PS: Because of the relationship between going to work, there is no way to guarantee the amount of updates (cough, in fact, the update amount of residual snow has always been so pit), and because the time to get off work is at nine o'clock in the evening, the update time will also be put in the night.

In the side hall, Tang Lie sat upright on a chair on the left, his back straight. His face was expressionless, and his mouth was slightly pursed, looking extremely resolute.

And Yanran and the two women sat down on the right, the two chairs were close together, and they were bowing their heads and whispering.

didn't see Ji Jing's figure, Chu Kun thought about it for a while, he should be dealing with the aftermath in the auction house.

"Lord of the Castle!"

"Brother Chu!"

Hearing the footsteps, the three of them subconsciously raised their heads, and after seeing that it was Chu Kun, Tang Lie stood up and saluted, Li Ran ran directly to Chu Kun's side, and Li Yan just stood quietly in place and watched with a smile.

"Hmmm! What about the afternoon auction? Chu Kun no longer had the indifferent face he had when he was in the territory of the female tiger, looked at Li Ran beside him, and asked with a smile.

"There were three troublemakers, but they were all killed by Big Brother Tang Lie." Li Ran hugged one of Chu Kun's arms and said beside him.

"Three times!?" Chu Kun frowned slightly, and then a coldness flashed in his eyes: "They are in a hurry, a little more anxious than I expected." ”

The three professional troublemakers were all killed by Tang Lie, and there should be no awakening level of existence. But thinking about it, it should be so, the news that Chu Kun is not in the auction house is only known to a few of them, and in an uncertain situation, once the Awakening Rank sent out is killed, the loss will be too great.

Even if they all thought that Chu Kun's combat power had been exaggerated, Wutong City did not occupy the advantage of the home field after all, and this risk was not worth taking.

"Whose people wrote it down?" Chu Kun turned his head to look at Tang Lie.

Tang Lie nodded: "It's three different cities, and one of them is just an inconspicuous third-rate town. ”

"Jumping beam clown, I really think that anyone in Wutong City can step on it." Chu Kun couldn't help but snort coldly, and then didn't say anything more. But I wrote it down in my heart.

"This is the cultivation method of the high-level secret technique Phantom Step, you take it to cultivate, and after you finish learning, you will directly destroy the Lingering Stone and the paper." Taking out the prepared Lingering Stone from the Space Ring, and the paper that recorded the Phantom Step cultivation method, Chu Kun handed it directly to Tang Lie.

Tang Lie was stunned for a moment, and then had an incredulous expression. He is not like Zhang Ping, although he only has the strength of an ordinary awakening level, but that also depends on who he was under in the first place.

Wu Lianying sent Hua Ying, Ji Jing, and Tang Lie, each of whom has their own strengths. Hua Ying and Ji Jing are good at internal affairs, while Tang Lie is military. Normal Awakening Tier Strength. It's not the role of Tang Lie. What he is good at military affairs is the ability to train soldiers and arrange troops.

It's just that all along, because there are no available soldiers in Wutong City, he is just not so important. Therefore, although Tang Lie's strength is low, his knowledge is not comparable to ordinary people. I also know about the storage of secret techniques, and I am extremely clear about how precious high-level secret techniques are.

At the moment, when he suddenly saw that Chu Kun had come up with a cultivation method of high-level secret techniques, and he still wanted to give it to himself, he couldn't help but be stunned for a while.

But after reacting. With an eager expression, he looked at the shadow stone in Chu Kun's hand.

Because of his own qualifications, his strength is not strong, so he focuses on the military aspect, and he can be regarded as a general who leads the troops. But it's not that he doesn't want to improve his strength. It's just a matter of being restricted.

Looking at the shadow stone, the calmness that had always been lost was gone, and his face was even faintly flushed because he was too excited.

Taking two deep breaths, Tang Lie tried his best to calm down. Then he immediately knelt down on one knee, took the item in Chu Kun's hand, and said categorically: "Thank you for the gift of Lord City Lord!" ”

When I took the photo stone and the thin few pages of paper. Both hands trembled slightly. ”

Chu Kun smiled: "There is no need to be like this, but the high-level secret technique is unusual, after you cultivate, you have to destroy the Shadow Stone." Chu Kun said again.

"Yes! Subordinates understand! Tang Lie clenched his fists with both hands and said without hesitation.

The two girls had been watching strangely from the side, although they didn't understand what the secret technique was, but judging from Tang Lie's reaction, it was obviously not simple.

Chu Kun glanced at Li Ran's curious gaze beside him, and did not explain for the time being, but shouted outside the hall: "Someone!" ”

"Lord of the Castle!" The two professional guards heard the sound and hurriedly walked into the hall to wait.

"Go and see if there is a person named Zhang Ping outside the mansion and bring him over." Chu Kun said.

It has been more than an hour since Zhang Ping left the City Lord's Mansion, and the time is just about the same.

"Yes!" The two professional guards received the order, first got up and slowly retreated, and only after leaving the temple gate did they turn around and trot out.

Chu Kun waved his hand to the three of them, walked to the top seat and sat down, Li Ran did not leave to sit aside, but followed and stood behind Chu Kun.

That is, after waiting for two or three minutes, a professional guard came in and announced: "City Lord, Zhang Ping has arrived." ”

Chu Kun nodded: "Well, let him in." ”

The professional guards withdrew, and Zhang Ping's figure appeared at the entrance of the hall.

Glancing at the side hall in a flash, Zhang Ping walked to the center of the side hall, clasped his fists and bowed: "Lord of the city." ”

"Tang Lie, let Zhang Ping follow you in the future, and be your deputy for the time being." Chu Kun said to Tang Lie.

Then Chu Kun looked at Zhang Ping, who was standing, and asked, "Do you have any questions?" ”

Zhang Ping glanced at Tang Lie, although he was just an ordinary awakening level for Tang Lie, he let himself be under it, and he was quite a little slighted in his heart.

However, he didn't say it, but said respectfully: "Follow the orders of the city lord." ”

"Hmm." Chu Kun nodded, he could guess Zhang Ping's heart, but letting him be Tang Lie's deputy was only a temporary plan.

Although Zhang Ping joined Wutong City, whether he was loyal or not was still something uncertain. Tang Lie's subordinates could be said to have mastered most of the remaining forces in Wutong City except for that group of mercenaries. He didn't want Zhang Ping to get involved, so if he arranged the identity of a deputy, Tang Lie's subordinates would not follow the orders of this strange deputy, even if this new deputy was an awakening level.

This is just to let Zhang Ping get familiar with the situation in Wutong City first, and he has already thought about Zhang Ping's specific arrangements from the time he planned to recruit him.

"In that case, go down first. Tang Lie, you take Zhang Ping to familiarize yourself with things first. Chu Kun waved his hand and glanced at Tang Lie indifferently.

Although Tang Lie is a resolute person, but sometimes he doesn't know how to be flexible, and if he doesn't give him a look, I'm afraid he will really do his best to help Tang Lie establish prestige among those professionals according to what Chu Kun said. (To be continued......)
