Chapter IV, Section II
Back at the security office, Du Pingshan announced Jin Yi's appointment, and everyone was noisy, all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred. Several captains clamored for Jin Yi to treat him, and Jin Yi knew that Daotai Yamen and Qinglong would pick him as the deputy director, just to let him rush to the front and find trouble in the White Tiger Hall. Then again, is the trouble in the White Tiger Hall so easy to find?
Jin Yi simply passed the three squads he led, chatted with a few captains, and asked Du Pingshan to approve the bereavement of his former subordinates, Du Pingshan didn't say anything, he knew in his heart that those people were wasted.
Jin Yi is not wasted, and there is nothing to do with it. Looking at the situation that day, Xu Zhanpeng came out with a disgraced face, which shows that Jin Yi is not an ordinary person.
If it weren't for this, Du Yuesheng would not have been able to put on such a scene for such a small role.
The invitation to the opening of Xinglong Hotel had already been sent to the three institutes, and they were well-informed and actually knew that Jin Yi had been promoted to deputy director, so the title of deputy director was written on the invitation.
Jin Yi looked at the invitation and said to Du Pingshan: "It is estimated that there will be no shortage of eyeliner in the White Tiger Hall in the Daotai Yamen. ”
"So there's nothing to keep secret from us. Du Pingshan sighed, "The matter of the Military Investigation Bureau was messed up, and I still think that it was a leak from the Daotai Yamen and the Security Office, and Xu Zhanpeng simply stayed in the East China Sea and did not leave." ”
"Let him go. Jin Yi didn't want to mention this, he felt that Du Pingshan was always testing him intentionally or unintentionally, so he changed his words, "Director, what are your instructions for going to their opening reception tonight?"
"Forget it today, there are probably a lot of head-to-head people who go. Du Pingshan said, "Wait until you catch the handle, and then give them a good look." ”
The Xinglong Hotel has long been brightly lit, the door is full of colorful Seven Heavenly Dancing Girls, four of the Eight King Kongs of the White Tiger Hall came, and Lin Jue brought two of his subordinates to greet guests at the door because he was the manager of the hotel.
Seeing that Du Pingshan and Jin Yi had arrived, Lin Juepi greeted him with a smile, and the two dancers brought them in.
The banquet hall of the hotel is mostly filled with high-rollers and officials from various yamen, and there are also many business tycoons.
On the rostrum, Zhang Xiaotian actually attended in person, and Yu Xiaqing naturally arrived. On the side of the Daotai Yamen, Zhu Guangfu came to cheer, and Du Yue asked Huang Tiedi to send a congratulatory ceremony, and Huang Tiedi himself represented the Joint Boundary Inspection Bureau. What is surprising is that the Four Seas Association actually sent someone to come.
The representative of the Four Seas Club is Jiang Bo, Wang Yaqiao's eldest apprentice. Jiang Bo is nearly thirty years old, and he is known as the eight-armed Nezha on the rivers and lakes, and it is said that he is covered with hidden weapons, and he is a famous figure in the Four Seas Society. Wang Yaqiao himself would never attend the celebration of the cocktail party, and sent Jiang Bo to give Zhang Xiaotian enough face.
Although Du Pingshan is only the director of the security station, because of his identity in the Blue Dragon Club, people keep coming, and he is busy with socializing. Jin Yi was a small character, no one paid attention to it, so he just took the time to slip aside, took some cold pastries on the edge of a dining table, asked the waiter for a glass of Continental champagne, and sat in the corner to eat and drink.
Waiting for the waiter to bring the champagne, Jin Yi had already eaten half of the dishes, Jin Yi raised his wine glass and was about to take a sip, but saw a young man wearing a Chinese robe sitting next to him. Jin Yi didn't know him, but the man whispered to Jin Yi: "Director Jin, fortunately, I call Qian Jincai." ”
Jin Yi looked at him, completely unable to remember that he had ever seen this person: "I don't know you." ”
"I haven't seen Mr. Jin either," Qian Jincai held a glass of red wine in his hand, but he didn't drink it, just held the wine in front of him, "It was Ugina who asked me to come to Mr. Jin, and I want you to give this to her cousin An Lilian." ”
As he spoke, a folded note suddenly appeared between his fingers, and he shoved it into his hand while shaking hands with Jin Yi.
Jin Yi was stunned for a moment, looked at Qian Jincai vigilantly, and did not speak, but he already held the note in his hand.
"She asked me to thank Mr. Kim for helping her a lot that night. Qian Jincai's eyes looked at the wine glass, as if talking to himself.
Jin Yi exhaled softly, and now he could be sure that Qian Jincai was indeed speaking for Ugina.
Jin Yi knows Ugina's cousin, An Lilian. An Lilian is the account manager of Jufeng Bank, the largest bank in the United Realm, but she only meets Wu Tianlang twice a year at the holiday party at his house, and she is not very familiar with her.
"And then?" Jin Yi wanted to ask something more, but he couldn't say anything.
Qian Jincai didn't speak anymore, just smiled and raised his glass to Jin Yi, then turned around and left.
Jin Yi didn't have the heart to continue wandering around the drinking party. He got up and walked around the banquet hall, greeted a few acquaintances in the Daotai Yamen Department, and asked a small leader of the Blue Dragon Society, knowing that Du Pingshan was talking to the people of the United Engineering Bureau with several high-level officials of the Blue Dragon Society, so Jin Yi simply ignored him and left on his own.
After leaving the Xinglong Hotel, it was not too late to see that the time was not too late, so Jin Yi walked to the tram station to take the train. Two years ago, the Engineering Bureau built three more power plants in Lianjie, and the tram was also opened. Compared to the big cities in other parts of the world, the East China Sea Union should be the most prosperous in the world after the Dark Ages.
Jin Yi is now a little resistant to rickshaws. Although there are four rickshaw shops in the United Sector, who knows if they will run into the cars of Chase Motorcycle. Although the matter is settled, many people still hate Jin Yi up and down the Chase Dealership. So although he waited for more than ten minutes for the train, and several of the rickshaws passed in front of him slowly, Jin Yi still waited patiently for the tram to enter the station.
In fact, Jinyi's apartment is not far from Xinglong Hotel. But he's going to go back to the Wujia Pharmacy today. Ugina hasn't heard from him for the past few days, and the news that suddenly popped up just now made him a little uneasy. He wanted to go back and ask Wu Tianlang again to see if there was any news from Ugina. In addition, about Zhenwu Demon Suppression Gong and Beidou Zhenqi, he also wanted to ask Wang Renkui again. Although he is comfortable practicing now, but after all, he is groping for himself, whether there is this practice or not, he hopes that Wang Renkui can give an explanation, after all, this set of exercises was passed on to him by Wang Renkui.
The Wujia Pharmacy is closed, but the business lights at the door are still on. The rule of the pharmacy is to keep a small window open at night, because there must be prepared for emergency medication for patients.
Jin Yi said hello to the guy on night duty at the pharmacy and went to the backyard. He used to live in the east wing of the backyard, and Wu Tianlang still keeps it for him. Ugina lived in the West Wing, and when Jin Yi entered the backyard, he habitually glanced there, and there was no movement in the dark.
Jin Yi went directly to the upper room. There is a table of eight immortals in the main hall of the upper room, and there are two Taishi Taishi chairs on both sides, all of which are made of old mahogany. Above the entrance is a picture of Ge Xian picking medicine, and two ancient Tang poems are recorded in the couplet next to it: "Only in this mountain, the clouds are deep and I don't know where."
To the left of the main hall is the study, and to the right is the bedroom. Wu Tianlang hadn't slept yet, and was sitting in the study drinking tea. On the desk was a newly bought lantern radio, and at this time the drama "Straw Boat Borrowing Arrows" was playing in the Shang family's class, Wu Tianlang closed his eyes and babbled.
When Jin Yi lifted the curtain and entered the study, Wu Tianlang opened his eyes slightly, and his fingers were still tapping on the table: "The kid is thinking about coming back? ”
Jin Yi sat down across the desk: "Master, Senior Sister hasn't come back yet, have you been out for a few days?"
Wu Tianlang turned down the volume of the radio a little, frowned and thought about it: "She has been out for five days, saying that she is on a business trip to the commercial house, going to Jianye with the ship, and then going to Rongcheng, and it will take more than 20 days to come back." ”
Seeing that Wu Tianlang couldn't find any news here, Jin Yi was a little absent-minded.
"You came here at night to ask where your senior sister is?" Wu Tianlang is old and mature, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, that's what I asked," Jin Yi hurriedly covered up, "I came to find Uncle Wang, I always feel that something is not quite right when I practice, I don't know if something went wrong." ”
"Didn't I tell you last time, I passed on your Kongtong Sect's ancient boxing method, the big stele hand, and the empty boxing, all of which are real outer door exercises," Wu Tianlang took a sip of tea, "That method of luck and strength, from the outside in, can also achieve the realm of the grandmaster." You have to learn some Xuanmen internal skills from Lao Wang. ”
"It's not that I'm going to learn," Jin Yi said, "It's Uncle Wang who has to pass it on to me, Master, don't you agree." ”
"Okay, I agree, it's not that you want to practice yourself," Wu Tianlang waved his hand, "Hurry up and go to Lao Wang's place, and ask him before he sleeps." ”
Wang Renkui always has a little wine before going to bed, and he lives in the east wing of the front yard. The east wing was divided into three small rooms, and Wang Renkui lived in the middle one. When Jin Yi passed, he was almost drunk. Seeing Jin Yi enter the house, he squinted his eyes and said, "I'll sleep later." ”
"Uncle Wang, don't sleep yet. Jin Yi said, "I recently practiced the True Martial Arts Demon Suppression Skill. There's always something wrong. ”
Wang Renkui looked Jin Yi up and down for a while: "Didn't you check the pulse last time, I see that you look good." ”
Jin Yi hesitated: "It's just that the refining is too smooth, and I feel a little uncontrollable." Every time the dantian has qi, it will automatically go up, and if the qi is conducted, it will be dispersed to the meridians of the whole body. It doesn't feel like a normal practice. ”
"Really?" Wang Renkui stretched out two fingers to put on Jin Yi's left hand, "You have a good luck." ”
"Something is going to happen," Jin Yi said, "the first two times I was lucky when I got my hands on it, but I don't know why the other party didn't work right away." ”
Wang Renkui frowned: "The kid is good at it now! Don't forget that I passed on this technique to you." ”
Jin Yi had no choice but to take a breath cautiously, and as soon as the true qi in the dantian moved, he immediately rushed into the Purple Mansion, and then a wave surged from the divine court to the meridians of the whole body. This was only a matter of a moment, Wang Renkui flicked his fingers, his body suddenly leaned back, his whole body twitched like a lightning strike, and his face suddenly turned pale.
"Uncle Wang, are you okay?" Jin Yi hurriedly supported him, "What is going on?"
Wang Renkui took a deep breath and laughed dryly, "The kid is good at kung fu!" but didn't answer Jin Yi's question.
"But I always feel that it is not the right way. Jin Yi was a little weak-hearted, "It's not quite the same as what Uncle Wang taught at the beginning." ”。
Wang Renkui sighed: "The right way? What is the right way? To practice good luck, first of all, you must be smooth, and when you are smooth, that is the right way." Are you going well now?"
"That's right," Jin Yi said, "but what if you always hurt people?"
"If you make a move, you just want to hurt people, otherwise do you do it?" Wang Renkui sneered, "He was injured by you, that is not as good as others, what are you doing." ”
"Then Zhenqi is still refining like this?" Jin Yi asked.
"Let's practice, it's good to practice like this, and I'll talk about it when I'm not angry. ”
Jin Yi knew that Wang Renkui was often unreliable, but this time it was a little too unreliable. When he said this now, he could only be speechless.
