Awaken Chapter 70

A person inside the magistrate’s office or someone with close ties to the magistrate’s office.

At the same time, he could also silently follow Magistrate Li Cheng, so this person must be a martial artist who has entered the rank.

Combine the above two.

This person is Sheriff Chen.

He was the only one in Ping’an County who had attained the rank of a magistrate, and as a sheriff’s head, he could come and go freely in the government office.

The reason that Xu Qingnian was most certain was that.

Sheriff Chen’s face changed when he heard about the unusual arts.

Normally, when a doctor opened his mouth, he would say things that were impossible to achieve.

But Sheriff Chen interrupted at the first opportunity.

Why was that?

Subconscious interruption.

Because there was a book of foreign arts in Ping’an County.

Another factor was that at first he said that Wu Yan was far away and wanted to transfer the tiger away from the mountain.

Without saying a word, Sheriff Chen went after him?

What was the reason?

Sheriff Chen had been a constable for so many years, how could he not have the ability to tell the difference at all?

He wanted to see Wu Yan.

More than anyone else, he wanted to see Wu Yan as soon as possible and explain some things.

It was just that he did not expect that he would be first in line, nor did he expect that Wu Yan had been following him, or that Wu Yan had been hiding near the casework library and he did not dare to show himself.

Everything seemed very coincidental, but it was this coincidence that had allowed himself to survive.

“Sheriff Chen?”

After making up his mind.

Xu Qingnian swept a glance at the sky, it was already dawn.

Xu Qingnian left his original place, but he did not go to Sheriff Chen’s home.

Instead, he went to another place.

The Ping An Inn.

It was just dawn and there were no customers at the Ping’an Inn.

Putting on the prepared bucket hat, Xu Qingnian went outside the inn, found a random place that wasn’t particularly conspicuous, but wasn’t particularly hidden either, and drew on a piece of clothing.

This was the White Clothes Sect’s docking code.

After drawing it, Xu Qingnian walked inside the inn.

Wearing a bucket hat and changing his voice, Xu Qingnian appeared somewhat withdrawn, sitting alone by the window, asking the junior to bring two pots of wine and giving half a tael of broken silver.

And then the long wait began.

He didn’t know if Sheriff Chen would come or not.

But every person who came to the Peaceful Inn, Xu Qingnian would pay serious attention to.

Because Xu Qingnian did not dare to guarantee that Sheriff Chen was a member of the White Clothes Sect.

What if he wasn’t?

That was not a bet.

It was better to play it safe.

Pouring a cup of wine, Xu Qingnian began to carefully observe the crowd.

As time pa*sed little by little, there were more and more people inside the inn, most of them were travellers, people from the surrounding ten miles and eight villages.

And what was being discussed was basically related to himself.

The youngest in particular was talking at great length.

“Gentlemen, I’m not bragging, this Scholar, Xu Qingnian, Xu Wangu, likes to come to the inn for a little drink on a regular basis when he has nothing to do.”

“Usually he has nothing to do but hold a book and read, I thought at that time, Xu Wangu must be a scholar, I never thought I would really be right.”

Xiao Er’s voice rang out inside the inn, and almost everyone’s eyes looked towards him.

In the corner, Xu Qingnian smiled.

This was the reality.

When you have achieved something, the people around you will somehow think you have it in you.

If you drop out of school, go to work and earn money and become a big tycoon, people in the village will say, “When I was a kid, I saw that this kid was smart, and at first glance he was someone who could make a lot of money.

No matter how naughty you were as a child, if you had achievements, it wasn’t called naughty, it was resourceful.

If you don’t achieve anything, it’s just playfulness.

People talked and all sorts of strange things were said, even some people Qingnian didn’t even know, saying they had gone to his house to read books since they were young.

All in all.

The whole village was happy that a genius of the world had emerged in Ping’an County, and all the scholars from ten miles and eight villages came over to visit and study.

Xu Qingnian sat in the inn very quietly, waiting for a destined person to arrive.

It was close to two hours again.

Xu Qingnian remained patient.

Every pa*sing visitor Xu Qingnian paid attention to, but most of them were travellers from the surrounding towns, not many from Ping’an County, and even when they came, they did not pay attention to themselves.

Instead, they bragged about things about themselves.

To be direct, Xu Qingnian did not wait for the people he wanted to come.

But Xu Qingnian was patient enough.

All the way until the inn was about to close, and still no one came.

Xu Qingnian stayed at the inn straight away.

The next day.

It was celestial time.

The inn had not yet opened.

Xu Qingnian still came to the same place as yesterday, and as usual, a pot of wine and half a tael of broken silver as a reward, the little er took the money and left, not paying much attention to Xu Qingnian, not daring to disturb him.

“This guy has a lot of patience.”

Inside the inn, Xu Qingnian lifted her gla*s of wine and was a little curious, the other party hadn’t come looking for him for a day and a night.

It was reasonable to say that the location of the Peaceful Inn was relatively conspicuous, and the mark he had left behind was not particularly hidden.

This handover ability is really a bit poor.

How can this be a rebellion?

Xu Qingnian spat out a little.

But at that moment, a familiar figure appeared.

It was Sheriff Chen.

Inside the inn.

Sheriff Chen was wearing his official uniform and walked into the inn.

In a moment, the shouts of the junior immediately rang out.

“Sheriff Chen, what brings you here?”

Xiao Er’s voice rang out, and Xu Qingnian’s gaze fell on the other party.

“Sure enough.”

With the appearance of Sheriff Chen, the doubts in Xu Qingnian’s heart were instantly gone.

Now he could be 100% certain that Sheriff Chen was the secret son of the White Cloth Sect.

Tsk.

At this moment, Xu Qingnian felt a little sad, this White Clothes Sect was really strong, there were so many secret agents, there were traces of the White Clothes Sect in just one Ping’an County.

In that case, perhaps there are also secret agents of the White Clothes Sect in the court.

I really need to be more careful in the future.

Xu Qingnian lamented in his heart, ignoring the fact that he was still spouting off about the White Clothes Sect’s abilities.

“It’s nothing, just the usual patrol.”

Sheriff Chen smiled and gave a reply, while his gaze fell around and quickly locked on Xu Qingnian.

“Alright, you go about your business.”

Sheriff Chen shouted, and Xiao Er also had the sense not to disturb Sheriff Chen.

Not long after, Sheriff Chen came to a table next to Xu Qingnian, called out for a pot of wine and then fell silent.

Xu Qingnian did not say anything and continued to pour the wine by himself.

It was at that moment.

A voice rang out.

“The holy generation is in the dynasty, and the Confucian minister is new in years.”

The voice rang out, and it was Sheriff Chen who spoke, reciting a sentence to himself, before pouring himself a cup of wine and drinking it down in one gulp.

At this moment, Xu Qingnian was a little surprised.

There was a secret code?

Should we mess around like this?

Uh …….

Xu Qingnian was silent.

He didn’t know what the code word was at all.

The head constable Chen did not rush, but quietly poured wine, cup after cup, until the pot of wine was finished, then he got up and left.

From beginning to end, he did not say a word, except for the secret code he had just said.

But when he was leaving, Sheriff Chen looked at himself a few more times.

It seemed that he looked familiar, but he didn’t think much of it and left straight away.

After Sheriff Chen left.

Xu Qingnian did not move, sipping his wine in silence.

Did he dare to move?

Not dare to move.

After an hour, Xu Qingnian got up and went back to the guest room to rest.

The secret sign was something that really caught Xu Qingnian off guard.

Wu Yan hadn’t told her what the code word was before.

This was a bit of a problem.

Even if Sheriff Chen did not come, Xu Qingnian had basically decided that he was a disciple of the White Clan.

He had come here to meet with Sheriff Chen in order to get some information.

But if they couldn’t match the code word, the other party would definitely not believe them.

“Looks like I can only use that trick again.”

There was no way out, not knowing the secret code, Xu Qingnian could only continue to use the Dream Entry Great Avatar.

After all, mistakes could be made in dreams, but not in reality.

It was night.

Xu Qingnian arrived at Sheriff Chen’s residence, but did not climb up to the eaves.

Sheriff Chen was an entry-level martial artist, so if he climbed up himself, a hint of Tokyo could be heard by him.

Therefore, Xu Qingnian chose a location a few hundred metres outside of Sheriff Chen’s house.

He found a tree.

Lying down casually, Xu Qingnian began to exercise the Dream Entrance Avatar.

With the feeling of drowsiness coming over him, this time he was lucky.

One shot into the soul.

He entered Sheriff Chen’s dream.

In Sheriff Chen’s dream, it was still the inn, but he was still outside the door, not inside.

Xu Qingnian did not hesitate and transformed into a sparrow, flying inside the inn and standing on the beam of the room.

Sheriff Chen had himself in his dream.

The position was all exactly the same, sitting there drinking sullen wine.

Soon, Sheriff Chen walked inside the inn and, as he did on this day, ordered a pot of wine and sat down to drink.

Only before Sheriff Chen could speak first.

Xu Qingnian immediately controlled his dream self to speak out.

“The holy dynasty is a new thing, and the Confucian minister is new in years.”

The voice rang out.

Sheriff Chen visibly froze.

Although he did not know why he suddenly froze, Xu Qingnian watched this carefully.

After half a second.

Sheriff Chen’s voice rang out.

“All directions are emperor’s sons, and one day is a celestial being.”

As the voice rang out.

Xu Qingnian breathed a sigh of relief, finally the set had arrived.

Having received the information, Xu Qingnian did not leave straight away, but continued to communicate with the other party to extract information about the White Cloth Sect.

But perhaps because he had taken the initiative to say the secret code, which should be a matter of order, Sheriff Chen had been very wary of himself and asked questions instead.

So Xu Qingnian didn’t say anything more and pretty much withdrew from the dream.

Let Sheriff Chen figure out the rest on his own.

Waking up from the dream.

Xu Qingnian directly left the same place.

As yesterday, she came to the inn.

Still staying in his bucket hat.

But repainted a new outfit, lest Sheriff Chen not come.

At three minutes past the cusp of the year.

Once again, Sheriff Chen came.

A pot of wine was ordered.

Xiao Er was a bit curious as to how Sheriff Chen came two days in a row, but didn’t think about it.

Sheriff Chen sat beside Xu Qingnian.

As he did yesterday, after the wine came, he slowly spoke.

“The holy dynasty is a dynastic affair, and the Confucian minister is new in years.”

Xu Qingnian took a sip of wine, and then calmly and incomparably said.

“All directions are the sons of emperors, one dynasty is a celestial being.”

As the voice rang out.

Sheriff Chen’s gaze fell on himself in this instant.

Xu Qingnian didn’t say anything, but got up and walked towards the upper floors of the inn.

This was not the place to talk.

Sheriff Chen understood.

Immediately, he followed.
