Chapter 120 Kondo Token
"Hey! I have a place to stay here!"
Yang Tiechi, who had been reading the letters at the side, spoke up at the right time.
“It says here that the Wanshen Cult arranged a place for them to stay and several identities to cover their entry into Hengzhou Prefecture.
There are also several other contact points inside, but it has taken a while, and I don’t know if these contact points are still there. It would be great if we could find them earlier and arrest them!"
"Then let's go check it out now."
After saying that, Wu Jing collected the letter on the table and reached for a more conspicuous token on the table.
But as soon as his hand touched the token, it was pressed down by another hand.
At the same time, a voice said coldly: "You can't take this away!" It was Yang Qing's captain Ying Ziming who spoke.
"You! What do you mean? If you hadn't insisted on waiting for him to wake up before checking the storage bag, we would have followed the clues to capture the other hidden remnants of the Pantheon."
“It’s fine for you to take letters and the like, they have different values.
But according to the rules of our Night Patrol, all spoils belong to the person who captures them.
This token may involve some chance or other purposes, so you can only copy the pattern on it as a clue, and you cannot take the token away."
As the captain, Ying Ziming felt that he had an obligation to protect the interests of his teammates. Moreover, the other party's behavior of wanting to take things away without any expression made Ying Ziming a little unhappy.
"Deputy Commander Shen, is this what you mean?" Wu Jing turned around and asked.
"This token looks like some kind of token, its function is unknown. According to the rules of my Night Tour Division, this token does belong to Yang Qing.
Our Night Patrol Division is not like other departments. Apart from fighting against evil spirits, there is almost no profit. Therefore, the spoils occasionally captured on the battlefield belong to the person who captured them.
So, if Yang Qing is willing to give it to you, I have no objection. Otherwise, it would be bad to break this unwritten rule. I hope Commander Wu will forgive me."
"Yang Qing, what do you say?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yang Qing reached out and took the token from the table.
On one side of the token was a totem of fallen leaves in the autumn wind, with the word "Kondo" engraved below, and on the other side was a chrysanthemum pattern. The token felt slightly cool and very heavy in the hand.
Looking closely, this chrysanthemum pattern is very similar to the chief's family emblem from Yang Qing's previous life - the sixteen-petal eight-layer chrysanthemum pattern.
In their country, before 1870, surnames were only owned by the ruling class, such as nobles and high-ranking warriors.
Thinking of this, Yang Qing suddenly guessed the function of this token.
“I’m sorry, I almost died in the battle with the owner of this token. I plan to keep this token as a souvenir of my lucky survival.
As for your government army's pursuit of the Pantheon, I am very happy to cooperate. If you need it, you can make a few copies as my captain said, just in case."
"Humph!"
Wu Jing was rejected three times in a row and his face looked very ugly, but after all, he couldn't tell what the token was used for. It just looked unusual. He thought about taking it away, but didn't want to lose face again.
After signaling one of their men to leave a copy, Wu Jing, Yang Tiechi and others left in a hurry.
After the government soldiers walked away, Shen Xiaoyin took out a cloth bag from the drawer and threw it to Yang Qing.
"Here are 100 first-level Filth Pearls, which are the rewards for killing the Pantheon rebels. Originally, the merit points should have been directly added to your token, but you are not here, so I will give you the Filth Pearls now. You can go to the quartermaster's office to add the points yourself."
Yang Qing took the cloth bag and it felt heavy in his hand.
Afterwards, Shen Xiaoyin comforted Yang Qing a few more words, and after making sure that Yang Qing had recovered well from his injuries, he gave Yang Qing a day off. One day later, Yang Qing had to go out of the city again to hunt down evil spirits.
There is no way. Now the Night Patrol Department and the government army are short of people everywhere.
After leaving Shen Xiaoyin's office, Yang Qing first went to the quartermaster's office. However, he did not go to exchange the Filthy Trace Beads for merit points. Instead, he used his remaining merit points to exchange for a set of steel wire soft armor, as well as a large number of life-saving items commonly used by night watchmen, such as sword and weapon talismans, tiger-overflowing bullets, etc.
Now the things in the quartermaster department have no appeal to Yang Qing at all. Only the Filthy Pearls are hard currency.
After coming out of the Night Patrol, Yang Qing turned around and went to the place where the night watchmen rested. After asking around, Yang Qing quickly found Xin Zhuo, the night watchman who brought him back last night.
"These are for you. If you're lucky, they might help you make it through the one-month deadline. Remember to apply for withdrawal on time."
Xin Zhuo did help Yang Qing a lot last night. At least he called people according to Yang Qing's instructions, and was the first to find Yang Qing by following the marks left by Yang Qing.
Yang Qing had already fainted at that time. Fortunately, it was Xin Zhuo who found and rescued him first, not other evil spirits.
Yang Qing remembered that Xin Zhuo once said that he became a night watchman just for the money to save his life.
Therefore, Yang Qing hopes that he can hold on for a month and "retire" smoothly.
Even because of the blood moon in the sky, Yang Qing still felt that the possibility was not high.
Yang Qing's "great gift" caused a sensation in the night watchman's station, and Xin Zhuo became the first night watchman who could wear steel wire soft armor.
This steel wire soft armor is of appropriate weight and is made of extremely fine steel wire. Wearing it does not affect movement, but it still has a certain defensive effect against attacks from first-level evil spirits.
In private, countless night watchmen were jealous, but when they thought of Yang Qing's identity, all the jealousy turned into envy.
Several night watchmen who have lived longer still remember Yang Qing. This man was a ruthless character who had climbed up step by step from the predicament of a night watchman to his current position as a night watchman.
Even in this night watchman station, a night watchman had died at his hands.
After coming out of the night watchman's station, Yang Qing bought some soft and glutinous pastries and headed straight for his last destination - Hengyue Mountain Martyrs' Shrine.
At this moment, Yang Qing knew that the war was imminent, so he had to finish the things he needed to deal with in advance so that he could concentrate on dealing with the coming night of the blood moon, as well as the Pantheon or the Liu family in the east of the city.
During the battle with Kondo Yuki, Yang Qing learned that their Pantheon had been planning on Hengzhou Prefecture for a long time, and boasted that on the night of the blood moon, at least half of the people in the Night Patrol and the prefectural army would die.
Yang Qing didn't know how much bragging was involved in this, but he was worried about leaving his cheap master alone in the isolated cemetery of heroes outside the city with no defense at all.
Even though this shrine is guarded by the souls of martyrs, no ordinary evil spirit can approach the cemetery.
But that was only what he heard at ordinary times. He didn't know what the specific situation was. With the blood moon in the sky and the Akita clan causing trouble, Yang Qing was really worried about leaving an old man there alone.
He wanted to send Old Man Nie to another town.
Half an hour later, Yang Qing, wrapped in bandages, met his cheap master in the cemetery.
