Chen Mu stepped forward with a calm expression.
He raised his right hand and pulled out a wooden sword. He then flicked his arm and heard a crisp sound like a whip. Then he swung out a sword and landed on the iron pillar. As the wooden sword broke, the iron A mark also appeared on the pillar.
“It’s really good.”
This comment was not made by the old man in charge of the assessment, but by Xu Hongyu, with a hint of approval in his eyes.
Although they are both Yi Jin, there are differences between Yi Jin and Yi Jin. Chen Mu’s muscles and skin are unusual, so he can be so crisp, and his blow is more direct. After releasing the third level of power, the power was quite impressive. The traces left on the iron pillar were obviously much deeper than those of Xiao He.
The old man looked at Chen Mu’s move, and a faint glint flashed in his turbid eyes. However, he had no other reaction, and he still drew a circle on the paper with an indifferent expression.
“Okay.”
As the words fell.
Xu Hongyu also nodded slightly, and led Chen Mu and Xiaohe directly past the hall and continued to the back.
Xu Hongyu looked at Chen Mu as she walked and said: “Actually, you can pass by showing the state of Yijin. Most of the current assessments are just a formality. They won’t deliberately make things difficult. There is no need to show the third level… But it’s okay. After that, To perform various tasks and achieve meritorious deeds, you still have to show your true strength.”
Xiaohe had told her a long time ago that Chen Mu had mastered the triple position, but rarely showed it outside. She also admired this. Although he was a little younger than her, he could be so neither arrogant nor arrogant, and never showed it deliberately in front of others. With his strength, he always keeps a low profile and only strikes with thunder when he takes action. With his character and character, you can hardly tell that he is a young man in his twenties.
Therefore, at first, she had an older perspective on Chen Mu, but then it gradually disappeared. When she was in contact with Chen Mu, she did not feel at all that Chen Mu was a person two years younger than her.
Compared with the geniuses she had met from various families who were similar to her own age, Chen Mu’s level of strength aside, it really gave her a feeling that it was different from the others.
This was actually the reason why she valued Chen Mu more and more later on, not just because of Chen Mu’s talent. After all, in this world, although strength is the most important part of establishing a foothold, character and behavior are also very important.
True strength…
Chen Mu touched his chin, but did not say anything. He only said thoughtfully: “Well, speaking of this, the rules of the Demon Slayer Division are still quite strict, which is a little different from other Yamen divisions.”
Xu Hongyu nodded and said: “Of course, although the imperial court has not issued any orders to the level of Yu County for a long time, the Demon Slaying Division is currently not completely controlled by any one family. The head of the division is also from the Qixuan Sect.”
“That’s it.”
Chen Mu nodded slightly.
He had heard a little bit about these things. As the Demon Slayer Division in Yu County gathered almost all the top warriors from various families, it was also a place where various families fought against each other. Although it was nominally under the jurisdiction of the city lord Xue Huaikong, the Qixuan Sect also had some involvement.
However, as far as he knew, the head of the Qixuan Sect did not interfere in any disputes between the various families, nor did he take sides. He always stayed in the middle and upright, and would only take action when relatively large demon disasters occurred occasionally.
Actually.
To stay in the middle is to lean towards the Xue family.
After all, the Xue family is the largest in the entire Yu City, and the city lord Xue Huaikong is also the head of the Xue family. He has stronger control over the Demon Slayer Division than other families, and even controls the sources of Yijin Pills and Bone Forging Pills.
At the beginning, his status was not high enough and he didn’t know much, but now he can basically see clearly that the source of Yijin Pill and Bone Forging Pill is most likely from the Qixuan Sect.
soon.
The three of them walked through the corridor and came to the last hall. This hall was no longer dark and dark, but much brighter. There were several people wearing official clothes chatting with each other. When they saw the arrival of Chen Mu and the others, they immediately restrained themselves. .
Xu Hongyu took out her waist card and showed it to the three of them.
Chen Mu also followed Xiao He’s lead and took out his belt cards.
Several officials reached out their hands to take it respectfully, then inspected it and immediately handed it back, saying respectfully: “The three adults’ uniforms are ready, as well as the knives and inner armor customized for the three adults. Please come. Take it here.”
Chen Mu followed one person and quickly obtained a green robe, a long knife, and an inner armor from behind.
Putting the green robe aside for the time being, Chen Mu picked up the knife and pulled it out with a clang. He saw bursts of cold light on the blade. The whole thing was similar to the bad knife, but the quality was obviously much better than the bad knife. , made of fine iron.
As for the inner armor, the quality is relatively average. It is two connected pieces of hard armor, which can just protect the chest and back. However, in fact, the ‘armor’ itself has a different status, secretly hiding crossbow bolts and Armor used to be a serious crime.
Chen Mu thought for a moment, then put it on and tried it on. It didn’t affect his movements, so he left it on.
However, this armor is not actually very effective for him. Essentially, his current muscles and skin are tougher than this iron armor. Of course, an extra layer of armor will ultimately give him slightly more defense.
“It would be nice if I could get a piece of soft armor, but now the soft armor that can have an obvious effect on me is basically the type that won’t be sold for ten thousand yuan, and is extremely valuable…”
Chen Mu shook his head slightly, then put on the green sweatshirt, and then picked up the fine iron sword.
To him today, the fine iron sword is still a poor quality sword, and there is actually no difference in using it. Only the magic blade made of black iron can have some effect, or the name of the legendary famous sword sword.
Get out of the house.
In another room on the back, Xiao He also opened the door and walked out. She had also changed into the green sweatshirt. It looked like it was customized according to her body shape. The one she was wearing was also Fits just right.
Chen Mu glanced at her heart and saw that she was completely impoverished. He didn’t know if she was wearing the iron inner armor underneath. In fact, Xiao He was not poor. She had some weight, but she was outside today. I didn’t see any slope. It was most likely that I knew about the iron inner armor in advance and wrapped it in silk or something.
When a martial artist steps into Yijin, the Qi and blood throughout the body will be full and flowing freely. There is no need to worry about problems such as being wrapped and squeezed, causing Qi and blood to be blocked. No matter what, it is not a big problem.
“It fits really well.”
Xiao He came closer and circled around Chen Mu.
Chen Mu smiled lightly and said nothing.
The green uniform of the Demon Slayer Division is indeed quite good. Compared with the dark green uniform when he was a messenger, it has fewer patterns and lines, but the material used is obviously higher-grade, and the embroidered patterns and textures are also made of high-quality silk. Weaving… Of course, these are actually nonsense. The main thing is that if your personal temperament and appearance are of sufficient quality, then any clothes you wear will fit you better.
As for Xiaohe…
The same green sweatshirt, but it lowered her appearance a bit.
It’s not that Xiaohe is not beautiful enough, it’s just that the Tsing Yi sweatshirt is really not suitable for a daughter’s family.
but.
When Xu Hongyu walked out of the innermost room, it was eye-catching. Compared with the white flying fish uniform of the Chief Chaosi, the white Demon-Slaying Division guard uniform looked about the same as that of the Chief Chaosi Division, and they both fit her perfectly. temperament.
Mainly at a glance, the slope was moderate. It was obvious that Xu Hongyu was not wearing that inner armor. Chen Mu estimated that as Xu Hongyu, he probably had better soft armor and did not need the low-end iron armor or the small ones. It’s so troublesome.
“Let’s go.”
Xu Hongyu walked over with a peaceful expression.
Several officials looked at Chen Mu and others who came out, bowed respectfully, and watched the three people leave until the backs of Xu Hongyu and Chen Mu completely disappeared in the darkness. Only then did someone whisper with gleaming eyes: “Xu Hongyu…is Yu?” The girl at home is indeed as fair and beautiful as the rumors say. She can even wear this white sweatshirt so beautifully. I don’t think even the oiran from Tianxiang Tower can compare with her.”
“Shh! You don’t want your life!”
The person next to him was startled, glared at him, and said: “Comparing Mr. Xu to a brothel prostitute, you really are the one.”
The man shrugged and sighed again: “I heard that she is already twenty-seven years old this year. It seems that she is not married yet. Although women who practice martial arts will be later, but still…”
“Probably I didn’t take a fancy to it.”
The person behind him shook his head and said: “There are probably only a few people in Yucheng who can match her well with Master Xu, and with her status, it’s not a personal matter.”
Everyone understood that with Xu Hongyu’s status, if a direct descendant of the Yu family were to get married, they would either have to be a talented person from the younger generation, or they would have to be a direct descendant of several other families in order to marry each other.
No matter what happens, it will definitely be a major event that affects the pattern of Yucheng.
Naturally, it cannot be done hastily.
“Maybe that’s why it’s only been so many years…”
“That’s enough, let’s go do something.”
……
After Xu Hongyu walked out of the east government office, she went straight to the central government office.
Chen Mu also followed calmly.
The white-clothed guards of the Demon-Slaying Department belong to the seventh rank and have the same position as the Chief Commissioner. To Xu Hongyu, being appointed as a white-clothed guard is an ordinary job, but in fact, the status of the Demon-Slaying Department is higher than that of all other yamen departments. There is also the so-called official appointment. A high-level statement.
To put it simply, today’s Xu Hongyu receives information about the presence of monsters in Nancheng District and goes to Nancheng District to eliminate the monsters. Even if the chief police officer in Nancheng District has the same official position, he must fully cooperate and obey the command. This is the highest level of officialdom. class.
same.
He, the Qingyi Guard, belongs to the eighth rank, and his status is equivalent to the Deputy Chief Chaplain of the City Guard General Department. Compared with the past Wutongli Chaplain, he has been directly promoted by half a level, but his actual status is higher, and he can go to the local level. Directly request any city health branch to cooperate.
