Cheng Ling originally thought that the right opportunity would have to wait for a long time.

As a prepared person, she is not afraid to wait.

But in fact, that time came very quickly.

At the end of January and early February.

As spring comes, everything revives. The government office, which has finally been on the verge of rest for a while during the New Year, has fallen into a busy life again. The most important thing is to encourage the cultivation of farming and sericulture.

This is basically the top priority for all local officials. Even if Yongzhou is a famous commercial metropolis, it must not be ignored in the matter of agriculture and sericulture.

Statistics of land, population, calculate labor, plan the types of planting, predict possible yields, check the current status of water conservancy facilities in various places, etc., various trivial matters...

It's annoying to say, but it's really annoying to do it.

And these are usually done by the chief clerk and his subordinates and officials. To put it bluntly, Cheng Ling is leading people to do it.

The chief clerk is a brick, and he can move wherever he needs it.

Cheng Ling took people out of the countryside at the end of January, first going to the surrounding area directly under Yongzhou City, and then advancing towards the west little by little.

According to the plan, Cheng Ling planned to walk all the way to the border of Yongzhou to the west, and then go around a large circle from west to south, and walk all the places that need to be counted.

This is a tedious project. When he first went to the countryside, most of the people around Cheng Ling were still energetic. After three or five days, two clerks began to lose their temper. After two or three days, even the yamen runners were all

Some of them couldn't help but lose their energy.

In addition to bringing these people, Cheng Ling also brought two apprentices, Yang Lin and Ning Xun.

Everyone else stayed in Yongzhou City, and each had his own things to be busy, so there was no need to say much.

Ning Xun was the newly accepted disciple of Cheng Ling after he arrived in Yongzhou. This disciple was delivered to him. Cheng Ling had no intention of opening a martial arts school to recruit disciples in Yongzhou, but he took a fancy to some of Ning Xun's characteristics. Finally,

I still agreed to accept this apprentice.

Ning Xun is a very contradictory person, but he is especially able to endure hardships, and Yang Lin is not as good as him in this regard.

On the way to the countryside, a group of seven people had to carry a lot of luggage, but it was difficult to walk on the countryside, so it was unrealistic to use the carriage. Therefore, when Cheng Ling was traveling, he led two donkeys out of the livestock shed in the government office.

The two donkeys were Cheng Ling's mount on one end, while the other was responsible for carrying luggage.

Of course, this was just the original idea. In fact, everyone's luggage did not give the donkey any room to play. Instead, they asked Ning Xun to pack it into a load and carry it on him.

Ning Xun and Cheng Ling learned stake practice. One of the stake methods is called load-carrying stakes, which talks about a balance between left and right and right, and a breath that is thriving.

A force is born from the soles of the feet, penetrates the muscles and bones and reaches the five internal organs, and is endless when moving, refining the tendons and marrow pulling, and regulating the qi when calm, and solid like pine and cypress.

This stance is very powerful. Cheng Ling didn't just teach Ning Xun, but Yang Lin also learned it.

But Yang Lin carried the load several times, but he only felt sore in his waist and back pain, and he could not grasp the rhythm and balance of walking. After a long time, he had no exercise effect except for the labor of muscles and bones.

In the end, carrying the load became Ning Xun's daily routine, and the two donkeys rested.

On this day, they left the border directly under the prefecture and city and arrived at Mingshan County, a subsidiary of Yongzhou.

Since Mingshan County is named after the mountains, it is natural that the entire county has many mountains.

Since ancient times, there have been many mountains and areas, and transportation is inevitably inconvenient. Mingshan County is particularly poor, and it is the Xia County of Yongzhou.

Cheng Ling led his men through the county town, took a book from the county government, and waded through mountains and rivers, gradually deepening into some remote villages in Mingshan County.

A spring rain had just fallen, and the ground was wet and muddy.

Everyone walked carefully. Just as they turned a mountain wall, they saw that the front suddenly opened up.

On the left is a yellow field, and on the right is still a mountain, the mountain is getting shorter and there are thatched huts everywhere at the foot of the mountain, and the village appears.

Yao Qing, a dictionary from Mingshan County, trembled with his legs that were trembling like noodles, breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Cheng, this is Xiaoshu Village. Xiaoshu Village has arrived!"

Oh, his mother, this Lord Cheng is simply not a human!

He was obviously carrying a donkey, but the Cheng Zhuanzhu from Zhoucheng called the donkey empty. "He" did not ride a donkey, nor did he let the donkey carry his luggage, and even asked his subordinates to carry the burden all the way.

It can be seen that this person must be the extremely mean kind of Shangguan!

Yao Qing has a lot of psychological activities, and he complains all the way. Although he is almost blown up by his legs, he wants to ride a donkey, but he is forced and dare not say a word.

Can he say? He can't! He is not stupid. Even Cheng Ling, who is Shangguan, doesn't ride a donkey. When did he mention this from the Scriptures of Yao Qing, a county government office?

At this moment, I suddenly heard a burst of noise coming from the front.

Cheng Ling and others stopped and looked in the direction of the noisy.

When I saw this, I saw a figure staggeringly running forward.

The person behind chased and shouted, "Old man thief, stop!"

"Mens, I have cured the people in our village and I want you to pay my life!"

"Don't run, run and beat him to death on the spot!"

The old man in front of him only hugged his head with his hands and shouted: "Everyone calm down, I'm not a quack doctor! Ouch..."

Before the defense was over, a piece of earth and rubble suddenly flew out from behind and hit the old man in a snap. He immediately beat the old man to the point of shaking his body, and was about to fall into a pond next to him.

Behind the group of people chasing and beating, a man who looked like a servant knelt down on the ground and cried in despair: "The unruly people harm people, I will follow the master today..."

Such a genius accent immediately attracted a big foot next to him.

"Bah! You are the unruly people!" The big foot kicked the servant Changming's back, and Changming fell to the side, and his heart was even more desperate.

Just when Changming wanted to close his eyes and wait for death, suddenly, a blue shadow seemed to pass by like lightning in front of him.

All of this description is a long story, but it actually happens in an instant.

From the old man being hit by Tu Ke, to the unsteady standing and heading towards the pond next to him, to the green shadows passing by.

In an instant, before the long tears could really come out, he blinked and opened his eyes quickly, and saw that on the ridge in front of the field and beside the pond, it was like a big change.

Like a human, there is one more person!

This man supported the old man who was about to fall from the pond, like a ray of wind falling from the sky, saving the old man who was chased and beaten by the villagers at a speed that the world could not understand.

The villagers were shocked, and Yao Qing on the other side was also swallowed hard.

"You, you..." A villager pointed at Cheng Ling, his voice trembling, "Who are you? Are you a human or a ghost?"

The ignorant villagers suspected that Cheng Ling was not human just because they saw that she was much faster than ordinary people and were lifting her body lightly like flying.
