Chapter 26: Changing the Knife
Cheng Yongye was about to step forward to answer, when a voice suddenly came from next to him: "No need to ask, these are the heroes of Chengjiazhuang." ”
Cheng Yuan looked at it, it was a Heavenly Imperial Priest who came next to him, and he seemed to recognize Cheng Yongye.
"Chengjiazhuang?" The two foreign servants seemed to suddenly get out of the way.
Although Chengjiazhuang is not worth mentioning in Youhe County, it is also the top Zhuangzi in the surrounding hundreds of miles, so naturally they have also heard of it.
"You Cheng Jiazhuang, there is one more little brother this year?" That day, the imperial priest looked at Cheng Yuan and was amazed.
Such a young internal strength martial artist can generally be cultivated by the big families in the county seat or the surrounding towns.
"Hey, his name is Cheng Yuan, and this is the first time I've come to participate in the trial, which is to see and see. Cheng Yongye said with a smile.
The Heavenly Imperial Priest glanced at Cheng Yuan, smiled, and led the foreign servants to get out of the way.
Cheng Yuan and the others went straight into the county seat, Huo Dao didn't seem to want to reveal his identity, and he didn't talk much.
Looking at the backs of Cheng Yuan and the others, one of the foreign soldiers also sighed: "This Cheng Jiazhuang is really strong, and three of them will participate in the trial at once." ”
The period when an internal martial artist can participate in the trial of heaven and man is generally only twenty years at most.
Like an ordinary Zhuangzi, there are only two, three, three or four internal strength martial artists in the whole village, and one or two can participate in the trial.
And Chengjiazhuang, however, has a full nine internal martial artists.
~~~~~~~~~
Although he had been to Youhe County several times, Cheng Yuan was still amazed by the majesty and grandeur of this city.
The main street into the city is twenty or thirty meters wide, and even ten horse-drawn carriages passing side by side do not feel crowded.
The ground is also paved with bluestone bricks, and the houses and buildings on both sides are lined up one after another, with various shops, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians.
The entire Youhe county is inhabited by 120,000 people, occupying a radius of dozens of miles.
Such a city is hard to imagine just a county town in the ancient background world.
"Cheng Yuan, you will go directly to the Heavenly Imperial Guardian with me later. When he entered the city, Huo Dao suddenly turned his head and said.
"As for you, let's find an inn to stay in for one night first, and wait for tomorrow to go to the Heavenly Imperial Siwei to participate in the trial qualification assessment. He said to Cheng Yongye and Cheng Yunchuan.
Huo Dao will recommend the quota to Cheng Yuan, Cheng Yuan will not have to participate in the Heavenly Trial at all, he can wait for the trial to end, and go directly to the headquarters of the Heavenly Imperial Division with Huo Dao.
"Yes, I'm sorry to trouble Lord Huo. Cheng Yongye and Cheng Yunchuan also knew about this, so they weren't surprised.
Subsequently, Cheng Yuan followed Huo Dao directly to the Heavenly Imperial Guard.
Siwei is the station of the Heavenly Imperial Division in Youhe County, occupying a large area in Youhe County.
"You don't have to participate in the Heavenly and Human Trial, I will arrange you in the Heavenly Imperial Division first, during this time, I will be busy with the Heavenly and Human Assessment, and you will cultivate by yourself. Huo Dao said to Cheng Yuan as he walked.
"Yes. Cheng Yuan should go down.
"One more thing. Huo Dao paused and said, "Your Shen Shen Knife, although it has killed several Yin Corpses and ghosts, and has the power of the underworld, its own material is average. ”
"You'd better go to the Treasure Pavilion and sell the Dark Blade and exchange it for a Slashing Sword. ”
Cheng Yuan nodded.
Incorporating the power of the gods into the forging process of the divine weapon can maximize the material of the weapon.
And the Shen Shen Knife he used costs two hundred taels, and the material may be worth dozens of taels, and it is the power of the underworld that the ghost thing has to kill the ghost the day after tomorrow, and the material of the weapon has not changed much.
The Slashing Knife forged by the Heavenly Imperial Division uses a lot of cherished ores and materials, and the cost is about two or three hundred taels of silver, and it is forged by integrating the power of the Divine Force, and the material of the divine weapon has undergone the greatest transformation, far surpassing his Dark Knife.
His strength has improved extremely quickly, and the material of the Swooken Knife may not take long.
While speaking, Huo Dao and Cheng Yuan had already arrived at the side gate of the Heavenly Imperial Guard.
The entrance is divided into the main gate and the side door.
Cheng Yuan once passed by the main gate of the guard, and the majesty and majesty were awe-inspiring. Usually, it is divided into serious and big things, and it is generally not opened.
And this side of the door, said to be "side", is also extremely atmospheric and wide, and there are several unicorn statues on each side, which are said to have the effect of suppressing ghosts and eliminating evil spirits.
Huo Dao and Cheng Yuan were not the clothes of the Heavenly Imperial Division, and before they entered the door, they were already greeted by the Heavenly Imperial Division's soldiers on both sides and asked, "Who are you waiting for?
Huo Dao casually took out a token from his bosom and shook it in front of him, and the soldier was immediately shocked and respectfully said, "See Lord Heavenly Soldier!"
Several soldiers next to him also bowed and saluted.
"This is the person I recommended, called Cheng Yuan, you notify Qin Si and arrange a place for him. Huo Dao instructed.
"Yes!" That day, the imperial priest responded to the order, and Huo Dao turned his head to Cheng Yuan and said, "I still have something to do, you can do it yourself." ”
"Thank you, Lord Huo. In front of others, Cheng Yuan also changed his name.
Then, Huo Dao left in a hurry, and Cheng Yuan followed the imperial priest of this day and entered the guard all the way.
On this day, the imperial secretary and the guards occupied a huge area, and they walked for a while before they arrived at a place.
Entering the door, the imperial priest seemed to go to report to the official that day, and then took something, so he continued to take Cheng Yuan forward until he came to a courtyard.
"Brother Cheng Yuan, this is your residence, this is the key. The Heavenly Imperial Priest handed over a token-like thing to Cheng Yuan.
"This is?" Cheng Yuan took it in surprise, and the token was engraved with the word "heaven", which was heavy and made of fine iron.
The Heavenly Imperial Priest took the token, pressed it into a depression in the door, and then pressed and twisted, and suddenly, the courtyard door opened.
"This token is not only the key to open the door, but also the certificate for you to enter and exit the Heavenly Imperial Division, Brother Cheng Yuan. ”
"There is a house over there, if Brother Cheng Yuan lives in any inconvenient place, you can go there to find Steward Zhang. ”
He returned the token to Cheng Yuan.
"Thank you. Cheng Yuan said to him.
"Where, Brother Cheng Yuan has become a strong martial artist at a young age, and he has been recommended by Master Huo, and his future is immeasurable. The Heavenly Imperial Priest said with a smile, and then left with his hands gone.
Cheng Yuan saw him go away, so he entered the courtyard.
This courtyard is about a few zhang long and wide, and it is spacious, and there are two rooms in it, both of which are quite clean and tidy, and all living things are complete.
Cheng Yuan just walked around, he didn't have much on him now, so he didn't need to store it, and remembered that he was going to change a slashing knife, so he closed the door and went out of the guard all the way.
In this Youhe County, all precious treasures for sale must be inseparable from the Treasure Pavilion.
The Treasure Pavilion is a place for the precious treasure trading set up by the extremely powerful Heavenly Business Alliance in various parts of Qingzhou.
It is said that even outside the vast Qingzhou, the forces of the Heavenly Merchants Alliance are also extremely widespread.
In fact, such a powerful Heavenly Business Alliance is also inseparable from the inextricable connection with the Heavenly Imperial Division.
Divine weapons and armor such as the Soul Slashing Sword, the Soul Destroying Sword, the Soul Breaking Spear, and the Imperial Soul Armor were forged by the Heavenly Imperial Master Craftsman Department and spread to mortal warriors in the world.
And these divine soldiers and armor, except for some of them, are directly issued by the Heavenly Imperial Division. Like many scattered warriors and family warriors, almost all of them are purchased from the Treasure Pavilion in various places.
Although the Treasure Pavilion is a business alliance, it naturally exists for profit, but for these divine soldiers and divine armor sold by the Heavenly Imperial Division, it will not add any price, and it is all priced by the Heavenly Imperial Division.
Above Qingzhou, in almost all places, the price of this kind of standard divine soldier and divine armor is uniform.
Such as the sword of the underworld, the price is 1,500 taels of silver.
The Sword of Destruction of the Soul is the same price as the Sword of Slashing the Soul.
The Soul Breaking Spear is more expensive, selling for 1,800 taels of silver.
As for the Imperial Underworld Armor, it is an armor forged by fusing the power of the Netherworld, the material is extremely hard, and it has a restraining effect on ghost attacks, and it is the most expensive, selling for two thousand taels of silver per set.
It is precisely because of the existence of these divine weapons and divine armor that mortal warriors have a certain ability to resist in the face of weak ghosts.
The Treasure Pavilion in Youhe County is not far from Siwei, in the most central area of the county.
There are a variety of top restaurants, art pavilions, and even some elegant tea and tea gardens, etc., and most of the people who come and go are brightly dressed.
Cheng Yuan is in Chengjiazhuang, and he is used to wearing a coarse cloth coat, which looks a little dazzling in the crowd.
However, he is tall and has an extraordinary temperament, and he carries a knife on his back, and the momentum of a faint martial artist makes others look sideways.
Even in Youhe County, the inner strength of the martial artist can be regarded as a remarkable figure.
A few ladies passing by even paid a lot of attention to him.
Such a young and handsome martial artist, even if he came out of those Zhuangzi, he could definitely be called a hero, which made their hearts move slightly.
Cheng Yuan didn't notice this, and went straight to a gorgeous and elegant six-story building that was more than ten zhang high, which was the Treasure Pavilion in Youhe County.
At the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion, there were two beautiful maids standing on each side, smiling at the guests who came and went.
Cheng Yuan was just about to go in, when a maid saw the knife on his back and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "This guest, there are rules in the Treasure Pavilion, all guests who enter the Pavilion cannot carry weapons, and please store the weapons at the door of our Treasure Pavilion, and there are attendants to take care of them." ”
Cheng Yuan was stunned for a moment and explained: "My knife is going to be sold in your pavilion. ”
"Huh?" the maid was a little surprised, came to the Treasure Pavilion to sell knives?
Generally, the treasure pavilion receives goods, which are quite high, and the ordinary swords and swords of two or three hundred taels of silver cannot be seen at all.
"Guest, our Treasure Pavilion, this treasure also has some requirements. The maid reminded euphemistically.
"I'm a divine soldier. Cheng Yuan could only say this.
The maid was taken aback, Divine Soldier, that is blessed with the power of the Underworld, this is not an ordinary cargo.
Several guests passing by around also glanced at Cheng Yuan in surprise when they heard this.
"Guests, please come with me. She immediately saluted, and then led the way for Cheng Yuan.
Cheng Yuan came to the Treasure Pavilion for the second time.
The first time I came, I was with Cheng Yongshi, and that time, Cheng Jiazhuang bought a slashing knife.
At that time, the treasure pavilion was full of dazzling treasures, but Cheng Yuan was stunned, even on the blue star, he had never seen so many rare treasures.
