Episode 1

The nights in Chang'an City always show two completely different faces.On one side are the bright lights of Zhuque Street and the music of Pingkangfang, while on the other side are the winding and unfathomable narrow alleys.At the third update, the sound of the gangster fell, and a black shadow swept across the roof like a ghost. A woman in a black robe and cloak was keenly chasing a bat demon.Originally, the Bat Demon was not her opponent, but the sudden intervention of the Zuo Jinwu Guard commander Huang Yi allowed the Bat Demon to take the opportunity to escape.The woman had no choice but to jump over the wall and head straight for Ruyi Tower.

At this moment, in Ruyi Building, the drinkers raised their glasses and drank, laughing and laughing.However, a running tabby cat attracted everyone's attention.It skillfully walked around the drunkard's legs and feet, avoided the gilded wine pot held in the maid's hand, and instantly entered the innermost room.The moment the door was closed, the cat shadow turned into a human form. Against the backdrop of a gilded feathered skirt, her face was beautiful and charming, and it was Wu Zhen, the lord of Qinghe County.

If you want to talk about this Wu Zhen, his life experience is extremely prominent.Her father was Duke of Yu, and her sister was the Empress Wu of the current dynasty.Logically speaking, she should have been a noble girl who lived in seclusion, but Wu Zhen had a rebellious personality.He has not gotten married after 20 years of age. He either takes his playboys on the countryside or spends all night in Lefang.In the gossip about her circulating in Chang'an City, there is always the news that the county lord changed the groom at night, but no one knows how many demons in human skin among her people around her.And she is the cat man who specializes in uniforming all kinds of evil spirits.

There is a mysterious place in Chang'an City called %Demon City, which is controlled by the two dukes of cat and snake.The second man was wandering in a vague way. Except for them and the four deputys, the other demons were not allowed to step into the world to cause trouble.Later, the second duke assisted the court in establishing the Xuanjiansi, which was specifically investigating monsters and intent on eliminating all evil spirits and fighting openly and secretly with the Heavenly Masters of Changxi Palace.In the end, Changxi Palace withered and disappeared, the demon market checked and balanced the two worlds, maintaining peace between the humans and demons, while Xuanjiansi was useless and was despised.

Looking at the moment, Huang Yi led everyone into Ruyi Tower and ordered a stern search of the woman in black robe.There was a commotion in the building. The shopkeeper of Ruyi Building appeared and greeted him with a smile.As the deputy of the Cat, she is also a fox demon who has been practicing for hundreds of years. She easily dispelled Huang Yi in just a few words.In the private room upstairs, Gu Changhuai, the young marquis of Yu'an, prepared generous gifts and wanted to marry Wu Zhen in the name of celebrating his birthday, and his greed and lustful attitude was revealed.Unexpectedly, Wu Zhen raised his foot and kicked him out of the railing, which caused an uproar among the people downstairs. Mei Zhuyu from Xuan Jiansi happened to be caught in this scene.

After the situation calmed down, Huzhu stepped into the elegant room, his nose moved slightly, and he smelled a trace of blood that had not yet dissipated. He knew that the cat man must have fought with the monster just now.Although the bat monster escaped, several recent theft cases of wealthy households in Chang'an are all related to the greedy monsters.Therefore, Wu Zhen planned to set up a plan to catch monsters.

As soon as he finished speaking, the maid from the Wu Mansion led someone to carry the gift in, saying that it was given by Empress Wu and that there were famous letters from various men and men, who wanted to choose a son-in-law for Wu Zhen.Wu Zhen had a sudden inspiration and ordered people to release the news: he decided to hold a birthday banquet in Ruyi Tower and invite noble girls from all families to the meeting. He would not accept any birthday gifts, but he had to attend in full dress.Huzhu knew it clearly when she heard this, and understood that she wanted to use the whole house of pearls and jade as bait to attract the greedy monster to take the bait.

Mei Zhuyu learned from her colleagues that if she offended Xu Luan, the envoy of Xuanjian Department, would be transferred to the document warehouse.He was already interested in the mysterious files hidden in the document library, so he deliberately designed to anger Xu Luan and was demoted here as he wished.However, as soon as he stepped into the document library, the Mei family Silang came here in a hurry and took him to Wu Zhen’s birthday party to make up the numbers, and wanted to compete with the Xie family.

The Ruyi Building is very lively.Mei Zhuyu sat at the table and looked through the case file. Her handsome appearance attracted Xie Yao, the wife of the Xie family, to watch frequently.Xie Loubai, the Wulang of the Xie family, regarded himself as a talented man in Chang'an. He led the Xie family's children to provoke the Mei family, especially targeting Mei Zhuyu, and ridiculed him as a branch of the Mei family.Mei Zhuyu retorted, Xie Loubai became angry and ordered the audience to teach him a lesson.

At the critical moment, a feather arrow broke through the air. Wu Zhen showed up with a bow and claimed in public that he admired Mei Zhuyu. He seemed to be helping the scene, but in fact he was secretly observing the spectator and recognizing that the other party was the bat monster who escaped last night.But Batchao strongly denied it.Just as Mei Zhuyu was about to leave with Mei Si, she suddenly heard the sound of cups and cups on the upper floor. When she went upstairs, she saw Wu Zhen in disheveled clothes. She mistakenly thought she was having fun with others and left embarrassedly.

After Mei Zhuyu sent Mei back to her house four times, she returned to the desk warehouse alone in the middle of the night.As soon as I pushed the door, strands of demonic energy oozed out from the rotten bamboo slips, and insects rustled in the dark.He also pinched his fingers, and the talisman shot out from his sleeve, killing the insect demon possessed by the ancient books with his own hands.On the other side, Wu Zhen stepped into the ruins of the deserted temple, and turned the dry well and went to the demon market.She released the bat in her sleeve, and the demon said bluntly that she and the evil bat were originally transformed by a pair of bat-patterned earrings, the male is the Chao and the mother is the Xi.Bat Xi attacked people and seized gold for days, just to find the separated Bat Xi. If we don’t meet again, Bat Xi may fall into a demon.

It is precisely because of this that Wu Zhen summoned his deputy to write without words and asked him to hide his body and follow him.She pretended to report to the officials that she had stolen gold and silver, and led plum blossoms to get pastries for her, while she searched the documents and found the whereabouts of the bat.Mei Zhuyu seemed to be aware of something. Wu Zhen urgently pulled the other party's sleeves to change his attention. He took the opportunity of writing a complaint to look at the cold constable, but his old clothes and robes were steep. He was curious that he had studied hard in the exam for fame and fortune, so why did he have to stay in Xuanjiansi, who had no future and no money.Mei Zhuyu said frankly that if she could eliminate violence and maintain good fortune, what would she do about her future?
