Chapter 932. White Dragon
At that moment, there was an uproar. The exclamation first sounded from the scholar near the fragment of the stone stele, and then spread wildly like a raging fire!
"Heavenly Rank!"
"Heavenly Rank Stone!"
"The stone tablet of the heavenly list on Gunan Mountain in Haijiao is broken!"
"Oh my God!"
The exclamations gradually turned into shouts of fear, and the panicked crowd was about to turn into a riot, at this time, the blood droplets hidden in the crowd began to fan the flames and guide public opinion, and the Royal Forest Army, for the first time in a month, surrounded the square outside the noon gate, they were armed with shields and heavy hammers, apparently taking a defensive posture, clearly to prevent the assassins from taking the opportunity to ram the holy car, not to slaughter the citizens.
Silver Dust's expression was solemn, his eyes were cold, and he saw the people in the crowd, who were bright or dark, with frustration and fear in their expressions.
It was the first time he had seen the northerners show genuine fear when facing the emperor of the southern kingdom.
He knows that being able to smash the Tianbang Stone Tablet is really terrifying to the people of the world, the Tianbang is actually a product of the Gangfeng rules, and the mechanism of formation is very mysterious and weird, like a god-given artifact, it should belong to the lower artifact or something, this kind of thing should not be destroyed by manpower, but I think that the Divine Seat of All Things is also half of the grass sword, and I think that this Tianbang is broken, or it may cater to the world's major events, maybe it is related to the changes in the sky five years ago.
The shattering of the heavenly list was announced, and the shock began from the square and spread to the entire city, and Silver Dust believed that in a few months, it would start from Pershing City and spread to the world.
"The heavenly list abdicates, the white dragon is out, all the people in the world, should also work hard to win the first, I decided to take the iron mountain as an opportunity to update the list every ten years, so that the world's talents can get a fair chance to fight! The Ministry of Rites is still the book Pan Renmei!"
"The minister is here!"
"In the future, you will be responsible for the update and maintenance of the White Dragon List, don't let me down!"
"The minister's liver and brain are smeared, and he will not give up!"
"Alright, that's it. I personally supervised the Pilgrimage Assembly of All Nations, and it was generally because of such a major event as the birth of the White Dragon List......" After the emperor said this, he stood up from the temporary dragon chair. "I still have too many things to ask, and the mess in Chongwang's Mansion is still waiting for me to clean up. Silver Dust, it's up to you next!"
"Minister, I will not disappoint the emperor. Silver Dust said respectfully. The Spirit Emperor looked at him and nodded visibly.
......
The Iron Mountain Conference, with iron as the mountain. It is not only a competition, but also an assessment. Its core content, that is, in an hour's time, limited tools, materials, drawings, forging workpieces or utensils that meet the requirements, and then let the judges judge, according to the grade to determine the results, and then according to the results to rank the ranking, from the first to the hundredth, it is the forging master on the White Dragon list. This kind of competition is like a scientific examination, a tool, challenging all the princes, who does the best, who is the master, the master, compared to the scientific examination papers, to be fair, fair infinitely many times, because of the grade difference, anyone with a hand touch, poured into the body of the body that has not formed a gangfeng, you will know at once, Tong Su is not deceiving, can not be fake.
The assessment at the Iron Mountain Conference, regardless of rank, only focuses on grades, but will be divided into different groups according to the rank, the white dragon list actually has three ways, Xuanqi Dao, Spiritual Dao, Treasure Dao, for different groups of people, the list of Xuanqi Dao is naturally the leader of the world's forging.
The world forging, heavy grade and secondary rank, any forging master will never joke with the grade of the work, the concept of being able to be in the middle grade and never inferior to the grade, is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but the forging way, manpower will eventually be exhausted, the top grade divine soldiers, no matter what the rank, are already the limit of ordinary people today (except for the silver dust of the divine creator), if you make treasures at the Iron Mountain Conference, it is definitely auspicious from the sky, and the name of the white dragon list is set.
After the Spirit Emperor released the news of the birth of the White Dragon List, he was a little tired, after all, he almost didn't tire his son of heaven into a heavenly ghost yesterday, and he hasn't eased up today, so how can he have the spirit to watch people strike iron? So he pulled the silver dust, and gave him a few words of encouragement, and patted him on the shoulder, and then almost in front of the people of the whole country, he turned around and got into Luanyu, and ordered to return to the palace, only to give countless Perxing citizens who came to pay their respects to him, a chic golden back......
The Iron Mountain Conference, not only forging, but also military chess, lion dance and other game programs, but unlike in the past, the opening ceremony of the Iron Mountain Conference was made to the afternoon, military chess, lion dance and other programs, can only be postponed to tomorrow, but the autumn lantern festival in the evening can be held as usual. The Autumn Lantern Festival is both a lamp and a city, and how many Pershing subjects have to wait for some overseas specialties at night.
The real boring iron, in fact, not many people want to watch it.
As soon as the emperor left, the people who joined in the fun walked almost one-eighth, and the rest of the people either moved Mazha to chat on the spot, or went shopping idlely, most of them have a Western pocket watch, or an hourglass and other timing equipment that can be carried with them, and there are also local tyrants holding automatic magic soldiers to keep time. On the tower of the noon gate, the coats of the Ministry of Internal Affairs diligently moved to the soft seats, waiting for the silver dust and the oldest and most famous old forgers in the blacksmith street to sit down, and at the same time, there were some Langzhong of the six departments who presided over the ceremony of the Ministry of Rites Lang Lang Hua Tiegan, on behalf of the authority of the imperial court The Ministry of Industry Shangshu Du Shimo, and the person in charge of the guards, the cold-faced and cold-tongued criminal department waiter Jia Siwen, these three people are on official business, and the other six Lang Lang, the waiter, and even the Shangshu of the household department, etc., are all because the official is reasonable, and the guards dare not stop them, just after the emperor left, they also went up to the city tower together, and were served by the subordinates。
At this time, Zhang Baisheng ran over, relied on the waist card of Shenwu Hou to rush away from the guards, and arrived in front of Yinchen, with the virtue of a small man, but many bureaucrats present were surprised when they saw this person. "?!" Hua Tiegan exclaimed first, and other officials also pointed at him, after all, he, a storyteller, was actually very famous in Pershing, especially Zhang Baisheng was actually from a noble background, and he also served as a petty official!
At this time, Sven is a scholar who is greater than the sky, and he has actually become a house slave of a magician?
But no one laughed at it, what's wrong with lifting people? In front of the lectures of the Hanlin Academy, it is probably the same as a baby who can just walk, and in front of the master of Jinshi, he can naturally only be regarded as a child.
But the problem is that Yinchen is several years younger than Zhang Baisheng, and the picture of this servant serving his master is really ......
"Master Hou, you don't seem to be formally equipped with a small servant...... Hua Tiegan is a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, naturally he understands etiquette very well, the regular little guy he said is the male talent who really has a cheap status, and Zhang Baisheng, even if he escaped from the Demon Pavilion, is still famous, and his case of killing evil and Fuliang has long been pardoned, after all, the clan of the local tyrant and demon was found by the emperor to find a reason to raid the house.
"Say it again. Silver Dust stared intently at the square below at this time, while listening to an old forger respectfully explain the "rules of the game", the old forger's eyes were full of worship, he was now a person who had close contact with the gods.
Yinchen's status in the forging world is equivalent to that of Kong Qiu in the education world and Li Er in Taoism, after all, the matter of building treasured divine weapons in batches is much more serious than giving away people with a large amount of light weapons.
“...... The Iron Mountain Conference because the materials and tools are limited, so the things created, the rank can be almost limited, the key depends on the grade, the grade on the market is divided into four grades, lower, middle, upper, treasure, just roughly divided, in fact, the grade is a subdivision into equal, zero waste products, one to ten lower grades, ten to hundreds of middle grades, hundreds to thousands of other top grades, thousands to thousands of treasures, more than 10,000 grades...... That's no way to say, in fact, the [Juyuan-style Feng Shui Silence Technique] has measured a maximum of 10,000 grades, but throughout the ages, 9,000 grade things have never appeared!"
"That means that as long as you reach the level of more than 1,000 grades, you will definitely win?"
"Yes, my lord!" the old forging master replied respectfully: "The Millennium Iron Mountain Society, it is not impossible to have more than a thousand ranks, but it has appeared at most six times, and there are still people cheating on the sixth time......"
"And cheating?!" Yinchen's eyes were cold: "In such a solemn field, you should be executed by Ling Chi!"
"According to the laws of our empire, cheating and deception at the Iron Mountain Meeting, etc., cheating in the same palace as the punishment, and martial arts for personal gain, should be punished with cooking and cannon branding, not Ling Chi, and Ling Chi is only implemented for those who rebel against a certain law. Jia Siwen's gloomy voice came, there was no undulating tone, it was like a ghost's whisper.
"He's not Jasven, he's Mesven!" said Silver Dust, continuing to study the rules with the old blacksmith. "Feng Shui silence technique is not easy to fool, and that person's cheating method was also quite weird that time, but we didn't wait for it, that kind of cheating method was then prevented, and now, I don't think it will happen again......"
"Why do I think there are still people who are not afraid of death today?"
"My lord, in fact, every time the Iron Mountain Club has a person who takes risks, but it is one thing to cheat, and it is another thing to cheat without being discovered...... The results of Feng Shui silence will be re-tested by the Ministry of Engineering in the future. ”
Yinchen nodded and looked at Du Shimo: "Are you ready?"
Du Gongbu showed a sincere smile: "Everything is ready, it's just a word from the master." "This Du Gong Department, in fact, is also a forger Gavin, very similar to Yinchen, but unfortunately did not reach the height of Yinchen, therefore, he preconceived of Yinchen as this senior, between words, it is inevitable to worship more, and the meaning of worship is not disguised, and there is no flattery and pretentiousness. Yinchen looked at him and felt that he was a fair and upright person, even if he was not on the right path, he was also a worthy befriender.
"Then don't waste time, Du Gongbu, I, ah no, this official...... Announcing the Showa 9th Iron Mountain Festival, start now!"
Silver Dust's voice was really not loud, maybe a little higher than a whisper, but his voice could actually sound in the ears of everyone in the city at the same time.
This is something that only legendary magicians can do.
The first second he finished speaking, he saw that the people in the entire square below were stunned, obviously frightened by this sudden "whisper", Du Gongbu didn't think anything of it, and thought it was because he was sitting on the city tower, and the surroundings were relatively quiet and solemn, so he gave an order to him as silver dust. Therefore, after a second, he stood up first, filled his throat with vitality, exhaled and said, "Iron Mountain Conference, start now!"
At this time, the petty officials of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Rites came to their senses, and hurriedly built a stove and set off fireworks, and arranged for the "candidates" to fight with the pungent smell of fireworks.
From the morning, a large area was vacated in the center of the square outside the noon gate, surrounded by the people of the Imperial Forest Army, and on the phalanx of twenty by twenty, there were four hundred small charcoal stoves, and next to the stove, there were small square tables provided by the officials, small square stools, square tables, calipers, square rulers, scales, funnels, large and small crucibles, and all kinds of thick-walled ceramic vessels, but there was nothing inside. Towards the beginning, when Yinchen and the old blacksmith were discussing the rules, Lang Zhong of the Ministry of Engineering ordered to fill some utensils, including cold charcoal, hot charcoal (special charcoal that provides high temperature), sulfur, several common extracts, a large vat of cooling water, as well as raw fire (low-quality ointment-like fuel), ice paste (special strong coolant), etc., in short, it is much more complicated than the four treasures of the study during the scientific expedition.
After these things were put on the table, the people of the Qin Tianjian of the Internal Affairs Office came up to inspect it for the first time, which was called the "miscellaneous material inspection", which was the most time-consuming and laborious inspection, and the people of the Qin Tianjian of the Internal Affairs Office were the most loyal officials to the emperor in the imperial court, so the inspection was really meticulous.
The Qin Tianjian of the Seventh Dynasty, which is quite the "inner factory" of the Gabroyle Ming Dynasty, is more eerie and terrible than the blood drops and sticky rods, but this department is only responsible for the discipline inspection and supervision at the national level, as well as the inspection of the examination venues held in Pershing City, as well as the safety of the emperor, etc., and does not have the ability to go out to inspect. They are equivalent to the product of the combination of fortune tellers, Ouchi masters and iron-faced and selfless discipline inspection commissions, although they are classified as secret agencies, but their ability to detect intelligence may not even be as good as standing spies.
The Seventh Dynasty, after all, is not a dynasty where spies rule the country, the real highest spy organ of the country is just the sticky pole, and the people at the sticky pole are only responsible for news, torture and killing, protecting the emperor and checking for fraud, so there is no head of the sticky pole to watch this excitement today.
After a long inspection, the Ministry of Industry came to fill in the "main material", this main material is nothing else, even if a boxy piece of cold iron, or to be precise, just a piece of preliminarily processed ore, the various components of the ore, each piece is different, especially to test the contestants' eyesight and finesse, and there is no possibility of copying others to succeed. After the cold iron was put away, the members of the Whistleblowing Department of Qin Tianjian came over again and carefully sifted through it, which was called "inspection", to carefully check whether someone had contacted the Ministry of Industry to think that the officials had cheated and had done tricks in the materials.
