"I have met Mr. Chu!" Under the leadership of Chen Jisheng, all the officials in Yishui County, Chu Fengge, saluted with their hands in hand.
Chu Fengge held his head high and said "hmm" casually as a return gift.
His cold and arrogant expression, coupled with his bright and attractive face, gave him a feeling of loneliness as a master.
"Gu Xu and Ma Qin, are you there?" I heard him say in a cold tone.
"My humble duty is here." Gu Xu and Ma Qin took a step forward together.
Chu Fengge casually glanced at these two people - a middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life, and a young boy who was still young. They didn't look out of the ordinary. I really don't know why the Chief of Staff values them so much. .
So he waved his hand casually, called his two followers to his side, and ordered: "Xu San, Wang Wu, I have something important to do. I will leave the next assessment to you to arrange." ”
“The process is still the same?” the attendant asked.
"Same as usual." Chu Fengge said calmly.
As he said before, two low-level ants competing for a trivial ninth-grade official position are not worthy of his personal attention at all.
He would rather spend his time on more meaningful things.
For example, try to deal with a few notorious ghosts and make your reputation as a "peerless genius" and "the best swordsman in the world" resound throughout the Qi Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Chu Fengge stood with his hands behind his hands and asked Chen Jisheng in a casual tone: "Do you know what the strongest ghost is near Yishui County?"
Chen Jisheng was a little confused and didn't know why Chu Fengge asked him such a question.
But he still replied respectfully: "Sir, it is one of the 'Three Fierce Gods of Jiaodong', Yishan Snow Girl."
Hearing the word "fierce god" , Chu Fengge suddenly felt a little scared.
Although he has always been arrogant and narcissistic, he is not stupid. He knows that "fierce god" level evil spirits require masters like the Chief Secretary or the Grand Master of Qi to solve them.
If he went to fight alone, he would undoubtedly kill the snow girl.
However, he still looked calm, and then asked: "Where is the second most powerful evil ghost?"
"In the suburbs of Qingzhou Prefecture, the Lu family's haunted house," Chen Jisheng replied, " This haunted house is uninhabited, but it makes strange noises - the sound of strings and bamboo strings during the day, and the howling of ghosts and wolves at night. So far, no monks sent by the Exorcism Department of Qingzhou Prefecture to investigate the situation have survived. ”
Chu Fengge silently thought to himself: This doesn’t sound as scary as a fierce god-level evil ghost. Maybe I can give it a try. As long as I can solve this major case, I can secure my title of "the number one person of the younger generation" - Jiange Su Xiao, Youzhou Zhao Yan, and that stinky girl Shangguan Jin will never be able to catch up. My pace. Anyway, I have a magic weapon for self-protection given by Mr. Sishou. I can escape even if I can't defeat you.
I saw him chuckle lightly and said: "I, Chu Fengge, have been exterminating demons and defending the Tao for nearly ten years, and I have never been afraid of any ghosts.Strange. What others dare not do, I will do. Leave this Lu family’s haunted house to me! ”
“Master Chu is so righteous! I admire you! "Ma Qin immediately flattered him.
Then, Chu Fengge looked up at the sky and shouted loudly:
"Here comes the sword! ”
A long sword with exquisite shape flew towards him and hovered beside him.
Chu Fengge jumped lightly, stepped on the flying sword with both feet, and then controlled the wind Then, he disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
Everyone looked up at him flying away with his sword, filled with envy and yearning.
The fourth realm. Master, it's so terrifying!
Besides, this Master Chu looks to be in his twenties at most - he can reach the fourth level at such a young age, and his future achievements are limitless!
Perhaps in a few years, the Daqi Dynasty will have another top powerhouse like the emperor, national advisor, and chief minister.
…………
Even if the examiner is not doing his job, today's promotion assessment will still be conducted as usual.
The first thing to do is the theoretical knowledge test.
Because there are only two people participating in the promotion assessment. Everything was kept simple, and no special venue was arranged.
Just two desks and two chairs were placed in the lobby of the Yamen, which looked lonely in the empty room.
< p>All the idle staff, including Chen Jisheng, Shi Xiaohan and others, were kicked out of the lobby.Only Gu Xu, Ma Qin and Chu Fengge were left in charge. The attendant of the proctor.
Ma Qin sat on one of the chairs, stiffly polishing his ink while trying to review his past ghost-killing experience in his mind.
But it was too much. Nervous, he just felt that his mind was blank - he had stayed up late to review many key points last night, but suddenly he couldn't remember anything.
Inadvertently, he couldn't help turning his head and glanced at the side. Gu Xu.
The boy had already polished his ink and was leaning back in the chair with his eyes closed, looking relaxed and relaxed.
This made him feel relaxed. Ma Qin's psychological pressure became even greater.
A quarter of an hour later, the bell rang.
The attendants handed out the rolled bags sealed with oilcloth.
p>The two of them each opened the paper bag, took out the question paper, and read it silently, but were not allowed to write.
The lobby was silent, and they could only hear the rustle of the rain hitting the leaves outside the window.
Gu Xu opened his eyes and began to browse the question papers casually.
For him who has the talent of [knowledge and memorization], the theory test itself is his most confident.
The dense text on the question paper did not make him anxious, but made him feel more relaxed.
Everything was under control. >
When the bell rang for the second time, the two began to answer the questions.
"You have one moment to burn incense." The attendant who invigilated the exam said in a cold tone.
Hearing this, Ma Qin's heart skipped a beat, and he was inevitably a little anxious.
One stick of incense lasts about half an hour.
It was quite difficult for him to finish writing this nine-page question paper in half an hour.
He calmed down, turned back two pages of the paper, and decided to pick simple questions first within the limited time.
But Gu Xu was not in a hurry and still read the questions carefully from the beginning step by step.
In his opinion, every question is of similar difficulty.
The first question on the ink scroll is as follows:
"Please describe the characteristics and weaknesses of Mao Rongpo."
Gu Xu thought for two seconds, then picked up the pen and moved his wrist. , carefully write down the answer: "Mao Rongpo looks like an old woman with the head of a cat. She is a 'wild ghost'. She feeds on young children. She has a third eye on the top of her head. You can kill it by poking it blind."
Then he looked at the second question:
"What is a pupil of a person?"
He thought for a while and wrote: "A monster transformed from the pupil of a person's eyes." ."
The third question: "Please describe the origin of the ghost 'Meng Shuangshi'"
Gu Xu answered: "In ancient times, there were brothers and sisters who got married and were exiled. Kongtong died embracing each other. Their bodies were nourished by Yin energy, and seven years later they were reborn as a monster with two heads, four arms and four legs, named 'Meng Shuangshi'."
The fourth. Question: "Please list three methods that can break the immortality of ghosts and monsters."
Gu Xu replied: "The monk's true fire; the metal with the attribute of the sun; the ability to borrow the energy of the sun, moon and stars. A special talisman of power and seal script."
...
Read thousands of volumes and write like a god.
Gu Xu's colleagues often say that Gu Xu has a library in his mind - there is very little knowledge that he does not know about cultivation and dealing with ghosts.
When answering questions, Gu Xu felt that his brain was more like a search engine.
As long as you enter the question, the answer will appear naturally with a "swish", and there is no need to deliberately think about it at all.
As a result, his mood became more and more relaxed.
Accompanied by the sound of rain outside the window, the tip of his pen began to dance on the white paper, outlining each of the stretching and graceful regular script fonts.
Just like he usually draws symbols, freehand, casual, free and easy.
