Chapter 17 Can only work hard

"no problem."

Zhang Su agreed immediately, and then looked at the police officers present.

Almost everyone lowered their heads subconsciously.

They had heard of the name of the Demon Suppressor, but they had seen the corpses of their colleagues with their own eyes before.

It's really too dangerous, and you might lose your life if you're not careful.

At this moment, Xu Rong said: "Sir, I am willing to go."

Zhang Su also did not expect that Xu Rong would speak at this time.

A smile appeared on his face: "Sure enough, a hero comes from a young age. I am very pleased that you have such courage."

But then he changed the topic: "However, you have elderly people at home who need to be taken care of, and you can't leave for a long time, so let's forget it."

"Don't worry, sir. My grandfather is still in good health and can take care of himself."

Xu Rong naturally understood what Zhang Su meant, but he also had his reasons for doing so.

First, just by speaking out, he can alleviate Zhang Su's embarrassment, increase his favorability, and get more care in the future.

Secondly, the soul-eating beads need to swallow more souls to accumulate the required soul power. The current speed is too slow, and Xu Rong does not want to wait another year.

And this time when we go to Linxi Town, if there is a conflict, people will definitely die. In this way, more souls can naturally be devoured.

Third, Xu Rong wanted to avenge Xu Ying.

He also understood that he was definitely no match for Han Shihai, the leader of the White Lotus Sect.

But he can destroy other people from the White Lotus Sect. He can not only devour souls and accumulate soul power, but he can also breathe out evil breath.

But he also has a doubt in his heart. Two days have passed, will the people of the White Lotus Sect still stay in Linxi Town?

Seeing Xu Rong's resolute attitude, Zhang Su understood that Xu Rong most likely wanted to take revenge.

He couldn't stop it, so he turned his attention to Zhao Long.

"Zhao Long, you go with me this time and take good care of Xu Rong. If he does anything wrong, he will be punished together with your previous crime of embezzling Xu Ying's pension!"

When the other detectives heard this, they looked at Zhao Long with wide eyes.

If Zhao Long had only touched the unspoken rules before, now he had touched their bottom line.

Being a police officer is inherently dangerous, and one day they may be gone. If they can't even get their pensions to their families, then what's the point of their sacrifices?

Many people looked at Zhao Long with disgust, and even the two demon-suppressing envoys frowned.

This kind of thing is rejected by people no matter where it is.

Zhao Long turned pale and wanted to make a quibble.

But Zhang Su didn't want to listen to him at all, waved his hand to shut him up, and then directly named a few more people.

"You guys follow the instructions of the Demon Suppressor. If there is anyone who violates the rules, the Demon Suppressor can deal with them directly."

Zhang Su looked directly at Zhao Long and said this.

Everyone understood that this was a warning to Zhao Long not to make any small moves.

"yes!"

Xu Rong answered along with everyone.

"Master Zhang, let's take our leave now."

After the two demon-suppressing envoys said goodbye politely, they led the eight detectives out together.

Zhang Su watched them disappear at the door and said, "From today on, Huo Mingjue will be promoted to the position of head catcher, and he will handle daily affairs."

"Thank you for the promotion, sir!"

Huo Mingjue did not expect that such a good thing would happen as soon as he came back.

Of course he understood what was going on. It seemed that Xu Rong had just informed the county magistrate about the embezzlement of his third uncle's pension.

'Xu Rong is really my lucky star. As soon as he came back, Zhao Long was pushed to the edge and was unable to compete with me for the position of head catcher. Now he has helped me to take this position.'



After leaving the Yamen, everyone got on their horses one after another, and then, led by a policeman who was familiar with the road, a group of ten people started heading towards Linxi Town.

Zhao Long felt that others were staying away from him intentionally or unintentionally, and he felt depressed but had nowhere to vent.

He raised his head and looked at Xu Rong in front of him, his eyes full of resentment.

He did not expect that this young boy would be so bold as to directly tell the county magistrate about the pension.

More importantly, the county magistrate was obviously convinced, leaving him no chance to quibble.

He knew very well that after today's incident, his position with the catcher had become further and further away, and it was even a question of whether he could keep his position as deputy catcher.

The most important thing is that even if he wants to kill Xu Rong quickly, he still has to protect his safety, otherwise he will be in even greater trouble when he returns to Cang Qing City.

If he was charged with murdering his colleagues, he would be doomed.

The group of people concentrated on their journey, no one made a sound, only the sound of horse hooves echoed in the wilderness.

When the sun was about three o'clock in the sky, the group saw their destination not far away - Linxi Town.

The group of people repaired under the shade of a tree for a while.

After drinking half the water, Xu Rong hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Sir, it's been two days since the incident. Everyone from the White Lotus Sect should have escaped, right? Where should we look for people then?"

This is also something Xu Rong found quite strange before.

Two days have passed, enough time for the people of the White Lotus Sect to travel hundreds of miles. They probably won't even be able to see a hair in the past.

Tie Ying turned to look at Xu Rong, a smile appearing on his tough face.

"Since we know that there is a sub-rudder in Linxi Town, we naturally have to take a look and search to see if we can find anything."

"Moreover, generally these cults will not give up easily, the believers and territory they have developed with great difficulty."

"Perhaps they will hide to avoid the limelight, but there are very few cases of clean and neat escapes by docking their tails. Most of them have passed the limelight and come back to make trouble."

"As long as we can catch their tail, we can follow the clues and find what we want."

Xu Rong suddenly realized: "So that's it, I've learned a lesson."

He is just a newbie in the profession of police officers, so naturally he doesn't understand these things, and no one will take the initiative to tell him these things.

If the original third uncle was still around, he would naturally teach him, but it's a pity...

Tie Ying smiled and then said: "It's really good for you to reach your current level of cultivation at your age."

"Your Excellency, you are so complimentary. My meager cultivation is not worth mentioning."

Xu Rong is still very self-aware.

He can reach the state of muscle training within a year with his own efforts.

Those children from big places and wealthy and powerful families not only have resources that he can't compare to, but they also have no shortage of exercises and teachings from famous teachers.

What does he have?

He can only work hard.

It's just that compared to ordinary people, he is lucky enough to have one more Soul-Eating Pearl.
