"Aha, Great Immortal Zhuang, this way please. Please wait for a moment. I will inform Chief Qi," the man said politely as he brought me in and poured me a cup of tea.
"Okay." I nodded. Obviously, this person knew that I didn't come here for no reason.
However, I felt strange when he called me Great Immortal Zhuang. From this detail alone, I could tell how much they respected me.
Not long after, Chief Qi rushed to the police station. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I saw him sweating.
"I'm sorry, Chief Qi. I've disturbed you." I just remembered that today was the weekend.
"Aiya, Xiao Zhuang, you're treating me like an outsider. You don't know that you accidentally helped me, do you?" Chief Qi said gratefully.
"What do you mean by that?" I was a bit confused after hearing this.
"Did you forget? When Governor Zhou fell from power, the higher-ups saw that I had a good relationship with you, so they gave me all the credit. Next month, I will go to the capital to take up a post …" Chief Qi said with a smile.
"Oh."
I suddenly understood. Actually, I just said it casually because I felt that Governor Zhou was a bit biased towards Yamamoto Ryuji of Japan. In the end, he really did have an affair with the Japanese.
Fortunately, I encountered this incident. Otherwise, the development of the Black Mud Facial Mask Company would have been affected.
"Chief Qi, you don't need to thank me. Your conscientious performance these years has won the approval of the higher-ups. It's only right that you get promoted!" I said while shaking my head.
"No, no, no. You don't need to flatter me. I know very well how much I'm worth." Chief Qi was a bit flattered.
Receiving my praise made him happier than receiving the approval of other big shots.
"Hehe, alright. Let's get back to the main topic. I have something to ask of you."
I didn't chat idly. No matter what, I was happy for him. After all, those who were close to me were all rewarded.
After that, I told Bureau Chief Qi about it. He readily agreed and arranged for professional staff to retrieve all the surveillance cameras in the vicinity of the martial arts academy. Since the time frame was confirmed, the efficiency was greatly increased. Also, in order to respect my privacy, he taught me a simple method to use it. Then, he left the monitoring room.
As expected, the video showed that at seven o 'clock yesterday morning, a small unidentified flying object floated out of the martial arts school.
Since the flying speed was too fast and the surveillance camera's recording wasn't very good, it was still sure that it was the Soul Suppressing Bottle!
Damn, it flew away on its own. Did it receive some kind of summon?!
In any case, I was confused. Although I had poured some dark power into the Blood Spirit Bead, I knew nothing about it. The Witch Ye Ji had taught me that chant. If the Blood Devil had mastered some secret technique, it was possible that he could summon the Blood Spirit Bead back.
After watching the recording, I had a headache. I just hoped that the Blood Spirit Bead wouldn't fall into the Blood Devil's hands. Even if he got it, he wouldn't be able to open it easily. I had experienced that terrifying power before.
Then, I deleted the video. I didn't want anyone to make a fuss about it.
Even if there was a satellite recording, it was thousands of miles away. Many things could only be vaguely seen, not to mention something as small as the Soul Suppressing Bottle. It should not have been noticed.
Sigh, come to think of it, the only thing I can do now is to prove myself at the border, serve the country, and try my best to make up for my mistakes.
Just like that, I bid farewell to Chief Qi and hurriedly returned to the Heavenly Eagle Martial Arts Academy.
Coincidentally, he bumped into Curator Du and Gu Yue. "Where have you been, kid?"
Seeing my mysterious expression, Curator Du couldn't help but ask.
"I went out for a walk," I said with a smile. It was obvious that I was dealing with him. Then, I changed the topic.
"Master's wife Gu Yue, your complexion has been pretty good recently. You're getting more and more beautiful. It's not that I want to say it, but when Curator Du brought you out, people who didn't know would think that he found a school beauty in some university!" I said with a smile.
"Aiyaya, this little guy's mouth is covered with honey. No wonder so many girls are head over heels in love with you!" Hearing that, Gu Yue's face immediately bloomed into a smile.
"Master's wife Gu Yue, everything I said is the truth. Oh yeah, when I have time, I can make some Poison Cleansing Pills. I won't say forever youthful, but at least it's much better than the skincare products on the market," I laughed.
Actually, seeing the two of them get back together, I felt proud in my heart. This was my repayment to Curator Du.
"Is it better than the supreme black mud mask?"
Gu Yue asked impatiently. Without a doubt, after Gu Yue moved into the Heavenly Eagle Martial Arts Academy, he immediately got the supreme black mud mask. Without a doubt, no patience could resist the charm of the black mud mask.
"The effect is at least three times that of the supreme black mud mask!" I said after thinking for a bit.
"Three times!!!" Gu Yue was instantly stunned.
"Hong Chen, you really raised a good disciple. I was hot-tempered before and misunderstood this little guy." She couldn't stop smiling and praised.
"Cough cough, Master's wife Gu Yue, don't be happy too early. The Poison Cleansing Pill requires a lot of materials, and I'm not sure if there are still some of them. I have to collect them for a while, but I'll try my best."
In the Medicine King's inheritance, there was indeed such a pill. At that time, it was sought after by tens of thousands of women. Even the empress at that time personally visited Sun Yao Wang. Unfortunately, it was hard to find a single pill. After working hard for several months, Sun Yao Wang only managed to make a few.
However, my words caused Curator Du's eyes to shine. He might have guessed something. Actually, Curator Du knew the most about my secrets.
Many people had an inexplicable fate with the Martial Saint Monument. In comparison, my luck was so good that it made one's hair stand on end.
"It's fine, it's fine. Master's wife will wait for your good news," Gu Yue giggled.
Gu Yue giggled and didn't forget to remind me to take the matter of waking up Leng Yue to heart. Naturally, I agreed.
"Curator Du, if nothing unexpected happens, I should leave for the border today. They need me there."
Although I have little wives at home who are crying piteously for food, I can't disregard the lives of the soldiers just because of my personal feelings. Every single one of them has an ordinary family behind them, and they even have white-haired people waiting for them.
"En, en, no problem. It's good that you have a sense of responsibility. I'll help you arrange a vehicle."
Curator Du was full of praise. After thinking for a bit, he said in a low voice, "Come with me. The border is extremely dangerous. It's better to be prepared if you have more skills."
