Evergreen Immortal.

In Qinghe City.

Magistrate Zhang was already waiting at the gate.

In addition to him, the county magistrate, chief clerk, and registrar of Qinghe County Office, as well as some famous people in the city, were all present.

They arrived at the gate early in the sun.

Seeing Hua Qingzong's carriage slowly approaching, the guards at the gate received instructions and let it pass in advance.

Magistrate Zhang took two steps at a time and walked forward.

The rest of the people also gathered.

"Everyone, thank you for your hard work. Your humble servant Zhang Linkang greets Elder Jiang."

Before he finished speaking.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted.

However, the only person who got off the carriage was Jiang Yan, who I met last time, and there was no sign of Jiang Linxian.

"This"

Magistrate Zhang paused, his waist originally bent halfway.

He didn't understand what was going on for a moment.

If Jiang Linxian didn't come, such a big show would be in vain.

Han Qin, who had dismounted, quickly explained: "Master Zhang, Elder Jiang originally came with us, but he had something to do on the way. He will be back when the competition starts."

"I see."

Zhang Zhixian smiled awkwardly.

However, such a bohemian style is in line with Jiang Linxian's elusive style.

It is normal for a big shot to have some quirks.

Han Qin added: "Junior Sister Jiang is the deputy envoy this time. Junior Sister will be in charge of the competition for the time being."

"Miss Jiang, long time no see."

Zhang Zhixian heard that Jiang Yan was the deputy envoy this time.

He also walked up happily.

Jiang Yan is Jiang Linxian's only daughter, and her identity is naturally beyond doubt, but the reason why Zhang Zhixian values ​​her so much is because of this position.

The Yu Kingdom has ruled the Red County Shenzhou for thousands of years.

It is far from enough to rely on the power of local governments alone, so they often unite the martial arts sects. For thousands of years, the court and the martial arts have been mixed and inseparable.

Huaqing Sect recruits disciples to select martial arts talents for the court.

It is another important way to select officials besides the imperial examination.

There are many masters of Huaqing Sect who later became high-ranking officials in the court. Therefore, the entrance competition of Huaqing Sect is also an annual major event of Qinghe County Government.

"Everyone, please follow me to the government office to rest."

The reception in the officialdom is very particular.

Before, Jiang Yan and others lived in Zhu's house. On the one hand, Zhu Yue was there, and on the other hand, it was not a public matter, so the county government would not arrange it.

But this time is different. Not to mention that Jiang Linxian came in person, the entrance competition alone is enough to make the government pay attention.

So even if Zhu Yue came, he would definitely not go to Zhu's house again.

For lower-level officials, of course, they were all thrown to the post station outside the city without a doubt.

But if you meet a higher-level official or an important person, you have to ring the gong to clear the way, and a large group of people will follow and escort.

Officials, celebrities and gentlemen in the city would first go to the reception pavilion to wait for the reception. They would often stay overnight in the reception pavilion. There would certainly be no shortage of entertainment activities. The superiors would come to the county government office only when they had fun.

Then they would settle down in the courtyard specially set up in the county government office.

There is a lot of knowledge in this.

County Magistrate Zhang wanted to curry favor with Elder Jiang, who was known as the Jiangdong Sword Immortal, but unfortunately Jiang Linxian didn't like this, so the most important step of the reception pavilion was omitted.

Everyone from Huaqing Sect lived in the county government office.

Han Qin couldn't wait to go out.

He happened to run into Jiang Yan.

"Brother Han, are you going out?"

Han Qin nodded generously: "Well, I have gained something recently, so I just went to ask Senior Li of the Tiandi League for advice."

"Li Rui?"

Jiang Yan pondered: "Brother Han, can I go with you?"

"Yes."

Han Qin was stunned, and then agreed.

Anyway, there were still a few days before the entrance competition, so the two of them left the county government office together.

Two unusual guests came to Tianyi Hall.

Li Rui, who was flipping through a book, asked Yang Deliu to invite Han Qin and Jiang Yan in when he heard that they were visiting him.

"Friend Han, Miss Jiang, long time no see."

He smiled happily.

He had just heard the news of the entrance competition of Huaqing Sect, but he didn't expect that she would appear in front of him in a lively and pretty way.

Han Qin was a little embarrassed: "Senior Li, my swordsmanship is good."

He was only halfway through his words.

Jiang Yan narrowed her eyes and said hesitantly: "Senior, you. broke through?"

Breakthrough?

Han Qin was also stunned.

Then he looked at Li Rui and rubbed his eyes doubting his life.

"What the hell, a seventy-year-old can break through two levels in one year!!"

Han Qin confirmed.

Li Rui has broken through to the eighth level.

"The disciples of the big sect are really extraordinary. They can really see my realm."

Li Rui's heart trembled.

Fortunately, he had already exposed part of his strength in advance.

"It was just luck."

Han Qin's expression quickly changed from shock to regret: "Senior Li, it's a pity that the previous years were buried, otherwise with the talent of the senior, you would have achieved something."

He really felt sorry for Li Rui.

But this is the normal state of life.

There are too many buried geniuses in the world.

"I'm so lucky."

Han Qin thought to himself, if he hadn't been born in a good family and was valued by his master, he would have lived his whole life in a muddle.

It's really hard to judge the circumstances of life.

He also understood why the man called Li Rui the helmsman before.

Compared to Han Qin.

Jiang Yan was more shocked.

"The fate. Changed?!"

She looked at Li Rui in disbelief. It was the first time she had seen such a change in fate in such a short time.

It's still the ninth day of the first lunar month, the latent dragon should not be used.

The overall fate has not changed.

Seventy years old, eighth grade, still a hidden dragon, this kind of strange situation is rare enough.

The key is that there is a sign of a dragon raising its head.

From the perspective of Jiang Yan's life eye.

A green dragon is entwined around Li Rui, and the dragon head that was originally drooping is slightly raised compared to before, as if trying to look up at something.

"No solution."

Jiang Yan frowned even more tightly.

This is the first time she has seen such a situation.

"Strange, strange."

Han Qin was concentrating on asking for advice on swordsmanship, and did not notice Jiang Yan's changes at all.

He couldn't wait: "Senior, I first decomposed the knife and sword according to what you said, but I encountered a lot of confusion, such as this sword, a hundred people and a hundred swords, how can one move break all the swords in the world?"

Li Rui smiled slightly: It is not the sword itself that breaks all the swords in the world, but the person holding the sword. If you want to break the sword, it is not enough to practice the sword, you need to fight, a lot of fights. "

Han Qin's eyes lit up.

Sure enough, he found the right person.

He blurted out all his questions.

Li Rui answered them one by one.

This was all thanks to the fact that Li Rui had read enough books in Tianyi Hall, and also because he had a high level of understanding and could integrate everything.

He is a master of theory.

Even Jiang Yan, who was standing by, was fascinated.

Li Rui intentionally or unintentionally turned the topic to the Qi map: "It is said that someone has gathered the Qi of a hundred weapons and become the master of a hundred weapons. Maybe this is another way."

Han Qin nodded slightly: "It is indeed a way."

Li Rui was stunned.

He just said it casually, but is there really someone who can do it?
