Tianbao Fuyao Lu

Chapter 12: Take office immediately

Views:

Li Jinglong and Hong Jun sat opposite each other in the hall. Hong Jun felt relieved and said, "It's in your heart, that's great. I finally found it."

In the past few days, Hong Jun really didn't think about food and drink, thinking about the whereabouts of the heart lamp over and over every day, and now he finally got rid of a serious problem.

"How to take it out and return it to you?" Li Jinglong asked.

Hong Jun spread his hands helplessly, and said, "Let's leave it with you for now."

Li Jinglong hesitated to speak, and finally nodded.

Hong Jun decided to write a letter to Yaojin Palace asking for help, but how to send it? Let Zhao Zilong go back to deliver the letter? But this carp demon is lazy and doesn't like to walk because he is afraid of foot pain, and the journey is far away, so he is afraid of danger if he walks alone. He was also afraid that Qingxiong would not be in the Yaojin Palace, so when Chongming received the letter, his reply must be "if it's wrong, it's none of my business".

It's really difficult... Hong Jun thought, looking up at Li Jinglong, he always felt that he seemed to have something to say.

"This heart lamp is stored on me." Li Jinglong pondered, "Will there be any changes in me?"

"There won't be any trouble." Hong Jun hurriedly explained, "Among the internal organs, the heart belongs to fire, and the heart lamp will protect your heart veins. Moreover, the power of this lamp is clear and pure, and the light is full of righteousness. It will never do any harm."

Li Jinglong nodded again, but it seemed that there was still a fierce struggle in his heart. Hong Jun didn't know, so he observed his expression, and finally Li Jinglong asked again: "Will I have mana because of this?"

"Ah?" Hong Jun replied suspiciously, "It should be... unlikely... right. There is no mana in your meridians, and if you give you a magic weapon, it may not be able to activate it."

Li Jinglong said to himself: "Understood, I am a mortal."

There seemed to be a little disappointment in that tone, and Hong Jun suddenly understood his disappointment, and asked, "You don't want to be a mortal, do you?"

Li Jinglong looked up at Hongjun and asked, "You, Mo Rigen, Hammurabi, Qiu Yongsi, all of you have mana in your meridians, don't you?"

Hong Jun seldom thinks about this kind of problem. Although the other three have never made any moves, but based on the fact that Artest can ignite a fire with a simple rub that day, they should also know magic.

"Yes." Hong Jun replied honestly.

"Where did this mana come from?" Li Jinglong asked again.

Hong Jun was stopped by Li Jinglong's question, he never thought about it.

"It's natural." The carp demon lay outside the hall basking in the sun, turned his face and said, "Don't think about it. Otherwise, how do you say 'family'?"

Li Jinglong gave a final "hmm" and replied, "Don't tell other people about the heart lamp."

"Although you are a mortal." Hong Jun comforted, "But you have a sword, your sword is quite amazing, the five-color divine light is even the fire my father sprayed..."

"Hello!" The carp demon stopped Hong Jun from comforting him outside, so that he would not expose his family background and talk more and more.

When Li Jinglong heard this, he suddenly regained his energy, got up and took his own sword, put it on the case, and said, "This is Di Gong's sword from before."

Hong Jun was finally able to take a good look at the sword, and Li Jinglong suddenly had a feeling, and said in a daze: "When I was young, I admired Duke Di, and I read a book he handed down. Immortals in the misty land of China; there are also demons who gather hostile energy, linger all day long, and reincarnate for hundreds of years... "

Hong Jun touched the sword and thought, "So don't you want to be an exorcist like other mortals?"

Li Jinglong watched Hong Jun caressing the fingers of the sword, and said slowly: "That's not true, it's just maybe because of my nature, I was born fascinated by it."

"I still remember that there is a passage at the end of the book, which is what Di Gong said - in the past 100 years, the land of China is about to usher in a catastrophe that will destroy everything, but he was born at an untimely time, and he is almost an octogenarian. There is no successor for the important task, I am afraid that after the soul returns to the loess, China will be in chaos. Duke Di will pass down a book and a sword, and the successor must protect the land of China."

When Hong Jun heard this, he was suddenly touched by Li Jinglong's seriousness. The Great Chaos in Shenzhou would not happen, but according to the tasks assigned to him by Chongming and Qingxiong, many monsters are lurking in the world, so the Chang'an Xiaochao should be Inevitably.

"Where's the book?" After reading the sword, Hong Jun suddenly became curious when he remembered the "Heavenly Demon" mentioned by his father Zhongming and Qingxiong.

"It was burned by my father." Li Jinglong replied, focusing on the sword in Hongjun's hand, "They never believed it, and only regarded it as the nonsense of Di Gong when he was old."

Hong Jun pondered for a moment. Although he didn't know the origin of this sword, he also knew that it was not an ordinary soldier, so he asked, "Where did you find this sword?"

Li Jinglong replied: "In the hands of a businessman from the Western Regions, I accidentally discovered it at an auction in Jubaozhuang dozens of years after Di Gong passed away. In order not to fall into the hands of barbarians, I sold a lot of belongings before I sold it. I bought it back... I don't know why I said this to you... That's all."

Hong Jun: "?"

Li Jinglong sighed, and said lightly: "Maybe you are the only one who believes in me."

"Mo Zhigen and the others will also believe you." Hong Jun comforted him. He didn't know the origin of the sword, but he always felt as if he had seen it somewhere.

Li Jinglong replied: "I don't want to talk too much with them, that's all."

At that time, Hongyun didn't know that there were many troubles in the world, such as "unrecognized talents" and "untimely birth", but after these words, he was afraid of Li Jinglong from the beginning, and gradually began to understand him a little bit.

"By the way." Hong Jun had an idea, and said, "Although mortals don't have spells, maybe they can rely on practice? I remember..."

"Hong Jun!" The carp demon turned around like frying fish outside, and shouted, "Don't hurt him again!"

Hong Jun thought that with his trouble-making physique, he might make Li Jinglong into a mess again, so he had to give up for the time being.

At the beginning, Li Jinglong only thought that Hong Jun was a young master who was fooling around and doing nothing. After getting acquainted with him, he suddenly found that he was not as stubborn as his first impression, and changed a lot accordingly. When he was about to inquire about his life experience, Mo Zhigen brought Artest and Qiu Yongsi back.

"I found it—" Qiu Yongsi couldn't help wiping his sweat, panting from exhaustion, and put a box on the table. Li Jinglong was about to open it, but Hong Jun quickly pressed it down and said, "I have to pinch my nose, find a box that doesn't have wind." When the pollen is released, it will be over when the pollen flies out, and everything will be forgotten.”

"Everyone has been looking for it for a long time." Mo Zhigen couldn't laugh or cry, "You two drink tea here?"

Li Jinglong coughed, the majesty of Chang Shi is still there.

Artest obviously followed up and said, "Chang Shi took the money?"

Li Jinglong took out the money pouch, Artest panted again, and said, "It's three thousand two hundred taels of silver."

Li Jinglong: "..."

"Three thousand two hundred taels of silver?!" Li Jinglong roared, "How is it possible?!"

"Yes." Artest, Mo Rigen, and Qiu Yongsi looked at Li Jinglong inexplicably together, and Artest said: "Four taels of Lihun pollen, one tael of pollen eight hundred taels of silver, four eight thirty-two, the calculation is wrong ?”

Li Jinglong was speechless for a while, and after a while, the four of them looked at each other, as if they were used to it.

"The things used by exorcists are so expensive?" Li Jinglong frowned.

"Either I'll put it on first." Mo Rigen suggested, giving Li Jinglong a step down. After all, Li Jinglong also spent a lot of money repairing the exorcism department inside and out.

"I'll pay eight hundred taels." Qiu Yongsi said with a smile.

"Forget it, I'm out." Artest replied.

Mo Zhigen said: "Everyone contributes. All the money that Artest advances can be given to him."

Li Jinglong stood up and said, "This can't be..."

"Chang Shi sits, Chang Shi sits." Qiu Yongsi laughed hurriedly, "How can I get Chang Shi to pay for it? Hey! Chang Shi doesn't care about past suspicions, and we didn't blame us for beating people indiscriminately... Hong Jun?"

Hong Jun got it right, and immediately started to pick out pearls: "Yes, yes, yes! Don't punish us for what happened that day, I will also contribute, and pay the money..."

"Hong Jun!" Everyone said in unison, with grief and indignation.

Everyone had common thoughts. Originally, Qiu Yongsi, Artai, and Mo Zhigen must have been discussing outside long ago, planning to use Lihun pollen to squeeze a few words at Li Jinglong, but Hong Jun just pointed it out. White for a while.

Hong Jun said blankly: "What did I say wrong?"

Li Jinglong really didn't want to continue this topic, so he had to raise his hand to stop, and said: "The money will be paid by the public, and then I will ask the court for money. The box will be put on hold first, and it will be divided slowly in another day. Let's just say that." Put the box full of soul-destroying pollen on the top shelf in the hall.

"What is this?" Mo Zhigen found the documents on the case.

"A serious case from Dali Temple." Li Jinglong said, "I have something to do in the afternoon."

"No way—" the three lamented again, "Going out?"

Hong Jun asked: "Is it hard to find Lihun pollen? Are you so tired?"

"There is no such thing in the West Market." Qiu Yongsi said, "A-Tai took us to the underground black market in Jubaozhuang to find it, and the big food dealer insisted on selling it for us three to dance around with him as women, and it took almost an hour. Woolen cloth!"

"But why is there grass behind you?" The carp demon said behind the three of them, "Is it just riding out of the city to play?"

The defense against the sky and the earth could not prevent Hong Jun and the carp demon from cooperating to tear down the stage. Everyone immediately laughed and changed the topic. Artest said: "Oh! Here we come! You have to solve the case and make meritorious service!"

Qiu Yongsi: "Yes, we still need to contribute to the country."

Mo Zhigen rubbed his hands and said, "Let me see, what's the shocking case? Brothers, I'll break it for you!"

Li Jinglong glanced at the three of them, took a deep breath, stopped pursuing the matter, and said, "As long as human life is not at stake, you are allowed to do it tomorrow, let me see..." He lowered his head, untied the file in his hand, flattened it, and read: "On the fifth day of September, a white curly-haired lion cat of the Da Yue clan was lost in Daningfang, Mrs. Qin's residence.

Tianbao 12th year September 23rd.

The first case of the Exorcist Division: looking for a cat.

Difficulty: Herringbone

Region: Chang'an City

Involved in the case: Yang Guozhong's sister, the right prime minister, in the residence of Mrs. Qin

Facts of the case: On the fifth night of September, Mrs. Qin's pet cat "Qing'er" was frightened according to the maid, and Kui Ye left the mansion with unknown whereabouts. During this period, the six armies including the Habayashi Army, the Shenwu Army, the Longwu Army, and the Xuanjia Army searched Chang'an, but failed for ten days.

Remuneration: The noble concubine and Mrs. Qin must be paid heavily.

Li Jinglong's face couldn't be more ugly, Qiu Yongsi hurriedly said: "Pour some water for Chang Shi, this face, don't be bad!"

"Or give Chang Shiwen some Lihun pollen that he just bought?" Hong Jun suggested.

"Stop making trouble!" Everyone hurriedly stopped Hong Jun.

Mo Zhigen poured water, Artest delivered a cup, and Hong Jun patted Li Jinglong on the back sympathetically. After a long time, Li Jinglong finally swallowed his breath. The exorcist department was established, and the first case it received was to find a pet for Yang Yuhuan's eighth sister? This is simply a huge insult!

"It's so difficult." Hong Jun said, "Chang'an is so big, how can I find it?"

"No!" Li Jinglong slammed the case file heavily, and said angrily, "Back it back! It's too humiliating!"

Everyone was helpless, as if they had expected such a result.

Early the next morning, the four of them yawned and followed Li Jinglong to Chang'an Main Street with bored faces. The shops along the street were closed.

"Chang Shi, we thought about it all night." Artest said, "There really is no spell that can find a cat."

Li Jinglong flicked his sleeves and said, "Look for it, it's idle anyway."

So the four of them split up and went to the four corners of Chang'an, east, west, north, south, and began to inquire about the whereabouts of the lion cat. It stands to reason that the Sixth Army has conducted a thorough investigation, and should have questioned many Chang'an civilians. But there is no guarantee that there will be new news these days

Hong Jun was assigned to the south of Chang'an, and it took an hour to walk there. According to the description of the case, he very much suspected that the cat might have run out of the city.

"Kong Hongjun!"

As soon as Hong Jun left the long street, he saw Mo Zhigen waving at him, signaling him to go over, and Artest and Qiu Yongsi were also there.

"Brothers will take you to play, let's go." Mo Zhigen said.

"Not working anymore?" Hong Jun asked.

"You don't really intend to find a cat for him, do you?" Artest was full of surprise.

Hong Jun said: "Look for it! I think he is a good man."

The four exorcists got together in the alley. After yesterday's incident, Hong Jun's impression of Li Jinglong had more or less changed, so he said something to the three of them. Of course, he skipped what should not be said, just It was briefly mentioned that Li Jinglong came to the Exorcist Department because he really wanted to do something for Datang.

However, he is just an ordinary person, and he is looked down upon by the court, so he can't help himself in many things.

The three of them listened with indescribably weird expressions. As they talked, Hong Jun suddenly understood—because of the exorcist, they regarded themselves as the same kind, but they did not count Li Jinglong as one of their own .

"The most painful thing in the world is to ask for something that doesn't belong to you."

After listening to Artest, he shrugged and said.

"Is that so?" Mo Zhigen thought thoughtfully, "Why didn't you make it clear?"

Maybe there is some kind of persistence and self-esteem, Hong Jun thought for a while, and said, "I'll help him look for it, and if I can't find it, let's talk about it."

The remaining three people looked at each other and nodded each other. Mo Zhigen said: "Since this is the case, then..."

Mo Zhigen spread his hands, and for Hong Jun's sake, let's help him find it this time. The four agreed to meet in Dongshi for lunch, and then left separately.
