In the third year of Sheng Yuan Dynasty, it was the fourth day of the fifth lunar month.
The sky is still clear.
Lin Ji's carriage slowly passed through the city gate and entered the Jade City.
Gao Ling is still somewhat famous in Jade City, so people who see him often point and wonder who is sitting in the carriage, so that Gao Ling, the chief constable, can lead the horse for him.
Lin Ji turned a deaf ear to these discussions.
Gao Ling's face looked a bit worried.
He also ignored the discussion, but looked back from time to time to look at Huang Xiong who was placed with the pots and pans behind the carriage.
"Sir, have you really thought about it? If you offend the Huang family as soon as you come here, I'm afraid things won't be easy to handle later on."
Lin Ji looked at Gao Ling in surprise.
"You said last night that you were so angry. I thought you were so jealous of evil that you would kill these criminals as quickly as possible. Why did you change your tune now?"
"Well, your Excellency is right, but after all, you have just taken office, and you are not familiar with the place. Even if the new official takes office, it will cause a fire, but if the fire burns too big, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop it."
Hearing this, Lin Ji shook his head slightly.
After all, Gao Ling is only the chief arrester of the Fourth Realm, so he naturally doesn't know where Lin Ji's confidence lies.
Now Lin Ji has found the way to enter the Tao, and has half a foot in the realm of entering the Tao.
In addition, his identity is backed by Jian Tiansi, and he is the town official of Weizhou.
The Huang family's Taoist monks would never dare to take action against him, otherwise, the Huang family would have to bear the price of destruction, which is what any aristocratic family should bear.
And if he doesn't take any action when he enters the Tao, he won't be afraid of anyone in Victoria.
In this case, it is better to be more public and make things that were originally cumbersome and troublesome become simpler.
However, Lin Ji did not explain this to Gao Ling. Instead, he asked: "Speaking of which, how is my brother's cultivation going?"
Speaking of his apprentice, Gao Ling could only temporarily let go of his worries.
"Sir, that boy Lin Chun is extremely talented and has already perfected his body. However, he is still too young. My subordinates think that we should suppress him for two years and let him recuperate... What do you think, sir?"
"You are his master, you can make up your own mind." Lin Ji didn't say much.
While he was talking, the carriage had already arrived at the entrance of Yucheng Mansion Yamen.
Lin Ji got out of the car, looked at the familiar Yamen, and sighed slightly.
The last time he came here, he was still in the fifth realm, and he was still helping Tian Guosheng, the then Weizhou town official.
Soon, under the leadership of Gao Ling, Lin Ji and his party arrived at the backyard of the government office.
"This is where Master Tian and Master Zi Qing lived before. Master Lin, do you live here or in the Lin Mansion?"
"I'll live in the government office."
Lin Ji looked at the surrounding environment and nodded with satisfaction.
There is nothing extraordinary about the house in the backyard of the government office, but it is just a little more spacious.
After all, it is a place for town officials to live, and everything they need is there. If you don’t have anything, just ask and it will be available soon.
Nothing to fault.
"Han Li, go and buy a house in the city and live in it. Take A Bao with you too. From now on, you can go wherever you like, and remember not to cause any trouble for me." Lin Ji said.
Han Li responded, this was already agreed upon.
Abao had no objection either.
Lin Ji looked at Gao Ling again.
"Where are the things left by Master Ziqing?"
"I've already sent someone to pick it up. It's in the government warehouse."
While he was talking, a demon hunter came closer with a wooden box in his hands.
"Master Lin."
Lin Ji took the wooden box and thanked him.
Then he opened the wooden box and placed ten tokens in the box, all of which represented the Yuxing Tokens of the fifth-rank Yuxing Official.
Lin Ji casually took out a Wandering Star Token, and then took out his own Zhenzi Token. His mind moved slightly and he activated his spiritual power at the same time.
In the blink of an eye, the Star Token in his hand flashed slightly, and then returned to its original state.
After doing all this, he threw the Youxing Token to Han Li.
"You know how to use it?"
"I know, I know." Han Li nodded repeatedly.
It was only after Lin Ji got the Zhenzi Order that he found out that Supervisor Tiansi's tokens had to go down one level at a time.
His method just now was to share the luck of the Weizhou Supervisor Tiansi with the Youxing Order.
Only in this way can this Traveling Star Token be considered useful, otherwise it would be just an ordinary token.
The third-grade town word order authority can only issue Youxing orders, and the fourth-grade palm order can only be granted by the general office Fang Yunshan.
After sending Han Li away, Lin Ji said to Lianyu: "You live in the government office on weekdays. I guess there aren't many chores for you to do. You can just walk around in the city if you have nothing to do... Remember to practice
Don’t fall behind.”
"Thank you, sir."
"Go find a room to stay by yourself."
Lianyu responded and went to the most remote side room in the courtyard.
"You go too." Lin Ji let go of his arms and let Aling fall to the ground.
Aling transformed into a human form and went to stay in the wing next to Lianyu.
Then, Lin Ji looked at the flower bed in the yard. Just now, there were two new clusters of new shoots in the flower bed.
Knowing that Green and Zi were following him, he ignored them.
After arranging the trivial matters, Lin Ji quickly brought Gao Ling to the meeting hall.
He sat down on the main seat without ceremony.
"Captain Gao, how many stars and commanders are serving in the Weizhou government office?" Lin Ji asked.
"There are nine in total, two commanders and seven Youxing... Counting Master Han, there should be eight Yousing, but they usually don't do anything." Gao Ling replied.
Lin Ji ignored You Xingguan for the time being.
"Both commanders are day-traveling monks?"
"Lord Geng Mu is a day-traveling monk, and Lord Chu Jin is a night-traveling late-stage monk."
"All in the city?"
"Master Geng is here."
"Call him to meet me and convey my orders."
Lin Ji thought for a moment.
"You are in charge of the headcatchers in every county in Victoria, and the headcatchers in Jade City, so the news of my taking office will be passed down to you."
"Ask the commander who is on duty at the government office and Youxing to come see me first after they return to Jade City."
Having said this, Lin Ji paused.
"Your Majesty, please remember. Do you have any other instructions?" Gao Ling saw that Lin Ji was about to hesitate, so he asked.
Lin Ji asked curiously: "Speaking of which, where were people beheading people in Jade City in the past?"
Gao Ling felt a chill in his heart, knowing that it was Huang Xiong's turn.
“Caishikou.”
"Why are they all at Caishikou?" Lin Ji laughed dumbly. It seemed to be the same everywhere.
The purpose of beheading is to shock, and naturally people have to watch, so that the shock effect is sufficient.
The most lively thing in the city is the vegetable market, where people come and go.
"You go and post a notice to announce Huang Xiong's crime, and then three days later, I will kill him personally at Caishikou! Remember to sharpen the tiger head guillotine in the Yamen!"
Gao Lingxin said that it was indeed the case.
"Sir, do you really want to behead me?"
Although Huang Xiong was captured by Gao Ling, the most he could do was arrest him. He never thought about beheading him.
"I want to kill him! I said he wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, so he must not let it go." Lin Ji looked slightly cold, "Is three days enough to spread the news back to the Huang family?"
"enough."
Lin Ji nodded.
"Go ahead."
"I'll take my leave."
Shortly after Gao Ling left, the voice of a government official sounded outside the meeting hall.
