Episode 157 The book city is in the first place, and the city lord's mansion has a dispatch
So there was a sect on the stage that began to report aloud the number and color of the books in each basket according to the meaning of judging the cultivators. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info is the same dry, the same no waves. Only the disciples who participated in the Dabi steward in the audience were sweating in their nervous palms.
The rate at which the door reported was normal, one after another, and there was a breath of joy or frustration from below. It's just that for a while, the disciple suddenly stopped, and the onlookers and the disciples who participated in the competition sensed the pause in the sound of the Menzi reciting the results of the newspaper, and everyone raised their heads and watched the stage to judge the cultivators, only to see those old men talking to each other, as if there was some dispute, they were all surprised!
"Hmm, what's going on? There's an argument? Why?"
"Who knows?"
The five cultivators argued for a long time, and the arrogant cultivator on the stage squinted his eyes, and then said coldly, the five cultivators nodded and gave the result to Menzi, who said loudly:
"No. 19 Xiujia, four jade books, ten jade slips of special-shaped books. β
Boom! There was an uproar in the audience.
"How could it be? There are only seven or eight jade slips in front of the masters, how can there be fourteen jade slips on this nineteenth?
"It's just counting, how can you be mistaken?"
"Didn't you hear Menzi say that there are four jade slips and ten jade slips in the shape-shaped books?"
"Hmph, that's also a book of jade slips? Besides, the ancients once made another strange-shaped jade slip book! Isn't there also a collection in the secret cave of my Hai Clan Bookstore?"
"That's right!"
"Hmph, I think this person is just making a fuss!
"Hehehe, why don't you also get a few alien jade books? Could it be that Brother Tu is afraid of comparing this person?"
"Who's afraid of him?"
The sound of the sect reporting the number had not ended, and the cultivators had already known the result.
"The first place this year may not be the masters anymore!"
"Hmph, how do you know that alien jade is not a master's handiwork?"
"Hmph, has there ever been a master who made a book of alien jade slips before? With everyone's ability and pride, where would you do such a booing thing? Think about which master of the book maker would be so bored as to make that kind of alien jade slip to attract everyone's attention?"
"And who could this person be?"
All of a sudden, whether it was the onlookers or the participating warlocks, they all looked at the dozens of people in the arena. After Menzi reported the number of jade slips in the basket of the participating cultivators, the families dispersed, waiting for the results to be announced. At this time, the news of something new in the Book Pavilion had already spread.
In the afternoon, the gold list of the Book Pavilion was posted, and the cultivators of the Book Pavilion, whether they were apprentices or other masters, were all actively surrounding to see the results.
"As expected, this alien jade has won the first name! Ahhγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»h
A cultivator shouted loudly.
"Ohioku, it seems to be the new warlock standing here. β
"That's where it came from, why haven't you seen it before?"
"It's a cultivator who has recently been dispatched to the Book Pavilion, and it seems that there are some doorways! It is said that it is protected by the Lord of Kong. β
A well-informed person has already reported this person's resume.
"No wonder!"
"What do you mean?"
"Hmph, the city lord of the Shuge stammered Kong, and naturally riveted his face for him. β
"Well, I should be able to think about things like this. After all, it has the Kong City Lord as the backer. β
"Also, I bet that this book city competition should have a place for this person. β
"Hmph, Shushan Island is not up to the Kong City Lord's family! Dabi has to pay attention to justice and fairness after all, right?"
"What are you doing with so much energy, let's wait and see!"
Jian Chuan stayed in his own work house, but his mental power was through the large array of houses, and he had already made the gossip of this cultivator clear. But he just smiled, not even a little unhappy! This also made his own family have a trace of doubt!
"Could it be that with my cultivation as a breakthrough, my state of mind has also improved? In the face of criticism, Gu Jing is calm and calm!"
On the second morning, the chief steward of the Book Pavilion gathered a group of cultivators and set up a position under the high platform. The arrogant overhaul lowered his eyes coldly, waiting for the chief steward to make a speech, he took a few steps forward, took out several magic bags in his hand, and then said slowly:
"The top three in the book-making pavilion will participate in the bookstore competition! The winner of this time will be rewarded with cultivation materials and materials, and they will be in this law bag, and you can come up and take it. β
So Jianchuan and other three cultivators came to the stage to take the prize, took the Xuanyu token to participate in the bookstore competition, and happily stepped down. Originally, the chief steward was ready to speak, but the arrogant cultivator turned around, and the cultivators in the audience also got up and dispersed, making the steward embarrassment and exit, so he didn't get angry!
Jian Chuan returned to his home in the bookstore, and Senior Sister Qiu'er was already blocking the door, smiling and stretching out her hand to Jian Chuan.
"What does Senior Sister Qiu'er mean?"
Jian Chuan said with a smile.
"Senior Brother Dayin, a master! I actually passed the first test and got a big reward. β
"Hey, heyγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» it's a fluke!"
Jian Chuan smiled triumphantly.
"Hmph, virtue!"
Senior Sister Qiu'er threw a wink, but her mouth was smiling and scolding. Jian Chuan didn't care, just chatted with him. After a while, in the bookstore's repair house, in the Jianchuan family's cultivator's compound, almost everyone already knew that the newcomer Da Yin junior had actually won the first place in the book-making pavilion and could participate in the bookstore competition. At one time, many cultivators came. Jianchuan took out a magic bag and gave it to Senior Sister Qiu'er, while talking to Senior Brother Koizumi, a disciple under the command of the chief steward of the bookstore, who heard the news, Senior Sister Qiu'er grabbed the magic bag in her hand, and suddenly shouted:
"Three thousand vein stones, Senior Brother Dayin will wait for me to wait for three thousand vein stones to eat!"
When all the cultivators heard this, they all felt that Da Yin was really honest and trustworthy.
"Senior Brother Dayin, thank you for the jade beauty you gave some time ago, Senior Sister Lin Qiao'er, a disciple under the command of the Sea Fairy, was greatly admired, thinking that the carving was exquisite and had everyone's demeanor. β
Senior Brother Koizumi lowered his voice and said to Jian Chuan.
"Oh, is Lin Qiao'er Senior Brother Koizumi's sweetheart?"
Jian Chuan smirked.
"Whoa, what? But we just have a good relationship. β
"Oh, really, is it just a good relationship?"
"Is there any other reason?"
"Or is Brother Dao a drunkard and doesn't mean to drink?"
Jian Chuan knew that the junior brother of Koizumi was a follower of the Sea Fairy, the lord of the Sea Clan Book City, and had a great desire for the Sea Fairy, so he smiled and teased that Menzi.
"Shhhh β
The guy was really nervous, and lowered his voice and quietly transmitted.
"I know! It's just that Brother Dao knows that the falling flowers are intentional, and the flowing water is ruthless!
"Understand! Isn't this just a crush? Actually, the cultivator who has a crush on the Sea Fairy is not my family! I just have eight thousand, if not ten thousand, but also eight thousand!"
Menzi sighed.
"Could it be that the sea fairy is really so beautiful?"
"It's not just beauty, it's also that supreme supernatural power that is enviable!"
Senior Brother Koizumi couldn't help but salivate, and that Jianchuan just snickered when he heard this.
Another half a month passed, and the other oral cultivator competitions also ended, and the semi-finals were finally held in the main hall of the bookstore. The warlocks of the Academy of Literature have literary examinations, the martial arts academy cultivators have martial arts competitions, and there are also Taoist academies and magic halls, and even the battle skills competitions have a number of casualties! As for the various craft cultivators, such as Jianchuan, they all go to their own kind of halls to compete in their own halls. For example, Jianchuan went to the bookstore to take the exam, and the people who competed in the same hall were all top cultivators selected by the bookshop under the bookstore. However, there are more than 30 cultivators, old and young, men and women, all of whom are looking for their own acquaintances, and greet each other after meeting.
It was the first time for Jian Chuan to participate in this kind of big competition, and a cultivator warlock didn't know anything, so he just stood quietly in front of his futon and waited. After a while, a cultivator came in and shouted:
"Master Hong has arrived. β
When the cultivators heard this, they saluted respectfully, and although Jian Chuan felt strange in his heart, he also did the same, leaning over and saluting.
"Excuse me! Let's get started. β
Na Laixiu looked kind, just nodded slightly, and then commanded.
So that Dabi is even the beginning, without a little verbal encouragement or the like, and goes straight to the topic?
It's still the same procedure, but this time the book sent is a large tome, and it is not easy to carve it on a piece of spirit jade of limited size. First of all, the raw material is almost just a piece of jade, and there can be no leftovers. Secondly, if the cultivation is not enough, and the power of the divine mind is insufficient, it is almost impossible to carve a grand classic on it! However, Master Na Hong also has a word first, and if no one has finished carving, the standard will be to judge the content of the original book.
Jian Chuan smiled slightly, took the raw materials and the large book jade slip from his basket, and then took out the knife, but polished the jade slip for a while, and then arranged the magic circle in the jade slip with the power of divine thought, and then transcribed the words on the tome of the book, and carefully carved the new jade slip magic circle. For three days and three nights, in addition to the rough sound of the cultivators snoring, the rest of the hall could be heard by falling needles.
Finally, Master Na Hong woke up from meditating with his eyes closed, and said slowly:
"Stop! β
The men on both sides responded and took away the baskets in front of the more than 30 cultivators in the main hall, and presented them to Master Hong in the main hall in a disorderly order, and the master glanced at it, and then commanded:
"Check!
Several cultivators came out of the first secret room behind the main hall and began to check and record them one by one. In just half an hour, the inspection of the jade slips in the thirty baskets was already over. It turned out that some of the cultivators who were optimistic about the master-level ability of the three cultivators actually fell off the list, but the new entrant Dark Horse was a cultivator named Da Yin.
"Da Yin?"
"Yes, it's a newcomer to my small courtyard book pavilion, and the strength is really good. However, the best thing is that it has a big backer behind it---- and the city lord of Kong is relied on. β
"I see!
This was followed by the Book City Competition, which was the final round. Several bookstores in the book city selected various industries and cultivators to participate in the competition. The venue is located in the central square of the book city, and there are a total of 30 big competitions. Jian Chuan's group is at the end, but this trial is different from the preliminary round and the semi-finals, it is two pieces of jade slips and a blank one, waiting for its contestants to carve the divine text and enter. The other piece is a jade slip with extremely exquisite workmanship, the divine text is mysterious, the magic circle is exquisite, and only when you can peep clearly can you carve another piece of jade slip into a book.
This kind of test comparison seems to be very simple, but it is the most exquisite cultivation of the spiritual power of the soul and the skill of breaking the talisman in the jade slip, this is the foundation of the book-making cultivator, who is strong and who is weak at a glance, there is no chance of it! With the ability of the sword river, it is indeed easy, but it is even more difficult to make it not exposed. Jian Chuan started to just explore the secret at will, and the jade slip inner rune array was cracked, and he had all the scriptures in his chest, but he didn't dare to burn it at this moment, for fear of exposing his identity secrets. Then he sighed and sat upright, thinking of a good plan. Seeing that most of the participating cultivators frowned, only the majority were elated, and Jian Chuan became more and more worried.
"I'll have to know the progress of the participating warlocks one by one before deciding my progress. β
So Jian Chuan turned his spirit into dust and spread it out, monitoring the progress of the participating cultivators one by one. At this moment, a cultivator in the City Lord's Mansion in Dongcheng District, whose divine thoughts had enveloped half of the book city, suddenly jumped up!
"Who has the power of divine thought that surpasses the power of cultivating the void power?
The cultivator jumped up, and the Dharma scarf on his face slipped off and fell, but he didn't seem to know, but he was just hurriedly using Dafa to diffuse the place where the divine thoughts emanated. Jian Chuan had already felt that when the power of divine thought came, he had already made progress in participating in the competition, so he collected his mental power and pretended to break the formation carefully. Sure enough, the power of that powerful divine thought swept over, and swept over again, and so on again and again, but still nothing was obtained.
The face of the Xiu family in the Dongcheng District City Lord's Mansion has been leaked at this time, and it is indeed a disaster for the country and the people! But the beautiful face is full of doubts at this time. He pondered for a long time, and then brought a scarf on the back, and quietly walked out of his house, looking for the source of the divine thought.
For Jianchuan, there is almost no suspense, and with the means of the new Taoist power, he easily won the third place in the book city bookstore competition, and his reputation was dry for a while. Although there are many voices of doubt, who dares to appeal?
Three months after the big competition, Na Jianchuan still served as a third-level master in the original book-making pavilion, and after a third-level master mission was completed in three days, he returned to his residence to retreat. But the only difference is that Senior Sister Qiu'er and Senior Brother Koizumi don't dare to come to entangle and ask for benefits after all. However, Jian Chuan also has troubles, the power of divine thoughts that comes and goes from time to time sweeps over him several times a day, and there is no rule, which makes Jian Chuan even worry about his cultivation.
About half a year passed, and the chief steward of the bookstore suddenly transferred Jianchuan to the City Lord's Mansion to take charge of the City Lord's private library. Jian Chuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, so it was right, he was closer to the book "Wen Dao" recorded by the mysterious ancient god rune seal, and he was also closer to the high-level cultivator warlock who knew about the events in the cave world. However, Na Jianchuan packed up his things and was preparing to go to work, but suddenly received an order from the sea fairy, the city lord of Dongcheng District, and ordered Dayin to go to the city lord's mansion in Dongcheng District to help investigate the matter.
Jian Chuan was surprised when he heard this, it seems that the sea fairy shouldn't have insight into his own situation? However, there is no way, the edict of the city lord of Kong is oral, and the messenger is just an ordinary man, but the edict of the sea fairy city lord is clearly aware of the jade plate of the Baicheng City Lord's Mansion, and there is also the presence of the Yamen Shilang of the City Defense Division of the Book City, Jian Chuan has no choice but to follow the Yamen Shilang of the City Defense Division to the City Lord's Mansion in Dongcheng District.
