Forced Marriage [Cultivation]

The big fire last year turned most of the Law Enforcement Palace into scorched earth.After eight months of construction and consuming a lot of manpower and material resources, the new Law Enforcement Palace was erected.In order to maintain the original appearance, the reconstructed Law Enforcement Palace is basically the same as the original one. Except for the slightly new color of the bricks and columns, the rest are exactly the same as the original Law Enforcement Palace.

Yan Mingtang is the core department of the Law Enforcement Palace. In addition to being responsible for the interrogation of criminals in major cases, it is also responsible for receiving all kinds of incidents that happened in the city that day. Whenever there is any public security problem in the city, Yan Mingtang must be the first to report.

Therefore, Yan Mingtang's staff on duty is very important, and there must be a chief disciple on duty at twelve hours a day.There are currently two elders in charge of the Law Enforcement Palace, one is Huo Elder and the other is Zuo Elder.According to the regulations, only the eldest disciple of the elder in charge can be called the chief, and also qualified to sit in the Yan Ming hall and handle the affairs of the Law Enforcement Palace.The chief disciples of these two elders, one is Elder Huo's disciple named Zhuo Xinian, and the other is Elder Zuo's disciple Ge Changshu.But what is against the rules is that besides the two chief disciples of the chief elder of the Law Enforcing Palace, there is another chief disciple of the Law Enforcing Palace, and he is also the eldest disciple, and this person is Gu Baitang.

Gu Baitang's identity is very strange.

He is the chief disciple of the Law Enforcement Palace, but his master is the Elder Yusu of the Imperial Dining Room.He was on duty at the Yan Mingtang of the Law Enforcement Palace, so it was a bit strange.But ever since Gu Baitang lost his memory and returned to West City, he was still on duty at Yan Mingtang in the Law Enforcement Palace as before.What is even more strange is that no one has any objection to this matter.From the elders of the various palaces to the disciples of Mancheng, no one has ever questioned this matter.

In the blink of an eye, it's September, and it's time to welcome new students.There are fewer new disciples this time than the previous one, only three.One of the male disciples entered the Bodhidharma Academy, and what made people's eyes shine was that the other two twin sisters entered the Law Enforcement Palace.

As we all know, the Law Enforcement Palace has always been the most stringent in recruiting students, and the standards for new students have reached a heinous level.This year, they recruited two at once, and they were still sisters, which naturally attracted the attention of all palaces.They are very curious about who is sacred and what kind of ability it is.

This year, Zhuo Xinian is in charge of the special training for freshmen, the second-in-command of the chief disciple of the Law Enforcement Palace.It is said that in the past it was always Gu Baitang, but this year it was suddenly changed to Zhuo Xinian, which inevitably aroused discussions about whether Elder Huo wanted to help his disciple to the top.

Gu Baitang's status is special. It was Elder Yusu who issued the ban, and no one dared to discuss it in private.Gu Baitang has always been rigorous, and the outside world has unanimously high evaluations, so he is quite convinced of his prestige.

But Zhuo Xinian was different. Although he was a disciple of Elder Huo, he was arrogant and offended many people.Recently, some people have been rumoring that there is a problem with his relationship with his wife, which seems to be due to the appearance of a third party.But who this third party is, each has its own theory.Some people said it was Ge Changshu, the third disciple of Law Enforcing Palace, while others said it was Zhu Bishi from before. What he said had a nose and eyes, making it difficult to tell the truth from the fake.Although Zhuo Xinian has some charisma, he is indeed easy to provoke some flowers and plants.At this juncture, letting Zhuo Xinian take charge of this year's special training for freshmen will inevitably attract criticism.

In the evening of that day, after Gu Baitang finished doing chores in the imperial dining room, he took a shower and changed into clean clothes, and went to the Yan Ming Hall of the Law Enforcement Palace to change shifts as usual.To say that Gu Baitang's dual status as a disciple of the Imperial Dining Room of the Law Enforcement Palace did not bring him much benefit, but more laborious work.In addition to being on duty at the Yan Ming Hall in the Law Enforcement Palace as usual, he also had to work as a coolie in the Imperial Dining Room.People often see Gu Baitang leading his disciples in the morning to enforce the law and deal with criminals in a majestic manner, and at night they see this guy carrying water and firewood with his sleeves rolled up and his clothes in his hands. They all express that the contrast is too great to accept.

Gu Baitang came to Yan Mingtang, where a woman was sorting out the final files before the case.Looking up to see Gu Baitang coming in, he nodded and said politely: "Brother Gu, this is the case that was sent up this afternoon, and I have read it all. These are small things, and I have assigned them to other disciples. Here is a The book was just delivered a moment ago, and the situation is rather complicated, so I have no right to deal with it, so you can go through it first to see if you want to send it to the elders' house for a decision."

This woman is the third chief disciple of the Law Enforcing Palace, Ge Changshu, in the middle stage of Jindan, and her family belongs to the old wave of Xianmen family that has declined a little in recent years.Slender eyes, long eyebrows, oval face, snow-skinned red lips.Be cautious and polite, indifferent and alienated.It is said that the monks who pursued her double cultivation lined up from Xicheng to Beihai, but what is regrettable is that Ge Changshu has been in Xicheng for ten years and has never fallen in love with any man or woman.Gu Baitang's impression of her is uncertain, he used to think she was pretty good, but recently someone spread that Ge Changshu was the third party of Zhuo Xinian and his wife, so he couldn't help but have a different view of this person.

"Well, thank you." Gu Baitang also nodded coldly.

Ge Changshu saluted and walked out of Yan Mingtang without any extra words.The sense of presence is not strong, which can reduce the strange eyes of others on her to a certain extent.And since the rumors started, Ge Changshu has been indifferent, so someone is not Ge Changshu, but Zhu Bishi.But Zhu Bishi has already been imprisoned in the Palace of Locking Demons, which is even more nonsense.Then some people said that since last year they saw Zhuo Xinian flirting with a law enforcement court lady disciple, who is it?

Gu Baitang shook his head, shaking out these gossips.He probably has done a lot of physical work recently, and his mind has become more and more dull.Today, the chef in charge of the imperial dining room said that he is more and more like his brother Jiang Zhoumian, they are both capable and hard-working, Gu Baitang is not at all happy to receive this praise.Everyone knows that his senior brother is a big fool, and now this big fool can't wake up in the Yunding Sect, so he, the second fool, has come to take the place of the big fool and do all kinds of chores in the imperial dining room.

Thinking of the Yunding Sect, Gu Baitang, who was sitting at the table and had just flipped through two pages of files, suddenly became alive again.In the blink of an eye, it was almost three months.I don't know how the little headmaster is doing...

While Gu Baitang was wandering in vain, someone walked into Yan Mingtang, and there was still a lot of movement and aggression, it could be seen that the person who came was not in a good mood.

Gu Baitang hurriedly frowned, and refocused his eyes on nothingness, staring at the title page of the dossier.As soon as I read the words "Department Locking the Demon Palace" in the report, I heard a deep and sullen voice.

"Brother Gu, you should do the special training for freshmen."

As soon as he heard it, he knew it was Zhuo Xinian. He thought he had run into some trouble, or he was said to be angry.

Gu Baitang raised his eyes and stared at the person with black eyes for a long time before saying, "I won't do it."

"Why?" Zhuo Xinian sat on the chair for a while, his anger seemed to have subsided a lot, and he gradually calmed down.

"I carry water and firewood all day, and I have to be on duty in Yan Mingtang, too tired." Gu Baitang told the truth.

Zhuo Xinian nodded and said nothing.He didn't seem to really want to be in charge of the special training for freshmen. He came here to vent his anger on Gu Baitang, probably because he had no one else to talk to.It is impossible for those rumors outside to have no effect on Zhuo Xinian.Those rumors are probably groundless and not groundless.It can be seen from this that maybe Zhuo Xinian's relationship with his wife has really gone wrong, but no one knows whether the third party is Ge Changshu or Zhu Bishi.

Gu Baitang didn't ask anything, he was not interested in Zhuo Xinian's affairs.Although he still bears the title of Chief Disciple of the Law Enforcement Palace, many rights have actually been gradually transferred.Master Huo didn't seem to trust him too much, he lowered his head and looked at the file seriously, the more he looked at it, the more his brows were furrowed.

"What's wrong?" Zhuo Xinian asked.

Gu Baitang handed the file to Zhuo Xinian with an extremely serious expression.

Zhuo Xinian took the file and looked at it, and immediately sat up straight from the paralyzed body, "Li Qingyi almost ran away?!"

Seeing that Gu Baitang was still sitting there, he called him: "What are you doing sitting there? This Li Qingyi is a special prisoner on the seventh floor. Isn't he pretending to be the head teacher?!"

Gu Baitang said slowly: "It is 'almost escaped', which means that he did not escape successfully."

Zhuo Xinian paused: "Oh."

Gu Baitang thought for a moment, "How about... Junior Brother Zhuo, I'd better drive you to Suomo Palace."

"Why don't you go by yourself?" Zhuo Xinian stared at him, his eyes were as big as copper bells, he wanted to say that everyone knew about your relationship with the head teacher, why did you want me to run this leg, but he couldn't open his mouth when he said that. Without opening his mouth, he suddenly remembered that Elder Yusu had issued a ban on [-] disciples in Xicheng.This ban is really evil, as long as there is something about the relationship between Wu Conglian and Jiang Suxing and Gu Baitang, no matter how you change the way you say it, you will never open your mouth.But as long as there are other things in other places, there is nothing wrong with saying the names of these two people.

Regarding Zhuo Xinian's doubts, Gu Baitang took it for granted: "I'm on duty."

"Success, you are the senior brother." Zhuo Xinian stood up, sighed, and stretched out.

After Zhuo Xinian left, Gu Baitang brightened the candles and continued to look through the file.

When the night reaches You, the twilight is heavy, and the lights are about to burn out.

Gu Baitang closed the case file, rubbed the center of his eyebrows, leaned back on the chair, and closed his eyes.It was probably because he was so tired running around the imperial dining room of the Law Enforcement Palace these days that he fell asleep unknowingly.

"Gu Baitang, you have to remember me, you can't forget me, you can't in this life."

Suddenly a voice rang in his ears, and Gu Baitang was so frightened that he suddenly opened his eyes.

The night outside Yan Mingtang was dark, there was no one around, the lights had been burned out, only the halo of the red lanterns outside the courtyard shone in, dyeing the room with a faint red light.

It turned out to be just a dream.

Gu Baitang leaned back on the chair again, and he stretched out his hand to touch his left shoulder, the place next to his neck.I rubbed my fingers lightly, and after three months, it was as if I had been possessed by an evil spirit, and it still couldn't heal.

Why can't it get better?Is it because the little teacher bit too hard?What is the reason?

Li Qingyi, who locked the Demon Palace, is a hidden danger, which is worrying.However, the little head teacher had specifically instructed him before retreating, no matter what happened to Li Qingyi, he should not intervene.It seemed that the possibility of Li Qingyi's escape had long been expected.

Zhuo Xinian didn't come back for so long, and no one came to report, so it should be fine to come to Suomo Palace.

Gu Baitang lit a red candle again, and continued to read through the pile of files.

At the same time, inside the Yunding Sect, there was a white mist in the sea of ​​illusory, covering the sky and the sun, and it was cold and chilling.

In this bitter white mist, a meditating figure looms, hazy.

When the fog dissipated, I saw the man in white clothes and black hair, with snowy skin and no makeup, with a little red sand between his brows.

This person is Jiang Suxing.It has been three months since he entered the customs, and he has gradually calmed down and entered the state in the past few days.This meditation has been going on for seven days, and it is the longest time for him to "concentrate the mind and gather the essence".
