Seven-star Sword Master

"It would be unreasonable for me not to go."

In short, what Hu Juncai meant was that I have just arrived and have not accomplished anything, so let me handle this matter.

He might also want to take credit for it. After all, ever since he came to the Inspection Office and took office, he found that the entire Ningtai Township was peaceful. It was not like other places where demons and monsters would cause trouble from time to time.

Afterwards, when he asked, he found out that just before he took office, Liu Xiangyang took his men to wipe out all the demons in the city.

This situation gave Hu Juncai a headache. If the city remained as peaceful as it is now in the future, where would he go to achieve military merit?

After all, if one wants to be promoted within the Inspection Department, solid achievements are the most reliable;

If he doesn't have any merit in the future, how can he get promoted?

If he didn't know the ins and outs of Liu Xiangyang leading people to clear out the demons, Hu Juncai would really think that Liu Xiangyang wanted credit or was excluding him and cleared out the demons in advance.

Liu Xiangyang glanced at Shen Changming calmly, but did not see anything unusual on Shen Changming's face.

"Well, since Lord Hu has volunteered, let's leave this matter to Lord Hu."

Liu Xiangyang only hesitated for a moment. He had previously asked Shen Changming about Hu Juncai's strength.

Knowing that he has reached the ninth level of the Spiritual Liquid Realm, since Shen Changming was able to recommend him to come to Ningtai Township to serve as the Pacification Envoy, his strength must not be too bad.

"But this matter is of great importance. Lord Hu must rush to Beishan Village as soon as possible after the meeting."

Liu Xiangyang added another sentence.

"it is good."

Since there is merit to be gained, it doesn't matter when we set off.

As if he suddenly thought of something, Hu Juncai added:

"After all, I have just arrived in Ningtai Township. I am not familiar with this place and need some help from the side."

While saying this, Hu Juncai sneered in his heart.

Because he thought of Zhao Lei who had played tricks on him before. If you dare to play tricks on me like this, don't blame me for being rude.

"Master Hu, don't worry about the manpower. I'll ask Butler Ma to arrange it later."

Ma Jinbao, who was recording the meeting content, stood up and said, "Okay, sir. I will arrange it immediately after the meeting."

"Okay, we've almost finished discussing this. Does anyone have anything to add?"

After saying this, Liu Xiangyang glanced around and didn't see anyone who wanted to speak. He then looked at Shen Changming and said:

"Master Shen, do you have anything to add about this meeting?"

Shen Changming shook his head and said, "After all, I don't know the situation in your Ningtai Township. You should do what you usually do now."

Liu Xiangyang didn't care about Shen Changming's obvious excuse.

After all, how could a superior official of a county possibly interfere in the affairs of a township below?

"Okay, in that case, let's adjourn the meeting and proceed with everything as we discussed before."

After saying this, Liu Xiangyang instructed Ma Jinbao:

"Manager Ma, go and arrange some personnel for Lord Hu."

"it is good."

Seeing this, Hu Juncai quickly called Ma Jinbao;

"Manager Ma, wait a moment."

Ma Jinbao, who was about to leave, turned around and looked at Hu Juncai who asked him to stop. He asked Hu Juncai with a puzzled look on his face:

"Master Hu, is there anything else?"

"It's like this, Manager Ma. Something has happened in a village as big as Beishan Village. I thought I should call Zhao Lei, the third-level patrol guard in the Si Mansion, to come along."

As soon as Ma Jinbao heard Hu Juncai's words, he knew what Hu Juncai was planning. Fortunately, he arranged for Zhao Lei to leave in advance, otherwise something might really happen.

Thinking of this, Ma Jinbao said in embarrassment: "Sir, this may not be appropriate."

"Hmm? What's wrong with this, Manager Ma?"

Hearing the questioning tone in Hu Juncai's words and seeing Ma Jinbao's embarrassment, Liu Xiangyang interrupted at the right time:

"Does Chief Steward Ma have any difficulties? Or is Inspector Zhao not in the mansion?"

Although Liu Xiangyang was asking Ma Jinbao, the bias in his words was quite obvious.

After Liu Xiangyang asked, Ma Jinbao said to Liu Xiangyang:

"It is like this, sir. Things have been unsettled down there lately, and it is almost time to distribute supplies, so Inspector Zhao took on the task of distributing supplies and left the city this morning."

"Oh."

Liu Xiangyang nodded, then he looked at Hu Juncai and said:

"Since Inspector Zhao is not in the Si Mansion, how about letting Lord Lu accompany Lord Hu?"

Since Hu Juncai wanted to cause trouble, he would make things difficult for Hu Juncai.

Aren’t you, Hu Juncai, thinking of finding someone?

Okay, I will help you and find someone who is equal to you to go with you.

Don't you want to take all the credit? I want you to share half of the credit. Let's see what you, Hu Juncai, will choose.

"It's not impossible. Since Lord Hu thinks the matter is difficult to handle, I will go with him."

At this time, Lu Feipeng also volunteered. Jokingly, not to mention his relationship with Ma Jinbao, Zhao Lei had just helped him deliver a letter home, and there was no way he wouldn't say a word for Zhao Lei.

"Since Inspector Zhao is not in the city, there is no need to trouble Lord Lu. I am enough."

Are you kidding? He finally got a chance to go on a mission, how could he give up half of the credit he had earned?

He finally realized that Liu Xiangyang and Lu Feipeng were clearly in the same group.

Even Eunuch Xu beside him felt a headache, but he had already expected this result.

He had raised objections when Liu Xiangyang recommended Lu Feipeng to his superiors before, but he just raised an opinion and did not take the matter to heart.

At that time, he thought that even if Liu Xiangyang put Lu Feipeng's name up, it would be useless. After all, there were many people waiting for the position of one of the four envoys of a township.

But Eunuch Xu could never have imagined that the higher-ups would actually agree to Liu Xiangyang's proposal, which put Eunuch Xu in a very passive position. After all, it was too late for him to raise any objections at this point.

"Okay, in that case, let's proceed as planned."

After saying that, Liu Xiangyang nodded to Ma Jinbao, signaling him to arrange personnel.

After Ma Jinbao arrived at the hall, he unceremoniously called out all the patrol guards who had been close to Bai Haiqing, leaving no one behind.

The degree of danger of this mission was unknown, so he simply sent out all the patrol guards who were close to the sect.

If Hu Juncai can handle this incident, then everything will be fine and he won't lose anything.

If he can't even deal with Hu Juncai, then none of these patrol guards close to the sect will ever come back alive. He wants to make Hu Juncai a lone commander in the Patrol Department in the future.

Since Hu Juncai dared to threaten him, he is no pushover.

He now has the support of two Siping envoys. As long as he does not face Hu Juncai head-on, Ma Jinbao is not afraid at all.

Before leaving, Hu Juncai came to Shen Changming's room and knocked on the door.

"dong dong dong"

"Come in."

As Shen Changming's slightly majestic voice sounded, Hu Juncai walked in respectfully.

"Uncle Master."

It turns out that Shen Changming and Hu Juncai actually have this kind of relationship. Yes, they are from the same sect, and Hu Juncai's master is Shen Changming's senior brother.

"Juncai, your performance really disappoints me. If I had known you were like this, I would never have recommended you to be the envoy to Pingbei."

I didn't expect that these would be Shen Changming's first words after meeting Hu Juncai.

Hearing this, Hu Juncai's heart skipped a beat. He quickly said in panic:

"Master, please listen to my excuses. Ah, no, that's not right. You should listen to my explanation..."

Hu Juncai then recounted what happened on his first day in office, but he slightly embellished what Shen Changming had said. Although he did not exaggerate, he still described himself as being too pitiful.

Sure enough, after these nine true and one false words were spoken, Shen Changming's expression improved a little.

"Hey, Juncai, you said that you must be cautious in the early stage when you first arrive, you know? First, find out the situation and general context of the Si Mansion before taking any action..."

After listening carefully for a while, Hu Juncai asked Shen Changming some questions before leaving.

In this way, Hu Juncai led a dozen patrol guards out of the city gate and headed north.

It's already this late, even if Hu Juncai and his team are as fast as they can, it's impossible for them to reach Beishan Village. Moreover, they can't travel at night, so they have to wait until tomorrow to reach Beishan Village.

Lu Feipeng stayed in the study room, thinking hard, wondering how he could make another breakthrough in his swordsmanship.

The next level is Seven Swords Combined into Three. As the name suggests, it means to use the power of seven swords in an instant to strike out with three swords.

Ever since he saw the sword technique taught to him by Master Long last time, he has been thinking hard in his mind how to achieve this level.

But a year has passed and there has been no progress on this matter.

Even the three swords are clueless, let alone Guiyi.

Returning to one means combining the power of seven swords into one in an instant.

After his shift, Wang Yu Shi found him.

"Captain Wang, what's the matter?"

Lu Feipeng looked at Wang Yu Shi in some confusion. Under normal circumstances, Wang Yu Shi would not take the initiative to look for him.

Wang Yushi said awkwardly, "Captain Lu, I have something to ask you."

Today the sun really rose from the west.

"what happened?"

"It's like this, Captain Lu. Didn't Patrolman Zhao go to deliver supplies yesterday? I wrote a letter home and asked Patrolman Zhao to take all the money I had with me back."

After saying this, Wang Yu Shi's voice became a little hesitant.

"Can I, can I borrow some silver coins from you?"

After he finished speaking, Wang Yushi's face turned red, and his ears and neck were all red.

"Hey, I thought it was something, No!"

As he spoke, Lu Feipeng took out a handful of silver coins worth about ten or twenty yuan from his pocket and stuffed them into Wang Yu Shi's hand.

After hearing what Wang Yu Shi said, Lu Feipeng wondered why he didn't think of asking Zhao Lei to bring some money and supplies back?
