As the registrant said, there are clear road signs on both sides of the street, with pictures and texts indicating the location of various important institutions in the city.
And just on the street, Yu Linglong saw several figures of monsters with pointed ears.
Although the people around them would look at them a few more times, no one came forward to cause trouble for them, or pointed at each other and made comments - obviously demons and humans have been living together for a long time, and the residents here have basically adapted to the demons. The presence.
"This is not a good sign." Shadow muttered, "The Demon of the West has penetrated into the territory of Daqi, and Qixing will never sit idly by."
"Indeed." Yu Linglong agreed, "But the news from the school is the key. The reason why the Privy Council is afraid of demons is that they have higher talents. If they can find a stable inheritance method, they will be more powerful Qi sensers than human alchemists. "
According to Yan Qing, Jinxia seems to be opening a new door for human beings to inherit Qi sensers. If her news is true, Xia Fan has found a way for everyone to feel Qi, which is no less significant than the creation of the world and slash-and-burn cultivation! If people have an absolute advantage in numbers and can sense Qi, then the demon is no longer an object worth guarding against.
"But it's unlikely even if you think about it. Be careful not to be deceived by a traitor." Shadow curled his lips and said, "Maybe the third princess has laid a dragnet and is waiting for you to show up."
"If I hadn't met Yan Qing before, I would have had some scruples." Yu Linglong chuckled sweetly, "But after the conversation, I already understood that she has not given up on her ideals, and Yan Qing is still the one who always stood up in the most critical moment. Lord Qingjian, who strives to support the Privy Council, her original intention is the same as ten years ago."
If we were to say what was the biggest gain from secretly traveling to Shenzhou so far, it was naturally seeing the lock weaver who looked and was in very good condition.
The new school in Jinxia City is located at the east end of the Secretariat. After a while, Yu Linglong arrived at the door of the school.
But she soon discovered a problem. The school was surprisingly big.
Before she saw it with her own eyes, she thought it was a residential house about the same size as a private school, but in fact its area was almost the same as the palace square. There are guards guarding the gate, and no outsiders are allowed to enter, and there are more than ten houses that can be seen within the wall.
Yan Qing's words are coming true bit by bit.
School education is offered to all children in the city.
"You're not going to force your way in, are you?" The shadow came out and said, "The defense here is obviously stronger than at the city gate."
"Don't worry, I know how to measure. And even if you sneak in, you can't tell how many people are sensing Qi with your eyes." Yu Linglong pondered for a moment, "This matter can only be done wisely."
"Oh? Do you have an idea? Tell me."
"Do you really need me to tell you to know?" Yu Linglong sighed.
"Uh... that's true," Shadow touched his head, "I might as well ask myself."
"Then, let's take action!"
Half an hour later, Yu Linglong pushed a small wooden cart and set up a stall at the entrance of the school. The thatched sticks on the front of the cart were filled with candied haws. In front of the stall, she also put up a wooden sign with the words "Good business! Children under ten years old are free of charge, and those over ten years old are five cents a bunch."
Of course she didn't make this by herself. In half an hour, Yu Linglong not only cleared out the candied haws-gluts in several stores, but also bought the carts. She believed that no child could refuse the free candied haws-gluts** As for the price of five cents per string, it was just to make his behavior look less abnormal.
From now on, she just needs to wait and see.
"This is a good plan." Shadow looked at the candied haws and licked his lips, "When the students in the school go out to ask you for candied haws, you will have a chance to touch them."
Even if it is just the touch of fingers, one can immediately determine whether the other person is a Qi-sensing person.
"You want to eat?" Yu Linglong suddenly asked.
"How is it possible? It's something that only children love to eat. What do you think I am—"
"Um... Really?" Before Shadow could finish speaking, she had already stuffed a bunch of candied haws into her mouth, "If you think about it carefully, I haven't tasted sweet food for a long time. Hmm... This honey tastes quite good. not bad."
Shadow seemed to have completely forgotten what he had said, and also showed an intoxicated expression.
At dusk, students finally appeared at the entrance of the school one after another, and many people immediately discovered the stall opened by Yu Linglong.
"Sister, I'm only nine years old, can I get it for free?"
"I'm not even ten years old!"
"Sister, please give me a bunch!"
In the blink of an eye, a group of children had swarmed up.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, we all have a share." Yu Linglong held the other person's hands while handing over the candied haws, "Hold it tight."
Almost at the same time, she felt a faint breath coming from the other party's palm.
Unexpectedly, the first person was the person who sensed Qi!
"This should be... just a coincidence, right?" Even Shadow was surprised.
Judging from the boy's words and deeds, he didn't seem to receive much special treatment. After getting the candied haws, he happily ran aside to show off to his friends.
Then came the second Qi-sensing person, the third Qi-sensing person...
Yu Linglong's eyes became brighter and brighter.
Only half of the more than three hundred bunches of candied haws were distributed, and the number had already risen to more than 20 people, a ratio that was obviously beyond the normal level. Moreover, according to the children, the school did not separate them from other children and train them individually, but only provided additional basic teaching on Qi. In Yu Linglong's view, this was a complete waste of natural resources.
Just as she was handing out candied haws, two men in indigo uniforms walked up to her stall and said, "Girl, please show me your business license."
"Uh... what certificate?" Yu Linglong was stunned.
"The registration officer should have told you when you entered the city that you must apply for a business license from the Secretariat before you are qualified to sell food." The other party frowned, "These are extraordinary times after all, and we have to prevent people from deliberately poisoning. What, you Didn’t you apply for a permit?”
Only then did Yu Linglong remember that the registrant did say something similar, but she was not a professional businessman and did not take it to heart.
"It seems that there are none. In this case, the stall setting must be stopped immediately, and you must come back to the General Affairs Bureau with us to accept a harmless investigation. Don't worry... I'm just asking some questions." The two of them seemed to be explaining calmly. Despite the situation, they blocked her retreat one after another with a tacit understanding.
"We can't be caught by them! There must be people who are sensitive to Qi in the Secretariat. If you catch them, you will be dead!" The shadow has fully drawn the black longbow. "I will kill the ones on the left, you are responsible for killing the right, and then immediately leave the city to the south. !”
"Put away your bow, it will be hard to explain if we take action!" Yu Linglong shouted in her heart.
"Do you still want to explain to them? As long as the enemy finds out that you are an alchemist in the Privy Council, they will definitely torture you to drain out every information you know! This is not White River City-"
While the three of them were in a stalemate, a woman's voice intervened.
"Um...are you Linglong?"
Yu Linglong and Shadow looked at each other, and unexpectedly saw a slightly familiar figure.
Yu Shuangxue, the former shepherd of Wushuang Pavilion.
