The Demon Suppression Division, the study room.
As soon as he stepped into this familiar territory.
Zhao Qianhu's tense expression, like thawing ice, instantly became relaxed.
He warmly invited Gu Cheng to sit down in front of the tea table, and took out his own collection of tea leaves to make a pot of hot tea.
The curling hot steam rose from the two tea cups, and the atmosphere seemed particularly peaceful.
For a long time.
Zhao Qianhu hesitated for a long time before speaking:
"Xiao Cheng, there was a little accident about your going to the headquarters to participate in the final assessment..."
"You should have heard about the previous Tianshui County purge, right?
Thanks to this incident, this year's review standards are far higher than in previous years. Even if you are like you who use the internal recommendation channel, you have to go through another preliminary review." Zhao Qianhu's expression was a little embarrassed.
After all, he had vowed before and boasted that he could ask someone to send Gu Cheng all the way.
Who would have thought that there would be another audit checkpoint later...
"Within ten days, the special auditor will come to Changle County with the team investigating the remnants of the Rebirth Sect.
You don't have to be too stressed. He is just going through the motions and simply testing your talent and strength.
As long as you pass the test, you can immediately follow him back to Tianshui City."
"Well, I know. Thank you, Lord Zhao, for telling me."
Gu Cheng nodded politely, without a ripple in his heart.
It's just an extra step of audit.
Compared to the cumbersome review of the normal route, the backdoor that Zhao Qianhu asked someone to help him through has saved most of the process.
"Hey, we are all family, why be so polite."
Captain Zhao waved his hand, took a sip of hot tea, and said meaningfully:
"With your talent, you will definitely shine in this department in time. Maybe in a few years, I will still have to rely on you..."
Hearing this, Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with a strange color, and then he instantly understood something.
With the tough and overbearing style of the Tianshui City headquarters.
The general who came this time will probably not only investigate the matter of the Rebirth Sect, but also clean up the termites in the branch office.
In this way, Captain Zhao, the pit who took the lead in the rottenness, will naturally bear the brunt.
If he is really blamed, even if he has someone above him, this captain's official position will most likely not be kept.
For this reason, Captain Zhao naturally has to get along well with Gu Cheng, a potential stock, and find a way out for his future development.
Thinking of this, Gu Cheng suddenly thought of something and asked hurriedly:
"By the way, Lord Zhao, with Captain Lin's talent and strength, didn't you invite her to the headquarters before?"
"Ah? You didn't know about this? I thought Xiaoyan had told you."
Captain Zhao glanced at Gu Cheng with a strange look on his face.
Seeing that the confusion on his face didn't seem fake, he explained softly:
"As early as two years ago, I suggested that she go to the headquarters in Tianshui City to develop.
But she insisted on staying in Changle County on the grounds of avenging her father, and somehow, she seemed to have no interest in being promoted to the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Division..."
Speaking of this, Captain Zhao looked up at Gu Cheng's handsome face, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
"By the way, Xiaocheng, why don't you persuade Xiaoyan to go with you to Tianshui City?
Anyway, the enemy who killed her father has been killed by a demon hunter, so there is no need for her to stay in Changle County any longer..."
Zhao Qianhu suggested sincerely.
Out of personal selfishness, he really didn't want to see this talented and beautiful couple separate.
"..."
Gu Cheng lowered his head and stared at the steam rising from the teacup, silent.
After nearly eight days of daily interaction on Black Wind Mountain.
Gu Cheng was very sure that the cold and beautiful sister must have some big secrets.
The reason why the other party was unwilling to go to the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Division was probably because he was unwilling to take the special recruitment route of "Blue Dragon Hundred Refining", and she had her own special considerations, right?
In this case, he was even less likely to influence other people's ideas.
After that, Gu Cheng and Zhao Qianhu chatted while drinking tea.
After the two of them finished the pot of good tea, Gu Cheng said goodbye and left.
Looking at the back of the young man walking away.
Captain Zhao retracted his gaze and sighed faintly.
"Alas~ I hope that my merit in recommending talents for this department can make up for my mistakes."
As he said, he walked to the desk.
He took out a brand new piece of rice paper and started practicing calligraphy again.
However, because he had too many distracting thoughts in his mind at this time, the big characters he wrote were far below his usual level.
In his wild thoughts, Captain Zhao suddenly frowned, as if he had discovered some blind spots.
"Strange... The old man of the Zheng family clearlyTwo sons died, why is the reaction so quiet today? "
"According to the usual style of the Zheng family, shouldn't they have come to the government office to put pressure on the Demon Suppression Division to severely punish the murderer?"
Captain Zhao's writing stopped abruptly.
The thick ink spread on the rice paper, forming an abrupt ink stain.
He knew how much the Zheng family patriarch valued his two precious sons.
In order to get the second son of the Zheng family into the Demon Suppression Division, the other party had spent a lot of money on the government office of the Demon Suppression Division.
Now that the two sons are dead, the old man of the Zheng family has no reaction at all, which is too abnormal.
"Is it because of excessive grief, and there is no greater sorrow than the death of the heart? "
Captain Zhao thought so in his heart.
He decided to wait a few more days and then personally visit the well-known local tycoon in Changle County to express his condolences.
-----------------
Three days later.
In the suburbs of Changle County, there is a dense forest.
Two wolf-headed monsters with human bodies were fleeing rapidly in the forest.
Looking at their panicked appearance of using their hands and feet, they were already extremely frightened, as if they were being chased by some extremely terrible enemy.
In a moment, a tall figure suddenly rushed out from the nearby bushes.
Like an arrow from a bow, it rushed straight towards the two wolf monsters!
"Die! "
Xiao Yun's expression was stern, and the cold sword energy gathered on the long sword.
He aimed at the vital point of a wolf demon and swung the sword to chop it!
Just when the sharp blade was about to touch the shiny fur of the wolf demon.
Crackle——
Accompanied by the sound of an electric current breaking through the air.
A black sword surrounded by azure lightning was actually the first to arrive and was swung down first.
Xiao Yun only felt a silver-white ghost flashing before his eyes.
When he came to his senses, the two wolf demons had already The head and body were separated, and the dead could not be deader.
The high temperature of the lightning made the cut black, so not a drop of demon blood flowed out, and a pungent burnt smell was emitted.
"..."
Xiao Yun looked at the headless bodies of the two wolf demons, and then looked at the handsome centurion standing beside him with a knife.
His resolute face was full of depression and confusion.
Alas...
This Lord Gu is good in everything, but he loves to steal heads too much.
In these three days, all the demons the two encountered were Gu Cheng took care of everything, and he wanted to kill a chicken himself.
Xiao Yun's sword was almost rusted.
[Kill the wolf demon in the Tempering Body Realm, and get lifespan: 31 years]
[Kill the wolf demon in the Tempering Body Realm, and get lifespan: 29 years]
[Remaining lifespan: 1,024 years]
Gu Cheng put Mo Yu back into the scabbard, looked at the refreshed record on the panel, and his mouth curled up slightly.
During these three days, the Black Wind Mountain demon that had been hiding suddenly became active again. Come.
I don't know if he was bewitched by the Rebirth Religion, or if he had some special purpose.
But no matter what, Gu Cheng had a good time eating buffet.
Although most of them were small fish and shrimps in the Tempering Body Realm, they were not as good in quality as in quantity.
With his sweeping harvest, he actually broke through his lifespan to four digits again.
"With a lifespan of more than a thousand years, it shouldn't be a problem to krypton the "Crimson Palace Heavenly Thunder Induction" to perfection, right?"
Gu Cheng's mind suddenly became hot.
He couldn't wait to personally test the powerful power of the Xu family's thunder method!
