Before Luo Huaizhu sat down, the sound in the hall was enthusiastic.
After she sat down, everyone's voices seemed to be cut off by invisible hands.
The air suddenly became silent, and the young people stood frozen in place, or looked stunned or confused.
what happened?
Why is Senior Sister Luo Huaizhu, number one on the heavenly list and known as the "Taoist Idiot", sitting next to Ji Ping'an?
And also sent him a smile?
Is this still the ethereal, cold and aloof demon king they remembered?
Jian Zhuang was stunned for a moment, his beckoning hand stayed in mid-air, neither lifting it up nor putting it down.
With sharp eyes, the second-ranked Wang Xian frowned, seemingly puzzled.
Lin Qin, who had soft eyes and was already very curious about him, had a look of surprise in his eyes, which soon turned into complicated.
Zhao Xinghuo shook his hand, and the fireball was annihilated with a "pop". The tall and thin young man was stunned.
"Shi Hao", whose name resembled that of a protagonist, also sat up straight and looked at Ji Ping'an with a more serious look.
A thought came to everyone's mind at the same time:
They know each other!
But... how do these two people who are so incompatible with each other know each other in private? And they seem to have a good relationship?
"Luo... Luo..."
Mu Yaoyao, who was wearing a lotus leaf-colored skirt and her hair tied in a ring bun at the back of her head, widened her eyes. She didn't understand what was going on. She wanted to ask, but she felt it was inappropriate so she forced herself to endure it.
When he saw the reactions of the other star officials, they immediately raised their eyebrows and proudly stood up to face each other.
Ji Ping'an was a little helpless: "Why are you sitting here?"
Luo Huaizhu was stunned for a moment, tilted his head and thought for three breaths: "Isn't it possible?"
Ji Ping'an sighed: "That's it."
At this time, a figure wearing a black official robe walked into Liangyi Hall, which also broke the solid atmosphere.
It's Pei Sili, an old acquaintance.
There was a list of names rolled under his arm. They were the teachers of the special training class. He was also slightly surprised when he saw the trio who were out of tune with the larger circle and sitting huddled in the corner.
He immediately looked away, coughed and said, "Everyone is here, please call your name."
A famous star official calmed down his appearance, sat upright, and quickly adjusted his mood. However, his plan to exclude Ji Ping'an seemed to have failed.
I thought that I could squeeze this newcomer out of the circle, but it turned out that the circle was larger and more advanced... Even though there was only Luo Huaizhu.
But whether the network is strong or not has nothing to do with the number of people.
After the roll call was over, Pei Sili looked around at everyone:
"I won't say any unnecessary nonsense. Those who can sit here are all the best among the young Sichen from each academy. Each 'course' in the special training class is different, but they remain the same. They are all gods. All are rewarded for paving the way.
“The Grand Prize in the City of Gods not only examines martial arts skills in schools, but also places great emphasis on the brain… After all, what truly distinguishes humans from birds and beasts is the wisdom of the mind.
"Therefore, the students here, regardless of their level of cultivation, or their scores on the Heavenly Ranking, are not the basis for participating in the Grand Prize. In the past, there were also many examples of students with lower cultivation levels who were selected because of their extraordinary intelligence."
As soon as he finished speaking, many star officials with poor rankings on the Heavenly List puffed up their chests and had firm eyes.
Pei Sili nodded with satisfaction, rolled up the list and said, "According to the rules, the first lesson of the special training class is not in the prison, but in the city of Shendu. We will set off now."
…
Half an hour later.
A group of sixteen star officials changed out of their iconic robes and arrived at the government office wearing only ordinary clothes by car, and saw the chief executive officer of the government office in the inner courtyard.
The latter held a stack of paper in his hand, distributed it, and said in a deep voice:
"What you are holding in your hands is a file. It is also the task content of this special training."
Special training is a type of experience, and for ordinary practitioners to experience, except for practicing hard in the inaccessible and dangerous forbidden places in Kyushu.
The most common thing is to travel to various places and ask the government if there are any bad guys in the local area who are causing trouble and eradicate them.
The content of special training is no exception. Shendu City has a population of one million, and there are many cases involving practitioners.
The government office is happy for Qin Tianjian to help solve the problem.
Ji Ping'an opened the file and glanced at it. The case was very simple: two days ago, an official of the DPRK died unexpectedly. After an autopsy, he found that the cause of death was strange, not like man-made, but more like a demon clan causing chaos.
After Daomen rushed there, he failed to ask the spirit because the person had been dead for too long, and only some clues were found and recorded in the file.
Pei Sili stood aside with his hands behind his back and said calmly:
"The warden has determined through astrology that the murderer is still hiding in the city of God. Your task is to catch the murderer as soon as possible. The file provides some information about the suspect for three days. If there is no progress after three days, the task will be changed or the task will be changed. Si Li will intervene and if there is progress, it can be postponed appropriately..."
He explained the rules and finally added:
"This mission is to test your brains. If there is a conflict, it will involve cultivation and force. Each hospital will be divided into groups and report progress daily. The five supervisors will evaluate everyone's performance and involve subsequent resource allocation. Okay, If there is no objection, we will start now.”
As soon as the words fell, a group of star officials were shocked. They felt it was difficult and eager to try, hoping to win the first place in this unique competition.
Immediately, four Jinyuan Star Officers headed by Wang Xian walked aside, chatted in low voices for a while, and at the same time took out the astrolabe for divination, and then left excitedly.
Upon seeing this, the other branch teams did not dare to delay. They obtained key information from the files, condensed them into "astrology" sentences, and used magic to obtain the direction of investigation.
Then left in a hurry.
It seems as if they are afraid that if they move too slowly, other teams will finish first.
…
The gate of the government office.
Ji Ping'an and the other three stood beside the majestic stone lion, not as anxious as the others.
"Why are you following me?" He looked at Luo Huaizhu funny.
The latter thought for a while and said: "These things are too troublesome, I don't know how to do them."
She felt that the content of this special training was too complicated, and it would be better to simply go straight to the enemy when you see it.
Mu Yaoyao blinked her eyes and said with a smile, "Then come with us."
She is cunning, Ji Ping'an has the brains, and Luo Huaizhu has the strength. They are perfect. Anyway, no matter how Luo Huaizhu performs, she will have plenty of resources, so it would be better to bring her over as a foreign aid.
As she spoke, she took out her astrolabe from the bag on her waist, frowned as she read the file, and said with a sad face, "How should I do divination?"
Astrology is very complex, and with their level of cultivation, they cannot directly divine the location of the murderer. They must obtain clues indirectly by changing the divination sentences.
Taking the capture of Black Wind Fiend as an example, if you divine him directly, the result may not be accurate.
But if the divination content is changed to "Will I encounter a black wind evil when I walk north?"...it involves oneself, the accuracy will be higher, and so on.
Therefore, for this group of star officials, who have the highest level of breaking three and the lowest level of nourishing energy, how to refine divination sentences, form a strict logical chain, and find clues bit by bit is the test content.
Instead of really asking them to learn how to solve crimes quickly.
Luo Huaizhu said nothing, turned to look at the young man beside him, and then froze for a moment.
I saw that Ji Ping'an had closed his eyes at some point and was silently running the Dayan Secret Art in his heart.
Above the heads of several people, in the clear blue sky, seven stars separated by countless miles exude eternal brilliance.
Flashing pictures suddenly appeared in Ji Ping'an's mind. They were blurry at first, then clear, and finally settled on a portrait:
It was a teahouse with ivy-covered exterior walls. A face that matched the portrait on the file stared at him, with a ferocious smile, and then fiercely drew out a sword.
"boom!"
In my mind, the knife stabbed into the center of the picture, bursting open spiderweb-like cracks. This picture of the future was shattered like a mirror.
Ji Ping'an opened his eyes suddenly, and the star map in his pupils slowly rotated, and he couldn't help but frown.
In his divination, at some point in the near future, the murderer will appear in front of him, and... it seems that he came specifically to find him.
Things seemed... interesting.
Ji Ping'an let out a deep breath, looked at the two girls beside him, one naive and the other stupid, with a bright smile: "Do you know where there are ivy growing outside the teahouse?"
…
