On the Avenue

Chapter 211 Codename: True King (Happy Mid-Autumn Festival)

"Heaven?" Situ Wen was a little puzzled.

"Heaven is an organization under the name of Sanren, it's a code name."

Chen Shi explained to him the origin of the Sanren organization, and then explained the origin of Heaven, saying, "My grandfather and Granny Sha, Uncle Qingyang and other Sanren have a special hobby, they like to search for relics in various places, explore the lost secrets of ancient times, and protect the gods from China, so they established Heaven. Now my grandfather has passed away, Granny Sha said that I am the head of Heaven, but there must not be only a few of us in Heaven, so I want to win over a group of people to make Heaven stronger."

Situ Wen listened to it a little confused. Although the organization of Heaven is under the name of Sanren, it doesn't seem to be a serious organization when you hear this name.

No matter how you listen to it, it has a sense of rebellion.

"But rebellion is fine."

He thought, "I just don't know if it's a rebellion against the imperial court or the true gods?"

"We gathered together because of our interests." Chen Shi explained.

Situ Wen thought, "The interest is to overthrow this world. Judging from the name of the Heavenly Court, it is probably a rebellion against the imperial court and the true gods."

Chen Shi said, "Now that you have joined the Heavenly Court, you are our Heavenly Worker, responsible for the engineering. In the future, you will explore the ruins and build temples for the Chinese gods. You can't refuse."

Situ Wen said generously, "This matter is easy for me, the Lu Ban Sect! Our Lu Ban Sect has been engaged in construction, tomb construction, craftsmen, carpenters, pond digging, mining, stone chiseling, road construction, bridge and road construction, and school construction in fifty provinces over the years. We also built rivers and canals. Building a temple is just a small matter."

Chen Shi's heart moved slightly, and said, "Are there Lu Ban Sects in all fifty provinces?"

Situ Wen nodded.

Chen Shi was shocked.

He originally thought that Luban Sect was just a small sect entrenched in Yudu, but he didn't expect that Luban Sect was actually distributed in all 50 provinces of Xiniu New Continent!

This is definitely not a small sect!

Chen Shi calmed down and asked: "How many people are there in Luban Sect?"

Situ Wen said: "There are more than 15,000 craftsmen on record, including about 10,000 cultivators. But most of them are in the Divine Embryo Realm. If they can cultivate into a golden elixir, they can already be the incense master in various provinces."

Chen Shi was shocked again.

He originally thought that the scale of Luban Sect was similar to that of Taiping Sect, with only a hundred or so people, but he didn't expect it to be so large!

Luban Sect is so large in scale, but Situ Wen, as the sect leader, is only in the Nascent Soul Realm. Can the Nascent Soul Realm control such a huge force?

He expressed his doubts, and Situ Wen said: "We in Luban Sect do hard labor. Many people can't make a living, but they have a lot of strength, so they join the sect. Our rule is that the master takes apprentices, and one master takes four or five apprentices. The smart ones who can endure hardships will stay. Those who can't endure hardships and are stupid will be driven away.

"The apprentices of Luban Sect learn skills while practicing magic. Most of the disciples of Luban Sect have never been to school and can't read a few words. During festivals, they offer sacrifices to the true gods, and occasionally they can get rewards from the true gods and be granted divine fetuses. But there are no serious studies. This kind of people account for the majority of Luban Sect. "

Chen Shi thought about it. It was common for rural children not to go to school. For example, Yuzhu from Huangpo Village did not go to school.

Those who could go to school in the village all had some family background.

When these children grew up, they either stayed at home to dig for food in the soil or went out to work.

But the danger in the city was no less than that in the countryside. If you were not careful, you would be sold to a farm or become a guest of honor in the Wanhun Banner.

It was difficult to make a living. After entering the city, joining a sect like Lu Banmen was a way to make a living.

Situ Wen said: "There are also a small number of people who studied for a few years when they were young and became a scholar. If they failed to pass the imperial examination, they became craftsmen and learned a craft. There were also juren who waited for a few years, but the court did not give them an official position or a salary, so they had to take off their juren robes and learn a craft to make a living. Therefore, the cultivation achievements of us in Lu Banmen are not very high. It is useless if it is high, and it cannot be used for work. "

He had one more thing he didn't say, that is, the advanced skills were all controlled by the worldly families, and they could only learn low-level skills and spells.

Even if they had the talent and understanding, there was nowhere to learn.

Chen Shi smiled and said, "I knew you would come, so I immediately wrote down the Dragon 𫏋Secret after I came back, but I didn't expect you to come so soon. I haven't finished writing the Dragon 𫏋Secret yet , you wait in the village for a while."

Situ Wen agreed, unable to hide his excitement.

Chen Shi went back to the house and continued to write "Dragon 𫏋Secret", while Situ Wen wandered around Hu Village, only to see that the order in Hu Village was in good order, and the fox tribe could actually read and write, and study the master's knowledge and Taoism in the private school.

"The beasts know the importance of knowledge, but our human race cannot learn, and people are not fully utilized. Isn't it sad? "He thought to himself.

Situ Wen turned around for a moment and came to Chen Shi's wooden cart.

He was originally a craftsman. When he saw the wooden cart, his eyes lit up and he came close to study it. At this time, the wooden cart suddenly grew arms and opened its bloody mouth, threatening him not to get close.

Situ Wen's eyes widened, his heart pounding, and a voice in his heart shouted: "It's this! I want to learn this! I have to learn this!"

Learning the Dragon 𫏋 Jue can't surpass the ancestors of Lu Ban's school, but learning the Dragon 𫏋 Jue plus this will definitely surpass the ancestors of Lu Ban's school!

Chen Shi wrote the Dragon 𫏋 Jue and went out to give it to him.

Situ Wen was worried, but he still mustered up the courage to say: "Sir, can I learn this?"

He raised his hand and pointed at the wooden cart.

He had suffered losses at the hands of Chen Shi. The cardinal, the treasure of the Luban sect, was easily turned into a traitor by Chen Shi, which really made him envious.

Chen Shi smiled and said: "This is a southern talisman. It is relatively niche and it is not easy to learn. But here, talismans are all from the same family regardless of north or south. If you want to learn, I will teach you."

Situ Wen was surprised and happy, so Chen Shi simply passed him the haunted house-like talisman.

Situ Wen already had the foundation for drawing talismans, but the southern talismans were rather strange and difficult to master in a short period of time.

On the contrary, he has learned the complete Dragon Skill in a short period of time, and his cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds.

His Yuanying was originally about a foot tall, and he was on the verge of transforming into a god. However, he had no follow-up skills and it was difficult to break through.

Now that the complete Dragon 𫏋 Technique is activated, I feel that the Nascent Soul is about to move, and there are signs of becoming a god!

If you continue to practice at this speed, you will be able to break through to the state of transformation and become a soul, just around the corner!

"You'd better solidify your foundation and don't rush to break through to the realm of divine transformation."

Chen Shi told him, "Your original Dragon Skill has too many flaws, and you have not refined many parts of the Yuanying, Golden Pill, and physical body. Now that you have a complete technique, you can polish it for a while in the Yuanying realm. Make breakthroughs after there are no gaps.”

Situ Wen said yes.

Chen Shi saw that he lacked too many talismans and said: "I have a friend named Yutiancheng, who is a talisman master. It is difficult for you to learn the southern talismans in a short time. Yutiancheng is the leader of the Hongshan Hall Talisman Masters Association. I’ll write you a letter, and if you go to Gongzhou to see him, he will give you a solid foundation and it will be much easier to learn the southern talismans.”

Situ Wen said happily: "Master Jade of the Hongshan Hall Talisman Masters Association? I have also heard of his name. He is a hero in Gongzhou! But the Talisman Masters Association is in the ninth rank. I'm afraid he will look down on me."

Chen Shi shook his head and said, "Yutiancheng is not that kind of person."

Situ Wen said: "Sir, our Luban Sect's annual surplus used to be handed over to the Young Master's chief steward. From now on, when Lu Ban Sect is separated from the Young Master, who will give the surplus to?"

Chen Shi's heart moved slightly: "Master, are you taking money from you?"

Situ Wen nodded and said: "What you take is not much. Lu Ban Sect has a surplus of more than 30,000 taels of silver every year. Master takes 10,000 taels and leaves the rest to Lu Ban Sect to take care of itself. Our Lu Ban Sect is relatively poor, but Rouge Alley has a huge surplus. Rouge Alley in Yudu alone has a surplus of more than 200,000 taels. As for Mingfeng Pavilion, Matchmaker Club, and Happy Forest, there are more or less surpluses. "

Chen Shi hesitated. Tianting was just a grassroots team and no one managed money.

When my grandfather was still alive, he was very poor, which shows that there is no money left in heaven.

Grandma Sha can only rely on the goddess to earn a living. Hu Xiaoliang is the leader of the Fox clan and has no worries about food and drink. Qingyang went to the mountain village to do evil and eat and drink, so it is obvious that she has no money.

There may be other people in heaven, but there is definitely no one in charge of money.

"Shao Jing has a good way of running the business. Maybe we can let him manage the money." Chen Shi said sincerely.

But don't worry about money yet. Chen Chen doesn't have much money now anyway.

"You keep the surplus from Lu Ban Sect for now. It's not time to use the money yet," Chen Shi said.

Situ Wen hesitated for a moment and said, "When I came, Aunt Xue from the Matchmaker Club said that she had found out Mr.'s hometown and was going to bulldoze Huangpo Village."

Chen Shi raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile: "If you hear the truth in the morning, you will die in the evening. Aunt Xue's methods are still too slow. Master Situ, what does Aunt Xue's matchmaker club do?"

Situ Wen said: "The matchmaker association is for men and women to find matchmakers. It is divided into two types, one is the matchmaker and the other is the matchmaker."

Chen Shi was surprised: "Aren't matchmakers and matchmakers the same?"

Situ Wen shook his head and said: "It's different. The matchmaker's main job is matchmaking. If you find out whose girl is old enough to leave the court, she will arrange marriage and introduce the man.

"There are also rules here. If the girl's family gives her a lot of money, she says she's going to be a decent family. If the girl's family gives her a small amount of money, or if she doesn't satisfy the matchmaker, she says she's going to be a concubine to a rich family, or she says behind her back that she's inappropriate. It's a broken shoe or something.

"Or if a rich and powerful family likes a girl, they will ask a matchmaker to propose marriage. Even if the girl's family is not willing, the matchmaker will always find a way to make her agree. Therefore, it is also a profitable business."

Chen Shi asked: "Where is the matchmaker?"

Situ Wen said with a smile: "Have you read The West Chamber? In The West Chamber, the matchmaker is the maid of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Miss Cui Yingying's maid, who makes Cui Yingying and Zhang Sheng's good deeds come true by pulling the strings for Zhang Sheng. The matchmaker is the maid of the Prime Minister. Men and women pull the strings."

Chen Shi thought about it and said, "This is a good thing."

Situ Wen shook his head and smiled: "Sometimes it is a good thing. But sometimes it is not. For example, if I fall in love with Aunt Xue, she is already married and a married woman. If I want to be happy with Aunt Xue, I need to Find a matchmaker from the Matchmaker Club to help us connect."

Chen Shi raised his eyebrows: "How to thread the needle?"

Situ Wen said: "The matchmaker will approach Aunt Xue, become a sister with her, praise me in every possible way in front of her, and create various opportunities for me to get close to Aunt Xue. After this, we will go to bed. Normal matchmakers don't have much money. Earn money, this is the kind of job that makes a lot of money.”

Chen Shi's eyes widened and he lost his voice: "Is this still possible?"

Situ Wen said: "The surplus given to the young master by the Matchmaker Club every year is as much as one hundred thousand taels. The business of the Matchmaker Club is not the best in Yudu, but it is the best in Xijing. Aunt Xue is just a matchmaker in Yudu. He is just the incense master, the president of the Matchmaker Society. I heard that he is a big shot in Xijing and is very close to the young master. I can only look up to him."

He smiled and said: "The handles of some important people often fall into the hands of the Matchmaker Society. The Matchmaker Society can accumulate many connections for the young master. However, although Aunt Xue is only the owner of incense, she has practiced the Seven Transformations and Seven Transformations of the Heavenly Dance. According to legend, It was passed down by the Young Master, and it is extremely powerful, on par with me."

Chen Shi nodded slightly. Situ Wen was extremely powerful. If there was a head-on collision, he would probably not be Situ Wen's opponent.

However, he had seen the Seven Transformations and Seven Transformations Dancing Heaven Technique in the forest of tombstones of King Zhen. It was called Shenzhou Seven Transformations and Seven Transformations Dancing Heaven Technique. He didn't know if it was the same technique.

Chen Shi didn't memorize this technique specifically. He could only remember 70% to 80% of it after briefly recalling it at this moment.

Situ Wen said: "In addition to contacting me, Aunt Xue also contacted Happy Forest. Happy Forest is a casino and also the son's property. The head of Happy Forest is called Du Shenshou, and he practices the Ji Zhao Shen Transformation Technique, which is also passed down by the Master. , extremely powerful.”

"Ji Zhao Shen Transformation Technique?"

Chen Shi's heart was slightly moved. He had seen a technique called "Ji Zhao Shen Transformation Samadhi Sutra" in the Forest of Steles. He didn't know which one was more powerful than the Young Master's Jizhao Shen Transformation Technique.

Situ Wen said: "Aunt Xue also invited Shopkeeper Qiu from Mingfeng Pavilion. Shopkeeper Qiu practices the Thunder Body Technique, which is fierce and domineering, even much more powerful than my spells!"

Chen Shi thought about it, he had also seen the Thunder Body Technique in the Forest of Steles.

I don’t know how Shopkeeper Qiu’s Thunder Body Technique compares to his Thunder Body Technique.

Chen Shi smiled and said, "Are they planning to go to Huangpo Village to kill me?"

Situ Wen said: "I used Yanshi to monitor them. They are still in their respective main altars and have not left."

Chen Shi asked for advice: "Where is the incense altar of the Matchmaker Club? There is also Happy Forest and Mingfeng Pavilion. How to get there? Please also ask Master Situ to tell me the way."

Situ Wen stood up and said, "I will lead you there."

Chen Shi shook his head: "You go to Gongzhou Hongshan Hall to avoid the limelight. I'm afraid something big will happen in Yudu."

He stood up, stretched his muscles and bones, and said with a half-smile: "They want to go to Huangpo Village? Master said that a gentleman wants to be slow in words but quick in deeds. Their understanding of Master is far from enough!"

When Situ Wen heard this, he was filled with admiration: "As expected of you, sir, he talks in one way!"

He quickly said: "I will ask Yanshi to lead the way for you!"

Situ Wen was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and said: "Sir, since it is a heavenly organization, I can't address you as sir. You must have a resounding name, otherwise the name will not be justified."

Chen Shi thought for a moment and said: "The name Young Master has been used by others, and I am ashamed to use this name..."

Situ Wen tentatively asked, "How about you, Sir, use True King as your code name?"

"Codename: True King?!"

Chen Shi said happily, "This name is resounding! Okay, let's use True King!"

Situ Wen was inexplicably excited and felt even more motivated: "The true king really has the ambition to rebel! I am not with the wrong person! Unlike the young master, he rebels coyly, like a girl!"

Chen Shi was very excited.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

"I, who is older than my master, said that even if the enemy is thousands of miles away, I should rush over and kill him immediately! What's more, Aunt Xue and the others are in the city!"

——On the Mid-Autumn Festival, I wish you and your family happiness and joy! !
