Ink panel: Hunting the sun and surveying the sky from the bow

A cold wind suddenly blew at the gate of the county government.

Shen Qing was wearing a cotton-padded jacket from the Weiwu Division. The edge of the hem was covered with tiny blood-colored ice crystals, and even one of his cheeks was covered with blood drops.

Anyone could see that he had just killed someone.

The two gatekeepers standing at the gate did not dare to let him in casually.

"Please show me your ID card." One of the gatekeepers said, with his hands tucked back into his sleeves, holding his weapon, revealing only his red nose tip and a pair of vigilant eyes.

Shen Qing took out a finely carved jade plate from his arms, which was engraved with his name and official title, and handed it over.

The gatekeeper took the jade plate and carefully identified it in the dim light next to the door, his expression gradually becoming respectful.

"It turns out to be Mr. Shen from the Shen Police Department. Excuse me."

Shen Qing took back his ID card, tightened his cloak and asked: "Excuse me, where are the commander of the army and the chief of the police department now?"

The gatekeeper stamped his feet, looked embarrassed when he heard this, and explained: "Mr. Shen, it's a coincidence that the commander of the army and the chief of the police department went out to inspect the city defense early this morning. They said they wanted to personally check the defense situation outside the city and are expected to return in the afternoon. Do you think you need to leave a message or wait for them to come back?"

Shen Qing frowned slightly when he heard this. His trip was of great importance and time was tight, but he did not expect that the two people in charge were not present.

"In this case, I will go into the government office and wait."

Now he and Zheng Yuanqiu have completely torn their faces, and it may not be safer outside than in this county government office.

As long as Zheng Yuanqiu didn't understand the situation here, he didn't dare to act rashly.

Otherwise, when the time comes, the mud falling from the crotch will be shit, and it will be hard to tell even if you have a mouth.

The gatekeeper quickly put down the spear in his hand, bowed, and then quickly stepped forward to push open the heavy gate of the county government for Shen Qing.

Shen Qing walked into the county government and instantly felt much warmer. It was in sharp contrast to the severe cold outside the door.

As he said, Shen Qing took out a silver ingot from his arms, stuffed it into the gatekeeper's hand, and said: "Please help me keep an eye on it, and if they come back, report it to me immediately."

"Don't worry, Lord Shen, I will do my best." The gatekeeper quickly agreed, and then led Shen Qing to the warm room to wait, and ordered people to prepare hot tea and snacks to relieve the winter cold.

Shen Qing sat in the warm room, looking at the heavy snow outside the window, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

It's the end of the year, and the investigation should have been completed long ago. How can there be so much to investigate. Why not investigate it earlier or later, but at this time?

If he guessed correctly, the two of them were out for socializing.

They should be back around noon.

Being in the county, Shen Qing's tense mind finally relaxed at this time, and he took out the purse from Zheng Yuanqiu.

Shen Qing poured it into his hand.

The six wish beads rolled down his palm.

They only get one wish bead per year. If his position does not change in the future, he will have to wait for six years to get these six wish beads.

Shen Qing secretly estimated that among these six wish beads, one was his original one, four should be Zheng Yuanqiu's original salary, and one might be pried from the dead Xi Shaoqin's quota.

Now it's all cheap for him.

This time he took the risk to confront Zheng Yuanqiu face to face, which was worth it.

He has been stuck in the Qi Hai realm for four or five months now.

After this period of continuous nourishment with medicinal food, coupled with the improvement of panel capabilities, he is now almost one step away from the Qi Sea Realm to the Jade Meridian Realm.

The so-called Jade Meridian Realm is that the martial artist further compresses the whole body's true qi into a slurry through continuous practice, filling the whole body's veins, and transforming the Qi Sea into the True Sea.

When the martial artists who reach this realm circulate their true qi, crystal light will appear on the whole body's veins, just like real jade, so it is called the Jade Meridian Realm.

In the Jade Meridian Realm, the whole body's true qi is condensed and can be controlled by qi.

Although it is not as good as the innate rainbow light control, it is also above the ordinary.

Looking at the entire Great Zhou Kingdom, even in a county city, he is considered a big shot.

Now it's still early and there's nothing to do.

Shen Qing, who has seen the terrifying strength of the innate, is unwilling to miss this free opportunity and plans to use the wish beads to sprint through the bottleneck of the Jade Meridian Realm.

He is a little insecure now.

Even if he can improve a little bit more, he can feel at ease.

He did what he said.

Shen Qing put the extra wish beads back into his purse, leaving only one behind.

Looking at the white bead in his hand, Shen Qing could vaguely feel the huge wish power contained in it.

He took a deep breath, took out the bead refining method he carried with him, stuck it on his dantian, and gently held up the wish bead with both hands.

Shen Qing's mind moved, and the bead refining method started to work automatically. The true energy in his body rushed like a river, gathered between his hands, and produced a subtle resonance with the wish bead.

The surface of the wish bead gradually emitted a soft light, which intertwined and merged with Shen Qing's true energy to form a majestic force.

All the spiritual energy in this world gathered towards Shen Qing's location.

Shen Qing's pores opened all over his body, greedily absorbing this spiritual energy.

As these spiritual energies entered, the true energy in his sea of ​​qi began to rotate and compress wildly, as if being pulled by an invisible force, condensing into a slurry bit by bit, exuding a warm and jade-like luster.

…

On the street.

Xu Changle followed closely according to the location transmitted by the paper crane.

When he saw the corpses, his face became more and more ugly.

These people were all masters of the Yangqi Realm secretly cultivated by their Huangtian Sect, and they were the ones who took the path of martial arts.

They didn't even have the ability to stop Shen Qing!

At this moment, Xu Changle realized that Shen Qing was a little unusual and difficult to deal with.

But he was not without a way.

So far, his identity has not been exposed.

That is to say, he can still get close to the other party. With his cultivation in the Qihai Realm, he can take advantage of his unpreparedness and attack him at that time. He is 70% sure that he can succeed.

When he succeeds in killing him, he can make up the rest of the reasons, and all crises will be solved naturally.

Judging from the situation over there with General Zheng, this Shen is very good at controlling human nature.

Don't have any unnecessary negotiations with him at that time, and act decisively.

Xu Changle secretly reminded himself in his heart and walked towards the county government office.

After a while, he arrived at the gate of the county government office, reported a reason calmly, and after verifying his identity, he entered the county government office unimpeded.

He asked with a tone that was three parts intentional and seven parts unintentional: "I just saw that Shen Chasi also came before me. Where is he now?"

"Sir Shen? He is in the warm room now." Si Guan replied without thinking too much.

"Oh, that's perfect. I have something to find him." Xu Changle said casually: "You guys go and do your work. I'll go by myself."

"Okay, then I won't bother you."

After sending Si Guan away, Xu Changle's face instantly turned cold and he walked quickly towards the warm room.

In the warm room.

Shen Qing sat on a chair, and a vortex of spiritual energy formed with him as the center, constantly drilling into his body.

Boom!

Finally, the true energy in his body reached a critical value.

In a crisp roar, Shen Qing's sea of ​​qi completely transformed and turned into a true sea, vast and boundless, deep and unfathomable.

At this moment, the veins in his body were also filled with liquid true energy, crystal clear, like a real jade carving, flashing with dazzling light.

Shen Qing slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were full of brilliance, and his whole body exuded an indescribable momentum.

"It's done!"

Shen Qing's face was full of incredible joy. He knew that he was only one step away from the Jade Meridian Realm. He didn't expect that under the effect of the Wish Pearl, he could successfully break through to the Jade Meridian Realm so easily! ! !

Shen Qing stood up, feeling the new power surging in his body, a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he felt a lot more at ease.

"Very good. Now I can't say that I can kill Zheng Yuanqiu, but at least I will definitely not be as embarrassed as I was just now."

Just then, there was a sound of footsteps outside the warm room door, and someone pushed the door open, interrupting his thoughts.
