Chapter 876: Going on a Long Journey

Let me reiterate that Li Chengxi wants to live a peaceful life.

Knowing about the Nine Departments and a group of supernatural creatures hidden under the normal society did make Li Chengxi curious for a while.

But it was only for a while. His curiosity was not that strong. Anyway, as long as it was not close to me, he would do whatever he wanted.

So Qian Sen invited Li Chengxi to help several times, but he refused. He just didn't intend to get involved.

But this time, the matter hit him in the face, and he had to get involved.

Listen, Lingbao Tiangong, this name is definitely not a small fish.

"What is that?"

"You asked me what it is, and I can only answer that I don't know. The history of Lingbao Tiangong can be traced back to the Zhou Dynasty at the earliest. In fact, it should be much older than the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, but there is no actual descriptive record left, only a name, and the record that it suppressed the demons in the world."

"What should I do if there is nothing?"

"It's not that there are no clues at all..."

"Wait, you said Lei Lei has clues?"

"Yes, this may be the reason why she was attacked."

"You mean, these monsters want to destroy the Lingbao Tiangong, and then restore their magic power and be free?"

"That's probably the purpose."

"Didn't there monsters a long time ago? Why didn't they take action before?"

"In the past, the monsters were scattered, and few knew about the existence of Lingbao Tiangong. Now. Look at the mobile phone in your hand, and you will know how convenient communication is now."

This is also possible?

"Moreover, we suspect that there are external forces involved, and the more specific things are still unclear."

"Such a big thing, your Nine Sections actually didn't react at all?"

Gan Xiaoyan was confused before she came. It stands to reason that even if it is not a first-level combat readiness, it should be fully mobilized.

"This is the difficult part. Not everyone in our Nine Sections has the same idea. Some people think that we should take this opportunity to eliminate all the monsters in one fell swoop. In the future, just like dealing with pests, we will kill one as soon as it comes out."

"..."

How cruel.

Monsters are like people, there are good and bad ones. Some people in the Nine Sections think that they can't be treated in the same way.

While others think that the Nine Sections should put people first. The existence of monsters has obviously affected people, so they can't stay.

This is like a dog that bites people can't live. No matter how cute the animal is, we must first ensure that the absolute status of people cannot be moved.

Both sides say you are right, I say I am right, in short, no one can convince anyone.

"In short, the headquarters is still arguing about this matter. At present, the faction advocating annihilation has the upper hand. They don't ask to convince us, just to delay. As long as the monsters destroy Lingbao Tiangong and restore their magic power, it will be the end of the monsters."

Fuck, you don't want to send troops to directly wipe them out physically...

So where there are people, there are disputes. This is true. The Nine Departments are not monolithic.

To put it simply, this matter is a group of monsters who want to restore their magic power and live freely. There may be assistance from external forces. There is a faction in the Nine Departments that thinks that it is better to let them do it. Once the situation is serious enough to be out of the control of the Nine Departments, they can justifiably carry out genocide against the monsters.

The other faction with fewer people in the Nine Departments intends to keep things quiet, but it is obviously not in the upper hand now.

This is roughly the process.

The reason of the war faction is understandable, because the Nine Departments are already stretched thin just managing the time travelers. Since the Hidden Mist Village can no longer manage monsters, these guys now have no stable residence. No matter what management strategy is used, it will cost manpower and material resources.

In this case, it is better to just end it all.

It feels that the war faction must have been driven crazy by the heavy workload. There are quite a few such people in the Nine Departments...

But then again, Li Chengxi thinks that either of these two options is fine, anyway, he is not a monster.

This matter is not important to him. What is important is how to deal with Lei Lei.

"What should we do? Let her stay with me first?"

"Too passive, Lei Lei is a disciple of the Lei family in Jingzhou, and the clues of Lingbao Tiangong can basically be traced back to Jingzhou. Our Nine Sections have always suspected that the Lei family knows something, but they don't say it, so we can't force them."

"You should tell us what to do."

"At present, our Nine Sections have not made a decision. It will be too late to make a decision later. So my suggestion is to ask you to escort Lei Lei back to the Lei family to see the situation of the Lei family. I have lost contact with my colleagues in Jingzhou. I am afraid that the situation is not optimistic. I am not at ease to let Gan Xiaoyan go."

"...You are really good at ordering people, Aren't there other foreign aids? The master who came to treat Lei Lei just now, a man named Lin Tianci, seems to be very powerful. Wouldn't it be better to let him go for this matter? "

"How much face do you think I have? He is almost a real immortal, and I can't do anything. Besides, the matter of the monsters is really not a big deal. There are too many things to do. Just tell me whether you will go or not, and give me a straight answer."

"Fuck, you are still arrogant? It seems like you are begging me!"

Li Chengxi looked at Lei Lei, then at Gan Xiaoyan, and sighed:

"Okay, I'll go."

I guess Qian Sen also knew that Li Chengxi would definitely agree, so he said so.

He is the type of person who will never move when it doesn't concern him, but he will definitely not watch when people around him are in trouble.

To put it bluntly, it means that they lack empathy for strangers and are particularly protective of their shortcomings.

"In short, it would be best if the guy who is stirring up trouble behind the monsters is killed, and Lingbao Palace is not damaged. If that doesn't work, prioritize your own safety and don't worry about other things. When that time comes, the army will probably be responsible for cleaning up the mess."

The howitzer firepower covers the monsters, right? Got it.

"That's it. I have some information about Lingbao Palace and monsters. I'll send it to you later. I may not be able to contact you recently. Xiaoyan, if you have any questions, call Brother Ren. If he's not here, Brother Dong should be able to do it."

The two people he mentioned are Ren Baolai who appeared just now, and Chen Dong, who is Qian Sen's classmate.

Ren Baolai was transferred to the ninth department at the provincial level, while Chen Dong was in the next city, very close, and both of them are old hands. It's more reliable to call them if there are any questions.

"Anyway, you guys should be careful. When we contact next time, it's probably that this matter is over. I have to go to a meeting. See you later."

After saying that, Qian Sen hung up the phone in a hurry.

Li Chengxi leaned back on the sofa and sighed:

"What a hassle..."

Li Chengxi usually reads three scripts, plays dramas and games when he has nothing to do. How comfortable it is. Now, he has to go on a long journey.

Gan Xiaoyan picked up the phone and asked:

"I'll arrange the trip right now. Do you have any requests, Brother Li?"

"By the way, can you reimburse the ticket?"

"...Yes."

Gan Xiaoyan couldn't keep up with Li Chengxi's train of thought.
