, Liu Hanyan became busy.
Yunyan Pavilion has been extremely busy these days. The teahouse has an endless stream of customers from morning to night.
In the past half month, the vicious spirit of Yang County has descended into the world, and its deeds of bloodbathing the county government offices, killing dog officials, and killing evil officials have spread throughout the entire North County.
The Beijun government did not deliberately conceal this matter, and it was not difficult for the people to find out the inside story.
According to legend, the evil spirit was just an ordinary woman who was wrongly accused by the dog official of Yang County because she listened to "The Injustice of Dou E" at the Yunyan Pavilion Tea House in the county. Before she died, she imitated Dou E, pointing to the sky and shouting curses.
A vow to take revenge as a ghost after death...
Her resentment, coupled with her vow, moved heaven and earth, causing heaven and earth to pity her. She actually turned into a ghost to avenge this blood, which was very satisfying.
After the news came out, countless people poured into Yunyan Pavilion, calling their names to listen to "The Injustice of Dou E". Li Mu was originally hesitant, but Capt. Zhao personally came to Yunyan Pavilion and conveyed the order of the county governor.
Beijun not only wanted to vigorously publicize the story of "The Injustice of Dou E", but also adapted it into a drama and sung it. It is said that behind this matter, there was the intention of Her Majesty the Queen.
From this, Li Mu saw Her Majesty the Queen's determination to clean up the officialdom.
She wanted to use the events of "The Injustice of Dou E" and Xu Xiaoyu to shock the local officials in the 16 counties on the mainland, so that the parents and officials in these places should always respect the lives of the people and reduce the occurrence of wrongful and unjust cases.
This move is conducive to uniting people's hearts and minds, and is also conducive to the concentration of people's thoughts.
The magistrate of Yang County was also set up as a negative example by her.
His kneeling stone statue was erected in front of the Yang County government office. It was reviled by the people and will be remembered forever by history.
This move caused the imperial court's public opinion in Yang County and even Bei County to rise sharply to an unprecedented height.
At the national temple in the county town, the people who come to worship every day line up several miles away from the entrance of the national temple. Some people even stay outside the next night, just so that they can be the first to enter the next day...
In recent days, the popularity of incense in the national temple has exceeded that of any other temple or Taoist temple.
And Li Mu also experienced what it was like to be famous.
The North County government obviously wanted to follow the holy will and vigorously publicize this matter.
But if the cause of this matter is traced, it is actually a scandal in Beijun and even the imperial court. After all, this incident happened in Beijun. Strictly speaking, it was due to the poor governance of the county magistrate and the county magistrate. If the county could restrain the magistrate of Yang County earlier,
There would never be such an unjust case.
So they had no choice but to find another way to push Li Mu out and create an image of an upright little official who was not afraid of power, dared to resist darkness, and fought against ugly forces, which shifted the focus just right.
Dou E’s injustice was told by Li Mu.
The evil spirit was born because of Dou E's injustice.
It happened that Li Mu was an agent of the county government and a member of the court. He could represent both the county government and the court.
In this way, as long as the court handles the case properly and does not arouse too much public resentment, Li Mu's light will be able to overshadow the darkness of Yangxian County Government.
In fact, this case, which was originally Beijun's fault and a stain on the court, turned into a merit worth flaunting and a means to gather people's hearts.
Li Mu didn't want to be high-profile, but when he walked on the street and the people around him looked at him with admiration, and there was a steady stream of thought power condensing on him without his taking the initiative to guide him, he had nothing to say.
This kind of mental power comes from the trust of the people. If it can be maintained for a long time, it will be a very powerful force.
Even a mortal with such powerful telepathy can make evil spirits retreat.
Li Mu walked to the gate of the county government office. When two government officials saw him, they immediately said, "I've seen Capt. Li!"
After returning to the county government, Lieutenant Shen was promoted to Li Mu. Currently, he does not have any arrests under his command and is directly responsible to Lieutenant Shen.
Li Mu smiled at the two of them and walked into the Yamen.
A government official looked at him and said with admiration: "On the first day Li Captou entered the county government office, I knew he had courage, but I didn't know that he was so courageous. Even if he scolded the court, he would dare to scold heaven and earth. …”
Another yamen servant said with envy: "Captain Li is really a winner in life. He has been promoted to Catcher after only two or three months in the yamen. He is accompanied by so many beauties. It is said that the female shopkeeper of Yunyan Pavilion is Bai Yao. The king's two daughters are both his women..."
Li Mu walked into the front hall, and Lieutenant Shen was drinking as expected. He looked up and saw Li Mu, his spirits were slightly lifted, and he waved, "Li Mu is here, come and have a drink with me..."
"No, no, no..." Li Mulian waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I'm actually here to receive the reward..."
"I would have forgotten if you didn't tell me." Commander Shen put down the wine bottle and said, "You killed four ghost generals under King Chu Jiang. I have already reported to the governor and allowed you to enter the Dizi Room to pick out four things. , I guess the court will also reward this, but I’m afraid it will take some time..."
Li Mu was already familiar with Xuanzifang's Treasure Pavilion in the county government, but this was his first time visiting Dizifang.
There are much fewer things here than in Xuanzi Room.
There are only a few of them on the shelf where the talismans are placed, and they are all earth-level talismans.
Under normal circumstances, only those who practice Creation and Dongxuan can write earth-level talismans, and earth-level talismans are divided into three levels: upper, middle, and lower. The talismans here are all low-grade earth-level talismans.
Lieutenant Shen introduced them one by one: "This one is the Zixiao Thunder Talisman, which contains a type of thunder technique that can kill fourth-level monsters. It should not be of much use to you. After all, you can do it without relying on the Talisman." Kill the ghost generals in the fierce soul realm."
After refining the soul power of the four ghost generals, Li Mu's three souls have been very condensed and can advance to concentration at any time. When the time comes, he can also release purple thunder with his own magic power. Of course, he will not use the opportunity. On this purple sky thunder talisman.
Commander Shen continued: "This is a sword talisman. There is a sword technique sealed in it. A strike from a strong person in the creation realm can also kill someone in the fourth realm. You shouldn't have to think about it."
"This is a five-element escape talisman. If you activate this talisman, you can perform the five-element escape technique for an hour."
"This is an earth-level divine walking talisman. It is activated by the God-gathering cultivation. Its wind control speed is comparable to Dongxuan, but it can only last for half an hour."
…
Commander Shen introduced them one by one, and after careful consideration, Li Mu chose the low-level magical talisman.
The earth-level attack talismans can exert the power of a strong man in creation and can instantly kill the fourth realm. However, with the help of Mrs. Chu, Li Mu can also defeat the fourth realm. All the attack talismans, for him, It's all useless.
On the contrary, this earth-level magical talisman has a great effect on him.
If he had had this talisman with him that day, he would not have been chased by the number one ghost general for so long, and would have needed to seek help from the White Demon King to get out of trouble.
After choosing the talisman, Li Mu looked at the row of magic weapons.
The value of earth-level magic weapons is higher than that of talismans and elixirs of the same level. After all, the latter two are disposable. If the magic weapon is taken care of, it can be given away to several owners.
Therefore, the magic weapons placed in the Dizi Fang are actually only high-grade Xuan-level treasures.
Of course, this level of magic weapon is already much better than Li Mu's Bai Yi. Bai Yi is only a low-level Xuan-level magic weapon, but its significance to Li Mu cannot be measured by the ordinary level.
Li Mu did not choose a weapon, but chose the same auxiliary flying boat magic weapon.
Although the sword is elegant, it cannot carry people. The speed of the flying boat is not slow and can be large or small. It is a walking tool that is very popular among practitioners.
Thinking that in his free time, he could use it to carry Liu Hanyan and Wanwan Xiaobai to travel around the mountains and rivers, and they could sleep on the boat when they were sleepy and tired, Li Mu chose it without hesitation.
Lieutenant Shen walked to the next row of wooden shelves and continued to introduce: "These elixirs can be roughly divided into four categories. The first category is for strengthening the body and cultivating the body and increasing mana; the second category is generally used for healing; the third category is for healing. The three types of elixirs are used for fighting, and when exploded, they are extremely powerful; the last type are for special purposes, such as soul nourishing elixirs, demon transforming elixirs, etc., and you will not need them."
Li Mu picked up a milky white porcelain bottle and asked, "What is the Demon Transformation Pill?"
Lieutenant Shen Jun explained: "This elixir can remove the demonic energy from monsters. If practitioners don't deliberately open their eyes, they will not be able to discover their identity as monsters. Some high-ranking officials in Zhongjun who like monsters will make them take this pill." Dan, so as not to be accidentally injured by practitioners..."
Li Mu put the pill away and said, "I want this."
With this elixir, Xiaobai's demonic aura can be completely eliminated. She no longer has to hide her aura and stay at home every day. She can happily go shopping and listen to music with Wanwan.
Lieutenant Shen glanced at him and said, "If you want it, one pill may not be enough, right?"
