Imperial Demon Slayer Division

After bidding farewell to Su Zhaoyue, Gu Yan looked at the sky and saw that the sun was about to set, so he walked towards the Sheriff's Mansion.

Su Zhaoyue, who had already walked away, turned around and looked at him deeply.

In the Sheriff's Mansion, Nangong Shan was a little surprised to see Gu Yan. He came over an hour early and quickly asked his servants to serve Gu Yan tea.

"Master Gu, why are you here so early?"

Gu Yan picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and said calmly

"I just sent my friends away and there was nothing to do, so I came here first. Don't you welcome Mr. Nangong?"

When Nangongshan heard Gu Yan's words, he raised his head and laughed.

"Haha, why wouldn't you be welcome? I'm still waiting for Mr. Gu to show off his power and help me get rid of the owner of Fengyun Tower."

Nangongshan glanced at the sky and said to Gu Yan

"Master Gu hasn't had dinner yet, why don't we eat and chat together? Master Huangfu was worried that someone would poison me, so he gave me a cook. He is said to be one of the top ten famous chefs in the imperial capital. Would you like to try his, Master Gu?" craft"

Gu Yan ate a lot at lunch and didn't feel hungry at this time.

In fact, at his level, it would be fine if he didn't eat or drink for ten and a half days, but since Nangongshan mentioned this top ten famous chef in the imperial capital, it wouldn't hurt to try his craftsmanship

"Okay, then I'll bother Mr. Nangong."

"Hey, Mr. Gu is so polite. When Nangongshan first came to Jiangnan County, it was thanks to Mr. Gu that he lent me manpower so that I could eliminate stubborn diseases."

Nangongshan said to the servant standing aside

"Go and tell Master Zheng in the kitchen to prepare a table of sumptuous food and wine. I want to entertain distinguished guests tonight."

"Yes, my lord"

After the servant bowed, he left and went to the kitchen.

After Gu Yan and Nangong Shan chatted for a while, someone from the kitchen also sent a notification saying that the food and wine were ready.

Nangongshan stood up and smiled at Gu Yan.

"Master Gu, please"

"please"

The two of them walked out of the lobby together and walked to the dining room.

Different from the chilling atmosphere in the governor's mansion, the governor's mansion is a typical Jiangnan garden, very poetic, and the environment of the dining hall is also extremely elegant.

Gu Yan looked at the environment in the dining room and sighed.

"This Xia Kong really knows how to enjoy life. A county guard can live a more comfortable life than some princes who are not in power."

Nangongshan was also very satisfied with the decoration in the governor's mansion and said with a smile

"Haha, thanks to Mr. Gu for arresting Xia Kong, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to live in such a good governor's house."

Gu Yan waved his hand casually

"Hey, it's just my job."

"Master Gu, please take a seat."

After the two of them sat down, Gu Yan picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth, frowning slightly.

The food made by this famous chef who is famous all over the imperial capital is not as delicious as those cooked in ordinary restaurants, let alone compared with Su Zhaoyue.

Could it be that Huangfu Pavilion was worried that Nangongshan would be dazzled by the colorful world, so he randomly found a cook to fool him?

Nangongshan saw Gu Yan frowning and asked quickly

"Mr. Gu, do you think there's something wrong with this dish?"

Gu Yan shook his head slightly, but did not directly say that the food tasted ordinary.

"It's okay, it's just that my taste has always been light and I can't get used to these dishes."

Nangongshan nodded and felt relieved. He just thought that as Huangfu Ge said, someone poisoned the food for him and Gu Yan tasted it.

"Otherwise, I'll ask the cook to make another table."

Gu Yan didn't like to waste, so after taking a sip of water, he took a chopstick of other dishes and put it in his mouth.

“It doesn’t have to be like this, the food actually tastes pretty good.”

After finishing speaking, he took another sip of water, then put down his chopsticks, thinking to himself

"Where did Mr. Huangfu find such a salt prince?"

After waiting for Nangongshan to finish eating, Gu Yan asked

"Master Nangong, have you said hello to the Jiangning County Sheriff?"

Nangongshan nodded and said

"Jianning County Governor Jiang Xiyun is relatively easy to talk to. When my people arrived at the Governor's Mansion and explained their intention to him, he immediately agreed and did not care about the dispute over credit."

"Well, when will Mr. Nangong plan to take action?"

Nangongshan showed an unpredictable smile on his face and said with a smile

"Just before Mr. Gu came, I had already sent people to encircle and suppress the people from Fengyun Tower in Jiangnan County. When they come back, we will set off directly."

Gu Yan nodded and did not ask any more questions. The leader of this operation was Nangong Shan. He was only responsible for dealing with Fengyun Louzhu.

After the banquet was over and the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves, a young warrior covered in blood came in and saluted Nangong Shan.

"Sir, all the people from Fengyun Tower in Jiangnan County have been killed."

"Okay, Master Gu, it's time for us to set off."

When they arrived outside the governor's mansion, there was already a battalion of soldiers and hundreds of warriors waiting for them on the long street.

Nangong Shan is still very capable in doing things. Not long after he came to Jiangnan County, he gathered such a large number of warriors to work for him.

Nangongshan quickly got on his horse, glanced at the warriors waiting in line, and said loudly

"Let's go! Jiangning County"

At this moment, Nangong Shan is full of life-and-death aura, like a true superior.

Gu Yan glanced at him in surprise. He didn't expect that this elegant governor had such a side.

The group of people were riding military war horses, which were different from the war horses with monster blood from the Demon Slayer Division. Their speed was slightly slower in comparison.

Fortunately, there were many war horses, and the stations along the way could be replaced at any time, so it didn’t take long for the group to arrive at Jiangning County.

Fengyunlou is a killer organization, so its headquarters is not in Jiangning County, but is hidden in a mountain in the easternmost part of Jiangning County, bordering Jiangnan County.

There are two main reasons why we hide in such a high mountain and far away from the emperor.

The first reason is that the government's regulatory power here is weak and they can live a very comfortable life here.

If they enter the county town, there is no guarantee that one day the Jiangning County Governor will be unhappy or get in the eyes of the Jiangning County Demon Slayer Department, and he will kill them directly.

The second reason is the worry about seeking revenge. Yes, it is the worry about seeking revenge.

Who knows if the person to be killed in the mission on that day has a distant relative who is a strong person, or someone from the government. If he encounters someone seeking revenge, he can at least hide away, right?

Although the mountains here are high and the emperor is far away, it is not that rich, and there are not many people in a radius of hundreds of miles, but it is better than safety.

After all, we can only talk about other things if we are alive.

It's just that Fengyun Tower insisted on reaching out to Jiangnan County. It happened that the new county governor was in urgent need of making achievements. Fengyun Tower became the county governor's first official meritorious service after taking office.

As for Xia Kongyu before, it was purely because Gu Yan pulled out the carrots and cleaned up the mud. It cannot be regarded as a formal achievement.

The group of people came to the foot of a mountain. Gu Yan looked at the mountain in front of him, felt the bloody smell coming from the mountain, and said lightly

"This is where Fengyun Tower is located, right?"

Nangong Shan nodded, sniffing the smell of blood in the air, his eyes becoming colder and colder

"I don't know how many people this group of people killed. The smell of blood has spread to the outside of the mountain. Damn it."

Nangong Shan pulled out his long sword, pointed at the mountain in front of him, and shouted:

"Captain Kong, take your soldiers and surround this place. The rest of you will follow me into the mountains!"

Gu Yan squinted his eyes and looked around, then stretched out his hand to stop Nangong Shan who was about to go in.
