Slay demons and gain sixty years of skill at the beginning

After all the clan members had gathered, Fang Zhen came to Gu Chen's side, with a respectful expression, he raised his hands and said, "Master Gu, all the members of my Fang family, old and young, are all here."

Gu Chen did not answer. He stood there and looked around. Everyone in the Fang family, including the servants, were standing not far away. Many of them subconsciously shrank their necks when they saw Gu Chen's glance.

Obviously, the previous confrontation made the Fang family see Gu Chen's strength. Facing such Gu Chen, they naturally felt fear in their hearts.

Among the crowd, Fang Tangjin was also there. One of his cheeks was still very swollen, but he had done some simple treatment. At this moment, he was no longer as arrogant as before. He did not dare to look directly at Gu Chen and stood with his head shrunken. There, silent.

Wu Qian stood aside, watching this scene, feeling a little confused. He didn't know what Gu Chen wanted to do by calling everyone in the Fang family.

But he believed that Gu Chen had a reason to do so.

Gu Chen stood there. The reason why he summoned everyone in the Fang family to stand in front of him was to find out if there were any demons lurking in the Fang family.

Gu Chen was really concerned about what Fang Yong said before his death.

Even the magistrate of Ningcheng was unknowingly possessed by demons. As a member of the Fang family who has the most contact with Fang Yong, there may not be others like Fang Yong.

At this moment, Gu Chen has reached the realm of Tongmai. Both his cultivation and his physique have been greatly improved. This has made his already sharp five senses even sharper. Even if a demon possesses a human, the mixed aura will become difficult to distinguish. , but Gu Chen is confident that if they are face to face or in close contact, he can still identify him.

In this way, a quarter of an hour passed. If Gu Chen didn't speak, no one would dare to speak. The silence in the whole place was a bit terrifying, and gradually began to become a bit depressing. The more Gu Chen behaved like this, the more everyone in the Fang family became more and more depressed. Nervous.

"Let's break up," Gu Chen said.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Fang Zhen looked stunned. He still hadn't reacted, and was very confused by Gu Chen's operation.

Ask everyone from the Fang family to come out and hang out for a while, Gu Chen walks around casually, and then it's over?

What does this mean?

However, seeing that Gu Chen had no intention of explaining, Fang Zhen did not dare to ask.

After confirming that there were no demons lurking in the Fang family, Gu Chen greeted Wu Qian and prepared to leave.

At this time, Fang Zhen hesitated for a moment and suddenly called out to Gu Chen.

"Master Gu, please wait a moment."

When Gu Chen heard this, he turned around, looked at Fang Zhen, and said, "What else can I do?"

Fang Zhen gritted his teeth, hesitated for a while, and asked, "Master Gu, I want to know, is my eldest brother really possessed by a demon?"

Everyone in the Fang family is very puzzled about Fang Yong's death, and they desperately want to know the answer and an explanation.

"I am the patrol envoy of Tiandu Jingtiansi. I think you should also know what Jingtiansi does. If Fang Yong is not possessed by a demon, what benefit will it bring to me if I kill him?"

After Gu Chen said these words, he took Wu Qian and left Fang's house.

In fact, given his status and strength, even if he doesn't answer Fang Zhen and doesn't give an explanation to the Fang family, there is nothing the Fang family can do.

When Fang Zhen heard this, he stood silently without speaking.

On the other side, soon, Gu Chen took Wu Qian back to the county government office and came to the inner hall.

Gu Chen sat at the top, pondered for a while, and said to Wu Qian below: "Captain Wu, in my name, go and summon all the aristocratic families in Ningcheng immediately. Come to the county office in an hour. I have something important to say." ."

"Yes!" Wu Qian responded.

In this way, Gu Chen sat in the county government office, closed his eyes, adjusted his breath, and waited quietly. Soon, an hour passed.

"Master Gu, the Fang family has arrived."

Gu Chen opened his eyes and saw Wu Qian leading Fang Zhen in. When Fang Zhen saw Gu Chen, he cupped his hands and said, "Master Gu, we meet again."

Gu Chen nodded and said nothing.

Fang Zhen didn't care and found a place to sit down.

Not long after, Wu Qian led the second person in.

"Master Gu, Mr. Zhou is here."

At the door, there was a vigorous old man with white beard and hair, who followed Wu Qian into the inner hall.

"I've met Mr. Gu, the old man Zhou Rang." The old man said with a smile and cupped his hands.

"Mr. Zhou." Gu Chen stood up and returned the greeting with a smile.

This Mr. Zhou is not a simple man. He was once the governor of Qingyang County and was responsible for the administration of a county. There are countless county towns like Ningcheng in Qingyang County. Ningcheng is inconspicuous in Qingyang County.

Logically speaking, Zhou Rang would have a better place to go after he retired from the post of county guard. I don’t know how many people tried to persuade him to stay, but Ningcheng is the former residence of the Zhou family, and his ancestral home is here. After you retired from the position of county guard, you returned to Ningcheng with your relatives.

Not only that, when Zhou Rang was in power, he was honest and upright, and he was good at guiding his younger generations. I don’t know how many officials in Qingyang County were discovered and promoted by this old man Zhou. For example, Fang Yong, the magistrate of Ningcheng, was punished when he was young. Zhou Rang received many favors.

Even the current county governor of Qingyang County is said to have been promoted by Zhou Rang. Every year, the county governor comes to Ningcheng to visit him.

It can be said that Mr. Zhou is the real big shot in Ningcheng. Even if he has not been in office for many years, he still has a profound influence in Qingyang County. The Zhou family also has a pivotal position in Ningcheng, but this Mr. Zhou is indifferent to fame and fortune and rarely participates in anything. Therefore, the Zhou family's presence in Ningcheng is not as strong as that of other major families.

But even so, as long as Zhou Rang lives for a day, no one will dare to look down on the Zhou family.

"I've met Mr. Zhou."

Seeing Zhou Rang arriving, Fang Zhen quickly stood up and bowed.

Mr. Zhou was smiling and very kind. He nodded and motioned for Fang Zhen to sit down. Then he found a place to sit down himself.

There are seven major families in Ningcheng. These seven major families control the economic lifeline of Ningcheng, cover many fields, and have a large population. They are the real prominent families in Ningcheng, and they can also be said to be local snakes.

In the entire Ningcheng, only the county government, which was affiliated with the official power of the Daxia Dynasty, could suppress them.

What Gu Chen wants to do this time requires the help of these seven major families.

As time passed, the heads of the remaining families also came to the county government office, except for the Sun family who had not yet arrived.

"Captain Wu, have the Sun family been notified?" Gu Chen looked at Wu Qian.

Wu Qian looked embarrassed. He nodded and said: "I informed you and said I would come, but..."

Gu Chen waved his hand, indicating that it was okay. Regardless of whether he came or not, he was not ready to wait any longer. So, he stood up and said: "Family heads, I'm here, Gu Chen, from Tiandu Jingtiansi. I'm looking for you today." , there is something that I need your help with."

"Master Gu, please speak."

"Lord Gu, it's okay to say so."

Seeing that they were very cooperative, Gu Chen slightly chinned his head and said: "Yesterday, I found two ghosts in Ningcheng one after another. One was the oiran of Yixiang Tower, and the other was the magistrate of Ningcheng, Fang Yong. These two Everyone was possessed by demons. I discovered it yesterday and killed him on the spot. I believe everyone is aware of this news."

Zhou Rang and the others nodded one after another. Ningcheng was not that big, not to mention that they all had their own news channels. They all knew about the news not long after it happened.

In fact, these people are definitely the first to know about any disturbance in Ningcheng.

Seeing this, Gu Chen continued: "Last night, before he died, Magistrate Fang told me that there are still demons lurking in Ningcheng..."

Before Gu Chen finished speaking, a burst of laughter suddenly came from outside the door, interrupting whatever he wanted to say next.
