When the morning sun rose into the sky and slowly washed away the blush, revealing the golden sunshine, Su Yu and the other two got up and washed up. After breakfast, they sat in the back garden of Wang's house and basked in the sun leisurely.
"Cousin, why don't we go back today?"
Chen Beijiang couldn't help but ask.
I thought I would rush to Tai'an City after breakfast today, but Ji Longcheng said that he was too busy on the way here and needed to rest in Pingtian Town for a few days.
This left both Su Yu and Chen Beijiang a little confused, not understanding Ji Longcheng's intentions.
"Cousin, this is another thing I want to teach you."
Basking in the warm sun, Ji Longcheng squinted his eyes and said leisurely: "Now our mission has been completed."
"If we go back and hand over the task today, what awaits us in the next month is to patrol the streets of Tai'an City every day."
"Do you think it's better to patrol the streets boringly every day, or to experience life in Pingtian Town?"
After hearing Ji Longcheng's words, both Chen Beijiang and Su Yu looked a little strange.
Is this how Co-author Zhen Wuwei fishes?
But what Ji Longcheng said is not wrong.
After returning to hand over the task, what awaits them will be a boring street patrol.
Rather than patrolling the streets, it would be better to stay in Pingtian Town and go back in a few days.
Especially now that the three of them have rescued Wang Yuanwai's granddaughter, Wang Yuanwai almost wants to serve the three of them.
In this case, it is natural to postpone it for one day and then go back.
Having said this, Ji Longcheng couldn't help but look at Su Yu, and said with a mischievous smile: "Brother Su, for such a beautiful girl like Miss Wang, I didn't expect that you would reject her offer of marriage on the spot. What do you think?"
When Chen Beijiang heard this, he couldn't help but look at Su Yu.
Facing their gazes, Su Yu smiled and said: "I don't have any bad thoughts towards Miss Wang. As I said yesterday, rescuing Miss Wang is our duty as the Suppressing Guards. How can we show our kindness?"
Seeking retribution?”
After hearing Su Yu's words, both of them looked at him with disdain, obviously not believing the reason he said.
Su Yu continued: "My father was a Zhenwu Guard. He bought a house in Tai'an City in order to make money as soon as possible. He died in the line of duty a few years after I was born."
"My mother later became depressed and became ill, and died a few years after my father died in the line of duty."
"Although I became a military guard like my father, I really cannot bear the responsibility of supporting my family. I am also worried that I will die in the line of duty one day and delay my wife."
Su Yu told what he said as half truth and half falsehood.
He currently does not have enough power to protect himself. If he accidentally exposes the secret of immortality, he will fall into a situation that is beyond redemption.
As long as he continues to live, there will be more and more secrets in him.
If he had to be on guard against his partner all the time, that was not the life Su Yu wanted to live.
As for women, there are many places to have sex, and as long as you have money, you can have sex every night.
In this world, a man can have three wives and four concubines as long as he can afford them.
Su Yu naturally envied that kind of life, but now was not the time for him to plan that kind of life.
After listening to Su Yu's words, Chen Beijiang and Ji Longcheng both looked sad.
For ordinary people, this Zhenwusi position is indeed a turning point.
But for wealthy people, it is just an important channel for them to expand their network of contacts.
Because the family behind them is already rich enough, there is no need to sacrifice their lives for the reward of that mission.
This also led to polarization in Zhenwu Division.
The poor desperately accepted the task and hoped to turn over as soon as possible.
On the other hand, the kids from the rich family are leisurely fishing, thinking about making one more friend in the Zhenwu Division all day long, and only completing the minimum tasks every month.
If possible, they can even delegate this task to others.
Ji Longcheng sighed softly and said: "Zhenwusi is like this. It can turn you over in just a few years, and it can also make your bones melt away in just a few years."
"In this short life, I don't know where I came from or where I'm going."
"You can only do more things that you think are meaningful in your limited life."
Chen Beijiang echoed: "Yes, this life is too short."
For you, life is indeed short, but for an immortal person, it is very long. It is so long that I even want to reach the top of martial arts.
Su Yu cursed in his heart.
As Ji Longcheng said, people must do something meaningful in this life.
For Su Yu, women, wealth, and power are just accessories.
In the year since he traveled to this world, he had already made great wishes in his heart.
He hoped that one day he could reach the pinnacle of martial arts and enter the Martial Emperor realm that no one in the world had ever entered.
With his system, he doesn't need any cultivation resources. As long as he can live in a stable world for hundreds of years, he can reach that point.
Of course, all this is based on the fact that he can live a stable life and will not die at the hands of others.
"By the way, when I was sorting out the file report, I suddenly thought of a question."
Ji Longcheng looked at the two people and couldn't help but said: "When we go back to hand over the task, only two people can obtain the ninth level meritorious service. There are five low-grade Yuanjing as rewards for this task."
"Have you ever thought about who quits to receive the meritorious service, and who gets the Yuan Jing?"
When Su Yu and Chen Beijiang heard this, their faces were startled.
If Ji Longcheng hadn't mentioned it, they really wouldn't have thought about it.
"Of course, meritorious service is definitely more important than Yuan Jing, so those who receive meritorious service also need to make some compensation."
Ji Longcheng added: "Based on the fact that five eighth-level meritorious deeds can be exchanged for a yellow-level elementary martial arts skill, the price of a yellow-level elementary martial arts skill is five hundred yuan crystals."
"Five eighth-level meritorious service is fifty ninth-level meritorious service."
"A ninth-level meritorious service is worth two hundred taels of silver."
"Five pieces of low-grade Yuan Jing are worth one hundred taels of silver."
"In other words, for those who don't want meritorious service, the other two people will each subsidize fifty taels of silver."
Chen Beijiang couldn't help but hesitate.
He is not short of money, so he is naturally more inclined to obtain ninth-level meritorious service.
As long as you accumulate enough meritorious deeds, you will have the opportunity to be promoted to captain, which is something that money cannot compare with.
Five pieces of low-grade Yuan Jing, one hundred taels of silver, Su Yu said: "I don't want that meritorious service."
He needs to use money to buy supplements to improve his attribute points, and he also needs to buy monster meat to try to see if he can use monster meat to improve his attribute points.
These all require money to maintain.
As for meritorious service, he is not interested in this stuff.
Once he reaches a higher level in martial arts, he can directly receive higher-level tasks and obtain higher-level merits.
However, it really amazed him that a ninth-level meritorious service could be worth so much money.
After this mission, the Yuan Jing, meritorious service, and the extra reward given by the king all added up to three hundred taels of silver.
After traveling to this world for a year, he has never fought such a rich battle.
I didn't expect that I would earn such a huge fortune on the second day after joining the Zhenwu Division.
It’s hard to imagine that the rewards for those dangerous tasks would be even higher.
"Now that everyone has discussed it, it's settled."
Ji Longcheng smiled and said: "Beijiang and I will each subsidize Brother Su fifty taels of silver."
"This mission was completed smoothly, so we should celebrate."
Chen Beijiang asked in confusion: "How to celebrate?"
"Hey, of course I want to listen to the music."
Ji Longcheng smiled and said: "Although there is only one street running through the whole town in Pingtian Town, there is a goulan and a brothel at the same time. This shows that the people here are wealthy. Otherwise, it is rare for a small town to be able to afford a brothel. We must do it tonight.
Come and experience the humanities and customs of this small town.”
"As promised in advance, everyone will do his own thing!"
Su Yu: "."
Chen Beijiang: "."
Is it true that no matter where you go, you have to make outstanding contributions to the local romantic scene?
Wang Shiyun's words last night about wanting to be a cow and a horse in her next life to repay her kindness undoubtedly made Ji Longcheng feel very hurt. He urgently needed to go to a brothel to regain some confidence and relieve the tense nerves after last night's fierce battle.
