Chapter 91 Catching the Knife
The Five Dogs Tracking Technique is a somewhat useless martial art.
Ordinary martial artists don't need it. But for experts at the Five Organs level, after tempering their Five Organs, their five senses will be greatly enhanced. Although it can't compare to specialized tracking techniques, it's enough for navigating through the fog.
This resulted in this tracking technique only circulating among the constables of the yamen (government office).
Lu Lin only practiced for one night and raised his tracking technique to the minor completion level.
Next, it's time to get to work.
Jinshan Prefecture Government Office.
Although Yang Muzhi's injuries had improved considerably, he was still unable to handle government affairs, and there were not many government officials or yamen runners coming and going.
Lu Lin went to the police station and registered as an official ghostwriter.
This is a profession specifically set up by the Great Liang Dynasty to encourage and manage martial artists.
Ghostwriters are divided into three levels: bronze, silver, and gold.
Completing a ghostwriter's mission will earn you a bronze medal.
After completing ten more missions, you can be promoted to silver medal.
To achieve the gold medal, one needs not only to complete fifty missions, but also to reach the level of cultivation at the five internal organs level.
The benefits enjoyed by ghostwriters of different ranks varied depending on their position within the government.
A bronze-level thief who sells stolen goods can only receive half the appraised value.
Silver medals offer a 40% discount and priority access to martial arts techniques sold by the government.
Being a top-tier ghostwriter is no small feat. You can get 10% of the appraised value when selling items, and you can also get the government to contact martial arts masters in the state to spar and exchange martial arts training experiences.
You should know that cultivating at the Five Organs level is no simple matter.
The cultivation of the fifth organ alone has stumped at least 80% of the experts.
Not to mention, after the five internal organs are tempered, the five elements must be returned to the five internal organs.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so few experts of the Blood Transformation level in the Great Liang Kingdom.
"This is the list of tasks for trainee ghostwriters. You can choose one."
"If you kill bandits or enemy invaders, you need to bring back their heads."
"If you are looking for treasure or lost items, you need to bring the items back intact. If it is inconvenient to carry them, you can contact the local government for assistance."
"After completing the mission, the local government will give you a certificate. Just take it to any prefecture-level city to complete the mission certification and upgrade to a bronze-level swordsman."
The person introduced to Lu Lin was a young yamen runner who looked only a few years older than Lu Lin.
Lu Lin nodded and took the roster to examine it.
The Great Thief Wu Tianjun
In a certain month of a certain year, fourteen members of the wealthy Zhao family were murdered, and in another month of a certain year, twenty-one members of the wealthy Sun family were murdered, and all their wealth was taken.
His cultivation level is Bone Refinement, and he is skilled in swordsmanship and disguise.
Capture and kill him, and you will be rewarded with two thousand taels of silver.
……
Bandit Li Erlong
He killed seven members of the village head's family in a certain month of a certain year, then went to Qinglong Mountain to become an outlaw. Over the next ten years, he killed countless people and robbed passing merchants.
His cultivation level is Bone Refining, and he is skilled in fist techniques, spear techniques, and staff techniques.
Capture and kill him, and you will be rewarded with 3,500 taels of silver.
……
Murderers, arsonists, flower pickers, thieves.
The roster contains hundreds of criminal martial artists of various kinds.
Lu Lin stopped looking at some of the bandits who hadn't been found for more than three years.
Based on the principles of proximity in time and distance, Lu Lin quickly selected three targets.
The young yamen runner quickly issued a note to Lu Lin as proof.
Once he completes the task, he can use this token to complete the certification as a bronze-level ghostwriter.
In addition, Lu Lin also had to register his information, martial arts skills, background, and so on with the government.
Lu Lin has mastered all the martial arts techniques except for the Four Sacred Skills, and he has filled them out one by one.
The yamen runner glanced at it and then sealed up Lu Lin's file.
After leaving the government office, Lu Lin headed straight for the outskirts of the city.
first goal.
Long Yijun, the notorious flower thief.
This man is incredibly agile and has been committing crimes for years.
Countless young women and wives were harmed by it.
Moreover, this person is skilled in using medicine, including village medicine, mystery drugs, and sleeping potions.
If he were to be discovered by chance, he could even spill a handful of poison.
The register records that Long Yijun had repeatedly forced women to have sex with him, drugging the husbands and elders of the women and making them watch him do it.
This man had a wicked reputation, and the government had repeatedly tried to capture and entrap him, but he always managed to escape.
This time, someone claimed to have seen this Long Yijun at the Mountain God Temple forty miles outside Jinshan Prefecture.
Only then did the government synchronize the information to the list of ghostwriters.
Forty miles away.
Mountain God Temple.
A dozen or so knife-wielders surrounded the area.
Inside the temple.
Long Yijun knew that this time it would not be easy to escape, so she took out more than a dozen packets of medicinal powder.
This man had a face like jade and a handsome appearance. If one saw him in an ordinary setting, one would certainly not think he was a womanizer.
"Long Yijun, come out. We have completely surrounded this place. You have no chance of escaping."
"Long Yijun, we know you are skilled in using medicine. This time we came prepared and have already taken various antidotes beforehand. You'd better just surrender obediently."
Despite this, none of the ghostwriters dared to enter rashly.
The antidote can only prevent them from being drugged, but if Long Yijun has other medicinal powders, they might not be able to stop her.
Inside the temple, Long Yijun heard them using the antidote and immediately began to sniff out.
In any industry, those who reach the top are not ordinary people.
Long Yijun is like that; he is extremely sensitive to the smell of medicinal herbs.
A faint scent of the antidote wafted through the air.
Long Yijun quickly determined the ingredients of the antidote.
A smile appeared on his face. "Antidote? Hehe, I can help you make this antidote even more potent."
Long Yijun took out three medicine packets from a pile of medicine packets and mixed them slightly.
Although the mountain god temple is surrounded by many people, there are still some quiet spots.
There were only two guards on the right side of the temple wall, and this was the upwind side.
Long Yijun suddenly appeared.
Both martial artists were Bone Refinement level experts, and they immediately attacked with their swords.
Hearing the commotion, many martial artists guarding the temple gate rushed over.
As Long Yijun raised her hand, she released a packet of medicinal powder.
"Long Yijun, we've already taken the antidote, this powder of yours won't do us any good!"
"Long Yijun, surrender obediently, or we will take your head back."
The two martial artists were tense.
But soon they discovered that the powder that Long Yijun threw out had no effect on them at all.
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with surprise and delight.
This time, coming prepared was definitely the right decision.
At this moment, more than ten other people rushed over as well.
Facing the wind, they inhaled all the powder.
"Oh no, Long Yijun is using dirty tricks."
Everyone coughed incessantly, trying to cough up the medicine powder.
"Don't panic, let's take the antidote. This guy's powder is useless against us."
Upon hearing this, everyone quickly checked their physical condition.
Just as they said, after inhaling the powder, apart from a slight choking sensation in the throat, there were no abnormal symptoms whatsoever.
The crowd burst into laughter instantly.
"Hahaha, Long Yijun, you've exhausted all your tricks this time. Let's see how you escape now."
More than ten people rushed up together, wielding long knives and short guns at Long Yijun.
