Chapter Ninety-Nine: Demon Slayer

Dozens of city guards escorted the carriage to the city guard headquarters.

Xu Hongyu put on a hat, covered her face with a light veil hanging down, and walked in the front, Chen Mu and Xiaohe followed aside, although she was not the official uniform of the chief errand, but the pedestrians along the way recognized Chen Mu as the Wutong Mission, and when they looked at the posture of several people, they could probably guess Xu Hongyu's identity, and they all retreated in awe.

Of course, there are also people who peek quietly, and when they saw that the light gauze was hazy, they suddenly felt a deep regret in their hearts, after all, they heard that the chief messenger in Nancheng District was as beautiful as a fairy, and he finally had the opportunity to meet it, but he couldn't get a glimpse.

On the way.

Xiaohe and Chen Mu approached and whispered something to Chen Mu, Chen Mu listened to them one by one, and occasionally responded with a few words.

At the same time, he swept his eyes to the streets and alleys that he walked by, and sighed lightly in his heart, he had been in charge of Wutongli for less than half a year, and he was about to leave this place, and the errand who came later probably would not act like him and take care of the livelihood of the people of Limin.

As Xiaohe thought, he is naturally not a person who is greedy for power.

Not to mention that he has the strength and confidence now, even if he is just an ordinary errand officer, it is the same, at this time, he will not choose to stay in the outer city, but will only follow Xu Hongyu to the inner city.

He Mingxuan is dead, no matter what, there will be no peace in Nancheng District for a period of time, it will be a land of right and wrong, and he has never been willing to be more involved in right and wrong, and most of them have been forced to act out of desperation along the way.

Xu Hongyu cultivated and promoted all the way, he naturally had to do things for Xu Hongyu, in the position of the errand department, under the rule of the Li people who were affected, he should also seek his own government, including acting in secret, killing some fierce and evil people, and confronting the He family is also an unavoidable thing.

There is nothing to do with the position of vice president.

It is also very suitable to go to the inner city for a period of time, and it is just right to see Chen Yue more, although I have only seen it once not long ago, but since Chen Yue went to the inner city to practice martial arts for more than a year and a half, there are only a handful of opportunities to meet her, although he is quite relieved by the teaching of the Yu Family Martial Academy, but he cultivates it by himself, and it is not easy to grow crooked.

In the past, he didn't have this ability, but now it's no problem.

Soon.

The group arrived at the General Department of City Guard.

In addition to the people of the original Nancheng District City Health Division, there are also a group of people from the He family, as well as a group of people from the West City, plus He Guangzong, the chief secretary.

Xu Hongyu walked into the General Department of Urban Health with a cold face, ignoring the people of the He family and the errand of the West District, and directly summoned the people of Nancheng District, and asked people to take over the batch of prohibited goods escorted by Chen Mu and send them to the back hall of the General Division.

"Lord Xu gave orders as soon as he came back, and he was really busy."

He Guangzong came down step by step from the main building, followed by a group of messengers from Nancheng District, and looked at Xu Hongyu with cold eyes.

Xu Hongyu stood with her hands in her hands, facing He Guangzong and a group of others, she still had that cold demeanor, and said, "I deal with the matter of Nansi, what is Lord He's opinion?" ”

He Guangzong said in a flat tone: "A deputy chief messenger in your Nancheng District was attacked and killed by gangsters for unknown reasons and died at night, do you, the chief officer, want to give an explanation?" ”

Xu Hongyu said coldly: "He Mingxuan is in the company of the gangsters of the Black Cloud Thieves, and if he provokes some villains and is killed, what does it have to do with the General Department of Nancheng District, and Lord He doesn't seem to be qualified to ask about Nancheng District." ”

"Humph!"

When He Guangzong heard this, his face sank, and he snorted coldly: "You can't talk nonsense, as the chief messenger of Nancheng District, you said that my nephew is in the company of the Black Cloud Thieves, is there any evidence?" If there is no evidence to frame him, where is the law of Daxuan? ”

Xu Hongyu glanced at He Guangzong coldly, and said: "I'm too lazy to distinguish with you, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can go to Yan Dusi to complain, the Nancheng General Division is not your jurisdiction, please go back." ”

“……”

He Guangzong glanced at Xu Hongyu with a cold face.

In his heart, he shook his head slightly.

Looking at Xu Hongyu's reaction, it was indeed unrelated to He Mingxuan's death, and most of them didn't know it, although he didn't have much contact with Xu Hongyu, but he knew that Xu Hongyu didn't have much of a deep city, just put on a cold appearance, and his words and reactions couldn't see the slightest flaw, so it should be really irrelevant.

He Guangzong looked away, glanced at Xiaohe coldly, and then saw Chen Mu next to him, looked up and down, and said, "This should be Chen Chasi in Wutong?" It is really impartial and selfless. ”

"Lord He has won the award, but he is just following his own duty."

Chen Mu responded with no saltiness.

"Hmph."

He Guangzong snorted coldly, stopped talking, and turned around and left directly.

Behind him, Fu Linjiang and the other errands, after each glanced at each other, they followed He Guangzong one after another, and now that the situation is clear, they all know that Xu Hongyu will most likely not be appointed as the chief secretary of Nancheng District again, and it will be the He family who will take over at that time, and there is a high probability that He Guangzong himself will be transferred over.

Although Xu Hongyu is still the chief messenger, but now the situation, it is natural to follow the He family.

Xu Hongyu watched Fu Linjiang and the others leave indifferently.

She was not interested in the power struggle in the first place, Fu Linjiang and the others had always been He Mingxuan's people, and now that they had followed He Guangzong, she had no interest in using the last power to scold and punish a few people.

Soon.

After some command and arrangement, the previous affairs were simply handled, and the goods brought in were sorted out and placed.

After tidying up and changing into the white flying fish suit, Xu Hongyu took Chen Mu and Xiaohe to the inner city.

……

It was not the first time that Chen Mu had gone to the inner city, he had been here many times, but every time he came, he basically just went to the Yu Family Martial Arts Academy to see Chen Yue, and he had not wandered around the inner city, nor had he gone to the depths of the inner city.

This.

Led by Xu Hongyu, he entered the inner city all the way and went straight to the center of the inner city.

The various areas of the inner city of Yucheng are relatively distinct, and the most central part of it is the mansion of the city lord, which is also the chief secretary of Yucheng, and the general office of all the government departments is located here.

A large area to the back is the residence of the Xue family, which occupies a very open area.

The Xue family has thousands of people with their own surname alone, counting all kinds of servants, maids, retinues, etc., there are almost nearly 100,000 people, and they are also the largest part of the population in the inner city.

The rest of the Xie family, the He family, and so on, at most, are tens of thousands of people, entrenched in different corners.

Furthermore.

There are also some small families such as the Ji family, the Fan family, etc., these inner city families cannot be compared with the four major families, most of them are dependent on the four families, for example, the Ji family is a distant relative of the Yu family, and they are married for many generations.

Of course, the power of these families is placed in the outer city, and it is still far more than the Zheng family's Nan family, what the Zheng family dreams of is to be able to enter the inner city, become a big family based in the inner city, and become the in-laws of the He family, but this hope has not yet shown any light, and it was destroyed by Chen Mu single-handedly.

Gradually approaching the center of the inner city.

The buildings here began to become more and more solemn, and the bluestone walls were two or three zhang high, which was difficult for some martial artists to jump up, and there were three-story or even four-story pavilions inside.

The size and grandeur of each one are no less than the main building of the Nancheng District Urban Health Department.

On the way.

At regular intervals, there were sergeants standing, and from time to time there were groups of men patrolling.

These are all men and horses of the Inner City City Guard, they are actually not 'errand soldiers', but more like 'elite soldiers', not only have they been trained, each of them is a martial artist who sharpens their skin and cultivates their flesh, and they are also wearing iron armor, and they can easily crush a gang like the Quicksand Gang by sending a group of people to the outer city.

Soon.

Xu Hongyu took Chen Mu and Xiaohe all the way to a building located on the north side of the center.

The building is a row of three-story pavilions, located in the center is a five-story tower, outside the pavilion erected a towering bluestone stele, the stele has the three gilded characters of 'Demon Slayer'.

"I'll go in first, and you'll wait here for a while."

Xu Hongyu gave an order to Chen Mu and Xiaohe, and then walked in.

Demon Slayer!

Chen Mu looked up at the stone tablet.

The gilded characters on the stele seem to have some kind of demonic power, and there is a vague thrilling feeling when looking at the eyes, as if it is burning violently.

In the heyday of the Daxuan Dynasty in the past, the Demon Slaying Division was one of the most prosperous government divisions of the Great Xuan Dynasty, with masters under his command like clouds, and there were elite heavy armor troops like 'Vermilion Bird Guard'.

Everywhere he went, all the demons were given heads, and the demons killed by the Demon Slaying Division were unknown to the eighth and ninth orders, and their power was almost above all the other Ya Si, and wherever the Demon Slaying Division went, all the Ya Si had to do their best to assist.

Now, although the Great Xuan Dynasty is in decline, the Demon Slaying Division is still the first government secretary in Yucheng, headed by the Xue family, and the strong men in the three families such as Xie, He, and Yu all serve in the Demon Slaying Division, including some other small families in the inner city, as well as some very few strong people who have risen by personal strength.

Just look at the configuration of the Demon Slayer Division.

Among them, there is a division master, three capital divisions, and twelve deputy capital divisions, each of whom is above the Bone Forging Realm, even if it is Xue Lin, who becomes the deputy capital division by virtue of the power of the Xue family, he has steadily entered the Bone Forging Realm.

The Demon Slaying Division is high, basically not responsible for any public security and other things in the inner and outer cities, the only thing responsible is the stability of the entire Yu County, where there are demons to make trouble, they will go to kill demons and hunt demons.

Like Xu Hongyu.

Although she is the chief messenger of the outer city, she goes out of the city to hunt demons, and she also hangs the name of the Demon Slaying Division, and after she comes back, she has to go to the Demon Slaying Division to report on her work, and then go to the City Health Division.

The Demon Slayer Division also has almost all the resources that can be touched by Yucheng, such as the Yi Muscle Pill, the Bone Forging Pill, and even the Eight Phases Artistic Conception Diagram of the Heaven and Earth, which can almost be accessed in the Demon Slaying Division!

Here we are talking only about merit and nothing else.

Merit can be exchanged for everything.

However, it is also difficult to enter the Demon Slaying Division, and the minimum requirements are to train the meat well and master the momentum, that is to say, the characters who can serve as the errand division outside, and the Demon Slaying Division is only the lowest level of soldiers.

If the children of the Han family want to rise, then they can only cultivate the body quenching method all the way to the perfection of flesh training, practice the potential, and then enter the demon slaying division, make meritorious deeds, in exchange for the Yi Jin Pill, or the opportunity to comprehend the artistic conception map, and climb up step by step.

But it's basically hard.

In the past, during the heyday of the Great Xuan Dynasty, this road was quite passable, but now basically the number of places in the Demon Slaying Division is in the hands of various families in the inner city, and the casualty rate of the low-level soldiers of the Demon Slaying Division is very large, and it is not in the realm of Yijin, and the battle with the monster can be described as dangerous and abnormal, and the children of the poor family without a background, even if they go in, many will be placed as cannon fodder.
