In the afternoon of that day, Huang Yong, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, came in person.

"Li Changshi!" Huang Yong took the civil officer who called Lianhao, and a porter, picked a paint box, and sent it to the exorcist's patio. Li Jinglong was suffering from a hangover and headache, his hair was scattered, and his brows were deeply frowned. Come out to meet guests.

After the imperial examination case, Dali Temple did not dare to roll his eyes at Li Jinglong again. After all, he had contributed to the country, and he was favored by the emperor. Huang Yong smiled and became more amiable and said: "I haven't gotten up yet? This is too presumptuous , Your exorcists must go out at night to catch demons..."

"Please go inside." Li Jinglong went three poles in the day to get Hongjun back. He was about to fall apart on his stomach, and he almost couldn't open his eyes. He said tiredly, "Jinglong took the liberty. Let me change clothes..."

"You sleep!" Huang Yong said hurriedly, "This is the case transferred to you by Dali Temple, so let it go."

Li Jinglong suddenly woke up completely. Looking at the box, after a long while, Huang Yong said: "If you have something, you can talk to Lian Hao."

Even Hao hurriedly said yes, and fled like Huang Yongfei.

Li Jinglong looked shocked and opened the box, which was full of case files, with more than two hundred volumes.

When everyone woke up that day, they all looked tired. When Hongjun came out to wash, he was still singing "The spring river tide is even the sea level..." Everyone still talked about the brothel band last night.

"Go and play at night, hehehe." Qiu Yongsi said.

Ah Tai said, "I don't have much money anyway. The 3,200 taels of silver that I paid last time have not been returned to me."

"I have, I have." Hongjun said, "Let's go and buy the cherry gluten."

Morigen said, "Okay! This shop..."

"The case is investigated." Li Jinglong said with an expression of indescribability, "Still playing? Let's disband."

After lunch, Hongjun looked at the pile of files on the table, everyone was dumbfounded.

"We just found a cat." Morigen said, "As for?"

Li Jinglong threw a scroll alone and said, "This is a difficult case accumulated in Dali Temple. We will screen all of them first, and we will investigate separately tomorrow."

"Is this all related to monsters?" Hongjun asked.

"Where are so many monsters?" Qiu Yongsi smiled, "Presumably because we were favored in front of your majesty and noble concubines, we threw all our minds over those who dare not offend and the cases that cannot be handled."

Li Jinglong replied: "As long as it has nothing to do with monsters, all will be approved for'checking no monsters' and return to Dali Temple.

Hongjun glanced at the scroll in his hand and said, "Doesn't it matter if the merchant surnamed Qin died at home in the middle of the night?"

Li Jinglong took it, glanced at it, and threw it aside, saying, "It is not a monster who was murdered."

Ah Tai said: "Four slings of money disappeared at home on the second night of November..."

Qiu Yongsi laughed and replied: "It was stolen by the children in the family and spent."

"Xiao'er Ye Cry is more than a suspicion of seeing ghosts and evil..." Morigen said with another file, "I should look for the shocker, what do I do with the Exorcist?"

"The mule out of the city was frightened and ran away suspected to see a monster... Billow..." Li Jinglong just wanted to take his men and level the Dali Temple.

Hongjun picked up the scroll of the dead man and said, "What will we do if we don't check it?"

"That's the duty of Dali Temple." Li Jinglong replied, "Go back, they must check."

Hongjun said: "According to what you said, if Dali Temple can't afford to offend the murderer, wouldn't it be impossible to investigate this case?"

"Then you have to sink." Qiu Yongsi replied.

Hongjun picked up the deceased case and put it aside. Li Jinglong sighed and said, "Well, it's just idle, you can check it out."

Hongjun picked up the scroll and went out.

Morigen wanted to accompany, but Hongjun waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need it, changed his clothes and went out.

"Let's go and see." Li Jinglong fidgeted and stood up and said.

The rest of the people hurriedly said, "Long history, you go and see, Changshi, you have to go and see.

Li Jinglong: "..."

Li Jinglong sat down again, holding his arms, and said seriously: "Three, I think we need to talk in detail, do you have any misunderstandings about me taking special care of Hongjun?"

Hongjun passed through several workshops and came to Guiyi Square, where the poor in Chang'an lived. The courtyard walls were broken, the houses were next to each other, and there was still sewage in the alleys. The courtyard of a single-family house was filled with sundries sold by the merchants, and the inside was quiet. Hongjun picked up the rattles scattered on the ground, "dongdong" a few times, a young man's voice inside said: "If you like, take it, throw the money into the jar."

Hongjun pushed the door and entered, and he was greeted by a poor family in Chang'an, with paper pasted on the window and a pair of armor thrown at the door. The armor was very familiar, and it was the Dragon Martial Army armor that Li Jinglong had worn.

A young guy who looked not much older than Hongjun sat on the couch, wiped a sword in his hand, and looked up at Hongjun, with a little confusion in his eyes.

"The exorcist company." Hongjun showed his waistband and asked, "Who is the deceased trader?"

It was the first time Hongjun investigated the case and learned that the boy was named Qin Wu, 19 years old, and he happened to be a colleague with Li Jinglong.

Qin Wu put the sword in his hand aside and frowned, "Exorcist Division? Isn't it the official residence of Li Xiaowei? What are you doing here?"

Hongjun said blankly: "Isn't it the Qin surnamed goods Langkui that night, violence... has an accident happened?"

"My father was murdered." Qin Wu stood up, stared at Hongjun, and said, "It's none of your business, let's go."

Hongjun sat down on the couch and hesitated: "I will sit with you for a while."

Qin Wu said: "There is nothing to entertain you at home, is Li Xiaowei okay?"

Hongjun answered well. The two sat down for a while, Qin Wu sighed, and Hongjun asked, "Who killed him?"

"Yang family." Qin Wu said, "Yang Guozhong's second purchaser, conspired with my stepmother, strangled him at night, no way, my family is too poor."

As expected, Hongjun's mind was inseparable from Qiu Yongsi's guess. The murderer didn't dare to offend Dali Temple, so he pushed it to the Exorcist Division, which seemed to be in vain.

"What's your name?" Hongjun couldn't bear it, and asked again, "Let's go to Dali Temple again."

Qin Wu didn't answer. Instead, he looked at Hongjun and said, "I saw you on the campus outside the Dragon Martial Army that day. How did Li Xiaowei treat you?"

Hongjun didn't know why he turned to this irrelevant topic. After thinking about it, he replied, "Changshi is good."

"Yeah." Qin Wu replied, "Treasure it so that he doesn't have to worry about me."

Hongjun: "???"

Hongjun wanted to ask again, but Qin Wu stood up to see off the guests. Hongjun had to go back. Qin Wu was too calm. If it was Hongjun himself, he would never do this.

Not long after Qin Wu sent Hongjun away, the door was pushed open again. He was about to retrieve his sword. When he looked back, it was Li Jinglong who stood up suddenly. The two were silent in the dark room. At the end, Qin Wu said, "Li...Li Xiaowei..."

"When Hongjun got the case, I guessed it was yours." Li Jinglong sighed, sat down, and asked, "Where is your aunt?"

"In mourning," Qin Wu replied, "Forty-nine days, I married after the end of the seven days. Now I rent a family outside."

Li Jinglong sighed and said, "The Yang family has become so powerful these years, you can only swallow it first."

Qin Wu didn't speak, and Li Jinglong said lastly: "A colleague, I will persuade you like this. I will take this case to heart, but the time has not arrived."

"The Yang family only covers the sky with its hands, and it's a dog." Qin Wu said, "Bullying the market, occupying fertile fields, and beating women and children. To embezzle the Sixth Army and the Frontier Army's pay, how long shall I bear with them?"

Li Jinglong said: "People will have many grievances throughout their lives, but there will be a day when they will be solved. Don't think about it. I will take this case to heart, that's it."

After that, Li Jinglong got up and left. Qin Wu just stared at his back in a daze. When Li Jinglong was out, Qin Wu suddenly said: "Lieutenant Li, you are still the same as before."

"It's not the same anymore." Li Jinglong said sideways, and then left the Qin family.

The next day, a new case came again.

"How come there are so many?" Hongjun hadn't even finished reading yesterday's, and everyone was simply convinced.

Li Jinglong said: "Lian Hao! Stop it for me!"

"There is a murder case today!"

Lian Hao put down another large stack of files and ran away in a hurry. Everyone looked bored at the case, so they started shifts. In the morning, Ah Tai Morigen and Qiu Yongsi looked at the file. In the afternoon, Li Jinglong and Hongjun and the carp were sitting in town. The rest of the people went out to check the case, and all the cases that had nothing to do with monsters returned to Dali Temple.

"Qin Wu asked you." Hongjun said when he checked the case that day.

"Talk about me?" Li Jinglong said casually, casting a glance at Hongjun from the file.

Hongjun asked curiously: "Are you friends before?"

Li Jinglong replied: "That's it."

Hongjun looked into his eyes and Li Jinglong couldn't help but said: "When Little Wu entered the Dragon Martial Army, he was about the same age as you."

Li Jinglong used to serve as a lieutenant in the Dragon Martial Army, and his martial arts are still admired by his subordinates. But in the second year of joining the army, something happened, which happened to be related to Qin Wu.

"Betrayed." The carp demon said with his head buried in the case.

Li Jinglong said "Yes" and said, "Later, there was a promotion in the Dragon Martial Army. Qin Wu's family was too poor. He wanted to seize this opportunity. It was also because I got closer to my subordinates, Qin Wu backed it up. What did I say to my colleagues, even my reputation in the...

"People who are almost 20 years old are not married yet," said the carp demon. "It's hard for people not to want to be crooked because they flirt with the guy all the time."

"You..." Li Jinglong's heart was almost blocked, Hongjun hurriedly gave him a back, and asked: "What reputation is damaged? Where is it? Why can't I understand it?"

Li Jinglong stopped talking, but the carp demon couldn't help looking at Li Jinglong and asked, "Is it true?"

"How could it be true?" Li Jinglong said, "I am innocent, and I have done nothing against him!"

Although they were all young men when they were in the army, there are even more handsome children in the Sixth Army. It is natural for the young men who have never married to get close. But those who are in the military should take martial arts as their top priority. Being a soldier is a responsibility. At a critical moment, it is necessary to hold weapons and die for the country.

On weekdays, the Dragon Martial Army is right under the eyes of the emperor, and must not make trouble. Training, competition, and competition, as large as the hunting with the emperor, as small as the routine exercises of the first and fifteenth grades of each team. According to the actual operation rating, those who cannot keep up will be insulted and ridiculed. Under the big sun, he was wearing armor and stood for four hours.

At this level of intensity, return to the camp every day and fall asleep immediately. How can have the strength to do it? Once the whole team is dragged down, at midnight, can't say that can't be beaten by colleagues under the head. If there is news of broken sleeves, it will definitely drag the whole team and become the laughing stock of the whole ar.

It happened that Qin Wu had been rigorously trained by Li Jinglong, and he felt a little uneasy. Besides, he wanted to be promoted and squeezed Li Jinglong down, so he broke out. It happened to be at the age of eighteen, so brotherhood and marriage were all lost.

"What a hatred is this!" Hongjun realized that what Qin Wu said today should be guilty. According to Li Jinglong, Qin Wu was also promoted later. After Hu Sheng heard the rumors, he transferred him to another team. In the days that followed, Li Jinglong’s soldiers would be indifferent to him. .

Li Jinglong replied: "Finally, it is my fault to talk shallowly."

"Hey--?" The carp demon seemed to have heard something, and the whole fish suddenly became alert and looked at Li Jinglong.

When he said this, Li Jinglong couldn't help but look at Hongjun again, but Hongjun was still aggrieved about the matter. But based on what Hongjun knew and heard, he would not have thought so much.

"Then do you like Qin Wu?" Hongjun asked again.

"I don't like it." Li Jinglong said straightforwardly, "It's just because he is young, and...and...and..."

Li Jinglong lowered his head and muttered to himself: "I have a poor family, so I took care of it specially. You don't have to complain for me. I have already seen this matter. Now I have come to the Exorcist Division, everyone is like a fish in water. Naturally, I won’t take it anymore."

Hongjun thought for a while, and finally said: "Oh."

Li Jinglong pondered for a moment, and when he looked up at Hongjun, Hongjun turned and said to the carp demon: "I thought that only between male and female can ‘that’. It turns out that male and male can also be ‘that’."

Carp demon: "..."

Li Jinglong: "..."

Carp demon: "But the male and male ‘that’ can’t give birth to children, so I don’t and the male ‘that’.”

"How did you fish'that'?" Hongjun was very curious.

The more he said this, the more embarrassing he got. Li Jinglong just wanted to find something to turn off. The carp demon said again, "Don't worry about it. You know what so many do? But then again, I really like it. The way, some love'this', some love'that', the world is all-encompassing, even if Li Changshi loves men, there is no need for others to worry about eating carrots. By the way, Hongjun? Before you Don't you like that little fox too?"

"I don't like him!" Hongjun said, "I just think he is pathetic."

Li Jinglong immediately picked up the scroll and threw it to Hongjun, ending the topic, saying, "Look at it."

The fifth day of November in the twelfth year of Tianbao.

The Exorcist Case: Caravan was killed (homicide case).

Difficulty: Herringbone

Area: Pingheliang

Involved in the case: Western Regions Qiuci Caravan 22

Facts: On the 5th day of November, the Qiuci caravan passed through Pingheliang, a branch of the Qinling Mountains, and was attacked in the afternoon. Twelve people in the team were slaughtered. The murderer was unknown and suspected of being a monster. They were transferred to the Great Tang Exorcist Department for handling.

Remuneration: Merchant from Kucha, Han Guolan, the ambassador to Chang'an, thanks for the interview.

"Look at it."

"It's too late, tomorrow." Li Jinglong said.

The dusk was heavy and the autumn night was cold, and the three of Morigen had also returned, and everyone sat down to eat and began to exchange information.

"Where did you go to play again?" Li Jinglong asked calmly when everyone couldn't eat.

"I've encountered a wife murder case." Morigen frowned, drank a cup of water, and said, "The blacksmith and his wife quarreled and used a chisel and a hammer to hammer people alive. That brain splattered. ...On the wall, on the couch..."

"Stop it!" Qiu Yongsi and Ah Tai immediately stopped Morigen from repeating the process, but they finally forgot.

Hongjun was drinking a bowl of crab soup, without interference. Ah Tai said: "There is another case. It was a patient with a cough due to wind-heat. See the doctor. The doctor was a barefoot doctor. He bleeded him and put the person to death. The doctor escaped, and his family members were outside the Chunlin Hall, carrying the coffin. It's troublesome."

"Yeah." Li Jinglong was still thinking about the attack on the caravan, and asked, "What else do you know?"

"From the beginning of the month to the present, there are only a few homicides," Ah Tai said.

"From the beginning of November to now, have so many murders happened?!" Li Jinglong put down his chopsticks and asked.

Morigen replied: "I don't know if there were frequent homicides in Chang'an in the past. This is not normal?"

Qiu Yongsi said: "Correct a little. These murders happened yesterday and today."

"Three in two days, including the caravan, fourteen people died." Li Jinglong frowned, "So serious?"

Ah Tai: "Don't forget, the Demon King still doesn't know where to hide."

Hongjun: "Is this a provocation?"

Li Jinglong took a deep breath, wrinkled his brows again, did not answer, and signaled everyone to go to bed first and go out to investigate the case tomorrow morning.

In the middle of the night, Hongjun squatted by the well to rinse his mouth, and the carp monster emerged from the pond and said, "Hongjun."

Hongjun turned his head, raised his brow, and said if he had something to say.

Demon Carp: "Have you ever met someone you want to spend your life with?"

"What do you mean?" Hongjun rinsed his mouth and sat by the pond.

"That's why you want to be with her all your life, never want to jump into the dragon's door anymore, stay together forever, and when she dies, you also want to be with her." The carp demon said with a closed mouth, and said in surprise.

"Yes." Hongjun smiled.

"Who?" asked the carp demon.

Hongjun: "Father, Qingxiong."

The carp demon said: "That's not what I meant, forget it."

The carp demon wants to go back to sleep, but Hongjun grabbed it by its tail, dragged it out, and asked, "What's the matter? You tell me."

The carp demon said: "It's just that you want to be with her from time to time. When you're around her, you always feel at ease in everything you can't say, and you don't have to think about anything..."

Hongjun replied: "Li Changshi."

Carp Demon: "I Pooh!"

Hongjun replied: "Long history is always very reliable, and the people are also very nice. Just leave everything to him, right? Zhao Zilong, what's the matter with you? It always feels weird today."

The carp demon said: "I am in love with a koi."

"Huh?" Hongjun asked, "What do you mean?"

"I want to get married with her," said the carp demon, "I will never separate."

"Aren't you going to jump the dragon gate?" Hongjun asked in surprise, "Don't jump anymore?"

The carp demon put one hand on the poolside, holding the fish's head, vomiting two bubbles, and said, "That's just to comfort yourself. In life, there must be a thought, right? Even this thought will never be reached. ?"

Hongjun scratched his head and asked: "What does love mean?"

"Oh, you don't understand." The carp demon dived into the water, looked up at Hongjun from the bottom of the water, and stopped talking.

Hongjun was about to fish it up and continued to ask, but there was a sudden knock on the door outside. When the door was opened, a man covered in blood suddenly rushed in, and said in a trembled voice: "Save me...Save me... Captain... I'm sorry you... Save me..."

"Qin Wu?!" Hongjun was shocked.
