Every time Chen Xuance came here to fish, he would meet this girl named Xiao Cui at this time.
It is said that she is the head actress of Xingchunlou. Ma Baihu has fought with Liu Baihu from Huangsi Group, and they have exchanged insults and even competed for the thickness of their purses in Xingchunlou.
He looked up with a silly grin on his honest face, drool hanging from his mouth, and looked at the girl with a silly expression.
The information suddenly appeared in my mind:
Fox demon, with 150 years of Taoist practice, has been able to transform into a human form for three years. He is comparable to a master of internal strength in the human world, with no grievances. He can be used as a town guard, but he can also be left alone.
Chen Xuance quickly lowered his head, afraid that the girl would see his surprised expression on his face.
Concentrate all your energy, a stone the size of a black fist is floating deep in the Sea of Knowledge.
Chen Daoxuan barely recognized the four ancient dark gold characters: "The Book of Towns to Fight Demons".
Then, ecstasy, is this the late plug-in?
"What's the use? Who will go to the town with me, a weak chicken?"
The words just disappeared from my mind, and four big words flashed by.
Chen Xuance saw very clearly that it was: "Eliminate the demon, and you will be rewarded."
He suppressed his joy and picked up the golden-roasted crucian carp in front of him, eating it mouthful by mouthful.
The food is very meticulous, and every tiny piece of meat on the burr is picked out and eaten.
Before entering the demon department, he was very hungry for several days.
If it wasn't for the old man seeing his tall stature and sending him to the demon-killing guard for testing, he would have starved to death.
People who have been hungry will not waste food.
He didn't care about the fox demon on the attic, because he couldn't afford to provoke it.
In 30 years, Ma Baihu is not even as strong as this fox demon.
Although Ma Baihu easily killed the fox demon.
This is due to the equipment bonus.
Who knows if the fox demon has any lifesaving tools? The reward is good, but life is more important.
Besides, this fox demon probably has a strong following. Can someone without a following get by in Kyoto? And even more so, by the side of the demon-controlling department. To say there's no hidden agenda is pure bullshit.
Maybe Ma Baihu and Liu Baihu like this. When they are drunk, riding a horse and holding a gun, a big hairy tail in front of them may feel better?
Seeing Chen Xuance's old honest and simple smile, Little Cui, the fox demon, also lost her interest in teasing him and went back to the attic.
After eating, he put away the fishing rod and took out a reed mat from a corner, which had been hidden by Chen Xuance before.
Lying down in the shade, Chen Xuance began to take a nap. The afternoon was cool and breezy, making him feel comfortable.
At noon, if the fish don't take the bait, we can't waste it.
When the sun set, Chen Xuance, carrying four chopstick-long fish, one crucian carp and three catfish, and carrying a fishing rod, sauntered back to the Demon Elimination Division.
If I say this is the best time to fish, I can't bear the mosquitoes and have to come back.
He has the medicine for deworming, so there is no need to waste it on this matter.
I found Ma Baihu and gave him a carp.
Chen Xuance originally wanted to give all four fish to Ma Baihu, his immediate superior, as this relationship would be more troublesome than not maintaining the relationship with the Great Commander.
The Great Commander may not know who he is, but Ma Baihu can easily make him fall into a trap.
Ma Baihu didn't want any of them, and Chen Xuance could see that he didn't want any of them. He didn't like the fish coming from the Rouge River.
Ma Baihu had told him more than once to go fishing in the upper reaches of the Rouge River.
Who doesn't want to go upstream? Is that where Chen Xuance can go?
Before the demon-killing clothes were available, if he dared to go fishing upstream where the high-ranking officials and noblemen were enjoying the scenery, someone would dare to knock him to death and throw him into the water.
Ordinary people may not know where the demon-controlling department is located or what the demon-controlling clothes represent.
Nobles and officials dare not provoke those who wear demon-killing clothes. Nobody knows when they will encounter something, and these are all "deities" who can save their lives at crucial moments.
Over the years, there have been no dull people who are unscrupulous, and every few years, one appears to remind insiders of what the demon department is.
Let's not talk about the distant past, just say that a nouveau riche tried it not long after moving to Beijing half a year ago.
One day, while enjoying the cool breeze at his doorstep, he claimed that a nine-level demon-fighting guard who passed by had stained his expensive cloth shoes and demanded a hundred taels of silver as compensation.
The town demon-control guard who just passed the investigation period also had bad luck. He didn't wear the demon-control clothes when he went out. Besides, how could he afford 100 liang?
Then I was beaten by the butler of this nouveau riche. Boy, I was black and blue.
After playing, he even asked where the house was.
Like Chen Xuance, the defeated demon-controlling guard was also a refugee without a family, and could only say that he was a member of the demon-controlling department.
The nouveau riche heard that this place was not familiar and probably not a very powerful place. His brother-in-law was a minister of the fifth rank, so he was not afraid at all.
Alright, let's go and ask for an explanation from your government office.
They were not destined to die.
There is a nouveau riche neighbor, and this neighbor is not a high-ranking family, but also an old man in the capital city. Commonly known as the landlord, he knows the connections of the demon-controlling department.
The neighbor was enjoying the excitement at his doorstep, but when he heard that the half-grown boy was from the Demon Elimination Division, he stopped watching the drama and quickly advised him not to pursue the matter, letting it go at that.
When this person is in a bad mood, they won't listen to reason. After all, where there's a will, there's a way. Who doesn't have two relatives who are officials? What are they afraid of? The nouveau riche immediately took his bodyguards and forced the unfortunate demon-fighting guard to lead them to the demon-fighting department.
When we arrived, the demon-controlling department asked us and we found out the whole story. Boy, it's been years since someone came to us.
The Department of Demons Suppression is most respectful of rules. If you say your shoes are worth a thousand taels, fine, just compensate.
He was also unequivocal, paying the nouveau riche 100 taels of silver on the spot and giving an additional 50 taels as compensation for the long journey in the winter.
The nouveau riche saw that the person was so polite and was also a government office, so he declined the extra fifty liang of silver for a few times. Seeing that the person was insistent, he had to accept it.
When he took the money and left, the concierge of the Town's Evil Exorcism Division smiled at him, smiling brightly.
When he came near the door, the nouveau riche encountered the neighbor who had stopped him before, proudly showing off, "You've never seen the world, look, I just brought back 150 liang."
The neighbor's face immediately changed and asked him, "Didn't you want the other person to pay 100 taels? Why did it become 150 taels?"
The nouveau riche said with pride, "The demon-killing department is reasonable. They gave me an extra fifty liang because it's not easy for me to walk such a long distance in the cold winter.
The neighbor ignored him and turned back to the yard to close the gate.
Some people are looking for death, and it's impossible to stop them.
The nouveau riche was still thinking, "Hey, Kyoto people are just cowardly."
The neighbor entered the courtyard gate, and called his wife and children to pack up their things and move to the inn.
His wife refused. Why go to a hotel when there's nothing wrong? Did he get money by the wind? Besides, it's freezing in the winter. Where's the warmth at home?
There was nothing to do but the nouveau riche neighbor told his wife about what happened today. So, the family moved to the inn that day. Good thing they booked a room for a month.
Before leaving, he also informed the neighbors of the nouveau riche. The nearby inn was filled to capacity in no time.
Three days later, the entire family of the nouveau riche, consisting of more than 20 people, died suddenly. The money for the coffin was exactly 50 taels, without a single penny missing.
The Shuntian Prefecture came in the same day, and after learning about what happened three days ago, they simply diagnosed it as food poisoning and closed the case on the spot.
His brother-in-law, who was a minister, wanted to make trouble again, but the governor of Shuntian Prefecture directly told him: "The demon-controlling department, your brother-in-law provoked the people first.
Ok, stop it. If you make trouble with your own people, they may not pay for the coffin.
He was right. For this rare pastime, several hundred households of the Yellow Division of the Demon Suppression Division almost fought. Those who didn't get a chance to fight were all staring at him waiting for him to make a scene.
Chen Xuance also knows about this. The old man will tell this story to every new wave of people. It is said that this is the meaning of the mysterious General, saying that it will help increase the chance of the demon guard passing the examination during the examination period.
After listening to this story, he was shocked by the enterprise culture.
