Chapter 263: Chapter 263 Xu Xinnian: I keep meeting psychopaths today

Chapter 263: Chapter 263 Xu Xinnian: I keep meeting psychopaths todayIn a small courtyard, Taoist Master Jinlian collected the fragments of the Earth Book and frowned in silence.

Everyone in the Earth Book chat group is a person with great fortune, and he doesn't want to see any one of them being harmed.

"The battle between heaven and man is the business of the elders. There is no need to fight for life and death between the younger generations. If we don't intervene, with Li Miaozhen's stubbornness and No. 4's sharpness, I'm afraid one will die and one will be injured.

"It is not convenient for our Earth Sect to intervene in the battle between heaven and man. No. 6 is not good at speaking, and No. 1's identity is inconvenient... It's better to push Xu Qian'an out to smooth things over. Let him intervene in the battle between heaven and man and weaken the hostile atmosphere between Li Miaozhen and No. 4. This way, he can give an explanation to the sect and there is no need to fight for life and death.

"But his cultivation is a bit weak, and he is not qualified to intervene in the battle between Li Miaozhen and No. 4, unless he can cultivate to bronze skin and iron bones in a short period of time."

It is really difficult to cultivate to bronze skin and iron bones in a short period of time. Taoist Jinlian was worried for a while, and after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't come up with a suitable idea, until a shrill cat cry came from the yard.

.... After a while, an orange cat left happily, with its tail erected high.

In the room, Taoist Jinlian was lying on the bed, with a peaceful face.

.......

After breakfast, Xu Qi'an rode a small mare and took Zhong Li to the night watchman's office.

"I can't guarantee that you can enter the night watchman's office, especially the Haoqi Building." Xu Qi'an turned his head and said to Zhong Li beside him.

She didn't ride a horse, but followed the mare step by step, strolling leisurely as if taking a walk after dinner.

A magic that can shrink the earth into an inch... Xu Qi'an saw it and envied it silently.

As soon as he stepped into the night watchman's office, a silver gong came out with a dozen copper gongs and bumped into Xu Qi'an.

The silver gong stopped to greet him, and noticed Zhong Li, who had disheveled hair and was wearing a linen robe, and asked, "Is this a jianghu person who has violated the law? Why isn't he tied up?"

Xu Qian'an was stunned, and asked carefully, "Why do you say that?"

The silver gong explained, "You were not on duty yesterday, so you don't know. Duke Wei issued a notice yesterday. In three months, the battle between heaven and man will take place once every sixty years.

"Before that, the outstanding disciples of the Ren Sect and the Tian Sect will take the lead in the competition. For many jianghu heroes, this is a once-in-a-lifetime event.

"Therefore, many jianghu people came here to see the decisive battle between the disciples of the Tian and Ren Sects. Colleagues in the government office are guarding the city gate, registering the jianghu people entering the city, and identifying possible spies from other countries."

Hmm? So the status of No. 4 and No. 2 in the jianghu is so high... I didn't realize it at all. Maybe it's because I'm the second generation of eunuchs... Xu Qian'an nodded and said goodbye to the silver gong.

He arranged Zhong Li in Li Yuchun's Chunfeng Hall, and went to Haoqi Tower himself.

Zhong Li was the fifth disciple of Jianzheng, and her status was quite noble, but it was useless, she could not see Wei Yuan.

After the guards informed him, Xu Qiyan went up to the tea room on the seventh floor.

Wei Yuan stood in front of the huge feng shui map, still wearing the same green robe, his hair was simply tied up with a black jade hairpin, his hands behind his back, and his sleeves hanging down.

In terms of temperament, appearance, and talent, Wei Yuan is the best among the middle- aged and elderly people Xu Qiyan has seen. As for the younger generation, Erlang and Nangong Qianrou are the best in terms of appearance.

But in terms of comprehensive strength, Xu Qiyan felt that Xu Dalang was better and was the well-deserved leader.

"Your appointment letter is on the table. Take it to the Ministry of Literature later to get the relevant badge and uniform."

Wei Yuan did not turn around, but just pointed to the table.

Xu Qi'an looked at the desk and saw a promotion document with Wei Yuan's seal.

Wei Yuan had the final say in the night watch. He could promote or demote anyone he wanted. Therefore, Xu Qi'an was not worried about his promotion to Yinluo.

"After becoming Yinluo, you don't have to go out to patrol the streets. You can sit in the hall and have more free time." Wei Yuan hinted, "You have good talent and you shouldn't spend your time on official business."

This is the first time I have seen a boss who said to his employees, "You shouldn't waste your time on trivial matters like going to work.".... Xu Qi'an only regretted that he didn't meet such a good leader in his previous life and worked diligently as a social animal for nearly ten years.

He picked up the promotion document and was about to say goodbye when he heard Wei Yuan say, "Don't rush to leave. The disciples of the Renzong and Tianzong will have a decisive battle soon. I'm afraid that the capital will not be peaceful during this period. There will inevitably be people from the underworld who cause trouble and fight."

"I understand. I will maintain the security of the inner city." Xu Qi'an said immediately.

Wei Yuan nodded slowly and continued, "You have had contact with Li Miaozhen in Yunzhou. What do you think of her?"

Li Miaozhen's identity as a disciple of Tianzong was confessed to Governor Zhang and Jiang Luzhong in Baidi City. After Xu Qi'an died in the battle, Governor Zhang sent a letter back to the capital during the bandit suppression process, elaborating on the outstanding contributions made by Li Miaozhen, a disciple of Tianzong, in the bandit suppression.

I beg the court to grant her an official position.

Of course, the result was rejected. Luo Yuheng is the national teacher of Dafeng, and Renzong and Tianzong are incompatible. This is not a joke.

My feelings about her... Xu Qi'an thought about it and felt that one sentence could summarize it: I took off my battle robe with the general and spent the night in the warm hibiscus tent.

"It's just two disciples. Lord Wei shouldn't care so much, right?" Xu Qi'an said.

"The attitude between disciples determines the attitude of the elders." Wei Yuan came back to his senses, looked at him, and said in a serious tone:

"The Taoist leader of Tianzong is a first-rank."

Xu Qi'an was shocked and not shocked by this answer. Among the three sects of Taoism, Tianzong is the most powerful. The Taoist leaders of Renzong and Dizong are second-rank. If Tianzong does not have a first-rank, how can it be strong?

But in this case, wouldn't Luo Yuheng of Renzong be defeated?

Xu Qi'an didn't care about Luo Yuheng's chances of winning. He understood Wei Yuan's meaning. If this contest between disciples could not be handled properly, the Taoist leaders of Tianren and Tianzong would probably fight to the death.

The first and second ranks are the top combat power in the world. Even Wei Yuan, who is as wise as a demon, dare not be careless, and the bottom-line figure of Dafengjing City, Jianzheng, is only a first-rank.

"Mr. Wei, there is something I haven't told you yet." Xu Qi'an planned to report the inside

story of Tiandihui.

Wei Yuan said "um" and didn't speak.

"Then Li Miaozhen is a member of the Tiandihui, in charge of the No. 2 fragment. And the

disciple sent by the Renzong should be the first swordsman in the capital that you have

evaluated." Xu Qiyan reported.

This news was beyond Wei Yuan's expectations. He left the geomancy map, returned to the table and sat down, and said in a deep voice: "Talk about it."

Xu Qiyan immediately recounted the chat records of the "Dishu Chat Group" last night.

"Your news is very timely." Wei Yuan nodded in appreciation.

His "favor" for this bronze gong is very complex and has many factors. The first is the

character, that is, the character is trustworthy and guaranteed. The second is talent. The

talent shown by Xu Qiyan is worthy of his vigorous cultivation.

Then there is personality, which is different from the character. Xu Qiyan's personality is very good at dealing with things. He is smart, slick, knows how to flatter, but has his own

principles.

The last point is that he can always bring surprises to Wei Yuan. Whether it is solving a case or the current intelligence, he has been showing his role to Wei Yuan.

Wei Yuan was relieved that this was not a sapling that could not do anything and needed his

support and care all the time.

This was significantly different from those family geniuses who were extremely talented but had extremely poor ability to do things.

"Try to cooperate with Taoist Jinlian." Wei Yuan said without thinking.

Seeing Xu Qi'an puzzled, he explained: "Jinlian established the Tiandihui and searched for the

holder of the fragment of the Earth Book in various places in Jiuzhou. The original intention was to clean up the door and eliminate the Taoist leader who was possessed by the devil." Xu Qi'an nodded. Jinlian's motive was still told to Wei Yuan by him personally. "Then he will definitely not watch the holder of the fragment of the Earth Book suffer, and will try his best to find a way to mediate, but he is a member of the Earth Sect. The Earth Sect has always remained neutral and it is not convenient to intervene directly. He will most likely

ask you for help."

"What can I do to help, ha, ha..." Xu Qi'an smiled and smiled, and his smile gradually

stiffened.

Wei Yuan didn't know what Xiao Yinluo, his subordinate, had been saying in the chat group of

the Earth Book, so he didn't pay attention to the change in Xu Qi'an's expression and said:

"The Western Church will soon arrive in the capital."

Xu Qi'an was stunned, wondering how Wei Yuan knew that the Western Church was coming to

the capital... Then he understood that the Western Church's large team would not come to visit the capital of Dafeng suddenly.

This is like a meeting between the heads of state of two countries, which requires prior notification, appointment, etc.

"It's the Spring Examination, it's the Western Church, and it's the dispute between heaven

and man... It's difficult." Xu Qi'an felt heavy in his heart.

At this moment, the sound of gongs and drums suddenly came from downstairs, and there

were clanging and clanging, and faint shouts: "There's a fire, there's a fire..."

There's a fire?!

Xu Qi'an has been a night watchman for half a year, and this is the first time he has

encountered such a thing. The next moment, his heart sank and he had a bad premonition.

"Wei, Duke Wei, I'll take my leave first..."

He quickly stood up, clasped his fists, and rushed out of the Haoqi Building in a panic. He

looked around for a moment and found that the clerks and night watchmen were carrying buckets and rushing towards Chunfeng Hall frantically.

A quarter of an hour later, the fire was put out by a Jinluo on duty at the yamen. Chunfeng Hall

was burned down and turned into a scorched ruin. Fortunately, no one was injured or killed.

The Jinluo was very angry and ordered the night watchmen to find out the reason for the water leakage.

In a secluded courtyard somewhere, Zhong Li, with her hair scorched and curled, squatted on the ground. Her linen robe was burned through several holes, revealing her delicate skin.

"I was staying well in the house. I don't know how it caught fire. If you stay up for a while, I might be cooked..." She said with lingering fear.

"You are a fifth-grade sorcerer, how can ordinary fire hurt you?"

Zhong Li said: "I was meditating just now, and something went wrong with my qi."

Xu Qian'an couldn't bear it: "I'll take you to take a bath and change clothes first."

.....

At dusk, Xu Xinnian, who had finished the first imperial examination, left the Imperial Academy. As the students poured out of the gate and came to the street, he turned around for a moment and found that his parents, brother and sister did not pick him up.

"Dad and brother should not have left yet, and it is not convenient for mother and sister to go

out alone..." Xu Erlang comforted himself.

He carried the book box and planned to walk back to the mansion. He did not forget to cast a

buff on himself. He patted his thigh lightly, shook the literary gallbladder, and chanted: "As light as a swallow!"

The invisible force wrapped him up, and as he walked, it seemed as if there was wind helping him, and he walked no slower than a carriage.

Suddenly, someone in front of him laughed and said, "What a light-footed person!"

Xu Xinnian stopped and looked in the direction of the voice. Standing on the street was a

swordsman in green with a sword on his back. He looked very young, but the wisp of white hair hanging down from his forehead showed the vicissitudes of life he had experienced. Before Xu Xinnian could speak, the swordsman in green laughed and said, "The first round of

the Spring Examination is over. According to my habit back then, I have to go to the Jiaofangsi with my classmates to drink and celebrate for the next three days.

"That was nine years ago. I think the courtesans back then have grown old or found their

lovers. I heard that there is a courtesan in the Jiaofangsi in the capital who is both good at poetry and zither. Her reputation has spread throughout the states. I want to go and see her. "Brother, why don't we go together?"

Xu Xinnian listened quietly, and only one thought came to his mind: This man is a fool.

The familiar tone, as if they were all familiar with each other, and even winked at him... But

Xu Xinnian was extremely sure that he didn't know this guy at all. What happened today? He met a strange monk before entering the venue, and met a stupid

swordsman after leaving the venue... Xu Xinnian ignored him and ran away quickly.

Boys should protect themselves outside.

-----

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the red sunset hung in the sky, and Xu Qian'an brought

Zhong Li to the Jiaofangsi.

"I don't know if Fuxiang's illness has recovered. Women in this era are weak and can easily

catch colds."

Xu Qian'an was going to bring Zhong Li to see Fuxiang and diagnose her.

Zhong Li was still wearing a linen robe. After taking a bath, her hair was messy and covered

her face.

Xu Qian'an guessed that she was an ugly woman, or had some scars on her face, so she didn't show her true face. Sёarᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
