Night Watchman: Linked to the Legend of Sword and Fairy game, strongly promoting Huaiqing.

He instructed the maid, "Prepare some breakfast for the lady and bring it to her when she wakes up."

“Yes, sir,” the maid replied.

Li Xuan nodded and left the room.

Half an hour later.

He returned to Haoqi Tower.

Upon entering the Nangong Hall, they encountered Nangong Qianrou, who was walking out.

Nangong Qianrou greeted him, "Li Xuan, you're here."

Li Xuan replied, "I just arrived. Are you going out?"

Nangong Qianrou nodded slightly and said, "Go to Liu Family Village to handle the follow-up matters."

The incident in Liujiazhuang was discovered by Nangong Qianrou, and the credit is attributed to her.

Therefore, she needs to handle a series of follow-up matters and clean up the remaining mess.

For example, they arranged for the interrogation of hundreds of trafficked people and the interrogation of the survivors, as well as the investigation of Pingyuanbo and his mastermind.

After saying that, she frowned and added, "By the way, you don't need to patrol here today."

"Why?" Li Xuan asked, puzzled.

Nangong Qianrou replied, "Last night, there were quite a few murders in our jurisdiction in the capital. This morning, all the silver gongs went out to investigate."

"In addition, we also need to investigate the Yazi organization."

"If you leave again, we will be severely understaffed."

Each of the Golden Gong's subordinates has a certain number of Silver Gongs.

Last night, several murders occurred within Nangong Qianrou's jurisdiction, causing serious consequences.

Therefore, all the silver-gong-wielding men under her command were reassigned.

There are also some others who are currently handling the follow-up matters in Liujiazhuang.

Now, of Nangong Qianrou's Silver Gong, only Li Xuan remains at headquarters.

If Li Xuan goes out and something else happens, there won't be enough people to handle it.

Upon hearing this, Li Xuan frowned: "Multiple murders?"

Nangong Qianrou responded: "Yes, the situation is dire, so we need manpower."

Li Xuan didn't think much of it and said, "Okay, I understand."

Nangong Qianrou nodded, turned around and quickly left.

Li Xuan then returned to his office.

We began processing some accumulated case files.

About half an hour later.

"Tap Tap!"

At this time, footsteps were heard outside.

A servant with a gong came in and said, "Sir, something has happened."

Li Xuan put down the dossier in his hand and asked, "What happened?"

The subordinate replied, "We just received intelligence from the mines in Taikang County that another powerful monster has appeared and killed several villagers."

Upon hearing this, Li Xuan frowned.

The mine in Taikang County was the remote suburb where he and Chu Caiwei had previously gone to deal with the leader monster.

The mine was used to extract large quantities of saltpeter.

He knew that the demons were driving away the gray households in Taikang County to mine saltpeter from Dahuangshan Mountain to make gunpowder.

The purpose was to transport gunpowder to the shore of Sangbo Lake, ignite it with paper figures, destroy the Yongzhen Mountain and River Temple, and release the severed arm of the deity sealed at the bottom of the lake.

"Could it be that there are still demonic creatures remaining among the demon race?"

"Let's go and check it out, then we'll know."

Li Xuan stood up.

He then instructed, "Arrange for a few men to accompany me to the mine in Taikang County."

"Yes, sir!" The gong-wielding subordinate quickly went to make the arrangements.

After a while.

Li Xuan and his four men rode away from Haoqi Tower.

Not long after Li Xuan left.

"Da da da!"

Zhu Yang slowly emerged from a secluded spot.

He watched Li Xuan's departing figure, his eyes filled with a chilling coldness, his face contorted in a ferocious expression.

"Li Xuan!"

"Your death has come!"

"Unfortunately, I cannot do it myself, nor can I see it with my own eyes."

Although he desperately wanted to kill Li Xuan with his own hands to vent his resentment.

But he was the night watchman, and his every move was being watched.

Therefore, we can only let Zhang Yi's side take action.

···········

along the way.

Li Xuan and his four men rode at full speed.

An hour later.

The five people arrived at their destination, which was not far away.

Because the roads ahead were remote and rugged, the horses could not be ridden and had to stop.

Li Xuan instructed, "Tie up the horses and proceed on foot."

"Yes, sir." Several men immediately went to settle the horses.

It was settled quickly.

Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

The group walked towards the place where the monster had appeared.

after a little while.

The group arrived at a village.

One of the gong-wielding men brought over several villagers to inquire about the matter.

The villagers replied, "At dawn, a monster rushed out of the mountains, destroyed several houses, killed several villagers, and then left."

Li Xuan asked, "Where did they escape to?"

The villagers responded, "They went to the mine in Dashan."

"Another mine?" Li Xuan muttered.

But after a moment's thought, it seems normal.

After all, that area is the only place in the vicinity with mountains and mines where one can hide.

"Let's go to the mine and kill the monsters."

Li Xuan waved his hand and left with his men.

Three quarters of an hour later.

The group of five arrived not far from the mine.

At a glance, traces of the demon were immediately spotted.

"My lord, there are signs of a demon!"

"There's also the aura of a demon."

"It seems the villagers were right; the monster is indeed hiding in the mine."

"The inside of this mine has dozens of densely packed passages. If a monster is hiding inside, it will be quite difficult to find."

Several night watchmen spoke up.

But Li Xuan frowned.

Especially after seeing the obvious traces at the scene, he felt that something was wrong.

This monster is far too unscrupulous.
