567 Evil Magic
"What, do you know him?" Mingshan heard it immediately, and cast a smile on his eyes.
"Uh...... Hmm...... everyone was looking at him, Chen Ergen immediately panicked, lowered his head in a snort, and stopped talking.
Mingshan waited for a while, but he was not reluctant, looked at the others with a confused face, and smiled: "It seems that you are all very strangers." ”
The circle of craftsmen is strange, the low-level craftsmen have been stationed in one place for many years to work, and may not go out of their own small world for the rest of their lives, they keep repeating the craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation, and their knowledge is extremely limited.
But with some fame, the higher-level craftsmen will be summoned or hired to do some large-scale projects, and there will be more exchanges and knowledge.
So it is also a heavenly deed, Chen Ergen has never heard of it at all, but the other people are all familiar with it, and they all have their own information, and it is because of this.
But after all, they are people of this era, and the information exchange of this era is very lagging and very closed.
So at this time, when it came to Xu Wen, everyone looked at each other, and almost all of them were at a loss.
"I seem to have a slight impression of this name...... "One of them closed his eyes and thought about it, "Is it the leader of the three consecutive apprenticeship tests on Jiangnan Road last year?"
This person is from Jiangnan Road, but with his status, it is more than enough to be an examiner for the 100 work test, and the apprenticeship test will not be put in his eyes at all.
He is familiar with the name Xu Wen, or because of Cen Xiaoyi. Cen Xiaoyi's severed fingers to blame, clinging to the powerful, and murdering the same case are well-known vicious cases in Lin Luo. In the end, he was able to subdue the law, and was also treated by the victim in the way of others, splashing blood on the street, which is very legendary.
This story has been adapted into countless storytelling books and circulated everywhere, and Xu Wen, as one of the parties, has also spread his name. This person's impression comes from this.
"That's right. A voice suddenly sounded from the back of the team, and the man strode to the front of the team, except for Mingshan and Chen Ergen, everyone took half a step back in unison and saluted together, "Lord Sun." ”
The most famous craftsmen in the Great Zhou are basically invited here, and in the craftsman industry, they have a respected status, and many of them are called "ancestors", and when they come here, they call each other "masters".
However, craftsmen are those who belong to the third class in the Shinong industry and commerce, and their social status is relatively low.
In recent years, the imperial court has implemented a hundred labor tests and apprenticeship tests, hiring talents from craftsmen, and craftsmen can also become officials, which is equivalent to pointing out a ladder to heaven for them, and their status has been sharply improved.
However, the changes in just a few years are not enough to change the status of thousands of years, when they are hired to other families, they are still hired laborers, at most they are called "master masters", and they send a fruit and serve tea in their spare time, and the contempt hidden under respect is sometimes visible.
There are also a few of them, first of all, those who have obtained official positions through the 100-job examination and those who have a social status beyond the usual.
On top of this, there is another kind of person, that is, before the official implementation of the 100 Gong Test, he has entered this class through his own craft, and the typical one is Sun Boran.
As early as eight years ago, he had already entered the Ministry of Industry as a craftsman and officially took up his post.
After that, he served as the deputy head of the Jingying Mansion, and was in charge of three places, repairing the Great Zhou Palace and building the Ink Gong Palace, and was a genuine royal craftsman.
He has a very special position among craftsmen, and whoever sees him must salute respectfully and call him Lord Sun.
Sun Boran became famous at a young age, and he was already a very famous craftsman before he was called "Master Sun", and it was very normal for him to be invited to come and wander. But listening to his words, it seems that he is very familiar with this Xu Wen?
Xu Wen participated in the apprenticeship test in one year, and was appointed as the leader of the county test that year. Another year later, even the government examination was the leader. In addition, the whole division method is Fengjing Yingfu, and now it is common to all official squares. Half a month ago, the Ministry of Industry selected the chief official of the palace in the laterite field outside Lvlin Town, and Xu Wen ran for election with the three ink workers, and Li/Master should know about this matter. ”
Sun Boran said slowly, his eyes looked directly at Li Quan in the middle of the crowd.
Li Quan admitted defeat during the campaign, but he was still very embarrassed to remember that he lost to a hairy boy, and when Mingshan said that Xu Wen was silent, he hid in the crowd and was silent, and now he was named by Sun Boran, so he had to reluctantly respond: "Yes, Xu Wen is skilled and thoughtful, and I am far inferior to him." ”
"Master Li actually said the same, it's interesting! He won three ink workers at a young age, this is a genius of the heavens! Let's take a look and see!"
With such a short period of study time, there is such an achievement?
The crowd immediately burst into discussions, some doubted and wanted to know more details, some felt that Xu Wen must have an unstable foundation, and many people really felt that Xu Wen was very powerful and extremely talented, in short, most of the people were interested in him, and a group of people quickened their pace and hurriedly walked down the mountain.
Almost all of the people present had "left ink" at the foot of the mountain, so they were naturally familiar with the place.
There is a corner near the slightly higher point, which resembles an observation deck, and you can just see the whole mountain road from below.
A group of people walked here, paused slightly, and looked down.
Chen Ergen had been walking relatively late, but at this time, he suddenly took the initiative to take a few steps forward and approached the edge of the "observation deck".
The snow was dazzling, and he squinted his eyes and looked down, only to realize that he didn't really know what Xu Wen looked like, and he was suddenly a little anxious.
He glanced left and right, saw Li Quan, remembered that it seemed that Master Sun just now said that this person had done something with Xu Wen, gently pulled him, and asked boldly: "This, this master, do you know Xu Wen?"
Li Quan almost had a toothache when he heard Xu Wen's name, he glanced at Chen Ergen, and pointed without looking back: "Oh, the one over there who is sitting on the stone carving ice." ”
Chen Ergen hurriedly looked in the direction of his finger, but at the same time, Li Quan looked to the other side.
He saw two men and recognized one of them.
"Zhu Laohan, why is he here?" asked Li Quan in disbelief.
"Wishing the old man?"
"That old man?"
Of course, Chen Ergen wouldn't know who the name was, but the crowd was already in an uproar, and many people were asking.
"Why did you invite him here?" asked Mingshan alone, a little questioning.
"Zhu Laohan is the authentic blood of Lu Banshu, why can't he come?" The answer was not Mingshan, but another person beside Li Quan.
"Lu Ban's book harms others and himself, it is a fake book, and the records in it are all evil arts, how can it be tolerated!" Li Quan turned around and scolded directly.
"People have nature, and there is no good or evil in art, and your words are too biased!" The man was not to be outdone, and scolded directly.
"But I wish the old man ......"
Before Li Quan finished speaking, he heard Chen Ergen's trembling voice next to him: "Then, why did that person suddenly disappear!"
Chen Er was more concerned about Xu Wen at all, but the people next to him were arguing like this, and he couldn't help but glance at the strange-looking old man below.
As a result, after only two glances, he took two steps back and almost sat on the ground!
At this time, he was not the only one watching, so many people also saw clearly, and there was a snowy field below, unobstructed, and there was no obstruction in all directions.
Zhu Lao Han limped and walked two steps on the snow, and suddenly disappeared with the shadow of the person!
