Chapter 65 The Talisman Turns to Ashes Zhou Qi looked at the young man in front of him and felt very happy. He is 23 years old this year. Last year, he spent money to enter the slaughterhouse and became an apprentice under Lin Yan. Today, he believes that he has mastered the skills of a butcher. But I am six years older than him, but I have to call others Master Lin all day long. I always feel aggrieved when I think about it. But today, I can finally hold my head high. "I heard that your relative, the head of the Sixth Street, got into trouble because he took a noble out of town hunting?" Zhou Qi said in a low voice, "It's really unlucky. He led his men to carry the prey and walked back... while the nobleman rode a horse and returned to the city first, but was chopped to pieces in the street." "..." Lin Yan's expression was a little complicated.
Yesterday afternoon, that bastard Liu Yi was the distinguished person that He Zhi was responsible for receiving? "I heard that he is about to lose his position as the head of the Sixth Street. The head of the neighborhood hates him very much." Zhou Qi's tone was full of sympathy, but he couldn't help smiling, and said, "By the way, my brother-in-law is the head of the Third Street. Can you ask him to say a few good words to the head of the neighborhood?" "Zhou Qi, look at your smug look!" Xie Yang couldn't help but yelled, "When you were learning from Brother Yan, you were very respectful to him. Now that you are in power, you are like this..." Before he finished speaking, Zhou Qi suddenly slapped him. "Who do you think you are? You are just a small servant, and you are not worthy of yelling at me?" But the next moment, his palm stopped. Because Lin Yan reached out and held his wrist. Then, he gently took the butcher knife from Zhou Qi's hand. "what are you doing?" Zhou Qi said angrily: "Give me back my knife!" Before he finished speaking, he felt his throat tighten. But Lin Yan stretched out his hand, grabbed his neck, and said calmly: "This knife is yours only if I am willing to give it to you. If I don't give it to you, you can't take it away. Do you understand?" As soon as he finished speaking, he threw Zhou Qi to the ground and handed the butcher knife to Xie Yang. Xie Yang took it in a daze, confused for a moment. Before Zhou Qi could come over to grab the knife, Lin Yan kicked him over. "Who dares to cause trouble here?" At this time, a man came quickly with an angry look on his face. There are many petty officials in the market who are responsible for managing markets, shops, stalls and other industries, and the area that this person is in charge of is within the area where the slaughterhouse is located.
"Si Shi, if he dares to hit someone, report him to the police immediately and have my brother-in-law come over. This matter is not over yet!" Before Zhou Qi could finish his words, he was kicked in the face again. "Lin Yan, that's too much!" The mayor stepped forward with a frown on his face. He obviously knew that it was Zhou Qi who took Lin Yan's position, so it was understandable that the two of them had a conflict. He took a look and said, "This matter has been settled. He Zhi didn't say anything. Don't make a fuss here. Pay him some money for the medicine and then the matter will be settled..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Lin Yan in front of him taking out a small flag from his arms. On the small flag, the words "Linjiang" were written. "..." Si Shi turned around, slapped Zhou Qi on the face, and said, "You pay for Yan Ge'er's medicine, and this matter is over." Zhou Qi was stunned for a moment, a bewildered look appeared on his face. The people around him looked at each other in shock and at a loss as to what to do. "You bumped into Yan'er's hand with your face, and you don't want to pay for the medicine?" Si Shi said angrily: "I'm telling you, if Brother Yan doesn't forgive you, even if your brother-in-law comes, he will peel off a layer of skin from you first." "never mind." Lin Yan collected the small flag, pointed it at Xie Yang, and said, "Give him my knife. Is there any problem?" "No problem! Absolutely no problem!" Si Shi nodded immediately and said, "Brother Yan has also worked in this slaughterhouse for many years. According to the rules, if you want to quit this job, you can choose an apprentice to take over." "That's fine." Lin Yan glanced at Xie Yang and said, "Your family is not easy, work harder, do more things, and earn more money." Then he waved his hand, turned and left. After he left, everyone present fell silent. After a while, Zhou Qi gritted his teeth and asked unwillingly, "Why?" Snap! There was another red mark on Zhou Qi's face. Si Shi shook his wrist, which was a little sore from exerting too much force, and said angrily, "Do you know how heavy that flag is?" "What kind of flag is that?" Everyone around couldn't help but feel curious. "The flag bearer of Linjiang Division." Si Shi said solemnly, "Yesterday, the nobleman from the inner city was chopped off in the street by the flag bearer of Linjiang Division!" "No wonder I haven't seen Brother Yan for the past few days. It seems that he was chosen by Linjiang Division. He is so lucky..." Xie Yang's tone was full of envy and a little joy. "Xie Yang, since Brother Yan has taken a fancy to you, you should do a good job in the future." Si Shi patted his shoulder with encouragement, then turned around and left without even looking at Zhou Qi.
"Zhou Qi, go and sort out the pig blood." Xie Yang touched the knife in his hand and sneered, "You are just a servant, why are you staring at my knife?" - Lin Yan didn't care about the slaughterhouse matter. He walked out of the slaughterhouse, and in broad daylight, he suddenly felt a little hot in his arms. He immediately reached into his arms, took out a pool of black paper ash, and scattered it in the wind. Is that the talisman that Meng Lu gave him just now? "..." In an instant, Lin Yan's eyes became solemn. He slowly turned around and stared at the gate of the slaughterhouse. He has been working here for nearly two and a half years. I think I am very familiar with this slaughterhouse. But today he suddenly felt very strange. He paused for a moment, his eyes changed, and finally he turned and left, but before he took a few steps, he saw another figure. He didn't know the man, but he had seen him before. A small flag officer from Wainansi. This person does not belong to any branch of the market town, but is directly under the Outer South Division and is directly dispatched by General Han. Before Lin Yan took over as the flag bearer of Linjiang Division, he was also one of the small flags directly under the Wainan Division. So Lin Yan recognized the other person. It’s just that the other party recognized Wuchang but not Lin Yan. Then Lin Yan retracted his gaze and thought to himself, "It seems that General Han has also paid attention to this place a long time ago." Lin Yan looked back at the slaughterhouse, thought for a while, and decided not to go back and investigate rashly. He went straight back to Linjiangsi, took a medicinal bath, took a Dazengyuan Pill, and began to practice. Cultivation: Refining Essence Realm (658/3650) Cultivation level increases by three points. Every time he practiced diligently and worked hard, he would gain something, which made Lin Yan feel very satisfied. After he changed his clothes and transformed into the appearance of Wuchang, he walked out of his residence and came to the front yard, and then he saw Yang Zhubu walking towards him quickly. "Master Wu, I was just about to go to the backyard to look for you." "what happened?"
"The Outer South Division sent an urgent letter, written by the General Envoy himself and stamped with a fire seal. Only the Fifth Master can open it in person." "understood." Lin Yan took the letter, signaled Yang Zhubu to leave, then opened the letter, glanced at it, and his expression instantly became heavy. (End of this chapter)
