Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 352 The Strangeness of the Giant

Unlike all the other government offices Yang Qian had visited, the one in Shuangqing Prefecture was much larger!
There were hardly any common people doing business in the government offices, but rather quite a few officers dressed in military uniforms walking around.

Passing through the corridor, Yang Qian followed Zhang Wan into the main hall. Only Hu An followed him, while the rest of the imperial guards were arranged in the courtyard behind the government office. Someone would lead them to the big house that Shuangqing Mansion had arranged for Yang Qian.

And for the first time, Yang Qian saw the important figure in Shuangqing Prefecture whom he had been thinking about for a long time: Xiao Cangyu.

"Hahaha! Sir Yang, I have been looking forward to seeing you here for so long!"

"Your subordinate Yang Qian greets Master Xiao!"

Yang Qian greeted the man politely, but he couldn't help but feel suspicious, because the man in front of him, Xiao Cangyu, the Lord of Shuangqing Mansion, looked so tall and strong that he didn't look like a human!

His height alone was probably about eight feet, right? He was also big and strong, with a fierce look on his face. He looked like a veteran warrior who had just come down from the battlefield. He exuded a fierce aura and had a primitive aggression that was extremely prominent.

It seems like this person will pounce on you and tear you into pieces in the next moment.

It was written on the list before that Xiao Cangyu was born with supernatural powers and was unusually tall. Because of this, even though his family was in a state of poverty, he still applied for the opportunity to serve as an official in the border town. He also made many outstanding achievements in the army. Later, he was sent to Shuangqing Prefecture because the government wanted to arrange a decisive person to come to Shuangqing Prefecture to maintain order, so they chose him.

Therefore, in Yang Qian's mind, Xiao Cangyu has always been an image of a "tough scholar" who is both literary and martial.

But now, he is estimated to be about eight feet tall and weighs more than 300 kilograms! It is not enough to describe him as a "big man" or "strong man", and it is difficult to describe him as a "giant man".

"Hahaha, Lord Yang, there's no need to be so polite. You are an immortal master, and a great immortal master at that. I cannot accept your courtesy. Besides, you are personally sent by His Majesty. Although your title is Chief Constable, you and I are actually equal. You must not be so polite in the future. Otherwise, if it gets out, people will laugh at me, Xiao Cangyu, for not knowing the rules."

Just from the few words they exchanged during the meeting, Xiao Cangyu gave people the impression of being generous and frank.

They look like the carefree men in the army. Many scholars also look down on this kind of style, thinking it is superficial and ignorant of rules.

But Yang Qian didn't care about Xiao Cangyu's attitude. What he cared about was whether the Lord of Shuangqing Mansion was an evil cultivator in the out-of-body realm as the fox demon Hu Ming told him!
Very strange!
What's the blame?

The strange thing is that Yang Qian couldn't tell whether Xiao Cangyu was a cultivator or not, let alone his cultivation level.

The fluctuations of his aura, qi and blood, and magic power were all very clear. He looked like a cultivator in the Qi training stage whose aura and qi and blood were too strong. His cultivation level did not seem to be much stronger than Juan's.

However, Yang Qian's divine sense could discover unusual clues in these sensations, that is, the actual sensations did not match the threat that Yang Qian felt from Xiao Cangyu!
Now, Yang Qian and Xiao Cangyu were only ten feet apart, and he felt an even stronger sense of crisis than when he faced Bai Xian at Baiguling.

Yang Qian trusted his sense of danger. This instinct-like sense was also described in "The Sky-Bearing Tyrant Body Part 1". It said that although all living creatures have this sense, martial artists have a much stronger body and soul structure and strength than ordinary creatures, and are even much stronger than magic practitioners of the same realm, so their sense is more accurate.

If the spiritual sense has no reaction, it means that the opponent is not a threat to oneself. On the contrary, the stronger the spiritual sense reaction is, the more dangerous the opponent is to oneself, and it is even better to turn around and run. But even if you believe in your spiritual sense, it can only mean that Xiao Cangyu's cultivation and combat power are very likely to be higher than Bai Xian of Baiguling, but Yang Qian still cannot directly judge whether Xiao Cangyu is an ordinary cultivator or an evil cultivator.

At the same time, Yang Qian was also very curious about what means Xiao Cangyu used to disguise himself to such an extent. If it weren't for the martial artist's unique spiritual perception, he would have been deceived.

In addition, Yang Qian was almost deceived. How did the fox demon Hu Ming, who had previously told him that Xiao Cangyu's cultivation had reached the middle stage of the out-of-body realm, know this situation?
After some greetings, Yang Qian sat down and Xiao Cangyu began to tell Yang Qian about the situation of the Shuangqing Prefecture government office and all the preparations made for Yang Qian's arrival.

For example, the Shuangqing Prefecture government office, like other places in the Hongwu Dynasty, would not interfere with the police station in most cases. But at the same time, the police station had to report the recent cases to the government office regularly. If a major case occurred, it would be subject to supervision by the government office.

Then there is the current situation of the police station.

"The provincial police station is divided into five flags, but there is no patrol department. Because the situation here is special, the existence of the patrol department is not very meaningful, and it can also save manpower.

Previously, the affairs of the chief constable were handled by Li Yi, the constable of the Jia Banner. After the news that Lord Yang was coming to take up the post reached Shuangqing Prefecture, Li Yi began to reorganize the police station and had been waiting for Lord Yang to arrive.

Just like the baggage, training, and documents and files, Li Yi will explain them clearly to Lord Yang when the time comes."

After saying that, Xiao Cangyu paused, and then said in a seemingly flattering tone: "I am familiar with Lord Yang's reputation in Jizhou Prefecture in Shuangqing Prefecture. Thanks to Lord Yang's management, Jizhou Prefecture is clean and bright inside and out. I also hope that Lord Yang can show his prowess in Shuangqing Prefecture again."

Yang Qian knew that Xiao Cangyu was praising him too much. Once a person is praised too much, it will be difficult for him to bend down and do things, which is equivalent to limiting his range of maneuvers in disguise.

In Xiao Cangyu's opinion, Yang Qian was so young but he had such a high position and his cultivation was even more terrifying, so he must be arrogant. If he praised him, he might get unexpected rewards.

But Yang Qian was a cheater, and he knew it very well. In addition, he had lived two lives and had a very clear mind, so why would he care about this flattery at this moment?

However, it is impolite not to reciprocate. Yang Qian was no stranger to such tricks, and he said, "Master Xiao, you are too kind. Yang Qian was lucky enough to make some contributions in Jizhou Prefecture. The situation in Shuangqing Prefecture is complicated now, and I am not afraid of being laughed at by you. My head hurts now.

Fortunately, the police station has a ready-made clue, otherwise I really don’t know how to open up the situation.”

"Oh? So Lord Yang already has an idea?"

"Yes, didn't the last chief constable Zheng Yue disappear for no reason? I plan to start with the investigation of Zheng Yue's disappearance. Maybe if I dig out something with a hoe, even the skin and bones, I can use it.

What do adults think? "
