For the next few days, the Northern Garrison was peaceful.
Just as Xiao Wuji had thought, the people from the Discipline Department couldn't find any clues.
Thousand Households Yuan Xiong sent people to search the bottom of the cliff, but they did not find anything. In the end, they could only conclude that Hundred Households Zhang Ying had died in battle.
Zhang Ying had also become the one hundred households who had been in office for the shortest time since the establishment of the Brocade Guard. He had been in office for less than a day.
After that, the matter of Zhang Ying's death came to an end, and no one mentioned him again.
As for his nephew, Zhang Hao, no one asked about him from the beginning to the end. It was as if no one remembered the existence of this person.
On this day, Xiao Wuji came to the Northern Military Department and was immediately summoned by Thousand Households Yuan Xiong.
In the main seat of the Thousand Households Central Hall, Yuan Xiong leaned back in his chair, looking dignified without being angry.
Xiao Wuji and the other three Chief Flags stood side by side.
"You did well this time. Although Zhang Ying is dead, you still have credit.”
Yuan Xiong glanced at Xiao Wuji, Yang Dali, and the others below. He paused on Xiao Wuji for a moment and said in a sonorous tone,""The bandit leader Liu Meng is dead, and all the bandits have been killed.”
"The chief flag will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver and the small flag will be rewarded with 20 taels of silver.”
"Especially Xiao Wuji, for killing sixteen bandits and bringing back Liu Meng's head, he will be rewarded with an additional third-grade martial art.”
"Xiao Wuji, I heard that you are already a First Rated Warrior. Focus on your training and don't disappoint me.”
"Thank you, sir!"
Everyone cupped their fists in response. Yang Dali, Zhao Yihang, and the others looked at Xiao Wuji with envy.
They knew that Xiao Wuji had already entered Yuan Xiong's eyes.
The value of an eighteen-year-old First Rated Warrior was completely different from those thirty-year-old First Rated Warriors.
Xiao Wuji was full of potential and would definitely break through to the Xiantian realm in the future. He would definitely be one of the Hundred Households.
Their potential had already been exhausted, and it was impossible for them to make much progress in their martial arts in this lifetime.
If he wanted to be promoted to a hundred households, he had to leave Jinling and go to a local prefecture.
But who would be willing to give up the bustling Jinling to develop in a prefecture?
"You may leave."
Yuan Xiong waved his hand.
"This subordinate will take his leave."
Everyone cupped their fists and left the central hall.
When he walked out of the door, the other three leaders immediately surrounded him. Yang Dali said,""Wuji, this time you showed your face in front of Lord Qianhu, so you must treat us.”
The other two leaders quickly agreed." That's right, that's right. We have to treat."”
"If we don't have enough money, we can pay.”
Xiao Wuji had great potential and would definitely rise to a hundred or even a thousand households in the future.
If he didn't try to build connections now, when would he?
None of the leaders wanted to let go of this opportunity.
Xiao Wuji smiled and said,"No problem. Let's go to the Ten Thousand Flower House."”
"However, the treat will have to wait until tonight. Everyone, it's better to collect the reward first.”
After that, Xiao Wuji and the others went to collect the reward money.
50 taels might be a huge sum of money for ordinary people, but Xiao Wuji and the others did not care.
Although the monthly salary and reward of the Jinyiwei were not much, the Jinyiwei had other ways to earn money.
For example, looting.
Every time the Brocade Guard participated in the raid, they could earn a lot of money. One harvest was equivalent to ten years of salary.
There were also bandits, pirates, and martial artists.
In the process of completing the mission, there would be additional income.
Some of these earnings were open and some were hidden. The open ones had to hand over a portion, while the hidden ones could swallow all of it.
As long as there were no serious consequences, the Discipline Department would turn a blind eye.
Therefore, after becoming a Jinyiwei, most of them would not lack money.
For people like his father, Xiao Ruohai, and Yang Dali, who had been in the Brocade Guard for more than ten years, even though they were only the chief banners when they were old, they still had a lot of savings.
After receiving the reward, Xiao Wuji went to the Sutra Depository.
The Scripture Depository was also known as the Secret Armory. It was located in the central area of the North Military Bureau and was a nine-story pavilion.
There were countless treasures in the building, including but not limited to martial arts manuals, divine weapons, and elixirs.
Most of these treasures were snatched from the hands of the various large sects in the martial arts world during the dynasty's prosperity.
Of course, most of them were 'filial piety' from the various sects.
You can't not show filial piety. If you anger the Imperial Court, they can find any reason to destroy your sect.
At that time, everything would belong to the imperial court.
For the sake of the sect's inheritance, he could only give them some martial arts manuals.
The Great Zhou Dynasty used these stolen divine techniques and secret manuals to wantonly train the imperial court's eagles and hounds to use them to dominate the martial world.
Among them, the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Six Fan School, and East Hall were the three strongest organizations.
Some of the experts in the organization were enough to make many martial arts heroes tremble in fear. Many grandmaster-level ancestors did not dare to provoke them.
Xiao Wuji came to the entrance of the Sutra Library and saw that there were only four teams of Embroidered Uniform Guards patrolling outside. The total number of people was no more than 165.
However, Xiao Wuji knew that these were only the guards on the surface of the Sutra Depository. The guards in the dark were ten times stronger than this.
There were several elders guarding the Sutra Depository all year round. All of them were grandmaster level experts, and there was at least one great grandmaster.
After so many years, it was not that there were no martial arts masters who came to the Sutra Depository to steal divine technique manuals.
However, all of these people died here without exception. Not a single one of them could leave alive.
If he really wanted to learn the martial arts of the pavilion, he could either sell his body and join the Brocade Guard or castrate himself and join the East Chamber.
There was also a special secret arsenal in the East Hall, and the secret manuals inside were almost the same as those of the Brocade Guard.
