Changsheng: I have been in Jiaofang Division for thousands of years

Zhao Mu stood up suddenly and rushed to the front of the bronze mirror.

In the bronze mirror, the white-haired old man had disappeared, replaced by a young man in his early twenties.

It was as wonderful as a world away, which made him feel unbelievable.

He circulated his true energy to check his condition.

I found that in addition to my body getting younger, my cultivation base is still in the innate state, and the first three gates of "Six Paths of the Gate of Heaven" are still open.

Obviously, the rejuvenation of reincarnation can preserve the achievements of each life.

This is exactly the same as his previous guess.

"Very good, then I will be able to live one life after another in the future, becoming stronger and stronger."

Zhao Mu smiled with satisfaction.

Chapter 24 Re-entering the Jiaofang Division

Capital, Jiaofang Division.

Liang Jian, the new capital judge, is listening to music in the oiran's room.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door: "Master Du Judge, someone is looking for you downstairs. He said he is Zhao Jinyan, Zhao Duzhi's nephew."

"Which Zhao knows?"

"It's those who have never been promoted for ten years, Zhao Mu and Zhao all know."

"Who?" Liang Jian's voice suddenly rose, "You're right, right?"

"It shouldn't be wrong, he came here with the certificate of the magistrate of Zhao Du."

"Okay, you take him to the front hall first, and I will go down after waiting."

"Yes, my lord."

People outside leave.

Liang Jian got up to straighten his clothes, full of surprise.

The name Zhao Mu is like a legendary existence in Jiaofang Division.

When other people became officials, they all sharpened their heads and climbed up, fearing that if they climbed slowly, they would be stepped on by their colleagues.

But that one is good, he has been a subordinate for decades and knows that he has never been promoted, and there is no one who is so idle.

Although it has been ten years since Zhao Mu left, people in the Jiaofang Division still mention this name from time to time after dinner.

lobby.

When Liang Jian walked in, he saw a young man drinking tea, his brows were indeed very similar to Zhao Mu back then.

"Are you Zhao Duzhi's nephew?" he asked.

Zhao Mu got up and saluted, and handed over the official certificate: "Junior Zhao Jinyan, I pay my respects to the judge. Zhao Mu is the uncle of this junior, and this is his official certificate."

Liang Jian took it and looked at it, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to see the old man again. After I entered the Jiaofang Division, I worked with your uncle and grandfather, and my father was even close to your uncle. "

This Liang Jian was the son of Liang Xingnan, the capital judge back then.

When Liang Jian entered Jiaofang Division, he was still a young man in his early twenties.

Now that more than 30 years have passed, the other party is also in his 50s and looks a little old.

"Zhao Du knows what's going on now?"

"My uncle passed away a few years ago."

"Hey, the old people are gone."

Liang Jian sighed: "Nephew, are you coming to the capital this time to work in the Jiaofang Division?"

"Yes, my uncle said that this junior has no skills, and he can make a living by entering the Jiaofang Division. Please allow me."

"Yes, our Jiaofang Division already has a practice of recommending juniors, but I don't know what my nephew wants to do, admonishing the family members of prisoners, or entertaining guests?"

"If the adults agree, the junior wants to guard the warehouse."

When Liang Jian heard this, he almost lost his temper.

This kid is young, is he just like his uncle, he also has the temperament of a wild crane?

Could it be that in my lifetime, I will meet another freak who has refused to be promoted for decades?

He looked strange: "It's okay to guard the warehouse, but according to the usual practice, all the juniors recommended by officials are Lezheng from the ninth rank when they first come in. The same is true for this official back then. If you want to be promoted, you can only go through seniority, or..."

Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Zhao Mu directly took out the bank note that had been prepared.

"My lord, this junior wants to donate the same position as my uncle, so please be more considerate."

Liang Jian's eyes lit up, this kid is on his way.

The Great Jin Dynasty allowed spending money to donate officials.

These banknotes were taken to the Ministry of Officials, and anyone who donated a Jiaofang Secretary knew from the seventh rank that it was definitely more than enough.

But Zhao Mu handed over the money to Liang Jian, the meaning of which can be understood by any fool.

"Hahahaha, it's easy to say, this matter is handed over to uncle, and I promise to help you handle it properly."

Liang Jian took the bank note, and his eyes were full of smiles: "Also, nephew, our two families are also considered family friends. If you have anything to do in Jiaofang Division, feel free to come to see uncle. Don't be polite."

Don't worry, you will never be polite.

Zhao Mu secretly laughed in his heart.

Sure enough, like a father like a son, Liang Jian, like Liang Xingnan, has a character that regards money as his life.

This is the best.

There is a boss who likes money.

In the future, my days in Jiaofang Division should be as comfortable as ever.

So two days later, Zhao Mu took it for granted and returned to the career for which he had "struggled all his life".

Practice walking every day!

Go to the bar and listen to the music without anything!

Occasionally release the Shravaka Gu to listen to those flowers and plants!

Well, decades have passed, and everything still has that familiar smell.

……

at night.

Zhao Mu sat cross-legged in the room to practice.

The true energy in the body was like a mighty river, flowing endlessly, and it gradually calmed down after a long while.

"Hey, I failed again. What is the opportunity to break through the Grandmaster?"

Zhao Mu was puzzled.

Now his cultivation has reached the innate limit, and he is only one step away from becoming a master.

But it is this last step, which is like a natural moat, which cannot be crossed no matter what.

"It seems that what Hua Xinzi said back then is correct. Martial arts start from innate, and you can't just rely on hard work. You must have enough understanding and opportunity."

In fact, Zhao Mu encountered the same thing once in the past, and it was the innate breakthrough of the acquired extreme state.

To break through the innate realm, a key problem must be solved - to get through the two veins of Ren and Du, and to connect the bridge of heaven and earth.

This is not an easy task, otherwise in the Great Jin Dynasty back then, there would have been pitifully few innate masters.

Or, you have excellent cultivation qualifications, and you can find an opportunity to connect the bridge between heaven and earth, such as that martial arts wizard——Zhanxiong.

Or, you can find rare and rare treasures, which can forcibly open up Ren Du's second channel, such as the Great King Kong Pill.

Back then, the Beimang Kingdom used the power of the whole country to refine only three Great Vajra Pills, which shows how precious they are.

With Zhao Mu's aptitude back then, if he hadn't relied on the Great Vajra Pill to accumulate a huge medicinal power in his body, he might not be able to break through the innate until the end of the first life.

Same now.

If he wants to step further into the Grandmaster, he must find the key to break through the Grandmaster, or find a treasure even more precious than the Great Vajra Pill.

As for the latter, I am afraid that there is little hope.

"It seems that we have to find a way to get in touch with the nine great masters, or their direct disciples."

Zhao Mu was thoughtful.

……

Silent all night.

The next day, early in the morning.

Zhao Mu strolled out of the Jiaofang Division and wandered around the capital.

It has been more than ten years since I left, and now the capital has changed a lot. Many shops that I used to be familiar with have changed owners.

Walking on Banyue Street, the former nameless tavern has also turned into an inn, and there are many guests coming in and out.

Zhao Mu stopped in his tracks, and couldn't help but recall Hua Xinzi and Jiang Hongyun.

I wonder if the two of them have entered reincarnation?

If one day he cultivated Taoism and became immortal, would he be able to find their reincarnation bodies?

"Become an immortal? I don't know how many lifetimes I have practiced before I can embark on that path?"

Zhao Mu shook his head and continued on his way, ready to see Zheng Jingren.

After all, that was his only friend in the capital.

But when he came to Zheng's mansion, Zhao Mu was dumbfounded.

I saw the huge house that was once crowded with people, but now it is deserted, even the plaque on the door has fallen off, and no one pays attention to it.

"What's going on, what about the Zheng family?"

Zhao Mu was surprised.

After he returned to his old age, he even inquired about things in the capital.

At that time, I heard that Zheng Jingren, who was already in his 70s, seemed to be about to be promoted again, and apparently he was doing well in the court.

Why did the Zheng family's house fall into disrepair in less than half a year?

Chapter 25 Are there really demons in the world?

Zhao Mu looked around and found a blind old beggar under the corner not far away, so he walked over.

Dang!

He threw two copper coins into the bowl casually.

"Thank you, my lord, and I wish you a long life."

The old beggar scratched his messy hair like a chicken coop, and said perfunctory without raising his head.

Longevity is not a good word for me.

Zhao Mu shook his head, took out a few pieces of silver, and touched the blind old beggar's ear.

"I have something to ask you, answer it, these are all yours."

"Hey, nobleman, if you ask, the old man knows everything."

"Tell me what happened to the Zheng family?"

"Did you just come to the capital?"

"How to say?"

"Hey, anyone who has lived in the capital for a while knows what happened to the Zheng family. After all, it's only been three months."

The old beggar's laughter was a bit strange: "Three months ago at night, a humanoid monster covered with green feathers suddenly broke into Zheng's mansion and killed all the people in this mansion, leaving no one alive."
