Chapter 118: The Witch's Charm
Chen Haiyang, the hall master of the Holy Sword Hall, had an argument with a new disciple in the public area, and in a hurry, he couldn't help but burst into foul language.
The newcomer shouted angrily: "If you have the ability, you can scold again." Lao Chen naturally did as he wished.
Unbeknownst to him, this guy actually used a photograph stone to write down the second insult and complain to the headquarters and branches.
Everyone only regarded this matter as an after-dinner conversation, but the final punishment issued by the headquarters was actually the removal of Chen Haiyang's position as the hall master.
Everyone was dumbfounded, why didn't Liu Yangjun protect him? At this time, he realized that the Great Elder must have been dissatisfied with him for a long time and wanted to take the opportunity to change people.
The opportunity for promotion fell on Jin Ziming's head inexplicably, because he had enough qualifications, good performance, and justification.
The only problem is that according to the convention, the master of the branch hall needs to at least be cultivated by the Yuan Infant.
However, with Jin Ziming's convincing combat power, coupled with the timely assistance of the Terran advance team, he was awarded a golden special merit medal.
After Liu Yangjun's special explanation, this problem is no longer a problem, and Jin Ziming has actually become the biggest winner of this farce.
At the beginning of his tenure, he encountered a major challenge, Juxingmen was the largest customer, and he was called by Elder Ning Xiu, who was in charge of mining planning in his branch.
This middle-aged man with a polite temperament is an upstart in the sect, and his future is limitless.
Ning Xiu motioned for him to close the door, and then said earnestly:
"Ziming, although we haven't known each other for a long time, I have a good sense of you.
You are a new official, do you want to make your business bigger? ”
"Of course I do, Elder Ning, I still need you to take care of your business."
"Then let's talk openly today, don't worry, I have a protective formation in this room, and the Shadow Stone and the Transmission Note are useless here."
金梓明 suddenly became alert, and said:
"Please also ask Elder Ning for advice."
"What do you think of the Master of Gongjian Hall?"
"I don't have much contact with Master Wentang, so I don't know what to say." Jin Ziming replied cautiously.
"Lao Wen, I think the ability is still good, but it's a little aggressive, and it's easy to have an accident."
"Well, business stability is really important."
Jin Ziming echoed painlessly.
"Recently, there was a major accident in the Mangshan mining area of Cangyuan City, many people died, and a lot of equipment was damaged, do you know?"
"That mining area is mainly being built by the Lingyun Sect and Qingyumen, I heard about it a few days ago."
"I don't think the two of you are primarily responsible for this accident.
Gongjiantang is extremely aggressive, forcing you to keep speeding up the progress, and you don't care about quality and safety at all.
Lao Wen is very responsible, what do you think? Ning Xiu inspired.
"Elder Ning, I don't dare to comment at will."
Seeing that Jin Ziming was not on the road, Ning Xiu was patient and tempted:
"You don't have to break your teeth and take responsibility for the accident yourself.
If you come to the branch to complain, make it clear that Lao Wen forced you to rush to work.
I believe that both the Great Elder and I will make decisions for you. ”
Jin Ziming finally understood that this was an infighting among the high-level leaders of Juxingmen, and the other party wanted him to hand over a knife to help him cut down his old enemy.
"But Hall Master Wen didn't tell me that."
Jin Ziming spread out his hand with a helpless expression.
Ning Xiu looked at him playfully, and said with a smile:
"Ziming, it doesn't matter if others say it or not, you say it, don't you just say it.
With the Great Elder and I supporting you, what are you afraid of?
You can rest assured that you will not be retaliated against for this.
I'm here to help you win in those big and competitive projects, and it's a reward for helping us improve our internal style. ”
Seeing that the other party had made his words clear without concealment, Jin Ziming fell into deep thought.
Ning Xiu was not in a hurry, smiling and waiting for a reply.
After a long time, Jin Ziming made a decision, his eyes were clear and firm, and he said:
"Elder Ning, I have just been promoted, and I really want to do business.
But I can't do it, and if I say that, I'm sure you'll guard against me in the future, and what if I do this to you one day?
Therefore, I can only guarantee with personality that except for the two of us, the content of today's conversation will never enter the ears of a third person. ”
Jin Ziming no longer had scruples, and looked at Ning Xiu calmly.
If the sect doesn't understand its own behavior, then it's a big deal to leave and return to the previous state of casual cultivation.
At least the Dao heart is maintained, and it will not affect future cultivation.
Moreover, according to his analysis, whether it is from the culture of the Lingyun faction or from the relationship between himself and Liu Yangjun, he should not be angry with him.
Ning Xiu definitely didn't dare to complain to them, at most, he would make things difficult on the project, but if the other party did too much, he could also fight back.
Elder Ning was stunned, he didn't expect him to reject himself so frankly and bluntly, and sighed after a little groaning:
"Ziming, since this is the case, I don't force it.
Then if we don't have this conversation, don't worry, I won't embarrass you. ”
Jin Ziming left the Juxing Gate and didn't think about whether the Qingyu Gate would cooperate with Elder Ning.
Since you have chosen this path, you will suffer the corresponding pain and suffering.
The battle between the two clans of the demons is becoming more and more imminent, and there have been many battles in history, and only three times have dispatched detached half-immortals or seventh-order demon beasts.
But judging from the information that Jin Ziming and the others brought back, the demon clan was actually using a phoenix demon pill to help the descendants of a divine beast Dapeng to try to "resurrect" an ancient beast of the seventh order or even higher realm.
It is conceivable that after the seizure, the Dapeng will definitely not be able to reach the strength of the seventh order, but it is likely to surpass the sixth order.
The Joint Headquarters of Monks issued a conscription order, giving targets to the seven super sects, requiring different numbers of monks of all levels to be recruited from the first to the fourth level of the subordinate sects.
And it is noted that this is a bottom-line figure, which must be guaranteed, and if the war is unfavorable, it will continue to be recruited.
During the Qi refining period, logistics were in charge, and during the foundation building period, they were stationed within the city walls, and the battle was undertaken by monks above the Jindan period.
Jin Ziming's injuries have healed, and as a combat hero of the advance team, coupled with his extreme familiarity with the forest, he naturally has to enlist in the army.
He got the news one after another that his friends were coming to the front.
Yimao joined the Thousand Buddha Island, cultivated to break through to the late stage of Jindan, and has been recruited.
Chu Qingfan was already in the war zone, Guangliang and Mu Yan were on the way here, and Ye Ranyi and Lin Xi would also arrive, Jin Ziming was overjoyed, but also felt big.
Now the entire cultivation realm is sending additional troops in the direction of Thundering City, and Great Elder Liu Yangjun's strength is to grasp business, and he is not good at fighting.
Based on the battle situation, the Lingyun faction decided to transfer him to other branches, and at the same time sent Tao Xianyao, who was skilled in combat, to take charge of the Thundering Branch.
Elder Tao is in the late stage of the merger realm, much higher than the previous cultivator, and his management style is naturally very different.
Tao Xianyao asked each hall to transfer the business to the elders and disciples who were weaker in combat, and identify those who could fight and form a thundering clan.
After the arrival of the personnel from the headquarters and various localities, as well as the personnel of the lower-level sects, the Lingyun Faction Operations Committee was formally established.
The monks of Thundering City were gathered, and it was already overcrowded, and the joint headquarters began to build the city wall in the wilderness between the Demon Forest and the Demon Beast Forest.
It is said that a new city will be built there, named "Demon Rejection City".
Jin Ziming was familiar with the situation and had strong coordination skills, so he was temporarily left in Leiming to assist the rugged Gao Tang Lord, who had just withdrawn from the front line, to take care of various affairs.
Elder Tao led the team to set off and set up camp in Xincheng to reorganize the team.
The heavy reception and resource deployment work kept Jin Ziming very busy.
After Mu Yan arrived, she was arranged to manage logistics, and Guangliang was transferred to her command by Jin Ziming.
Immediately after, the witch arrived.
Jin Ziming was invited to a lakeside restaurant in the city for a date, and under the sunset, the waves were sparkling, and layers of emerald green floated in the blue waves.
The crystal water droplets are bright and bright, and the lotus leaves are like a small jasper umbrella, setting off the red of the petals, wafting a pleasant fragrance.
A flock of ducks are playing leisurely in the water, occasionally a few frogs chirping, not looking noisy, but singing about the rare peace before the war.
The sunlight sprinkled on Lin Xi's bright face and graceful body, golden and black intertwined, forming a beautiful picture.
She crossed her legs and looked at the lake in a daze, as if sensing the approach of her sweetheart, and turned her head.
She is still dressed in short hair and boots when she first met, heroic, charming and moving, it seems that there is no change, but she feels that she has changed a lot.
To be precise, it's still her, but it contains a variety of changes.
It is a combination of heroic, delicate, mysterious, gentle, dignified, charming and magical, and even a touch of exoticism.
A black kitten with scarlet ears and shiny fur crouched on her shoulder, sometimes jumping on her lap.
The long tail is agile, and the eyes are blue, adding a bit of charm to the master.
She sat there quietly, not speaking, but smiling at him, her lips slightly open, as if to tell her feelings and sorrows.
Jin Ziming was completely stunned, and his mind went blank and walked to sit down opposite her.
"Jinzi, I haven't seen you for so long, why don't you speak?" Lin Xi smiled crooked into the corner of his eyes.
"Well, this, Lin Xi, how do I feel that you have changed so much?"
Jin Ziming asked embarrassedly.
"How's it going, is it pretty, is it charming?" Lin Xi seemed to be smiling.
"Well, it's good-looking, it's charming." Jin Ziming replied honestly.
Lin Xi smiled, at first he was still reserved and coquettish, then laughed, until he bent over.
It took a long time to calm down, and finally returned to Jin Ziming's familiar look, and said:
"If you don't come again, I won't be able to collapse, this set of 'charming' magic skills taught by Aunt Yun is not easy to practice, it is very annoying to use, and I can't last long."
"I said, why do you feel different, there is still this kind of exercise?
Occasionally, it feels pretty good. Jin Ziming couldn't help but encourage.
"Okay, let's see the mood of the old lady in the future."
The beauty has already ordered the dish, with fresh water chestnut and authentic rice wine, in the face of such a beautiful scenery, and accompanied by a stunning witch, how can you not be happy?
"Lin Xi, how did you practice the 'escape' that you gave you last time?"
The reckless man finally came to his senses.
