I became the demon of the female devil

Chapter 101: Monster Hunting! Captain Lin warms himself up! (Two in One)

"You cut it?"

The blue-robed priest frowned and looked at Chen Mo. "You are young, but you are quite arrogant. Do you know what a self-level demon race is?"

Except for those wandering monsters, most monster tribes are entrenched in the northern wilderness, which is like a country among monsters.

The hierarchy in the wilderness is extremely strict. Above the ordinary demons and evil spirits, there is a group of more powerful beings, named after the ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches.

Not only are they powerful, they also possess various strange abilities.

The Demon Suppression Division had dealt with a G-level demon before. The opponent's strength had reached the fourth level and was extremely difficult to deal with. Even five third-level priests were dispatched, but they were unable to stop it.

How powerful would a monster of this level be?
At least it is at the peak of the fourth level!

The blue-robed priest frowned and said, "You haven't answered me yet. Which department are you from? Wait, the clothes you are wearing... are you from the Tianlin Guard? Who let you in?"

"Cough cough."

At this time, Li Siya walked to Chen Mo, cleared his throat, and said, "I believe everyone has heard of this name. He is Chen Mo from the Dinghuo Division of the Tianlin Guard, Master Chen."

? !
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall fell into deathly silence.

Everyone stared at Chen Mo blankly, their eyes gradually changing from blank to fiery, as if a client who had been holding back for three years had seen an oiran.

"Are you Mr. Chen?!"

The blue-robed priest who had spoken earlier changed his expression at the speed of light, and smiled like a chrysanthemum. He took two steps at a time and came to Chen Mo, bowed and said:
"I am Qi Yifeng, the third-class priest. I have long heard of Captain Chen's great name!"

"Sacrificing one's own body to feed the monster, beheading the transformed monster python, this kind of bravery of sacrificing one's life for righteousness is really rare in the world! Seeing it today, he is truly a rare talent among men!"

"..."

Chen Mo was speechless for a moment.

Are all these worshippers professionally trained? How come each one is better at licking than the other?
But you know what, it feels good to lick it...

"Captain Chen, how did you discover the evil aura of Lin Huai, a minor official in the Ministry of Works? Even the envoy almost misjudged it."

"How do you know that the Zhou family is privately mining red ore?"

"The Nine Palaces Cloud Covering Formation was arranged so covertly, yet you were able to see the clues at a glance..."

Everyone gathered around and asked questions at once.

Their mentality is the same as that of Li Siya at the beginning.

For the Demon Suppression Division, slaying demons is the top priority. If they can learn a few tricks from Chen Mo, wouldn't it be easy to deal with the demons in the future?
Li Siya blinked and whispered, "Brother Chen, I've already told you that you are a very influential person in our Demon Suppression Division."

Chen Mo's mouth twitched, "I see."

"okay."

Li Siya interrupted and said, "Business is more important... Brother Chen, have you ever fought against that demon tribe?"

Everyone came back to their senses and their expressions became serious.

Level 1 monsters are extremely dangerous and are no joke!

Chen Mo nodded and said, "For some reason, the demon tribe got into a fight with the Gu God Cult. They were poisoned by the Gu, and their bodies were chopped into pieces by me. If nothing unexpected happens, they won't be able to hold on for long."

hiss!
Everyone gasped.

Since Chen Mo said it himself, they naturally would not question it.

Being able to beat a demon of his own level to the point of severe injury and death, while still being safe and sound himself, this kind of strength and means... truly is a man of great reputation!
"We have sent people to chase them upstream along the Canglan River, but we haven't received any news yet."

"If they have not already perished, then there must be other members of the same tribe to help them... The purpose of this demon tribe is likely related to the dragon energy in Linglan County..."

Li Siya pinched his chin and pondered for a moment.

call--

Suddenly, the wind blew past.

A falcon flew into the hall through the window and landed on the table, holding a piece of jade in its beak.

Li Siya reached out to take the jade and injected Yuan Qi into it.

After a moment, he looked slightly surprised.

"This is the news from Group 4."

"Traces of demons were found in the north. There are a lot of them. They are going down along the Canglan River and are about to cross the Hengjiang Ridge!"

Hengjiangling stretches for thousands of miles and is the dividing line between northern Xinjiang and the Central Plains.

After crossing Hengjiang Ridge and Yunfu Prefecture, you will reach the heartland of the Yuan Dynasty. Could it be that you are heading for Tiandu City again?

"These beasts are getting bolder and bolder!"

"This matter should be reported to the envoy immediately!"

At this time, a calm voice came from the air:

"Groups three and five, go north to support Group four, surround and kill the demons, and don't let them enter Yunfu."

"As you command, Your Excellency!"

A group of worshippers responded.

The voice paused and continued:
"The demon tribe's whereabouts are erratic and unpredictable. If Captain Chen is willing to go with us, the Demon Suppression Division will reward you handsomely afterwards."

Everyone looked at Chen Mo.

Go north to kill the demon?

I’m not really short of true spirits right now, as I still have three Dao crystals that are not being used.

Besides, this isn't a matter for the government office, and there's no merit in doing it. The so-called "generous reward" sounds like empty promises, and they want me to do hard labor without any real effort...

Just as Chen Mo was thinking to himself, a prompt text flashed before his eyes.

[Trigger special event: Monster hunting! ]

"Tsk, you came at the right time..."

Although there was no punishment for the failure of the event, the sweetness he had tasted in the previous times still made him somewhat tempted.

Chen Mo made a decision and said righteously: "Your Excellency the Counselor is too kind. Killing demons is also the duty of the Tianlin Guard. Since I have encountered it, I naturally cannot turn a blind eye."

A male voice came from the air: "Good."

Then, a stream of light flashed, and a jade plate hung in front of Chen Mo.

"This is a token from the Demon Suppression Bureau. It can transmit sound and sense directions through the air. Captain Chen, please get ready and gather at the East City Gate in two hours." said the male voice.

Chen Mo stretched out his hand to touch it, and the jade token sank into his palm, forming a complex dark pattern, which was a unique symbol of the worship of the Demon Suppression Bureau.

"So, I am also a non-staff member?"

Chen Mo didn't have any ill feelings towards these warlocks.

Moreover, they are proficient in alchemy and refining. Building good relationships with them will also make it easier to get free stuff in the future... uh, cooperation.

……

In the deep courtyard, under the old locust tree.

The old man in coarse linen clothes leaned back in the rocking chair and yawned lazily.

At one side, a middle-aged man with a square face stood with his hands hanging down, thick eyebrows and big eyes, looking very majestic.

"Mr. Ling, you seem to value this Chen Mo... particularly?" the middle-aged man asked cautiously.

The Demon Suppression Division is not there to just sit there and do nothing. They have hunted countless demons over the years and are very experienced. They do not need to rely on an outsider.

However, Mr. Ling personally asked him to bring Chen Mo along.

It seems that it is just to give Chen Mo a worship status...

The old man smiled and said, "This kid is quite interesting. I want to get closer and take a closer look."

The middle-aged man became even more curious after hearing this.

He dominated the top spot on the Qingyun Ranking List back then, and was considered an invincible genius who dominated his peers.

Even so, in the words of Mr. Ling, it only received the evaluation of "so-so, but there is still room for improvement".

This was the first time I heard Elder Ling say "interesting", and the other party was just a fledgling fifth-grade warrior.

"He looks a lot like me when I was young," the old man sighed.

? !
The middle-aged man was shocked. "Looks like you? Chen Mo's talent in Taoism is so strong?!"

"He has no talent for Taoism. He is strong and muscular, a pure warrior."

The old man sighed and said, "I was talking about my appearance. Back then, I was also a handsome man. The rich girls who wanted to marry me lined up from the east to the west of the city... Time is merciless."

"..."

Looking at that wrinkled old face that could kill a fly...

The middle-aged man tried to imagine for a long time, but finally gave up and lowered his head silently.

……

After Chen Mo left the Demon Suppression Division, he first returned to the division’s office.

After giving the Mo Dao to Li Yuan, she loved it so much that she held it in her arms and couldn't let it go.

Upon hearing that Chen Mo was going to hunt monsters, Li Yuan wanted to follow him. On the one hand, he was worried about him, and on the other hand, he also wanted to let his new knife see blood.

But Chen Mo did not agree.

The journey north is long, and the Dinghuo Division has just stabilized, so someone is needed to take charge... Besides, the main force of this operation is the Demon Suppression Division, not the Tianlin Guard, so there is no need to make a big fuss. He simply didn't bring any officers with him.

However, he still remembered that he had promised Lin Jingzhu last time that he would call her if there was a demon case, so he sent someone to the Six Gates to pass on the message.

While there is still time, Chen Mo plans to go to the Jiaofangsi.

After Yu'er became the oiran, she moved from Qingya Zhai to Yunshui Pavilion. The courtyard was more than three times larger, and the number of maids increased to fifteen.

Coincidentally, the previous owner of Yunshui Pavilion was Gu Manzhi...

……

Yunshui Pavilion, tea room.

Gu Manzhisu was holding a teapot and making tea.

Watch the tea leaves slowly expand in the water and the refreshing fragrance spreads.

She likes this process very much, as it allows her to clear her mind and calm her mind.

The man in gray robe sat opposite him, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Good tea."

"What did the sect say when the news of Elder Yu's death spread back?" Gu Manzhi asked.

The gray-robed man put down his teacup and replied, "The situation in Tiandu City has been chaotic recently. The sect asked you to hide your identity, protect yourself, continue to contact Chen Mo, and strive to get the Qingming Seal back as soon as possible."

Gu Manzhi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that.

It seems that the death of Elder Yu has caused the sect to temporarily give up the plan of using the poison.

As long as she could buy enough time and let her master see Chen Mo's value, all the problems would be solved, and she could be with Chen Mo openly...

Thinking of this, Gu Manzhi's face flushed slightly.

The gray-robed man glanced at her and said, "You'd better understand that the Chen family is a member of Concubine Yu's faction and is incompatible with the Yuehuang Sect. Chen Mo is only cooperating with us temporarily... Be careful or you will end up losing everything."

Gu Manzhi raised her lips and whispered, "I'm not afraid."

In the past, she might have had the same idea as Ye Henshui.

But now, she doesn't want to be timid and hesitant, leaving regrets in the end. "I can't always let him run to me, right?"

Gu Manzhi's beautiful peach blossom eyes were filled with determination.

The gray-robed man shook his head secretly.

Where did the scheming and calculating saint go?
It's like he has become a completely different person. He is willing to give up his life for Chen Mo... The master said that only by being completely indifferent to emotions can one achieve the great way. Nine out of ten people who fall in love will not have a good ending.

She is not as stupid as Gu Manzhi!

"I don't know what's so good about Chen Mo that makes you so obsessed with him..." the gray-robed man smacked his lips.

"Maybe it's because I'm good-looking?"

Suddenly, a clear male voice sounded.

? !
The gray-robed man stiffened and slowly turned his head to look.

I saw Chen Mo entered the room at some point and was standing at the door, looking at her with a smile.

"See you again, Xiao Hui..."

Before he finished speaking, the man in gray robe cried out in surprise and disappeared like a bubble.

?

Chen Mo frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Why does she run away every time she sees me?"

Gu Manzhi explained with a smile: "Because Master once said that men are poisonous, especially good-looking men. They are the most poisonous thing in the world. It is best to stay away from them. Otherwise, your Tao heart will be unstable and you may even lose your life... That's why she gets scared when she sees you."

"..."

Chen Mo touched his cheek.

Is this a compliment or a criticism?
He raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Manzhi, "Then you are not afraid?"

Gu Manzhi's face flushed, she licked her lips and said, "I have tasted it myself, it is not poisonous, Master is wrong."

Looking at her charming look with sparkling eyes, Chen Mo's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

This witch...

Every move is really a headache!

Chen Mo walked to the table and sat down.

Gu Manzhi took the teacup that Ye Henshui had used, poured a new cup of tea, and asked, "It's not time to leave yet, right? How come you have time to come here?"

Chen Mo said, "I will be leaving the city soon and will not be back for a few days. Yu'er may not have enough essence, so I will come here in advance to replenish her essence."

Gu Manzhi paused and asked, "Go out to handle the case?"

Chen Mo nodded and said, "I guess so."

Gu Manzhi didn't say anything else, and the atmosphere fell into a brief silence.

"Here, this is for you."

Chen Mo took out a round mirror from his Sumeru bag and placed it in front of her.

The mirror body is snow-white with intricate patterns carved on it. The mirror surface is as translucent as silver, with Yuan Qi condensed around it, and its appearance is quite good.

"This is a magic treasure made from the spine of a demon python. It can not only amplify the power of Taoism, but also protect the body and resist attacks from the soul. It should be quite suitable for you."

Although Gu Manzhi is very powerful in Taoism, she doesn't seem to have any decent magic weapon on her.

You know, she is a noble saint of the sect. From this point of view, the Yuehuang Sect is indeed not having an easy time...

Gu Manzhi looked at her beautiful face in the mirror, bit her lips, and said softly, "Thank you, I like it very much..."

At this time, the door opened and Yu'er walked in.

"Owner?!"

When she saw Chen Mo, her eyes suddenly lit up and she rushed over.

click-

A soft sound.

A white ring was buckled around Yu'er's neck, with a chain attached to it, and the other end was buckled on the table leg.

"Huh? What is this?"

Yu'er asked curiously.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "This is a gift for you. Do you like it?"

Yu'er's actions have become more and more bold recently. She always takes the initiative to apply to join a team. We have to control this girl properly.

If she doesn't listen next time, tie her up and make her act like a guard dog.

"I like it Ｏ(≧▽≦)Ｏ~ I like everything the master gives me!"

"This is the first time that the master has given Yu'er a gift. Yu'er is so happy and blessed..."

Yu'er sat on the ground in a duck-like posture, holding the chains in her hands and rubbing them on her face, her eyes were wet and her cheeks were flushed with a strange blush.

"..."

Chen Mo frowned slightly.

Why does it feel like she's getting more excited...

At this time, Gu Manzhi stood up and pulled him into the inner room.

"Come on, come into the house with me."

?

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "I'm not here..."

"I know."

Her peach blossom eyes glanced at him and snorted, "Let me clean you up first, so you don't have to hook up with other girls outside."

Chen Mo said helplessly: "But I have to leave in half an hour."

"There really isn't enough time..."

Gu Manzhi hesitated for a moment, took off the chain, handed it to Chen Mo, and said with a red face: "This should be faster..."

Chen Mo: "???"

……

Half an hour later.

Chen Mo arrived at the East City Gate, where everyone was already waiting.

Lin Jingzhu was wearing a white martial arts uniform and had a slender and well-proportioned figure, which made him particularly eye-catching among the green-robed worshippers.

She saw Chen Mo from a distance and waved with a smile, "Master Chen!"

Chen Mo came forward and asked, "Why are you alone? Where is Brother Shangguan?"

Lin Jingzhu spread his hands and said, "It seems that something happened at home and I can't get away for the time being..."

She came closer, lowered her voice, and said, "Are we going to work with the Demon Suppression Department on this case? These sorcerers are very arrogant, especially those who look down on warriors. If there is an argument, you must control your temper."

The Demon Suppression Division seldom cooperates with other government offices. Those priests are more arrogant than each other, and their eyes are almost growing on top of their heads.

With Chen Mo's temper, he might kill his teammates before even encountering the monsters.

"is it?"

Chen Mo said: "I think they are quite polite."

Lin Jingzhu shook his head and said, "You'll know in a moment..."

At this time, Qi Yifeng stepped forward and said respectfully: "Master Chen, the third and fifth groups, a total of ten priests, are ready. We can set off at any time."

Chen Mo nodded, "Let's go."

"Yes."

Qi Yifeng bowed and retreated.

Chen Mo shrugged, "See, I was right."

???

Lin Jingzhu's face was full of question marks.

She had dealt with the Demon Suppression Division before, and it was not like this at all...

……

……

The Yuan Dynasty had a vast territory, with the Central Plains being mainly plains. The Canglan River was surging and running across the north and south, giving birth to a large area of ​​fertile alluvial plains.

The further north you go, the more plateaus and mountains you see. They are majestic and steep, like the backbone of the earth.

Because the mountain road was rugged, the crowd did not choose to ride horses, but instead used speed talismans to speed up their journey, and their speed of running at full speed was faster than that of the Red Blood Horse.

It was the first time for Lin Jingzhu to experience this way of traveling, and he shouted excitedly along the way.

Because the situation was urgent, everyone did not stop halfway.

It was not until the evening of the next day that they found a restaurant to stay in Zeyang County, Yunfu Prefecture.

Li Siya activated the seal to send a message to the four groups, and then waited for the other party to come and meet.

"Boss, make one dish of each dish according to the menu, and give us two pounds of good wine." Lin Jingzhu said loudly.

"okay!"

The shopkeeper responded with a smile.

Yunfu Prefecture is not as prosperous as the Central Plains, and Zeyang County is remote with few travelers. It is a rare opportunity to meet a big customer, so we are naturally very happy.

Soon, the food and wine will be served.

Lin Jingzhu picked up the jar of wine and poured a full bowl of it. He tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp. His fair face quickly turned red.

"The wine here is much stronger than that in Tiandu City, it's comfortable..."

Chen Mo frowned and said, "You're still drinking when you're out investigating a case. Be careful not to miss out on important matters."

This man did not use his true energy to force out the alcohol, but was actually drinking happily.

Lin Jingzhu held the wine bowl and shook his head, "On the contrary, I will be delayed if I don't drink."

?

Chen Mo glanced over and vaguely saw a hint of frost fading from her neck.

I almost forgot that in the original plot, Lin Jingzhu has a special physique and a cold poison hidden in his marrow, which can only be suppressed by the Nine-Turn Ice Soul Technique.

No wonder she always drinks while on duty, probably to warm herself up this way...

Snapped--

Chen Mo took out a fire talisman and put it on her shoulder.

A warm current spread out, Lin Jingzhu shuddered, squinted his eyes comfortably, and white steam rose above his head.

"What is this? So comfortable~"

Chen Mo said calmly: "Warm Baby."

Demon Suppression Division Priest: “…”
