No taboos

Chapter 229 The Old Fox's Divination

When the group returned to Yujing Village, Zhou Leizi saw Wan Yun and laughed strangely, "Patrol Inspector Wan is back! Did your Fu Zhanglu personally save your life?"

What is coming has finally come... Wan Yun's old face turned red.

Di Youzhi coughed twice.

But this hottie Zhou Leizi didn't care at all. He opened and closed his big mouth quickly, and let me enjoy myself first.

"Inspector Wan, you can't wrongly accuse us this time. We didn't initiate the trouble. It was the Mountain and River Division who wanted to kill us."

"We also want to be like you and unite with that beautiful female lawyer. She looks down on us."

"I guess it's because our status is too low. At least if we have your status, people will look at us differently."

"Hey, after all this talk, did that female judge who favored you save you?"

Only then did Di Youzhi curse, "You're the only one with a big mouth? I asked you to boil water, have you done it yet?"

"It's burned."

"Then hurry up and get them to wash Inspector Wan and Lord Xu!"

"Yes." Zhou Leizi went with his head held high and chest puffed out, feeling refreshed all over.

Wan Yun's brothers wished they could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Yu Yunhang came up at the right moment and asked the two inspectors, "My Lords, what are your plans for tonight?"

Xu Yuan took the initiative to say: "Please give your instructions, Master Wan."

Wan Yun breathed a sigh of relief and was secretly grateful to the two of them for changing the topic that had embarrassed him.

I was really blinded by greed before!
Brother Xu is such a good person.

Wan Yun asked himself, if he were in Xu Yuan's shoes, he would not be able to be so magnanimous and save others.

Even if he saved someone, he would definitely make some sarcastic remarks and make sure Xu Yuan lose face.

But he saved his life and the lives of his brothers.

He didn't say a single harsh word and even took the initiative to help me out of the situation.

Repay evil with kindness!

Wan Yun had already made up his mind. After returning, he secretly advised Lord Xie to win over Brother Xu and not let the relationship become strained again.

It's not just because Brother Xu has done me a favor this time, but also because... if you make an enemy of such a talent, Lord Xie will not be able to stay in the Champa Office any longer.

"It's too late to set up camp," Wan Yun said. "Talk to the villagers and get them to vacate some houses so we can stay for the night. Brother Xu, what do you think?"

Xu Yuan nodded and said, "Let's do as Master Wan said." He added, "Tell the brothers to give them some silver as a place to stay. The villagers are very scared after what happened, so they should be more gentle."

Xu Yuan promised Tian Jing and Jiao that he would take care of the villagers.

Wan Yun gave a thumbs up: "Brother Xu is more thoughtful."

Yu Yunhang went there.

Wan Yun pulled Xu Yuan and said with emotion: "I didn't understand why Shi Ba Ding was so convinced by you before, brother. Now I..." He patted his chest: "I am convinced too!"

Xu Yuan smiled awkwardly.

I remembered that not long ago, I had come back specially to bring people to watch his fun and embarrass him...

I don't seem to deserve such praise.

But you have praised me so much, if I don’t admit it, it would be a slap in your face.

I can't do this!

Then let the past go with the wind, and put the past behind us!
Yu Yunhang came back soon and gave Xu Yuan an apologetic smile: "Sir, the silver..."

Xu Yuan suddenly remembered that everyone's money was on him. He was about to take it out when Wan Yun grabbed his hand very hard!
"How can I let you pay for this, brother? I'll do it!"

"This……"

"If you're polite again, you're looking down on me!"

"Ok."

Wan Yun took out all the silver in his pocket, which amounted to more than seventy taels.

A fifty-liang silver note, and the rest were loose change.

"It's extra. I'll give it to the brothers to drink after we return to the city. Just consider it as..." Wan Yun sighed, "I, Wan Yun, apologize to the brothers."

"Thank you, Inspector!" Yu Yunhang took the silver and left with a smile.

They slept through the night, and the next morning, everyone checked the almanac and found out that today's prohibitions were:
Loud voice, gluttony, execution, and moon gazing.

The Extermination Division cleaned up and prepared to return to the city. Xu Yuan instructed Lang Xiaoba, "Go find the village chief."

The village chief of Yujing Village is an old man in his fifties.

He came in response to the call, but his attitude was very cold.

They can't tell the difference between the Mountain and River Division and the Filth Removal Division.

Even though the Ministry of Extermination of Impurities gave them money yesterday, they were still full of resentment and vigilance towards the imperial government.

Xu Yuan took out a business card of his own and handed it to him.

Xu Yuan never felt that he needed this thing.

It was prepared by Yu Yunhang.

"I am Xu Yuan, Deputy Inspector of the Department of Extermination of Filth."

"If there are any difficulties in the village in the future, please send someone to the Champa Office, and I will do my best to help."

The village chief took the name card and simply clasped his fists woodenly: "I'll remember it."

The old man didn't say thank you at all. He didn't think these officials had any good intentions at all.

Xu Yuan waved his hand and let him go without further explanation, and then followed the large group of people from the Quhui Division and set out back to Champa.

Xu Yuan knew that although Tian Jing and Jiao had left, they would definitely come back later. He secretly told the villagers that they could ask Lord Xu for help if they had any difficulties.

……

Tian Jing and Jiao traveled all night and arrived at Guiwu Mountain.

Tian Jing went to visit Bai Laoyan.

Speaking of Xu Yuan, I felt a little sad. It turned out that everyone had a "fate" going on here!
Bai Laoyan then led them to Guanghuo Street.

The dragon transformed into a giant red-horned snake and wrapped itself around Tian Jing.

When they were almost at Laoyakou, a black fox in a Taoist robe suddenly came from the front.

The old fox walked slowly with his hands behind his back.

Old Bai was lucky enough to have met Xu Yuan once before.

He immediately stepped aside respectfully, clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "Please go first, senior."

Tian Jing also made way.

The black fox said "hmm" and walked over. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and he turned around to stare at Tian Jing.

Tian Jing felt uneasy.

I had a mysterious feeling: those eyes seemed to suddenly become as huge as the sun and the moon, staring at me from the sky!

This old guy is unfathomable!
The old fox didn't leave, but turned around and asked, "Why did you come to Ghost Witch Mountain?"

Tian Jing thought he was being asked and wondered why he didn't recognize the fox.

But he heard the dragon on his body answer: "We are ready to move in."

The dragon looked at the fox with fear.

The old fox frowned: "How did you escape from that girl?"

Tian Jing was horrified. What was the origin of this old fox? He actually knew...

Jiao patted his shoulder gently with his little claws, suggesting that he not to be nervous.

The dragon raised its head and looked at the old fox, and asked, "What do you want to know?"

The old fox snorted, "I've told you that you won't survive this."

The dragon said, "There is a noble person who can help me."

The old fox was even more confused, and looked at Bai Laoyan and said, "These two are vague and can't be explained clearly. You speak."

Bai Laoyan hesitated for a moment, but decided to answer truthfully: "It was Master Xu who saved them."

The old fox was stunned: "It's him again..."

Tian Jing and Jiao were secretly surprised: This unfathomable old fox also knows Lord Xu?

The old fox waved his claws and said, "Since you've moved in, move around more often."

"Okay." Jiao replied.

Only Jiao deserves the old fox's polite words. Neither Tian Jing nor Bai Laoyan are qualified.
