I have been slaying demons in the Demon Slayer Division for thirty years

Meridian Gate.

The huge crowds of people fully reflect the lively nature of the people in Kyoto.

Directly in front are the officials and the royal family headed by the Prince of the Supervisory State. Since his rejuvenation, the number of public appearances of the Prince has obviously increased.

Emperor Jingtai did not show up, and was focused on cultivating Taoism in Wanshou Palace.

The sacrifice of prisoners at the Meridian Gate was a level worse than the sacrifice of prisoners at the Imperial Ancestral Temple. Emperor Jingtai had experienced it many times and no longer cared about it.

Zhou Yi and others mingled among the crowd, clasping their hands, stretching their necks, drifting with the crowd, no different from ordinary people.

It was noon.

The first to enter the city were the cavalry with black cavalry and black armor, led by the veteran general Gongsun Qi.

Gongsun Qi was the Duke of Zhuguo who was conferred by the late emperor. Xu Fengxian, who was once promoted by his Majesty, was known as holding up the sky and holding the sea.

After Qianqi passed by, a series of stainless steel prison cars were escorted.

When hundreds of prison cars passed by, they stopped in the square one by one to admire the prisoners. A steward followed the first prison car and began to read out the evidence of guilt.

"The Wuding demon monk serves as the envoy of the White Lotus Demon Sect, bewitching the people and killing the common people..."

After the charges were read out, the prince was asked to behead him.

"allow!"

As soon as the voice fell, two god-refining monks took Wuding Yao Monk down and killed him with a knife in front of the people.

Zhou Yi always pays attention to the atmosphere in the field, and it turns out that he is not a demon monk without determination, but a demon in the Qi Refining Realm covered by illusion.

"It is indeed customary! Killing in public is just a matter of hiding it from ordinary people. The god-refining monks can see through it at a glance."

Zhou Yi counted them one by one and captured seven upper-level third-level demons alive, six were third-level demons, and only Wuding was a second-level demon.

Only two first-level warriors participated in the rebellion in Northern Xinjiang. The great wizard Yanhe from the Beirong barbarian tribe died in the siege and massacre by the Immortal Bureau, the Demon Lord Yaksha fled to the outside world, and the remaining refining gods did not exceed twenty.

General Gongsun was able to capture seven alive, which is an astonishing ratio.

"Seven of you, here comes another immortal weapon, some earth-shattering Tiangang supernatural powers! Suck away..."

Zhou Yi has placed six clones in the prison, transformed into six executed prisoners, distributed in departments A, B, and C.

You can practice fifty years of Taoism every day, and with the escape of the deity, you can kill seven upper-level third-level demons.

After that, every day at the prison time, Zhouyi would wait early.

Ten days have passed and there is no Jiazi Prison mission.

One month passed and still nothing.

One season passed in a blink of an eye, and Zhou Yi was completely desperate.

"My magical weapon is gone?"

Fortunately, after 4,500 years of Taoism growth, his magic power was about to exceed 20,000 years, so he could barely soothe his injured heart.

During this period, Zhou Yi visited more than a dozen god-refining experts, participated in several gatherings, and initially integrated into the circle of monks.

…

Zhuangyuan Hall.

When you enter the door, you first see Yan Chixiao on the left and Qin Qiong on the right, who are majestic.

There is no rule among Daqian scholars not to talk about strange things and disturb spirits.

Zhou Yi recognized it at a glance. It was an authentic work by Zhang Cheng, and it was rumored that its value had reached thousands of taels.

Shopkeeper He greeted him with a happy face: "Mr. Zhou, you are finally here!"

Originally, there was a description of the realm of cultivation in the Demon Searching Record.

Shopkeeper He reads it every day, and now his knowledge is not just ordinary. He then deliberately inquires about the students of Jixia Academy, and he knows a lot about the world of cultivation.

When he learned that Zhou Yi was a new god-refiner, the traveler said that the latest version of the girdle was fair and square, and he named it "the work of gods".

After asking about it in many bookstores, they no longer dared to pirate copies unscrupulously. Anyway, Lu Tiancheng's revised version sold best, so why bother with the gods.

"Fortunately, I have finally finished writing."

The Book of Changes has stopped selling Taoist scriptures for a long time. The reason why I came here today is to search for demon records. After several revisions, it finally meets the conditions for publication.

One hundred and eighty pages, with more than 300 kinds of ninth-level to sixth-level monsters drawn on both sides of each page.

Each type of monster recorded on the page has three or five sentences explaining its weaknesses, as well as what is obtained after hunting, which part is beneficial to eat, how much it is worth, etc.

There are more than fifty pages, all of which record methods of hunting monsters, including but not limited to various traps, poisoning with bait, beatings and sneak attacks...

"As a result, the appeal is greatly increased, and the printing cost is reduced to less than 500 yuan."

Shopkeeper He said: "If it is printed on rough paper, one or two hundred words will be enough."

The rough paper that Shopkeeper He mentioned was books pirated by other bookstores. He understood what Zhou Yi wanted and spread the book as much as possible.

"It would be great."

Zhou Yi reluctantly took out a stack of redemption tickets and handed them to Shopkeeper He.

"Please use Guitang's channels to send 50,000 copies of Monster Searching Records to various villages and towns."

Zhuangyuantang has bookstores in several states, and 50,000 taels are enough to deliver to every village and town. Zhou Yi made this decision after careful consideration for several days.

To make the already poor family even worse, they have to drink peach leaves to satisfy their hunger again tonight.

"Mr. Zhou is a kind man, but it's a pity that Zhuangyuan Hall can't do anything. Now it's getting more and more chaotic outside. Except for the bookstores around Luojing, others are closing one after another."

Shopkeeper He returned the banknote and said: "A few days ago, the team transporting books in Xiangxian County was robbed by bandits."

Xiang County is located in Luozhou, and it can be said that it is at the feet of the emperor.

"My boss invited experts from the Qinghong Sword Sect to go to Xiangxian County to retrieve the books, but when they arrived at the bandits' den, they found that they were villagers down the mountain who couldn't afford to eat."

"Those carts of books have been used as firewood by the bandits. Even if they capture and sell them all, they won't be able to make enough money."

"In the end, the owner's book was gone, and it cost money to hire experts. In the end, the villagers were compensated with several carts of rice and noodles."

Zhou Yi frowned slightly. In recent days, he had been waiting for the seven demons, or he was revising the demon search records, and he was not very familiar with the situation outside Luojing.

The clones killed demons from all over the place, but they heard about some disasters such as drought and floods.

Daqian covers a vast area, and there are droughts and floods every year. Without careful comparison, it is difficult to say whether there are more or less than in previous years.

"Mr. Zhou, please step inside."

Shopkeeper He came to the corner and whispered: "Sir, I don't know something. Since the war in Northern Xinjiang stopped, the outside is getting more and more chaotic every day."

"I heard, I heard, that the evil demons who originally rebelled in northern Xinjiang were broken into pieces and went around doing evil..."

Zhou Yi finalized the publication of the Monster Search Record and left Zhuangyuan Hall with a lot of worries.

…

The entrance of Qingfeng Xiaozhu.

Bai Xingye paced back and forth anxiously, asking Mao Jiu who was squatting by the door from time to time.

"Cat Master, when will Mr. Zhou come back?"

"ah--"

When Mao Jiu heard the word "Great Immortal", he looked extremely comfortable, wishing that Bai Xingye would not listen.

"Come on, Zhang Cheng hasn't been here these days. Sir, he will go home after his shift. What name did you just call me?"

"Cat Fairy, Cat Fairy, Fairy Cat..."

Bai Xingye figured out Mao Jiu's temperament with just a few words and barked more than a dozen times in a row.

"ah--"

Mao Jiu felt dizzy, her legs were weak, and she was in a state of ecstasy.

Luo Li, who was practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard, couldn't bear to see Mao Jiu's embarrassing appearance, so he covered his eyes with a black scarf and continued practicing swordsmanship.

When Zhou Yi saw Bai Xingye, the clouds fell.

"Mr. Bai came to visit, but what happened?"

"Mr. Zhou, I beg you to help the Bai family."

Bai Xingye's legs went weak and he was about to kneel down. Zhou Yi quickly used his magic to help him up.

"What on earth happened?"

Bai Xingye took a breath and told the reason, which turned out to be related to Zhang Cheng who had not returned from the trip.

A month ago, Bai Yutang and Li Hongling went to Xiang County to investigate the case, but they did not return for half a month.

The six gates sent arresters to look for him, but they also disappeared. They realized something was wrong and reported the matter to the Demon Slayer Division.

The Bai family and the Hou family couldn't wait for the Demon Slayer Division to investigate, so they sent experts to investigate and asked Zhang Cheng to help.

Zhang Cheng couldn't sit idly by when his disciple disappeared, so he asked for leave and went to Xiangxian County, but he never returned.

"Senior Zhang failed to come back. No one from the Demon Slaying Department took over the matter. Prince Yan's Mansion said that Senior Qin Qiong was in seclusion. I had no other choice but to ask Mr. Zhou Zhou."

Bai Xingye said: "I don't ask for Mr. Zhou's help. I just ask for help in contacting a few experts. The Bai family is willing to give everything."

Zhou Yi thought for a moment and said, "Without further delay, I will go to Xiangxian County."

Moo——

The sacred cow connected with him and stepped out of the yard.

Mao Jiu jumped and landed on the forehead of the sacred cow, but was caught by Zhou Yi's neck and returned to the yard.

"My mother said, wherever the immortal goes, I will go!"

"You and Luo Li are looking after the house. You'll be back in a few days."

When Zhou Yi sat down, the sacred cow disappeared in a few steps.
