Chapter 104: Six Fan Sect Invites Me to Join?

The black horse turned into a blur. Before it had even arrived, the terrifying momentum turned into a sharp sword, cutting the crowd on the street open.

The steed stood up, its front hooves stepping powerfully on the ground, its whole body's muscles flowing like water waves, and long, visible air currents sprayed from its nostrils.

A rider in heavy brocade battle robes, embroidered with silver-threaded cloud eagles, shouted loudly, his highly penetrating voice suppressing the noise of hundreds of people.

Cloud Eagle Tiqi!

The visitor's attire was too distinct.

White brocade battle robes, embroidered with silver threads.

Cloud Eagle Uniform!

As famous as the Embroidered Uniform Guard's Flying Fish Uniform of the Great Shun!

The visitor was a catcher from the Three Judicial Offices!

The Three Judicial Offices might be unfamiliar, but another way of saying it might be more familiar.

"Six Fan Sect!"

The main gate is the most eye-catching feature of house-style architecture, and its form is strictly limited by law and ritual.

No matter how big the prefecture or county, the main gate can only be three bays wide, each bay with two black-lacquered door panels—that is, the Six Fan Sect.

The Six Fan Sect refers to the collective name for the Three Judicial Offices: the Ministry of Justice, the Supreme Court, and the Censorate!

The so-called Three-Hall Joint Trial is the joint trial meeting composed of the heads of these three departments: the Minister of Justice, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, and the Censor-in-Chief.

Therefore, the Three Judicial Offices, which are responsible for all kinds of major cases, arresting criminals, and taking them in for interrogation, naturally have their own exclusive armed group, which is the Cloud Eagle Tiqi.

Every Cloud Eagle Tiqi has the strength of a Galloping Horse!

With such a big background, the township elders who followed Liang Qu out were all startled.

Not to mention a small township, even in the county, one couldn't see such a big figure.

Liang Qu stepped forward quickly and bowed respectfully: "I don't know what business the Tiqi official has with me?"

"You are Liang Qu?" The young Tiqi on the black horse scrutinized him.

"Yes, I am Liang Qu of Yixing City. There is no one in the township with the same name as me. The township elders can testify."

Chen Zhaoan and others nodded repeatedly.

Only then did Liang Qu feel the blood vessels under the horse's skin jumping violently. The horse's heart was beating violently as if it had run hundreds of miles without rest.

Not yet a Galloping Horse, it can only be a Cloud Eagle candidate, who can also wear white battle robes, but there is definitely no Cloud Eagle pattern on the clothes.

The Tiqi before him was definitely a Galloping Horse martial artist, truly extraordinary.

Perhaps the horses they rode were all mixed with spirit monster bloodlines.

Liang Qu was observing the Tiqi, and the Tiqi was also observing Liang Qu, feeling slightly surprised in his heart.

What a fierce aura!

According to the information, Liang Qu is only sixteen this year. At first glance, he seems to have the strength of three barriers approaching four, but if you distinguish carefully, he seems to be at two barriers?

Naturally extraordinary?

Didn't expect a small township to have hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

Zhang Zhiyun felt a slight respect, dismounted, took off his waist token, and showed it to everyone.

"Copper-token catcher of the Three Judicial Offices, Zhang Zhiyun, here to inquire about the Ghost Mother Sect!"

So it was to ask questions. Everyone was enlightened and felt relieved.

"I know everything I know."

Master Yang had said early on that people from the Three Judicial Offices might come to ask questions, so he was prepared in his heart.

"Official, why don't you go in and talk?" Chen Zhaoan pointed to the Council Hall. "I'll have the servants make tea."

"That's fine."

Zhang Zhiyun nodded, entered the Council Hall, found a table, took out a small hard-covered booklet, and unfolded it.

Someone had already sent over a well-ground inkstone. He took out a wolf-hair brush, dipped it in ink, and said.

"Name, place of origin, gender, age."

"Liang Qu, Chaojiang County, Huaiyin Prefecture, Yixing City, male, sixteen years old."

"When did you first encounter the mountain ghost, and what were you doing at the time..."

Zhang Zhiyun asked questions in a businesslike manner.

Then he inquired of the group of township elders, and randomly found a few people from outside to verify, signing his own name at the end of the booklet.

He handed the brush to Liang Qu and asked him to sign.

Liang Qu read it once, confirmed the information was correct, and signed his name.

"Alright, the inquiry is over. Let's talk about the matter between us." Zhang Zhiyun washed the wolf-hair brush clean, placed it aside to wait for it to dry.

"The matter between us?" Liang Qu didn't understand the meaning. "Have I met Zhang Zhiyun official before?"

"Of course not, this is our first meeting."

"Then Zhang official might as well make it clear."

Zhang Zhiyun's eyes were bright: "Any interest in joining the Three Judicial Offices and becoming a Cloud Eagle Tiqi like me?"

"Cloud Eagle Tiqi..." Liang Qu fell into deep thought.

Cloud Eagle Tiqi, Embroidered Uniform Guard, Demon Hunting Division, joining the army—the best places for martial artists to invest themselves.

Not to mention the senior brother, he had risen to the fourth rank in the Western Army, which could be considered a mid-level officer.

Other senior brothers actually had official positions more or less, and the fifth senior sister and sixth senior brother were usually not in Pingyang Town.

But he didn't have any huge needs. If he wanted resources, he could just pick them up in the water.

"That's right, I see you are still a two-barrier martial artist, but your Qi and blood are thick and extraordinary, and you can be accepted as a disciple by Master Yang. A Galloping Horse martial artist is just around the corner. Within a year, you will definitely be able to transfer from a Cloud Eagle candidate to a Cloud Eagle Tiqi!"

Zhang Zhiyun tirelessly promoted.

He certainly wasn't just seeing talent and feeling happy; there was a factor of influence, but it wasn't the big head. More because there was a reward for recommending someone!

If the person recommended passed the assessment, the reward would be at least a mid-level martial art!

If they were transferred to a regular position, or even obtained merit, iron tokens turning into copper tokens, copper tokens turning into silver tokens, rising all the way, he would have subsequent rewards.

In Zhang Zhiyun's view, Liang Qu was absolutely a good seedling, naturally extraordinary, and passing the assessment would be easy.

He could get a mid-level martial art just by moving his lips—where could one find such a good thing?

Several other companions felt that coming to Yixing City to ask questions was a troublesome matter, but they didn't expect him to pick up a leak.

"Master Yang, as a Hunting Tiger martial artist, is indeed famous. Guidance from him will not be wrong, but he is only one person after all, and the things he can teach are limited.

Our Cloud Eagle Tiqi is a huge force. Data, martial arts, secrets, and precious medicines are as vast as smoke. As long as there is merit, everything can be exchanged."

The township elders on the side listened with envy.

Cloud Eagle Tiqi, an official position!

And it's not an ordinary official position; it's a sharp weapon of the country, not afraid of small officials in the county at all, wanting to take people and taking them.

If their nephews could have such great prospects, they would have to hold a three-day flowing banquet and go to the ancestral grave to see if blue smoke was rising.

Liang Qu pondered for a long time and didn't refuse immediately, only saying he had to discuss it with Master Yang.

"Alright." Zhang Zhiyun sighed slightly. He had already felt that Liang Qu's willingness was not high, and it was mostly an excuse.

It shouldn't be. The Three Judicial Offices are such a good place. Liang Qu is a clean person, why would he not want to go?

Not only Zhang Zhiyun, but the group of township elders couldn't understand.

After learning martial arts, shouldn't one go to be an official?

When the time comes, Yixing City will have someone who is a big official, and those minor officials won't dare to be presumptuous, and collecting taxes and kicking bushels will have to be three points lighter.

Liang Qu didn't not want to be an official, but he felt that giving up a blessed land for a library was a bit putting the cart before the horse.

The Jianghuai marshlands are so large that, in terms of his personal capacity, it can be called an inexhaustible blessed land.

If there were a position like a water official, it would be great.

The Great Shun attaches great importance to the rule of water areas. The most important battle in defeating the Great Qian was the Huai Lake Water Battle, which settled the universe in one fell swoop and destroyed the stubborn forces in the south.

In addition, there is the famous River Po Office, and the River General who leads it is a real first-rank official.

Once river demons go ashore and spirit monsters are rampant, as long as it is near the river basin, it is the responsibility of the River Po Office to clean it up.

Being a water official would be the best of both worlds, being able to fish for benefits and stay by the water, but unfortunately, there is no chance. ===== CHAPTER 105 =====
