Chapter 452 Soul Palace
Fortunately, Ning Caichen's persistence was not in vain. He felt that he answered the test questions this time very well.

If there are no accidents, he will be on the list. If his grades are good, he will be selected into the six departments to do some basic work, and it will take decades to get to the edge of power.

If the grades are a little worse, he will serve as the censor and spend decades, cursing this and that every day, and then waiting to retire.

If the grades are worse, it may be possible to stay for a while, and if there is a connection, it may be able to serve as a county magistrate in some places.

Even so, the road ahead is difficult, but Ning Caichen is still very happy.

Because from this moment on, he is no longer a citizen, but an official!
Although he is only an official the size of a sesame mung bean, he is hundreds of times better than a civilian.

All this persistence is still effective! !
Ning Caichen was full of happiness, waiting for the announcement.

"What about Brother Geng and the others?"

Only then did Ning Caichen realize that he seemed to be missing something.

Li Pu was with him all the way, if not for Li Pu, he doesn't know where he is staying now.

As far as this world is concerned, he might have been dragged to jail long ago, and then inexplicably scapegoated for others.

Now that I don't see Li Pu suddenly, I still feel a little empty in my heart.

At this time, he felt hungry and thirsty, so Ning Caichen took a few taels of silver, went to the street, looked for a noodle stall, ordered a bowl of noodles, and planned to eat first.

At this moment, a person was wearing a black robe and walking on the street. Passers-by on both sides saluted this person one after another.

"who is this?"

Ning Caichen was a little surprised why these people respected this person so much, and asked the person beside him who put down his chopsticks to look around.

"You don't know?"

When this person saw Ning Caichen asking, he was very strange, as if he should know.

"Xiaosheng participated in Chunwei these few days, and I really don't know who this Taoist is."

"So that's it, this is the person in the Soul Palace."

"Soul Palace?"

Ning Caichen frowned, as soon as he heard this thing, he knew it was not a good thing.

"That's right. To the east of the imperial palace, a large hall was built in just one hour. It's called the Soul Hall. Anyone who is capable can go to the Soul Hall to accept tasks in exchange for reward."

"An hour?"

"Yeah, we didn't believe it at first, but there is a Taoist priest named Zhiqiu Taoist priest. He used his great mana to build a hall in just one hour. He is really an extraordinary person."

Ning Caichen felt what was wrong with this world, so he just went to take part in a scientific examination, and then he became so strange when he came out.

"Then why is it called the Soul Palace?"

Ning Caichen was still a little puzzled.

"This is because the missions they issued were to slay demons and eliminate demons. After they completed the missions, they needed to bring back the souls of the demons to hand in the missions. Therefore, people called the hall the Hall of Souls."

"I see……"

For some reason, Ning Caichen always felt that this style seemed very familiar.

"Then their black robes?"

"Oh, this is the uniform of the Soul Hall. Have you seen the chains around his waist? That's what is used to detain the souls of demons and goblins."

Hearing what this person said, Ning Caichen quickly took a few mouthfuls of noodles, got up and ran towards the east of the palace.

A grand hall can be seen from a long distance away. Several guards from the palace are standing in front of the hall, indicating that this place has an official nature.

Walking into it, I saw a wall in the center of the hall, and countless scrolls were hung on this wall, and these scrolls were divided into four areas: heaven, earth, black and yellow.

Among them, the yellow level is the lowest level, and the scrolls here are also the most.

Various names are written on these scrolls, such as the lonely ghost in the mountain village, the female corpse in the river, the vicious tiger in the mountains...

These should be the names of these tasks, and looking at the Xuan-level area, the names here are obviously a little scary, such as resentment, red-clothed ghost, thousand-year-old python...

Ning Caichen couldn't help but shuddered, hurriedly left here, and walked towards the next area.

Millennium wolf monsters, ogre swarms, group zombie crypts...

Just by listening, you can tell that ordinary people in these places are afraid that there will be ten deaths and no life.

Looking at the next area, there are obviously much fewer scrolls here, only a few.

The evil dragon in the sea, the city of death in vain, the ghost of death...

Ning Caichen hastily left and took a few steps back, fearful but also curious as to how these things were collected.

There are not many people in this hall, and most of them are surrounded by the yellow-level area, there are only a few people in the mysterious-level area, and there are none in the earth-level area, let alone the sky-level area.

At this moment, a person seemed to have chosen a mission, and Ning Caichen followed this person to see how he would accept the mission.

I saw that this person took the token and came to a counter with some spells on it, when the person handed the scroll into the counter.

The person at the counter handed out a token, and the word "hun" was written on the front of the token.

This person took the token and walked out. There were only a dozen people in the hall.

It stands to reason that the people should like to watch the excitement, but there is no one in the soul hall to watch the excitement.

Ning Caichen thought about it and then laughed, this place is named after souls, people with magic power come in and out, and it is next to the palace, ordinary people dare to come to this kind of place to watch the excitement.

Just like ordinary people, does anyone dare to go to the military camp to watch the excitement?
At this moment, Ning Caichen saw a familiar person.

"Brother Zuo!"

Seeing Zuo Qianhu striding into the hall, Ning Caichen hurried forward to greet him.

"Ning...Brother Ning!"

Zuo Qianhu thought for a while before he remembered who Ning Caichen was, and walked forward with an embarrassed face.

"Brother Zuo, this is it?"

Ning Caichen pointed to the token in Zuo Qianhu's hand.

"This is the token to hand over the task."

After saying that, Zuo Qianhu came to another counter and handed in the token in his hand. After a while, he saw a piece of paper handed out from the counter.

"This is?"

"This is the receipt handed over after completing the task. With this receipt, you can receive the reward on the receipt the next day."

Zuo Qianhu handed the receipt to Ning Caichen, and Ning Caichen took it for a look.

It was found that the time and place, the task and the number were written on the receipt, and the task reward was ten taels of silver, and the name of the task was Ghost in the House.

Looking at the back, the back is the level of the task and the information of the recipient.

"I didn't expect you to have such a big momentum in just three days."

Ning Caichen returned the receipt in his hand to Zuo Qianhu, and said with emotion.

"Brother Geng and Zhiqiu contributed the most. I'm just an idler, haha."

Zuo Qianhu smiled and put the receipt into his clothes.

"Where is Brother Geng?"

Ning Caichen heard Zuo Qianhu mention Li Pu, and then remembered.

"Brother Geng should be calculating the real situation of the mission, let's go find him."

After all, Zuo Qianhu led Ning Caichen to a courtyard behind the main hall.

Before entering the other courtyard, I heard a rough voice.

"When death is imminent, how dare you quibble! Do you say it or not?"
