Chapter 40 The Advantages of Martial Arts School Status
One of the patrol officers took Ding Yi's waist token, looked at it carefully, and then handed it to another person.
The other person only glanced at the waist token and did not take it. Instead, he took out a yellow talisman from his pocket and walked around the room with it.
Seemingly finding nothing, the two reunited, and the one holding the yellow talisman subtly shook his head at the other.
"I heard you were recommended by Li Baozheng? What, are you quite familiar with Li Baozheng?"
Just then, one of them suddenly asked another question.
"We weren't very close; it was just a chance encounter."
After a quick thought, Ding Yi spoke.
"Yes, things haven't been peaceful in Mitsuya Ward lately. If there's anything unusual, please report it to the Patrol Division immediately."
The two nodded one last time, then left after saying a few words.
After seeing the two off, Ding Yi thought for a moment and did not linger in the room. Instead, he locked the door and hurriedly headed towards the martial arts school.
After Ding Yi left, two figures slowly emerged from the corner of the house behind him; they were none other than the two patrol officers from earlier.
"What do you think?"
One of them looked at Ding Yi's retreating figure and asked a question.
"The talisman for detecting evil spirits didn't react, so it shouldn't be him."
“It’s already quite an achievement for people from out of state to survive here, let alone have so much money left over. You know Li Baozheng, if he were really a fat sheep, he probably wouldn’t have let go so easily.”
The other person frowned and said.
"Either Li Baozheng misjudged the person, or he wasn't confident he could keep him and instead offered a recommendation spot, preferring to take the recommendation fee."
"Go to the Bai family martial arts school at noon and ask. If there are no problems, continue to observe. The sorcerers at Qingsi Temple have been making more and more moves lately. The higher-ups have ordered us to investigate each place one by one. How can we possibly find anything?"
One of them spoke with a hint of disdain on his face.
"Be careful what you say. I heard that the Yin-Yang Palace already knows about this and has sent a special envoy."
The other person said something in a low voice.
"Special envoy? Why would a special envoy from the Yin-Yang Palace come to this godforsaken place? Aren't the people from the Censorate going to do anything about it?"
"You must not spread this around. It's not the right time to make it public yet. I have a friend in the Inspectorate who found out about this."
"This is getting interesting. Do you know who this special envoy is?"
"I don't know, things are getting weirder and weirder, let's be a little more cautious lately."
"Ah."
...
Walking down the street, Ding Yi appeared calm and unperturbed, seemingly oblivious to what had just happened, but in reality, he was furious beyond measure.
If he hadn't buried some sensitive items underground, things could have really been dangerous this time.
"Looking back, joining the martial arts school was definitely the right decision. Otherwise, those two would probably have arrested me right then and there."
At this moment, Ding Yi felt very fortunate about his decision to join the martial arts school. At the same time, he reminded himself that in this chaotic world, he must be prepared to deal with any possible situation at any time, and what had just happened was the best example.
As he walked, Ding Yi unknowingly arrived at the entrance of the martial arts school.
Without hesitation, Ding Yi stepped inside.
Upon arriving at the backyard, Ding Yi discovered a stranger standing there.
This person was dressed in a cloud-patterned robe, but there was an additional white crane embroidered on the cloud pattern on the hem of the robe, clearly indicating that his status was higher than that of the two people who had questioned him earlier.
Ding Yi's footsteps also made the man glance at him slightly. After seeing that Ding Yi's face was unfamiliar, he stopped paying attention and continued talking to Cui Wancheng.
"Ding Hai, quick, quick, come here!"
Wang Hong waved to Ding Yi and called out softly.
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi quickly went over and stood with Wang Hong.
"People from the Patrol Division?"
Ding Yi asked directly.
"He's from the Patrol Division, and he's also our third senior brother, Nangong Tian."
Wang Hong said.
"Oh?"
A look of surprise flashed across Ding Yi's face, then he asked:
"Are you back to visit relatives?"
"I don't know. I've only met Senior Brother Nangong a few times, but it doesn't seem like he's come back to see Master Bai."
Wang Hong said quietly.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you talking about?"
Xue Bao then approached the two of them and asked them a question.
"What else can I say? Senior Brother Nangong."
Unlike the cautious Ding Yi, Wang Hong spoke in a very casual manner.
"Keep your voice down. If a martial artist in the Bone Forging Realm opens their ear bones, their hearing will be greatly enhanced. Aren't you afraid of being retaliated against for discussing this so closely?"
Xue Bao chuckled.
"what?"
Wang Hong, unaware of the secret, immediately looked panicked.
Ding Yi shook his head and continued to ask Wang Hong:
When did they arrive?
"Just now."
Wang Hong said.
"Hmm, the timing matches up, it seems to be related to Qing Si Temple."
Ding Yi muttered something to himself.
"What, Qing Si Temple?"
Wang Hong was taken aback.
Upon hearing this, Xue Bao immediately understood and said to Wang Hong:
"It seems to be related to the recent appearance of the Green Silk Demon in San Gu Fang. Ding Hai lives in San Gu Fang."
Wang Hong listened thoughtfully, clearly understanding something.
Just then, Nangong Tian actually left the place and walked out of the courtyard, seemingly not even intending to see Master Bai.
After seeing Nangong Tian off, Cui Wancheng gave everyone some instructions and then headed towards the side room in the backyard, seemingly preparing to find Master Bai.
"Ding Hai, why don't you stay here and live with us for a while?"
Wang Hong looked at Cui Wancheng's hurried appearance and suddenly said something.
"No need, I know what I'm doing."
Ding Yi smiled at Wang Hong's concerns.
After Cui Wancheng left, everyone continued practicing Hunyuan Zhuang as usual.
However, this time, they had only been practicing for a short while when Cui Wancheng and Master Bai arrived in the courtyard.
"Master Bai!"
"Master Bai!"
When everyone saw Master Bai, they were initially surprised, but quickly clasped their hands in greeting.
"Ah."
Master Bai extended his palm and pressed it down slightly towards the crowd, then said:
"Everyone, please stop for a moment. I have something to say."
“Recently, things have been a bit unsettled in the outer city. The sorcerers from Qingsi Temple may be lurking there. You should be careful.”
“Your senior brother Nangong just came by and gave me a few evil-repelling talismans. You can each take one from Wancheng later, so you have something to protect yourselves.”
"In addition, the police may be very active recently. If you encounter them, just say you are from the Bai Family Martial Arts School and they will not make things difficult for you."
After Bai Wangyun finished speaking, everyone in the courtyard looked at each other in surprise, clearly still somewhat astonished by such a big event.
External evil invasion, how many years has it been since we've encountered this?
However, the fact that Master Bai personally came out to speak shows that he takes this matter very seriously, indicating that the matter is definitely not simple.
Seeing this scene, Ding Yi suddenly had a new insight.
The superiority of martial arts schools as organizations is evident at this time.
As the highest leader of the martial arts school, he stepped forward immediately to reassure the students when the crisis occurred, and pointed out that the school had connections behind it. This not only put the students at ease, but also had a very good publicity effect.
It's easy to imagine that once this matter reaches its climax, the reputation of the Bai Family Martial Arts School will take off dramatically.
Imagine having the identity badge of the Bai Family Martial Arts School. You can stand tall and remain calm when questioned by the Patrol Division. How enviable would that be in the eyes of others!
"After this, I'm afraid quite a few more people will come."
As Ding Yi looked at Bai Wangyun in front of him, this thought suddenly came to mind.
