After throwing all the bodies into the fire and completely destroying them,

Gu Cheng patted the dust off his body and quietly left the bandit camp.

The location where the bandits set up camp was very remote, belonging to the suburbs of the suburbs.

When Gu Cheng rushed back to Changle County, it was already noon the next day.

Along the street, there was an endless stream of peddlers and vendors coming and going from the south and the north.

Gu Cheng walked on this bustling street, feeling the fireworks of the world coming towards him.

For a moment, he actually felt as if he was in another world, and memories surged in his mind.

The country where Gu Cheng is currently located is a feudal dynasty named [Yan], which has been passed down for thousands of years.

Da Yan has a vast territory and a large population.

Changle County, a small county located in the border area, has a permanent population of nearly 400,000.

It can be seen that this fantasy world cannot be judged by common sense in many places.

Gu Cheng strolled on the streets of the downtown area, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

His tall figure and handsome appearance stood out from the crowd and quickly attracted the attention of the pedestrians around him.

When he noticed the dark blue official uniform of the Demon Suppression Division on the young man, his face changed slightly.

As if avoiding the plague god, they all gave way for a distance, which made Gu Cheng speechless.

Nowadays, demons are rampant and evil cultivators are rampant.

In order to resist the invasion of demons and evil cultivators and maintain the long-term stability of the Great Yan Dynasty.

The court specially set up a branch of the Demon Suppression Division in each county, responsible for killing demons and arresting bandits in the local area.

But in the eyes of most civilians in Changle County.

Compared with going outside the city to kill demons and eliminate demons, these police officers still prefer to confiscate homes and exterminate families in the city.

Chunchun is a bunch of evil ghosts who bully the weak and fear the strong, who will not get up early without profit, and who eat people without spitting out bones!

"But no matter what, I am now a civil servant in the system, right?"

Gu Cheng thought to himself.

Recalling his miserable experience of failing to get a job in the civil service examination several times in his previous life, he was a little amused.

-----------------

The government office of the Demon Division branch of Changle County is located in the center of the downtown area.

Gu Cheng walked into the vermilion gate, and several colleagues who were chatting in the front yard immediately noticed the visitor, but no one came forward to say hello.

The eyes looking at him were also unfriendly, scrutinizing, contemptuous, indifferent, all at the same time.

"..."

Gu Cheng was not surprised by this.

He strode forward without looking sideways, completely treating others as air.

This former bastard was not only a playboy who liked to steal women and jade, but also had a character that burned books and buried scholars, and had conflicts with many colleagues.

Before, he had a powerful father who was a centurion to protect him, and others dared not speak out.

There were even flatterers who came to flatter him.

Now that his father is dead and he has no backing, who in the government will treat him well?

He didn't add insult to injury like Wang Lin did, which was already a consideration for his father's face when he was alive.

But let's be honest.

The reason why Gu Cheng was so hostile to his colleagues.

In addition to his previous reputation and character being really bad, there is another important reason that cannot be ignored...

"Lord Lin!"

"Is Lord Lin going out on another mission?"

"Lord Lin is so dedicated. It is a blessing for Changle County to have a master like you in charge!"

Gu Cheng stepped through the moon gate and heard a series of respectful greetings as soon as he came to the inner courtyard.

Looking up, he saw a tall and beautiful figure walking towards him along the bluestone path, followed by two female adjutants.

This is a textbook cold and beautiful lady.

The waterfall-like black long hair was tied into a high ponytail, gently fluttering behind her with her steps.

Under the silver-white official uniform, the graceful figure was curvy and ready to burst out, which made people fascinated.

Her pace was very fast, and she just hit Gu Cheng face to face.

The two looked at each other.

"..."

"..."

The cold and beautiful lady looked normal, and nodded politely to Gu Cheng, which was considered a greeting.

Gu Cheng nodded subconsciously in response.

To be honest, this was the first time someone greeted him after he returned to the government office.

However, given her cold temperament, she was always indifferent to everyone, so there was nothing to praise.

As for the other two female adjutants, they were very unfriendly. They snorted coldly and turned their heads away with disgust, as if they had seen something dirty that they couldn't bear to look at.

The two sides passed by each other and walked away.

Gu Cheng strode forward, feeling the hostile eyes of his colleagues around him, and felt quite speechless.The cold and beautiful lady he had just met was named Lin Qingyan.

She was the only daughter of Gu Cheng's father's sworn brother.

She was also Gu Cheng's 'fiancée' who was betrothed to him since childhood.

Although due to various subsequent reasons, this marriage had long been in name only, and the two parties had rarely met.

But this did not prevent the group of Lin Qingyan's admirers in the yamen from seeing someone as a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh!

"This is a really bad start..."

Gu Cheng sighed inwardly, his current situation was really bad.

Outside the city, there were various demons from the Black Wind Mountain, and inside the city, people hated the yamen of the Demon Suppression Division.

If this job was not a kind of military service, he would not even be able to resign if he did not work for enough years.

Leaving the territory of the garrison without permission would be directly treated as a deserter.

Gu Cheng wanted to take off his official uniform on the spot and start a new life in another place.

All the way to the entrance of the central hall of the Hundred Households Office.

Gu Cheng looked over and saw a middle-aged man with a plump figure sitting in the main seat of the central hall, reviewing official documents.

This man was called Tang Yuan, a Hundred Household of the Changle County Demon Suppression Division Branch, and Gu Cheng's direct superior.

The previous scouting mission that was a bummer was issued by this fat man.

"I, Gu Cheng, pay my respects to the adults."

Gu Cheng stepped forward and saluted with his fists.

"Well, you're back."

Hearing this, Tang Yuan put down the official documents in his hand, looked up at Gu Cheng, and a strange color suddenly flashed in his eyes.

I don't know if it's an illusion.

Hundred Household Tang inexplicably felt that this kid seemed to have some subtle changes compared to the past few days.

But under the blessing of Gu Cheng's breath-covering mystery, Tang Yuan did not see his improvement in cultivation.

He just thought that his temperament changed drastically after his father died, and his perverse temper was restrained.

"Xiao Gu, I have heard the result from the Chen family."

"That Mr. Chen spent a lot of money to hire a powerful demon catcher, who has rescued Miss Chen in advance, which saved the Demon Suppression Division a lot of trouble."

Captain Tang smiled at Gu Cheng with a very kind attitude.

"Although you made a wasted trip this time, according to the rules of the government office, you still have to be given the credit."

"With the credit you have accumulated before, although it is still not enough to inherit your father's centurion position, it is enough for you to be promoted to the general flag."

Huh? Promotion this time?

Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with surprise.

As far as he knows, some internal positions of the Demon Suppression Division branch are iron rice bowls that can be inherited for several generations.

As long as the descendants are strong enough and their cultivation is enough to convince the public, they can inherit their father's business and rise to the top in one step.

Lin Qingyan can be a centurion of the Demon Suppression Division at such a young age.

It was because of her excellent talent that she broke through to the Qi and Blood Realm at a young age, thus inheriting her father's organization.

From this point of view alone, it is not outrageous that Gu Cheng can be promoted to the general flag now.

But the problem is.

Just based on the previous life of that pitfall, how can he be compared with a genius like Lin Qingyan?

And the merits he accumulated before... What merits can he make? !

Is it to popularize physiological knowledge to young girls?

Or to help lonely wives who stay alone in their empty rooms solve their problems?

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal.

Looking at the kind fat face of Captain Tang.

Gu Cheng's eyes moved slightly, and he felt a hint of conspiracy in his heart.
