Chapter 1 A Gathering of Talents(1/2)
It was noon and the sun was scorching.
On the official road leading to Chang'an.
"Teacher, how long will it take for us to arrive in Chang'an?" Yao asked. For the first time, he felt that his love sword "Qian Yao Sword" had gained a bit fat. After returning to Jixia to study, should I give my love sword a weight loss package?
"It's almost there, Chang'an is ahead." The teacher who led the team smiled gently. His clean and cheerful smile made people unable to get angry with him, and he didn't hit the smiling person.
"But you have said this twenty-three times by teacher." Yao reminded.
This time he and Mengqi went to Chang'an, which was a study tour arranged by Jixia Academy.
There are many destinations arranged for this study tour, and in the end, Yao chose Chang'an because of his interest in Chang'an and Li Bai.
"Why don't we take the Xi car?" Yao looked at the Chang'an transportation vehicle that was driving quickly from his side. After approaching Chang'an, the figures of this transportation became frequent, including private Xi car and large Xi car on the bus.
The team leader was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Because... we don't have much money."
"It's not the reason why you keep giving our money to 'destined people' along the way, teacher." Meng Qi said annoyed.
On the way from Jixia Academy to Chang'an, the team leader would generously donate help when he meets people in need because of his overwhelming sympathy. Along the way, the three of them now have little money left. After arriving in Chang'an, they still don't know if the money left on them is enough to stay for one night? Can you have a good meal? Maybe you have to change your shoes.
"Hiking to Chang'an is also a kind of practice~" The leading teacher once again showed a harmless smile of humans and animals - this time the study tour arranged by Jixia College is not only a relaxation after studying, but also a teaching + exam.
While Yao and Mengqi were in a state of power, the team teacher led the team to take out the small notebook and quickly wrote a page of content at a cross speed per second.
At the end of this page: [It's almost time to arrive in Chang'an, Meng Qi and Yao haven't even shot me away in one shot, which is a bit beyond my expectations.]
When he wrote this comment, he felt a little guilty. Yao and Meng Qi passed the level of patience.
His mission on this trip is a ruthless assessor, who scores the two students from the most fair perspective!
"Next, when you arrive in Chang'an City... the story will really begin." The team teacher put away his notebook and looked towards Chang'an.
Chang'an is very interesting now. A competition between two groups is brewing.
In order to successfully get the two students into the game, he tried hard to spend all the money on the three of them on the way, so that the two students could be self-reliant after arriving in Chang'an and take the opportunity to integrate into the Chang'an story. This is his good intention, and it is not his fault that he does not have financial management capabilities.
After Chang'an, Yao and Mengqi will take action under his arrangement. Then, they will encounter that interesting trial match.
At that time, will Yao and Mengqi choose to participate in the selection competition?
It should be true, after all, Li Bai's swordsmanship experience in the selection competition will definitely make Yao excited.
The leader's lips rose wildly.
...
Chang'an·Baihumen·Lifefang Group Area
The team teacher took Yao and Mengqi to stay in the inn.
"Is this a unique market in Chang'an? Even the inn looks like it can move as a whole at any time." After checking in the inn, Yao and Mengqi developed a strong interest in Chang'an, a city of ever-changing institutions that can move.
He lay beside the inn window, watching the prosperous scene outside the window.
"Yes, our area is a feature of Chang'an, a mobile market. All the buildings here are composed of independent 'fangs', and the inn is no exception." The team teacher introduced this magical city of change to Yao and Mengqi.
Chang'an is a miracle city that seems to have life, and its meridians connect one by one.
Every few times, some new arches will be born in Chang'an City. These arches are the foundation of the market, and will be processed, decorated and transformed into different functions.
When many different yards are concentrated according to their functions, Chang'an's unique 'fang group culture' is formed. For example, life yard groups, entertainment yard groups, creation yard groups, calligraphy and painting yard groups, etc.
Pingkangfang and Changlefang are the more distinctive types in the entertainment club. Their singing and dancing life are areas where literati and scholars drink and have fun.
The inn they stayed in is a shop with little speciality in the life workshop group - the biggest feature is that it is cheap, suitable for guests who are inexpensive and have shortages in their money.
"A thing like a fang embryo can be born every few times? What about some old fangs or destroyed fangs?" Yao asked curiously.
"I said that Chang'an is a city of all things that can move... All the yards can move. Maybe the inn under our feet will slowly move at a speed that is invisible to the naked eye. When the yard is dilapidated and useless, it will be gradually moved to the bottom of the city and finally recycled." The team leader explained: "You are lucky and you may have the opportunity to see the 'welcoming ceremony' of the major yard groups in Chang'an."
Yao and Mengqi cooperated to show their expectations. Young people are always curious about such new things, and everything in Chang'an is attracting them.
"But before that, I want to tell you something very important." The team leader looked serious.
"Are you something you need to pay attention to in Chang'an?" Yao asked. As the captain, if there are any precautions, he will remember them firmly.
The teacher in charge shook his head and said sadly: "We have no money. After the next meal, we will truly enter the ranks of the disparate literary class. If we don't find a way to earn some living expenses, we will starve to death in the inn."
Mengqi: "Don't the inn provide food?"
"No, it is the cheapest inn after all. If we starve to death, we may need additional payment to collect the body. If we don't have money, then the government and weapons on us will be taken away to pay off our debts. In the end, we will be buried naked." The leader gave a thumbs up.
Meng Qi felt the blue veins in his temple beating uncontrollably, and he looked at Yao: "So, what should we do?"
"You can stroll around the living room area, or go to the four gates of Chang'an, and you may gain something." The team teacher reminded that the time is almost the same, and it is time to guide these two students to take a walk in Chang'an to trigger the plot.
After thinking for a while, Yao laughed: "Let's go, let's go for a walk around Chang'an City."
"I understand." Meng Qi took out 'Huntian', as if he understood what Yao meant: "Let's have fun!"
Leading the team teacher: "?"
What do you want to do in Chang'an? Don't go to Dali Temple when the time comes, and I need to bail you. I have explained it thoroughly in advance, we have no money now.
...
Yao and Mengqi had no idea of making a big fuss in Chang'an.
One by one, one by one, one behind, walking on the streets of Chang'an, all kinds of ches and mechanisms passed by the two, and occasionally you could see gorgeous flower boats slowly flying over the sky. In the prosperous Chang'an, what you saw with your own eyes was more shocking than the legendary ones.
"Where are we going next?" Meng Qi was a little curious. After leaving the inn, Yao moved in one direction with a goal. Could it be that Yao already had a way to make money?
"Zhuque Gate." Yao said without looking back: "Since I confirmed that the destination of my study tour was Chang'an, I thought about coming here to see it-Li Bai once engraved poems at Zhuque Gate."
Mengqi: "If you are going to see Li Bai's engravings, you can go and see them alone, without bringing mine."
He knew that the captain was a fan of Li Bai, and he also knew that the captain had learned to write words in the Tower of Tongtian by Li Bai.
But he is not Li Bai's fan!
"What are you saying? Since you are a teammate, how can I leave you alone in Chang'an? Of course we have to act together." Yao laughed.
"Action? What do you want to do? You don't want to play with engraving on the Suzaku Sect, do you?" Yao Zhen can do such a thing!
In front of the Suzaku Gate.
Yao and Meng Qi looked at the sword marks left by Li Bai from afar.
"I want to climb up to the blue sky and embrace the bright moon..." Yao recited this poem softly, and realized the powerful sword intent from it. As he looked, he was actually immersed in the divine.
I don’t know how long it took, Meng Qi gently pushed him: “Have you seen enough? If you look at it again, the guards will come.”
At this time, the guards in front of Zhuque Gate looked at the two of them with a sense of vigilance.
Over the years, there have always been swordsmen coming to see the engravings of sword immortals. Some swordsmen even come to learn and draw swords and improvise a set of sword techniques.
The guards have already had experience, and if there is a little sign, they will come up to stop them.
"Have I watched it for a long time?" Yao woke up.
"I realized it?" Meng Qi asked - a swordsman is different from a ranged shooter with just firepower. The swordsman always realizes it as he thinks, and then his strength has increased greatly, which is not scientific at all.
"I have realized half and half. But my experience is not enough. If I want to fully understand it, I need more experience." Yao regretted: "Let's go and go to other locations in Chang'an. The stars have guided us. They told me that the opportunity to make money is waiting for me."
"I believe you, a ghost." Yao's second-year illness was recurring. Should he stay away from Yao so that people would not be treated equally with a look of stupidity?
...
Chang'an City Qinglong Gate
Under the guidance of intuition, Yao came here.
Then, in Mengqi's incredible expression, they really encountered something interesting.
According to the introduction of the teacher leading the way, all the archery embryos in Chang'an City will be born every once in a while, and then the Tai Chi Palace will decide to allocate the Xinsheng market.
A few days ago, a wave of new life embryos was born.
However, this year, the distribution of Xinsheng Blossoms and the "Creation Blossoms" was inconsistent, and finally decided to decide the ownership and distribution rights of Xinsheng Blossoms based on the agency polo match and duel.
This kind of thing is no longer new in Chang'an.
The number of random embryos that appear randomly is limited, which cannot meet the expansion and replacement needs of all embryos. Therefore, there will inevitably be contradictions in the allocation of embryos. If the embryos do not agree with the allocation of embryos in the embryos, then there are two solutions.
First, I will go to the heaven to listen and ask the empress to decide the ownership of the new embryo.
The second is to play the unique "organized polo match" in Chang'an City, where the winner occupies the majority of the distribution rights.
There are many types of game entertainment events in Chang'an's mechanism polo competition. When deciding on the new wing, a 6V6 duel is often adopted. In one game, six games are in the opponent's crystal tower to get points; in the end, the score leads or smashes the opponent's crystal tower team to win.
The institutional polo competition is a grand event in Chang'an. Outstanding players on the court are treated as stars in Chang'an.
If there is normal development, then in a few days, the representative teams of the "Life House Group" and the "Creation House Group" will decide the winner and lose the winner and get the big head of the gang's embryo distribution rights for their own gang.
But what is unexpected is that the Craftsman Group did not play according to the routine this year, and spent a lot of money before the game, and paid a sky-high liquidated damages, directly poaching the major players of the Lifestylesman Group representing the team "Kirin Team".
This forced the lifestyle group to urgently summon new polo experts.
The Life House Group is under the Qinglongmen ranking and auditions. As long as you represent the Life House Group in the polo competition through the audition, you can get high rewards regardless of the winner.
If the final victory is achieved, several great masters of the Life Group are willing to give out various treasures - puppet organ beasts with collection levels and fine wine that is hard to find.
The most important thing is that there is also a manuscript of swordsmanship left by the sword immortal Li Bai!
