Great Xuanwu Sheng Chapter 143

Chapter 143 Missed

  Nancheng District.

 9 miles.

Located in a restaurant on the main street, the place is crowded and very lively. The first floor is basically full, and half of the private seats and private rooms on the second floor are not empty. They are filled with figures wearing long gowns quietly chatting. of eating and drinking.

This restaurant was a newly opened restaurant two months ago. Because the location is almost the best part of the market, there are a lot of pedestrians passing by. It is also completely opposite to the streets where garbage is accumulated in the market. In addition, there is no need to worry about it on weekdays. No gangsters come here to harass, let alone make trouble, so the business has been very good in only two months, and it is full every day.

 Such a good business.

However, there are no local gangs or other forces interested in him. Not to mention collecting "settlement fees" and "living fees", he has never even come to visit. Occasionally, the Xiang leader and even the deputy gang leader of the Chijin Gang come here to eat and treat him well. The restaurant owners are also polite and polite, without any of their usual domineering or arrogant attitude.

What's more, even the guards in Kujoli patrol here intentionally or unintentionally every day, with bright eyes, almost as if they are waiting for anyone who dares to cause trouble and immediately take action.

 It is impossible to make such a living without a background.

Whenever people look at this prosperous restaurant from a distance, they can't help but sigh that Butcher Zhang is really lucky. He was just a butcher, and he married an ordinary wife, but he ended up with a nephew who has made a career at a young age. He successively served as a chaotou and a chaplain, and then went to the inner city and entered the Demon Slayer Division. He was a big shot that ordinary people could not imagine.

Even though Chen Mu didn't take much care of Butcher Zhang's family, and only took more care of Chen Hong, the third aunt, he couldn't withstand the continuous rise in his status, and various gentry forces took the initiative to make friends with Butcher Zhang.

 In just a few years.

Butcher Zhang's family also bought real estate, changed their residence, and opened this restaurant two months ago. They suddenly changed from a butcher who killed pigs to a wealthy owner who owns a restaurant and makes a lot of money every day. It can be said that It's a world of difference.

In the innermost room on the second floor of the restaurant, there is a table with some account books stacked on top of it. Behind the account book is a woman, who is lying there with a slight frown, carefully calculating each stroke. Account books.

 Compared to a few years ago, the childishness on Zhang Youying's face has completely faded.

She recorded each account in detail, calculated it with an abacus, and then picked up a brush to record it one by one.

 Suddenly.

There was a burst of firecrackers outside the restaurant, crackling continuously, and it seemed to be very festive and lively. The noisy sound was transmitted into the hut, which made Zhang Youying frown, her thoughts were disturbed and she couldn't calculate, so she put down her brush and looked outside.

Just as a boy came up the stairs with a smile on his face, he asked him:

“What's going on outside? Whose family is getting married?”

 Firecrackers are considered a valuable thing these days. Common people cannot afford to use them. They use bamboo joints to beat them. If you can afford so many firecrackers, if you are getting married, you must be from a wealthy family in Kutiao.

At this time, the boy's face was glowing red, and he took advantage of the break between firecrackers to say: "It's a great event! I heard that the boss's relative, Mr. Chen, has been promoted to the position of Mr. Du Si of the Supervision Department! Boss Zhang has brought a lot of firecrackers. If you play it outside, I don't think it will take half an hour to finish it. I don't know how big an official Mr. Dusi must be..."

 Zhang Youying was stunned when she heard what the boy said.

 The Supervision Department Dusi…

The waiter in the restaurant may not know much about it, but she does know a thing or two. It is a newly established government office in the inner city. It was established by a big shot from the state capital. Its current authority and status are even higher than Above the city lord of Yu City.

The Chief of the Supervision Department is a very powerful figure in the Supervision Department. He is not comparable to the "Chasi" below. The difference is incalculable. His status is so high and his authority is so great that he can supervise and control almost the entire industry. Regarding all matters in Yucheng and even Yujun, even the city lord and governor of Yujun may have to give in.

 It is already one of the truly top positions in Yucheng.

he…

 Chen Mu…

Has it reached that level?

Although since Chen Mu rose to prominence, step by step from being a bad guy to being a sergeant to joining the Demon Slayer Division, countless people have said that Chen Mu's future will be extraordinary, and she has no doubt about it, but the Supervision Division Chief... It has only been a few years. Year?

 Zhang Youying looked back at the pile of account books in confusion.

Now, she seems to have gotten what she wanted. She can keep accounts every day and doesn't have to worry about food and clothing expenses. But for some reason, she has an unspeakable emotion in her heart.

Own,

What did you miss?

Yu County.

 North of Jingyu County.

In the midst of the dense mountain forest, a group of people dragged a huge, red body of a bull out of the forest, and then cut down the trees to make a simple vehicle frame.

In front of the huge corpse of this wild bull, Xue Lin stood there wearing the uniform of the Deputy Chief of the Demon Slaying Division. There was still a little blood on his body, but there was a slight smile on his face.

 This bull demon is extraordinary, ranked fourth level!

This is the first 'fourth level' monster he has hunted since he was promoted to the deputy chief of the Demon Slaying Department. Although this 'fourth level' may have to be preceded by the word 'accurate', it is also completely superior to the third level. monster.

To be able to kill this demon, although there were a large number of demon-slaying masters who gathered together to besiege him, Xue Lin was the one who was more likely to kill him. He took a big step forward in martial arts, finally understood the artistic conception of "Li Huo", and was finally able to kill him. !

"When your Excellency returns to Yucheng this time, I'm afraid I will be able to remove the word 'vice' and be promoted to the title of Dusi." A white-clothed guard of the Xue family next to him had a little reverence in his eyes and couldn't help but compliment him.

Xue Lin smiled faintly and said: "It's hard to say. Now the three capital positions in the Demon Slaying Division are all full, and no one will step down for the time being. Although I understand Lihuo's artistic conception, I want the Demon Slaying Division to add another capital position. But it's also difficult.”

"Whether we add more or not, it's all temporary. With your talents and qualifications, looking at the entire Yu County, except for the four major sects, no one in the younger generation can compare. It is only a matter of time before you are promoted to the capital."

 Another guard in white clothes next to him echoed.

"Um."

Xue Lin nodded slightly.

Although there is only one word difference between Deputy Dusi and Dusi, the gap is not small in terms of status or other aspects. For example, there are some relatively precious things in the Demon Slayer Division. Even if the Deputy Dusi has enough merits, he is not qualified to redeem them. Only Zheng Dusi can do it.

For him, now that he has mastered the artistic conception of Lihuo, it is indeed only a matter of time before he can take the body tempering method one step further, reach the bone forging mastery, and even reach perfection later on, and be promoted to Zhengdusi.

even.

There is no chance in the future to take a look at the position of the head of the Demon Slaying Department, which is the key position to connect the Qixuan Sect and Yu County. In the past, people from the Qixuan Sect were appointed to serve, but if he is talented It is enough. In the future, if you step into the realm of the five internal organs and attract some attention from the Qixuan Sect, you may not be unable to take on the role. At that time, the power of the Xue family will also further advance.

Xue Lin felt relaxed for a moment. He looked up at the blue sky and couldn't help but think of someone else.

 Chen Mu.

It's strange to say that he had never looked at this person before, let alone paid attention to him. He only thought that he was Xu Hongyu's 'follower' like Ning He. You should know that he didn't even care about Xu Hongyu, let alone Talk about Xu Hongyu's follower.

Who would have thought that during the Great Drought Demon Rebellion, the inconspicuous Chen Mu suddenly showed his artistic conception ability. Although he did not attract much attention due to the major incident of the four sects entering Yu County, he was very concerned about this. Frowning.

because.

At that time, he had not yet grasped the artistic conception.

So much so that he felt that someone would put Chen Mu and him together to evaluate who is the leader of the younger generation in Yu County. Although he did not think that he would be weaker than Chen Mu when he entered the bone forging realm, after all, He did not grasp the artistic conception and was not convincing.

Furthermore, he thought about the fact that he had met Chen Mu earlier. He looked like an inconspicuous follower standing next to Ning He, and suddenly turned into someone who could be compared with him, which also made him feel upset.

But now, he has finally realized the artistic conception of Lihuo. Now that the artistic conception is in his body, and he also has the cultivation of the Bone Forging Realm, no one can shake his position as the number one young person in Yu County. Only the four major sects can Only a disciple can compete with him.

　Today.

Xue Lin felt at ease, and all the worries he had felt earlier were completely gone.

But just as a group of people cut down trees to make a simple vehicle frame, placed the giant bull demon body, and were preparing to take it back to the nearest Jingyu County for disposal, suddenly a figure came running towards them from a distance. .

"Um?"

Xue Lin's eyes flickered slightly when he saw the person coming. He was a member of the Xue family. He did not belong to the Demon Slayer Division and was responsible for passing on information. He came all the way and didn't know what happened.

 The vehicle frame of a group of people stopped temporarily.

Soon, the Xue family's spy who passed on the information ran up to Xue Lin. There seemed to be a bit of shock in his eyes, and said: "Sir, Yucheng has reported that Chen Mu, the former white-clothed guard of the Demon Slayer Division, has been promoted to supervisor. Sidusi, and add a 'dusi' position to the Demon Slaying Department, who will also serve as the Dusi of the Demon Slaying Department!”

 What the hell?

Xue Lin was in a daze for a moment.

　　From the white-clothed guard of the Demon Slaying Department to the Supervisor of the Supervisory Department, he has already been promoted several levels in a row, which is almost outrageous. He also specially added another Dusi of the Demon Slaying Department. Could it be that Chen Mu and the Supervisory Envoy Yan Jingqing have a godfather? !

"impossible!"

 “Absolutely impossible!”

The white-clothed guard next to him frowned and said: "Although Chen Mu of the Yu family has some talents, with his ability, being promoted to the deputy capital of the Demon Slaying Department is already a promotion. To serve as the Supervisory Department and the Demon Slaying Department's capital at the same time is simply nonsense. Talk!”

The spy took a deep breath at this time, calmed down the restless energy and blood that was running at full speed, and secretly glanced at Xue Lin, who had a strange expression, but still said: "The city lord said that Chen Mu is young and mature, and he is very tolerant. , acts calmly and decisively. Judging from the fact that he has entered the realm of bone forging and mastered the two artistic conceptions of Xunfeng Zhenlei, his practice has already been successful, but he has been holding back. If the He family hadn't been hit by a gun several times, , forcing him to take action, perhaps it is still difficult for anyone to know the root cause. It is a pity that the Xue family failed to foresee it at the time and recruited him to their subordinates..."

The voice fell.

There was a moment of silence in the field.

 A group of white-clothed guards and the elite troops of the Xue family all looked at each other in confusion, as if they were listening to a book from heaven.

 Forging bones? The artistic conception of wind and thunder?

Didn't it mean that this person came from a lower class background and only started practicing martial arts when he was more than 20 years old? He has only been practicing martial arts for four or five years now? If this person really has cultivated to such a level in just four or five years...then what kind of monster is this person!
