Chapter 176: The Evil Suppression Department, the Spirit Cleansing Department! [14, please subscribe]
The profession of soul-washer
This is the first time Wei Han has heard of it!
He even didn't know much about the Suppression of Evil Department.
But he made a surprising discovery from Mu Xiyue.
The Evil Suppression Department collects countless evil objects every year when handling strange cases. In order to completely eliminate the threat, they vigorously recruit warriors to wash these objects with Qi and blood. These people are called - spirit washers!
Because these spirit washers need to use Qi and blood to wash away evil objects all year round, they are haunted by the cold air. They often suffer from regression in cultivation, extreme pain, and plummeting life span. The unlucky ones often encounter strange things and eventually die suddenly on the spot!
Therefore, few people are willing to take up the profession of spiritual cleanser.
While offering high prices to recruit people from the private sector, the Suppression of Evil Division also threw in all kinds of death row prisoners, fugitives, bandits, and bullies, killing countless people every year.
"Isn't this just right for me?"
Wei Han was secretly pleasantly surprised.
As a lazy guy who wants to gain merit and derive elixir recipes, but also doesn't want to run around on missions, the profession of Spirit Washer is perfect for him.
This is a large independent courtyard.
"Hey, don't!" Wei Han suddenly said unhappily: "I'm too busy now, you'd better arrange for me to work."
The guards were not surprised at all, and stopped paying attention after leaving a word.
Wei Han didn't care, and still insisted: "It's okay, I'm in good shape and can handle it. How do I sign up to be a spirit washer?"
At the gate, two guards in green clothes and swordsmen scolded him.
Wei Han smiled naively and said: "I haven't joined the Evil Suppression Department yet, so I don't have a badge. I just heard that people are being recruited here, so I came here to have a look!"
Like a dead man with no warmth, his appearance made the atmosphere in the hall extremely cold, and almost no one dared to look at him.
The middle-aged clerk shook his head sadly again.
"I just want to make money, I don't care if I live or die!" Wei Han looked like he was greedy for money, but the other party didn't have much to say.
Wei Han walked straight into the Zhenxie Division.
"Young man, don't be stupid and leave quickly!"
After some registration, he threw over a waist badge!
There is also a banknote worth one hundred taels!
Wei Han did not dare to run blindly, and followed the directions into a large hall. There were quite a few people gathered here, and there were also a few officials who looked like they were working.
"Excuse me, can we recruit spiritual washers here?" Wei Han asked an official, and more than a dozen pairs of eyes in the entire hall looked over.
"I can't take care of you. The people here are just waiting to die. Let's go!" The man turned around lamely and walked to the backyard of Zhenxie Division. As he walked, he said: "My name is Li Song, you can call me Lao Li.
There are not many normal people in our spiritual washing department, so you'd better be mentally prepared."
Most of the people here have shackles on their feet. They should be the escapees from death row who were forced to work here by Li Song. There are also a few who are not wearing shackles, and they probably have the same status as Wei Han.
noon that day
A young man with an honest face stepped into the branch of Pingzhou Prefecture located in the west of the county city. It occupies a huge area and is heavily guarded. Every warrior who comes in and out is fierce and murderous, no less than a military camp.
He was lame on his left leg and his face was covered with scars!
Not only does he look terrifying, but his eyes are also very cold.
"I'm Xu Huang!" Wei Han opened his mouth and yelled: "I was originally from Qingshan County, and later fled to the county. I am eighteen years old this year. I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child and now I have reached the peak of the Skin Refining Realm."
There are many secret sentry guards overtly and covertly, so even a fly can't even think of sneaking in.
"Not bad!" Wei Han cupped his fists and replied, "Xu Huang, I'm new here. Please take good care of me in the future."
"Young man, do you want to join the Spirit Cleaners?" A middle-aged clerk frowned and said, "Do you know the key to this?"
"Clearly, clearly, this treatment is good!"
"Come here to register, what's your name?" The middle-aged clerk lamented and found a book to register for him.
"Stop, what are you doing? Where's the badge?"
"I don't know, I just heard that there is a lot of money." Wei Han smiled naively: "I have been poor since I was a child, and I have to save money to go back to my hometown to marry a wife. I will do whatever I want as soon as I get money."
At this moment, people were busy coming in and out from time to time.
Li Song couldn't help being stunned for a moment, but he still didn't refuse and just led him inside.
"Old Li, come here and take away the newcomers from your spiritual washing department." The middle-aged clerk shouted outside, and soon a lame man in gray clothes walked in.
"Go straight in and don't run around!"
The workshop of the Spiritual Cleansing Department is a completely enclosed black stone room!
Wei Han listened silently without saying a word, but he could tell that this man was hard-spoken and soft-hearted, so he should be easier to get along with.
"Hey, are there still people who are looking for death?"
You get a high salary happily, occasionally destroy a few weirdos to accumulate merit, and then you can increase your strength after deducing the elixir formula. It is a perfect closed loop!
"Are you crazy, kid? How can you make a fortune as a spirit washer? I'm afraid you have a life to make money, but not a life to spend!"
"What are sealed in the hall are all weird objects!" Li Song introduced: "We are either death row prisoners or fugitives. Most of them are imprisoned here. There are only seven or eight normal people. You'd better not
Conflicts with other people. In addition, I work between afternoon and evening every day. You report on the first day today, and I hope you can work again tomorrow!"
“I am determined to be the soul-washer, even Jesus can’t stop him!”
"Oh, you are such an amazing young man!" The middle-aged clerk exclaimed: "With this ability, you can just find someone from a wealthy family to look after a house or a nursing home. Even if you go to the dock to carry big bags, it is still better than being a spirit washer. What the hell are you doing?"
What do you think?"
"Thank you!"
The place is very large, with many courtyards built around it, each separated by attic walls, which makes it look very depressing.
Wei Han smiled excitedly.
Everyone spoke in a hurry.
There are not only two mysterious halls, but also a cafeteria and a low dormitory area. There are more open and hidden sentries around, making it look like a prison.
The Spirit Cleansing Department is located in the deepest part of the Evil Suppression Department!
"Are you the newcomer?" The man frowned.
"This is the settlement fee!" the middle-aged clerk said with a sneer: "You will not be able to quit after entering the Spirit Cleansing Department of the Evil Suppression Department for three years. You will have to work at least 20 days a month and work for 3 hours every day from afternoon to evening.
, the monthly salary is 50 taels, and there will be a reward if you live a long time, is it clear?"
Wei Han felt secretly happy and decisively began to think about joining the Evil Suppression Division!
…
Looking at him with an angry look on his face, it was like looking at a dead person.
"No, you really don't know how to live or die. Apart from death row prisoners and seriously ill patients who are dying soon, how many people are willing to take the initiative to be a soul-washer these days?"
It's just that everyone here has a sallow complexion, thin skin, and withered Qi and blood!
There was still a cold air all over his body, like a dying person, without any life.
Even when they saw the newcomer Wei Han arriving, their expressions did not change at all. Most of them were too numb to even look at him, and just went about their own business silently!
"This is the most mysterious soul-cleansing department in the Evil Suppression Department? It's interesting!" Wei Han murmured with interest.
