I'm looking for longevity in Liaozhai

Chapter 177 Whereabouts of Innate Gold
"Check carefully and report."

"As ordered."

Mao Gang faded away slowly, only Xiao Guang was left in the imperial study.

He stood at the door, looking at the gloomy sky outside, wondering what he was thinking.

On the road thousands of miles away, Wang Zhe met an interesting person with Laifu.

A monk, wearing a tattered monk's robe, was distributing food to some ragged people on the side of the road.

The food is very simple, it is bread.

He always had a bread in his hand, which he kept breaking apart and distributing to each one, and each person only divided half or smaller.

It seems that the ground in his hand will be divided infinitely.

The people who were distributed the pancakes were all grateful to him

The monk had a kind face, with a simple and honest smile.

After realizing that Wang Zhe had been staring at him, he lowered his head, seeming a little shy.

Wang Zhe found that his shoes were also broken, and his toes were exposed.

"Interesting monk." He passed by the monk with Laifu, and saw that there was still half a pancake in his hand.

"Does the donor want to eat the cake?" The monk noticed that Wang Zhe was staring at him, so he broke open a small half and handed it to Wang Zhe.

"No, thank you."

It was just a small episode, and Wang Zhe didn't take it to heart.

In the next month, Wang Zhe took Laifu and Tuanzi all over the country, seeing three mountains, five mountains, and all corners of the country.

saw various landscapes,
I saw the suffering in the world, saw some monks, and subdued some demons.

The world is becoming more and more chaotic, and some rebels have already appeared.

Along the way, Wang Zhe is also looking for a place suitable for his practice.

It's a pity that in some famous mountains and rivers, there are already various schools of practice or mountain monks.

He thought about practicing on that mountain for a while before finding a suitable place to practice.

For the past month, he has also been inquiring about the news of the innate gold, but to no avail.

"Have you heard that the King of Chu is recruiting talents, why don't we try?"

"With our little cultivation, I'm afraid it won't work, right?"

"I heard that it doesn't matter whether you are high or low, or your status is high or low, you are hired on a merit basis."

"I heard that King Yu Ding appeared outside Jiangcheng a few years ago. Is this a hint from the heavens that the King of Chu has the possibility of becoming a great treasure?"

Wang Zhe, who was in a county town, heard the conversation between several monks.

"My lord?" Wang Zhe was slightly taken aback when he heard the words.

"Well, the news from him should be very well-informed."

Jiangcheng, the throat of water and land transportation, has always been an important place for military strategists to contend for.

In the past few days, Jiangcheng City has been very busy. In addition to pedestrians, there are also some monks coming and going.

They all came here admiringly after hearing that the King of Chu was recruiting talents.

"If his old man hears about this recruiting, I don't know what he will think." Wang Zhe stood in Jiangcheng City, looking at the monks.

They followed them to a Zhuangzi in Jiangcheng, where the king of Chu recruited talents.

People came here one after another, mostly monks.

"In Wang Ansheng, I am at the sixth rank, and I am willing to do the work of a dog and a horse for the prince."

"Welcome, welcome, here is some money, Your Excellency, keep it." The little official in charge of receiving these people was very polite to everyone.

No matter who comes, they will get a small gift.

The gifts are very simple, they are bank notes and pills.

300 taels of silver is not a quality pill, but it is also a good thing for many casual practitioners in the Jianghu.

The key is to have someone to rely on. If you perform well in the future, you will be rewarded with exercises and elixir.

This is a thousand dollars for a bone,

On the second-floor attic not far away, two people sat opposite each other, drinking tea, and watching the people coming and going below.

"Although the prince's move can bring him a good name, it also has hidden dangers. These people are mixed with fish and dragons, and they must have eyes and ears elsewhere."

"This is a conspiracy. It is upright and upright. It is unavoidable for some thieves to get involved. Didn't a second-rank expert come to vote a few days ago?"

Wang Zhe led the dogs, lined up, and looked around.

"I don't know what to call this friend, what level of cultivation." When it was his turn, the little official was very polite.

"Wang Zhe, first grade."

"What?!" The clerk froze for a moment.The monks nearby were also stunned.

"What did he just say? First-rank, he is the best first-rank?"

"how is this possible?"

"Is this optimistic about King Chu?"

"Sir, please wait a moment." The clerk left in a hurry and ran into the attic.

In the attic, two people are still drinking tea.

The little official came up in a hurry.

"Report to the two adults, here comes a top-ranking person."

"What?!" The two were also stunned.

"Go, hurry up and follow me to meet you."

The two hurried downstairs and came to Wang Zhe's side.

"I'm Wu Enbo."

"I'm Liu Cheng'en."

"Welcome sir."

The two invited Wang Zhe to the backyard.

"Your Excellency is the best?"

Wang Zhe just smiled, and the magic power from his body came out, and the expressions of the two changed in horror.

This kind of coercion is unmistakable!
"Great, I unexpectedly attracted a first-rank decision!"

The two were overjoyed in their hearts, and then they were deeply puzzled.

Why are these people willing to come here to serve the King of Chu?

"Sir, you used to work for the King of Chu, but what are your requirements?"

"Yes, I'm looking for something and I want to ask the king of Chu for help." Wang Zhe didn't hide it either.

"what?"

"Innate gold."

"Innate gold?" The two looked at each other.

"Do you have a place to live, sir?"

"Just arrived in Jiangcheng."

"We happen to have a house here. If you don't dislike it, you can live there first, how about it?"

"Okay."

Then Wu Enbo took Wang Zhe to a house, a manor in Nuo Da, with waterside pavilions, rockery and lotus ponds.

"Sir, are you satisfied?"

"It's enough to have a place to live. It's a waste for me to live in such a big place by myself."

"Mr. is humble."

Wu Enbo is arranging Wang Zhe's residence here.On the other side, Liu Chengen has already arrived at the Chu Palace and met the Chu King.

"My lord."

"Cheng'en is here, sit down."

"My lord, today we recruited a top-notch man."

"What, the top grade?" The king of Chu in plain clothes stood up immediately after hearing the words.

As a prince, he has seen a lot, so he naturally knows how rare it is to be a top-ranking prince.

"What did he ask for?"

"He said he was looking for innate gold."

"It's a coincidence that this king knows the whereabouts of the congenital gold." The king of Chu slapped the table when he heard this.

"Let's go, let's meet this top-notch."

In that huge manor, Wang Zhe was wandering around the yard with Laifu.

Then Wu Enbo arranged some servants for him, but he sent them away.

"Laifu, what do you think of this Zhuangzi?"

wow,

"Normal, this is average, your requirements are quite high." Wang Zhe said with a smile.

"Hopefully this time it will pay off."

"Is sir there, sir?"

Just as he was wandering in the yard, he heard someone shouting, and he took Laifu to look for the direction of the sound.

Seeing Wu Enbo, there is also an imposing middle-aged man in his 30s, with a square face, thick eyebrows, and walking like a tiger.

"Mr. Wang, this is the King of Chu."

"I have seen the king."

"You don't have to be polite, sir. I woke up this morning and heard magpies calling on the wall outside. I guessed something good was going to happen. I didn't expect that it was sir who came to Jiangcheng."

"To be honest, this King really knows about the innate gold that you want to inquire about."

"Oh, I don't know where it is?"

"There is a piece of Xiantian Gengjin in the west, in the Buddhist Kingdom of Wanli, in the Daguangming Temple."

"Oh, there!" Wang Zhe frowned slightly after hearing this.

Now he is not what he used to be, and he has naturally heard a lot about the world of practice during his travels around the world.

The Western Regions is a Buddhist kingdom of thousands of miles, and the most famous Buddhist temple is the Da Guangming Temple.

The host of Daguang Temple is even more profound in Buddhism, and is a living Buddha.

Obviously, it is extremely difficult to obtain that Innate Gold from them.

"In addition to the Da Guangming Temple in the Western Regions, this king also knows the whereabouts of a piece of congenital gold, which is in the Wanbao Pavilion in the capital." The King of Chu said truthfully.

"The capital city, Wanbao Pavilion, that place is even more guarded against Xenya than Daguangming Temple in the Western Regions."

"Thank you, my lord, for these two messages." Wang Zhe cupped his hands.

"Sir, do you want this congenital gold to refine magic weapons?"

"It does have a magical effect."

"The innate gold in the Da Guangming Temple in the Western Region is indeed difficult to obtain. After all, it is far away from here, and it is also a Buddhist kingdom thousands of miles away. It is the one in the capital. If the master wants it, I can think of a way.

In addition, the king has already arranged to order people to inquire about the news of Xiantian Jin. "

"Thank you, my lord."

"Hey, it's my king's honor to be here, sir." Chu Wang said with a smile, without the slightest airs, giving people the feeling of spring breeze, like a big brother next door.

"Sir, stay here first. I don't dare to say that I am [-]% sure about the innate gold capital, but I will try my best to help you."

"Then there will be Lord Lao."

That night, the king of Chu specially invited Wang Zhe to a banquet, which was an article that was full of respect for corporals.

It's late at night, and people haven't calmed down yet.

Chu Palace, in the study.

The king of Chu sat on the grand master's chair, closed his eyes and concentrated.

Sitting opposite him was a middle-aged man with a three-strand beard and a slightly fat body.

"Sir, I just got the news that in the capital, the list of gods is already available, and they first sealed the soul of a second-rank monk into it.

Later, he successfully sent a first-rank master into the list of gods.

If the soul has entered the list of gods, isn't that at the mercy of others? "

"My lord, did you find out what conditions are needed?"

"If it is a living person, it needs the person's name, date of birth, and other things, I don't know for the time being.

If it is killed directly, the soul can also be granted the list of gods, and the soul can be immortal. "

"It sounds good to say that the soul is immortal, but it doesn't sound good, it is a thug without a body. Whoever holds the list of gods and beats the whip, he has to listen to him."

"Now it's the first grade, so what's the next step, Human Immortal?"

"My lord, it will definitely not be so easy to use the list of gods," said the man beside him.

"The more powerful the magic weapon, the more stringent the conditions for using it. If you can forcibly write a top-notch talisman on the list of gods just based on its name and birth date, then the price must be very high!"

"Oh, maybe one day, I will also be on the list of gods!"

"Your Majesty is worrying too much. Your Majesty should use that magic weapon to contain those places outside the imperial court." The man took a sip of tea.

"What the prince wants to leave now is to take good care of this Jiangcheng land and recruit talented people."

"Speaking of virtuous talents, today a top-notch talent has entered the talent recruitment certificate."

"Yipin?" The gentleman was also taken aback after hearing this.

"It's unmistakable, it's first-class." King Chu nodded.

"What about the request?"

"Innate gold."

"Okay, it's good to have a request." The gentleman nodded.

"Yeah, if he came to vote for me without any request, then I should be worried, but it's really unusual for him to ask for this thing!"

"There are very few congenital things, no matter who gets them, they will treasure them. Does the prince know the whereabouts of this congenital gold?"

"I know, there are two pieces. One is in the Daguangming Temple in the Western Regions, and the other is in the Wanbao Pavilion in the capital. In fact, the piece in the capital is also a tribute from the Western Regions." King Chu took a sip of tea from his teacup.

"I heard that innate gold is the best material for refining magic weapons. Just add a little to ordinary weapons, and it can immediately become a magical weapon. Could it be that the person wants to use innate gold to refine magic weapons?"

"He didn't say what he wants to use the innate gold for, and I didn't ask. If he wants it, I will find a way to get it, and I will compare my heart with my heart." Chu Wang said.

"In a few days, I will write a paper alone to see if the emperor can reward me with the innate gold."

"Also, if you can get the help of a top-notch person, it will be of great benefit to the prince."

"Guess, sir, who will Wu Zhengang attack next?"

"Fu Wang."

"Oh, so sure?"

"I'm just guessing. The seal on Wu Zhengang's left arm is in his fief, and his defense is the most lax."

The next morning, Wang Zhe went out early and wandered around Jiangcheng.

This city is one of the most powerful cities in the world.

Because it is a traffic hub, a major waterway, and there are many vendors coming and going.

These days, Wang Zhe feels that his temper is getting weaker and weaker, and he rarely takes things to heart.

It's kind of meaningless.

Just like now, he is in the flow of people coming and going, but he is a little out of place.

With a higher cultivation base, there are naturally fewer things worth noting.

In fact, this change has been going on, but these days, Wang Zhe's feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

"Perhaps one day, I will find a corner at the foot of the mountain to take with me, and just watch the clouds in the sky drift past one by one."

When Wang Zhe was staring at the sky in a daze,
A handsome young man next to him glanced at him, then looked up at the sky.

When he came back to his senses, the young man smiled at him.

"You were so engrossed in looking at the sky just now, what's there to see?" The young man smiled.

"Fried peanuts, do you want to eat?" Before reaching Wang Zhe, he stretched out his hand, and there were a dozen peanuts inside.

"No, thank you."
