There are pros and cons to everything, being an official has the advantages of being an official, and being an official also has the problem of being an official, the problem is that you have to have a meeting every morning, the nature is a bit like the emperor going to the court, all the warriors are present, the prefect who presides over the meeting will inform everyone of some more important things, and the participants can also report to the prefect the special circumstances that occur within their jurisdiction.

At this time, it is timed by the hour, but Wu Zhongyuan is still accustomed to using the hour system, and the time of the daily meeting is about four o'clock in the morning, and the reason why it is so early is to plan and arrange the day's work before dawn.

On a cold winter night, getting up at four o'clock is a huge challenge for Wu Zhongyuan, there is no alarm clock at this time, and he doesn't sleep well all night, so he is afraid of oversleeping, and in the end he still falls asleep in a daze, if it wasn't for Arlo to wake him up, he would definitely be late.

At this time, there is no such thing as a regular meeting, and the accurate name is the morning meeting, as the name suggests, it is the morning meeting.

There are more than 30 warriors in Daqiu, only Wu Qin is a purple qi master, there are four blue qi warriors including Wu Zhen, and the rest are all low-level warriors with red aura.

At this time, great attention was paid to rank, and the warriors of different levels had different seats, the warriors wearing red cloaks sat on square stools, the warriors wearing blue cloaks sat on round stools, and the seats of purple qi masters were large chairs with backrests, and their style was somewhat similar to the later Taishi chairs.

The higher the level, the higher the seat, the lower the level, the closer the seat is to the door, Wu Zhongyuan is the new cave god, the lowest level warrior, sitting on the right hand side of the door.

Wu Zhongyuan's appearance attracted everyone's attention, and suddenly there was a new face, and everyone couldn't help but look at him a few more times, plus they all heard about his "heroic deeds" yesterday, and they took a few more glances in addition to a few more looks.

Wu Zhongyuan was a little embarrassed, lowered his head, and did not look at everyone.

Bowing his head represents an attitude of humility and restraint, seeing him with his head down, everyone will not hate him very much, if he holds his head high and his nostrils are facing the sky, he can offend everyone in an instant.

Wu Qin was not in the city, it was a meeting presided over by Wu Zhen, the meeting lasted about half an hour, Wu Zhen first introduced Wu Zhongyuan to everyone, and then made relevant arrangements for urban defense and people's livelihood.

At the end of the meeting, Wu Zhongyuan returned to his residence with the Gao Xuan magic card given to him by Wu Zhen, the bear clan still has a relatively strict control over the qi training method, the ninth order of qi training, each level has a magic card that records the qi training method, and the low-level warriors do not know what the high-level qi training method is.

He had wanted to get another good night's sleep, but Arlo and her grandmother had already made breakfast.

Wu Zhongyuan had no concept of master and servant, and invited the two to eat together, but the grandfather and grandson declined in fear, he invited again and again, and the two insisted on refusing to serve at the table.

Wu Zhongyuan had no choice but to eat it by himself, deliberately leaving some with the two of them.

There is a place in the city that is specifically responsible for delivering news, called the post house, which is the predecessor of the post house, he is the chief of the post house, and after taking office, he has to go over to say hello to his subordinates and arrange work.

The area of the post yard was larger than he had imagined, covering seven or eight acres, with stables and aviaries accounting for two-thirds of the total area, and the rest of the area was a storehouse for storing grain and grass. The official has an office, and he also has it, not only has an office but also a secretary, and is also a female secretary, who is mainly responsible for recording the use of grain and grass and information about horses and birds.

There were more subordinates than he imagined, there were more than 20 people, wearing many hats, usually raising horses and birds, and in case of emergency, they would act as messengers to transmit messages to various cities.

It is said that the new official took office with three fires, and the main purpose of burning the fire was to establish authority, but this link was redundant for him, first, the warriors belonged to the privileged class, and no ordinary clansmen dared to offend them. Second, everyone knows that he beat Wu Shaoyong in Xicheng yesterday, and he dares to beat even warriors, and he has no taboos for ordinary people.

Wu Zhongyuan had no interest in official business, but he still symbolically flipped through the account books, at least he had to have a general understanding of the situation in the post field, and he couldn't ask three questions and not know anything.

In modern times, in order to avoid suspicion, the official usually does not use a secretary of the opposite sex, but he did not replace his female secretary, at this time there are not many ordinary people who are literate, and they cannot be easily replaced, the most important thing is that this female secretary is an aunt in her fifties.

When he had nothing to do, he went back to his residence to practice qi behind closed doors, although he was temporarily stabilized, his heart was not steady, no one knew his true identity yet, but sooner or later there would be a day when his identity would be exposed, if his identity was exposed, there would be countless people who wanted to put him to death, and without the cultivation above the purple qi, he was powerless to protect himself.

On the evening of the same day, it snowed heavily, and then it continued to fall and stop for several days, and on the night of the fourth day, there was a sudden urgent sound of gongs outside, and the sound of gongs was heard, Wu Zhongyuan turned over and got up, eagerly dressed, and the sound of gongs came from the western city wall, indicating that there was an enemy attack.

Wu Zhongyuan got dressed, Ah Luo had already prepared his longbow and quiver, Wu Zhongyuan put the quiver on his back, grabbed the longbow and pulled the door out.

It was still snowing outside, and the other warriors in the city had left their quarters and moved eagerly towards the western wall. Power and duty are mutual, and warriors have a high status and many privileges, but they also have to step up and take the lead at critical moments.

Wu Zhongyuan cast a birth method and caught up with a young female warrior, "Pingsu, what's wrong?"

Before the other party could answer, a miserable cry was heard from the city wall, and at the same time, many huge white shadows rushed in from outside the city wall.

"It's not good, it's a snow monster!" Wu Pingsu shouted loudly.

Wu Zhongyuan had never seen a snow monster, but he knew what a snow monster was, a white-haired giant ape that had become extinct in modern times, much larger than humans, with a hairy and blood-drinking nature.

At this time, bows and swords are the standard equipment of every warrior, but the snow monster moves quickly, and it is still snowing in the sky.

The first to react were the warriors of all ranks, the warriors wearing different colored cloaks rushed to Xicheng from everywhere, and in the evening they were a few ordinary soldiers, who also rushed to support with weapons, but they did not have night vision and needed to hold torches for lighting.

At the same time that everyone rushed to the west city, a large number of snow monsters jumped into the city from outside the city, the city wall of Daqiu was more than five meters high, but it could not stop these three-meter-tall snow monsters at all, the snow monsters entered the city and immediately rushed into the dwellings, killed the clansmen, and tore and devoured. The roar of the snow monster was mixed with the miserable shouts of the people, which was piercing and terrifying.

Although he knew what this animal looked like, Wu Zhongyuan still gasped after seeing it with his own eyes, these behemoths had red hairs and long canine teeth, and they were chewing on the flesh that had just been torn from their own people, and the people had not yet lost their breath, and they were still screaming miserably.

At this time, the snow monster has been scattered everywhere, everyone can only fight on their own, Wu Zhongyuan took the lead in opening the bow, and shot an arrow at a nearby snow monster, the snow monster has rough skin and thick flesh, although the arrow hit its abdomen, but failed to penetrate into the internal organs.

The snow monster was in pain, and threw the dying man in his hand at Wu Zhongyuan, who dodged sideways, opened his bow again, and shot a second arrow at the rushing snow monster.

The arrow shot at the snow monster's eye, which is a vulnerable part, and the arrow blinded it in the left eye.

Although it was blinded, it could not stop its rush, and the snow monster used all four legs together, leaping past, volleying its claws in the air and slamming at the speed.

The snow monster was huge and fast, Wu Zhongyuan could only roll and dodge, dodge and then take the arrow, and immediately took the arrow after standing firm, and shot its right eye blindly.

The snow monster was blinded, roared in rage, rushed left and right, and beat randomly, and all around it were houses inhabited by the clansmen, and the houses made of mud bricks could not withstand its impact and slapping at all, and they collapsed one after another, and many of the clansmen who hid in them were killed and wounded.

The snow monster went berserk, and Wu Zhongyuan couldn't get close, so he could only open his bow again and shoot his eyebrows.

Although the snow monster was scurrying, the arrow still hit the center of its eyebrow, but the object's skull was unusually hard, and the arrow was only embedded in the skull, not penetrating the bone.

No matter how powerful the archery is, it can't shoot the same part when the target moves, after eagerly examining and weighing, Wu Zhongyuan took two arrows in his hand, shook his wrist and twisted his fingers, and shot with all his strength, the two arrows flew out head to tail, the front arrow hit, and the back arrow pushed the top, which shot into the skull and put it to death.

After killing the opponent, Wu Zhongyuan looked left and right urgently, only to see that the surroundings were full of this huge monster, at least dozens of them, and the purpose of entering the city was very simple, just to catch people and eat, and after encountering resistance, they began to attack warriors and ordinary warriors.

Their sheer size and thick fur make them difficult to kill, their bows and arrows are hard to hit, and if you want to swing them with your sword, you have to risk getting close, because they are up to three meters tall, they can only jump up from their necks, and they are shot out of the air before they can swing their swords.

Although they had an advantage in numbers and a warrior charged, they did not have any advantage, and in fact they were still at a serious disadvantage, and the first bloody battle after this return was not to fight people, but to fight wild beasts......
