I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 37 Wei Mou Is Just a Horseman (please collect, please follow up)
"Just now, my official said that you are allowed to refuse this matter. Now that Fu Wushi wants to quit, I will not break my word..." He Zhifu's face was sullen for a moment, then he suddenly smiled, instead of punishing Fu Zhizhou's subordinate offenders, he said this sentence instead.

All the martial artists in the hall were surprised when they heard the words, and there was an uproar.

They didn't expect Zhifu He to be so talkative. They had known that they would also stand up with Wei Tu and others, and they directly refused.

Except for a few martial artists who were blinded by profit, the rest of the martial artists agreed to go to the Wuyun Building, not because they were willing, but because of the majesty of He Zhifu, fearing that if they refused, they would offend the prefect in front of them.

"but--"

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

All the martial artists were silent, and looked towards the direction where Zhifu He was sitting.

At this time, He Zhifu who made a sound picked up the teacup on the coffee table and stood up.

He was dressed as a Confucian scholar, with the appearance of a scholar. Standing among a group of martial artists, he looked extremely weak, as if a gust of wind could blow him down.

But He Zhifu did not have the slightest stage fright. He looked around at the martial artists around him, his gaze was cold, and the martial artist who met his eyes suddenly felt cold, lowered his head, bent his body, and did not dare to look up.

This is official authority.

One word.

An action.

The atmosphere in the hall can be instantly depressed and tense.

At this moment, everyone in the hall remained silent, and they seemed to hear their own heavy breathing...

Finally, Zhifu He's eyes slid from the hair buns of the martial artists in the hall, past Fu Zhizhou's face, to the faces of Wei Tu, Wei Fei, and Kou Liang.

All the pressure in between.

at this moment.

They all leaned towards the three of Weitu.

The martial artists who were holding their breath took a breath, feeling relieved.

"But...Fu Zhizhou is different from the three of you. His uncle is the commander-in-chief of the Xiaoyi Mansion's Xiang Army, a seventh-rank official..."

"Even if he gives up this chance of being promoted today, he will still be able to be trained by his uncle tomorrow. What about the three of you?"

Surprisingly, Zhifu He's words were very gentle, like a kind teacher teaching his disobedient students.

He didn't have a word of accusation against Wei Tu and the others.Yes, there are only sincere words when speaking the truth.

however.

When these words fell into the ears of all the martial artists, it was a bone-chilling chill.

These words confirmed the conjecture of all the martial artists. If they refuse this task, they may be suppressed and targeted by He Zhifu.

The implication of Zhifu He's words is——

Fu Zhizhou can refuse.

That's because Fu Zhizhou was blessed by his uncle, a seventh-rank military officer. Even if he was suppressed, he would be promoted after two or three years of hard work at most.

And what about Wei Tu and the others?

After being suppressed, you may not be able to be promoted to an official position for the rest of your life, and you will die of old age at the bottom.

"This……"

Hearing this, Fu Zhizhou's throat rolled, and he wanted to speak out eagerly to persuade Wei Tu and others not to be bewitched by He Zhifu.

But under the gaze of He Zhifu, he had no choice but to swallow this sentence, swallowed it into his stomach, and kept silent.

outside.

What Zhifu He said was also true. The reason why he dared to stand up for the first time and refused bluntly was inseparable from the fact that he had an uncle who was a seventh-rank military officer.

——With a background, you have the ability to be "willful".

"A martial artist is a martial artist after all, just a few words... and I will give in." After waiting for a while, seeing that Wei Tu and the other three hadn't replied, Zhifu He smiled contemptuously in his heart, and thought to himself.

"Behind me, there is no Fu family, and Fu Zhizhou's seventh-rank military officer uncle..."

"But Kou is clumsy...I'm afraid I missed the prefect's plan, so I ask the prefect to forgive me."

At this time, a voice suddenly appeared in the living room out of season, and it came from Kou Liang who was standing beside Fu Zhizhou.

moment.

The atmosphere in the hall once again fell into a deathly silence.

No one dared to speak loudly.

Even—breathing loudly.

however.

Don't wait for people to react.

After half a breath, Wei Tu, who was in the same row with Fu Zhizhou and Kou Liang, also spoke.

Compared with Kou Liang, Wei Tu was much more polite. He bowed his hands to He Zhifu and said, "Wei is of low status. Before he participated in the martial arts, he was just a stable boy who was despised by others. Now... no matter if he is a low-level military officer. Thinking about it... his life is much better than my original life..."

——Having been together for less than half a day, he still doesn't feel like a brother to Fu Zhizhou and others, but he knows that he will try his best to avoid this "disaster"... Even if he is targeted by the prefect, he will not hesitate.

again...

Could it be compared to the day when he redeemed himself?
soon.

Follow Weitu's words.

Wei Fei also gritted his teeth and spoke, but unlike Wei Tu and the other three, he only said "me too".

However, this sentence has already shown his attitude, and it doesn't matter how much he speaks.

After listening to the words of the three.

He Zhifu knew what the four Weitus meant, so he didn't try to persuade them. After secretly remembering the names of the four Weitus in his heart, he turned his eyes to the other martial artists and said, "What you are concerned about...is the matter of this mission secret or not?"

"You guys are all invited by my official, they are all martial artists with clean backgrounds and a bright future... It is expected that none of you will easily reveal the secrets here. As for the maids and servants in the house, they are all my confidantes and will not talk about it..."

The voice fell.

The martial master who wanted to follow the example of Wei Tu and the others against He Zhifu, immediately began to waver in his heart, stopped and did not dare to take the "second step".

There are some reasons for He Zhifu's words. The martial artists present are not ordinary people, so how could they easily leak secrets.

As for the servant girls and servants, as the long-term companion He Zhifu's confidantes, their secrecy is more reliable than other martial artists.

Wei Tu and the others didn't know the careful thoughts of these martial artists. After they looked at each other, they cupped their hands and said goodbye to Zhifu He.

Under the eyes of all the martial artists.

The four of them walked out of the living room together, and left the government office of Qingfeng Mansion.

……

"This time, it's very risky..."

"I was almost persuaded by the prefect of He, so I didn't dare to say no again..."

Outside the government office, Kou Liang patted his chest, took a few deep breaths, and smiled.

"Brother Kou, thank you very much." Fu Zhizhou patted Kou Liang on the shoulder, showing gratitude.

Just now, if Kou Liang retreated and didn't say those words in time, he, Fu Zhizhou, would be "destroyed".

"And Brother Wei, Brother Wei!"

"Kindness without saying thanks."

Then, Fu Zhizhou turned around and looked at Wei Tu and Wei Fei behind him. He laughed a few times, and immediately held the palms of the two of them tightly with his rough hands.

He and Kou Liang still have fellowship.

But with Wei Tu and Wei Fei, it was only a one-time relationship.

This time, Wei Tu and Wei Fei were able to accompany him on this "elder brother" adventure - although a considerable part of the reason was for themselves, there was also kindness towards him.

"When we were in the government office, we said that when we leave the government office, we will become brothers. If anyone is in trouble, we will help each other!"

"The prefect of He suppressed our brothers, and they will suppress them for a year at most. After he crosses the river and dragons, I will use my relationship to help you no matter what."

Fu Zhizhou patted his chest and said boldly.

"Go to Xuanhe Building for wine first."

"At dawn, the Daoist Examination will be released, and then we will see what kind of tricks the prefect can play..."

Kou Liang smiled and said.

With this shared adversity, even though the four of them met for the first time, they undoubtedly gained a little more trust than other acquaintances.

"The Taoist test is the grand ceremony of Shannan Dao's talents. What can he do as a magistrate? Martial arts are not literary exercises. You can tell who is superior and who is weak at a glance."

When Fu Zhizhou heard Kou Liang's words, he immediately laughed a few times, expressing his disdain for the prefect He's strength.
