Weird Cultivation, I have a five-organ temple

Chapter 211 New Job
"I came here today to talk to you about this."

Witch Officer Jiang smiled and told Shang Lu that even if he didn't ask today, he would take the initiative to bring up the matter.

Otherwise, it would not be necessary to send the witch officer from the Discipline Department in person just to examine a few little demons.

In fact, the interrogation of the Chu wizard was confidential.

But the man was captured by Shang Lu, who was the county lieutenant of Luoshui County, and many subsequent matters would require his cooperation.

Therefore, Feng Boyuan, Witch Officer Jiang and others applied to the imperial court and the Witch Academy, and received a reply yesterday, allowing them to inform Shang Lu of some of the intelligence obtained from the interrogation in order to better protect the secret realm.

After listening to what Witch Officer Jiang said, Shang Lu immediately became serious and asked the clerks in the yamen and Du Feng and others to wait outside.

After these people left the yamen, Witch Officer Jiang made another witch gesture and quickly chanted a spell: "Don't listen, don't see..."

Witch spirit arose in response to the curse and lingered in the government hall.

The clerks, Du Feng and others outside the hall naturally could not see the witchcraft aura.

They just felt that the government hall suddenly became much quieter, and although they could see Shang Lu and Jiang Wuguan in the hall, they had a strange and blurry feeling that they could not see clearly.

This was the effect of witchcraft, which prevented people outside from eavesdropping on the voices in the yamen, or seeing the shape of Shang Lu and Witch Officer Jiang's mouths when they were talking.

After making these arrangements, Jiang Wu officially told Shang Lu:

"The Chu wizard confessed everything the day after we brought his soul back. In the past few days, based on the information he provided, we also captured the other two teams that were transporting poisonous corpses."

"He confessed the next day?"

Shang Lu was a little surprised.

I thought the wizard would be tougher and more tight-lipped, but I didn't expect him to confess so quickly, even worse than the corpse drivers under his command.

Witch Officer Jiang sneered, "He is also a wizard. He knows our methods well and knows that he will not be able to withstand it. He told us everything before we even started to torture him."

Shang Lu sighed and thought to himself, is this a sign of knowing the times or just being too cowardly?
Witch Officer Jiang looked at Shang Lu and sighed, "Junior Brother Feng always said that you have great luck and are a lucky general. Now it seems that it is true. If it weren't for you this time, the secret realm would have become a dangerous place! And Luoshui County would have been devastated..."

Witch Officer Jiang told Shang Lu some of the information he had obtained during the interrogation.

It turns out that this group of Chu State spies originally intended to start from the underground veins, to transmit the evil poison through the underground veins and pollute the secret realm.

Unfortunately, this plan was discovered by Shang Lu just as it was being implemented.

So they immediately adjusted their plan. On the one hand, they created confusion and lured the witch officials to investigate and guard the earth veins, while on the other hand, they quietly changed the feng shui of several mountains and rivers in Luoshui County.

The mountains and rivers chosen by the spy just happened to form a siege on Yunhua Mountain.

After the feng shui was changed, these mountains and rivers became like sharp knives, with the blades pointing directly at Yunhua Mountain, forming a special feng shui situation.

By simply transporting the poisonous corpses to these modified mountains and rivers and detonating them, the secret realm in Yunhua Mountain can be affected through the feng shui aura, polluting it into a dangerous place.

As for the people in Luoshui County, they will also be infected by the Ba poison and turn into poisonous zombies.

"Is it really related to Feng Shui?"

Shang Lu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this.

He had suspected at the beginning whether this group of spies were using Feng Shui to cause trouble, but he didn't expect that his suspicion was correct and the matter had become so serious.

However, there was one thing that puzzled Shang Lu: "The secret agent changed the geomantic omen of the mountains and rivers, but you didn't notice or take precautions at all?"

Witch Officer Jiang said: "Brother Yuan, who was in charge of monitoring the Feng Shui of the four directions, has been removed from his post and is under investigation."

Although he spoke vaguely, Shang Lu understood it clearly.

That Yuan Tianfeng Yuan Wu official was either derelict in his duty or had problems, otherwise he would not have been arrested and investigated.

Witch Officer Jiang continued, "Our people are correcting the Feng Shui of those mountains and rivers. Your county government should also send some people to conduct regular patrols in these places."

Shang Lu raised a question: "The officers in the government office don't know Feng Shui, so even if they go on patrol, they can't tell if there is any problem."

"You don't have to worry about that." Witch Officer Jiang said, "We have applied for a batch of compasses from the Witch Academy. Once there is a problem with the Feng Shui, it will give an alarm. The patrolmen only need to bring these compasses to easily see if there are any changes in the Feng Shui." Shang Lu was no longer worried, and then asked, "By the way, did the wizard say that they have any other tricks up their sleeves?"

Witch Officer Jiang said, "He said he has no backup plan, but we cannot rule out the possibility that there are other spies and demons plotting against the secret realm. So during this period of time, you still cannot relax and must continue to strengthen patrols and inspections."

After Shang Lu received the order, Jiang Wuguan smiled and praised:

"You did a good job in publicizing your head this time. You scared away many people who were planning to enter the secret realm. Let me tell you something. The protective witch formation for the secret realm has been designed and is being constructed.

Once the witch formation is properly arranged, unless a large army attacks, no damage can be done to the secret realm, but it will cause backlash!
By that time, no evil spirits will dare to attack the secret realm. The public security of Luoshui County will also be further improved. "

Shang Lu nodded, this was indeed good news.

At the same time, Witch Officer Jiang also told him that the commendation document, together with the results of the interrogation, had been submitted to the court.

However, the higher-ups still need to verify the situation, so the rewards won’t come out too quickly.

Shang Lu was not in a hurry. With so many witch officials helping him to gain credit, he would definitely gain credit.

He was just curious about the court's reaction after learning about this.
When Jiang Wuguan heard him ask about this matter, he became furious and said angrily:

"I heard that during this period, we, together with the State of Ju, went to the State of Chu to ask for an explanation. The State of Chu first denied it, and then said that it was the wizard's personal behavior and had nothing to do with them... It is said that the officials of the Three Kingdoms' Office of Travellers argued very fiercely about this matter, and every time they argued, they were bruised and swollen."

Shang Lu was shocked.

Are you sure it was just an argument and not a fight?

He sighed sincerely: "The diplomacy of a great power is indeed magnanimous!"

"You kid, you are really weird."

Witch Officer Jiang was amused by him and pointed at him, shaking his head and laughing.

After laughing, he gave some instructions regarding deployment of defenses and patrols, then removed the witchcraft, said goodbye and left.

Shang Lu stood up and walked to the county map hanging in the yamen. After carefully examining it, he called Du Feng and went to the third shift to arrange new patrol work.

As soon as I walked into the third shift courtyard, I saw the third shift officers surrounding those monsters, pointing and whispering.

Everyone's face showed expressions of curiosity, vigilance, and alienation.

Shang Lu was not surprised by the officers' reaction.

Although during this period, because of the secret realm, the officers of Luoshui County have seen many monsters and ghosts.

But this is the first time for them to work with demons and monsters. It is normal for them to feel uncomfortable, but they will get used to it slowly.

Seeing Shang Lu coming, the officers hurriedly saluted with their hands crossed. Several squad leaders also hurriedly came to greet him and said with their hands crossed: "Sir, why are you here? If you have anything to say, just ask someone to pass it to us. Why bother coming here in person?"

"We are all family, there is no need to talk nonsense."

Shang Lu waved his hand, walked into Captain Niu's office, and asked several squad leaders to follow him in.

"There are new missions. Each of you should dispatch some personnel to patrol Yunshan, Baimagou, Kaijiang, etc."

After Shang Lu arranged the patrol duties, he instructed:
"Let's let the monsters outside join in this patrol. Bird monsters can conduct high-altitude reconnaissance and transmit information. Dog monsters are sensitive to smells, and rat monsters and snake monsters also have their own specialties. Bringing them along can not only improve the patrol effect, but also let everyone know their abilities and accept them faster."

"Your Excellency has considered everything."

Captain Niu was the first to accept the order and flatter him. Seeing this, the other squad leaders hurriedly followed.

Isn't it said that emperors like treacherous ministers? Flattery sounds pleasing to the ear.

After Shang Lu left the office, he used his eloquence to encourage those monsters.

How could the goblins have ever been so flattered and PUAed? They were so moved that they cried and swore to the heavens that they would serve the county lieutenant until their death.
