Chapter 1: The Prison
Kyoto, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yamen Prison.
Li Huaiyun opened his sleepy eyes, and the sultry environment around him made his body full of sweat, and at the same time, there was a rancid smell here.
He had a splitting headache and patted his head lightly with his hand, "How much alcohol have I drunk, and I have slept in the garbage heap." ”
However, when Li Huaiyun saw the situation around him clearly, he found that he was being held in a darkened prison, and his hands were cuffed by thick and heavy iron chains.
"I'm F... Where is this? He jerked to his feet, chains clattering with metal.
Immediately afterward, memories of the past flooded into his brain.
Li Huaiyun, a D-level demon catcher of the Demon Slaying Division, was ordered to catch a certain monster that appeared in Kyoto a few days ago, but unfortunately, on the way to catch him, he accidentally killed a passerby.
Before that, the Demon Slayer Division had already sent someone to remind him that it was a passerby and didn't need to be ignored.
However, he insisted on his own opinion and disobeyed the order, and later confirmed the identity of the passer-by after an on-site inspection by the government and Dali Temple.
Li Huaiyun killed passers-by by mistake, and according to the law of the Great Zhou, he would be exiled to the borderland, but, plus disobeying the order, he would be punished for several crimes, and he should be beheaded according to the law.
Oops! My crossing is decapitation! It's a hellish start!
Li Huaiyun pulled the messy and damp hair on his head, he lowered his head and pondered, and re-sorted the process of the matter, he always felt that something was wrong with this matter.
During the mission, he saw the passer-by with his own eyes, and stayed at the code mark for a long time, and the person's face and physical state were also very suspicious.
Why is it that after the identification and autopsy, it is actually an innocent passerby? There must be something hidden in it.
Li Huaiyun stood in front of the cell, his fingers firmly grasped the wood, and shouted loudly outside, hoping that someone would come and pass the message to the person handling the case for him, and then examine the body.
But after yelling for a long time, shouting until his voice was hoarse, there was still no movement in this prison, and it was unusually quiet.
He turned around with a disappointed face, leaned his back against the cell door, and slowly sat down.
After a few moments, there was a sound of soft footsteps at the cell door.
Li Huaiyun jumped up directly from the ground when he heard the voice, staring at the door of the cell, is there really hope?
A graceful woman in a long blue silk dress and a glass hairpin on her head was walking towards him.
This woman has a delicate face, a straight chest, a bee waist and wide hips, and she walks with her buttocks twisted and twisted, which is extraordinarily amorous!
"Red Rhyme!" Li Huaiyun looked at the woman standing in front of the prison door.
The woman he called Hongyun raised her eyebrows, stretched out her arm, and smashed her fist on Li Huaiyun's head, "Call Auntie!" No big or small bunny! ”
"Oops!" Li Huaiyun screamed, touched his head, and glared angrily at the charming and plump woman outside the cell, "There are no outsiders here!" ”
"It doesn't matter if you have it or not, you have to call me aunt!"
This woman, who is only more than ten years older than Li Huaiyun, is the concubine of his father Li Changqing, who has been included in the Li Mansion before he was born.
The Li family is in the medicinal herb business in Kyoto, in the early years, the parents got up early and greedy, and worked hard to take care of this business, with accurate vision and diligence, the business has been doing very well, therefore, the family is also relatively solid.
However, ten years ago, his parents were on their way to Los Angeles to buy medicinal herbs, and on the way back, they encountered a monster, and all of them died in the hands of the monster.
At this point, the family fell into the middle of the road, and the family's business also plummeted, and was taken over by other businessmen, that year, Li Huaiyun had just turned ten years old, and naturally the woman Hongyun was in charge.
In addition to being his aunt, this woman's other identity information has always been very mysterious, and he also inquired with the old slave and maid in the family, but the only ones who knew the identity were the servants and maidservants who had been dismissed before, and the new ones were the same as him, and they were not clear.
What puzzled Li Huaiyun the most was that his aunt didn't know what her surname was, and most people called her Mrs. Li, even if they were closer neighbors, they all called her Hongyun.
"What did I say! I have long advised you, don't enter the Demon Slaying Division, now it's okay, make it like this, how can you let me explain to your father! ”
"How do you explain? I don't need to explain, when I go down, I'll explain it to my father and mother myself. ”
"You!" Hong Yun didn't feel angry, and then pointed at his head again, "Look what you said!" ”
"Why did you beat me again!"
"I'm your aunt, what's wrong with beating you!"
Li Huaiyun has always been not very compatible with this woman in charge, just because this woman has always treated him as a child, in his opinion, Hongyun's age is suitable for his sister, his parents died early, he is the eldest son, and now that he is an adult, the family should let him be the master, and Hongyun should listen to him.
"You should have listened to me in the first place, and studied medicine with me!"
As soon as he talked about this, Li Huaiyun became angry, this woman had been hiding the truth about the death of her parents, until one day, he overheard that the death of his parents was related to the monster, so he decided to enter the Demon Slaying Division, hoping that one day he could find the monster and avenge his parents.
However, Hongyun strongly opposed him to enter the Demon Slaying Division, and there was no reason.
In Kyoto, if you want to enter the Demon Slaying Division, in addition to the prescribed cultivation realm, you also need other qualifications, and polishing these qualifications requires cultivation, which is a lot of money for ordinary people.
After the Li family's medicinal herb business was taken over, Hongyun was the only one in the whole family, relying on opening a medical hall to treat diseases and catch medicines to maintain the family's expenses.
Therefore, she was quite opposed to Li Huaiyun's entry into the Demon Slaying Division.
The two quarreled for a long time because of this, and in the end, Li Huaiyun stubbornly wanted to take away the heirloom jewelry left by his mother and exchange it for the cost of cultivation.
Hongyun almost fainted with anger, looking at those heirloom jewelry, she was so heartbroken that she could only agree to Li Huaiyun's request, and the cost of polishing the qualifications would also be paid by her, on the condition that she would keep the jewelry.
After that, the two reached a tacit agreement not to quarrel over this matter, and now they are arguing again about it.
"Auntie, why did you mention this again, saying that I don't want to study medicine, and I will hand over my money every month, isn't it enough?"
"If you don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, your little money is barely enough for a month."
Before Li Huaiyun was imprisoned, he was a demon hunter at the level of Demon Slayer, and he belonged to the lowest level, so it was normal for him to be young.
"You little rabbit cub is now in prison again, and it costs a lot of money just to do it here, are you forcing me to go to the Sect Division?"
Li Huaiyun glanced at this woman, with his aunt's appearance and figure, it was really possible to become an Oiran there, and her beautiful and refined temperament and plump figure were quite attractive to any man.
Coupled with the medical skills of rejuvenation, which Oiran of the Sect Division can have such an ability.
However, he didn't want to, his aunt had to rely on this way to earn money, it wasn't a shame for him as a leader.
"Aren't you ashamed to go there at your age?"
When Hongyun heard this, she hit him on the head with another punch, "Who do you say is old, little rabbit, I don't think you want to live anymore!" ”
Li Huaiyun lowered his head, looking lonely, "Now in this situation, I don't have much chance to live!" ”
Having said that, the originally noisy cell suddenly became quiet again, and the two looked at each other, unable to hide the grief in their hearts.
"I've discussed with your hall master, if you want to save your life, you can only go inside."
The inside line of the Demon Slaying Division means that Li Huaiyun will change his appearance, wander the rivers and lakes, and go to various territories to do internal responses, and there will be no normal identity and life from now on.
"I'm not going!"
"And you want to die?"
"I don't want to! Because I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with this, especially the passerby. ”
"The autopsy and the results of the investigation are out, what else do you have to quibble."
Li Huaiyun disagreed, "The passers-by who were killed must be monsters!" I trust my own judgment! ”
"You..."Hongyun was angered by this stubborn person, and her chest kept rising and falling, "Why are you so stubborn!" Don't give up yet! ”
"If you don't let me do an autopsy, I don't believe it."
"I want to eat it! You are now a guilty body, how can you be allowed to have an autopsy. ”
"So," Li Huaiyun spoke in a lower voice, knowing that he was not reasonable, hoping that Hongyun could think of a way to help him.
"Auntie, can you find a way to help me!"
Hongyun Tie blushed and scolded loudly, "Little rabbit cub, it took a lot of money to enter the Demon Division, and now it's doing this again, and it's another amount of money to get through the relationship, your aunt opened a medical hall, not a money bank!" ”
"You might as well go inside!"
Li Huaiyun turned his head with a look of displeasure, "Doesn't that prove that I killed the wrong person!" I trust my own judgment, as long as I am allowed to perform an autopsy, I will definitely be able to clear my innocence! ”
Hongyun felt a headache at Li Huaiyun's stubbornness, she rubbed her forehead, calmed down her excitement, this time she came to see him, and put some money on it, which made the originally not thick family even thinner.
And if the government wants him to do an autopsy himself, I am afraid that more silver will be needed, and it is even impossible.
Take the money! It's impossible to take money, and it's impossible to spend money in this life.
Hongyun's deep eyes turned, and she remembered that when she was dotting, the county order looked at her eyes, something was wrong, and her eyes were obviously full of desire! You might be able to take advantage of it.
This little bunny is so annoying, and I have to sacrifice my hue to help him!
For so many years, the two are different generations, but there is no difference between size and size, and they can quarrel over some trivial things all the time! They look like a couple of enemies, but their relationship has always been good.
With this opportunity, Hongyun still wanted to try, she stiffened her face and turned around to leave.
Li Huaiyun saw that his aunt was about to leave without saying a word, and immediately shouted, "Auntie! "The only hope he has now is left.
"Shut up! Let me figure it out! Hongyun glared at him fiercely and hurried out of the cell.
Li Huaiyun thought of the recent situation at home and knew Hongyun's difficulties, so he sighed helplessly, and he didn't have any hope in his heart, he was actually already thinking about whether he really wanted to be an insider, go deep into the rivers and lakes for the rest of his life, and never see his aunt again.
The county government office.
Hongyun sat on the wooden chair next to him, his face was pretty, his eyes were bright, and he exuded a dignified and elegant temperament.
She nodded towards Gao Xianling with a smile on her face.
Gao Xianling half-squinted, a special smile appeared on his face, he rubbed the mustache on the side of his mouth, picked up the teacup, took a sip lightly, and looked at Hongyun's erect mountain peak with his flirtatious gaze.
"Mrs. Li, Ling Lang's matter, isn't it already helped, why are you still ...
