Chapter 42: Upgrading Children (3rd Watch)

Seeing the content of the task reward, Gu Ming was pleasantly surprised.

I didn't expect that there would be an extra reward of 100 experience points, so that you can level up directly.

There are also two skill upgrades worth 40 points.

He's 0 points now.

Anyway, it's earned.

So I directly withdrew the reward and clicked the "+" sign on the character interface.

[Congratulations, you've leveled up]

Host: Gu Ming

Plane: Chat the world

Level: Tong Sheng (Next Level: Xiucai)

Experience Points: 45/1000

Credits: 0

Skill: Exit Chapter (Level 1)

Skill: Brilliant Brush (Level 1)

Skills: Calligraphy (Level 2), Painting (Level 1), Chess (Level 1), Music (Level 1)

It's still the familiar formula, the familiar dizziness......

However, Gu Ming was used to it, and it just made him dizzy.

After a while, the whole person became extremely awake and light.

A word suddenly came to mind: light as a swallow.

That's right, this is Gu Ming's strongest feeling now, it seems that he can fly up with a slight vertical.

Compared with the previous upgrades, this time the feeling of improvement is still obvious.

Come to think of it, it's a metamorphosis.

After all, in reality, being promoted from a scholar to a child is a leap in itself.

The light in the grass shed was dim, but it did not affect Gu Ming's eyesight at all.

You can even see details such as dark spots on the thatch on the roof.

If you listen closely, you can hear the small footsteps of pedestrians outside.

It was as if a whole new world was slowly unfolding in front of him......

Happily perceiving his own changes for a while, Gu Ming took the skill upgrade charm and upgraded the painting and music to level 2 respectively.

Even if you don't use it to pretend, these two skills are still very practical.

The important thing is that after the character reaches a certain level, the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting can be turned into fighting skills, which can be used to cultivate sentiment and retreat from the enemy.

Subsequently, Gu Ming subconsciously clicked on the task interface to view.

As a result, there were no new tasks to take on, presumably because there was no exchange for new books.

Then, you can only temporarily do daily tasks to gain experience.

I was about to spread out the pen and paper and copy the novel, but my heart moved...... Now that they've all been upgraded, why not do something about it?

Looking up at the sky outside, it was just getting dark.

It's a good time to act.

So I rummaged through the cabinets and finally found a set of black clothes.

……

The inner courtyard of the county government.

In a side room, Qin Shou, Zhou Yuanwai, and another wealthy businessman surnamed Feng were sitting and drinking together.

"Adult, villain toasts you again!"

Feng Yuanwai picked up the wine glass and said with a flattering smile.

This guy is the closest businessman to Qin Shou except for Zhou Yuan.

A lot of money was spent, but the more money was earned, the more it was natural to be more pleased.

"My lord, I heard that Lord Shen will be here tomorrow?"

"Hehe, Master Zhou's news is still quite well-informed...... That's right, if nothing else, it's tomorrow afternoon. ”

Zhou Yuanwai perked up, and said in a low voice: "My lord, the little one will hold a banquet in Baixiangju tomorrow night, and then call a few more beauties to help entertain him......

Qin Shou smiled knowingly: "Hehe, Zhou Yuanwai has a heart." ”

The three of them drank happily, but they didn't know that there were already people lurking on the roof.

It's none other than Gu Ming.

With his current strength, those officials in the county government can't find out his whereabouts at all.

It seems that the time has been right, and the three guys are plotting a conspiracy.

"My lord, when Lord Shen tries the case, the group surnamed Zeng will definitely appear, and they will be ...... when they make a fuss."

"Afraid of what? Isn't there still Lord Shen? To put it bluntly, this is also what Lord Shen meant.

The main thing is to take this opportunity to force the surnamed Nie, as long as he is soft, then he can't pinch it as much as he wants? ”

"Yes, yes, my lord is wise!" Zhou Yuanwai took the opportunity to shoot the horse.

Feng Yuanwai asked with some concern: "My lord, if the surnamed Nie is really soft and passes this pass, will he turn around and take revenge on us at that time?" ”

"Hehe, there is an official covering you, what are you afraid of?"

Qin Shou said conceitedly, then glanced at Zhou Yuanwai and said, "You have to keep a close eye on people there, that's the key to this case." ”

"Rest assured, the small courtyard in Xiaofeng Lane is an industry purchased by the villain in his early years, and not many people know about it.

Moreover, the guards sent by the villain are also two henchmen, which are absolutely reliable. ”

"Well, that's good! As long as people are in our hands, Feng Laosi will not dare to retract his confession, unless he wants the whole family to die! ”

When he heard this, Gu Ming couldn't help frowning.

Feng Laosi, isn't this the smuggling salt dealer who accused Nie Hongshu?

After eavesdropping for a while, the three of them began to talk about something indescribable.

From time to time, the room erupted in laughter......

Gu Ming listened lazily and quietly left the county office.

Soon after, I came to Xiaofeng Lane.

Although the other party didn't say which courtyard in Xiaofeng Lane, there are more than 20 small courtyards in this alley, and it is not difficult to search.

When the seventh house was found, the target was found.

In a lighted room, two men were drinking and ordering.

Then, Gu Ming found that there were two people locked up next door.

Although there was no light in the room, with Gu Ming's eyesight, he could still faintly see from the crack in the window that it was a woman and a five or six-year-old child.

Their hands were untied, but their feet were bound together by a chain.

There was also a basin on the ground with a few leftover leaves in it.

Now, there is nothing to suspect, it must be the wife and children of Feng Laosi.

However, for the sake of safety, Gu Ming inspected all the courtyards one by one, and then quietly left.

After that, he appeared in the inner courtyard of the county government again.

"Lord Nie~"

Gu Ming knocked lightly on the window and whispered.

"Huh?"

Nie Hongshu hadn't slept yet, he was reading a book, and when he heard the voice, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and stepped forward to open the door.

"Gu Sheng......"

"Go in and say."

Gu Ming flashed into the room.

"How did you sneak in at night? Hasn't the county government closed down a long time ago? ”

"Hehe, this is not difficult for students......"

Hearing this, Nie Hongshu was stunned, and then muttered: "Could it be that you can fly?" ”

"Almost...... Master Nie, the students are in such a hurry to come because they have discovered a secret matter......"

Gu Ming recounted in detail what he heard and what he found when he went to Xiaofeng Lane later.

"Sure enough......" Nie Hongshu couldn't help sighing: "When that guy accused the official, I felt that his eyes were wrong, it turned out that his family had been kidnapped." ”

"Master Nie, this is our biggest hole card.

When the time comes, you can throw this hole card and make the opponent mess up. ”

Nie Hongshu nodded with satisfaction: "Thank you for your hard work, so there is almost no suspense."

Gu Sheng, I know that you and Xiaoqian are very worried about this official. But don't worry, in fact, the official has been prepared.

In short, this time I must make those two dog officials look good! ”
