Tang Sheng's expression was always half-smiling, and he glanced at Lin Su for more than a dozen miles with a teasing look. Lin Su turned his head away helplessly, "Mr. Tang, if you want to smile, just smile. Don't look at people like that, it's scary."
It’s tight.”
Hearing this, Tang Sheng led the horse and laughed heartily, "You are really... very blessed. If you said those words in front of me, if you were a petty person, you would be charged and thrown into prison."
"
"Who would have thought that an old man dressed like a farmer would be the Duke of the current dynasty. He made a mistake." Lin Su curled his lips and said helplessly: "By the way, this old man is really easy to talk to. Which mansion is he the Duke of?
?”
"I don't know. I don't know many officials in the capital."
The prosperity of the capital does not lie in the city, but also in the people. Under the emperor's feet, there are countless dignitaries and nobles. If a brick is thrown down, eight out of ten are from official families, and two are from wealthy families.
.
An interesting thing once happened. It said that a local official was promoted and came to the capital. It was a happy thing, but he had an arrogant and domineering son. His son was used to being arrogant in the local area, and he was even more domineering than the local ruffians.
Excellent job.
When the new official took office, the official's son was in a very happy mood and went to a restaurant to drink. As a result, he got into an argument over a trivial matter and injured the person in a rage. He also said rudely, "Do you know who I am?"
, can you offend me?" and other words, the injured person was frightened and ran away in disgrace.
That man was not a good person either. He couldn't recognize the identity of the official's son, so he sent someone to investigate. After three days of investigation, the person came back and found out that he was the son of a fifth-grade official.
The man didn't believe it, and murmured in his mind that there must be other identities, such as his other relatives. He also screened them all, and the results were still the same. Except for his father being an official, every relative in the court, and even some distant relatives were still suffering.
Have a great life.
He was so angry that the boy frightened him. His grandson, a dignified second-rank official, had his head smashed by the son of a fifth-rank official, and he was furious.
Not long after, the official's son was beaten for no apparent reason, and the injuries were serious. He stayed in bed for half a month before he recovered. As soon as he left the house, he was beaten again, in a fair and just way. It didn't matter if he was beaten, by the way.
He called his friends and brought the official's son to the official to complain.
If you don’t ask, you won’t know. If you ask, you will be shocked.
There are more than a dozen young masters, all of them from aristocratic families with people in the court.
This one is the son of the commander of the imperial army, that one is the nephew of the Minister of Household Affairs, this one is the nephew of the Minister of Rites, that one is the younger brother of a high-ranking official in the Ministry of War, and there is even a distant relative of a first-grade marquis.
The official was frightened and apologized quickly. But the apology was of no use. Within a few days, his transfer order was issued, and he went to the border city to become a full-grade official of the fifth rank. It seemed like a promotion, but in fact there was no more severe exile than him.
The capital is like this. All the princes and nobles live here, there are so many officials, and the stranger sitting next to you one day may be the son of some prince.
Ren Yue didn't pursue Lin Su's matter. On the one hand, he had a big belly, and on the other hand... he ran away. Not everyone is like him, and his belly can hold a boat. Ordinary officials can't make coarse cloth, linen clothes, and bamboo poles.
The image of a fish basket.
Tang Sheng stopped and said, "Your destination is ahead. My mission is completed and I'm leaving."
"Take care of yourself."
Lin Su and Tang Sheng said goodbye and handed over the token issued by the court. Lin Su and Murongyan entered the personnel gathering place of the Abyss Trial Field. The venue was empty and looked like a military camp.
"There is a place like this in the capital." Lin Su clicked his tongue after taking a few more curious glances.
There were a lot of people inside, all of them young people. The people were divided into four parts, which can also be said to be four small forces.
As soon as the two came in, they noticed. Someone from each force came over, glanced at Mu Rongyan, and turned back to Lin Su with a sneer: "Boy, are you new? Where do you come from?"
"Liangzhou, Anyang County." Lin Su replied.
One of the thin young men patted Lin Su on the shoulder and said: "Liangzhou, the base camp of the Buddhist Shaolin Temple, join our Xuanwu Hall."
Lin Su couldn't help but tilt his head, "What is Xuanwu Hall?"
The short man among the four sneered: "What a bumpkin. Apart from the authentic Buddhist Shaolin, you Liangzhou has nothing to talk about. It is difficult for a person to enter the abyss training ground, so for hundreds of years,
Here, everyone is divided into four groups, Blue Dragon, White Tiger, Suzaku, and Xuanwu, regardless of region, state, or county, only divided into groups, do you understand?"
The handsome young man waved his hand and said, "You guys can fight, Qinglong Hall is not interested. Qinglong Hall has the pride of Qinglong Hall, and not just any small thing can join."
"Baihutang is also withdrawing." Another person also said.
The thin young man said: "Look, Qinglong Hall and Baihu Hall have rejected you, why not join Xuanwu Hall? With our Xuantou covering you, no one will dare to cause trouble for you."
The short young man mocked: "Xuantou? Your name is really unique. Xuanwu is a turtle, why not call it **?"
The skinny young man didn't care at all, "If you have the ability, you can learn to call me one of us. Xuan Tou doesn't sound good, so Zhu Tou will be happy with it, right? Zhu Tou, Zhu Tou."
"What did you say?" The short young man grabbed the clothes on the skinny young man's lower abdomen, which he could only reach due to his height.
Murong Yan knew a woman from the Zhuque Hall, so she joined the Zhuque Hall. When the young man with dwarfism saw this, he immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "Your companion has joined the Zhuque Hall. You can come too, so we can take care of each other."
The thin young man was not discouraged, "What's so good about Zhuque Hall? Come to our Xuanwu Hall. Our hall master is from Liangzhou. Maybe you know him too."
"Oh, really?" Lin Su smiled. Liangzhou is vast. Not to mention the boundaries of a state, even if it is a county in Anyang County, he may not know him. "Who is your hall master?"
The thin young man said proudly: "Fifty consecutive rows on the Tiger List and a single row on the rope."
"Who?" Lin Su thought that he had heard something wrong. How could Shan Lianheng be from the Six Doors?
"Shan Lian Heng." The thin young man repeated.
"Why is he here?" Lin Su almost fainted.
What is this called?
Fate is truly wonderful.
The skinny young man was not sure what Lin Su meant by this sentence, so he did not interrupt. As expected, the man with dwarfism left in good faith. The skinny young man said: "So you really know our hall master. He is very famous in Liangzhou. Do you know him?"
I take it for granted. Look, the people from Suzaku Hall have also left, so you can only join Xuanwu Hall."
"Okay." Lin Su had no objection to this. It didn't matter which hall he joined.
The young man immediately became enthusiastic and said: "Sure, join Xuanwu Hall, we will be brothers. Even though our Xuanwu Hall is ranked last among the four halls, even Qinglong Hall is too willing to mess with us, we are so powerful."
"why is that?"
The young man patted his chest and said, "It's just because our hall leader is Shan Lianheng."
After leading Lin Su back to the Xuanwu Hall, the young man said to the people sitting there: "This brother joined the Xuanwu Hall and will be our brother from now on. Don't blame me for not reminding you. He is a fellow villager of our hall master and a genuine Liangzhou native."
