Becoming a God by Visualizing the Sun

Chapter 29 Night patrol!

There are countless sects and organizations in the martial arts world, but for the Demon Slaying Division, most of them are not worthy of special attention.

Small sects that generate some gray income still need to rely on the court's support and naturally obey the court's discipline.

Some major sects with particularly deep roots, such as Longhu Mountain, the ancestral home of Taoism, Jiangnan Jiangge and other major sects, although they do not pay much attention to the court, also keep to themselves.

Occasionally, they would even help the imperial court stabilize one side.

Just like the essence of the "Dream Demon" that appeared in the Black Mountain, it was the one that caused chaos in Jiangnan sixty years ago and was suppressed and driven away by the Jiangnan Sword Pavilion.

The only thing you need to pay attention to is some sects that take "unorthodox" paths.

Just like the religion of compassion.

They will do anything to achieve their goals, even colluding with demons.

"The blood essence of the six realms of demons is inherently magical. The characteristic of the 'Dream Demon' is that it can pull people into dreams and devour their essence in dreams."

Chen Tong warned:

"Although its essence and blood have been sealed in the earth veins for sixty years, and its power has dissipated a lot, it is still alluring, especially the miraculous properties it brings. Even some sects with deep roots are tempted by it.

According to the intelligence from the Demon Slaying Division, many martial arts sects are already wanting to get involved in this mess.

Even the monsters in Black Mountain have started to think about this."

Hear the words.

Qin Hao and the other two frowned slightly.

The Liansheng Sect, the Jianghu sects, and the monsters in the Black Mountain?
The pressure faced by the Demon Slaying Division is extremely great.

"There's no need for you to worry about the Yinsha corpse-raising ground. The 'Dream Demon' blood can even affect warriors who have ignited their life flames, let alone you."

"We have experts sent by Qingzhou to take charge. You only need to guard Gushan City."

"Night patrol duties begin today. If anyone is found doing evil, they will be executed without further notice. No mercy!"

When he said the last sentence, Chen Tong's face turned fierce.

In extraordinary times, it is natural to use severe punishments to deter others.

"Yes!"

Qin Hao and the other two clasped their fists in response.

Chen Tong's expression softened slightly. "The three of you should get to know each other better and look after each other during the night patrol. Go ahead."

He said and waved.

Qin Hao and the other two took their leave and left Jinglei Hall.

"Xue Renfeng." The slender demon slayer, always wearing a warm smile, introduced himself. "It is my honor to be a colleague of such a martial arts genius."

"Wang Zhen!" Another stern demon slayer uttered two words in a muffled voice and said no more.

One is smooth and talkative, the other is taciturn.

This was Qin Hao's first impression of the two of them.

"The area that my Jinglei Hall is guarding is in the outer city. It's quite far from the Demon Slaying Division's office. It takes two hours to walk there. Let's set off now and we can talk on the way."

Xue Renfeng took the lead and chatted casually along the way:
"Although what the boss said just now was very serious, the real dispute is in Black Mountain. It has little to do with us, so you don't have to worry too much."

"The name of the Demon Slaying Division is still very useful. If any sect in the martial arts world wants to cause trouble, they must first consider their own strengths and weaknesses."

"It's better to be safe than sorry. There are many evil sects like the Liansheng Sect in the world." Wang Zhen said in a heavy voice.

Xue Renfeng shrugged and turned his gaze to Qin Hao, "If you really encounter the evil cult, I will teach you a trick..."

Qin Hao stared at him sincerely.

Xue Renfeng smiled, winked, and uttered one word: "Run!"

Qin Hao:......

Wang Zhen frowned and scolded, "Don't teach the newcomers bad things."

Xue Renfeng didn't care at all and said sincerely, "How can it be called bad teaching? Safety first!"

"If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. I joined the Demon Slayer Division just to get a job as an official, save some money, buy a small courtyard in the inner city, and marry a few wives and concubines. I didn't join to be a savior."

Wang Zhen seemed to have long been accustomed to his Buddhist attitude. He just rolled his eyes and was too lazy to argue.

Qin Hao just smiled and didn't comment.

The three of them chatted casually along the way until the sun set, finally reaching the outer city. As the night grew cooler, the blossoms fell to the ground, turning to frost.

Compared to the silence of the inner city at night, the outer city is a mixed crowd with chaotic order, with all kinds of people living there. Although there is no curfew, it is a bit noisy.

The team consisting of Qin Hao, Xue Renfeng and Wang Zhen, dressed in black tights, short cloaks, with the copper heart-protecting mirror of the Demon-Slaying Bureau hanging on their chests and swords hanging from their waists, walked on the streets of the outer city.

When the vendors, common people and beggars around saw it, they all retreated away.

In the eyes of hundreds of officials and martial arts sects, the Demon Slaying Division is a fierce tiger, not to mention ordinary people.

"This outer city is very peaceful today, nothing is happening."

Xue Renfeng wandered around and didn't encounter any martial arts sects, let alone fights.

"The news has just leaked, don't take it lightly."

"Martial artists in the Jianghu are full of pride and it's common for them to break the law with force. If the Liansheng Cult infiltrates again, I'm afraid there will be another tragedy like the refugee camp."

"Then we'll lose our heads too!"

Wang Zhen looked serious.

Xue Renfeng did not refute this.

……

Three days of night patrol passed like this.

Apart from catching two thieves, they didn't find anything unusual.

According to Xue Renfeng, the deeds of these two little thieves were not even worthy of a merit. They were too lazy to bring them back to the Demon Slaying Division and just handed them over to the officers.

midnight.

Qin Hao stood on a roof, looking at the outer city in the night.

"It looks like today is just another ordinary day."

Xue Renfeng got a handful of peanuts from somewhere and chewed them, saying casually.

Over the past three days, Qin Hao has become familiar with the two of them.

He glanced around and said lightly:

"Calmness doesn't mean anything good."

Xue Renfeng asked without tilting his head, "What do you mean?"

Qin Hao said truthfully: "I heard Captain Zhang say that if you want to go deep into the Yinsha corpse-raising area, you need to borrow Yinsha items."

"The Liansheng Cult has caused so many murders, which means it is breeding evil spirits and blood demons."

"Tell me, if other martial arts sects want to get involved in this mess, will they follow suit?"

"By then, I'm afraid there will be a bloody storm in Lonely Mountain City, and even we will be affected..."

"..."

Xue Renfeng stopped chewing peanuts and stared at him in silence. After a moment, he managed to utter, "Why didn't you tell me that before?"

Wang Zhen also glanced sideways, frowning.

……

It seemed to be in line with Qin Hao's words.

In a corner of the outer city, a red light suddenly appeared, lasted for a few seconds, and then dissipated.

"Qiang!"

Xue Renfeng and Wang Zhen drew their swords at the same time in perfect harmony.

"what happened?"

Qin Hao asked.

Xue Renfeng glared at him resentfully: "Brother Qin, you really have a bad mouth!"

Wang Zhen explained in a serious tone, "This is a signal from the Demon Slayer Division. The red light is a warning to us. It's usually used when hunting down important criminals or dealing with demons and evil spirits."

"A suspicious person appeared in the outer city and was encountered by demon slayers from other halls, but unfortunately they failed to catch him and he escaped..."

"Look at the distance, it's not far from us!"
