Chapter 38: Matsue Castle
As the northernmost city of the human race, Songjiang City is not large, but it also covers an area of more than 60,000 acres, and there are hundreds of thousands of people in the city. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It has been a month since the announcement of the martial arts was issued, and the number of people who participated in the registration was as many as tens of thousands.
Of course, it is impossible for all of them to participate in the competition in this martial arts exercise, otherwise this martial arts exercise will be more than when it will be over.
Tens of thousands of people who signed up for the competition must at least be eliminated about ninety percent, that is, nine thousand, leaving only about one thousand people to participate in the competition and enter the selection competition.
In the selection competition of 1,000 people, 160 people were selected, and 160 people advanced to the finals, and only 10 people advanced to the finals, and the finals of 10 people finally decided who was the champion of this martial arts performance.
......
Songjiang Castle, a huge martial arts arena, countless crowds of people gather here. This boundless crowd of people roughly observed, there were at least more than 100,000 people, almost including almost all the warriors in the entire Songjiang City.
After all, such a grand martial arts event is not something that happens every year, and everyone has the psychology of joining in the fun, so it makes sense that so many people gather.
The selection criteria are also very simple, as long as you can block the punch of the master of the Qi Realm and not fall, then you can be regarded as passing.
For this selection, Lu, Zhou, Wang, Chen, and almost all the Qi Cultivation Realm masters of the four major families were dispatched to come to this martial arts arena as an assessment officer.
......
On the side of the martial arts arena, in an inconspicuous corner, a master of the Zhou family's Qi Cultivation Realm was selecting the contestants in front of him.
"Unqualified!Next!" Zhou Jialian Qi Realm master said expressionlessly, this kind of waste that he couldn't even resist with a punch, he was in no mood to pay attention to it.
In front of him fell a young man with a face of defeat, he had just reached the fifth layer of the Quenching Body Realm this year, he wanted to come over to try his luck, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even hold up with a punch, although he was unwilling, but he could only leave in disgrace, after all, this was not a place for him to go wild.
Lu Ze had already come to Songjiang City three days in advance, recuperating his energy, and was looking at the selection in front of him with great interest at the moment, only to see that the examiner punched one by one, and countless people were screened out, with a disgraced face.
As a descendant of the Lu family, he naturally does not need to participate in this kind of selection, and his own strength is obvious to all in the Lu family, so he naturally does not need to participate in this kind of screening assessment and test.
"Unqualified!"
"Unqualified!"
......
"Pass!"
"Pass!"
"Hey!" Lu Ze looked at it for a long time, and sighed a little boredly, "I came here early in the morning, I thought I could find a few masters with some strength, but I didn't expect that they were all simple and powerless." ”
Shaking his head, he found it boring and walked away.
Anyway, I haven't visited Matsue Castle carefully, so instead of wasting time here, it's better to go shopping and have a pleasant mood.
Songjiang City covers an area of more than 60,000 acres, wide and huge, the city wall of dozens of zhang high around is towering and upright, extremely magnificent, magnificent, like a giant beast entrenched in the earth, majestic to the world.
The layout of the city is roughly divided into east, west, south and north, four major plates, the previous martial arts arena is in the west of the city, it is the largest martial arts arena in Songjiang City, generally there are major events, where are they held, and the same is true of the young generation of the four major families of the martial arts competition.
The east of the city is the residence of some rich and noble families, and the Lu family also has a mansion, he came to Songjiang City for three days, and he was tired of seeing it for a long time, and he didn't think there was anything to see.
Now there is only the south of the city and the north of the city have not been to it, I heard that the south of the city and the north of the city are always connected, there is a straight avenue connected, the wide avenue can accommodate twenty carriages to run back and forth on it at the same time, the surrounding area of the avenue is full of restaurants, shops, and all kinds of fun and delicious things, the flow of people is surging, day and night, extremely lively.
Lu Ze's foot strength is good, and it didn't take much time to come to the intersection of the south and north of the city, which is indeed lively and crowded.
I don't know how many times more lively than Matsuda Town, especially now that Matsue City has gathered so many warriors, the popularity has skyrocketed instantly, and the chivalrous warriors with swords in their right hands have also had a lot of literati and ink writers, vegetable vendors, small servants, merchants and tourists from all over the world.
Lu Ze walked aimlessly for a while, saw an arms shop that bought and sold weapons, and walked in. I looked left and right, and found that there were a lot of weapons, but I didn't know what the quality was, I pulled out an iron sword, my wrist trembled slightly, and the sword body buzzed. Listening with my ears, I noticed that there was a lot of noise in the subtle humming sound, and I couldn't help but let it go back in disappointment.
Looking at the past, I didn't find any good weapons, all of them were mortal soldiers, not even a treasure weapon, at most, they were sharper than ordinary mortal soldiers, and there was nothing peculiar to pay attention to.
"What kind of weapon do you need?" asked a guy in the shop.
Lu Ze smiled dumbly, shook his head and said, "Weapon, if I say I want a treasure, can you still get it in the store?"
The little guy's face showed embarrassment, smiled dryly, and said: "The guest officer said that he laughed, the small shop is a small business, and it only sells all sharp weapons, such as precious weapons like treasures, and the small shop naturally only has them." ”
"Since there isn't, there's nothing to see. Lu Ze didn't embarrass him either, and said leisurely.
But since there is nothing good to do, then he doesn't want to stay here for long, so he might as well go out for a walk, and he is about to walk out the door as soon as he takes a step.
"Hey, guest officer, please wait a moment!" The little guy saw that Lu Ze was leaving, he was a little anxious, he knew that Lu Ze was dressed as a rich man, such a character is not something that can be encountered every day, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Although the small shop does not have any treasures, there are also some novel things, I wonder if the guest officer is interested in taking a look?"
"Oh!" Lu Ze was interested, and his footsteps stopped, new and interesting objects, you can also take a look.
Seeing Lu Ze stop, the little guy couldn't help but smile, took Lu Ze to the side of the shelf, and introduced: "Look at this heart goggle, don't look at him thin, but ordinary treasures can't be pierced at all, and they can save people's lives at a critical moment." And this treasure bag, the gold golem, the cloak of concealment,"
"Wait, how do I know if what you said is true or false?" Lu Ze was so angry when he heard him say that his head exploded, and he was not interested in listening to it anymore, so he interrupted him directly.
"This...."The little guy was obviously a little overwhelmed.
"I don't embarrass you, you said before that this heart shield can resist the attack of the treasure weapon, and I also happen to have a sword. If your goggles can withstand the blow of my sword, then what you say is true, and I will buy all the treasure bags, gold golems, etc. If it's fake, then I'm sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to tear down your shop. Lu Ze said leisurely.
"Ahh
"But I can't call the shots! I'm just a handyman, and I can't do this kind of thing......
"Yes!" a voice suddenly came from behind him.
Lu Ze turned his head and saw an old man who was a little rickety, only to see him staring at him fixedly, and said solemnly, "I can agree to your request." ”
Lu Ze was a little embarrassed and said, "I ...... just now"
"Okay, it doesn't matter if you're here to make trouble or not, since the words have been spoken, there is naturally no reason to take them back. The old man interrupted Lu Ze's words and said stubbornly.
Lu Ze wanted to speak and stopped, but seeing the old man's stubborn expression, he had no choice but to nod helplessly.
The old man took the goggles, put them on the table beside him, and said, "You can try this goggles, if they are damaged, then I won't take a penny, but if they can resist your sword, then you will buy it, and it is double the price, do you have any objections?"
Now Lu Ze has nothing to back down, and said directly: "No problem, if it is really as you said, not only this heart goggle, but also those other things, I will also buy them at double the price." ”
