Today is the day when Chu Qing reports to the Secret Investigation Department's office in Jizhou. Bai Hua leads her through all the procedures.

Chu Qing held the things he received: a set of black uniforms and boots of the Secret Investigation Department, an exclusive dagger of the Secret Investigation Department, and an identity card - a waist tag. The waist tag is made of green sandalwood, with "secret" on the front and unknown on the back.

Pattern. I feel very depressed.

"Congratulations, you have become Xiaoqi, just like Zhang Mingyu." Bai Hua said sincerely. "It just so happens that you are building a workshop now. In the future, your 'Baolu Group' will be another stronghold of the Secret Investigation Department in Jizhou."

"Why!" Chu Qing's voice suddenly became louder: "You use me, but also use my place?"

"Otherwise, how could you become Xiaoqi directly? This is from the seventh rank. From now on, your salary will be collected in the backyard here." Bai Hua said disapprovingly.

"Isn't it because I saved Master Hong?!" Chu Qing refused.

"Ah, this..." Bai Hua murmured, "It's all the same." It was clear that the Secret Investigation Department wanted to take advantage of Chu Qing.

"As agreed, it's okay to use my place, but if it delays my business, I would rather fight to the death with you!" Chu Qing threatened. What else can you do if you are under the eaves.

"This is for you," Bai Hua handed over a 10-tael silver note, "it should be considered as a congratulatory gift to congratulate you on your move to a new house. It's time for me to leave. I can't catch up with the day of your move."

"Oh?" Are you leaving? Suddenly, I feel that the kid in front of me is not so annoying anymore.

"I and several members of the Intelligence Department were sent to Dong Lun Country. I don't know when we will see you next time. Congratulations in advance." Bai Hua explained, "In the future, the exchange of news between the two countries will inevitably go through your Baolu Group. You won't have anything

It’s dangerous, just wait for our people to contact you.”

"Okay." Chu Qing took out the bamboo pen and ink bottle he carried with him and handed them over: "This is a return gift for you. It's quite useful to write a small note."

"It's a good thing, it can also kill people." Bai Hua took it with a smile.

…………

When Chu Qing finished moving, Village Chief Wu came over and handed Chu Qing a piece of paper: "So I should call you Mrs. Chu."

Chu Qing took it and it was a "household sticker", which is equivalent to the modern household registration book. It said "Chu family" on it. "I live outside and used my mother's surname. I hope you can forgive me." Chu Qing felt blessed and made it up smoothly.

What a lie.

"I'm sorry," Village Chief Wu said. "It's not easy when there's war and chaos. I'll also tell the villagers to change their names in the future. Besides, now that you have the household registration of our village, we will be closer in the future."

"

After seeing off Village Chief Wu, Chu Qing closed the door and tried on the clothes she received today. This is the uniform of the Secret Investigation Department, which is only worn on formal occasions, men's style, small size.

The black robe has silver dark patterns on it, a black leather belt with green sandalwood embossing, red underwear and black deerskin boots underneath.

Chu Qing put all the weapons on, and then inserted the dagger into the boot. Well, it also has an edge.

He looked in the mirror and felt a little awkward. The hairstyle didn't match. Chu Qing untied his hair and tied it in a bun on top of his head like a man. Only then did he see that there was still a hat on. Put on the black hard-shell hat.

, my God! I’m a little doubtful about life.

Chu Qing's face has some bony lines, especially the lower jaw, which has just the right angle and obvious lines. Although it does not conform to the aesthetics of this era and has a somewhat "girlish-male look", in modern times, it can be considered a "high-end face".

Wearing this outfit now, you look so heroic, it's hard to tell whether you're male or female. If you had a narrow knife on your waist and a folding fan dangling from your hand... ugh!

Xiaobao held the snacks and opened his mouth, looking at Chu Qing without blinking.

"Am I handsome? Am I invincible in the universe, super cool, and domineering?" Chu Qing was very proud! Xiaobao nodded fiercely and got rid of all the snack residue on his mouth.

She was born to look like this clothes. Thinking like this, Chu Qing became unhappy again. Who wants to be a trick? After changing her clothes angrily, Chu Qing opened the door and went out.

She went to find Baijia. Because she had the official establishment of the Secret Investigation Department, Chu Qing felt even more insecure. She wanted Baijia to dig a basement in her own warehouse. It would be best if she didn't have to use it. Everything was arranged.

, Chu Qing took Xiaobao to the back mountain to relax.

After putting the little treasure into the basket, Chu Qing also took the dagger from the Secret Investigation Department with him. If he didn't have it, forget it. Since he had it, he had to bring it with him.

Xiaobao sat comfortably in the basket. This basket was specially customized by Chu Qing for him. It was larger and sturdier than the original one. A small bamboo stool was tied inside, and there was a cloth strap at the waist of the basket to tie Xiaobao's legs.

Waist. Chu Qing told him that this is called a seat belt.

Xiaobao put his pocket bag across his shoulders so that he could grab food at any time. He put a palm-sized gourd on his lap filled with light salt water.

Chu Qing weighed the basket on his back. It weighed about thirty kilograms. This weight-bearing mountaineering was a good endurance training. This time when he came out, Chu Qing set a goal for himself, looking for dead trees. Last time, Baijia said that they

The dead trees found on the mountain were used as lumber. Chu Qing didn't know where to find them, so he wanted to take a good look at the mountain this time.

Taking action with a goal, he soon forgot all about the Secret Reconnaissance Department. There was no rest in the middle, and when Chu Qing reached the top of the mountain, he was already out of breath. Fortunately, the mountain was not high.

Put Xiaobao down and take Xiaobao to see the mountains... high! There are lush trees here, and there are green trees in front of and behind you. Birds fly by from time to time, causing Xiaobao to keep looking up.

I didn't see any dead trees, but I saw patches of wild strawberries on the ground. Chu Qing and Xiaobao picked a lot of the big ones.

After this area of ​​strawberries, there are a few scattered wild cherry trees. The small cherries are not very red, but mostly yellow-red. Chu Qing picked one and tasted it. It tasted so good! Despite its size, it was only Xiaobao's.

It's about the size of a fingertip, and its taste is incomparable to that of cherries.

Hearing the sound of water, Chu Qing took Xiaobao to look for it, and saw a small stream with gurgling water that was very clear. Chu Qing and Xiaobao washed the sweat off their faces with the stream water, and then put some on the cherries and strawberries.

After rinsing off the dust, he sat on a stone by the stream and had a good meal.

Chu Qing's pocket contains a lot of dried meat, which he bought in the county town. It's a bit expensive. But Chu Qing doesn't feel bad. He's been here for so long, why can't he eat something good?

Dried meat, small wild fruits, Xiaobao's emoticon snacks, and the cool stream water really made me feel comfortable. While eating, Chu Qing admired the surrounding vegetation, and then sadly discovered that he had lost his way. The way he came had disappeared.

.

"Xiaobao, I seem to be lost." Chu Qing told Xiaobao this discovery.

Xiaobao stood up, looked around, then walked east and west, trying to find traces of being stepped on on the ground.

How can it be so easy to find? There are branches and leaves on the ground. It’s hard to see where the footprints are. Xiaobao suddenly raised his head and looked in one direction. Chu Qing followed and looked. After taking a few breaths, Chu Qing heard some noise.

The voices gradually came closer. Xiaobao's hearing is really good.

Chu Qing looked around. There was no place to hide, so he wanted to climb a tree. Xiaobao pulled her. Chu Qing listened carefully, and the voice was close. It seemed that someone's voice sounded familiar. The two stood there.

Didn't move.

By the time they recognized Song Tingshan's voice, they could already see Song Tingshan and his group slowly climbing up.

"Master Song." Chu Qingfu greeted him.

"Hey, Yuan... Madam Chu," Song Tingshan greeted warmly. It seems that Song Tingshan had already known about the name change of Chuqing's settlement through the county government.

"Master Song, what is this?" Chu Qing asked.

"Let me introduce you first," Mr. Song motioned to look at the two people behind him: "These two are Mr. Li Langzhong and Mr. Zhao Yuanwai from the Yu Department. These two adults have reviewed the Kanyu division of Donglun and us.

The Feng Shui master has searched the top of the mountain, but still cannot determine the location of the iron mine. I just have time today, so I came to explore this mountain. The mountains in this area have not been explored yet."

"Master Li, Master Zhao." Chu Qing saluted. Who is this official!

The two officials snorted twice without even looking at each other. The attendants around them shouted: "Why don't you kneel before the official?!"

Chu Qing frowned slightly. Not from this dynasty, he really didn't know that he had to kneel before an official. His knees didn't develop this habit. Xiaobao rolled his eyes silently.
Chapter completed!
