Chapter Forty-Eight: The New Celestial Master
At that time, Xu Changshou knocked down the sword in Princess Ziqing's hand with the help of fists, and the young man immediately got up and regained his rhythm.
Princess Ziqing suddenly felt a pain in her wrist, and before she could react, Xu Changshou had already escaped from her suppression.
Princess Ziqing glanced at Xu Changshou and said with a serious expression: "The skills are good, but it's a pity that in the face of absolute strength, the extra skills are in vain."
"The time has come, pass the assessment!" A celestial master in charge of holding the gong rang the gong in his hand, and the incense burned out and broke.
Looking at Princess Ziqing who was walking towards him, Xu Changshou's heart suddenly went up and down.
"Five moves have passed, you have lost!" Xu Changshou then added.
He then looked at Princess Ziqing, as if she had no intention of stopping.
Now Xu Changshou has once again fallen into a passive situation of being alone.
He thought for a moment, "The dignified princess of the Great Xia Kingdom, but also to kill people in the face?" ”
Xu Changshou first guessed, he knew what he would experience next. Although it is an assessment, it makes the princess of the dynasty so unbearable, he seems to have provoked someone who should not be provoked.
The adult girl rubbed her wrists, then bent down to pick up the sword that had just been shot down by Xu Changshou above the ground, and raised the sword towards him.
The adult girl's face was serious, which made Xu Changshou's heart go up and down.
Looking at Princess Ziqing, who was frowning in front of her, Xu Changshou swallowed his saliva.
"I'm done!"
……
Princess Ziqing stopped instantly, then raised her sword and pointed at the bridge of his nose.
"Xu Changshou, congratulations, you passed the assessment!" Princess Ziqing still had a cold face.
"That sword ...... at that time" For a while, Xu Changshou didn't know what was going on. At that time, Princess Ziqing threw a bronze waist card at him.
He then picked up the waist tag on the ground, which seemed to have something in common with the fish bags worn by those Celestial Masters, which was used to distinguish the rank of Celestial Master.
"The bronze medal, uh, should be the entry-level among the Celestial Masters."
At that time, I saw a few golden lights on the waist card in his hand, and then engraved the name of Xu Changshou on the originally bare card.
In addition to names and the like, there is also a column of things that he can't understand at all: "Points: ten"
Xu Changshou then rubbed his eyes, confirming that he was not dazzled before he was relieved.
After Princess Ziqing threw the waist card to him, she didn't speak again, but turned her head and left the venue, and most of the celestial masters who were watching the excitement also dispersed.
Xu Changshou grabbed the waist card, and then put it in his hand and tinkered. I saw a hand quietly snatch his waist card.
"Hillbilly, that's not how the waist card is used!"
Xu Changshou turned to look at the unruly girl in front of him, and then remembered the naughty girl who was making a lot of nonsense in the audience just now.
"Are you a Gu Master? Wrong...... The Great Xia Dynasty is the princess of Pingping! Xu Changshou saluted the girl respectfully.
The girl played with the waist card in her hand, and then looked at Xu Changshou who was bowing her eyebrows on the side.
"Good fight! This girl likes you very much. Zi Wanning looked at him with satisfaction! And then a smug face.
"It's been a long time since I've let her out, it's really relieving!" Zi Wanning couldn't help but think for a moment, and then she looked at the waist card in her hand that only had ten points.
"What? Ten taels of silver, what about sending it to be called a flower child? Zi Wanning looked at the waist card that emitted a golden light in her hand, and then looked incredulous.
"Can this thing store silver taels?" Xu Changshou felt that his worldview was refreshed again.
"Of course! That group of old men is really deductible, even if they are new heavenly masters, just ten taels of silver, isn't this a dispatch called Huazi? Zi Wanning threw the waist card to Xu Changshou with a disgusted face.
"What? Ten taels of silver! But I'm paid to be a dart master for a few months! ”
Xu Changshou felt very happy, but in Zi Wanning's opinion, the man in front of him was like a hillbilly entering the city.
"It seems that this waist card should be similar to the credit card I used in the past." Or more powerful, more like a storage card, because he can see the silver taels of white flowers in the bronze medal through the golden light on the bronze medal.
"As for points, they should just be a unit of measurement, or points mean the amount of silver taels that you can withdraw."
After a moment, Zi Wanning snapped her fingers, only to see a few Gu worms on the ground crawling towards her, and then all returned to her hands.
This operation made the old man who had just fiddled with the clay pot Gu worm on the ground sigh.
"Hairy girl, alas! The Gu worms that the old man had raised for months were gone! The old man's heart was full of complaints, but he swallowed helplessly.
Xu Changshou looked at the messy scene, and really admired this princess of Shengping.
"It seems that even in ancient times, the thing of spelling dad has always been in the same vein."
Zi Wanning turned his head and glanced at Xu Changshou, the young man was stunned, as we all know, being looked at by a woman like this, it is either love at first sight, or nine times out of ten, it is either auspicious or murderous. Some things seem harmless to humans and animals, but in fact, the blade is extremely sharp, and when you go out, the boy still has to protect himself, not to mention that the other party is still a Gu master.
After everyone present left, Xu Changshou officially became an ordinary heavenly master of the Demon Supervisor Division of Xuanlu Temple.
The only difference may be that he was specially invited by Master Lee. There are many celestial masters in Xuanlu Temple, and there are many people who have a lot of discussions.
"Did you think he came in through that connection?"
"What kind of relationship?"
"Through the back door?"
"Speak quiet! Let's take care of the adults' business! Beware of losing your head. ”
"Afraid of what? God knows, you know, I know, as long as you don't say it, who will know? ”
"I heard that Xu Changshou is the illegitimate child of an adult!"
"Huh? Tsk, there's this relationship! ”
At that time, the two Heavenly Masters guarding the door were chatting energetically, Xu Changshou walked to the door, coughed twice, and said: "Trouble the two to report, just say that the new Heavenly Master Xu Changshou came to meet the adult!" ”
As soon as they saw that it was the object of discussion, the two heavenly masters guarding the door were suddenly startled, and the gossip stopped abruptly.
"You wait!" One of the Celestial Masters pretended to be serious, and then knocked on the door behind him.
"My lord, the new Heavenly Master has come to meet your lord!"
After a moment of silence in the room, he replied, "This official is busy with official business, so tell him to come back in a while!" ”
"My lord, it's Xu Changshou!"
"Who?" The man groaned with some surprise.
"Xu Changshou? Call him in! The man replied in the affirmative. Later, the Heavenly Master pushed open the door, and Xu Changshou went in.
"Look! I'll just say that the rumors out there may be some truth. One of the Celestial Masters added, while one of the Celestial Masters nodded.
……
At this time, in a neatly arranged study, the middle-aged man Li Wu was really reviewing official documents. There are four treasures of the study on the table, and the walls are also flooded with all kinds of calligraphy works and landscape ink paintings, which shows that this Master Li is indeed a literati with high-quality cultivation.
Li Wuzhen, as the leader of Xuanlu Temple, is not only responsible for the internal and external affairs of Xuanlu Temple, but also has to worry about the saint's worries. There are many heavenly masters, Gu masters, warlocks, and talismans under Xuanlu Temple, although each profession has its own corresponding institutions to manage it, such as the Demon Supervision Department of the Heavenly Master General Administration, the Drug Supervision Department of the Pharmacist General Administration, etc., but for the number one Li Wuzhen, he is still powerless.
The middle-aged man rolled up his sleeves and lifted his pen, and then looked at the silver-robed Heavenly Master Xu Changshou who bowed his head to the side, he stroked his beard and looked at the year-old friend in front of him with satisfaction.
"This official heard that you broke through a strong enemy, and it was really not easy for you to resist the strong attack of Princess Ziqing's seven-rank Guyuan realm just by relying on your own nine-rank strength."
For Li Wuzhen's praise and affirmation, Xu Changshou said modestly: "Adults are as wise as torches, even if they are long insects, they can turn into dragons and soar, and the grass people have thanked the adults for their promotion." ”
Li Wuzhen suddenly felt a light on his face, and he couldn't stop laughing.
"360 degrees licking without dead ends, this is what you want, especially at an age like Lord Li who is hindered by his face." Xu Changshou said spontaneously.
After visiting the New Year's friend, Xu Changshou officially entered the job, and according to the schedule, it was his turn to keep vigil tonight. Recently, the Heavenly Festival has just ended, and strange things have happened frequently in Kyoto City, and the heavenly masters of Genrokuji Temple have naturally become night watchmen. It is mainly responsible for investigation and case handling.
The only difference is that the Celestial Master is in charge of the outer city, and the inner city does not need the Celestial Master, but because the vast majority of the inner city are dignitaries and royal relatives. The Great Xia Emperor specially placed the Praetorian Guards for the inner city, and the degree of vigilance was no less than that of the Celestial Master of Xuanlu Temple, or the best among the Celestial Masters.
But before he could do that, he needed to meet with two of his colleagues. Just like in the dart game, the dart game has a dart leader team, and the heavenly master will naturally have his own team.
Xu Changshou walked in the Xuanlu Temple, he subconsciously touched his pocket, and then took out something similar to a bracelet.
"I don't know if this works!"
"Hey! Can you hear ME? Feed? Xu Changshou raised the jade bracelet with one hand and shouted at the bracelet. Obviously, passers-by thought he was a fool, and the bracelet did not react at all.
"What tattered spirit bracelet?"
The spirit bracelet, containing the aura of heaven and earth, the treasure of the immortal family, each heavenly master will be given one by Xuanlu Temple when he becomes a heavenly master, and at the same time, it is extremely efficient as a tool for communication between heavenly masters.
When he was young, Xu Changshou complained for a moment, only to hear a slight voice from the bracelet: "Everyone come to a good meal and a gathering!" ”
After listening to the voice, Xu Changshou rushed to Yipinzhai.
"To be honest, this thing doesn't work as well as a phone." Xu Changshou did not forget to complain.
One product Zhai, one product in the world, one of the famous restaurants in Changping Street in Kyoto, Daxia. Regardless of whether the dignitaries or the common people, or the travelers, monks and knights, Yipinzhai has always pursued the same treatment, often giving to the poor and giving relief to the victims, so it is the best in the world, and is regarded as the first product in the world by the people of the summer capital.
On Changping Street, Xu Changshou looked at the towering plaque on his forehead and was afraid. He walked into the room of the restaurant, and then looked around, although it was a gathering of colleagues, but they had never met, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack. Xu Changshou then took out the spirit bracelet from his pocket, and quietly shouted a few times, seeing that no one answered, he even wondered if he had been deceived.
In my previous life, I was deceived a lot, although the online dating offline meeting overturned, but it was a person, this belonged to no news, and I couldn't find the beginning and the end.
On the second floor, Xu Changshou put down his sword, sat on a bench, held a neat square table with a pestle in his hand, and looked around.
"Little two on the wine!"
There was no one at that time, maybe it was early, so he decided to borrow wine to drown his sorrows and wait for a while.
