In the county government courtyard, Capt. Zhao stood in front of everyone, carefully observing their expressions.
Most of the remaining people had struggling expressions on their faces. This was because they were fighting against their inner desires. After a while, two more people could not help but take a step forward and their bodies fell limply to the ground.
A look of pity appeared on Capt. Zhao's face, and he waved his hand and said, "Carry it down."
Several officers came forward and carried the two men down.
When Capt. Zhao walked up to the young man, he saw that his face was red, but his expression was still determined, and his eyes showed admiration again.
He walked up to Li Mu and saw that his expression was as usual and he was not affected by the illusion at all.
Not only that, there was also a hint of memory on his face...
Capt. Zhao admired in his heart that this young detective from Yangqiu County had a firm mind that was different from ordinary people. Neither the temptation of money nor the temptation of beauty could sway him in the slightest.
This kind of people are like a clean stream whether they are officials or officials.
I wonder what he is remembering again. Could it be his wife?
To be able to come up with this method to break the illusion is a seed of infatuation...
Capt. Zhao looked at Li Mu and felt very happy.
This young agent from Yangqiu County is determined and has a high level of cultivation, so he can be reused immediately.
And that young man also has a good mind. He is a talent that can be developed. With a little training, he can be used for great purposes.
He finally looked at Li Si, with a look of astonishment on his face.
He originally thought that this person would be the first to be unable to withstand the temptation of beauty, but he did not expect that he actually persisted for so long. Not only did his face show no hesitation and struggle, but it also showed ridicule, as if he was very disdainful of the temptation in the fantasy...
…
Capt. Zhao put away the illusion, looked at Li Si with a surprised look, and then said to the rest of the crowd: "Congratulations, you have passed the second test. To be an official or a clerk, you must not only withstand the test of money, but also
You must also be able to withstand the temptation of beauty. You have performed very well. From now on, you will officially be the county's police officers."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, with a look of relief on their faces.
At this time, Zhao Captou said again: "However, before you enter the Yamen, I will give you a third test. Those who can pass the third test and perform well can become my deputy and be exempted from patrolling the streets."
Responsibility."
Li Mu was very moved after hearing this. Patrolling the streets is a very time-consuming task. If he could be exempted from patrolling, he would have enough time to do his own things. He just didn't know what the third test was.
.
If you can't get through it on your own, you can only use Qingxin Jue.
Zhao Captou raised the bronze mirror again, and Li Mu's eyes suddenly turned dark.
A hideous and terrifying face appeared from the darkness and flew towards Li Mu.
This illusion could infinitely magnify his fear. Li Mu subconsciously tightened his grip on Bai Yi, and then realized that this was just an illusion, and allowed the ghostly face to pass through his body.
At the same time, several figures in the courtyard couldn't help but take a step back and exited the illusion at the moment when the ghost came.
The evil ghost was at least a third-level ghost. They were frightened in their hearts and their actions were out of control.
When they exited the illusion and observed the surrounding situation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they still had lingering fears.
Zhou Captou looked at them and said: "As a policeman, in addition to being able to resist all kinds of temptations, you must also have a certain amount of courage. People who are greedy for life and afraid of death cannot become a good policeman. Your minds are not bad."
Be firm, but your courage still needs to be tempered.”
Several people looked guilty and looked at the others who were still standing there with admiration on their faces.
Li Mu was in the darkness, and various demons and ghosts kept jumping out from behind, to his left and to his left and right. Sometimes they were evil ghosts with hideous faces, sometimes they were zombies with overwhelming evil spirits, and sometimes they were monsters surging with ferocious flames...
In the illusion, the auras of these monsters and ghosts are extremely real. When your own fear is amplified, you may even be unable to distinguish between illusion and reality.
However, Li Mu had fought against all of them, whether they were pill-condensing demon cultivators, zombie evil spirits, or even the souls of Dongxuan evil cultivators. These illusions could not disturb his state of mind at all.
As time passed, several more people were frightened away by the illusion, and only three of them were still standing where they were.
One of them was the young man. Although he had a look of fear on his face, his expression remained determined.
The other person was a thin young man with a somewhat pale face. His expression was dull, but he didn't seem to be frightened by the monsters in the fantasy. Instead, he looked like he had seen through life and death...
The last person had a very calm expression and seemed not to be afraid of those monsters at all.
Under the gaze of everyone, he not only did not retreat, but instead took a step forward, directly stepping out of the illusion.
Zhao Captou put away the bronze mirror, looked at Li Mu with admiration, and said, "How courageous. Did you have to deal with these evil things when you were in Yangqiu County?"
Li Mu nodded and did not deny it.
The monsters and ghosts in the fantasy world are only in the third realm, and the zombies are just jumping zombies. Li Mu has seen monsters in the fourth realm, ghost cultivators in the soul realm, and flying zombies, so how could he be frightened by those things.
At this time, Li Si and the young man also woke up from the illusion.
The young man's body was already wet with sweat, and his face was very pale. He stood there, panting heavily.
Capt. Zhao patted him on the shoulder and said, "With your cultivation level, it's pretty good that you can persist for so long."
He finally looked at Li Si. If the first two people were both determined practitioners, fearless of temptations and demons, this person was just a mortal. Zhao Captou still hadn't figured out why the county government
Will such a person be promoted from the local county government...
But it is such a mortal who has passed three levels without any trouble. He is also not tempted by money and beauty, and has sufficient courage. He has passed the test that most soul-condensing practitioners cannot pass. This also shows from the side that he
It doesn't seem that ordinary.
Zhao Captou looked suspicious and asked Li Si, "Aren't you afraid of death?"
Li Si said expressionlessly: "There's nothing to be afraid of about death. I don't want to live anyway..."
Zhao Captou looked at Li Si for a long time, but couldn't see anything extraordinary about him. He didn't know whether the other party passed or failed these three tests.
He thought for a long time, walked to a hall, and said to a man: "Your Excellency, how should we deal with this person?"
The man said: "Let him stay."
Capt. Zhao hesitated and said: "But he is just an ordinary person. According to the rules..."
The man said: "He was requested by the Lord Commander."
Zhao Captou was stunned for a moment, and after he came to his senses, he stopped asking.
Although according to the rules, those selected from the local county government are all the best local police officers, and they still need to pass the test of the county government before they can officially work in the county.
But since Lord Jun Cheng has spoken, it is not difficult to make a special case for an ordinary person who has never practiced Buddhism.
In the county government office, everyone stood together, waiting for the results.
Li Si suddenly had an idea, looked at Li Mu, and asked: "If I failed the test just now, can I go back?"
Li Mu nodded and said, "In principle, that's the case."
Li Si slapped his thigh and said regretfully: "Why didn't I think of that just now!"
Capt. Zhao walked out again and said to everyone: "Congratulations, you passed the pre-employment test. I will take you to where you live."
Li Si suddenly stepped forward and said: "Master Captor, I am greedy for money and can easily be tempted by money. I am afraid I cannot take on a big responsibility..."
Capt. Zhao smiled and said, "We can change it slowly in the future."
Li Si was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I still covet women. I feel uncomfortable every day if I don't visit the brothel."
Zhao Captou cupped his hands and said, "It's a good thing to be energetic."
Li Si continued: "I am timid and will run away when I see monsters and evil things."
Capt. Zhao praised: "A police officer should cherish his own life, fight if he can beat him, and run away if he can't beat him. This is a very wise behavior."
Li Si simply stopped pretending and asked, "Why on earth did you drive me away?"
Zhao Captou smiled and said: "You have passed three tests, why should I drive you away? The county government is a big family. From now on, we will treat this place as our own home. Don't be polite..."
County Chancellor's Mansion.
A young man was standing in the center of the room, reporting to a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man tapped the table with his index finger and said, "You said he passed the three tests, and neither money nor beauty tempted him, nor was he frightened by the third illusion?"
The young man nodded and said in surprise: "He is just an ordinary person, but he can pass these three tests..."
"As expected of Miaomiao's favorite person..." The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Let him come to see me."
