"Master, what should we do next?" After paying respects to the Mountain Goddess, the two were supposed to leave, but Wang Qing noticed that her mother hadn't moved at all.
"Qingqing, this place is quite nice. It's also a place protected by the Mountain Goddess. Let's live here from now on." Wang Wan had already made up her mind.
She has traveled the world for many years in order to catch demons, and most of the demons she has encountered are evil spirits that harm people's lives. There are not many demons with their own consciousness, and even fewer that can overcome their instincts and have good intentions.
There are many strange people living in this world, with different abilities and very peculiar origins.
So far, the world appears "peaceful," but who knows what will happen next?
Evil spirits can never be completely eradicated; new evil spirits will always be born. We can't keep chasing after them forever, can we?
Moreover, Wang Wan admitted that there were many powerful demons lurking in the shadows that she and her child's father could not deal with together, and that senior brother was also unable to deal with them.
The only solution is to find something that can subdue these evil spirits.
Now that she has found the true god who was born not long ago, why is she leaving?
"Master, is what you're saying true? Can we really live here?" Wang Qing's eyes lit up even more.
She thought this place was very fun. If it weren't for her master helping her catch demons and practice martial arts, she would have accepted the magistrate's invitation long ago.
Going to be a demon hunter in a desolate county as the county magistrate sounds like fun!
"Master, you can find a house here first, I'm going to take a look around the county town!" Wang Qing couldn't wait to slip away.
She skillfully hopped into the county government office and saw several familiar faces, all looking worried.
Magistrate Chen was very distressed: "My family used to be very wealthy, but with the capital in such chaos, we have long since given away all our wealth and fled for our lives. I really don't have any extra money to support the county."
Xu Rurong rested her chin on her slender fingers and sighed, "The issues of grain prices and grain have all been resolved, but why is the county government of Huangxian so poor?"
You wouldn't believe it until you see it; the warehouse was completely empty. There wasn't a single grain of rice left, let alone any government silver!
Luo Yong's resolute face also lowered, looking somewhat dejected, feeling that he had not kept a good watch over things.
But the problem doesn't actually lie with him; it's the fault of the previous magistrate. If the other party hadn't let it go, how could such an absurd thing have happened?
The three of them exchanged a glance and sighed in unison again.
"The county government of this desolate county is so poor?" A woman's voice suddenly came from the window.
The group instinctively turned their heads and saw a woman sitting on the windowsill, backlit by the light.
The woman was petite with a naturally baby face and soft dimples when she smiled, yet no one present dared to underestimate her.
After all, this is a demon hunter wielding a large cleaver! He dares to chop down even the most powerful demons, so why would he be afraid of a small county government office?
Half an hour later, Wang Qing finished listening to Luo Yong's account and understood what had happened recently.
"So, after you dealt with those three major grain merchants, you wanted to buy grain but found their warehouses empty?"
The three nodded in unison.
“That’s easy! There’s a saying in military strategy: ‘All warfare is based on deception.’ Just scam them again. They have plenty of money!” Wang Qing’s round face smiled slyly.
Xu Rurong suddenly raised his head, his black eyes shining like stars. He had an idea!
Half an hour later, Luo Yong carried a stone tablet covered with a red cloth, Chen, the county magistrate, held tools, and Wang Qing carried a large machete, following behind Xu Rurong.
Behind them, several constables carried a large box, all with joyful expressions.
The surrounding people saw this and all gathered around out of curiosity.
Of course, many people were simply expressing their gratitude to the newly appointed magistrate.
"Your Excellency, I've heard that it was you who managed to lower the grain price in our county. You are truly the benefactor of our desolate county!"
"Your Excellency, we were blind before and did not recognize your identity!"
Some people even knelt down in front of them.
"Get up quickly, this is what I should do. As the magistrate of Huangxian County, I should think of you!" Xu Rurong was a college student village official in her previous life. Before she could do anything for the people, she transmigrated.
He had never seen such a scene before and was a little nervous for a moment.
After finally getting the crowds to disperse and returning the vegetables that some vendors had offered to them, Xu Rurong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go, let's continue to deliver surprises to the Zhao family patriarch!" Xu Rurong clenched her fists, full of fighting spirit.
Wang Qing easily tossed the machete in her hand into the air and nodded.
