On a country road, several hunters were pushing a cart with a lot of prey, apparently ready to go into the city to sell.

The hunters were all dressed in coarse cloth and short clothes, but among them was a young man in a green shirt, not Lin Mu.

Lin Mu picked up the beads after the Jiang family left, and fled, and met the hunters who were going to enter the city on the way, so they went together.

As for the bead, Lin Mu studied all the way and didn't understand it, this bead is a magic weapon, because the golden crow is dead, it was easily refined, and now it is motionless in Lin Mu's dantian, no matter how he urges it, there is no reaction.

The only difference is that Lin Mu feels that he is now more like a "human", as if he is not a little demon form, but was born as a "human".

Thinking that the Golden Crow can penetrate into the human race for so long without being recognized by the identity of the Demon Clan, maybe it is the credit of this bead, and the Golden Crow can't hurt it in the slightest if it explodes, I am afraid that the high grade of this bead has far exceeded Lin Mu's imagination.

"Brother Zhang, how far is it from Wuyuan County?" Lin Mu walked down all the way, and also inquired about some information, there are dozens of villages scattered in a radius of dozens of miles around here, but there is only one big city, which is Wuyuan County, and most of the villages need to rush into the city to buy and sell on weekdays.

"It's almost three or five miles!" Zhang Qiang said heartily, they have had a good harvest recently, and these prey should be able to sell for a lot of silver taels.

A few people walked up for a while, Lin Mu had already seen the city wall not far away, Wuyuan County is a small city, the city gate is not high, not magnificent at all.

"Little brother, we are going to the market, do you want to go with you?" Zhang Qiang talked with Lin Mu happily along the way, and invited each other.

"No, I have something to do. Lin Mu replied.

"Then let's separate here. Zhang Qiang said regretfully.

Lin Mu hugged his fists and said, "Brother Zhang, there will be a period later." ”

Wuyuan County was originally just a small town, under the jurisdiction of Pingyang Prefecture, and later became more and more prosperous, and the population gradually increased, so the town was withdrawn and set up as a county, and then there was Wuyuan County.

Lin Mu walked alone on the street, excited, although the bluestone paved street looks shabby, but spacious and flat, the bright sunlight through the branches of the trees sprinkled between the green tiles and red walls reflected a little mottled, on both sides of the various small shops and shops, in front of the signboard flag fluttering, sparkling carriages, endless crowds, all make Lin Mu feel very fresh.

Although there is a bear mountain admires the culture of the human race very much, and is already trying its best to emulate it, but in comparison, there are still a lot of gaps, not to mention anything else, this popularity alone is not comparable to bear mountain.

"Steamed buns! Freshly released meat buns, each only costs three cents!"

"Noodles, noodles, fragrant soup, come over and eat a bowl!"

"The new silk, the girl came in and took a look...... This son, do you want to buy a horse for your sweetheart......"

The endless shouting on the street made Lin Mu feel more cordial, and he wandered down all the way, and unconsciously walked in front of the yamen.

Although the county seat of Wuyuan is not big, this yamen is quite solemn, two mighty stone statues in front of the door, and there are two officials holding water and fire sticks on the left and right.

"The gatekeepers are just mortals, not even during the Qi cultivation period?" Lin Mu was quite surprised.

The Qi refining period is the first realm of the human race, and in ancient times, the human monks were even called Qi refiners, and the monks in the Qi refining period were already out of the mortal womb of the flesh, but they could not eat the valley, and they would not be sick in all diseases, and the realm was equivalent to the little demon period of the demon race.

"Could it be that the county seat is too small, so there are no monks?" Lin Mu was stopping to watch, and a man in his thirties and forties, dressed in an official robe, walked over from behind, perhaps just finished eating, holding a toothpick in his hand as he walked.

Lin Mu couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart, as soon as he finished speaking, he jumped out, looking at this person's breath, he was afraid that it was the peak of refining gods, and it was slightly better than Ying Wei.

This person walked past Lin Mu, suddenly turned around, and stood still: "You are Lin San who was sent by the master to serve as a trainee?"

"Lin San, which is Lin San? What is the teacher? What position do you hold?Did you recognize the wrong person?" These thoughts flashed in Lin Mu's heart, and he immediately hugged his fists and said: "My subordinates came to report on the orders of the master, and I have seen the adults!"

"It's troublesome if this name doesn't match, and it's too informal to call Lin San, I can't always wear such a name, right?" Lin Mu muttered in his heart, his eyes rolled, and he suddenly had an idea, "My lord, my subordinate name Lin Mu, because there are three trees in the name, so there is also a nickname called Lin San, but now the nickname is not commonly used." ”

"Forests, forests and forests, but they are much better than Lin San. "Speaking this person in official uniform, it is the lord of Zhou Liangwen Zhou, the official residence of the fifth grade, generally speaking, the county is only a seven-grade official, and the five-grade county is also very rare.

Zhou Liangwen looked at the forest and said unhurriedly: "Why is it two days later than the agreed day, what is the reason?"

"Still late? It seems that Lin San's character is not good. Lin Mu's brain turned quickly, and he opened his mouth and said, "Lord Hui, my subordinates found that there was a demon clan along the way, so they tracked it all the way, and accidentally bumped into the three-legged golden crow that someone surrounded and killed the demon clan, so the road was delayed for a while." ”

Lin Mu naturally regarded himself as a subordinate, and the reasons he explained were half-truths and half-falses, even if the yamen sent someone to investigate, he could find traces of that great war, which could prove that what he said was true.

It turned out that Lin Mu was thinking too much, and Zhou Liangwen didn't mean to check at all, but he was slightly surprised: "The three-legged golden crow of the demon royal family has been killed? I'm afraid that there will be chaos again, but ...... What does this have to do with me. ”

"Come with me!" Zhou Liangwen motioned for Lin Mu to follow, and said as he walked, "You are practicing the Little Zhou Tianxing Sutra, you haven't practiced it yet, and the star power of your body is still leaking, Uncle Wu asked you to practice this, because you want to fight that exercise, right?"

"What kind of mess? What Uncle Wu, what exercises? It seems that there is still a connection with Xiao Zhou Tianxing's Heart Sutra?" Lin Mu was confused when he heard it, and he didn't dare to say more, Nuo Nuo said yes.

The two walked to the inner office as they spoke, and a middle-aged man with a loyal face greeted him, and respectfully saluted Zhou Liangwen and said, "My lord, you are here." ”

"Steward Zhao, this is the experienced forest tree sent by the master, and he will temporarily take the position of the head catcher, you can arrange it. Zhou Liangwen said, yawned, and said to Lin Mu: "Steward Zhao is also the county lord, I'm going to take a nap, if you have any questions, just ask Steward Zhao." ”

After that, he didn't wait for Lin Mu to reply, and went to the back hall.

Lin Mu couldn't help but secretly slander: "This adult is really a shopkeeper, even the housekeeper at home can be the head of a county, this county government is only afraid of a word......

"Lin Zhutou, let's go outside and say. Steward Zhao led Lin Mu to walk as he walked, "Adults have always been lazy, and I hope Lin Zhutou will forgive me." ”

Lin Mu was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was calling him, Lin Zhutou, what a novel title, and hurriedly said: "Where is it, adults are casual and open-minded, and care about their subordinates, they are really rare good officials!"

Saying that he will sleep is not casual and open-minded, and he has installed his own people to serve in the yamen, and this concern is real.

Steward Zhao smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I know very well what the adults are, in fact, it wasn't like this before, but since that incident...... Alas, forget it, don't talk about it. ”

Steward Zhao's surname is Zhao Mingzhongting, and he is one of the followers who followed Zhou Liangwen to Wuyuan County back then, but after so many years, those people have been scattered, and he is the only one left, and now more than ten years have passed, it can be said that no one knows Zhou Liangwen better than him.

Although Lin Mu wanted to know what that incident was, after all, the two of them had only met for the first time, and it was not appropriate to talk deeply, so he had to suppress his curiosity and said: "My brother is the same age as me, if you don't dislike it, just call me brother, Lin Zhutou or something is too out-of-the-box." ”

Lin Mu is talking nonsense with his eyes open, what age is similar, Zhao Zhongting's age is more than twice his age.

Zhao Zhongting smiled when he heard this: "Since that's the case, then I'll call you brother." ”

He also knew that Lin Mu's trip was just an experience, and his future was far more than a small county town, so he intended to make friends, and the two had a good conversation.

Next, Zhao Zhongting took Lin Mu to visit the yamen again, received a degree of application of catching heads, and saw that Lin Mu was casually put into a storage bag, and felt that Lin Mu's background was extraordinary.

The entire yamen quickly knew that there was a new catcher in office, and the civil service was fine, and Lin Mu couldn't control them anyway, but those officials gathered together and discussed in private.

"This is the new headcatcher?"

"That's too young!

"Yes, the hair hasn't grown up, can you do things reliably?"

"It's just that there is no hair on the mouth, and the work is not firm. ”

"Xing Zhutou is gone, how can Brother Qi be the head catcher in order to convince the public!"

"Brother Qi is here to be the head catcher, I raise my hands in agreement!"

"I agree too!"

The man who was called Brother Qi by everyone had a gloomy face, originally after Xing Zhutou left, he should have sat on the position of head catcher in terms of qualifications and abilities, but now he was snatched by a hairy boy who appeared out of nowhere, and said secretly angrily in his heart: "I'll try what this kid can do, and he can sit in the position of the head catcher in this county." ”

On the side of the yamen, Zhao Zhongting was still introducing to Lin Mu: "The place where I lived before I took office to catch the head is still empty, you can see if you live together, or if you don't live together, I will change it for you, our county is a lower county, and there is not much cultivation resources, it is definitely not as good as you in the master's gate, but the welfare treatment in real money is definitely not bad." ”

"It doesn't matter, I'm mainly here to train this time, and the treatment is secondary. Lin Mu naturally substituted for the role.

In fact, he still has a lot of cultivation resources, and the batch of resources that he used to sit on the ground with the butterfly fairy and start the price, Lin Mu was delayed because of the retreat, but the butterfly fairy was afraid that Lin Mu would produce any more moths, so he asked Lu Rong to transfer it to him.

As the two were talking, a group of officials came over with a big man surrounded by them, and the big man was Qi Heng, who was called Brother Qi, and Zhao Zhongting arched his hand and said: "Lord Zhao, the brothers all want to see the skills of the new Lin Zhutou, I want to learn from Lin Zhutou." ”

"Nonsense, what is the identity of Brother Lin, he can see like you. Zhao Zhongting saw that Qi Heng was not convinced, and glanced at Lin Mu.

"It doesn't matter. Lin Mu understood, knowing that he didn't have much prestige when he first came, Zhao Zhongting wanted him to take the opportunity to establish his authority, so he said, "It just so happens that I also have some itchy hands, so let's talk about it." ”

"Since Brother Lin agrees, let's talk about it. Zhao Zhongting was still a little uneasy, "Qi Heng, pay attention to proportion." ”

Qi Heng was overjoyed and promised: "Okay, let's go to the front yard, it's spacious." ”

"No, it's right here, it's going to be fast anyway. "Timber Road.

"Dare to underestimate me!" Qi Heng was annoyed and shouted, "Be careful!"

After that, he threw a punch at Lin Mu, this speed and strength, he is indeed a practitioner.

It's just that the fist suddenly stopped in mid-air, and several wooden vines on the ground firmly fixed Qi Heng's feet, and they were still climbing upward.

Qi Heng struggled hard, but Mu Teng was getting faster and faster, and soon he circled Qi Heng's neck a few times.

Qi Heng was shocked, and hurriedly said: "I admit defeat! I admit defeat! Stop, my lord!"

Zhao Zhongting said at this time: "I forgot to tell you that Brother Lin is a fellow disciple of the county lord. ”

Lin Mu accepted the wood vine, Qi Heng breathed a sigh of relief, and said embarrassedly: "It turns out that adults know spells, and I would not have come to lose this person if I knew it." ”

Lin Mu gave a step and said, "I am new to the city, and I am indispensable for the help of my colleagues. ”

When everyone saw Lin Mu's methods, they were convinced, and they hugged their fists and said: "If your lord has orders, your subordinates will do their best." ”

After the officials dispersed, Zhao Zhongting said: "I don't want my brother to be so proficient in spells at a young age, it's not simple." ”

Lin Mu said lightly: "Where, my brother has won the award, there is no other, only he is familiar." ”

Zhao Zhongting laughed and said, "My brother is too modest. I'll take you to your lodgings to have a look, and tomorrow I'll invite some people from the county to pick up the wind in Manjianglou, and my brother must go to the banquet with a good face. ”

Lin Mu understood that this was to introduce him to the leading figures in the county, so as to facilitate his work in the future, so he immediately agreed: "It must be, my brother bothered." ”

In this way, the forest trees that had just come out of the 100,000 mountains turned into a genuine head catcher for Wuyuan County to eat national public grain.

Zhou Liangwen probably never dreamed that such a remote place would encounter an impostor, but he still practiced the pure exercises of the master.

......

Mingyuan Mansion, food for the fairy restaurant.

A middle-aged man about forty years old was respectfully pouring wine for the fat man in front of him, who was more than 200 catties, and persuaded while pouring: "Third young master, the master sent you to Wuyuan County to practice, isn't it good not to go like this?"

"his grandmother's legs! It's a big deal to think about it, and you can't expel me from the division!" Lin San said indignantly, it turned out that he was the one who was sent to Wuyuan County to serve as a trainee, but for some reason he was now in Mingyuan Mansion.

Lin San bit the chicken leg fiercely, and said vaguely: "It's been ten years! It's been ten years! In the past ten years, I haven't eaten or drunk well, and people have lost weight! Now that I finally came out, of course, I have to make up for my body first...... This bullshit experience actually made me go to such a remote place, thousands of miles away, hum!

"The old man is really ruthless! I have nothing to do to send me up the mountain to practice the Tao and learn the Fa, it's really hard! I just want to be a rich young master, I have nothing to tease the birds and walk the dogs, and take a few evil servants to the street to tease and tease the girls of good families, that is life!" Lin San poured a few more sips of wine, his face full of longing and yearning.

"Come, Uncle Wang, don't stand still, sit down and eat together, the wine and food here are much stronger than those on the mountain! If you want to say that this cultivation is still a little useful, I have a lot of food here, how can I eat so many things before." ”

Wang Fu was dragged to sit down, looking at the table full of wine and food with a helpless face, this third young master is very good, but he is lazy to pee and lazy, and he is idle, if it weren't for the master's three sons, only he has qualifications, and he wouldn't spend a lot of money to send him to cultivate immortals and learn the Tao.
