The early morning sun fell in the middle of the city.

The slippery ice pick at the bottom of the wall had become much smaller, only a little finger-sized.

Chen Mu was wearing a dark green errand suit, followed by a few errands, walking on the spacious main street in Wutong, and could see that there was still a small amount of snow between the streets and alleys that had not melted, but most of the places had been cleaned.

"Mission-sama."

"Mission-sama."

There were passers-by along the way, and when they saw Chen Mu, they all hurriedly saluted respectfully.

If before this year, the people of Li Shu in Wutong were mostly afraid of Chen Mu, the new secretary of the city guard, then now they are more in awe, just dispatching people and horses to help the victims, so that the bottom of the entire Wutong is spreading the good of Chen Mu, the new secretary of the master.

"It looks like in a few days, and the snow will melt."

Chen Mu inspected the streets and alleys, and spoke peacefully to Shang Qinglai and the others who were following beside him.

Shang Qinglai said: "The next day will be warmer, this cold winter is over, I heard that on the moat in the west, the ice has been broken, and some painting boat businesses have begun to recruit customers." ”

After saying this, he suddenly felt a little speechless, and couldn't help but glance at Chen Mu cautiously.

Chen Mu doesn't care, painting boats, singing and dancing, hooking columns and listening to music, there are always people who like it, as long as it is not a business of forced buying and selling, then there is nothing.

Speaking of which.

In the past, he still had some fun, but as his strength and status gradually improved, he slowly faded, although he had socialized a few times and experienced it twice.

took Shang Qinglai and others to inspect a piece of streets and alleys and markets, and then Chen Mu dismissed everyone and returned home.

In the backyard.

Two little girls are frolicking, happily chasing back and forth.

When Chen Mu walked in, the oncoming Ku'er couldn't dodge and hit him head-on.

"Old ...... Lord......"

The bitter child who hit this time only felt as if he had hit the wall, but after seeing Chen Mu clearly, he was even more startled and hurriedly knelt down.

Chen Mu raised his face and said, "Reckless, go to Nier's to get five palm plates." ”

"Yes......"

Ku'er's little face answered bitterly and went to the house.

Chen Mu shook his head, if Chen Yue was here, it is estimated that he would be too accustomed to the little maid around him, and he would only touch the master with a few palms lightly, but he really didn't want to punish this little girl, just so as not to spoil him too much, he still had to take care of it a little.

However, the few little maids in his yard, although they are not very old, are all sensible and well-behaved.

"Sir."

The joy of chasing with the bitter child also weakly saluted Chen Mu at this time.

Chen Mu raised his hand, tapped lightly on her forehead, and then walked by: "Okay, get up, go boil some water." ”

Go back to your bedroom.

Chen Mu took out the Black Jade Yijin Pill from the cabinet.

After nearly two months, this Yijin Pill is still the size of a baby's fist, but the color on it is no longer that deep black, but has become much darker.

This shows that the medicinal power inside it has been squeezed and almost exhausted, and it is gradually transformed into medicine residue.

"It can probably be used for about ten days."

Chen Mu looked at it carefully.

He has already entered the level of Yi Jin, and in the follow-up training, Yi Jin Pill is no longer a necessity, without the blood of Hei Jiao, it is equally effective to gather several other medicines to scatter and boil, of course, Yi Jin Pill is always one of the most effective medicinal materials, but Chen Mu has not been able to get the second Black Jade Yi Jin Pill recently.

With a movement of his mind, he summoned the system interface.

【Black Jade Easy Tendon Method (45%)】

[Experience: 8 points]

Since the Black Jade Easy Tendon Method has reached more than 30% and crossed the watershed of Easy Tendon Xiaocheng, the subsequent improvement progress has become a little slower, and it takes 20 experience points to increase by one percent.

Chen Mu was not surprised by this, after all, the higher the strength and the greater the difficulty of quenching the body, otherwise, there would not be so few people like him who have practiced the limit of skin grinding and flesh training, and boiled out a golden body.

Even so, his cultivation progress was still quite fast, but in just over a month, it had increased from thirty percent to forty-five percent, and Yi Jin had completed nearly half of it.

In fact, with the improvement process of Yi Jin, his strength can be said to have grown every day, and the accumulation is quite a considerable change, but on the other hand, there is no change in the martial arts artistic conception before he has made up enough experience points.

"It is estimated that there will be one more month at most, and we will be able to enter the success of Yijin, and then the success of Yijin."

Chen Mu turned off the system panel.

With his physique and martial arts artistic conception, when he stepped into the Yijin Dacheng, he was sure to compare with the kind of bone-forging martial artists who had never mastered the artistic conception, and when the Yijin was perfect, the bone-forging was actually in front of him.

Ignoring the 'viscera' realm bigwigs behind the scenes of the four major families in the inner city, in fact, mastering the artistic conception and stepping into the forging of bones, it has reached the top of Yucheng in the true sense.

Outer City Division!

Slay the demon Siduji!

Yucheng is the capital!

All the real high-ranking and powerful people are in that realm.

Chen Mu has never made another move since he killed the evil knife Zhang He of the Wicked Gang last time, he has always acted steadily, he is unambiguous when he should strike, and he will not deliberately show off when he should hide.

Boil water, boil medicine, easy tendons.

After completing the practice of quenching the body according to the custom, he threw himself into the meditation of the 'Thunder Diagram' and sat in his bedroom until the evening.

I thought that this day would pass as usual, but just when Chen Mu came back to his senses, gathered his mind and walked out of the door, ready to call someone to prepare a meal, suddenly a small servant in the front yard came to report.

"Master, Liu Song is here."

Chen Mu's expression moved slightly, and he said, "Call in." ”

Now Liu Song still holds the position of an errand officer in the City Guard Division, but secretly according to his orders, he organized some people to be responsible for listening to various news.

This is also learned from Min Baoyi, while Min Baoyi is in charge of the city guard division in Jiutiaoli, he also has a group of eyeliner to know what is happening everywhere at any time, and cooperate with the city guard division in the light and dark.

Soon.

Liu Song's figure came to the courtyard, and after coming over in a hurry, he quickly reported a few things to Chen Mu.

After hearing this, Chen Mu frowned slightly, and said, "Is there any news from the general department?" ”

Liu Song shook his head.

After Chen Mu pondered for a short time, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, I know." ”

For more than a month, he has been safe and sound in Wutong, whether it is disaster relief or other matters, there is no hindrance, I only heard that there are a lot of fights in the open and in the secret on the side of the general department, He Mingxuan took advantage of Xu Hongyu's absence to think about tossing something, but he was pressed by Xiaohe.

This time, the matter was still not directed at him, but at Xiaohe, compared to his errand, He Mingxuan obviously wanted to move Xiaohe away completely.

It's just that.

This time the situation is probably very unfavorable to Xiaohe, but Xiaohe did not inform him, he should want to deal with it himself.

But in any case, since he knew, he would not turn a blind eye, and it happened that there was nothing to do at the moment, so he would secretly go over and see.

……

The westernmost shore of Wutong Lane.

Moat.

There are still some broken ice on the river, and it is not yet possible to sail, but some of the boats have already opened, and by this time it is already dark, and several of the boats are brightly lit.

Because the moat itself does not belong to the west of the city, nor does it belong to the south of the city, and does not belong to the jurisdiction of any party, so the boat painting boat and the Goolan gambling house are very prosperous here, and now the cold winter has not completely passed, and a small part has been opened.

The background of these boats and boats basically leads directly to the inner city, and it is not only the squires and lords in the south and west who come here to enjoy it, but also the dignitaries and dignitaries from the inner city.

One of the buildings is in the boat.

In a brightly lit cabin, all kinds of luxurious and exquisite decorations, the most striking thing is the four red beads inlaid around the room, constantly emitting visible heat, making the whole room full of warmth, obviously the ice and snow outside have not completely melted, but here seems to have entered a warm spring.

Several women wearing light veils and beautiful figures danced their waists to the sound of the ringing, and it was extremely luxurious as far as the eye could see.

He Mingxuan sat in the corner of the room.

But he is not in the main seat, it seems that he is just a foil, talking and laughing from time to time.

Surrounded by He Mingxuan and several characters who looked like sons and brothers, it was a young man about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, who hugged a girl casually, took a sip of the wine cup, put the wine cup next to the girl's cheek, and dripped out a drop of the red wine inside.

The girl did not dare to resist and drank this drop of wine, but before it fell into her mouth, her whole body trembled, and in a slight tremor, her forehead was hot and visible to the naked eye.

The young man laughed and threw the girl away, and the girl hurriedly wanted to go out, but she couldn't get up, and barely climbed two steps before falling to the ground.

"This Huoyun wine is really strong, this one brought by Brother Xue seems to be wonderful?"

He Mingxuan said with a smile.

The young man he called 'Brother Xue' grinned and said, "Yes, a few days ago, I happened to hunt a red demon snake, so I refined a few jars of Huoyun new wine with his demon guts, and the wine power is several times higher than the usual Huoyun wine. ”

Everyone next to him complimented one after another, saying many flattering words, and looked at the young man with a little awe in their eyes.

Xue Lin!

Among the fourth generation of the Xue family, the most outstanding existence is not only the leader of the younger generation of the Xue family, but also the younger generation of several other families in the inner city, and he is the first person who deserves it.

Now it is the deputy capital of the Inner City Demon Slaying Division, and it is an existence that has already entered the bone forging realm.

Not to mention He Mingxuan, even if they are the more core of the He family, they are a head shorter in front of Xue Lin, and they can't compete with him.

At this time.

In addition to Xue Lin and He Mingxuan and others, there was also a young man about twenty years old, who seemed to be a little similar to Xiaohe, but the whole person was very embarrassed, soaked with ice water all over his body, and even tied by ropes, kneeling not far away, trembling constantly.

Neither Xue Lin nor the others looked at him at all, only He Mingxuan's occasional afterglow flashed and a sneer flashed.

Ninghe ......

It's just a subordinate who follows Xu Hongyu, but he dares to go against him everywhere, how are you going to end up today?

Speaking of today's incident, it was also an accident, he was just accompanying Xue Lin to enjoy the painting boat, but he happened to meet Ning He's younger brother Ning Yu, and after a little design, Ning Yu fell on the set and directly offended Xue Lin!

Ning He held power for Xu Hongyu, which was indeed difficult for him to deal with, but Ning He was surnamed Ning instead of Yu after all.

Finally.

The end of the song.

The door of the painting boat was pushed open, and a person walked slowly, her face was slightly calm, and she was wearing a plain gray casual dress, which was Xu Hongyu's maid Xiaohe.

"Sister......

Ning Yu, who was tied to the ground by hemp rope, saw Xiaohe come in, with a look of shame on his face, buried his head deeply, and clenched his fists.

He knew that he had been involved with Ning He today.

He didn't even want Ning He to come to save him, but Ning He had already come, and all he could do at this time was to keep his head down and not add more chaos.

Xiaohe's eyes quickly swept over the field, saw He Mingxuan, and also saw his younger brother Ning Yu, but they didn't stop, and finally their eyes only fell on Xue Lin's body, and he stepped forward and bowed.

"The folk girl Ning He, I have seen Lord Xue of the Demon Slayer."
