Evergreen Immortal.

Qingshui Riverside.

In a very grand mansion with rich doors and green tiles, a middle-aged man with a hooked nose and a cold face was sitting in the pavilion watching the water.

From time to time, a few bright red koi fish surfaced.

The middle-aged man played with this pebble, which was less than the size of a fingernail, and curled his fingers slightly.

Whoosh!

The stone flew out like a sharp arrow and accurately hit a koi in the water. The water in the pond rippled and soon the koi stopped moving.

Hurt people from a distance!

"Take it out and eat it tonight."

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the maid standing nearby was already surprised.

"yes."

At this moment, on the road through the attic, a disciple of the Heaven and Earth Alliance wearing Xuanyi hurriedly walked up, holding a directory in his hands.

"Master, this is the recommendation list for this month."

The middle-aged man picked up the list and glanced at it.

"Those who are qualified will be deacons, and the rest will be thrown into the field and stay there for a few years. We will talk about it after the assessment."

The Xuanyi disciple said: "Master, yesterday Deacon Wu recommended a top-grade martial artist. He has good martial arts skills and understands the rules of the world, but he is a bit old. His name is Li Rui."

"How old?"

"seventy."

"."

The middle-aged man flipped through it for a while, and sure enough he found Li Rui's name on the list.

"Now is the time to employ people. Let him go to Tianyitang. Maybe he can use some of his remaining energy."

"yes."

other end.

"The knife goes with you, the man and the knife become one!"

Li Rui's wooden stick flew, sweeping away pieces of green leaves, which fell all over the yard.

Although the house he rented from Yaxing was small, it had a rare small courtyard, and the willow trees on both sides grew very pleasantly in spring.

After leaving the Zhu family.

Without the worries of the world, his sword skills improved quickly.

I'm afraid those teachers in the city who specialize in teaching swordsmanship don't even dare to say that they can beat him.

"Everyone has to fight for the rest of his life."

Martial arts practitioners have nothing to fight for. They fight for their skills, their fame, and their money.

If you don't fight, you will be pushed away and eventually become a stepping stone for others.

Fortunately, Li Rui has a plug-in.

With his martial bones and the white ape wearing a sword, he has the capital to be indifferent to fame and fortune. As long as he finds a good job, most of the herbal medicine problems can be solved.

After practicing his sword, he just entered the house.

At this time——

Boom, boom, boom!

There was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

He opened the door and saw that it was Yang Yong.

Yang Yong looked at Li Rui anxiously: "Old Li Tou, have you ever been to that deserted temple outside the city?"

"yes."

Li Rui nodded, feeling nervous.

He didn't know why Yang Yong came to him to talk about this matter.

When Yang Yong heard this, he shouted: "Something happened. Today, Capt. Liu from the yamen came to Zhu's house. I happened to be there. He said that the captivity officer who went to the deserted temple was killed during this period." Seventy-seven or eighty-eight, I suspect that someone is deliberately targeting me, please be careful."

"As soon as I thought about it, you weren't going there that day, so I hurried over to tell you."

Li Rui frowned suddenly.

"Trouble!"

The murderous maniac rumored before was probably a disciple of the Huaqing Sect.

He took the secret method of the Huaqing Sect disciple. The other party was obviously unwilling to accept it and came specifically to seek revenge. Since he could not identify the target, he simply killed them one by one until he found the secret method.

"I understand, Lao Yang."

Yang Yong kindly reminded: "Old Li Tou, why don't you go hide in another county for a while."

Li Rui shook his head.

"You can't hide from it."

He knew very well the preciousness of the White Ape's sword. Unless he ran out of Yunzhou, the other party would definitely not let him go.

"What should we do?"

"I plan to go to the Heaven and Earth Alliance."

Yang Yong was shocked when he heard that Li Rui wanted to join the Heaven and Earth Alliance. Of course he had heard of the name of the Heaven and Earth Alliance.

"Anyone recommend it?"

"Um."

Seeing Li Rui nodding, Yang Yong felt relieved a little.

There are many masters of the Heaven and Earth Alliance. As long as they live in the Heaven and Earth Alliance's camp, it will not be easy for the murderous maniac to take action.

Those few detectives were also killed on their way home.

Not long after sending Yang Yong away, a bearded man wearing a black uniform of the Heaven and Earth Alliance walked outside the small courtyard.

Li Rui smiled, stepped forward and said, "Brother Wu."

Wu Tu entered the small courtyard and took out a brass token from his arms with the number "28" written on it.

"Brother, this is your token. The number on it corresponds to your identity. If it is lost, you must tell the people in the Tiandi Alliance's supply hall in time. Otherwise, if someone uses your token to do evil, you will also suffer. Punishment.”

Li Rui nodded and took the token from Wu Tu.

He was about to say thank you.

Then Wu Tu took out a piece of paper from his sleeve with many pictures and words on it.

Li Rui just glanced at the seal of "Wanbao Trading Company" on it and knew it was a banknote.

In ancient times, poor people mostly used copper plates, while rich people mostly used silver.

But sometimes the amount of money is too large and it is inconvenient to carry it with you, so you will deposit it in a business store and exchange it for a bank note. Not only is a thin piece of paper easy to carry, but the bank note has been specially treated to be not only waterproof but also fireproof.

Li Rui didn't understand what Wu Tu meant.

Wu Tu stared at him for a while, then suddenly shook his head and sighed: "Brother, my brother didn't help you handle things well, and I feel guilty. I will never dare to accept the money from this recommendation."

"What's the matter, Brother Wu?"

"The numbers on this token represent the status. The smaller the number, the higher the status. There are a total of 28 qualified warriors in the Qinghe Branch of the Heaven and Earth Alliance.

I originally thought that with my elder brother’s experience and skills, I could get at least twenty,

Unexpectedly."

As Wu Tu spoke, he raised his two fingers and swore: "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely fight for more benefits for you in the future."

Before he finished speaking, he thrust a silver note with one hundred taels written on it into Li Rui's hand.

The token is made of brass, with the two characters "Heaven and Earth" displayed using Yang carving technology, surrounded by a red texture, which looks gorgeous and grand.

"Brother, with this token, you will be the leader of Tianyi Hall."

"Tianyi Hall is responsible for guarding the exercises and other miscellaneous books on the helm. It is only responsible for guarding. The matter of distributing the exercises is handled by the Chuanfa Hall."

"This job is very relaxing."

Wu Tu held it in for a long time, but he really couldn't find any advantages in Tianyitang. In the end, he could only mention one advantage that was not considered an advantage in the eyes of a warrior.

He actually really wanted to find a good job for Li Rui.

Even though he is a ruthless person, if he meets someone he likes and recognizes, he will also think about that person from the bottom of his heart, otherwise he would not be able to sit at the top of the Rong family.

After getting along with each other several times, he felt that Li Rui, apart from being older, had neither martial arts skills nor personality to choose from.

Li Rui was stunned.

The leader of Tianyi Hall, to put it another way, he is not a librarian.

He looked at the one hundred taels of silver notes in his hand.

Now that you have money, you can also have leisure.

Is there such a good thing in this world? ! !
