Zhang Yuanqing picked up a black jade stone, and a message popped up in his vision:

[Name: Dream Jade Talisman]

[Type: Consumables]

【Function: Dream Summon】

[Introduction: A sub-prop produced by the nightmare maker, which can open a dream channel connecting to the main body.]

[Note: One day, a certain indescribable existence accidentally read a comic book called "X Dream Maker" and was inspired, so the Nightmare Maker appeared. ]

Props in the dream realm, if I remember correctly, dreams seem to be the ability of the illusionist profession. Is this Master Wuhen an illusionist? Zhang Yuanqing put away the jade talisman, looked at Xie Lingxi beside him, and said:

"Let's go."

He nodded to the beautiful woman at the elevator door:

"Excuse me, we haven't been here today, and we didn't even know this hotel existed."

The beautiful woman chuckled: "Very sensible!"

She pressed the down button of the elevator and took Zhang Yuanqing and Xie Lingxi back to the first floor.

When they got back in the car, the Wuhen Hotel behind them became farther and farther away, and finally out of sight. Xie Lingxi's tense body finally relaxed and he said:

"Brother Yuanshi, that Master Wuhen should be an illusionist of a very high level."

She took out the black jade and said with emotion:

"I don't know if I should use it if I encounter danger in the future..."

Although the Master Wuhen did not harm them, he was an evil profession after all, and people were afraid of him from the bottom of their hearts.

"When it really comes to a life-and-death crisis, we will naturally have to use it. Anyway, the result won't be worse than death," said Zhang Yuanqing.

Xie Lingxi nodded and said with some sadness:

"When I was a child, I heard from my elders that evil professions are criminals with blood on their hands, and it is not too much to be cut into pieces. But I never thought that some people who commit murder may be forced to do so for a reason. They are not born bad guys, and they also want to redeem themselves."

Zhang Yuanqing thought of Ou Xiangrong for no reason. This bewitching demon suffered cruel school bullying when he was young and had nowhere to turn to. He was left with a deep psychological trauma, which distorted his mentality and eventually led him to a path of no return.

If someone had helped him back then, perhaps there would be one less brutal villain in the world.

Of course Ou Xiangrong deserved to die, because he had completely collapsed and became cruel and bloodthirsty, but what about Gui Ruren’s father, and evil people like Gui Ruren’s father?

Zhang Yuanqing said slowly:

"Evil professions are the karmic fire of human beings themselves. You cannot change the environment or human nature. Thinking too much will only make you hate this world more and more."

Xie Lingxi looked disappointed. These words were very realistic, but also very powerless. She had thought that Brother Yuanshi would give her some chicken soup. Chicken soup was most effective at times like this because it could soothe the depression in one's heart.

Zhang Yuanqing changed the subject: "The general environment cannot be changed, but we can change ourselves. After a deeper understanding of evil professions, I believe you have understood how to deal with these groups correctly. In the future, if you encounter evil professions like Guiweiweifu, try to help them as much as possible."

Xie Lingxi smiled sweetly, and then pretended to be a weak girl, saying delicately:

"Brother Yuanshi is really amazing. Although he is young, he has his own ideas. Unlike me, I only feel sorry for them."

Looking at the delicate girl with a frail face, Zhang Yuanqing was about to speak when the speaker in his waist bag suddenly made a "sizzling" sound of electricity, followed by a low singing voice echoing in the car:

"Always looks like a weak and coward...Always looks like a weak and coward..."

Single sentence loop.

Xie Lingxi's face suddenly froze.

"Oh, this is the prop we found in the underground parking lot. It always makes strange noises." Zhang Yuanqing almost laughed out loud.

Xie Lingxi: “…”

.........

The Xie family's car took him to the gate of Kangyang District Public Security Bureau. Xie Lingxi popped his head out of the car and waved:

"Brother Yuanshi, I will be in Songhai these days. If you have time, please come and play with me."

"OK!"

Zhang Yuanqing responded casually, waved his hand, and turned to walk into the Public Security Bureau.

As he approached the glass building, he heard cheers and laughter, noisy and lively, like a party.

What's going on? Zhang Yuanqing entered the glass building with doubts. He saw that the office area was empty. The young ladies and young aunts gathered in the leisure area, surrounding Shi Chang, Guan Ya and Wang Tai in the middle.

The table was set with cakes, delicacies, drinks... it was extremely rich. Everyone was holding a wine glass or eating delicious food, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was warm.

"Oh, our hero is here, welcome everyone!"

Li Dongze looked towards the door and led the applause.

Clap, clap, clap.....warm applause filled the room, and the civil servants smiled enthusiastically.

Zhang Yuanqing's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "Are the bonuses and merits coming?"

Guan Ya nodded with a smile.

"Oh my God, God, did you hear my prayer? Yes, you must have heard it." Zhang Yuanqing's face was full of smiles and he was very excited.

Li Dongze: “….”

He tightened his grip on the cane, then finally let it go, choosing to throw himself into the party.

After the party, Zhang Yuanqing, with a round belly, went back to the second floor, lay comfortably in the office chair, and asked:

"Captain, how much are my bonuses and merits? Is there a list?"

Li Dongze looked at Guan Ya, and Guan Ya opened her pink notebook and placed it in front of Zhang Yuanqing.

Zhang Yuanqing sat up straight and looked at the laptop screen:

[Clear Sheling Tunnel: D-level merit, bonus of 50,000 (personal award).]

[Killing Ou Xiangrong: D-level merit, reward of 300,000 (team award).]

[Clear Jinshui Amusement Park: B-level merit, reward of 500,000 (personal award)]

The Sheling Tunnel is the spiritual realm for the Night Wandering God to be tested. The value behind it is that it helps the Five Elements Alliance obtain a quota for the Night Wandering God to be born in the tunnel in the future, as well as information about the revival of the Mountain Goddess.

However, because this information was used to repay a favor, the Five Elements Alliance did not actually sell it for a price and did not directly benefit, so it was awarded D-level merit.

Killing Ou Xiangrong was a team achievement, and the team was awarded a 200,000 yuan bonus. Zhang Yuanqing received 100,000 yuan, and the remaining 200,000 yuan was divided equally among the entire team, including civilian staff.

Li Dongze was very happy because the person who benefited the most from the team's merits, apart from the meritorious service, was him, the squad leader.

The more merits the team has, the greater his chances of being promoted as a squad leader.

This is why captains such as Qingteng and Bailong are so jealous of him. The more talents under his command, the greater the benefits for the captain. And a subordinate with outstanding talents can lead the captain to victory without any effort.

The B-level merit for clearing Jinshui Amusement Park is quite impressive. Theoretically, B-level merit is the limit that ordinary official practitioners can get. Even deacon-level practitioners would envy the B-level merit.

It can be said that as long as Zhang Yuanqing is promoted to level 3 Night Wanderer, he will definitely be able to become a captain.

Many Level 3 official walkers are still among the elite members and cannot be promoted due to lack of merit.

The total bonus for three meritorious services is 650,000. My God, I have never seen so much money in my life... Zhang Yuanqing's heart was pounding.

Guan Ya, who was standing beside him, patted his shoulder and said with a smile:

"You ate too much at the party today. You have to treat me tomorrow night. I'm going to rip you off."

Zhang Yuanqing glanced at her:

"Woman, who are you talking to? How dare you speak to a wealthy man worth $650,000 in such a casual tone."

"You are such a cocky guy..." Guan Ya gritted her teeth.

Li Dongze looked at this scene with a smile and said:

"The merit has been approved, and your authority has been upgraded. You can view higher-level information. You can go to the database and look it up yourself later.

"Also, your proposal to participate in the search for Hei Wuchang has been approved by Captain Fu this morning. From now on, you will follow me and Guan Ya."

Captain Fu agreed? Zhang Yuanqing was delighted.

It is indeed a pleasant thing to have a leader who appreciates you, which means that most of your requests will be granted.

Watching Li Dongze return to the office, Zhang Yuanqing touched his round belly and suddenly thought, with his current authority, could he find out the information about Master Wuhen?

He immediately opened the official database, logged into Yuanshi Tianzun's account and password, and typed in "Master Wuhen" in the search bar.

Unlike the last time when no relevant information was found, this time a piece of information popped up:

"ID: No trace of the past, illusionist in the realm of domination, C-level wanted criminal."

"Note: This person once severely injured the elder of the Red Fire Gang. He is not bloodthirsty and does not have strong hostility towards the official organization members. If you encounter this person, do not provoke him, just avoid him..."

Domination realm? Zhang Yuanqing's pupils suddenly shrank.

........

PS: I will try to update one more chapter tonight, but I may not be able to update on time at 9:30.

After sleeping for a few hours, the negative symptoms were relieved a lot. After reading everyone's chapters today, I suddenly realized the cause of headache, dizziness and vomiting. It is probably cervical spondylosis, because before that, my cervical spine hurt for a day, the kind of pain that made me sit and stand uncomfortably. There are so many talented readers, otherwise I still don't understand the cause of my illness.

I consulted a doctor friend this afternoon and he suggested that I take half an hour every day to do cervical exercises.

Having said that, I have been in serious sub-health condition in recent years, suffering from long-term lack of sleep, irregular work and rest, cervical pain, gastrointestinal discomfort, etc. When I was writing The Second Generation of Demons and the first half of Night Watchmen, I worked during the day and stayed up late to write at night. Sometimes I only slept three or four hours a day. I was young then and could endure it, but now I’m old, and the hidden dangers from those years have all erupted at once.

Everyone should exercise more, keep fit, and stay up late less. The older you get, the more you understand the importance of your health. (I'm nagging a bit, but it's a public period anyway, so it's free, haha.)
