Chongyun Palace, selection room
There is a Selection Department in the Zhenguo Palace, and there is also a corresponding organization, the Selection Room, in the Yunxiao Sect's various state palaces.
After Yang Zhen came to Chongzhou, the first department she had to report to was the selection room of Chongyun Palace.
From Si Shi to Shen Shi, he had been waiting outside for three hours.
In the corridor outside the main hall, people walked around from time to time, looking curiously at the young man who was meditating with his eyes closed.
Since you want me to wait, I will sit here and practice to see who can outlast whom.
Yang Zhen felt very calm in her heart. Ever since he knew that the person in charge of the selection room was the pudgy monk who wanted to steal his battle glory that night, he had been mentally prepared for this.
Take out a middle-grade spirit stone and let the Qi sink into the Dantian. There is just a few traces of Chaos Qi left, which can run for several more weeks.
I don't know how long it took, but he felt that his meridians expanded slightly, and a disciple finally called him in.
After entering, the principal named Xianrong Ling had already left, obviously not wanting to meet him. A deacon named Jia took his token and letter of appointment. After checking them carefully, he quickly stamped them with a big seal and put a seal on the token.
In less than ten seconds, the formalities were completed.
Next, according to the traditional rules, the new owner needs to bid farewell to the palace owner and see if there is any explanation from his superiors.
Unsurprisingly, outside the hall where the Palace Master sat, a disciple came out to reply. The Palace Master was busy and disappeared this time. Take care of yourself, work hard, and don't let down the sect's expectations.
The deacon surnamed Jia had been accompanying her. Seeing that Yang Zhen was rejected, a hint of sarcasm appeared in the corner of his mouth.
At this point, the procedures at Chongyun Palace are completed, and then it is time to report to Wushan County.
Generally speaking, when a county director takes office, the state palace will send a deputy director from the selection room to show its importance. Sometimes, even the director himself will deign to accompany him there.
This is different from the mortal world. In the world of immortality, it is common to hold a position for decades. There may not be many such opportunities for allocating rooms throughout the year, so it is quite normal to increase the specifications appropriately.
Therefore, it is very rare for Yang Zhen to be accompanied by only one deacon this time.
What is a deacon? If Yang Zhen were in her previous life, she would probably be a clerk or clerk. Some have certain levels, but they usually do specific things and have no real power.
This specification is very low.
Deacon Jia led Yang Zhen, and the two of them walked towards the teleportation array one after the other.
"Junior Brother Yang," he said affectionately: "Junior Brother, you are not twenty this year, right? You are already the master of the hall at such a young age. Senior Brother is really envious, haha!"
"Well, I was in Qingzhou not long ago and assisted the sect in catching several bandits from Sangzhou."
"Sangzhou thieves? That's at least building a foundation, right?" Deacon Jia said in surprise.
"Yes. The main reason is that my senior sister has done meritorious service, and I am just attached to her." Yang Zhen responded lightly.
"Damn it, you're a qi-training monk who was born as a domestic slave, don't you just rely on taking advantage of others? This kid is so lucky!" Deacon Jia cursed in his heart, with envy in his eyes.
Being the owner of the hall is much better than being the deacon who is being shouted at all day long.
While talking, the two of them entered the teleportation array and soon arrived at Wushan County.
This is the benefit of having a teleportation array. In one day, you can go to countless places and travel hundreds of thousands of miles.
Yang Zhen used to travel between Yunzhou City and Shuyang County, and the teleportation array she took was located in Fang City. The one he took today was directly from Chongyun Palace to the interior of Wushan County Temple. He took the official passage and would only open it when there was official business.
Therefore, when the aura of the teleportation array lit up, Wushan County knew that someone was coming to the state palace, and a disciple immediately came forward to greet him.
This man was obviously a well-connected and well-rounded person. He recognized Deacon Jia immediately and said with surprise on his face:
"Senior Brother Jia, welcome! You are a rare visitor!"
"This person next to me is..."
"This is Junior Brother Yang Zhenyang, the new head of Wushui County. Please take me to see your Guanzhu Zhang." Deacon Jia said.
"It has been announced," the disciple said with a smile, "Senior Brother Jia is here. The master of the temple will definitely be overjoyed when he finds out."
This man has a sweet mouth. Deacon Jia is just an ordinary deacon in the state palace. He has been so praised that his face smiles like a flower.
Not long after, the three of them arrived at the Junguan Hall and saw a middle-aged man standing at the door with a smile on his face, followed by several people.
"Guanzhu Zhang!" Deacon Jia stepped forward quickly and said in shock: "Guanzhu Zhang personally comes to greet you, Jia really doesn't dare to do it!"
Wushan County looked at Zhang Mi, who looked to be in his forties, with a square face and long beard, and elegant temperament. He smiled and said:
"You deserve it. Junior Brother Jia is a rising star in our Chongyun Palace. He has always been valued by the Palace Master and Uncle Xian. Today, when I come to Biguan, how can I not sweep the couch to welcome me? Haha! Please!"
After saying that, he stretched out his hand to take Deacon Jia's arm and walked into the hall side by side with him.
The two parties sat down separately. Yang Zhen was still a guest at this time, sitting under Deacon Jia.
After some pleasantries, Deacon Jia explained his intention, and then Guanzhu Zhang turned his attention to Yang Zhen and praised:
"I, Wushan County, have already received the official letter from the palace, and have been looking forward to the main palace sending us a young and promising junior. When I saw him today, Junior Brother Yang has a dignified appearance, a restrained aura, and a solid foundation. He is indeed extraordinary, haha!"
Yang Zhen quickly stood up, cupped her hands, and greeted everyone else in the hall one by one.
In addition to the temple master, each county temple of Yunxiao Sect usually has a deputy temple master, as well as six departments including Jing'an, Duzhi, Yujin, Affairs, Xuanwei, and Jiaohua.
Now that the principal, deputy, and six principals are all present, it can be seen that Guanzhu Zhang did not neglect Deacon Jia because of his low position.
Among them, Yu Jinke is responsible for managing the Shanze Mine in this county, and his authority overlaps with that of Baoyuan Palace, so he accepts the dual leadership of Zhenguo Palace and Baoyuan Palace.
The head of Wushan County's Yujin Department is a beautiful woman in her thirties named Hong Yingxiu. When Yang Zhen was introduced to her, she couldn't help but take a closer look.
According to Zhao Yue'er, if she is sent here in half a year, she will most likely serve as the chief of the Yu Jin Section, that is, taking the place of the woman in front of her.
When Hong Yingxiu saw Yang Zhen staring at her, she puffed up her chest and gave him a wink. Yang Zhen quickly turned her head away, causing the woman to cover her mouth and snicker.
Everyone chatted casually about the Hanzhou Demon Clan, Qingzhou Bandits, etc., and did not mention the arrangements for Yang Zhen to go to Wushui County.
Yang Zhen was not in a hurry, sitting upright and only replied a few words when asked.
Just like that, at Youshi, Zhang Guanzhu twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Junior brother Jia has come all the way. You must taste my Wushan unique spiritual wine, otherwise, I won't let you go!"
"Haha!" Deacon Jia laughed out loud: "Senior Brother Zhang, you are too overbearing. Okay, Jia, please do as you please!"
So the crowd gathered the two people out of the main hall and came to a side hall, where two banquet tables had been set up and several people were standing and waiting.
"Those are the deputy positions in my temple." Guanzhu Zhang introduced: "Some of them were away on official business just now, and we will call them back now. Junior Brother Jia will give them a few words to encourage them later."
Deacon Jia was polite again and came to the banquet with Guanzhu Zhang.
Yang Zhen naturally followed behind.
Suddenly, he felt that Youdao's eyes were staring at him, and he couldn't help turning his head to look, and couldn't help but be stunned.
This is really like meeting an "old friend" in a foreign country, and actually meeting an acquaintance here!
