Chapter 5: Dry Weather
Lu Qinghou?
Guanzhong hero?

Just reading the Jianghu Monthly, Su Qing felt familiar and connected it with the Guanzhong hero Lu Qinghou.

The words "Tongfu Inn" immediately flashed through his mind.

"I didn't expect that Ming Jianghu would also incorporate "Wulin Wai Zhuan" into it."

The Mountain and River List, as the name suggests, is composed of famous martial arts masters who have conquered the country with their fists.

The Dragon and Tiger List is for the chosen ones, and only outstanding newcomers under the age of 30 can enter.

While the two of them were patrolling the streets, Wan Ping also introduced many masters on the Mountain and River List and the Dragon and Tiger List.

Su Qing also listened with great interest.

Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard, and the two immediately became alert.

A cloud-piercing arrow appeared in Wan Ping's left hand, and a fire starter appeared in his right hand, ready to ignite the cloud-piercing arrow at any time.

The Ming Dynasty has a curfew, and two Jinyiwei patrol the streets.
They had no ability to deal with major sudden incidents at night, and the only thing they could do was to use cloud-piercing arrows to alert the top masters of the Ming Dynasty court.

Unlike Wan Ping, Su Qing placed his right hand on the Embroidered Spring Knife and shouted at the approaching figure, "Who are you? Stand still!"

"Who is Su Qing?
I am Fangnan, a cavalryman under the command of Zhang Ying, a centurion of the East City Archery Division. Your Excellency has ordered Su Qing to return to the Thousand Household Division immediately!"

Captain Zhang Ying?

Su Qing had never met this person, but he had heard of him.

Zhang Ying is a sinister and power-hungry person who will do anything to achieve his goals.

He even betrayed his subordinates for the sake of profit.

He has a very bad reputation among the Jinyiwei.

In addition, the night watchman had just shouted to close the doors and windows to prevent theft.

It means it’s already the second update day.

The night watchmen of the Ming Dynasty did not just shout "It's dry, be careful with fire."

They worked five shifts a night.

During the first watch, the call was "The weather is dry, be careful with fire";
During the second watch, the call was "Close doors and windows to prevent theft and burglary";
At the third watch, the cry is "All is well";
When the fourth watch was struck, the cry was "The sky is cold and the earth is frozen";
When the fifth watch is struck, people shout, "Go to bed early and get up early, take care of yourself."

The people of the Ming Dynasty could determine the time by the different calls of the night watchmen.

Closing the doors and windows represents the second watch, which was around ten o'clock in the previous life.

Would a figure of Zhou Paopi's level be summoned for no reason?
But I am the fish on the chopping board, and others are the butchers. This is what Su Qing thought in his heart, but he has no right to refuse?

Soon, he arrived at the Bow and Arrow Department.

"Your Excellency, Su Qing is here!"

"Come in!"

What caught my eye was a fat man with a round face and small eyes, who looked quite funny.

It was Captain Zhang Ying.

"Greetings, Lord Baihu!"

Su Qing immediately bowed his head.

Zhang Ying just glanced at him and said nonchalantly, "From now on, you will take over the position of Song Nanping, the chief flag of Changlefang!"

General flag?

A centurion has only two general flags under his command, and each general flag has fifty people under his command.

And they are different from the Jinyiwei Tiqi.

The chief flag-bearer of the Embroidered Uniform Guard was a genuine seventh-rank official and a truly powerful figure.

“So I became the general flag just like that?
Could it be a pie in the sky?"

Su Qing looked stunned.

Soon, he rejected this idea in his heart.

There are so many people in Shuntian Prefecture that even if a pie falls from the sky, it will not fall on him.

"Besides, who is this Song Nanping?

That's Zhang Ying's brother-in-law, and he and Zhang Ying are definitely in the same boat.

Why would Zhang Ying dismiss Song Nanping and give me the position of general flag?"

Su Qing was no fool. Thinking of Zhang Ying's disgusting tactics, he had already come up with a guess: "If nothing unexpected happened, Zhang Ying ordered Song Nanping to hand over the general flag to me. He must have needed someone to take the blame and block the bomb."

Sure enough, Zhang Ying's next words confirmed everything.

"A few days ago, the flower thief Yimohong harmed the daughter of a doctor in the Ministry of Personnel's Examination and Reward Department. I, the Jinyiwei, received intelligence.

Now, Yimohong is heading north and has entered the desert. It is very likely that he will appear at the Longmen Inn.

You must immediately go to the Dragon Gate Inn and bring the flower thief Yimohong to justice within three months."

A touch of red for a flower thief?

Being able to pick flowers in the capital and still escape?
This shows that this flower thief not only has good martial arts skills, but also has extraordinary strength.

And what is Longmen Inn?
A place where good and bad people mix together, and where bandits gather.

Don't mention it, Su Qing is just a newcomer to the Jinyiwei and has not yet learned martial arts.

Even if a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard were to go to the Longmen Inn, there was a possibility of being overthrown.

This is asking him to die!
“Just why me?
I haven't offended Zhang Ying, so why would he target me like this?"

Although he was puzzled, Su Qing sneered in his heart: "Plotting against me?

In my opinion, you are giving away a big gift package. The general flag can get 10 skill points a day.

Three months, even if I find a place to hide?
Nine hundred skill points are enough to improve my strength to a great extent.

By then..."

Su Qing just left!

Zhang Ying's brother-in-law Song Nanping walked in.

"Brother-in-law, did this kid offend you?"

The daughter of a Langzhong in the Ministry of Personnel's Examination and Reward Department was murdered by a flower thief, which aroused the anger of the civil officials.

The Shenhou Mansion and the Six Gates were busy with the bronze model case and could not spare time. The West Factory and the East Factory were also busy with their own work, so the case fell on the Jinyiwei.

Zhang Ying, a captain of the Archery Department, had two general flags under his command. The other general flag was still in Shandong and had not returned.

The task of catching a touch of red fell on Song Nanping.

Song Nanping doesn't want to die, so he needs to take the blame.

But Song Nanping also had doubts.

There are so many ordinary Tiqi in the Jinyiwei, too many to choose from.

There is a small flag behind Su Qing. Choosing him to block the thunder and die?

Song Nanping was puzzled by his brother-in-law's actions.

Zhang Ying sneered: "His father is Su Yuntian!"

"I see!"

Song Nanping suddenly understood.

……

Buzz!
In a rarely visited cave, Su Qing sat cross-legged.

In an instant, wisps of invisible flames emerged from his flesh and blood.

In less than a breath, it quickly flowed through the whole body.

It is a baptism of fire for the flesh.

It is also a kind of nirvana of the physical body.

It can be said that every moment, every breath, Su Qing's body is improving rapidly.

When the transformation was complete, his gaze fell on the attribute panel.
