Chapter 392 Big Chapter (39)

Chapter 9,
Why can it be so strong?

-

In a wine room, Xin Jue looked at Bai Songli who was sitting across from him with a flushed face and a swaying figure, and couldn't help laughing:

"If you can't drink, you have to show off."

Bai Songli supported the wine cup, rubbed his hot cheeks, and said unconvinced:

"I'm not drunk. It's just the tongue."

Xin Jue shook his head helplessly.After some conversations, he somewhat understood the boy's temperament.He has a strong heart and a little low self-esteem, but he is pure in heart and has no city, so he is a person worth dating.

Seeing this small wine house with refreshing decoration, Xin Jue praised:
"As expected of Middle Street, although the rent is twice as high, there is indeed a gap between Xiajie and this place."

"If I had set up a stall here, the previous incident probably wouldn't have happened." Bai Songli glanced at the people in the four seats, and found that their auras were all unusual, and said slightly drunk.

Indeed, as Bai Songli said, although the middle street is much smaller than the lower street, relatively speaking, most of the things that can be sold here are not ordinary, and the guards here are relatively It is very strict, and people like Hao Fan dare not make trouble here.

It's just that the rental conditions in Zhongjie are relatively strict, and the rent must be paid before the booth can be obtained.Naturally, Bai Songli, a poor guy, couldn't set up a stall here before.

"But the things here are too expensive, right? Two small bottles of wine and a plate of peanuts cost me two gold coins!" Bai Songli said, looking at his purse with distressed expression.

Seeing him looking like a miser, Xin Jue found it funny:

"It is said that people in the Buddha Land have always hated being contaminated with money, why are you so different?"

"It's just for survival." Bai Songli put away his purse and raised his wine glass with a heroic manner, as if he was going to drink it all down, but in the end he just took a sip.Sighing, looking at the ripples of the wine in the glass with some melancholy, asked,

"You said...money is dirty after passing through the hands of countless people?"

Although Bai Songli was a little drunk at the moment, the question he asked seemed to have been deposited in his heart for a long time.

Xin Jue picked up the chopsticks and picked up a peanut, put it in his mouth, and said while chewing:
"Although ** is very dirty, don't many people want to play?"

Bai Songli was taken aback for a moment, and asked curiously:
"What's the ****?"

Xin Jue gave him a disdainful look, but after thinking about it, this guy came from the Buddha Land, a place where money never circulated. It's not surprising that he had never heard of this.

"I won't explain this much, you will naturally understand it in the future. You just need to remember that this is a cancer that cannot be eradicated no matter what era it is."

"In this world, money is just a tool for survival. What we should do is to learn how to control it instead of being driven by it."

Hearing what Xin Jue said, Bai Songli nodded silently.

While the two were chatting, a burly young man suddenly stood at the door of the tavern, blocking most of the light outside the door.In the flickering light and shadow, the people in the room turned their eyes to the door in unison.

"It's him!"

After several old students in the room saw the face of the visitor, they started discussing in a low voice in surprise.

"Why is he reluctant to practice and come here... Could it be that he can't find an opponent to drink?"

"Don't you know? He is a regular visitor here. Besides, the lower court exam will be in a few months. Who dares to question his strength? Isn't it a sure thing to enter the middle court?"

……

"Dude, come to the altar Dukang!"

The man walked into the tavern, found an empty seat, and casually said something like thunder, echoing in the room for a long time, many drinking people frowned, but no one dared to come forward to express their dissatisfaction.

"Why are you so loud? You overturned my sister's wine shop, you go to a ghost place to drink for nothing!"

People who drink are afraid to speak, but people who don't drink lose their temper.The muscular young man just sat down, when he heard the woman's voice, he stood up with a swish.With a face full of embarrassment, he watched a slender woman come out from the backstage of the bar.

"Miss Mei."

Embarrassment is embarrassment, but this young man who looks very mature but is actually not very old still politely greeted the mature and beautiful woman in front of him, "Why did you slip out of the middle courtyard today?"

"Sneak your head! My sister wants to come to the Lower Court, will anyone dare to stop me?"

Mei Xiangren looked at this strong young man who was more than a head taller than herself, deliberately put on a cold face and hugged his chest, pretending to be angry, but in his heart he was very happy.

Because this young man is mature and stable, with extraordinary bearing, and is very attractive.The important thing is that she likes it very much.So he never had to pay to drink here.

This tavern was opened when she was studying in the lower courtyard. Although she has entered the middle courtyard, she is still the owner here.

Another important reason why she likes this robust young man in front of her is that this young man has an extremely resounding title in the House of Commons—the strongest in the House of Commons!
This title alone is enough to make many girls who love the strong yearn for it.

He is none other than the legend in Wei Fang's mouth, "Bill of Excellence"

No one can shake his position at the top of the list, the strongest in the House of Commons, Xiang Chen!

Bai Songli stared closely at the robust young man, with a deep and strong impulse in his eyes.

"Is he Senior Xiang Chen?"

Xin Jue nodded. "Just like I imagined, he is a man full of combat power. Very strong."

"I heard from the guys who robbed before that Senior Xiang Chen is just like you. He had the strength of a first-rank general just after he entered the Lower Court two years ago. Now that two years have passed, with his cultivation talent and invincible record At least, he should be at the level of a ninth-rank general." Bai Songli said, his eyes shone with excitement.

Xin Jue remained silent, in his opinion, this person's strength might be stronger than what Bai Songli guessed.Suddenly, Xin Jue noticed Xiang Chen's neck.Has a black tiger mark.

He couldn't help but put his right hand on his bandaged left arm.Because there is a similar mark on his left arm.

In the eyes of others, it may be something similar to a tattoo, but in fact only a very few people have it, and only a few people know that this imprint that is born with a lifetime actually seals various powers.

Practitioners on the mainland call these imprints: Xuanyin.

Different from Xiang Chen's tiger-shaped mysterious seal, the mark under the bandage on Xin Jue's left arm is a meat ball with four wings. People in the family call it:
emperor river.

If Xin Jue's guess is correct, Xiang Chen belongs to the kind of person with extremely strong physical strength.Because this is the characteristic of the tiger-shaped mysterious seal.And his Emperor Jiang Xuanyin has two main characteristics, one is extremely fast, and the other is extremely powerful.

From this point of view, at least half of the reason why Xiang Chen was able to stand at the top of the lower court without falling down was due to the existence of Xuan Yin.

However, since ancient times, fortune and misfortune depend on each other.Although people with Xuanyin can walk more easily on the journey of cultivation, they are also much more dangerous than ordinary people.Perhaps one day, a person with a mysterious seal will never wake up after falling asleep.

Because someone discovered that the power of Xuan Yin can be forcibly stripped from the body of the deity and implanted into another human body.As a result, in the past hundred years, there have been countless incidents in which people with mysterious seals were forcibly stripped of their mysterious seals and left dead in the wilderness.

So there were fewer and fewer mysterious seals on the mainland, but fortunately, as time passed, the method of capturing the mysterious seals was gradually lost.The "Xuanyin tragedy" that once turmoiled the entire continent has finally come to an end.

Now, nearly a hundred years have passed since that bloody case, and no one has ever heard of anyone's mysterious seal being forcibly stripped.However, Xuan Yin is still extremely rare, and very few people can recognize it.

"What kind of light is that in your eyes? Is it admiration or excitement?" When Xin Jue turned his head to look at Bai Songli, he found that the light in his eyes was even brighter, as if it was about to burst out. The same sex is more interested, right?"

Bai Songli was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Xin Jue as if he was mentally retarded, and said flatly: "Boss and labor like women."

"Then why do you stare at other people so directly?"

"Because I want to become stronger!" Bai Songli looked at Xiang Chen who was chatting with the beautiful woman again, the light in his eyes did not become stronger, but gradually shrank.He picked up the jug, raised his head and took a sip. The stimulation from the tip of his tongue made his face turn red, but his eyes returned to calm. "I want to ask him why he can be so strong..."

"Then you should go!"

Xin Jue poured a glass of wine with a smile and drank it down.

But Bai Songli didn't move, he fiddled with the peanuts on the plate unnaturally.

Xin Jue knew without thinking, he must be embarrassed.

"Why can you be so strong... Maybe you don't need to ask deliberately. Everyone has different ways to become strong, and each has his own way. If a person wants to become strong, he must first firmly believe that he can become strong, and secondly, he should Clearly understand your own strengths and weaknesses, and know where you should work hard. In the end, you must persevere in doing what you should do to become a strong person."

Xin Jue said quite maturely, Bai Songli listened very carefully.

"Tell me specifically about you. Although you have worked so hard, you have to admit that there are indeed high and low cultivation talents or aptitudes. Although your talent in Huaxi cultivation is not bad, it has nothing to do with you. Compared with the talents in formation cultivation, there is still a huge gap. So I suggest that you focus on formation cultivation. However, Huaxi cultivation cannot be ignored, and how to grasp the speed of the two is up to you to decide."

Bai Songli thought about it for a long time, and nodded in agreement, "I almost forgot, isn't the person in front of me a master in Huaxi cultivation, why bother to go far and ask Senior Xiang Chen."

Xin Jue waved his hands with a smile and said, "Thank you, thank you."

Bai Songli drank the wine in the glass and stood up.

"Although what you said is right. But no matter what, the most important thing is to seize the time to practice! I will take my leave first, and we will get together later when we have time."

Xin Jue nodded and watched Bai Songli leave the bar.He drank the rest of the wine by himself, a little drunk, and prepared to leave the bar.

"This little brother, wait a minute!"

Before reaching the door of the restaurant, Xin Jue heard a woman's voice suddenly coming from behind him, but he didn't think the other party was calling him, so he walked towards the outside of the room without stopping.

"Bro?"

The woman's voice sounded again, Xin Jue finally stopped, and turned around to find that someone was indeed calling him.That person is none other than the woman who talked to Xiang Chen just now, the hostess of the tavern, Mei Xiangren.

"Is there something wrong, senior?" Xin Jue asked politely as she looked at this gorgeous and mature beauty in a long skirt with occasional jade legs.

"Look at your attire, are you a freshman just recruited today?" Mei Xiangren looked at this ordinary-looking boy with deep-eyed eyes with a smile.

Xin Jue nodded lightly, but secretly admired in his heart, the beauty really looks good when she smiles.

"Dare to ask me, what's your name?"

"Xin formula. Hard work Xin, secret formula.

"

"Xin Jue, hard work is the secret to success. It's a good name." The beauty's smile was sweet, and her words were even sweeter. "Xin Jue, do you think the wine in our wine shop still suits your appetite?"

Xin Jue thought to himself, although the wine here is a little expensive, but the taste is quite strong, the taste is warm and mellow, and the aftertaste is soft, it can be regarded as innocent.So he nodded and said:
"The wine here is the same as the appearance and appearance of the senior sister, it is indeed unforgettable."

"Huh?" Mei Xiangren didn't expect Xin Jue to praise herself at the same time as she praised the wine.He covered his mouth and laughed lightly.While laughing, he secretly glanced at Xiang Chen who was beside him, and found that he glanced at Xin Jue with a displeased face, and couldn't help but feel even happier.

"Young brother is too famous. The homemade wine has been kept in the lower court of Tai Cang Court because of the favor of all the guests. Xiaomei thanked all the guest officials here today." Mei Xiangren's voice was suddenly too high, while saying this, At the same time, he gave a thank you ceremony to everyone in the four seats.The people who were sitting and drinking suddenly let out a sound of admiration in return.

Xin Jue stood aside, touched his nose, and watched the woman deal with the guests with ease.As the son of a businessman, although he can see some shortcomings, but this senior from the middle school is not very old, and it is quite good to be able to do this.

Mei Xiangren turned around and looked at Xin Jue again.

"Senior sister, what's your order? I will do my best." Xin Jue thought that the other party would never leave her just to thank her for visiting her tavern.Presumably there is something I want to ask myself, so I said it quite directly.

"Hehehe... The younger brother speaks so frankly. But don't pay too much attention to it, it's actually not a big deal," Mei Xiangren stroked her black hair lightly, her eyes wavered slightly, she smiled and bowed to Xin Jue as a lady, and went on Said, "My sister just hopes that junior Xin Jue can help me promote the situation of our wine house among the freshmen. If possible, in the future, if you bring your friends to drink with us, our wine house will give you a [-]% discount."

After speaking, he smiled sweetly again.

After saying this, Xin Jue naturally understood what she meant.Without even thinking about it, I agreed.It's not a loss-making business, and there is absolutely no need to refuse.

After Xin Jue left, Xiang Chen asked calmly:

"With Sister Mei's ability, the reputation of the tavern will spread among the freshmen sooner or later. Why do you have to commit yourself to such a glib guy?"

Mei Xiangren smiled lightly and sat across from Xiang Chen again:
"How can freshmen sweep the world if they don't sweep? Besides, what's wrong with being glib, my sister likes glib and sweet-talking men, what's the matter, you're not convinced, or you can tell me a few words?"

Although Xiang Chen's face was not so handsome, but still attractive, there was some strange blush.As if to hide some panic, he drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.

"You have big breasts, and what you said is right!" Xiang Chen said loudly with the gall, and immediately attracted the intriguing gazes of the people sitting around.

Mei Xiangren blushed, but she didn't care about him. She dragged her cheeks with her hands and watched the changes in his expression with a smile, thinking it was very interesting.

"Hey," Mei Xiangren raised the small cup, tapped her cherry lips, and asked in a low voice, "Tell the truth to my sister, have you arrived yet?"

Xiang Chen smiled slightly, but did not answer.

But even if he didn't say it clearly, Mei Xiangren had already guessed the answer.

"Oh~ I'm so angry."

She pursed her mouth and looked at Xiang Chen with resentful eyes, "He was in the middle school for a year and only broke through to rank nine general and promoted to lower marquis. Compared with you, I look like an idiot. "

Xiang Chen grinned and comforted: "But you are stronger than me now, that's a fact. And women should hide behind men and be protected, and don't need to pursue how powerful they are."

After hearing this, Mei Xiangren was immediately unhappy, and retorted:

"Who said that we women should only be protected, we also have people or things we want to protect, okay? I don't like to be a weak woman who has no power to restrain a chicken and can only rely on others."

Looking at her serious expression, Xiang Chen was a little speechless.He drank in silence and didn't argue with her on this topic.

Mei Xiangren looked at the tiger mark on his neck, and Qingling's laughter suddenly rang out.

"What are you laughing at?" Xiang Chen was taken aback by her sudden laughter, and looked at her smiling face with some annoyance.

Mei Xiangren pointed to Xiang Chen's neck:
"My sister has always wanted to ask, but she didn't dare to ask, why do you, a big man, stab a cat on the neck?"

Xiang Chen blushed, and argued in a thunderous voice:

"It's not a cat, it's a tiger! And it's not a thorn, it's born with it!"

As soon as he said these words, the wine room suddenly fell silent.Many people snorted in dissatisfaction, but Mei Xiangren's complexion suddenly became serious.Then without saying a word, he pulled Xiang Chen up and was about to go backstage.

Xiang Chen only felt that he was being held tightly by a pair of tender little hands, and a little shyly followed Mei Xiangren to a corner where there was no one in the backstage.

Mei Xiangren lowered her voice and looked at Xiang Chen solemnly:

"Do you trust my sister?"

Looking at the extremely rare solemn expression on Mei Xiangren's face, Xiang Chen faintly realized something.Nodding without hesitation:

"Of course I do."

"Since you believe me, then you have to promise me," Mei Xiangren stretched out her hand, caressing the tiger print on Xiang Chen's neck with a bewildered expression, and said softly, "Although maybe that kind of thing won't happen again. ...But you still have to promise me, don't tell anyone you don't trust that the mark on your neck is natural, you hear me!"

-

Unconsciously, it was almost dusk, Xin Jue walked out of the tavern, looked at the fiery red clouds in the sky, took advantage of the wine, and was not in a hurry to go back to the residence, but continued to wander in the middle street.

His close-fitting dagger was damaged in the fight with Zheng Cheng today, so he wanted to see if there was any weapon he could take advantage of in the weapon shop here.

Walking into an unremarkable weapon shop, Xin Jue found that the shop was not only small, but also rather deserted.There are only five weapons hanging on the walls of the shop.

And no one came in here to look.

But Xin Jue often likes to visit these unremarkable shops.

The owner of the shop is a young man who looks rough.Has fluffy hair and wears a pair of wire-rimmed glasses.Sitting in front of an old red lacquered table, he carefully measured something with an iron ruler.Xin Jue walked up to him, but without raising his head, he just said lightly:

"Buy it when you see it, and leave if you don't."

Xin Jue was a little surprised. As the son of a businessman, he understood the truth that business is won with kind words.He didn't expect this young man selling weapons to be so straightforward.If it was a normal person, he would have scolded him for not knowing what is good or bad, then flung his sleeves and left.But Xin Jue is obviously not a normal person at all.Because he has always believed that these strange people often have unsimple thinking.

Instead of talking to the boss again, he focused on the five weapons on the wall.

Hanging on the wall are a broadsword, a short knife, a spear, a long whip, and a rusty iron sword.

Chapter 11,
Living in a shabby room, wishing to hear the flute

-

Xin Jue is a first-class formation master, with Emperor Jiangxuan seal on his left arm, and an extremely rare gifted spirit statue on his body.However, he did not have much research on weapon identification.

But apart from the rusty iron sword, Xin Jue could feel the extraordinary materials and craftsmanship of the other four weapons from the hidden patterns on them.

Because of his gifted spirit, he practiced the use of halberds diligently since he was a child.Over the past ten years, his halberd has been used superbly.It was just because it was inconvenient to carry, and his father did not allow him to use the storage ring in order to exercise his independence, so before he came to Tai Cang Yuan, he specially practiced the use of the sword. It cannot be compared with his natal weapon - the halberd.

Although he is interested in weapons such as knives and guns, he has no time to practice.For self-defense, the best choice is naturally the rusty iron sword in the middle.

The iron sword is rusted, which is actually nothing special.The problem is that the rusty iron sword is still sold by the shopkeeper and placed in the most conspicuous position.Is there something extraordinary about it?

"How do you sell this sword?" Xin Jue turned around and asked the young shopkeeper who was still drawing the diagram of the weapon's structure with his head bowed.

Hearing that Xin Jue was interested in the rusty sword, the young shopkeeper's pen paused, only to move again after a while.He said without lifting his head:
"Fifty gold coins."

"Five... fifty gold coins?!"

Xin Jue was surprised and annoyed. No matter how unique a rusty sword was, it couldn't possibly be worth fifty gold coins.Fifty gold coins was enough for him to squander in the House of Commons for several months.What's more, he only has fifty gold coins left on him now. If he buys this sword, he will drink the northwest wind.You can't go to Bai Songli to get the money back.

"Leave if you don't buy, I don't want to hear your nonsense." The young shopkeeper said bluntly without giving Xin Jue a chance to argue.

Xin Jue was at a loss for words.He looked at the rusted iron sword on the wall, and then at the young man who hadn't raised his head from the beginning to the end. It stands to reason that he should immediately shake his sleeves and leave, but for some reason, he always felt that there was something wrong with the iron sword. Magic power, the more you look at that iron sword, the more pleasing it is.

After struggling for a long time, Xin Jue gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble.

"Bought it!"

Xin Jue's voice was not loud at all, but it was extraordinarily loud and resolute in this slightly quiet evening.

The young shopkeeper finally stopped the pen in his hand, raised his head and looked at the young man with a slightly immature face.After a long silence, he asked lightly:
"how old are you?"

Xin Jue responded, walked to the rusty iron sword, did not take off the sword directly, but habitually stroked the sword from the hilt to the grid and then to the blade lightly.What he didn't expect was that when his hand touched the rust, the iron sword seemed to tremble slightly.

Xin Jue withdrew his hand in surprise, but when he touched the rust again, the iron sword did not move at all. Xin Jue thought that it might be an illusion caused by his love for the gold coins just now.

"Don't talk nonsense with my old lady, get out!"

Xin Jue hadn't realized what "old lady" meant, but felt a gust of wind blowing in front of him, and he didn't know where he was blown.

The young shopkeeper looked at the direction where Xin Jue was blown away, picked up the money bag on the table and threw it in that direction.

After throwing it away, she seemed to be still angry, and pouted with her chest folded, assuming an angry girlish attitude.

"Small, young, but aggressive in speaking, with a hidden edge..."

"Cough cough..."

Ju Dongxiao was silent. As a super strong person, she saw through Xin Jue's strength at the first sight.

She didn't understand why Xin Jue wanted to hide her strength, but she respected Xin Jue's decision and didn't tell Chen Guo the truth.

"Starting tomorrow, these four people will be taught directly by you."
