Chapter 255 Entering the Royal Palace
The next morning, Li Sen got up for morning exercise as usual.
As soon as the guard of Taojiabao was Li Sen, he retreated very respectfully.
"Master Li Sen is really diligent." In a sentry tower in Taojiabao, a bodyguard said, "If we used to practice so diligently every day, we might not have to be guards here now."
"Ha ha, the key is that we won't be so diligent." Another bodyguard said, "What's more, he is still an alchemist. It is the most rare existence that an alchemist is so diligent. Many people only see the achievements of geniuses, but ignore the efforts of geniuses. Master Li Sen's behavior is not like a show, but has been accumulated for a long time. I think his muscles are tight and stripes, and obviously he has a lot of physical quenching.
"From Master Li Sen's movements, I saw some mysterious things." The first bodyguard who opened his mouth continued, "I feel that every move he has been tempered thousands of times. These movements are full of artistic atmosphere and explosive power."
"Real master, when everyone sees his movements, their perceptions will not be the same. You have seen a lot of movements from him, but I have seen unparalleled combat experience from here. I don't think Lee Sen has experienced fewer battles than we have. Every move of his has deadly power. If someone provokes him, he will definitely be the most seriously hit.
"Real? He is so young, do you think he has so much time to experience fighting?
"I don't know about that. Maybe he has a special opportunity?"
As a king-level star martial artist and an extremely powerful alchemist, Li Sen can almost clearly hear other people's comments on him. It is undeniable that ordinary people's speculation is sometimes the closest to the truth. According to the normal way, it is almost impossible for Li Sen to reach today's level of strength. If he relies on Li Sen's normal cultivation, then he may be 30 or 40 years old if he wants to reach the current level. According to the cultivation path of ordinary star warriors, only real geniuses can achieve what Li Sen is today in such a short time.
After thinking for a while, Li Sen's morning exercise was over.
Since breaking through the king's level, Li Sen has felt that his body has become active after morning exercise every day. There is a strong force beating in every part of his body, and his whole spirit is also extremely full, and he is in an unprecedented state.
"I believe that in a few days, the strength of my king-level strongman will be completely stabilized." There was a smile on Li Sen's face, "In this way, my strength can be improved again, and the imperial level is just around the corner!"
"Hahaha, Brother Li Sen is really diligent." A bright laughter came out, and then a man came to Li Sen. It was Tao Tong.
"It turned out that the senior came." Li Sen looked at Tao Tong and then greeted him with a smile, "I don't know what's the matter with the senior who came to me?"
"The news that the master is a local alchemist has been rumored throughout the city. Many people want to visit the master. I'm afraid of disturbing the master's rest, so I made up my own initiative to refuse all." Tao Tong smiled and said, "But Your Majesty heard about the master and wanted to see the master, so let me invite the master to the palace for lunch today."
"I know." When Li Sen heard this, he immediately nodded, and then added, "When shall we leave?"
"I'll leave after breakfast." Tao Tong smiled and said, "The palace is vast, among which the pavilions and pavilions are one of the best. Since the master is here, wouldn't it be a loss if you don't take a good look?"
"Well, that's true." Hearing this, Li Sen nodded immediately, "In this case, the rest will be arranged by the Tao family..."
*
It only took about an hour to ride a slowly swallowing carriage from Taojiabao to the palace.
When Li Sen came to the front of the palace, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, because the wall of the palace was only five meters high. This kind of wall is very different from the Daxia country where Li Sen is located.
"Master Li Sen is surprised by the height of the wall?" Tao Tong smiled and said to Li Sen, "I'm afraid that even ordinary Xingwu warriors can't stop this three- or five-meter-high wall, right?"
"Yes, the wall of a palace is so low, which is completely different from what I saw outside." Li Sen said, "Excessive outside, the wall is at least 20 meters high, and there are many formations on it. But this is not the case at all. The first time I came to this central continent, I found that I didn't know many things.
"Ha ha, the central continent is indeed a little complicated. In fact, it's not only Master Li Sen's confusion. Many star warriors who come in from other places have this kind of doubts. No matter how high their cultivation and strength are, they have encountered things that they don't understand." Tao Tong said, "In the Xingwu Continent, in the vast majority of countries, although the royal family is the ruler, it does not control sects and religions. However, it is different in the central continent. The royal family can be said to be the most powerful sect in one place. The royal family of almost every country has a strong Shinto. In front of the strong Shinto, these walls are naturally useless. As long as a royal family does not perish, even if there is no wall, no one dares to invade, but if the strong Shinto dies, no matter how well the wall is built, it will be in vain.
Hearing this, Li Sen felt a little shocked in his heart. Looking at the palace again, he couldn't help nodding.
After a simple routine inspection of the guard, Li Sen and his party were sent to the palace.
As soon as he entered the palace, Li Sen was a little surprised to find that the whole palace was not magnificent and not as luxurious as he thought. However, Li Sen took a closer look and found that every building was very good, secretly in line with nature, and there was a harmonious beauty.
"The periphery of the whole palace is for ordinary people, reflecting nature." Tao Tong explained to Li Sen in a very timely manner, "In the middle is magnificent, reflecting wealth; and finally, there is a golden iron horse, reflecting the majesty of the royal family."
Li Sen listened and suddenly felt that the layout of the royal family was very good.
Everyone talked as they walked, and Li Sen gradually understood why the royal family was so arranged. At the very end, ordinary people can come into contact with the royal family using nature to express their benevolence to ordinary people and the love of the royal family. The rich people in the middle are the royal family who specialize in receiving rich businessmen and various forces, so it reflects the wealth to show them, so that they have confidence in the royal family's finances and support the royal family's construction plan. Finally, those who can reach the depths of the core of the royal family are naturally the dignitaries, some powerful forces, for these For ambitious people, the royal family shows them majesty and let them know that the royal family cannot be bullied or betrayed at will.
"It is worthy of being the central continent, and the background is really strong." Li Sen opened his mouth and praised, "Every arrangement contains a deep meaning, and it also affects others unconsciously. It's really amazing."
Tao Tong listened and smiled and didn't say anything. As a smart tour guide, he knows what to say and what not to say. Everyone walked all the way, and then Li Sen experienced three levels of the palace.
After this tour, most of the time has been consumed.
Li Sen and others then entered the palace banquet hall under the leadership of the messenger and saw Zhao Wu, the emperor of the State of Zhao, on the spot.
"See Your Majesty!" Everyone bowed to Zhao Wu at the first time.
Li Sen did not want to bow to others. Since he came to this world, he has never bowed like an untruly respected person. Therefore, although he faced the emperor of a central continent at this time, he still did not move at all. He just stood there and looked outstanding and a little eye-catching.
"Today is just a private banquet, and everyone is free of charge." Zhao Wu smiled and said, "A local alchemist came to our state of Zhao, which made all forces unable to sleep. In order to communicate better with you, I specially held this banquet, just so that you can have a good exchange with the alchemist."
When Zhao Wu's voice fell, everyone was naturally flattered, and most people were praising him for his wisdom and martial arts.
Zhao Wu obviously didn't pay attention to the flattery of the people around him. He focused on Li Sen with a smile on his face: "Master Li Sen, welcome to the State of Zhao!"
"Thank you very much for inviting me to the royal family." Li Sen said, "I feel very honored."
"What a humble alchemist. I can feel that your master must be a great alchemist." Zhao Wu smiled and said, "I don't know who your master is. Maybe we will know each other."
"The two elders of Venus." Li Sen replied with a smile, "Different from ordinary alchemists, my teachers are two, so I don't think your majesty will know my master."
Li Sen's voice fell, and the venue where there was a whispered discussion quickly quieted down. People looked at Li Sen in surprise and seemed to feel very incredible.
An alchemist actually has two teachers, but they have never heard of this situation. If this is not said by Li Sen himself, but by others, then they will definitely think it is a big joke, and people who say such words will also be regarded as idiots. But this was said by Li Sen, a powerful alchemist. Of course, people will not think that Li Sen is an idiot, nor will they question the authenticity of Li Sen's words, which makes them feel very shocked.
"Two teachers." Hearing this, Zhao Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, and then laughed, "Okay, it's really great. Today, I can see a rare double teacher genius in ten thousand years. I, the emperor of the State of Zhao, am not in vain."
"Your Majesty is flattered!" Li Sen said.
The banquet began immediately, and the maids came out of the small door. These women wear palace buns and deep clothes connected up and down. They walk in a dignified and charming manner. When pouring tea, they brush their wide sleeves, with a golden ring with white jade arms and a white jade ring, which is indescribably touching. Some women, with pearls hanging behind their ears and sachets hanging on their chests, are dancing. When they pass by people, they give people a soft and fragrant feeling, which makes this court feast indeed extraordinary.
At the beginning, Zhao Wu toasted everyone, and people began to experience the delicious food on the table.
After all, the world is based on martial arts. Although there are many tedious etiquette, it is much simpler than some banquets in Li Sen's previous life. Li Sen first came here, and he was an alchemist himself, so he didn't need to worry about anything and enjoy the delicious food at the table. During this period, some people often came up to toast, and Li Sen received all the orders and even took them all. When he came to the central continent, if Li Sen wants to save his mother and create a strong and stable rear for his parents, he needs to form forces and accumulate some connections for himself.
"Mr. Li Sen, you are from those remote places. You must have never eaten such delicious food in our central continent. Look at what you like, you must be very happy because of these delicious food." A very abrupt voice suddenly sounded, which quickly quieted the whole banquet.
Zhao Wu, the lord of the State of Zhao, was drinking on the throne at this time, as if he didn't hear this sound.
"Ha ha, did I get it right? Don't be embarrassed. Although the competition in our central continent is fierce, we have never lost some food alms to many poor people. The other party's voice sounded again, and people could see who was talking.
This is a very young man. He wears an alchemy robe and looks arrogant and confident. He looks at Li Sen's eyes with a little thick disdain. Someone was going to teach the person who said crazy words a lesson. At this time, when he saw the young man, he closed his mouth one after another, with an unexpected look on his face.
"Since I came to the central continent, Li Sen, except for conflicts with sand bandits, I am confident that I have not offended anyone and forces. I don't know where I have offended you?" Li Sen asked, "Why do you want to find trouble?"
"No reason, I just feel that someone is pretending and can't get used to it." The young man sneered and said, "You can pretend, and I can naturally express my dissatisfaction. The reason is that simple."
"Pretancy?" Li Sen listened, and his face suddenly became a little cold. His eyes narrowed slightly. "You can eat rice randomly, and you can't talk nonsense. You don't feel uncomfortable if you want to find me, Li Sen. Just draw down the road. It's boring to provoke people in the corner."
"Very good. Although it's a steamed bun from a poor place, he is a little bold to talk to me like this." The young man put away his hands and said to Li Sen, "I want to compare alchemy with you to see if your alchemist is real."
"How to compare?" Li Sen said, "Let's make the rules clear. I'd be happy to accompany you."
"Alchemy three times, and the person who wins twice wins the game." The other party said, "Every alchemy is a different elixir. I'm not embarrassed to embarrass you. Just use the elixir most commonly used by star warriors to compare. These elixirs are Huixing elixir, Juxing elixir and Da Budan.
"What is the time, place and bet?" Li Sen asked, "As long as you make up your mind, I will be happy to accompany you."
"Time is today, and the place is this palace. As for the bet..." The other party said, there was a little contempt on his face. "You poor man, I really don't know what to bet on you. To be honest, I'm embarrassed to bet, so that I don't spread it and people say that I bully people.
"You are poor, as if you are very rich." When Li Sen heard this, there was a trace of sarcasm on his face. "If you are very rich, really take out something. Don't say that others pretend to be better. Although your strength is very good, your performance is too bad. Although you didn't swear when you just provoked me, you don't look like an upbred person. As an alchemist, I feel ashamed to have a colleague like you. Well, since you don't want to bet, I'll bet. In this competition, let's bet on a hundred pieces of ground elixir. If there is no ground elixir, a hundred pieces of ground armor or weapons are fine. You can choose.
Li Sen's voice fell, and the whole audience suddenly heard the sound of inhaling cold air.
One hundred pieces of local elixir? One hundred pieces of armor or weapons? This is definitely a big deal. Such a big bet is too rare and too rare.
Silence, long silence.
As a local alchemist, there is no lack of elixir, weapons or armor. Li Sen's offer completely shocked them. As soon as he raised his eyebrows, Li Sen looked at the other party with some contempt, and then added, "I can take these things from a poor man like me, so I believe that you, a rich alchemist who is not a poor man, should also be able to take it out. Whether you agree or not, just be direct. Of course, if you can't take it out, I won't blame you, as long as you take back yourself.
"Countrybag, don't be proud. I'm blocked with you." The other party said coldly, "Since I became an alchemist, Ba Zhongtian has hardly lacked any elixir, weapons and armor. It's just a hundred pieces, just a small part of my inventory. What's more, I won't lose at all. I don't know if you lost all your property after this competition. Next, you have to rely on alchemy to others to get rich again. I hope you don't feel regret for your behavior!"
"Self-righteousness." Li Sen said lightly and stopped talking.
Ba Zhongtian was choked by Li Sen, and a ferocious look flashed on his face, and then he didn't say anything.
"I didn't expect that a good party would trigger a fight between two young talents." Zhao Wu, the lord of the State of Zhao, said, "However, our State of Zhao has always attached great importance to the training of alchemists. If there were no alchemists, there would be no prosperity of the State of Zhao today. Therefore, in order to inspire the young generation of alchemists, I decided to give the winner of this competition a chance to enter the royal treasure house and let him choose a treasure as a winning reward.
Zhao Wu's voice fell, and the whole audience suddenly calmed down. People did not expect that the competition of the younger generation would make the royal family make such a decision.
