Chapter 360: The Middle Market

In recent years, the literature and Taoism of the Great Shang Dynasty have indeed not been as prosperous as the Great Wen Kingdom, but recently there have been many talented young people, and even all the great Confucians, Hongru, and grandmasters of the Great Shang Dynasty have praised them, hailing them as the hope for the future of Confucianism and Taoism in the Great Shang Dynasty.

A few days later, it will be Confucius's Christmas birthday, and the two sides will compete again to see whether the young generation of the Great Wen Kingdom is more powerful, or the genius of the Great Shang Dynasty is more outstanding.

A banquet in the Vermilion Bird Hall came to an end quickly, but this banquet had a great impact on the entire Great Shang Wendao. As long as they participated in the banquet and witnessed the contest between the young people of the two countries, their hearts would feel heavy and worried.

Wen Zhu Xiaohan, Qilin Manifestation, the talent of this young man in the Great Wen Kingdom is no longer enough to describe it as a genius, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is rare in a hundred years.

More importantly, after this meeting in the main hall, the two sides agreed to continue to let the young people of the two countries continue to compete on the birthday of the first saint Confucius.

The reason why Master Dawen chose to visit the Great Shang Dynasty at this time is not without reason, as long as everyone in Wendao knows what the birth of Master Confucius means, it is a major festival of Confucianism and Taoism in the entire human world.

More importantly, this is also the reason why the seventy-two disciples of Confucius were divided, each opened a sect, set up a branch of Confucianism and Taoism, and formed the current eight schools of thought, and the disputes between literature and Taoism in various countries also came from this.

At that time, if the Great Shang Dynasty could not send enough outstanding disciples to overwhelm Liao Boya of the Great Wen Kingdom, it would become more and more difficult for the Great Shang Dynasty's Wendao to gain a foothold among the countries, which would invisibly mean that it would also establish the authentic status of the Great Wen Kingdom's Wendao, and it would be more and more difficult for the Great Shang Dynasty to refute this in the future.

"Father."

And two days later, Chen Shaojun finally met his father Chen Zongxi.

"Hmm."

When Chen Zongxi crossed the threshold, he just responded casually, looking absent-minded.

Chen Shaojun stood aside and glanced at it secretly, only to see his father frowning and worried, which was completely different from when he went.

"You've been at home these days, haven't you caused me trouble?"

Chen Zongxi said.

"No, the child has been studying the Analects for the past few days."

Chen Shaojun bowed and said.

"Hmm."

Chen Zongxi just nodded, and immediately passed by Chen Shaojun and entered his study.

Behind him, Chen Shaojun straightened up and let out a long sigh of relief.

For a few days, my father seemed to have completely forgotten about his martial arts practice, at least he didn't pursue the matter again, and it seemed that the matter was revealed.

At least this meeting, my father did not mention the abolition of martial arts again.

But it was only for a moment, Chen Shaojun came back to his senses, he rarely saw his father so worried, if possible, he had to find a way to help his father deal with all this.

"Uncle Jiang, is my father still because of the envoy of the Great Wen Kingdom this time?"

Chen Shaojun quickly found Jiang Bo, who was the last to come in.

This time my father returned home, Uncle Jiang drove the carriage to the palace to greet him, Uncle Jiang is the old man next to his father, he has followed his father for decades, and his father will not tell him many things, but he will say to Uncle Jiang beside him.

"Hmm."

Jiang Bo nodded, with a solemn expression:

"The envoy of the Great Wen Kingdom who came this time is very powerful, especially his disciple, the master said that his qualifications are extremely outstanding, and the talent he has shown is the most powerful he has ever seen in the past few decades. I have followed the master for so many years, and I have never heard him exaggerate a young man so much. It seems that this time the lord is really in trouble at the court. ”

Jiang Bo said, sighed, shook his head, and quickly crossed the threshold and followed.

Behind him, Chen Shaojun frowned and was silent.

Is this Liao Boya really so powerful?

Father has always cherished words like gold, even if Chen Shaojun won the first place in the Deer Park Poetry Club, and after he came back, he showed his cultivation in the lobby and his literary spirit, his father never praised him so much. But now, my father actually gave such a high evaluation to the young man of Dawenguo.

Chen Shaojun was silent, but a competitive heart gradually arose in his heart, wanting to meet the young man of Dawenguo.

It's just that now my father doesn't mention it, there is no movement in the court, and Chen Shaojun is also powerless and can't help anything, so he can only wait and see what happens.

Chen Shaojun temporarily pressed his mind and found an opportunity to leave the Chen family's mansion quickly.

In addition to the affairs of the court, Chen Shaojun himself also has another important matter.

All the way, in a corner tower near the lower market, Chen Shaojun saw Jin Yilei, who had not been in contact for a long time.

I haven't seen him for a long time, and now Jin Yilei's appearance has changed greatly, he is dressed in brocade, with ten thick fingers, each of which has a magic weapon wrench, and his body is also slightly rich, looking proud, completely different from before.

Chen Shaojun's skills have risen sharply now, and he rarely goes to the lower ruins, and almost everything is handed over to Jin Yilei.

Chen Shaojun knew that with the magic weapons he had refined, Jin Yilei was now in the ruins, and his status had risen, and he had become a leading magic weapon merchant, and his status was completely different from before.

"I've seen Childe!"

In the box, seeing Chen Shaojun walking in, Jin Yilei looked stunned, and hurriedly bowed and saluted, looking extremely pious.

This is his true God of Wealth!

Although Jin Yilei is touted outside, but in his heart, Jin Yilei has always been very sober, he knows deeply that without Chen Shaojun, he would not have his current status, of course, the most important thing is that Chen Shaojun is a weapons master, and he has to hold this thigh firmly.

"Let me ask you, how did you do the things that were asked to do before?"

Chen Shaojun took a chair, sat down with a golden knife, and asked.

"Hui Gongzi, I have already checked, the things you want are too advanced, and you can't find this kind of earth vein cultivation resources in the entire lower ruins. In addition, about the middle market mentioned by the childe, I also used my own connections to ask all of them, although the middle market and the lower market both have a ruin word, but they are independent of each other, and there is not much connection, in the entire lower market, in fact, more than ninety percent of the people are not qualified to enter the middle market. ”

"Oh?"

Chen Shaojun raised his eyebrows, surprised.

"There is only one word difference between the middle market and the lower market, but in fact, the threshold is extremely high, and we people are not qualified to enter it at all, and the treasures traded there are not something we can afford."

Jin Yilei paused and continued.

"Although those lower ruins are opened in the Jingshi, they are not actually under the control of the imperial court, and the middle ruins themselves belong to the place where the warriors trade secretly, and the various empires and imperial courts are even more out of reach. Lower ruins can be found in almost every continent and empire, and can be found in many places, but the number of middle ruins is much smaller. I've been trading magic weapons for so many years, and I still haven't had a chance to get in! ”

At the end, Jin Yilei smiled bitterly.

When Chen Shaojun just found him and asked about Zhongxu, he was really shocked, he had been working in Xiaxu for so long, and he never thought that one day he would be able to contact Zhongxu.

"You say the threshold of Zhongxu is very high? What exactly is the threshold, and what exactly are the conditions to get there? ”

Chen Shaojun frowned, and said after a moment of silence.

"The first one is not to accept the entry of warriors below the veins of the earth."

Jin Yilei pondered for a moment, watching Chen Shaojun finally say the first condition.

Chen Shaojun was stunned when he heard this, and stood there, speechless for a moment.

knew that it was not easy to enter Zhongxu, but Chen Shaojun did not expect the first condition, and he was already not satisfied.

"Are the conditions for entering the Central Market so high?"

Chen Shaojun frowned and said.

"This ...... Not necessarily. As far as I know, if you use the obedience status of those top powerhouses, you can also enter. In addition, if the background is strong enough, such as some large sects of the Outer Immortal Sect and the Evil Dao Demon Clan, they can also enter it without restrictions. ”

Jin Yilei paused and continued.

Chen Shaojun's brows suddenly furrowed even deeper, and he was even more dissatisfied with these conditions. The Chen family is a family of literature and Taoism, which is obviously too far from martial arts.

If only she were!

In the dark, a thought flashed through Chen Shaojun's mind, and he suddenly remembered Bian Qing.

Bian Qing is a disciple of the Taiyin Sect, and she is also regarded as the princess of the evil way, if she is there, she may be able to successfully enter the middle ruins.

Chen Shaojun still vaguely remembered that Bian Qing had entered the middle market, and there was a big fuss there, with the Taiyin Sect covering, and no one seemed to be able to do anything with her.

It's just a pity that after starting from the realm of the ghost clan, Chen Shaojun lost contact with her, and even if he had the heart, he couldn't find her.

"Is there no other way?

Chen Shaojun said in a deep voice.

"Yes, but it's hard."

Jin Yilei pondered for a moment and then said.

"Zhongxu also provides an opportunity for people with insufficient qualifications, that is, if we can refine a high-quality magic weapon, successfully attract the attention of Zhongxu, and get a very high evaluation there, we can enter a special list of Zhongxu, and successfully enter Zhongxu,—— Zhongxu can only be invited to enter, there is no other way, this is also the only way."

"As long as the grade of the magic weapon is high enough, is it enough?"

Chen Shaojun said in a deep voice.

"It's not that simple, there are many more treasures in the middle ruins than in the lower ruins, and the grade is much higher, even if the high-level magic weapons are just ordinary treasures when they get to the middle ruins, and some people have tried to borrow high-level magic weapons from others, and they want to use this method to enter the middle ruins, but without exception they have been rejected, so it is difficult to enter the middle ruins in this way, and the only way is that the magic weapons we provide to the middle ruins are unique and have some extremely unique value. To be honest, I don't have a lot of information. ”

Jin Yilei said, stealing a glance at Chen Shaojun.
