Doge's Palace, living room

Li Wenhao, the governor of Lingzhou, sat on the main seat, raised his glass to the nobles sitting in the two rows, drank together, and then said:

"The old man is the governor of Lingzhou, but he is mortal with the naked eye, his old eyes are dizzy, and he doesn't know the talents of Lingzhou."

"Now we invite talents from all walks of life, and we are willing to use the theme of governing the country to compete in literature and martial arts, and leave it as a model for future generations."

"I wonder what you think?"

Li Wenhao said this, and the young talents in the two rows put down the wine in their glasses one after another, and replied in unison:

"Your Excellency the Governor is gracious!"

"We are grateful to be a part of this event."

Hearing the echo of the crowd, Governor Li seemed very happy, and he immediately clapped his hands, and the maids who had arranged in advance came out with three golden basins in their hands, and placed them in the center of the living room, which aroused the curiosity of the guests present.

"What do you mean, Your Excellency?"

"As the saying goes, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts."

"Since it's about governing the country, you can't do without a lottery."

"The old man has specially prepared three treasures for all the guests."

Li Wenhao smiled smugly, and the guests present all held their breath and leaned forward, wanting to see what the Governor could call a treasure was.

Even Chu Qianqiu couldn't help but be curious, and when he looked at it, he found that the first golden basin contained the elixir, the second golden plate contained a weapon, and the last golden basin was empty.

Everyone's curiosity was aroused by Governor Li, and many anxious people asked:

"Dare to ask the Governor, what kind of elixir, what kind of weapon, and what does the last golden basin mean?"

"Don't be in a hurry, listen to the old man slowly." Li Wenhao pinched his beard and said with a smile.

"The reward of this golden basin is the elixir of Confucianism [Heart Cleansing Pill]."

"Heart Cleansing Pill?"

"There is a cloud in "Zhou Yi": The sage washes his heart with this and retreats to the secret, which is the so-called washing his heart and changing his face."

"All of you have practiced martial arts, so you naturally know the wonderful use of this heart-washing, it can not only repel most of the toxins and resist the interference of illusions, but also help suppress killing thoughts and control the body and mind, which is really a rare elixir."

"There is no other way to obtain such a [Heart Cleansing Pill] than the Supreme Perfection Academy."

Li Wenhao said while staring at Chu Qianqiu, for the masters in the army, a heart cleansing pill is a particularly precious treasure, there have been many demon masters who have secretly lurked in the Confucian sect, just to steal the unique pill of the Confucian sect.

It sounds very similar to the Buddha Heart Pill that my father-in-law gave me, but I can collect a copy, even if I don't eat it, it will be a good thing to exchange resources for others in the future.

Chu Qianqiu couldn't help but look at it twice, which made Li Wenhao secretly proud in his heart, he was really a martial artist, if he gave more money and goods, he might not be able to do things for the imperial court.

"Your Excellency the Governor is a great deal."

Everyone was stunned, the young talents in it included Fan Yuxuan, the daughter of the Fan family, one of the eight imperial merchants, Gong Nanxing, the son of the master of the Baicao Sect, and Ren Daoyuan, the true disciple of the Academy of Arts and Sciences, etc., all of them were rich masters, but they also understood that such an elixir had no price.

It's not something you want to buy, it's a monopoly resource, and occasionally one or two of them flow out, and if it's placed in the rivers and lakes of scattered cultivation, it will cause a bloody treasure.

"Lord Governor, is this the reward for third place?"

Gong Nanxing, the son of the master of Baicaomen, asked in disbelief, holding such an exchange meeting and giving away such an elixir, Baicaomen is not so generous.

You must know that they are a branch of the Medicine King Valley, and in terms of the number of elixirs, even the Guangming Temple may not be comparable.

Even Fan Yuxuan, the woman who had tested Chu Qianqiu just now, couldn't help but want to.

"No, I should say that these are the first place prizes."

"There is no first in literature, no second in martial arts, how can you let others?"

Li Wenhao waved his hand, reflecting the domineering spirit of the lord of Lingzhou.

Everyone was suppressed by Li Wenhao's tyrant spirit, but no

At this time, the Governor was thinking about a plan to discuss with his nephew.

"Mingde, why did you take out all the [Heart Washing Pill], quickly take it back."

"You can't use such a precious elixir."

"Uncle, if you can't bear the wolf and don't spend a little blood, how can you let the talents of Lingzhou fight?"

"If they don't fight, how can the court fish in troubled waters?"

"This is the two peach killing the three soldiers!" Li Mingde said lightly.

"Deal with a martial artist like Chu Qianqiu, lure him with fame and fortune, and let him understand that the imperial court can give him more glory and wealth, so that he can be dragged into the water step by step."

So Li Mingde began to lay bait, waiting for Chu Qianqiu to take the bait.

Seeing everyone's stunned expressions, Li Wenhao smiled with satisfaction, pointed to the second golden basin and said

"The second reward is a treasure soldier."

At this time, everyone was not only stunned, but they almost felt that they were dreaming.

I couldn't believe my ears at all.

"You all understand that a weapon with the characteristics of true qi is called a spirit soldier, and a weapon with a spiritual will is called a treasure soldier."

"Every time you forge a treasure soldier, it takes at least three to five years of precious time for a martial arts master to polish it."

"If that martial arts master hadn't reached the age of decay, he wouldn't have made such a weapon."

"This is the Virtuous Sword, one of the thirteen gentleman's swords of the Supreme Virtue Academy."

Burn!

As if feeling the eyes of everyone, the treasure soldier actually floated directly in the sky, emitting a warm light, making the surrounding VIPs feel a warm sense of comfort.

Sure enough, it's a treasure soldier.

It is said that if the innate master takes the treasure soldier, he will have the opportunity to fight against the martial master, or at least escape from the martial master and ascend to heaven, so any family is eager to have a treasure soldier to use as a last resort.

Even for a big sect like the Bright Temple and the Dragon and Tiger Sect, it is an extremely rare treasure, more precious than the elixir.

Because the production of elixir does not necessarily require a martial master, and the treasure soldier needs a martial arts master to spend time and effort, and consume mental power, leaving the spiritual imprint on the weapon.

The number of martial arts masters is already small, most of them are either in important positions, or they are bent on pursuing a higher realm, who can be patient to sacrifice their precious time to create treasures for future generations?

Only a sect of the level of the Dragon and Tiger Sect has such extravagant behavior.

"Governor, are you serious?" The true disciple of the Academy of Arts and Sciences, Ren Daoyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

There is only one such treasure in the academy where he is located, which already shows that there have been martial arts masters in the academy of arts and sciences, which is enough to squeeze into the second-rate forces, but it is impossible to let the academy take out such a treasure.

Now the Governor has a reception, and he takes out such a treasure.

Are you crazy, or am I crazy?

"A gentleman's word, the horse is hard to chase."

"In front of all the talents, how can the old man deceive people?"

Li Wenhao's face twitched slightly, he was fake and generous, not really generous, sending out such a treasure soldier would make him heartbroken even more than killing his ten sons.

But he couldn't use this treasure soldier, because this was a treasure that once belonged to the Cui family, and it was a treasure that the Cui family exchanged from the Supreme Shan Academy.

As a result, after the Cui family was wiped out, he took it over, but found that the treasure soldiers were extremely resistant to him, making him unusable.

This time, even the nephew took out the Heart Washing Pill, and the uncle had to double it together.

"So, what about the third golden basin?" Fan Yuxuan couldn't be reserved, she even forgot about calculating Chu Qianqiu, so she wanted to get these treasures.

"This third golden pot, let the old man sell it." Li Wenhao smiled and said.
