Chapter 809 The military strategist recruits a bride
Juxianju looks like a restaurant from a distance, and it sounds like it is a restaurant up close, but when you walk inside Juxianju, you realize that it is more than just a restaurant.
It is also a market.
The space inside is much larger than it looks from the outside.
On the left is a counter. The energy behind the counter fluctuates and there are crystal stones of various colors. The big ones are like sea bowls and the small ones are like rice grains. This is the magic core!
Demon people and monsters all have demon cores, which are similar to the demon elixirs of the demon clan, but there are differences. The difference is that the demon elixirs of demons have bottlenecks. At the demon star level, the demon energy condenses and begins to form demon elixirs.
, the demon elixir truly turns into a physical entity, and the demons have reached the demon king realm. There are no demon elixirs under the demon star.
The magic core is different. The magic core has existed since the mother's womb, but it will grow step by step as the cultivation level increases.
The demon cores placed on the counter are full of energy, but they have no demonic energy. They seem to be just pieces of energy source.
Lin and Su approached the counter, and the shopkeeper inside bowed: "Young master, do you want some magic core? The best ones are all from outside the customs in the past two months. The demonic nature has been carefully eliminated, and the pure energy
source."
Within two months, the demons from outside the customs were carefully eliminated...
In just one sentence, Lin Su deciphered a lot of information...
He raised his eyes: "How to sell it?"
"The first level magic core costs five taels of silver, the second level magic core costs 2 taels of silver, the third level 10 taels, the fourth level 30 taels, the fifth level a thousand taels, the sixth level 10,000 taels, and the seventh level 50,000 taels! This is a general classification, the same
The grades are also divided into upper, middle and lower grades, as well as various attributes and corresponding prices. Which type do you need?"
The level of cultivation of the demon clan is basically the same as that of the demon clan, including demon people, demon beasts, demon soldiers, demon generals, demon stars, demon kings, and demon emperors. The corresponding levels for human cultivators are Tao root, Tao altar, Tao mountain, Tao heart, and Tao.
Flowers, Tao fruits, like heaven and earth.
The seventh-level magic core is the core of the Demon Emperor.
"I'm just asking..." Lin Su said.
"Young Master, you might as well take a look..." The shopkeeper lost his enthusiasm.
At this time, a gust of wind blew outside, carrying a chilling air. Lin Su turned around and saw a group of people, cultivators!
Moreover, the cultivation levels are not low, the lowest ones are the ultimate Dao flower, and most are Dao fruits. The leader is a rough man walking like a dragon and a tiger, with the air current swirling around him, he is already in the realm of heaven and earth.
The shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him: "Mr. Qi Er, have you come back from outside the customs?"
"I just came back!" The rough man said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Tian, are you waiting impatiently?"
"That's right, the old man has long planned that the second head of the family has been away for more than two months and will come back with a full load..."
"Haha! You old man is quite confident about Qi. He has been away for more than two months and has not hunted many demon cores outside the customs. But he got lucky after he came back and killed a level seven monster!"
ah?
The old shopkeeper was shocked...
Dozens of gangsters drinking on the other side were also shocked...
A seventh-level monster is equivalent to a human being who is a master of heaven and earth. One magic core is worth ten thousand taels of silver. This second child is really rich...
Old Qi stretched out his hands and opened a storage bag. Inside was a mountain of magic cores, but most of them were level one, two, three, and four. There were about a hundred level five magic cores, and three or five level six magic cores.
There is a purple-black magic core at the top, which is as big as a magic disk. The light inside is flying around, the magic energy above the magic core is soaring into the sky, and there seems to be a faint roar.
Qi Laoer and his party answered everyone's questions while delivering the goods...
Demon hunting outside the pass was unusual and life-threatening. Qi Laoer and his party had more than 300 people, and half of them died outside the pass. Only 137 people returned successfully and only harvested more than 700 demon cores. Among them,
There were only five level six magic cores in the upper grade, but they did not expect that after returning to the pass, they accidentally discovered a demon that had infiltrated the human race. This monster was no small matter. More than a hundred people besieged it, but it still killed more than thirty people.
, and finally, with Qi Laoer's shocking blow, this old demon was killed.
However, it is worth it. With this level 7 magic core, the hard work of these hundreds of people for more than two months is not in vain...
Lin Su raised his eyes: "Let's go to the second floor!"
On the second floor of the restaurant, a scholar just went upstairs. This restaurant should be like other restaurants. There is a common rule that scholars go to the second floor and the first floor is reserved for practitioners.
Sure enough, when a waiter guarding the door of the second floor saw their attire, he bowed slightly and led them into the second floor. There are private seats and private rooms on the second floor, but there is also a lobby. At this moment, all the private seats and private rooms are full, and the lobby
There were not many empty seats left inside. Lin Su pointed at an empty table by the window that had just been packed. The waiter brought them to the table and turned around to serve them tea.
When asked what kind of food and wine would be used, Lin Su casually said: Just four or five plates of your restaurant's specialties will be enough.
"Where's the wine?" The waiter's eyes lit up slightly. As a waiter, he likes one type of customers, the kind who serve special dishes without asking the price.
"The best wine, serve up a jar!"
As soon as the waiter left, Lin Su waved his hand lightly, and a literary soundproof wall formed in the sky...
But the soundproof wall is one-way. He can hear the sounds outside, but his conversation cannot be heard outside...
"What did you see?" Yaogu said softly.
“Great strategy!”
"Strategy?" Yaogu frowned.
"As long as the demonic nature is eliminated, the demonic core is an authentic energy source and plays a great role in the practice world, such as absorbing energy for practice, and turning it into energy crystals for formations. Therefore, almost every city has demon pills and demonic cores.
The core franchise is not unusual at all, but the magic core operation here is different!"
"I don't know much about things on the spiritual path. Please explain it more clearly..." Yaogu said.
Lin Su said...
In what ways is the magic core operation here different from other places? At least two places. First, the price difference between purchasing magic core and selling magic core in other places is astonishingly large, but here, the price difference is very small! For example,
The purchase price of this seventh-level magic core is 48,000 taels of silver, and the selling price is 50,000 taels of silver. Counting the rigid expenses for eliminating the magic, it is sold at almost a fair price. Secondly, other places will not charge first- and second-level ones.
Magic core, because after the demonic nature of this kind of magic core is eliminated, it has almost no energy and no profit at all. Therefore, if you try to buy a first- and second-level magic core in the capitals of various countries, you will definitely not be able to buy it, because all store owners will tell you
, that kind of newborn monster’s magic core is of no use?
Yes, it is indeed useless!
So, why do Zianzhou’s specialty stores do such useless things?
"Strategy!" Yaogu nodded slowly: "The magic core trade is actually not to make money, but to stimulate the cultivators here to go out and kill demons! Regardless of old demons or new demons, there will be rewards for killing them!"
"right!"
Yao Gu took a long breath: "Is this the military mentality?"
"yes!"
Yaogu said: "I understand what you mean. In today's Burial State, military strategists are actually everywhere. They may have penetrated deeply into the court and spread among the people. In the past, military strategists made the Holy Land their home, but today's military strategists are everywhere.
Home."
"Muye Villa has produced dozens of imperial masters and more than ten prime ministers over the past millennium. There have been more than 700 scholars and scholars who have walked out of here. If everyone who walks out of here carries with them...
If it bears the imprint of a military strategist, Burian State is actually already a country of military strategists."
Yaogu said: "If this can be regarded as rebirth in Nirvana, it should be a different kind of Nirvana."
“But it’s also a kind of nirvana that is necessary.”
Above the third heaven, the Soldier Saint is in trouble.
Above the temple, the military palace was removed.
Under the sky, the military strategists perished.
Under such circumstances, the ordinary holy way should have been destroyed long ago, but how can a military strategist be ordinary? He just took a different path.
If you remove my name from your temple, I will remove my name from myself.
If you don't give me the quota of Jinshi and Confucian scholars, Mianzhou is an authentic human country. How can you not give me the quota of Jinshi? As long as you give me the quota of Jinshi, my military strategists can be commanders on the battlefield and prime ministers in the court. This
The country has gradually become my country! No matter how unhappy I am, you have to obediently give me a place as a Jinshi and watch me grow stronger little by little!
If the demon destroys my home, I will make Burial State my home and establish a demon-killing mechanism so that the entire Burial State and even all the cultivators in the world will come and kill you, demon, even if you are a generation of demons that dominates the heavens and the earth.
Your Majesty, this is a newly born demon baby. All prices are clearly marked and you will be killed without mercy!
This is the military strategist's art of rebirth.
This is a helpless move, this is a last resort, but it is also standard military thinking.
The waiter is here...
When the food was on the table, the waiter enthusiastically introduced, this is the heart of the scale demon, this is the demon blood soup, this is the seven-leaf magic flower, this is...
Lin Su and Yao Gu looked at each other, and they both felt that their own layout was a little too small. If...just if, if all this was the tone set by the military strategist, it would be too cruel. This is not just
Killing demons means crushing the demons to their ashes. Not even their flesh and blood will be spared, not even the vegetation growing there.
Fortunately, the waiter in the shop saw their doubts and explained to them that these are the flesh and blood of monsters, not demons. Although demons deserve to die, we are human beings and do not engage in cannibalism. We only eat monsters, not demons.
people.
That's right. Lin Su and Yao Gu picked up their chopsticks and tasted the dishes. They were quite delicious...
Wine, oh, yes, there is also wine!
The wine was a demon-suppressing wine with a very resounding name, but Lin Su felt her cheeks bulge after taking a sip of the wine, and it took a lot of effort to swallow it down.
Tears almost came out.
What you are subjugating is not the devil, it is me who you are subduing, sour and confused...
The waiter stood nearby and dared to ask: "Sir, how do you like this wine?"
Lin Su took a breath: "Is this the best wine in your store?"
"That's natural!" The waiter raised his head.
Lin Su was helpless: "Are there white clouds from the far east?"
The waiter said authentically: "I heard in the Far East that they only drink wine, that kind of low-alcohol wine, only women drink it!"
Your mother-in-law!
Your whole family is a girl’s family!
Lin Su cursed in his heart...
The waiter looked at Lin Su, and his eyes accidentally came into contact with Yao Gu. The boy suddenly realized that he had made a mistake. It was too rude for me to say these obviously derogatory words to a standard girl, so I apologized quickly:
"I'm sorry, girl, I made a mistake. I definitely didn't mean the girl by what I said. The girl doesn't look like a girl at all..."
Holy shit!
Lin Su's heart skipped a beat. Can you stop speaking with such a bad mouth?
It's okay to offend me, and I won't care about you. You provoke her for no reason? Are you afraid that she will cut you with a pair of scissors?
But Yao Gu was sitting there, as calm as the moon. How could she ever look even remotely angry?
Lin Su gave her a big thumbs up in her heart...
As the saying goes, a good wife and a good husband will bring few troubles... Oh, no! It should be: a mature and intellectual woman is the standard for traveling far away...
He breathed a sigh of relief: "Little brother, I heard that there will be something big happening at Makino Villa tomorrow. Do you know what it is?"
People who speak freely also have the advantage of speaking freely, that is, no matter what they say or not, this little second brother will just say it if he has something to say...
Makino Villa is looking for a bride tomorrow!
It has issued VIP tokens to the whole world. Master, haven't you seen that this floor is almost full? They are all talented people from all over the world, and they all want to get married to the lady of the villa.
Looking for a bride?
Lin Su's heart skipped a beat: "Is this young lady amazing? I've seen quite a few people..."
"Young Master, look at what you said. Miss Jiang Si, who is about to get married, is a legend in the entire Burial State. It is said that she has a special bloodline and a cultivation level that is as high as the heavens and the earth. More importantly, the news has spread. She
Your dowry will be a sacred treasure!...Oh, another young master has come over there, I will go and receive him..."
The waiter hurried towards the stairs, and a handsome scholar floated in. This man had a handsome appearance, a folding fan in his hand, and walked as if he didn't recognize his relatives. There was a slight smile on his face...
Lin Su withdrew his gaze and landed on Yaogu's face: "The legitimate daughter of Makino Villa is recruiting a bride, and the whole world is announcing it?"
Yao Gu said: "Isn't this unusual? Who among the major forces in the world has not entered into a marriage alliance? There are many alliances with other major forces through marriage."
"It is indeed normal to achieve the binding of major forces through marriage. However, the general marriages between major forces are often directional and open to attract young people to compete. This is not the inherent idea of marriage between major forces."
Yao Gu's heart moved, yes...
In today's world, it is not easy for every family. Even the Holy Family of Nongsheng, where Yaogu lives, has a history of marriage with the royal family of Daqing Kingdom. Marriage has always been the most direct means to bind the two major forces because it is convenient and fast.
And it is not surprising at all that it is popular in the world.
However, he is also right. Generally, marriages are directional, focusing on the family status of the other party and not the personal abilities of the other party.
Open marriage recruitment, on the contrary, ignores the family status of the other party and only values the ability of the person seeking marriage.
Makino Villa publicly recruits a bride for their legitimate daughter in front of the entire Burial State, which is not a marriage.
At least, it's not a marriage in the ordinary sense.
Yaogu wanted to understand this for a moment: "Few women in big forces can choose their own destiny. It seems that there are few women who can go beyond the inherent routine of marriage and choose a husband on the basis of merit."
Very unique... Hey, do you have any ideas?"
Lin Subai glanced at her: "What can you think of?"
Yaogu smiled softly: "Choose on the basis of merit, Third Young Master Su! If you come forward and she chooses on the basis of merit, what do you think the result will be?"
Lin Su stroked his forehead: "I remember you just taught me a lesson in the early stage, not to mess with women."
"It's the same now!" Yao Gu said: "For the sake of her dowry, I think you might as well make an exception."
"Dowry?" Lin Su was slightly startled.
"Didn't you hear what the waiter said?" A mysterious meaning appeared in Yaogu's eyes: "Her dowry is a holy treasure! No family can have too many holy treasures, and as far as I know, military strategists
, there is only one holy treasure that is truly famous in the world: Zhou Tianjing!"
Lin Su suddenly raised his head...
"Zhou Tianjing is the goal of our trip, and I suddenly discovered that this thing is not only useful to you, but also to the demons if they get it, it will be even more useful!" Yaogu said: "Zhou Tianjing locks all things in the sky, and the devil's moon shadow, as long as it is locked,
Absolute kill, the two are a perfect match! And Makino Villa suddenly played this trick and recruited a daughter-in-law to marry her on the basis of merit. Can you be sure that the final winner will not have an affair with the demons? "
Lin Su's brows suddenly locked...
Regardless of whether he was pretending or not, what Yao Gu said was shocking.
Makino Villa has made it clear that the holy treasure will be used as the dowry for the legitimate daughter.
Yaogu is right, there are not many holy treasures in any force, and among military strategists, the holy treasure that is rumored to be Zhou Tianjing is Zhou Tianjing.
Zhou Tianjing is the target of their trip, and it is related to the demonic path Yueying.
The Zhou Tianjing is even more useful to the demon clan.
There are countless heroes from the human race on the Demon Clan's Death List, including him, Lin Su.
The fundamental reason why they failed to kill Lin Su was that they were unable to lock on him. Lin Su was defeated by the demon twice, which meant breaking their lock.
What if they had a Zhou Tianjing in their hands that could be accurately locked in the vast sea of people?
That Zhou Tianjing is an enhanced version of the magic guide positioning!
At that time, it will no longer be a matter of putting a magic lead on Lin Su. Instead, as long as you get a piece of Lin Su's hair or a personal item, you can kill him from a distance!
Can Lin Su still defend?
How to prevent it?
The poems he wrote in his own hand can become his noose, the hair he left behind can become his noose, anything he sheds when he sleeps with a woman can become his noose, then he is totally defenseless!
If he is like this, what about others?
By that time, I am afraid that none of the people on the Demon Clan’s Death List will be able to escape!
Yes, Zhou Tianjing, the heaven-defying artifact, is currently not in the hands of the demons, but may be in the hands of Makino Villa.
Makino Villa is basically a military strategist.
The hatred of the demon clan is engraved in the bones of the military people. It is natural that their treasures will not be given to the demon clan. However, how can anything be taken for granted in this world?
If Zhou Tianjing is the dowry, this legitimate daughter will control the future.
A certain talented man in this restaurant married his legitimate daughter, and Zhou Tianjing was indirectly controlled by him.
Even if you can believe that the legitimate daughter of a military strategist has principles and a bottom line, can you still believe that the person who marries his legitimate daughter must have a bottom line of principles?
You need to know that this hellish place called Zianzhou is a mixed bag.
Demons are always infiltrating.
It is possible for any force to have problems.
What's more, if Makino Villa throws out such a big piece of bait in advance, how can the demons or those forces that have something to do with the demons not be tempted?
Maybe, among these marriage seekers, there is a certain chess piece tailor-made by the demon clan!
Once the demons customize this marriage, then this person will definitely be outstanding!
You must never doubt the methods of the demons!
What they plan to do must have been carefully planned in every aspect, and the chess piece they chose must be extraordinary, and no one can stop them.
The first day after arriving in Zangzhou.
Lin Su and Yao Gu had just settled on the edge of Makino Villa when a message suddenly popped up. After some interpretation and thinking, Lin Su actually felt like stepping into a fierce battlefield.
"Did you suddenly feel a sense of crisis?" Yao Gu asked.
Lin Su smiled softly: "No, I suddenly became somewhat interested... Now there is only one thing left. The first daughter must marry and the token can be entered. Do we have a chance to get a token?"
While they were talking, the waiter who had just received them had already greeted the young scribe who had just gone upstairs.
"Is this young master the same person?"
The young master smiled, stretched out his hand, and a folding fan appeared in his palm, with the fan head facing upwards, and looked at the waiter with a smile.
The waiter looked around and saw that the tables were all full: "I'm sorry, sir, the second floor is full, why don't I apologize and move you..."
The young man stepped forward and arrived at a table near the window on the left: "Two brothers, are you here to participate in Makino's marriage recruitment?"
At that table, two young men of letters, one dressed in purple and the other in white, were extremely elegant. They seemed to have carefully tidied up their makeup. At this moment, they raised their heads at the same time: "Exactly, Your Excellency is..."
"Xiaosheng Zhuge Qingfeng, a native of Nanzhou, also came to participate in Makino's wedding. However, he did not have a token and was not allowed to enter. I heard that all the heroes living in this building had tokens, so I wanted to come and buy...
"
All the people at the surrounding tables laughed, and the two people in front of Zhuge Qingfeng naturally laughed too: "Brother, do you think that the person who came here to ask for a bride is the kind of person who needs a few taels of silver from you? The purchase token will make everyone else laugh!
"
Zhuge Qingfeng gently scratched his head: "Brother, what you said is wrong. Everything in the world has a price. It is a joke to buy a token for a few taels of silver, but so what if a hundred taels are not enough? A hundred taels is not enough, so what about a thousand taels? A thousand taels
It's not enough, but so what? You need to know that this token has more than eighty faces, and there is only one winner in the end. You have come thousands of miles away, and in the end you can only get one out of eighty. Whatever you think, nineteen will not work.
Why not exchange this ethereal hope for thousands of taels of real gold and silver?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the restaurant was shocked...
Regardless of whether they sell tokens themselves or not, they must admit that what this person said makes sense.
Everything in the world has a price!
The price is in place and all principles are in vain!
Moreover, when they entered Juxianju, they immediately inquired about information about their competitors. The more information they obtained, the lower their confidence became.
They all have outstanding figures in their own families, but they don't know that there are so many outstanding talents in the world. There are so many outstanding talents, including famous poets, literary masters, legendary geniuses with long-standing reputations, and even royal princes...
Many people feel like they have become cannon fodder.
In this case, wouldn't it be a benefit to sell this token at a high price?
However, with the honor of the family and the character of a scholar, there are some psychological barriers to doing this...
A scholar in front of Zhuge Qingfeng frowned: "Brother Zhuge exchanged 10,000 taels of silver for tokens, which is indeed very heroic! However, I, Xiang Yuange, am not short of money. Brother Zhuge still needs to find another owner of the goods!"
Directly refused!
This rejection is so noble!
Zhuge Qingfeng smiled: "It turns out that Xiang Daru is from Nantai. He is indeed a man who is not short of money. I heard that Xiang Daru won the Pearl Villa in a big gamble in the past. Do you dare to gamble with me today?"
