Since they had invited him, Zhou Qing naturally couldn't refuse, so he immediately followed the man to the Department of Ghosts and Gods.

There is also no means for them to communicate with each other remotely, otherwise there would be no need for people from the Ghost and God Bureau to come in person to invite them, they could just contact them remotely.

Speaking of this, we have to mention Transsion Snail.

In Zhongtian City, there is no way to contact Lu Qingmo using the snail because the distance is too far.

Not only that, after leaving Tianyue County, Zhou Qing has been contacting Lu Qingmo frequently to test the scope of use of the sound transmission snail.

When I was in Tianhai County, I could still contact Lu Qingmo, but once I left Tianhai, there was no way and the contact was cut off.

Judging from this attempt, the "signal" coverage range of Transsion Snail is about two counties.

Within Tianzhou, Tianhai County is larger, while Tianyue County is of normal size.

The two counties are big when you say they are big, but small when you say they are small.

At least after Bai Ruoyue goes to Yujing and Lu Qingmo returns to Xuandu Temple, the idea of ​​frequently "calling" them will no longer be realized.

But there is also good news. Compared with the first time we got the sound-transmitting snail, both the mother snail and the three offspring have grown a little bigger.

This shows that the growth potential of Transsion Snail is indeed real, and Brother Shu was not fooling him.

If there is enough time, it is possible for the signal of the sound transmission snail to cover the entire world.

It's just that this growth rate seems a bit slow. By the time the whole world is covered, Zhou Qing might have already...

And the possibility of dividing into more sub-bodies still seems to be a long way off.

Zhou Qing also tried to actively cultivate snails to accelerate their growth, but after various attempts, it still didn't work.

True Qi is useless, soul power is useless, spiritual plants and elixirs are useless, and metal and flesh are useless.

Zhou Qing tried everything he could get, but the Voice Transmission Snail was completely indifferent.

It seemed as if he could only grow slowly and passively, which made Zhou Qing extremely helpless.

Arriving at the Ghost and God Department, Zhou Qing walked alone to Qin Duguan's "office".

After asking for permission, he opened the door and prepared to go in, but the next moment, a piercing edge approached, extremely sharp.

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up, and instead of retreating, he advanced, a look of joy appearing on his face. He raised one hand and grasped the sharp edge that was coming towards him.

He held in his hand a long sword that looked exactly like the previous [Taibai], except that there was a red mark the size of a mung bean on the hilt, and a sense of blood connection suddenly came to him.

The long sword rang softly and flashed with cold light, as if it was jumping, as if responding to Zhou Qing's tight grip.

“Nice sword!”

Zhou Qing shouted softly, and in an instant he understood the many changes of [Taibai]. The grade of this sword had been greatly improved. Compared with the previous one, the difference in all aspects of this sword was like heaven and earth, and it was no exaggeration.

He even felt that he could now cut off the previous [Taibai] with one sword.

A wisp of true energy flowed into the sword, and suddenly a sharp sword light flashed, and sword energy burst out.

Seeing Zhou Qing feeling the upgraded weapon, Qin Duguan smiled and said:

"I am a top-grade Yuanwu soldier. I have lived up to your expectations. Finally, I will not be complained by that girl."

"Thank you, Tuguan."

Zhou Qing put away the sword and thanked the master weaponsmith solemnly.

In just a few days, he completed the casting of a top-grade Yuanwu weapon, worthy of being a dual-level master of Yin Shen and Zhenxue realms.

This is faster than Master Yuan in Tianyue City forging weapons.

There is also a gap between masters.

"You also went to the trade fair yesterday and today, right?" asked Qin Duguan:

"What did you gain?"

"It's a big harvest." Zhou Qing nodded.

But Manager Qin shook his head and said, "I told you that if you need anything, I can help you, but you never told me."

"It is enough to get this Yuanwu weapon. I dare not ask for too much."

Sometimes Zhou Qing is very content and only asks for what he deserves.

At two consecutive trade fairs, top-grade Yuanwu soldiers were auctioned and traded. Zhou Qing was present and knew the price very well.

If he took the weapon-making materials given to Qin Duguan and tried to buy top-grade Yuanwu weapons at the trade fair, there would be no hope.

The basic weapon refining materials must be doubled or even more valuable to be eligible to compete.

It was already a big help that Qin Duguan helped him to forge weapons. If he asked him to pay for things for him at the trade fair, it would be too greedy.

The relationship between the two parties is not that good, and it is only established because of Lu Qingmo.

Zhou Qing had no psychological burden using Lu Qingmo's supplementary gold card.

What belongs to Aunt Mo is his, and what belongs to him is Aunt Mo's. What's wrong with spending his own money?

But Qin is in charge, so forget it.

After hearing Zhou Qing's words, Manager Qin shook his head, but he felt a bit of admiration in his heart.

He is talented and knows his limits. He is indeed a good young man.

I just don't know what other aspects of his character are like, and whether they are worthy of that girl's attention...

Manager Qin thought for a moment and said to Zhou Qing:

"Do you have some free time tonight?"

Zhou Qing was stunned, thought for a while, and made sure that there was nothing he had to do tonight.

Whether it is practicing Taoism or martial arts, or anything else, there is no rush.

After all, the placement bar is always there and running at full power.

"I have time." Zhou Qing said, "Does Qin Duguan have other things to do?"

"Do you remember what I said when we met last time?" Qin Duguan said with a smile:

"Of course I remember." Zhou Qing said without hesitation:

"If there's anything you need me to do, just go ahead and arrange it."

These were just a few tasks from the Department of Ghosts and Gods. Zhou Qing was confident that they would not be difficult for him.

If Manager Qin assigned him a task that he couldn't complete with his current strength, then Zhou Qing would have reason to suspect that this person's relationship with Lu Qingmo's lineage might not be as good as it seemed.

But based on the current situation, this is basically impossible.

"There is one thing I need to trouble you with."

Manager Qin picked up a piece of paper from the table and handed it to Zhou Qing.

"This is something that someone below just reported to me before you came. I haven't had time to arrange for someone to handle it yet."

"Since you happened to be here, why don't you handle it? It's getting late, and it's not easy to find other people."

Zhou Qing took the paper without changing his expression, but he was complaining in his heart.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

How come I didn’t know that the Ghost and God Department had time to get off work?

Lu Qingmo told him that according to the rules, all the ghost and god departments in Da Qi have no rest time.

There are twelve hours in a day. It's okay if there are no missions. But once something happens, we have to go out immediately to solve the problem regardless of day or night, including the headquarters of the Ghost and God Department in Yujing.

Of course, although the rules are like this, it is people who implement the rules after all, so omissions are inevitable.

In some remote small counties, the staff of the Department of Ghosts and Gods are lazy and don't work together.

But this is the State Ghost and God Bureau, such a thing would never happen there, there must be personnel on duty at all times.

But Zhou Qing didn't say anything. It was just a task. Since he happened to be here, it was normal to let him solve it temporarily.

In addition to the piece of paper, Manager Qin handed over another token.

"With this token, you can freely enter and leave Zhongtian City at night, and you can also temporarily recruit the night patrol guards in the city."

Zhou Qing took the token and nodded to Manager Qin.

"It's all under control. I'll go and take care of it then."

Since they told him to go and it was inconvenient to call other people, there was no doubt that they meant to let him go alone.

"Go ahead, and be careful."

Zhou Qing turned and left. After leaving the room, he immediately picked up the paper in his hand to see what the task was that needed to be reported to the governor of the state.

Not every incident is qualified to be sent here. Some minor matters are handled by the subordinates themselves. It is considered incompetence to disturb them.

This is how Lu Qingmo managed the Department of Ghosts and Gods in Heiyun Town.

Any incident that comes to the chief steward's desk is either major or special.

"Outside the city, northwest of Xiaowangzhuang, seventy-six miles away..."

After reading all the information, Zhou Qing fell into thought.

This incident seems somewhat ordinary.

It was probably that there was a suspected vicious incident of monster cannibalism in Xiaowangzhuang outside the city, and the personnel from the Department of Ghosts and Gods needed to investigate and deal with it.

There were two victims, a pair of sisters. They left home this morning and, contrary to their usual behavior, did not return all day. Their family members went out to look for them, but in the end they only found a few pieces of bloody clothes and... flesh and blood. There were also footprints of animals left at the scene.

Then the matter came to the Department of Ghosts and Gods.

Because it is impossible for wild beasts to appear near Zhongtian City, not to mention that the pair of sisters died in Xiaowangzhuang. If it was done by wild beasts, it would have alarmed other people long ago.

Therefore, it can only be the work of a demon or a cultivator who tames beasts. Such matters will definitely be handled by the Department of Ghosts and Gods.

It is not uncommon for demons to eat humans.

Some monsters, when they first gain intelligence, will instinctively desire the flesh and blood of humans.

Not to mention the monsters that have just gained intelligence, even among the old monsters there are many man-eaters.

Therefore, it was indeed a great achievement that the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was able to keep the demon tribe out of Shanhaiguan and establish diplomatic relations with the Phoenix tribe, thus avoiding the occurrence of large-scale demon beast waves and saving the people from the disasters caused by demons.

Otherwise, the area where the Eastern Zhou Dynasty meets the mountains and seas would have been devastated long ago.

As Zhou Qing walked, he carefully looked at the paper with the task recorded on it, feeling somewhat confused.

A murder case is indeed not a small matter, but to say that it alarmed the entire state...

Although the truth may be cruel to tell, in fact, such a thing is unlikely to be brought to the attention of Qin Duguan.

It's not very likely to let him handle it.

Therefore, if Qin Duguan had not been extremely conscientious and had not done everything personally, no matter how big or small, then there would probably be something fishy about this case.

In addition to recording the entire story of the case, the paper also provides an introduction to Xiaowangzhuang.

It is a relatively wealthy manor, which is not surprising. The only point worth noting is that the person in charge of Xiaowang Manor is somewhat unusual.

He turned out to be a retired border soldier, and he had held a position in the border army, although it was not a high one.

Part of Da Qi's territory borders the prairie in the north. The barbarians from the prairie often invade Da Qi and try to plunder Da Qi's territory.

Therefore, Da Qi had a large number of troops stationed on the border to protect the peace of the territory.

The border troops are all brave and valiant, and those who can lead them must be warriors.

The leader of Xiaowangzhuang returned to his hometown after retiring from the border army, rejected the invitation from Zhongtian City, and chose to lead Xiaowangzhuang. He developed the village where he was born very well, so that every household had no worries about food and clothing.

It can be said that he is a very nice person.

However, this retired frontier soldier is quite good, but unfortunately...

Looking at the various information about Xiaowangzhuang, Zhou Qing felt a little confused. Everything had to wait until he got to the scene.

A BMW was galloping freely in Zhongtian City like an arrow shot from a bow.
