Imperial Demon Slayer Division

On the way back, Xia Puning saw Gu Yan frowning all the time.

"Brother Gu, the matter has been resolved, why do you still look worried?"

"I always feel that there is something wrong with Yang Gu Nian."

Xia Puning didn't want Gu Yan to know that he didn't feel anything was wrong, because it would make him look stupid, so he immediately changed the topic.

"Brother Gu's strength is probably not weaker than that of the heirs of those sects."

"The weaknesses of the two monsters are very obvious. Although the shadow monster is fast, I can kill it directly if I catch it. Although the monster behind is powerful, its body defense is too low. In the end, it is just a fluke. "

Gu Yan knew that there were people outside the world, and there was a world outside the world, so he didn't take it to heart to cross the border and kill two evil spirits in a row.

He cultivated the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Sutra, which was extremely powerful when he struck. It was not difficult to cross the border and kill enemies in the lower three realms, not to mention that the thunder method was already capable of restraining evil spirits. The combination of these two levels allowed Gu Yan to be able to kill two heads and eight heads in a row. Late stage monsters

After returning to the county town, the two went to the Demon Slayer Division to hand in the task.

"Brother Xia, do you want to go have a drink together? The Ten Days of Drunkenness in Yixiang Pavilion in the city is the best liquor in the Qin Dynasty. Even a good drinker can't drink a bottle."

"Okay, that's what I meant. I didn't contribute much to this mission. Brother Gu was fighting the evil alone. Xia is very ashamed. Let me buy this drink."

Xia Puning played the whole game this time. Without him protecting Zheng Yuan's family in the secret room, the evil spirits couldn't get in. He followed Gu Yan for no reason and made a feat, which made him feel very ashamed for his upright nature.

After the two of them changed into casual clothes, they walked to Yixiang Pavilion together.

Seeing the peace in the city, Xia Puning sighed.

"Brother Gu, looking at the people living and working in peace and contentment, the sacrifice of our Demon Slayer Division was not in vain."

"By the way, where is Brother Gu from?"

He turned around and looked at Gu Yan curiously.

"Desolate State Zecheng"

"Huangzhou Zecheng? The one that was destroyed by evil spirits some time ago?"

"Well, I joined the Demon Slayer Division because my family was destroyed by the demons."

Gu Yan's hand tightly grasped the demon-slaying knife on his waist, and an evil spirit was released inadvertently. The people around him trembled and hurriedly avoided Gu Yan.

Xia Puning scratched his head and said awkwardly

"I'm sorry, Brother Gu, for mentioning your sadness."

"The matter has passed. Brother Xia doesn't have to blame himself."

At this time, there was a sudden commotion among the crowd in front, and a cry came from

"Li San is bullying the little beggar again. This bastard is doing evil everywhere because his uncle is the head of the Xie family."

"That's right. I think Li San has taken a fancy to this little beggar. He is such a beast. This little beggar is still a child."

A passerby asked curiously

"Does the government not care about him?"

"Li San's brother worked as a police officer in the county government. The man who went to the government to sue him the year before last was beaten to a broken bone that night. From then on, he became even more lawless."

Gu Yan and Xia Puning, who were behind the crowd, listened to the comments of the people. Gu Yan frowned and walked forward, using his true energy to push away the people around him.

A tall and thin man in the crowd, who looked like he had been drained by alcohol and sex, was arrogantly cursing the little beggar sitting on the ground.

"Little beggar, how much did you beg for today? I advise you to think about it quickly and follow Mr. Li to eat and drink. Your old mother will die if she is not buried. Jie Jie Jie~~~"

The little beggar sat on the ground and didn't speak. He just kept crying, wiping his tears while crying. The little beggar's name is Duguling. He is a thirteen-year-old child who has taken on the important task of taking care of his seriously ill mother at a young age. Her mother She was not born until she was in her forties. Her father ran away with another woman a few years ago, leaving only mother and daughter.

Not long ago, her mother was seriously ill. As a last resort, Dugu Ling had to go to the streets to beg and save money to buy medicine to save her mother. Unfortunately, God was unfair and Dugu Ling's efforts did not save her mother's life.

Her mother died of a serious illness a few days ago, and the family's money has been spent. Now there is Li San, a bastard who is eyeing her and preventing her from begging to make money to bury her mother. The more Dugu Ling thinks about it, the more she hates it. She stands up and stops. She stopped crying, and stared at Li San like a wolf with a pair of eyes that were red from crying.

Li San was frightened by Dugu Ling's eyes, and then he became a little angry and slapped Dugu Ling in the face.

Snapped!

The little beggar stood there blankly, looking at Li San who flew to the wall, his little eyes full of doubts.

Gu Yan waved his hand and sneered.

"You are really thick-skinned. My hands hurt from the beating."

Li San ran over with one hand covering his swollen face, and pointed at Gu Yan with the other hand and cursed

"Who are you? How dare you hit me? Don't you know that Li Er, the county police chief, is my brother?"

"Haha, don't say your brother is a head catcher. Even if the King of Heaven comes here today, he won't be able to do it."

Gu Yan despises the kind of people who bully men and dominate women. He has no ability and only takes advantage of others to show his power.

Gu Yan was also born into a wealthy family, but he knew how to help the weak since he was a child, unlike those dudes on the street.

"Just wait for me. If you can, don't leave."

Li San said a harsh word and ran away as fast as he could.

"Thank you sir"

Dugu Ling came to Gu Yan and said timidly

Faced with Li San's long-term persecution just now, the little girl was holding a breath in her heart and was planning to kill Li San at all costs. Now that someone beat Li San away, the breath she was holding in her heart was released and she returned to her original state. The way it used to be

Gu Yan rubbed the little girl's head, took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed it to her.

"Go and bury mother."

Dugu Ling's experience is very similar to that of Gu Yan. Now they are all alone, but they have less hatred than Gu Yan.

"Sir...can I follow you after burying my mother?"

"Why do you want to follow me?"

"My lord is a demon slayer, right? I saw demon slayers when I was begging on the street. Their swords are the same as yours."

"What do you do with me?"

Seeing the little girl's appearance, Gu Yan became interested.

"I want to join the Demon Slayer Division and help those who are in the same situation as me."

"Then you can join the government when you grow up, and you can also protect the people."

The little girl shook her head

"Although I haven't traveled all over the nine states of Da Qin, the yamen in the relatively peaceful Chunfeng County are full of corrupt people. I think they should be the same everywhere in Da Qin.

On the other hand, the Demon Slayer Division is different. From the Zhenzhou officer to the Demon Slayer envoy, all of them are people with the world at heart and truly fight for the human race."

"You are not afraid of death?"

Gu Yan is becoming more and more satisfied with this girl

"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of living like this again."

The little girl looked at Gu Yan with firm eyes. Her eyes were very similar to those of Gu Yan when he first joined the Demon Slayer Division.

"Okay, you can follow me from now on, my name is Gu Yan"

Gu Yan stretched out his hand and wiped the dirt from the little girl's face.

"What's your name?"

The little beggar’s eyes glowed with a light called hope.

"Dugu Ling"

Gu Yan was interested in accepting her as a disciple, but at present, his cultivation level was low and he was not qualified to accept a disciple, so he put the matter on hold.

"Brother, it was that kid who beat me. He said, 'Don't say your brother is a head catcher, even if the King of Heaven comes, he will beat me up.' He didn't give you any face at all."

Li San followed a middle-aged man over with a dog-legged look.

"You're the one who commits murder on the street? Come here, take this person down, put him in jail, and interrogate him carefully."

Li Er said arrogantly to the policeman beside him.
