Dafeng's Night Squad

70 Xu Qi ‘an, I’m going to the Imperial Academy to avenge my humiliation (1)

He could actually predict the position of the monster after it entered the water ... And it accurately shot through the brain ... His keen insight and judgment were simply terrifying ... As a woman, Lu Qing was the head constable of the government office and she was able to suppress all the heroes. She was proud of herself.

However, at this moment, she was completely convinced by Xu Qi ‘an’s divine skill and admitted defeat.

not only was he strong, but he was also humble and low-key, much better than those men who looked down on women.

Whoosh ... If it wasn’t for the fact that the monster was injured and poisoned, and there was a layer of water between them, I might not have been able to hit it with one arrow ... Xu Qi ‘an put away the military crossbow, feeling a little regretful. This crossbow could only be shot three times, and its durability was too poor.

After three shots, it would become an ordinary military crossbow.

It was supposed to be used to save his life, but it was a pity to use it against demons.

Lu Qing followed his gaze and also noticed the ordinary-looking military crossbow. When he saw it, he was immediately shocked.

The military crossbow was engraved with complicated and mysterious formation patterns. When he thought of the Qi movement when the arrow was shot out, it was not difficult to guess that it was a magic weapon.

The gong was the only magic tool for the night watchman ... This was his private property? When he said that he could invite a sorcerer from the Directorate of Celestials, he was not bragging ... Lu Qing’s impression of this man changed again, and his favorability increased.

Xu Qi ‘an turned sideways to stop her from looking at her baby. He smiled and said, ”

“If we don’t fish it up, it will be flushed away. What a great contribution.”

Lu Qing pursed his lips and chuckled reservedly as he nodded.

The two of them entered the river together and dragged the monster’s body ashore.

At this moment, song tingfeng supported Zhu guangxiao and walked out of the forest unsteadily.

“You killed it?” Song tingfeng couldn’t hide his smile, as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden.

The reticent Zhu guangxiao let out a long breath.

“How are you?” Xu Qi ‘an was concerned about Zhu guangxiao’s injury.

it’s nothing, ” the man with the sealed gourd shook his head. I just broke two ribs.

The four of them rested by the riverbank for a while, and the two constables in the spirit refinement realm led the chief down the mountain.

When the chief saw the monster’s corpse, he was both angry and afraid. He carefully stepped forward and gave it a kick, then fled with an agile posture that a bad old man should not have.

After waiting for a few seconds and seeing that there was no response, he was relieved. He rushed over and punched and kicked, unable to rage.

After venting his anger, the village chief knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Qi ‘an and the others.

Xu Qi ‘an waved his hand. let me ask you. When was the cave in the South mined? ”

The chief Officer thought for a moment. that’s a kiln left behind in the past. There’s not much limestone in the South, and the road is difficult to walk on. It was abandoned many years ago. This old man, I wonder when it was mined to this extent.”

“Did people go there often in the past?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.

“It doesn’t cut off human traces,” the chief said.

‘Can’t you just say that someone leaves occasionally? why are you arguing with me ...’ “You should go back first and wait for the official to summon you,” Xu Qi ‘an said.

The old man had been kicked by Zhu guangxiao and was slightly injured. Xu Qi ‘an saw that he had been holding his waist.

Lu Qing had no objection to Xu Qi ‘an’s way of handling things. He immediately asked a colleague to send the chief back.

The rest of the people began to meditate to recover their strength and replenish their water and food.

Fifteen minutes later, the three horses dragged the monster’s corpse and slowly walked on the official road.

On the way, Lu Qing vividly described Xu Qi ‘an’s godly operation, and his words were filled with admiration.

Song tingfeng approached Xu Qi ‘an on his horse and said in a low voice, “”She seems to have a good impression of you,”

“What do you want to say?” Xu Qi ‘an replied in a soft voice.

“Constable Lu is quite famous in the six Fan School in the capital, and he’s still unmarried,” song tingfeng said. Every man desires to be a loner on a certain path, don’t you think so?”

In this era, they were considered old leftover women ... “Work hard,” Xu Qi ‘an smiled.

Song tingfeng squinted his eyes, sighed and shook his head, “”A person like me is only suitable for the Imperial Academy.”

“Even if the tree-lined path you’re looking forward to is covered in frost every morning and dusk?” Xu Qi ‘an laughed.

Zhu guangxiao frowned, not understanding what his two colleagues were talking about.

“By the way, what was that move you used just now?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.

“Howling wind swordsmanship.” Song tingfeng said.

Swordsmanship ... The knife technique that Constable Lu had used in the battle was also a unique skill ... Wait, sword technique?

Xu Qian stared at the knife on song tingfeng’s waist.

“Who said that a saber can’t be used with a sword?” song tingfeng shrugged.

That’s right, that’s right, who said that one couldn’t kill someone without a spearhead? Xu Qian cursed in his heart.

As they talked and laughed, they saw a group of commoners coming from the road and gathering toward the official road.

The one leading them was the chief Officer, as well as the refined bailiff who had sent him back.

“They insisted on coming over to thank us.” The constable shook his head helplessly.

The chief held a basket of eggs in his hand and held it high in front of Xu Qi ‘an. these are all the eggs that our village has gathered. Sir, please accept them.

In the past six months, we really couldn’t live happily anymore. If it wasn’t for the several Daren helping us to eradicate the evildoers, to say that we are lawless and can’t pay the taxes, we could only escape and become refugees.”

Xu Qi ‘an looked at the chief’s nervous eyes and swept his gaze over the sallow and emaciated faces of the gray households.

“Alright!” He took the basket of eggs with a smile and hung it on the saddle.

The surrounding people smiled. Only now did they dare to talk loudly, pointing at the monster’s body and cursing.

...

If I insist on not doing it, I will tell them loudly, “He did not take a single needle or thread from the commoners!

They would probably be frightened.

Xu Qi ‘an sighed.

......

After returning to the capital, the monster’s body was collected by the bailiffs waiting outside the city. They pulled the cart, covered it with a white cloth, and cleaned up the traces before entering the city.

the saltpeter mine is not a small matter. I have to report it. Song tingfeng cracked an egg and swallowed the liquid.

Parasite warning ... Xu Qi ‘an nodded.

When they returned to the Yamen, the three of them did not have time to write a report. They went straight to the spring breeze Hall and told Li Yuchun what had happened.

Brother spring’s face turned solemn after hearing this.

“Well done, Xu Qi ‘an. You’ve done a great job.” Li Yuchun walked up to the three of them and helped them tidy up their clothes.

He returned to his seat and muttered, “”What do you guys think?”

...

The three gongs looked at each other. Song tingfeng said, ”

according to Xu ningyan’s analysis, the demons were consciously driving out the grey households. After our investigation, we found a saltpeter mine in the mountains ... This is definitely not a coincidence.”

“Do you have a more concrete and powerful analysis result?” Li Yuchun retorted.

Song tingfeng spread his hands. boss, I’m good at killing people, but handling cases ...

It was just average.

The three of them looked at Xu Qi ‘an at the same time. Li Yuchun’s eyes were filled with anticipation.”What do you think, ningyan?”

The three of them had experienced Xu Qi ‘an’s ability to analyze cases.

Although he was just a newbie who had just stepped into the Qi refining stage, he always felt an inexplicable sense of security with him around.

People would subconsciously rely on the strong in a field they were not good at.

Xu Qi ‘an thought for a moment and said, ” then let me add something. I’m now sure that the reason why the demons chased away the gray households in the surrounding area is to monopolize the saltpeter mine.

“At first, I thought that it might have chosen to lay eggs in the Yellow Mountain area and was on its way back to the capital. I found out that it was a male.

“There’s just one question that I can’t figure out. Why would the demons target saltpeter mines? Other than medicine, this thing can also be used to make gunpowder.”

Of course, saltpeter had other uses, but Xu Qi ‘an felt that the generation gap was too deep, so he might as well not say it.

He glanced at Li Yuchun subconsciously and was surprised to find that the other party was stunned. He stood there stiffly, as if he had figured something out.

“It’s the demon race, it’s the demon race ...” He muttered.

Li Yuchun didn’t explain. He spread out the paper and picked up his brush to write.

.....

Song tingfeng brought Xu Qi ‘an to the writing room to fill out the ” injury ” document.

“After we finish this, we can rest for two days. We don’t have to work tomorrow.” “You have to learn how to seek benefits for yourself,” song tingfeng said.

This was the legendary work injury, no, paid leave ... Xu Qi ‘an deeply agreed with his colleague’s wit.

It was already dusk when he left the study room. Xu Qi ‘an planned to go home and rest.

wait! song tingfeng called out to him, ” didn’t we agree to go to the academy tonight? ”

Xu Qi ‘an was stunned. He immediately looked at Zhu guangxiao, who was beside song tingfeng, and asked in surprise, ”

“How are your injuries?”

“The girls from the Academy of Public Relations know how to serve people,” Zhu guangxiao said in a deep voice.

.... Did this mean that they would move by themselves? Xu Qi ‘an cupped his hands in salute.

Indeed, how could he give up the pleasant social interaction between colleagues for a small injury like a fracture?

It didn’t matter if he didn’t go home. Second uncle knew that the night watchmen had to be on night duty. As for Auntie, well, she obviously doesn’t care if I go home or not. She only groans at me all day.

Xu Qi ‘an, who was not going home that night, had to have a social gathering with two colleagues in line with the atmosphere of the great Minister.

Destination: Imperial Academy Division!

He had experienced many similar social events in his previous life, but the form had changed from a dinner to a brothel.

In Da Feng, or rather in this era, brothels were the first choice for social activities.

The night watchman’s waist token allowed the three of them to ignore the curfew in the inner city. When they met their fellow night watchmen, they turned a blind eye after being routinely questioned.

.....

The three of them walked through the alley of the Academy’s workshop. Song tingfeng, whose eyes would narrow when he smiled, said, “”In the future, when you patrol at night and meet colleagues near the Imperial Academy, you can turn a blind eye, but if you meet them in other areas, it’s best not to relax. You can’t guarantee what their purpose is for going out in the middle of the night.”

“I’ve once heard an old senior mention an example. There was once a night watchman who had a grudge with someone. He sneaked into someone’s house at night and exterminated the entire family. They couldn’t find anything after the incident. It took a lot of effort to lock onto the murderer, who was also a night watchman.

“We’ll talk about the details during the Tea Party.”

Xu Qi ‘an smiled and nodded.

The inside story of the industry was a very valuable experience. If you meet a jealous colleague who likes to scheme against you, the other party might not be willing to tell you.

“By the way, which courtyard are we going to?” Zhu guangxiao, who was a man of few words, spoke.

“Yingmei Pavilion.”

“I’ll just randomly pick one.”

There were two answers. The first one came from Xu Qi ‘an, and the second one was from song tingfeng.

Zhu guangxiao and song tingfeng looked at Xu Qi ‘an together. Their eyes seemed to be saying:What are you thinking?

Song tingfeng smiled and patted his new colleague’s shoulder, “”Miss fuxiang’s tea stall costs ten taels of silver, and she rarely accompanies guests. Usually, there will only be tea stall customers for a few days, and no curtain guests. This is a brilliant method ...”

‘It’s hunger marketing, I know ...’ Xu Qi ‘an remembered that the two of them didn’t know that he had set Zhou Li up. It was naturally impossible to publicize such an inside story. She did not know that he had once slept with the floating fragrance courtesan.

It was just sleeping.

“Lady floating fragrance won’t be interested in us,” Zhu guangxiao reminded.

He didn’t say much, but what he said was either pertinent or kind.

His two colleagues didn’t want to waste money at the yingmei Pavilion. Xu Qi ‘an thought for a while and said, “”Just take it as an eye-opening trip. I’ll pay for the tea gathering.”

As a newcomer, treating the company’s seniors to seafood was a common means of social interaction.

Song tingfeng and Zhu guangxiao smiled. No one would refuse a kind treat.

Not long after, they arrived at the entrance of yingmei’s small pavilion.

Xu Qi ‘an looked at the courtyard and thought,”I’m here to avenge my humiliation.”
