Chapter 36: Eliminating harm for the people is not hard
The next morning, Lu Zhan got up early.
The sky was just beginning to turn pale, but the streets of Jiangning were already filled with breakfast stalls. Lu Zhan ate four meat buns and a bowl of salty tofu pudding on the street, then walked leisurely towards the Demon Suppression Bureau.
He was thinking in his heart about how to nourish his soul. It is not easy to get close to a rich woman, and relying solely on the cases of the Demon Suppression Bureau is a bit insufficient. If he wants to feed his soul, he has to think of other ways.
I wonder if there are any monsters to kill in Jiangning... Lu Zhan thought, there should be some... but they are probably in the suburbs, no one has reported it, and the Demon Suppression Bureau is too lazy to take care of it.
"Guanqi is back?" As soon as he entered the Demon Suppression Division, Xie Chunyan greeted him, "Did you suffer at the headquarters?"
Suffering? Lu Zhan rolled his eyes: "Brother Chun, are you suffering at the headquarters?"
Thinking of what happened that day, Xie Chunyan still felt a little embarrassed, and changed his words: "That's not the case. Anyway, you should work hard. This secret realm is extraordinary. It is said that high-quality magic tools have appeared. I think even Luyun Academy and several immortal disciples have come to Jinling. If you hurry up and go to the Tumor Realm, you can also join in the fun."
"I will try my best!" Lu Zhan said confidently, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
In addition to the Royal Demon Suppression Bureau, there are naturally other immortal sects in the Great Zhou. Every three years, there will be competitions between the immortal sects, and occasionally the Demon Suppression Bureau will join in the fun, and they get along quite harmoniously.
As for Luyun Academy, it is the largest Confucian academy in the Great Zhou Dynasty and the ultimate goal of students all over the world. Although its dean is not an official in the court, many of his disciples have become officials, and their strength is complex.
Now that they have all come to Jinling, it is enough to show the importance of this secret realm.
However, what Lu Zhan is most concerned about now is that Xie Chunyan cannot see through his own realm.
When he met Wei Zhao earlier, Wei Zhao, who was in the Demortal Realm, could not see through his realm, but the masters in the Mysterious Realm could see it.
Now that he has suppressed his realm to the late stage of Marrow Cleansing Realm, Xie Chunyan doesn't seem to notice anything unusual.
It seems that his guess was correct. After reaching the Mortal Realm, the only one who can see through his true strength... is perhaps the Creation Realm. The Mysterious Realm can only see what he wants others to see.
In this way, Lu Zhan was in a better mood...hiding his strength would be more conducive to Yuan Shen's surprise attack.
...
After the hour of dawn, Lu Zhan was called to the study by Yang Kui.
"Is everything going well at the headquarters?" Yang Kui raised his eyelids, hinting at something.
Lu Zhan readily said, "Thank you for your concern, everything is going well... After the court is dismissed today, I will ask the boss to avenge our previous humiliation at Lanxiefang."
"Well, I don't want to go, but seeing that you are so filial, I will go with reluctance." Yang Kui said seriously: "Don't wait until the court is dismissed, let's go now."
He is so impatient at his age... Lu Zhan's eyelids twitched, and he followed Yang Kui out.
Before he had taken two steps, he ran into Xie Chunyan.
"Boss, I'm looking for you for something." Xie Chunyan clasped his fists and bowed, then hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhou is here. He said something happened at home and he wants to see you."
Yang Kui waved his hand: "Just handle this matter yourself, Guanqi and I have important things to do."
Xie Chunyan reminded him, "Mr. Zhou is the one you wanted to cheat out of money to renovate the Demon Suppression Bureau."
"Scam, what scam?!" Yang Kui's eyes widened, and he seemed to remember who Mr. Zhou was. He said unhappily, "Go, go, go...you two come with me to take a look."
Yang Kui was in a bad mood as his good time was interrupted, and he even walked with an attitude that showed he was not to be messed with.
Lu Zhan followed behind and made eye contact with Xie Chunyan: "Who is Mr. Zhou?"
Xie Chunyan responded with his eyes: "What a fool. Boss Yang has always wanted people to donate money to renovate the Demon Suppression Bureau."
The Demon Suppression Bureau has limited annual funding, and if it exceeds the limit, a petition must be submitted. Not to mention that the review takes a long time and may not be approved.
Therefore, the Demon Suppression Bureau usually has dealings with the local gentry.
No wonder Yang Kui went to meet him in person even though he was unhappy... It seems that the visitor is a walking millionaire.
When he walked to the front of the hall, Yang Kui smiled as if in spring breeze: "Brother Zhou, why are you here at this time?"
"Brother Yang Kui..." Mr. Zhou stood up hurriedly, his fat body trembling: "Brother Yang, you are finally here. Something happened at home. I want you to send two reliable people to take a look..."
Yang Kui asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
"A servant died in my house last night. I suspect the house is haunted." Mr. Zhou whispered.
Yang Kui rubbed his forehead and said, "The people from the Demon Suppression Division haven't checked it out yet. How do you know it's a ghost?"
"Because the way the servant died was exactly the same as the way my little Sixteenth died!" Mr. Zhou said, wiping his eyes with his sleeves, wiping away the non-existent tears: "Seven days ago, my little Sixteenth hanged herself... Alas, I provided her with fine clothes and delicious food every day, but I don't know why she suddenly became depressed. Last night was her seventh day..."
Yang Kui thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll send two demon-suppressing masters to take a look."
"Let's pick these two!" Mr. Zhou was very shrewd. He pointed at Lu Zhan and Xie Chunyan and said, "Since they are by your side, they must be more reliable than others."
Yang Kui's mouth twitched: "Let Xie Chunyan go. Guanqi is only at the level of cleansing marrow. If he really encounters a powerful character, he can't help."
Lu Zhan: “…”
The boss really took great pains to go to Lanxiefang... But he really wanted to visit Zhou's family. He needed to nourish his spirit, and demons were much more attractive to him than women.
But he couldn't say such things... otherwise the boss would definitely get angry. After all, last time in Lanxiefang, the boss was about to spur his horse, but was interrupted by the incident of the wedding dress skeleton. This time he was determined to avenge his previous humiliation, and whoever interrupted him again would definitely end up in a bad way.
Lu Zhan couldn't help but look at Xie Chunyan, hinting the straight man to stop talking nonsense.
Unexpectedly, before he could hint, he heard Xie Chunyan say, "How could that be? Guanqi is the only night doctor in Jiangning. He can also perform an autopsy and see the symptoms and memory of the deceased. Boss, don't you want Guanqi to go?"
If you don't speak, no one will think you're dumb... Yang Kui glared at Xie Chunyan unhappily, then turned around and said with a smile: "Okay, since Brother Zhou wants Guanqi to go with him, then let Guanqi go!"
Speaking of it.
Yang Kui walked up to the two of them and looked at Xie Chunyan: "Chunyan's realm is improving slowly. It seems that you have been slacking off recently. When you come back, clean all the toilets and toilets in the Demon Suppression Bureau. This will be considered as a training for you."
Xie Chunyan: “???”
Yang Kui looked at Lu Zhan again, his smile full of care: "Thank you for your hard work."
Lu Zhan said righteously and sternly: "Serving the people is not hard!"
Xie Chunyan: “…”
Lu Zhan was in a good mood after looking at Xie Chunyan with heartache.
According to the spirit of the Yuanshen, he will have his second meal tonight. The evil spirit produced by the fox demon in the Demon-Subduing Bag can deal with one meal, but the next meal has not been found yet.
Compared to going to Lanxiefang to meet the female fairy, Lu Zhan wanted to find the monster to have a chat, so as to accumulate strength for the secret realm in the future.
Furthermore, based on the shadow he left on Madam Huarui when he dealt with the infant evil, if he went to her yard for a deep chat, Madam Huarui would definitely refuse to fight.
There is no point in looking for a woman. I, Lu, have a heart that loves my country and my people and suppresses demons and monsters.
