In the commercial street of Shuzhou City, in a hotel called Shuxiangge, Li Baichuan and Xiao Changshan, deputy director of Tece, sat in a quiet private room, drinking and chatting.

Shuxiang Pavilion is a very famous restaurant in Shuzhou, and it is a private dish that is not open to the public, and it must be booked in advance through personal relations, so it is often difficult to find.

Xiao Changshan took the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp, and sighed: "Hey, you are not in Shuzhou in the past ten years, Lao Li, it is difficult for me to find a drinking friend alone!"

Li Baichuan glanced at Xiao Changshan: "You are already alone, and if you want to find someone to drink, you don't want to raise your arms and shout, and there are many responders." ”

Xiao Changshan's eyes glared: "You guy, you have been sent to the ravine for ten years, and you still haven't changed this yin and yang weirdness." ”

Li Baichuan smiled: "Born, I can't change it." ”

Xiao Changshan frowned and glanced at him: "You stayed in that broken ravine in Bashan City for ten years, and you really stopped cultivating and let the ability completely dissipate?"

Li Baichuan nodded: "If it weren't for this, Tan Yu wouldn't have let me go so easily." ”

Xiao Changshan sighed: "What's the pain?" ”

Li Baichuan glanced at Xiao Changshan: "Do you want to pretend that you don't know anything, and let the things in the Dujiang ruins be forgotten by everyone?"

Xiao Changshan sighed: "Lao Li, how are you talking, I'm a dragger, I can't be as impulsive as you!"

"You guy still can't forget what happened at the beginning, Tan Yu is the chief of the special policy, what good is it for you to do it against him!"

Li Baichuan picked up the flask and poured wine: "It's not good, but whether it's good or not for me to do things, I just want to have a clear conscience." ”

Xiao Changshan's face was a little embarrassed, and then he laughed twice: "It's been seven years and I haven't been able to polish your temper, no wonder you dared to do it to Tan Yu in public, hahaha!"

Li Baichuan took the wine glass and drank it all: "The only thing I regret is that I started too lightly at that time, and only knocked out one of his front teeth." ”

Xiao Changshan suddenly laughed out loud, leaning forward and closing back a little breathlessly: "Don't mention that front tooth, now every time I report to him in person, I have to hold back my laughter desperately when I see his dentures, you have made me miserable all these years!"

Li Baichuan was also amused, and the two of them laughed at each other for a long time, making the waiter waiting outside the door look dazed, not knowing what the situation of these two guests was.

Xiao Changshan laughed for a while and then stopped, looking at Li Baichuan: "You really don't plan to come back? Back then, the two of us were Texe's 'mountain and river combination', the best partner!"

"What can you do in a small place like Bashan City, isn't it a waste of life?"

Li Baichuan sighed: "Returning to the Tece headquarters is equivalent to returning to Tan Yu's nose, then you can't do anything, although Bashan City is a small place, but at least I have enough freedom to do some things I want to do." ”

Xiao Changshan's brows furrowed: "You kid, are you still planning something?" It's been ten years since the Dujiang ruins, and now there are all newcomers in Texe, and there are not a few left, so don't drill the horns anymore~"

Li Baichuan shook his head: "Others may forget, but I can't forget, I still remember the names of those who died at that time, and one day, I will engrave these names on that monument." ”

"The Dujiang Ruins incident ten years ago caused such a great sacrifice, Tan Yu, as the chief of Shuzhou's special policy, must take responsibility!"

Xiao Changshan sighed: "It's useless, Tan Yu's hands and eyes are all over the sky! So many people died back then, and it didn't have any impact on his black gauze hat, and now that ten years have passed, let alone think about it." ”

"I've already arranged for you this time, don't make a fuss, as long as some of these students you bring have passed the final selection, I can find a reason to help you operate and let you go back to the headquarters!"

Li Baichuan chuckled: "Don't worry about me, you have risen very fast in the past few years, how did you survive under Tan Yu's hands?"

Xiao Changshan sighed: "It's just a job, I'm not like you who are alone, a big family is waiting for me to raise!"

Li Baichuan smiled: "Your son should be in his third year of high school this year, how is his roots, is he going to participate in the final election this year?"

Speaking of his son, Xiao Changshan's tone naturally brought a little smugness: "It's okay! Those who have just broken through to the C-level ability will strive to pass the final selection of the spirit this time, but I don't plan to let him go to the Qingbei Spiritual Energy Academy, I plan to send him to an overseas Ivy League Academy." ”

Li Baichuan sighed: "You guy, why are you planning to send the child abroad?"

Xiao Changshan sighed: "You also know, if you sit at a high level like me, you must avoid suspicion, if your son is sent to the Spiritual Energy Academy, someone will definitely gossip." ”

After speaking, Xiao Changshan sighed proudly: "Anyway, my son, who has inherited my excellent genes, will definitely be able to make a difference whether at home or abroad!"

Li Baichuan smiled: "You can't inherit anything else except fat!"

The two of them pushed and shoved again, arguing and laughing, as if they had returned to the era of their partners.

After a while, Li Baichuan stopped: "You are in charge of this spirit selection, right?"

Xiao Fatzi nodded: "Tan Yu is named, but I am responsible for the specific operation." If I weren't responsible, I would have given you 50 million for the primary election?"

Li Baichuan nodded: "Then you first reveal some information about the final election to me." ”

Xiao Changshan smacked his lips: "Lao Li, you want me to make a mistake! Do you know that just because of this final selection of the Soul Appreciation, the gifts given to me by various martial arts families have been piled up outside the gate!"

"I don't have a gift for you, you can talk about it or not. ”

The fat man Xiao Changshan glanced outside the door, and after making sure that there was no one, he lowered his voice and spoke: "There is a very big change this year, and a spiritual power test has been added before the opening of the election. ”

Li Baichuan's face suddenly changed slightly: "Spiritual power test?

Xiao Changshan nodded: "The year before last, I got a formation in a secret realm, which can seal the spiritual power in the human body, and according to the resistance of the people in the formation, the approximate spiritual power strength can be evaluated. ”

Li Baichuan still frowned: "Why do you want to test spiritual power, the spiritual cultivation class will officially start after entering the spiritual energy academy, and these students only know a little about spiritual power." ”

Xiao Changshan sighed: "Because the number of people who participated in the final election this year was close to four hundred, which greatly exceeded expectations, Tan Yu asked for this test to be added on a whim, and planned to eliminate half of the people." ”

Li Baichuan couldn't help but scold: "Tan Yu, this guy likes to do this kind of messy thing! These children have traveled thousands of miles to Shuzhou, and they are not even qualified to participate in the final election, which is too much!"

Li Baichuan's face showed a look of doubt: "It's impossible for this guy Tan Yu to do things that are not beneficial, is there any inside story about this spiritual power test?"

The fat man Xiao Changshan coughed: "You are really not easy to fool, this spiritual pressure test, those who have real skills should be able to pass, and those who don't have real skills can also have a good relationship." ”

"The unlucky ones should be those students who have average skills and have no money to do it. ”

With a bang, Li Baichuan slammed his fist on the table: "Bastard! Such an important activity of Jianling selection was made miasma by him!"

"You're willing to help the abuse!"

The fat man Xiao Changshan's face was a little embarrassed: "I'm just a part-time worker, what can I do! It's a big deal, I'll operate it then, and make it convenient for your students~"

Li Baichuan didn't have much to do with his sleek classmate, so he shook his head helplessly: "Don't forget what you said today." ”
