I Have A Qi Fortune Altar Chapter 346 - 346 318 Brother Yuan

Chapter 346: Chapter 318 Brother Yuan… Chapter 346: Chapter 318 Brother Yuan… On this, Chen Yuan could not help but feel envious.

During his brief ti at the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, he had only shared a al with Zhang Xuan and had chatted leisurely for half a day, during which Zhang Xuan even ntioned the current situation.

Overall, it was very stable without any forces daring to provoke him, which seed sowhat boring.

Finally, when Chen Yuan was leaving, Zhang Xuan told him that Nanling Prefecture was not far from Tangshan Prefecture and advised him not to hesitate if he needed any support.

This made Chen Yuan feel more recognition towards Zhang Xuan as a friend.

Regardless of whether it was because of his talents that the other party deliberately made friends with him, he had received favors and was grateful to Zhang Xuan.

Leaving Nanling Prefecture, Chen Yuan continued his journey, this ti, donning the attire of the Heavenly Patrol Green Envoy. It was not ostentatious, but there was also no need to deliberately hide it.

As the old saying goes, “Wealth and honor unacknowledged in one’s hotown are like finery worn at night.”

Chen Yuan was not particularly interested in showing off, but he still harbored special feelings for his hotown in this world.

At the gate of Ping’an County.

A procession of more than ten riders grandly approached, and sitting on his horse looking at the “Ping’an” characters above the city gate, Chen Yuan felt deeply moved. If this world had no martial arts,

he might indeed have lived a peaceful and quiet life here.

Marrying several concubines, idly visiting brothels with Wang Ping; that kind of life seed not too bad…

“My lord, your subordinate wishes to visit Master Zhao,” Zhao Beishan rode up to Chen Yuan and said with a salute.

“Go ahead, tell Old Zhao that I will visit him tomorrow,” Chen Yuan nodded in agreent.

Facing this old man to whom he owed a great debt of gratitude, Chen Yuan had always shown respect. Although they did not share a formal master-disciple relationship, they did in practice, from whom he had learned much.

Internal strength, Six Harmonies Saber Technique, he had also received many elixirs…

Among these, there might have been so underlying motives, but the favor was indeed real.

Chen Yuan was ruthless, but that was mostly towards his enemies, whereas he always cherished those who had helped him, just like before,

when he had exchanged for Black Jade Ointnt from the Qingmu Sect to give to Zhao Nanshan, although unfortunately, it was of no use.

He had not found the highly prized Black Jade Discontinuation Ointnt in Jianghu, otherwise… he would have brought it with him this ti.

“Thank you, my lord.”

Zhao Beishan bowed and along with Li Dongshan and three others, galloped into the county.

Watching for a while, Chen Yuan took a deep breath, clamped his legs around the horse’s sides, and said:

“Let’s go, enter the city!”

The constable at the gate, who had noticed Chen Yuan and his group early on, ca forward quickly and asked:

“Do you have a pass?”

As Chen Yuan and his entourage were dressed luxuriously, the constable did not dare to speak too harshly. Instead, his face even bore a smile, making the passing commoners silently curse in their hearts for judging by appearances.

Without dismounting, Chen Yuan glanced indifferently at the sowhat familiar constable:

“How long have you been a constable?”

“Over half a year.” After saying this, the constable belatedly realized, wasn’t he supposed to be questioning Chen Yuan? How had he been questioned instead?

However, looking at the imposing Chen Yuan, he did not dare to show any displeasure.

After nodding, Chen Yuan figured he probably did not recognize him. He then glanced over the faces of a few nearby guards and his gaze paused:

“Li San, do you recognize ?”

The constable pointed out by Chen Yuan was startled, quickly stepped forward, and widened his eyes:

“You… are you… Officer Chen?”

“Correct.”

“It really is you! I thought you looked familiar earlier but didn’t dare to be sure. What brings you back here?” Li San asked cautiously.

“Just passing through. Where’s Wang Ping?”

“Officer Wang is out patrolling the streets with his n. The town has been unstable lately with lots of vagrants causing trouble,” Li San hurriedly replied.

“Alright, let him know to visit at ho after I see him,” Chen Yuan said, then proceeded directly into Ping’an County with Yue Shan and the others.

Li San watched Chen Yuan leave with a respectful expression, then the constable who had spoken earlier laughed softly:

“Brother San, who is that man? You’re more respectful to him than you are to the County Magistrate.”

Li San spat at him and scolded:

“Are you blind? Don’t you know that if there was even a slight disrespect just now, your life wouldn’t be spared today?”

The constable widened his eyes:

“He would dare to attack a constable in public?”

“What’s a re constable? Do you know who that man is?” Li San looked up, a proud look on his face.

“Who?”

“Yes, who, Brother Li?”

“Tell us…”

“Do you rember the respected older brother that Officer Wang always ntions when he’s had a bit too much to drink?” Li San said.

“Brother San, are you talking about… Chen Yuan, the Officer Chen who left our Ping’an County?” It’s no wonder they imdiately thought of Chen Yuan; whenever Wang Ping had too much to drink, he’d always ntion his respected older brother, making it hard for these new constables not to recognize him.

“Yes, the very sa. My cousin in Nanling Prefecture, who is an officer there, keeps telling about his deeds. He’s like a real King Yan, with hundreds of lives taken under his command,

enough to stop infant cries. It’s said that he has extinguished most of the Jianghu forces in Nanling Prefecture,” Li San said with a sigh. “He used to be my imdiate superior. In the blink of an eye, he has beco an unspeakable figure of high status. Even our County Magistrate would have to bow down before him. It’s a pity that I didn’t work on my relationship with him like Wang Ping did; who knows, I could have been the one in charge now?”

“Brother San, that’s not right. Officer Wang got his position because of his strength,” the speaking man chuckled.

Li San glanced at him: “Strength? Where does strength co from? Isn’t it all about resources? A re crumb from his table would be out of my reach,

and you know, our Officer Wang’s talents are not even as good as mine.”

“And now? Not only has he beco an officer, but he also commands great power. Even the County Magistrate and County Chief dare not provoke our Officer Wang, all because he rides on his coattails!”

“Hey, now that you ntion it, it does seem that way,”

“I once had a trendous opportunity before , but I failed to grasp it… Ah well, let’s continue with our duties. Talking too much about such an eminent figure might just invite trouble.”

Li San shook his head, it was too late to say anything now.

When others had not yet begun to rise to power, he did not establish connections, and now what does he even amount to?

“Brother San, how co Wang, the arrest officer, isn’t going with him to Nanling Prefecture?”

“This matter…”

…

…

Chen Yuan, with his extrely keen senses, naturally heard the discussions of Li San and others behind him, but he showed no particular reaction. He had a slight impression of this young man, but it wasn’t deep.

“Sir, are we heading to your residence now?” Yan Qing asked with so curiosity.

“It’s not really a residence, just a simple small courtyard,” Chen Yuan replied with a smile.

Upon entering Ping’an County, Chen Yuan felt as if he had returned to half a year ago when he had patrolled here many tis. Now, thinking back, it seed to have a certain flavor to it.

Huang Xing, Li Mingqi, Tie Xuan…

Recalling the events that had occurred, a smile unconsciously ford at the corners of his mouth. This place was his land of rebirth and his rise.

Ping’an County, what a good on!

Walking on the streets of North City, the pedestrians on the road cleared the way for Yue Shan and others, dressed in extraordinary clothes. For these ordinary citizens, these nobles were not to be trifled with.

If they accidentally offended them, it could lead to the ruin of their families.

Ping’an County was as bustling as ever with no notable difference, except that Chen Yuan noticed that there seed to be more and more people in tattered clothes…

As they walked, Chen Yuan pulled on the reins and stopped in place, his gaze fixed on the distance. Directly in front of him, a few n dressed as constables were talking.

They were subtly surrounding soone slightly differently dressed at the center.

Chen Yuan recognized who it was.

Wang Ping!

Although he recognized the other person by tapping into his powerful cultivation and sharp senses from hundreds of ters away, due to the passing crowd on the road,

Wang Ping did not notice him imdiately.

“Master, Yanyu Building tonight?” one of the constables asked with a flattering expression.

Wang Ping pondered for a mont, “Isn’t that too extravagant?”

“If your honor would grace us with your presence, it would be our honor. How can we talk about extravagance?” said the man with a smirk.

“Exactly, sir, if you grace us with your presence, we wouldn’t worry about any extravagance, it’s our fortune,” the other constables chid in.

Wang Ping laughed,

“Alright, you guys have the right idea.”

“Working under your command, how could we not? I heard Yanyu Building recently got a few new girls from Prefecture City, the Oiran, tsk tsk tsk…

Their beauty could sha flowers and the moon; I think your honor would definitely take a liking.”

“That kind of place, I haven’t visited in a long ti,” Wang Ping said reservedly.

“Xiao Liu is right, I’ve seen that woman too, truly impeccable. Despite her age, her face bears no trace of years, almost like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.”

Wang Ping: “The traces of years don’t necessarily show on the face alone.”

The crowd asked, “Then where?”

Seemingly recalling a past scene, Wang Ping pretended to be profound:

“In the place where the peach blossoms bloom…”

The crowd: “???”

They were quite impressed, sohow feeling that there seed to be so deeper aning in his words.

The man who had been speaking continued:

“Master, I… have another matter to ask you about.”

“I knew you had sothing else in mind, otherwise why would you offer to go to Yanyu Building? Tell , let’s see if I can do it,” Wang Ping glanced at him.

“I have a younger brother at ho who has been idle lately. Aren’t we hiring a few more people at the Governnt office this year? Could you see if…”

“Is your brother competent?”

“Rest assured, absolutely. He’s in good shape, and he’s material for martial arts training.”

“You saying that doesn’t count; I have the final say.”

“What do you think?”

“As for that matter…” Wang Ping paused,

“I need to shake my money pouch to find out.”

“Understood, understood,” the man returned an understanding glance.

“As long as you understand. It’s not that I’m making it hard for you, it’s standard practice.”

“Yes, yes, yes…”

“Sir, could you talk more about that Chen, the arrest officer, at tonight’s drinking? We brothers are very interested and always eager to hear more.”

The few n clearly understood where Wang Ping’s interest lay.

“Right, tell us more, sir. It’s said that you and him had a great relationship before.”

“Yes, yes.”

Indeed, as soon as he heard this, Wang Ping imdiately bead and said:

“My relationship with Brother Yuan is indeed good, like brothers from different fathers. He is my great brother. Without him, how could I have beco an arrest officer?

Back then I jokingly said to Brother Yuan to give a hand when he made it big. Now, how about that…”

As he spoke, Wang Ping suddenly stopped, as if sensing soone watching him. He turned around, his tone abruptly pausing, his mouth agape in disbelief, and he muttered:

“Brother Yuan!”
