Mythological origin

Chapter 52
"My lord, we need more manpower, the brothers are really overwhelmed."

In the city lord's mansion, a few young arresters with tired faces, as if their bodies had been hollowed out, forcibly cheered up and half-kneeled to report to the city lord Ding Changhan.

In recent months, the number of homicides in Linzhou City has skyrocketed, and the Yizhuang and the coffin shop are crowded with people every day.

Especially in the Yizhuang where the corpses are placed, it is rare that there are more living people than dead people. Almost every two or three hours, a group of people come in and out, throwing some unclaimed mutilated corpses into it.

Most of these corpses have traces of being burned, and many of them are even scorched, turning into a completely inhuman black lump.

"Didn't the squad just recruit more people? Why isn't it enough?" Ding Changhan frowned, obviously dissatisfied.

He recalled that more than a month ago, Chinchilla catching the head complained to himself that there had been more homicides recently and that more people needed to be hired. As a result, when the county government posted a notice to recruit people, more than 600 people signed up, many of whom were so-called "Cultivator of Immortals".

Oh my God, the yamen just wanted to recruit a few more errand-runners. I never expected so many people to apply for the job. There are only a few masters who are free to pick people. How can I interview more than 600 people? people.

Headhunters are eager to ask for people, and they don't have superpowers, so they can only use simple and crude methods to screen them a few more times.

First of all, ordinary people who don't know spells are screened out, and the arrester has no force, so it is not easy to deal with gangsters who have learned spells.

But there are still too many left.

Among the crowd, there were more than 400 immortal cultivators who knew spells, and the head catchers who were in charge of maintaining order were worried that if these guys got together to make trouble, if each of them had a fireball spell, the City Lord's Mansion would be burned down.

So they screened again, this time only those on the second level of Qi Refining were asked to quit, and there were only five people left in an instant.

Then, there were five more people in the arresting team.

When the news came back to Ding Changhan's desk, even he was shocked. Whenever the dignified immortal cultivators will come to compete for the position of the fast arrester...

"Many cases involve immortal cultivators, and their actions are neither serious nor serious. After a few quarrels, if the fireball technique fails to prevent them, the people will be gone.

These are all homicide cases, and the brothers can't ignore it..."

Chinchilla said in a low voice.

Immortal cultivators on the first and second floors of Qi Refining basically know the three-axes spells, such as fireball and spirit shield. If they don't react and put on the shield, a fireball can take away the opponent.

Each of them looks like an ancient man holding a burst pistol.

"Heroes use martial arts to break the ban..."

After hearing this, Ding Changhan's face turned even darker.

Even if it's just a small monk at the first level of refining Qi, the fireball technique they release can burn a person to death, and if three fireball techniques hit all of them, three people will be killed.

Originally, it was just a fight of fists and feet, but as soon as it was promoted to magic, it immediately became a matter of life and death.

The attack power of the little monks is still much stronger than the defense power.

Unless it's the foundation building stage and there is aura of body protection, intentions can always be counted as unintentional.

"Recruitment, another batch of recruits, approved. Anyway, those who die are all unstable factors, die, die, die." Ding Changhan was in a bad mood, and after replying to the head-catching Chinchilla, he was furious walked away.

"Hey……"

Although Chinchilla got permission, he still couldn't be happy.

He took time out to participate in the training, and sacrificed 20 years of Yangshou, but he was barely able to refine Qi at the first level. As a result, almost all the younger brothers recruited by the county government are at the second level of Qi refining.

If you want to lead such a group of guys with a higher level of cultivation than yourself, I'm afraid it will not be so easy to command.

Of course, he was also much better than those old police officers who were forced to retire early. The middle-aged and elderly police officers who could not sacrifice blood to Yangshou and practice Yin-Yang and Five Elements Art were basically persuaded to leave by the City Lord's Mansion, and the reason was for their safety.

The Yin-Yang and Five Elements Jue monks who fission like a virus have accounted for one-tenth of the total population in Linzhou City in a short period of time. The police have to deal with them every day. It is indeed a bit dangerous to use mortals to maintain order. And it also lost the face of the City Lord's Mansion.

In the past, Chinchilla, relying on his good skills, firmly occupied the position of the big brother in the police circle. His subordinates were very obedient, and the gang's offerings were also delivered in time. Everyone lived a happy and peaceful life.

But now, no matter how he can fight, he is still a body of flesh and blood, and he will die if his face is smeared by the fireball technique. It is a flame condensed by mana, and it is not an ordinary flame that can be extinguished by slapping it casually.

People die every day. It is not uncommon for people to die on the spot before they meet some desperadoes. There are already two police officers who were accidentally injured by fireball techniques passing by during their daily work...

"Why do I feel more miserable after I become stronger..." With this incomprehensible thought, Chinchilla left the City Lord's Mansion.

……

Zhao House.

"Shui Jing, what do you think of this future?" Zhao Zilin carried a pot of green plum wine and walked into the guest room where Master Shui Jing lived, without caring about the differences between men and women.

"The world is in chaos, and this chaos will eventually spread to the real cultivation world."

It has been a while since they stepped into the cultivation world, and with the help of Yulan and his wife, consciously or unconsciously, Master Shui Jing and the others have a relatively clear understanding of the real cultivation world in Yuanyang Realm.

Before the proliferation of Yin-Yang and Five Elements Jue, the world of mortals and the world of monks had always been distinct.

The monks have almost no interest in the output of mortals. Except for a few guys who need to sacrifice the blood of mortals, most of the things that monks need cannot be produced in the mortal world. The cultivation world is almost a closed economic loop.

Therefore, as long as it is not a mass death of mortal extinction, the high-ranking monks will not take a look.

The world of comprehension doesn't care about the change of dynasties or the struggle for hegemony.

"So what can we do?"

"Exchange all the silver in your hand with spirit stones." Master Shui Jing replied decisively.

"Every monk needs spirit stones for cultivation, and the demand for spirit stones will only increase rapidly, but there are countless mines of spirit stones.

Since the popularity of the Yin-Yang Five Elements Jue, the price of spirit stones has soared from 80 taels of silver to one spirit, and now it is only 120 taels of silver to buy a spirit stone. "

"Our Zhao family has been doing this..."

Zhao Zilin is also a smart businessman, or in other words, people with foresight, intelligence and power in Linzhou City are secretly doing this.

Trafficking spirit stones from places that haven't had time to rise, and selling them at high prices to countless new monks in Linzhou City who are waiting to be fed...
