Chapter 42.

After Sheriff Xie finished his sentence, the entire room fell silent.

He couldn’t wait to slap himself twice.

How could one say such words?

Isn’t this forcing someone to commit a crime?

No one else wanted to in the first place, but when you say it like that, doesn’t it become a reminder?

In fact, Sheriff Xie thought so.

After all, the reason why the mysterious expert was called the word mysterious was because he did not want to expose his identity.

But now that its identity was also exposed, there were only two people in the entire venue, itself and Zhang Si Xian.

If the two of them were silenced, the Mysterious Master would become mysterious again.

Zhang Si Xian wiped a handful of blood from the corner of his mouth.

He had vomited a bit too much blood today.

“Zhou An, don’t worry, the two of us don’t have any malicious intent and won’t do anything to you, there are many experts in this world, it’s not possible that every expert that comes out will be targeted by someone else.”

He felt that he still had to say a few words.

He couldn’t fathom it ah!

Just like he couldn’t fathom that Zhou An was using a pot against his enemy.

Zhou An spoke in a flat tone, slowly stepping with his hands behind his back, coming before Zhang Si Xian and Sheriff Xie.

“Why did I commit a crime?”

When these words came out, Zhang Si County and the two men looked at each other in disbelief.

Yes, why would someone commit a crime?

All because that scene just now was just too wild, so they tagged along.

Zhou An asked, “But this matter right, you guys can’t give me the word.”

In fact, before he came, Zhou An had already anticipated this situation.

He had to kill the Beast Sect Master, and if the Beast Sect Master ran away, there would be endless consequences.

The cost of it, then, would inevitably be exposing himself.

It didn’t really matter.

Through this recent period of observation, he realized that the Great Chu Kingdom’s Zhen Gui Si, targeting the scattered experts in the Jianghu, did not report much malice.

As long as they didn’t mess things up, they could play any way they wanted.

And those who did, would definitely be targeted.

Zhou An wouldn’t mess things up, he just wanted to quietly liver proficiency.

He had no direct conflict with the Town Guile Division.

“That’s for sure, we respect the freedom of every Jianghu person.” Zhang Si Xian said seriously.

The Great Chu Kingdom had only been established for ten years.

Before it was established, it was stormy and the people were in dire straits.

After it was established, the Emperor of the Great Chu Kingdom was able to govern to the present day with a pair of iron hands.

However, compared to other neighboring countries, the state of Da Chu is still in the process of development.

The imperial examinations were organized to create the power of the literati.

Heavy force, build the wall of protection.

Reduce taxes, solve the people’s emergency.

Several major measures in parallel, only in ten years to stabilize.

And for the jianghu people, the emperor of the state of Da Chu also has his ideas.

As long as it is not a violation of the laws and regulations of the state of Da Chu, just how they fight, into a kind of loose state.

The Emperor of Da Chu is very smart.

He knows that if you want to develop in a short time, the most important thing is to complement the strengths and weaknesses, but also have to give and take.

Shed Jianghu, heavy science, force, people.

Wait until everything is built, then take this huge Jianghu.

As for the scattered jianghu people, Da Chu Emperor is even more lenient.

As long as they were registered in the Zhen Gui Si, they could live the life they wanted.

There would be no changes in a short period of time.

If the Great Chu Kingdom really developed more and more, there might be changes, but that would already be a long time from now.

That was why Zhang Si Xian was not hostile.

He even felt that the appearance of an expert within the Settlement Prefecture was still a good thing for them.

“It’s nothing serious, let’s go back first, don’t worry, we will never expose your identity, you can still live your own life.” Zhang Si Xian gave another assurance, “But after we go back, you find a time to come to the Town Gui Si to register, we’ll just do it quietly.”

Zhou An nodded.

He did not say anything else and left alone.

Only after he left did Zhang Si Xian and Sheriff Xie breathe a sigh of relief.

Sheriff Xie wiped his sweat, “Zhou An’s pressure is even higher than when I fought a dozen boats of water bandits at night.”

Pressure, besides coming from strength, was more of a fumbling.

Zhang Si Xian did not want to talk more on this topic, “Let’s go back first.”

“What you promised me ……,” Sheriff Xie asked.

Zhang Si County patted Sheriff Xie’s shoulder, “With this merit, your entry into the Zhen Gui Si is nine out of ten, I’ll fight tooth and nail to get you in.”

The two of them stopped talking and walked towards the way back.

Next, everything went according to the right track.

Sheriff Xie and Zhang Si Xian did not expose Zhou An, and they sent people to do all the follow-up work before leaving Cloud Mountain.

Without the threat of the Beast Cult, Yu Hang didn’t have to stay inside the government office.

He went back with Zhou An and after arriving at his door, he greeted him and went inside.

Zhou An also returned to his home and moved his wrists, not going to sleep right away.

Something like a liver should never be slacked off, and if you slack off, you’re lazy.

Zhou An stretched a lazy waist, came to the kitchen, decided to liver a moment to plow ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding and upside down.

Soon, the room resounded with tinkling sounds.

The next day.

Zhou An got up early.

Originally, he had arranged his time in such a way that running in the morning in the morning was a way to increase his proficiency.

But today he tried it.

Sure enough, it was exactly as he thought, after reaching the third level, there was no way to grow the Swimming Dragon Steps through running anymore.

He had to have the corresponding comprehension to do so.

For example, the previous Upside Down and Knife Skills both had another method to liver before they improved.

After running for a while with no effect, Zhou An stopped running for the time being.

Thinking in his mind, how could he get his running proficiency up.

It was also getting late, so he didn’t continue to stay.

After eating breakfast, he went to the Yamen to order his duties.

After livering for a while last night, it was still rewarding.

All three skills were at level three, up whoever was up.

Starting today, there was no need to patrol the streets in groups of two by two.

The people from the Beast Cult had been settled, and the constables had become salty.

Zhou An, however, was not salty.

He had an appointment with Master Xu, so he came to the kitchen and started preparing lunch.

First, he cut up the vegetables, then he set them aside and carved the wood again.

The entire kitchen was now his alone, and he could do whatever he wanted.

After carving the wood for a long time and gaining a lot of proficiency, he then made lunch.

While making it, incidentally, he practiced his proficiency in Upside Down Objects again.

The morning passed like this, until after lunch, Zhou An then left the kitchen.

Coming inside the room, he prepared to continue touching fish.

During this time, there was no sign of Sheriff Xie.

Zhou An guessed that it should be related to the Zhen Gui Si.

He didn’t bother to think much about it, it had nothing to do with him either.

Zhou An planned to go to the Zhen Gui Si to find Zhang Si Xian after his shift was over and secretly register there.

Time passed like this.

Until it was almost time for the duty to be dispersed, but Master Xu suddenly walked in.

“Sheriff Xie has risen high in the Zhen Gui Division, now, the Sheriff is vacant, if you are interested, you can come to me to register.”
