On the third day of the first month of August, just when Zhou Ang was pleased that he had sensed the opportunity to be promoted to the eighth rank, after being "imprisoned" in the county Zhu Yamen for more than ten days, Lu Jin finally went home.

This super big man looks full of energy, but other than that, he is not the slightest bit abnormal - but he looks very energetic.

Of course, it was impossible for him to tell Lu Chunsheng and his wife about becoming an official cultivator, and the excuse for calling them was that Lu Jin had official business and wanted to go out with him.

Seeing him come back, Lu Chunsheng and his daughter-in-law Lu Yuan couldn't care that their son was already a little rancid, so they took their hands and looked up and down, and muttered vigorously, "It's the first time I've been away from home for so long" and so on, and asked him where he had gone and what he had done.

Afraid that Lu Jin's mouth would be so stupid that he couldn't even make it up, Zhou Ang hurriedly interrupted, "Aunt Lu, this shouldn't be asked, Lu Jin can't answer you if you ask." It's business. ”

Lu Yuanshi suddenly understood when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, don't ask, don't ask anything." Mother doesn't ask anything, just come back! Go out, are you tired?"

Lu Jin shook his head with a smile, "Mother, I'm not tired." ”

"Do you miss your mother?"

"Yes. ”

“......”

Zhou Ang reluctantly let the two of them talk for a while, and then took the time to call Lu Jin to his study, and ordered him to close the door so that he could sit down peacefully and ask him, "How do you feel?"

Lu Jin smiled stupidly as usual, scratched his head, and said, "It's good." ”

This stupid boy.

Zhou Ang was helpless and asked directly: "Did you succeed?"

This time, Lu Jin understood, put away his smile, and replied seriously: "Mr. Ziyu said that I have become, that I have completed the enlightenment, and I am already a cultivator. ”

Zhou Ang finally laughed calmly, clapped his palms, and said, "Good!"

In June, Chen Fu officially completed the "enlightenment" and became the ninth official practitioner officially registered in the county Zhu Yamen, so now, Lu Jin is considered the tenth.

As for Zhou Ang's own identity, it is still a little unclear so far.

He receives his salary as a clerk, and his usual duty requirements are easier than those of official cultivators, but not to mention the county Zhu Yamen, in fact, even the Taizhu Temple in Chang'an now has a clear understanding that he is actually one of the official cultivators - but I don't know why, since the last time the head of the Taizhu Temple, Chen Wu, conducted a thorough investigation of himself through ecstasy, it is said that he has undoubtedly determined his origin, but until now, a month has passed, and there is still no official statement given there.

In other words, Zhou Ang's identity is still so confused.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, Zhou Ang didn't care much, and he didn't expect to go through the channel of an official cultivator to be promoted-after all, he was also Uncle Zheng Huan's nephew, and he had a complete set of elixir formulas handed down by Uncle Zheng in his hand, and he didn't need to turn to anyone for help in this regard.

Therefore, for Zhou Ang, as long as the official recognition of his identity, as long as the county Zhu Yamen's side and Guo Yuan's side can continue to "buy" the demon corpses he hunted, it will be fine.

Anyway, even after becoming an official cultivator, the salary won't increase much.

But that's just him, now that Lu Jin has officially become an official cultivator, and he entered through official channels, it is still quite a happy thing for Zhou Ang.

This is not simply for the sake of the strength of the county Zhu Yamen, but also because in this way, in addition to himself, the small family of the Zhou family and the Lu family has another layer of protection.

This is certainly something to celebrate.

So at noon that day, Zhou Ang didn't go to the yamen to eat, nor did he go to the backyard to eat with his mother and sister, so he asked Lu Yuan's to cook a few more dishes and bring them to the front yard. In the front yard, Zhou Ang drank some wine with Lu Chunsheng and Lu Jin's father and son, which was counted as a celebration.

Of course, I don't dare to drink too much.

Lu Chunsheng has things to take care of at home and abroad, and Zhou Ang and Lu Jin have to go to the yamen after dinner, so all they want is this atmosphere.

After waiting for dinner, Zhou Ang and Lu Jin, who were slightly drunk, went to the county Zhu Yamen, and after receiving unanimous congratulations from everyone, Du Yi actually came over in person to convey the news: There will be dinner in the Yamen in the evening to celebrate the joining of the eleventh official cultivator of the county Zhu Yamen!

This can be regarded as the practice of the county to wish the yamen!

When Chen opened the door successfully, there was also such a small celebration.

There is no shortage of money in the yamen, and there are no difficult cases recently, so of course everyone is happy to drink and have fun.

In fact, with each additional cultivator, the strength of the county wishing the yamen to increase by one point is something worth celebrating for every official cultivator who is in it.

Again, the monsters are often strong, and the secret sects are extremely cunning, everyone walks on this road, almost all the time to tie their heads to the waistband of their trousers, of course, I hope that the more help around them, the better-this is the opposite of the situation of the county government not far away, which is the same square not far away.

In the land of a county, the general power is so much, and if this power is assigned to you, it cannot be assigned to him, so everyone will of course be dominated by various complex internal struggles.

But on the side of the county Zhu Yamen, the direction of power and responsibilities is extremely narrow, that is, to deal with abnormal social conditions, and to put it bluntly, even power is just the power to fight.

This power belongs to every official practitioner.

............

Lu Jin, a newcomer, quickly got a copy of his own bookcase.

Unlike when Zhou Ang first came, he also faced a certain little cold reception, Lu Jin's joining was almost unanimously welcomed by everyone - there is obviously Zhou Ang's face in this.

However, just as there was a rare bustle in the official room, Fang Jun had to pull Lu Jin, a big man who was a newcomer, to watch them push pai gow, and another happy event arrived.

The reward for last month's performance appraisal has been handed out.

This time, it was not only the silver that was issued, but at the same time, there was also a notice of approval about Liu Rui's accumulation of meritorious deeds and his approval to be promoted to the eighth order—even the pills needed to be promoted to the eighth order were sent down together.

So everyone congratulated Liu Rui together, congratulating him on becoming the third and eighth order of the county Zhu Yamen!

Compared with this, the silver that Zhou Ang got in his hand became a trivial matter.

But in fact...... It's not a trivial matter.

Normally, the material reward given above for killing an eight-grade monster is generally between three hundred taels of silver and five hundred taels of silver, but this time, Xu is considering that the strength of the bear demon is really amazing, and the county Zhu Yamen was still killed with almost no injuries, which is even more commendable, so Chang'an Taizhu Temple personally approved and sent down a cash reward of up to seven hundred taels.

This money, of course, belongs entirely to Zhou Ang alone.

In this regard, the official cultivators who had already received a lot of light in the declaration of merit naturally did not have any opinions.

And in addition, when he killed the wolf demon, Zhou Ang more or less showed a little effort, and he had an extra ten taels of silver to take, so with this reward in place, he alone would get as much as seven hundred and ten taels of silver!

This naturally made the wallet in his hand deflated because of the purchase of the shop, and suddenly it was full again, and it was indeed a happy event, so Zhou Ang rarely donated generously and decided to privately sponsor the team building for ten taels of silver.

As soon as they heard this, everyone became more and more interested, and then, Liu Rui also decided to privately take out ten taels of silver and have fun with everyone - twenty taels of silver, which is enough to go to the big restaurant outside to eat, drink and listen to music.

So in the afternoon of the same day, a group of people went to Wangjiang Tower.

When I arrived at the place, the private room was opened, the wine and food were ordered, and the kabuki were also ordered.

And it's different from the last time Gao Jing invited Zhou Ang to dinner, that time with a little bit of a feeling of pretending, Gao Xianzhu wanted to trick Zhou Ang into the urn, but this time, it was purely a team building of old colleagues, and it was naturally open, plus Zhao Zhong and Zhao Jinxian were especially good at this, a few slang and sour songs were lit up, and the sandalwood was sung in a clear voice, and it didn't take long for everyone to get high.

At this time, the store actually came to spoil the fun, and a shopkeeper came in, saying that there was a distinguished guest next door, and it was too noisy here, and it had disturbed the cleanliness of others.

Everyone was on the rise, and when they heard this, they immediately became furious, especially Fang Jun, who was drinking at this time with a red face and a thick neck, listening to the singer singing to the key point, even breathing was much rougher, and he was actually asked to be quieter, how could he not be angry?

He scolded angrily, "We wait for wine and fun, do we still need to care about whether others like it or not? If it's noisy, you can go and help them change rooms, or you might as well just go and stop making noise!"

The shopkeeper saw that the faces in this room were a little violent, especially a guy who was more than nine feet long, with such a strong physique, who had beaten the tiger and bear, naturally he didn't dare to make a loud noise, so he immediately withdrew in a gloomy manner and made another arrangement.

I didn't care about it here, everyone was still listening to the music and enjoying themselves, but after a while, I suddenly heard someone outside roaring, "What a miscellaneous talent, dare to let my master go by himself!"

In this room, there are eleven official cultivators, it can be said that including the newcomers Lu Jin and Chen Fan, none of them are real mortals, even if they have drunk a lot of wine, but the clarity of their ears and eyes is still very incomparable, and this voice roared out, of course everyone heard it.

After a while, the door was pushed open with a bang, and a man strode in, "Are you waiting for you to make a bad noise again?"

After saying this, he settled down, but suddenly found that the people in this room did not seem to be easy to mess with.

Ask for a few monthly passes!
