"Lu Jing, Xia Huai, passed the sixth question!"
As a teacher's voice sounded, Lu Jing also passed the sixth question in a daze.
Anyway, he followed Xia Huai throughout the whole question and did nothing. He only used it as a salted fish pendant to wave the flag for Dalao.
The girl showed great power all the way and defeated nine spells in a row. During this period, she also used a pen to complete two talismans, repaired and activated a formation, and finally successfully resisted the enemy and passed the level smoothly.
This was something that the two of them should have done together, but she managed it all by herself.
It was only then that Lu Jing discovered that Xia Huai had mastered no less than ten spells silently, and was also quite familiar with the formations and talismans. However, she was the only two newcomers in this class who had not yet mastered it. A newcomer to foundation building.
As for the remaining one, of course it was Lu Jing himself.
However, unlike Lu Jing who has been standing still, although the girl is more than a month behind the other students, her cultivation speed is frighteningly fast, which makes several instructors who teach her secret powers, including Professor Zheng, look on with dismay. Guang has even begun to steal disciples secretly.
Without further ado, after the two passed the test, the instructor handed a volume of books to Lu Jing and Xia Huai each, and said, "The last question is to investigate the case. Si Tianjian received a secret report some time ago. Among the people in the capital, Something strange happens.
"However, in recent times, due to too many cases, the supervisors have been unable to take action. The department has also done some basic investigations and initially concluded that the threat this time should be very low. At least so far, no lives have been lost. .
"Therefore, Young Supervisor Guo decided to leave this matter to you to resolve. As the last question in this competition, it is also the most important question.
"Investigate carefully. Whoever completes this case first will be the first place in this competition. There are no restrictions on means, but you know the rules. You cannot reveal your identity to outsiders. Unless it is absolutely necessary, you cannot let ordinary people know. You know magic."
"What if they don't know it's a spell?" Xia Huai asked.
"That's no problem." The instructor nodded, "Spells are meant to be used. We just don't want ordinary people to know the existence of the secret power and cause unnecessary chaos in the world. In addition..."
The instructor paused and said, "Although the threat assessment in the case department this time is only inferior, and it has not yet been determined whether there is something mysterious at work, you'd better not take it lightly. Danger will never be warned in advance before it comes. .
"It's not like there are no similar precedents in the agency. A case that seemed to have little threat and was only a low-grade case was eventually upgraded to a top-grade case as the investigation deepened. That incident ultimately cost Si Tianjian a lot. Supervision..."
Seeing that Lu Jing and Xia Huai's expressions gradually became serious, the teacher smiled again.
"Don't be too nervous. I'm just telling you this to remind you. Generally speaking, it may take hundreds of years to encounter such a bizarre case. Most of the time, the threat assessment within the agency is still very accurate. .
"After all, Si Tianjian is very cautious in this matter. Everything you need to know about this case has been recorded in the case file. In short, I wish you good luck."
After the instructor finished speaking, Lu Jing and Xia Huai each found a quiet place and began to look through the files in their hands.
This is indeed a seemingly small case. Even Lu Jing doesn't know if it can be called a case.
Because if it is submitted to the government, the officials will probably think that the person who comes to report to the government is sick.
The cause of the matter is this. A villager named Li Er in Lijia Village in the western suburbs of Beijing raised a cow. He relied on the cow to till his land very fertile. His crops grew better than those of other families, and he sold them for more money. , he would sometimes drive his cattle to plow other people's fields and earn some extra money.
For this reason, he built a new house and married a daughter-in-law, so the cow was very important to him. He always cherished the cow and called it brother cow. He fed the cow well and sometimes even Sleep with Brother Niu.
As a result, he woke up one morning and found that the cow was missing. He was very anxious and went out to look for it. After searching for three days, he still couldn't find his precious cow. However, he later found a cow outside the backyard of Butcher Zhang's house. A pair of horns.
Li Ercong recognized that the pair of horns were from his own cow, so he hugged the pair of horns and cried loudly.
This alarmed the nearby villagers and gathered around them. When they found out what happened, they knocked on Butcher Zhang’s door. However, Butcher Zhang said that he had not killed any cows during this time.
When Li Er took out the horns, he had to change his story and said that although he had killed the cow, it was not Li Er's cow, and he refused to pay Li Er life or death for the cow.
So Li Er was furious and went to the government to sue Butcher Zhang. However, when the court opened, his wife came in panic and said that the cow was back again.
Li Er didn't believe it. After all, he had a deep relationship with the cow, and the pair of horns were definitely unmistakable. However, he went home and took another look, and was dumbfounded.
He found that the grazer at home was the cow he had lost for three days, and the horns on the cow's head were still there.
In the end, Li Er received ten sticks for reporting to the official, and the matter fell into disuse and became only a joke among the villagers.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, a Miao member from a neighboring village also came to the official in a panic, saying that his newly bought fighting cock had been eaten. The officer asked the Miao member who had eaten his chicken.
The Miao member was hesitant and said that it was too dark at night to see clearly. Later, when he was asked anxiously, he said it was a fox, and it was such a big fox. However, no one had ever seen a fox near Lijia Village, and the courtyard wall of the Miao member's house was It's also very high, and it doesn't look like a fox can climb over it.
Naturally, the guards didn't believe it, so in the end Miao Yuanwai could only tell the truth, saying that he met a begging woman on the road. When he saw that the woman was pretty, he had evil thoughts in his heart, so he deceived her into his home.
He asked the maid to give the woman a bath, change her clothes, and planned to have a wedding in the evening while the heat was hot. However, she didn't expect that at night, when the moon rose, the Miao member drank some wine outside and happily opened the door, only to see a man. The chicken feathers and blood were lying on the ground, and the bride still had the neck of the fighting cock in her mouth.
Seeing this scene, Miao Yuanwai shivered with his little brother on the spot, and sat down on the ground in fright. When the woman saw him coming, she picked up the fighting cock, jumped out of the window with a slight jump, There are nine fluffy white tails trailing behind him.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to look back at Miao Yuanwai, as if to thank him for his hospitality. Miao Yuanwai also rolled his eyes very proudly and fainted from fright.
