Although Lu Cheng is not short of jade coins, he can't come up with a billion, and he doesn't have spirit-gathering beads. All the spirit-gathering beads have been sent to the modern world, and some of them are buried in Wurou Villa and Qingfeng Villa; there are gold items. , out of the 55 pieces of goldware I brought last time, only ten were sold.
"I want a tear from the stars."
He wanted to get one drop first and wait for the other drop later. It is said that there are occasionally tears of stars at auctions, and the price can be exchanged for just a piece of gold, which is much cheaper than the Witch Temple.
He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he took out ten pieces of gold.
The middle-aged deacon was very surprised. He didn't expect that someone could take out so many gold objects in one go. There are many high-level Heavenly Witches and low-level Martial Kings outside who are racking their brains to get a piece of gold. Some people have been waiting in Golden Sheep City for hundreds of years, but they have not been able to get a satisfactory result.
The middle-aged deacon walked into the secret room and came out after a while. He handed Lu Cheng a white jade bottle. There was a drop of red semi-solid substance in the bottle, which looked like pomegranate seeds and rubies.
He warned: "Only when you have reached the peak of the Witch King and are ready to advance, you can take 'Tears of the Stars'. If you are not strong enough and take it forcibly, you may explode and die."
Lu Cheng nodded: "Thanks for the reminder."
He did not buy the essence of mountains and rivers because he could buy it from the auction house. The aura of Houfu Shengjing is much richer than that of Phoenix Continent, which means that there are more large-scale spiritual veins buried underground, so it is easy to obtain the essence of mountains and rivers.
He came out of the Witch Temple and passed the main entrance of the City Lord's Mansion when he saw an erected stone sign with some notices posted on it.
He walked over and browsed.
The text on the notice is simplified runes, similar to the oracle bone inscriptions unearthed by the Yin and Shang Dynasties in later generations.
Lu Cheng has mastered a large number of runes and is familiar with various variations, so he can naturally understand them.
One of the notices read: "The City Lord's Mansion is sincerely recruiting disciples of Heavenly Witches and Heavenly Martial Masters. We will give you the best service and you can come and go freely..."
Lu Cheng read the notice and understood in his heart: "This is just like the Warring States Period. In order to deal with the invasion of Qin and save their country from destruction, the nobles of various vassal states tried their best to recruit talents. They treated the virtuous and corporal and recruited guests to expand their empire. Therefore, the trend of raising "scholars" was prevalent. At that time, those who were famous for raising "scholars" included Wei Wuji, Lord Xinling of Wei State, Zhao Sheng, Lord Pingyuan of Zhao State, Huang Xie, Lord Chunshen of Chu State, and Huang Xie, Lord of Qi State. Mengchang Jun Tianwen was later called the "Four Young Masters of the Warring States Period".
The city lord of Jinyang City is named 'Jicheng', and he is a low-level martial king. Although the Broom Country is a small country, as the lord of eighteen cities, Ji Cheng is still under a lot of pressure, because this is a world of witchcraft and witchcraft cultivators are more respected than martial cultivators, and the status of the King of Martial Arts is relatively low. If not Gathering a group of disciples, I am afraid that even the position of city lord will not be secure. Once a few more junior wizard kings appear in the Broom Kingdom, city lords like 'Jicheng' may be replaced at any time. "
After reading the notice, Lu Cheng did not go to apply. He would not stay here for too long. Let Lu Chan do this kind of thing.
In the next few days, Qingmei and Siping went to purchase a batch of alluvial gold, sweeping away all the alluvial gold accumulated in Jinyang City in the past six months.
】
In addition, Yingchu and Yao Shi also went to the mountains to dig a batch of gold mines and filled them with more than ten storage rings.
Ten days later, Lu Cheng was lying on the bed, his mind wandering, and he returned to modern times.
He handed the alluvial gold to Quancheng Tool Factory, and purchased 100 tons of gold from the international market, all of which were made into gold weapons. In the end, he obtained more than 800 pieces of gold, weighing between 100 kilograms and 500 kilograms, including swords, guns, swords, halberds, and axes. The hooks and forks are complete in style. They are all bare-plate weapons without engraved runes. Those Heavenly Witches, Witch Kings and Martial Kings in other worlds all have their own ideas and do not want to be disturbed.
These more than 800 pieces of gold will not be sold in Jinyang City at once. He will leave them to Lu Chan to find a suitable way to send them to other countries and cities in exchange for more rare materials.
The sun and the moon fly by like a shuttle.
Several years passed in the blink of an eye, and it was the spring of 2086.
On a balmy day, spring is warm and flowers are blooming. Go to Taoran Pavilion in Xicheng, Beijing, and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom under Mercy Nunnery. When the flowers are in bloom, they look like crimson clouds and crimson snow, and they are set against each other by ancient buildings, lakes, and stone bridges.
23-year-old Lu Lingchen and 19-year-old Tao Qianqian stood under the flowers. The jade trees faced the wind. They were more delicate than the flowers, bright and moving.
Youth is always beautiful.
Life is endless from generation to generation, and the moon and river look alike every year.
Human life is like cherry blossoms. The cherry blossom is too delicate, and its life is too short. Ten days are like a flash in the pan. But it bloomed so brightly and touchingly, without complaining about its various misfortunes and ignoring the existence of death. Even when it was withering, it still had a sad beauty, and it performed the most beautiful magic in the air with light steps, as if each one was playful. It's hard to imagine that the elf is still smiling in the face of disappearance.
"Brother Lingchen, you will graduate in two months. Where are you going after graduation?"
"My family planted millions of acres of medicinal fields in the Kunlun Mountains and invested in building a postdoctoral research base. I cannot stay in Beijing after graduation and have to go back to study medicinal herbs."
Tao Qianqian grabbed Lu Lingchen's arm: "Brother Lingchen, I want to go with you. Wherever you go, I will go?"
Lu Lingchen asked: "Are your parents willing to let you leave and go to Beijing?"
"I have grown up. It has been more than two years since I graduated from the Ancient Martial Arts Academy. I should go hunting in the great forests of the north or the eastern coastal areas, but my mother did not let me go. She found a place for me to work in the Department of Social Resources. Work. I don’t like my current job and want to change my environment. I heard that the relevant departments are considering moving the capital because of the intrusion of sea water.”
"Move the capital? Move to where?"
"Xijing Chang'an."
"It's less than a thousand kilometers from Chang'an to Qinghai Lake, so it's quite convenient."
Lu Lingchen went to college at the age of 16 and was only 23 years old. He was about to graduate with a doctorate. During his college years, he met a lot of girls. However, looking over and over, he still found Tao Qianqian, the girl next door, to be the cutest.
Tao Qianqian graduated from the Ancient Martial Arts Academy at the age of 17 and entered a civil service job in a national ministry. When she was bored, she listened to some interesting online courses. Her lively and agile personality added a bit of gentleness, and she not only became more and more beautiful. , his skill is getting higher and higher, he is not far from the peak of the tenth level of martial arts, and he will be able to advance to Xiantian in two years.
Lu Lingchen advanced to the innate level when he was 18 years and 7 months old.
Once you become an innate monk, if you look back at the girls in college, you can clearly see a layer of makeup on their faces and an unpleasant smell emitting from their bodies, and it will be difficult to accept their approach.
This is different from Tao Shuguang's experience. More than twenty years ago, Tao Shuguang was transferred to Fuhu Pavilion in Beijing as a monk of the Qingcheng Sect. At that time, he was not an innate monk. If he were an innate monk, it would be difficult to be attracted by Yan Zhen who had no cultivation level.
Although Tao Qianqian is not an innate cultivator yet, she has completed the training of skin, flesh, muscles and bones, and is warming and nourishing the spiritual energy of the five internal organs. Her body exudes a special fragrance, which makes Lu Lingchen feel very comfortable.
For this reason, the relationship between the two became closer and closer, and they unknowingly became lovers. They didn't know that there was good preparation by their elders behind this matter. It is natural for outside forces to intervene. When I sleep in spring, I don't realize the dawn, and I can hear the singing of birds everywhere. Sneaked into the night wind, moisten things silently.
