Xiaoyu and others aside, although Yao Guanhai is a five-level master, there are some monsters that are difficult for martial artists below the peak of martial arts to deal with, but the rest, including the big monsters, he can also exert a power that cannot be underestimated.
Even if Mu Lanzhen's cultivation level is not clear, it is not too bad. With Mu Lanzhen in charge of the counties around Qingzhou Prefecture, everything should be worry-free.
Then there was no point for the cat-riding girl to stay in Mantang Mountain. Jiang Wang thought that she must be more capable than Yao Guanhai, so she could be a great help to him.
Mu Lanzhen thought for a moment and did not refuse.
The girl riding the cat can go down the mountain, so there is no reason to disagree.
Jiang Wang told Xiaoyu and the others before they parted ways.
At the peak of breaking through the snow, Jiang Wang can naturally maintain the power of the Kingdom of God for a longer time. Even if it does not take up to completely solving the problem, as long as the power dissipates normally, he can make it reappear soon. Thinking about the cat riding girl, It would not be the case that as soon as the power dissipates, you will be extremely unlucky to encounter a powerful enemy and fall into a desperate situation.
But Jiang Wang soon realized something was wrong.
What he meant, of course, was to fly out of Qingzhou Mansion as quickly as possible.
The cat-riding girl, who was already known to be named Tang Guo, was undoubtedly the daughter of Tang Tang. She could claim to be the master of Mantang Mountain without any scruples. This was of course no problem, but she was swept away by him in an instant.
Jiang Wang had to turn back.
Tang Guo showed a somewhat embarrassed expression, "Actually, I only have the cultivation level of Dongming Peak."
Jiang Wang couldn't hide his shock, "You are the daughter of Senior Tang. There are only five people in Mantang Mountain. How can you be so weak?!"
Tang Guo seemed a little dissatisfied, but he could only swallow his anger and said: "My qualifications are not good."
Jiang Wang scratched his head with a grimace.
He didn't blame Mu Lanzhen in his heart for not telling the truth. After all, who knew that his cultivation was time-limited, and aside from this, Mu Lanzhen couldn't have wanted to harm Tang Guo when he agreed to let Tang Guo go down the mountain.
So even if Tang Guo's cultivation level is low, he definitely has merit. At least Mu Lanzhen will think that Tang Guo can protect himself and can help him.
Thinking that she is Tang Tang's daughter after all, the trump card hidden in her body may be beyond imagination.
Jiang Wang didn't hesitate too much. Tang Guo hugged the shrunken Bai Lotus, while he grabbed Tang Guo's arm and escaped from Qingzhou Mansion in an instant.
The Qingzhou Prefecture County Examination is in full swing, and there are also some surrounding counties. However, Jiang Wang did not find monsters appearing on a large scale. His goal is very clear. In the mountains and fields outside the city that are 14,000 miles away from Mantang Mountain, the scale of monsters is different from other places. Very different.
The Longchan County Examination will last for a month. The more monsters you kill during the period, the better. Even at night, you cannot relax your vigilance. The monsters will naturally not wait to be killed and will fight back. Therefore, when recuperating at night, each The team will arrange for people to keep watch in shifts.
Although they can all be called competitors, no one is willing to risk their lives easily. After all, there are many monsters in the county examination area, and people will die during the period. The only thing prohibited in the rules is killing each other, so they cooperate in the early stage. essential.
Because there are only a few Longchan sects, most of the test takers come from the tutelary offices of various cities in the county. Newcomers with no training are tested in the nearby tutelary offices. Those who are the most outstanding in all aspects can wait. Heading to the capital of God.
They have the opportunity to stay in the city of gods and get better resources to train them. If they are not favored by the city of gods, they can directly get an official position in the county governor's house or join a sect to practice. .
Those who are not at the top but perform well can join the local garrison after the county examination, but they have to start as a junior official.
When the time came, the four members of the team were sleeping in the wilderness.
Three people rest and one person keeps watch.
During the county examination, they are not allowed to enter the city. It is easy to introduce monsters into the city, and each town is guarded by Qingxuan Department or sect monks. Although the number is small, if there is any accident, they can still resist it for a while. A strong person with spiritual practice will each focus on a certain range and be able to take action in time.
Among the four people, there were three men and one woman. The person keeping watch was a man who looked to be in his twenties. He held a sword in his arms and stared at the surroundings at all times. He was very competent.
But little do they know that there are countless monsters hiding in the mountains and wilderness.
Another man in green robe who was resting on a tree trunk slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at the man in black who was watching the night, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, seeming to be slightly disdainful, "It's time to change the night watch."
The man in black raised his eyebrows, but said nothing and went straight to sit next to the only woman.
Immediately after, I heard the man in green robe mockingly say "waste". The man in black's face froze, and then he showed an angry look. The woman next to him suddenly opened her eyes and said in her heart: "He is from Changsheng Sect, one of the three sects of Longchan." One, he is the strongest among us, so please bear with it."
The man in black nodded silently.
Among the three sects of Longchan, the first is Wutiao City, the second is Changming Sect, and Mantangshan is not among them.
So strictly speaking, there are four sects in Longchan.
Because Longchan is different from other realms, most of the monks are in the county guard or the government office, so in addition to Mantangshan and Wutiao City, which also has few disciples, the remaining two sects almost include the geniuses of Longchan, among which the most talented ones are The longevity sect is the most important.
Among the younger generation of the Changshou Sect, there are geniuses who have broken into the Snow Bathing Realm. Even if there are only two of them, there are many disciples who aspire to the peak of Dongming and have even reached the threshold of the Snow Bathing. The man in green robe is one of them. one.
The man and the woman in black came from the same government office, and the Changshou Sect was treated somewhat poorly by the Qingxuan Office. They were just the head catchers and assistants of the government office in a town, so how could they offend them.
What's more, it can't be beaten.
The man in black who works as a guard in the government office does his duty at night, while the man in green robe from Changshou Sect seems a bit lazy, but the advantage is that his perception is strong enough, and as long as there are no monsters approaching, even if he detects the evil spirit, he will not care. , I have killed a lot during the day, I have to stop and rest, there is no need to take the initiative again.
Jiang Wang took Tang Guo and hung in the sky, overlooking the mountains and fields.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured: "We are all old acquaintances with Zhuan Yong Aoyin. The strangest thing is that Zhuan Yong is actually very quiet and not directly reckless. It seems that a great demon with profound knowledge is suppressing them. All kinds of There are dozens of monsters, totaling about five hundred.”
"Except for the four people over there, there is only one team on the outside in the mountains here. How can it be worth sending so many monsters? What is the real purpose? The town is some distance away from here, and there are no villages in the mountains. There is something else that attracts them. they?"
Since there is a plan, the monster's actions are no longer just hunting around without any rules.
Just as Jiang Wang was about to make a move, he suddenly stopped.
"Where did it come from?" Tang Guo blinked. There was an extra person in the mountains for no reason, walking towards the four people who were recuperating.
Jiang Wang frowned and said: "There is no evil spirit, it seems to be a human being?"
Tang Guo said: "There is no demonic aura, but he has no cultivation, and he is not a martial artist. How can an ordinary person appear under the nose of this Lord Sword Immortal without any warning?"
It makes sense... Jiang Wang glanced sideways at Tang Guo, "Why did you become a sword fairy again?"
Tang Guo waved his hand and said, "That will happen sooner or later."
With mediocre qualifications, you are indeed expected to become a swordsman.
Jiang Wang curled his lips slightly and looked down at the mountains and fields below.
The man in green robe who was watching the night noticed it immediately. He held the sword in his hand and watched the approaching figure cautiously, but did not alert his companions.
"I am also a member of the county examination, but I was attacked by a demon at night and all my companions died tragically. I escaped by chance. I hope you can take me in. I am a hard-working person and I will definitely contribute to the team."
Seeing the polite and elegant figure opposite him in white clothes, the man in green robe narrowed his eyes and said, "A scholar?"
Yuyuan Academy was the highest institution in the Sui Dynasty. Those who could graduate directly entered the court or went to various places to benefit one side. Therefore, at least six out of ten people who guarded the government office were from Yuyuan Academy. Naturally, there was no need to participate in the Qiuyuan Academy. But if you are really interested, of course you won’t be turned away.
In the Sui Dynasty, apart from Yuyuan Academy, there were very few scholars who practiced spiritual practice.
In the final analysis, it is still a rupture in the Confucian inheritance. Of course, this means that monks who specialize in Confucianism and scholars can also pursue martial arts. Therefore, it cannot be directly concluded that they are from Yuyuan Academy just because they are scholars. It can only be said that most of them are like this. .
But the man in green robe did not immediately believe the scholar in white. If this person is a martial artist of the fourth realm or above, it is difficult to see through it at a glance, which is normal, but his aura is ordinary and nothing special. He is either really an ordinary person or just a pretender. The role of a pig eating a tiger.
What's more, if he is not weaker than him and has a high probability of coming from Yuyuan Academy, once he agrees, his status in the team will inevitably be affected, and the man in green robe will be extremely unhappy.
As if aware of the hostility of the man in green robe, the scholar in white showed an elegant and kind smile and said: "I am alone, facing the monsters. If there is a slight accident, I may die here. I am just asking for a place to stay. Look. Your Excellency has a dignified appearance and extraordinary demeanor, and I think you must be a gentle and gentle gentleman."
The green-robed man sneered, but his words came out with something else, "Your Excellency, although we are competitors, we are also people walking side by side. With you joining the team to help us, we will be invincible, no matter how many monsters we kill, It will be a fair fight in the future.”
The scholar in white smiled and said: "It's very true, your Excellency is truly an upright, elegant, and gentle gentleman."
The man in green robe clasped his hands and said, "I don't think so."
The scholar in white returned the greeting: "Well deserved."
Seeing this scene, Tang Guo's face was full of questions, "What's going on?"
Jiang Wang frowned and said: "The man in green robe was obviously very cautious in front of him, and even had a great sense of rejection. Why did he suddenly change his attitude after being praised for a few words? Did the scholar use some means in his words to influence the other party? ?But I didn’t notice any fluctuations in the breath.”
All in all, there were big problems with the conversation between the two.
Jiang Wang even suspected that it was Yan Chufa Sui. After all, he was a scholar. However, as we all know, the only person in the Sui Dynasty who understood Yan Chu Fa Sui was the Imperial Master. He was very surprised when Li Shenyuan appeared. How could he appear out of nowhere? one?
Moreover, the scholar in white did not say anything particularly pointed, which could make the man in green change his attitude instantly.
The man in black, who had just finished his night watch and had not completely fallen asleep, heard the noise and opened his eyes.
The attitude of the man in green robes changed again.
When introducing the scholar in white, he was very gentle and gentle.
But when introducing the man in black to the readers, he seemed extremely perfunctory, and even warned in his words not to get too close to that loser.
This undoubtedly made the man in black extremely angry.
The scholar in white clothes smiled and spoke, "Brother, you have good facial features and a righteous look in your eyes. The sword on your waist seems to be a weapon for fighting monsters in the garrison. I think you have been dealing with monsters all year round, saving people from water and fire, and you are full of contextual aura." You Yang must also be a polite gentleman who has read the books of sages thoroughly."
The man in black was speechless for a moment, and hurriedly clasped his hands in salute and said: "I am just a small-time assistant in the garrison, and I really don't dare to receive such praise from you."
The scholar in white said: "It's worthy."
The man in black said ashamedly: "I don't dare to take it seriously."
...Jiang Wang's face was full of shock. When he caught someone, he praised him so much that he couldn't get angry. Instead, he had a good impression of him. Could this be the rumored sophistication of people?
Some people died, but not completely...
