Chapter 63 Don't Go Out at Night

A woman in red stepped into the military camp.

"Please forgive my poor eyesight."

Prefect Ji couldn't help but look at the other person and asked in confusion: "Who is the girl?"

"My surname is Sun, and my name is Li."

The woman took off a bronze medal from her waist and held it high: "I am here to select the best troops from Poyang on the orders of the Military Governor's Office."

"Sun Li?"

Hearing this name, Prefect Ji suddenly woke up, stood up and bowed: "Haha, I never thought that the commander-in-chief's daughter would come in person. I am so rude, so rude!"

daughter?

Chen Sanshi couldn't help but look at the woman again.

Is this the commander-in-chief who sent his own daughter to Poyang?
To select a striker?

more than.

There must be something else going on.

But it seems that someone has spoken up for him for the time being, so he can save himself a lot of trouble.

"Don't misunderstand, Miss Sun."

Prefect Ji's tone was much kinder: "I also love talents, so I wanted to give General Chen another choice."

"Love talent?"

Sun Li said bluntly: "Why can't I hear any sign of goodwill from the prefect's words, but instead I can hear some threats?"

Prefect Ji argued, "I have absolutely no such intention. Miss Sun cannot speak nonsense."

"It's just a joke, don't take it seriously, Prefect."

Sun Li said softly to the young man beside him, "Mr. Chen, I have something to ask you. Can I have a word with you?"

Ji Guangxian watched the two people leave and sat down in the main seat again.

Immediately afterwards, Xiang Tingchun walked in.

"Prefect Ji."

Xiang Tingchun looked displeased: "Are you planning to attack my people?"

"You slashed at Qian Hu with your sword. Do you know how much trouble you caused me?"

Ji Guangxian said angrily, "There are twelve counties in Anding Prefecture, and the spit of dozens of martial arts schools is almost drowning me. Some people even used their connections to submit memorials to the cabinet. What do you want me to do?"

"Prefect Ji, please calm down."

Xiang Tingchun spread his hands and said indifferently: "I am also planning for the beginning of spring. How can I send troops without money?"

"Grand plan? You are just a small captain, and you are not qualified to talk about grand plan. What a joke!"

Ji Guangxian snorted coldly: "You are lucky. If it wasn't for the time when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was selecting generals above the level of Refining Zang in the world, you would have been killed long ago!"

"His Royal Highness?"

Xiang Tingchun's pupils trembled: "Prefect Ji, has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard of me?!"

"Are you worthy?"

Ji Guangxian's words were harsh and merciless: "Only Lord Gao of the Ministry of War appreciates you. If you can really make achievements, he will recommend you for training. This official came to Poyang with a mission assigned by Lord Gao."

Being humiliated, Xiang Tingchun remained calm and just asked in a deep voice, "What mission?"

"Investigating the case."

Ji Guangxian said, "Are there any Wushen followers hiding in Poyang? They seem to be hiding something. Do you know? This is a serious matter. Even His Majesty has appointed the county magistrate to investigate. Don't hide anything."

Xiang Tingchun edited and edited the story, telling a half-truthful account of the Wushen Cult.

"Keep checking."

Ji Guangxian said seriously: "The merit of this matter is no less than wiping out a tribe of barbarians, do you understand?"

"I will investigate it myself. There is no need to worry about it, Prefect." Xiang Tingchun replied calmly.

"Okay, now that we've finished our business, let's talk about personal matters."

Ji Guangxian was still furious, pointing at his nose and saying, "You have to give me an explanation for the Song family's affairs. If Chen Sanshi doesn't disappear from Poyang, how can I still win the support of the people in Anding Prefecture in the future?"

"No, I could use him."

Xiang Tingchun sneered: "Besides, you can't say this to me, you should talk to the daughter of the Sun family."

"No one can stop it!"

Ji Guangxian said firmly: "The more talented that kid is, the more he should not be left to the commander. It would be best if he could be used by me!"

"You too?"

Xiang Tingchun found an opportunity to fight back and sneered, "He has practiced martial arts for two months and is almost as good as a bone-strengthening practitioner. How could he be interested in a prefect like you?
“Also, I don’t mind if you want to embarrass him, but as a colleague, I need to remind you.

"This kid is a kind person, but when it comes to cruelty, he is even more ruthless than me." "You can't convict him, and you still want to threaten him. Think about what happened to Song Laowu.

"Oh, by the way, he just ordered a 15-stone heavy bow from the forge, tsk tsk...

"Sir, please stay out less at night recently.

"If something unexpected happens, there's a good chance that even the body won't be found. I want to help you get revenge, but I have no evidence!"

"He dares!"

Ji Guangxian was quite confident: "If that's the case, then there's a good reason to kill him!"

Xiang Tingchun said no more. He looked at him as if he were a corpse, shook his head, and turned away.

……

Outside the military settlement, in the fields.

A man and a woman, one red and one blue, two figures walking side by side
Sun Li habitually placed one hand on the hilt of the knife: "According to the records of the Supervisor's Office, you started practicing martial arts after the autumn harvest. Now two months have passed. What realm have you reached?"

She was obviously a woman and not very old, but her tone of voice revealed the authority of a senior.

"Reply to the Selectman."

Chen Sanshi answered truthfully: "I am training my bones."

"Bone training?"

Sun Li's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he suddenly remembered something: "Who told you to rush to train your bones? Didn't anyone tell you that after practicing the lower level breathing method, your Qi and blood will be fixed after training your bones, locking in your upper limit in the future?"

Normally speaking.

A selected military officer, after entering the Eight Major Camps, will obtain a new breathing method based on his qualifications.

Re-cultivate a medium or higher level breathing method to cover the previous lower level breathing method.

But after training the bones, the quality of Qi and blood is locked and can no longer be changed.

According to the rules, the person responsible for teaching the selection of vanguard military officers should explain it clearly.

"Ok?"

Chen Sanshi was startled. He thought something was wrong and explained, "Officer Selector is overthinking. I am practicing the Haoran Breathing Method."

"Haoran Breathing Method?"

Sun Li was surprised and asked, "Who taught you?"

This breathing method is indeed a superior breathing method.

But it is also the most difficult to learn. It is a skill that is taught only to those who are carefully selected by the Eight Camps and are confirmed to have very high qualifications.

"Wang Zhi, Wang Bai Hu."

Chen Sanshi said: "The selection officer may know him."

"Wang Zhi?"

Sun Li asked: "I don't know this person. What does he look like? Where did he get the Haoran Breathing Technique?"

Chen Sanshi briefly described his physical features.

'Could it be him?'

An imperceptible murderous intent emerged in Sun Li's eyes: "Where is he? Take me to see him."

Chen Sanshi replied, "I went to visit my relatives in the city."

A few days ago, Wang Zhi left on a fast horse and has not been seen since.

At that time, he felt that it was not like a visit to relatives, but more like a runaway.

Judging from Miss Sun’s attitude, it seems that her guess was correct.

Did Wang Zhi embezzle too much or did he commit some other crime?
If he commits a serious crime, I may not be able to help him.

"Forget it, let's wait until he comes back."

Sun Li took a deep breath: "Let's go."

Chen Sanshi didn't understand: "Where to?"

"Go to your home."

Sun Li smiled and said, "I'm tired. I want to go to Chen Zongqi's house to ask for a cup of tea. Are you not welcome?"

"Of course you are welcome, follow me."

Chen Sanshi led the way in front, trying to figure out what the other party meant.

What is this, a home visit?

The selection process of the Military Governor's Office is quite strict, and every aspect of the situation must be fully understood.
