Chapter 357
In the evening, the Black Sea City Search Bureau.
"After our liquidation, the total value of the medical expenses and the loss of Cordyceps of the Worm Valley Demon Spirit is 1,345,722 yuan and nine cents according to the lowest market cost price."
The staff member sitting opposite Jiang Yifan's table took a small notebook and said, "In view of your previous behavior of arresting wanted criminals, you can use the bounty that has been obtained but not issued to directly deduct it, so that you only need to pay the remaining 45,722 yuan and nine cents and eight cents, and you can leave." β
β... Okay, is it okay to transfer money with Chicken Fubao? β
Although it was very painful, Jiang Yifan still didn't show it too obviously.
It's not just a return to the pre-liberation period, but it's also fucking upside down...
"Of course, you can also pay by card."
The staff brother smiled and nodded.
"Then can you pay for the dishes?"
Jiang Yifan blinked.
"Hmm... Theoretically, it's not impossible. β
The staff brother pondered for a while and replied seriously.
"Really?"
Jiang Yifan's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Of course, but in addition to washing the dishes, you generally have to step on the sewing machine."
β...β
Jiang Yifan, who was countered to the first army, couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.
If you don't give money, you will go straight to prison...
[The daily limit of 10,000 yuan within 2 hours, and the limit of 1 day after 1 day]
Just when Jiang Yifan was about to transfer money, such a prompt popped up on the screen.
"By the way, according to the process, we can only let you leave after the compensation actually reaches the account."
Glancing at the prompt, the staff member prompted, "If there is a daily limit, you may have to wait a little longer." β
"You can't get it until midnight..."
Jiang Yifan had a bitter face.
Originally, according to the original plan, I was going to have an early rest today, and then I spent the whole day tomorrow and Saturday for sightseeing.
But suddenly there is such a play, and the mood for playing is not good...
"You can also pay directly in cash."
Suddenly, the staff brother remembered something and said, "When we searched before entering the bureau, we found that your werewolf chasing the wind was carrying about twenty or thirty thousand in cash. β
"So much?"
Jiang Yifan's eyes couldn't help but widen in surprise, "Then pay directly in cash..."
...
On the other side, the detention cell.
"Ah sneeze~"
The wind-chasing werewolf, crouched in the corner, sneezed without warning.
The three little ones beside him couldn't help but greet with concern:
(?? `Οβ²?) Big wolf, it's time to drink the medicineΓ3
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the detention room.
Then the door was opened, and Jiang Yifan said with a tense face: "Let's go." β
Before leaving the search bureau, the demon spirit of the staff also returned the items that had been taken from the previous search.
"Huh?"
Looking at a steel hammer lying quietly in his palm, the wind chasing werewolf couldn't help but tilt his head in confusion.
????? Got it wrong, sir? I had tens of thousands of dollars before I came in, so why just give me one dollar? You don't want to do magic to surprise you, do you?
"The amount of compensation is a bit much, and I don't have enough money here, so I can only use your payment first."
Jiang Yifan coughed lightly and patted it on the shoulder.
β... Whew? β
The werewolf chasing the wind couldn't help but be stunned.
"On that day, our Mr. Wolf of the Part-time Street encountered the biggest setback of his career, and when he tasted the taste of a cut leek for the first time, his eyes lost light..."
- "How the Wolf of the Working Street is Trained"
...
The next day, Jiang Yifan took three small and one large to visit the scenic spot according to the original plan, and bought a lot of souvenirs by the way.
However, the three little ones with heavy dark circles under their eyes always looked like a sleepy lake along the way.
In addition to the fact that the bodies of the snake master and the crow are already a little overdrawn, another reason is:
The night before, Sanxiao was arranged by Jiang Yifan to go to the back kitchen of the hotel to brush the bowls all night as punishment.
As an overseer, the werewolf chasing the wind also has the secret to be refreshed after staying up all night - all the money from washing the dishes belongs to it.
Well... In addition to the overseer, I heard that it also brushed a lot of dishes itself last night.
It shows its ambition to make a comeback...
...
Monday, December 7, Martial Arts Club.
Jiang Yifan, who has just returned to campus life after special training, still needs to be busy this week and has no free time.
After all, this weekend, there is also the first round of the provincial promotion competition, and the direct promotion interview of intermediate cultivators, these two important things need to be prepared.
"God of Wealth bless, let me open a superb earth resource with one sword."
Jin Yuanbao folded his hands and closed his eyes and prayed to a fist-sized stone in front of him.
Lei Yao and Di Yao gathered around him, watching with the same expectation.
"No matter how much you pray, what should be in it or what is in it will not change."
Seeing that the prayer time was a bit too long, Jiang Yifan couldn't help but say helplessly, "Just like the exam, the moment you hand in the paper, it is already destined for how many points you will score." β
What Jin Yuanbao was in front of was not an ordinary stone, but another specialty of Southern Xinjiang Province in addition to insects - gambling stones.
There are two types of gambling stones, one is jade used to make jewelry, and the other is a resource that can be used by demon spirits.
The gambling stone he purchased for Jin Yuanbao belongs to the latter.
In addition, I also bought some souvenirs for my parents and members of the martial arts club.
"Tut-tut, Ah Fan, you are still too young, let me tell you about my personal experience."
Jin Yuanbao shook his index finger with a little pride, "There was an exam last year, and I almost fell from the throne of the bottom two of the grade, but fortunately, there was a teacher who corrected the wrong score at that time. Therefore, such a thing as changing one's life against the sky is still real. β
β... Can you not be so proud of this kind of thing. β
The corners of Jiang Yifan's mouth couldn't help twitching.
"Come on, Shi Xiongbao, I have a hunch that there is a good thing inside."
Jin Yuanbao patted Shi Xiongbao's head and motioned for him to open the stone.
"Whew~"
Shi Xiongbao also patted his chest with confidence, picked up the stone and put it in his mouth, and there was a 'rattle' sound.
When it spit out the saliva-stained stone from its mouth, everyone saw that the center of the stone's cracked interior emitted a golden shimmer, and its texture looked somewhat like clay.
"Golden earth, long-term application to the hair or scales of earth-based spirits, can make them tougher and strengthen their defenses"
Chu Qi, who also cultivated earth-based demon spirits, took the initiative to introduce, "This quality and weight can probably be sold for about 10,000 yuan." β
"Hmph, my true eye to penetrate the delusion is not mistaken, it is indeed the golden earth."
Lei Yao, who was covering one eye in the second place, was an afterthought.
"I thought I could open a good thing worth millions, but I didn't expect it to be just a few hundred dollars..."
Jin Yuanbao couldn't help but scratch his head in some frustration.
"It's already good if you don't lose money."
Han Feng explained vigorously, "Before the gambling stone is sold, it will basically go through the general appraisal and judgment of experts, and those that can really offer a high price will be directly picked up, and the so-called leakage is generally just a gimmick that these experts look away or deliberately put in." β
Di Yao nodded in agreement.
'Knock knock! β
During the chat, Li Sen, the head teacher who had arrived at some point, knocked on the door of the activity room of the martial arts club.
"It's all there, aren't they?"
Li Sen glanced at his face with a serious face, and then found a chair to sit down, "Since they are all here, let's start today's regular meeting directly and talk about the situation of the opponent in the first round." β
"Which school did you get to?"
Looking at Li Sen's rare solemnity, Jiang Yifan couldn't help but have a bad premonition, and the others also leaned forward slightly.
"Heaven Descends"
"Tsugi Middle School."
Li Sen's index finger tapped lightly on his thigh.
"Harm! Why is the atmosphere so serious in a middle school? I didn't know, I thought it was Dragon's Tooth Middle School..."
Lei Yao suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Although Lumu Middle School is not a strong school, it also reached the second round of the promotion round last year, at least in this respect, they were stronger than us last year, so they can't be underestimated this year."
Di Yao said a long sentence in a rare muffled voice.
"But that's also in the past, now we have Senior Chu Qi in charge, isn't it indiscriminate killing against them?"
Jin Yuanbao waved his hand disappreciatively.
"Kigi Middle School..."
Han Feng frowned slightly and thought, "I remember that the members of their martial arts club, there seems to be a member named 'Ke Zhe' who is a child of the family, and the characteristics of their family's secret technique 'Transferring Flowers and Grafting Trees' are developed by relying on the racial ability of 'Aomori Python'.
Because they can graft part of the power of a high-level demon spirit to another low-level demon spirit to a certain extent, the Ke family often performs very quickly in the early stage of strength improvement.
However, due to the restrictions of the rules of the college entrance examination, the power of this grafting is not recognized, so Ke Zhe's demon spirit who is currently participating in the martial arts league should not have completed the 'grafting'..."
As he was talking, Chu Qi suddenly interrupted: "The rules of the promotion tournament should have been changed, right?" β
As soon as these words came out, the surprised eyes of the rest of the people instantly looked at Li Sen in unison.
"Yes, the organizing committee passed the change to the rules of the event last night and announced it before today's draw."
Li Sen nodded solemnly, "The biggest change in the rules is in the cultivation period of demon spirits, from the original demon spirits who follow the college entrance examination standards and contract after the end of the first year of high school can participate, to those who have a contract within three years can participate."
In addition, some minor rules and restrictions have been relaxed accordingly, such as the Ke family's secret technique 'Flower Grafting', which has been approved for fair use in the event.
If according to the original rules, Ke Zhe could only use the demon spirits contracted and cultivated after the first year of high school.
But after the rules were changed, he was able to appear again, and the demon spirits that had been contracted and cultivated in advance before, coupled with the blessing of secret skills, it is estimated that his strength can be comparable to that of a captain. β
β...β
Everyone was silent.
What is the concept of comparable to the rank of lieutenant?
You must know that in the qualifying stage, the demon spirit who has just entered the military level can already be regarded as a high-end combat power, which is enough to become a qualification ticket for the promotion tournament in the province.
If all the demons of all the players are at the soldier level and are not at the unskilled level of the newcomer, then the places in the national competition will also have a chance to compete.
Looking back at the national competitions in previous years, the high school teams from the imperial capital and the magic capital have to be called the fairy lineup and the strongest high school students every time they appear, and they are only at the peak of the full army level and one step away from the captain level.
Perhaps with their superb tactical level and tacit understanding, they can work together to defeat the captain-level players, but if they are taken out alone, they are definitely not comparable to the captain-level.
After all...
The referee is only a captain.
"After some of the restrictions are lifted by the rules, in addition to Ke Zhe, there should be many people whose strength will be released."
With such a low morale, Han Feng still poured a basin of cold water out of place, "Maybe others won't have a combat power comparable to that of a captain like him, but a 'champion' lineup at the peak of the full army level may become more common." β
"The speed at which this combat power expands is faster than inflation..."
Jiang Yifan made a joke bitterly.
In fact, he originally had a bad news to tell everyone, but now he can't say it - because of the overdraft of his body, the snake master needs to cultivate during this time, and he is not suitable for fighting.
Even if you can choose to let the Ravens play after the rules of the tournament are changed, it and the Shadow Raven Legion are still in a state of inadequacy and need to recuperate.
And Uncle Wolf, despite his captain-level strength, does not meet the requirement of 'cultivation time within three years'.
Looking at it this way, the only one who can meet the conditions for fighting on the field is the licking ginseng that does not learn and has no skills...
"Playing against a player with captain-level strength, if the opponent accidentally releases a large attack power, the referee may not be able to stop it, right?"
Imagining the picture of being blown into slag in his mind, Jin Yuanbao immediately shivered with fear.
"Comparable to the lieutenant rank, it doesn't mean that it is completely equal to the lieutenant rank, strictly speaking, it should be regarded as a powerful military rank?"
Di Yao said in a muffled voice.
Facing Di Yao's inquiring gaze, Li Sen nodded: "Yes, Ke Zhe's Aomori python should only be able to use some captain-level attack power, and it is still a soldier-level." β
"Since it's a soldier, what else is there to be afraid of?"
Lei Yao slapped his thigh excitedly, jumped on the table with full fighting spirit, pointed to the sky outside the window, and said in an extremely middle tone: "Even if the gods don't give humans wings, I can lead you to drive the fighter plane into heaven!" β
"Since others can improve their strength through the restrictions of the rules, then we can do the same, if we need money, let me be responsible for solving it."
Chu Qi said with a smile.
"Good! Very energetic! You are all so motivated, as a coach I can't be lazy, stay up late this week to help you adjust your tactics! β
Seeing that everyone was not devastated by this bad news, Li Sen couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised.
Similarly, seeing that the atmosphere was no longer sluggish, Jiang Yifan dared to raise his hand weakly, and sneered with a slight embarrassment:
"That, I want to say bad news, my snake master had a little accident on this trip to southern Xinjiang, and I guess I won't be able to play this week..."
