It was almost dark, and Qiu Ji got off the sedan, holding a brocade box, and hurriedly walked to the treasury.
After the guard outside the first door verified his identity, he took a few steps closer and walked into the inner room. He began to apologize from afar: "Master Jiang, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long! I was in the palace asking for orders and documents. It took a lot of time to get here!"
He is one of the eight eunuchs who serve as the Superintendent of Ceremonies, and his status in the palace is not inferior to that of the other eight eunuchs. Only in this way can one be qualified to get the key to the treasury.
Although there is no comparison with the eunuch Han Ling, he is also a relatively high-ranking figure among the internal officials.
He apologized as soon as they met, and explained the reason for his late arrival in a few words, which is very typical of his handling style.
Logically speaking, the internal official system has nothing to do with external officials, and there is no need for him to be so polite to a fourth-grade Qingpai. However, the title of "Prodigy of the Country" is hard to say. He may reach any position in the future.
The treasury guard guarding the gate was not surprised, and he only kept his thoughts deep in his heart.
Jiang Wang withdrew from the contemplation of the art of the fire world. He was no longer anxious after waiting all afternoon, and smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. I know that some rules take a lot of time to follow."
The internal official who appeared in front of him was a bit thin, but had gentle features and a rosy complexion. His cultivation level should be good, and his status in the palace should not be much worse.
Jiang Wang did not look up and down rudely, but after taking one look at him, he looked calmly into his eyes.
"It would be great if you can understand!" Qiu Ji said with a smile: "Then let's go in now without delaying your practice."
"Please go first." Jiang Wang said politely.
Speaking of which, Qiu Ji had seen a lot of high-ranking officials and children from famous families, but it was still rare to find someone as calm and unarrogant as Jiang Wang.
He could see that the other party was not forced to be gentle because of his lack of background. On the contrary, he has a certain self-confidence, as if he is ready to face everything at any time, so he can be so calm.
As the Supervisor of Ceremonies, Eunuch Bingbi had many opportunities to go out of the palace to do business. Among the people he has met, there are also those who came from a poor background but became famous in one fell swoop. They often want to prove themselves more than the others, especially those who cannot bear to be treated lightly.
Jiang Qingyang is really different.
But these thoughts only existed in Qiu Ji's mind.
After Qiu Ji arrived here, he took out the seal and verified his identity. Only then could the second door of the treasury be opened. But I didn't see the gatekeeper, I don't know where he was hiding.
Following Qiu Ji, after entering, he saw an iron wall with various unnamed strange beasts embossed on it. There are lanes on both sides and corners.
They keep to the left.
What Qiu Ji held in the brocade box was half of the order seal. The other half, in the hands of the guardian of the "Shu Library", needed to be mobilized with the help of the writing issued by the Supervisor of Ceremonies - this is also what Qiu Ji said "requesting orders and writing" It takes a lot of time."
Jiang Wang followed the eunuch Bingbi and let him face various tests.
All in all, it was a confusing and tedious process, and finally we reached the door of the corresponding magic library.
After the seals of Qiu Ji and the guardian of the magic library were combined, the door of the magic library slowly opened.
It is not as tall and grand as imagined.
There are only rows of stone shelves, filled with books of various sizes and materials. Of course, there are also some jade sticks, jade slips, bamboo slips and the like.
Classify them into categories and arrange them neatly one by one.
There is no dust. The collections here are regularly maintained, replaced, and supplemented, and the large and small protective arrays here are enough to ensure that they will last for a long time.
"This is where the arsenal of techniques at the Inner Palace level is located." Qiu Ji introduced: "You can choose from among them."
The guardian of this magic library is wrapped in armor and can't see anything except a pair of eyes. He didn't say a word, just silently followed Qiu Ji and Jiang Wang. It seemed that he was just supervising.
Of course it's nice to have options, but there are so many choices that it can be confusing...
Jiang Wang looked around for a while, but didn't see the type of secret technique he wanted.
Qiu Ji stood aside and suddenly smiled and said: "Before I came here, I had a little understanding of the magic here. If Sir Jiang believes in me, you might as well tell me your request."
"This couldn't be better! I certainly believe in my father-in-law." Of course, Jiang Wang had no reason to refuse, and immediately said sincerely: "I want a pupil technique."
Qiu Ji smiled, and without hesitation, he walked forward and walked to the twenty-seventh row of bookshelves before he stopped and said, "These are all eye skills at the inner palace level."
Jiang Wang came over and took a look. Sure enough, the row of stone bookshelves contained various secrets on eye skills.
No matter whether it is a book or a jade sign, it is natural that direct reading is not allowed. For many practitioners, if they have seen it, they have learned it.
However, next to each pupil technique, there is a wooden plaque, which roughly records the origin and approximate effect of the secret technique.
For example, on the bamboo slip in front of Jiang Wang, there is a writing on the wooden tablet: "Obtained by defeating Yang, the Yang Family's Burning Blood Red Eyes Inner Palace Chapter, the technique of attack."
What a wonderful fate...
Jiang Wang participated in the battle to destroy Yang and was awarded a title for his military merits. Now, in the treasury of Qi State, I see the Yangguo royal family’s pupil technique secret book. It seems that there is a kind of entanglement somewhere.
Of course, this pupil technique was not to his liking.
The Yangguo royal family's secret technique is definitely not weak if it is weak. However, Jiang Wang's priority right now is to use the pupil technique similar to Li Longchuan's Zhuwei magical power to complement the voice-hearing immortal state and complete the "knowledge" part.
But with so many secret techniques, I looked at them one by one, but I don’t know when they were gone...
Jiang Wang sighed in his heart and searched silently with his eyes.
Qiu Ji, who was observing his words, smiled again and said, "You might as well tell me what type of eye surgery Lord Jiang needs, or if you have any more specific requirements. I know a little about this place."
Jiang Wang did not reject this kindness. He had already thought about his needs and said directly: "I need pupil skills to strengthen my ability to see. Under this category, priority will be given to pupil skills with greater potential."
It is required to have potential, and naturally it is to prepare for the deduction of the stage. Although Jiang Wang has never learned the pupil technique, the pupil technique at the inner palace level may not be of much help to his current strength. So he's thinking longer term.
For the stage to deduce secret techniques to a higher level, it also requires that the secret techniques themselves have a certain potential. Low-level Taoist skills such as swallowing poisonous thorns have reached their peak when it comes to swallowing poisonous flowers. No matter how much power is consumed, it cannot be improved, and the potential only reaches that point.
Church thought for a moment this time, then took three steps forward and clicked on the third row of the bookshelf on the left, "This door."
After walking forward for more than ten steps, he clicked on the fourth row of the bookshelf on the right, "This door."
Two steps forward, he pointed diagonally at the top of the bookshelf on the right, "This door."
Finally he stopped and said with a smile: "These three doors all meet your requirements. Considering the potential, it is best to choose the second door."
Jiang Wang looked over one by one and felt that the three eye skills introduced by him were indeed very good and met his requirements.
Otherwise, with so many internal officials, Qiu Ji could be one of the eight eunuchs with pens in charge of the ceremony!
Where is the slightest understanding of this? He simply knows all the secret techniques in the inner palace realm's arsenal.
With his status and age, it is impossible for him to learn all the secret techniques in the entire inner realm technique arsenal. So he probably just memorized the brief information on those wooden signs.
Probably the only value of doing this is to show your kindness to someone at this time.
But there are eight eunuchs who hold the pen and eight eunuchs who are in the palace, all of whom are qualified to go out of the palace to work. Even if the emperor wants to reward someone, he may not be the one to lead the way.
Precisely because this matter is so expensive and difficult to benefit from, it just shows Qiuji's intentions. He has done so well in this kind of thing, so what about other things?
Jiang Wang admired in his heart and thanked him on his face.
You can't read these secret techniques now. At best, you can only compare them with the simple introduction. From this point of view, the second pupil technique recommended by Church is indeed the one with the most potential.
Now that I have accepted Church's recommendation, it seems very distrustful to look around again. Jiang Wang would naturally not do this.
So after looking at the wooden sign for the second pupil skill, he turned his head and prepared to announce his choice to the guardian of the skill library.
At this moment, Qiu Ji suddenly said again: "Sir Jiang, I have an opinion. I wonder if you are willing to listen to it?"
Jiang Wang was also very polite: "It's my honor that my father-in-law is willing to make some suggestions. Please tell me."
Qiu Ji rolled up his sleeves and smiled: "I personally think that the most valuable pupil technique in this arsenal at present is the one behind me... but it may not meet your requirements."
"Eunuch Qiu introduced it, I must take a look." Jiang Wang said and walked over.
From the beginning to the end, the guardian of the magic library did not say a word. He stopped like a sculpture cast here and did not interfere in any way with Jiang Wang's choice.
Church smiled and turned away.
Jiang Wang followed his gaze and saw a fiery red bead placed on a stone tray.
This red pearl is smooth and round, with a bright and uniform color, which is extremely beautiful.
The wooden sign next to it reads: "One of the scattered inheritances of the Yang Kingdom, the Eyes of Qianyang. Chapter of the Inner Palace."
As for the effect, the description is very simple——
"Soul attack."
Just these four words.
But these four words immediately made Jiang Wang's eyes light up.
Jiang Wang has only seen Wang Changji perform the secret technique that allows him to participate in the soul attack in the Inner Realm so far!
He himself had developed the Divine Soul Hidden Snake, but it was basically only effective in exploring the inner palace. In a real life-and-death fight, it rarely played any role. Most of it was used by Jiang Wang to attract the opponent's attention.
In other words, as a killing technique involving the soul, the Soul Hiding Snake is simply unqualified.
Jiang Wang took a deep breath. Of course he had judged the value at this moment, and put all the insights and observations aside.
Compared with the Soul Killing Technique, the Insight Eye Technique at the inner palace level really has no comparative value.
Moreover, Jiang Wang's soul power is far superior to that of fellow monks, but it has always been difficult to fully exert it, which is perfect for this technique!
"Does it have a complete inheritance in the treasury?" Jiang Wang asked directly.
Qiu Ji smiled and said: "There is also an outer building chapter. As for the chapter after the arrival of the gods, it has been lost...Whether it is in terms of potential or effect, it is the best pupil technique in the current arsenal."
It doesn't matter if it's lost. Since there are techniques at the Divine Presence level behind it, it means it has the potential to reach the Divine Presence and even higher levels.
Maybe it can be deduced on the stage.
This is undoubtedly the best choice!
But Jiang Wang did not decide immediately.
He took another look at the red bead that recorded the Eyes of the Qian Yang, then forcibly moved his eyes away, looked at Qiu Ji and said, "I don't know why my father-in-law is helping me like this? Jiang Wangcai has little virtue. To be honest, at this time he is a little I feel guilty.”
Qiu Ji's eyes were a little surprised, and he obviously didn't expect that at this moment, Jiang Wang could still hold back his hand.
"Master Jiang, a talented person like you wants to represent our country, Qi, to participate in the war at Guanhetai." He smiled more sincerely: "If I can help you, I will help Da Qi and also help Da Qi." Your Majesty, I don’t know how satisfied I am! This matter is not against the rules, it’s just a matter of spending more time to remember, so why wouldn’t I do it?”
These words are really beautiful.
The most important thing was the sentence "no violation" that convinced Jiang Wang. This shows that even if Church asks for something in the future, it will be "without violation".
Jiang Wang thought for a while, then cupped his hands and said, "Then I'll thank you father-in-law."
Church smiled and said nothing.
Jiang Wang said to the guardian of the magic library again: "I choose the Eye of Qian Yang."
The guardian of the magic library, covered in armor, spoke for the first time. When he interacted with Qiu Ji before, he only checked the order seal without saying a word.
"Please do it." His voice was dull and had a depressing feeling: "After you choose it, this technique will be sealed for three years. Within three years, no other person will learn it."
This is a benefit. No matter how powerful the technique is, its value will be reduced if more people learn it.
Because there are countless geniuses in the world, the more they spread, the faster they will be cracked.
Jiang Wang didn't hesitate, stretched out his hand to hold the fiery red bead, and the power of the soul touched it slightly, and the relevant records of the Eyes of Qianyang Inner Palace Chapter flowed in his heart.
He closed his eyes and felt it. When he opened his eyes, he was full of admiration.
Although it was just a flash of light, far from mastery, the Eye of Qian Yang had already surprised him. It is indeed a secret technique inherited from the Yang Kingdom!
The Kingdom of the Rising Sun, which once unified the Eastern Territory, left behind a legacy, even if it was only at the inner government level, it was excellent. Compared to the technique of hiding the snake that he had explored on his own, it was indeed incomparable.
Jiang Wang carefully put the red pearl back into the stone tray.
The guardian of the library did not speak anymore, but put his palms up against the stone bookshelf. The stone trays actually closed together into a ball, wrapping the red beads in it.
Then the entire stone ball began to "sink" and sank into the stone bottom frame that was like water.
The next time it appears will be three years from now.
During this period, even if someone is rewarded and enters the arsenal of techniques, they cannot learn the Eye of Qian Yang.
Jiang Wang abides by the rules and does not probe too much into the guardian of the magic library. After learning the secret techniques of the dynasty, he followed Qiu Ji and left the technique library.
The two of them returned along the original path, and as they walked, the guardian of the magic library disappeared.
Jiang Wang didn't know how he disappeared, and he didn't want to know.
The Da Qi Empire was powerful in the Eastern Region, and naturally it was also rich in the East.
The value of the various treasures in the treasury is immeasurable.
I don’t know how many strong men are guarding here.
Ask less, look less, and hold on to your curiosity. This is the right thing to do.
Qiu Ji, as the eunuch Bingbi, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, has been here countless times, but he still doesn't look sideways.
This is a good example.
Following Qiu Ji, he walked steadily outside and passed through checkpoints again. After repeated verifications, he was able to come out of the treasury.
After leaving the city within the city, you are still in the majestic city.
It was already dark in Linzi at this time.
The sky is dotted with stars, and Linzi City is lit up like a dragon at night.
The young eunuch waiting outside the treasury opened the sedan curtain early.
Qiu Ji clasped his hands and walked towards the sedan chair in the palace.
Jiang Wang followed for two steps and said, "I really don't know how to thank my father-in-law for what happened today!"
The other party is one of the eight eunuchs of the Bureau of Ceremonies. To be honest, he has no way to help the other party now.
Qiu Ji didn't seem to pay much attention to it. He looked back at him and just smiled and said, "Let's just make a good relationship."
Then he bowed and got into the sedan chair.
The sedan chair in the palace went away leisurely.
Jiang Wang was silent for a moment outside the treasury independently.
He raised his head and glanced at the star-studded night before heading to Xiashan Mountain.
Speaking of which, every time I come to Zicheng, I am either busy with various things or practicing behind closed doors. The sedan comes and the carriage goes.
He rarely had this experience of walking alone on the streets of Linzi.
Among the noisy crowds of people coming and going, he "swimmed" freely, silently chewing the secret of Qianyang Eyes in the bustling atmosphere.
This technique is inherited from the Great Yang Empire, which unified the Eastern Region and aspired to the world. Although it is only a fragment of the Inner Palace, it is still very domineering and majestic.
At the beginning of its cultivation, it is necessary to attract the light of the scorching sun into the eyes at noon every day, supplemented by the power of the soul, and refine it into the eyes through secret methods.
Once it is completed, it can activate the power of Qian Yang and perform meritorious deeds in battles at the soul level, which is extremely domineering.
Compared with the still-explored art of the Fire Realm, the Eye of Qianyang, which has a complete training method, is undoubtedly much easier to master.
It's a pity that it's not noon now, so I can't try it right away.
Putting aside the secret of the Eyes of Qianyang that he had studied carefully, Jiang Wang did not relax, but continued to deduce the art of the fire world.
Walking slowly like this, you are immersed in the boundless mystery of the magic world.
…
…
It was at this time that Chaoyu saw this young man walking among the crowd in the slowly passing carriage.
I saw him strolling calmly, so harmonious with the crowds on the streets of Linzi, yet he had an independent demeanor, like a star or the moon.
"Who is this person?" the person next to her asked.
"Jiang Wang."
"The person who secretly learned your sword skills before the battle?"
Chao Yu lowered the curtain of the car window: "He is a man worthy of my sword."
The lights on earth and the stars in heaven are expected to be distinct in both places.
The horse pulling the cart never neighed.
In silence, the carriage drove towards the outside of Linzi City.
