Chapter 133 Conferment of Officers
Chen Mo stepped into the third layer of the secret vault, and the shining treasure light was dazzling, which was overwhelming.
Unlike the orbs used for lighting on the first and second floors, some of the treasures on the third floor are constantly emitting dazzling light to illuminate the entire vault.
Compared with the first and second floors, this place is obviously much smaller, only four or five acres in size, but the number of treasures stored is still quite amazing, roughly calculated, at least four or five hundred.
This is also normal, after all, this is the accumulation of the great Qiantian Son over the past 300 years.
And beyond the third floor, there is a secret vault that belongs to the Son of Heaven alone, and the things stored in it may not be very precious, but they are all privately stored by the Son of Heaven.
This fourth-layer vault is guarded by a separate formation, and it is not yet open.
Chen Mo didn't pay much attention to this, his eyes kept searching for the treasures in front of him.
In fact, there are quite a few treasures that are also very much to his liking, but this time he said that he wants armor weapons, so it is best to choose only armor weapons.
Being too greedy is not a good thing.
All kinds of rare armor and weapons were looked at by him one by one, and if there was anything he liked, he would write it down for the time being, and then make a choice after reading it all.
After basically browsing it, Chen Mo quickly selected a set of armor.
This is a set of beast-faced swallowing black body armor, the overall weight of the whole armor is only 390 catties, not heavy, but the protection is extremely strong.
The reason why it is not heavy is because the armor is inlaid with formations, and most of the weight is offset with the power of heaven and earth.
Otherwise, the total weight of this set of armor should be more than 1,400 catties.
In addition, if the martial artist can withstand the full weight of this armor, then this formation can carry the true qi of the martial artist and provide an additional set of barriers for the martial artist.
This treasure can be said to be a rare treasure, although it is too heavy and not easy to wear.
But these shortcomings are not disadvantages compared to the advantages of this beast-faced head-swallowing chain armor.
According to the general introduction next to the armor, this heavy armor was originally used by an innate martial artist, and it was used on the battlefield without taboo.
Even if you don't use the blessing of the martial artist's true qi, this armor itself can effectively resist the attacks of the innate martial artist.
It would be laborious to carry it with you, but it would undoubtedly be much safer.
As for the blades, he didn't pick any weapons he wanted.
There are also good weapons in the three-layer vault, but there are no guns that Chen Mo is good at.
It was either a sword or a halberd spear, and Chen Mo didn't use it very well in his hand, but he just used it as an alternative.
If there is no spear in the second layer, he is going to take a halberd and go, and the most he can turn around is to pick another halberd and practice it well.
With Chen Mo's current control of the physical body, if it was just some ordinary moves, then he would be able to practice it quickly, and it wouldn't take much time to basically master it.
What he had to practice was nothing more than those martial arts that stimulated qi and blood, and he had no intention of practicing for the time being.
The martial arts contained in the Greedy Wolf Seven Killing Fist and the Eighteen Shocks of Ben Thunder are enough to use for a long time.
In particular, the three-style martial arts of the Greedy Wolf Seven Killing Fist can be said to have almost no upper limit in itself, as long as it can withstand the consequences of stimulating qi and blood, it can continuously improve the power of this martial art.
And Chen Mo is the person who is most suitable for this type of martial arts, he is strong enough to withstand the consequences.
Even if he bursts with strength far beyond his own limit, he can slowly recuperate through the fetal breath state in the future.
Therefore, at present, his biggest goal is to master these three martial arts first, and he does not plan to waste energy on other martial arts for the time being.
People have limited time and energy, so instead of wanting both, it is better to focus on one subject first.
In addition, Chen Mo also selected a treasure bow, known as the Seven Peerless Bows.
If this treasure bow is only opened with flesh and blood, it must have at least 27,000 catties of strength.
If you use internal qi to stimulate, then it will be much easier to pull it apart.
As long as 7,000 catties of strength is enough, and more importantly, you don't need to carry arrows with you.
The Seven Absolute Bows can condense the internal qi of the warrior, flying for hundreds of zhang without dissipating, if it is the true qi condensation of the innate martial artist, the arrow can reach a thousand zhang away.
Chen Mo's internal qi in his body is now beginning to be initially sublimated, and he can't be sure what the true qi of a martial artist is, but it should also be far beyond that of an ordinary martial artist, and it is not a problem to shoot hundreds of zhang with an arrow.
Putting away the Seven Peerless Treasure Bow and the Beast Face Swallowing Head Chained Armor, Chen Mo set off to return to the second layer and searched carefully again.
This search, I really found a spear, the name of the gun is Qiulong, and the style and length are not much different from the spear used by Chen Mo before.
The weight is a little lighter, only five hundred and sixty-three catties, but as a secondary weapon, it can be used to pour and fit.
Although Chen Mo took this spear, he was still going to pick a basic halberd method to study when he turned around.
In this way, if you change weapons in the future, you can choose from a wider range of areas.
As for asking someone to build it?
The better the weapon, the longer it will take to refine and build, and some of them are not yet available to ordinary blacksmiths, so you need to invite a refiner among the alchemists.
It is not impossible for a refiner to build a weapon, as short as three years and five years, or a little longer than ten years.
With the speed of self-cultivation, when the weapon is created, I am afraid that I will not be able to use it.
Returning to the exit of the first floor with the selected weapon, the old eunuch still sat here with a smile and waited.
"This is the weapon and armor I have selected, and I ask my seniors to register it."
Chen Mo took out the weapons he had selected one by one from the storage bag.
The old eunuch nodded, asked for the name of the weapon and armor, and carefully wrote it in the ledger.
"Chen Xiannan, please wait here for a while, I'll go back."
After keeping the account, he stood up and did not take Chen Mo away, but walked deeper into the secret vault.
Chen Mo didn't snoop much, and sat quietly at his desk waiting.
After nearly a stick of incense, the old eunuch went and returned, still holding a talisman in his hand.
Unlike the talisman depicted on yellow paper cinnabar, this talisman is made of human skin.
The source of its material, the Eight Achievements are those human skin lanterns that float in the air.
"This is a small transfer talisman, and it can also be stimulated by using the internal qi of the martial artist, but the effect will be much worse, and it can only be moved for ten miles at most.
Your Majesty specially sent someone to explain it before, and ordered me to enter the secret vault of the Son of Heaven to take this talisman and hand it over to you. ”
The old eunuch smiled and wiped the thin sweat on his head, and reached out to hand the talisman to Chen Mo.
"Thank you." Chen Mo took it in his hand, and the old eunuch hurriedly spoke again, "Chen Xiannan still don't want to thank me for being a despicable person, if you want to thank you, you should go back and thank Your Majesty." ”
With that, he walked into the corridor.
Chen Mo put away his weapon and Qiankun Movement Talisman and followed closely behind him.
The old eunuch did not take him to leave the palace immediately, but went to the side hall again, and was summoned by His Majesty together with the eyes of the current branch list.
This summons was just a routine summons, and the Son of Heaven encouraged the three of them, and each gave them a jade pendant.
This jade pendant is an ordinary jade pendant, at most, it is an extremely rare jadeite, and there is nothing special about it.
Giving the jade pendant, Zhao Huaili waved his hand and motioned for the three of them to leave.
"Two brothers, let's be admitted to the Jinshi together, in the future, it will be the same year, the younger brother will be the east, and he will set up a banquet on the first floor of the city, I don't know if the two brothers are willing to enjoy their faces."
After the three of them, Li Yushen, the eyes of the new department, suggested with a smile.
He was born in the Li family in Sanshan Prefecture, and the current General Zhennan is his uncle.
The Li family in Sanshan Prefecture is not the top family in Daqian, but it is also a first-class upstream.
His family is even more deeply rooted and powerful in Sanshan Prefecture.
However, his attitude towards Chen Mo has always been humble and polite.
The reason is simple, Chen Mo's strength is strong enough and his talent is good enough.
Innate powerhouse, even their Li family is only one now.
Having a good relationship with Chen Mo, whether it is for him or his family, is beneficial and harmless.
Since he opened his mouth to invite, Chen Mo and another Jinke Tanhua naturally would not refuse.
The three of them went to the outer city together, and had a feast in the restaurant, and did not disperse until the evening to return home.
Stepping back home, Zhao Yu saw him returning, smiled and picked up a gift slip and handed it to him, "There are a lot of officials and nobles who gave you gifts today, and I have sorted out all the things they sent, you can see it." ”
Chen Mo smiled and took the gift list, which clearly stated the identity of the giver and the number of gifts, obviously in order to do these well, Zhao Yu did not make a lot of effort.
He took a closer look at it, nodded lightly and praised, "It's been a hard work." ”
Zhao Yu smiled, it seemed that he was in a good mood.
…………
The next day, Chen Mo went to the Wanfa Building and selected a halberd method called Liuhe Euphorbia to study.
After practicing peacefully at home for two days, the court held a court meeting again.
It's just that this time it's no longer like last time, it's a small court meeting that only officials above the fifth rank can participate.
It is said that it is a small court meeting, but in fact, there are quite a few officials who came, and there are more than 200 people in total.
The main purpose of this court meeting is to confer officers on many martial artists who have been admitted, and Chen Mo is of course among them.
As usual, he got up early in the morning, and Chen Mo changed into a county man's robe and prepared to enter the palace.
He is now a higher knighthood, and according to the rules, he has to wear the county man's robe when he goes to court.
After the official position is higher, then you should wear an official robe when you go to court.
Changing into an official uniform and walking out of the house, Chen Mo first greeted several neighbors.
In fact, except for him, all the people who can live in the inner city are second- and third-rank high-ranking officials or princes of the imperial court, after all, this place is not only closer to the palace city, but also equivalent to a blessed land.
If Chen Mo hadn't made great contributions, coupled with his talent and strength were good enough, he would have taken a fancy to him today, then with his identity, he would definitely not be able to live in this inner city.
Walking into the palace hall, Chen Mo stood in one place with many new science and technology scholars.
The Son of Heaven went to court, hundreds of officials worshipped, and all the existing processes were completed, and the general of the Chinese army opened his mouth and asked His Majesty to confer the official title for the new science and technology martial arts.
It stands to reason that this matter should be done by the general, but the general is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, which is a false position.
It has always been only posthumously sealed, and few people can sit in this official position alive.
The awarding of officials to many jinshi is from the back to the front, and those who are born with jinshi are awarded first.
Until now, all the scholars have been rewarded, and this is Chen Mo's turn to be the champion.
"Fengtian carries the emperor, Edict! Chen Mo, a man from Aoki County, is young and smart, and loyal to the country. Crowned from the fourth rank of the Xuanwu general, temporarily accepted the post of the Ministry of Rites, sent him as a special envoy, and sent the envoy to the north! The palace priest who was in charge of reading the decree shouted loudly.
Diplomatic envoys are the business of the Ministry of Rites, and since Chen Mo wants to be the chief envoy, of course, he must also receive another official position in the Ministry of Rites.
It's just that his official position is only empty, and his real power is limited to this mission.
Otherwise, if you are a serious 800 waiter of the Ministry of Rites, then at least you have to be a fourth-grade official.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu is the third-rank official, and the prime minister of Zhongshu Province and the Shangshu Order of Shangshu Province, these two are just second-grade officials.
But if they die, it will be posthumously sealed.
"Weichen takes the order!" Chen Mo responded loudly, bowed again, and then accepted the holy decree
