I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 97 Powerful Water Embroidery Pattern
  "You guys! You can only look at it but not touch it! This is a treasure left to Cao Shuixiu."

"Master Tian, ​​when will Cao Shuixiu come?"

"It should be soon... Oh, it's coming. Master Cao, please come here quickly. If you don't come, they will take away your treasure and test your strength."

Master Tian overcame the knot in his heart and swept away his previous mean temper. Now he was laughing and showing off his treasure. It seemed that he had indeed created something remarkable.

When it comes to making money, if the craftsmen go to find a big power to worship, they will definitely earn more than the salary of the imperial court.

But who comes here but doesn’t study the imperial court’s unique secret book and learn and communicate with craftsmen from all over the world?

Master Tian has not returned for a long time, but his skills are still superb. This forging with all his strength attracted many onlookers.

Cao An walked over quickly, clasped his fists in greeting, and said gratefully: "We haven't seen you for a few days. Master Tian looks a lot better! It's really hard for you to make water embroidery for me."

"No, no, you are my benefactor, just a treasure, nothing. Come and see if you like it."

Cao An looked down and saw a piece of green cloth one foot long and wide placed on the table.

The cloth is mainly made of blue and white silk thread, and is embroidered with a rhombus pattern of misty water clouds.

At first glance, it looks like clouds and water, and it seems to be just simple embroidery?

But if you look closely, you can see that there are ever-changing scales and leaves among the water lines.

Looking at it carefully, the water waves seem to come alive, and the scale leaves flash with a faint light, just like the waves of the sea under the rising sun, endlessly alive and mysterious.

"This is a fourth-grade treasure. It is the pinnacle of my work since I entered the industry." After sweeping away the gloom, Master Tian finally broke through and broke through the shackles of his decades.

As soon as he said this, the craftsmen around him applauded him with sincere respect.

The fourth level is a level. If everyone calls him Master Tian on weekdays, it is just an honorific title.

So now, he will be certified as a "Master Craftsman" from the imperial court, become a doctor in the Ministry of Staff, and be ranked in the fifth rank.

Of course, many people cast envious and jealous glances at Cao An.

This wave of help in times of crisis allowed Cao An to gain the kindness of a great craftsman. He came to ask for treasures every now and then. It was absolutely no problem and he made a lot of money.

Cao An was also very excited and couldn't wait to know how to use the water embroidery pattern.

"Thank you, Master Tian. How should I use this thing?"

He could feel that this thing was extraordinary, but it was such a small piece of cloth that he wouldn't be allowed to sew it on his cloak.

"Don't you hope that this thing can be ever-changing? I have already thought of a way. Just use the skin of this radish and fuse it with blue and gold silk. You can hold it in your hand and use your energy."

Cao An glanced at the carrot beside him.

Okay, I was too far away to see clearly just now. Not only are the leaves on the top of your head gone, but the skin has also been peeled off. Your whole body is naked, as if you have been violated.

Ying Huorong walked over and touched it. The carrot cried loudly while leaning on Ying Huorong's hand, which looked quite pitiful.

From the bottom of my heart, Cao An wishes the skin and leaves of this radish will grow quickly... and I'll peel you back next year.

He stretched out his hand and eagerly grasped the square cloth.

The energy gathered in the palm of his hand, as if he had reached communication with the water embroidery. The fabric dissolved quickly, and the pattern on it was printed on the back of Cao An's hand. The gold and blue alternated, rippling like water, very beautiful.

"This mark..."

"Wait a minute! Let's record the half-breath of time that can be connected to the energy, the transformation, and the shrinkage of the lines... Okay, you can continue."

"..."

Before Cao An figured out how to use it, the craftsmen around him had already started taking notes frantically, as if they wanted to use it as a set of data for reference.

However, with this test, he can better understand the performance of the treasure.

A fourth-grade treasure, this is something that is hard to find. The group of people came to the testing school and started testing.

Clang!
  boom!
  "Wow!! Pay attention! Cao Shuixiu."

"This... I didn't expect it to be so strong! It was a mistake this time."

"Quick, let's hide behind him. It's too dangerous ahead."

This hasn't even started yet, and the danger has already appeared.

Cao An just pulled out his saber and slashed it out with a blast of sword energy, directly splitting the target ten meters away into two pieces.

Master Tian was well prepared. He stood far away and asked proudly: "This is the increase in strength you want. How is the effect?"

"It's too strong. I feel it's at least twice as strong." Cao An replied excitedly.

He was also a new member of the seventh level of energy transformation. He didn't control his energy well just now and leaked a little bit. He didn't expect it to increase so much that he almost lost his life.

He drew his sword again and slashed continuously. The energy consumption of the sword that cut through iron was very low, and it had a sense of continuity, making his sword movements extremely smooth.

"The energy recovery speed is increased, the debut speed is increased, the sword energy is sharp... Do you want to try the body protection energy?"

"Ok."

boom!
  "Wow~~cough!! Can't you be more restrained and run away."

The craftsmen hiding behind Cao An suffered again. They didn't expect that Cao An's body-protecting aura was also so terrifying.

The water embroidered pattern on his right arm lit up, and a wave of blue water suddenly rose up from his body, sending all the people and objects around him flying away. The protective effect was terrifying.

Then there are underwater breathing and walking on the water, which are just a few simple functions.

Only that trick...

"I won't demonstrate the special skills." Master Tian said from the side, interrupting the craftsmen's interest. "It's useless for you to look at me. This last ability is a special move prepared for Cao An. How can I let you know about it when he faces strong enemies in the future?"

Master Tian is highly respected. Although he wants to prove his achievements, he also cares about Cao An's ideas.

Treasures are used to kill enemies, and the trump cards cannot be known to too many people.

"Thank you, Master Tian." Cao An bowed in thanks, and the rest of the demonstration turned into a private chat between the two.

It wasn't until half an hour later that the two slowly walked out of the school grounds.

Judging from Cao An's satisfied look, I'm afraid this final killing move must be extraordinary.

The craftsmen wanted to inquire about the situation from the side, but suddenly they found a group of people from six doors walking in quickly from the outside.

"Congratulations to Master Tian for being promoted to [Grand Craftsman]. Six Gates just killed a black bear monster the day before yesterday, and specially donated its claws to the Ministry of Industry."

It turned out to be congratulations!
  This group of people are really well-informed. Even the sixth-grade treasures are peeping and thirsting for it. The materials sent are euphemistically called donated to the Ministry of Works, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that they are given to the master craftsman. Congratulations.

If you can get closer to the master craftsman, it will be easier to obtain treasures in the future.

Unfortunately, providing help in times of need and adding icing on the cake are two completely different concepts.

Just now, Cao An thought his temper had improved, and when he turned to face the six doors, Master Tian's expression became serious again.

"Well, throw it away, whoever wants to use it can use it."

You can tell by the tone of his voice that this person doesn’t appreciate it!
  Of course, Cao An could also understand. After all, the story of his wife's elopement with his eldest brother was already well known throughout the city.

The Yamen and the Six Gates came forward to investigate, but there was no information at all. He had been hating him for three years in vain. It was strange that he had a good face.

Coming here to congratulate me now is just asking for trouble.

Of course, it is not as simple as it seems when these people come here to show their courtesy.

Because the leader of the team is none other than Qiao Yundong, the six-door detective in blue.

This man who had promised to repay his kindness was obviously worried about being noticed by his master, so he simply used the gift as an excuse to block Cao An in the Ministry of Works.

"Do you have a problem with me?" Cao An condensed his energy into a thread and passed it into Qiao Yundong's ears, which surprised Qiao Yundong.

It’s only been a few days since I last saw you, and you’re already at level seven?

That's better, you have the ability to protect yourself.

Qiao Yundong also sent a message: "Be careful lately, someone wants to transfer you out of Shangjiang City."

"Transfer me out of Shangjiang City? Why?"

"Because your recent behavior is too conspicuous and is disturbing others."

Qiao Yundong didn't explain much, but Cao Anneng could probably guess the specific reason.

It should be that Cao An has solved some cases recently, which hindered the enemy's plan.

In addition, every time Cao An went out, he would take the beauty Ying Huorong shopping with him. If he was not sure about killing him, it would be safer to simply remove him from his post.

Cao An nodded to express his understanding, but then something strange started to happen.

"You came here specifically to tell me, so what is your position? Who are you working for? Why are you helping me again?"

"It doesn't matter who I work for. I said I'm just repaying a favor. You don't have to believe me, but if you can't hide, it's best to bring two more helpers when you go out."

Qiao Yundong gave his final instructions and left with his subordinates, coming and going in a hurry, leaving everyone looking puzzled.

Including Cao An, he is also very curious now, what method is the enemy planning to use to transfer him out of the capital?

From a common sense point of view, officials in the capital have more prospects than local officials, and many officials who were decentralized were demoted.

As a embroiderer of the Tsing Yi Department, he has repeatedly accomplished extraordinary feats. There are also Ying Changfeng and Pang Shi mediating in the court. What is the reason for transferring him outside?

Now that Shangjiang City is in turmoil, he can't be allowed to go and serve as a county magistrate, right? Qiao Yundong's warning was really strange.

"Cao An, we got Shui Xiu, let's go get something to eat." Ying Huorong stood aside and touched his stomach. He looked hungry.

"Okay, the soldiers are here to cover up the water and the earth. I'm very hungry. Go eat first. Don't care about his conspiracy."

In Cao An's imagination, his position in the Tsing Yi Department of Water Embroidery should be untouchable by anyone.

But just two days later, a transfer order came to Cao An.

Qiao Yundong's warning the day before yesterday came true, but it was not an ordinary job transfer order, but a task transfer order.

"The Holy Spirit gave an oral instruction and Cao An went to the palace to see him."

"Enter the palace? Pang Duzhi, what's going on?"

"I know, the Holy One intends for you to take the responsibility of an imperial envoy to patrol the land of Beiyan."

Was he really transferred out?
  Although it is a temporary transfer, isn't this a trick of the enemy?

Cao An looked at Pang Shi in confusion, "I've said hello to you in advance, but you didn't even say a word or two for me?"

Pang Shi also had a headache and rubbed his eyebrows: "Cao Shuixiu, you also know that I am the Imperial City Sidu Zhi, a close associate of the Holy One. The Holy One wants you to go, but I can't stand up to the civil and military officials of the court to intercede for you. !”

"Everyone in the civil and military dynasty wants me to go?" Cao An was shocked! What kind of hatred is this? The whole world wants to send him away?

"Well, the specific situation is rather troublesome. You can't delay this matter if you come into the palace with me now."
