Strange World: My Systematic Practice Life

at dusk.

A group of people finally reached the top of the city.

It was no surprise to be in the queue.

They arrived soon, but the reviewing officer looked at the sky.

"Okay, that's all for today, those who haven't entered the city can spend the night outside."

Hearing this, Zhou Hu was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"My lord, let us go in. We have been traveling all the way from Tianshui for a long time, and we are already a little tired."

As he spoke, Zhou Hu took out a silver ingot from his pocket and handed it over.

The officer weighed the silver ingots, his cold and stern face softened a little, but when he heard that a few people came from Tianshui City, his face became serious again.

"Tianshui City? It's okay if other places let you in today, but Tianshui has to come, no!"

"My lord, why is this!?"

Zhou Hu suddenly asked in confusion.

Unexpectedly, the soldier didn't have any intention of explaining, waved his hand and said impatiently.

"Why do you ask so many questions, the official said no, it just didn't work."

As he spoke, he was about to go back, and as for the silver ingot, he had already stuffed it into his bosom.

Seeing this, Zhou Hu's expression turned ugly.

After all, he is a pulse congealing martial artist, and there is no one else, but he has a bit of a temper. Seeing that he can't enter the city after paying a silver tael, he suddenly feels a little angry.

He just glanced at the soldiers lined up on the wall, but he didn't dare to attack.

Xiao Yun's face behind her was also a bit uneasy, but she still opened her mouth to speak.

"Brother Zhou, since it doesn't work, let's stay outside for one night, at worst, we will go into the city tomorrow."

Egret doesn't have any objection to this, after all, it's better to do less and see more.

Annan is different from Tianshui.

Just when a few people were planning to go back.

"Is Master Bailu Bai down there?"

At this moment, a voice came from above the city.

Bailu looked up and saw a man in brocade clothes on the city wall who looked like a scholar.

Seeing the appearance of the egret, the man with the appearance of a scribe seemed a little more certain.

Soon he walked down from the city wall.

"Master Bai, Song has been waiting here for a long time."

The scribe came to the egret and said with a smile.

"You are... thank you for the arrangement."

Hearing this, Egret also thought of something and said.

He remembered that Xie Xixuan said that he had arranged someone to take care of him in Annan, and it must be the scribe in front of him.

"Exactly!" The scribe nodded in agreement.

"I'm Seinfeld, Master Bai has been exhausted all the way, and I have already prepared a banquet for you to wash away the dust."

"That's fine." Egret nodded.

"Master Bai, please follow me." After saying that, Sein Fei stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.

Seeing this, the city guard officer opened his mouth, and finally spoke.

"Master Song, who is this?"

"This is Mr. Bai who was transferred from Tianshui. He will be working in the yamen in the past two days."

Song Fei explained lightly.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on the officer's face.

"It turned out to be from my family, but Mr. Zhang was blind before, Master Bai didn't open his mouth just now, please come in quickly."

"It's okay." Bai Lu also smiled back, and then pointed to Zhou Hu and the others behind him.

"These are friends who came with me."

"It's easy to talk, come in quickly." The military officer surnamed Zhang had a smile on his face, and there was no sign of his original impatience.

At this moment, Zhou Hu, Xiao Yun and the others behind were already stunned by this sudden scene.

He didn't react until he heard the greeting of the egret, and drove the carriage to the city.

When passing by the soldier guarding the city, the soldier surnamed Zhang took out an ingot of silver from his arms and handed it to Zhou Hu calmly, and patted his shoulder with a smile.

As a small official of the city gate, his ability to serve food when he sees people is not ordinary.

Knowing that this person was transferred to the government office, he is at least a rank nine official.

Although it is said that the government office and the city guard are two branches.

But it's not something he, an unqualified petty official, can provoke.

He didn't want to affect his fat job at the gate of the city because of this kind of thing.

It wasn't until a group of people entered the city and walked out for a while that Zhou Hu came to his senses dizzily.

Looking at the heavy silver in his hand, it was obviously bigger than what he had given out before.

It was Xiao Yun who reacted first, with a smile on her face, and said.

"I didn't expect Bai Xiao...Brother Bai Lu is an official in the government office."

"It's just a head catcher in Tianshui, you're welcome." Bailu replied lightly.

"Ms. Song ordered a meal at Yinwanke restaurant in the city. Whether you want to come together or not, I should welcome you."

"No, thank you Mr. Song for your kindness."

Xiao Yun declined after thinking about it, but said to Bailu again.

"Since we've arrived in Annan City, Xiaoyuan and I will go to our residence first, so we won't bother Brother Bailu."

"So, that's fine."

Egret nodded.

The group of people left in two groups.

After walking a certain distance, Zhou Hu couldn't help but speak.

"Sister Xiao, why did you refuse just now? This is a good opportunity to get in touch with the government office. By then, your Xiao family's business will be much more secure. Tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that Brother Bai would be in the government office. The head catcher must be at least Tsing Yi."

"Such a young Tsing Yi, that's really amazing."

Zhou Hu babbled and said repeatedly.

"Brother Zhou, do you think I don't want to, but this kind of thing can't be rushed. It's really unexpected that Brother Bailu can be transferred to Annan."

Xiao Yun also spoke unexpectedly, and then looked at Xiaoyuan behind her.

"Xiaoyuan, why didn't you tell me that Bai Lu is working as a head arrester in the government office?"

"Ah... what are you talking about, mother?"

Since entering the city, Xiaoyuan has been in a trance from time to time, and there is a bit of light in Yuanyuan's big eyes.

"You……"

Looking at her daughter, Xiao Yun didn't know what to say for a moment.

On the other side, Bai Lu led the horse and followed Song Fei on the street, and Du Yuzhu with a curious expression on the horse's back.

People come and go in the county town, and all kinds of novelties are things that have never been seen in Tianshui City.

Even the pedestrians on the street have different appearances, and from time to time, a few foreigners who are obviously not from the big jade come out, and they don't know which country they are from.

For this, Egret was also a little surprised.

The avenue on the county city street is about ten meters wide, the road is clean, and there is a constant flow of people on the street, even though it is already night time.

The streets on both sides have already been lit with candles and torches early, without the slightest hint of desertedness, just like a city that never sleeps.

You must know that the value of lamp oil is not cheap in this world, and I am afraid that I don't know how much lamp oil will cost this night.
