In the Demon Suppression Division, the Iron-Cutting Sword Technique is perfected

Sun Baichuan felt worse than eating a dead fly.

He had complained to Hu Qingyun before, wanting his adoptive father to help him.

Who would have thought that because of the dragon turtle incident, his best friend would betray him!

What the hell is this? !

Sun Baichuan looked like he had lost all hope in life. He knelt on the ground with a plop and said to Gu Cheng prostrating himself:

"Brother Cheng, I know I was wrong."

"..."

Gu Cheng glanced at the kneeling black-shirted lieutenant and opened the jade box in his hand.

Tsk——

A scorching demonic aura spread out instantly, causing the temperature of the courtyard to rise sharply.

Gu Cheng looked closely and found that the jade box contained an egg-sized innate demon core!

It was red all over, emitting a dark red demonic aura like flames, and vaguely formed the shadow of a flaming monster bird.

Judging from the strength of the demonic power contained in this red demon core, the strength of this flame monster bird in its lifetime must be no less than that of the green water demon ape.

"What a good thing!"

Gu Cheng was delighted, closed the lid of the jade box, and put it into the storage bag.

Then he smiled and helped Sun Baichuan, who was prostrating himself, up with both hands.

The feud between the two was resolved.

Hu Qingyun pulled his adopted son behind him, bowed to Gu Cheng, and said seriously:

"Young Master Gu, the family behind Hu has a certain foundation in Tianshui City.

With the talent and potential you have shown now, you will definitely be vigorously cultivated by the Demon Suppression Department, and there will be no shortage of resources for cultivation.

But if you have any material needs in the future, Hu will do his best to meet your requirements!"

"Gu kid, don't be polite to this old fox!"

Xu Wenying smiled and echoed from the side:

"The Hu family is one of the richest families in Tianshui City.

Many shops, restaurants, casinos, and auction houses in Tianshui City are all the property of the Hu family. They have so much money that they can't spend it all in several lifetimes.

If you have any treasure you want, or want to go to the casino to have fun, just tell him and rip off this rich man!"

"Get out of here, you old man who owes money!"

Hu Qingyun glared at his old friend fiercely, then smiled at Gu Cheng, tacitly agreeing with what he had just said.

The treasure you want?

Gu Cheng's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, and he bowed to the elegant man and said:

"Sir Hu, I do have a treasure, and I would like to ask you to help me find it."

"Oh? You can tell me!"

Hu Qingyun waved his hand, his tone quite arrogant.

"That's a very old guqin. It's said that it appeared in an auction house in Tianshui City not long ago..."

Gu Cheng nodded and added:

"The name of the guqin is - Dead Wood Dragon's Song."

"Dead Wood Dragon's Song?!"

Hearing this, the other four people in the courtyard suddenly looked strange, and looked at Gu Cheng with strange eyes.

"???"

Gu Cheng frowned slightly and was about to ask.

"Oh, I didn't realize that you are also into this?"

Xu Wenying looked Gu Cheng up and down, his expression immediately became serious, and he warned him earnestly:

"But...Gu boy, beauty is a knife that scrapes bones, you must not delay your cultivation because of indulging in women."

"Okay, you old thing, stop worrying about it. It is normal for a genius like Gu Shaoxia to be a little romantic at a young age."

Hu Qingyun said to his old friend and bowed to Gu Cheng:

"Gu Shaoxia, please rest assured. Within a month, Hu will present the 'Withered Tree Dragon Roar' with both hands."

After saying that, the three of them turned and left, leaving someone standing there with a confused face.

"Strange, did they misunderstand something?

How is this Withered Tree Dragon Roar related to indulging in women?"

Gu Cheng was confused and turned to look at the one-armed swordsman beside him.

Cao Jianxin understood instantly, pondered for a moment, and explained softly:

"Brother Gu, do you still remember the Miss Tianyin from Chunfeng Tower that I mentioned to you before?"

"Is it the courtesan who is proficient in music?" Gu Cheng frowned slightly.

"Why? Is there any connection between her and this withered wood dragon sound harp?"

"Of course there is a connection."

Cao Jianxin nodded and continued:

"It is said that this ancient harp 'withered wood dragon sound' is the ancestral item of Miss Tianyin.

It is a pity that her family fell into poverty later, and she was forced to sell herself, and the ancient harp disappeared."

"Miss Tianyin has been committed to recovering this ancient harp, and she once issued a reward for this:

Whoever can bring back the withered wood dragon sound for her can become her lover and spend a good night with her..."

After saying that, Cao Jianxin glanced at Gu Cheng quietly, and smiled secretly in his heart.

If he didn't know that the other party was really a master of zither art and it was normal for him to like collecting famous zithers, he would probably have preconceived ideas.

"..."

Gu Cheng was speechless.

Well, no wonder their expressions were so strange just now.

It turned out that they thought he was an old pervert who wanted to please the courtesan...

But let's talk about it.

If this dead wood dragon chant is really an heirloom of Miss Tianyin.

Doesn't that mean that the ancestor of the courtesan once gave birth to a great master of refining spirits?

Three days later.

Tianshui Town Demon Division Office, canteen.

Gu Cheng sat alone in a corner seat, quietly enjoying the food.

The benefits of the Demon Suppression Division have always been good. When he was in the Changle County branch, he could eat for free. It was even more exaggerated when he arrived at the headquarters in Tianshui City.

Not only can they cook fish and meat, but occasionally there will be a limited supply of medicinal meals specially prepared for warriors.

It was already afternoon, and there were not many people in the canteen. Most of them gathered in twos and threes, whispering about the recent major events in the Demon Suppression Division.

While enjoying the medicinal meal, Gu Cheng listened attentively and got a lot of gossip...

"Hey, do you think that the Blood Knife Sect is going to revive again?"

A black-shirted lieutenant lowered his voice and whispered to his colleagues at the same table:

"Why are all the tasks on the task board of the Foreign Affairs Hall related to the investigation of the evil cultivators of the Blood Knife Sect recently?"

"Hey, isn't this obvious? The evil method of the Blood Blade Sect is so special that as long as you are willing to kill people and suck their blood, you can quickly become stronger.

For those martial artists without background, few people can resist such temptation. ”

A bearded lieutenant echoed:

“But don’t worry, the Blood Blade Sect has been in decline since the death of the former leader of the Spiritual Sea Realm. Now it is nothing more than a few annoying cockroaches.”

“The number one enemy of our Demon Suppression Division is still the Dragon Palace of Tianshui River!”

Hearing this, several other black-shirted lieutenants nodded frequently to show their agreement.

“Yes, those damned worms have become restless again recently.”

“I heard that a few days ago, several dragons of the Xiantian Realm suddenly appeared in Baihe County. They made clouds and rain, stirred up storms, and tried to flood the county! "

"Fortunately, the Demon Suppression Division was well prepared for this and secretly dispatched General Xu to guard here and drive away those dragons in time, otherwise Baihe County would have become a swamp long ago!"

"Eh? You said... these dragons suddenly attacked Baihe County. Could it be that they were seeking revenge for the dragon turtle two days ago?"

"..."

Gu Cheng's chewing suddenly stopped.

Because they didn't dare to go wild in Tianshui City, they chose to vent their anger on the nearby civilians?

These beasts are really getting more and more suicidal...

Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and he became more and more curious about the taste of "dragon meat".
