Merely two or three days later, the Demon Suppression Department in the Capital received a pigeon-carried message from Ba Shu.
The Demon Suppression Department was stunned. Homing pigeons were not creatures that could be raised just anywhere, like in any house or even an underground lair; they were trained to follow sophisticated routes to return to their nests. In the past, the pigeons raised by Ba Shu's Demon Suppression Department would only fly back to the original site of the Department, which amounted to delivering themselves right into Li Shentong's hands. After going into hiding, the Department had absolutely no way to train homing pigeons, so what was the deal with this unexpected pigeon from Ba Shu?
Qin Dingjiang removed the scroll tied to the pigeon's leg, broke the seal, and his eyes widened. He immediately rushed to find Tang Wanju, "Head, Head! A letter from Ba Shu!"
Ba Shu? Tang Wanju paused, then smiled slightly, "Why be alarmed? Give it here for me to see."
