Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 72: Face it up
Wei Wushuang's face suddenly stunned. He looked at Shangguan Cai and Xia Fan, not knowing what to say.
"No," At this point, Xia Fan has nothing to hide. "I have thought about this question. Even if the Privy Council does not know the specific situation, he will be able to guess a general idea."
The formation of evil spirits is related to strong qi. Since qi is the will of living beings, there are a large number of abnormal deaths in Gaoshan County, which is an obvious inference. Even he knew this. The Privy Council could not be unaware of it. In fact, when he was engaged in a dialogue with the command, he already felt that the other party was trying to lead the topic to other aspects, but he did not have any evidence at that time. There was no real certainty, so he didn't refute it on the spot.
After all, there is no right to speak without investigation.
my fellow villagers were surprised, "Then why did the Privy Council ignore this? Even if you can't intervene in government affairs, it's still feasible to tell the prefecture and herdsmen to let them investigate?"
"I think... I'm afraid they don't want to ban evil creatures."
"Huh," Shangguan Cai chuckled, "So you noticed it too."
"What, what do you mean?" Wei Wushuang asked in confusion.
"Think about what the judge said." Xia Fan sighed, "That's the answer."
——"Civilian promotion depends on political achievements, what do we rely on? Isn't it the credit of these demons and evils?"
"If the evil in a place is swept away, wouldn't the alchemist just sit in the mansion and waste time?"
"A good day is when there is evil!"
He didn't take it to heart at first. The alchemist liked the meritorious deeds, just as the sergeant favored the military merits, there was nothing wrong with his mentality. But the deeper the investigation, the stronger the uneasy sign in his heart, and the Privy Council is afraid that the bottom line has already been crossed.
The reason for the upper class to sit and ignore is precisely this feat-it can not only bring promotion, but also maintain the influence of the Privy Council.
"No way..." The only thing left among the fellow villagers was murmur.
Xia Fan thinks deeper.
He still remembers the cause of death mentioned by the old man of the Zhou family when he became the magistrate.
was entangled in something unclean... and finally died of illness.
For example, the ghost he had encountered.
If the processor is professional enough, this kind of invisible evil can completely deplete a person's vitality without knowing it.
"It's okay to say that if you offend the prefect, if you offend the Privy Council, I'm afraid you will have a very miserable life in the second half of your life. You don't want to live the life of the former turbulent and displaced, right?" Shangguan Cai said frankly, "Only It’s too late to stop now-the Privy Council currently doesn’t know about this, and for Hu Zhixian, it’s just two subordinates who have died. If you don’t go to him, he will certainly not provoke you in reverse. In short, it’s hard for me. I just became an alchemist, and I don’t want to give up this great future, so...I quit."
"I understand." Xia Fan nodded.
"You don't blame me?"
"I understand you. If I haven't seen something else, I might make the same choice as you."
Shangguan Cai's pupils shrank suddenly, "Something else...what is it?"
"You said before that the world is the way, but the so-called world is created by people themselves. Everyone-including you, including me."
After speaking, Xia Fan looked at Wei Wushuang, "No matter what choice you make, I have no opinion. You have helped me a lot, thank you."
"Brother Xia..."
He turned around and walked towards the county seat without waiting for the other person to answer.
"Hey," Shangguan Cai frowned, "You don't really want to be on the wanted list of the Privy Council, do you? Once you step into the magistrate's mansion, there is no turning back!"
Xia Fan waved his hand and quickly left the two of them.
And beside a big tree by the road, he saw a familiar figure.
"Have you heard it all?"
"Yeah." Li straightened his hat and stepped to keep up, "I reminded you."
"Yes, you know earlier than me."
"But I didn't expect you to find the result."
"Without your help, it would not have gone so smoothly."
"Just know."
Xia Fan hesitated, "Are you going with me?"
"Otherwise," Li asked rhetorically.
"I'm afraid I can't stay in the Privy Council."
"You don't want to study Alchemy anymore?"
"No."
"Is that to help the people of Gaoshan County?"
"Not all... part of it is for myself."
"Yourself?"
"Well, in cliché terms, it is called inadequate thoughts and hinders practice."
"I have never heard of such a saying," Li said straightforwardly, "You can still vent your breath even if you are angry."
"Ah...actually, I can't pass my own level." Xia Fan decided to tell her frankly, "I can't regard the elimination of evil creatures as a feat of climbing upwards, and the main source of funds, especially when I know these. After the origin of the evil. So... sorry, secretly help you inquire about the whereabouts of Master in the Privy Council——"
Li interrupted, "If you can't become an alchemist, will you continue to help me rescue Master?"
"Of course."
"Then there is no need to apologize, because the basis of cooperation at the beginning is that you are willing to help me, not that you are an alchemist." At this point, the fox demon paused a little, "In addition, I must also confess. Something~IndoMTL.com~what is it?"
"Although I didn't want you to pursue it at first, but now that the situation is like this, I don't feel much upset--or rather, it's a little easier."
Xia Fan was taken aback for a moment. He couldn't help looking sideways at the fox demon. What caught her eyes were her golden eyes and the natural smile at the corners of her mouth.
"By the way, my injury is healed."
has a somewhat "beef, I have eaten" posture.
"So what?" Xia Fan didn't react for a while.
"So we can run faster." After saying that, Li grabbed Xia Fan, directly clamped him to his waist, ran two steps and jumped up!
He felt that he was flying instantly--
While carrying a person, the fox monsters increased their speed by a level with only their legs, and they no longer proceed along the road, but jumped on the roof of the room; the front of the line of sight is unobstructed, and the top of the head The stars and moonlight are pointing the direction for it.
Is this the true power of the fox demon?
Xia Fan simply let go of her hands and let her run fast with her sandwiched between her.
Although his posture is not very elegant, since no one will see it, he decides to fulfill the other party. For some reason, he felt that Li, who was running with all his strength at the moment, seemed a little different from before.
"If it fails, have you figured out where to go?" Li's voice echoed in the wind.
"Not yet." Xia Fan also replied loudly, "But the world is so big, there are always places they can't find!"
"I think so." She held Xia Fan tightly, "Get ready, we are here!"
With the help of a long run-up, the two stepped on the end of the ridge of the last house, jumped high, directly over the street and courtyard wall, and fell into the prefectural mansion from mid-air.
