“It’s almost there.”

"It's been a long time, why don't you come out?"

"It's almost done, it's coming out!"

Zhou Qing withdrew his huge mental power and found that Bai Ruoyue was blushing.

"Thank you, Senior Sister. How about I show you my results?"

It's a matter of reciprocity.

"No need." Bai Ruoyue snorted.

"As long as you have gained something."

When Zhou Qing returned to Taolin, he received good news from Lu Qingmo.

"Your application for promotion has been approved. From now on, you are a seventh-rank ghost and god parade." Lu Qingmo said with a smile:

"Your information has been updated on the Ghost and God Scroll. From today on, you will enjoy the treatment of a seventh-grade Ghost and God Parade."

The Ghost and God Scroll is a magical tool within the Ghost and God Department, specifically used for registering names and positions.

As long as one joins the Department of Ghosts and Gods and holds an official position in it, one can be listed in the Ghost and God Volume.

After leaving the Ghost and God Department, you will be removed from the list. If you die in battle, there will be a corresponding mark. If you are promoted, your identity information will change accordingly.

This magic weapon is very magical, similar to the mother-and-child magic weapon.

The real scroll of ghosts and gods is at the headquarters of the Ghost and God Department in Yujing, while the scrolls of ghosts and gods in various states and counties are sub-volumes.

But the above information is common. If a member of the Ghost and God Department of a county in Tianzhou goes to the Ghost and God Department of a county in Qingzhou, if Qingzhou suspects his identity, they can check the Ghost and God Scroll to verify its authenticity.

This way, a lot of trouble can be avoided.

Even special positions such as the Ghost and God Patrol will be recorded in the Ghost and God Volume.

"There is also the second volume of Haoran's Great Handprint. The State Ghost and God Department has also agreed to let you exchange it. I can give it to you now."

Zhou Qing was extremely surprised when he heard this.

So efficient? This doesn't fit the style of the court. I haven't even issued a certificate.

Lu Qingmo explained: "Because this is a Taoist technique that can be put into words, not a physical object, the State Ghost and God Department directly gave me the cultivation method in a special way and asked me to pass it on to you."

"It takes a lot of energy to transmit the Taoist practice method over such a long distance."

"It just so happens that you have successfully been promoted this time. Seeing your diligence and hard work, the State Ghost and God Department has specially used this method to allow you to obtain Taoist skills as quickly as possible as an additional reward, without having to waste time going to the State Ghost and God Department yourself."

When the ghosts and gods are promoted during the parade, in addition to the normal salary increase, they will generally be given some rewards, after all, they are truly one of our own.

Zhou Qing said seriously: "Thank you, State Ghost and God Department."

Loyalty! Sincerity! "I will now tell you the method of practicing the second volume. Come closer."

"Too close, move away."

"Too far..."

Lu Qingmo was so angry that he laughed. You did it on purpose, didn’t you?

"If it's too close, it's too close. If it's too far, it's too far. It's my fault. It seems that I'm being unreasonable."

Zhou Qing sighed, it’s so difficult.

"Do you want more? If not, I won't give it to you."

"Yes, yes, yes, Aunt Mo, give it to me now!"

With the foundation of the first volume, Zhou Qing's talent, and the noble spirit he had already mastered, the second volume presented no learning obstacle for him.

"Some of the Taoist techniques of the Saints Academy are difficult to practice, but they are also easy to practice." Lu Qingmo said:

"The key lies in the great power. Once you understand this power, the Taoist arts that are difficult for many people to learn will become very simple."

"I already feel it."

Zhou Qing nodded. This kind of power is the core of some Taoist arts in the Academy of All Saints, and it can directly eliminate many barriers.

No wonder Lu Qingmo felt that Zhou Qing should go there.

After memorizing the second volume of Haoran and gaining some initial understanding, Zhou Qing freed his mind and began to cultivate his soul.

Taoism is good, but the realm is the foundation.

"Aunt Mo, what happened to Zuo Tianzheng during the day..."

Lu Qingmo frowned slightly, "I went to find him later, but he insisted on expanding the Black Cloud Guard and controlling Black Mountain."

"I can make the Ghost and God Department disobey his orders, but if he insists on doing something, I have no way to stop him."

Zuo Tianzheng couldn’t do anything to Xuandu Temple, but Lu Qingmo naturally couldn’t do anything to him as a close minister of the emperor.

"If he really succeeds in this, not only will there be no peace in Black Mountain, but there will be even greater chaos." Zhou Qing said, "It is a lawless place, and strong people who can ensure that his ideas and concepts can be implemented smoothly cannot enter. All this is just wishful thinking on his part."

"Why is he doing this? For political achievements? Is his main task really to develop Black Cloud?"

Lu Qingmo shook his head, "I can't understand his thoughts either."

"Don't get involved in this matter. Black Mountain is dangerous. Wild beasts and various dangers are the masters there."

"That's what we plan to do."

Zhou Qing has not forgotten what happened with Bai Ruoyue last time. That was a dangerous place with lives to lose, not a cultivator's back garden.

After the training was over, Zhou Qing spent the whole night comprehending the second volume of Haoran.

It is worthy of being called the holy art, it is mysterious and profound, with extraordinary intentions.

When it was dawn, Zhou Qing walked out of his room and found that the clouds that he had not seen for a long time appeared here.

"Zhou Qing!"

The little girl greeted Zhou Qing.

"Why are you here?"

Yun Duo answered honestly: "My teacher asked me to come here and tell my father something."

Then Yun Duo asked curiously, "How did you get out? Did you come so early?"

"I came quite early..."

I arrived as early as last night.

She didn't know yet that Zhou Qing had moved and was now the male owner of Taolin.

This matter is quite secretive and only people in the martial arts school know about it.

"Is this all over?"

"That's all. I'm just about to go home."

Zhou Qing nodded and didn't ask what Lu Qingmo had said to her.

"I'll take you there."

It just so happened that he also wanted to go to the martial arts gym.

"Wait a minute..." Zhou Qing thought for a moment and said, "If there is no emergency, I should have time. What's wrong?"

"Are you going to invite me to your house again?"

"If you want to go, that's no problem. You're welcome at my house." Yun Duo said very naturally.

"It just so happens that my father told us to spend more time with you, get closer to you, and cultivate some feelings."

“…”

You are really... honest and open, you say whatever you want and don't treat me as an outsider at all.

My sister, no, my sister.

You don't need to tell me about your father's private instructions. Be more careful, Yun Daidai! "But you may have to come to my house tomorrow. I have something to do today." Yun Duo said: "I'm going to fight zombies later. Can you come with me?"

Yun Duo looked at Zhou Qing expectantly. She felt very happy when she went out with Zhou Qing.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

It saves time and effort, and Zhou Qing is very interesting, making people feel happy unconsciously.

This is much more interesting than going out to do things with her guards or something.

Her guards were not as humorous and talkative as Zhou Qing, they were just very respectful to her.

Yun Duo had no objection to her dedicated guards, but in comparison, she still thought Zhou Qing was better.

Talking and doing things brings fun and surprises to people.

"Fight zombies? Are there zombies in Heiyun Town again?" Zhou Qing wondered.

"These are clues that were just found at home. They are suspected to be zombies. I need to confirm and deal with them now."

"You have to do it yourself anyway."

"I want to do something and gain more experience." Yun Duo said seriously:

"Zhou Qing, you are making great progress. If I don't work harder, you will surpass me."

In fact, I have surpassed you.

But looking at the little girl's serious and motivated eyes, Zhou Qing didn't say much.

come on!

"Then I'll go with you."

"Thank you, Zhou Qing." Yun Duo immediately became very happy.

"You are a good man."

“…”

Forget it, whatever you say is what it is.

Zhou Qingzhen didn't have the heart to argue with Yun Duo.

Zhou Qing didn't go to the martial arts gym directly. He notified Bai Ruoyue through Snail, and then went to the Yun family with Yun Duo.

Then I saw Yun Yun again.

Yes, it makes sense for Yun Duo to be her bodyguard when she goes out.

Yun Yun seemed a little surprised by Zhou Qing's appearance, but she quickly understood.

Yun Yun smiled slightly and said, "It looks like I'll have to trouble you again this time."

"It's a small matter." Zhou Qing shook his head.

After Yun Duo and Yun Yuannan finished telling Lu Qingmo what he had told them, the three of them left Heiyun Town directly.

On the way, Zhou Qing asked, "Where are the zombies suspected to have appeared?"

"It's still a mine." Yun Yun replied, "But unlike the iron mine last time, this time it's a copper mine."

"Another mine?"

Zhou Qing was surprised. This zombie was trying to cause trouble with the mine.

Because it is close to the blessed land of Black Mountain, there are quite a lot of natural resources near Heiyun Town.

The existence of a blessed land is a treasure in the world and has a great positive effect on the surrounding environment, not to mention the benefits inside the blessed land.

"It's indeed a bit strange." Yun Yun nodded.

"After the last incident with the dead corpse, the Ghost and God Department went to investigate other mines in the Black Cloud Territory."

"We have cleared all possible hidden dangers to ensure that similar incidents will not happen again."

The Ghost and God Department is not there to sit around and do nothing. They have been doing things in corners that others cannot see.

Zhou Qing also knew about the inventory of all mines.

Because An Lang had participated in it.

“But there are indeed traces of zombies in that copper mine.” Yun Yun shook her head, somewhat puzzled, and said:

“Maybe it’s because Montenegro’s influence is growing.”

Yun Duo added, "It could also be that there is another corpse-refining monk doing something behind the scenes!"

"Those monks who sneaked into Black Cloud Town and practiced evil arts are the most abominable. They always do bad things!"

After hearing Yun Duo's words, Zhou Qing's heart moved.

The corpse-refining monk was secretly doing something wrong? It was not impossible.

The evil things in the world are basically either natural disasters or man-made disasters.

With corpses appearing again in the mines that had just been cleaned up, the possibility of man-made disasters is indeed greater.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing was already prepared in his heart.

I'm definitely not afraid of that.

With his current level of cultivation, there are few people in Black Cloud Town who can scare him.

If he can’t beat someone, he can fly.

"That copper mine is quite far away, more than two hundred miles away," said Yun Duo.

Zhou Qing was curious, "How did the Yun family find out from such a long distance?"

“Because that’s my family’s mine.”

Yun Duo interrupted, her voice flat and she didn't think it was anything strange to have a mine at home.

Because she has more than one house.

Zhou Qing was speechless. He felt the overwhelming heroism of the Yun sisters and was unable to join in on the topic. After all, he was just an orphan.

There is already a tragically thick barrier between us.
