Great Xuanwu Sheng Chapter 108

 Chapter 108 Mission

“The Demon Slayer Division is different from other yamen offices. Unless there is some large-scale demon chaos, it generally does not control the whole from top to bottom like other yamen offices. It is relatively free on weekdays and can take on tasks on its own.”

Xu Hongyu briefly introduced the situation of the Demon Slayer Division while walking.

She went out to the city to hunt demons before, and she was under the name of the Demon Slayer Division. With her identity, she naturally knew much more about the Demon Slayer Division than Chen Mu. After making a statement at this time, Chen Mu roughly understood a lot. .

First of all, there are elite guards stationed outside the county city to guard Yucheng, and each of the seven counties in Yu County also has guards stationed at the county government. Unless there is a large-scale demonic chaos, the county, city, and county offices are basically as stable as Mount Tai. .

So.

 On weekdays, most of the men and horses of the Demon Slaying Division are scattered around Yu County to hunt monsters.

To put it bluntly, when there is no large-scale demon chaos, the Demon Slayer Division is more like a loose organization. Anyone from the Dusi to the Deputy Dusi to the White Guards and Qingyi Guards can take on tasks related to slaying monsters on their own and exchange monster corpses for corresponding tasks. Meritorious service.

 The various tasks of the Demon Slayer Division are based on information transmitted from all directions throughout Yu County. After analysis and sorting, they are placed in the main hall and are generally divided into four levels: black, green, white, and purple.

Among them, the 'black level' missions generally involve first- and second-level monsters, and the threat is relatively small. Often, a well-trained martial artist can kill any second-level monster. As long as the number is not very large, generally black-clad guards can Can handle it.

 Then there are 'green level' missions, which often involve a small number of third-level monsters and require green-clad guards of the Yijin realm to deal with them. Such tasks usually have clear information indicating the type and quantity.

Then there are the 'white level' missions, which still involve third-level monsters, but the number and type are often unknown, and the degree of danger and trouble is greatly increased. Either a large number of green-clothed guards go out together, or white-clothed guards lead the team.

 The last is the 'Purple Level' mission, which involves fourth-level monsters and requires the dispatch of a person above the deputy capital.

soon.

Chen Mu followed Xu Hongyu into the main hall of the Demon Slayer Division. The place was very open and spacious. There were about a dozen officials sorting documents or carrying things, but it was still very quiet. Occasionally, there were guards in green or black who came in and out. Pass by in a hurry.

 Xu Hongyu walked all the way to the innermost side, showed her badge, and said calmly:

 “A white-level assignment.”

The person in charge of the task was an old man. After taking a look at the badge, he turned around and took out a document and handed it to Xu Hongyu.

 “Let's go.”

Xu Hongyu turned around and greeted Chen Mu and others, and then walked out.

 This is too simple and clear.

Chen Mu was a little surprised when he saw this scene. The entire process of the Demon Slayer Division can be said to be extremely simple, including the assessment part. It was very simple, just getting the badge, changing clothes, and even accepting the mission. A matter of words.

 No wonder the atmosphere in the entire Demon Slayer Division is so solemn. Some of the guards in green and black who were seen outside were all passing by in a hurry. No one stopped at all, and no one chatted.

  There is no need to meet the boss, let alone manage the subordinates, it is a direct point-to-point process.

No wonder Xu Hongyu seemed to feel much more relaxed after she came to the Demon Slaying Division. Perhaps this kind of office is more suitable for her, as she doesn't need to fight with others like she did in the City Guard Division.

Xu Hongyu led Chen Mu and Xiao He out of the Demon Slaying Division.

He walked to a secluded and uninhabited place, then took out the document, read it carefully, and then handed the document to Chen Mu. Chen Mu reached out to take it, and then he and Xiao He looked at it together.

 The contents of the document are very simple.

 【In the northwest of Anyu County, a hundred and fifty miles away, there are monsters coming out and entering the village to eat people, suspected to be wolf monsters】

Other than a general direction, there is no very specific location, and there is not even specific information about the monster. It is only said that it is suspected to be a wolf monster, its strength is unknown, and its quantity is unknown.

“This information is too vague.”

 Chen Mu shook his head slightly after reading it.

Xu Hongyu said calmly: "Most white-level missions are like this. If the information is very clear, it is often a green-level mission, and the merits you can get will be much less... Without further ado, let's set off."

"good."

Chen Mu's eyes were very calm at this time.

Although the farthest he went out of the city in the past was only at the mass graves outside the city, this time he had to leave the county directly and go to the county government below, but he still had no worries in his heart.

After all, he is no longer the cautious little servant who lived in troubled times. Now, with his strength, he can destroy ordinary monsters with just one hand and can travel across a county.

The three of them quickly left the inner city.

When they arrived at the outer city, Xu Hongyu quickened her pace and landed more than ten feet away with one leap. Xiao He followed with all her strength, while Chen Mu also followed calmly. Several people passed quickly along the remote alleys. Ordinary people even No one could be seen clearly.

Only some powerful gang members noticed Xu Hongyu and his group as they quickly passed through the streets. However, when they saw the white and green clothes on Xu Hongyu and Chen Mu, they all showed a bit of fear.

 “Demon Slayer Division!”

No one dared to stop them, so they all gave way.

In Yucheng, the only people who kill demons must not stop them from causing trouble, otherwise they will be killed casually and their deaths will often be in vain. He walked quickly through the road and soon arrived at a place that Chen Mu was familiar with.

He jumped several feet off the ground and followed Xu Hongyu. His eyes glanced around. Just on the route, there was his former residence. At this time, he saw the familiar streets and alleys from a distance, and saw the place where he once lived. The two dilapidated houses that had passed away for many years made me feel nostalgic for a while.

There was a time when he was still struggling in this misery and would not even partake of a meal of meat. Now, in just a few years, he has served as Chatou, Chaosi, and now the Green Yiwei of the Demon Slayer Division, and he has risen through the ranks like this.

The emotion in Chen Mu's eyes just flashed across his eyes.

The figures of a few people quickly disappeared among the streets. Many people who still lived here did not even notice that anyone was passing by. Only a few streets away, a figure stopped there, looking at Chen Mu and others in a daze. The direction in which people go away.

He was wearing an official uniform of Chatou. He was obviously more mature than a few years ago and had grown a lot of beard. However, he was Chen Mu's colleague, Ren Yan. After a few years, he was finally promoted to Chatou. seat.

 “That person…”

Ren Yan looked at the direction Xu Hongyu and his group were leaving from a distance, and stood there in shock.

They were a little far away, and he didn't see Xu Hongyu who passed by first. Chen Mu and Xiao He who followed were very fast and a little blurry, but after all, he saw a profile face that looked a little familiar.

 Is it Chen Mu?

 He remembered that Chen Mu had been promoted to Wutongli Chaosi a long time ago, but he left the post a few months ago and his whereabouts are unknown.

 Some people say that Chen Mu's future may be uncertain, but he was wearing the same clothes just now.

 “The Green Yi Guards of the Demon Slayer Division…”

Ren Yan shook his head silently, showing a self-deprecating look.

This is a level that he has no access to at all, and it is enough to easily crush people like him. Let alone him, even Min Baoyi, the Chaosi in Kutiao, must bow respectfully in front of the Qingyi Guard of the Demon Slayer Division. It is not a status.

 At that time,

He actually wants to compete with such a person for fame and fortune.

If you think of his rudeness back then, I am afraid that one sentence can make him irredeemable, but for a small person like him, perhaps the other party today will not be able to remember it at all.

 Chen Mu did not notice Ren Yan.

Even if you notice it, you probably won't pay much attention to it, let alone pay attention to it.

Only Liu Song, Li Tie and others who used to follow him would care. When he left office, he also transferred Liu Song and Li Tie back to Jiutiao and relocated them to Min Baoyi. Of course, he still controlled them secretly. He has a group of informants in Wutong, and he was also his former confidant. His status is completely different from before. Even Min Baoyi treats him politely.

　　Very quickly left the city.

Xu Hongyu took out a map, took a rough look at it, and said:

"Anyu County is located in the southwest of Yu County. It is relatively remote. There is a Qiulin Mountain Range between it and Yu County. Generally, merchants or freight transport travel by water, or take the official road, bypassing the Qiulin Mountains. But we need to move faster and directly cross the Qiulin Mountains."

Chen Mu glanced at the map.

There is a long waterway connecting Anyu County and Yucheng, which happens to be the river running through Yucheng. However, this waterway is continuous and winding, twisting and turning on the complex terrain.

As for the marked official road, it bypassed the Qiulin Mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles. It was a big turn. The distance of the road was at least twice as long. However, compared to the merchants, they would rather take a longer detour. Prefer to take the official route.

 After all, the official road is flat and there are inns at every other section. The inns are stationed with guards to guard the official road. Therefore, when walking on the official road, the possibility of encountering robbers, bandits or ferocious monsters will be much smaller.

 “Qiulin Mountains…”

 Chen Mu looked at the mountain forest marked on the map, and some information emerged in his mind.

During his time in the Yu family, he read various books, including not only Daxuan's various records, but also various situations in Yu County, including maps. For example, he knew many situations in the Qiulin Mountains, such as the outskirts of this mountain range, and how to feed people. There are a lot of woodworkers and hunters in the nearby villages, so it's not very dangerous.

As for the inner siege, because it is not very far from Yucheng, there are no particularly vicious monsters. Even occasionally, some of the children of big families in the inner city will be taken by their elders to the Qiulin Mountains to hunt monsters for experience.

Even if he is not here, with Xu Hongyu's strength alone, there will be no problem in crossing.

Xiao He saw Chen Mu thinking deeply and thought that Chen Mu had some suggestions, so he looked over. Xu Hongyu also paused and looked at Chen Mu. It was clearly Chen Mu's first time out of the city, but he seemed to pay attention to Chen Mu invariably. Mu's opinion.

However, Chen Mu only shook his head and said: "I don't have any objections. Mr. Xu, you just give the orders."

Xu Hongyu looked at Chen Mu carefully with a pair of clear eyes, and suddenly said: "There is no need to shout so formally. There is not much difference between you and me now. Just call me by my name from now on."

 Say it.

 Let's lead the way to the Qiulin Mountains first.
