The days when I was working in the West Factory

Chapter 11
"To practice this skill, draw a sword from the palace..."

Opening the first page of the Sunflower Canon, the first line of words is not the slightest difference from the Sunflower Canon in Zhao Yu's memory.

Immediately, Zhao Yu turned to the last page.

Sure enough, there is no record of the so-called 'if you don't come from the palace, you can succeed'.

It seems that this treasure book is specially prepared for demons.

The cheat book is divided into upper and lower parts, the upper part records the methods of practicing Qi, and the lower part records some sword techniques and moves.

After thinking it over and over again, Zhao Yu decided to put the upper half into the system backpack and hand over the lower half to the Duke.

Without the support of Qi training methods, the moves in the second half are just decorations!

Da Taitou is dead, and I am the only one who has seen the Sunflower Book. Before I get all the books, Duke Du will not be against me in the short term.

After tidying up, just as Zhao Yu was thinking about how to deal with the dead body of Da Taitou, a rope fell from the cliff outside.

The rope was swinging, as if someone was coming down from above.

……

West Factory, Dugong Duty Room.

Dugong sat on top, and on the case in front of him was half of the Sunflower Book.

And Zhao Yu knelt down on one knee, talking about the whole process.

"The subordinates and Da Tantou found this demon book in the rock box on the cliff, and when they returned, Da Tantou accidentally fell off the cliff..."

Zhao Yujiang recounted the stories he had compiled before.

"The big stall fell off the cliff?"

Duke Du obviously didn't believe Zhao Yu's explanation.

How many catties and taels are there in the big stall, as the immediate boss, Du Gong knows it all.

Not to mention there is a rope to pull, even if there is no rope, with Da Tantou's skill, he will not fall off the cliff, right?
"Yes!"

Zhao Yu raised his head, frowned slightly and said, "But..."

"Say!"

Seeing that Zhao Yu hesitated to speak, Duke Du said in a cold voice.

"Reporting to Duke Du, before the big stall fell off the cliff, the subordinates seem to have heard the sound of piercing through the air, like the sound of a hidden weapon being fired!" Zhao Yu said nonsense vividly.

"In other words, the big stall didn't actually fall off the cliff, but someone secretly assassinated him?"

Du Gong stared at Zhao Yu and said in a deep voice.

Zhao Yu said cautiously: "This subordinate is just guessing..."

After staring at Zhao Yu for a long time, Duke Du waved his hand to signal Zhao Yu to back down.

After Zhao Yu left the lobby, he casually picked up the half of the Sunflower Book on the desk.

He naturally knew that Zhao Yu, the inspector, was talking nonsense.

At the beginning when he sent the chief to monitor Zhao Yu, he had already ordered that when he got the book, he must kill people to silence him!

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the one who came back should be Da Tantou, not Zhao Yu!
But what made him uncertain was, could it be... that the one who killed the big boss was really just a powerless inspector?

Pi Tianxiao was an accident.

But it's no coincidence that there is a big stall in Xichang!

……

After leaving the Xichang yamen, Zhao Yu walked towards home while thinking about something with a frown.

Obviously, even I don't quite believe the reason I made up, let alone the Dugong?

At this moment, the dead body of the big stall is still in his system backpack.

This thing must be disposed of as soon as possible, otherwise it would be annoying to hang around with a dead body all the time.

But now, even Zhao Yu himself doesn't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him, so he must not act rashly at this time.

When I got home, the two little maids posted up enthusiastically.In the past, Zhao Yu must be ready to move at this moment.

But seeing these two delicate little maids now, Zhao Yu broke out in cold sweat all over his body.

Even when eating at night, Zhao Yu put some of the meals into the system backpack without the two maids noticing.

Only when the backpack judged that there was no poison in the food did he dare to swallow it.

I was poor in my previous life, but I wasn't so worried!

Living, it seems, is not an easy task anywhere.

……

The next day.

After Zhao Yu had breakfast, when he was about to go out to go to the Xichang yamen to order his hair, a servant came galloping outside the door.

"The governor's secret order!"

After dismounting from his horse, the follower, Fan Yan, came directly to Zhao Yu: "The governor has an order, ordering Zhao Yu from all the households to be inspected, and immediately go to Xihuamen, and there must be no mistakes!"

Zhao Yu cupped his fists and said, "Follow the order!"

After the follower Fanyi left, Zhao Yu frowned.

Dugong let himself go to Xihua Gate?
To be honest, if it weren't for my ability to inspect hundreds of households and have a little ability to raid homes, it would not be easy for me to meet someone at the level of Dugong according to my status.

However, the Sunflower Book has already been given to Duke Du. It stands to reason that such a small role as myself should be dismissed, so why would I secretly recruit myself?

After thinking about it, Zhao Yu still rushed to Xihua Gate without stopping.

When Zhao Yu arrived outside the Xihua Gate, he found that besides himself, there were more than 30 people on standby here.

Among them, there are seven or eight from a hundred households alone, and there is one who manages a thousand households...

"Have you heard? East Factory Superintendent Tong Zhi Wan Eunuch was killed!"

Before Zhao Yu walked in, he heard those hundreds of households whispering together.

"Ah?! Eunuch Wan Yulou?"

"That's right, the Longjiang naval inspector had his head decapitated by a quack swordsman!"

"Impossible? Although we have always been at odds with Dongchang, Wan Yulou is also a supervisor and acquaintance. There are so many masters around him, and Eunuch Wan's own martial arts are unfathomable. Who has this ability?!"

"I heard it's someone named... Zhao Shaoyi."

……

Zhao Shaoyi? !

Hearing this name, Zhao Yu's eyes widened suddenly.

When other people hear this name, they may just think that he is a martial arts swordsman.

But Zhao Yu knew clearly that the appearance of this guy was related to a secret that was as rich as an enemy!
Following this line of thought, Zhao Yu immediately understood why Duke Du had gathered his cronies outside the city at this time.

And... Zhao Yu looked around, except for himself, all the guys who were secretly summoned by Duke Du were not weak in their hands.

A moment later, the Dugong in a brocade robe came on horseback, followed by a servant with cold eyes.

"Go to the canal ferry first, and then we will divide into two groups. The governor will take the water route, and you will lead the other team to take the dry road..."

Duke Du whispered to the followers behind him.

"Yes!"

……

A group of people galloped on horses and arrived at the canal pier after a long while.

Far away, Zhao Yu saw a terrifying giant ship docked not far away!

In the past, Zhao Yu, who always felt that ancient warships were not very strong in film and television dramas, was completely dumbfounded at this moment.

How does this look like a ship? !
It is simply a monster crawling on the canal!
"Inspector Qianhu brings people on board with me, and the rest go on dry roads!"

After the duke got off his horse, he walked towards the blessing boat and gave instructions.

"Inspect thousands of households?"

The entourage was taken aback for a moment, and then asked softly: "Duke didn't call the inspector Qianhu for this secret trip."

Hearing this, Duke Du stopped, and then turned to look at Zhao Yu who was hanging behind the crowd.

Zhao Yu stepped forward quickly and came in front of Duke Du.

"From today onwards, he will be the inspector of Qianhu in the West Factory!"
