Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 62 Going North

After leaving Zhan Chengfeng, Lin Ji returned to the side hall with a heavy heart.

Sitting down in the study, all he could think about was the mess in Lianghe County.

"This Lianghe County is really. There was a river god pretending to be a ghost before, and it was affected by the ghosts in Liangcheng. I heard that hundreds of people died, and now this kind of thing happened again."

At this moment, Lin Ji felt that the position under his buttocks was really not easy to sit on.

If it's in the past, it's fine, the world is peaceful, how can there be so many broken things.

But now that the world is in chaos, demons and ghosts have come out to cause trouble.

"While Liangcheng is blocked by ghosts, knowing that Supervisor Tiansi can't get any manpower, are you so bold?"

Lin Ji sighed softly, it was useless to think about it any further.

He is not a person who cares about the world, and has always only cared about his own one-acre three-point land, but this kind of tragedy, ordinary people can't help feeling a little sympathetic.

What's more, Lin Ji was sitting in the position of chief arrester, but he could only stay in Liangcheng peacefully.

"Helpless."

Thinking of this, Lin Ji felt more and more that the chair under his butt was hot.

He couldn't sit still.

He got up and greeted several yamen servants, then hurriedly left the yamen.

Time flies by.

In a blink of an eye, it was already the seventh day since Lin Ji came to Liangcheng.

Early in the morning, after Lin Ji had breakfast at home, he rushed to the government office with a package he had already prepared.

A few days ago, the matter in Lianghe County was gone. I never heard of Zhan Chengfeng's actions, nor did I see the Lianghe County demon hunter who came to deliver the letter.

The matter was put on hold.

In this regard, Lin Ji met Zhan Chengfeng several times in the past few days, but never mentioned it again.

Today was a rare day, as soon as he entered the side hall, Lin Ji ran into Tian Wenliang who was in a hurry.

The last time Tian Wenliang was given three days to sort out the documents in the dossier, this one didn't have anything to say.

In the next few days, Lin Ji didn't come to the government office, so he didn't meet him face to face.

Lin Ji paused, looking at Tian Wenliang with a half-smile.

Tian Wenliang originally planned to pass by in silence, but seeing Lin Ji's gaze, he could only bite the bullet and go forward.

"Master Lin."

"How's the dossier going?"

"Back to my lord, I only sorted out a little bit." Tian Wenliang bowed his head.

Lin Ji nodded, and asked again: "What day is today?"

Tian Wenliang remained silent.

"Since that's the case, why are you still in the Yamen? Is it because what I said doesn't work? The chief arrester of the sixth grade can't control you, a little clerk without an official position?" Lin Ji narrowed his eyes slightly.

"My lord, my little one."

"There's no need to explain. I don't care who ordered you to embarrass me that day. Get out."

Lin Ji waved his hand as if to dismiss flies, and then walked into the study, completely ignoring Tian Wenliang's ugly and extremely aggrieved expression.

After driving away Tian Wenliang, Lin Ji brewed a cup of tea in the study, then leaned on the chair, humming a little song that only he could understand, quite leisurely.

One day has passed.

At noon Lin Ji didn't go back to the house, but sent his subordinates in the yamen to prepare some food casually to fill his stomach.

Then he was leisurely in the study again.

until evening.

"Master Lin, Master Zhan is calling you."

"understood."

Lin Ji picked up the bag, weighed it twice, and then left the study quickly.

In the garden behind the government office, Lin Ji saw Zhan Chengfeng.

The master of dementia is also there.

The two were sitting in the gazebo in the middle of the garden.

"Master Zhan, Master Xing Chi." Lin Ji saluted.

"Sit down." Zhan Chengfeng pointed to the stone bench beside him and said.

After Lin Ji sat down, Master Xingchi smiled and said, "My little friend, you don't seem to be worried? The Ghost King City is not a good place to go."

"If you figure it out, don't worry." Lin Ji replied.

He had expected that something would happen to him a long time ago, and after thinking about the consequences for so long, Lin Ji was already very calm.

He also wanted to understand.

So what about Ghost King City, it wasn't for him to die.

Otherwise, why put him in the position of chief arrester?Is it just to reassure him and make him obedient?
The chief arresting official is not high-ranking, but has a bright future.

If you want to find an obedient ghost to send the dead, what benefits can't be promised, does it have to be the chief arrester?
So Lin Ji was very calm.

"Little friend has a very good heart, which is a good thing." Master Xingchi smiled.

Zhan Chengfeng said bluntly from the side: "When you go out of the city tonight, go north along the official road for twenty miles, and you will see a big banyan tree. Go west at this intersection."

Lin Ji nodded, he knew that this was where the ghost king city was.

"To the north, there are many ghosts on the road, and some of them are powerful. How should we deal with them?" Lin Ji asked, and then looked at Master Xingchi.

Could it be that Master Xingchi also cleaned up the ghosts in the north again?
But the south is far away from the ghost king city, and the ghosts in the north are endless.

"Just use the Soul-Subduing Demon Pestle." Zhan Chengfeng said bluntly, "This thing is especially restrained against ghosts. You have the fourth level, and with the Demon Subduing Pestle, ghosts will not be your opponent."

"What if you meet a handsome ghost?" Lin Ji asked again.

"No." Zhan Chengfeng shook his head, but did not explain the reason.

Lin Ji didn't ask any more questions.

"With the Subduing Demon Pestle opening the way, when you arrive at the Ghost King City, you will naturally meet the Liang City Ghost King. After you see him, tell him the conditions of Jian Tiansi."

"What conditions?"

"Release the soul of Luo Xiang's daughter, gather your subordinates to stay away from Liangcheng, and then move the ghost king city away." Zhan Chengfeng said.

Hearing this, Lin Ji smiled wryly.

"These three conditions are more stringent than the other. What if the Ghost King refuses to agree?"

"Just adapt to the situation." Master Xing Chi laughed at the side.

Lin Ji was silent for a moment, his original confidence was shaken.

After waiting for a long time, Zhan Chengfeng and Master Xingchi didn't speak again, but just looked at Lin Ji quietly.

Lin Ji felt his scalp tingle.

"Is there nothing else to say?"

"No, what you have to do is that simple."

A smile appeared on Zhan Chengfeng's face, and he said, "If you have memorized everything, then go prepare."

"Then I will take my leave." Lin Ji saluted, then turned and went out with a drum in his heart.

After Lin Ji left, Zhan Chengfeng looked at Master Xingchi.

"No matter what happens afterwards, the deadlock in Liangcheng has finally come to an end."

"Master Zhan can finally sleep well." Master Xingchi laughed.

Zhan Chengfeng shook his head.

"After this matter is over, I have to go to Lianghe County. The matter over there has been delayed for a few days, and I can't delay any longer."

Late at night, at the north gate of Liangcheng.

Lin Ji stood on the tower, followed by Sun Hai and Zhu Yu.

"Master Lin is going out of the city? At this time?" Sun Hai pointed to the fiery scene below.

"No way, I can't help myself." Lin Ji shrugged.

"If things go well, Liang Cheng's troubles may end here."

"just in case"

"Shut up, nothing happens."

As soon as the words fell, Lin Ji jumped off the city tower, ignored the ghosts outside the city gate, and went straight to the north.
