Chapter 25

Just at this moment, the Fang siblings walked out of the room.

Seeing Lu Zhangsheng soaking in the water vat, they were stunned.

"This is...?"

Fang Tao was somewhat confused.

Lu Zhangsheng explained a few words to the two casually, then jumped out of the water vat, revealing his lean upper body.

The muscular body brought by martial arts practice, coupled with his resolute face, appeared extremely masculine.

Seeing this, Fang Qing's face turned red, somewhat embarrassed.

She was still a young maiden; where had she seen such a situation?

Lu Zhangsheng looked at Fang Tao, seemingly thinking of something.

He took out a martial arts secret manual from the stone table and handed it over.

It was exactly that Iron Leg Skill from Zhao Erhu.

"You can practice this martial arts secret manual."

Being alone was ultimately a bit weak, but if he wanted to create a force, it was better to start cultivating from his confidants.

With the family friendship between the two families, coupled with the friendship between the two, this secret manual was nothing.

"This is...?"

Fang Tao was so excited that his face turned red, and he clenched his fists tightly.

He quickly took the secret manual and found that it was exactly the martial arts technique he had dreamed of, and he couldn't help but be moved: "Thank you, Brother Lu. When I have achieved success in martial arts, I will definitely roam the world with Brother Lu..."

Before he finished speaking, his ear was directly pinched by Fang Qing.

"With your three-legged cat technique, you still want to roam..."

"Pain, pain... Sister, I won't dare again."

Fang Tao begged for mercy repeatedly.

Seeing this, Lu Zhangsheng smiled faintly.

Seeing that Fang Qing always had a trace of worry in her eyes, he couldn't help but be full of doubts: "Did something happen?"

Fang Qing sighed lightly: "These days, when we go out, we often find people following us..."

"But fortunately, we followed your requirements and didn't go out of the scope of the Demon-Suppressing Division family compound, and the other party seems very wary."

Hearing this, Fang Tao also gritted his teeth and chimed in: "That's right, those people are too hateful."

"I know. You try to stay active nearby. I will go to the Demon-Suppressing Division to get the daily purchases."

Cold light flashed in Lu Zhangsheng's eyes.

He knew those people must be spies from the Sanhe Gang.

They had been looking for opportunities to deal with him.

However, he was very cautious, making it difficult for the other party to find an opportunity, so they set their sights on Fang Qing and her brother.

With his current strength, he was enough to deal with the likes of the Sanhe Gang protectors, unless the Hall Master level made a move personally, but that was clearly unlikely.

Even if he couldn't beat them, relying on his perfect-level body technique, he could find an opportunity to escape.

Then, the few exchanged for a while, and Lu Zhangsheng left the courtyard.

The Demon-Suppressing Division had to report every three days, which was equivalent to daily check-in.

Other times were free activities.

Lu Zhangsheng walked on the wide and tidy street, wearing a Flying Eagle Uniform, with a Xiuchun Blade hanging at his waist, looking heroic and extraordinary.

A group of commoners on the road saw this and scattered one after another, looking at Lu Zhangsheng with awe.

The status of people in the Demon-Suppressing Division was still very prominent.

As long as one could join the Demon-Suppressing Division, one could automatically obtain a Ninth Rank official status, which was a world of difference from the common people.

On both sides of the street, some young girls who were in love saw Lu Zhangsheng's heroic posture and boldly threw flirtatious glances.

Lu Zhangsheng walked along the street.

Soon he arrived inside the Demon-Suppressing Division Yamen.

When he stepped into the main hall, some martial artists were already waiting here.

Seeing Lu Zhangsheng come in, no one greeted him, being very cold.

Lu Zhangsheng was happy to be idle and stood in the back waiting quietly.

He had always liked quietness. After joining the Demon-Suppressing Division, he had never interacted with anyone, only focusing on burying his head in hard practice, so naturally, he had no familiar people.

The entire Demon-Suppressing Division Douzhàn Hall had not had a new Hall Master come to take over since the previous Hall Master was promoted.

Daily affairs were all presided over by three Deputy Hall Masters.

Lu Zhangsheng and these people belonged to Qin Ruobing's management.

Under her, there were more than ten Yellow Rank Demon-Suppressing Envoys and three Mysterious Rank Demon-Suppressing Envoys.

However, the other two Deputy Hall Masters were slightly better.

The strength of the Changping County Demon-Suppressing Division on the surface was roughly like this.

As for those hidden in the dark, it was not something he could understand.

Half an hour later.

Gao Yunming brought two Demon-Suppressing Envoys and walked in from outside the hall.

He didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point: "These days, many strange things have happened in Changping County. After investigation by the Demon-Suppressing Division, it is not man-made... Some Ghost Rank Guaiyi are just suitable for you. This cleaning operation was jointly formulated by the three Deputy Hall Masters. I hope you all work together..."

"Everyone who completes the mission will receive a Small Merit."

After speaking, he immediately took out a mission list and hung it on the side wall.

Everyone surrounded it one after another.

Lu Zhangsheng looked closely and saw that it was full of dense missions.

"Investigate the case of Zhang Family Village villagers being dismembered..."

"Behead a Ghost Rank Guaiyi in Caoping Village..."

"Explore the strange death of a large number of villagers in Yunxi Village..."

……

……

The subtitles poured into Lu Zhangsheng's heart like cold spring water.

He didn't expect the situation outside to be so severe; only Changping County was still stable.

This was probably also due to the suppression by a large number of strong people.

"Everyone, choose your missions immediately."

Gao Yunming urged again.

Soon, everyone stepped forward to choose one after another.

Not long after, it was Lu Zhangsheng's turn.

He pointed directly at the strange death of the Yunxi Village villagers.

"I'll choose this one."

Seeing that everyone had finished choosing, Gao Yunming distributed the mission tokens.

"The mission will start in three days. The information of other teammates is all on the mission token."

According to custom, before the mission starts, it is top secret, and only those who have accepted the mission will know the specific situation.

This can also avoid mission leakage and cause tragedies.

After Lu Zhangsheng received the token, he left the hall.

He quickly returned to his own courtyard and began to wait quietly.

………………

At dusk.

Demon-Suppressing Division, inside a gorgeous hall.

Three figures were sitting on chairs, full of seriousness.

One of them was exactly one of the Deputy Hall Masters, Qin Ruobing.

The other two were the remaining two Deputy Hall Masters of the Douzhàn Hall.

One of them was tall and thin, with extremely sharp eyes.

This person was named Xiao Tianci.

The other person had a round figure, a full face, and was always smiling, looking harmless.

The other party was exactly the last Deputy Hall Master, He Chunlin.

"In the past year, those Guaiyi Demon Servants have become more and more active. I don't know how many members will be lost in this action."

Xiao Tianci sighed softly.

"Hmph... Those Wenxiang Sect members are becoming more and more rampant. Recently, they even came to the city to preach..."

"The anomalies of these Guaiyi outside the city probably have an inseparable relationship with the other party."

Qin Ruobing snorted coldly.

He Chunlin frowned: "We don't have much energy left; it's already quite difficult to guard the county city."

"Moreover, those Wenxiang Sect people have been operating for many years; presumably, they have taken root in the county, and it is difficult to eradicate them completely."

"Let County Magistrate Du take action to clean up the heretic cult."

Of course, he also knew about the anomalies of the Wenxiang Sect, but he was very cautious about whether to go all out.

Their primary mission of the Demon-Suppressing Division was to clean up demons and ghosts; if they dispersed their energy, it would probably be even more difficult.

At this time, Xiao Tianci smiled faintly: "Our County Magistrate Du is busy suppressing bandits. If the Black Mountain Bandits are not completely eradicated, presumably he will not give up."

Hearing this, Qin Ruobing was indifferent and speechless.

Although she had only been here for three years, she also knew the "glorious" deeds of this County Magistrate Du.

It is rumored that twenty years ago, when County Magistrate Du Wentao was still an ordinary scholar, his whole family was slaughtered by the Black Mountain Bandits because of some things, and only he escaped by going out to study.

For the next ten years, Du Wentao studied hard, finally passed the imperial examination, but chose to come to Changping County to be a county magistrate.

Everyone knew that the other party was probably aiming at the Black Mountain Bandits; the hatred of exterminating the clan was irreconcilable.

Since County Magistrate Du took office three years ago, after initially integrating the forces of the whole county, he began to take action one after another to deal with the Black Mountain Bandits.

The entire Changping County had a feeling of a storm coming.

Black Mountain Bandits, Wenxiang Sect, demons and Guaiyi... these forces were like a dense cloud, covering Qin Ruobing's heart.
