"Brother Chen, are you awake?" Cheng Diefei stood beside Chen Luo and immediately noticed that Chen Luo had opened his eyes.
"Yes." Chen Luo nodded, "You can tell the head of the Confucius Institute that I have a draft of the next serialized story, so he doesn't have to worry..."
Cheng Diefei was overjoyed: "Really? That's great..."
After saying that, Cheng Diefei's face flushed again: "Then... can you... follow me first..."
But before Cheng Diefei finished speaking, he saw Lu Tong running in and said, "Uncle, uncle, the prince is here to deliver the order."
"Pass the message?" Chen Luo quickly stood up, "What does His Majesty the Emperor want to do by himself?"
…
"Emperor Daxuan ordered the hereditary Wan'an Bo Chen Luo. Now there are envoys from the South Ten Thousand Demons, who want to ask for a place to enter the Crystal Demon Realm. The court can't argue, so they open the Emperor Lin's Contest to settle the dispute. You are an earl, and the country is precious. It should be a witness. I admire this."
After Wang Li finished reading the edict, he handed it to Chen Luo with a smile, and added: "Tomorrow the Linhuang Arena will be set up in the East Palace, please don't make a mistake."
Chen Luo accepted the order in confusion and asked: "My lord, where is the Crystal Demon Realm? What is this Linhuang Arena?"
Just as Wang Li was about to speak, he heard Ye Dafu's voice coming from outside the door: "Brother, I'm here to find you..."
This Ye Dafu has become particularly affectionate towards Chen Luo since he heard several business tips from Chen Luo.
Wang Li smiled and said: "Our family has to go to other nobles' houses to deliver edicts. I should ask His Highness about these matters."
Just as he was talking, Ye Dafu walked in carelessly and glanced at Wang Li. Wang Li immediately saluted respectfully, turned around and left in a hurry. Ye Dafu sat casually on a chair and asked, "Is he here to inform the Crystal Demon Realm?"
Chen Luo nodded and asked, "Where is the Crystal Demon Realm?"
"I was about to talk to Big Brother." Ye Dafu sat up straight, "I'm afraid that Big Brother you don't know the market and will be cheated, so I came here to remind you."
"Brother, do you still remember the collapse of the world I told you?"
Chen Luo nodded.
"This crystal demon world is a collapsed world." Ye Dafu explained, taking out a bright crystal stone the size of a little finger from his pocket and handing it to Chen Luo.
"What is this?" Chen Luo took it and took a look. It looked a bit like a diamond from his previous life. However, as soon as he took possession of this stone, he found that the red dust energy in the acupoints in his body was about to move.
"This is the Tiandao Crystal." Ye Dafu said, "The Tiandao Crystal is said to be a precious ore that was formed when the spirit of Tiandao collapsed and shattered the wheel world, and the collapsed world was affected by the power of Tiandao. In the later stages of practice, whether it is making pills, Making treasures and making talismans requires Tiandao crystal."
"Tiandao crystals are divided into upper, middle and lower grades. Tiandao stone veins will be generated in most collapsing worlds. If you excavate Tiandao stones, about ten thousand pieces of Tiandao stones can be condensed into one or two days of Dao crystals. The power of Tiandao contained in this type of Tiandao crystals is violent. , belongs to the lower grade. The lower grade Tiandao Crystal is often circulated in the market, and the exchange rate is about one million taels of silver."
"And some collapsing worlds will be rich in a kind of crystal demon, and you can get Tiandao crystals by killing them. The power of Tiandao contained in this kind of Tiandao crystal is relatively mild, and it belongs to the middle-grade Tiandao crystal. Very few people trade it, even if there are, at least Five taels of low-grade Tiandao crystals can be exchanged for one tael of mid-grade Tiandao crystals."
"As for the high-grade Tiandao Crystal, even I don't know."
"This Crystal Demon Realm is one of the collapsed realms that is rich in crystal demons, hence its name."
Chen Luo suddenly realized: "So, this crystal demon world is a gold mine!"
Ye Dafu deeply agreed and continued: "Exactly! Because the Collapse World is not stable, there are limits on the number and strength of people who can enter it. According to the rules of previous years, a total of three hundred people can enter, and they cannot exceed the Poetry Realm. Wenchang Pavilion accounts for 60%, and the royal family and the nobility each account for 20%."
"So, brother, you should be able to get a few quotas. If you don't have the people to send, why not sell the quota to me. If my people come out alive, each of us will get half of the Tiandao Crystal." At this point, Ye Dafu's eyes were filled with light.
"But haven't the quotas been decided yet?" Chen Luo looked confused and handed Ye Dafu the edict that Wang Li had just given him. Ye Dafu accepted the edict casually and said, "This is a common practice. Every day Once in ten years, I..."
When Ye Dafu saw the content of the edict, he was suddenly startled, stopped talking, and read it several times again, with an angry look on his face: "The demon clan came to the Crystal Demon Realm to fight against the autumn wind? You can't even argue? Gaowu!"
Following Ye Dafu's roar, Chen Luo saw the middle-aged scribe who had been following Ye Dafu in Linglong Building and looked like a bookkeeper and came into the hall from the concierge in a few flashes.
Gao Wu saluted Chen Luo and came to Ye Dafu: "Your Majesty."
"What's going on with the Demon Clan asking for a spot in the Crystal Demon Realm? Why didn't I know?"
Gao Wusan laughed: "You have been busy these days with joining the breakfast flagship store. Besides, the reduction of quotas has not affected us, so I will not report it."
"Tell me more about it."
"Yes. The Prime Minister proposed that forty places should be given to the demon clan who are coming this time to express the sincerity of uniting the demons to fight against the barbarians. Among these forty places, the royal family and the nobility will each provide ten places. , Wenchang Pavilion offered twenty places. Prime Minister Wen did not agree with this, and His Majesty finally ordered that the Linhuang Tournament be started with the twenty places in Wenchang Pavilion as a bet."
"Forty places!" Ye Dafu suddenly slammed the table, "This is unreasonable!"
Chen Luo was also shocked. At this time, Ye Dafu suddenly lost the majesty of a vassal king who had been following him a few days ago.
"Dafu, is the matter serious?" Chen Luo asked. In his opinion, since there are no shortage of places belonging to King Jing's lineage, Ye Dafu actually has nothing to lose.
When Ye Dafu heard Chen Luo's question, his face gradually calmed down, he waved his hand, and Gao Wu clasped his fists and left. Ye Dafu looked at Chen Luo and sighed.
"Brother, you don't know something. The Crystal Demon Realm is also known as the Tianyun Realm, and it involves luck!"
"Luck?" Chen Luo suddenly became energetic, "Please tell me carefully."
…
Ministry of Rites, Wanbin Building.
"Young Master, the Daxuan Court proposes to open the Linhuang Tournament." A rabbit demon maid poured a cup of tea and handed it to Bai Qingqing.
Without any surprise, Bai Qingqing turned over a page of the "Da Xuan Min Bao" in her hand and said, "Isn't this expected? According to the rules, they proposed to start the Linhuang Tournament, so we will decide the content of the competition. ... Now this Daxuan, unless Liu Jingzhuang is a decade younger, there is no one who can pass my literary test. As for the martial arts, it depends on Tanqu."
The rabbit demon smiled and said: "That Tanqu is no match for the young master at all. The young master should be the one to fight in a martial arts fight."
Bai Qingqing smiled faintly and stretched out her furry tail from behind. Bai Qingqing gently stroked her tail: "After all, I am a half-demon..."
After saying that, Bai Qingqing shook her head again and looked at the "Da Xuan Min Bao" in her hand: "Just like Linghu Chong in this story, whether he is righteous or evil, who is really believing in him except this silly girl Ren Yingying! "
…
Earl Wan'an's Mansion.
"Brother, you don't know something. There are two entrances to the Crystal Demon Realm, one is in my Daxuan, and the other is in the Barbarian Golden Tent City. The danger of crystal demons in the Crystal Demon Realm is secondary, and the most important danger is from the barbarians. Of course, We are also the biggest threat to the barbarians."
"There are strange trees in the Crystal Demon Realm, called Luck Trees. Using Tiandao Crystals as fertilizer, they can absorb the evil energy of heaven and earth and transform it into luck. Every battle in the Crystal Demon Realm is a battle between human beings and Yun Mu. The last time in the Crystal Demon Realm After opening it, I, Daxuan, grabbed twenty-eight luck trees and planted them all in Ganning Mansion in Hanzhou, which is only in the Western Region. Ganning Mansion's luck increased by 10% out of thin air in the past ten years, and the number of people increased by more than 300,000. .”
"The number of Yunmu in the Crystal Demon Realm is fixed each time. If we are less, there will be more barbarians. This increase and decrease will not show anything in three to five years, but there will be a difference in ten or a hundred years."
Chen Luo frowned slightly: "Then the person who grabs the luck wood will not be rewarded with luck?"
Ye Dafu shook his head: "Although the luck wood is a tree, it is also a spiritual creature. If you want to bring it out of the crystal demon world, you must recognize its owner. Seventy percent of the luck generated by the luck wood is returned to heaven, and three parts fall on the owner, so Many geniuses are willing to enter the crystal demon world to fight."
"Three-seven?" Chen Luo nodded, finally finding another way to gain luck.
"But it makes no sense for you to ask these things, brother." Ye Dafu said, "You are a newly created earl, and you were originally ranked lower. If it was before, there were sixty places for nobles, and brother could still assign one or two. Now. Zhou Zuofeng asked the nobles to give up ten places, brother, I'm afraid you won't have a spot."
Chen Luo was stunned: "Didn't you talk about opening the Linhuang Challenge?"
"Those are the twenty places to bet on Wenchang Pavilion. It has nothing to do with you, brother!"
Chen Luo: (╬ ̄ Pan ̄)
I need to file a complaint with Fourth Senior Brother!
Chen Luo stood up suddenly. At this moment, a piece of information suddenly appeared in his mind, and Chen Luo's face suddenly became strange.
"Is this... someone reading a book and understanding the 'Star Absorbing Technique'?"
