Chapter 4 Meritorious Service
As soon as he saw Zheng Tianyou arriving, Wang Xiang sat up lazily.
It's obviously just a simple action, but it makes people feel frightened.
If you have ever been to a zoo and seen a tiger up close, you will know that even if it yawns at you through the iron fence, such a huge creature will make you feel terrified.
And this also made Zheng Tianyou's eyelids tremble, as if the person in front of him was actually a beast wearing human skin!
The feeling of being burned by fire is even closer!
Zheng Tianyou almost couldn't help but take a step back, otherwise his whole body would be burned by the flames.
Wang Xiang seemed to notice Zheng Tianyou's strangeness, smiled slightly, and said hello: "Mr. Zheng is here!"
As he opened his mouth, the astonishing heat radiation and awe-inspiring momentum around him subsided.
In the blink of an eye, he seemed to have become an ordinary person!
Seeing such a scene, Zheng Tianyou asked with some surprise: "Colonel, have you already reached the level of strength? The energy and blood in your body can be sent and received in your heart."
Wang Xiang just smiled and didn't answer, and just said to Zheng Tianyou: "Mr. Zheng, please sit down!
I never thought that Mr. Zheng, who is clearly a scholar, would have accumulated over a hundred meritorious deeds in less than three years. It’s really amazing!”
The reason why he is so polite to Zheng Tianyou and calls Zheng Tianyou Mr. Zheng is because Zheng Tianyou is also the accountant of Beicheng Jingyesi!
Zheng Tianyou was rescued by Wang Jian and brought back to Beicheng Jingyesi.
But at that time, Zheng Tianyou was just a time traveler with no power, and Jingyesi couldn't do anything when he came to this place where there were warriors everywhere.
In this classical world, even the waiters in the shop need local people with clean family backgrounds, and they also need a guarantor to act as guarantee. Zheng Tianyou can't find any job, and he is afraid that he will only starve to death!
Fortunately, as a highly educated time traveler, Zheng Tianyou looks different from the common people in this world.
It is easy for people to think that he is a child of a noble family, a scholar, etc.
Therefore, Wang Xiang arranged to work in the accounting room!
It just so happened that the accountant of Jingyesi in Beicheng had just become seriously ill and was temporarily vacant.
At that time, Beicheng Jingyesi's accounts were very confusing, and they were still keeping accounts using a running account.
The financial situation is even more chaotic, and the income and expenditure are in a mess.
After Zheng Tianyou arrived at the accounting room, he counted the accounts, redesigned the accounting forms, and a relatively complete financial system, turning around the financial chaos of Beicheng Jingyesi in one fell swoop.
Wang Xiang was shocked by this and thought that even if Zheng Tianyou passed the imperial examination and entered the imperial court, he would be a great talent who could be the minister of the Ministry of Etiquette. Therefore, he treated Zheng Tianyou with courtesy!
The property work of Beicheng Jingyesi is still very simple for a time traveler like Zheng Tianyou.
Therefore, he began to have time to practice martial arts, and slowly accumulated merits, which is where he is today.
At this moment, Zheng Tianyou said to Wang Xiang with great gratitude: "Thank you very much, Captain, for giving me the Fire Dragon Pill method, so that I can be where I am today."
Wang Xiang waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "The only thing I gave you is the first level of the Fire Dragon Pill. Do not use it.
Don't use Qianlong. At most, it can only strengthen the essence and nourish the essence.
The fact that you have been able to practice till now is because of your own persistence!"
After a pause, he smiled and said: "You have accumulated so many merits, so you plan to go to Xingyang Mansion to exchange for the second level of the Fire Dragon Pill, right?"
Zheng Tianyou said: "Yes!"
He knew in his heart that the hidden dragon was not as simple as what Wang Xiang said.
He was originally a working dog who was in sub-healthy condition and had a lot of minor ailments. He was able to practice martial arts in two or three years, and his strength reached 650 kilograms. This was the first level of the Fire Dragon Pill.
Don’t use the credit of Qianlong!
After all, he was already old when he practiced martial arts, and martial artists in this world all started training when they were in their teens, and it took more than ten years of hard training to reach a strength of five to six hundred!
But Zheng Tianyou started practicing martial arts in his twenties and thirties, and reached a strength of 650 kilograms in less than three years.
And all of this is the result of Qianlong Wuyong!
That’s why Zheng Tianyou hopes to redeem the second level of Fire Dragon Pill!
In this case, Wang Xiang, how about I give you ten days of leave? Is it enough for you to rush back from Xingyang Mansion?"
Zheng Tianyou looked grateful: "That's enough! That's enough! Thank you, Captain!"
He said goodbye to Wang Xiang, found his subordinates Lu Yang and Zhang Daya, gave some instructions, then borrowed a horse from Si Li and rushed towards Xingyang Mansion.
Wanling County is only over a hundred miles away from Xingyang Mansion. If you hurry up, you can enter the city before dark.
Before I traveled through time, I always thought that a BMW could travel a thousand miles a day or eight hundred miles a night.
However, when I really go back to ancient times, I know that these horses are very pampered animals.
If you really want to beat the horse and run wildly, don't run for eight hundred miles. Even if you run for eighty miles, the horse will be exhausted to death!
In fact, these horses must be carefully taken care of, cannot be ridden for too long, and must eat protein-rich feed, such as bean cakes, eggs, etc.
Raising a horse costs a lot of money, more expensive than buying a car in the previous life.
In addition, Zheng Tianyou did not go to Xingyang Mansion too many times and was not familiar with the roads, which delayed some distance.
After such a delay, Zheng Tianyou was unable to arrive at Xingyang Mansion before dark.
Seeing that it was already dusk, Zheng Tianyou was still at least twenty or thirty miles away from Xingyang Mansion.
He didn't dare to travel at night because the world was full of monsters and monsters when it got dark.
And more importantly, after dark, even if he rushed to Xingyang Mansion and the city gate was closed, he would not be able to enter.
Fortunately, Zheng Tianyou had visited Xingyang Mansion before, and after pondering for a while, he remembered that there was a village five or six miles ahead, where he should be able to stay and rest.
At that moment, he rushed towards the village in his memory.
In this classical era, the population is really not as dense as the modern world in the previous life.
Even the villages are sparse and you have to walk a long way to find one.
You must find a place to stay in time before it gets dark.
Fortunately, Zheng Tianyou remembered that there was a village called Dawang Village nearby, so he finally arrived at this village before dark.
However, as soon as he approached the village, he felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere.
Two men with hunting forks came over and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing in our village?"
Zheng Tianyou felt a slight shiver in his heart. Dawang Village is not far from the official road, and travelers who delay their journey occasionally stay overnight, so they generally are not so wary of outsiders.
Unless something happened in this village!
He dismounted and cupped his fists and said: "Two eldest brothers have invited me. I am a martial artist from Wanling Jingyesi. I went to Xingyang Mansion for business. I missed Sutou and wanted to come to Dawang Village to stay overnight..."
Before he could finish his words, the two strong men already looked happy: "Are you from Jingyesi?"
Zheng Tianyou: "Exactly!"
A strong man said: "That's great! There is a monster in our village, and everyone in Wang Laowu's family is bewitched by the monster.
We had no choice but to find someone from Jingyesi to eliminate the demon, but no one came after waiting for several days!
Chapter completed!
