Walking and stopping, Cang Yun was aimless, unable to concentrate and think. He did not eat or drink, nor did he stick talismans, just relying on his feet to move forward.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the sun and moon changed. Cang Yun's injuries were basically healed, but without the help of spirit herbs, he would not be able to recover for more than ten years. Cang Yun was penniless now, so why did he bring spirit herbs? Therefore, his face was pale. Although he had no external injuries, he was actually extremely weak.
The trees slowly retreated, and another tree appeared in front of him. It was muddy, and every step was difficult.
After walking for another night, Cang Yun couldn't remember how long he hadn't eaten. He had no appetite at all these days.
Early in the morning, Cang Yun saw a fruit tree. He didn't know what kind of fruit was on the tree, but he couldn't care less. A feeling of hunger swept over him, and Cang Yun plucked the fruit and began to eat crazily.
After eating a few catties of fruits, Cang Yun fell into a deep sleep.
After a few hours, Cang Yun opened his eyes and felt much better. He leaned against the fruit tree and carefully recalled what had happened in the past few days, as if he had a dream.
"Get up, Yu Ling's life and death are unknown, you can't fall down first, you must be strong.”Cang Yun thought so in his heart. He stood up and moved forward again, but his heart was empty.
After walking for a short while, Cang Yun walked out of the forest and could vaguely see the city walls in the distance.
Ghost Locust Tree did not lie to Cang Yun. The place where Cang Yun met the woodcutter was not far from Lang County. There was also a notice in the county saying that there were demons in the forest, which was Ghost Locust Tree Uncle. If Cang Yun hadn't gone in a different direction to find Yu Ling, he would have reached Lang County long ago.
Seeing the county town, Cang Yun walked towards the city wall. He was bored to death, it didn't matter where he went.
As they approached the city gate, more and more people came and looked at Cang Yun with strange eyes. Cang Yun didn't understand. He looked at himself and remembered that his clothes were tattered and covered in blood. He was worse than an ordinary beggar. He laughed at himself and walked straight into the city gate without caring about what others thought. Fortunately, there was no rule that those who were not properly dressed were not allowed to enter the city, and there were no city enforcement officers. Otherwise, Cang Yun would have encountered more trouble. After Cang Yun entered the city, he looked left and right before slowly walking forward.
"What a pity. Such a child wants to eat. Come, child, I'll give you some!”A kind voice said.
Cang Yun was stunned. He didn't think that there would be good people in this day and age. Turning around, he saw an old lady holding a bun in her hand. It seemed like she was giving it to him. Cang Yun stood there, not knowing whether to take it or not. The old lady stuffed the bun into Cang Yun's hands,"Sigh, there seems to be something wrong with his brain.”He shook his head and left.
Cang Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Looking at Steamed Bun, he was quite touched and his mood lightened up.
A small matter meant different things to different people. The significance of sending charcoal in the snow was really different from adding flowers to the flowers.
Cang Yun kept the bun in his pocket and continued walking. When he reached the yamen, he saw a large group of people gathered in front of the notice board. He didn't know what they were looking at. Cang Yun had nothing else to do, so he also went over to take a look. When the surrounding crowd saw that Cang Yun was dirty, they automatically made way for him. Cang Yun enjoyed this feeling.
There was a large notice on the notice board, which read as follows: Recently, there have been many people missing in our county. There are no corpses. The residents of the county and the people who come and go are required to stay together. Do not go deep into the forest outside the city. Furthermore, the county has specially recruited constables to serve the masses. Generous treatment, five insurances and one gold!
Cang Yun was watching when someone shouted,"What constable? How many constables have died in this month?" Who wants to die?"
"That's right, bullsh * t, serving the people!”
"This person's disappearance is so strange. It must be a demon. Who can defeat a demon?”
"Let's go, let's go."
Most of the crowd dispersed, leaving only a few people who hadn't finished reading the notice.
Cang Yun smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking that the demon mentioned on the notice was very likely the Gui Huai. How could he be a match for the Gui Huai? Thinking about how his mind was in a mess now, how could he have the leisure to catch demons?
Turning around to leave, Cang Yun suddenly thought that Yu Ling might have been kidnapped by nearby demons, or that he could use the power of the government to find Yu Ling. He turned around and walked towards the yamen.
There were two officers standing guard at the yamen entrance. When they saw a small man who looked like a beggar coming over, they stopped him."Stop, this isn't a restaurant, go beg elsewhere.”
Cang Yun calmly looked at the policeman,"I'm here to be a constable."”
"What?" The policeman laughed. You're a constable? Kid, you must be starving. Let's go!”
Cang Yun stepped forward and punched the officer in the stomach, causing the officer to scream.
The policemen at the side were stunned, and the surrounding commoners were shocked.
Violent appeal?
"Do you think I can be a constable?" Cang Yun asked.
The beaten policeman squeezed out a few words." Alright, you're quite strong. Then you can go in and look for Grand Master in the inner hall."”
Cang Yun did not look at him and walked straight into the yamen.
The commoners burst into applause.
Entering the inner hall of the yamen, there was indeed a person who looked like a private advisor drinking tea. Seeing Cang Yun enter, he frowned,"Where did this little beggar come from?”
"I'm here to be a constable." Cang Yun said.
"You're a constable?" The advisor was stunned. Did you see the notice?"
"I did."
"Aren't you afraid of death?" The advisor asked.
"Are you done yet?" Cang Yunwei said angrily.
"Sure, sure, of course. As long as you're willing to do it, we can talk about anything." We only have one constable now. We don't have any bailiffs. We're just short of you.”
The advisor was secretly delighted. Since last month, a large number of constables had been sacrificed, and no one was willing to become a constable. How could such a big yamen not have constables? Moreover, the missing persons case had not been resolved, and the higher-ups had given him a lot of pressure. Now that someone had taken the initiative to take up the post, wasn't this a stupid constable falling from the sky?
The advisor hastily went through the formalities for Cang Yun and Cang Yun became a public official.
"Cang Yun, rest here for a while. I'll call the constable over. You two have a good chat and then go see the magistrate tomorrow.”The advisor said a few words and left.
Cang Yun found a seat and sighed at the fickleness of the world. He didn't expect to become a civil servant. He didn't know how his master and his fellow disciples would react.
After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Cang Yun heard footsteps. It wasn't the Grand Master, so he knew that the constable had arrived. He stood up to welcome him. He still had this bit of etiquette.
Seeing who it was, Cang Yun was stunned.
The person was also stunned.
The person who came was indeed wearing the uniform of a constable. However, he looked to be only eleven or twelve years old. He was slightly plump and was not much taller than the waist knife. He was a little taller than Cang Yun. Cang Yun really did not expect the constable to be a child.
When the constable saw Cang Yun, he also felt the same way. He cursed the Grand Master in his heart. He said that he had found a constable with extremely strong combat strength to assist him. He did not expect it to be a constable younger and shorter than him.
Cang Yun had seen the world and was the first to greet,"Hello, constable."
The constable raised his hand and greeted,""Hello, comrade."
Silence.
"I'm Cang Yun, what's your name, Constable?”Cang Yun asked.
"My name is Xing Tian." the constable said.
Cang Yunxin thought that the name was quite domineering and said,"Constable Xing, this is the first time we meet.”
Xing Tian nodded and regained his composure.""No problem. Work hard with me.”Seeing Cang Yun's tattered clothes, Xing Tian continued,""Don't say anything else. Go take a shower. I'll get you a set of clothes.”
He brought Cang Yun to the constable's residence and boiled a bucket of water for Cang Yun to take a bath. Xing Tian ran to prepare the clothes, documents, and sabers that Cang Yun needed.
Xing Tian was quite efficient. Not long after, he had finished arranging everything for Cang Yun. Cang Yun changed into a new set of clothes and looked a little imposing. At least, Xing Tian was quite satisfied.
"Clothes make the man. Cang Yun, you really look like a constable in your constable clothes.”Xing Tian praised.
Cang Yun felt awkward when he heard this, but he didn't know how to refute.
"Let's go eat first." Xing Tian pulled Cang Yun to eat. Cang Yun was very happy to see Xing Tian's enthusiasm and ran to the tavern with Xing Tian.
After ordering a few dishes and some wine, the two of them chatted while eating.
"Cang Yun, where did you get this? Why did you want to be a constable? Just for stuttering?" Xing Tian asked.
"I came out of the Clear Sword Temple not to beg for food. There are other reasons for me to be a constable."”
"Oh?" Xing Tianyi was interested. I really thought you were a beggar. I've never heard of the Clear Sword Temple. Could it be a place where Taoist priests cultivate?”
Cang Yun nodded. Xing Tian's eyes lit up,"Then you also know spells?"
"I only know some talismans."
Xing Tian almost jumped up and shouted,""That's great!"
"What's wrong?" Cang Yun didn't understand.
Xing Tian took a sip of wine and said,"We can only defeat that monster if you have magic."”
Cang Yun smiled bitterly. Before he could answer, Xing Tian continued,""That bastard ran too fast. He went into the hole and couldn't be found.”
"What? You're not talking about a locust tree?”Cang Yun asked curiously.
Xing Tian looked at Cang Yun with a strange expression,""Locust tree? What does it have to do with the locust tree?"
Only then did Cang Yun know that there were other demons and asked,"It's fine. Let's not talk about the locust tree first. Have you seen that demon?”
Xing Tian's eyes reddened when he heard that. He gritted his teeth and said,""How could I not? My father was killed by that demon. I became the constable to take over my father's position and avenge him.”
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked." Cang Yun apologized.
Xing Tian took another sip of wine." It's okay. I just hate myself for being too weak to defeat that monster. Now that I have you, let's go together. We can definitely kill that monster and avenge my father. It's worth it even if I die."”
Cang Yun felt bitter in his heart. At this time, his confidence in his ability had already dropped to the extreme. Thinking of Yu Ling, his mood was chaotic. He could only comfort her,"Don't say that. Let's work hard together.”
Xing Tian's eyes were fierce. He chuckled and asked,""Cang Yun, why are you here as a constable?”
"A friend of mine has gone missing, so I came to be a constable to see if I can use the power of the government to find her."”
Xing Tian patted Cang Yun's shoulder.”
Cang Yun was greatly moved and also took a big gulp of wine,"Alright, I'll definitely be your friend.”
The two of them looked at each other and laughed, attracting many onlookers.
