"This... is too expensive."
Although he was polite, Xu Tuzi put away Tian Yuan Dan and still had a smile on his face.
Huo Yirui smiled and waved his hand. For him, he could earn back this little money by killing two Snow Lotus people, so he didn't feel too bad about it.
"Okay, now that you guys have finished talking about your business, it's time for me to talk about it." Yan Xingjue suddenly interrupted and said to Jiang Yun, "Since you made the wood carvings, I have a few brothers and younger brothers here. You can help them measure them." Customize your body.”
"Okay, senior." Jiang Yun agreed hastily.
This is a big shot who is at least at the Golden Core stage! Jiang Yunba would not have to come back to this kind of good opportunity more than once.
Huo Yirui and Xu Tuzi looked at each other and smiled.
"Senior Huo, Senior Yan, I have a merciless request, which may be a bit abrupt." Xu Tuzi seemed to have something in mind and spoke, making everyone wonder what the other party wanted to say next.
Huo Yirui raised his hand to signal for permission to speak.
"It's like this. One of the two children in our family is currently at the Qi Fusion Realm, and the other has reached the Kanda Realm."
Xu Tuzi pointed at Jiang Yun and Huo Xiaoyu, and said with some embarrassment, "The two children followed us, but they couldn't find any good training opportunities, and they couldn't see the cruelty of the cultivation world. So I was thinking, can we let them They went into the underground network to hone their skills and see if the two seniors could give them a platform.”
Jiang Yun and Liu Yiyi became nervous at the same time, entering the underground network?
Why did the master just make up his mind without discussing it with us?
Especially Jiang Yun was a little excited and worried. He always wanted to find out the details of the incident at that time.
Although there is still awe and fear of the underground network personnel in my heart, if I can enter the underground network, I will definitely have a chance to find the case files from that year, and I will be able to know what happened at that time.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun couldn't help but have hope in his eyes.
etc!
Jiang Yun suddenly thought that there was a problem with his identity! His parents were guilty of colluding to rebel against the party, and he himself escaped from prison. If he was caught in this situation, the entire Tuyunju people would be implicated.
Going to the underground network so openly, what should I do if my identity is leaked?
Suddenly, he broke out in cold sweat, and with panic in his eyes, he wanted to step forward to remind Xu Tuzi.
Huo Yirui frowned and said, "It's not that we can't help with this, but the lowest level of the underground network is the Divine Soul Realm, and most of the law enforcement departments are all in the Foundation Establishment Realm. There will inevitably be danger after the two disciples enter... It's a pity that the City Lord's Mansion is I’m not familiar with this place, otherwise I could still..."
Arranging for two children to go in and practice. This situation is relatively common in the city lord's mansion and the underground network.
Strictly speaking, Diwang and Xuntianjian are more official sects and are not much stricter than other sects outside.
However, generally not everyone can let their children go into the underground network to experience, and these children will not be exposed to any core things after entering. At most, the procedure for becoming a full-time employee in the future will be simpler.
"That's the Law Enforcement Department you're talking about." Unexpectedly, Yan Xingjue suddenly interrupted and said, "I should be assigned a casual position at the headquarters of the Prefectural Court when I am transferred this time. My department does not have high requirements for strength, so I can arrange your assessment. Go in. If your strength improves and you want to transfer to the law enforcement department, things will get better. Xiaoyu will go anyway, and it will be more lively with three children."
Such a large network cannot be all members of the Law Enforcement Department. There is also a series of personnel from the Drug and Poison Department, the Document Department, the Secret Service Department, etc. In addition, there are also many staff members surrounding them.
For example, you can't ask the people from the Law Enforcement Department to go to the docket to move and manage files instead of going out to investigate and handle cases!
"That's a good relationship." Xu Tuzi was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted Jiang Yun and thanked them.
"You're welcome." Yan Xingjue stopped the two little guys from bowing to thank him, waved his hands and said casually, "I will familiarize myself with the position in the past two days, and then I will notify you to come for the assessment. Generally speaking, as long as there is no big problem with your identity, the assessment will not be done. It’s extremely difficult.”
What he said was very simple, but Jiang Yun on the side was not happy at all, and was so anxious that he almost shouted out.
Liu Yiyi noticed something was wrong with him at her side, held his hand and looked at him to signal to relax.
Unexpectedly, Xu Tuzi patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem with the identity information of these two children. After I adopted this brat, I have stayed with me in the store for almost three years now. The little girl is also a god of war." All the children from the villages near the city are clean."
Jiang Yun's eyes widened, as if he wanted to confirm that he heard correctly.
I have been adopted for almost three years? Haven't I only been here for less than a year?
"Okay, that's it. If the arrangements are made, I will notify you to go for the assessment." Yan Xingjue's voice was somewhat dull and magnetic, which did not match his skinny appearance.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Yan." Xu Tuzi bowed again and thanked him.
"It's okay, Xiaoyu, this girl, I watched her grow up, you save her life, this small favor is nothing."
After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, Huo Yirui and Huo Xiaoyu left.
. . .
"Master." Jiang Yun hurriedly stepped forward, "Once my identity is recognized,..."
Xu Tuzi looked at Jiang Yun who was hesitant to speak, smiled and waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.
He closed the door, took out a note from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Yun, and whispered, "When you were brought by the old drunkard, I had already arranged your identity information with a friend, so don't worry. It should be recorded in the file...that the boy from the Mo family accidentally died in prison."
"As for your face, at most one or two of the people who caught you will remember it, and it's impossible for others to remember it."
"This can be considered a test for you. If you can't handle this small scene, what do you expect to be able to do in the future?"
"Master...you..."
Jiang Yun's breathing quickened. He understood the meaning of his master's words. It was precisely because he understood that he felt shocked.
Fake things in the underground network.
This is by no means something that can be accomplished by an ordinary Foundation Establishment stage. You must know that the ground network is full of Foundation Establishment stage, and there are even many masters of the Golden Core stage! And in the Diting General Hospital, there are many Nascent Soul Stages sitting in charge!
"Then what do you mean by adoption..." Jiang Yun couldn't help but ask.
When Jiang Yun took the note from Xu Tuzi's hand, everything became clear. It clearly read:
Jiang Yun is from Wushen City.
His parents were locals of Wushen City and once opened a restaurant in Jingyu District. Two years ago, they both died of illness. Before his death, they entrusted the restaurant and their son to their friend Xu Tuzi.
"Or do you think the reason why the old drunkard asked you to call you Jiang Yun is because the child before I came here was about the same age as you, and his appearance was somewhat similar." Xu Tuzi said proudly.
"That is to say, your shop was formerly owned by Jiang Yun's parents, and there really was a person named Jiang Yun here. He was the real Jiang Yun. After the accident, I took his place." Jiang Yun unbelievably straightened out the logic, his tone full of disbelief.
Suddenly he came to his senses and asked, "What about others?"
"I introduced him to a master, and he went to learn the art from him." Xu Tuzi shrugged.
Jiang Yun stared at the unfamiliar Xu Tuzi in front of him in a daze. Only then did he truly realize that his master was not as simple as he seemed. How could this careless master manage his identity so secretly and without even realizing it?
"Master, do you know the reason why my family was arrested?" Jiang Yun asked excitedly.
There was a slight tremor in his words.
An inexplicable disaster struck from heaven, and his parents still don't know whether they are alive or dead. Jiang Yun lives in torment every day.
Unexpectedly, Xu Tuzi shook his head, "I haven't read the files. Sneaking into the prison and arranging a fake death for you has already used all my connections. As for the files, they are usually kept confidential. If you want to read it, work hard on your own. Let's make a name for ourselves in the Ditingyuan."
Arrange a fake me to die? Jiang Yun was stunned.
Xu Tuzi ignored his apprentice's shock and turned around and said, "Yiyi, you can discuss it with the old drunkard later. If he doesn't agree, don't spend money to buy wine for him. Going to Diwang is a good training opportunity, otherwise The two of you stay in the shop all day and lack of training, just like Jiang Yun's hands were shaking when he was intercepted, let alone resisted."
Jiang Yun lowered his head, knowing that his master's criticism was justified.
Liu Yiyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Asking the master not to drink would cost him half his life. She nodded in agreement, "Yes, uncle."
. . .
At dusk, Di Tingyuan.
"Head of the Records Department of the Diting General Hospital is in charge of all affairs of the Jingyu District Diting Branch." Huo Yirui clicked his tongue twice, "It seems that the superiors appreciate you very much."
"I'm also confused. I thought I could just take care of the Documents Department." Yan Xingjue didn't seem happy. "Now I have to take care of a branch. I can't even practice. The gap in strength between you and me is getting bigger and bigger in the future."
Whether it's the underground network or the patrol prison, many people want to go to the law enforcement department.
Because the Law Enforcement Department competes with experts from all walks of life, you can go out on your own when there is no mission. Other departments will be restricted and unable to go out for training. The experience between life and death is what masters of all walks of life long for.
On the ground nearby, Huo Xiaoyu was teasing the little wooden man.
Hearing this, she couldn't help but comfort her, "Uncle Yan, don't worry, my dad has reached the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul stage, and his strength is not improving as fast as before. You will definitely be able to catch up."
"Haha." Yan Xingjue smiled, his expression slightly sinister, and his voice was not pleasant. "Anyway, if you help me Xiaoyu, I can free up a lot of time to practice."
The Huo family and his daughter were used to his cold voice and facial expression, so they didn't find it strange.
"Xiaoyu, you go out to play first." Huo Yirui asked his daughter to go out first.
When Huo Xiaoyu and the wooden man with the ghost went out to play, the expressions of the two people in the house quickly became serious.
"By the way, who is the Xu Tu shopkeeper today?" Huo Yirui suddenly mentioned Xu Tuzi and said solemnly, "Although the fluctuation in strength is indeed in the foundation building period, I always feel that he is not simple. In front of us The groveling was a little too artificial."
In fact, when chatting with Xu Tuzi today, Huo Yirui felt that this old man in the foundation building stage gave him a vague sense of danger.
He is a dignified late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, but it is rare for a practitioner in the Foundation Establishment stage to feel this way.
"I went to check the files, and strangely enough, this Xu Tuzi has something to do with us." Yan Xingjue naturally understood what the other party was thinking. They were all elites from the Sky Patrol and Diwang. He had vaguely felt the same thing in the morning. As soon as he took office today, he went to check the files of Xu Tuzi and the two children.
"Oh?" Huo Yirui raised his eyebrows. Based on his memory at the Nascent Soul stage, if he had seen this person, he would have some impression.
"Before this Xu Tuzi..." Yan Xingjue said, giving it a try, glancing at Huo Yirui who was not in any hurry, and then continued boringly, "He is actually from Fengzheng City too!"
"There are more fun things."
Yan Xingjue seemed to have discovered something very interesting. His eyes widened and he said with a strange smile, "This Xu Tuzi was previously the leader of Fu Cang Sect, one of the top ten sects in Fengzheng City!"
"Fu Cangmen fell apart after failing to compete with Bai Zeyuan for the first sect in formation?"
After all, he had been in the Fengzheng City Patrol Prison for a long time. When he heard the name, Huo Yirui quickly thought of one of the ten sects of the year.
"That's this sect." Yan Xingjue seemed very satisfied with the shock that the news brought to his friends, and added, "At that time, Xu Tuzi disbanded the sect and left the practice world of Fengzheng City. Since then, he has not heard of this sect and this sect for at least ten years. I didn’t expect him to be hiding in Wushen City.”
"We were both new to the Tianxian Prison back then, so we were relatively unfamiliar with this person."
Huo Yirui frowned and expressed his doubts, "The heads of the ten sects should be at least at the Nascent Soul stage, but today Xu Tuzi's strength has fluctuated to reach the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. Could it be... that he was injured?"
As for hiding strength? Huo Yirui didn't think that a person in the Nascent Soul stage could completely hide his cultivation in front of him.
Even if it is the infant transformation stage above the Nascent Soul stage, Huo Yirui is confident that he can sense a trace of it.
"If it was an injury, it must be extremely serious, otherwise the level would not have fallen so seriously."
If Jiang Yun was eavesdropping outside the door at this time, he would be so shocked that his jaw would fall off. He thought he felt the master was very mysterious, but Xu Tuzi turned out to be even more mysterious than he guessed!
