Chapter 18 Evaluation
The most powerful in Jingxian County is not the Wang family, let alone the Zhang Mansion, but the Jingxian County Ya.
The county of the county government is called the big man, and he was transferred from Shimizu County in Kyushu five years ago, and this person is not strong in force. However, his wrists are extremely iron-blooded.
When he first took office, the largest family in the county was not the Wang family, but the Zhou family. The Zhou family has been entrenched in Jing County for hundreds of years, with strong power and hands and eyes. In previous years, the county order still needed to report in advance when the head of the Zhou family saw him, otherwise he would not be able to see him at all. Anyone in the Zhou family who committed an accident needs to be confirmed with the Zhou family before they can decide whether to arrest or not. The Zhou family back then, that was the real emperor of Jingxian County. The yamen is simply an ornament.
However, on the day that Lin Buyi, the eldest lord of the county government, took office, he asked the head of the Zhou family to come and ask for guilt. The Zhou family naturally ignored it, and the next day the Zhou family was directly uprooted, all the men were assigned to the army, and the women were directly sent to the Teaching Division. The soil emperor of Jing County collapsed overnight. No one knows how Lin Buyi did it. It's only clear that the Zhou family is gone.
Since then, no one in Jingxian County has dared to underestimate this big man. Before acting, they will first visit the eldest master, and only after getting permission will they dare to do it.
Just like last night, Wang Xiangdong went to the yamen in person in the afternoon and gave enough benefits, so the eldest man turned a blind eye and treated it as if he didn't see it. Otherwise, give Wang Xiangdong a hundred dares, and he will not dare to blatantly enter Zhang's mansion.
It's just that Xu Qing was killed last night, and the Zhang family has two third-rate masters. Especially Zhang Qingshan, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old third-rate master, who hadn't heard any news before, suddenly came out. Everyone knows that the Zhang family is definitely not ordinary, at least since last night, it is not ordinary. That's why I have today's visit.
Lin Buyi walked in the front, he didn't wear an official mansion, simple coarse cloth clothes, and looked like an ordinary person in his thirties. He always had a gentle smile on his face. However, between walking, there are dragons and tigers, tigers and tigers, and the momentum is breathtaking.
Beside him, a woman covered her face with a silk scarf, and she couldn't see clearly. She was wearing a white silk gown, and the warm jade belt tied her waist, just like a hand, and there was quite a flavor when she walked. Judging from the size alone, this woman is definitely a beauty.
The group walked into the living room of Zhang's mansion, and at this time, the tables in the hall were full of delicious food, and the next person was waiting on the side.
"Master Lin, please take a seat!" Zhang Jing guided Lin Buyi to take a seat, which was the main seat in the living room, and he was supposed to sit in the main house, but at this time he took the initiative to give Lin Buyi, which was respect, and even bowed his head.
"Don't be so polite, today is a simple visit, and the location of the main house is still yours. Lin Buyi shook his head and sat down next to the main seat, the woman sat next to him, and the other rich gentry sat separately.
Zhang Qingshan also came to the meeting room at this time, and he and Ma Hanfeng must also attend today. They sat down on the other side of Zhang Jing.
At the beginning of the banquet, the craftsmanship of the drunken immortal building is a must in Jing County. The dishes are full of color and flavor, and the blue and white drunk is the favorite of everyone in Jingxian County.
Lin Buyi likes to get drunk with blue and white flowers, and he must drink it every day, this is the old wine that has been stored in the Drunken Immortal Building for thirty years, and the taste is even more mellow, even if he can't drink it every day.
After drinking three glasses in a row, Lin Buyi put down his wine glass, looked at Zhang Qingshan on the side, and asked, "This must be Zhang Qingshan and Zhang Shaoxia, right?"
"Master Lin has tormented me, the young man doesn't dare to be it, the Qingshan boy asks for peace to Master Lin. Zhang Jing had already explained to him that no matter what, he couldn't mess around in front of Master Lin anymore, and the etiquette he should have was indispensable.
Zhang Qingshan is also not rebellious, and has developed a polite habit since he was a child on earth. There is no psychological barrier to the sound of the lord.
"Zhang Gongzi is a talent, and at a young age, he has entered the ranks of third-rate masters, and he will definitely have a bright future in time. Don't be too modest. Lin Buyi waved his hand and said with a smile: "I don't know who Zhang Gongzi studied with?" I have always admired everyone in the martial arts, if it is convenient, I hope Zhang Gongzi can introduce one or two." ”
Zhang Qingshan was stunned, but he didn't expect Lin Buyi to ask like this. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Don't hide it, I just followed Uncle Zhao's swordsmanship, and there were no other masters." ”
"Zhao Daxing?" Lin Buyi said in surprise.
"Not bad!"
"Zhao Daxing's Thirteen Deadly Swords are indeed not weak, plus he has been in business all year round and fought with horse bandits, and his power should not be underestimated. However, if you want to enter the third-rate grade, it is far from enough. It is even more impossible to defeat Xu Qing's Wind Knife Technique. Zhang Gongzi has a hard time, forget it, Zhang will not force it. Lin Buyi was still smiling, but in his words, he revealed a little unhappiness.
Zhang Jing hurriedly rounded the field and said, "Master Lin, Qingshan is indeed practicing the Thirteen Deadly Swords. It's just that he inadvertently discovered some flaws in the Thirteen Swords of Death, and after perfecting them, he became a great strength. ”
"In this way, Zhang Gongzi is self-taught? Such talent, not to mention Jingxian, the entire martial arts is afraid that it will not be added?" Lin Buyi saw Zhang Qingshan and Zhang Jing's appearance, this matter did not seem to be a lie, and after a while, he pointed to the woman next to him and said: "Zhang Gongzi, this is my niece Zhao Qingyu, she is the daughter of the Zhao family in Kyushu Mansion, I heard that Zhang Gongzi is like a third-rate master at a young age, I specially want to come to know each other, you can communicate more in the future." ”
"Zhang Gongzi, I live in the county office, I can come and sit when I have time. Zhao nodded softly and said softly.
"It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate! When I'm done with things at home, I'll definitely come to ask the girl!"
......
After the banquet, Lin Buyi and Zhao Qingyu left in a carriage.
On the way, Lin Buyi asked, "Whispering, what do you think of this son?"
"A talent, personable, calm and calm, neither humble nor arrogant. As for martial arts, swordsmanship needs to be exposed in the future to be clear, and the internal cultivation is not very strong. However, it has only opened up a meridian, and it can be regarded as stepping into the threshold of the third rate, which is not outstanding!" Zhao whispered in a low voice.
"What if it's really as he said, that he has no teacher and has improved the Thirteen Deadly Swords?" Lin Buyi asked.
"Third-rate swordsmanship, in the eyes of ordinary people, is very strong. In the eyes of real martial arts people, it can only be regarded as an entry. Even if he improves it himself, it doesn't mean anything. Zhao shook his head softly.
"So, you don't think much of this person?"
"It's too early to tell, let's wait until we get in touch. ”
Lin Buyi closed his eyes, thoughtfully, and after a while, he said, "Hope for potential." Now we need to hire people urgently!"
"Let it be! ”
After Zhang Qingshan finished eating, he went to see Zhang Rong. He was still unconscious, very weak, and according to Dr. Liu, he was still not out of danger.
Looking at the pale face lying on the bed, Zhang Qingshan bit his lip tightly, all because of himself.
"Okay, don't blame yourself. Zhang Jing didn't know when he appeared next to Zhang Qingshan, he patted Zhang Qingshan on the shoulder, "It's over, don't take it to heart." You should be clear that your uncle doesn't blame you. ”
"But ......" Zhang Qingshan was entangled.
"Don't be, get some rest. Don't go to the county government recently, listen to Ma Hanfeng said that the Zhao family in Kyushu Mansion is a martial arts family, and the head of the family, Zhao Gongming, is a first-class master. It's not a good thing to be too close to her in this kind of identity. Zhang Jing's face was solemn and explained.
Zhang Qingshan was stunned and said, "You mean, they have a plan?"
"Not really, but, as you said, you have to be on guard, isn't it?"
Zhang Qingshan nodded, "I see." Still, I wanted to meet her and ask her something. ”
"It's okay to get down to business, I'm just reminding you...... Don't be obsessed with that girl. Zhang Jing glanced at Zhang Qingshan and said.
The corners of Zhang Qingshan's mouth twitched, "How is it possible." ”
"Well, I'm just going to remind you. Let's go, don't bother Dr. Liu. ”
Out of the room, Zhang Qingshan performed his luck as usual. Ming Yugong's proficiency at the third layer at this time was still pitiful. It is important to practice every day.
What is most lacking is cheats. With cheats, whether it is internal strength or swordsmanship, it can be quickly improved.
"That's right! Ma Hanfeng wanders the rivers and lakes, he should know how to get the cheats, how can I forget him. ”
Zhang Qingshan only reacted at this time, and immediately found Ma Hanfeng to consult him.
However, the results obtained are far from ideal.
"Boy, how can such a thing as a cheat book be circulated casually? A complete cheat book is regarded as a treasure by everyone in the rivers and lakes, how can it be put up for auction? However, someone should have this kind of thing. ”
"Who?"
Zhao whispered. Ma Hanfeng's eyes lit up and said: "The Zhao family of Kyushu Mansion has been famous in the martial arts for a long time, and there are definitely not a few cheats they have in their collection. Didn't she tell you to go to the county office to find him? Go and try it, maybe she will give you a few copies casually. Cheats are precious to us, but in their eyes, they are just a broken book. ”
"Really?" Zhang Qingshan felt that Ma Hanfeng had bad intentions.
"Of course it's true. What's the good of me lying to you?" Ma Hanfeng pouted.
"Okay, thank you, Uncle Ma. ”
Ma Hanfeng looked at Zhang Qingshan's departing back and picked his nostrils, "If you get her, the cheats are naturally broken books." If you can't get your hands on it, the ghost will send you cheats. However, the Zhao family ...... Hey, hey!"
The next day, Zhang Qingshan did not dress up this time. Wearing his usual practice clothes, he came to the county office.
"Who's coming?" the guard held a knife and blocked Zhang Qingshan's way.
"Bothering the two of them to help inform them, Zhang Qingshan came to Miss Zhao's appointment. Zhang Qingshan took out two ingots of silver from his bosom and inadvertently put them in the hands of the guards.
The guard weighed it a little, and immediately knew that it was at least five or six taels of silver. Suddenly smiled, and said, "It turned out to be Zhang Gongzi, wait a while, I'll come when I go." ”
After a while, the guard came back, "Gongzi Zhang, Miss Zhao is invited." ”
In the backyard of the county government, the guards took him to the wing, and Zhao whispered that he was still covered with a scarf. It's just that around her, there is a group of young people around her at this time, including Wang Rulun, the second son of the Wang family.
