Hidden Corners

Thinking about these chores, Li Chengyi and the other three successfully paid and entered the county town.

Walking on the street which is far more lively than the town.

"Let's find a place to live first, and then sign up." Wang Yifeng said with a smile, "I found a place for you to live in advance. It's a house that my old friend has vacated and can't live in. It happens to be rented to me cheaply. It only costs twelve a year. Two pieces of silver."

According to the currency calculation of about ten to one, this is one thousand and twelve years, which is naturally relaxing for Wang Yifeng.

His annual salary is nearly thirty taels of silver, not to mention other gray income.

Adding up the seven, seven, eight and eight, he can earn as much as fifty taels a year.

"I'll pay you one year's rent first, and then you have to pay it with your own salary, you know?" Wang Yifeng warned.

"Understood." Li Chengyi nodded.

After pretending to be separated from Liu Mingyang, the two father and son went all the way deep into the county town and found Yuantuanfang, which was located between two drug stores on a place called Lufeng Street.

"The management of private housing in the county is very strict. Everyone who lives in the house must be registered. It is divided into units. Don't wander around if you have nothing to do. Many houses are almost isolated. In case the city guard who is patrolling encounters , please explain."

Wang Yifeng warned.

"I know." Li Chengyi had already inquired about these situations and nodded in agreement.

"I have said hello to the head of Yuanyuanfang in advance. I will buy some gifts and visit him when I have time. I can also take care of him if anything happens. In addition, the government usually posts various information at the public notice at the entrance of the square. If you want to If you want to change a house, buy something, find someone, etc., you can go to the public notice office and post it.

But remember to pay the speaker. Because many people are illiterate, a preacher needs to preach in public every day. If you don’t pay, that’s fine, but he won’t read it to you. They will even tear it up for you secretly. "

Wang Yifeng imparted his experience of living and studying here.

"I think this is where I spent my precious six years."

The two of them walked along the intersection. The path was narrow at first, but then gradually became wider.

The ground is paved with thick black mud boards, and on both sides are households with wooden doors and windows.

Some people even set up bamboo poles in the road to dry clothes and quilts.

Two boys with ingot heads were chasing a white butterfly around the corner with their bare buttocks on.

Wow.

At the door of a house, a plump woman with half-breasted breasts poured out the foot-washing water into the middle of the road, soaking the ground.

Wang Yifeng and the two walked across the wet mud, and the woman even gave them a wink.

"Well, there are such things in every shop. Have you seen the black wood branch hanging on the door? That's a widow. Stay away from her." Wang Yifeng whispered.

"Most of these widows have no way to find a good livelihood. The world is difficult, so they can only survive by sewing and living in darkness." He sighed without saying much.

But Li Chengyi keenly discovered that the widow's eyes seemed to fall more on Wang Yifeng.

She seems to know Wang Captou

Thinking of it, it only takes half an hour for this guy to come to the county seat.

Li Chengyi suddenly had an idea and looked strange.

After walking along the path for a few minutes, the two soon arrived at a single-family house with a yard.

This house is a little different from the surrounding houses, and its grade is obviously higher.

The wall made of black stone bricks is three meters high, completely surrounding the yard and forming a separate space.

"That's it."

Wang Yifeng took out the key, unlocked the door, and entered.

Li Chengyi followed closely behind. The moment he entered the door, his heart suddenly moved and he looked back behind him.

There seemed to be something there that was watching him just now.

But when he looked back, the other party had already dodged.

After putting down their luggage, the two left their residence and came to the county magistrate's mansion together.

The registration point for the Shenwu Division was right inside the mansion. After taking out the recommendation letter, Li Chengyi successfully qualified for the assessment.

Wang Yifeng went back satisfied.

Although he said that the test was difficult, in fact, he had absolute confidence in the third son's strength.

The assessment time is noon the day after tomorrow.

Li Chengyi settled down in Yuyuanfang with peace of mind.

In two days, his energy became stronger and stronger.

For him, one day is equivalent to 240 days of cultivation for ordinary people, and three days is equivalent to two years of hard work for others.

Such progress caused the pine lines on his Qi to increase rapidly.

At the same time, the problem of the density of the pine grain qi being too thin was also solved with the help of the Qiyi Holy Spirit Kung Fu.

Everything is going in the right direction.

Two days later.

County governor's office, Shenwuyuan.

On the spacious gray school field, a total of fifteen people took part in the assessment, standing side by side in the middle, facing the assessment platform, with their heads held high and their chests motionless.

The sun is high, and it's hot at noon.

The fifteen people were dressed in different clothes and wore various weapons. Only a very small number like Li Chengyi did not have any weapons.

The assessment platform is a wooden shed simply built with wooden boards, tables and chairs.

There were three middle-aged men and women wearing military officer uniforms sitting inside.

The two male generals and one female general are all older, with an average age of over forty.

The three of them are the generals in charge of the assessment this time, and they are also the main persons in charge of the Shenwu Department of the County Governor.

The person in charge of the Shenwu Division is usually named after the local standard plus a master. This is the Xue Shou Division.

The county leader here is the mustachioed military general Fu Ran sitting in the middle. This man has a thick waist, round arms, and a tall build. He carries two silver and black giant axes on his back. At first glance, he is a powerful warrior.

At this time, he looked at the fifteen people standing on the field and said loudly.

"For the annual assessment, this year it's you. The number of people is a bit small. Among the twenty towns under this county, there are still five towns that no one recommends."

"But don't be happy. The Shenwu Division only admitted four people this year, so eleven of you will be eliminated and returned to your place of origin."

Li Chengyi stood quietly in the team, listening to the other party talk about the general internal situation of Shenwu Division.

When the entire Shenwu Division was dispatched, unlike the City Guards, their main task was to clean up the aftermath after the experts from the Blood Guard Division solved the case.

Therefore, most of the time, we need to face the attacks of the remaining monsters, dispel the doubts and noises of the people, solve the pollution of the poisonous blood, and may even have to face the loss of control of the Blood Guard Division itself.

Therefore, the selection of Shenwu Division is relatively strict in order to reduce unnecessary casualties.

Within the Shenwu Division, every place is divided into five fixed levels.

Ordinary Shenwu sergeants are team leader, team leader, deputy leader, and chief leader.

This is at the county level, so naturally the deputy county chief and county chief are the main persons in charge.

There are usually two deputy chiefs. There can only be one rightful owner.

There can be multiple brigades under the company, with no limit on the number, depending on the specific local needs.

"Of course, I understand your desire to make achievements. Our Shenwu Division also has a similar assessment and promotion system." County Lord Fu Ran continued loudly.

"Our actions mainly depend on the difficulty of the tasks given by the Blood Guard Division."

"The classification is the most basic level four, Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang. You can go to the team building to see the specific credit details later. Now, let's start the first item of the assessment, true energy!"

Ren Ran looked to the left and right.

"The two people beside me are our deputy county chief Lin Daquan and deputy county chief Xie Chengyan of Cangshi County. As long as two or more of the three of us are approved, you can officially join the Shenwu Division."

"Sir, if a player is much stronger than the team member, how should we deal with it?" Suddenly a voice interjected.

Fu Ran was stunned and looked around. He was a tall, strong young man with black hair and sharp eyebrows. He was not handsome, but there was a sharpness and confidence between his eyebrows.

"Wang Yichen, right?" Fu Ran smiled.

"This is a good question. In fact, our Shenwu Division also has an invisible rule, that is, the one with the first strength will get the upper hand.

If you are strong enough, you can directly move into a regular position in the team. As for getting higher, it requires not only strength, but also comprehensive qualities such as adapting to the situation. Then you can only improve by completing tasks. "

"Thank you, sir." Li Chengyi said, cupping his fists.

"Very good. Now, let's start with you first. Show your true energy." Fu Ran smiled.

Li Chengyi took a step forward, and his whole body quickly lit up with white infuriating energy.

"The true qi I cultivate is called Songwen Qi. It is the core of the Songlu Sword Technique passed down from my family. It does not enter the level. The total amount of true qi is... forty years of cultivation."

"How much?!" Fu Ran's eyes lit up and he asked again.

Li Chengyi quickly repeated it.

This time everyone heard it clearly, and there was a faint uproar.

"You are nineteen years old, right? At this age, you can practice for forty years, and you are very talented! At what age did you start practicing Qi?" Lin Daquan, the deputy county chief on the side, was moved and asked proactively.

"Nine years old." Li Chengyi replied casually.

It was too shocking to achieve forty years of cultivation in less than one year, so before leaving, Wang Yifeng told him to try to make up a normal genius answer.

From the age of nine to nineteen, it takes ten years to develop skills for forty years. Although such geniuses are rare, they still exist.

At least they won't be treated as weirdos and studied.

"Okay, okay!!" Fu Ran laughed.

"Very good! From today on, you will be our fifth brigade commander in Cangshi County!"

In this world, force is the best talisman to ensure safety, and everything else is empty.

"yes."

Li Chengyi was not surprised and responded calmly with clasped fists.

The other fourteen assessors focused their envious gazes on him, but all of them had nothing to say.

At most, they only have a few years or more of Qi cultivation. Compared with exaggerated geniuses like Li Chengyi, the gap is too big.

Before the assessment was over, Li Chengyi was taken alone to receive his team uniform, weapons and armor.

At the same time, the information and channels he valued finally appeared.

The Shenwu Division has its own channel to obtain information, which is derived from the Shaoyin Kingdom's unique Yaren Mansion organization.

Like the Shenwu Division, the Yaren Mansion is also a department dedicated to providing intelligence to the Blood Guard Division and the Shenwu Division.

Intelligence is divided into two categories: public and private.

Public information does not cost money and can be browsed at will.

Private information requires money to purchase, but it has an internal price.

In addition, salaries corresponding to various levels, some practical props, medicines, warning fireworks, etc. are also distributed.

After Li Chengyi learned about the location of the Yaren Mansion's organizational base in Cangshi County, he went there as soon as possible.

With his waist card, he can enjoy a 20% discount.

What he wants is all the information about the Symphony Dragon, and at the same time, he also needs information about the real top masters in the world.

This is the core purpose of his joining the official team.

There was also the question of whether that divine determination was the one he had encountered before.

By the way, you also need to check the information on the flowers of various flower gods, which can be used for early prevention and later evolution and supplementary repair of the flower scale clothing.

With the support of official official intelligence agencies, he can instantly know the information about the entire Shaoyin Kingdom.

Although the high-end ones are not enough, most of the information he wants is not high-end and belongs to common sense.
