…………

Su Mu looked at the contents on the panel with a slightly complicated mood.

In just one day, the points increased by a full ten points.

The status simply changed from a commoner to an official, but the speed at which points increased changed qualitatively.

What if it is a higher status?
What is class?

This is class!

"Although Xing Zhaofu kept his promise and gave me the identity of a constable, his desire to kill me has not disappeared. On the contrary, I'm afraid he wants to kill me even more now."

Su Mu pondered in his heart.

It was not his original intention to join Nanchengsi now. He originally wanted to wait until his sword skills were perfected before showing his abilities and joining Nanchengsi.

However, the appearance of the third in command of Black Dragon Village triggered a series of chain reactions, resulting in his undeveloped martial arts being exposed to the public.

What’s even more terrifying is that he is being targeted by the head of the Nancheng Division.

In other words, Xing Zhaofu still had some concerns and did not dare to attack him openly in the city.

But it is conceivable that as long as Xing Zhaofu finds the opportunity, he will definitely not let him go.

The only thing you can rely on is your own strength and hard work.

"One month, just one month, and my Fu Bo sword technique will be perfected. By then, I will have a better chance of making maneuvers. But, can he give me one month?"

Su Mu sighed in his heart.

Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Just then, there was a knock on the door.

It's so late, who is it?
Su Mu was confused. He held the handle of the knife with one hand and opened the door a crack with the other.

"It's you?"

Through the crack in the door, Su Mu saw a slender figure standing outside the door, "What's the matter?"

"Have."

Liu Hongyu nodded and whispered, "Can I go in and talk?"

Su Mu hesitated for a moment, but still opened the door and let Liu Hongyu enter the yard.

"If you have anything to say, just say it here."

Su Mu stopped in the yard and did not invite her into the house.

"I know it is you."

Liu Hongyu suddenly said, staring at Su Mu with her big eyes.

"What am I?"

Su Mu had a puzzled expression on his face.

"nothing."

Liu Hongyu looked at Su Mu for a while, shook her head and said, "Brother Su, do you want to marry me?"

After saying this, even though Liu Hongyu had a hot temper, her face turned red.

However, thinking of a certain possibility, she still suppressed her shyness and continued to stare at Su Mu.

"My parents passed away, and my uncle and aunt were murdered. I am the only one left in the Liu family now."

Liu Hongyu continued, "My parents' inheritance, as well as my uncle's inheritance, now I own five houses in the outer city of Wuling, thirty acres of good farmland, and two hundred taels of silver in savings."

Gradually, she calmed down and a look of confidence appeared on her face.

"As long as you marry me, these are all yours."

Liu Hongyu said, "This is something you can't earn even if you hunt for a lifetime."

Su Mu remained silent. It was true. The five houses in Wuling City were worth at least three or four hundred taels, and thirty acres of good farmland were worth one or two hundred taels. A rough calculation showed that Liu Hongyu was really a wealthy woman with a net worth of nearly a thousand taels.

For ordinary hunters, it is indeed an unattainable wealth.

"why me?"

Su Mu was silent for a while, then spoke slowly.

Liu Hongyu is pretty and rich. If she wants to get married, I'm afraid that many people who want to propose marriage will be able to trample down the door of the Liu family.

Although Su Mu knew his own situation, to outsiders, he was just an ordinary hunter with no money and no house, and except for his good looks, he had no other advantages.

"I heard from my uncle that you are a good archer."

Liu Hongyu said seriously, "As long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely be able to join the Nancheng Division as a servant.

As long as you become a policeman, I will marry you. Then, I will have money to help you. Within three to five years, I will definitely help you become a constable in the South City Division." Liu Hongyu calculated seriously.

Su Mu was speechless.

It was as if he had seen those wives who pushed their husbands to make progress, as if they were unworthy of them if they did not achieve certain things.

"So I have to be a police officer to be eligible to marry you?"

Su Mu said with a smile on his face.

"It may sound a little unkind, but yes."

Liu Hongyu nodded vigorously, "Brother Su, are you willing to be a hunter for the rest of your life?

As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to become a police officer. When the time comes, we will join forces and live a life that will be envied by everyone."

"Feel sorry."

Su Mu looked at Liu Hongyu calmly, expressed his respect for a girl's desire to pursue a better life, and then politely declined.

"It's impossible for me to be a police officer, not in this lifetime.

So, sister Liu, you should find another good partner."

Liu Hongyu stared at Su Mu in a daze, with deep disappointment in her eyes.

No matter how capable a man is, if he does not have any ambition, he is destined to be mediocre all his life.

"When you are old, you will regret it."

Liu Hongyu said before leaving.

Su Mu shrugged. Maybe, but he really couldn't be a police officer. He was already a constable in Nancheng Division. Did he have to demote himself to a lower level?
You want to marry a police officer, and I am a constable, so we are destined not to be together.

Liu Hongyu had just left and Su Mu was about to close the door when suddenly a hand reached in and blocked the wooden door.

"Yang Jin?"

Seeing the owner of the arm, Su Mu frowned slightly.

"I'm not here for revenge."

With a thick bandage wrapped around his shoulder, Yang Jin looked a little pale. He said in a low voice, "I want to talk to you."

"There seems to be nothing to talk about between you and me."

Su Mu said.

He had no grudge against Yang Jin before, but during the competition in Nancheng Division, Yang Jin showed no mercy. The three arrows he shot were aimed at taking his life.

Su Mu was very magnanimous by not shooting him.

But if Su Mu was asked to pretend that nothing had happened, he couldn't do it.

Treating Yang Jin as a passerby is his greatest kindness.

"Xing Zhaofu asked you to serve as the vanguard to attack Black Dragon Village. He asked me to shoot you in the chaos."

Yang Jin did not leave, but spoke in a deep voice.

Su Mu looked at him and was silent for a long time. Finally, he made way for him and said, "Come in."

Yang Jin entered the yard, Su Mu closed the gate, and then took Yang Jin into the room.

The two sat down opposite each other, and Su Mu finally spoke, "Why are you telling me this? If I'm not mistaken, you should be Xing Zhaofu's man, right?"

"I am not his, he is just using me."

Yang Jin shook his head and said, "I came to you because I know him. He is narrow-minded and vicious. If I shoot you as you said, he will definitely kill me afterwards to silence me."

"Then what do you mean by coming to see me?"

Su Mu asked doubtfully, "You don't think I have the ability to deal with him?"

"Xing Zhaofu is a warrior at the second level of Body Tempering. You and I combined are no match for him."

Yang Jin said, "I came to you because I want to cooperate with you."

"You've already said that even if we two join forces, we are no match for Xing Zhaofu. So what else can you do by cooperating with me?"

Su Mu asked.

"You don't know something."

Yang Jin said, "The Black Dragon Village attacked South City this time because South City sent troops to encircle and suppress them before. The reason why South City sent troops to encircle and suppress the Black Dragon Village was because it received an order from the inner city."

Su Mu frowned slightly, not understanding what this had to do with what Yang Jin had said before.

"You are now a registered constable in the South City Division. As long as you can perform great deeds during the siege of the Black Dragon Village, you will be able to attract the attention of the Sima and even the bigwigs in the inner city."

Yang Jin continued, "In this case, Xing Zhaofu won't dare to kill you.

And with your strength, it is difficult to achieve great success, so you need to cooperate with me!"
