This name was lightly spoken by a beggar.
Chen Ji and others did not react yet.
Zhang Tudou suddenly woke up from his astonishment earlier and then forcefully pinched a handful of his own belly.
Shh! Not auditory hallucination!
But why?!
Zhang Tutou is not a jealous person, he just cant understand things simply.
Although Im not very interested in things about the imperial court.
But the General of Qingzhou is a contemporary of the leaders of various major factions, and the Demon-Suppressing Department has always been in a position to dominate the Jianghu. The other party can do whatever they want in Qingzhou.
It can be said that for ordinary martial artists, the other side is more like a rumor story used to relieve boredom after tea and dinner, with a storyteller slapping a wooden board.
How did I suddenly get involved with people around me?
"Dont talk nonsense!"
Old Liu frowned and glared at the beggar.
Rumors spread like wildfire over nothing, its really been a long time since theyve had food to eat, their mouths have no gate.
He shook his head and looked at Shen Yi again, sighing: "In the letter to General, it did mention that sentence, but youve been away for years, who knows when youll be back, even if you are... anyway, dont get your hopes up too high."
Old Liu is a down-to-earth person and doesnt want the other party to feel too much of a gap, which would lead to unnecessary emotions and waste a promising talent.
He glanced sideways and Zhang Butou understood the meaning, scratching his head into the main hall, and chatted with Chen Ji and others.
"Mr. Lin has been possessed by a demon and has already been escorted away from Baiyun County by a special person to find Generalissimo, he wont be returning to Qingzhou for the time being."
Lao Liu lowered his voice: "After joining the Demon-Suppressing Department, we are all sworn brothers... These brothers dont mind taking a knife for you, but they also dont want to see you rise to power overnight, especially those who have just arrived. Its human nature, so please be understanding."
Few words, much meaning.
Rather than saying its knocking, its better to say its reminding.
Shen Yi pondered for a moment before understanding what the other party meant.
The "talent" he deliberately showed in front of Lin Baiwei really worked.
Everything has its gains and losses.
Dont look at this group of people in front of you who are all smiling, actually... their hearts are probably not as happy as they seem.
They are all figures who have exchanged their lives for achievements.
If you really put on a pose of climbing high branches, it doesnt matter if the background is hard enough. Whats scary is that its not that hard, and then it belongs to self-inflicted suffering.
"According to Li Xinhans intention, send you back first, everything will be handled as usual, dont reveal any news, wait for the two masters to return and make arrangements."
Old Liu finished speaking and then fell silent.
Li Touer is indeed hot-tempered, but hes not a bad person at heart. If Shen Yi has his own plans or feels that others are suppressing him, then so be it, let him go.
"I have no opinion."
Shen Yi shook her head.
Joining the Demon-Slaying Department has two benefits: one is having a reliable backer when killing demons, and the other is access to martial arts and precious medicine.
The former can allow oneself to have more information channels when facing demons, rather than being like now, except for the county town, everything outside is a complete mystery.
With enough demonic energy to support it.
With the help of martial arts and precious medicine, it is much faster than self-improvement.
Compared with these practical benefits, things that are only nominally valuable but temporarily bring trouble are not what Shen Yi values.
As you said, if theres really a benefit, then it cant be obtained until the person comes back.
Old Liu quietly observed his changing expression.
Shens eyes were clear and bright, her mouth said she had no opinion, and her expression was indeed indifferent.
This reaction actually surprised him secretly.
Everyone understands that drawing cakes cant alleviate hunger, but when such a great opportunity falls on oneself, even if 99% of it is fake, how many people can completely ignore it.
Of course, there is also a possibility that the other party has already eaten the cake.
"Grass, you didnt really take down Lord Lin, did you?!"
Recalling the loose clothes on Lin Baiweis body yesterday, Old Liu gritted his teeth and his persistent conviction suddenly loosened a bit.
Several people behind him rushed to kick him to the ground: "You son of a bitch is asking for trouble!"
Dare to spread rumors about catching demons, if those ascetics who hang out in the demons lair every day hear about it, they will definitely skin this kid alive.
"We came out with a difference, just temporarily coming to Baiyun County for a trip, its a bit rushed, you quickly go home and pack up, just in time to go with us."
The beggar pressed Lao Lius face to the ground and helplessly smiled at Shen Yi.
……
Outside the government office.
Several young and strong men who were chosen clenched their fists in excitement.
In a world filled with demons and chaos, having some martial arts skills by your side is undoubtedly the fastest way to elevate your status.
Dont look at them as ordinary runners and soldiers today, if they can pass the trial training of the Demon-Suppressing Department, when they return to Baiyun County again, even the county magistrate will have to entertain them with courtesy.
As they thought of this, they couldnt help but look towards the young man in front of them.
No one is blind or deaf. Although they couldnt hear very clearly what the group of school masters and the other side said, just by looking at their attitude, they knew.
Shen Cais head is absolutely not going to try training with people like himself.
Unfortunately, there was no close relationship in daily life, and now going to build a connection seems a bit awkward... At least with the same hometown identity, after entering the Town Demon Division, at least there will be some thin face.
"Shen Lao Da, I still need to go home and accompany my mother, and also comfort my daughter-in-law."
Instead, the two people who were closer to Shen Yi didnt have many thoughts on their mind. Niu Da hurriedly got up and left, adjusting his pants as he said goodbye and prepared to run off.
Chen Ji had always thought that Shen Yi was no ordinary person, and even if that certain General really took him as a disciple, it wouldnt be anything strange.
Whether its a trial training or going straight in as an employee, its just a matter of time.
"Lord Shen..." He cupped his hands together in respect.
"Thats about it." Shen Yi tidied up her thoughts and waved her hand.
I can finally take off this poor clothing, and its also a break from all those despicable things I did with my previous life.
Not serving in government office, no need to be called "sir" anymore.
Just looking at Niu Das back, I have some feelings.
Leaving ones hometown is always a sorrowful thing with countless worries.
Shen Yi also tried hard to squeeze out some sorrow, but after careful consideration, she had no relatives to bid farewell to, nor a home to remember, and the humble abode she lived in was still a government office.
There are only two friends who can talk with each other, one is in the same profession as oneself, and the other...
Shen Yi turned his head and glanced at Zhang Tuhou, only to see the other smiling and following behind him. He recalled what he had said earlier about going back to Qingzhou to visit an old friend.
Got it, another high probability is also in the same industry.
I couldnt possibly go find Qinglins mother to bid her farewell.
"Lets go, lets go down to the restaurant." Shen Yi shook the silver note in his hand.
"Off you go, off you go! These days everyones mouth is as dry as a birds nest. Lets find three more to play the flute and sing!" Zhang Butou patted his belly with force.
“……”
Who would bring silver tickets to an inn?
Chen Ji took out the silver ingot from his waist and sighed: "Two will do, I dont need it."
"Its alright, Ill use two." Zhang Butcher patted his shoulder with a big smile.
