Chapter 312: Approaching Crisis
After Chief Li left, Qian Guis figure emerged in the hall.
Wang Yi respectfully said, Master Qian Gui, I have spread the news about the corpse demon disaster in Shuliang City according to your request.
But I dont understand, why did you insist on keeping it a secret before, and now you want to make it public? Wang Yi asked.
You just need to focus on your own tasks.

After a while, Qian Gui spoke again, Doing this is also beneficial for you. You can enhance your cultivation by absorbing the Death Qi from the Black Pearl. The more Death Qi, the faster your cultivation will improve. And many, many people will die in Shuliang City next.
You seem to look very tired. Cang Feilan asked. She was curious about what the other party had done last night.
If you rock a bed all night, youd be tired too. Qin Feng raised his arm and massaged his temples, only to feel a soreness in his arm.
Rock a bed? Cang Feilan blinked, with a bit of confusion in her tone. It took her a while to react, and she glared at the other person with shame and anger.
No wonder when she went out for breakfast just now, many people cast strange looks at her.
Is this what was said last night, having an impact on ones reputation?
But the object of the misunderstanding was Qin Feng, and it didnt seem so unacceptable.
With such absurd thoughts in her mind, Cang Feilans ears turned slightly red. Then, steering the conversation, she asked, What should we do next?
Qin Feng picks up his teacup and takes a sip in an attempt to dispel his sleepiness, Currently, our options are limited. We must wait for Amu to bring reinforcements.
Currently, the whereabouts of Si Zheng and Zhang Tiannan are unknown. The last place we saw them was in the Demon Slaying Department. I also asked some people in the city and learned that after leaving the Demon Slaying Department, they headed north.
North of the Demon Slaying Department is where the county magistrates office is located. I think they probably encountered something unexpected there.
There is also the Eternal Shrine in the city, where there are many mysteries. Whether Yang Mang, the leader of the Tiger-Headed Barbarians, has turned into a corpse demon, the answer may be there. But with the strength of the two of us, if we venture to explore, it is very likely that we will never return.
This will have to wait a little longer. After careful consideration, it would be safest to go to the magistrates office to explore the matter through the lifting of the blocked areas. Qin Feng analyzed.
When will we set out?
Later in the evening, I need to take a short nap first. Qin Feng stood up, came to the bedside, and then lay down heavily.
Seeing this, Cang Feilans pale blue eyes widened. She had just recently laid on this bed!
Qin Fengs nose twitched slightly, and there was still a faint feminine fragrance on the pillow. It didnt take long before he fell into a deep sleep.
Among the vast corpses, Qin Feng seemed to see the bodies of himself and Miss Cang.
He woke up suddenly, breathing heavily.
Whats wrong? Cang Feilan asked with concern.
Qin Feng was still immersed in the dreamlike scene, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
The existence inside the coffin, if not mistaken, must be the leader of the Tiger-Headed Barbarians, Yang Mang without a doubt.
The nine chains must not be allowed to break; otherwise, things would become uncontrollable!
We cant wait any longer; we must do something.
Qin Feng and the others arrived at the county magistrates mansion and met Wang Yi again.
The latter asked, Sir Qin, what brings you here? Please feel free to speak.
The people infected with the corpse poison have recovered. I would like to inquire when Sir Wang can allow them to reunite with their families. Qin Feng replied.
If Sir Qin makes such a judgment, I can release them at any time.
Surprisingly easy to talk to? This was somewhat beyond Qin Fengs expectations.
If it werent for Master Qins arrival, Im afraid I would still be kept in the dark, thinking that the people in the city were infected with a plague.
Fortunately, Master Qin discovered it in time, otherwise Shuliang City would really be in great danger.
Speaking of which, as the magistrate, I did neglect my duties a bit.
Feigning surprise, Qin Feng continued, Where would you get such an idea, Lord Wang? If it werent for you, the situation would have been uncontrollable. Shuliang City is fortunate to have you.
Wang Yi, who was usually stern, smiled slightly at these words.
Seeing this, Cang Feilan, standing on the side with an expressionless face, quietly watched Qin Feng telling lies with his eyes wide open.
After chatting for a while, Wang Yi sipped his tea and said, Lord Si and the others went out for help, but they havent returned yet. Helpless, I had to discuss with Chief Li from the Demon Slaying Department. We sent someone to the nearby Huarong Road relay station to report the appearance of the corpse demon in Shuliang City. I believe news will come back soon.
At these words, a trace of shock crossed Qin Fengs eyes.
This old fox actually took the initiative to go out to ask for help. How could he? How dare he?! Then what was he hiding before?
Cang Feilan also frowned slightly
