Imperial Demon Slayer Division

After hearing Chen Peng's words, Gu Yan asked doubtfully

"curse?"

Within the territory of the Great Qin Empire, there has never been any mention of a curse. This is also different from the styles of the two countries. The Great Qin Empire has a vast territory, abundant talents, and the martial arts are also majestic.

A small country like the Night Kingdom is sneaky, sneaky, and ghostly, so it produces a curse like this.

Chen Peng nodded and continued

"There used to be a sect called Yuehua Sect in the Night Kingdom. They cultivated a curse that could turn people into various creatures. However, that force should have been hundreds of years ago when I was raiding the Night Kingdom with my army. It’s right to be wiped out.”

"Is it possible that there are still remnants left in the world? Or was it that some casual cultivators picked up the curse after the annihilation?"

"It is very possible that the Qin Emperor was furious. It is said that the generals who led the troops did not bother to carefully search for the spoils. After overthrowing the Night Kingdom, they hurriedly captured the Night King and returned to the imperial capital to report."

After thoroughly understanding the curse, Gu Yan cut off the formation and paced back and forth in the hall, thinking about where to start investigating.

After a while, Gu Yan raised his head and said to the deacon

"Go and get the information about the general who led the army to the Kingdom of Night."

"Yes, my lord"

After the deacon bowed, he quickly left the hall and went to the case library.

After burning the incense, the deacon returned to the main hall with a few books. After placing the information on the desk, he stepped aside and stood beside him.

Gu Yan picked up the information and began to look through it. According to the information, the general also had the same surname as Gu and his name was Gu Longcheng. After the First World War in the Ye Kingdom, he was named General Zhennan and led troops to station in Dingnan County and the Ye Kingdom all year round. the border

A hundred years after Gu Longcheng, the Gu family was suppressed by political opponents and continued to decline. To this day, no one in the Gu family is an official in the court, and the prestige left by Gu Longcheng has gradually been exhausted.

Gu Yan closed the book in front of him and looked forward with squinted eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

When the deacon on the side saw the look in Gu Yan's eyes, he knew that his master was thinking about something seriously, so he stood aside obediently and even breathed a little softer, for fear of disturbing him.

Two days later, Lin Wu hurriedly walked into the hall, bowed to Gu Yan and said

"Sir, I took people to that small village to investigate, and found that the monster you brought back two days ago was an escort. He went to Dingnan County with the escort some time ago, and soon after he came back, he became Got this look"

After hearing Lin Wu's report, Gu Yan subconsciously thought of the declining Gu family in Dingnan County, and frowned and asked

"Did anyone send someone to check on the escort who was traveling with him? What happened to him?"

Lin Wu nodded slightly and said solemnly.

"After checking, all of them turned out to be like that without exception. Several of them were executed as monsters by the local government."

"Well, I asked Mr. Chen Peng, and he said that this is a curse from the Kingdom of Night. If a person becomes a monster for a long time, he will forget that he is a human and become a real monster. In order to prevent If something unexpected happens, you send someone to bring back the rest of the people who turned into monsters."

Lin Wu smiled slightly and said

"Sir, I have sent my brothers there, and they are probably on their way back now."

Gu Yan was very satisfied when he heard that Lin Wu had arranged everything properly. During this period, Lin Wu often temporarily led the Demon Slaying Division for him, and he had become extremely thorough in his conduct and work.

"In this case, remember to report to me when those people are brought here. Also, send someone to Dingnan County secretly to check on the Gu family."

There are relatively few people with the surname Gu who can be taken seriously by Gu Yan. There is only one Gu family in the entire Dingnan County, so Lin Wu didn't ask any more questions. After clasping his fists and saluting, he walked directly out of the palace.

A few days later, the rest of the people who had turned into monsters were brought back to the company by the demon slayer. Everyone was locked in a room alone, waiting for Gu Yan's questioning.

Gu Yan led several demon slayers to the room where the dart's head turned into a demon beast.

A demon slayer with great discernment moved a chair over and placed it behind Gu Yan

Seeing how sensible this demon slayer was, Gu Yan smiled and nodded.

The demon slayer who moved the chair saw this and stood behind Gu Yan happily.

As soon as Gu Yan sat down, another demon slayer handed the paper and pen to the demon beast.

"I know you can understand. I ask questions and you answer them. If nothing else happens, this is your only chance to transform back into a human body. Do you understand?"

The demonic beast in front of him only had the appearance of a demonic beast, but was still a human in nature. When Gu Yan said that there was a chance to change back, he was naturally very cooperative and nodded crazily.

Seeing that the monster understood what he said, Gu Yan continued

"Who entrusted your escort agency to go to Dingnan County as an escort?"

The monster picked up the slender brush with its huge claws and wrote awkwardly on the paper.

"Wang Chao"

Just these two words, the monster took a stick of incense to write.

After seeing the answer, Gu Yan continued to ask

"Who is this Wang Chao?"

The monster picked up the brush again and wrote awkwardly on the paper.

When Gu Yan saw him dawdling, he frowned and swung out a blast of energy, knocking the pen away from the monster's hand.

Gu Yan's actions startled the monster, and it shrank its neck inward, staring at Gu Yan with fear on his face. He thought that the adult suddenly changed his mind and did not want to investigate the case, and planned to kill him.

Gu Yan frowned and said

"Grind the ink for him, and dip your paws into the ink to write."

The monster obediently put its claws into the inkstone, dipped it in ink and began to write.

"Wang Chao is a petty official in Bai Yuecheng County Government"

Gu Yan stretched out his finger and pointed at the name on the paper. A demon slayer behind him saluted Gu Yan's back, then exited the room and headed towards Baiyue City under the night.

At this time, Gu Yan continued to ask

"What kind of escort are you taking this trip? Where is the destination? Who will take the escort?"

The monster’s huge claws moved across the paper again

"The escort bureau has rules. Once the escort takes over, a seal must be affixed. We only care about escorting the escort, not the goods. The destination is a mountain in Dingnan County. Wang Chao only told us the location and asked us to put the escort there when we arrived, and then left. That’s it, so we don’t know who picked up the escort.”

Gu Yan looked at the monster in front of him speechlessly, wishing he could give them a big mouth, why did he break the rules, and just accept the darts, not the goods?

What if the gift is something related to evil spirits? If you don't take a look at it, wouldn't you have to receive a letter of thanks from the nine tribes?

"You don't ask anything. Aren't you afraid of receiving something you shouldn't?"

"That's the rule"

After Gu Yan saw that the questions were almost finished, he left the room with the demon slayer and went to the next room.

Everyone should ask it, not only to find any mistakes, but also to see what new discoveries are made

After asking everyone, Gu Yan didn't find any new information, so he could only give up and wait for the information from the demon slayer who went to Baiyue City.
