The road to Jianghu started from the martial arts hall

Chapter 237: Secret Records of Soul Fusion

The night passed quickly, and when the sun rose, it cast a ray of light over the city of Jinling.

Fang Xun went out early in the morning and walked on the street.

He saw a group of yamen runners and constables hurriedly escorting one well-dressed gentry or official after another to the prison.

Among these officers, those in the innate realm were fine, but the acquired realm warriors all looked tired, as if they had not slept all night.

"Haha, it seems that the government office and the Six Gates have been busy all night."

The granary arson case was not complicated. The masterminds behind it were none other than some officials and wealthy people in the government office who pocketed the spiritual rice in the granary.

Even Fang Xun felt that it was a bit slow to wait until night to arrest people.

He walked leisurely towards the Liushenmen headquarters, and along the way he saw long queues in front of every rice shop.

It seemed that the people in the city were worried after seeing the government granary being burned yesterday, so they came to the rice shop early and rushed to buy food as soon as the shop opened.

Fang Xun shook his head in his heart. Only three spiritual rice warehouses were burned down yesterday, and other places were not affected.

If these people did this, it would only give the rice merchants in the city the opportunity to raise the price.

However, he believed that Dong Yunchuan was not just a figurehead. Although Fang Xun disliked this great scholar, he had to admit that he was a man of real talent and learning.

In this situation, if any rice dealer dares to take advantage of the opportunity to raise prices or hoard cookies, a group of people will inevitably be arrested and thrown into jail.

About a quarter of an hour later, Fang Xun arrived at the Six Gates. He saw detectives running around and the station was bustling with activity.

"Brother Fang, good morning."

Not long after, Fang Xun met Sun Youcai, greeted him, and asked curiously.

"Brother Sun, you guys haven't returned home all night?"

Sun Youcai nodded and said, "Yes, the commander-in-chief interrogated Ding Hui overnight yesterday and found that there was indeed something wrong.

He confessed everything. When Liu Xinyuan was in office, he conspired with Ding Hui and others to swallow up the spiritual rice, implicating a large number of people. I led the team to arrest them all in one night.

"Haha, these guys are really brave," Fang Xun sneered, "They even dare to pay attention to Lingmi"

Sun Youcai sighed at this time: "Brother Fang, if you ask me, you were too impulsive last night."

Fang Xun smiled and said, "Just treat it as a vacation, and we'll talk about it after a while. But even if I come back in the future, I will never work in Jiangzhou again."

"I envy Brother Fang for his leisure time. I am destined to be a hard worker. I feel uncomfortable when I am idle."

After chatting casually, Sun Youcai said.

"Brother Fang, you are here to see the Commander, right? She is in the study."

"Thank you, I won't bother you, Brother Sun."

After chatting with Sun Youcai for a few words, Fang Xun continued walking and soon saw Yu Jiaolong.

Yu Jiaolong also did not sleep all night, but she was in good spirits. Master Yin Shen had endless energy, and even if he stayed up for three nights in a row, he would not show any signs of fatigue on his face.

However, Yu Jiaolong's face did not look very good. Fang Xun couldn't help but complain in his heart after seeing this. He said that since he joined the Six Gates, he rarely saw this girl with a good face.

It was the Black Water Abyss that caused the trouble before. Now that it has finally calmed down for a while, the two troublesome guys Dong Yunchuan and Luo Gang have come to Jiangzhou again.

When Yu Jiaolong saw him coming, her expression looked better and she spoke.

"Fang Xun, you were just impulsive yesterday. Why don't you think about it again? After you leave, I won't be able to find a suitable person to take over for a while."

But Fang Xun said with a smile.

"Thank you for your kindness, sir. However, the Six Gates of Jiangzhou are full of talented people, and they don't need me anymore. I think Lord Liu is a suitable candidate. It just so happens that his spiritual power has been revived now. I estimate that he will be able to break through the divine will in a while." Yu Jiaolong sighed after hearing this. Knowing that the other party had made up his mind, she stopped persuading him and said.

“Well, you’ve just broken through to your divine will, and it’s a good opportunity for you to stay at home for a while to consolidate your power. If you’re interested in coming back, I can help you with the process.

Talents like you have already been remembered by the headquarters in Beijing. If you don’t want to serve in Jiangzhou, it’s not a big problem. There are many important and good jobs to choose from in the forty-six states of the Central Plains.”

Fang Xun did not refuse directly after hearing this, but thought for a while before answering: "If you are interested in the future, I would like to thank you for your recommendation."

Yu Jiaolong smiled and said, "It's just a simple thing, there's no need to thank me. But it's also thanks to you that Luo Gang didn't even have the face to come to the Six Gates today. I've sent a letter to the headquarters in the capital, and he won't be able to sit on the position of the Inspector for a few more days."

Fang Xun sneered in his heart after hearing this. What Luo Gang did was extremely taboo.

Although in theory the Inspector General is one level higher than the official he meets, the specific situation depends on the circumstances.

If it was an important official in the court who came to Jiangzhou as the Supervisory Commissioner, the Six Gates of Jiangzhou would have no choice but to obey.

But Luo Gang, an unofficial warrior who came from an academy, should just go to bed.

The Six Gates is the largest violent organ in Daxuan other than the army. It has its own system and is only responsible to the emperor.

Luo Gang wanted to directly intervene in the local Six Gates affairs without considering the feelings of the group of bigwigs and the emperor at the Six Gates headquarters in the capital.

This time, Fang Xun was not sure what kind of secret exchange of interests existed between the Academy of Scholars and the imperial court, which led to Dong Yunchuan coming to Jiangzhou to investigate the Ghost-Faced Man, but Luo Gang's behavior was clearly a taboo.

After Yu Jiaolong sent the letter to the capital, Luo Gang's hat as Inspector General would be taken off in at most half a month.

"Okay, let's not talk about that spoiler. Fang Xun, you can just go down and hand over the official business at hand. You can practice at home in peace these days. Dong Yunchuan and Luo Gang will not come to you for trouble again."

After Yu Jiaolong said a few words, she suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, and your achievements, you'd better redeem them all before you leave."

Fang Xun slapped his head when he heard this. He almost forgot that he had accumulated a lot of merits these days. He had to thank the group of good people in Heishuiyuan Sanyuetang for giving him heads.

"How many merits do I have?"

"Three major merits, several medium merits and several minor merits"

Fang Xun was also stunned after hearing this, as if he didn't expect there would be so many, but then he thought about it again.

The Six Gates were able to capture a large number of Sangetsu-do members, and at least 70% of the credit went to him.

Liu Xinyuan, the Sixth Hall Master, died because of him. He was also the one who exposed the Chunyang Mansion incident, and he also speculated the purpose of Heishuiyuan.
With all these things happening one by one, it is not surprising that so many achievements have been accumulated.

After a few more words, Fang Xun said goodbye to Yu Jiaolong and soon returned to the warehouse.

"Master Fang, here is the list, take your time to choose"

When the manager saw him coming, he immediately handed a thick booklet to Fang Xun.

Fang Xun flipped through the pages one by one, thinking in his heart what good things to exchange for.

He accumulated three more great merits, which could be exchanged for a set of almost-complete master skills. However, the martial arts hall produced too many secret manuals of divine skills, so he did not need to obtain them from the outside world for the time being.

"You can exchange for some elixirs and other cultivation resources, but the cultivation resources at the Divine Will level are extremely expensive, and you can't exchange for much with three great merits. Let's look for some other valuable things."

While Fang Xun was thinking, he was also browsing the items on the list.

There are martial arts secrets, elixirs, gold, silver and jewelry, and everything can be exchanged as long as you have merits.

Suddenly, after turning to a certain page, Xun stopped abruptly and looked at a book on cultivating psychic weapons.
