Chapter 154 Ranking First Kills Two Birds with One Stone
These people immediately shut up and were speechless, and at this time, Hu Po and the others looked at this ordinary middle-aged man, and one person seemed to know him, and said, "It turned out to be the Quan Yingong Elder of Quanshui Village, and he was disrespectful." ”
"Spring Water Village?" These people were stunned for a moment, they really hadn't heard of this name, but there were thousands of walled cities in Baiyue Country, and it was normal for a small village to not hear of it. It's just that after Quan Yingong said this, everyone couldn't help but stay away from him.
Quan Yingong smiled at the man, and the two sat together. After Baifeng invited more than 30 people to the banquet that night, he met Chen Jingzhi alone, and then Chen Jingzhi secretly sneaked into the room where He Lao cultivated.
He Lao lost the red snake, and most of his mana had gone, and he was injured by Chen Jingzhi, and he was already asleep at this time.
Chen Jingzhi entered the room silently, He Lao's spell was very weird, according to Chen Jingzhi's understanding, it was not Yu Yutian's exercises here, it was very likely that it was obtained from the outside, and he wanted to know what it was. Chen Jingzhi looked around at the arrangement, and after there was no problem, his mind moved, and he immediately invaded He Lao's sea of knowledge.
He Lao was actually having a nightmare, howling and crying in the dream, it turned out that the red snake had been cultivated into a refinement, but He Lao had not been able to subdue it, and finally it was He Lao's wife who sacrificed herself to merge with the red snake, which became a strange spell. In the past few decades, He Lao has killed more than 100 people, just to cultivate this spell, the means are extremely cruel, and every time he kills people, he extracts his soul, which is painful.
Chen Jingzhi guided him to show the origin of the spell in his dream, and after a while, he frowned slightly, the spell that He Lao got came from a cave, and a white bone in the cave got a snake scale and a string of orbs, in addition to a treasure bag, but the magic bag could not be opened no matter what, so he discarded it.
Chen Jingzhi took out the snake scales and read it carefully, the words on it really came from outside the sky, ordinary people may not know it, but people in cultivation can understand the key from it, of course, how much they can comprehend depends on a person's understanding. The spell that He Lao comprehended is more specifically a fragment of a practice, it should be said that it is called the true method of soul seizing, but He Lao does not have the essence, not even the fur, and cannot reconcile the qi, which leads to endless troubles for him to practice this spell.
Seeing this, Chen Jingzhi had a bold idea, he was born with a talent for mental communication, he could invade the minds of others, and with a little guidance, he could know what the other party was thinking, if it could be combined with the true method of soul snatching, it should be able to play a miraculous effect. Thinking of this, Chen Jingzhi's face was overjoyed, and he looked at the snake scales again and again, and then put them away.
"Leaving this spell with you is not good for you or anyone else, so I took it. Chen Jingzhi put it away a little shamelessly, and once again used spells to guide He Lao, but this time he saw He Lao's purpose.
"Baiyue Kingdom still has such things?" Chen Jingzhi was a little unconvinced, in addition to wanting to cultivate spells to reconcile the yin and yang qi in his body and solve the problem of yin and yang imbalance, he also wanted to take this opportunity to see if he could find a magic weapon, as long as he had this magic weapon, he could be reincarnated, and he could still have memories of this life in the next life.
According to Chen Jingzhi's understanding, being able to have such a means is at least the likes of heavenly immortals, and Wanhuatian, where Chen Jingzhi is located, is only rumored to be immortal. He frowned and continued to investigate, there was not much worth paying attention to, but one thing was that not everyone could go to Baiyue Heavenly City, and he had to have a guarantor to enter the city, otherwise he would be killed by the people guarding the city.
Chen Jingzhi accepted the spell, and then went out quietly, and when he arrived at his room, Chen Ding immediately greeted him, Chen Jingzhi waved his hand and asked him to practice by himself, while Chen Jingzhi sat on the edge of the bed and silently practiced the mental method. At dawn, he felt that his martial arts had increased slightly, so he went out to perform martial arts according to Baifeng's arrangement.
Bai Feng and the others on the martial arts arena have already arrived, and all arrangements have been made. Chen Jingzhi's eyes swept away, and he found that there was a man in his fifties with a long beard and chest on Baifeng's side, wrapped in a gray robe, sitting on Baifeng's side, and Shilang treated Baifeng with a respectful look to him.
Chen Jingzhi's face was indifferent, and he no longer looked at it, this person's cultivation was at least the realm of Xiao Zhoutian, and his breath was quite mellow, no wonder Baifeng had no fear. At this time, he felt the gray-clothed man's gaze towards him, and he pretended not to know, and sat down in his seat according to Baifeng's arrangement.
The gray-clothed man looked at Chen Jingzhi in the direction known to Baifeng, then retracted his gaze, nodded slightly, and said, "Calm and unhurried, chic and calm, this person is not bad, and he is considered a first-class among the more than thirty people." I just don't know where he came from, and it won't look good if he brings it back and provokes a commotion. ”
Bai Feng shook his head lightly and said, "Uncle, although this time it is said that it is to recruit talents for the lord of the country, but it is more of our Bai Clan, if this person can't be used, then kill him in the secret place now, if it can be subdued, it will be a big help." Now Gu Mucheng refuses to help, and I can't support it alone, otherwise I wouldn't have made this idea. ”
"I can only mention you on the one hand, this time you are also in danger in the clan, it is best to be able to recruit capable people and contribute to you, so that you can have the best of both worlds. The man in gray sighed, "We can't help you, but we won't hold you back, if you really decide, you can do it with confidence." I know that one step behind is one step behind, and you don't want to watch the head of the family take the place of your brother. ”
Bai Feng clenched his fists and said in a serious voice, "What is that Huangkou child's ability? Isn't it because of the strength of his mother's clan? I am confident that I will be ten times better than him, uncle, you can rest assured, I will definitely take the position of the head of the family." ”
The gray-clothed man nodded with satisfaction, "You can't be in a hurry, you have to think long-term." As he spoke, he looked at Chen Jingzhi and the others, "Let them play, I'll see how capable they are." ”
Baifeng nodded, and immediately ordered someone to arrange a fight. More than 30 people gathered here, and the various guards seemed to be a little crowded in the martial arts arena. There are more than 30 people, only Chen Jingzhi does not need to participate in the first round of the competition, the other one-on-one competitions, the winner can stay, and the loser will stay for himself, leave his own usefulness, and leave with a reward.
In more than an hour, more than 30 people have already decided the winner, and now there are only 18 people left. The man in gray had already watched everyone's competition, his face was expressionless, and he just arranged the rankings casually, and according to this ranking, there could be different rewards. After a while, the man in gray handed the roster to Baifeng.
Baifeng swept it at a glance, and sure enough, Chen Jingzhi was listed first, and the second place was actually a person who made a famous work, he was a little surprised, but he had no objection, he just said, "Uncle, I am ready to continue to recruit people." These people are far from enough. ”
The man in gray said noncommittally, "It's been half a month, and everyone who can come has already come, and the others don't want to come, you can't force it." ”
Baifeng just snorted, and immediately gave the roster to the servants, instructing them to invite all these people over, regardless of whether they won or lost. When these men sat down, they were given rewards according to their ranks, either gold and silver cloth, or salt and grain.
"Hmm, why does this person have so many rewards?" A person glanced at Chen Jingzhi and saw that his table was full of gold, silver, and medicinal herbs, and there were several silk cloths.
"Yes, Chen Sanlang didn't participate in a round of competition, how can there be a reward?" another person exclaimed, "This is not in accordance with the rules." ”
After speaking, many people glanced at the other winners, and saw that their faces were all a little bad, how many of them were there, which made people dissatisfied, they were also victorious, but the things they got were different, which really slapped them in the face.
As soon as these people shouted, a bearded man stood up and said, "General Shilang, this Chen Sanlang brother didn't participate, so he didn't deserve so much reward." ”
"The lord of the village is right, Shilang also thinks that this distribution is inappropriate, we are both victorious, why do I have less reward than everyone else?" another balding man exclaimed, "This is not fair. ”
Baifeng laughed and said, "You misunderstood, I am rewarded according to the ranking, the higher the ranking is naturally more, and the lower is of course less, which is understandable." This is the Master Lu Dong, the cultivation is profound, and it is judged by the Master Lu Dong, and I don't think there will be a problem. ”
"Does General Shilang mean that we are all inferior to this Chen Sanlang brother?" these people said with anger in their hearts when they heard this.
These words made everyone else feel the same way, and they also knew that Chen Jing was powerful, but they definitely didn't think that they could beat everyone here, so they asked one after another. And Chen Jingzhi's old god was sitting in the distance, throwing a few pieces of gold and silver in his hand, and handed them to Chen Ding casually, this behavior made them even more annoyed, and looked directly at Shi Lang and Baifeng.
Bai Feng laughed, and then said in a loud voice, "Master Lu Dong has already judged just now, and Brother Chen Sanlang is indeed the first. If you have any doubts, you can challenge the Chen Sanlang brothers, and if you can win, then the rewards of the two will be exchanged, and I will reward you again. ”
"What? can it be like this?" the men buzzed, talking to each other. These people suddenly forgot about Chen Jingzhi's first thing.
Chen Jingzhi couldn't help but glance at Shi Lang Jiang Baifeng, originally thought that he had no brains, but he didn't expect that he was also very good at using people's hearts, which would not lead to these outsiders forming a party, but also enhance the competitiveness of these people, and constantly drive these people to fight for it, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone. It is obvious that Chen Jingzhi himself is the bait that Baifeng uses to motivate them.
Shiro continued with Hyakure, "What I just said also applies to the future, a daily competition, and the final ten rankings will be decided after half a month. After that, go to Baiyue Heavenly City for another half a month, and decide the first person, then you will be recommended to enter the eyes of the lord of the country, you must take advantage of the opportunity. ”
