Outside of Time

Chapter 728 In this county, past and present

There are flowers in spring, moon in autumn, cool breeze in summer and snow in winter.

This sentence was originally an excellent description of beautiful things, but at this moment, in the sunshine outside the Prison Department, it became ordinary. Only the beauty in plain robes had a pear-shaped smile. It is the most beautiful scene between heaven and earth.

Zixuan couldn't help but laugh.

Her pretty face turned slightly red in this smile, like a blooming peony, and a gentle flame appeared in the depths of her eyes. After taking a deep look at Xu Qing, she walked forward calmly.

After walking seven or eight steps, Zixuan suddenly turned around and stared at Xu Qing.

"Xu Qing, you've learned too much."

Xu Qing was silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Seeing Xu Qing like this, Zi Xuan's eyes were as clear as blue waves, filled with warmth, and the corners of his mouth gradually curved, as perfect as a crescent moon. The emotions contained in them drove away all the gloom, making his mood clear.

This change in the soul spread throughout the body, causing the elegant and noble temperament to rise again in Zixuan.

It is a kind of beauty that makes people feel ashamed and dare not blaspheme in front of it. It is a state of the soul that combines calmness and agility. It is a charm that makes people unable to help but be attracted by the soul.

He is also the Immortal Zixuan in Xu Qing’s memory.

"What are you still doing standing there?"

Xu Qing's heartbeat suddenly accelerated again. He instinctively raised his steps and silently came to Zixuan's side. With Zixuan's smile, the two of them walked towards the county capital.

Whether it was the breeze blowing against her face or the ups and downs of her mood, Zixuan's long green hair began to flutter behind her graceful figure. As she moved forward, a few strands intertwined with Xu Qing's ponytail and swayed together.

In this wind, Zixuan's soft voice swayed.

"Xu Qing, I don't remember my past life. Even if I experienced the previous scene, I don't have much memory. So I don't know if I was the daughter of the ancient emperor Xuanyou in my previous life or the wick of that lamp."

"If I had a choice, I hope it would be the latter."

"So, let's just define everything we've seen before, okay."

"And I can also sense that that light... is far, far away from us. That direction should be the human race's imperial capital."

"In the future, I will get it back."

"Let me help you!" Xu Qing's voice echoed in a low tone.

Time passed slowly like this, and Xu Qing was very busy in the next half month.

Despite his experience as a previous sword holder and the help of Qi Ye, Yao Hou and others, Fenghai County is too big and there are too many things he needs to do as a county guard. Xu Qing also has a lot to learn.

So in the past half month, Xu Qing spent most of his time immersed in handling official duties, as well as reporting from all parties.

At this moment, in the county governor's mansion, the master of the palace and the deacons he brought had just finished their report. After saying goodbye and leaving, Xu Qing picked up the tea cup and took just one sip before the sword holder came to ask for instructions.

The Lord of Silu Palace came to see him.

Xu Qing organized his thoughts and walked out to greet him personally.

Under the afternoon sun, the master of Silu Palace and a woman appeared in Xu Qing's eyes under the guidance of the sword holder.

The current mistress of Silu Palace is the former deputy mistress of Silu Palace. She is an ordinary-looking old woman with a resolute personality and meticulousness.

Xu Qing had seen it before, but was not familiar with it, but the moment he saw it, he couldn't help but think of the former master of Silu Palace.

The former palace master died on the battlefield together with the master of the Fengxing Palace. Their corpses were made into puppets by Bai Xiaozhuo. After experiencing the sea sealing change, the souls of the two puppets were released.

They are willing to continue to protect Fenghai County as puppets and as the foundation of Fenghai County.

Xu Qing sighed deeply in his heart, with a solemn look on his face, and bowed to the Lord of Silu Palace who was walking towards him.

Even though her cultivation level was only Lingzang, as a county guard, this bow represented enough respect for the master of Silu Palace. When she saw it, she walked a few steps quickly and bowed in the same way.

"I've met the Sheriff."

"please!"

Xu Qing spoke politely and walked into the hall first. The moment he sat down, a touch of majesty and calmness naturally appeared on his body, with starry eyes and divine power.

This is the dignity of being a county governor.

But not everyone can have it, and in Xu Qing, there is not much deliberate element.

He sat there and everything seemed natural.

Naturally, Xu Qing was not born with it. The reason for this was the knowledge and gains Xu Qing gained from the trip to the Moon Sacrifice Region.

Few people can have the experience of contacting multiple Yun gods, let alone rescuing them, and as the master of the Niyue Palace, participating in the battle of the Son of God and the battle of the Red Mother.

How can a person who has slaughtered gods not be calm?

The Palace Master of Silu Palace was also surprised. This was the first time in half a month that she met Xu Qing alone. Originally, there were some changes in her heart, but now seeing Xu Qing's calmness, she thought thoughtfully and said All thoughts were suppressed, and he reported in a deep voice about the work of Silu Palace.

Xu Qing listened very carefully until the report by the master of Silu Palace was over. Xu Qing had a better understanding of Silu Palace.

"Sheriff, please review the list of newly promoted candidates."

After the Master of Silu Palace finished speaking, he glanced at the woman beside him.

This woman is none other than Yao Yunhui.

She is now the deacon of Silu Palace, and is more important to the palace owner, so this time she accompanied him to visit the county governor.

She was very nervous and complicated throughout the whole process. On the one hand, she was no stranger to Xu Qing. Even the first conflict Xu Qing had when he came to Fenghai County was caused by her.

However, things are unpredictable. She could not have dreamed that the subsequent events of Fenghai County would make Xu Qing soar to the sky, to the point where she looked up to him.

At the same time, she was also filled with endless waves in her heart for the complexity of Xu Qing. She really didn't know why, but every time she thought of Xu Qing, she couldn't help but think more about his goodness.

These years, it has been deeply rooted.

After hearing the words of the palace master, Yao Yunhui took a deep breath, tried to suppress the fluctuations in her heart, stepped forward respectfully, and handed a jade slip to Xu Qing with both hands.

Xu Qing looked up and his eyes fell on Yao Yunhui.

Yao Yunhui today was obviously prepared in her makeup. A lock of beautiful black hair fell like a waterfall, her curved eyebrows, her straight nose, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her cherry-like lips dripping with water, all revealing temptation.

Her melon-seed face was as crystal as jade, and her smooth skin was as white as ice and snow.

But she looked serious, wearing a black and white Taoist robe from the Silu Palace, which represented seriousness and justice, adding a bit of solemnity.

But the same is true, the greater the contrast, the Taoist robe on her body, because of its difficult to conceal figure, actually has some taboo beauty.

But Xu Qing was unmoved, raised his hand to take the jade slip, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and checked it.

Yao Yunhui's heart became more complicated, looking at Xu Qing in front of her, her mind was a little confused.

Xu Qing didn't understand her thoughts, he was focusing on the list of names on the jade slip at the moment.

This list contains the cultivators who have joined the Silu Palace in recent years, 30 people per month, from various sects, and some are trained by the Silu Palace.

The three palaces of Fenghai County have autonomy in recruiting, but they still have to be reviewed by the county governor in the end.

After scanning a circle, Xu Qing was about to put it down, but soon he exclaimed in his heart, noticing that there was a month a year ago, not 30 people joined the Silu Palace, but 29.

In particular, there was a name familiar to Xu Qing.

Ding Xue

"Last July, one person was missing?" Xu Qing looked up at Yao Yunhui.

Yao Yunhui quickly put away the complexity in her heart and recalled the reason. She remembered that there was a person with seven blood pupils among them, so she understood the reason for Xu Qing's inquiry.

Just thinking about the missing people, she looked strange and spoke in a low voice.

"Mr. County Magistrate, there were originally 30 people in July last year. One of them was Zhao Zhongheng. This person could have passed, but he openly bribed the supervisor in order to be in the same department with a female cultivator named Ding Xue, but failed."

"This matter was reported by Ding Xue, and Zhao Zhongheng was disqualified... Now he is still in the probation period."

Xu Qing shook his head. When he saw Ding Xue's name before, he thought of Zhao Zhongheng.

Hearing the reason at this moment, it turned out that he was reported by Ding Xue... Xu Qing was full of sympathy for Zhao Zhongheng.

But he would naturally not interfere in such matters, so he handed the jade slip back to Yao Yunhui.

He talked with the Palace Master of Si Lu Palace again. After an incense stick, the Palace Master of Si Lu Palace got up and left.

Xu Qing personally escorted them out. Outside the hall, Yao Yunhui, who followed the Palace Master of Silu Palace, could not help but look back and glanced in the direction of the hall after walking away.

Xu Qing's slender figure stood there, reflecting the blue sky, and in her eyes, turned into eternity.

In the days that followed, Xu Qing's work finally became less, and he finally had time to reminisce with old friends.

The first person he went to see was Zhang San.

With the bustle and prosperity of the county capital, Zhang San, who has a business mind, would naturally come. In recent years, he has opened several flying boat shops in this county capital with the income from the Seven Blood Eyes Port.

The flying boat of the Seven Blood Eyes has long been improved and divided into two versions, one for the practice of his own disciples, and the other for sale to outsiders as a magic weapon.

Due to the identities of the Seventh Master and Xu Qing, the sales of the Seven Blood Eyes flying boat in the county capital and other states are considerable, so the shops in this county capital are also very popular.

Zhang San was very excited about Xu Qing's arrival, but he was inevitably restrained and went to the backyard with Xu Qing.

After a reminiscence, Zhang San's restraint eased a little, but it could not be dispelled. In fact, for the past half month, he would wake up with a smile in his dreams.

The investment of that year has already skyrocketed...

"Jun... Brother Xu Qing, the captain came a few days ago, and then left again, with a beautiful woman."

Zhang San rubbed his hands and spoke in a low voice.

Xu Qing smiled. The captain had been missing for a while. He could guess with his toes that the other party must be with Li Shitao, which must be very pleasant.

Seeing Zhang San's appearance, Xu Qing simply squatted beside him as he did in the past.

Zhang San's body shook, looked at Xu Qing, then took out his pipe and took a big puff. After exhaling the smoke, he was full of emotion. It seemed that in this smoke, he saw the boy who followed the captain and walked carefully when he was in the Seven Blood Eyes.

"I can't believe it, I really can't believe it..."
