I, a prison guard in the Heavenly Prison, secretly became invincible thanks to the system.
Chapter 138 Poyang Lake
Ye Kang arrived at the pawnshop and easily met with the guardian of Tianying Town, where he shared his thoughts.
"You want to go to Poyang Lake?" The garrison commander of Tianying Town was very surprised.
Ye Kang nodded and said, "Reporting to you, sir, I dare not lie. I urgently need a precious plant for my cultivation, so I need to go to Poyang Lake and also visit the branch there to learn something."
The Eagle Garrison Commander nodded indifferently: "No problem. You are nominally my subordinate, but you do not have any formal garrison duties. I have no right to stop you. Just be careful and try to get back before the snow falls."
"Why is that?" Ye Kang asked, puzzled.
The Eagle Guardian smiled mysteriously: "It's all because of you. News has come from the capital that Her Highness the Ninth Princess may be arriving in Jinling when the snow falls."
"what!"
Ye Kang was taken aback. Come to think of it, Leng Ruyi had indeed told him when they set off that the Ninth Princess would be visiting Jiangnan.
I just didn't expect it to come so quickly.
Ye Kang could only say helplessly, "I will try my best to get back before the snow."
"I believe you are capable of doing your job. The dangers of Poyang Lake are no less than those of Jinling, especially inside the lake, where the dangers are even greater. It's a pity that the reward for the great achievement hasn't been issued yet, otherwise it would be safer."
"Thank you for your concern, Lord Skyhawk, but danger is also an opportunity, and I will face it myself."
The garrison commander of Tianying Town waved his hand, seemingly unwilling to listen to Ye Kang's nonsense, and let him go directly.
Ye Kang didn't say much. He took the garrison warrant and went home. After saying goodbye to his family, he rode his BMW directly out of the city.
Despite the constant travel, Ye Kang found joy in it.
He was terrified; he had worked so hard to get this position, and he had to make the most of it!
So stable it couldn't be more stable!
That requires absolute power, so that no one, not even the emperor, can take away one's official position.
To achieve this goal, one must continuously grow stronger, until even the world cannot shake one's resolve.
That's right, this is Ye Kang's little dream. He wants to make up for all the regrets of his past life in this one.
This obsession also gave him an unwavering belief in becoming stronger.
The staffing situation is still unstable, and the adults still need to work hard!
……
I've been traveling for three days straight.
Ye Kang finally entered the Poyang area from the Jinling area.
Crossing the Jiangnan Road and entering the Jiangxi Road, further west lies Zhili Xiakou and Poyang Lake.
It is called a great marsh because of the sheer size of this body of water.
Stretching for thousands of miles, the waves cover the clouds, and looking up, it seems as if one can hear the roar of a dragon.
These four lines of nursery rhyme perfectly encapsulate the vastness of the marshland.
Before long, Ye Kang arrived at the edge of the marshland and stood on a dock. He then truly felt the description in the nursery rhyme. It was not an exaggeration at all. This was not a marshland at all, but a vast ocean.
The river stretches as far as the eye can see, with fishing boats and guard posts lining the shore, and various notices posted everywhere, all warning of the water monsters.
"Such a vast swamp, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that a dragon palace could live inside it."
Ye Kang sighed. Just then, a handsome young man beside him laughed and said, "Brother, you're right. The Dragon King of Poyang is deep in the Great Swamp. Who says there's no Dragon Palace?"
Ye Kang looked over in surprise.
The person speaking was standing on the same dock as Ye Kang. Many people lived there, and there were also many talented men and beautiful women who came to visit, so Ye Kang didn't pay any attention to them.
But the young master's initiative to strike up a conversation surprised Ye Kang for a moment.
"Young Master, are you serious about what you say?"
The elegant young man laughed heartily: "How would I know if it's true or false? It's just that this has been passed down for generations. Is this your first time visiting the Poyang Lake?"
"Exactly."
"Then you've come to the right place, brother. The port has recently opened, and there are many fresh and delicious fish. Some of these fish have treasures inside their bodies, which are very beneficial for martial artists. You must not miss them."
"Of course, may I ask your esteemed name, young master?"
"My name is Meng Bo. My father is the garrison commander of Poyang. Greetings."
The young master smiled confidently and politely cupped his hands in greeting.
Ye Kang couldn't help but roll his eyes inwardly.
Who asked you?
You want the whole world to know that your father is the garrison commander of Poyang, don't you?
Ye Kang was speechless for a moment. A garrison commander and a town garrison commander are not the same. A garrison commander is a military region commander with regular troops under his command, similar to the Minister of Works of Mengzhou.
The Qinglin Guards, on the other hand, are high-end combat forces. Since their functions are different, their status is naturally different as well.
Ye Kang said, "My name is Ye Kang. May I ask if Young Master Meng knows Lord Han Ying of the Azure Scale Guard?"
Meng Bo was surprised to hear this.
"You know Lord Han? You're not perhaps a member of the Azure Scale Guard!"
Ye Kang shook his head: "No, they're just acquaintances."
Meng Bo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I see. Lady Han Ying is currently investigating several river pirates in the deep waters. My father has also sent a boat to assist, so he knows some of the details. I'm afraid it will be a while before we can meet Lord Ye."
Ye Kang nodded. That was really unfortunate, but it didn't matter. Since Han Ying wasn't here, they would deal with the man-eating monster first.
He asked, "Young Master Meng, with your high position, you must know about the Snow-Backed Wolf, right?"
Sure enough, Meng Bo was startled again.
"Who are you?! How do you know so much?!"
He took two steps back, and at the same time, two plainclothes guards came over, looking at Ye Kang warily.
Both of them were at the sixth rank of cultivation, yet they were willing to serve as Meng Bo's bodyguards. Indeed, the children of officials are different.
Ye Kang smiled and said, "Young master, please don't misunderstand. I come from Jinling as a proud masked man. I've come specifically to visit an old friend and, incidentally, to deal with the Snowback Wolf."
Ye Kang took out his mask and put it on, and the three people opposite him were all stunned.
Meng Bo asked in confusion, "A masked man from Jinling, here to slay the demon from Poyang?"
Ye Kang became serious: "That's not right! The masked man only cares about contribution points, not the region. Moreover, we martial artists should work for the benefit of the people. When we encounter demons, how can we not kill them?"
Meng Bo was immediately fooled by Ye Kang. In his eyes, Ye Kang's figure seemed to grow taller and shine brighter.
"What a kind masked man to the common people! Very well, I've decided, I'll go with you to slay the demon!"
Upon hearing this, the two guards became anxious.
"Young Master, you mustn't!"
"The Snowback Wolf is elusive and unpredictable; the two of us might not be able to protect the young master and ensure his safe escape!"
Meng Bo thought about it and realized that it made sense, but he was immediately conflicted.
After a moment, he sighed and said, "In that case, I'm afraid I can't go with you. But don't worry, brother, my father is a garrison commander. There's nothing I can't get my hands on. Why don't you have a meal with me on a nearby ship? I'll send someone to bring you the case files."
Meng Bo's words were firm and sincere, which amazed Ye Kang.
The son of the garrison commander of Poyang is surprisingly not a spoiled brat. How interesting!
When someone invited him to dinner, he naturally didn't refuse, and the two of them found the best luxury boat nearby.
Meng Bo waved his hand and threw out two silver ingots.
"A whole fish feast! The freshest of all!"
