I have 99 innate treasures

Chapter 104 All reasons

Qin Mu didn't know that the old demon Cangshan had come to his house and began to teach Cang Ziling and others with the demonic version of the Analects.

At this time, he was in the Demon Suppression Division, listening to the orders from the imperial court.

The person who read out the imperial edict was Qianhu Tang Mubai, who looked to be in his twenties and had a somewhat lazy temperament.

Qin Mu had already known the content of the decree in advance through the Twelve Golden Men. The general content was that the position of city lord of Guanhai City would be held by Song King Rentu himself. Before the arrival of King Song, Qi Shayu will serve as the deputy city lord of Guanhai City and handle all affairs in the city.

Qiu Fenglai, the leader of the flag, was promoted to the Baihu Department of Demon Suppression Department because of his "hard work and merit".

Qi Shayu's eyes flashed with confusion as he listened to the contents of the imperial edict.

It had only been two days since she had been appointed as the Hundred Household. He Longxing had left a lot of mess for her before taking up the position of Hundred Household. She had not yet finished dealing with it, so she was inexplicably promoted to Deputy City Lord.

Knowing that the previous city lord Huangfu Hongtao had committed treason...she knew without even thinking that the mess left by the other party would be even greater.

At the moment, not only was she not happy because of her promotion, but she sighed quietly in her heart.

When Qiu Fenglai originally heard that he had achieved his wish of becoming a hundred households, a faint smile immediately appeared on his face.

But the next moment he heard the appointment of King Song as the city lord and Qi Shayu as the deputy city lord.

The smile he showed immediately froze on his face.

"How could such a decree be issued? Has the court begun to doubt me?"

He lowered his head with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Previously, it was precisely because Guanhai City had been reduced to a deserted city that he had the idea of ​​​​taking on the role of a hundred households. In this way, he could gradually place some people in the building outside the building in the Demon Suppression Division before the court had time to react. .

But now an imperial edict abolished his thoughts.

It was obvious that the purpose of transferring King Song, who had always only cared about killing people, to Guanhai City was to suppress Xiao Xiao.

Tang Mubai looked at the few people in front of him and said: "Due to the serious shortage of personnel in the Demon Division of Guanhai Town, the Commander-in-Chief will appoint some people from the Imperial College to serve as flag masters, school captains, and patrol inspectors of your Hundred Household Institute."

When he said this, he glanced at Qiu Fenglai, who was silent, and said: "At the same time, there will be Zhao, Lu, Shen, Zhu, several great imperial merchants, and several great families of Ge, Su, Yan, and Xie who will come to visit. Some tribesmen moved to Haicheng."

"They and the people from the Imperial College will arrive at Guanhai City tomorrow. You all should be prepared to welcome them."

Qiu Fenglai was startled when he heard this, and thought to himself: "In the past, weren't the personnel of the Demon Suppression Department trained by the headquarters and then sent to various towns? How come they are selected from the Imperial Academy this time?"

While he was wondering why this was happening, Qin Mu's face showed surprise at the right time, as if he had heard such news for the first time.

He naturally knew that these people who would arrive tomorrow were either the grandchildren of the founding generals or the descendants of a certain duke and marquis.

But everyone else looked shocked, and it would be strange if he had no expression on his face.

At this time, Tang Mubai looked at Qi Shayu again and ordered: "Deputy City Lord Qi, when those people arrive here tomorrow, remember to tell them that not a single flower or grass in Guanhai City should be touched, and that they must take good care of it."

"Every other month someone from the imperial court comes down to purchase exotic flowers and plants in the city."

"Follow the Qianhu Order."

Qi Shayu responded respectfully.

After Tang Mubai nodded lightly, he waved his hands to them and said, "Qin Mu stays, and everyone else should disperse."

After Qin Mu heard this sentence, although his expression was normal, he felt strange in his heart.

Qiu Fenglai narrowed his eyes and secretly looked at Qin Mu, and said secretly: "This kid really has a backing. It seems that we need to continue our friendship. Maybe we have to rely on him to break the situation."

Thinking of this, he smiled and nodded at Qin Mu as he passed by him.

When everyone left and only Qin Mu and Tang Mubai were left, Tang Mubai nodded slightly and said: "It seems that you have not been slacking off these days. You have already reached the third level of Qi Refining."

Qin Mu bowed and clasped his fists, and said respectfully: "Thanks to the ray of spiritual energy given by Master Qianhu, if I just relied on the lower official to practice by himself, he would never be so fast."

Tang Mubai smiled and said: "The spirit is not low at all. Even without my ray of spiritual energy, it won't take long to be promoted to the third level of Qi Refining."

After saying this, he raised his hand and pointed at Qin Mu, and immediately a ray of green light entered Qin Mu's eyebrows.

Before Qin Mu could sense it carefully, Tang Mubai had already spoken: "This is the content of the Golden elixir stage and Yuan Ying stage of the Five Qi Dynasty Yuanjue. You have done merit by presenting the golden man. According to your previous thoughts, I specially started from The headquarters found it for you."

He controlled another ring made of black jade and floated it in front of Qin Mu with his spiritual consciousness, and said: "This is the storage ring I gave you personally. It contains your salary for this month, all from you." An elixir that can be used in the current realm.”

When Qin Mu took the storage ring silently, he felt strange in his heart.

It stands to reason that he, a small flag leader, should receive his salary by himself. How come Tang Mubai personally delivered it to him.

Tang Mubai seemed to see through his mind and said at this time: "When I returned to Beijing this time, I asked an Earth Immortal why you joined the Demon Suppression Division, and also interrogated He Longxing."

When Qin Mu heard what he said, curiosity immediately appeared on his face.

He has always been curious about this matter. Logically speaking, he is just an ordinary bookseller. He will probably never deal with a Yamen like the Demon Suppression Division in his life. Why was he suddenly taken to the Demon Suppression Division on the street, and even became a document.

Tang Mubai said: "Lv Xian personally ordered you to join the Demon Suppression Division that day because he saw that you have spiritual roots and to compensate you."

"Compensation?" Qin Mu looked strange.

Tang Mubai smiled and said, "Do you still remember the old man who forcibly bought the courtyard you rented?"

Qin Mu's eyes widened instantly, "Are you saying that the old man is the Earth Immortal?"

Tang Mubai nodded lightly and explained: "In order to hide his identity, Lu Xian infiltrated into the surrounding monks, so he imitated their methods and forcibly bought the house you rented."

"He originally planned to compensate you later, but after realizing that you had spiritual roots, he got excited and ordered you to join the Demon Suppression Division."

"But that idiot He Longxing misinterpreted Lu Xian's meaning. After getting the order, he immediately investigated all your ancestors. When he found out that you suddenly had spiritual roots, he thought of another It was a case, and I felt that Lu Xian was too lazy to deal with you, so I gave this task to them."

"He originally planned to get rid of your wariness first, and then slowly learn about the person behind you from your mouth."

"Fortunately, that fool was still afraid of the Earth Immortal Order and did not search your soul. Otherwise, even if you are not a fool now, your soul will be greatly harmed."

"At that time, other flag owners were busy, and only Qi Shayu was idle, so he arranged you under Qi Shayu's command and made you serve as a clerk. It is said to be a clerk, but in fact it is more like a mascot." "So when you first joined, During those few days in the Demon Suppression Division, I was always idle."

"Qi Shayu is a straight-tempered person who doesn't rub dirt in his eyes. Even if He Longxing told her that this was just a temporary measure, she still felt uncomfortable. She didn't want to have a colleague under her command who needed to be wary day and night."

"So while you were heading to White City, she told another flag owner about you, hoping to thoroughly investigate you. If you were indeed involved in that case, you would be executed on the spot."

"If you did not participate, it means that He Longxing Baihu mistakenly blamed you, which caused the entire Baihu Institute to misunderstand you."

"She will apologize to you then and report He Longxing to the superiors."

"And that flag owner... has some relatives with He Longxing and me. After I heard her exaggerated content, I interrogated you personally without considering it carefully. This led to the misunderstanding not only not being resolved, but also It’s deepened a lot.”

After saying this, he sighed softly as if he hated iron.

"What was originally a good thing was ruined by that idiot He Longxing."

Qin Mu didn't realize it until now. No wonder no colleagues talked to him when he first joined the Demon Suppression Division.

It was not until later that I had a colleague like Captain Wang with whom I could communicate.

When he was thinking about this, Tang Mubai suddenly snorted coldly and said with an unkind expression: "You won't know until you check. After checking, you will find out that this idiot He Longxing has committed several crimes since he took charge of Baihu!"

"When he was in charge of Baihu, except for Qi Shayu, the rest of the banner leaders were appointed by him without authorization. Those people were not from the headquarters, and they were not trained by the headquarters. They were only slightly trained in Guanhai City."

"And because I am Qianhu, he actually had people falsify the training records of those people, and that's how he concealed it."

"These people can deal with ordinary monks, but not if they encounter someone a little more troublesome."

"I was originally surprised that the flag masters, as well as the dozens of captains and patrol inspectors under their command, were clearly responsible for the case, which was to cooperate with hundreds of households and flag masters in Baiyun and Bairi City to jointly arrest the Piaomiao Sect monks. Why did they stop halfway? I went to deal with Zhang Qianren, but he was killed in one fell swoop with his innate treasure."

"It turns out that the source of everything comes from him."

"Fortunately, that idiot also did a good thing and avenged your parents."

Tang Mubai sighed softly and said: "His Majesty has been in poor health before. All the yamen and even the officials in the imperial court are all worried."

"Although some people are aware of the things he did, Nian is in a remote town in Guanhai City. Not only is it close to the East China Sea, but there are no major sects nearby. As long as he doesn't make any big mistakes, they don't bother to pursue him."

"But His Majesty's health has improved recently, so all the yamen have started to take it seriously."

"So a lot of things are going to start to be thoroughly investigated."

After saying this, he looked at Qin Mu and said, "The reason why I have been chatting with you for so long today is because you are the only one in the world who can serve as the flag leader without any training."

"And Guanhai City will be designated as an important town in the future... Although I have not been in contact with you for a short time, I also know that you will definitely have feelings for me, Qi Shayu, and even the entire Demon Suppression Division because of the previous misunderstanding. Grievance.

"That's why I deliberately stayed here to ask you what you mean."

"If you want to continue to serve as the banner leader of the Demon Suppression Division, you will need to go to the headquarters for three years of training. During this period, you are not allowed to go out, and you are not allowed to take anything with you. Your food, clothing, housing, and transportation will be arranged by the Demon Suppression Division headquarters. "

"You have extraordinary talents and are blessed with immortality. If you are not trained, there is a high chance that you will die in a fight. That would be a pity."

Tang Mubai looked at Qin Mu seriously and said in a deep voice: "If you don't want to go to the headquarters for training, I give you permission to resign."

"In addition, since I am related to that idiot He Longxing, I will compensate you on his behalf. I hope you can forgive him for escorting you from the street to the Demon Suppression Department that day, as well as all subsequent misunderstandings."

"If you are willing, I can recommend it to the higher-ups. After you reach the foundation-building stage, you will be allowed to step down as the flag master and enter the Imperial Academy to be trained directly by the imperial court."

"Imperial Imperial College?"

Qin Mu, who had been silent all this time, finally raised his head at this moment, with surprise on his face.

"Correct!"

Tang Mubai nodded with a smile and said: "The Imperial College is not something that ordinary people can enter. It contains the most talented people from all over the world. In addition to searching through the prison plate, hundreds of households in the Demon Suppression Department can also recommend to the city lord. After inspection and assessment by the city lord, it will be reported to the court."

"After entering the Imperial College, you only need to show your qualifications, study hard, and practice."

"Any items you need will be reviewed by dedicated personnel. Once they are determined to be helpful, they will be provided directly to you."

"While the competition inside is fierce, it won't harm your life, let alone get you injured."

"Every other month, all the monks in the Imperial Academy need to enter a secret realm. That secret realm is extremely special. It can imprint all your strengths, magic weapons, and methods into an illusory body that is exactly the same as you. The monks By taking a pill, you can use your soul to reside in that illusory body."

"Thereby fighting and killing."

"The higher the ranking, the greater the reward."

"I came out of the Imperial Academy back then. Today, I occasionally enter that secret realm to fight with other Yuanshen stage monks."

When Qin Mu heard what he said, hesitation suddenly appeared on his face.

In his heart, he wanted to go to the Imperial College. In addition to being directly trained by the court, he could also fight with people in the secret realm.

This will also give him more experience in fighting with others, so that he will not have only cultivation but no means.

But he was also worried that the secret realm would directly reveal that he was carrying an innate treasure.

Although he believes in the world of heaven and earth and the innate treasure... there is always a chance in everything.

After Tang Mubai saw his hesitant look, he couldn't help but chuckle and said: "It's not too late to consider these things when you are in the Foundation Establishment stage. What you have to do now is to practice hard and strive to be promoted to the Foundation Establishment stage as soon as possible. "

When Qin Mu heard what he said, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Tang Mubai talked about a lot of things today, but he actually ignored the fact that he would only be recommended during the foundation building period.

After hearing his exhalation, Tang Mubai couldn't help laughing, and asked with a smile: "Speaking of which, can you dream about the ancient sages these days?"

His question reminded Qin Mu, and he immediately took out the manuscript of the Analects of Confucius that Uncle Cang had carefully copied from his arms, placed it on the long desk in front of him, and said with a smile: "Master Qianhu is really right. Yes, I did enter the fairyland in my dream two days ago, and heard the wisdom narrated by the sages, which I just copied down in the past two days."

Tang Mubai's eyes suddenly lit up, and he picked up the manuscript and read it.
