"Master is back? This was Young Master Zhang, who had saved Mu Ling.”
The administrative commissioner's wife hurriedly stood up and introduced the situation to the administrative commissioner.
Zhang Yang also stood up and bowed towards him.
"Greetings, Lord Administrative Commissioner."
"Young Master Zhang, you're welcome!"
The administrative commissioner revealed a smile as he watched Zhang Yang with full admiration.
"This old man is Bai Chenzhou. Ever since my daughter Bai Muling returned that day, she has mentioned Young Master Zhang many times in front of this old man.”
"They said that Young Master Zhang is a strange person. I was curious, so I rashly invited Young Master Zhang to come to Ming De Prefecture.”
Bai Chenzhou was very polite.
"Lord Bai is too polite!" Zhang Yang hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands.
"Young Master Zhang, you don't have to be so polite. This old man heard that Young Master Zhang is also a scholar, is that true?”
"A few months ago, I participated in the provincial examination and was lucky enough to be a scholar.”
Zhang Yang didn't want to hide it; therefore, he had to tell the truth.
At this moment, the wife of the administrative commissioner stood up as she left Zhang Yang.
"Young Master Zhang, since you have extraordinary abilities and are a scholar, do you have any thoughts of retiring?”
Bai Chenzhou continued after Madam Bai left.
"Lord Bai, I don't have such thoughts for the time being.”
"That's a pity! However, this is also good."
Bai Chenzhou seemed to have thought of something. He sighed and fell silent.
"Lord Bai, there are demons in the Azure Billow River. I wonder if Lord Bai knows?”
Zhang Yang finally mentioned one purpose of coming here.
"I know." Bai Chenzhou frowned. After a long pause, he said in a deep voice,""This is no secret."
"This matter has been a difficult problem for many years in the Great Jin Imperial Court.”
"It's not that the imperial court has never considered eliminating demons. In fact, when the previous emperors were still alive, they had invited Buddhist and Daoist masters to subdue demons with a large sum of money, but they were all defeated without exception.”
"And after each clash, that demon would wantonly take revenge and harm the people along the banks of the Azure Water River.”
"Many people lost their homes because of this, and many were even killed by the demons in the river. As time passed, the imperial court could only make concessions, and the demon became even more unscrupulous.”
After hearing Bai Chenzhou's words, Zhang Yang became a bit stunned.
A mere evil flood dragon could make the entire Great Jin helpless?
"Lord Bai, are there no experts in the immortal sects willing to kill the murderer?”
"An immortal sect?" Bai Chenzhou was stunned for a moment before he shook his head." I don't know if there are any immortal sects in this world, but there aren't any in the Great Jin.”
"I see!"
It seemed that this world might have Xiuxian sects and Xiuxianists, but the number and strength of Xiuxiuzhe should be extremely limited.
Or perhaps there were other reasons that caused these immortal sects to hide from the world.
"Lord Bai, if I'm willing to take action, I wonder if the yamen can provide some help.”
"Oh? Young Master Zhang, are you confident?" Bai Chenzhou's eyes lit up.
"I'm seventy to eighty percent confident!" Zhang Yang said modestly.
In fact, according to his estimation, the strength of a vicious flood dragon was at most about the same as an immortal puppet, or even worse.
Therefore, he felt that killing that evil flood dragon shouldn't be too difficult.
However, he didn't want to be too confident, lest something went wrong and he was in trouble.
"70 - 80% is fine.”
Bai Chenzhou thought for a while and nodded slowly.
"However, this matter is of great importance and involves many things. This old man needs to report to the Imperial Court first.”
"Of course, I will wait for your news.”
Zhang Yang stood up. Seeing the dark sky, he asked Bai Chenzhou to leave.
"Young Master Zhang, this is the first time we've met.”
Bai Chenzhou insisted that Zhang Yang stay, so Zhang Yang had to agree.
The two of them chatted for a while more before a maid came over and said that dinner was ready.
Bai Chenzhou brought Zhang Yang and Shen Liang to the canteen.
"Eh?"
Zhang Yang was a bit surprised that there were other women in the dining hall besides Madam Bai.
The two young girls stole a few glances at him.
One of them was a round-faced girl. She looked familiar and should have seen her before at Tiger Subdue Mountain.
The other young lady was around 16 or 17 years old. She looked very pure and cute. She must be the daughter of Bai Chenzhou and Madam Bai.
"My daughter, Bai Muling, has always been restless.”
Bai Chenzhou smiled bitterly and shook his head.
According to the memory that Zhang Yang got from his original body, there were also some rules in this world that women couldn't sit at the table; however, they were not as strict as those in the ancient times on the blue planet.
Some families that were more casual might not necessarily follow these rules completely.
The Bai family was obviously the same.
"Greetings, Miss Bai!" Zhang Yang hurriedly cupped his hands.
"Mr. Zhang, thank you for saving me, but I didn't thank you in person.”
Bai Muling also gave a bow, looking like a lady from a wealthy family.
"Miss Bai is too polite!"
"Young Master Zhang, please take a seat!"
"Thank you so much!"
After the two of them exchanged pleasantries, everyone took their seats.
Thank you for your support!）
