Imperial Demon Slayer Division

After leaving this valley, Gu Yan led the demon slayer envoys all the way west, heading straight to Hansha City

At this time, in the Hansha City County Government Office, the county magistrate Deng Chuan was running around anxiously and said with an anxious look on his face.

"Why haven't the adults from the Demon Slaying Department of the county come yet? Don't they have a demon hunting board? There are so many demons outside the city. If they suddenly want to attack the city, just relying on these warriors in Hansha City The officers and soldiers can’t stop them at all.”

On his left and right sides, there were two middle-aged men standing on each side. One of them, with a long knife on his waist, an open eyebrow, and a beard all over his face, said:

"Sir, the entire Hanzhou is full of evil spirits now, and the Demon Slayer Division also needs time to operate. What's more, we are on the border of Hanzhou. How can the adults of the Demon Slayer Division get here so quickly?"

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Deng Chuan, who was already a little anxious, couldn't sit still anymore.

"Captain Chen, if the adults from the Demon Slaying Division don't come and the demons outside suddenly start attacking the city, will we still have a way to survive?"

After hearing the words of the county magistrate Deng Chuan, Chen Captou put his right hand on the long knife at his waist and said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, sir. If the evil spirits attack the city, I will lead all the officers and soldiers in the city to fight to the death!"

The man standing on the other side of Deng Chuan, with a sinister eyebrow and a white face and no beard, rolled his eyes in his eye sockets and said

"Chen Captou, you mean you can stop the evil spirits?"

Chen Captou heard this and shook his head slightly and said

"It can't be stopped, but don't worry, Master. All the officers and soldiers in Hansha City will definitely resist to the death. Before we are all dead, we will never let the evil spirits step into Hansha City."

Hearing this, the white-faced and beardless master stopped talking, while Deng Chuan, who was standing between the two of them, sighed and said

"There is no other way to do it now. Mr. Chen, I will leave the heavy responsibility of Hansha City's defense to you."

After Chen Baotou cupped his fists and saluted, he turned around and walked out of the magistrate's house, heading towards the city tower.

After Chen Captou left, Deng Chuan sat back on the front seat with a worried face and sighed deeply.

The master on the side quietly came over and whispered:

"Sir, are you worried about city defense?"

Deng Chuan heard the master's words and nodded slightly.

"The adults from the Demon Slayer Division haven't arrived yet, so the only solution for now is to pray that Mr. Chen and the others can delay a little longer."

The master picked up the teapot on the table, poured Deng Chuan a cup of tea, and said softly

"Sir, in my opinion, you don't have to worry about city defense."

Hearing the master's words, Deng Chuan suddenly became interested, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said

"Tell me, why don't I worry about city defense?"

After the master put down the teapot, he smiled slightly and said

"Because Chen Captou and the others can't hold off the evil spirit at all, not even for an hour or two."

When Deng Chuan heard what his master said, his face suddenly fell and he said angrily

"Then what did you fart?"

The master smiled, like a devil, and said in Deng Chuan's ear:

"Sir, don't you feel wronged? You were the number one scholar back then, but the imperial court didn't take you seriously. The officials sent you to the small border town here. Now that the number of demons has increased dramatically, the Demon Slayer Division has There are still no reinforcements, so it’s clear that we don’t take you seriously. Why should you still be loyal to such a court?”

After hearing the master's confusing words, Deng Chuan's face became uncertain. The master was right.

As the number one scholar at that time, without offending anyone, not only did he not enter the imperial central system to express his ambitions, but he was kicked directly to Hansha City, a small border town.

Sun Yao was imprisoned in Lingbi County for thirty years because he offended Song Kefei.

And what about him? He, Deng Chuan, has never offended anyone. He has been working hard for so many years in officialdom and has managed Hansha City in an orderly manner.

Although it is not as good as not picking up things on the road and not closing the door at night, the people still live and work in peace and contentment, and the whole city is peaceful.

The master on the side looked at Deng Chuan's increasingly gloomy expression, and felt ecstatic in his heart. If Deng Chuan didn't leave, he would have to stay in Hansha City to wait for death.

If Deng Chuan died with the city, at least he would still have a good reputation in historical records. He was just a mere master. He couldn't even leave a name. At most, he could only say, "The entire county magistrate died in this battle."

"Snapped!"

suddenly! A crisp sound sounded on the master's face, and a burning pain came from the master's face, bringing him back to reality from his fantasy.

At this moment, the face of Deng Chuan next to him was almost as gloomy as if water was dripping from his eyes.

The master was stunned by Deng Chuan's slap. He covered his burning left cheek and looked at Deng Chuan in confusion.

Deng Chuan looked at the master with disgust and said coldly

"Although I have not been promoted for so many years, I do have some complaints in my heart, but let me rebel and flee? That is absolutely impossible!"

"It is true that I am afraid of death, but the sages' books that I have read since childhood and the trust of the people in the city will definitely not allow me to flee in the face of battle!"

"Chen Captou, a reckless man, dares to climb the city and fight to the death. I am an official of the Qin Dynasty, so why would I hesitate to die?"

After hearing what Deng Chuan said, the master was a little shocked, but his eyes were full of doubts.

He didn't understand why he did it even though he knew he would die.

They are just a group of irrelevant people, why should you throw your life here for them?

Deng Chuan saw the master's doubts and incomprehension, but he didn't bother to explain to him, but said loudly

"Come here! Take this traitor out and kill him!"

As soon as Deng Chuan finished speaking, two burly policemen strode into the hall and walked up to the master. With fierce looks on their faces, they grabbed the master very roughly.

The master who had been controlled seemed to have just woken up at this moment, with a look of fear on his face, and he quickly shouted at Deng Chuan

"Sir, please spare my life. I was confused for a moment. I hope you will give me a chance. I am also willing to go to the city and fight."

After hearing what the master said, the two detectives stopped their movements and asked Deng Chuan with their eyes.

Deng Chuan slapped his palm on the table with a cold face and said loudly

"Pull it down!"

"Sir, please forgive me...Sir, please spare your life...Sir...Sir..."

puff!

In the courtyard outside the hall, there was a dull sound of meat cutting, and the crying suddenly stopped.

……

Just when Deng Chuan was sullenly thinking about ways to defeat the enemy, a crisp round of applause sounded in the lobby.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

"Yes, yes, Lord Deng is worthy of being the father-in-law of Hansha City."

After hearing this voice, Deng Chuan suddenly raised his head and saw a man in black suddenly appeared in the hall. Deng Chuan subconsciously reached into his arms and held the hidden dagger.

But after seeing the black clothes clearly, Deng Chuan quickly let go of the hand holding the dagger, stood up, bowed and said

"I am lowered to the rank of Deng Chuan, and I am here to see Mr. Gu."

Gu Yan stood in the hall with his hands behind his hands, looked at Deng Chuan with admiration, and said softly

"If the officials of the Qin Dynasty were all like Lord Deng, the people of the world would have nothing to worry about."
