I have a knife, I can kill monsters when I take it out of its sheath

Ji Chen finally arrived in Liangzhou City before the Lantern Festival.

Liangzhou City, also known as Liangzhou Mansion, after Ji Chen entered the city, he first reported to the Demon Town Department and registered.

This is what must be done. Whenever the Black Flag user arrives at a place, he must first register with the Demon Suppression Department.

Liangzhou Town Demon Division occupies a very large area and suppresses thirty-eight counties in the nine cities of Liangzhou Prefecture.

After Ji Chen registered, he met Xie Anbing and reported the strange events he encountered along the way from Fenglin Town, in detail.

In fact, there is nothing to hide. Some things are better to hide than to tell them. Once the Demon Suppression Division finds out something, it will be difficult to explain.

Sincerity is always the number one skill.

Of course, he concealed his encounter with the Ten Thousand Years Immortal Body at the bottom of the lake and his achievement of the Dragon Capturing Skill.

Sincerity does not mean stupidity.

Ji Chen gave a rough description of the demon slaying in the Immortal Mountains, including the strange encounters in the mountain temple.

Especially when slaying demons in the Qunxian Mountains, there were traces of the Shenhuo Cult, which aroused Xie Anbing's caution and even reported it to the governor himself.

In the land of a government, the highest official of the Demon Suppression Department is the Suppressing Envoy, who is from the fifth rank and guards the demons in one area.

Under the Zhenfu envoy, there are five general banners directly under the general banner. Under the general banner are the flag officials, and under the flag officials are the small flags.

Under normal circumstances, flag officers and small flags are not distinguished by their positions, but only by their grades. Of course, their salaries are also different.

However, in the event of an emergency mission, such as the death of the general flag in battle, the flag officer can take command of the general flag.

Ji Chen was recruited by General Banner Xie An Bing. In theory, he belonged to Xie An Bing's command. After registering with the Demon Division of Liangchengfu Town, his command belonged to Xie An Bing's command.

The person responsible for recording Ji Chen's meritorious service was Xie An Bing's deputy, named Zhao Pan. When he learned that Ji Chen's cousin was Bei Gui, he was suddenly surprised.

"Are you Ji Beigui?"

"It's me!" Ji Chen nodded in agreement, and then said: "The elder gave me my nickname when I left the wilderness."

Zhao Pan quickly said: "I am smiling to the sky with my horizontal sword, leaving behind my liver and gallbladder. These two poems were written by you."

Ji Chen nodded, "I occasionally get a good hand, but I can't say it's a masterpiece. How do you know, brother?"

"Brother Beigui, you are too polite. These two lines of poetry are so heroic. Who else but me? They have spread throughout Liangzhou City and are deeply loved by demon slayers and people in the world. Even some of our Demon Suppressing Department and the Ministry of War My brothers all love it very much. These two lines of poems express their inner feelings, and they have the courage to do anything else. It makes people's blood rush and their hearts yearn for it."

"And your words, endless cups of wine, endless enemies to kill, have been praised by all kinds of people in the world. Even the Lord and the governor have praised you. Brother Beigui, you are already famous. ”

Even before he arrives, his reputation has already spread!

Even Ji Chen didn't expect that the two lines of poetry he recited casually would cause such a big sensation.

"Brother Beigui came to Liangcheng to place an order. He is going to stay for a while. If you have nowhere to go, you can go to my house. I have an idle building and can give you a cheaper rent."

Ji Chen thought for a while and nodded in agreement. He really wanted to live in Liangzhou City for a while.

Mr. Fang wanted him to go to Kyoto to attend the Spring Festival, but there were still two years until the Spring Festival, so Ji Chen was not in a hurry.

Cultivation is both practice and action. Seeing the customs and customs of various places is also a kind of practice.

read more, walk more.

Under the leadership of Zhao Pan, Ji Chen came to his house, which was a courtyard house and occupied a prosperous area.

There is no one else in the family except Zhao Pan. He inherited his father's position and became the Demon Suppressing Envoy of the Demon Suppressing Department.

Zhao Pan also read books in his early years, but his father died at the hands of a demon during a mission to suppress demons, and his mother died in depression.

So Xie Anbing found Zhao Pan and arranged for him to join the Demon Zhen Division, making him a small flag under Zhen Hongqi. Since his cultivation level was not very high, he was assigned to be responsible for registration and other matters. He was also considered Xie An Bing's Deputy.

Zhao Pan arranged the wing room for Ji Chen and helped him clean it up, giving him one tael of silver a month.

One tael of silver, one thousand cash, not too cheap.

It is indeed not cheap compared to a private house, but Zhao Pan's house is in a very good location, with a relatively large yard and is very clean. It is really not expensive for one thousand, while other places cost one thousand forty-five.

Moreover, Ji Chen also prefers this kind of relatively clean and peaceful yard.

Ji Chen settled down and bought some furniture and supplies.

After wandering around for two days, I became familiar with Liangzhou City.

Liangzhou City is very big, no worse than those first-tier cities in previous lives, and even more grand.

Liangzhou City is particularly lively today because it is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

This is the Shangyuan Festival. As one of the busiest festivals in this era, the excitement of the Shangyuan Festival cannot be described in words.

River cruises, temple fairs, lantern festivals, various activities are already going on, and there are huge crowds of people.

Qingshui River in particular is the busiest, with the largest flower boat there.

Compared with the day, the activities at night are more exciting. Rich ladies, harried wives, down-and-out scholars, rough warriors, tenant farmers, long-term laborers, traffickers and pawns, and skilled craftsmen are all looking forward to the night.

As for why we waited for nightfall, the details cannot be elaborated. If you say too much, you will be banned. All kinds of wonderful things, friends, please take a closer look.

It was rare for the Demon Suppression Department to have a holiday, so one third of the Demon Suppression Envoys were left on duty while the rest were on vacation.

What a coincidence, Zhao Pan is on the watch list.

Ji Chen didn't have to be on duty, but he didn't go to the temple fair either. Instead of going to those boring lantern fairs and temple fairs, he might as well spend his limited time practicing.

Ji Chen's goal has always been clear. From the moment he picked up the knife, he strengthened his belief.

Meditate, practice Qi?

No, mountain people have their own way.

Compared with you who can easily improve your cultivation by meditating and refining your Qi, I can't. I can only go through life and death, work hard to slay demons and monsters, and gain points to increase my improvement.

After being immersed in it for half a day, Ji Chen sorted out and summarized what he had learned and clearly changed his future direction.

The innate skills are already there, and the Yanyang Sword Technique is complete, which is enough for now, at least during the innate period there is no need for other sword techniques.

As for the cohesion of Confucianism, Taoism and Wen Gong, Ji Chen did not expect it.

The realm of Confucianism and Taoism is not that clear. Ji Chen feels that his cultivation of Confucianism and Taoism is probably at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment. This is what he compared with martial arts.

As for Taoism, the realm is even less clear. Ji Chen has always used Qi refining as a supplement, and he also figured out some small spells by himself.

Ji Chen made clear his future direction, focusing on martial arts, supplemented by Confucianism and Taoism.

The current shortcomings are in two aspects, the Confucian and Taoist methods, and the method of using magic.

Confucianism, Taoism and magic have obvious advantages in dealing with weirdness. Martial arts are obviously strong in slaying monsters.

"Go to the Demon Suppressing Division's arsenal and find some methods on Confucianism and Taoism."

After clarifying his goal, Ji Chen stood up and walked towards the Demon Suppression Division.

However, as soon as he arrived at the gate of the Demon Suppression Division, he met Zhao Pan.

Zhao Pan hurriedly found Ji Chen and said that Xie Anbing asked to see him.

This surprised Ji Chen, but he didn't ask any more questions and let Zhao Pan lead the way.

Zhao Pan walked in front, and Ji Chen followed behind. Unlike Zhao Pan, Ji Chen still wore the black flag officer's clothes inside, and a cyan brocade gown outside, with a broken army sword inserted at his waist, and a white cloak draped behind him.

Zhao Pan was a little confused and asked Ji Chen why he didn't wear the black flag official uniform outside.

After all, official clothes are a symbol and are respected by people wherever they go.

Ji Chen did the opposite, which was tantamount to walking at night in brocade clothes.

Ji Chen's answer was, keep a low profile.

Low profile = boring high profile!

High profile = a sign of being killed!

If you don't keep a low profile, how can there be blind people to provoke you, and how can you provide yourself with killing points.

It is not easy for me to practice. It all depends on adding more points. How can I break through the great path without using my brain.

Unlike you, you can break through to the first level in three to five years by meditating.

My cold is finally getting better, and I have resumed normal updates. I will update one chapter first, and the second update is being stacked...
