Chapter 9

June 24th, the 24th year of Yongyuan, the weather was fine.

Early in the morning, the weather in Yuhang town was slightly cool. Yesterday's light rain really had an effect. I don't know which Dragon Lord was so kind.

Xu Xian stretched her waist and stood at the door, saying in her heart that she hoped that the guy who had nothing to do with more rain had better do it more times, not too much. The drizzle yesterday was very good.

"Pestle at the door and be the door god?" Xu Jiaorong glanced at him angrily: "haven't you come to dinner yet?"

"Here we are. Where are the pig's feet I brought back yesterday?" Xu Xian walked over and looked forward to sweeping the table.

Xu Jiaorong turned her eyes: "I eat pig's feet in the morning. I'm not tired of it. I'm not tired of it."

"No, No." Xu Xian pulled the food with chopsticks and didn't have much appetite.

"Can you eat well?" Xu Jiaorong stared at him: "when I was a child, I wasn't beaten enough. Now the skin is tight again?"

Xu Xian's face turned black and seemed to think of the shadow of his childhood. After a long time, he asked, "sister, where's my brother-in-law? Didn't he come back last night?"

"Yes, I came back and brought back a big pig leg, but I heard that someone came from the imperial court and was called away in the morning..." Xu Jiaorong was worried, but she couldn't help opening her eyes:

"Maybe it's a good thing. Your brother-in-law killed a pig demon last night. If he gets promoted, he may get a raise in his monthly salary."

"You said it would really raise my monthly salary. Should I buy some on the street..."

"Buy what my sister says to buy." Xu Xian definitely agreed.

"Go, I didn't talk to you. I'll eat your meal."

"Oh." Xu Xian

………………

Yuhang County, county yamen.

More than 100 official captors and captains are in place.

Lao Hu stood in the crowd breathing and tears were about to flow down. "Li Tou, who did the imperial court send here? It's said that the sheriff talked to others before we came. Why haven't he come out yet..."

"That's the official of Chang'an. Even if we don't have quality, we have some skills, but we're all small people. Don't worry about that."

"Only when we are summoned later, let the brothers below stabilize the key points and don't talk nonsense." Li Gongfu said it was to reassure the brothers.

But he frowned slightly and felt something bad in his heart.

As one of the few constables in Hangzhou, he has more news than ordinary constables.

In addition, when the sheriff saw him this morning, he said a lot of heart to heart words

In short, I quit the county captain of Yuhang county. I'm old. I must retire. The burden of the county captain will be handed over to you.

From now on, the safety responsibility of Yuhang county will be handed over to you.

And you will be responsible for communicating with the adults sent by the imperial court.

The prefect said something very obscure, but he also told Li Gongfu from the side that these guys from far away are not simple. Try not to provoke them.

"But how can I be a county Lieutenant?" Li Gongfu's face was confused and disbelieved. This is a prefect. He has something

"The sheriff laughed. Yuhang county is still your Yuhang county. We will all be your subordinates from now on. We will make some arrangements only when something difficult happens."

The sound came from a distance.

Without much thought, Li Gongfu saw the sheriff walking ahead, followed by five men and women who were not too old.

They were dressed in uniform black green shirts, and the sleeves were also tattooed with snow-white dragon head, quadruped, Baize.

See here.

Li Gongfu's complexion changed slightly, and he thought about it secretly in his heart.

Demon division.

One of the four mysterious institutions of the imperial court, they are responsible for all sudden and strange events such as demons and ghosts in the territory.

But the former demon division often didn't appear so aboveboard. It was always hidden in the dark. No one even knew where their official address was.

Although I have also dealt with, I have not contacted too much.

Today, they not only appear, but also make it clear that they want to be their immediate boss?

"Is Yuhang County in trouble?" Li Gongfu thought.

meanwhile.

A young man with ferocious claw marks on his eyebrows stepped forward. He glanced at the people with kinder eyes, smiled and said, "my name is Zhen Youqian, my colleagues."

"From today on, I will be your boss and be responsible for the safety of the people in Yuhang county with you."

Many constables were very unhappy with the airborne officer, but no one spoke.

Zhen Yuqian liked this effect very much. He said, "by the way, who is Li Gongfu?"

"My subordinates are here." Li Gongfu stepped forward.

"Very good, very good, you have been promoted."

"From now on, you will be the sheriff and be responsible for direct communication with us." After Zhen Youqian finished, he couldn't help but exclaim, "but what I didn't expect is that Lord Li is still a Wupin Wufu. It's really a rare surprise."

"Lord Zhen flattered me." Li Gongfu tried not to be humble or arrogant.

"Mr. Li, you're welcome. After you're promoted to a county lieutenant, we're the same product. In fact, we don't divide up or down." Zhen Youqian smiled and said, "I'll come here for the first time and ask Lord Li to help me a lot in the future."

"I belong to my colleagues, so I should."

…………

Li Fu.

"It's almost like this. Yuhang town is not peaceful recently. You should be more careful when you go out. You'd better not go out at night." Li Gongfu recounted what he could say.

"Hey, it's only been a good life for more than 20 years. Why is it not peaceful again?" Xu Jiaorong sighed, then immediately turned her eyes to Xu Xian.

Xu Xian was gnawing at the pig's feet. When he noticed his eyes, he looked up blankly.

"I'm talking about you. Don't go out at night. If you go out and break your dog leg, hum." Xu Jiaorong's words were not polite at all.

"No, no ~" Xu Xian snorted.

"Well, Chinese... There may be a little trouble in the future." Li Gongfu hesitated when he opened his mouth.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, after asking about some unusual cases in the past two days, Xu Xian can't hide..."

Pop.

When Xu Jiaorong patted the table, her eyes were angry.

The two men immediately put down their chopsticks and sat up straight.

"Good, good..."

"Come on, you Li, tell me what's the matter with my brother. What's the meaning of being unable to hide? Did he steal it? Robbed it? Or did he insult the lady of the family?"

“？” Xu Xian blinked and said that even if it was impolite, it was also those little sisters who impolited me.

Xu Jiaorong didn't look at him, but rolled her sleeves and said angrily, "even if he really plays a rogue, can't I propose marriage at someone else's house now?"

"No, I didn't mean that..." Li Gongfu swallowed his saliva, and there was no arrogance of Wupin Wufu.

"Oh." Xu Jiaorong sneered: "what do you mean?"

Li Gongfu organized the language in his mind and said carefully:

"Xu... Han Wen, he will become a non staff member of the County Yamen in the future, and may participate in some things to subdue demons and eliminate demons."

"What?"

"Well, you Li Gongfu, you're killing me..." Xu Jiaorong's tears flowed down in an instant. She ran over with a fist and kept crying, "I'm just a brother in Chinese, a brother. The old Xu family is the only one..."

"I didn't agree when you taught him to practice martial arts. Wouldn't you let him study at ease?"

Li Gongfu opened his mouth and wanted to say... When he first taught Xu Xian to practice martial arts, you were stubborn but Xu Xian. Did you beg me to teach him? He also said that it was just for the sake of strengthening his body.

In particular,

Your brother

Something's wrong with him.

He has been wrong since he was a child, and he has a strange interest in doing things.

Since he practiced martial arts, I have dealt with him less... Hundreds of things about demons and ghosts, although I have rarely seen the bodies of those demons

But all the people in Yuhang know some of these rumors

How can I hide it from you?

You're the only one who doesn't know.

At this time, Li Gongfu deliberately handed Xu Xian a look for help.

Xu Xian picked her eyebrows, put her hand into her arms and took out a round and luminous thing with her two fingers.

moment

Li Gongfu's eyes lit up and he lost an expression... I'll take care of your sister's business. It's none of your business. You can do whatever you like.
