Chapter 111 Chapter 111 I'm Looking for My Senior Brother
Although Wugengtian is an organization directly under Lin Si, it combines spying, monitoring officials, assassinations, and inspections.
But it is not as mysterious as in the novel. Instead, it exudes the aura of a social animal everywhere.
For example, now, when there are no outbound missions to be carried out and most members are at the base, a meeting is required.
Wugengtian has been trained to be self-disciplined since he was a child, and he has no habit of sleeping in or staying in bed, so he starts working in the morning.
Xiang Feifei opened her eyes, got up, washed, and dressed.
There is no special dress code for the fifth watch. Everyone can wear whatever they want, but everyone still needs to prepare a set of dark clothes to facilitate concealment when moving around at night.
After Xiang Feifei finished brushing her teeth and washing her face, she began to comb her hair in front of the mirror. Her hair was black and thick, and Lin Si had once praised it.
After that, Xiang Feifei took extra care of her hair.
After finishing cleaning, Guo Han knocked on the door: "Fei Fei, go out and have breakfast."
Nowadays, the mornings in Lingzhou are the busiest. Not only do restaurants offer breakfast, but people also set up small stalls to sell breakfast.
Xiang Feifei and Guo Han randomly picked a stall and sat down.
The stall owner is a young couple, very enthusiastic.
Guo Han casually glanced at the table opposite and saw someone who looked familiar.
It was him.
One of the handsome men who was given to the county lady before. She looked at all seven of them at that time, and this was the only one she could look at.
But why does this person look so miserable? He doesn't even dare to order a bowl of soy milk. He only drinks free water and eats the cheapest oatmeal porridge.
Xiang Feifei followed Guo Han's gaze and gave him a look that said, "I understand." "Oh, it's him. You said you liked her when we were secretly watching her, and then Guo Zi went and stalked her for several days. I heard he scared her so much she thought he was being followed by a ghost."
Guo Han drank his soy milk slowly and calmly. "He does have a nice look. I just said it casually at that time. There's no need to be so nervous."
Li Tang and Li Xi have been saving money recently, not for any other reason, but because during the time they have been staying in Lingzhou, the two brothers have already realized what a good place it is.
So he sent a letter back through Liang Nian, asking to bring the whole family over, especially Li Xi's two children.
You are old enough to study now, so you can't waste time.
Therefore, the meager wages of Li Tang and Li Xi were a bit stretched, and there were fewer and fewer people who did not follow the rules recently.
This commission is less than half.
Li Tang sighed slightly and was about to pay and leave, but suddenly he felt a gaze from behind, which made his back feel cold.
He was very familiar with this feeling. There was a period of time before that when he could feel someone following him every day, but when he turned around there was no one there.
Now this familiar feeling comes again.
Li Tang immediately stood up and ran.
In the dark, Guo Zi sneered repeatedly. "There are so many breakfast stalls, but he chose to be at the same stall with Guo Han. Isn't this a deliberate attempt to seduce him?"
Qi Liang was speechless: "The one with the red armband came first."
"Then why doesn't he go to a restaurant instead of a street stall?"
Qi Liangwu shook his head at Zhong Diyan and pointed at his head with his finger.
It implies that Guo Zi has a problem with his brain now.
After everyone finished their meal, they held a morning meeting at the base.
The morning meeting was organized by Zhong Diyan. The first thing to do was to summarize the completion of tasks in the previous month, the funds consumed by tasks and the reimbursement of funds, and then to submit some information collected daily.
Members are not required to collect daily information on a regular basis. They can bring back any valuable information they find while going out or performing other tasks.
From officials to ordinary people.
If this information is organized and classified, it will become a complete information chain and intelligence system in the future, making it easy to investigate someone's personal information and network of relationships.
The next item is to score the preparations for the fifth watch.
Now the children of the second batch of Wugengtian have successfully trained and grown up, and it is time for them to become regular members.
If they cannot be converted to regular employees, they will be assigned to do other things in the Lin Si system, such as guarding the house, etc.
The score sheet was printed before the meeting, and a score sheet was given to each person as they came.
The grading form is scored based on several aspects.
The scores of the five contestants will be combined with those of Feng Ling and Qian Sui to form the final comprehensive score. Those with too low a score will be eliminated.
Everyone is very serious and cautious about the scoring, after all, it is related to the work after the fifth watch and the selection of talents.
Not everyone can do it at dawn.

Tang Duosi was extremely nervous. She had always known that she was only a reserve at Wugengtian, not a formal employee.
She dreamed of becoming an official Wugengtian and working for the county lord.
Because they were waiting for the results, even though the children had been trained since childhood not to be impatient, they could not help but show their nervousness at this moment.
Feng Ling was holding a fishing rod and preparing to go fishing, humming a tune in a good mood.
But the children were all silent, expressionless, with only their hands tightly grasping their clothes.
Feng Ling was quite confused. "What's going on?"
Tang Duosi replied, "Just now, Aunt Qian said that after we submit the evaluation form today, we will be announced today whether we can become official employees of Wugengtian."
Feng Ling blinked her puppy eyes and touched Tang Duosi's head.
"It's okay, it's okay. Even if you don't get selected, we will arrange for you to do other work. You won't starve." After saying that, he picked up the fishing rod and turned around to walk out.
Tang Duosi:.......
After a long wait, Qian Sui walked in with a thick stack of papers in his hand.
All the children stood up immediately and looked at the stack of papers in Qian Sui's hand nervously.
Qian Sui has now taught two classes of children. Once this class of children graduates, the third class of children will be selected and sent here immediately.
Qian Sui's expression remained serious. She said in a cold voice, "Fifteen minutes later, the geniuses will finish grading. The scores, as well as your strengths and weaknesses, are all in my hands."
Tang Duosi suddenly became more nervous.
"As for your results this time."
The children held their breath.
"Everyone passed it." Qian Sui rarely showed a smile.
"Congratulations, you've graduated successfully. I'll hand out the mark sheets now, come and collect them."
The children finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Duosi patted his chest, feeling mixed emotions, including excitement and joy, but also some reluctance.
Zuo You's fish are now very smart, and Feng Ling can't catch them even when he goes to fish.
Feng Ling felt bored and put away his fishing rod and went back.
The children were very excited at the moment, and they all stood in front of Feng Ling, looking at her eagerly.
Feng Ling felt uncomfortable being stared at and asked in confusion. "Looking at your expressions... could it be that none of you passed? That's impossible!"
The children were immediately deflated. "Teacher Feng, we all passed!"
"That's right."
"How could Master Feng think of us like this?"
Feng Ling smiled and said, "Congratulations to you guys."
Since no fish were caught today, and all the children graduated successfully, Feng Ling decided to celebrate for them.
Of course, she celebrated this by eating out alone.
Feng Ling ordered a few dishes in the restaurant and was about to enjoy them when he picked up his chopsticks.
Suddenly I noticed a small wooden mechanism on the table next to me.
Feng Ling put down his chopsticks and began to think about where he seemed to have seen this thing.
She wondered where this was.
I remember it!
Feng Ling slammed the table, and the poor wooden table shook twice, scaring the waiter in the store to death.
Isn't this the little gadget her senior brother made to amuse her when she was a child? Every time she couldn't figure out the mechanism, her senior brother would laugh at her and call her a fool.
But the senior brother didn’t learn kung fu well and couldn’t beat her.
The master always shook his head secretly and said that it would be better if he could combine the two.
Her senior brother came down the mountain earlier than her and became a disciple earlier. Feng Ling has tried to find him over the years, but there is no news at all.
My senior brother is uninhibited and loves freedom by nature. He likes to tinker with wood and some mechanisms on weekdays.
Feng Ling gave up the search.
Now that this object has appeared in Li County, could it be that my senior brother has come to Li County?
Despite this, Feng Ling was not in a hurry. She had ordered a table full of dishes and had not finished eating yet. She decided to eat her fill first and then look for something.
Of course Feng Ling couldn't find her senior brother, so she thought about it for a long time and could only write a letter to Lin Si crying about her injustice and complaining that she couldn't find her senior brother.
Lin Si handed the letter directly to Zhong Diyan.
Wugentian unraveled the mystery and traced the source of the little wooden gadget, which led him to the trade route that was jointly built with Nanzhao.

Zhang Dai has always known his identity.
His master told him this ever since he could remember.
"In fact, you and I are both remnants of the previous dynasty."
Zhang Dai:?
"Master, are you serious?"
The master nodded and said, "It is absolutely true. It cannot be faked. It's just that our previous dynasty is a bit long ago. It is the dynasty before the previous dynasty."
Zhang Dai suddenly felt his brain was about to burn out. "What kind of remnant of the previous dynasty is this? Even if we report it to the authorities, they won't pay any attention to us."
The master nodded, feeling that Zhang Dai was quite open-minded, and continued. "Not only that, but one of our bloodlines has been disrupted. Strictly speaking, neither of us may still have that bloodline. However, our ancestors left us a ancestral precept, saying that we must restore the country. I still have to tell you that your father and mother were deceived into restoring the country, but they ended up killing themselves."
Zhang Dai had never seen his parents since he was born, so he had no feelings for them. When he heard the news, he felt sad for a moment and then could only sigh.
"Now the previous dynasty has been destroyed. Dachen has been established for so many years, what country is there to restore? I won't go."
The master patted his head and said, "My good nephew, you are a teachable boy."
Zhang Dai has a junior sister named Feng Ling. She is very strong, but has a simple personality and is quite gullible.
The two grew up together, playing and fighting together, and have a deep affection for each other.
The master taught Zhang Dai everything he had learned and then drove him down the mountain.
"Although I don't want you to restore the country, you still have to see the outside world. Once you've seen it, it won't be too late to choose to live in seclusion. As for A Ling, I will kick her out next year."
Zhang Dai knew his master was dying, having caught him secretly taking medicine. He wanted his junior sister to collect his body and erect a tombstone for him.
Zhang Dai thought he was quite smart, but only a few years after he came down the mountain, he was cheated when negotiating business with someone.
Although Zhang Dai's kung fu skills are not good, he is not a weak scholar.
But after taking this bowl of knockout drug, he couldn't stand it at all.
At this time, he began to regret that he had mocked his junior sister as a weakling with only strength.
Zhang Dai comforted himself, saying that it was okay, he would find a chance to escape when the time came. He believed that with his intelligence and talent, it would not be a problem.
As a result, when he woke up, he found himself in Nanzhao.
Zhang Dai:?
Not a buddy?
The man said, "Brother Zhang, you're too smart. If you and I work together, I'll never get ahead. I can only resort to this last resort. You're too brilliant, and I pale in comparison to you. I hate you, I hate you!"
Zhang Dai: Then tell me, why don’t we just not work together?
Because Zhang Dai knew Chinese characters, he was selected to work in the Nanzhao princess's mansion, where he copied books for the princess.
He wanted to run away, but the guards at the princess's mansion were so skilled in martial arts that he couldn't defeat them.
Fortunately, Princess Monno is just mean-spirited but has a good heart.
Zhang Dai was not abused and had food and drink every day.
But Zhang Dai was depressed. It was true that people's hearts were hidden. He had been smart all his life, but he was deceived by some friend.
Now it seems that I will have to stay in the Nanzhao Princess's Mansion for the rest of my life and there is no way back.
I don’t know whether the master’s monument has been erected. I am a clumsy junior sister, how can I understand it?
Zhang Dai could occasionally hear some news about Dachen, such as someone in Dachen was rebelling, and the Anping County Lord was currently on the rise.
Until Nanzhao and Dachen wanted to open up trade routes, Nanzhao would have to send people to repair them.
Monno couldn't bear to send the people to suffer, so he compiled a list of slaves in the princess's mansion and sent some of them to build the road.
Zhang Dai was among them.
Zhang Dai thought about it and decided that he had to find a chance to run away, or at least go back and take a look at the old man’s tombstone.
But now it has been a month and he still hasn't found a chance to escape. This Dachen's management is too strict.
Today, he went to work as usual, but Dachen's manager called him out alone.
"Are you Zhang Dai? Do you know a girl named Feng Ling?"
Zhang Dai nodded.
"Can you bear with me for three more days? After three days, we will have a bullock cart going back, and you can go back with us."
The other party's tone was casual, as if he was inviting Zhang Dai to lunch.
Zhang Dai's eyes widened, "But I'm a slave in the princess's mansion, where is Princess Mengnuo?"
The steward said, "All of this has been done. You only need to return in three days. Madam Feng is a capable female official under the jurisdiction of Anping County. You will naturally have preferential treatment."
How could a junior sister like him be a female official? How could he be rescued?
