In the Qian family's mansion, there is always a carriage specially prepared for Ji Yuan, so that he can use it whenever necessary.
At this time, he took Xia Dong in a carriage and came directly to the gate of Mingxinxuan.
Before the two of them showed up, a young shopkeeper and two maids quickly walked outside the carriage and were waiting.
This was the first time he had enjoyed such treatment when he was alone. Although he had done so before, most of them came for Qian Nishang.
"Hey, isn't this our special offering? How come you have time to come out of the quiet room?"
As soon as he came to an elegant room, Qian Nishang was sitting behind a small mountain-like account book, and he couldn't help but make a joke.
There was a clearly audible hint of ridicule in his words.
There is also a bit of vague resentment.
After hearing this, Ji Yuan's expression remained normal. It was true that he was a special-class worshiper, but he was not an accountant. Besides, the signed contract did not include any clauses about helping to handle Ming Xinxuan's internal affairs.
Seeing him sitting on the chair without saying a word and starting to drink cup after cup of spiritual tea, Qian Nichang immediately glared at him angrily.
"Take it!"
She threw out a mountain bag, pretending to be disgusted.
Ji Yuan didn't care about this. After taking the Shanhe bag, he counted it carefully.
It's not that he doesn't trust Qian Nishang, but the matter of counting property is second only to practice in his eyes.
After a while, he put away the mountain bag with satisfaction. The smile in his eyes almost overflowed. He seemed to have never expected that the profit from this trip would be so high.
Not to mention the value of a mountain and river bag itself, the mountains of various spiritual materials in it are already of staggering value, not to mention the gold and silver notes that are several inches thick.
In addition, there are seven magical artifacts that are in extremely good condition. Taking out any one of them is enough to make the monks in the first and second realms rush to grab it. Even some monks in the third realm will probably be jealous for a while.
According to Ji Yuan's estimation, the contents of this mountain and river bag must be worth at least two million taels of silver, and this is only a small part of the wealth accumulated by the Li family over two to three hundred years.
He clapped his hands with satisfaction, and then explained the purpose of his visit to Qian Nishang, who immediately called a shopkeeper to replace the things he took out with what he needed.
In less than half a stick of incense, Ji Yuan's two goals of this trip were completed.
"Be careful these days. There are many demon monks in the city."
After the shopkeeper left, Qian Nichang finally spoke.
Just like the human race is innately hostile to aliens, most of the monster races in the world also look down on the human race. In addition, the hatred between the two sides has accumulated for countless years, and it will be extremely difficult to live in peace if they get together.
Moreover, most of the demon clan have violent tempers, and there are not a few who will fight if they disagree with each other. However, although these guys are few in number, they are extremely talented. The number of strong ones is almost the same as that of the human race.
In the Great Chongqing Dynasty, there were nine great demons who not only had reached the level of great power, but also had extremely strong killing power. More or less, they all had the record of killing fellow monks on their own.
On the other hand, most of the powerful monks of the human race have no record of killing their fellow warriors.
"I've already heard Xia Dong say it."
Ji Yuan nodded, his expression becoming more solemn.
On the way here, the accompanying girl mentioned that there were two bloodlines of demon kings in the city at this moment. They usually acted unscrupulously, and because of their status as demon kings, they did not take most of the human race into consideration.
I am afraid that only great monks who have formed a golden elixir can suppress their arrogance.
It is said that these two geniuses of the demon clan usually attack in public if they disagree with each other, and their attacks are often very serious, often causing harm to people's lives, and even innocent people are often implicated.
However, with the support of the Demon King, as long as they don't go too far, the court can usually only turn a blind eye, for fear of triggering a war between the human race and the demon race within the territory.
Those demon kings who ostensibly submitted to the imperial court had their own evil intentions and were eager to stir up trouble and then kill them to make rivers of blood flow and their lives to be devastated.
As for the reason, it is not something that monks like them who are still in the third level of Foundation Establishment can understand and speculate.
"By the way, the head of the Mingjian Department wants to see you."

Chapter 147 Thank you
Qian Nishang seemed to have thought of something, took out a name card and handed it to Xia Dong.
Hearing this, the figure of Xu Lin immediately appeared in Ji Yuan's mind. He said that he had been in the county for a while, but he never had the chance to meet him. The other party still owed him a favor.
This famous post was carved from topaz. Apart from the exquisite pattern, there were only three large characters with flying dragons and phoenixes - Wang Zhenyuan.
With just a name, Ji Yuan seemed to see endless sword lights rising and falling, and a horizontal sword pointed directly at the sky.
The strange image in front of him flashed away, and the jade tablet in his hand became ordinary. There was no aura contained in it, and there was no awe-inspiring Qi. There was nothing surprising except for its exquisiteness.
"With this name card, you can come to see the boss at any time."
Qian Nichang glanced at him, then lowered her head and continued to deal with the mountain of ledgers in front of her.
The meaning is obvious. It is another way of issuing an order to expel guests.
Ji Yuan smiled awkwardly, said goodbye, and then got up and left with Xia Dong, riding a carriage to Mingjian Division.
Unlike the Sheriff's Mansion, which is located in the center of the county, the place where Mingjian Si sits is relatively remote. There are few people living around it, and most of them are chambers of commerce and warehouses.
It took about half an hour for the carriage to arrive outside the Mingjian Department. However, the distance was still more than ten feet, and the horses pulling the carriage were unwilling to take another step forward.
Helpless, Ji Yuan and Xia Dong could only walk towards the big house in the distance.
But as they got closer, a pressure suddenly appeared on the two of them, as if what they were facing was not a court office, but an ancient beast with its bloody mouth open.
There is no one guarding the gate of the huge Mingjian Department. The door is even wide open, so there is no fear of anyone intruding.
But think about it, as the sharpest sword in the Chongqing Dynasty, Mingjiansi's strength is enough to rank among the top five in the entire violent organization of the imperial court. Even the nearby countries are frightened by it.
Even if it is just the yamen of a county, it can be called a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. How can an ordinary young man dare to enter and cause trouble?
Not to mention that the yamen of Mingjian Division has a chief who is ranked among the top five in Lingyang Mansion with killing power. Even a great monk who has formed a golden elixir does not dare to break into it at will.
"Go right in?"
Ji Yuan stood in front of the door, hesitated for a moment, and did not dare to walk in directly.
Hearing this, Xia Dong behind him rolled his eyes. She had never been to such a place, so how did she know whether she could go in directly?
However, a normal person would come to the Mingjian Division in a good manner. Even if there is really an injustice, he should go to the county magistrate's office or the county government office.
Ji Yuan thought for a while, then took out the yellow jade name tag, took a deep breath, and then carefully stepped through the door in front of him.
Until he walked a certain distance, he still couldn't help but worry whether he would be killed by a sudden sword light.
"Who are you?"
Just at this time, someone walked out of the side hall and looked at Ji Yuan in the courtyard with doubts.
He was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked back, only to see Xia Dong, who was supposed to be following him, standing outside the gate with an apologetic smile on his face, not moving even half a step.
Seeing this, Ji Yuan's face immediately darkened and he waited to settle matters with the other party when he went back.
"Lingyu, a poor Taoist, comes here specially to pay a visit, bearing the name of the head of the Mingjian Department."
He first made a bow and then showed the name card in his hand.
Although the two sides were separated by several feet, the other party was also a martial artist in the middle to late stage of the Flesh Realm, so he could naturally see the appearance of the jade token clearly.
His expression immediately straightened up, he cupped his hands from a distance, and then said loudly: "Just walk along this path, and at the end is where the Master lives."
This person told Ji Yuan that as long as he held his name card along the way, no one would stop him.
After giving some instructions, he walked to the other side of the courtyard on his own, holding a pile of thick official documents in his arms and looking a bit hurried.
"Hurry up and catch up!"
Ji Yuan turned around and wanted to shout loudly, but when he thought of where he was, he couldn't help but lower his voice (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 147 Thank you
sound.
Then he turned around angrily and walked toward the depths of Mingjian Si Yamen along the path pointed out by the previous person.
Just after taking a few steps, there were footsteps behind him, and one or two Xia Dong chuckled.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the depths of the Yamen and stopped in front of a courtyard gate. Just as they were thinking about how to enter, a voice suddenly rang in their ears.
"come in."
He softly called "Excuse me" and led Xia Dong across the courtyard gate in front of him and came to a separate courtyard.
This place does not look like the residence of a master of Mingjian Division with extraordinary cultivation and extraordinary killing power, but rather like the home of an ordinary person. Apart from two or three huts, there is only a peach tree and a few wooden tables in the courtyard.
wooden chair.
On the other hand, in the empty courtyard, there were four or five weapon racks, including swords, guns, clubs, axes, axes, swords and halberds.
"May I ask, Mr. Mingjian Division Chief, if you live here?"
After looking around, Ji Yuan cast his eyes on a young man and quickly stepped forward and asked respectfully.
The other person looked young, maybe sixteen or seventeen years old, and was only about five feet tall, barely reaching the chest of an adult.
He has a delicate face, red lips and white teeth, long hair tied casually behind his head, a white robe, and a simple horizontal knife hanging from his waist. At first glance, he looks quite extraordinary.
"I am Wang Zhenyuan, Mingjian Division."
The young man looked with a smile, and there was often a flash of knife in his eyes.
Ji Yuan was stunned on the spot. He didn't expect that the head of the Mingjian Division of Luoxia County, who was famous for his fierce reputation and had the most killing power in any province, actually looked like a handsome young man!
"I am a poor man, Lingyu, I have met the Master!"
After being stunned for a while, he quickly bowed as a salute.
Behind him, Xia Dong also quickly put away the embarrassment on his face and respectfully made a Wan Fu.
"I know what doubts you have in your mind."
Wang Zhenyuan, the head of the Mingjian Department, glanced at the application on his face, and said with a helpless smile: "When I was young, I was very high-spirited, and relying on my pretty good talent, I made great progress all the way."
"In the end, when I reacted, it was already too late. Because the realm was too high, my appearance could only remain the same as when I made the breakthrough, and it would be difficult to change again."
For this matter, he had been troubled for a long time, read countless classics, and tried various methods, but all of them were useless.
Human appearance is born from parents and given by heaven and earth. If you are a mortal, you still have the opportunity to change it, but as your cultivation becomes more advanced, it becomes more difficult to change your appearance.
With Wang Zhenyuan's current state, if he wanted to change his appearance, he would have to lose all his cultivation, or he would need to be reincarnated.
Unless one day in the future, I can prove the Tao through martial arts and rank among the immortals.
"There are countless wonderful objects in the world, and there must be a treasure that can change your appearance."
Ji Yuan agreed with a slight embarrassment.
"Okay, I didn't call you here to talk about my appearance."
Wang Zhenyuan glared angrily and threw out an jade ring.
He said casually: "Although this ring is just a magic weapon, it has the miraculous effect of concentration. There is a large space inside it. It is a rare and good object."
"This time, because of your suggestion, Mingjian Division really made a fortune, so this can be regarded as a thank you."
Ji Yuan pulled Jade's finger and subconsciously injected essence into it. Then he was stunned on the spot and could not recover for a long time.
