Great Xuanwu Sheng Chapter 114

Chapter 114 Anyu County

 Anyu County.

  County government.

Compared with Yucheng, the county seat of Anyu County is much smaller. The overall size seems to be less than that of Nancheng District, and the level of prosperity is obviously much different. Some parts of the city wall are obviously damaged, and there are no People mend.

Chen Mu glanced at the county wall in the distance, then looked up at the sky. Seeing that it was dark, he said, "After two days and one night of driving, I think it's better to rest for one night."

"Um."

Xu Hongyu followed behind. She didn't know what she was thinking, and she just hummed without hearing Chen Mu's words clearly.

 Chen Mu didn't care. Xu Hongyu had a cold temperament and would occasionally be in a daze. There was no change along the way, except that the number of dazes became more frequent after last night.

It was Xiao He next to him who took over the conversation and said, "Just go directly to the city. The magistrate of Anyu County is the young lady's cousin."

The seven counties under the jurisdiction of Yucheng basically have manpower from each family. Anyu County happens to be the county with the most control by the Yu family. From the county magistrate to some government offices, everyone is from the Yu family.

 A group of three people entered the county house.

Soon he was personally greeted by Xu Hongyu's cousin.

He was wearing the official uniform of a county magistrate, but his appearance was very different from what Chen Mu had imagined. He was short, fat, and had a round face. He looked like a wealthy country squire with no martial arts skills, but he walked steadily and powerfully. , obviously there is still work to be done.

 “Cousin.”

Xu Hongyu called out to Yu Rong.

Yu Rong smiled kindly and said: "How come Hongyu has time to come to An Yu... Well, I heard that you are now serving as a white-clothed guard in the Demon Slaying Department. You should be here to hunt monsters. I have asked someone to Go and prepare a room, by the way, who is this?"

 Said.

 He looked at Chen Mu on the side with a questioning expression.

He knew Xiao He, but Chen Mu had never seen him.

 “This is Lord Chen Mu Chen, the Qingyi Guard of the Demon Slayer Division, one of my own.”

Xiao He introduced me in a playful voice.

Since they were going into the city and there was no need to mobilize troops, several people now changed into civilian clothes.

Yu Rong looked at Chen Mu with slight surprise, then smiled friendly and said: "I looked unfamiliar before, but Mr. Chen can serve as a green guard at this age. He is really young and promising. He is much better than me at the beginning."

Chen Mu nodded slightly at Yu Rong. As a green-clothed guard of the Demon Slayer Division, he did not need to be polite to the county magistrate below.

but.

After Chen Mu thought for a while, he remembered something, so he raised his hand and said: "By the way, I may have to ask Mr. Yu for help with something. My mother was once a native of Anyu County. She lived in Yucheng in her early years. I don't know if there are still people in Anyu County. Blood relatives are alive.”

 As he spoke, he revealed his mother's name, Liu Ping.

In fact, he doesn't have many memories of Liu Ping. She probably passed away when Chen Yue was eight years old. It was a bit blurry because it was a long time ago. It was only when he came to Anyu County that he remembered that Liu Ping seemed to have been from Anyu County. , it seems that due to some accidents, he became a slave and lived in Yucheng, working in a squire's house.

According to some vague long-term memories, Liu Ping seemed to have been expelled from the squire's home because of her old age, and then she met Chen Mu's father, and after marrying him, they had him and Chen Yue.

Chen Yue had told him about this not long ago, mentioning that Liu Ping had always wanted to go home for a visit in her last days, but in the end she could not make the trip. Chen Mu probably understood that Liu Ping came to Yu from Anyu County. Cheng was sent away by a gang that specialized in this matter because she was a slave. It was too difficult for an ordinary woman to return to Anyu County from Yucheng.

"Okay, I'll order someone to check it out."

Yu Rong responded quickly.

Although the things that happened decades ago are a bit too long ago, and I only know one name, he is the magistrate of Anyu County after all. If you want to check, there is still something to check, but it will take some effort.

But judging from Xu Hongyu's attitude towards Chen Mu and Xiao He's reaction, Chen Mu is not an ordinary subordinate. He is also a dignified Qingyi Guard of the Demon Slayer Division. Naturally, he is worthy of his effort.

 “Then it will be troublesome for Mr. Yu.”

 Chen Mugong raised his hand.

The matter involved decades ago, and coupled with the chaos of today's world, the rosters, place of birth, etc. in many places are in a mess. This was even the case in Wutongli under his previous rule, let alone the local counties. Too much hope.

 In short, if you can find it, just look at the situation and lend a little helping hand. It can be regarded as settling the cause and effect, and also settling Chen Yue's worries. If you really can't find it, then it can only be fate.

　　 Yu family.

 “The remnants of the Heavenly Corpse Sect?”

Looking at the information sent back by Xu Hongyu, Yu Zuyi looked thoughtful.

Many years ago, when the Daxuan court was powerful and ruling the world, the emergence of the remnants of the Tianzhimen would definitely be a big deal. After the report was spread to the upper levels, there would even be state-level entities sending troops to suppress it. but now…

This world is now divided between sects, with righteous paths at odds and demonic sects competing. In the past, those demonic sects that were suppressed by the imperial court could only hide in Tibet, such as the "Xueyin Tower" and "Hehuan Sect". Now I heard that in some The prefectures and counties have all acted openly and made the divisions open to the public.

Hundreds of years ago, the Tianzhi Sect was just a member of the Demon Sect. Nowadays, there are only a few remnants. They were accidentally encountered by Xu Hongyu and some were killed. The impact was not that big, and most of the imperial court was unable to control it. , but Qixuan Sect may react to this matter. After all, Yuzhou has always been under the rule of Qixuan Sect.

 The only thing to consider is.

Should this news go through the city lord Xue Huaikong?

The Heavenly Corpse Sect has been able to hide in Yu County for so long, so there must be other forces hiding its whereabouts.

The Xue family is far more powerful than the Yu family. The Yu family has been able to pass the corpse poison jade line in the past and has some vague suspicions. It is impossible that the Xue family has not heard about it, and may even know more than the Yu family.

"Well, the Xue family should have no connection with the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect. With the power of the Xue family, there is no need to cooperate with the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect. On the contrary, the He and Xie families should be suspected."

Yu Zuyi thought for a moment.

In the end, it was decided to pass the matter through the hands of the city lord Xue Huaikong, so he left the Yu family's residence in person and went to the city lord's mansion in the inner city. After a while, a spy quietly set out from the inner city and went to the Qixuan Sect.

Anyu County Government.

Because the county magistrate is a member of the Yu family, the courtyard prepared for Chen Mu and others was not neglected. The courtyard is located behind the county house. The entire courtyard is not big, but it is clean and elegant. Every room has been decorated oil lamp.

 Chen Mu walked into the east room to check, while Xu Hongyu walked towards the west room. Xiao He glanced at Chen Mu secretly, and then followed Xu Hongyu into the west wing.

after awhile.

Chen Mu knocked on the west door.

“Chen Mu, you, you are here...”

Xiao He opened the door and said in a panic, although if Chen Mu now wants to propose marriage to the Yu family, just like Xu Hongyu's father back then, there will definitely be no resistance from the Yu family, and she sees that Xu Hongyu is also a little weird now, but tonight...it's too early.

 “What are you so worried about?”

 Chen Mu glanced at Xiao He strangely, then flicked her forehead angrily with his finger and said, "I'm here to ask how much you and Hong Yu know about the Qixuan Sect."

This time, the Tianzhimen incident was reported to Yucheng. Yucheng would probably not handle it on its own, but would definitely report it. In the past, it was reported to the state capital, that is, the Daxuan court, but now it will only be reported to the Qixuan Sect. side.

 He doesn't know much about Qixuan Sect.

Xiao He was obviously starting to have random thoughts. No matter how curious he was about how Xu Hongyu, a cold beauty, would react to being treated, it was not at this time. Moreover, Xiao He ran around during the day, looking like he wanted to be a dowry maid. As a result, when he came over, he was in a panic, his usual shrewdness was gone, which made him a little funny for a moment.

Xu Hongyu was sitting next to the sofa in the back room, her expression as usual, saying: "Qixuan Sect, the so-called Qixuan refers to the seven peaks under the sect, namely Taixuan, Shangxuan, Shaoxuan, Tianxuan, Di Xuan, Lingxuan, Zhengxuan... Each of these peaks has a peak master and a true disciple, dozens of inner sects, and hundreds of outer sects."

The overall number of people is not that large.

 Chen Mu looked thoughtful.

But compared to Yucheng, I am afraid that any of the seven peaks of Qixuan Sect is far from being comparable to the power of the entire Yu County.

"In the Qixuan Sect, there is the Deacon Hall, which is responsible for various affairs of the sect. Each deacon is a person in the viscera realm. The three families of Xue, He, Xie and my great-grandfather have all served as deacons of the Qixuan Sect."

"The status of the true disciples is slightly higher than that of the sect's deacons, but they are not responsible for affairs. Generally, they can only travel on behalf of the Qixuan Sect after crossing the five internal organs realm. The seven peak masters are also the elders of the Qixuan Sect, and they are all in the inner organs realm. existence."

 Xu Hongyu continued to state.

 “Marrow Cleansing Realm…”

Chen Mu pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Does the Qixuan Sect have any characters in the blood exchange realm?"

Xu Hongyu shook her head this time: "I don't know about this, but the Qixuan Sect occupies a state and can even ignore the Daxuan court. I guess there should be people like that."

 Speaking of which.

 There was also a hint of yearning in her eyes.

The five internal organs, the seven marrow and the eight bloods, when they reach the end, that is the ultimate state of martial arts!

Any warrior who does not yearn for the pinnacle of martial arts, but only looks at the world of Daxuan, how many people can truly reach that height? There are fallen bones on both sides of the road.

Hearing Xu Hongyu's answer, Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh at the great power of the Qixuan Sect.

After all, it is a large sect that controls a state. It has gathered almost the top resources of Yuzhou. It only supports seven true disciples and thousands of inner and outer disciples. Indeed, in any aspect, the family power in Yu County has no power at all. of comparability.

If a force standing at this level wants to deal with some of the remnants of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, it will probably be a matter of effort, unless the Heavenly Corpse Sect can return to its grand glory hundreds of years ago, but that is obviously extremely unlikely.
