Under the night, the silver moon is hidden in the clouds.
Tzu Hour.
On the roof of Zhou Heng's house.
Sitting here, Pei Luoling was looking at Zhou Heng with an expectant face, her big bright eyes staring round, and couldn't help but urge, "And then, and then what happened?
"Is this genius called Xiao Yan really just going to be bullied like this? And why is his cultivation going backwards? Is someone trying to frame him?
"Gee, that's a much better story you're telling than Mr. Storyteller's!
"Hurry up, hurry up, keep going, come on~"
Now she was like a starving baby bird waiting for Zhou Heng to feed her food.
During the daytime, after receiving a hundred taels of silver, Zhou Heng brought this little girl dressed as a woman back home.
On the way, he asked the girl's name.
She claimed to be called "Luo Ling".
But in fact, Zhou Heng already knew that her name was "Pei Luoling" through the system prompt.
--After Zhou Heng saw that this little girl would unconsciously use light body martial arts when walking, he would naturally gain the system hint and proficiency.
However, after taking Pei Luoling home, Zhou Heng didn't give him a follow-up on Mr. Storyteller.
Instead, he proposed to tell her other stories.
It would certainly be better than the "love-hate relationship between Zhou Heng and Miss Wang".
Because that is too shameful.
Even if Zhou Heng's mentality of cha rotten money, it's still hard to talk about it.
At first, Pei Luoling did not agree.
So Zhou Heng first told her the story of the White Princess and the Seven Dwarfs.
Pei Luoling listened with great interest.
Immediately stopped looking forward to Zhou Heng and Miss Wang's follow-up.
And agreed for Zhou Heng to tell her other stories.
Zhou Heng had written online articles in his previous life on Earth, so he knew very well what story was the killer for this kind of "little white" who hadn't heard many stories.
DouDouQian!
Just as he had expected, it was just an opening, and Pei Luoling couldn't stop listening.
When Zhou Heng saw her urging, he smiled and shook his head, "Miss Luo Ling, it's not that I don't want to talk about it, it's just because it's late. Still have to go to the martial arts school, so I must rest."
"But, but I'm so looking forward to the rest of the day..." pei Luo Ling was a bit aggrieved, then she had a bright idea, "Then, I'll give you another One hundred taels of silver, will you continue?"
I'll go!
This little girl is so rich!
Zhou Heng was startled in his heart, but still shook his head and said, "No, I really need to sleep."
Tomorrow was the day that the owner of the Long Xing Martial Hall commended him, and there were all sorts of other things to deal with, so it was best to rest early and keep his spirits up.
"Two hundred taels!" Pei Luo Ling raised the price directly.
"This, let me think?" Zhou Heng's heart was moved, but he still held back.
I am a new era martial artist with persistence, integrity, and aspirations.
How can I bend my back for 200 taels of silver?
But two hundred taels....
That's enough for 20 palm strikes!
"Three hundred taels, I want to hear the follow-up!" Pei Luoling felt three silver tickets from her bosom and placed them in front of Zhou Heng.
".... "Zhou Heng's heart thumped, but after an intense struggle of thoughts, he decided to shake his head and said, "Miss Luo Ling, I It's really important tomorrow, so why don't you come back tomorrow night and listen?"
After saying this, he only felt his heart bleeding.
Three hundred taels!
How can you make 300 taels a night?
There are too many rich people!
"All right." Pei Luoling was a little lost.
However, she did not take the three silver tickets back, but placed them in Zhou Heng's hands and said, "Then you can take these three hundred taels, I'll book the Story for tomorrow night."
Then, she just dropped off the roof and left with a few leaps and bounds, disappearing into the night.
Zhou Heng held the three silver tickets in his hand and froze slightly, secretly saying, "Should I, instead, become a storyteller? Is Lord Wen so easy to get along with in the otherworld?
"Sheesh, why is it a little cold?"
Somehow, he suddenly felt his back getting a little cold.
It was like there was an icy night breeze pouring in, but after looking left and right, he didn't find anything out of the ordinary, so he jumped off the roof and went back to his room to rest.
Getting ready to go to the martial arts school early tomorrow morning.
.....
Early next morning.
Long Xing Martial Hall.
The owner of the museum, Lei Xiu Yuan, who rarely showed his face on a normal day, patted Zhou Heng's shoulder and smiled, "Little Zhou, a good young man! Seventeen years old and nine pints, it's really a bright future."
"Pavilion Master is over-praised." Zhou Heng said politely.
Lei Xiuyuan was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his fifties, tall and muscular, his strength wasn't bad, he had a peak eight-grade level, and estimated that he should be seven-grade in another two years.
His martial talent wasn't bad, stepping into the ninth grade in his thirties, and eight grades in his forties, and if he hadn't worked so hard for the martial arts school, he might have been seven grades by now.
Now that the Martial Hall had produced a young genius like Zhou Heng, he was naturally very happy.
As for Zhou Heng's specific situation, Lei Xiu Yuan had heard Lin Cang speak about it before.
He was extremely satisfied.
If Zhou Heng could be selected to be an outer disciple of the Chang Xing Gate, then the Long Xing Martial Hall would receive tremendous support from the Chang Xing Gate, and all aspects of the martial hall would rapidly become better.
Even if Zhou Heng wasn't selected as an outer disciple of the Chang Xing Sect, the gimmick of "17 years old and 9 grades" could still be used as the Long Xing Martial Arts School's golden signboard in the future.
With this golden signboard, it would be easier to recruit quality apprentices, and the more money there would be, the more the martial arts school could expand further and develop slowly.
So next, under the auspices of Lei Xiu Yuan, in front of a crowd of instructors and apprentices, a separate training room was allocated to Zhou Heng, as well as the right to learn eight martial arts for free, as well as covering lunch and other benefits.
Even some of the instructors were extremely envious of this item, after all, if they wanted to learn eight-grade martial arts, they all needed to save up their teaching grades.
And Zhou Heng could learn it straight away.
People really couldn't be compared to each other, much less to geniuses.
In the end, Lei Xiu Yuan granted Zhou Heng the status of a new instructor with a monthly salary of ten taels of silver, completely getting rid of his status as an apprentice at the martial arts school.
This monthly salary was a cut above the eight taels of a normal new instructor just now.
However, there was no objection.
As someone from the same martial arts school, it was only normal to have a good relationship with a genius like Zhou Heng.
.....
Lei Xiuyuan called Lin Cang to come with him to the "Cloth Department" at the governmental gate after he had praised Zhou Heng.
They came to help Zhou Heng to apply for support from the government.
At the same time, they were also going to apply for some support for the Long Xing Martial Arts School.
--The Qi was martial, and the state and local governments had support policies for martial arts schools and outstanding young martial artists, but they only had to meet certain conditions to apply to the Bu Wu Division.
However, this condition was quite high, and there was only one quota each year, so it wasn't easy to apply for it.
In the past years, Long Xing Martial Arts didn't even have the qualifications to apply.
Of course, now that there was Zhou Heng who stepped onto the ninth grade at the age of seventeen, Long Xing Martial School undoubtedly met the requirements of the condition.
According to the support policy of Huang Tong Fu City.
If this support could be applied for, the Long Xing Martial Arts Center would receive an allocation of two thousand taels of silver for the teaching and development of the martial arts center.
Zhou Heng himself would also receive two hundred silver taels as a reward, as well as the right to build weapons once worth three hundred taels.
The lower three levels of weapon building, the highest quality was undoubtedly on the imperial side, and the cast blades were all of fine production, much stronger than those in the hands of ordinary Jianghu people.
And they could also design their own weapon models as well as special functions.
This right to create weapons was actually a very excellent support.
Bu Wushi Hall.
Lei Xiu Yuan and Lin Cang had already submitted the documents needed for the application.
They were now waiting for the results.
"Hall Master, can we really apply for it?" Lin Cang asked in a low voice, it was the first time he had come with someone to apply for this support policy and he was a little panicked.
"Don't worry." Lei Xiu Yuan smiled and said, "Seventeen year old ninepins, with Zhou Heng here, it's impossible for us to fail to apply, don't think blindly, Old Lin."
"Also, with a genius like Zhou Heng here, we've taken the support of the Buwu Division." Lin Cang smiled, his mood calming down a bit.
"Yes?"
A voice with a bit of banter suddenly rang out.
Only a young man with a thin figure walked out from the inner hall of the Buwu Division, he looked at Lin Cang and Lei Xiu Yuan with a seeming smile and laughed : "There is no such thing as a certainty in this world, don't think too much about it."
After this sentence, he had already left the Buwu Division Hall and sailed away.
Lin Cang and Lei Xiu Yuan's faces immediately turned gloomy.
"That man just now was Tao Feng, the ninth instructor of the Changsheng Martial School." Lin Cang's brows furrowed as he said in a deep voice, "What's he doing here at the Buwu Division? The Changsheng martial arts school didn't have much to show for it this year, either. "
"Something fishy." Lei Xiu Yuan also locked his eyebrows, but still consoled, "There shouldn't be any problem, with Zhou Heng's accomplished performance, Bu Wushi can definitely be It won't card us."
Just at this time, a green-robed junior official walked out from the inner hall, holding an envelope in his hand, and came over to hand it to Lei Xiu Yuan and Lin Cang before going back.
What was placed inside this should be the application review results.
"Look at it, I told you there wouldn't be any problems." Lei Xiu Yuan smiled and opened the envelope, but when he saw the contents on it, the smile on his face froze and he became startled and puzzled.
"This, how is this possible!
