Immortality starts from eating melons in the cold palace

Chapter 78 I am the Taoist Lord of the Golden Crow.
  a few days later.

Zhang Wenzheng came to visit with a pot of spring breeze brew.

"Why do you have time to come to me for a drink today?"

Li Changsheng took a sip of Spring Breeze Brew, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.

The prince oversees the country and lacks experience, which is the most stressful time.

As the prince's confidant, Zhang Wenzheng should be too busy to keep his feet off the ground.

Does Zhang Wenzheng have no mission?
  As soon as Zhang Wenzheng came up, he took a few gulps of wine and almost choked himself.

He muttered quietly in his mouth.

"I just feel unhappy and want to talk to you."

"Changsheng, you know, I feel so hateful."

"What do you hate?"

"I hate Daojun Jinwu..."

Li Changsheng:? ? ?

"I hate Taoist Jinwu, why didn't I kill Emperor Jingming!"

"Cough-cough-"

"Wen Zheng, be careful what you say."

"You are an official of the imperial court."

Zhang Wenzheng's wild words almost shocked Li Changsheng.

This is not like the usually steady Zhang Wenzheng!
  "Changsheng, don't worry, I'll just say this to you."

"After I leave your house, I will keep my mouth shut."

"Are you going to betray me again?"

Zhang Wenzheng kept drinking and soon became drunk.

"Hunjun!"

"Sooner or later, the empire of the Great Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed in the hands of the foolish king."

"Reducing or exempting the land tax for martial arts sects, has Hun Jun's brain been kicked by a donkey?"

"How could you come up with such a stupid trick?"

Zhang Wenzheng became angrier as he talked.

The prince worked diligently to supervise the country and wanted to eliminate the stubborn diseases of the Zhou Dynasty.

As the father of the emperor, Emperor Jingming was holding back the prince.

The martial arts sect has a big tree with deep roots and owns thousands of hectares of fertile land. This is already a powerful force.

It caused huge disasters to the local people.

Emperor Jingming didn't want to weaken the martial arts sect, but wanted to raise a hand.

In Zhang Wenzheng's view, it is simply unreasonable.

"It is said that a person gains wisdom from the pain he suffers."

"Hasn't Hunjun still remembered the lessons of the Tianshan Sect?"

"Have you gained wisdom? I think you have lost your mind!"

Zhang Wenzheng kept complaining and spoke the truth after drinking.

If what he said were to spread, he would have nine heads and they wouldn't be enough to chop him off.

Li Changsheng quietly listened to Zhang Wenzheng's complaints.

Be a perfect listener.

"Is there any result for this draft?"

Li Changsheng asked.

This draft is considered to be the most attention-grabbing event in the capital.

"There are already results."

"Who do you think is the leader of the draft?"

"Could it be the head of Baihua Sect?"

"Yes, it's her. How did you guess Changsheng?"

Zhang Wenzheng raised his eyes and asked curiously.

"In the casino, the head of Baihua Sect has the lowest odds."

"Most of the casinos in the capital have popular eunuchs as shareholders, so they can definitely get the news in advance."

Li Changsheng said calmly.

The mouth can lie, but the body is honest.

Yinzi is even more honest.

The results of this draft can be estimated from the casino odds.

"The leader of Baihua Sect, I don't know what charm he has."

"A woman in her early forties was so beautiful that she was appointed by Emperor Jingming as Concubine Zhuang."

"In addition to Concubine Zhuang, there are eight other people who have been named imperial concubines. They are all from the top second-rate sects in the martial arts world."

"In addition, there are seventy-two people who have been named beauties."

"The biggest winner this time is undoubtedly Baihuamen. Thirteen people were selected by Emperor Jingming."

Emperor Jingming conferred eighty-one harem concubines in one go.

It's really an exaggeration.

Although the emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty had many concubines.

But this was the first time that Emperor Jingming had made such a big noise.

Are you afraid that Emperor Jingming wants to unite the martial arts sects to fight against the prince?
  Li Changsheng speculated with the greatest malice.

How could a power animal like the emperor allow his power to slip away?

In today's imperial court, having many orders is definitely a recipe for disaster.

Sooner or later something will go wrong in the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"What about the Shushan Sword Sect?"

"Didn't you say that the disciples of the Shushan Sword Sect also participated in the draft?"

"A member of the Shushan Sword Sect suddenly withdrew halfway through the election."

"I don't know what the reason is?"

Zhang Wenzheng complained for half a night before he became completely drunk.

He was helped back to Zhang Mansion by the accompanying housekeeper.

[You witnessed Zhuang Xinmei being canonized as Zhuang Guifei, drawing on the power of the years, witness points +50! 】

[You witnessed Qi Ning being canonized as Concubine Qi, drawing on the power of time, witness points +30! 】

【You have witnessed...】

……

Emperor Jingming enfeoffed concubines on a large scale, accumulating a wave of witness points for Li Changsheng.

Although there are not many testimonial points for a single reward for canonizing a concubine, the victory lies in the large number of people. Together, the testimonial points exceed two thousand.

Li Changsheng secretly thanked Emperor Jingming in his heart.

What a nice guy!
  Jiulian Mountain, Qinghe County.

Qinghe County is located on the border between Shu Han and Cao Wei.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, Taizu of the Shu Han Dynasty built nine cities and seventy-two counties on the border of the Shu Han Dynasty, forming an iron barrel-like defense line.

Nine Cities refers to the nine fairy cities, which are the core of the border defense line.

Each fairy city belonged directly to the Shu Han court, with Jindan monks stationed in charge, and three thousand Taoist soldiers stationed there, which shocked all parties.

As for the seventy-two counties, they were entrusted to branches of the clan or ministers with meritorious deeds.

The defense of the seventy-two counties was also entrusted to these clan branches and meritorious ministers.

The ancestor of the Liu family in Qinghe was a member of the clan.

A thousand years ago, Qinghe County was still a swamp with black water raging.

The ancestors of the Liu family in Qinghe came to Qinghe County to control floods and quell floods.

What was once black water has become the clear river it is today.

Because of his merits in flood control, the ancestor of the Liu family in Qinghe was assigned to Qinghe County to guard one side.

Since the establishment of the Liu family in Qinghe, they have flourished for thousands of years, with many mortals and hundreds of monks.

The most important thing is that for thousands of years, the Liu family in Qinghe has been building foundations continuously. This allowed the Liu family of Qinghe to maintain their rule over Qinghe County.

After several days of trekking, Zhou An followed the large army and returned to Qinghe City.

When they went to the Xuanyin Mine, due to an emergency, the ancestor of the Liu family personally drove the flying boat and took them to the Xuanyin Mine.

When I returned, I wasn't treated so well.

How could they, a group of Qi-training monks, be worthy of the Foundation Establishment Ancestor to control the flying boat for them?

When Zhou An returned to Qinghe City.

Li Changsheng saw Qinghe County through Jianmu Ye.

This is the most majestic city within a radius of thousands of miles.

Even though Li Changsheng has experienced the information explosion society on Blue Star.

The moment he saw Qinghe City, he still felt a little dazed.

Qinghe City is so magnificent.

The city wall is actually five hundred feet high.

Where is the city wall?
  It was like continuous mountains surrounding Qinghe City.

As for the area of ​​Qinghe City, it far exceeds that of any ancient Blue Star city.

Perhaps Blue Star's modern metropolis is larger than Qinghe City.

But modern metropolises have no city walls.

The visual impact is far less exaggerated than Qinghe City.

If Li Changsheng had to describe it, the Qinghe City in front of him was like a doomsday fortress in science fiction works.

Zhou An returned home slightly tired.

"An'er, tomorrow is the day of the first round of assessments at Qige Academy."

"Has your magical weapon been refined? Don't be delayed by the Liu family's affairs."

A middle-aged man with a rough voice.

Zhou An paused, his face showing slight embarrassment.

"Second uncle, don't worry, I have prepared the refined magic weapon."

"I just came back. I'm a little tired. I'm going to rest first."

Zhou An answered perfunctorily and returned to his yard.

Recently, the biggest thing in Qinghe County is that Liu Feng, the master of the Qi Pavilion, has started to recruit disciples and selected closed disciples.

Liu Feng is a first-class weapon refiner who has held the position of master of the Qi Pavilion for decades.

Liu Feng is also a monk of the Liu family in Qinghe, according to the past rules.

His disciples were naturally selected from the Liu family in Qinghe.

However, among the disciples of the Liu family in Qinghe, there are no good weapon-refining seedlings.

The matter of recruiting disciples was also delayed.

As Liu Feng got older, the matter of recruiting disciples had become urgent.

In desperation, I can only look at talent and talent regardless of status.

The disciples selected by Liu Feng can not only inherit Liu Feng's mantle, but also marry the legitimate daughter of the Liu family.

As soon as the news came out, the entire monks in Qinghe County were excited.

Any monk with some ambition will not miss this opportunity.

Zhou An naturally wanted to try his luck.

Although I know I have little hope, but... what if?
  Qi Ge Academy was Liu Feng's platform for selecting his disciples.

After three rounds of assessments, Liu Fenghui finally selected a disciple.

In the first round of assessment, Liu Feng gave the drawings, and everyone followed the drawings to refine the magic weapon and complete the assessment.

This can hardly harm Zhou An.

He is still an apprentice in weapon refining, and the probability of independently refining a magic weapon is less than 10%.

He had tried three times before and failed.

His savings could no longer afford the materials for the next refinement.

This is the reason why Zhou An is willing to go to Xuanyin Mine to support.

Just to make some extra money.

It's a pity that the monks of the Cao family plundered so hard that he didn't even make a fortune, and his trip was in vain.

As for the magical weapon for the assessment, he still has no idea.

What he said to his second uncle before was just to save the young man's face.

Now he is worried to death.

Zhou An took out Jianmu leaves and started playing with them.

I've been getting Jianmu leaves for several days, but I haven't found any clues yet.

But Zhou An still felt that this was a treasure.

Otherwise, how could it be hidden in the cracks of clothes?
  the other side.

Uncle Zhou An came to his son's room and gave him instructions.

"Ping'er, you must not lose to Zhou An in the first round of assessment at Qige Academy."

"Your father has been suppressed by your uncle all his life, so I hope you can be more upbeat and help him regain all his face."

"Zhou An has been without his parents since he was a child. You still can't compare to him, let's see if I don't break your legs."

Zhou Ping nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Dad, don't worry, my cousin's weapon refining level is at the bottom of the school, and he will definitely not be my opponent."

"This time, I will definitely win back your face."

……

"Create a mountain to recruit disciples!"

"Closed disciple!"

"The first round of assessment!"

“This can be used as an entry point for investment!”

Li Changsheng looked at Zhou An's frowning face.

After these few days of observation, Li Changsheng discovered that Zhou An was a somewhat cowardly and honest person with low self-esteem.

Perhaps this is also related to the environment in which he grew up.

I lost my parents when I was a child and stayed with my second uncle.

Relatives are relatives after all, how can they be compared with parents?

This developed Zhou An's current character.

At the same time, Li Changsheng also noticed that Zhou An wanted to change his destiny and get ahead.

"Since you want to change your destiny, then I will help you."

……

Zhou An injects magic power into the mysterious leaves.

The mysterious leaves continuously absorb his magic power.

However, there is no feeling of sacrifice.

"If it's not a magic weapon, what could it be?"

"A precious elixir?"

Zhou An frowned and murmured.

At this moment, the sound of vicissitudes of life came from the leaves of Jianmu.

"Junior, are you calling me?"

Sudden sound.

It frightened Zhou An so much that he almost threw the Jianmu leaves away.

But soon, the panic on Zhou An's face turned into ecstasy.

Immortal fate!

This is definitely a fairy tale!

Zhou An asked cautiously: "Senior, who are you?"

"I am the Taoist Lord Jinwu."
