It has been ten years since Ji Yongtai left town Northwatch City.
He is also a Purple Mansion monk who was born in the West Sea Sect Inner Sect. As long as his head has not been invaded by Evil Spirits, he will definitely be able to firmly control this city in his own hands.
As it should be, sit on the ground and be a tiger.
If Wang Chen wants to complete the task as quickly as possible and wipe out Profound Meaning Daoist's horse bandits, then it is undoubtedly the best choice to cooperate with Ji Yongtai and get the latter's help and support.
The deacon of the Sect Affairs Department also told Wang Chen.
However, when Wang Chen asked Ji Yongtai to help suppress the bandits, Garrison Commander looked embarrassed.
"Junior Brother Wang, it's not that I don't want to help you."
Ji Yongtai frowned and said, "I want to kill this group of horse thieves more than you do, but most of my monks are currently stationed in the towns below."
Northwatch City is not large in scale, but the area it governs is quite large. In recent times, local villagers, herdsmen and mountain people have been frequently attacked by bandits.
Not only that, but Evil Spirits is also causing trouble!
As Garrison Commander, Ji Yongtai was also in dire straits. In addition to sending his monks and disciples to garrison, he also reported to the county and sect for assistance.
"I have sent six of my seven disciples."
Ji Yongtai smiled bitterly, "I can't leave Northwatch City myself. I originally thought that the sect could..."
He didn't say the next words, but how could Wang Chen and Zuo Xiaomo not understand the meaning.
Ji Yongtai didn't expect that the sect would only send two of them to deal with Profound Meaning Bandit Group.
He was embarrassed to say it clearly, scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.
Wang Chen thought for a while and said, "Senior Brother Ji, since that's the case, then I will find a way myself. Please arrange a place for us to stay, and also give us a name to allow us to recruit Rogue Cultivator in Northwatch City to form a team to suppress bandits."
"This is easy to handle!"
Ji Yongtai immediately patted his chest and said, "I have a private house in the city that I can lend to you guys to live in. I'll have someone post a recruitment notice tomorrow morning."
Wang Chen cupped his fists. "Thank you, senior brother!"
"It's a small thing."
Ji Yongtai waved his hand and said, "In addition, I will prepare a batch of Battle Cultivator equipment and supplies for junior brother."
Wang Chen smiled and said, "Good!"
The guests and hosts enjoy themselves.
Since it was already very late, Ji Yongtai arranged for Wang Chen and two people to stay in the VIP pavilion of Garrison Headquarters tonight.
"Senior Brother Wang."
Arriving in the room, Zuo Xiaomo couldn't help but ask, "Are we really going to recruit Rogue Cultivator in the city?"
There is only half a month until the Outer Sect assessment. After deducting the two days of round trip, it will take about ten days to complete this difficult task, which is not enough by any calculation.
Now Ji Yongtai cannot allocate manpower to them, how much time will it take to recruit Rogue Cultivator!
Zuo Xiaomo I suddenly felt that the future was dark.
"Hit!"
Wang Chen waved his hand and placed a mana ban in the room to ensure that the conversation between himself and Zuo Xiaomo would not be eavesdropped.
He said in a deep voice, "Not only do we want to recruit Rogue Cultivator, but we also want to do it with great fanfare. It is best to let all the monks in the entire Northwatch City area know about it!"
Zuo Xiaomo didn't understand. "Huh?"
Wang Chen smiled slightly, "This task will be left to you. You stay in the city to recruit people, and then keep an eye on Ji Yongtai."
Zuo Xiaomo felt a shiver in his heart. "Do you think there is something wrong with Senior Brother Ji?"
Wang Chen calls Ji Yongtai by his first name without any respect. It's not that he has a problem, that is Ji Yongtai!
Wang Chen nodded. "I suspect that he is related to Profound Meaning Daoist."
"How is this possible!"
Zuo Xiaomo lost his voice and said, "Profound Meaning Daoist is the leader of the horse bandits. He is Beiwang Garrison Commander. Without him reporting to the sect, you would not have the task of suppressing bandits."
Horse thieves harass the local area and endanger the villagers. It is reasonable to say that Garrison Commander and the local Wang Chen are life and death enemies, but Wang Chen said that Ji Yongtai colluded with Profound Meaning Daoist, which really subverted his cognition.
Zuo Xiaomo It's not that I don't believe Wang Chen, I just think this is a bit unbelievable!
Medium Spirit Stone light flashed in his mind. "Senior Brother Wang, do you have evidence?"
What Zuo Xiaomo didn't expect was that Wang Chen shook his head and said, "There is no evidence, only intuition."
Tonight's Ji Yongtai performed impeccably in front of the two of them.
To complain to them also means to dig out your heart and lungs.
However, Wang Chen intuitively felt that the other party's words and deeds contained elements of falsehood, or performance!
This Garrison Commander looked like his teeth were itching with hatred when he talked about Profound Meaning Daoist, but there was no wave in the depths of his eyes.
He also deliberately showed his roughness and informality.
It gives the impression that he is the kind of forthright person who is straightforward and doesn't have much scheming!
But Wang Chen's perception is extremely keen. He never looks at superficial words when guessing people's hearts. He relies entirely on his own intuition to judge whether it is good or malicious, sincere or hypocritical.
Never made a mistake!
Of course, Wang Chen does not have any evidence to prove that Ji Yongtai is connected with Profound Meaning Daoist.
Zuo Xiaomo was speechless.
Wang Chen smiled and said, "If I guess wrong, of course it is the best, but you must be on guard against others. Your task is to guard the city. If there is any problem, send me a talisman letter immediately."
For this mission, Wang Chen specially exchanged a batch of sect-made messenger letters.
The speed and distance of the communication talisman are not as good as the flying sword, but it is better in concealment and is not easy to be discovered or intercepted.
Zuo Xiaomo nodded and asked, "What about you?"
Wang Chen said meaningfully, "Retreat."
The next morning, under the arrangement of Ji Yongtai, Wang Chen and Zuo Xiaomo moved into the private residence of Garrison Commander.
Although it is a private residence, its scale is no less than that of the local Aristocratic Clan mansion, with hundreds of servants and maids inside.
At the same time, notices recruiting Rogue Cultivator were also posted at the city gate of Northwatch City, as well as in the streets and alleys.
Ji Yongtai said, "Junior Brother Wang, if you need anything else, just tell me!"
Wang Chen smiled and said, "Thank you, senior brother. I won't bother you for the time being. I'll leave the task of recruiting Rogue Cultivator to Junior Brother Zuo. I'm going to retreat myself."
"Seclusion and rushing into the realm?"
Ji Yongtai was surprised. "Junior Brother Wang, are you going to break through Purple Mansion third layer so soon?"
The true age of monks, especially high-ranking monks, is often difficult to judge from their appearance.
But as long as you don't deliberately hide your aura and appearance.
Then experienced monks can guess it almost exactly.
Zuo Xiaomo is very young, Wang Chen is younger than him!
Such a young Wang Chen is already a monk of Purple Mansion second layer, which already makes Ji Yongtai secretly envious and jealous.
I never expected that Wang Chen would now reach the third floor.
Ji Yongtai's cultivation level is only Purple Mansion third layer, and his age is much older than Wang Chen.
