Liaozhai Great Sage

"I don't know, but the capital is not peaceful recently. A while ago, there was a fire in the capital, and many people died. Then the officials asked the adults to take charge of the Wutongjiao case. The adults said that there was a shortage of manpower, so they transferred some from Lord Yan, but it was not enough. , so I recruited you good hands to help." Cui Wei said truthfully.

Although he had guessed something in his heart, he would not say it indiscriminately.

"Forget it, I'll ask the scholar later." Yan Chixia said.

Chapter 724 The Capital Handling the Case

"Have you all eaten and drank enough? It's almost time to set off. Just now I sorted out the files sent by Cui Wei. There are probably no less than [-] places in the capital that need to be dealt with, and those that need to be eliminated directly There are no less than ten places, all of which are very harmful." Li Xiuyuan was wearing an official uniform at the moment.

He brought several accompanying soldiers to the backyard.

"The imperial court asked me to investigate the case of the Shangyuan Festival fire and the Wutongjiao demon. I think this is an opportunity. I will take this opportunity to do a good deed for the people in the capital. I will resign in a month, and I will take care of it at that time." Not anymore."

"My lord, I've already had my fill of wine and food, and I can serve my lord at will." Cui Wei said.

Yan Chixia smiled and said: "Scholar, you asked me to come and do things for you from thousands of miles away. What will you reward me afterwards? Even if you join the army, you will be rewarded with silver. Don't fool around with gold and silver treasures." Me, I'm not interested in that thing, how about it, last time the Western Region tribute wine, wine, how about you bring me three jars?"

As soon as they met, Yan Chixia couldn't help asking for wine.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "No, no, the wine is gone. You and Xia Houwu drank it all last time. I have nothing for myself. If Yan Chixia wants to drink, I will invite you after the matter is over. Get drunk with a fairy."

"Immortal drunk? What kind of wine is that?" Yan Chixia's eyes lit up, as if she had already begun to imagine the taste of that fine wine.

"The God of Martial God gave me only one pot. I drank a cup, but I'm not strong enough to drink, and I get drunk when I drink it. I'll take it out for you to drink at the celebration banquet later." Li Xiuyuan said.

Yan Chixia laughed loudly and said, "It's refreshing, you are a scholar with many treasures, and you always have some good things, so be careful not to be missed by thieves." As she spoke, she looked at the somewhat old Ghost King cloth bag around his waist.

If a fairy is drunk, it must be packed in the cloth bag.

"Li Chao, I heard that your master is Monk Han?" Suddenly, Li Xiuyuan looked at the strange man beside him.

"Yes, yes, my lord, I used to learn martial arts from Hanhe. The master taught me for a few years, and then traveled around the world." Li Chao said hastily.

Li Xiuyuan nodded; "I met Monk Han in Hua County before. We eliminated demons together. He is not bad. He is traveling around, accumulating merits, and practicing to become an Arhat. If we have the opportunity to meet, we should catch up on the old days."

Li Chao was a little overjoyed when he heard the words, he didn't expect the master to know this Lord Li.

"Okay, get ready, get your weapons, and set off immediately."

Without further delay, Li Xiuyuan led these top experts in the secular world out of the Yamen.

There are hundreds of people waiting in the Yamen.

They are the head catchers of the six gates, a group of soldiers under Li Xiuyuan's command, and the yamen servants.

I don't expect them to be of much use, just to bring them a strong momentum and fight for them. After all, it's easy to do things with a lot of people, and it seems too weak to rely on these few top experts.

"Where's Zuo Qianhu? He hasn't come yet." Li Xiuyuan took a glance, but didn't see Zuo Qianhu bringing someone over to help.

"Return to your lord, Zuo Qianhu sent someone to send a message. He is still on duty and cannot leave his post without authorization. When the shift changes, Zuo Qianhu said that he will come to help your lord immediately." A catcher clasped his fists.

"It's the rules of the court, so let's not wait for him, let's go." Li Xiuyuan smiled, but he didn't mind.

This is indeed the character of Zuo Qianhu, who is upright and loyal, and can be meticulous in completing the errands of the court, even if he sacrifices his life for it.

Immediately, Li Xiuyuan led Wu Xiang, Sha Jin, Li Chao, Yan Chixia, Xia Houwu, Cui Wei, a total of six masters, hundreds of people and horses, walked along the official road and along the street with great momentum .

Along the way, many people in the capital were disturbed, they pointed and talked.

"What happened in the capital today? Such a lord came out leading so many people. What is he going to do? There is also the arrest of Chief Cui from Six Doors. Could it be that someone has committed a serious crime?"

"I recognize the leading official. He is the magistrate who succeeded Fang Shengyu a few days ago. I think this is going to investigate some big case."

"Wow, that's very impressive. The official is followed by masters, even Yan Chixia, the former chief arrester, was invited, and Xia Houwu, I heard that his swordsmanship is very powerful, and Yan Chixia is a deadly enemy, she even had a sword match in a restaurant in the capital a few years ago, tsk tsk, but that battle really made my eyes addicted, it's a joy to fight between masters."

"Look, it's Li Chao. Why was he released? Wasn't he arrested last year in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice? I heard that he injured a certain yamen, and he will be locked up for three to five years."

"Sha Jin, the head of the Shunfeng Escort Bureau, is also there? He is also an incredible expert. I heard that he has the unique iron cloth shirt technique, which makes him invulnerable, and he is good at chopping a buffalo."

There are quite a few rogues in the wells of the capital city, even idlers can recognize these masters.

Especially Yan Chixia and Xia Houwu, who used to gain a great reputation in the circle of the capital, but later Yan Chixia got tired of worldly battles, practiced the method of sword fairy, and ran around to kill demons and eliminate demons. Moreover, he also killed a lot of corrupt officials, so he could not be the chief arrester for a long time. If he is not wanted, it is considered as a face of the six doors.

Now that these masters are gathered in one place, people can't help being surprised.

Of course, for some literati and scholars, they have never heard of the rumors of this master in the market, they are just curious, what exactly is the magistrate's office planning to organize so many people?

You must know that the capital has very strict regulations on the transfer of head arresters, soldiers, and government servants.

More than how many people need the order of the court, otherwise it will be regarded as gathering a crowd to make trouble, and there is suspicion of rebellion.

"stop."

A group of people walked along the street, finally turned left and right, and stopped in front of an inconspicuous house.

Li Xiuyuan looked at the file in his hand, waved his hand and said: "This is it, this is a mansion, it looks normal, but in fact there is a monster hiding in it, refining pills, entrapping children, killing people He has changed into a man and a woman, taking the opportunity to seek money, preparing to break into the house and arrest people, and surrender to avoid death. Resist and punish, who will go first in this first battle?"

After speaking, he looked back at the crowd.

Li Chao immediately came out on horseback and clasped his fists: "Don't dare to embarrass the master, I am willing to take the demon here for my lord."

"I'll give you 20 people, and the others will surround you to prevent the monster from escaping." Li Xiuyuan waved his hand.

Li Chao was eager to try it immediately. He felt that he had learned martial arts all his life, and now he could finally play a role.

Immediately, he got off his horse, counted 20 people, and strode to the gate of the mansion. He punched it down, and a hole was broken in the heavy wooden door in front of him.

Soon, there were screams, exclamations, and various sounds of grabbing people.

"Who? How dare you come to my house to make trouble?" At this moment, an old Taoist with a stern face came out of the alchemy room with a few beautiful Taoist boys.

Li Chao said: "My Majesty Li Chao, under the order of the magistrate, came to arrest the alchemy monster? Is it your old way? Hurry up and accept the surrender."

As soon as the words fell, his feet exploded like thunder, and his whole body rushed towards him like a galloping horse.

"A master who has developed vigor? It's not good." The old man's expression changed drastically.

People with this level of martial arts are strong enough to fight demons and gods if they are determined, and they dare not get close to them with their masculinity.

Not daring to be careless, the old Taoist hastily took out a Taoist talisman from his sleeve, and then muttered something. The Taoist talisman burned quickly, but before the talisman was completely burned, a gust of wind blew by and extinguished it.

The spell fails.

"No, the prefect outside is not simple. His righteous thoughts enveloped this place, and his spells are no longer effective." The old man immediately understood what was going on.

Try looking out with your third eye.

In an instant, a white light shrouded the sky, and a golden light came faintly. The two rays of light were intertwined, like a canopy, and the mountain was pressing on his mansion.
