Chapter 10 Painting Skin
Seven days later.
Yang Li went to the Demon Slayer Division.
The twelve-story black jade tower came into view, and it was quite majestic, and just by looking at it from a distance, it was already clear that the oppression was already felt.
"Stop coming."
Doorway.
The two guards' eyes were sharp, and they glanced at Yang Li, "Please show the token." ”
"Huh?"
Yang Li frowned and asked, "Last time I came, I didn't say I wanted a token. ”
"You don't know?"
One of the guards, who had a scar in the corner of his eye, spoke in a puzzled tone.
"What should I know?"
Yang Li asked.
"Four days ago."
The guard answered Yang Li's doubts, "There is an evil 'painted skin' who played the role of an ordinary person who came to the Demon Eradication Division for help, and all the demon hunters present did not notice anything unusual. ”
"Yet."
"This 'painted skin' evil is too bold, and it can't stand the temptation of essence and blood, so it hunts and kills five demon hunters on the spot, and the five demon hunters didn't expect to encounter evil here, they don't even have time to react."
"Died tragically on the spot."
"The 'Second-level Demon Elimination Guard: Master Sikong Lei' took action and killed this 'painted skin' evil and stopped the spread of the disaster, so the new regulations of the Demon Eradication Division, those who do not have a token cannot enter the temple."
"Even if it's to ask for help from the Demon Slayer."
"There is still a series of checks to go through."
"This happened."
Yang Li looked surprised, he had stayed in the mansion these days to familiarize himself with the fragments of the Golden Body Gong and the Pure Heart Technique, and he didn't pay attention to the outside world, "This is my token." ”
"Hmm."
The guard took a closer look at the 'Level 1 Demon Hunter Identity Token' in Yang Li's hand, and after confirming that it was correct, he let him go, "It's okay, let's go in." ”
"Thank you."
Yang Li said.
Entered the main hall on the first floor of the Black Jade Tower of the Demon Slayer Division.
Inside the temple.
Busy.
The number of people is not very large.
Most demon hunters either take the mission and go out, or they recuperate at home, and those who come here are basically handing over the task.
"Hello."
Yang Li lined up and came to the counter, took out the 'Level 1 Demon Hunter Identity Token' in his hand, and handed it to the other party, "I'm Yang Li, I'm ......"
"You are Yang Li?"
The staff member raised his head, glanced at Yang Li a few times, and interrupted Yang Li's words, "I know, Lord Wu Changsheng reminded us that if someone named Yang Li comes, let him go to the fourth layer." ”
"You come with me."
This staff member is a woman with a clean face and a good figure, who is very capable in handling things and speaking, and after glancing at Yang Li, she walked in front to lead the way.
"Yes."
Yang Li didn't ask too much, so he followed.
"Wait a minute."
"Hey, hey!"
"You're gone, what are we going to do? We've got a handover yet. ”
“……”
in the back.
Several demon hunters shouted.
"Everyone, don't be impatient, I'll help you hand over the task."
Behind.
There was another staff member on top.
"Who's that man?"
"I don't know."
"It seems that I heard that it was called 'Yang Li'."
"Interesting."
"The knife he's got in his hand is pretty good."
"It's worth a lot of money!"
“……”
The first-class demon hunters were talking in whispers.
Walk up the stairs.
Yang Li followed the female staff member to the fourth floor of the Black Jade Tower, and on the fourth floor, it was completely different from the three floors below.
There are three floors below.
Basically, a group of demon hunters gathered in a large hall.
But on the fourth floor.
It's just a separate room after another.
Each Demon Slayer has its own office in the Black Jade Tower.
Boom! Boom!
The female staff member came to the door of a room, knocked on the door gently, and after a while, Wu Changsheng's voice came from inside.
"Who?"
Wu Changsheng asked.
"Lord Wu Changsheng, the Yang Li you want to see is already here."
The female staff member said.
"Okay."
Wu Changsheng's tone was a little joyful, "The door is not closed, bring him in." ”
"Yes."
The female staff member pushed open the door.
"Please."
She gestured.
"Hmm."
Yang Li nodded and walked in.
in the room.
The space is quite large, and I don't see anything too special, but there are all the things and office supplies that should be there.
on one wall.
There was a long black knife with a broken one.
But.
Only part of it remains.
The other part is probably missing.
"You're here."
Wu Changsheng sat on the chair, in front of him, there was a pile of documents, raised his head, and glanced at Yang Li, "Sit down first." ”
"Shirley, you go down first."
"Yes."
The female staff member named 'Shirley' nodded, turned and left the room, closing the door with her hand.
"Give me your hand."
Wu Changsheng said.
"This ......"
Yang Li hesitated slightly.
"Hurry up, mother-in-law."
Wu Changsheng glared, got up and grabbed Yang Li's left arm, the speed was too fast, and Yang Li's reaction couldn't dodge.
"Good! Good! Good! ”
Wu Changsheng raised his head, his face was overjoyed, he let go of Yang Li's arm, and laughed out loud, "You are worthy of being a young grandmaster, with excellent talent, in just seven days, you have already introduced the 'Golden Body Gong' and stepped into the level of 'bone refining'." ”
"Excellent! Very good! ”
"Even if you have a grandmaster-level low-grade martial arts foundation, being able to practice the 'Golden Body Skill' in such a short period of time is enough to explain your qualifications."
"This is still thanks to Master Wu for the golden body merit."
Yang Li bowed.
Apparently.
Wu Changsheng could only roughly know Yang Li's cultivation level.
"Of course."
Wu Changsheng said as a matter of course: "If it weren't for me, it would indeed be impossible for you to get a 'mid-grade martial arts' in a short period of time, even if you rely on other methods, it won't be so easy." ”
"By the way, have you heard about the evil 'painted skin' in the Demon Removal Division four days ago?"
Wu Changsheng suddenly changed the topic and asked.
"I've heard a little."
Yang Li replied.
"That evil 'painted skin' isn't dead yet."
Wu Changsheng's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "You must know that 'Master Sikong Lei' is a 'second-level demon slaying guard', his position is higher than mine, and his strength is naturally stronger than mine, and his cultivation is the 'Thundering Heart Method', and he has also cultivated to the refining level of 'internal force', and he has also mastered a martial art that has reached the grandmaster level." ”
"But I still let that evil 'painted skin' escape."
"Still."
"The 'painted skin' has been hit hard, and it has left clues."
"Originally."
"I want you to get involved in investigating the traces of 'Painted Skin'."
"Master Wu, this ......"
Yang Li's scalp was numb.
Boy.
This is an evil cult that can escape from the hands of the 'second-level demon slayer guard', Wu Changsheng actually wants to involve himself in the investigation, and wants to send himself to death?!
"Listen to me."
Wu Changsheng shouted: "Now it seems that I also feel that something is wrong, your strength is okay among the demon hunters, but you don't know much about evil things, and you don't have much experience." ”
"Also."
"It's not a matter of a day or two to investigate 'painted skins.'"
"That's it."
"In the next few days, you will take on the mission, accumulate enough experience in fighting the evil spirit, and when the time is ripe, you will investigate the evil 'painted skin'."
"Don't worry."
"The old man won't let you die, and you're not the only one involved in the investigation of the evil 'painted skin', and if it drags on for a long time, the people in the town will suffer."
"Do you understand?"
"Understood."
Yang Li nodded.
"Go ahead."
Wu Changsheng waved his hand.
"Yes."
Yang Li turned to leave.
"That's right."
Wu Changsheng suddenly shouted: "This investigation of the evil 'painting skin', if you perform well enough to satisfy the old man, the old man can use his greatest authority to get a complete 'high-grade martial arts' for you." ”
"Yang Li."
"The top-grade martial arts is already the best that the old man can get."
"As for whether it can be done."
"That's up to you."
"Yes, I see."
Yang Li nodded, "Thank you, Lord Wu." ”
