Chapter 155: The 'Twelve Kings' of Great Chu (2-in-1)
Next, Changkong gave this "The Legend of the Swordsmen of Shushan" to Liuying to watch, but it is a pity that until the bookstore ended the day's business hours, Liuying failed to trigger the plot in "The Legend of the Swordsmen of Shushan".
"We'll go to the bookstore again tomorrow. On the way back to the inn, Changkong suddenly said.
"Master, we only bought two numbers. Hotaru reminded in a whisper.
In order to buy these two exclusive numbers, they had already spent more than 300,000 spirit crystals, and if they went again tomorrow, it would mean spending more than 300,000 more, so that the proceeds they received from the auction would be almost the same in two days.
Changkong sighed, since beating him to practice, it was really the first time he had encountered this kind of situation where the spirit crystal was not enough, the books in the magic bookstore were really magical, but it was also a bottomless pit, and even the power of his Spirit Emperor realm was overstretched, and he couldn't wait to break a spirit crystal into two pieces to use.
"Let's go buy two more, it's about to be the 'Twelve Kings' ten-year resource battle, your brother is already past his age, and the juniors of the Zhang family are all waste materials except for you, if you can get that eighth-order spirit sword, maybe you can fight for a good ranking for the Zhang family this year." ”
Da Chu has twelve kings with different surnames, called 'twelve kings'.
They were all following the Chu overlord when he started his family, until after the establishment of the Chu State, in order to thank these twelve people, the Chu overlord named them the king of the Great Chu with a different surname, known as the twelve kings in history.
In addition to the title, the Overlord of Chu also drew twelve pieces of Spirit Crystal Vein Mine, and announced that as long as Great Chu did not die, these twelve Spirit Crystal Vein Mines belonged to the twelve kings with different surnames.
The so-called Lingjing Vein Mine, as the name suggests, is a mine rich in Lingjing.
Although these twelve spirit crystal vein ores are all mines rich in spirit crystals, their output is also different. Some vein mines can dig up hundreds of millions of spirit crystals a year, while some vein mines can only dig out tens of millions of spirit crystals a year.
As a result, there were also disagreements among the twelve kings about the ownership of this spirit crystal vein mine, after all, everyone wanted to occupy the most productive vein mine.
But this kind of thing, can you grab a good Spirit Crystal Vein Mine just by talking about it? Obviously, it can't, so the 'Twelve Kings' came up with a method, which is to hold an internal resource battle for the 'Twelve Kings' every ten years, and use the final ranking to determine the priority of the major families, and obtain the mining rights of the Spirit Crystal Vein Mine in the next ten years.
For example, if the Zhang family wins the first place in this battle, then the Zhang family can become the first family to choose the vein mine, so that the best spirit crystal vein mine will fall to the Zhang family, and the second place will be the second choice, and so on, the bottom of the ranking can naturally only pick up the remaining spirit crystal vein mine.
The conditions for participating in this internal resource battle of the 'Twelve Kings' must first of all be the descendants of the 'Twelve Kings', both direct and branch-based, and secondly, the age must not exceed thirty years old, as long as these two requirements are met, they can participate in the resource competition of the 'Twelve Kings' and strive for a better Spirit Crystal Vein Mine for their own family.
Zhang Liuying's ancestor is one of the 'twelve kings' of the founding of Great Chu.
And this year, it is the once in a decade the internal resource battle of the 'Twelve Kings', and the time is on January 20, the first day of the Lunar New Year.
So when he heard Changkong mention the internal resource battle of the 'Twelve Kings', Liuying took back the words he wanted to persuade and nodded silently.
There is no doubt about the importance of the 'Twelve Kings' resource war, which will directly affect the rise and fall of the 'Twelve Kings' family in the next decade.
"Master, Liuying, you wait for me. Suddenly, Zhang Yunji's voice came from behind.
The sky and the fireflies stopped.
Zhang Yunji trotted over all the way, caught up with the footsteps of the two, his face was very proud, and said: "Master, don't stay in the inn, my mansion is very big, move over and let's live together." ”
Changkong was silent and continued to walk forward.
Zhang Yunji looked puzzled, asked Liuying, and said, "Liuying, what's wrong with Master?"
"Master may be a little depressed. Hotaru whispered back.
"What's the solution?" Zhang Yunji patted his head, as if he remembered something, and said, "Does Master want my holy beast?" No problem, I'll give it to Master when I go back, anyway, the Holy Beast is useless to me for the time being, and I can't take it to upgrade yet, so it's better to give it to Master." ”
Liuying shook her head and said, "No, how could Master want your holy beast." ”
"Then Master, what's wrong?"
"Last night, Master wanted to take a picture of a mansion. ”
"Then this is a good thing! Which place did you shoot? Is it close to me?" Zhang Yunji looked surprised.
"It's pretty close. Liuyi whispered.
Zhang Yunji slapped his face and said happily: "That's good, it's convenient to get close to the door, I said why didn't I let the master go to my place to live and he didn't respond, I dare to love that I already have it!"
"What Master wants to photograph is Mansion No. 88. ”
"Eighty-eight, eighty-eight is good! Eighty-eight......
......
Although Liuying failed to successfully obtain the eighth-order spirit sword from "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan", the news that the new book of the Magical Bookstore could obtain the spirit weapon had spread throughout Watanabe Town.
On the outskirts of the Nine Mountains, you can see some advanced cultivators everywhere with their little elves to upgrade here.
"Old Lan, how many steps has your little fire horse reached?" asked a cultivator passing by casually.
The cultivator known as Lan Lao smiled, looked at his little fire horse fighting a third-order spirit beast, and said, "Third order, you can be promoted to the fourth order soon." ”
The cultivator who passed by looked surprised and praised: "That's really fast! I think many elves are still hovering between the second and third orders, Lan Lao, your little fire horse is about to rise to the fourth order." ”
Hearing people praise their elves, the smile on the old man's face became even stronger, but he replied modestly: "Where is it, it's already very slow, two days ago, the old man saw a fourth-order little fire dragon, compared with others, my little fire horse is still a little worse." ”
"Lan Lao, being too modest is pride, haha!" The cultivator who passed by couldn't help but tease, but as soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to remember something, and said with a puzzled face: "Lan Lao, I heard that there is a big man's elf who has been stuck on the fourth order for a while, but no matter what, he just can't rise to the fifth order, is there such a thing?"
In Watanabe Town right now, millions of cultivators more or less have their own circles.
For example, the circle of elves is organized by cultivators who have elves, and they often gather together to exchange experiences and experiences in training elves with each other, so it is most convenient for outsiders to inquire about the things in the elf circle.
Lan Lao has his own elves, and naturally belongs to the people in this circle, and he knows far more things than outsiders, listening to the passers-by and cultivators asking, Lan Lao couldn't help but sigh and said: "That's right, there is such a thing, it is said that the elf of that big man has hunted dozens of fifth-order spirit beasts, and the spiritual power in his body has already reached the standard of fifth-order spirit beasts, but his elf has not advanced, and has been staying at the fourth order; ”
The elf tavern is a cultivator who only accepts elves, and it is also a gathering place for elf cultivators, and it is said that the backstage of the elf tavern is the Wantong Chamber of Commerce, and Zhao Xiaodao, the maid of President Gongsun, runs to the elf tavern two times in three days.
"Haven't you found the root of the problem yet?" asked a passing practitioner.
In a few days, it will be the day to enter the world of "Pokemon", and he has already bought the number of that day, planning to go in and capture a pokemon, and then sign up for the Pokemon Championship in a few months, so he is still more concerned about things in the pokemon circle.
Lan Lao shook his head and said, "Because only the elf of that big man has reached the peak of the fourth order, and everyone else is still hovering around the third and fourth orders, I can't analyze what the problem is for the time being." ”
"That's still a real headache. The cultivators who passed by couldn't help but sigh.
"But Lan Lao, have you heard that the Magic Bookstore has released a new book. The cultivator who passed by changed the subject and said.
Lan Lao nodded and said, "Of course I know, Watanabe Town is crazy, are there two yellow quality books, right? One is called "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan", and the other is called "The Art of War". ”
"Yes, these are the two books. The cultivator who passed by nodded and said, "But Lan Lao, do you know, it turns out that the books in the magical bookstore can not only increase cultivation, obtain martial arts, capture elves, but also obtain spiritual weapons. ”
"Obtaining a spiritual weapon?" Lan Lao was a little surprised, this thing is a cultivator's second life, and its importance can be imagined.
"You don't know yet, right?" The cultivator who passed by smiled and said, "Now the town has gone crazy, and today's new book "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" is an eighth-order spirit sword as soon as it appears, and the name is Ziying Sword, which is simply hanging and exploding. ”
"Eighth-Order Spirit Sword!" Lan Lao exclaimed, the white beard on his chin was sucked up by his gasp.
"Hehe, but it's a pity that Miss Liuying didn't succeed in bringing out the purple sword. The words of the passing cultivators had a bit of schadenfreude in them.
"Little Fire Horse, come back. Suddenly, Lan Lao took out the Poké Ball, took the little fire horse back, turned around and ran towards the town.
"Old Lan, where are you going?" said a cultivator who was passing by in surprise.
"Go to the market and buy a number for tomorrow. Lan Lao's voice floated from afar, but only an afterimage remained.
Something like this happened all over Watanabe Town constantly, and the title of the book "The Legend of the Swordsmen of Shushan" also began to spread, and overnight, millions of cultivators knew that there was a spiritual weapon in this "Legend of the Swordsmen of Shushan", as long as everyone could clear the plot tasks in the book, they could take out an eighth-order spirit sword!
So much so that the sound of buying the next day's exclusive number was heard again in the trading market that night, and the price rose gradually.
Then Changkong's face was even darker.
Yesterday two exclusive numbers cost 350,000, today it cost 500,000!
It rose by 150,000 in one day!
......
Early the next morning, the long street in front of the magical bookstore was already crowded with people, all of them to see if anyone could enter the world of "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" today and take out the eighth-order spirit sword.
The same as opening the door, collecting tickets, and entering the house.
But today a special number appeared, a woman in a red robe.
She didn't choose the "Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" with all the priorities, but continued to take the "Art of War", and the group of people who read it were a little inexplicable.
"Could it be that the "Art of War" has any unknown effect, and it is more important than the eighth-order spirit sword?" The cultivators inside and outside the bookstore looked at the red-robed woman approaching the private room with the "Art of War" with a puzzled expression.
"It's a pity it's in a private room, otherwise we might have been able to see something. A practitioner sighed.
Reading in a private room is a bit more expensive, but it is better to keep it confidential, no matter what you understand inside, you can't hear movement outside.
It's not like sitting in the lobby of a bookstore reading a book, the martial arts skills are fine, there are no special effects, just hold back after comprehending it, and others can't see anything.
And those cultivators who can occasionally go in and catch the elves are unlucky, not only do they know what kind of elves you have obtained, but they can also see your every move in the book, and guess your true cultivation from your physique and the degree of reaction.
If the cultivation is high, it will be counted, but if the cultivation is low... , the end is only to get out of the bookstore and be blocked, either hand over the elves, or wait for death.
This kind of thing has happened a lot in Watanabe Town in the past month.
The number of cultivators who died at the hands of assassins was not a hundred, but eighty.
Not to mention those cultivators who have leveled up with elves in the Nine Mountains, they have to be assassinated from different directions every day. So the current Watanabe Town, which seems to be prosperous, is actually extremely chaotic.
Today's "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan", since the red-robed woman with a special number was not chosen, then the ending naturally fell into the hands of Changkong.
Without him, the main thing is that the strength of the sky is there, and you have to rob him, maybe you can rob him, but it's impossible to say whether you can see the sun tomorrow.
Although the spirit sword is good, it must also be held with a life.
"Hotaru, you continue. Changkong handed "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" to Liuying, and he ran to look through the books on the blue shelf, trying to find a book that he was interested in to read.
"Hmm. "Liuying naturally knows that this may be her last chance, if she can't seize the opportunity, the eighth-order spirit sword can basically say goodbye to herself.
Open the pages of the book, turn to the place I saw yesterday, Liu Ying looked at it seriously, and tried her best to substitute herself into the book, making herself a character in the book, and feeling the world in "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan".
......
"I said you two, is your understanding so low?" Ma Feifei looked at Lin Wuchi and Li Beiguo, and couldn't help but complain.
It's the second day of the fuck! The two of them watched it for a day yesterday, and they didn't react at all! If you use understanding to compare intelligence and stupidity, then these two people are the stupidest and stupidest people they have met since Ma Feifei came to this world, and there is no one!
Lin Wuchi and Li Beiguo lowered their heads, not daring to look at Ma Feifei.
Ma Feifei knocked on the table, looked at the two of them with a serious face, and said, "Let me tell you, if you can't see the reason today, don't eat the meal, when you understand it, when you have something to eat." ”
"Shopkeeper, we understand!" Li Beiguo said aggrievedly.
Ma Feifei was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you understand?"
"Don't scare yourself when robbing tombs, it's easy to scare yourself to death. ”
