Chapter 90 Winning People’s Hearts
Qian Angelica sat down again.
He said: "Junior Brother Champion, the situation in Gaoguan County has been deteriorating over the past few days since you have been in coma. Those cultists are becoming more and more rampant!"
Gu Xia: "The situation has worsened? What did the Origin Demon Cult do? The reinforcements from the Zhuxie Division have not arrived yet?"
Qian Danggui: “To put it simply, we are trapped in the county.”
Gu Xia frowned: "The followers of the Origin Demon Cult have surrounded the county? How can they be so bold!"
The Daqian court had been attacking the devil before, and the Origin Demon Cult was the key target.
For a long time, even if there were only suspected traces, they would be strictly investigated by patrols, so the origin of the Demon Cult has almost disappeared in the past hundred years.
Based on Da Qian's hostility to the Origin Sect, if the Origin Sect really went out to encircle a county, even if the situation in Hanzhou deteriorated, the imperial court would dispatch a large army to encircle and suppress it.
Qian Danggui's expression was a little complicated: "It's not that exaggerated. It would be easy for us to break out, but...
Junior brother, do you know the origin of the Demonic Cult? "
Gu Xia: "I've heard a little bit. I heard that they feed on other people's blood, and the demonic skills they practice will eventually turn them into monsters."
Qian Danggui: "The monster is called a blood demon. Not only does the backlash of magic power turn cultists into blood demons, but the origin of the demon sect also has other ways to create blood demons.
Most of the people you encountered in the village before were non-human blood demons created by the Origin Demon Cult.
Now the Origin Demon Sect has spread blood demons on the roads around Gaoguan County and out of the county.
Ordinary people cannot enter or leave the county at all, and we are prone to accidents if we go alone.
If you don't go out to report the news, it will be difficult for the state capital to detect the changes in Gaoguan County in a short period of time. "
In a world without highways, cars, and instant messaging, information travels very slowly.
It was winter again at this time. If the blood demon was allowed to block the road, a month or two would have passed by the time Xianfucheng would naturally notice something strange in Gaoguan County.
Gu Xia: "Yu Wusi's Zhu Xie Envoy is a master in the Zang Realm. With him at his command, why should we be afraid of evil spirits?
Why not organize people to break out of the blockade? Or simply let Qi County Magistrate lead the county residents to move collectively to a safe place? "
"Because it is impossible to accomplish both of the two things you mentioned. First of all, there is no need to think about collective relocation. No one among the common people, merchants, and officials will agree."
Qian Danggui: "I also agree with your idea. The cultists' intentions are unknown. We should evacuate first and make other plans.
However, Magistrate Qi was worried about his own safety and did not allow us to break out. He asked all the people from Zhuxie Division to stay and continue to protect them. "
Gu Xia: "So Yu Zhuxie agreed?"
Qian Danggui did not speak directly, but said: "In addition to monsters killing people, there have also been a large number of disappearances in the county recently.
The magistrate of Qi County believed that in the area under his jurisdiction, the evil cult was rampant and harmed the people, and even the cult used monsters to block the county.
If the court held him accountable, his cinnabar hat would be unstable, so he wanted to take the blame and make meritorious service. He also didn't want the news to leak out before the evil cult's nest in the county was eliminated.
However, Magistrate Qi was unable to deal with the cult, so he spent ten thousand taels of gold to ask Yu Wusi to help him..."
There is no need to say more at this point, because Gu Xia is tempted by the ten thousand taels of gold, not to mention Yu Wusi who doesn't do anything for no good.
Gu Xia: "Oh, this magistrate Qi is really rich! How do you say that? Three years to clear the magistrate's office, one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver. The old magistrate of these twenty years is not bad at all."
Qian Danggui: "Junior Brother Champion, how come you are still in the mood to joke? No matter how much Yu Wusi collects, he will not give it to us, but we have to do dangerous errands."
Gu Xia asked: "So what are we going to do?"
Qian Danggui: "Yu Wusi wants us to investigate and find the origin of the demon sect's lair hidden in the county.
snort! Previously, he was worried that he would be criticized by the elders if he lost too many manpower, so he wanted to shrink back.
Nowadays, the county magistrate will take the initiative to take bribes. It is true that money can make all the difference! "
"Senior brother, don't panic. The Origin Demon Sect may not be that powerful, but it's just that it's hard to guard against it. Besides, we are here to slay evil spirits."
Gu Xia was quite relaxed. In his opinion, the followers of the Origin Demon Cult and the blood demons were very good free training resources.
"Senior brother, I always prepare for the worst, and I have no sense of responsibility. The Origin Demon Cult can hurt anyone, just don't hurt me, Qian!" Qian Danggui muttered.
It seems that Gu Xia is more like a righteous man who cares about the world and kills demons.
At this time the door was opened and a person walked in.
It was Yu Wusi, the leader of the demon slaying team.
Gu Xia stood up and said, "I have seen the rain slaying the evil envoy."
Yu Wusi: "You're welcome. I heard that Gu Xia was in a coma for many days and finally woke up, so I came to visit."
Gu Xia: "Thank you Yu Zhuxie for your concern. I'm fine now."
"The evil spells are very harmful to people, so I specially bought some supplements for you."
Behind Yu Wusi, two government servants brought two trays.
On a tray were some precious medicinal materials, such as ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum.
On the other tray were more than a dozen gold ingots and two bottles of elixirs for the Xuanliu realm.
Yu Wusi: "Gu Xia, you fell into the evil spell for the sake of the Zhuxie Division and the people of Gaoguan County. I can't let you feel cold. These gold and elixirs are your compensation."
As soon as he came up, he showed concern and raised his hat.
Gu Xia was very surprised, but showed a grateful expression in cooperation.
"Lord Evil Envoy! This..."
All he had to do was kneel down on the spot and say that he was willing to do his best.
Yu Wusi: "Nothing, I won't treat any of my subordinates unfairly. I'll take my leave first, and I have to continue tracking the Origin Demon Cult."
Gu Xia immediately said: "Master Zhuxieshi, is there anything I can do to help you share your worries?"
"Not for now, you should have a good rest for a day, and then we can talk about work." Yu Wusi patted Gu Xia, showing an expression that I am optimistic about you, and then left.
As soon as he left, Qian Danggui spoke.
"Brother Guanjun, don't be fooled by him. He just needs people now, so he came to buy people's hearts! And he has received so much, but only gives you this little.
Don't forget, Yu Wusi, the greedy guy, wanted you to die before, and he will definitely arrange the most dangerous job for you tomorrow."
Gu Xia looked at the tonic and gold on the table and defended Yu Wusi: "Yu Zhuxie Envoy didn't know there were so many monsters in the village.
He is greedy for money, maybe for everyone in Zhuxie Division. After all, Zhuxie Division has very little money, and Yu Zhuxie Envoy may want to help everyone make up for it."
"This...brother...anyway, you have to think about it carefully..."
Seeing Gu Xia being bought at the speed of light, Qian Danggui didn't say much. He knew that this kind of inexperienced and simple-minded brother could be easily deceived.
At this time, good advice is likely to cause bad feelings.
Qian Danggui shook his head and left.
Gu Xia was the only one left in the room. The innocence on his face quickly disappeared, and he became calm and indifferent.
It doesn't matter who is really good to him, Qian Danggui or Yu Wusi.
He will get close to whoever can provide more benefits.
If Yu Wusi can pay real money, Gu Xia will temporarily become a subordinate who is fed cakes by his boss.
If Qian Danggui still takes care of him, Gu Xia is willing to continue to be an honest and simple champion junior brother.
