Chapter Seventy-Eight: First Encounter with Guan Zhilan
Guan Sheng smiled and stretched out a hand to stop the woman.
"The second sister is not joking, Ji Daochang saved the third brother's life last time. Moreover, the spirit talisman of the Taoist is a must, and even Master Fan of the Immortal Treasure Pavilion is full of praise for him. ”
Then Guan Sheng said to Ji Chen: "Please forgive me." This is a sister named Guan Zhilan. On weekdays, she is just playful, and Ji Daochang doesn't have to pay attention to her. ”
At this time, Guan Zhilan stood up and looked Ji Chen up and down.
"You should be about my age, how old are you?"
"Eighteen this year."
"I'm seventeen. You are not very old, and they still call you long, I think, it is better to call you Ji Chen directly, not to be more cordial. ”
"Hehe, you can call the girl anything, it's just a name. The two eldest brothers can also call me by name directly, and they don't have to be so angry. ”
"Okay, then you know my name, we know each other, it's time to say hello to me."
Ji Chen didn't expect this girl to be so familiar, so he replied with a smile: "Okay, good, the girl is polite!" ”
Guan Zhilan nodded and replied, "Uh." He sat back.
Ji Chen then explained his intention this time, first, he hoped that Guan Sheng could give him a letter of introduction so that he could participate in the competition; The second is to hope that Guan Sheng and Guan Jin can use their spirit runes at the martial arts competition, so as to increase their popularity and make their spirit runes more popular.
Guan Sheng replied with a smile: "It's okay to have this letter of introduction, I'll open it for Brother Ji Chen later." As for this rune...... "
Guan Sheng didn't continue, but picked up the tea and drank it.
Guan Zhilan couldn't sit still at this time, and said directly: "Let's use your spirit rune in the martial arts competition, is your spirit rune very good?" Why should we use you? ”
"Brother Jichen, we are one yard to one yard. You saved me last time, thank you very much. It's just that the use of spirit runes is not a secret, but more than one trading house has come to us, and they have also let us use their elixirs and magic weapons, and they have all forced you to be more powerful. Guan Jin said.
"And the prices are very high." Guan Zhilan added.
Ji Chen thought to himself, this is also normal. Let others contribute, how can it not cost a little.
"I don't know, other trading houses, what price do they offer?"
Guan Jin was just about to speak, but Guan Zhilan took the lead.
"Lingyun Firm, let's use their elixir, as long as we get the top ten, ten thousand spirit stones. For each one, there are five thousand more spirit stones. If it's the third place, it's 80,000 spirit stones directly. For each one, there are 20,000 more. Other comptoirs are mostly at this price. What about you? ”
Ji Chen thought in his heart, this price is really high, but he is now only 10,000 spirit stones on his body, unless the black and white fruit ......
But this is definitely not good, the wealth is not exposed. Ji Chen has already sold a lot last time, and if he takes out some of it this time, I'm afraid it will attract people's attention.
And his own strength is far from enough to protect himself, so let's think of another way.
After thinking about it carefully, Ji Chen said: "If you want to talk about spirit stones, I really don't have that many. But I can promise that if the three of them can use my spirit runes in the martial arts competition, no matter how many people they are, I will give 20% of the profits to the few people who sell the spirit runes in the future, how about it? ”
Guan Sheng smiled: "How many of your two percent are there?" ”
Ji Chen also knew that he didn't have many chips, but he still replied: "Maybe there aren't many now, but I believe that in the long run, it must be much more than those 100,000 spirit stones." ”
All three laughed.
After a while, the three of them saw that Ji Chen still looked serious, so Guan Sheng said: "In this way, second sister, you take Brother Ji Chen to the martial arts arena first, take a look, and we'll talk about it when we come back." ”
Guan Zhilan understood, took Ji Chen, and walked to the martial arts arena.
Along the way, Guan Zhilan and Ji Chen explained what a martial arts arena is.
The so-called martial arts arena is a place founded by the three major families, so that the monks can sign up and fight on their own.
Those who rank high will be recruited by the three major families or other families and business houses.
From then on, the cultivation resources are guaranteed, and one's cultivation can be further improved.
Therefore, most of the people involved in it are casual cultivators who have no background and no resources.
Gradually, the three major families and various commercial houses also organized their own martial arts teams to recruit talents and complete some tasks for the master's family.
Walking to the entrance of the martial arts arena, there is a huge stone tablet here, which is engraved with the names of the people who have won ten consecutive victories.
"I wonder how many wins I can make if I get off the field?" Ji Chen thought in his heart, but still shook his head.
Ji Chen raised his head and looked at the archway above his head, with the words "Martial Arts Field" written on it.
At this time, the sun is shining, and these words on the archway reflect the sunlight and appear to be golden.
"It's magnificent!" Ji Chen praised in his heart.
The two walked through the torii, and directly in front of them was a huge house with three floors.
"This is the hall of the martial arts arena, where you can sign up, receive salaries and tasks, and recruit monks." Guan Zhilan introduced.
The two looked to the left, where there was a huge stadium-like structure.
"This is the venue for martial arts, and most of the competitions in this martial arts arena are held here."
Inside, it looks like a huge Colosseum, with a huge field in the middle, divided into small squares, each surrounded by a formation to ensure that the aftermath of the battle does not hurt the audience.
Around the venue, there is a circle of high platforms, which are for the spectators who come to watch the game. There are also some rooms where people open and bet to win.
"It's spectacular, how did you make it out of such a big venue?" Ji Chen sighed.
"Hmph, the power of the immortals, what is this, let's go."
The two walked out of the arena and came to the hall, which was resplendent and could accommodate nearly a thousand people, and at this time it was also crowded and noisy.
Guan Zhilan walked through the hall and walked straight into a room inside.
There was a middle-aged man sitting in front of him, looking at something.
"Uncle Wu, what are you busy with?"
"Oh, Zhilan, sit, why do you have time to come here? Who is this behind you? ”
Guan Zhilan didn't look back and sat down in a chic manner.
"Uncle Wu, is there anyone here who wants to try something new? This friend of mine has some talismans and wants to try the effect. ”
Uncle Wu smiled; "Okay, then I'll have someone ask."
"Huh? Is there anyone here who volunteers to be guinea pigs? Ji Chen asked suspiciously.
"Mice?"
"It's a volunteer to give my spirit rune as a test piece."
"Of course!"
In this martial arts arena, there are many people who come to beg for a living, from the late stage of qi refining to the middle stage of foundation building.
As for the higher cultivation, they are generally recruited by the three major families or commercial houses, and there is no need to come here.
Therefore, there are three lists in this martial arts field: one list, which is in the middle of foundation building; The second list is in the early stage of foundation building; The third list is in the late stage of qi refining.
The higher your ranking here, the more people will recruit you.
Moreover, the top 100 on each list will be paid a salary by a martial arts arena every month, and sometimes tasks will be assigned, and they will be paid for completing the tasks.
In addition, many large trading houses will also look for these monks and provide pills and magic weapons for free, in order to open up the popularity of their own goods.
So this ranking is very precious.
As for those monks who are not in the top 100, they can only fend for themselves and seek many blessings.
Therefore, in order to make a living, in order to improve their ranking, some of them will accept some experiments for a fee.
