Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Luoshui County.

Inspection House.

Braving the heavy snow, Jiang Ning stepped into the gate of the Inspection House and walked straight towards the meeting room.

Xie Xiaojiu followed closely behind him.

"Sir, this is it!" Xie Xiaojiu looked at the conference room in front of him, stopped and spoke.

"Yeah!" Jiang Ning nodded.

Then he stopped and looked at Xie Xiaojiu, then said, "It's cold, no need to wait for me here, go inside and warm yourself by the fire."

"Yes, sir!" Xie Xiaojiu pursed his lips and replied.

Then, she watched Jiang Ning walking towards the meeting room in the heavy snow.

Chamber.

Jiang Ning came to the front eaves of the house, shook his shoulders, and the snowflakes and melted snow water on his body were shaken off.

As for his head, there was not a single snowflake.

Then he pushed open the half-open door and stepped over the threshold.

"Commander Jiang!" When Ye Qiu saw Jiang Ning, he immediately stood up with a smile.

Yuan Hua and Tang Miaomiao, who had already arrived, stopped talking and quickly stood up.

"Meet Commander Jiang!!"

They both already knew that Jiang Ning had been promoted to the eighth rank.

His official position is higher than theirs.

Now, as long as the transfer order comes down from above, Jiang Ning will no longer be a nominal position, but a real position with real power.

Seeing Jiang Ning at this moment, both of them suddenly showed complicated expressions.

Although they knew that with Jiang Ning's previous performance, it was only a matter of time before he surpassed them, they did not expect that this day would come so early.

The local inspection office had only been established for a few months, and Jiang Ning had surpassed the two of them not only in strength, but also in status.

After standing up, Yuan Hua hesitated for a moment, then moved forward to meet him.

At this moment, Jiang Ning's punch still lingered in his mind.

Years ago, he learned that Jiang Ning had found the base of the God Worshipping Cult.

With the mentality that whoever sees it should get a share, he brought people to try to get a piece of the pie.

As a result, Jiang Ning showed up and hit him with just one punch, causing internal injuries.

The injury from that punch took him nearly a month to fully recover.

He knew very well that he could not take Jiang Ning's punch at that time.

Today the gap is even wider.

When he saw Jiang Ning again, he also had the idea of ​​lowering his head to resolve the situation.

After walking a few steps, Yuan Hua arrived in front of Jiang Ning.

The next moment, he put his hands together, palms covering the backs of his hands, and bowed.

"Commander Yuan, what are you doing..." Jiang Ning stopped immediately, stunned.

Yuan Hua slowly straightened his back and said, "I apologize for my previous offense. Commander Jiang, please forgive me!"

After he finished speaking, Yuan Hua pretended to bend down and bow.

"What are you saying, Commander Yuan?" Jiang Ning took a step forward and held Yuan Hua's arms.

"Commander Jiang" Yuan Hua felt that Jiang Ning's arms were as heavy and solid as a mountain, which made him completely unable to resist. He couldn't even raise the thought of resisting. He couldn't help but look up at Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "We are all colleagues and have the same goal. It is normal to have some minor conflicts! If Commander Yuan hadn't mentioned those little things, I would have forgotten them long ago!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Hua took a serious look at Jiang Ning and realized that Jiang Ning did not seem to be faking it, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Commander Jiang is very generous!" Yuan Hua complimented.

Jiang Ning smiled when he heard that, then let go of Yuan Hua's arms.

Then he greeted the people present.

I also saw two other commanders whom I hadn’t seen before.

There was a man and a woman. The man had a full beard and looked to be in his early forties or fifties. The woman had some crow's feet at the corners of her eyes and was probably in her forties.

Jiang Ning couldn't help but take another look.

Because this was the first time he had seen these two commanders since the establishment of the Inspectorate.

When the two saw Jiang Ning's gaze, they couldn't help but smile.

Jiang Ning also smiled back.

Then, he sat next to Ye Qiu.

"Commander Jiang, please wait a moment. Commander Li will take some time to arrive." Hong Minghu said.

Hearing this, Jiang Ning became even more curious.

He had just received a notice from Hong Minghu, and he knew that the appointment between him and Hong Minghu a few days ago had come, so he hurried to the Inspection House.

As soon as I arrived at the Inspection House and stepped into the meeting room, I saw this scene.

Except for Commander Li Changkong, everyone else has arrived.

In other words, he was the second to last person to arrive, just before Li Changkong who had not yet appeared.

Today was also the day when he saw the most senior officials of the Inspection Office gathered together.

"It looks like something really big has happened!" Jiang Ning said to himself.

Thinking of this, he glanced sideways at Ye Qiu standing beside him.

At this time, Ye Qiu also looked at him: "Commander Jiang, are you curious about what happened?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ning nodded slightly.

Ye Qiu said: "I can't say it yet!"

Jiang Ning: "."

"Drink some tea and crack some melon seeds first!" Ye Qiu said with a smile, "The Palace Master will tell you everything later."

"Okay!" Jiang Ning nodded again.

He was not in a hurry at the moment, so he cracked melon seeds and drank tea while chatting with Ye Qiu.

Soon after.

The sound of footsteps came from far to near.

Then a figure appeared at the gate and walked in through the gate.

"Everyone, I'm late!" The man bowed and bowed to everyone present.

The person who came was Li Changkong, the last of the four commanders.

Hong Minghu smiled and said, "It's not too late!"

After saying that, he stood up and looked around.

"Since everyone is here, I will close the door."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Minghu raised his sleeve and a gust of wind suddenly appeared in the room.

The strong wind blew and the door closed instantly, and then the upright bolt fell down with a "snap".

From then on, indoors and outdoors were completely separated.

Hong Minghu said: "I believe you are all very curious about the purpose of my coming here today."

"I am indeed curious!" Li Changkong, who arrived late, spoke first: "Master, just tell me what you want to say!"

"Look for yourselves!" Hong Minghu took out a few pages of white paper from his body and threw them at Jiang Ning and others. The white paper scattered instantly.

Each page of white paper also floats accurately in front of everyone.

Jiang Ning raised his hand and grabbed a corner of the white paper that was floating over, and couldn't help but marvel at Hong Minghu's control over his internal energy.

As far as he knew, Hong Minghu had achieved the fifth level, and his inner breath had been condensed into emptiness by relying on external objects.

But at this moment, Hong Minghu's control over his internal energy was extremely exquisite, and it didn't seem like he had relied on external objects to reach his current level.

"Not easy!" Jiang Ning sighed in his heart, then his eyes fell on the white paper in his hand, and his eyes quickly scanned the white paper in his hand.

After a while.

He knew the reason why Hong Minghu asked him and others to come here.

Just as he had guessed before, Hong Minghu did catch a big fish.

A big fish that would bring him promotion and wealth.

Li Hong, the county magistrate of Luoshui County, is a member of the God Worshipping Religion and also its deputy leader.

At this moment, Jiang Ning also understood why the county magistrate Li Hong did not make any noise after the arrival of the Inspection Office.

No wonder the statues of the gods in the past could be placed in the City God Temple to collect incense.

The reason for all this is that the county lord Li Hong is a member of the God Worshipping Religion, and his status is very high. He is the deputy leader of the God Worshipping Religion.

A little while later.

Hong Minghu spoke only after he saw that everyone had finished reading.

"My fellow officers, this operation is very simple. You will help me capture the county lord Li Hong."

"As long as we can bring him to justice alive, it will be a great achievement. The merit of capturing Li Hong, the deputy leader of the Worship God Cult, is enough to allow you and I to be promoted to a higher rank."

next moment.

Li Changkong slammed the table and stood up. "It really is a big fish!"

"I'm not interested in promotion yet, but I'm very interested in merit!"

"There are many good things in Wusheng Mansion!"

"Whether I can seize the opportunity depends on the resources allocated by the Martial Saint Palace!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded slowly.

At this moment, Ye Qiu looked at Jiang Ning.

"Brother Li, when you mention this, I can't help but think of Brother Jiang!"

"Brother Jiang has mastered the sword skills during the entrance examination. It's really enviable!!"

As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere became tense.

Li Changkong only then recalled that as a direct descendant of the Li family, he had made great achievements in both internal and external cultivation, and was still pursuing the mastery of power so that he would be qualified to enter the fourth level of martial arts in the future.

However, Jiang Ning, who was born and raised in this remote county, was the one who grasped the situation early on.

This made him feel a little discouraged.

at this time.

Hong Minghu spoke again: "I believe that all of you colleagues still have doubts in your hearts. Here is a summary of the evidence that Commander Shangguan and Commander Fan have investigated over the past few months. You can take a look at it."

After saying that, the two commanders, a man and a woman, who had not appeared in public for a long time, stood up and prepared to briefly distribute the evidence they had prepared long ago.

Just now.

Li Changkong spoke immediately.

"That's not necessary!"

"Just do it!"

"I'm really wrong. At most I can just apologize!"

"As the saying goes, speed is of the essence in war. If we procrastinate now, once the news leaks out and County Magistrate Li Hong escapes, the loss to us will be huge!"

Seeing this, Ye Qiu also slowly stood up.

"Master, what Brother Li said makes sense. To avoid any more trouble, let's do it now!"

aside.

Jiang Ning remained silent, but his heart was full of interest.

Deputy leader of the Worshiping God Cult.

If County Lord Li Hong really has this status, then it would be like finding something without any effort after searching for it for a long time.

He had previously wanted to find a den of the cult somewhere else, so as to try to absorb the divinity points and the authority of the God of Flesh and Blood.

But now, in Luoshui County, there is such a big fish hidden.

If Hong Minghu's information is true, then he might have a great gain.

at the same time.

Seeing the attitudes of Li Changkong and Ye Qiu, Hong Minghu could only nod.

"Okay! Then let's do it!"

"I will bear all the consequences."

After a while.

After a brief discussion and assignment of tasks, everyone followed Hong Minghu and walked out of the conference room quietly.

Hong Minghu took the lead personally, and everyone followed closely behind.

Outside the house, heavy snow was falling, quickly covering the footprints of several people.

The task assigned to Jiang Ning was simple, which was to stand alone on a high building and use archery to block the way for County Magistrate Li Hong to leave.

The others were just flanking the enemy, but Hong Minghu was the one who actually took action.

The fifth grade is unique in the entire Luoshui County.

Of course, this was because he didn't know Jiang Ning's current strength, and he didn't know that Jiang Ning had officially entered the ranks of the fifth rank like him.

Jiang Ning had no intention of competing for this credit.

The higher-ups still owed him credit for defending the city and suppressing the rebellion of the Black Mountain Army.

In addition, there are still one million contribution points that have not yet been distributed.

In a short period of time, he did not lack credit.

Therefore, there was no need for him to snatch the credit that originally belonged to Hong Minghu. It was enough for him to get a share of the pie.

Sometimes, cooperation leads to win-win results, and having everything to yourself is not a long-term solution.

In addition, being too popular may not necessarily be a good thing.

Everyone walked in the snow. The snow was flying everywhere and falling silently, swallowing up their movements.

on the way.

Ye Qiu flashed and came to Jiang Ning's side.

"Brother Jiang, congratulations!"

"Brother Ye, where does my joy come from?" Jiang Ning asked.

Ye Qiu said: "Brother Jiang has been promoted to the eighth rank. It will probably not be long before the appointment documents come down from above. Then Brother Jiang will be truly promoted. Isn't this a happy event?"

Jiang Ning's figure was as swift as a swallow. He followed Hong Minghu in front of him slowly while speaking.

"What kind of happy event is this! Once the appointment document comes down, I might be transferred to another place. Once I'm there, I won't be familiar with the place and it won't be as comfortable as staying in Luoshui County. If I have a choice, I'd rather stay here for the time being."

Ye Qiu knew what Jiang Ning was thinking when he heard this, so he said, "It's not that there is no solution!"

"What method?" Jiang Ning asked.

"Generally speaking, promotions are given priority to locals, and then to those from other places! As long as any one of the four of us, including Li Changkong and I, is transferred, there will naturally be a vacancy for an eighth-rank official position, and Brother Jiang will naturally fill it."

At this moment, Ye Qiu saw the target that Jiang Ning was looking at and couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Brother Jiang, if this trip goes well, I will be promoted and transferred! How about you take over?"

"Thank you very much, Brother Ye!" Jiang Ning's eyes suddenly lit up.

It would be best if we could stay in Luoshui County.

Luoshui County is a small, remote county in Dongling County. Generally speaking, the smaller the place, the less busy the inspection staff are.

Especially in Luoshui County today, the tentacles of the God Worshipping Cult have been basically cut off.

Two of the three major local families were also destroyed because of their worship of gods. The remaining Xie family has now turned over a new leaf and is doing good deeds.

It can be said that there will hardly be major turmoil in Luoshui County in the coming year.

This is very suitable for him to practice martial arts without having to worry about anything else.

This is not necessarily the case in other places.

If you are transferred to another place, you might get into a lot of trouble.

He has no shortage of merits now, he just wants a stable enough environment for him to practice martial arts and increase his strength.

Therefore, it would be best to keep Luoshui County.

At this time, he was also sincerely grateful to Ye Qiu.

Because Ye Qiu was transferred, it would be as he said, he would be promoted and transferred, and I would take over his position.

In this way, I don't have to worry about being transferred by a transfer order from above.

You can continue to stay in Luoshui County, practice in peace, and increase your own strength.

After a while.

The crowd had already arrived three miles away from the county government office.

Seeing Hong Minghu stop, everyone stopped as well.

The distance of three miles was only a dozen breaths for everyone.

This distance is not far, but it is safe enough.

So as not to be noticed by Li Hong, the county magistrate in the county government.

And this distance is nothing to Jiang Ning.

With his current speed, if he burst out at full speed, he would reach the county government office in just two breaths.

"I will rely on all my colleagues to help me later!" Hong Minghu bowed and clasped his hands.

"Don't worry, Lord!" Li Changkong smiled and said, "We also contributed to the capture of County Lord Li Hong, so we will spare no effort."

Afterwards, Ye Qiu and others also expressed their opinions.

Seeing this, Hong Minghu nodded with satisfaction.

Then he looked at Jiang Ning again.

"Commander Jiang, I won't be commanding you anymore. Just do what you want!"

"Okay!" Jiang Ning nodded.

"And!" Hong Minghu looked at everyone again: "If the situation is not right, don't hold back and execute him on the spot. Don't let Li Hong escape."

"Li Hong cannot be underestimated. He was a martial arts scholar when he was young. Any martial arts scholar is at least a seventh-grade tendon refiner. Most of them are sixth-grade warriors."

"Now that more than ten years have passed since Li Hong won the title of Wu Xiucai, he has probably already entered the sixth level of bone forging."

"I understand!" Li Changkong smiled nonchalantly: "How much trouble can a mere sixth-grade master cause? All the commanders present have already entered the ranks of the sixth-grade master." (End of this chapter)
