Chapter 63: Tracing

"Master," Xia Fan frowned and said. He knew that if he didn't say it at this

time, he would never have the opportunity to say it again. "Will the evil

creatures of Gaoshan County appear too weird?"

"Do you mean that two ghosts suddenly appeared."

"Exactly! As far as the Xiaguan knows, this is probably an abnormal death in

Gaoshan County, and more than one or two, otherwise such a powerful evil will

not be formed!" He decided to put it in the end, "If we can know this in

advance In a situation, if you make preparations early, the team leader and

Yue Feng will not lose their lives!"

"I understand your unwillingness, but this is the mission of the alchemist.

The Privy Council only targets evil agents. Now that evil agents have been

eliminated, the task is completed for this palace." After a pause, "not to

mention the abnormal death you said. It’s just a guess. Gaoshan County has

four villages, with large fields on the west and dense mountains on the east.

No matter what accidents happen, it’s normal. You think that a magistrate

alone can control everything. ?"

Xia Fan hesitated, "No."

"Yes, no." Yuan engaged in a sigh. "The refugees, bandits, pirates, monsters,

these things create tragedies all the time, and we can only take action on the

last one. Dealing with evil is full of itself. After all the variables, if you

want to be truly foolproof, you can only improve your resilience and magic

skills."

"In other words, does the Privy Council only eliminate evils that have already

appeared?"

"Otherwise, what else? Settling the refugees and eliminating bandits is

something that the government needs to deal with. Do you still want to put

your hands in the sixth department of the imperial court?" The other party's

tone has vaguely become impatient, "We are almost caught by those scholars.

Seen as a new hidden danger after the foreign court and anti-smuggling guards,

it is better to not intervene in matters that are not in your own

responsibility. Taking a step back, even if there are abnormal deaths you

mentioned, it should be dealt with by the local magistrate. Go on. Right!"

Xia Fan had to leave the headquarters lobby.

Wei Wushuang and others are waiting for him outside.

"How is it, did the professional adult say something?" When he came out, his

fellow villagers immediately greeted him. "I felt that the pressure in front

of him was so heavy, I just said what I was thinking in my head, and I

couldn't even cover up. To."

Xia Fan shook his head, "That's it for this matter."

"Huh..." Wei Wushuang let out a sigh, "I said, Brother Xia, you think too

much. If there is such a thing as you said, the locals should always reveal

something, right? I think Gaoshan County is pretty good. Peaceful and

peaceful..."

"You know what a fart! Anning? Peaceful enough to run out of two ghosts?" Wang

Renzhi sipped to the ground-Luo Youer was not there, and he seemed too lazy to

maintain the image of his son, "If it weren't for Laozi's life," I lost it

this time! If nothing else, there is definitely something wrong with Gaoshan

County!"

"But wasn't you the only one who asked the county citizens? It would be a

waste of seven or eight people, and the county would not move at all?" After a

week of getting along with him, Wei Wushuang has gradually been able to get

back and forth with the Prince. Yuangui killed two people and they were

talking in the streets and alleys, but no one mentioned any grievances

recently."

"That might also be caused by a thief on the mountain."

"The premise is that someone in the county is missing. Compared to an abnormal

death, the disappearance is also a big event, not to mention whether there are

bandits near Gaoshan County."

"The veto is so fast, you think of a reason for me! Those two ghosts can't

always come out of the cracks in the rock?"

"Prince Prince, you are embarrassing me too much."

"Shut up if you can't think of it, the risk that this son takes for no reason,

someone has to come out to be responsible!"

"Stop arguing!" Xia Fan said annoyed.

Wei Wushuang is okay, Wang Renzhi rarely refutes, "I'm not looking for the

culprit..."

"What are you going to do?" Shangguan Cai said, who had been watching coldly.

Xia Fan was silent.

From the lobby of the headquarters, the scene that he saw at the entrance of

the Xue family compound always unconsciously appeared in his mind.

There were six abnormal incidents in three years, and the county residents

begged not to let the Privy Council interfere in the incident.

and after he chased up with the money, the other party first showed disgust

until it turned into an expression of disbelief.

Where is the problem?

As alchemists who eliminate evil, shouldn't they be respected and loved?

No... they do have reasons for disgust.

Because the alchemist has never really cut off evil.

at least not in Takayama Prefecture.

Is it really just a coincidence that evil spirits appear so frequently here?

After a long time, he replied, "I plan to go to Gaoshan County again."

"Brother Xia..." Wei Wushuang showed worry.

"I'll go with you!" Wang Renzhi suddenly came to his mind, "Anyway, I have a

three-day holiday. If this matter is not investigated, I will write it

backwards! I have a hunch that this matter will become a world-famous thing.

starting point!"

"Hey... if that's the case, then I will go too." The fellow scratched his

head, "Although I can't do much."

"What about you?" Xia Fan looked at the official Cai.

"To be honest, I am not very interested." She shrugged, "But I still like that

little girl-if I can find out what caused this evil incident, I can go there."

Seeing that everyone was willing to go, Xia Fan couldn't help but feel a

little more confident, "Then it should not be too late, we will meet at the

gate of the Privy Council in half an hour!"

……

When he returned to his residence, Li was already waiting for him at home.

"Sorry, I left you back and forth alone," Xia Fan said hello and began to pack

the package, "I am going to Gaoshan County again. There is no threat of evil

this time. Just wait for me here."

"Don't go." Li shook his head.

"...what?" Xia Fan unexpectedly stopped working in his hands-it was the first

time that he heard such a clear dissuasion from the other party.

"Stop looking into this matter," she repeated, "it will not do you any good."

"Do you... do you know something?" Xia Fan asked in surprise.

"The Privy Council thinks this matter should end here, right?"

"Yes."

"I don't know the situation in Gaoshan County, but I know the Privy Council."

Li lowered his ears. "Master once said that everything they do has a reason,

and no one is allowed to question it. Although it is not here. Yuan, but I

don’t think it will make a big difference. Since they think this matter is

over~www.mtlnovel.com~, you'd better do what they want."

"But I just want to figure out what is going on."

"How can you figure it out?" Li seemed impatient. "There are only two results.

Either you can't get the answer, or you can't accept the answer. Either way,

it's worse than not knowing. \-Because you cannot change the status quo."

Xia Fan couldn't help raising his eyebrows. He didn't expect the fox demon to

say such words.

"I thought you never cared about authority."

"It's not because of--" Li paused in the middle of speaking, "Because... it

might interfere with the rescue of my master."

"I didn't plan to confront the Privy Council. You thought about going there."

Xia Fan laughed blankly. "If there is anything to be found, I don't

necessarily have to solve the problem through the Privy Council. There is the

State Shepherd House."

"Are you going to report to the official?"

"You don't even need to go by yourself. The Privy Council is not easy to

intervene, and the government will never turn a blind eye to this case,

right?" Xia Fan looked straight into the other's pale golden eyes,

"Furthermore, if you haven't even touched the facts, how can you Know if you

can change? You should understand this truth best.

"I?"

He grinned, "If you didn't choose to cooperate with me, you won't find that

the fox demon and the alchemist can live together."

This time Li was silent for a long time, and finally she sighed helplessly,

and then picked up her things, "I know, but I want to go together."

"Are you sure? This time the main purpose is to trace the source of the evil,

and there will be no danger."

"Who knows." Li looked to the west noncommittal and said in a voice that only

he could hear, "Evil is never the most terrifying thing..."
