Set up a funeral service team in a foreign land
Chapter 132 Fight for the day and night; blameless
Li Qing stretched her body so much that her bones made a crackling sound, and then she yawned with her hands covering her mouth. "I'm going back. Today is my day off, so it's a good time to sleep. How about you, junior sister?"
Xi Sui'an shrugged: "Professor Ilowen assigned me homework, so of course I have to do it."
Li raised her eyebrows slightly and chuckled, "Then you can go on your way. I won't see you off." Tsk tsk, poor kid.
Xi Sui'an watched Li Qing humming a strange and cheerful little tune as she wandered towards her office. She murmured, "It seems that the dean attaches great importance to Li Qing..." She didn't know what position Li Qing held in the academy.
She thought as she walked and continued with her previous itinerary.
Li in the distance tilted her head slightly, glanced at Xi Sui'an's tall back, and the melody she hummed became more cheerful.
"Hey, Minister! You're finally back!"
In front of the cottage surrounded by lush flowers and plants, Kellyd, a man with green hair, threw the showerhead in his hand aside when he saw Li Qing and made a hugging gesture towards Li Qing.
Li glanced at the plants in front of the house. Their branches and leaves were stretched out in the sun, and they looked very comfortable. She nodded with satisfaction and said, "There's no need for me to think so."
"Minister, something happened." Kelly said in a low voice, suppressing his smile.
"What's the matter?" Li Qing's expression remained unchanged.
Kelly said seriously: "Serren Argerich is missing."
Li paused in unbuttoning her cuffs, her eyes moved slightly: "Continue."
"The Audit Department is investigating now. Our External Relations Department is also providing them with information. The Agrich family is also investigating. It is said that Seren disappeared on the way back."
"Agrich asked an astrologer to investigate, but still found no trace."
Li Qing touched her chin: "The old man was hesitant to speak just now, it turns out it was because of this matter. Astrologers are useless, tut, it's not simple, let's cooperate with Ye Qiusheng to find Seren."
Kellyd scratched his cheek and said, "Okay, Minister, but what if..." What if Seren Agrihi gets hurt?
Li Qingyu clasped her hands in front of her chest and said softly, "I will pray for him. I hope he will have a good life."
"..." Kellyd twitched his lips and wiped his forehead silently.
Li sighed: "It's not time to go to bed yet." He buttoned his sleeves back up and straightened his shirt.
"Kelide, contact the merchants in the realm and ask if they are willing to sponsor an event."
"Ah?" Kelly looked up blankly.
Li Qing winked at him and put her index finger to her lips: "Do it quietly, don't let the inspection department know."
If Ye Qiu Sheng knew that he was doing business with the merchants in the realm in private, he would be in big trouble.
Kelly looked at his minister in silence for a few seconds. What should he do if his boss doesn't abide by the law?
Either report it for the greater good, or go along with it.
"Minister, how about contacting the Freedom?" He sighed after a few seconds.
Li Qing was startled when she heard this and exclaimed, "You reminded me. I almost forgot that there is a doctor on the Liberty in the department!"
Kelly nearly jumped up when he heard this: "The doctor of the Liberty is with us?" How come he didn't know? !
Ignoring the shocked and resentful looks of her own team members, Li Qing took out the communicator and flipped through it, then was stunned.
"Well, Professor Qingshu was injured in a fight with Professor Peregrine and is in the medical room...Kelide, let's go and visit our dear teacher!" It just happened to be on the way.
Kelly held his forehead helplessly and sighed: "Okay, Minister."
Not returning to the city.
Xi Sui'an headed towards the southeast corner of the city, where the Order Department was located.
Occasionally, she would see some law enforcers in green cloaks patrolling the road. On the bluestone streets, all kinds of alien races walked by. There were many shops around, and the aroma of food made her stomach growl instantly.
Xi Sui'an stopped in front of a roadside stall. She looked at the big round pancakes on the stall, and then looked at the boss. The boss was middle-aged and looked like a human, but the pointed rabbit ears on his head were very distinct.
He looked at Xi Sui'an for a moment and said with a smile: "What do you want to eat?"
"A bowl of mica porridge and two rice cakes, thank you." She glanced at the middle-aged man's exposed big front teeth and said politely.
"Haha, you humans all like to eat this way. The dean also likes to eat this way." The boss smiled and presented her with something to eat.
The mica porridge was a snowy color, and it looked like a bowl of plain white porridge, but the pancake was quite thick. She raised her eyebrows. Did the dean not like the canteen food either?
The boss said with a smile: "The mica porridge uses snow rice and full moon pure water, and the cakes use paper mulberry fruit powder. The ingredients are very good. I learned it from you humans."
Xi Sui'an took a bite of the biscuit thoughtfully. It was fragrant and refreshing. She took another bite: "Xue Mi, you don't know, the full moon pure dew seems to be the most commonly used auxiliary material in the medicine refining department, and the Zhichu fruit seems to be a second or third level medicinal material..."
and many more!
She paused and said, "Boss, how much is this?"
"It's not expensive. Since you're a junior, nine hundred crystal coins will be enough." The boss waved his hand.
"..."
Xi Sui'an's eyes twitched slightly, and for a moment she didn't know whether she was shocked by the breakfast that cost 900 yuan in human currency, or was stunned by the boss calling her "schoolmate".
She blinked her eyes: "Are you also a graduate of Damocles?" The graduates were squatting outside the college selling pancakes, would the dean come to punch in?
Xi Sui'an was silent for a moment. She might have had some misunderstandings about Damocles' positioning before. It turns out... he is so down-to-earth.
The boss smiled and said, "Power is not an absolute pursuit. Not every graduate has to leave behind a wonderful legend in a foreign land. Didn't Dean Ren also say that you should just follow your own path?"
"Each race has its own way of life. The Forest Deer like to roam around, the Flame Bird likes to fan the flames, the Medicine Rabbit likes peace and tranquility, and you humans... only care about the day."
The boss thought about it and made a comment.
Xi Sui'an was stunned: "Are you from the history department?"
"No, I'm from the alchemy department." The boss smiled and waved his hands, then greeted the next customer with a smile.
Xi Sui'an continued to eat biscuits and drink porridge. She felt a warm feeling in her stomach. The warm current melted into her flesh and blood, and she felt that she was in much better condition.
"Nine hundred is quite worth it."
Xi Sui'an stirred the mica porridge and laughed happily to a low voice.
"We must seize every moment... because moments like these are precious."
——————————————————————————————
Xi Sui'an's mood suddenly became much more relaxed. She happily finished her meal, said goodbye to the boss and continued walking towards the Order Department.
On the way, he was in a good mood and said, "This is the food that people should eat. Let's eat outside in the future!" Most of the dishes in the cafeteria are from foreign races, and there are not many that suit his taste.
"By the way, how about trying to trick Zhong Heng into cooking? The career prospects of a pharmacist shouldn't be so narrow." She whispered.
The system in the sea of souls popped up its head and asked faintly, "Do you dare to eat what Zhong Heng made?"
"..."Xi Sui'an paused, it seemed so.
When she arrived at the Order Department, a group of blue-robed law enforcers were standing at the door, listening in on the excitement inside.
"Yan Wujiu, you are a guy who takes advantage of others' misfortune. And you want five million crystal coins from me?!" The voice was gritting teeth.
"Dear, I gave you a discount, really." The calm middle-aged voice comforted, "I really didn't cheat you. Besides, even if I cheated you, I can't cheat you as much as an alchemist."
The young voice suddenly exploded: "Who are you talking about?"
Xi Sui'an carefully distinguished the voice for a moment and vaguely felt that the young voice was a little familiar. She tilted her head and said, "Is it... Vega?"
She thought about it and realized that Vega had been defeated and would not return to the city, so now was not the time to go in and disturb him, so she folded her arms and followed the enforcer to eat melon.
The middle-aged voices all nodded loudly: "Tsk, how come you are more difficult to deal with than your teacher? Here, here, here, you choose the place yourself!"
"Hmph, don't use your seniority to put pressure on me. I am also the lord of a city!" Vega said angrily.
Yan Wujiu sighed, "Alright, Vega, I don't want your teacher to come to my dreams in the middle of the night and tell you that I bullied you. Just look for yourself, the maximum discount is 20%, no more than that!"
Vega was silent for a while, then said awkwardly, "A 20% discount is fine."
The law enforcer on the side whispered in his ear: "Chief, is he offering a 20% discount this time or is he raising the price first and then offering a discount?"
"I don't know, he didn't say."
……
When Xi Sui'an heard this, he fell silent.
She was a little skeptical about the authenticity of the 20% discount on the ten-year fine that Professor Qingshu had prepaid.
"Huh? Who are you and why are you here at the Order Department?" A law enforcer noticed her and asked in confusion.
Xi Sui'an touched his nose and coughed: "I am Damocles' student, and my teacher asked me to come and see Chief Yan."
"Ah, a student of the academy." The law enforcer waved at her as if it was commonplace: "Then follow me in."
The law enforcer led Xi Sui'an into the house.
"Here, that's it. No changes." When Xi Sui'an entered the room, he saw Vega, with his fox ears slightly moving, pointing at the map calmly.
"Okay, this four million, 20% off to 3.2 million." The middle-aged man with sharp eyebrows raised his chin and threw him a booklet, "Go ahead, go ahead. By the way, I'll also give you a copy of the detailed rules of the City of No Return. Don't mess around in the City of No Return."
"It's really troublesome, I get it." Vega responded, rubbing his forehead.
"Chief, a student from the academy is looking for you." Seeing that the matter had come to an end, the law enforcer asked for instructions.
Yan Wujiu raised his eyebrows and looked at Xi Sui'an who was behind the law enforcer.
Xi Sui'an stepped forward and saluted: "Xi Sui'an greets Chief Yan."
"Xi Sui'an?" Vega, who was about to leave, felt a little familiar with the name. His steps paused for a moment and he suddenly turned his head to look at Xi Sui'an.
She looked unfamiliar to me, but that was normal since she had concealed her identity before.
Xi Sui'an tilted his head and greeted politely: "Long time no see, Lord Vega."
"Long time no see." Vega's delicate face was full of complex expressions.
Xi Sui'an looked at the other person, who was wearing a black cloak that made his lips and teeth look white, and he looked pale, and it seemed that he had indeed suffered some trauma.
Vega sighed: "It seems that we will have many opportunities to interact in the future."
Xi Sui'an smiled and said, "It's my honor."
Vega glanced at Yan Wujiu, then at Xi Sui'an: "You can come and sit with me later." He turned and left the Order Department.
Xi Sui'an looked at Vega's back in silence for a while.
"This kid bought a small piece of land from me and plans to open a tavern. You can go and support him later." Yan Wujiu said with a smile as he rolled up the map.
Xi Sui'an couldn't help but be curious: "Are you familiar with Lord Vega?"
"I'm not familiar with him." He waved his hand. "I have nothing to do with him. I just met the old mayor of Aurora City a few times when I was traveling."
"Let's go, little guy." Yan Wujiu looked at Xi Sui'an, "Yilowen told me that you are pretty good, now come with me to fight and see."
Xi Sui'an was stunned. He just came up and beat her? Was he trying to test her?
She followed the tall figure in front of her, thought for a moment and asked, "Use all means?"
"Everything except your summoning technique." Yan Wujiu said without turning his head.
Xi Sui'an nodded thoughtfully: "Okay."
She followed Yan Wujiu into the depths of the Order Department, passed through a stone wall, and saw a huge underground fighting arena with stone pillars several feet high standing and countless strange beasts carved on the center floor.
Xi Sui'an raised his eyebrows. Damocles has a sky duel arena and the Order Department has an underground fighting arena. It's quite interesting.
Yan Wujiu faced Xi Sui'an, his eyes smiling, his temples frosted with wind and frost showing some fine lines. He said with a smile: "I will use 30% of my strength, come, let you enjoy the treatment that Yi Luowen received in the past."
Xi Sui'an paused slightly as he held his Yanling knife. Did Yi Luowen also get caught in this man's rain in the past?
She drew her sword silently, and the original power condensed into a Dao light that instantly attacked. Yan Wujiu shattered it with his backhand. After a short pause, Xi Sui'an came closer and chopped down in mid-air with the Yanling sword.
"Good speed." Yan Wujiu said calmly, holding the Yanling knife in one hand.
Xi Sui'an immediately turned over and kicked the opponent's shoulder, and the original power poured out. Yan Wujiu turned sideways, and a long spear appeared in his hand. The sharp tip of the spear almost cut Xi Sui'an's neck.
She took a few steps back to avoid the fatal blow, then collided with the halberd that was thrust at her. Sparks flew, and she and Yan Wujiu looked at each other, as if judging each other.
The figures were in disorder, the confrontation was as fast as the wind, and the fighting field was filled with the sound of swords.
"My body movements are average." Yan Wujiu said calmly.
A tremendous force was transmitted from the tip of the halberd. Xi Sui'an moved his left hand slightly, turned the Forbidden Spirit Pistol in his hand, and shot a bullet with exquisite and intricate patterns at him.
Yan Wujiu raised his hand and used the power of the origin to forcibly grasp the bullet in his hand. He took a look at it and suddenly sighed: "It is the magic-forbidden bullet of the alchemical gear."
It's a pity that the boss is dead. Let's make it a collection.
Yan Wujiu thought for a moment, then took the bullet away.
Xi Sui'an twitched his lips when he saw this. This Chief Yan had a very unique personality.
She quickly distanced herself from him, and another bullet was fired. Yan Wujiu shook his head and said, "If it doesn't work once, try again."
Xi Sui'an smiled but said nothing.
Yan Wujiu's golden origin controlled the bullet, and the indigo pattern around the bullet suddenly lit up, revealing a hint of danger.
He was slightly startled and cursed inwardly: "Scheming alchemist!"
"boom!!"
The golden and blue lights suddenly lit up, a heat wave swept across the fighting arena, and an explosion sounded.
ground.
"Huh?" The law enforcers of the Order Department looked down at the ground. "Is this an earthquake?"
A law enforcer pricked up his ears and listened for a while: "No way, it seems like something exploded, the sound is a bit muffled..."
The other one looked in a certain direction and thought: "It seems like a fighting arena. It seems that the chief is testing students. The fight is quite fierce."
"This human race has great potential." The law enforcer who was watching the fun said seriously, stroking his chin.
