Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 815 Dowry
what to prepare?
Lin Ji naturally knew what Lu Guangmu was referring to, but he didn't want to respond.

At least, not yet.

"Ready." Lin Ji took out two balls the size of egg yolks from his bosom, and said respectfully, "Grandpa, this is the demon pill I took yesterday, and I have the right to do it as a betrothal gift."

Lu Guangmu naturally knew very well how precious these two demon pills are!

But he didn't even look at it, as if seeing him for the first time, he stared at Lin Ji seriously.

He understands that Lin Ji understands everything, but what he doesn't understand is why Lin Ji pretends not to understand!
"You have a heart." After a long silence, Lu Guangmu spoke slowly.

Lin Ji put down the demon pill, saluted, and went out.

He wanted to meet Zhao'er, but was stopped by the old slave of the Lu family, saying that the two of them would not see each other again until the hijab was lifted.

Lin Ji had no choice but to give up.

After leaving Lu's mansion, I went shopping along the street, and randomly found an original cooking stall and sat there.

Weicheng is close to the sea, and the most distinctive snacks are the original flavors of seafood spread in the streets and alleys.

Half a pot of fresh food and a pot of water, without any seasoning, served with the unique local green potato Laobaiganer.

What did that sentence say?

right!
The most high-end ingredients often use the most simple cooking methods!
One bite of crab, one bite of wine.

Lin Ji's meal was delicious, and he heard the group of diners who were smelled of alcohol talking about the story of "Lin Tianguan fighting the three demons".

Every word you say to me is as vivid as if you are on the scene.

In fact, most of that was just what Wu Ji said yesterday.

However, Lin Ji had long noticed that in a corner far away from the crowd, there was a strong man in shabby clothes sitting sullenly, who seemed to be secretly looking at him intentionally or unintentionally.

And that person's cultivation base is not low, he is already at the peak of the five realms.

Lin Jiquan didn't know it, he still drank slowly and ate up the whole plate of shrimps and crabs, drank a pot of old wine, then got up and walked back slowly.

Sure enough, the man also got up to pay the bill and followed him all the way.

When passing by a remote alley, Lin Ji pretended to urinate and hurried in and hid.

With the sound of hurried footsteps, the man also followed.

"If you dare to move, I'll kill you!" Lin Ji stepped out and said coldly.

"No, dare not!" The man's face changed drastically, and he said anxiously, "Lord Lin, don't get me wrong! I am also an old man who supervises Tiansi. I just saw that you don't like to make public, so I didn't dare to go forward and disturb you."

Hearing what he said, Lin Ji looked it over carefully, and it was indeed somewhat familiar.

"Oh? Then who are you? Where have you seen me?"

"The little... The little one used to be He Kui, the deputy head arrester of Weicheng. Five or six years ago, he was the chief arrester of the injured. It was the little one who went to Beijing for him. I was lucky to meet the adults. At that time, the adults... the adults were still young. Yang County."

In order to convince Lin Ji even more, the man said again and again: "Master, do you still remember that the head arrester in Jingyang County was reprimanded by Mr. Zheng for having too few files?"

After mentioning this, Lin Ji suddenly remembered.

When he first went to the Supervisory Office to report on his duties, this indeed happened!
And among the few headhunters present, there was indeed this person.

It's just that we didn't talk to each other at that time, and we never saw each other again.

Qingyang County, Liangcheng...

Didn't expect so much time to pass in the blink of an eye.

Now Daqin is dead!
Lin Ji's tone slowed down a bit, and he said, "Then why are you following me?"

"Qin is dead, Tiansi is also gone, and the little one is full of depression. Fortunately, the adults have the courage to ask for a word, and there is no malice!"

He Kui saw sweat on his nervous head, and his heart beat wildly.

Compared with the anecdotes from the outside world, he knows better than anyone else what this Lin Tianguan, Mr. Lin, is doing!

Don't say that he is a mere five realms.

So what about the strong ones?

It's not like killing it!
Lin Ji believed He Kui's words for the time being, glanced up and down and said: "Although Jian Tiansi is not as good as before after the disbandment, after all, you have worked in Weicheng for many years, how come you are so down?!
Seeing that Lin Ji's pressure on him dissipated, the man's heart fell to the ground, and when he was asked about his pain, he immediately said bitterly: "Your Excellency, I don't know. They seldom care about the ghosts and ghosts among the people, and they don’t even bother to sweep the snow in front of the door, hoping that something will happen to the supervisor, but Weicheng is different!"

"Although the four great aristocratic families also have secret disagreements, once there are any ghosts and evil things, they will try their best to eradicate them without any slack, especially when Emperor Pei ascended the throne, demons and demons are everywhere, and the world is in chaos. But Weicheng has nothing to do every day, and has become Qingshui Yamen."

"My lord, let's just say that when we first met that year, other cities and counties still had files, but Weicheng... Leng has never solved a single case! However, the higher-ups may also know, but they didn't suffer punishment."

"But as the saying goes, you don't get rewarded for meritorious deeds. Since I got points in Weicheng, I haven't moved my nest. The people in the city don't take Jiantiansi seriously at all. When they are in trouble, they don't come to us. Not to mention the slightest benefit, and every New Year’s day, I have to set aside my salary to give gifts to the four great families, and let’s talk about whether I will meet the head of the family! My colleagues are all envious of my low job, but who knows What's wrong with me?"

"But who knows, that damn Daqin died as soon as he said he was dead, and the Tiansi Supervisor was disbanded on the spot, and his salary was gone! No matter how big or small, I was a deputy head arrester after all, and I can be regarded as a dignified person with official positions Son, you can't go fishing in the sea or set up a stall to sell boiled sea food, right? But my whole family depends on me to support me, I... hey! There is really no way out. Master Lin, I heard that you and the Lu family... ... Uh, I have a lot of friendship, for the sake of being an errand in the same office, can you help me find something to do?"

After hearing He Kui's words, Lin Ji had no sympathy for him!
Every gain is bound to be lost!
What he lamented was not that he was doing nothing, but that he did not reap the benefits and play prestige like other places.

But why doesn't he envy those who lost their lives and heads in order to slay demons?
Moreover, judging from the fact that he was sitting alone in a very lonely corner and no one was paying attention to him, his relationship with the people in this city is not much better!
Even if he loses his position, after all, he has lived in Weicheng for so many years, so there are still some old friends. This popularity is too close!
It can be seen from this that he looked up at the four great families on weekdays, feeling uncomfortable being oppressed, and his dryness probably spilled over on the poor people.

Now that he has fallen, he still can't save face and seek a way to survive. He knows that there is a family to support, but he only knows how to drink on the street!
Wasted a whole body of cultivation, what a waste of life!
For this kind of person, Lin Ji was really too lazy to talk to him. He was about to turn around and leave, but stopped suddenly: "You said that you have been a deputy head arrester in Weicheng for so many years?"

"Yeah?" The man didn't know why, his eyes gleamed, and he thought that Lin Ji saw that he was good at cultivation, and that he was exhausted after working as a deputy for so many years, so he hurriedly replied: "It's been 15 years! , although there is also a deputy chief arrester in Xuzhou, but the work and salary are still the treatment of a deputy chief arrester."

"Then the head is being arrested?" Lin Jiqi asked.

　A big event happened today. I didn’t go back to sweep the tomb because of the epidemic last year. This year, the tomb was overgrown with thatch, and I almost couldn’t find the land. After I found the land, I thought that the thatch was too high, so I couldn’t help lighting a fire to burn the surrounding thatch. burnt...

　　Unexpectedly, the fire could not be stopped as soon as the wind blew, and the surrounding graves also burned, and finally burned to the nearby woods, which made me anxious
　　Fortunately, after my wife and I tried our best to put it out, there was no danger in the end. The price was that the coat I used to put out the fire was burned, my wife's shoes were also burned, and I was exhausted and paralyzed!
　　Another small injury is not worth mentioning. As for the detailed process, I am afraid that a chapter is not enough to write.

　　So all veterans should take me as a warning, pay attention to fire safety when sweeping tombs in Qingming!
　　Well, keep asking for a monthly pass!
