Lin Ji's answer obviously exceeded Fang Yunshan's expectations.
In his opinion, this is not what a subordinate should say.
"It seems that you really have no intention of pursuing an official career." Fang Yunshan laughed and shook his head, still pointing at the map.
"A small map directs thousands of monks from all over Kyushu to run around. Do you really not envy this kind of power?"
Lin Ji shook his head.
I really don't envy you at all.
He could tell that Fang Yunshan had been inspecting him these days, often asking for his opinion before giving orders.
But compared to this so-called power, Lin Ji felt that it would be better to sleep comfortably with Zhong Xiaoyan in her arms.
Fang Yunshan was not annoyed when he saw this, and said with a low smile: "You are a pure monk by nature. Supervisor Tiansi may be too complicated for you. I can see that you are always cautious when you are around me. You are on guard."
What?"
"My lord, I have never been wary of you, but I am just careful when sailing a thousand-year-old ship. I am a slow-mouthed person and am afraid of saying the wrong thing." Lin Ji said calmly, "My lord, I understand that misfortune comes from the mouth."
Fang Yunshan nodded slightly, and then said: "But you are right, you should be more cautious. The fourth-grade beheading officer has the power of life and death. What he says and does is the law of the country, so it is better to be cautious in what he says and does.
right way."
Lin Ji raised his eyebrows and looked at Fang Yunshan.
Fang Yunshan continued: "Unlike those monks who come from sects and aristocratic families, your position as a fourth-grade military attache is enough to put you in the sight of many people. When the matter in Weizhou is over, you will go to the capital to work as a errand. Where can you
If you’ve been there, you should know that it’s a mixed bag.”
While saying this, Fang Yunshan took out a token from his arms.
The golden token has a dragon pattern on the back and the word 'judgement' engraved on the front.
"The order of judgment, the token of the fourth-grade beheading officer, is yours." Fang Yunshan handed the token to Lin Ji.
Lin Ji did not answer.
"After what you said earlier, I don't know whether I should accept the token or not."
Fang Yunshan said dissatisfied: "What are you doing coquettishly at this time? Do you think the beheading order was given casually? For a fourth-grade military attache, it can only be decided after the Holy Lord personally sees it. This order was sent from the capital! Your name
It has been recorded on the rosters of the Supervisory Office and the Ministry of Civil Affairs! Are you trying to disobey the order and be disrespectful by not accepting it now?"
Lin Ji didn't expect that it would be so troublesome to upgrade to the fourth rank, and he didn't expect that Fang Yunshan had already done everything for him without knowing it.
After receiving the judgment order, Lin Ji took out his own traveling star order and put it back.
"Your Majesty's kindness in promoting me will never be forgotten by my subordinates."
"You just need to fulfill your duties." Fang Yunshan waved his hands and said, "But now is not the time for you to perform your duties. When you get to the capital, someone will naturally explain to you in detail the duties of the Commander-in-Chief."
Lin Ji bowed and saluted.
At this moment, a spiritual pigeon suddenly flew in from outside.
The dove landed on Fang Yunshan's shoulder, chirped, and spat out a note.
Fang Yunshan took off the note and looked at it twice, his expression slightly changed.
He handed the note to Lin Ji and said, "Asking for help, it's not too late to go there now."
"As commanded."
Lin Ji took the note and glanced at it. Just when he was about to leave, Fang Yunshan stopped him again.
"Wait a minute."
When Lin Ji paused, Fang Yunshan hesitated for a moment, and then said: "They are looking for something. After you arrive, you can leave them alone, but you must bring the things back."
Lin Ji's pupils shrank slightly, and after saying yes, he quickly left.
…
The content on the note was not complicated. It was a request for help sent by a Yuxing officer of the Supervisory Tiansi. He said that the situation of the errand was complicated and he was worried that something might happen, so he asked for help.
It was about three hundred miles outside of Yucheng, passing through Nanmo County and Xingye Temple. Lin Ji was quite familiar with the road.
But when Lin Ji came to the city gate and was about to leave the city, he was surprised to see Wu Nan.
"Why are you here?" Lin Ji frowned slightly.
"Don't you think the donor is going out of town on some errands?" Wu Nan looked solemn.
"How do you know?" Lin Ji was puzzled.
"Take me with you." Wu Nan clasped his hands together, lowered his eyebrows and said, "I don't know why, but on a whim, the young monk felt that something happened, something related to the young monk."
Lin Ji's brows furrowed even more tightly.
He felt that something was wrong with Wu Nan, but he couldn't explain it.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Ji didn't worry too much about Wu Nan's talent for seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.
"Then come with me. I want to go with all my strength and I may not be able to take care of you."
"The young monk can keep up," Wu Nan said.
The matter of asking for help cannot be delayed. Although Lin Ji felt strange, he did not have time to ask in detail.
Take Wu Nan with you out of the city.
After walking for half a stick of incense, he still felt that he was too slow to understand the difficulty, so he simply grabbed him and walked away in the air.
In more than an hour, Lin Ji traveled more than 200 miles.
His spiritual consciousness began to explore all the way, but after searching for a long time, there was no clue.
"It's strange, the news said it should be around here."
Just when Lin Ji was about to increase the scope of his exploration, Wu Nan suddenly pointed in a direction and said, "Over there."
"how do you know?"
Wu Nan also had some doubts on his face, shook his head and said: "The young monk just knows, there is no reason."
Lin Ji looked at Wu Nan deeply and chose to believe his words.
After walking for more than twenty miles in the direction Wu Nan pointed, his consciousness suddenly detected a sinister force.
"The underworld again?"
They took a few steps faster, and soon, the entrance to a cave appeared in front of them.
There was a symbol left on the ground next to the entrance, and Lin Ji recognized it at a glance. It was Jian Tiansi's password.
"It's right here."
Lin Ji and Wu Nan landed on the ground. The scene in front of him made him feel familiar for no reason.
"The skeleton that controlled the zombies outside Jade City also appeared in a cave like this."
Last time Tian Guosheng was there, but this time he could only rely on himself.
"I may not be able to care about you anymore, so you can save your own life."
"Little monk understands."
After receiving Wu Nan's answer, Lin Ji no longer hesitated and jumped into the cave.
Wu Nan followed closely behind.
As soon as he entered the cave, an extremely strong evil force came towards Lin Ji, and he had to raise his cultivation level to resist.
Looking back at Wu Nan, his face was also a little ugly, but it was far from the limit.
After moving forward for a moment, some broken arms and limbs appeared on the ground.
Lin Ji knelt down and looked at it for a moment, then whispered: "It's not a living person, it's the remains of a zombie."
Zombies appeared again.
It seems that there may be some connection between this place and the cave in Yucheng.
