Chapter 10 The test for a new official! Gaoliu City, Outer City, South Area, Jiantiansi Branch, Nanxing Tower. General Han placed the inkstone that had just been delivered on the edge of the table. He reached out for the pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote on the paper. Every stroke is upright and sharp, the font is clear and the traces are distinct. "Come in!" There were footsteps outside the door. Before the person could speak, he said, "Close the door." He did not even raise his head, still writing, but said calmly: "Mr. Lu has gone back. He has a good impression of you. You can visit him during festivals in the future." "Although he is not a martial artist, he has been a priest at the Wutong Temple in Qifeng City for fifty years. He is knowledgeable and experienced, and his understanding of the world far exceeds that of anyone in Gaoliu City." Following the voice, General Han gradually stopped writing and said calmly: "As long as you are willing, from today on, he can be the third person in Gaoliu City who knows your real name."
Lin Yan joined the Tianjian Division and used the alias Wuchang. In Gaoliu Castle, only two people knew his true identity. This sentence was to tell Lin Yan that Mr. Lu was someone who could be completely trusted. After the voice fell, General Han put down his brush, then raised his head and looked forward, and then his eyes lit up: "As expected, clothes make the man." The young man in front of him was wearing a black robe with gold threads, which fit him perfectly and made his figure look even taller. His expression was solemn and his eyes were clear. The sword on the left side of his waist adds three points of solemnity and murderous intent. There is a small crossbow hanging on the right side of the waist. At first glance, it feels full of vitality, like the rising sun. "Each department of the Heavenly Supervision Department has its own treasury and books." Han, the flag bearer, said slowly, "You have previously tempered your skin, flesh, tendons, and bones, completing the first stage of martial arts." "Normally speaking, you are a warrior at the second level today." "But I know that you are actually extremely talented and are already a strong warrior." Having said that, General Han looked calm and chuckled. Although it is not stated explicitly, it seems to be saying it. You just have the Breath-Containing Technique and you want to show off in front of me? I saw through you at first sight! "..." For a moment, Lin Yan didn't know how to answer. Therefore, in the eyes of General Han, this matter was tacitly accepted. He took the paper from the table and blew gently to dry the ink. He then said, "In fact, with your current position and merits, you can obtain internal strength martial arts skills in the Tianjian Division."
"But within two years, he has passed the 'Blood Refining' and 'Marrow Cleansing' stages and reached the Internal Strength Stage. If this were to be spread, it would be too shocking." Han Zongqi Envoy said: "Not everyone is tolerant. People in the world are evil. You are too outstanding, so it is inevitable that people will envy you and cause unnecessary troubles." "So, from today onwards, to the outside world, you will still be a warrior at the second level." "But I can't delay your internal strength training, so... I have prepared a 'internal strength' breathing technique for you in advance." As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and swept the papers covered with words in front of Lin Yan. Lin Yan reached out to take it and took a look. The Five Elements Inner Breathing Technique. I had acquired this skill through other means half a year ago. At that time, relying on the magical power of "eating evil", even though he had no skills, he had already trained his "heart" and "kidneys". Now, he has already surpassed the realm of inner strength. This technique is currently useless to me. What is needed right now is the "Essence Refining Realm" technique. He raised his head and was about to say something, but suddenly stopped. There is a long-standing saying in the Outer South Division that the General Flag Envoy does not like women, and what he has learned is suspected to be the Golden Body Boy's Kung Fu, and his Kung Fu will be damaged if he loses his virginity. "No need to shed tears of gratitude, nor to kowtow in thanks." At this moment, General Han waved his hand and said, "Do good work in the future, and that will be your reward." After that, General Han opened a thick book and said calmly, "This is the list of people entering and leaving the city gate yesterday." "In the name of supervision, I asked the commander of the city defense at the South Gate for this list." "This page has your brother Lin Lei's name on it." Tear it apart! General Han tore off the page and handed it over. Lin Yan took the page and saw his second brother's name on the list of people leaving the city yesterday afternoon. But under the second brother's name, there is another name called "Chen Yuannu". The two of them went out of the city together. "So, the girl is not a ghost, but a dead person with a body. The soldiers guarding the city didn't see any clues." Lin Yan was slightly shocked: "How is a dead person like this different from an evil spirit? Why can she travel in broad daylight? And...she sneaked into the city, isn't she afraid of the threat from Liu Zun Temple?" "This 'Chen Yuannu' has a special identity. I will take over personally and do my best to investigate." General Han paused and said, "This matter is a little strange. You should be more careful." Lin Yan thought for a moment and said, "Is it possible that she actually came for me and went to my residence, but didn't run into me, so she took my second brother away and led me out of the city." General Han frowned, the scar on his face becoming more hideous and distorted, and he said slowly: "Logically speaking, Wu Chang's true identity is only known to us and has not been leaked to the outside world..."
Lin Yan was silent for a moment, thoughts turning in his mind. After a moment, he spoke again in a serious tone. "What if it's aimed at Lin Yan?" "Ok?" General Han's expression froze, and he whispered, "Lin Yan is just a boy from a poor family in the alleys, and now he has become a butcher in Linjiangfang Slaughterhouse. Did you offend anyone with this identity?" Lin Yan thought carefully and then shook his head: "I have always been kind to others and I have no enemies." Hearing this, General Han's expression became more complicated. He couldn't help but cough and said, "I will personally check this matter again. In short... you have to be careful in the near future." "However, Mr. Lu will be living in Linjiangfang in the near future. As long as he is here, he will be like a living amulet!" "You can get closer to him. Also, next time you meet him as 'Lin Yan', it will appear more sincere." "As for your second brother leaving the city..." General Han opened the booklet and tore off the pages containing the list of people entering and leaving the city yesterday, including the page from early this morning, and tore them into pieces. It involves the flag-bearing officer of Linjiangfang of the Jiantian Division, who left the city in the middle of the night and returned alive. Anyone interested will certainly investigate the reason. If only Lin Lei's name were blocked out on the list, it would be equivalent to directly telling the person investigating that there is a connection between Lin Lei and Wuchang. So, just destroy all clues. There are quite a few people coming and going in Gaoliu City every day. For example, today, at noon, three caravans from Qifeng City entered the city, with a total of nearly a hundred people. "If these pages are destroyed, even if it's the Heavenly Supervisor, it will be difficult to explain to the City Guard Office." Lin Yan frowned and said, "Besides, that Zhou Kui has a grudge against you, and he has a background in Qifeng Prefecture." "Just treat it as something Mr. Lu said." "That's okay." "besides." Han Zongqi Envoy was silent for a moment, then said, "You are the flag bearer of Linjiangfang, your monthly salary will be increased to twelve taels, and you will also receive three medicinal baths and one Yuan Zengdan." "In addition, there are twelve people under your command, and each person will receive a monthly salary of four taels of silver and a medicinal bath, all of which will be provided by the Outer South Division." "But you must select all twelve of them, and you are not allowed to collect empty salaries." Hearing this, Lin Yan rubbed his brows. As far as he knew, the position of the flag-bearing officer of Linjiangfang was temporarily vacant, and was being taken over by the flag-bearing officer of Qingshanfang, one of the two outer fangs. From this, it seems that the twelve small flags currently in Linjiangfang are all under the command of Liang Hu, the flag bearer of Qingshanfang. General Han asked him to select twelve others, and the implication was clear.
Replace the people left behind by Liang Hu to avoid being sidelined. It is obvious that Liang Hu is not Han Zongqi's confidant. If he wanted to completely take over the power of the flag bearer of Linjiangfang, he had to take it back from Liang Hu. "So, this is the first test to become a flag bearer?" (End of this chapter)
