Chapter 82: Jin City
ho attacked me is Yang Yue.""Yang Yue"Shen Changqing's face was full of doubt.This was the first time he had heard this name.Immediately, Wang Xiao added: "Yang Yue is the head of the Great Zhou royal...Near the window, a young man in green sits with a small pot of wine, three plates of side dishes, and a knife on the table. He stares out the window, drinking alone.
The scenery in Jincheng is very different from that of Guangyuan Prefecture and the capital.
>
Shen Changqing looked out the window. There were many people coming and going, and everyone's clothing was somewhat different from what he had seen before.
And.
>
The sky in Dahuang Prefecture is often dry and hot, which makes the people here have drier and more yellowish skin compared to the delicate and white complexion of people elsewhere.
This is his first day in Jincheng.
>
Since taking on the mission, Shen Changqing simply tidied up and then rushed to the Great Wilderness Mansion.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If Guanyuanfu is close to the capital, then Dahuangfu borders Guanyuanfu.
To enter the Great Desolate Mansion, one must traverse the Guangyuan Mansion first.
For this reason.
He spent a lot of time traveling.
After half a month, I finally arrived in Jin City.
Drew his gaze back from the window.

Shen Changqing looked vaguely at the other table not far away.
Two males and two females.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The man was somewhat handsome, but not exceptionally so. The two women, however, were tall and graceful, attracting quite a bit of attention.
The four people didn't look very old. You could tell from their skin that they weren't from Dahuangfu itself.
>
Of course.
As a large household, Dahuangfu often has people from other households visiting, which is not unusual.
Xu Yi, male, joined the Demon Suppression Bureau in June of the 380th year of the Qin Dynasty!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“Tian Fei Bai, male, joined the Zhen Mo Si in June of the 381st year of the Great Qin Dynasty!”
This is a text snippet.
“Jiang Yu, female, entered the Demon Suppression Division in June of the 381st year of the Great Qin Dynasty!”
"Xiao Wen, female, joined the Demon Suppression Division in June of the 381st year of the Great Qin Dynasty!"
In Shen Changqing's mind, memories of the information he had received flashed.
He didn't get much information, after all, he was only a part-time caregiver. He wouldn't need too much information anyway.
Now is the 383rd year of the Qin Dynasty, June.
It is obvious.
Some people only go to execute their missions when the one-year deadline arrives, rather than beforehand.
"Unknowingly, I've been in this world for two years now."
Shen Changqing suddenly became sentimental.
Two years passed in the blink of an eye.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
During this time, he was either carrying out missions or diligently cultivating, not doing anything extra at all. Therefore, he didn't have a strong sense of time passing.
Until now, looking back at the information of several people, Shen Changqing only realized that he had already spent two years in this world.
Two years.
The changes are quite significant.
From a person with no cultivation whatsoever, I have now reached the pinnacle of innate realm.
Looking again at Xu Yi and the others, Shen Changqing sighed once more.
When he was on duty, no one treated him like their child. Now, he's the one treating them like his children.
However.
Such tasks are ultimately a minority.
Many times, the assessment missions for apprentice demon slayers are completed individually.
Shen Changqing suspected that the task he received to go to Lin'an City was most likely related to his early acupuncture.
The main point is.
At that time, the Demon Suppression Division was indeed short-handed.
Although demons are still rampant today, they are far less so than last year, and the Demon Suppression Division is no longer on the verge of collapse.
> From a single task, it can be seen that four apprentice demon slayers can work together.
>
Besides the information given that the demon's strength is powerful, the rest proves that the Demon Suppression Office has received a lot of fresh blood replenishment.
With a quick glance, to avoid suspicion, Shen Changqing averted his gaze.
> On the other side.
A few apprentice demon slayers were also whispering amongst themselves.
"You all have received the mission details, right It's said that a wealthy family in Jin City died numerous people, and they went to report to the officials, which is how Tiancha Wei got the news. Judging by the situation, there are demonic beings present there, with strength roughly around the early or mid-pulse stage."
>
Xu Yi looked at the few people and said.
He is considered one of the older members in the team, so he was temporarily appointed as the captain for this mission.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Upon hearing this.
Jiang Yu, with a pretty appearance, showed a hint of fear on her delicate face when she heard the words "demon" and "evil."
"Brother Xu, with our strength, can we actually deal with that demon"
That shouldn't be a problem.
Xu Yi glanced at her and offered a word of comfort.
“My brother Fei Bai, Miss Xiao and I have all broken through to the Tongmai realm. Although you haven't broken through, you are also halfway there. Relying on the four of us working together, even if it is a demon from the middle stage of Tongmai, we should be able to kill it without much difficulty.”
Three who have just entered the meridian, plus half a step into the meridian, join forces to deal with one in the mid-stage of meridian. As long as they are careful, they can handle it.
Upon hearing this.
Jiang Yu's tension inside suddenly lessened a lot.
Tian Fei Bai said, "Should we go straight to the courtyard now, or..."
"Let's gather some intel first, then talk."
Xu Yi pondered for a moment, then shook his head.
Then follows.
He looked at Tian Fei Bai: "Brother Fei Bai, you go to the government office and see if you can get some information from the county magistrate."
"No problem."
Tian Fei nodded.
Then.
"Xu Yi again looked at Jiang Yu and Xiao Wen: "The two of you go to the Zhou family once, and ask about the specific situation. It's best to have some characteristics of those demons."
Jiang Yu and Xiao Wen glanced at each other, both nodding.
"Good."
"I'll go to Tiancewei and inquire about some information. At the hour of Wu, in the evening, we'll meet at the inn." Xu Yi said in a low voice.
Hearing this, the other few people had no problem.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Very soon.
A few people whispered to each other for a while, then settled the bill and left.
Their voices were soft, but to Shen Changqing's ears, they were crystal clear.
Xu Yi does have some experience in the Jianghu. While he doesn't do things perfectly, he has reduced a lot of mistakes. The rest of them are just a bit too inexperienced.
He shook his head slightly.
From the conversation, it can be seen that Xu Yi's ability to become the captain is not just because of his age. His extensive experience in the Jianghu (martial arts world) is also a very important factor.
As for the others, they are clearly inexperienced.
But also normal.
The apprentice demon hunter of the Demon Suppression Division doesn't have much experience in the world, just like his previous life. In fact, he doesn't have much worldly experience either.
"Just—"
If they underestimate the demons because of this, they are destined to suffer greatly.
Shen Changqing raised his wine glass and took a sip.
It is worth mentioning that the wine here is less spicy and more mellow compared to the wine from the past.
If we have to make a comparison, it's a tie.
Until you've actually fought a demon, you can never truly understand just how difficult they are to deal with. Especially their unpredictable and elusive attack methods, which make them nearly impossible to guard against.
As a rule.
Three early stage meridian openers, and one half-step meridian opener martial artist, can deal with a middle stage meridian opener martial artist.
But—
If you want to deal with a mid-stage demon, if you're careless, you could suffer heavy losses.
Watching a few people leave.
Shen Changqing finished the last cup of wine and then shouted.
"Xiao'er."
"What can I do for you, sir"
>
The waiter rushed over, with a forced smile on his face.
"Check, please."
"Alright!" The waiter smiled, counted the bill, and then bowed: "Sir, your total comes to one hundred and twenty-three copper coins."
One pot of wine.
Three small dishes.
Over one hundred and twenty wons isn't too expensive, but it's not cheap for the average commoner either.
Therefore, ordinary people rarely came to wine shops to eat in the Qin Dynasty.
Two taels of silver coins were taken out and placed on the table.
The waiter took the silver, carefully examined it, and then, with a beaming smile, put it away.
“Please wait a moment, sir. I'll go get the money for you.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Hmm!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing nodded.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Upon seeing this, the young waiter's face fell a little, but he didn't say much. He tucked away the two copper coins and left.
After a while, he returned.
"Sir, there are seventy-seven articles here. Please take them."
Seventy-seven wen were contained in a simple money bag.
Shen Changqing weighed it in his hands a couple of times before tucking it into his bosom.
Thank you.
He said a word, and then he got up and left.
From beginning to end, he never gave the young waiter a second glance, nor did he take out a few coins from his purse to reward him.
Not until Shen Changqing was completely gone did the young waiter spit out a low curse.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
"Looks fresh, didn't expect you to be so cheap—"
Complained about something.
This line of text does not need to be translated as it is already in English. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He shook his head helplessly, then turned to greet other guests.
Working at the wine shop didn't pay much. Most of my income came from generous customers' tips, which barely made up for it and allowed me to make a living.
A guest like that would not be welcome anywhere.
At this moment.
Shen Changqing had already left the wine shop and was walking on the street.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
As for the shopkeeper's thoughts, he was also quite clear.
Throughout the entire process, Shen Changqing had no intention of rewarding the other party. After all, making money was not easy. Even though he had over 20,000 taels of silver in his possession, he still needed to live frugally.
"Sigh, no matter where you are, making money is hard. Once the silver is spent, you'll have to figure out a way to get more."
Although more than 20,000 taels of silver may seem like a lot, it doesn't last very long when you start spending it.
It's not like every time we have the good fortune of last time in Lin'an, where we could scrape together 30,000 taels of silver.
Therefore.
Now Shen Changqing cherishes this silver tael extra, unless it is a necessary expense, the remaining expenses are saved as much as possible.
As for the so-called tipping, that's even more impossible.
Walking down the street.
Shen Changqing reviewed the information in his mind, then stopped a passerby and politely asked.
"Excuse me, where is Tian'yi Building located"
The intercepted person didn't want to answer at first, but seeing Shen Changqing's sword on his waist, and although his face was gentle, he always gave off an unnoticeable pressure, he instantly dared not refuse.
"Tien Yi Lou is on Xi Street. You can walk straight in this direction for two intersections, and then turn right."
Thank you!
