Shi Yilun turned pale with shock. The previous sheriff had been in office for many years, but his usual sense of presence was very weak. He did not expect to be replaced by a sheriff, who was still a young man, but soon he was puzzled again. Said: "It should not be him. That guy is about the same age as me, and his strength is not as good as mine. No matter whether he has real power or not, the county guard is also a big official in the frontier. No matter how deep his background is, it is impossible to get a county guard." come and play."

"Of course it's not possible in other counties, but this is Xingyun County, which is not a good place." Shi Yuanhua said with deep eyes, "But the county guard may indeed have someone else, and we should see him soon. I don't believe that in the new county." Shouzhen doesn’t care about anything.”

Shi Yuanhua expected it well. On the second day, an invitation was sent from the county guard's mansion and delivered to the Shi family's mansion. The Huang family, Qian family and other major families in Xingyun City also received the invitation.

In the evening of the next day, the patriarchs of several big families in Xingyun City each brought a few clansmen into the Sheriff's Mansion. In the palace paved with gold and inlaid with jade, all the delicious food and wine were prepared. He had been waiting in the hall early.

Seeing Guan He standing with hands down, Shi Yuanhua and others really wanted to ask about the new governor, but they didn't dare to be the first bird.

Gongsun Lan also came with the people from the Shi family this time, her face full of curiosity. For many years, in the seven first-class cities including the Gongsun family to which she belongs, the sheriff of Xingyun County has been in command The aristocratic families basically do not offend the river, once someone touches their interests, the seven aristocratic families will put aside their disputes and enmity, and unite to safeguard their interests.

Soon, Zhou Xing came from the back of the hall, beside Chen Wenle and Chu Hen.

Zhou Xing went straight to the main seat and sat down, looked at the people in the hall and said: "Everyone, I think you all know that I am the new governor of Xingyun County, and I am Zhou Xing."

After the words fell, everyone stood up one after another, and said respectfully: "I have seen the sheriff."

Zhou Xing nodded, motioned everyone to sit down, and then said with a smile: "Xingyun City can develop to where it is today, thanks to all of you. I have checked the information of previous years, and the annual tax revenue of Xingyun City is above [-] top-grade spirit crystals. , is the most in Xingyun County, far surpassing other cities. However, I heard that the prosperity of the seven first-class cities in Xingyun County is not lower than that of Xingyun City. The spirit crystal is left and right, why is this? Please enlighten me.”

Hearing this, Shi Yuanhua and the others knew how many fires the new sheriff was about to light, and thought to himself: You don't know the reason for this, so come and ask us.

But no one chose to go, only Shi Yuanhua said: "Go back to the governor, why I don't know why, our Shi family still has some strength in Xingyun City, but when we leave Xingyun City, especially in the other seven How can there be any influence in a first-class city!"

"Our Huang family is too."

Zhou Xing was not angry after hearing Shi Yuanhua's and others' answers.

He has come step by step from a civilian handyman to today, and his accumulated experience is enough to stabilize his emotions.

One after another, pictures of trivia from the past came to mind one by one.

Back then, he was faced with one very urgent problem after another.For example, the six vermilion fruits given to him by Wang Tian are a big trouble. Many cultivators from a distance looked at him with eyes full of greed, and they looked into his eyes undisguisedly. The meaning in them was full of threats .

He smiled wryly.He explained that the situation he found was like a child walking in a busy market with gold in his arms.Everyone hasn't rushed up to snatch his vermilion fruit yet, that's because it's broad daylight, and now it's in public, and these six vermilion fruits are just given by Wang Tian.

He knew that if he didn't handle one well, he might be a dead person the next day!

He really wanted to eat one and try to see if he could absorb spiritual energy, but the practitioner needed to concentrate as much as possible, especially when he was not proficient at the beginning, he didn't want to go crazy.

And at this moment, a young cultivator wearing a brown robe who looked less than [-] years old and with a thin face came out of the crowd and walked towards him step by step.

Zhou Xing recognized him, and everyone in Hongdu Academy recognized him. This young man was one of the three heroes of Hongdu, Zhao Yu from Zhao County, Jizhou!

If Zhang Bu is the number one in swordsmanship among the three masters of Hongdu, then Zhao Yu is the number one in talisman among the three masters of Hongdu.Dean Shen Xiu valued Zhao Yu the most, and often said that Zhao Yu's talent in talismans ranked among the top three among all the cultivators he had met.

The most popular sentence about the Three Heroes in Hongdu College is: Zhang Bu's sword, Zhao Yu's talisman, and Chen Rong's mouth.

"Hello." Compared with Zhang Bu, Zhao Yu's figure is much thinner, "I'm Zhao Yu, what's your name?"

"You are the second cultivator who asked me my name." Zhou Xing smiled, and he suddenly thought of how he should deal with these vermilion fruits, "My name is Zhou Xing."

"Zhou is Zhou Xing's Zhou, and Xing is Zhou Xing's Xing?" Zhao Yu had a playful expression on his face.

"Zhou is indeed Zhou Xing's Zhou, and Xing is indeed Zhou Xing's Xing." Zhou Xing smiled. He felt that the three heroes of Hongdu called Zhao Yu were much more interesting than the three heroes of Hongdu called Zhang Bu.

"Oh, then I want to see if you, Zhou Xing, are Zhou Xing?" Zhao Yu also smiled, very naturally, "You have encountered a problem, you have encountered a major event."

"I know this." Zhou Xing, who thought of a solution, looked relaxed, "It seems that Brother Zhao, you have thought of a way to help me solve the problem."

A look of surprise appeared on Zhao Yu's face, "You are very interesting, I like it very much."

"You are the second one today to say that I am interesting."

"It seems that my judgment is correct. Zhang Bu was indeed able to defeat Wang Tianci with the advice of outsiders." Zhao Yu's cultivation was not yet able to hear clearly in the noisy voices at that time, and he deliberately lowered his voice Zhou Xing's voice, but he has been a person who is extremely intelligent and pays attention to details since he was a child.

The study of talismans originally required more brainpower from the practitioner.

He paused, and his expression became serious, "It seems that Wang Tianci talked to you because you pointed out Zhang Bu, which is really unbelievable."

Zhou Xing really didn't want to admit this, he suddenly felt that there were too many people in this world, "Who knows? Maybe I accidentally brought some dust onto the brocade robe of that prince when I was sweeping the floor. "

Zhao Yu laughed haha, and did not continue this topic, "Looking at how relaxed you are, you must have thought of a way to solve this vermilion fruit, why don't we play a game. I have two pieces of paper here. Write the method on it, and then compare it to see which of us has a better method?"

Zhou Xing didn't speak, but just stretched out his hand.Zhao Yu gave him a piece of paper and a pen, and he took it, put the paper in his left palm, picked up the pen in his right hand, and began to write.Seeing him like this, the other party quickly started writing.The two quickly finished writing. After looking at each other, they turned the papers to each other at the same time, and saw that the same sentence was written on the two papers: hand it over to the dean.

"Hahahaha," Zhao Yu laughed happily and patted Zhou Xing's shoulder, looking like a close friend, "It's a pity that you are not a cultivator, otherwise it would be very pleasant to have a friend like you."

"What happened to the civilians? What happened to the cultivators?" Zhou Xing said. He came from another world. Everyone is equal and free. A good cultivator can chat, and he speaks quickly according to the thinking of that world, "It's like what happened to the low-grade cultivator? What happened to the Zhou-grade cultivator? Aren't they born by parents? You must be able to become a cultivator from birth? You must have outstanding cultivation talent? Human beings should be born equal."

When Zhao Yu heard his words, his expression became solemn, and he looked into his eyes seriously for a long time and said slowly but seriously: "Although Da Jin has never been offended by words, if what you said just now makes the imperial court When people hear it, they will definitely think it is treasonous. Orderly and strict hierarchy, this is the foundation of the Great Jin."

After finishing speaking, he paused, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a different tone: "People should be created equal. I personally like this sentence very much. Let's go, I will take you to Mr. Dean is there."

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yu shouted to the crowd of onlookers: "Let's leave. This man is going to hand over Zhu Guo to the dean."

From the moment Wang Tianci entered Hongdu Academy, Shen Xiu secretly observed the whole thing.He was another person who clearly heard Zhou Xing instructing Zhang Bu on swordsmanship.

Shen Xiu is a person with an unforgettable memory.

He can be sure that this handyman sweeping the floor is an ordinary handyman in his Hongdu Academy. When he became the dean of Hongdu Academy, this person was there.He immediately found the steward who was in charge of these handymen, and asked the steward to find out Zhou Xing's files.What made him more interested was that this person's file was encrypted!
When he saw the word "secret" stamped on the handyman's file, the steward rubbed his eyes in surprise, suspecting that he had read it wrong.This man is just a handyman!

But the steward is a strict person, since it is a document of "secret" name, it has to go through the procedure of "secret" name file.He carefully opened the file bag, first took out the detailed borrowing list, and saw that no one had borrowed the history on it, but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.First let Shen Xiu fill in the name and date carefully, and then take out the file and hand it to Shen Xiu.But he didn't leave. He didn't leave Shen Xiu's room until Shen Xiu read it and handed it back to him.

This boy was sent in 13 years ago to become a registered handyman. At that time, the person in charge of personnel was not the same steward just now.Who on earth sent him in, and who decided to label this boy's file as a "secret" name?
It's so weird.

Hongdu Academy is not an ordinary place, and the handymen here are basically entrusted with connections to get in, and Shen Xiu knows this well.Many of the first batch of people who came in were descendants of those who died in battle with General Ma Long, who had quelled the Liangzhou rebellion.But very few entered later.

Shen Xiu is a person with extremely rigorous thinking, and when he encounters a problem, he usually tries his best to explain it.

The form on the boy's file indicating whether he has cultivation talent is blank, and the person who said that he sent him in just found him a job to settle down.

But this young man's talent in swordsmanship is so outstanding, no, Shen Xiu immediately changed a word in his heart, shocking the world!

In Shen Xiu's eyes, Zhang Bu's swordsmanship was good enough.With Zhang Bu's foundation in swordsmanship, as long as he honed it on the battlefield for a year and a half, he would definitely be able to advance to a higher level, and he could already be counted as the best swordsmanship in the entire empire.

But this young man, as a commoner, has no access to systematic training and teaching at all. At most, he observes those students' swordsmanship practice in the academy every day.

If through observation, one can teach Zhang Bu, a cultivator who has been immersed in swordsmanship for nearly 30 years, then what is this talent?
Didn't the person who sent this boy in back then know?
Or is it because this young man has no cultivation talent at all, and no matter how great his swordsmanship talent is, it is of no value at all?
I'm afraid this young man doesn't have any cultivation talent at all, right?
Shen Xiu felt that this inference should be the truth.

It's a pity that such an astonishing talent in swordsmanship, he shook his head, feeling very regretful in his heart.If you can't become a cultivator, you can't train your body.Regardless of strength and speed, the gap between a commoner and a cultivator is even greater than the gap between a child and an adult.Even the best swordsmanship is useless in the face of absolute strength and speed.

Just like when Zhang Bu defeated Wang Tianci, he relied on power to suppress him!
One force will drop ten.

There are many kinds of talents with amazing talents in many aspects in history, but they were buried in the long river of history because they couldn't cultivate.The gap between cultivators and non-cultivators is an insurmountable gap.

But, no matter what, Zhang Bu won against Wang Tianci!
This point is very important.

Even though Wang Tianci and Zhang Bu and some people who observed secretly knew that Zhang Bu won Wang Tianci because of others' advice, but Wang Tianci admitted his failure in public!

This cannot be changed!

What is the demeanor of the family!
In fact, Shen Xiu has always been very disapproving of the elegant demeanor of the aristocratic family in his heart. He thinks this kind of thing is fake and unnecessary.But at this moment, he had to rejoice that Wang Tianci's demeanor really resembled those two and three gentlemen in his family.

If Wang Tianci used the excuse that Zhang Bu was instructed to start over, Shen Xiu knew in her heart that Zhang Bu would not be able to win against Wang Tianci.This battle finally forced Wang Tianci to compete with Zhang Bu in strength. It was a very accidental thing. With Wang Tianci's understanding of swordsmanship, another round would definitely avoid this situation from happening again.

Fortunately, this result is the best for Shen Xiu.

The family has always opposed Hongdu Academy.And the deposed prince Huangfu Yu has always been in close contact with the family, and his thoughts and remarks all reveal a strong meaning of favoring the family.

Empress Jia Zhi insisted on supporting Hongdu College.

These things may not be understood by many cultivators in Dajin, but to politicians in Shangluo, these things are like lice on a bald man's head, and they are so obvious.

Many people say that Huangfu Zhong, the current emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, finally came to power through his son. This seems to be the common opinion of everyone in the Great Jin Dynasty.But Shen Xiu didn't think so.
