Catching Monsters

Chapter 202: Snow on the Iceberg, Deep Sea Yu Fish

dong dong dong.

Not long after, there was a crisp knock on the door.

Fang Jiuyou looked outside the house and said, "Please come in."

As the door opened, the person who entered the room was Feng Yu, who was wearing casual clothes.

When Feng Yu entered the house, he saw three monsters eating their companions. He just frowned slightly, then said with a smile: "Mr. Fang, thank you for waiting for a long time. His Majesty has been unwell recently. I'm sure you have heard something about it."

"So I was specially sent here to meet Mr. Fang and see if the items he purchased this time are complete."

"If there is anything you want or something that is lacking in the market, you can tell me and I will help Mr. Fang find a solution."

Fang Jiuyou's identity is also extremely special to the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Although the Eastern Demon Kingdom has not shown any signs of invading the Great Zhou Dynasty in the past few hundred years, establishing good relations with it is something that every emperor attaches great importance to.

Although Fang Jiuyou is not nominally a special envoy of the Eastern Demon Kingdom, he still holds a considerable status and weight in the Eastern Demon Kingdom.

He would come to the capital several times every year to buy some items that the Eastern Demon Kingdom was interested in.

Every time he came, if Xiao Yuzheng was free, he would meet Fang Jiuyou in person.

If he is not available, he will ask Feng Yu to meet on his behalf.

"Oh, they're eating! Mr. Fang's servants have a really good appetite." Feng Yu entered the house and took a look at the three monsters eating the spider monster's corpse, and couldn't help but admire it.

Fang Jiuyou had a faint smile on his face. He pointed at the body on the ground and said slowly, "This is my subordinate, Zhu'er. Eunuch Feng should have seen him last year."

"Oh, I have some impression, some impression." Feng Yu nodded, looked at him, and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter, did he make Mr. Fang unhappy? Did he kill him?"

"Although this girl has followed me for many years, her evil nature is hard to change. She still does things without rules." Fang Jiuyou said slowly: "This morning, she killed more than 30 people in the teahouse."

Hearing this, Feng Yu frowned, but the people below had no time to report.

After all, it was just a monster killing people. As long as it was not a major matter, the Jinyiwei would generally handle it and then report it to Li Wangxin.

And Li Wangxin submitted a memorial.

Feng Yu only found out about this when he was dealing with memorials.

"Eunuch Feng and I have known each other for some time. He knows that I value rules the most. She killed someone in the capital, so she should pay with her life." Fang Jiuyou said slowly, holding a folding fan in his hand.

Feng Yu nodded. Fang Jiuyou was an outlier among the monsters. Although he was a monster, he attached great importance to the word rules.

Fang Jiuyou said slowly: "But Zhu'er has followed me for many years. Although I know that she is asking for trouble, I can't bear it and want to avenge her..."

Feng Yu frowned slightly, then asked with a smile: "What does Mr. Fang mean?"

Fang Jiuyou said calmly: "We have known each other for so many years. I want to save the life of a Jinyiwei. Can Eunuch Feng give me some face?"

"Of course, everything will be done according to the rules of your Great Zhou Dynasty."

"There must be no clean people in the officialdom of your Great Zhou. As a Jinyiwei, this person is probably not that clean either."

"Search him for corruption and bribery, and then punish him according to the laws of your Great Zhou."

Feng Yu's expression became a little serious when he heard this, and he asked, "Which Jinyiwei offended Mr. Fang?"

"I heard from his subordinates that they call him Captain Jiang."

Feng Yu was slightly stunned. How could this little bastard be related to him? Feng Yu's eyes turned and he said to Fang Jiuyou in a deep voice, "Don't worry, Mr. Fang. I will take care of this matter."

Seeing Feng Yu agreed, Fang Jiuyou also reminded him: "Eunuch Feng, remember that everything must be done according to the rules. You must never frame others to harm them."

Feng Yu narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing this, and then said: "These are all trivial matters. I remember that Mr. Fang came to the capital two months ago. Why did he come again so soon? Is there anything special?"

Fang Jiuyou nodded, and then said: "This time, in addition to buying some items, there is a monster captured by the Monster Country that has escaped into the Zhou Country and should be hiding near the capital."

"One of the purposes of my visit is to find and arrest him."

When Feng Yu heard this, he was a little surprised. How could a monster escape that would cause Fang Jiuyou to come and capture it personally?
"What kind of monster is it? Do you need my help?"

Fang Jiuyou shook his head: "Eunuch Feng, please help me with Jiang Yun's affairs. I will be very grateful to you."

……

Jiang Yun was lying on the recliner in front of his desk, flipping through a file about the Eastern Demonic Kingdom.

It contains a rough record about the Eastern Demonic Kingdom.

Legend has it that humans and demons coexisted in the land of Zhou and killed each other for two thousand years, with countless casualties on both sides.

The demon race, relying on the four demon saints, stirs up trouble, and the human race can only barely hold on.

Finally, three thousand years ago, a human crossed over to the other side, achieved enlightenment and became a saint, becoming the first saint of the human race.

He fought hard against the four great demon saints. The battle lasted for ten days and ten nights, and finally he defeated the four great demon saints one by one.

Afterwards, the Four Demon Saints led thousands of monsters and hid on an island in the Eastern Ocean, and dared not set foot in human territory again.

And that island is called the Eastern Demonic Kingdom.

The records here are extremely rare and obscure, and seem like myths.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Jiang Yun quickly sat up and opened the door.

"Hey, Eunuch Feng, how come you have time to come and sit with me?" When Jiang Yun saw the person coming outside the door, a smile immediately appeared on his face and he invited the person into the house.

Feng Yu's smile remained unchanged. After he sat down, he looked at Jiang Yun deeply and said slowly, "You kid, you always like to cause trouble for me."

"Fang Jiu has persuaded me to investigate your background thoroughly. If you have committed corruption or bribery, I will arrest you."

Hearing Feng Yu's words, Jiang Yun was shocked. Although he knew that Fang Jiuyou was somewhat unusual, he didn't expect that he could actually talk to Feng Yu.

Moreover, can he ask Feng Yu to help him?

Of course, Feng Yu came in person and told him about this matter, which clearly showed that he would help him. He quickly stood up and poured tea for Feng Yu: "Eunuch, please have a sip of tea first to cool down. This tea is first-class good tea."

Feng Yu laughed, picked up the teacup, took a sip, tasted it, and said, "Not bad, it should be Northern Snow Tea..."

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "As long as you like it, my lord. I am a rough man and I don't know much about tea. These were all given to me by my subordinates."

"If you like it, I have a whole box under my desk. I'll have someone send it to my father-in-law."

Feng Yu glared at Jiang Yun, snorted and said, "You kid, didn't you listen to what I said just now? Mr. Fang asked me to check whether you have embezzled or accepted bribes. If so, you must be severely punished."

"This Northern Snow Tea is very valuable..."

Hearing this, Jiang Yun pointed at the teacup in Feng Yu's hand and said, "Eunuch, I haven't even touched a sip of this tea. You are the first person to drink it..."

"This can't be considered corruption or bribery, otherwise wouldn't my father-in-law be my accomplice?"

Feng Yu was speechless. He took two more sips of tea and said slowly, "Okay, you don't have to worry about Mr. Fang targeting you. As long as you haven't committed any crime or accepted bribes, Mr. Fang won't do anything to you."

"Mr. Fang likes to follow the rules when doing things."

"As for you, keep a low profile during this period. Isn't Sanqing Temple about to open? Stay in Sanqing Temple well." "Don't run around."

"Yes." Jiang Yun nodded.

Then Feng Yu looked at Jiang Yun seriously and asked, "I heard that Qin Shujian became your apprentice?"

"That's right." Jiang Yun nodded and couldn't help thinking in his heart, I have to say, Feng Yu is really well-informed in the capital and knows everything.

Feng Yu hesitated for a moment before reminding Jiang Yun, "The Qin family is about to get into big trouble. You'd better not get too involved with the Qin family."

"There's a big shot who's set his sights on his family business."

"His father, Qin Yuntao, has been looking for a backer recently because of this matter..."

"Qin Yuntao is a smart man, but unfortunately his luck is not very good. It is not easy to keep such a huge family business in the capital."

"They have to find a backer in the officialdom to keep the Qin family prosperous and wealthy."

"His previous backer was initially the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works, and later he found the Vice Minister of the Ministry of War."

"Unfortunately, both of them were eventually investigated and punished for corruption and bribery."

"The last supporter is the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Chang Pingyuan."

"Chang Pingyuan is also his backer?" Jiang Yun was slightly stunned.

Feng Yu looked at Jiang Yun deeply and said slowly: "Anyway, listen to my advice. Something will happen to the Qin family soon. I know your character. Don't do anything reckless."

After saying that, Feng Yu stood up and patted Jiang Yun on the shoulder. After taking two steps, he suddenly sighed: "The tea just now was very smooth."

Jiang Yun quickly picked up the box of tea and said with a smile, "Tell me when you've finished drinking, and I'll prepare some for you."

After putting the box of tea on Feng Yu's carriage, he watched Feng Yu leave with his own eyes.

Jiang Yun did not feel relieved. How could he feel at ease easily when someone like Fang Jiuyou was thinking about him?

As for what Feng Yu said about the Qin family's crisis, Jiang Yun didn't take it to heart for the time being.

I haven't even dealt with my own problems yet, so how can I have the time to care about the Qin family?

Sitting back in the study, Jiang Yun smacked his lips. It was a pity that he hadn't even had the chance to taste the Northern Territory Iced Tea properly.

After reading for a while and seeing that it was almost time, he left work and returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

He came to Xu Suwen's yard and looked inside. Jiang Qiaoqiao was holding a broom and staring at the surroundings with full alertness. Xiao Hei was lying on her shoulder, yawning and looking sleepy.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Yun walked forward curiously.

Jiang Qiaoqiao had a look of joy on her face, but she whispered, "Sister Xu is making a breakthrough in there. She said she is about to reach the sixth level of the innate realm of martial arts."

Hearing this, Jiang Yun nodded slightly. This speed was actually quite fast.

After the sixth level of martial arts, there are the fifth level of controlling Qi, the fourth level of unity, the third level of grandmaster, the second level of earthly immortal, and the first level of heavenly immortal.

When the third grade is so rare, the second grade earthly immortal and the first grade celestial immortal are even less heard of.

Jiang Qiaoqiao said, holding up the broom: "Sister Xu asked me to protect her. No one can disturb her."

Jiang Yun rolled his eyes at Jiang Qiaoqiao and said with a smile, "How can a little girl like you protect her?"

"Have you learned what the teacher taught you today?"

"Go, go, I'll give you Sister Xu to protect you."

Seeing this, Jiang Qiaoqiao touched her head, took her book and ran to Jiang Yun's room next door to do her homework.

Jiang Yun, on the other hand, simply sat cross-legged in the yard, meditating quietly and protecting Xu Suwen.

After all, a breakthrough in martial arts practice is not a trivial matter. If you are disturbed, something serious might happen.

However, when Jiang Yun was in Xu Suwen's yard, even if servants passed by, they would leave quickly.

Because Madam Tao had given an order that no one could disturb Jiang Yun when he was in Xu Suwen's yard.

There was a fine snowfall from the sky.

The night passed quickly.

Jiang Yun, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation outside the house, had a light layer of snow on his body.

Early in the morning, Xu Suwen came out of the house in high spirits, pushed open the door and walked out. When she saw the people outside the house covered with a thin layer of snow, worry immediately appeared on her face.

She thought it was Jiang Qiaoqiao.

But when he stepped forward, he saw that it was Jiang Yun, and he hurriedly woke him up: "Wake up."

"Miss, I'm not asleep. I'm meditating and I'm awake." Jiang Yun opened his eyes and said, "You're practicing in there to make a breakthrough. How dare I sleep? What if you're disturbed and go crazy like in the storyteller's story? What should I do?"

Xu Suwen felt warm in his heart and said, "Martial arts practitioners are different from your Taoist, Confucian, and Buddhist sects. They are not so prone to going astray. However, if they are disturbed, their foundation will be unstable and their cultivation speed will slow down."

At this point, Xu Suwen rolled his eyes at him and said, "How come you don't even understand this?"

Jiang Yun shrugged his shoulders and said, "I haven't encountered any bottlenecks in my cultivation, so how can I understand?"

"Son of a bitch." Xu Suwen gnashed his teeth when he heard this, but considering that the other party had spent a whole night protecting him, he said, "Come on, I'll take you out for breakfast."

"Okay." Jiang Yun patted the snow off his body and quickly got up.

The two of them walked slowly toward the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

When she arrived outside the gate, Xu Suwen looked at Jiang Yun beside her. She had liked Jiang Yun for a long time, but she had never had a good opportunity...

Now he protects himself for one night.

Otherwise, just hold hands.

Thinking of this, Xu Suwen mustered up his courage and was about to hold Jiang Yun's hand.

Outside the door of the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, a figure appeared.

Von Belle.

At this moment, Feng Bei'er no longer looked like the lady from a noble family.

There were tiny blood marks on his snow-white cheeks due to the wind and frost on the snow. He was wearing a thick cotton jacket and a fishing bag around his waist.

These days, she traveled thousands of miles, climbed the icebergs in the north, went south to sea, boarded a fishing sailboat, and fished personally.

This was all because of what Jiang Yun had casually said at the time, that he wanted to drink the iceberg snow that she had picked with her own hands, and eat the deep-sea fish that she had caught with her own hands.

Feng Beier looked at Jiang Yun with a resolute look, raised the kettle and the fish bag on his waist and said, "Mr. Jiang, I got the Iceberg Snow and Deep Sea Yu Fish myself!"

"What's going on?" Xu Suwen looked at the extremely beautiful Feng Bei'er. Her temperament at this moment was not even a bit like that of a lady from a noble family. She looked at Jiang Yun beside her with some surprise.

Jiang Yun also looked at Feng Bei'er with some surprise. He had just said it casually at the time, but he didn't expect Feng Bei'er to really do it.
