"Brother Qiu, what does this mean?"

In the front yard of Xiaoqingguan, the wooden table that was originally placed in the kitchen for eating was placed against the wall, and the stool was also moved, Jiang Chou looked at Qiu Xu who was sitting opposite, frowning very tightly.

On his left hand, Tang Qigongzi sat in the innermost part with Erlang's legs crossed, his back against the wall, squinting at the slightly yellowed document in his hand, the expression on his face was between frivolous and dignified.

The sky was cloudless in the afternoon, and the gentle breeze was blowing slowly, Qiu Xu sat up straight on the bench, looked at Jiang Chou and said seriously: "Brother Jiang, this is the notice I just received, Bai Yujing of Suling County will conduct a sect inspection of Xiaoqingguan in three days. If the review is not passed, Xiaoqingguan will be directly owned by Tianhexuan after the consent of Zhongtongmen. ”

He paused, frowned on his white face, and said in a deep voice: "And I, as the only silver medal patrol in Qinghe County, need to cooperate with the actions of my superior Bai Yujing throughout the whole process and conduct some routine inspections of Xiao Qingguan in advance. ”

As for why it wasn't Yan Wenkang who came, Qiu Xu thought of the moment the old man heard the news, he held his forehead and fell to the ground in a coma with a sweaty face, and thought that his experience was far from enough.

Maybe it was because he felt that Tianhe Xuan was a little ghostly, or maybe it was just because today's such a good weather, such a good day, such a good mood was about to be shattered by these bad things, Jiang Chou's face was obviously unhappy.

But Qiu Xu's doing this is also the responsibility of others, what can Jiang Chou say?

So he looked at Tang Qigongzi, frowned, and said, "Brother Tang, what are you doing here?" ”

Tang Qigongzi spread his hands and pretended to be wronged: "Conscience of heaven and earth, Brother Jiang, your words are a little hurtful." I've been here a few times, but this is the first time I've come. ”

Jiang Chou realized that this was indeed the first time that Tang Qigongzi had come to Xiaoqingguan as a guest, although Qiu Xu's previous visit was also a little far from being a guest......

He knew that it was a little unreasonable to send the slight anger in his heart to Tang Qigongzi, and just as he was about to apologize, he saw Tang Qigongzi waving his hand, his long legs around the bench, looking at him with a smile and saying, "But I can't ask for it to be Brother Jiang's punching bag." After all, this shows that Brother Jiang doesn't treat me as an outsider......"

Aunt Mei, who was standing alone outside the door as a bodyguard, was already accustomed to Tang Qigongzi becoming equal and even a little humble in front of Jiang Chou, raised her head lightly, and looked at the deep pit not far in front of her with some curiosity.

……

"Isn't the sect check at the end of the year? It's not April yet. Jiang Chou frowned and got back to the point, "This is not in accordance with the rules, right?" ”

The sect inspection is no stranger to Jiang Chou now, as early as the beginning of the conflict with Zhongtongmen, he had a general understanding of the entire inspection process under the explanation of Jun Jue.

First of all, each sect will write a ten-year summary by itself, and the demons that have been descended by the sect in the past ten years, the magic weapons forged, the elixirs refined, the disciples cultivated, and the number of people in each realm will be ...... and so on, all of which were summarized and counted to form a complete dossier and handed over to Bai Yujing, who was cross-checked by Bai Yujing and the imperial court.

For a giant like the Twelfth Floor and Five Cities, the ten-year summary file will be sorted out and written from the beginning of this year, but for Xiao Qingguan, it can be written in just a few strokes.

Then, in the process of reviewing the file, if Bai Yujing feels that there is a discrepancy between what is written in the file and the actual situation of the sect, he will record it, and when all the questions are summarized, he will enter the second link - the book conference.

This link is simply not much different from the trial of prisoners, it is nothing more than questioning the head of the sect on various matters and standards. The duration of the whole book review link is uncertain, in short, either convince Bai Yujing or surrender.

The end of surrender is often to order rectification, and more seriously, it is directly sealed and owned by the upper sect.

Because of this, you often have to face not only Bai Yujing, but also your subordinate sect in the book matching link.

In fact, Jiang Chou and Xiaoqing's audience have been working hard for the past few days, so that they can pass the sect inspection at the end of the year and make Xiaoqingguan independent.

Expand the Dan pharmacy, armory, and exercise building, reclaim the spiritual field, improve the strength of the people, and build a large array of protectors...... All of this will be used as Xiao Qingguan's business performance in the sect inspection, and it can be said that everything Jiang Chou and others do will help Xiao Qingguan have more hope of independence at the end of the year.

But only if it ...... There is plenty of time.

It will take several months to expand the house, and the cultivation of Xiao Yaomai will not be until autumn, and the improvement of everyone's strength will not happen overnight, how can the sword formation left by Emperor Shihuang be completed in a short time......

By the end of the year, it is expected that all of this will be a sea change.

But...... Qiu Xu brought the news that the sect inspection would start in three days, but it was too late.

Obviously there is hope, but he was intercepted halfway, which is very uncomfortable.

"Don't think about it, someone must have done it." Tang Qigongzi's eyes narrowed, and he said slowly, "Even if the sect checks, it is difficult for a small sect like Xiaoqingguan to ensure absolute fairness and justice, and this kind of early death sentence is not the first time it has happened. ”

Jiang Chou's right hand was slowly clenched, and the only person who could do this and had a conflict with Xiao Qingguan was Tian Baohe.

Thinking of the front and back, up and down the mountain, Jun Jue and each of them were still trying to do their own thing, Jiang Chou's eyes narrowed more and more, and he couldn't imagine what kind of expression Chonglou would have on their faces when the newly expanded Xiao Qingguan fell into the hands of others.

Along the way, he has become accustomed to Xiaoqingguan having them.

It must not be dispersed.

"Xiao Qingguan will definitely be independent." Jiang Chou said suddenly.

Facing the puzzled gazes of Tang Qigongzi and Qiu Xu, Jiang Chou continued to say seriously: "I feel that I need your help. ”

Tang Qigongzi squinted slightly and didn't say anything, but Qiu Xu's brows furrowed, and said, "Brother Jiang, my position on this matter has been decided, I'm afraid I won't be able to help." ”

If Qiu Xu deliberately released water during the sect inspection, not to mention whether Qiu Xu himself would allow himself to do this, even if he did this, it would be a small matter to be removed from the silver medal after being discovered, and the identity of the heir of the shrine would be the most serious.

Jiang Chou looked at Qiu Xu, the expression on his face was unprecedentedly serious, and he said in a low voice: "Brother Qiu, listen to me." ”

"Although the sect's inspection is extremely strict, in fact, the most difficult thing is that the sect can't know which items in the file they have handed in before the book reconciliation conference, and they don't know which standards Bai Yujing will keep an eye on."

"But if you can know this news, it is not impossible to prepare in advance. And this is precisely where the advantages of Xiaoqingguan lie...... Because Xiaoqingguan is too small, there are not many items that can be used as a criterion for inspection. ”

The cool breeze gusted, and the light in Jiang Chou's eyes became more and more vigorous.

He picked up the paperwork he had just written, flipped to the opposite side of the blank, and picked up the pen next to him to write down four words.

"I've read "Contract", and for an unpopular sect like Xiaoqingguan, the most important review criteria are only these few."

Jiang Chou stretched out his hand and landed on the paper, and read word by word:

"Capital."

"Prestige."

"Contribute."

"Talent development."
