That's much more the sort of work that should be getting done by witch hunters, an inquisition or similar semi-centralised agency of government, not a bunch of random people who happen to face peril for pocket change.
The issue for me boils down to; if adventuring is common enough to be a profession as opposed to sellsword/mercenary/bounty hunter/bailiff/busybody, the land must be so riddled with problems it probably doesn't deserve to be saved even if it can be.
