Gao Wu: My martial arts training relies solely on hard work

Chapter 29 Soul Refining Banners (please follow up)
The examination room is not far from the county government office, only one street away.

Yu Yang took Zhao Xuan and ran all the way, and soon arrived at the county government office.

On the way, Zhao Xuan asked Yu Yang what he liked and why he was summoned.

He likes to prepare in advance so as not to offend the nobles and get into trouble.

Yu Yang was tight-lipped, saying only that the county magistrate had taken office not long ago and he did not dare to make any assumptions.

According to his opinion, the county magistrate should be a humble gentleman and be cautious in his words and deeds.

Zhao Xuan suddenly remembered that Yu Yang's name for him was changed from "Zhao Shaoxia" to "Brother Zhao".

Those who work in the officialdom are generally very smart and will not make blind decisions.

It's not a bad thing to think about.

Arriving at the county government office, Yu Yang expressed his intention to the guards guarding the lobby.

When the guard heard this, he got out of his way and said that his master had already told him to ask the leader of the current department to go to the side hall and Yu Yang was waiting outside.

Before leaving, Yu Yang specifically reminded Zhao Xuan to tidy up his clothes.

The law of officialdom is that if you can't reach the superior, you should try to please the people around the superior.

If the old people are difficult to deal with, please the new people.

Zhao Xuan came to the side hall, but did not see the handsome young magistrate.

Instead, he saw a middle-aged man with a shrewd face and a goatee.

If you think of the guards, this should be the master.

He took the initiative to hand over his hand: "But Master, in front of you?"

The middle-aged man nodded and returned the greeting: "I, Li He, am the county magistrate, and on the orders of the county magistrate, I came to see Chief Zhao."

"Long time, long time."

"Nice to meet you."

After a while of pleasantries, Master Li began to get into the topic: "Your Excellency, the county magistrate, told me to give Chief Zhao a test. How about Chief Zhao, do you mind?"

Zhao Xuan cupped his hands and said, "It all depends on Master's arrangements."

They are all adults and know a little bit about the ways of the world.

It took Bara the effort to call him over, certainly not to treat him to drinks and dinner.

Since they are intentionally recruiting, testing their talent and qualifications is what it should be.

No one wants to be a big enemy, so why not recruit a loser as a subordinate?

He just hoped that he wouldn't be given the stupid trick of "being born a waste".

Seeing that Zhao Xuan agreed, Master Li said with a smile: "I'll make some preparations."

After speaking, I clapped my hands.

Several guards filed in and lit 64 oil lamps according to the Bagua directions.

Then he invited Zhao Xuan to the center and handed him a beautifully styled porcelain vase.

"Please take this elixir, leader, and I will help you refine it with my true energy."

Zhao Xuan did not hesitate, not to mention that the master had no reason to harm him.

If you really want to harm him, you have all the means available, there is no need to beat around the bush.

He opened the porcelain bottle, poured out a soybean-sized yellow pill, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Well, it's sweet and bitter, and tastes good.

The next moment, Master Li slapped Zhao Xuan on the abdomen, and a wave of heat exploded in his stomach, spreading to his limbs and bones.

Zhao Xuan felt like he was in a furnace, with steam rising all over his body.

I saw Master Li pulling out a palm-sized compass like a magic trick and swinging it around Zhao Xuan, just like the old man who danced in the village.

Zhao Xuan glanced at the compass with his peripheral vision.

The compass is divided into two circles. The large needle on the outer circle does not move, and the small needle on the inner circle keeps rotating.

After a while, Master Li took back the compass.

"Chief Zhao, please wait for a moment. I'll come back as soon as I go."

Apparently there was a result and he went to report to the county magistrate.

Zhao Xuan wanted to ask, but before he could speak, Master Li's figure had disappeared before his eyes.

Hiss, at this speed, I'm afraid a hundred of them wouldn't be enough to kill the other party.

...In the main hall, the young county magistrate, whom Zhao Xuan had never seen before, was holding a book and looking at ease.

After Master Li came in, he raised his eyelids and said, "Uncle Li, what's the result?"

Master Li bowed and said: "Back to the young master, this man's spiritual energy is not lost, he is ignorant of all things, and his physique is ordinary."

"But the divine will flows and overflows. Combined with his natural divine power, it should be powerful."

One was called "Uncle Li" and the other was called "Gongzi". If Zhao Xuan were present, he would have guessed the background of the young county magistrate, which was greater than he imagined.

The young county magistrate nodded slightly: "Well, it's not much different from what Uncle Li guessed. We will act according to the plan."

Master Li bowed and said, "Old slave, I obey."

……

When he saw Master Li approaching with a smile on his face, Zhao Xuan's heart suddenly fell to the ground.

The result should be good, otherwise how can you give him a smile if you just send him away casually?

Sure enough, Master Li came up and said: "I've kept Chief Zhao waiting for a long time. The county magistrate is very satisfied with the qualifications of the Chief. It's just that he was too busy and couldn't take the time to meet the Chief. If he neglects, I hope the Chief will not blame him."

Zhao Xuan even said he didn't dare.

Master Li didn't hide anything and asked directly: "I wonder if the leader would like to join the sect of the county magistrate?"

The classic plot is here.

Zhao Xuan raised his hand and said, "I am willing to serve the county magistrate."

If it weren't for the age difference, he would have said the same sentence: "Xuan has been wandering for half his life and has never met the Lord of the Ming Dynasty. If the Lord never abandons him..."

Master Li's smile became even brighter: "Okay, from today on, you will be under the command of the County Lord."

"My lord knows that you come from a humble background but have a strong character, so I gave you a book of exercises and a treasure. I hope you will practice well and don't live up to his expectations."

Then he took out an ancient book bound with thread and a small black flag from his arms.

Zhao Xuan took it with both hands and quickly expressed his position: "Thank you for the reward, sir. I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

The skill is called "Four Symbols and Arrow Technique", which is obviously related to archery and is consistent with his pretended talent.

The flagpole of the small flag is about one foot long, made of black jade, and its tentacles are cool.

The flag is about the size of a palm, with a brocade base and is covered with runes that Zhao Xuan doesn't recognize.

In a daze, Zhao Xuan saw a thin layer of black mist covering the flag.

This thing looks so evil.

As soon as Zhao Xuan took over the skill treasure, Master Li's expression changed and he said solemnly:

"Zhao Xuan, since you have collected the treasure, I have to say something ugly first."

"First, from today onwards, you must obey your orders. If you dare to disobey me at all, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, I will take your life."

"Secondly, this treasure is called the Soul-Nursing Flag. It is a supreme treasure that is hard to find for a thousand dollars. I pity your low cultivation level and give you this treasure. It can not only help you in your cultivation, but also protect you."

"If you can't take the opportunity to practice well, don't blame me for destroying your martial arts and expelling you."

"In addition, you are not allowed to act in the name of an adult without permission. If someone bullies you, you can come to me to speak out."

Zhao Xuan responded solemnly: "I will definitely bear in mind Master's teachings."

To put it simply, there are only two things: help the boss do things, and don’t let the boss get into trouble.

All are within the normal range.

Master Li warned, and then changed his smile: "Don't blame me for speaking harshly, this is for your own good."

"Come, I will teach you how to refine the treasure first."

"The method is simple, just put three drops of blood on the treasure."

Zhao Xuan couldn't help but curse, in what era did blood sacrifices still exist?

He bit his finger and squeezed out three drops of blood.

A prompt appears slowly:
"After blood refining, you have initially refined the treasure weapon Soul Refining Banner Zi Banner."

"Soul Refining Banner: Yellow Grade High Grade."

"Refining progress: 0/100 (refining this object requires the blood and soul of a warrior)."

"Characteristic 1: seducing souls and seizing souls. If you kill someone with this flag, you can steal the person's soul to support the flag and yourself, which can be used to improve the quality of the flag and your own qualifications. The flag is seven and the person is three."

"Characteristic 2: Backlash. The holder of the Zibanner is controlled by the main flag. The deeper the refining, the greater the control. After completion, the person holding the main flag can extract the soul of the person holding the Zibanner and refine it in a single thought to provide support to the Lord. banner."
