There was a seal the size of a palm on the desk, emitting a faint yellow light.

The county magistrate stood behind the desk with his hands behind his back and looked out the window.

Gu Qingshan saw this scene when he came in.

Liu Xunshou reported: "Sir, Xunshou is here."

"I've seen an adult." Gu Qingshan also clasped his fists.

The county magistrate did not look back, but said, "Gu Xunshou, what is your best ability?"

"Bow and arrow, sir." Gu Qingshan said.

The county magistrate said with great interest: "I don't know how your archery skills are. Come on, I'll see how many arrows you shoot."

He stretched out his finger and pointed somewhere outside the window.

I saw a big tree hundreds of meters away, full of chirping sparrows.

Liu Xunshou looked at it and said, "You are fond of wild game. I will see you if you can have a large plate of fried sparrows at noon today. It depends on you, Brother Gu."

Gu Qingshan understood, walked forward, stood in front of the window, and looked at it carefully.

I saw those sparrows playing on the branches, sometimes falling to the ground, sometimes chasing and flying, freely and lively.

At this time, he had already remembered a lot of things, and naturally remembered the method of bowing and arrows back then, so he took off his longbow and pulled the bow and led the arrow.

The county magistrate and Liu Xunshou both watched with breath.

But he easily pulled the longbow into the shape of a full moon, and then the arrow flew away like a flowing shadow.

Bang!

Almost instantly, a constant roar erupted from the big tree, and the whole tree shook violently several times, even making people mistakenly think that it would be knocked out.

Under the sunshine, the leaves fall colorfully.

The sparrows were shocked and had long since left the forest and scattered without a trace.

Liu Xunshou was amazed at the sight.

If such a powerful arrow is shot on a person...

Gu Qingshan withdrew his bow and said with a smile: "My arrow is specially used to kill beasts, and can also kill people, but he is not sure about small animals and the like."

Liu Xunshou came back to his senses and praised: "With this archery technique, no wonder he can kill nine bandits in a row."

At this time, a faint cry came from the tree.

The county magistrate didn't say anything, turned around and took another bow from the wall and pressed the arrow on the bowstring.

Swish-

The arrow flew out and sank into the depths of the tree.

The screams disappeared immediately.

Liu Xunshou immediately praised loudly: "Good arrow technique! This nest of chicks is hidden deep in the depths, and even Brother Gu did not find it, but was solved by an adult!"

The county magistrate shook his head and said, "If you all have the ability to guard Gu, I will not have to worry about the safety of the county town."

Liu Xunshou was a little embarrassed, and he smiled and did not speak out again.

The county magistrate walked back to the table, pointed to the seal and said, "Old Liu, you will take him to get to know his colleagues today, and then go out of the city to get things done - that matter has been delayed for half a month, so you have to do it quickly."

"Yes, sir." Liu Xunshou said.

"Sir, then I'll go down." Gu Qingshan saluted.

"Yeah, go and do your best."

County Magistrate Road.

After the two left, he waited for a while and someone came to report.

"How is it?" asked the county magistrate.

The subordinate said: "Sir, the foundation has been found out. He is indeed the guardian of the most remote mountain village. He has been working diligently over the years, but there is something strange."

"What's strange?" the county magistrate asked vigilantly.

"He doesn't deal with the villagers very often. He lives in the mountains and occasionally goes to the village to see the situation." said the subordinate.

When the county magistrate heard this, he felt relieved and said, "Hmph, what's the matter? If it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be willing to stay with those untouchables."

"This makes sense... He has been preparing for it, thinking of making a living in the county town..."

...

Gu Qingshan rode a horse and went out of the city with Liu Xunshou.

"Haha, how about it, Brother Gu?" Liu Xunshou asked.

"Everyone is in love, and Gu is a little ashamed and dare not take it." Gu Qingshan said.

I went to meet a circle of colleagues before.

Someone patted his chest and wrapped the evening banquet; then some people packed all the banquets for the next day; some people said that they would call a few girls to come over to ensure that he was satisfied; some colleagues even asked to pay a visit directly.

Everyone agreed to arrive one hour in advance and have a good bet first.

There are so many things, although it is quite chaotic, but Gu Qingshan really feels everyone's enthusiasm.

——Perhaps the arrow had spread and the colleagues were very enthusiastic.

"Brother Liu, is our patrol salary very high?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"Why did you ask this?" Liu Xunshou asked back.

"The restaurant I booked is in the center of the county town. I just passed by and saw it. It seems that the expenses will not be small - is this too much trouble for everyone?" Gu Qingshan said.

"Haha, it's okay. In the entire county town, which restaurant dares to ask our county government to collect money?" Liu Xunshou said indifferently.

Gu Qingshan nodded and said, "If you are gambling, I'm just here for the first time and have no money, so I'm afraid I can only watch from the side."

Liu Xunshouhun said indifferently: "When the time comes, someone will send you money, just have fun."

Gu Qingshanqi said: "Someone gives money?"

"Yes, just call some big merchants to come, and they will prepare money and goods in advance, so you don't have to worry about it." Liu Xunshou said.

"Why is this happening?" Gu Qingshan asked.

Liu Xunshou patted his chest and said, "We have to protect this peace. What's the point of their spending some money?"

Gu Qingshan said: "That's true. I'm fine with gambling and eating, but a colleague named Li said he would call a few girls at that time--"

"Hahaha, don't worry, he is looking for a good family, one word - safety!" Liu Xunshou said.

"Good family?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"Brother Gu, the whole city belongs to our county magistrate, and we are also ordered to protect one side - those poor pariahs either contribute money or work, in short, they have to find a way to serve us so that we can have the energy to protect them, right?" Liu Xunshou said.

"What if they don't follow?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"If you want to survive, you have to follow the rules." Liu Xunshou said lightly.

Gu Qingshan smiled and said, "So that's it, I understand."

The two of them rode on horseback and quickly left the city and came to a ferry outside the city.

This place is not far from the county town, only a few dozen miles away, with several boats crossing the river.

The two got off their horses and walked towards the riverside.

"If you throw the seal into the river later, the matter will be completed." Liu Xunshou said.

"That's so simple?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"Some water monsters may be alarmed. If there is really, it depends on your ability." Liu Xunshou said.

He handed the seal to Gu Qingshan and then retreated for a distance from behind.

Gu Qingshan took it and saw two boys engraved on the seal:

"Jiuping."

Jiuping-

It seems to be the name of a nearby town.

Gu Qingshan looked at Liu Xunshou and asked out his doubts.

Liu Xunshou shouted from afar: "What's wrong?"

Gu Qingshan also shouted: "There are two words on it!"

Liu Xunshou shouted: "What is it written?"

Gu Qingshan was about to say something, but suddenly his heart moved.

The seal was kept by Liu Xunshou all the way. When he took it out, the two words on the seal were facing him. Didn't he see it?

Or -
