Chapter 27
In the afternoon, Xia Wuji was practicing boxing and knife.
Boxing is the basic boxing technique and the tiger boxing, and the knife technique is the tiger knife technique and the basic knife technique.
Although the boxing and sword skills he practiced were very simple, Xia Wuji enjoyed it.
He likes this simple and direct attack method.
There is no fancy or extra action, there is only a concise attack.
He felt that this was the real killing technique.
"Tu tuk tuk."
There was a knock outside the door.
"Is Mr. Xia Wuji and Young Master Xia at home?"
A thick middle-aged voice said outside.
Xia Hu was practicing, and Yun Qingyao walked out of the room and asked, "Who are you?"
"At the brigade leader Cheng Shan, the captain of the third brigade of the Demonic Division, Director Feng specially asked Young Master Xia Wuji to help destroy ghosts."
The people outside the door directly explained their purpose.
"Let him in."
Xia Wuji walked out of the courtyard and said to Yun Qingyao at the gate.
Yun Qingyao nodded and then opened the door.
A middle-aged man stepped into the door, with a deep breath.
Xia Wuji clasped his fists and said, "Captain Cheng."
"You are welcome to be polite, Mr. Xia."
Cheng Shan said with a smile with a fist clasped his fists.
As he said that, he looked up and down at Xia Wuji.
I vaguely felt Xia Wuji's blood was strong.
But Xia Wuji's body was tempered to the extreme because of practicing "Thirty-Six Changes of Stars", and his aura was restrained, and he was quite back to nature, but he looked even more ordinary.
So much so that Cheng Shan did not realize that Xia Wuji was actually in the realm of refining the organs, and he thought he was still just a martial artist, so he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
Can this kid really destroy ghosts?
He naturally knew that although Xia Wuji's parents were immortal cultivators, he himself could not cultivate immortals and could only practice martial arts. Moreover, he was a half-baked man in martial arts. This was not a new thing in the entire Blue Moon City.
If Xia Wuji was a cultivator and said he wanted to destroy ghosts, he would still believe it.
After all, immortal cultivators have many incredible powerful magic.
But Xia Wuji is just a warrior, but it is unbelievable to say that he wants to destroy ghosts.
When a warrior destroys ghosts, he or she relies on extremely powerful qi and blood, but this kind of ghost that can only kill ordinary people. If a ghost turns into a resentful spirit or even a fierce ghost, it will be difficult for the warrior to compete with it.
Either it is made of talismans and magic weapons from immortal cultivators, but these precious talismans and magic weapons require magic power to activate them. If a warrior wants to activate these, it is said that he needs to use formations.
But these formations are also expensive.
Although Xia Wuji's aura is strong, it is obscure, so he should still be a martial artist.
Therefore, if Xia Wuji wants to destroy ghosts, he can only rely on talismans and magic weapons, and the cost is not too high.
Xia Wuji brought Cheng Shan into the living room and asked him to sit down. Yun Qingyao consciously presented tea.
Cheng Shan said straight to the point: "Sir Chief Secretary heard that Mr. Xia can destroy ghosts, so he is here to come down and invite him."
"Of course, the Demon Suppressing Department will not treat Mr. Xia unfairly. Every time he kills an ordinary ghost, he will have ten taels of silver, five hundred taels of silver, and eight hundred taels of shadow of a evil ghost. If he kills a demon, he will directly cost two thousand taels of silver. I wonder what Mr. Xia wants to do?"
Xia Wuji's heart moved.
Two thousand taels of silver are actually a lot, equivalent to four low-grade spirit stones.
But his face was quiet, he smiled slightly, and said, "As a citizen of Blue Moon City, the Demon Suppression Department has some orders, so I should go there, but I am currently practicing at a critical time, so..."
Cheng Shan frowned slightly.
But when he thought about the bottom line given to him by the Chief Director before leaving, he ordered him to invite Xia Wuji no matter what method he used, Cheng Shan said again: "If Mr. Xia is willing to go, the reward can be doubled."
Cheng Shan believed that since the Chief Director Qian told Wan that Xia Wuji must be invited over, it can be seen that the Chief Director must know that Xia Wuji has some powerful magic weapons and talismans.
So, he simply threw out the last card.
He didn't believe that such a high reward would not attract the young master of the Xia family.
Xia Wuji shook his head slightly, opened his mouth and was about to say something, Cheng Shan frowned slightly and continued, "This is the greatest promise that our Demon Suppressing Department can make."
Xia Wuji laughed and said, "This is not a matter of money."
Cheng Shan's face slightly darkened, thinking that Xia Wuji would continue to refuse.
If Xia Wuji refuses, he will not be able to submit a job when he goes back.
Just as he was about to speak, Xia Wuji said, "Since Captain Cheng said so, then if I don't agree, it will seem inhumane."
Cheng Shan was slightly stunned and nodded.
Although Xia Wuji is still a young man who is not as good as the champion, he is still a little keen and knows that some things cannot be refused.
"Since that's the case, I'll say goodbye first, I'll wait for the big van in the Demon Suppression Division."
Cheng Shan stood up and said.
"Captain Cheng, don't worry, I will go there next night."
Xia Wuji stood up and clasped his fists.
Cheng Shan nodded, then turned around and walked out.
It comes quickly, goes quickly, and is neat.
It disappeared at the door in a blink of an eye.
"You are going to kill ghosts tonight?"
Yun Qingyao put down the teapot in her hand and asked Xia Wuji who was holding her hands behind her back.
"Yes." Xia Wuji turned his head, "What's wrong?"
"Why should I take me with me too? I want to see it."
Yun Qingyao said with bright eyes.
"no!"
Xia Wuji rejected her without thinking.
What a joke? I finally woke up last time and my body had just recovered.
If you are caught by a ghost again, then... who will do the chores at home?
"I won't be a burden to you..."
Yun Qingyao still wanted to fight, but was rejected by Xia Wuji mercilessly: "That's not OK! Be honest at home, I've made money back, and I'll buy you two... No, three candied haws with wine hearts."
After saying that, he walked out.
Hey? Why are the three wine-hearted rock candied haws?
Yun Qingyao blinked her big eyes.
I can't eat so much by myself.
Then he shouted from behind: "I can't get that much, I can't eat it."
"It's not for you to eat alone." Xia Wuji didn't look back, "Of course, each of our three people is one."
The sound slowly floated.
Yun Qingyao: “…”
...
In a blink of an eye, it was night.
When the lights first came on, the streets began to get lively.
Rouge House, located in the south city, is a general term covering seven brothels on the shores of Yue Lake and Yue Lake.
There is no other business here except brothels. It seems that there are too few businesses, but it is the largest gold-selling cave in Blue Moon City.
It is said that the owner behind Rougefang is the city lord's mansion, so even several major gangs here dare not get involved.
Cheng Shan and a group of subordinates took Xia Wuji to the west and walked straight to a painting boat by Yue Lake.
All the pleasure boats were lit up, but this one was pitch black.
It’s not that I don’t want to light the light, but that I can’t light it.
It's strange that this pleasure boat called Xiuyue can light the lights at will during the day, but at night, it can't be lit no matter how hard it is.
Cheng Shan and others climbed up and down the three floors of the pleasure boat during the day, but they couldn't find any reason.
Xia Wuji was also surprised when he heard the news. There was such a strange thing.
Cheng Shan and others asked Xia Wuji to come here, first to try whether he really has the ability to destroy ghosts, and secondly, he hoped to find out the reason.
Of course, you have to add more money.
