Seven-star Sword Master

"Is Inspector Lu here? Lord Liu wants you to come over."

Lu Feipeng was delighted, thinking to himself, could it be that his appointment as the Envoy to Pingnan has been settled?

So he looked in the direction of the sound and saw a yamen runner; he had some impression of this yamen runner, he was one of the two yamen runners guarding outside Liu Xiangyang's door and taking orders.

"Okay, wait a minute."

He said to Zhou Yiming and Wang Yushi who were sitting opposite him:

"I'll go there first."

"grown ups."

"Congratulations, Inspector Lu. Oh no, I should call you Lord Lu from now on, hahahaha..."

While joking, Liu Xiangyang also imitated Lu Feipeng and bowed to him.

"Forehead!"

Lu Feipeng suddenly felt upset, but after hearing Liu Xiangyang's words, the stone in his heart finally fell.

"It is like this, Inspector Lu. This morning I received a letter from Fanyang County, which agreed to recommend you to serve as the Envoy for Pacificating the South. The new Envoy for Pacificating the North will leave from Fanyang County today, and your appointment documents will also arrive with the new Envoy for Pacificating the North."

Liu Xiangyang didn't let Lu Feipeng wait for long, and quickly told Lu Feipeng the purpose of asking him to come, and added at the end:

"Congratulations, Master Lu."

Hearing Liu Xiangyang's words that his appointment as the envoy to Pingnan was completed, Lu Feipeng hurriedly bowed to Liu Xiangyang in return:

"This time Fei Peng was able to serve as the envoy to Pingnan thanks to the recommendation of Lord Liu."

Lu Feipeng quickly bowed to Liu Xiangyang to express his gratitude.

After leaving Liu Xiangyang, Lu Feipeng walked with light steps.

There was nothing to do today. In the afternoon, he led several patrol guards to tour Ningtai Township. When they passed the battlefield in the west of the city, the original ruins had all been cleared up. This made Lu Feipeng sigh at how efficient this world is.

At night, he declined the invitation to dinner from Ma Jinbao and others because he had important things to do tonight.

A jade bottle stood in his hand, and in the bottle was a thousand-year-old spiritual liquid. Yes, tonight was the day of his breakthrough.

Although this situation had happened several times, Lu Feipeng still felt nervous. He took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm.

He pulled out the cork, held up the jade bottle, tilted the mouth of the bottle, and a drop of milky white spiritual milk dripped from the bottle.

After a violent shaking in the Dantian, the fourth pool of spiritual liquid was generated.

At the moment when this pool of spiritual liquid was formed, Lu Feipeng, who was meditating and practicing Qigong, suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes; he murmured:

"The fourth level of the Spiritual Fluid Realm."

The next moment he closed his eyes and continued to practice. At this time, he had just made a breakthrough and needed to familiarize himself with the use of the spiritual power in his body.

Noon on the vertical day;

The patrol guard had just finished his lunch when a voice came from outside.

"Oh no! Something happened!"

This voice was familiar to most of the people present, except for patrol guards like Wang Yushi who had just joined the Patrol Department.

"What happened to Captain Ding?"

Soon a patrol guard walked towards Ding Zhichang.

Whoohoo!

Ding Zhichang stopped in the hall and said breathlessly:

"It's bad, my lords. There are a large number of rats migrating in the city. More than a dozen people have been bitten, and before I came, three people had already died."

"What!" "How could this happen?"

Everyone present was shocked. You have to know that this is the city of Ningtai Township, and there are two Siping envoys in the city. How could a large number of rats migrate here?

And it is common sense that once there is a large-scale migration of animals, it must be that something big is about to happen nearby.

How could such a situation possibly occur in Ningtai Township?

"Captain Ding, are you sure it's a mouse and not a demon rat?"

An older patrol guard suddenly spoke up, and it was obvious that he was skeptical about what Ding Zhichang had said before.

"Yes yes yes!"

At this time, some patrol guards who had reacted spoke up in agreement.

Obviously they would rather believe that these large-scale migrations were demon rats than mice.

Although there is only one word difference, the meaning they represent is worlds apart.

Everyone looked at Ding Zhichang with expectation, hoping that Ding Zhichang would say yes.

But reality is always cruel. The greater your expectations, the greater your disappointment will be.

Ding Zhichang just shook his head and said:

"I can still distinguish between a demon rat and a mouse. I'm pretty sure it's a mouse."

Lu Feipeng suddenly looked towards Zhao Lei and said:

"Brother Zhao, I will take someone to take a look. You stay in the Si Mansion just in case. Someone will go and inform the two adults about this matter."

Before Zhao Lei could respond, he said to the patrol guards in the crowd:

"The patrol guards on this afternoon patrol will come with me."

Seeing that Lu Feipeng was going, Ding Zhichang was delighted and said:

"That's great, Lord Lu, if you go, this matter will surely be resolved soon."

There was a reason why he said that, because before Lu Feipeng came, although the patrol guards also dealt with incidents involving demons in the city, it often took these patrol guards a long time to get rid of the demons.

But Lu Feipeng was different. After he had come into contact with Lu Feipeng several times, he found that except for the two combined Xuan Mo before, none of the demons wreaking havoc in the city could survive more than three moves in his hands.

Lu Feipeng didn't care about Ding Zhichang's words. He knew that everything was fake. Only the position of Pingnan Envoy and his strength were real.

He just glanced at Ding Zhichang and said:

"Captain Ding, lead the way."

"it is good!"

Ding Zhichang quickly turned around and walked out.

At the same time, a patrol guard walked quickly towards the inner hall. Ma Jinbao received the news soon. He did not dare to slack off and hurriedly trotted towards Liu Xiangyang's study.

After getting permission, Ma Jinbao hurried into the study.

After entering the study, he found that Eunuch Xu was also there, so he didn't have to run again to tell Eunuch Xu.

"grown ups."

After entering the room, Ma Jinbao hurriedly saluted the two of them.

"What's wrong Jimbo?"

He rarely saw Ma Jinbao with such an anxious expression, but every time he saw him, he knew that something big must have happened.

"You are such an adult."

So Ma Jinbao told Liu Xiangyang everything.

"What did you say?"

Eunuch Xu stood up from the mat in a flash, with an expression of disbelief, staring at Ma Jinbao who was reporting.

Even Liu Xiangyang couldn't sit still, but he was not as startled as Eunuch Xu.

Liu Xiangyang slowly stood up from the futon, stared at Ma Jinbao and asked:

"You mean there's a massive migration of rats in the city?"

Ma Jinbao hurriedly bowed again and said:

"Yes, sir. Inspector Lu has already led people to investigate."

Liu Xiangyang just asked: "Where?"

Ma Jinbao hurriedly said, "My Lord, it's in the south of the city."

"Eunuch Xu, you stay here and take charge of the Si Mansion. I will go and check it out."

As Liu Xiangyang was speaking, his body slowly floated into the air and was about to leave when he was stopped by Eunuch Xu.

"Wait a minute, Lord Liu. Since Lord Lu has already gone to investigate, why don't you not go? Let's discuss it and report this matter to Fanyang County as soon as possible."

Liu Xiangyang, who was floating in the air, looked back at Eunuch Xu and said:

"I'd better go and take a look myself. Although Lord Lu has been appointed as the envoy to pacify the south, he has too little experience after all. There are some situations that I'd better go there in person to be assured."

After saying this, Liu Xiangyang's figure disappeared from the spot in a flash.

"what!"

Ma Jinbao, who was looking down at the ground, was shocked. He suddenly raised his head and looked up at Eunuch Xu.

What did he just hear?

If he heard correctly just now, the two adults called Brother Lu "Auntie" and also mentioned the Envoy to Pingnan.

But if he heard correctly, could it be that Brother Lu is already qualified to be the envoy of Pingnan?

But he has only joined the Inspection Department for a few days?

No, that's not right!

Brother Lu has not joined any of the four factions in the Inspection Department, so how could he be qualified for the post of Envoy of Pingnan?

But if that's the case, then what the two adults said just now doesn't seem to be false!

"Sir, I just heard Sir Liu say, say..."

Ma Jinbao looked at Eunuch Xu. He really wanted to ask Eunuch Xu what was going on, but he was not close to Eunuch Xu, so there were some things he couldn't say directly.

Eunuch Xu was already very upset with Liu Xiangyang for leaving without permission because he did not give him face. Now, Ma Jinbao, a small patrol guard, actually spoke to him in such a tone.

But unfortunately, Liu Xiangyang is now a Jindan-stage cultivator, which is much higher than his own cultivation level, and the man in front of him is Liu Xiangyang's trusted subordinate.

What's more, he heard that Uncle Ma Jinbao seemed to be from the same village as the newly appointed Pingnan Envoy Lu Feipeng. Although he was extremely unhappy, he still didn't dare to offend him too much.

After all, if this kid said bad things about me in front of Liu Xiangyang and Lu Feipeng, and they became dissatisfied with me, how could I get their support for any decision I made in the future?

He didn't know whether Ma Jinbao would report him, but he himself often reported him in private, judging by his own conscience.

Especially when he was in the palace, he would even report any eunuch who stole leftovers in order to gain the appreciation of the bigwigs above.

"Say!"

Thinking of this, Eunuch Xu suppressed his impatience.

"Sir, I heard you say something about Brother Lu Feipeng talking about the Pingnan Envoy."

"Oh, that's it."

Eunuch Xu was wondering what happened. Just as he was about to say something, his eyes suddenly turned, and he looked at Ma Jinbao with a puzzled expression and said:

"Hey, something's wrong, don't you know?"

Ma Jinbao quickly shook his head and said, "I don't know."

I only heard Eunuch Xu continue to say:

"That shouldn't be the case. Liu Xiangyang personally recommended Lord Lu for his appointment. It's been a day or two. Didn't Liu Xiangyang tell you?"

Although Eunuch Xu said this, he was already very happy in his heart.

Although he could not sow discord between the two of them by doing this, he was still very happy that he could make the other person uncomfortable.

"Hmph, I told you not to listen to me."
