The First Marquis of Daxuan

Chapter 72 Harvest and Perfection (Please read, collect, and vote for the monthly ticket)

Two hundred taels of gold and one thousand five hundred taels of silver.

This is the silver money that Su Mu deducted from the captured spoils this time.

What he left behind were all real gold and silver. As for other antique calligraphy and paintings, although they were valuable, Su Mu had no suitable channel to cash them out, so they were not as practical as real gold and silver.

The money had already been deducted from the compensation given to Wei Yongfu.

Su Mu had no clear understanding of the possibility of getting rich by being an official.

This time I really experienced it.

This income is equivalent to Wei Yongfu's hard work for a year.

Wei Yongfu is not an ordinary person.

He is a ghostwriter at the third level of Body Tempering, so he makes a lot of money.

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably not be able to earn so much money in his entire life.

"It is good to practice in the government."

Su Mu felt emotional in his heart. If he didn't have the identity of a captain of the police, it would not be easy to earn so much money even with his current strength.

"Apart from the money, the biggest gain from this trip is actually this—"

Su Mu took out a bundle from the bottom of the box with a serious expression.

There were three booklets in the bundle.

This was something he left behind specifically after discovering it at the Wutan Sect headquarters.

Three booklets, two on flesh-tempering techniques and one on sword techniques.

There are two methods of quenching meat, one is the antelope meat quenching method, and the other is the white ape meat quenching method.

Antelopes fly across the sky and white apes climb high.

Different from the Savage Elephant Flesh Tempering Method that Su Mu is currently practicing, the flesh and blood produced by these two flesh tempering methods are more inclined to agility and flight.

If you can master all these flesh-tempering methods, your flesh and blood will not only be as thick and heavy as a mountain, but also flexible and agile.

As for the Wind-Breaking Sword Technique, it can serve as a supplement to the Fu Bo Sword Technique and make up for the weakness of the single combat method.

Su Mu carefully studied two techniques and one martial art, and remained silent all night.

…………

On the first day that Su Mu officially became the chief constable, he asked his men to find out all the unsolved cases in Nancheng Division.

Zheng Wang, Luo Chang and other squad leaders initially thought that Su Mu was just a new official with three major changes to his job, but later they found out that they were wrong.

From that day on, Captain Su became famous.

He is either solving a case or on his way to solving one.

As a result, the entire appearance of South City began to change.

All the petty thieves on the streets have disappeared, not because they have reformed, but because they have all been caught and thrown into jail.

Those gangs were unable to figure out Su Mu's tactics for a while and all chose to wait and see.

With the experience of the Wu Tian Sect as a lesson, they all became much more low-key.

After Su Mu's operation, the person who was happiest was He Yuxing, the Sima of Nancheng Division.

The crime clearance rate in South City has skyrocketed and the social outlook has taken on a new look.

He Yuxing stayed at home and achieved great success.

…………

"You work so hard, but in the end you are just making things easier for others."

In the backyard, Luo Anning sat opposite Su Mu and spoke slowly.

"You didn't have to endure this hardship."

She looked at Su Mu with a serious expression.

This is not the first time Luo Anning has come to see Su Mu.

This was her third visit in recent months.

She has not given up on recruiting Su Mu for the Luo family.

"Is it hard? I don't think so."

Su Mu shook his head.

"Just for a salary of fifteen taels of silver per month, you have wasted a lot of time on the affairs of the head of the police. Do you know that you are wasting your life by doing this?"

Luo An Ning frowned slightly and said, "If you continue like this, how can you possibly cultivate to the fourth level of body tempering before you are twenty years old?"

Impossible?

Su Mu smiled and said nothing.

"Miss Luo, I can promise you that if I am really eliminated by the Taiping Division, I will ask the Luo family for food. How about that?"

Since the other party has visited him three times, he cannot help but give him face.

"That's what you said!"

Luo Anning was delighted.

She will definitely become the Taiping Commander, or even the Taiping Colonel in the future. Once she becomes the Taiping Commander, it will be inconvenient for her to manage the Luo family's affairs.

The Taiping Division needs to maintain fairness and justice and cannot stand up for one family or one surname.

But the Luo family needs someone to hold up the family.

Apart from her, the other disciples of the Luo family were not very promising, so Luo An Ning chose Su Mu.

She has already committed herself to the Taiping Division and cannot take care of her family, so she will find someone to replace her.

"a man of his words."

Su Mu said.

Will he be eliminated by the Taiping Division?
impossible.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, a system panel appeared in front of Su Mu's eyes that only he could see.

[Name: Su Mu]

[Identity: Head of the Police/Taiping Division White-robed (Ninth Rank)]

[Points: 900 points]

[Realm: Second level of body tempering (ultimate level of skin tempering)]

[Kung Fu: White Ape Flesh Tempering Method (Great Mastery), Savage Elephant Flesh Tempering Method (Perfection)...]

[Martial Arts: Fubo Sword Skills (Perfect), Pofeng Sword Skills (Great), Archery (Beginner/+)]

Although it seems that he has been busy performing the duties of a chief constable in the past few months, his strength has actually undergone tremendous changes.

The Savage Elephant Flesh Tempering Method has been perfected, and the second Flesh Tempering Method has also been perfected.

He also practiced two martial arts to the level of perfection.

After tonight, he would be able to accumulate another 1,000 points, allowing him to push the White Ape Flesh Tempering Technique or the Wind-Breaking Sword Technique to perfection.

Before he was eighteen, Que Rou was about to reach the pinnacle of his practice and would soon master the second perfect martial art.

Su Mu thought he was okay.

"Because of you, He Yuxing will be promoted soon."

Luo An Ning said, "It's a pity that your qualifications are a little shallow, otherwise I can find a way to help you take the position of Sima of Nancheng Division."

Su Mu: "..."

Is this the benefit of clinging to someone powerful?
The captain of police was just a minor official of the ninth rank, while Sima Ke was already a seventh rank official.

It is no exaggeration to say that the two are worlds apart.

Under normal circumstances, a captain of police may not be able to be promoted to the seventh rank in his lifetime.

Considering Luo Anning's identity, a seventh-rank Sima of the outer city, it doesn't seem like a big deal.

"Is He Yuxing going to be promoted?"

Su Mu pondered.

"He has made great contributions in governing South City."

Luo Anning glanced at Su Mu. Although she knew that all this was Su Mu's credit, Su Mu, the captain of the police, was indeed a subordinate of Sima of the Nancheng Division.

"When did this happen?"

Su Mu asked thoughtfully.

"I don't know the exact date, but it won't be more than a month."

Luo Anning said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the person who will take over will be Wang Guan from the Wang family."

"Wang Guan?"

Su Mu was a little surprised. He had an impression of this name, but this person's status and position seemed to be higher than He Yuxing's. How could he succeed He Yuxing?
"I heard that Wang Guan took the initiative to ask to come here."

Luo An Ning said casually that she didn’t care about these things, and changed the subject, “Although it would be more beneficial for me if you were eliminated by the Taiping Division, I still hope that you can improve your strength as much as possible.

If you have any questions about cultivation, feel free to ask me."

"I heard that there is another world above the perfection of martial arts and sword power?"

Since Luo An Ning said so, Su Mu had a lot of questions, so he took this opportunity to ask them immediately.

"That's right, above momentum is intention, and above intention is image."

Luo An Ning nodded and said, "I remember that you seem to be practicing the Fu Bo Sword Technique.

The Fu Bo swordsmanship is not top-notch. It is really not easy for you to master the sword moves.

But if you want to comprehend the artistic conception, it may be impossible. I suggest you practice a few more sword techniques related to water. If you can comprehend a few more sword techniques related to water, you may be able to comprehend the artistic conception."

"And the elephant?"

Su Mu seemed to be thinking about something.

"The limit of martial arts is the vision. It is said that a strong man who has mastered the vision can make a river of water come up from the sky with one swing of his sword. That is the vision of heaven and earth."

Luo An Ning said, "But that's just a legend. Even the warriors who have mastered the state of mind are rare. You don't need to understand the vision."
