November, the ninth day of the first month. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Qin Town, Du Family's Qingfeng Residence, the atmosphere is much more lively than usual, because there are many more people in the house than usual, in addition to Qiao Ximing and Du Tianwen, Wei Lun, White, Huang Liu, Guan Xin, the old people of Heilin Town are also gathered here, and at the same time, there are three sisters and brothers of Wei Hong, as well as another giant man, Fang Jin, standing behind Qiao Ximing and Du Tianwen without saying a word.

Feeling the attitude of the giant man behind him not leaving an inch, Qiao Ximing felt a little headache and persuaded: "Fangjin, you can also sit down." ā€

Fang Jin's head immediately shook up, and his thick fingers pointed back and forth between himself and Qiao Ximing.

"Mother said, benefactor, fangjin, guard!"

It was still a sentence composed of words, but everyone present understood the meaning of the gold, and they all looked at Qiao Ximing with a joking gaze.

Qiao Ximing was helpless, so he simply stopped persuading and swept the people in front of him.

"It's been more than a month since the challenge ended, and I'm bringing you together today, so you should know what it's for, right?"

Du Tianwen was not interested and did not speak, while Wei Lun on the other side had a slight flash in his eyes and spit out four words: "Martial arts and martial arts?"

Qiao Ximing nodded: "On the first day of the lunar month, civil and military talents, this news is now known to everyone in the empire, no one knows, almost all the outstanding ability people in the empire are gathered in the sixteen first-level towns and cities, starting at the minister level, up to the secretary level, all of them are the best among the capable people, all of them are competing for a place on the Wanying list......

On the side, White suddenly interjected: "Qiao Ximing, I have a question!"

Qiao Ximing looked at him, his expression did not change, and he nodded, "You ask." ā€

White frowned and said: "We all know that Chang Mingqi's challenge to upgrade the town and city is actually to prepare for the civil and military performances, but I don't understand the meaning from the imperial capital, as long as you are above the rank of a minister, you can participate in the competition for the place of the Ten Thousand Heroes List, in this case, why do you still have to carry out this challenge, putting the life of the young master of my family in danger!"

"White!" Veren let out a low snort, causing White to stop.

Fang Jin bared his teeth at White and was stopped by Qiao Ximing raising his hand, while Huang Liu and Guan Xin were a little dissatisfied with White's attitude, but they also had some doubts on their faces.

Qiao Ximing was not surprised by White's question, calmly raised the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then said: "Yes, the competition for the Wanying List is indeed as long as the minister level can participate, and I already know this......"

"Then you still ......"

"But!" Qiao Ximing raised his eyes, and his sharp gaze interrupted White's words: "Before that, among the information we have, the list of first-level towns and cities was not a list of thousands of heroes at the beginning, but a thousand heroes!"

Qianjielu!?

Viren frowned, and suddenly understood something.

"Yes, at the beginning, the number of actors that the empire decided to open up in the sixteen first-class towns and cities was not 10,000, but 1,000, only one-tenth of what it is now! To be honest, I don't know why this number has changed, but even if it was like this from the beginning, the challenge will still happen. ā€

"Why?"

"Because of the control of Wan Ying Bang!"

Qiao Ximing and Wei Lun looked at each other, their eyes extremely serious: "We have long expected the sacrifice in the challenge, but even so, the reason why we have to promote the challenge is because only by upgrading to a first-class town can we ensure the number of places. ā€

"It is impossible to take out all the 10,000 places for low-level town and city ability to snatch them. In Qin Town, the family of this town alone directly allocated 9,000 places to the children of their respective families, after all, who doesn't want to cultivate for fame and fortune? And there are only 1,000 places left, leaving up to hundreds of thousands of capable people to compete for, and the number of those with secretary-level abilities exceeds 10,000! White, tell me, which will make your young master more dangerous in the challenge competition or against the secretary-level ability?"

White was stunned for a long time, and finally apologized to Qiao Ximing with a calm face: "I'm sorry, it's White who is too careful." ā€

"Yes, you are only faithful. Looking away from Wei Lun, who had always been silent, Qiao Ximing smiled again: "Moreover, when we are promoted to a first-class town, we can not only ensure the number of places, but also propose transactions with the first-level towns and cities of the other three major domains. ā€

Hearing this, Viren's eyes suddenly flashed: "You mean ......"

"That's right, the Wenwu Pagoda is divided into four cities, and Wei Lun, you can go to the Wenwu Pagoda in Qinglong City to challenge and find a chance to get everything back!"

White looked at Viren in surprise: "Young Master, it's too dangerous to return to Qinglong City now!"

Viren shook his head and stopped White from talking.

"Although it is dangerous in the Wenwu Tower, it comes from the battle between the challengers, and the forces of the outside world will definitely not be able to affect it, and as long as you can pass the trial and obtain the name of the general, even if it is the family of the four major cities, it is impossible to attack you at that time, not to mention the countless opportunities to become stronger in the Wenwu Tower, as well as the ...... of the original incident Clues!"

His eyes flashed, and Wei Lun looked at Qiao Ximing seriously: "This is true!?"

"Do you know the location of the four Wenwu Pagodas?"

Viren frowned, "You mean...... Impossible, it took decades for the Wenwu Pagoda to be built, and Bo ...... That happened just five years ago, how could it be ......"

"Five years ago, did you ever see the existence of the Wenwu Pagoda, or heard anything related to the Wenwu Pagoda?"

Wei Lun was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

"The rumors of the Wenwu Pagoda are just hearsay after all, and they may even be stories created by the four major cities or the imperial capital in order to build momentum. It may be true that the two mansions on the left and right built together, but the appearance of the four civil and military towers was not a hundred years ago at all, but on the first day of the fourth month four years ago, they were uprooted out of thin air in the four cities, and the location where they are located is the former site of Shangguan in Vermilion Bird City and the former site of Beria in Qinglong City......"

ā€œ...... The former site of Oda in Xuanwu City, and the former site of Morgan in White Tiger City. Wei Lun's eyes showed a cold light, and he took the initiative to complete Qiao Ximing's words.

Nine years ago, the Oda family, the first family in Xuanwu City, disappeared overnight and disappeared without a trace; fourteen years ago, the Morgan family, the first family in White Tiger City, was attacked by unknown forces, and the whole family fell, and the people of the White Tiger Domain were panicked for a while.

These two families have almost the same ending as the Shangguan family seven years ago and the Belial family five years ago.

Qiao Ximing nodded, staring at the tea on the table: "So, what ......are your plans?"

"I'll go!" Wei Lun's voice was extremely firm: "Two places in Blue Dragon City, me and White." ā€

Qiao Ximing's eyebrows raised slightly: "Just the two of you, I can change some more places and let you bring some old family members back." ā€

But Wei Lun shook his head and rejected his kindness: "Among the people who escaped from the family at that time, only White has broken through the rank of minister now, even though their loyalty is undoubted, but let them enter the Wenwu Tower, I am afraid that they will only give their lives in vain." And, in the case of me and White, it's less likely to attract attention, which makes it safer. ā€

I have to say that Wei Lun's analysis is very in place, Qiao Ximing just thought about it and agreed with his statement, and then asked as if unintentionally: "How is your inheritance?"

Wei Lun's eyes flashed: "Gao Duan." ā€

Qiao Ximing's eyes narrowed, and Du Tianwen and Huang Liu, who understood as well as him, were shocked in their eyes.

Two months ago, Wei Lun's cultivation had already reached the high level of the soldier level, so the high stage he was talking about now naturally could no longer refer to the soldier level, but to ...... Minister!

In just two months, he not only broke through the minister-level quietly, but also advanced by leaps and bounds, and directly became a high-level ability of the minister-level, far surpassing the cultivation of Qiao Ximing and others.

This incredible breakthrough speed is the terrifying thing about inheritance!

"In that case, I wish you all the best!"

After a brief brief contact between the four eyes, Qiao Ximing looked at Huang Liu with a smile on his side, making the latter's expression stiffen slightly: "Huang Liu, I heard Guan Xin say that you are very interested in the snow scene of the White Tiger Domain?"

Glaring fiercely at Guan Xin, who was looking up at the sky, Huang Liu's expression became flashing, his smile was as ugly as crying, and he said pitifully: "Si Ge, don't listen to his nonsense, the White Tiger Domain is in chaos now, where would I, Huang Liu, be interested in this kind of place......"

But Qiao Ximing seemed to be deaf to his words, took a sip of tea and continued: "The quota for White Tiger City, I have already set it for you, you go with Fangjin and Zheng Xi, I have a task to explain to you." ā€

Huang Liu had a bitter face and nodded reluctantly, but the fang jin behind Qiao Ximing frowned, and said angrily: "Benefactor, fang gold guard!"

Qiao Ximing raised his hand: "Fang Jin, since you want to serve under me, then you must obey my orders, a month later, I want you to protect Huang Liu's safety, can you do it?"

Scratching his head, Fang Jin's expression was a little distressed, and his thick eyebrows and fierce eyes circled around Huang Liu's body several times, and he looked at him in amazement, and after thinking for a long time, he shook his head up and down.

Qiao Ximing smiled faintly, his gaze moved again, and fell on Du Tianwen, who had become lazy again, who used his twin sister Wei Hong's thighs as a knee pillow, and his eyes were already narrowed into a line comfortably.

"Okay, don't look at me! I know you're going to Suzaku City to save your Xiaoxue and leave me here alone to deal with those guys. ā€

Listening to Du Tianwen's extremely casual voice, Qiao Ximing shook his head with a smile: "There is still Uncle Gen in Xuanwu City, but there are many people you have to pay attention to, in addition to the geniuses of other families, the first is Qin Ziyu, and the second is your younger brother...... But I've already thought of a way to help you find a way to relieve you a lot of stress when the time comes. ā€

"I know, I know, don't worry, although you abandon me, I won't scold you!"

Simply ignoring Du Tianwen, who was not in tune at the moment, when Qiao Ximing turned his head again, he noticed the somewhat strange gazes of the others, obviously a little concerned about his statement that he was going to Vermilion Bird City.

But he chuckled lightly and didn't explain much.

At this time, Guan Xin said next to him: "Si Ge, then I ......"

Qiao Ximing waved his hand, and his eyes fell on Guan Xin's body with some seriousness: "You don't have to participate in the civil and military performance, I have another important matter to hand over to you!"

Guan Xin was stunned.

Is there anything more important than civil and military performances now?

"The Qin Zhen army controlled by the head of the Frank family, I want you to go to Si Ge and complete a special mission!"
