Chapter 134: Movement
"What are those people doing?" Zheng Jia was condescending, and he could see that many people were gradually moving closer to a billboard, and some people tore off the notice and read it aloud: "Tell the contestants who want to participate in the battle of sunset, all players who want to participate in the battle of sunset should come to the sunset gladiatorial arena one month in advance to register, and the battle of sunset will be carried out one month in advance. ”
"Why is the Battle of Sunset a month in advance? This is not the time when the traffic in Sunset City is at its highest, if you do this, won't the money you earn be greatly reduced, the city lord can't even think of this?"
"Who knows, it's none of our business anyway, and no matter how much money you make, it won't go into my pocket anyway. ”
"That is, it's none of my business, I don't have to worry about it, it's better to plant the field well and do a good job in the business if I think so much. ”
For a while, people talked about it one after another, the most obvious of which was those who planned to participate in the Battle of Sunset and were not outstanding, as soon as the date was advanced, that is, the time for them to prepare became nervous, and the probability of losing prematurely would be increased, and it was definitely not worth it for the experienced to spend so much money and get a defeat.
Of course, most of the participants are on the double mountain, these double mountains have no strength to enter the semi-finals, most of them are rushing to the experience, and a small number of people may be chasing the enemy, wanting to understand the grievances through this life and death agreement, and there are also some people with unknown purposes gathered here, and Zheng Jia and the three are obviously the former.
"A month in advance? That means that the Battle of Sunset will be held on the first day of the lunar month, and if it goes on like this, we will have to sign up on the twenty-third to twenty-fifth of the winter month, and the twenty-sixth to twenty-ninth pre-selection, it seems that there is only a little more than a month left for us to cultivate. Zheng Jia thought about it, and after calculating the good days, he flew down to the eaves, woke up Fei Xuan, Hong Mingtian, and told them about it.
When the two of them were woken up, they were still sleepy-eyed, but once they heard Zheng Jia say that the date was pushed forward, it was as if a thunderbolt from a sunny day hit their heads, and they immediately woke up. Fei Xuan is only at the strength of the Triple Mountain Star Level now, and if he wants to achieve good results in the Battle of Sunset, it is tepid in terms of this strength.
And Hong Mingtian is even worse, although the strength of the peak of the two mountains cannot be advanced to the three mountains, but the ghost avoidance gun he used is not very skilled, and now that the date is advanced, he can't be so lazy anymore, and after the two of them hurriedly used breakfast, they all went to cultivate from all over the place. As for Zheng Jia, he was not in a hurry to cultivate, but was in a hurry to find the thing that had always cared about him.
"This big brother, how do you get to the City Lord's Mansion?" Zheng Jia left the Dongtu Inn and found a vendor who sold baked cakes, people like this who do small business are generally locals, and he was right to ask, "Have you seen the Bead Tower there, you go forward, cross a small bridge and turn left about three hundred meters away to the entrance of the Bead Tower, and from the exit of the Bead Tower, go forward two hundred meters to the back door of the City Lord's Mansion." ”
"Okay, then please give me two biscuits. Zheng Jia said politely, in return, I'll give you a business.
Along the way, Zheng Jia didn't understand how to think about it, in the memory of his previous life, the city lord's mansion was obviously away from the sunset gladiatorial arena for a long time, how could he become behind the bead tower in this life? After thinking about it and never getting an answer, Zheng Jia didn't dwell on this issue for too long, and began to think about another question.
"The City Lord's Mansion suddenly advanced the date by a month, does it have something to do with that thing? If so, then the three of us brothers won't stay in this Sunset City for too long, I hope I'm thinking too much. While walking and thinking and eating the baked cake in his hand, Zheng Jia had already arrived at the main entrance of the Yuanzhu Pagoda, which was not as lively as outside in the early morning, only a few cultivators sat cross-legged with each other, absorbing the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth.
The thing Zheng Jia thought in his heart was called Absorbing Yuan Qi Stone, which was a huge, yellowing ore, this kind of ore was more than ten times rarer than Wenyang Stone, and it was an existence that could not be found, and it could be bought at the lowest price at the auction for five million taels of silver, which was a sky-high price.
Some people may ask, how can a piece of ore be sold at such a high price, is this thing rarer than diamond? The answer is obvious, this thing is not comparable to diamond in hardness, smoothness is not comparable to quartz pebbles, and beauty is not comparable to jade, and its only function is for people to absorb its vitality.
That's right, it's Yuanqi. The Absorbing Vitality Stone is a kind of ore that can store the Vitality of Heaven and Earth, it can be said that it is a high-level version of the Wenyang Stone, a Absorbing Vitality Stone weighing three hundred and sixty-five kilograms, that is, one cubic meter, is enough to supply the people under the Five Mountains to continuously absorb it for twenty years, and this is the prize of the Battle of Sunset hosted by the City Lord's Mansion.
Of course, when it is said to be a prize, it does not refer to the reward of absorbing the Yuan Qi Stone, but to absorb the Yuan Qi Stone for one year as a reward to the person who won the first place in the Sunset War, then some people will ask, since the absorption of the Yuan Qi Stone is a treasure that the people of the City Lord's Mansion have found, but why don't they hide it and absorb it themselves?
This is the characteristic of absorbing the vitality stone, although it has the ability to store the vitality of heaven and earth, but people above the five mountains want to absorb the vitality in it, it is almost a fool's dream, if the Wenyang stone can only be absorbed by people with a system like Xiao Yu, then this absorption of the vitality stone is only for people below the five mountains.
Some people are also going to say again, since this thing only has an effect on the people of the Siju Mountain, then why doesn't the City Lord's Mansion hide him and leave it for the people with strength and potential in the Mansion to absorb it, as long as the City Lord's Mansion gets a few more Wuju Mountains out, it will be stronger than anything else.
Yes, that's true, but you also know that this is the City Lord's Mansion, not a family like the Zheng family and the Sima family in Bingxin City, most of the people in the City Lord's Mansion are not related by blood, that is to say, they are just working in the City Lord's Mansion, and the job can be thrown away at any time, but what if the internal personnel are fattened and they are turned against the water?
Therefore, the city lord Wan Qiyou set up this sunset gladiatorial arena and the battle of sunset, firstly, they can make money, and secondly, they are the organizers anyway, Wan Qiyou's son Wan Jianyi has also won the crown for several years, and the fat water does not flow to outsiders Tian in Wanjia can be said to be vividly interpreted.
Zheng Jia played two roles alone, and after smoothing through the memories of his previous life in his mind, he finally came to the back of the City Lord's Mansion. He came this time to see if the absorbing vitality stone was still there, of course he didn't really come for it, the current Zheng Jia was only at the level of Erzhong Mountain, and even the four gatekeepers in the Sunset Gladiatorial Arena couldn't beat it, let alone in the City Lord's Mansion.
Hiding in a small forest that was still hidden, Zheng Jia summoned Qiu Xin, who hadn't come out to move his muscles for a long time, and said to it: "Little guy, go to that mansion to see where there are the least people, go and come back quickly, don't delay." After Qiu Xin heard this, he seemed to be able to understand what he said, and immediately went to the City Lord's Mansion.
Of course, the current Qiu Xin has grown tall to the position of Zheng Jia's knees, his whole body is covered with gray fur, and his tail is cocked, and he looks no different from an ordinary dog from a distance, and it is most suitable to be a "sentinel".
After some waiting, Qiu Xin finally turned back, seemed to be a little low, lowered his head, and let out a low whining sound, Zheng Jia squatted down and stroked its head, it can be seen from Qiu Xin's behavior that the guards in the City Lord's Mansion seem to be very strict, otherwise it would not be so lost.
Putting Qiu Xin into the wrench, Zheng Jia looked at the huge mansion in the distance, well, in the distance, by the way, how could I forget this stubble!
As if thinking of something, Zheng Jia immediately climbed to the top of the Bead Tower, and after a while, he climbed to the eighteenth floor, like a monkey, blocking the sunlight on his forehead with his palm, and looked condescendingly at the city lord's mansion.
There are a few people in the mansion who come and go, and there is no abnormal state, but they can't find the city lord of Sunset City, Wan Qiyou, maybe he is busy, Zheng Jia waited patiently in a fence, but unexpectedly, there was a gust of cold wind behind him, and Zheng Jia's hair stood on end.
Turning around suddenly, Zheng Jia's back was empty, and the cold wind disappeared without a trace the moment Zheng Jia turned around, "Strange, did I hit a ghost in broad daylight?" Scratching his head, Zheng Jia turned around again to look at the city lord's mansion, and the people in the compound were already gone......
"I shouldn't really hit a ghost, right? There's no reason, I don't do anything bad and I'm a young man with strong blood, how can I hit a ghost?" frowned slightly, Zheng Jia's soul was released, not to mention that there were people around, even if there was not even a dog, of course, this can't count the one inside Zheng Jia's wrench.
However, what reassured Zheng Jia was that the people from the City Lord's Mansion came out of the courtyard one after another, as if they had just done something, but what was the use of monitoring them like this, acting like a voyeur, the most important thing was to absorb the Yuan Qi Stone.
Then, to Zheng Jia's eyes, eight sturdy men slowly moved around a boulder towards a house. The speed of the eight big men was a few points slower than the old lady walking on crutches, and Zheng Jia, who was watching from a distance, would have thought that they were standing still there if it weren't for his excellent eyesight.
"Wait, that stone is...... How could there be such a big piece of this!" Zheng Jia's eyes widened suddenly, he had seen the Absorbing Yuan Qi Stone in his previous life, this and that were the same as that, and there was no difference between them......
