Chapter 92 Concierge Ji Que
Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi got off the boat, one person and one cat.
Since this was an undercover mission, one person and one cat pretended not to know each other in order to avoid attracting attention.
After all, a young man who goes to do odd jobs would attract too much attention with a cat by his side.
So after landing, Lin Xiangzhi took the lead and fled into the woods.
Because Ji Que forced her to practice every day, her cat body has connected to the thirteen acupoints. Coupled with her previous practice, she can be said to have the strength of the second level of Qi collection.
The most important thing is that after turning into a cat, although the limbs are much shorter, it is also more suitable for sneak attacks.
Compared to real enemies, a cat is hard to take seriously.
After all, what bad thoughts can a cat have?
As expected, most of the passengers on this ship were going to Yunxue Sect to find work, and there were many well-dressed young men and young ladies among them.
Ji Que was a little confused. This so-called immortality was really so tempting that it could actually make these people compete to work as handymen.
Wouldn't it be better for you, Miss, to go back and continue being a young master?
If he didn't have a little grudge against foreign objects and get a fixed salary in order to earn money and upgrade, he wouldn't come here.
Is it because he has finished eating the delicious food in Tianren City, or is he becoming uncomfortable living in his water house?
So Ji Que felt that the reason why these guys came here to seek immortality was probably only part of the reason. It was more likely that they came here to pick up girls and flirt with good guys.
After all, it is said that the people in Yunxue Sect are all good-looking.
So many people mixed together made Ji Que feel a little stressed.
This is comparable to the job hunting scene in my previous life. Before I even reached the mountain gate, the aura of confusion had already begun to dissipate.
Except for a few people traveling together, everyone in the group was wary of each other and showed no courtesy at all.
Some even looked at him coldly, making him want to shout out - "What are you looking at?".
But there are also surprises.
For example, the two enthusiastic young men who reminded him of disturbing the people last night were very polite to him. When they saw him, they greeted him with a frightened smile. He could only smile in return, which made both of them freeze in laughter.
The two young men looked at Ji Que walking on the same road as them, and were a little doubtful about life - "Isn't this competition too exaggerated this year? This scholar can kill such a strange fish, he must have studied martial arts, or even practiced
He's so handsome, so he wants to get a job as a handyman with them?"
I have to say that Yunxuezong is quite beautiful. The clear water flows gently down the gentle slope. When the wind blows, the fragrance of the vegetation from the distant mountains wafts in.
From here, you can clearly see the snowy peaks that seem to be inserted into the clouds, giving people a rugged and majestic beauty.
The group of people walked up the stone path and stopped in a small town at the foot of the mountain.
The town is called "Jiyun Town", with no traffic, neat houses, and various carriages passing by from time to time, making it quite lively.
Obviously, this small town relies on the Yunxue Sect, and thus has a liveliness and prosperity that surpasses other small towns.
The Yunxue Sect will not hire handymen until tomorrow, so Ji Que and the others can only stay here for one night.
According to the prior arrangement, he stayed in Room No. 3 of an inn in the town.
That night, a waiter from the inn knocked on his door.
"Guest, do you want to soak your feet, make tea, or take a bath?"
Ji Que sat in the room and responded: "Let's make a pot of Dahongpao first. Remember, it needs to be authentic."
"Okay, please wait a moment, I guarantee it's authentic."
The waiter left, and Ji Que sat in the room, slightly nervous.
This must be his first time playing a secret code. I didn't expect it to be similar to what he did in the TV series. It was quite exciting.
"Guest, the tea is ready."
"come in."
At this time, a waiter wrapped in a square towel came in with a teapot.
After the waiter saw him, he took the teapot and looked around. After confirming that there was no suspicious person, he nodded to him and said: "Guests, please use it slowly and be careful to scald it."
As he spoke, he pointed to the bottom of the teapot.
Ji Que cooperated with the performance, nodded and said, "Well, this tea is not bad."
After that, the waiter left. Ji Que picked up the teapot and found a letter stuck underneath.
I don't know if it was influenced by the atmosphere of the conversation just now, but he was cautious when opening the letter, for fear that the partition wall might have ears or eyes.
In fact, there was no one in the room near him, and a pigeon landed on the roof, which made him cautious and thought about killing the pigeon.
However, thinking that this might cause a bigger disturbance, he had no choice but to give up.
In addition to additional information about his previous colleague, the letter also contained a letter of recommendation for applying for a job as a handyman.
Yes, it is not easy for ordinary people to work as a handyman in Yunxue Sect. Without this letter, you are not even qualified to apply.
After reading the supplementary information, Ji Que imitated the way in the TV series and burned the piece of paper.
At night, Ji Que lay in bed unable to sleep.
Damn it, it was fine at first, but after this meeting, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep.
So this is what it feels like to be an undercover agent.
This feeling of being careful, doing things rigorously, and walking on thin ice is really a little exciting.
Men are born with the gene for risk-taking.
But he quickly patted his face to calm down.
How can I be a good undercover agent if I am so excited about such a small situation?
After a while, Ji Que finally fell asleep, but his sleep was not stable.
He dreamed that he was meeting people on the top of an ancient tower, then he took out firecrackers and pointed them at each other's heads, and he dreamed that someone was thrown downstairs by someone, and the people below were thrown away.
The carriages were all smashed.
The next day, Ji Que yawned and followed the team to the mountain gate of Yunxue Sect.
As an undercover agent, the first important factor is to keep a low profile, and Ji Que feels that he does not have an advantage in this aspect.
Because he was so handsome, it could be seen from the fact that the young women traveling with him secretly glanced at him and the men looked at him warily from time to time.
What's more, he was in a state of bad luck. From time to time his feet would step into hidden pits, and wild fruits on the trees would fall on his head.
But these were minor scenes, and Ji Que could handle them with just a splash of water.
The most important thing is to be low-key.
Yunxue Mountain is not steep. After walking through the flowers and bamboos, you will find a large green pine forest.
The air in the pine forest is humid, and when the wind blows, the pine trees sound like waves. When people walk among them, they can't help but feel a sense of peace.
From time to time, a herd of deer passes by. Those sika deer all walk gracefully and are not afraid of people when they meet. There is a hint of aloofness in their clear eyes, as if they are hermits living here, and they look quite spiritual.
At this time, the elegant young master in front couldn't help but sigh: "This Yunxue Mountain is worthy of being a beautiful place, as you can see from this deer."
The servant who was following him couldn't help but echoed: "Young master, what you said is really wonderful."
Many people rolled their eyes at the master and servant, but still agreed with his point of view and praised them one after another.
In order to enter the Yunxue Sect, there is nothing wrong with praising the deer here. The steward who takes them to the mountain gate will have a good impression if he hears it.
The deer here are really extraordinary, and Ji Que particularly agrees with this.
After all, you see that the deer legs are strong and strong, suitable for braised, and you see that the deer belly is fat and fat, which is good for stir-frying or grilling. As for the deer head, marinate it first and air-dry it, then dip it in some chili powder after it is cooked.
After discovering that Ji Que was observing him, the leading sika deer stretched its neck and neighed loudly, displaying its usual aloofness and extraordinaryness.
That look even seemed a bit contemptuous and provocative to Ji Que and the others.
Ji Que was not angry at all and secretly remembered it because it was the tallest and had the longest legs, so it looked like it should be the most delicious.
After walking through this picturesque pine forest, the mountain gate of Yunxue Sect is in sight.
Yunxue Sect was not built on the top of the mountain, but on the mountainside with relatively open and gentle terrain.
A wide road paved with bluestones leads directly to the top along the slope. The trees along this road are obviously carefully planted. They are arranged in an orderly manner and are not densely distributed. Therefore, even if you are in the mountains, you do not feel like a leaf is blinding you.
.
Standing on a slightly higher ground, you can see the picturesque scenery below the mountain at a glance.
Ji Que stood there and saw that the green mountains below were like jade, the water was like glass, and accompanied by the faint mist in the mountains, it was like a fairyland.
The scenery above is even more shocking. The Yunshan Sect's well-proportioned buildings seem to blend into the towering snow-capped mountains.
In fact, it is still some distance away from the snow-capped mountains, but it feels like it is right in front of you.
Standing here, you can even feel the chill of the thousand-year-old snow above.
At the end of the road, three magnificent and simple characters of "Yunxue Sect" are carved on a round rock.
There is a bit of moss crawling on the rocks, which is full of ancient charm.
As soon as you enter the mountain gate, you will be greeted by a clear mountain lake.
There is a spring here, with clear spring water constantly emerging. The spring water gathers into a lake, becoming the most vivid scenery at the entrance of Yunxue Sect.
Ji Que's eyes became a little colder.
"There are fish corpses at the bottom of the lake." This was the last piece of information sent by the previous spy brother.
Looking at it now, the lake he mentioned is most likely here.
Because he has already understood that in this area of Yunxue Sect, only this place can be called a "lake", and other places with water are generally called pools.
I don't know if it was because that piece of information had a psychological impact on him, or for some other reason, but Ji Que's thoughts about the lake were different from others.
Others thought it was a lively and graceful scenery, but in Ji Que's eyes it was profound, as if it contained many secrets.
Because some areas of this lake are too deep, the water is bluish in color, and it is impossible to see how deep it is.
This will be the focus of his future investigation.
Fortunately, he is very good at swimming.
Just when Ji Que was thinking about this, a voice of "Come here all over!" rang out in an unceremonious manner.
It was a middle-aged man, elegantly dressed, with two mustaches. He should be the manager of this recruitment of handymen or something.
Everyone followed him to a row of bamboo huts, where there was a table and a middle-aged woman was studying ink.
Obviously, this is the examination room for recruiting handymen.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, because it was obvious that the man with the mustache was very difficult to talk to.
"My name is Sun Dumu, you can call me 'Steward Sun'. Although you all have letters of recommendation, there are not many people here this time." Steward Sun stated calmly.
"Don't worry, I'm fair."
At this time, the atmosphere in the venue couldn't help but become more tense.
At this time, Manager Sun came over and scanned everyone one by one. Finally, he stood next to a young man and said, "You can go down the mountain."
The young man looked surprised and said: "Why?"
"You look ugly." Manager Sun replied coldly.
"Am I ugly? How could I be ugly! I am the most handsome young man in our town." The young man said in shock.
As a result, there was only a crisp sound, and Manager Sun raised his hand and slapped the man in the face, causing white foam to fly.
"Do you think I can't see your ugly face with powder on it?"
The man touched his slapped face and looked shocked.
After realizing that everyone was looking at him, he was so ashamed that he covered his face and ran away.
When a woman next to him saw this, he was surprised and said: "Where did you buy this powder? I didn't even notice it, and I even praised him for his good skin."
After that, several more people were eliminated because of their appearance.
It can be seen that Manager Sun has very strict requirements on appearance.
He should have his own standards for judging appearance, and if one of them fails, he will let people go.
For example, a somewhat well-behaved young woman was sent away because of her yellow teeth.
At this time, Manager Sun touched his mustache and stood in front of Ji Que.
Ji Que stood there with a calm expression, without any nervousness.
Steward Sun narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully looked at Ji Que's whole body, especially his face, as if he could see a flower.
The remaining dozen or so people were nervous and just hoped that Manager Sun could catch some aspect and eliminate Ji Que.
In short, the more people you eliminate, the better, excluding yourself.
Unfortunately, Manager Sun left Ji Que's place with a serious face, but the next man and woman were eliminated miserably.
There is no way, sometimes beauty and ugliness come out of contrast.
The two people didn't look bad, but Guan Sun looked at Ji Que carefully before looking at them, so that they looked ugly.
There were a total of twenty-five people who came this time, and after all this, only thirteen people were left.
After that, the remaining thirteen people began to register with the woman.
"Name."
"Wang Sanshui."
"What will it do?"
"I have been proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I am best at playing the flute."
"Then what, do you know how to clean the toilet?"
"that."
"You can go down the mountain now. We're hiring handymen, not musicians."
"Name."
"Tian Li."
"What are you good at?"
"Feed the horses, raise the horses, I'm from the grassland."
"Go to the stables and be a groom."
"Thank you."
"Name."
"Ji Que."
"What are you good at?"
"Swimming, running errands, barbecuing, chopping wood to make fire, doing laundry and cooking. As you can see, I am still a scholar, good at "righteousness"
"Okay, you go be the concierge."
Until Ji Que was brought to his residence, he still didn't figure out why he became a concierge.
Whether it was swimming, running errands, barbecuing, washing and cooking, and being a scholar who was almost admitted as a scholar, it seemed that it had nothing to do with the concierge.
He thought that he would most likely be assigned to the kitchen, but who would have thought.
Am I born with the temperament of a concierge?
So, after his step-sister Bai Lingshuang became the true disciple of Yunxue Sect and his sister Bai Lu became the introductory disciple, Ji Que gloriously became a concierge of Yunxue Sect.
The concierge is actually quite promising. At least he knew a few of them in his last life. Who was that uncle?
"Concierge Ji, at three quarters tomorrow morning, we will meet at the entrance of the bamboo forest in front. Please don't move around during this period."
At this time, a girl who led him to his residence reminded him.
"OK."
After moving into this slightly humble concierge's hut, Ji Que couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At least he sneaked in first.
At this time, he couldn't help thinking about a question and thought to himself: "I sneaked in as a concierge, what about Ning Hongyu?"
Chen Zhu said that Ning Hongyu would also sneak in to support him.
Based on his observations, he has yet to meet anyone who looks like Ning Hongyu.
In short, he has come in. Regardless of whether Ning Hongyu is there or not, he can start.
Chapter completed!
