Chapter 20: The Candle Dragon Division Comes Together
"The apricot blossom girl is soft, the apricot blossom girl is warped, the apricot blossom girl's thin waist is so wonderful~"
In the early morning of the next day, Liu Shi, who had just come out of the Chunhualou overnight, hummed a little song and walked in Qulan Town with proud steps.
"Yo, Lao Liu spent the night in Chunhualou again?"
"Haha, you need to relax after handling the case."
"Liu Zhutou, you are in Chunhualou for thirty days a month and twenty days in Chunhualou, do you live in your pocket?"
"Hey, don't ask me if my waist bag can resist it, go and ask the girls in Chunhualou if they can resist my big horse saber!"
"Hahaha! Then I'm looking for a chance to ask Lao Liu for advice! ”
"Well said! Say! ”
Along the way, when the people of Qulan Town saw Liu Shi, they all greeted him enthusiastically, and they had a good friendship with this conscientious Qulan Town.
As for the fact that Liu Shi returned to Chunhualou night and night, everyone was not surprised.
Liu Shi has no wife and no children, and he doesn't have any bad habits, the only thing he likes is the girls in Chunhualou, plus Liu Shi is frank and, never hiding anything, and everyone is just ridiculing.
Just as Liu Shi was passing by the breakfast stall and was about to buy two fried dough sticks and a bowl of soy milk on the way, a young catcher quickly found Liu Shi and hurried to his side, panting.
"In the past, I have forgotten the truth that I taught you in the past, 'Mount Tai collapses in front and the color does not change'?" Liu Shi reprimanded.
The most important thing in this line of catching fast is to be calm!
"Old ...... Boss, oh no......"
Although the young man blushed and panted to the point that he couldn't speak, he still reluctantly said to himself.
"Don't panic when you encounter something, come, deep ~ exhale ~ inhale ~"
Liu Shi patted his little brother's shoulder with concern, and thoughtfully helped him smooth out.
What demons and monsters haven't you seen in the past two days? They are all people who have seen big scenes, calm down!
"Thank you, Boss!" The young catcher finally relented and said gratefully.
"Say, what's wrong? Shouldn't there be ghosts and monsters committing crimes again? ”
"No, boss, there is no case, it's someone from the Candle Dragon Division who is here!" The young catcher shook his head and said. "When I reported my meritorious service to Brother Huai Zhi'an, the Candle Dragon Division found that there were too many demon and ghost cases in the town in the past few days, and felt that there might be something abnormal, so they sent someone down."
"And...... And when the lord of the Candle Dragon Division heard that the boss had encountered a case involving ghosts, not only did he not report it to the Candle Dragon Division, but instead asked the little brother Huai Zhi'an for help, and the big man of the Candle Dragon Division was very angry and ordered the boss to go to see him quickly! ”
"What!?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Shi was shocked.
"Why didn't you say it earlier!?"
Liu Shi patted his head, his face was gloomy: "It's over, it's over, the group of guys in the Candle Dragon Division are arrogant, backed by the Immortal Dynasty, and look down on the cultivators of other sects, this was found that I didn't look for the Candle Dragon Division when I encountered a demon crime, but instead found Huai Zhi'an, Huai Zhi'an is still a small Taoist priest in the mountains, and I and Huai Zhi'an are both unlucky!" ”
To be honest, if it is not necessary, not only Liu Shi, but normal people will not choose to seek the help of the Candle Dragon Division, because everyone in the Immortal Dynasty knows that the people of the Candle Dragon Division are highly capable, but the people of the Candle Dragon Division have a higher morale than that body.
It is modest to say that the nostrils look at people's mouths, in the eyes of the Candle Dragon Division, except for His Majesty Emperor Qin, who is high above, the whole world is an inferior existence, and the other immortal sect disciples who are also the nine immortal sects are not taken seriously by them, not to mention the other second-rate and even low-rate cultivation sects under the nine immortal sects.
Therefore, as long as it is not an emergency and special situation, few people will choose to seek help from the Candle Dragon Division in the first place.
So what's the difference between being in a hurry to find a candle dragon division and a stinky uncle riding on his head to?
Except for the flowers that occasionally play in the Spring Flower Building, Liu Shi has no hobby of being ridden on his head.
"Boss, boss, don't panic when you encounter something, deep ~ exhale ~ suck ~" The young catcher reminded with concern.
"Suck you up with a hammer!" Liu Shi is angry and does not fight in one place.
At this point, Liu Shi could only take one step at a time, and after calming down, he commanded:
"I'll go to the county government first to stabilize the people of the Candle Dragon Division, and then go to inform Huai Zhi'an, so that he can stay in the Taoist temple for the past few days, and don't come to the town if he has nothing to do."
Liu Shi knows Huai Zhi'an's temperament, in Huai Zhi'an's own words, he is an "otaku", he didn't go down the mountain for half a year last time, and it's no problem to stay on the mountain for a few days this time, right?
Seeing that the young man was leaving quickly, Liu Shi turned around with a calm face and went straight to the yamen.
But when Liu Shi saw the figure sitting in the yamen, he secretly said "not good" in his heart, but then the emotion on Liu Shi's face was collected and turned into a bright smile.
"Yo, isn't this a young man? What is the wind that blows you? ”
In the yamen, a young man sat calmly on Liu Shi's favorite Nanmu chair, and on either side stood two rows of Liu Shi's subordinates.
The catchers all lowered their heads and did not dare to speak, and the atmosphere was silent and solemn.
The young man was dressed in brocade and red robe, stepping on auspicious cloud boots, his hair was tied up high, his eyebrows and eyes were slender, and the corners of his mouth were downward, looking a little cold and arrogant.
On the waist of the young man, a jade carved waist plate swayed, and on the jade plate, there was a carving master with a delicate carving knife carved a lifelike, cloud-driven "white dragon".
Now the man rested his left hand on the chair, his fingertips unconsciously tapping on the armrest, and his right hand supported his cheek with one hand, and his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was closing his eyes.
After hearing Liu Shi's quick walk and the familiar greeting, the young man opened his eyes and fell on Liu Shi.
For a moment, Liu Shi felt as if he had returned to the time when he first faced the tiger in the mountains when he was practicing martial arts in his childhood, and the unparalleled pressure instantly swept from those indifferent eyes.
The smile on Liu Shi's face froze, his footsteps stopped, his forehead was bruised, his teeth were clenched, and cold sweat slid down his cheeks.
Even though Liu Shi could be called a "master" in the rivers and lakes, in front of the Linghai Realm monks, he was so intimidated that he didn't dare to move with just one look.
Seeing that the boss was being bullied like this, the other people around him, especially the younger ones, blushed angrily, and their hands touched the saber on their waists intentionally or unintentionally.
And the young man didn't seem to be aware of it, still staring indifferently at the willow stone in front of him.
"Master Sang, you ...... What does this do? Could it be ...... Did these bunnies run into you? ”
Seeing that the atmosphere was frozen, Liu Shi tried his best to break free from the pressure of the mountain in the air around him, with a smile on his face, and squeezed out two words from his throat with difficulty.
"Then I'll give it to you...... It's not a loss. ”
Seeing that Liu Shi could speak in this situation, a trace of surprise flashed in the young man's eyes, but he just blinked, and then he reverted to indifference.
But as the young man blinked, the pressure around Liu Shi that had imprisoned him faded like a tide.
Liu Shi clutched his neck, like a drowning sea fish, gasping for breath.
Without waiting for Liu Shi to take a breath and rest, the young man spoke again: "Liu Shi, your Qulan Town has been quite lively recently. ”
"And I heard that there is a master here in your Qulan Town? Once or twice in a row, that master helped you slay demons? ”
The man's name seemed to be ...... Huai Zhi'an? ”
The young man looked at Liu Shi with a smile.
Liu Shi closed his eyes and sighed in his heart, the other party really came because of this, but he immediately restrained his emotions and resurfaced a smile on his face.
"Master Sang, you don't know, that Huai Zhi'an is just a mountain trail, the road is shallow, and he can see it with a face, and I usually don't care about him. But at that time, there were ghosts and ghosts, and under the urgency of the situation, I remembered what His Majesty Emperor Qin said, 'put the people first', so I went to the mountain trail with the idea of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, but I didn't expect that his blind cat ran into a dead mouse, and he took the shit luck to kill the ghost. ”
Liu Shi slapped his thigh, bared his teeth and shook his head.
"I was originally reluctant to apply for merit for that kid, but as soon as I thought of our Majesty Emperor Qin and said, 'Merit will be rewarded', then I must have followed the decree of His Majesty Emperor Qin, so I applied for merit for that kid."
"Did you say yes?"
The young man stared at Liu Shi silently.
The other party moved out of His Majesty Emperor Qin, so it was impossible for him to say half a word of rebuttal, and he couldn't even give birth to thoughts.
"Luck is also part of strength, such a young talent, you can't waste it in the mountains, let him come to see me, maybe I can introduce him to the Candle Dragon Division." The young man said.
Liu Shi smashed his mouth, and said with regret on his face: "Eh, Master Sang, that's really unfortunate, Huai Zhi'an's kid has a strange personality, and he often stays in the mountains for half a year, and the next time he comes out, he may have to ......."
It's just that before Liu Shi finished speaking, the official guarding the gate suddenly ran in and shouted:
"Boss, Huai Zhi'an came to the door to ask to see you."
