Chapter 47: The Contest Before the Conference (1)
Three days later, in the attic of a three-story hotel, Tianjiao pointed to a huge square outside the window and said, "Brother Qin, look, that's where the talent show is held. ”
Here you can overlook almost the entire ghost market scene.
"Oh, Brother Jiao is talking about the platform in the square, but it doesn't look like there's anyone!" Qin Cheng also pointed to something similar to a stage in the square.
In the past three days, Qin Cheng has been following Tianjiao around the entire ghost market, learning a lot about the market and the prices of some items, and even the way he spoke was a little more polite.
"Brother Qin, don't worry, wait until the evening is the time when the show really starts, and it is estimated that those people will enter in the afternoon. ”
"Well, you said that this Zhan Luo Sect held a talent conference, what is the explanation of this talent conference? Is it really just a talent competition?" Qin Cheng nodded and immediately asked.
He had a general understanding of the purpose of Zhan Luozong's holding of this talent conference, and when he was in Wanhualou, he heard the previous three monks say it. But I really don't know what the talent show is going to compete in.
"Hehe, Brother Qin, don't laugh, this is a cultivation sect, how can you really compete for any talent, in fact, the comparison is talent and strength, it's just that it's better to say. In fact, this is also a helpless move by Zhan Luo Zong in order to keep his position in the top ten of the Imperial War Alliance!"
Speaking of this, Tianjiao pulled Qin Cheng and said, "Come on, Brother Qin, let's talk while drinking." ”
So saying, the two of them sat down at the table in the room, and then filled their glasses......
"Brother Qin, please!"
"Brother please!"
Two people who are not upright gentlemen, but they pretend to be polite and polite.
"Brother Jiao, what did you just say about the ranking of the Imperial War Alliance?" Qin Cheng drank the wine in his cup and asked Tianjiao.
After Qin Cheng's understanding of this kid in the past three days, he found that he had no other disadvantages except for being obscene and liking to do some strange things.
Tianjiao glanced at Qin Cheng strangely, but he didn't care too much, and opened his mouth to say: "Actually, whether it is the Imperial War Alliance or the Xiuzhen Alliance, they all have their own sect rankings, of course, this ranking is only limited to the top ten. Take our Yizhou's Imperial War Alliance as an example, the first place is Haotianmen, and the tenth is Zhan Luozong. The sects after the top ten are a bit chaotic, especially the country-based sects like the Imperial War Alliance. ”
"Chaos? What's so chaotic, they all have become countries, with their own people and armies, can they still fight with each other?
When Qin Cheng heard this, he directly thought of those perennial war-torn countries in foreign countries in his previous life, could it be that this monk was also like this?
"Hey, Brother Qin, you don't know, monks are absolutely not allowed to fight with ordinary people, let alone restrict the freedom of ordinary people too much. I'm talking about these power sects that are not ranked in the top ten, but there are many of them whose strength is similar to that of the sect ranked tenth, so the Zhan Luo Sect ranked in the top ten is a little embarrassing, and if you are not careful, you are likely to fall out in the next ranking. You must know that if you are not on the ranking list, it can be directly related to the addition of subsequent monks, that is, the long-term development of the sect, once you fall out of the ranking, it proves that the sect has declined and will become more and more decaying. There is no one who chooses a sect that can't keep their ranking!"
Tianjiao's analysis is right, this talent conference is indeed a last resort for the Luo Sect, otherwise their sect leader Luo Teng would not have brought his baby daughter out to host this conference, just to attract more people from scattered cultivators or small sect forces to attach to him.
It sounds good to be a doorman, and what is not good is that Zhan Luozong spends money to support them, but once there is a crisis, then they have to come out to help.
"It's not the same, and the monks who fight for power and profit will also engage in it. Qin Cheng said with disdain.
In his previous life, he had seen enough of it, people fought for money and interests, but he didn't expect that when he came to this world, the same is true of monks who are much more capable than ordinary people.
"Monks are also human beings, whether they are secular emperors or cultivators, they are all for profit and resources. Ordinary people may be for their own power and territory, and monks are for better cultivation resources, and with these resources, they can make themselves reach a higher realm! However, Buddhist monks are not allowed to participate in this talent conference held by the Zhan Luo Sect, otherwise I will also go to join in the fun. ”
Qin Cheng looked at Tianjiao in a daze, don't say it, this kid usually doesn't look at four or six, but he really understands a lot when he speaks.
Thinking of this, Qin Cheng asked Tianjiao curiously, "What about you Buddhist monks cultivating on the mountain?"
"Uh......" Tianjiao was stunned when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he still said: "It's almost the same, it's the same everywhere, but the difference is that we, the Buddhist monks, are not as direct as them, relying on personal chance and strength......
Speaking of this, Tianjiao suddenly changed her words, as if she was not very willing to talk more about this topic, "Brother Qin, let's not talk about this for now, are you interested in gambling?"
"Huh, take a gamble, can you still gamble here?"
Qin Cheng was a little puzzled, and he didn't care too much about him not talking about Buddhist monks, after all, these were not the issues he was thinking about now.
"Of course, many monks, but I am very much looking forward to the young leaders who can be shortlisted this time, you have also signed up, how sure are you about yourself?" Tianjiao asked curiously looking at the former.
Qin Cheng was originally going to stay in the Zhanluo Sect this time, and slowly looked for Han Kexin, and just happened to hold a talent conference this time, so he simply signed up.
"Could it be that this is also done by Zhan Luo Zong?" Qin Cheng didn't answer his question, but asked instead.
"What's more, all the facades of the Imperial War Alliance and the Xiuzhen Alliance in this ghost market will have a handicap, and even some individuals with status and status will make a small profit. ”
"What?"
Qin Cheng was really shocked this time, he controlled the power of a country, and he actually opened a market to gamble, is this country still good?
"Let's go, you'll know when you get there. Tianjiao said and pulled Qin Cheng downstairs.
......
Soon the two of them came to a street full of shops, each with a variety of patterns representing different sect forces at the door.
"This place is the place with the highest concentration of handicaps, are you buying it from the official or in the hands of these private individuals?" Tianjiao pointed to these shops, as well as many people standing at the door of the shops, and said to Qin Cheng.
The so-called official and private, on the road Tianjiao has already explained to Qin Cheng, the official refers to the Zhan Luo Sect and all the sect forces in this ghost city;
"Brother Jiao, I won't tell you that I won't throw too much money on this kind of thing, since you are interested, then if there is no difference between the two, it will be fine?"
Before that, Tianjiao led Qin Cheng and exchanged all the blue-eyed porcupines on his body for spirit stones, a total of more than 300, and exchanged for more than 3,000 spirit stones. These former Qin Cheng originally planned to spend money after looking for Han Kexin, but they didn't plan to spend it indiscriminately.
