Chapter 178 Xia Liyun
Liangzhou City, Demon Suppression Division.
After Ding Zhao was promoted to the pacification envoy, he made a drastic rectification of the demon suppression in Liangzhou Prefecture and killed a large number of people.
As soon as Ji Chen stepped into the Demon Suppression Division, he felt that the atmosphere was much more serious than before, and everyone was cautious.
In the study, Ji Chen saw Ding Zhao, who was about 30 years old, with a cold face, a tough face, and sharp eyes like a sword. You can tell from his face that he has a bad temper.
Ding Zhao was a new official who was directly promoted to the pacification envoy by the general flag. He was under a lot of pressure. All parties were watching him and his position. If he did something wrong, he would be impeached and suppressed by all parties.
In addition, Liangzhou Prefecture is not peaceful now. There are threats from the Divine Fire Sect and the Snow Clan in the north, and there are undercurrents inside. He has to be very careful with every step.
"Hello, sir!" Ji Chen saluted with a fist.
Ding Zhao nodded, "You did a good job on the case in Chaos Land. The commander is very optimistic about you."
Ji Chen said: "It should be, it's all part of my job!"
"You don't have to be humble. The commander's vision will be good. Your identity token has been made, and the merits of the Chaos Land case have been counted."
"The commander personally signed and promoted you to the general flag, from the sixth rank, with a monthly salary of thirty taels, three silver yuan pills for monthly cultivation, five taels of spirit stones, and a storage magic tool."
"Because you have made contributions to the case, you will be rewarded with three silver yuan pills, one catty of spirit stones, and 10,000 contribution points , a chance to enter the armory, a chance to enter the weapons storehouse. "
Ji Chen hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you for the promotion!"
"It was the commander who promoted me, you have to thank the commander. The commander is very fond of you and calls you the first young man in Beizhou. "
Ding Zhao said lightly, and then changed his tone, "But there are many young talents in the Demon Suppression Division who don't accept you."
"I am ashamed to be the first person, I am just a first-level rough man, what virtue and ability do I have."
Ji Chen said neither humbly nor arrogantly. He knew in his heart that Ding Zhao in front of him might be among the people who didn't accept it!
He revealed unfriendly meanings in his words.
In terms of age, Ding Zhao is indeed a young generation. He was promoted to the pacification envoy at around 30 years old. His cultivation broke through Nirvana. Needless to say, his aptitude is natural, and it is normal to be arrogant. If it weren't for me, I'm afraid that the title of the first person would fall on him.
Ding Zhao asked some more questions about the chaotic land.
Ji Chen also answered truthfully.
Chaos now belongs to Liangzhou Prefecture. Ding Zhao plans to establish a demon suppression department there. He needs to send a general flag to sit there and ask Ji Chen for his opinion.
After all, Ji Chen is more familiar with that place, and he also established the Heavenly Sword League there, so Ding Zhao has the idea of asking Ji Chen.
Ji Chen thought about it and recommended Xie Anbing.
After thinking about it, he felt that Xie Anbing was the most suitable. Chaos has a lot of money and water, and there is his own Heavenly Sword League there. Recommending acquaintances will also facilitate management, and the two sides will not have a conflict.
Give a peach, return a plum! Xie Anbing has helped Ji Chen, and he is now returning a favor to Xie Anbing.
Ji Chen did not hide his thoughts and analyzed his concerns with Ding Zhao.
Ding Zhao pondered for a moment and said that he would consider Ji Chen's suggestions.
After getting along for a while, Ji Chen did not have a bad impression of Ding Zhao.
This person is straightforward, arrogant, and ambitious. He should not be a bad person, but he is not a good person to get along with.
This kind of people generally have only two endings, either they can continue to sing with their strong strength, or they will be sidelined and become disloyal.
Ding Zhao is actually under great pressure. The commander promoted him to the pacification envoy against all odds, which also led to his being questioned by all parties. He can't wait to make a political achievement to slap those people in the face.
After Ji Chen came out of Ding Zhao's study, he went to collect official clothes and benefits.
Six silver yuan pills and one and a half catties of spirit stones, if they were placed before he went to the chaotic land, it would definitely be a considerable fortune.
But now, it's just a drop in the bucket.
There is also a storage ring with ten cubic meters of space. Before he got the ring, it was definitely a treasure, but now, it's just that.
A general flag identity token with Ji Chen's name and official position on it. This identity token is made of special materials. Each one is unique. It is engraved with complex formations, automatically absorbs spiritual energy, and operates at all times.
Each token cannot be imitated. After refining, it is a magic weapon that can attack the enemy.
And this token also has a very powerful function, summoning.
When encountering danger or an irresistible enemy, input mental power into the token, the formation inside will start to operate, automatically send out a distress signal, and the tokens of the demon-suppressing envoys within a thousand miles will glow and show the approximate location of the person seeking help.
This treatment is only available to the general flag. When you reach the general flag, you are already a pillar of the country.
This is one of the reasons why the demon-suppressing department is really terrifying. As long as you don’t kill the people of the demon-suppressing department in the first time, you will stir up a hornet’s nest and be besieged by the demon-suppressing department from all sides.
Ji Chen thought of the battle to kill Xu Yuanzhen. Fortunately, the chaos was far away from Liangzhou Mansion, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Liangzhou City seems to be much more lively. This is the feeling Ji Chen had after returning this time. There are more people. There are Confucian scholars and monks, all kinds of people.
It gives Ji Chen a feeling that something is going to happen in Liangzhou Mansion recently.
Ji Chen returned to Zhao Pan’s house with doubts, but found that Zhao Pan was not at home. There was some dust on the table. He should have been out for a few days.
He should have gone on a mission!
This is Ji Chen’s guess.
By the time I finished cleaning the yard, it was already dark.
Night... the sky is full of stars, and the moon is hanging high.
Ji Chen holds a wine pot, lies on the roof, and looks up at the starry sky.
It is rare to relax. At this moment, Ji Chen is in a very ethereal mood. The moonlight falls on him, and enters his body.
At this moment, a figure in the sky steps on the moon. She is dressed in white, holy as snow, her dress flutters in the wind, her black hair flies lightly, her eyelashes tremble, her eyes seem to be dreaming of mist, her neck is slender, her skin is icy, her features are delicate, her face is beautiful, and she is flawless.
She is such a perfect woman.
She carries a wine pot, steps on the moon, and sits down next to Ji Chen on the roof.
"It's boring to drink alone. Why don't I accompany you?"
This is the third time Ji Chen has seen her. It is the third or fourth time. Ji Chen can't remember clearly.
Ji Chen said: "Drinking alone is lonely, and drinking with two people is also sentimental. Welcome."
She opened the wine pot, and a burst of wine aroma came.
Ji Chen's eyes lit up. Good wine.
She waved again, and a jade table appeared between Ji Chen and her. She waved again, and three plates of delicacies appeared on the table.
She took a sip from the wine pot and handed it to Ji Chen, without any intention of avoiding suspicion.
Ji Chen was not a reserved person either. He took the wine pot and took a sip.
The wine was rich in aroma and refreshing and smooth in the mouth. It was a top-quality wine.
"Good wine!"
Ji Chen praised again. This was indeed a rare good wine. At least he had never drunk it, whether in the previous life or this life.
In fact, most of the wine in this world is better than the wine in the previous life. There is not so much technology and hard work.
