Please call me Huanxian

Chapter 11 Sure enough, it has a deeper meaning

Seeing the two of them flying up out of thin air, their robes fluttering, and heading south, Xu Yuanchang couldn't help but feel envious.

When he was at Izumo Temple, he occasionally saw figures of Taoist priests coming and going, disappearing among the clouds on the top of the mountain, but it was not as intuitive as seeing it with his own eyes, and he felt more and more longing and expectation in his heart.

From the foot of the mountain in the distance, a child's voice exclaimed: "Look at the sky, there are gods!"

"Wow, what a fairy."

"Flying so fast, faster than a bird."

"The gods I see first, I see first."

There was a lot of noise and excitement, and the two black spots in the sky disappeared into the clouds on the horizon.

Xu Yuanchang smiled and shook his head. Children's words are unbridled, and gods will not blame them.

Old Ding came from the path down the slope. He had traveled through rivers and lakes, had seen the world in the city, and had seen immortals many times. He would not make a fuss. He knew that in the world of immortals, they call themselves "immortal cultivators" or "monks".

Xu Yuanchang invited Lao Ding into the courtyard. Instead of making tea, he cut braised meat and poured wine from a large bowl to entertain the guests. The two drank and chatted.

After all, Fifth Master Wei was reluctant to let his eldest son go to jail. All the sins fell on the eldest young master's companion who was caught.

A lot of money was spent on the ups and downs, but later the family was separated and the eldest young master and his family were sent to a distant place. The fifth master Wei was unable to make a decision for a while, and his hair turned gray with worry.

Old Ding sighed: "The family is unfortunate, and the brothers are jealous, which is just causing trouble."

The eldest young master is about forty years old, and he is almost the same age as the young master's mother.

The Fifth Master Wei only has two sons. As the eldest son, the eldest son was seduced by others and wanted to monopolize the entire mansion and family property. He did evil things such as colluding with outsiders and using evil methods to kill people. His reputation was ruined and his life was ruined. , and also hurt the younger generations.

He was worried about the fifth master's health, but he could not share his worries. He could only express a few complaints to Taoist Xu who had shared the difficulties with him.

Xu Yuanchang accompanied him to drink and eat meat, and paid no attention to the grievances of the wealthy families. He listened to what went in with one ear and out with the other.

Later, Xu Yuanchang was very interested when he heard Lao Ding tell some strange and interesting stories about the world.

We are full of wine and meat, and the sun is past noon.

In the name of exchanges and exchanges, Lao Ding taught Taoist Xu his fists, kicks, and body lifts.

Some tips and tricks require guidance from experienced warriors.

Xu Yuanchang learned very quickly. He had the foundation of magical power that Lao Ding did not possess. Furthermore, he had practiced breathing, fisting, and kicking since he was a child. He could move around easily and effortlessly with difficult body movements.

When Lao Ding saw that Taoist Xu was very quick at getting started, he made the most of his kindness and showed off his skills at the bottom of the box, teaching him everything he had.

He also taught Xu Yuanchang his proud knife-throwing skills and coordinated steps.

The sun was setting in the west, and Old Ding smiled and left.

Taoist Xu was not on the same level as him, and he was not worried about taking away his job. Moreover, he had a lot of money in hand, so he had no worries anymore and still stayed at Wei Wuye's house as a nurse to serve as a servant. It's to repay a favor.

Watching Master Ding disappear at the corner of the intersection, Xu Yuanchang returned to the yard and closed the door.

He took out a set of willow leaf flying knives given to him by Master Ding, and became familiar with the wrist stabbing, wrist turning, wrist flicking, and wrist shaking techniques, and used the flying knife skills with fixed steps, flying steps, spins, and other body movements.

Master Ding said that he had a good sense of accuracy and was talented in throwing knives. I don’t know if he was being complimentary or telling the truth?
On the wooden board erected against the wall a few feet away, large and small black circles were drawn with charcoal, and "duh" sounds could be heard from time to time.

The injury on his hand has completely recovered after two days of breathing exercises.

The master leads you in, and it requires long-term knife-throwing practice and understanding.

Only then can we achieve perfection and originality.

After seven days of this, Xu Yuanchang greeted his eldest brother in advance, and carrying the road guide certificate issued by the village, Tianma Liang came to Qingshi Town, hired a carriage, and headed southwest along the official road.

After a journey of one hundred and fifty miles, he was given enough copper coins and arrived at Qingping County on the same day.

After staying in an inn for a night's rest, Xu Yuanchang found the Yamen of Baijisi in the west of the city the next morning.

Show your name card to the sword-carrying warriors on both sides of the gate, state your intention, and receive instructions. You can bypass the carved animal wall through the small door and walk into the courtyard with its own cave.

Xu Yuanchang glanced at it, and saw corridors extending in all directions, and longing buildings hidden among the green ancient trees. There was no one around, and it was eerily quiet.

It gives people a mysterious and depressing feeling of a dense courtyard and majestic mountains.

Follow the corridor on the far right and walk about a hundred steps until you reach the building with the plaque "Sanrenyuan" hanging on it. This is the right place.

Xu Yuanchang walked into the dimly lit hall with the door open. It was empty, and there was no one behind the dark wood counter at the end. He coughed and asked, "Excuse me, is anyone here?"

A deep man's voice came from behind: "What's the matter?"

Xu Yuanchang turned around quickly.

At some point, a middle-aged man wearing a white official uniform stood behind him. He had a dull expression and was less than five steps away. He didn't notice any movement or sound, which was scary.

"Excuse me, I am from Shipan Village, Qingshi Town, and I am here to register as a casual cultivator."

Xu Yuanchang stepped aside so as not to block the other party's way. He took out the name card and handed it over with both hands.

The man took the name card, walked to the counter, checked Xu Yuanchang's road guide voucher, took out a booklet, and simply registered the words "Xu Yuanchang, Qingshi Town, Qingping County". There was no need for assessment and questioning, and he casually said: "Hundreds of people." There is still a quota for 'inspection envoy' in the Police Department, are you willing to take the position?"

Xu Yuanchang asked cautiously: "Excuse me, sir, what is the position of the inspector?"

The man clicked on the name card on the counter, "When did I give you the name card? I didn't tell you about it?"

Xu Yuanzhang said: "Master He never mentioned it."

He had a tender and young face, and pretended not to know the worldly ways of things. In fact, when he took the initiative to give him a name card, he must have other intentions. When he came to Baijisi, he should pay a visit to him first.

Sure enough, it has a different meaning.

But the patrol officer doesn't sound like a serious job.

The middle-aged man did not ask any more questions and simply explained: "The patrolman is also the eyes and ears. From now on, if you hang out among the casual cultivators, if you find that there is a major crime, or there are evil cultivators and ghosts in the secular world that harm the people, whether it is to punish If you want to kill evil spirits, you should report it to Baiji Division, and your merit will be counted. Depending on the amount of merit, rewards will be given. Normally, there is no monthly salary."

Xu Yuanchang understood clearly that this was the informant on TV, Erwuzi.

The kind who are often killed miserably by knife attacks.

"Thank you for your kindness, sir. I have little magic power and short knowledge. I am worried that my experience and ability are insufficient, and I will miss the tasks assigned by you..."

For such a tempting and good job, he was insensitive and demeaned himself.

Whoever wants it can take it and come to him.

The man sneered, as if he was mocking the boy opposite for his lack of appreciation. He took out a brown wooden sign from under the counter, picked up a brush, dipped ink and wrote a few words on the back of the wooden sign, and threw it out together with the road guide voucher.

Xu Yuanchang took the wooden sign and the voucher. The front of the sign was carved in the shape of a hall. There was a ferocious beast's mouth on the door. There was no inscription. The three words "Xu Yuanchang" were scrawled on the back. The pen was carved into the wood like a knife. This was his Sanxiu sign. ?

It’s also too casual.

He bowed and bowed, said, "I'm sorry to bother you, please excuse me," and hurried out the door.

He couldn't afford to offend the official monk's face, let alone look at him too much.

Originally, I still had a lot of questions and doubts, so I could only hold them back and wait to understand them later.

Walking out of the oppressive Baijisi, he slowly let out a breath of turbid air.

It was his first time to come to the county town, so he had nothing to do, so he took a stroll on the streets to get familiar with the scenery of the county town.

Walking out of the cold and wide stone flat, I blended in with the bustling people coming and going.

"Fellow Taoist, have mercy!"

A young Taoist priest came forward, wearing a sapphire blue and black-striped satin robe with low-key and luxurious decorations. He had a graceful demeanor and a smile as warm as the autumn sunshine. He raised his right hand and bowed to Xu Yuanchang.

……

　Thanks to two old friends "Zi Feng'er" and "Paradise Sniper" for their rewards and encouragement, Lao Yan, come on!
