Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 366: Twenty-seven Killed in Battle
Wu Daquan started to lead people around the city yesterday, beating drums and gongs. Apart from a dozen newcomers from the police station who had not yet been recruited by Xiao Cangyu, the rest were the imperial guards under Yang Qian.

There were more than twenty people in total, divided into two groups. They would make a round in the morning and at noon. What they shouted was that the new chief constable was ready to clear out the villains in the city, especially the real culprits behind the "unexplained deaths". Once they were found, they would be executed without mercy.

The common people just watched the police's words for fun. They would also talk about it in private during casual conversations. But they didn't really believe it, but they didn't think it was a bad thing either.

After all, the mention of "death without reason" was the most frightening thing in the past. Death without a sound or sign was a huge hidden danger for everyone. If the pass in Shuangqing Prefecture was not too strict and the situation in other cities was worse than here, everyone in the prefecture would have run away long ago.

Now the government has finally come forward to talk about this matter. Even if it cannot be eradicated, will it make the situation a little better?

The majority of ordinary people hold this idea.

From the third day on, the row house area where the most deaths were caused by no reason suddenly had more constables and yamen runners, who took turns guarding the area twelve hours a day, which made the poor people here stunned. When did the housekeeper care so much about the lives of these people?

Then, after thinking about it, he remembered the name of Lord Yang Qian, who was beating drums and gongs during the day.

It seems that things are really different with the arrival of Lord Yang?

After that, for half a month, no one died in the townhouse. Even in the entire city, only a few people died.

Even ordinary people felt the sudden effect, not to mention those in the government and the military who knew more about the situation.

But contrary to the growing expectations of the common people, the government offices and the military were shrouded in dark clouds for more than half a month. Almost all middle and high-level officials had gloomy faces, as if they were holding back some anger.

How many years have we been looking for sacrifices in the city? Now that Yang Qian has come, we can no longer do it? That doesn't make sense!

What to do next?
All those affected stared at the government office, or rather at Xiao Cangyu, waiting to see how Xiao Cangyu would react.

But Xiao Cangyu's reaction was very subtle. He just told everyone not to act rashly and didn't say anything else.

Although he didn't say it, he wouldn't just admit defeat like that in secret.

After all, Yang Qian had made it clear that he would not compromise, and would not play tricks with Xiao Cangyu to find a balance. In a word: it was a life-and-death battle.

So early in the morning, a piece of bad news reached Yang Qian from the police station.

All 27 people who went to Bianxia City to investigate Zheng Yue's villa died. Before they died, they were unable to use the talisman, which could give the fastest warning.

It was not until the next day that the officials in Bianxia City saw that there was no movement after the group went there, and sent people to check. Only then did they find the body, and then the urgent letter from Feiyu was sent back. It had been several days since then.

Yang Qian looked at the Feiyu letter in his hand, his face was livid. He even asked Juan to send more people, but they were all killed. This could only be done by a cultivator in the middle or late Jindan stage.

"Sir, I am ready to go to Lord Bian immediately."

Yang Qian waved his hand, interrupting Juan's words. After a moment of silence, he said, "Let Wu Daquan retreat first. Don't act rashly while I'm away."

"Sir, are you going there in person?"

"Well. The current situation of Bianxia is unclear. Feiyuxin was also sent by Bianxia's people. We don't know if it is actually what they said. You may not be able to solve the problem even if you go there and waste time and effort. It's better for me to go there myself. Remember, don't do anything rash before I come back. Just guard the police station and don't care about other provocations.

Understand? "

"My subordinate understands!"

What Yang Qian needs to find out first is who killed the 27 people in Bianxia. Was it Xiao Cangyu's people or Wanli Zhuhai's people?
After Yang Qian gave Juan a few instructions, he walked out of the government office directly, soared into the sky, and headed towards Bian Xia.

This scene could not be concealed from anyone, not to mention that the whereabouts of the police station and Yang Qian were the focus of attention in the city. As soon as Yang Qian left, those who were interested immediately knew about it and spread the news.

Xiao Cangyu immediately felt the surge of Yang Qian's magic power when he left in his official room. Then Zhang Wan came to report that the constables and yamen runners who were wandering around in the city had withdrawn after a fistfight.

"He flew away on a cloud, proving that he is at the Nascent Soul stage. I am even more curious about the chaotic aura on this guy. How on earth did he manage to hide no trace of his cultivation? This is no less hidden than the blood crystal on me."

"Sir, no matter how good he is at hiding, the current situation will definitely expose him! Sir, when do you think we should set off?"

"No hurry." Xiao Cangyu put down the document in his hand, took two sips from the teacup and said, "Let Wanli Zhuhai do it first."

Zhang Wan hesitated for a moment and then reminded, "Sir, the people we stationed in Qibao Mountain and Yuzhu Forest have not received any news. Could it be that Wanli Bamboo Sea is also waiting for us to take the initiative? Do you think we should inform them?"

"Communicate? There's no need for that. Do you think Chansi Cave and Feiyun Valley will remain indifferent to such a huge massacre at Baigu Ridge and the Thirty-three Caves? They don't care whether we communicate or not, and they are also unlikely to leave Yang Qian alone.

Even if they can really hold their temper, I will just light another fire for them, make it burn brighter so that we can see clearly. "

After a pause, Xiao Cangyu continued, "Use the talisman to send a message to Xia Feng, the head of Bianxia Yamen, and ask him to show Yang Qian what Qibaoshan and Yuzhulin did in Bianxia. The more miserable, the better.

Doesn’t Yang Qian hate evil?
Let him destroy Qibao Mountain and Yuzhu Forest as well. If that were the case, wouldn't Chansi Cave and Feiyun Valley attack immediately? Haha, just watch the show."

Zhang Wan understood immediately.

While quickly taking out the talisman from Bian Xia's storage bag, he immediately passed the message over according to what Xiao Cangyu had just said.

He then asked, "Sir, what if Yang Qian can really hold his temper and Wanli Zhuhai doesn't take any action?"

What Zhang Wan said was a possibility. After all, the one who should be most anxious now is Xiao Cangyu's side, not Wanli Zhuhai. As long as Wanli Zhuhai holds back and Yang Qian keeps his cool, the situation will hardly change from now.

The troubles that need to be solved will still stand in front of Xiao Cangyu's side.

Xiao Cangyu smiled and said, "If it's really as you said, then it's our turn to take action. You don't need to know about this. I will discuss it with Sun Kuan."

Zhang Wan quickly bowed and responded. He knew that when it came to killing, his master trusted Sun Kuan, the current military commander, more.
