Early the next morning, there was a teahouse at the southeast corner of Taohuafang.
At this moment, the teahouse has been requisitioned.
There were two long queues at the door, with men in brown clothes lining up to register.
More than twenty soldiers wearing black attire and brown leather armor patrolled back and forth to maintain order.
Even though he kept shouting for silence, he still couldn't stop the noise.
Chen Mu is now 1.8 meters tall and has a fleshy face.
Wearing a gray suit and black leather wristbands on his wrists, his hair was tied back into a ponytail. Walking towards the teahouse with a scurrying pace.
The two soldiers maintaining order at the door saw Chen Mu's image.
Knowing that there was a high probability that he was a martial artist, he immediately moved out of the way and invited Chen Mu to enter the teahouse.
…
In the teahouse, there is a row of long tables at the entrance of the hall on the first floor.
Five or six scholars sat behind a long table to register.
Chen Mu was led to the center of the lobby by the soldiers.
There was a separate long table there, and an old man with a goatee was sitting lazily behind the table drinking tea. There was also a middle-aged man who looked like a government clerk standing next to him.
Seeing Chen Mu, he asked casually: "What's your name? Where do you live?"
"Chen Mu, my home is in Taohuafang, the third house on Dingyou Street." Chen Mu quietly adjusted his throat muscles to make his voice rough and loud.
"What skills are there?" the old man with the goatee continued to ask.
"Kestrel training technique to change bones." Chen Mu said simply.
Goatee raised his eyebrows: "You're quite capable!"
Another round of cross-examination followed. Including ancestral home, when they came to Nanyang, daily interpersonal relationships, etc.
The middle-aged scribe next to him immediately took out a pile of files to check.
Chen Mu even saw a deed stamped with a red seal, which was a copy of the deed when he rented the house.
Fortunately, he was prepared before he came and answered the cross-examination fluently.
The expression on the old man's face became more and more happy: "Let's go to the backyard with me to test."
Chen Mu nodded calmly and followed the old man into the backyard.
…
Under the eaves in the courtyard, a muscular man with a height of 1.8 meters was sitting in the shade drinking tea.
The opponent was dressed in black attire, brown leather armor, a jade belt around his waist, black boots, and a long sword leaning against the shorter man.
Chen Mugang walked into the courtyard and couldn't help but pause in his steps.
He had seen this man before. On the night his new neighbor moved, this man was there moving wooden boxes.
"That neighbor must also be from King Chao Tianwang."
"Fortunately I run fast!"
"Master Jia San, here comes a good man." Goatee nodded and bowed flatteringly.
"Go and try." Mr. Jia did not get up, but tapped the six huge stone balls in the yard with his chin: "Pick them up and walk around."
Chen Mu calmed down and came to the stone ball as if nothing had happened.
I easily picked up the first stone ball and walked around the yard which was about ten meters long and wide.
Then he picked up the second one and continued walking, his face still relaxed.
By the third time, my breathing became a little faster.
Then he gritted his teeth and picked up the fourth one, suppressing his face to turn red, but he still managed to complete a circle.
I tried the fifth one. I could lift it off the ground, but couldn't walk. I immediately shook my head and gave up.
"Yi Guzhong, yes." Jia Sanye nodded with satisfaction: "Old Ding, take him to the inner city to receive the reward."
…
The inner city of Nanyang Prefecture.
This was Chen Mu's first time in the inner city.
Sitting on the carriage, I couldn't help but lift the curtains and look out through the window.
The road is flat, paved with bluestone, spacious and clean, and can accommodate five or six carriages traveling at the same time.
The surrounding buildings are gorgeous and beautiful. As far as the eye can see, they are all white walls and blue tiles, and deep courtyards.
It's a pity that now it doesn't have the luxury and elegance of the past. On both sides of the street and in the courtyards of wealthy families, there were noisy soldiers everywhere.
The inner city became the military camp of King Chao Tian.
The original residents have long been devoured by ghosts.
Chen Mu couldn't help but feel his hair standing on end.
After touching the Zuming Talisman in his arms, he felt a little at ease.
"King Chao Tian..." Chen Mu's face couldn't help but darken.
If it hadn't been for him, he wouldn't have been forced to run away.
Now I can’t even eat properly!
…
The two came to the prefect's Yamen, which has become the residence of King Chao Tian.
Inside the Yamen warehouse.
A fat middle-aged man was calculating accounts with an abacus. While recording, he asked calmly: "Where does this person come from?"
Old Man Ding bent down and said with a smile: "A ruthless man and an outsider can easily be judged by his bones."
The obese middle-aged man curled his lips and said, "Just follow the old rules."
"Just give him five hundred taels."
Old Man Ding hesitated: "Is it too harsh?"
The obese middle-aged man sneered: "A little Yi Gu. With King Chao Tianwang here, what kind of trouble can he make?"
"King Chao Tian wants money wherever he goes to recruit troops."
"These Jianghu people are unruly and unruly. No matter how much money you give them, you can't make them loyal."
"It's better to use it to recruit and train troops."
fart! In the end, it doesn't end up in your pocket. Old Man Ding was cursing in his heart, but his face was full of admiration: "Good views, Master Chen!"
The obese middle-aged man waved his hand: "Go and kill it quickly."
"If he dares to cause trouble, send him to guard the city gate and let those evil people greet him!"
Old man Ding shuddered and responded quickly.
…
Chen Mu was arranged by Old Man Ding to wait in a small living room.
About two-quarters of an hour later, Old Ding returned and handed Chen Mu a small cloth bag.
"Your settlement fee is a Dragon Transformation Pill and two hundred taels of silver notes."
"Let's go, I'll take you to choose the training technique."
Chen Mu paused and narrowed his eyes: "Isn't it two thousand taels?"
"Don't you want to choose the training technique? There are many skills here that need to be sorted out." Old Man Ding glanced at Chen Mu and said casually.
Chen Mu was noncommittal.
"Be content. Some people have the life to take the money, but not necessarily the life to spend it!" Old Man Ding said meaningfully.
Chen Mu lowered his head slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He immediately raised his head, nodded expressionlessly, and followed Old Man Ding to the backyard of the government office.
…
There is a huge artificial lake in the backyard, and the library is right next to it.
There was a bored, thin old man sitting at the door, holding a storybook and reading with gusto.
"Xing Laoliu, he wants to choose the training technique and register." Old man Ding said with a smile.
The dark and thin Xing Laoliu raised his head casually, glanced at Chen Mu, and his face suddenly twitched.
Immediately, he bowed his head as if nothing had happened and carefully recorded basic information such as name, time and so on.
"Go up and choose quickly. Don't waste time. They're all the same anyway." Old Man Ding said impatiently.
Chen Mu looked deeply at Old Man Ding, turned around and walked into the library.
Noticing Chen Mu's eyes, Xing Laoliu's eyelids twitched.
…
The library is a two-story wooden building.
The first floor is spacious. When you enter the door, you will see more than twenty three-meter-high bookshelves neatly arranged.
Chen Mu walked forward and picked up a book at random - "Catkin Sword", and another one - "Broken Door Knife"
"I thought it was all about training techniques."
Chen Mu flipped through it casually. Most of it contained killing techniques, with only a few incomplete and simple breathing techniques that could slightly strengthen the body.
"This is probably the mainstream of the world." Chen Mu shook his head.
"Practice is the foundation, these..."
He browsed through the bookshelves like a quick glance. I also noticed that there was a bookshelf containing medical books, poison recipes, etc.
"Let's go to the second floor and have a look." Chen Mu walked up the spiral wooden stairs.
…
Compared with the first floor, there are significantly fewer bookshelves on the second floor.
Only three five-meter-long bookshelves stood there alone.
The things placed on it are also sparse, with one book occupying one position.
A round-faced man was sitting at the window on the second floor, drinking tea and blowing air.
"The training technique is in the first row and the third box. Choose a book and copy it yourself."
"You can also look at other things, but you can't take them away or copy them, unless you give up the training technique."
Zongtai glanced at Chen Mu and said calmly.
Chen Mu squinted at the other party.
Isn't this the person who monitored him that night? Later, I tried to silence him!
If it weren't for this person, I wouldn't be hiding xz!
It was these people who frantically summoned ghosts, destroyed the inner city, and killed without any calculation!
What a heinous crime! .
Chen Mu's thoughts were swirling in his heart, and he tried to keep his face calm, and calmly cupped his fists at Zongtai.
Immediately, he walked to the bookshelf and looked at the more than ten books on training techniques in the grid.
Chen Mu took a deep breath and read slowly.
After a long while, Chen Mu frowned and raised his head.
"Is the family's blockade on training techniques too strong, or is King Chao Tian deliberately hiding it?"
There are more than ten books on training techniques, but only three of them are satisfactory.
The others are all top-notch Kestrel training skills.
"It's a pity that I can only choose one." Chen Mu calmly picked up a copy of "Seven-Anted Black Deer Shape Training Technique" and walked to the desk.
Half an hour later, he left the library.
Chen Mu turned to look at Zongtai by the window on the second floor and nodded politely in greeting.
Zongtai also nodded in greeting, but a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
Why does this person look familiar?
"Xing Laoliu!" Zongtai shouted at the door downstairs.
"Here comes the second master!" Xing Laoliu ran upstairs.
"Is there a problem with that person?" the second master asked casually.
Xing Laoliu's heart was beating fast, but the flattering smile on his face did not change at all.
question? What could be wrong? He's just a ruthless person who cuts bones and fills them with flesh.
He vowed: "Absolutely no problem!"
"Well, do your job well. Your reward is indispensable." Zongtai waved his hand casually.
"Thank you, Master!" Xing Laoliu came downstairs happily.
After sitting back at the desk by the door, I carefully wiped the sweat from my forehead.
"It's better not to mess with such a ruthless person."
"What if he goes on a rampage and kills people?"
"Old man Ding? Ha..."
…
At the entrance of a large house in the east city of the inner city.
"Okay, let's go in. This is the headquarters of Wuzi Camp's instructors." Old Man Ding stuck his head out of the carriage window and lazily pointed at a large red-painted doorway.
Chen Mu looked at Old Man Ding expressionlessly.
Touching the Seven-Antlered Black Deer Shaping Technique in his arms, he thought of the other two books still lying in the library.
Suddenly he smiled and said: "Mr. Ding, I have a cousin, his name is Chen Jia. He has the same strength as Yi Gu and wants to join King Chao Tianwang. Can you help introduce him to him?"
"Where is he?" Old Man Ding was excited at that time.
"It's a pity that he lives in Shanglinfang. He is not in the area you are responsible for."
Old Man Ding frowned. The person in charge of Shanglinfang was not going to deal with him.
After thinking for a long time, he suddenly gritted his teeth. The worst case scenario was that he wouldn't be able to deal with it! There is no reason to give up the fat on your lips to others!
"I'll go find him tomorrow! I'll take him through the process myself!" Old Man Ding said excitedly, another sum of money is about to come in!
Chen Mu was equally happy, another training book was about to be obtained!
Seeing Old Man Ding driving away excitedly, Chen Mu put away his smile, turned around and left Wuzi Camp indifferently.
"I hope you will be so happy the day my identity is revealed."
