In the world of Middle-earth, if the people at the bottom want to change their destiny, martial arts breakthrough is the fastest way. If the noble princes want to continue their glory, they also need strong people to emerge in large numbers.
Every year, the County Zong Martial Arts Competition is a grand event that attracts the attention of all parties outside the city. Being able to enter the Nanmeng Martial Arts Academy is very dazzling!
What's more, it's a sect's special move that rarely happens once in ten years from the city?
It should be noted that a few days ago, there were many rumors circulating about Wu Yuan's examination at the County Zongwu Academy. Today, after it was confirmed by the County Sheriff's Office, it naturally spread like the wind!
"Special move? What is a special move?"
"Normally, if you want to enter the Yunwu Hall, you must go through the martial arts competition. The special move is because the talent is too high. Those with high talent do not need to go through the regular competition and can directly enter the Yunwu Palace!"
"I, the Wu family, will be prosperous!"
The entire Wu family in Licheng, after receiving the exact news from the officials of the county governor's office, was completely excited and fell into unprecedented celebrations, just like celebrating three major festivals. The previous events of Zhuangzi being conquered and many clan members were killed were swept away.
haze.
A strong martial artist can change the fate of a family with just one word!
…
Leaving the city, east of the city.
There is a large mansion with a vast area only 200 meters away from the Sheriff's Mansion. The plaque has been changed to 'Wu Mansion'!
Wu Yuan, his mother Wan Qin, his sister Wu Yijun, the patriarchs Wu Qiming, Wu Dongyao, Wu Long, Wu Liuye, etc. all gathered here.
Of course, there is also Guji who has changed into butler attire.
In addition to the Wu family members, there were also the county governor Jiangdongque, the county lieutenant and many other high-ranking officials from the city present.
"Chief Jiang, according to the law, a medium-sized mansion will suffice." Wu Yuan shook his head.
"Haha, the sect's law also stipulates that if there is no suitable medium-sized mansion, you can also live in a large mansion." Jiang Dongque said with a smile, looking very kind: "Wu Xiaoyou is now specially recruited to join the sect. After a few years, he will be successful in martial arts. According to the law,
If you want to move into a large mansion, it's better to do it in one step to avoid trouble."
"Okay, thank you so much, Sheriff." Wu Yuan smiled.
Never refuse the other party's kindness again.
The Hengyun Sect has built many large-scale mansions, medium-sized mansions, and small-scale mansions in various prefectures and counties to accommodate the lives of its members and their families, and they are distributed in order according to their status.
The larger the mansion, the closer it is to the garrison barracks and the governor's mansion, which means the higher the status of the owner of the mansion.
It will also be safer!
Once you leave office, you have to give up your mansion. Like the "Guan Zishan" in Dongye County, even if you leave office and return to your hometown, most of your family members will also move back to Dongye County.
Of course, if you make great achievements, you can also expect to obtain permanent residency.
But this is very difficult!
The two sides communicated for a while, and then the county guard, county lieutenant and others wisely chose to leave, leaving room for everyone in the Wu family to communicate.
"When I was selected as a scholar, there were over a hundred people in that class. The county guard only came to encourage us and never spoke to the county guard alone." Wu Dongyao sighed: "But Wu Yuan asked the county guard to take the initiative to come to congratulate us.
,court!"
"The special move is different." Wu Long said solemnly: "With Wu Yuan's talent, he is expected to become a first-class master in the future."
Sheriff, one term of four years.
There are usually only one or two first-class masters in a county.
In the world of Middle-earth, scholars can take the imperial examination, and are expected to become governors, with a status as high as that of first-class masters.
But in the final analysis, the terrifying strength of martial arts masters, the individual power is greater than that of the group.
Wen is only an auxiliary, martial arts is the core!
"Patriarch, although I will still be at home for a while, after returning from Nanmeng Mansion, I will set off for the sect headquarters." Wu Yuan said softly: "The mansion is huge. After all, my mother does not have enough vision. She needs you to worry more, Patriarch.
The chief of the clan will go with you to the banquet held by the governor and his companions these two days."
"Wu Yuan, don't worry." Wu Qiming saw Wu Yuan finally expressed his stance and said solemnly: "I will always pay attention to my mother's health, and I will do my best to educate Yijun."
Wu Yuan smiled.
He believed that Wu Qiming was a smart man and there was no need to say anything out loud.
The weak need help from the clan, but for the top martial arts experts, the clan is a hindrance.
Wu Yuan introduced Wu Qiming to the banquet as a gesture.
Most of the rights originally belonging to ‘Wan Qin’ will be handed over to ‘Wu Qiming’.
In the future, Wu Qiming will act on behalf of "Wu Yuan" in Licheng. It is foreseeable that the Wu family's power will expand rapidly.
Apart from anything else, with Wu Yuan's endorsement, as long as Wu Yuan survives and his status within the sect becomes higher and higher, all the yamen in Li City will not embarrass the Wu family too much in the future.
This alone can save Wu's business a lot of money and trouble.
What Wu Qiming has to do is to take good care of Wan Qin and Wu Yijun!
"Brother, the yard here is so big, bigger than the patriarch's yard." Wu Yijun jumped out of the mansion, looking extremely excited.
"Haha." Everyone in the Wu family couldn't help laughing.
The Wu family's ancestral residence is comparable to the medium-sized mansions in the east area of the city.
In terms of value? Not even a small mansion can match it!
What's more, it's a large mansion in the east of the city?
Being able to stay here means that you have entered the ranks of Licheng's 'top dignitaries'!
...Wu Yuan arranged every aspect of the mansion.
The outer courtyard is basically left to the "Wu clan" to take care of, and the inner house will be used as the living place for Wan Qin and Wu Yijun.
"Mom, are you dissatisfied with me letting the clan leader handle these matters?" Wu Yuan asked.
"How can you be dissatisfied?" Wan Qin shook his head and said with emotion: "Today, there are hundreds of greeting cards sent, and they are all from luxurious and wealthy families. How can I, an ignorant woman, handle it? I just remember the names.
Can’t live.”
"You asked the patriarch to deal with it, the arrangement is very good." Wan Qin said with a smile: "Besides, the patriarch and the family have helped us a lot over the years, and one must not forget his roots."
Wu Yuan nodded slightly.
In the process of your own rise, you always need to use people.
Rather than relying on outsiders, it’s better to trust your tribe!
"Mom, you first get familiar with the environment here. If you have any ideas, just tell the stewards directly. I will take the clan leader to the banquet first." Wu Yuan stood up.
…
To celebrate "Wu Yuan's special move", the county governor Jiang Dongque specially arranged a grand banquet in the county governor's mansion to entertain Wu Yuan.
This is a sign that Wu has truly entered the upper class society in Licheng.
It wasn't until late at night that all the guests dispersed.
The gate of the Sheriff's Mansion.
Jiang Dongque watched Wu's carriage in the distance, turned the corner of the street, and the smile at the corner of his mouth subsided.
"Sir, although Wu Yuan is a specially recruited disciple, he is still just a martial arts master now, and most of them will only become second-rate masters in the future." Dian Shi on the side was a little confused: "What impact can it have on us? Why is it so grand?"
"He was only an eighth-grade warrior four or five months ago." Jiang Dongque said lightly: "He is only fourteen years old this year!"
Classical history is stifling.
What shocked them most about Wu Yuan was his terrifying progress speed.
"His strength does not have much influence on me, but how can I know what he will achieve in the future?" Jiang Dongque said: "If he becomes a first-class master and is willing to return to his hometown in the future, he may serve as a general or a general of the guard!"
"It won't be of any use to me then, but what about me, the Jiang family?"
Dianshi nodded, still feeling that Jiangdong Que was making a fuss out of a molehill.
The sect has many top-notch masters, how many of them can become generals or generals of guard?
Jiang Dongque glanced at him and was too lazy to explain.
"Gao Yu is the Dharma Protector of the Caigong Hall. How famous is he? He values Wu Yuan so much. Is he an ordinary specially recruited disciple?" Jiang Dongque said secretly.
He celebrated so grandly and used all the sect's resources, so he didn't lose anything.
Why not?
…
Guard the General's Mansion.
"General, all the officials in the city, and all the major families have gone." Liu Ye bowed slightly and said, "According to your order, several of our commanders have also gone to congratulate you."
"Okay, I understand, go down and rest!" Xu Shouyi said softly.
Willow Leaf retreated.
"This Wu Yuan has indeed become a specially recruited disciple. So Jiang Dongque is so solemn, does he know the inside story?" Xu Shouyi felt troubled in his heart: "This Wu Yuan is really a threat."
Although the last assassination was very careful, there was no possibility of directly revealing the identity.
But Xu Shouyi knew in his heart that Wu Yuan would most likely guess that it was him!
"snort!"
"So what if you hate me?" Xu Shouyi's eyes were cold: "No matter how talented you are, you will become a first-class master in the future, but you can't deal with me without proof."
…
Leaving the city, in the south of the city, in an inconspicuous mansion, there are many men with serious expressions, obviously well-trained.
nave.
Whoosh! A short, fat, muscular man walked in.
"Junior brother."
The elegant white-robed man in the room turned around and said with a smile, "You are finally back."
"These days, I have been searching in various villages and towns outside the city, Zhuangzi, but I have not found any trace of the mysterious gunman." The short, fat and sturdy man picked up the kettle and took a sip: "And from the 'Star Tower' to the Seven Star Tower
'Judging from the purchase information, there are no similar martial arts masters in the entire Nanmeng Mansion."
"You are in the city, how is the search going?" the short, fat and sturdy man asked.
"Gao Yu is here." The elegant man in white robe said.
"What?" The short, fat and sturdy man was startled: "Why did he suddenly come to Licheng? Is it possible that the Hengyun Sect also knew about the Chujiang Order?"
"possible!"
The elegant man in white robe nodded: "However, it may also be for another matter. Today, Hengyun Sect specially recruited a disciple in Licheng, named Wu Yuan. He has the strength of a martial arts master at the age of fourteen."
"A fourteen-year-old martial artist?"
The short, fat and sturdy man said nonchalantly: "My talent is not bad, if I work hard, I can hope to become a first-class expert before I'm thirty."
The elegant man in white robe nodded, he didn't care much about Wu Yuan.
A first-class expert?
More than one top-notch master died in the hands of their brothers.
"Let's search for a while longer." The elegant white-robed man said, "If you still can't find any clues, go back and report to Master."
…
In an inconspicuous Zhuangzi about twenty miles away from the city.
It looks ordinary on the surface, but who would know about it from the outside? This place will be a stronghold of the Jin Empire in the Hengyun Sect.
"Specially recruited disciple? A fourteen-year-old martial artist? He is a little genius!" The evil young man in blood-red clothes said to himself in a low voice, listening to the report from his subordinates.
"Guo Liu, what will you do according to your rules?" The evil young man looked at the respectful middle-aged man in black robe.
"grown ups!"
The middle-aged man in black robe smiled bitterly: "Our branch mainly focuses on 'spying intelligence', and its force is not very strong. There are only a few third-rate warriors. For such specially recruited disciples, the Hengyun Sect's protection must be very strong. We
Usually we just report the information and wait for orders from above."
"Waiting for orders?"
"We're all waiting for orders from above. The water of the Chu River has flowed into the sea!" The evil young man shook his head slightly: "Well, since I passed by, I will conveniently remove a genius from the Hengyun Sect and remove some obstacles for me to unify the world of the Jin Dynasty."
"In the past few days, mobilize all your strength to investigate Wu Yuan's whereabouts."
"If I look for an opportunity, I will take action myself."
