Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 165 Travel

 Hong Kong calendar year 1,428, the twenty-fourth day of the first lunar month.

 Inspection Department.

Chen Mu was sitting in the office on the fifth floor of the department building, constantly approving one thing after another.

Half a month has passed since the He family was destroyed. The He family was a huge behemoth, and its spreading branches were intertwined. It did not end with just annihilating the inner city. There were many other branches that needed to be dealt with.

He cannot leave these things to others, let alone the Yu family. He, the supervisor, can only review them one by one, and then pass them on after review.

but.

This day is almost coming to an end.

On the one hand, in the past half month, basically all the government affairs that should be dealt with have been handled to a minimum. All officials who have clearly identified the origin of the family have been basically dismissed from their posts, investigated and dealt with, and those with heinous crimes have been replaced on the spot. execution.

Those who are not clear-cut and only prefer the He family will be dealt with at the discretion of each Yasi. Any violation of laws and disciplines will be dealt with strictly. If there is no violation of laws and disciplines, they will be temporarily retained until all other matters are dealt with. No follow-up.

 On the other hand, Yan Jingqing is coming back.

After half a month, the battle in the Purple Mist Mountains has basically come to an end. The main altar of the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect has been basically turned upside down by the four sects, and all kinds of resources have been distributed.

Chen Mu took a sip of tea and picked up another note.

"Fu Linjiang abandoned his official position and fled. He was discovered when he was leaving the city. He tried to resist and was killed on the spot..."

Um.

He still had some impression of this person, as if he was a messenger who followed He Mingxuan a long time ago, but it was just not worth paying attention to, so he had not paid any attention to him.

Although he was a member of the He family, if he had not committed any crime, Chen Mu most likely would not have bothered to be acquainted with a small police officer. However, it was unlikely after all. After all, he was working with He Mingxuan and was now killed on the spot. Forget it.

“Master Dusi, the supervisor is back!”

 Suddenly, officials from the Supervision Department came to report.

Chen Mu marked "read" on the note, and then stood up. Following the officials downstairs, he soon saw Yan Jingqing walking from a distance, still dressed in white, followed by two people. Dusi.

 “See Lord Inspector.”

 Many officials of the Supervision Department bowed down one after another.

Yan Jingqing did not stick to formal etiquette. He came over quickly and went upstairs with Chen Mu. After reaching the sixth floor, he began to listen to Chen Mu's summary report on various affairs in Yucheng.

After almost listening, Yan Jingqing nodded slightly and said: "Well, I know most of the things. The He family deserves it. Although you did it a little hastily, but the situation at that time was a quick response to the situation. Follow-up You have done a good job in handling everything. It turns out that you already have some experience in being an official."

 For Yan Jingqing.

It is not difficult to deal with the He family. It is easy to destroy the He family. But the key is how to quickly calm down the chaos in various ministries and offices and the inner and outer city after the He family is destroyed. This is the problem. key.

After Chen Mu annihilated the He family, he did not use the Yu family's people to fill all the vacancies in the He family. Instead, he divided them very clearly. First, he issued an order to temporarily transfer the important positions to the higher level. The officials of the same government department at the same level serve concurrently to maintain overall stability, and then allocate them one by one. From arrest to interrogation, judgment, and official appointment and dismissal, the process is orderly.

After that, the vacant official positions were checked and filled one by one. Based on the intelligence information of each yamen, suitable personnel were selected from top to bottom, either promoted or transferred. In just half a month, most of them were Problems are solved one by one.

“My subordinates are just doing their best. Without the Supervision Department’s intelligence information on various ministries and offices in Yucheng, they would probably be in a mess and have no way to start.”

 Chen Mu responded without taking any credit.

In fact, it’s not really about how powerful he is, it’s just that the government is corrupt to a certain extent. If you just wipe the roster a few times, it might be better than the original situation. He just follows the principle of seeking truth from facts and does things one by one. That’s all.

But in today's world where he only cares about his own interests and wants to make clear arrangements for all his relatives and distant neighbors who can't be touched with eight poles, his hard work all the way seems like a green lotus that emerges from the mud but remains unstained.

Yan Jingqing smiled and said: "Don't be too modest, it should be your contribution, it's yours... Meng Danyun told me that joining the Qixuan Sect is a more suitable path for you, but I feel that if you don't work as an official outside, you will be buried. Because of your talent, of course it will be of great benefit to you to practice in the Qixuan Sect. I also practiced under the Qixuan Sect as a foreign official for some time. Well, when Meng Danyun returns to the Qixuan Sect, , if you are interested, there is no harm in going with her."

 Hearing Yan Jingqing's words, Chen Mu felt slightly relieved.

In fact, if he expresses his intention to go to Qixuan Sect, Yan Jingqing will definitely not stop him, but it is naturally better not to waste more words. Just listening to Yan Jingqing's statement, Meng Danyun seems to be still in Yu County.

Chen Mu thought for a while and said to Yan Jingqing: "Thank you for your kindness, sir. Now that the incident has subsided, I still have some personal matters that require me to leave Yucheng. In addition, I can also do my part in hunting down the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect. force."

 “It’s up to you to decide.”

Yan Jingqing said in an easy-going manner: "The position of head of the Supervision Department is still vacant. Are you willing to take over?"

This sentence made Chen Mu feel a little startled, and then he shook his head secretly. Although he had already reached the second step of practicing the Xunfeng artistic conception earlier, and had made great progress in the simulation and disguise of the breath, it seemed that he still He couldn't hide it from the eyes of Yan Jingqing, a top being in the Six Fu Realm. No wonder Yan Jingqing would keep him in the inner city at that time. I'm afraid it was also for this reason.

In fact, the official positions of Daxuan have always been corresponding to the grades of martial arts. In addition to the virtual title of the first grade, the grades from second to ninth grade also correspond to the eight levels of martial arts. The fifth grade chief corresponds to the five internal organs realm.

Yan Jingqing specifically mentioned that he could take over as the head of the department, which was a hint of his level.

“My subordinate has been appointed as the capital secretary not long ago and is not familiar with all the affairs. It is still too early to take over as the head of the department.”

 Chen Mu thought for a while and responded.

Because Yan Jingqing's tone was not an order, but a hint of negotiation, and he wanted to see his opinion, so he simply expressed that he did not want to be promoted to the position of director at this time, mainly because he would be transferred soon. It doesn't make much sense to practice in the Qixuan Sect and be promoted to the director now.

  “Also good.”

Yan Jingqing nodded slightly.

 Actually, he had no intention of stopping Chen Mu from practicing martial arts. However, in terms of martial arts, the Five Zang Realm was a watershed. After entering the Five Zang Realm, he went to Qixuan Sect to practice hard for a period of time before rebirth.

Before entering the Five Zang Realm, going to the Qixuan Sect actually doesn't make much sense. Even if you understand the artistic conception, practicing various artistic conception secrets is still very difficult and often difficult to master. Only by entering the Five Zang Realm or understanding the second step of the artistic conception can you start.

 …

 Leave Yan Jingqing’s place.

 Chen Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

These days, he has been extremely busy dealing with all kinds of trivial matters after the He family was wiped out. Now he can finally attend to errands and no longer has to waste time on government affairs.

In fact, he had something to leave Yucheng a long time ago. It was about his mother Liu Ping's sister, his aunt Liu Rong. Someone had been found in Anyu County.

He has always kept this matter in mind and has never forgotten it. However, he had not broken through the five internal organs realm earlier and faced various threats. It was not the right time to leave the city. Later, he reached the key point of serving as the supervisor of the supervisory department and was left in Yu by Yan Jingqing. The city is in control of the overall situation, and it is even more impossible to leave the post without authorization, so it has to continue to be placed.

 Until now.

 Finally everything has come to an end and we can go to Anyu County.

In addition, Xu Hongyu is still hunting down the remnants of the Tianzhi Sect under the orders of the Demon Slayer Division. He is now in the area of ​​Anyu County. This time he goes over and can pick up Xu Hongyu and return to Yucheng together.

 As for the question of the remnants of the He family...

Yan Jingqing told him that basically all the elite members of the He family had been wiped out. Only one He Wuyou was still outside, but he was also injured by Meng Danyun. This was also a minor hidden danger. Xu Hongyu had better return to Yucheng earlier. It was only safe under the wings of Yu Jiujiang. Although Yu Jiujiang was in a worse state after the previous battle, he was still a strong man in the five internal organs realm within a year or two.

Of course, it would be best if He Wuyou, who is full of hatred for him, intercepts and kills him on the way, and it is up to him to end the matter completely, so he has to do something a little bit during this trip.

 After thinking about it.

 Chen Mu returned to the Yu family's residence.

As the battle in the Ziwu Mountains came to an end, many members of the Yu family returned, including the head of the family, Yu Zuyi.

 Chen Mu found Yu Zuyi and explained some things, then quietly set off with Chen Yue to Anyu County.

 …

 Seven or eight days later.

 On the official road from Yu County to Anyu County.

A carriage was speeding, its wheels rolling past, and dust was flying all the way.

Chen Mu was wearing a simple gown and was sitting in front of the car steering the car. Chen Yue was not sitting in the car, but sitting on the other side of the carriage frame. Her two little feet in little flower shoes followed the speed of the carriage. While swaying, a pair of big eyes kept looking around at the mountains and waterscapes in the distance, looking very happy.

Other than being taken by Chen Mu to worship her parents in so many years, this was her first real trip out of the city. She was very curious about everything outside the city and was quite excited along the way.

 In fact. After the disciples of the Yu family's martial arts academy enter the meat training realm, they will have some opportunities to be taken out of the city by martial arts masters to practice and hunt some nearby ferocious beasts and monsters. However, since the four sects entered Yu County, all the martial arts academy have disappeared. The same applies to this activity, including the Yu family. They don't leave the city without permission no matter what.

“Brother, do you think we are now fighting the world with swords and traveling around the world?”

Chen Yue suddenly came closer to Chen Mu and said with a smile.

Chen Mu turned his head to look at her and said, "I'm still far from being able to wield a sword in the world. I'm just in the remote mountains and fields, but I can only travel in the rivers and lakes... When have we been out of the rivers and lakes?"

Probably because of the environment in the inner city, this girl didn't realize that the world was already a whole world.

 “That’s it.”

Chen Yue looked up at the sky with a happy look on her face and said, "My brother has told me many stories. In fact, when I was very young, what I wanted most was to tell stories with my brother. The people inside.”

 Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue, and then at the official road that stretched to the end of his sight in the distance. He felt a little leisurely in his heart for a moment. At first, he only thought about living a good life with Chen Yue.

 But human desires are always endless.

 “You are already in the story.”

Chen Mu reached out and touched Chen Yue's head, then glanced to one side of the official road.

 Chen Yue noticed Chen Mu's gaze and looked over. Then she saw seven or eight figures suddenly tumbled out of the ditch on the side of the official road and directly blocked the carriage.

The leader had a ferocious look on his face, holding a steel knife in his hand, and said: "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree..."

 “Here, the Jianghu you want.”

Chen Mu smiled at Chen Yue.

It would be strange to walk on the official road in broad daylight without a large number of guards and attendants, so it would be strange not to encounter bandits who rob the road. The disciples of the four sects stationed in Yu County only made the situation slightly better, but in fact there are still many .

 “Hehe, this chivalrous girl should just act chivalrously.”

Chen Yue blinked, and then with a shake of her little hand, she pulled out the soft sword that she was sitting on half of her buttocks to prevent it from being knocked off by the shaking of the carriage. Then she jumped up, got out of the car, and charged at the seven or eight bandits in front of her. Kill it.

 “Yo, she’s a pretty girl.”

The nearest knife-wielding gangster had a lewd smile on his face, but as soon as he swung the knife, his eyes blurred, and Chen Yue's figure passed by him. His throat hurt even more, and he felt a wave of pain. The heat flowed down.

His eyes widened slightly, and when he reached out and touched it, he saw that it was all covered in blood, and then he swayed and fell down.

 “This girl is not bad.”

Chen Mu sat on the carriage, watching this scene and only smiled slightly.

In fact, Chen Yue is not a weakling. With his level of physical training and Dacheng's swordsmanship, he can fight against some ordinary robbers. However, compared to someone like him who has already stood at the top of a county, he is not considered a weakling. Nothing more.

Speaking of which, this should be Chen Yue's "actual combat" in the true sense. Maybe because he is beside him, he is very calm, but he can kill people with one sword without hesitation. At least this girl is much stronger than Yu Ru in terms of state of mind. It is indeed suitable for practicing martial arts.

 “The idea is prickly!”

 “Watch out!”

 “Ouch, hurry up and kill this guy!”

Sensing that something was wrong, the gangsters immediately became fierce and ferocious. They surrounded Chen Yue and pointed steel knives at her. One of the leaders even said ferociously: "If you dare to kill my brother, you will be killed." I’m so tired, I want to let all the brothers have a taste of you, and I’m going to use your flesh as food and drinks!”

All kinds of obscene words and ferocious curses came towards him, but Chen Yue was unexpectedly calm, waving his soft sword to resist attacks from all directions, fighting and retreating, without letting himself be completely surrounded. From time to time, he would strike back with a sword, wounding or even killing someone.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

One of them was hit by a sword in the thigh and stumbled to the ground. After getting up with support, he looked at Chen Yue's figure angrily, but suddenly his eyes moved to Chen Mu who was sitting on the frame of the bicycle and was motionless.

Women are very young and have very good kung fu. This pretty boy must be their concubine. If they take down Chen Mu first, Chen Yue will definitely be able to take advantage of them.

Hence he gave a ferocious laugh and walked towards Chen Mu on the carriage.

However.

As soon as he walked to the side of the carriage, he suddenly felt his vision spinning. In the chaos, he only saw a familiar headless corpse standing there. It turned out to be his own corpse.

Until his death, there was still a trace of doubt in his eyes as to how his head fell off.

The more thieves are beaten, the fewer the number.

 Soon only the leader of the gangsters was left fighting Chen Yue one on one.

He seems to have never practiced the body tempering method, but he is physically strong and very strong, and he has good sword skills and masters the power of the sword, so he can rival Chen Yue who is in the flesh training realm.

Seeing each of his brothers fall down, either killed by Chen Yue, or seriously injured and unable to get up, his eyes finally showed a strong fierce light, and he grew evil, and made a fierce move with the big knife in his hand, He slashed at Chen Yue.

This sword is a fierce attack that damages both sides.

According to the momentum of the sword, Chen Yue's sword will definitely pierce his throat, and his sword will chop at most Chen Yue's shoulder bone. Chen Yue has the advantage, but there is ferocity in his eyes, and he does not dodge or dodge. , insisting on exchanging death for injury.

 Chen Yue also noticed this. After a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, he did not flinch.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ifies.

 The sword pierced the bandit's throat.

The bandit's knife barely landed on her shoulder, but it was blocked by an invisible force and could not cut even a single inch. Then the entire knife started from the blade, shattered inch by inch, and turned into a grain. Grains of iron **** are scattered.

"Well…"

Blood spilled from the robber's mouth and his eyes widened slightly, as if he couldn't understand what was happening.

 Finally, he fell down with a look of reluctance.

Seeing the bandit fall, Chen Yue's small chest rose and fell violently. It was obvious that her heart was not at peace. She looked at her shoulder again, looking at the iron **** scattered on the ground, exhaled lightly, and then closed it. Pick up the soft sword and return to the carriage.

 “Why not hide?”

Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue and asked gently.

Chen Yue's face was still a little pale, she shook her head and said, "I can win."

Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue's face and knew that she was not so decisive because he was behind, but that she had indeed made her own judgment and choice in the moment of the battle, and finally reached out and touched her head. .

 “Although it’s your first time, it’s pretty good.”

Although he usually spends more time practicing and doesn't pay much attention to Chen Yue, he is aware of Chen Yue's efforts. At first, he wanted to help him, but now he doesn't want to be him drag.

Chen Yue's mood gradually calmed down a lot, she smiled and said, "I want to be as powerful as Sister Hongyu."

Chen Mu smiled: "If you are more courageous, you should become someone like Senior Sister Meng."

 “Who is Senior Sister Meng?”

“Oh, I haven’t told you about the True Biography of Qixuan Sect Lingxuan, Meng Danyun.”

　　"Is it true? Isn't that a person who is more powerful than my brother?"

“Senior Sister Meng is indeed ahead of me in terms of cultivation.”

“So my brother is more powerful?”

“I still respect Senior Sister Meng very much.”

As for the transitional plot, I can only add more words and write it faster.
