Shangyang Town Prison, Shi Shan arrived at the office room early.

Holding up the scientific research notes, Shi Shan studied them carefully.

I saw the latest page, which recorded Zuo Shuang's experience of reading the scripture "Sun and Moon Book".

"I read the Book of the Sun and the Moon, and I knew that the sun was wide and the moon hung in all directions. From the beginning of heaven and earth, the sun and the moon are born, and the sun and the moon are born and all things are bright~"

Just as he was fascinated, one after another, some colleagues from other prisons came to congratulate him and congratulate him on his victory over Ma Chao.

In the burst of congratulations, Shi Shan was also dizzy, and had to patiently welcome the colleagues who were sent to wave after wave.

Later, even the left prison officer, the right prison officer, and the prison superintendent who didn't have much intersection on weekdays came to congratulate him, giving him a feeling that he had entered the inner circle of the prison.

You must know that in the prison, the prison director is subordinate to the warden, the director of the department and the chief of the capital, and below the three chiefs are the left prison officer, the right prison officer and the prison superintendent, which constitute the core of the prison's power.

After the people who came to congratulate were almost gone, only Liu Zhong remained.

"These people are quite observant, they saw that the warden was not angry because you defeated Ma Chao, but wanted to promote you, noticed the change in the direction of the wind, and hurried to please you. Liu Zhong said disdainfully.

"What, what to promote?" Shi Shan asked Liu Zhong in surprise.

"Haha~"

Liu Zhong laughed a few times, "I just heard them mention a few words, saying that after Master Ma came back yesterday, he convened the three chiefs to discuss it, saying that you are already a third-rate master, and it is inappropriate to serve as a prison official again, and I am ready to promote you, as for what position to promote you, I don't know." ”

Under normal circumstances, Ishiyama would definitely be happy to learn that he was going to be promoted. But being promoted by Ma Quan, Shi Shan was not excited at all, but felt the smell of conspiracy.

What's more, he still wants to continue to contact Yao Jiang.

Liu Zhong observed Shi Shan's expression and was not excited to learn that he was going to be put to pen, and he thought a little higher about Shi Shan in his heart, and felt that Shi Shan must have a lofty pursuit.

Shi Shan would not know what Liu Zhong was doing, but was thinking about how Ma Quan would refuse to promote him.

Until noon, Shi Shan did not get the notice of Ma Quan's promotion of him, and in confusion, Shi Shan picked up the lunch box and went to the underground prison.

"Boy, give me the lunch box in your hand, and my brother will show you a place to bury the treasure. ”

Walking into the basement, a prisoner tempted Shishan with his words.

"Okay, you tell me the place first, and I'll give you a lunch box. Shi Shan said as he walked.

"Come here, don't go any further. Seeing the stone mountain go away, the prisoner who opened his mouth hurriedly shouted.

Ishiyama shook his head with a smile and continued to walk forward.

The inmates in the basement level are unusual, and it is normal for those with large appetites to be provided by the prison.

When he arrived at the Tianjia cell, Shi Shan put down his lunch box.

"It wasn't you who came to deliver food yesterday, I was still a little melancholy, thinking that the prison had replaced me with food, but I didn't expect you to come again today. Yao Jiang said with some joy, and after speaking, his body trembled, and the chains on his body suddenly sounded.

Seeing that Yao Jiang didn't seem to be lying, Shi Shan also felt a little happy, and it was really good to have someone to worry about.

"Yesterday was the day when I competed with Ma Chao, so I didn't come to bring you food. ”

"Oh, how did it turn out?" asked Yao Jiang excitedly.

"I won and I managed to break through and become a third-rate master. ”

"Okay, Shi Shan, you are ruthless, I didn't expect you to have an outstanding talent in martial arts, and you have broken through to become a third-rate master in a short period of time. Yao Jiang praised solemnly.

The rest of the people praised Shi Shan, and Shi Shan didn't feel too much joy, but at this moment, listening to Yao Jiang's words of praise, his heart was agitated.

"This is all the opportunity and allocation given by you in the predecessors, if it weren't for "Jiuyang Refining Body" and your allocation, I would not have achieved my current achievements. ”

Yao Jiang was also a little relieved when he heard this, and for the first time, he felt that being imprisoned here was not so painful.

"Becoming a third-rate master is indeed an important and huge achievement for you now, but you have to raise your horizons, there is still a long, long road ahead, and you are only taking a small step. ”

Hearing this, Shi Shan nodded heavily, "I understand that my life is still long, long, and my road is still far, far away. ”

"Well, by the way, how is your mysterious understanding?"

This was the first time Yao Jiang had asked about Shishan's cultivation progress.

Dragons Gang, Council Chamber.

"Helper, this is not good, Ma Chao is a member of the Ma family after all. Zhang Suiduo frowned and said.

"Why, a Ma family makes you look forward and backward like this?" said Xia Houdong, the leader of the Tenglong Gang, with some contempt.

"Gang leader, Ma Chao's father, Ma Nian, is an officer of the Fire Forest Army, and we sent Ma Chao to the Lechuan Mountains to carry out the mission, but we are afraid that it will cause Ma Nian's dissatisfaction. Zhang Suiduo explained.

"Hmph, Ma Chao can say such a sentence after failing the competition, which shows that his mind is incomplete. You go and tell Ma Chao that if you are afraid of death, quit the Tenglong Gang for me, and my Tenglong Gang will not raise bad seeds. Xiahou Dong snorted coldly.

It turned out that after Xiahou Dong knew what happened to Ma Chao and Shishan's martial arts competition, he decided to send Ma Chao to follow some of the remaining disciples into the Lechuan Mountain Range to hunt valuable demon beasts, in order to hone Ma Chao.

This Zhang Duo was the leader of the group in the Lechuan Mountains this time, and when Ma Chao's name was on the list he was looking at, he hurriedly came to see the gang leader Xiahou Dong.

"Okay, I'll go tell Ma Chao and let him make his own choice. Zhang Suiduo nodded.

"People like Ma Chao will only understand the true meaning of martial arts in the fight of life and death, if he does not dare to face life and death, he will always live in the shadow of the stone mountain. Xiahou Dong said more.

"I see. Zhang Suiduo seems to have realized.

Shangyang Town Prison, Ma Quan's office room, Shi Shan sat in front of Ma Quan somewhat casually.

"Ishiyama, I really didn't expect you to defeat my nephew. Ma Quan said with a simple face.

"It turns out that Master Ma went to watch the battle to see me make a fool of myself, which disappointed my lordship. Ishiyama said with a smile.

Ma Quan shook his head when he heard this, "What are you talking about, I went to watch the battle, naturally I believe that you and my nephew can play a wonderful competition, but I thought that my nephew would win, after all, he became a third-rate master one step ahead of you." ”

"In this way, I wonder if the competition between me and Ma Chao is as exciting as adults expect?" Shi Shan asked deliberately.

Ma Quan was stunned when he heard this, and he was a little angry in his heart, but he tried his best to control his expression, "Wonderful, quite exciting." ”

"Haha, it's good that you didn't disappoint the adults. Seeing Ma Quan trying to control his expression, Shi Shan laughed.

"Shi Shan, I came to you today because I have news to tell you. Ma Quan said and glanced at Shi Shan, and then continued: "You are now a third-rate master, and the position of prison officer is no longer suitable for you, so I decided to directly promote you to be the head of the capital." ”
