I'm wandering in the world

Chapter 175 Taoist
The atmosphere on the scene was very lively.

Tigers are rare in themselves, and their flesh and blood are extremely precious, not to mention the body of a tiger.

Although the patrol inspector wanted to leave the body of the mountain king in Toushan City, the fact that there was a demon rampaging in Toushan City was known to several surrounding counties...

Sun Datong thought for a moment.

He slapped his thigh with his right hand and looked at Chen Qingyuan: "Master Chen, we need to hand over at least part of the body of this mountain lion, but you are the one who has done the great deed of killing it, so you have the right to decide how to deal with it, even if you can take it all away."

The officialdom is complicated.

Sun Datong seemed to be seeking advice from Chen Qingyuan, but in fact he was asking...

Chen Qingyuan also understood the meaning and said with a smile: "The inspection department and the people of Toushan City have also made great efforts. I was lucky enough to get some benefits! How about this... keep the blood, flesh and internal organs of the tiger, chop the meat into small pieces, stew it in a big pot with water, and then ask the villagers to bring their own bowls to serve, and divide it according to the number of people. If it is not enough, add water or minced meat, so that everyone can taste the taste of the tiger..."

Sun Datong asked: "This tiger is a monster after all..."

Chen Qingyuan smiled and said, "It is recorded in the ancient books of Lushan that when a monster is beaten back to its original form, its flesh and blood still retains a little spirituality, and eating it is good for the body... However, children and the elderly need to reduce the amount to prevent accidents due to inability to replenish the body..."

Sun Datong asked again: "The blood, flesh and internal organs have been taken away, and only the tiger skin and bones are left..."

Chen Qingyuan said: "Just follow your rules and arrange to hand it in."

Sun Datong heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Chen Qingyuan with some gratitude, and said, "Thank you, Taoist Chen!"

He was a local and didn't have the guts to steal Chen Qingyuan's spoils. It was just that the evildoer was at work, and the county and even Quanzhou Prefecture knew about it...

The evildoer is a tiger, and he must give something in return.

Otherwise, his position as the head of the Inspection Department will have to be replaced.

A hero who resisted the Japanese pirates?
What does this have to do with those parasites hiding in the officialdom who are doing nothing but sitting in their positions?

They simply replace disobedient subordinates with obedient dogs.

Sun Datong was not reluctant to give up his position in the Inspection Office. He was just afraid that the person who replaced him would be afraid of death and would not dare to draw his sword to fight against the Japanese pirates when they attacked...

So Chen Qingyuan was willing to share the tiger's remains.

Sun Datong's heart was filled with gratitude. He clasped his hands together, bowed, and bowed deeply!
Chen Qingyuan knew that it might not be easy for him, so he held him up with his hand and said, "Everyone who fights against the Japanese pirates should be respected..."

Sun Datong was recognized, and beneath his strong appearance, his heart was touched. His nose felt sore and he almost burst into tears!

Almost all of his brothers and sisters died at the hands of the Japanese pirates. Now there is only one nephew, Sun Ren, left. He is also a man of integrity. Wearing the leather armor left by his father and carrying a long sword, he serves as a soldier patrolling the city walls and vows to kill the Japanese pirates.

Just then, there was some commotion among the crowd.

I saw a few people wearing inspection uniforms coming back from outside, followed by a Taoist priest.

Sun Datong was stunned, but his expression quickly returned to normal. He lowered his voice and said to Chen Qingyuan, "The one walking in front, with high cheekbones and thin cheeks, is the second in command of our Toushan City Inspection Office."

Chen Qingyuan was puzzled: "Second in command? Doesn't the Inspection Department only have one supervisor, and that's the inspector?"

The patrol inspection office was not as well-staffed as the police stations of later generations, and it only existed in relatively dangerous and densely populated places...

Normally, the entire inspection office only had inspectors and patrol soldiers, and at most a civilian staff to help write and record. But it was obvious that the second-in-command mentioned by Sun Datong did not look like someone who could do civilian work.

Sun Datong smiled bitterly and said, "The inspector is of the ninth rank, which can barely be considered an official. Normally, there is only one inspector, but our inspection department in Toushan City has two inspectors. I am the chief inspector and he is the deputy inspector. We are of the same rank. It's very interesting, isn't it? When I first heard about this arrangement, I also thought it was... very interesting.

Later I found out that this uncle of Inspector Niu Guihai was an official in Quanzhou Prefecture and seemed to be of high rank.

Niu Guihai was arranged to come here because Toushan City was often attacked by Japanese pirates. He only needed to register here. If they defeated the pirates, Niu Guihai would have a share of the credit. If they lost, it would be my responsibility as the chief inspector..."

Chen Qingyuan felt that Sun Datong's life was really not easy.

Sun Datong continued, "I am not a capable person. I have never dared to think of going to the battlefield to become a general! I just want to stay in my hometown for a long time and protect everyone in Toushan City. Merit doesn't matter! But Niu Guihai is an idiot who likes to form cliques and hold power, and he always goes against me!

Once when Japanese pirates attacked, he bypassed me and took the initiative to command the soldiers to fight. We won the battle, but at a heavy price...

More than 1,100 people tried to stop 100 Japanese pirates from landing, and more than 200 of them died!
My nephew Sun Ren’s father…died in this incident!”

He was a little emotional.

Chen Qingyuan also fell silent.

More than 1,100 people, in the Warring States Period of an island country, it was considered a war that would destroy a nation. Using more than 1,100 people against more than 100 people, more than 200 people died...

No wonder Sun Datong collapsed.

"Why are you all making noise here in the middle of the night? Shut up! Otherwise you'll be caught and imprisoned in the inspection office!"

Niu Guihai walked in the front, his triangular eyes scanning the people present, his eyes showing contempt, he snorted coldly and said: "They are all a bunch of unruly people. If I didn't want to get promoted and gain credit, why would I go to so much trouble to go to Quanzhou Prefecture to ask an expert to come and exorcise the demons..."

His eyes fell on Sun Datong and he chuckled, "Inspector Sun, what are you trying to do with such a big show?"

Sun Datong glanced at the red-robed Taoist priest following behind Niu Guihai, and said with a fake smile: "Niu Guihai, the evildoer from Toushan City has just been dealt with by a master, and the body is here!"

Niu Guihai was startled and saw a door panel next to him with a tiger's corpse on it.

The monster is a tiger?

This huge body is really a bit scary. If you get closer, even if you die, you can still feel the pressure of this beast!

The Taoist priest standing behind Niu Guihai saw such a large tiger corpse, and his eyes twitched violently, revealing a look of relief...

"This tiger...why is it missing its right paw? And where's its head?"

Niu Guihai's face darkened. His eyes swept past Sun Datong and then fell on Chen Qingyuan: "Did you subdue the tiger? Tell me! Why did you swallow the tiger's head and claws? And why is the fur so bumpy? Is it still valuable? How can we hand it over to the higher-ups..."

Young Master Zhang couldn't help it.

He clenched his fists and was about to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Chen Qingyuan!
Niu Guihai saw Chen Qingyuan's actions and thought that he was afraid, so he sneered: "It's no use being afraid. Now we have caught a thief who stole the tiger's head and claws, and also damaged the tiger's skin! If you just plead guilty, I will be magnanimous and consider giving you a lighter sentence... woo... yue..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

Chen Qingyuan thrust the muzzle of a Black Star pistol into Niu Guihai's mouth and said with a smile, "I like to hear this way of speaking. Say more."
