"After more than two years of hard training, it's finally time to prove the results in actual combat!" Qin Ziling nodded with a somewhat emotional expression.
"Yes, the hard training over the past two years was very effective at first. Later, when they realized that there was an invisible hand protecting them, the effect slowly declined.
And alien beasts are alien beasts after all, and they can’t compare to the cunning and insidiousness of humans. If it weren’t for my identity that prevents me from moving around easily, I would have wanted to visit Jiugao County,” Xiao Qing said.
"You are already in the late stage of bone refining, and your strength is even higher than Pang Qiyun, who was once the number one young person in the martial arts world in Xiyun Prefecture. The demon and bandit suppression operations arranged by Jin Yichen are of your level.
How much training effect can the characters take?
In fact, the current scale cannot have a great tempering effect on Senior Brother Zheng's martial arts. The purpose of sending him to lead the team this time is actually to avoid unnecessary casualties and also to allow him to experience more complex and changeable situations.
Familiarize yourself with the outside environment and prepare for the future." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
Zheng Xinghan was a late bloomer, and his relationship with Qin Ziling was as close as brothers. Qin Ziling naturally cared about him the most. In the past two years, he not only secretly trained him many times, but also supplemented the bone refining secret medicine and even the fifth-grade exotic beasts.
A lot of blood yuan was given to him.
Zheng Xinghan did not live up to Qin Ziling's kindness, and at the beginning of the year he finally broke through and became a great martial arts master in the late stage of bone refining.
Now the number of bone refining masters under Qin Ziling's account has reached twelve.
But there are only two great martial arts masters in the later stage of bone refining, Xiao Qing and Zheng Xinghan.
Of the remaining ten people, there are only two in the middle stage of bone refining, namely Shao'e and Zuo Le.
"By the way, there are rumors circulating in Zhoucheng these days that the governor intends to transfer me to serve in Jiugao County. What do you think?" Xiao Qing asked.
"Is Fangshan County bad?" Qin Ziling asked without answering.
"I knew you would answer this." Xiao Qing smiled and said, "I think so too. Although Jiugao County is a large county, the forces of all parties are also very complex. The Governor's Mansion, the Governor's Mansion, and local forces
Everyone is fighting for power, otherwise we would not have caused such natural and man-made disasters and made the people miserable.
I have no foundation there. If I really want to go, if I don't use thunderous means, I can only be a useless county guard. If I use thunderous means, my strength will be exposed, the tree will attract the wind, and it will arouse the fear of the governor's office and the governor's office.
It's better to stay in Fangshan County honestly. Let them understand that I have no ambitions. I just want to hold on to this little territory of Fangshan County and run this small place well. Everything else has nothing to do with me. They will treat me thoroughly.
not worried."
"Haha, actually, we already have Jin Yichen in Jiugao County, and we have the Cui family and Jin Jianzong in Qinghe County, so why do we need you to make a high-profile appearance!
As for Fangshan County, no matter how much you mess with it, in their eyes it is just a small place with poor mountains and rivers, and what achievements can you make! They will not understand that the place is dead, the people are alive, and the talents are the
most important!
As long as we have talented people, our influence can extend to a wider world like tentacles. Fangshan County is just the starting point." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
"Who else is not focused on the territory and interests in front of them, how can they see as clearly and far-reaching as Mr. Qin!" Xia Yan stood up and poured tea for Qin Ziling and said, looking at him with eyes full of tenderness and admiration.
.
Qin Ziling enjoyed Xia Yan's words and eyes very much. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at her proud part. His heart moved, but considering that he hadn't practiced yet, he didn't dare to take a closer look and quickly withdrew his gaze.
As soon as Qin Ziling looked away, he saw Xiao Qing looking at him with meaningful eyes.
"By the way, is Aunt Yun's business satisfactory?" Qin Ziling felt guilty when Xiao Qing saw it, and quickly changed the subject.
Jin Yichen was transferred to Jiugao County as Guan Gou of Guan Gou Mansion, and the position of Guan Gou in Fangshan County became vacant.
The Guan Gou Mansion has a special status, so Xiao Qing naturally does not want to fall into the hands of outsiders and have another pair of eyes watching her territory.
Therefore, when Jin Yichen was about to be transferred to Guan Gou Mansion, he recommended to his superiors that Yun Xiwu, who had been recruited by him to Guan Gou Mansion and held the position of Guan Goucheng, should take over his position.
On the other hand, Xiao Qing also asked two inspectors, Wei Yufu and Zhu Huiqin, who had friendship with each other, to come forward and help.
The status of Fangshan County in the entire Xiyun Prefecture is actually equivalent to that of a more prosperous large county, except that the area is relatively vast.
And because there are no qi refining sects or families, its status in the qi refining world of Xiyun Prefecture is actually not as good as that of a large county.
Therefore, Guan Gou Bai Xiuqi, who was in charge of Guan Gou Mansion in Fangshan County at that time, was only in the late stage of true power, and was not even a great qi refiner.
After Bai Xiuqi's death, no one was willing to take up a post in Fangshan County, so the magistrate's office made the appointment casually. Jin Yichen, who was also in the late stage of Zhenli, took over Bai Xiuqi's position as Guan Gou.
Therefore, the Guan Gou Mansion in Fangshan County may appear to be a Guan Gou Mansion, but in fact it has almost no weight for the Magistrate's Mansion.
This is also easy to understand. A Qi Refiner in the late stage of true power is basically a small person compared to a master like Zhuge Yunjin.
Therefore, upon Jin Yichen's recommendation, Xiao Qing did some more work, and the magistrate's office simply sold their favor and appointed Yun Xiwu as the governor of Fangshan County and the governor of Gou Mansion.
Of course, Yun Xiwu has been vigorously cultivated in recent years, and his cultivation has reached the late stage of true power, and he is qualified to sit in the position of Guan Gou of Fangshan County.
Just because of his mediocre talent, Yun Xiwu still has some way to go before he can break through to the realm of true essence.
Now, just waiting for her to get ready, Qin Ziling is going to give her a middle-grade Huayuan Pill to help her.
Anyway, Qin Ziling is not short of "money" now, and Yun Xiwu is one of his own who can truly be fully trusted. Even if his talent is mediocre, he must still be given priority.
"You know what you're asking, now that Guan Gou Mansion is ours, what's wrong with it?" Xiao Qing rolled her eyes at Qin Ziling and said.
"That's right, by the way, let her look for children with the potential to refine Qi. How is the recent progress?" Qin Ziling smiled and then asked.
"We have found some seedlings and taught them the method of cultivating qi and unblocking meridians. Yesterday she told me that including the children Jin Yichen helped find before he left, there are now fifty people with the talent of refining qi, but the talent
There are only two outstanding ones at the moment." Xiao Qing replied.
"That's not bad. After all, we have just started in Qi Refining. Those two children with outstanding talents must increase their efforts in cultivating them. Cultivate the others as well as they can." Qin Ziling thought for a while and said.
Just as Qin Ziling finished speaking, a bird with a body as green as jade flew down on Xiao Qing's shoulder.
This little bird is called the Black Kingfisher. It looks small, but it is actually an exotic bird. Its small beak is so sharp and hard that it can peck a hole in iron armor.
Because the island is in the center of Yunluo Lake, it is inconvenient to send messages to the shore, so Qin Ziling found a way to bring over a few black kingfishers, tame them with the method of the soul, and use them to send messages.
"Zhu Huiqin is here to visit, do you want to go back with me?" Xiao Qing took off the note tied to Xuan Kingfisher's foot, glanced at it, then raised his eyes to Qin Ziling and said.
"I wish Huiqin is a nice person and a friend you recognize now. As a husband, I should go and meet her." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
Qin Ziling and Xiao Qing had already paid homage to Qin Mansion privately, but the people who participated and knew about it were their own people, and the outside world didn't know.
Of course, the two have not consummated their marriage yet.
"Are you ready to reveal your identity to the public?" Xiao Qing cast a sidelong glance at Qin Ziling.
"Actually, I came to prominence in the battle in Qinghe County more than two years ago, and some people must have guessed that your rise was related to me. It's just that I was seriously injured in that battle, so people soon stopped paying attention to me.
But Zhu Huiqin is your friend. She has frequent contacts with you now and is the leader of the eight inspectors. If I never come out to meet her, it seems a bit disrespectful to her! As for your identity, you decide." Qin Ziling.
said.
"Yes." Xiao Qing nodded and said, "She actually had some rumors about you. After all, in the battle of Qinghe County, your performance was too dazzling. You were able to kill Wen Chuansen at the age of only twenty-one. Follow up.
Then you injured Hou Yuehong again. If many powerful figures at the time hadn't witnessed your serious injury, and you had been completely dormant for more than two years, how could the outside world have forgotten you?"
"It's good to forget about it! If you forget about it, I can do more things." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
While he was talking, three blood goshawks were like three red clouds, floating down from the sky.
"The art of the soul is really mysterious!" Although he had seen this scene many times, Xiao Qing still couldn't bear to see Qin Ziling chatting and laughing with him again, but he had summoned three tame blood goshawks over there.
I felt emotional for a while.
"That's all the magic of the soul. The main thing is that the person who uses the magic of the soul is good." Qin Ziling said with a sultry look.
Xiao Qing rolled her eyes at Qin Ziling when she heard this, while Xia Yan pursed her lips and smiled: "Of course Mr. Qin is the most powerful!"
"Haha!" Qin Ziling laughed loudly when he saw the two men's different behaviors, and flew up to a blood goshawk.
When Xiao Qing and Xia Yan saw this, they each got a blood goshawk.
Soon the Blood Goshawk spread its wings and soared into the sky, disappearing over Yunluo Lake in the blink of an eye.
…
Sheriff's Mansion, back garden.
"Could this person be in Qinghe County..." Zhu Huiqin looked at the handsome young man next to Xiao Qing and said unsurely.
"Yes, he is Qin Ziling, and he is also my husband." Xiao Qing said with a smile.
"Is he your husband?" Zhu Huiqin couldn't help but look surprised when she heard this, and then a look of regret flashed across her eyes.
"I'm sorry, because he doesn't like publicity, so he didn't tell Sister Zhu until now, and asked Sister Zhu to help keep it secret for the time being." Xiao Qing said with a hint of apology.
"In today's world, when there is not enough strength to support it, it is a good thing to keep a low profile." Zhu Huiqin nodded.
Then, Zhu Huiqin and Qin Ziling formally met and greeted each other, then walked through a corridor built on an artificial lake and came to a pavilion in the center of the lake to sit down.
"I came to Fangshan County this time to say goodbye to you." After sitting down, Zhu Huiqin said.
