Chapter 38: The first exchange!
"So, you are familiar with this place?"
Xu Chong asked calmly.
"Yeah, very familiar, Jun'er has been here before..."
The girl snapped her fingers proudly, then quickly gave up. "Anyway, I've been here many times. Although I can only see it when I'm very close, Jun'er can recognize the way now with his eyes closed."
Xu Chong pulled the corner of his mouth, and said with a guilty tone, "Bragging."
Sure enough, the girl became anxious all of a sudden: "Bragging?! You...you...if you don't believe me, just listen to Jun'er."
"From the main entrance to the deepest point, you have to walk 13,247 steps. Um... No, it should be 13,242 steps, otherwise you will hit a wall."
"There are 1,600 rows on the bookshelf. The ones on the left are all orthodox techniques, and the ones on the right are all paradoxical techniques."
"Well, Jun'er, are you right about everything?"
The girl asked proudly.
Xu Chong raised his eyebrows.
He knew that in the Golden Finger, Zhengyang Jin was the Zhengfa, and it should be the real name of the technique.
But the side skills...could they be the martial arts that Wang Hezhi mentioned?
“Just barely.”
Xu Chong reluctantly said, "Let me test you again, what is the orthodox method and what is the side method?"
"Ahaha! This won't be a problem for Jun'er."
The girl giggled, then put her hands behind her back and tried to look serious and dignified. "Cultivating the nature and cultivating life is the right way, while maintaining the nature and protecting life is a side technique."
“As the saying goes, Dharma should not be passed on lightly, and techniques should not be practiced too many times.”
"If you spread the law easily, the world will be in chaos."
"If you are greedy to practice miscellaneous techniques, the great path will become more difficult."
"As children of the royal family, you must remember this... Uh, ahem, this sentence doesn't count."
The girl suddenly changed her tune, and the airs she had put on disappeared.
Xu Chong suppressed his laughter and said, "Not bad, you are indeed a child of the royal family."
The girl was thin-skinned and her cheeks turned slightly red when she was praised.
"I'll give you another difficult test. If you answer correctly, I won't tell your father that you sneaked in today. How about that?"
Xu Chong finally showed his true colors.
"Ah! Really?"
The little girl exclaimed, and immediately patted her chest, "Grandpa, ask, Jun'er will definitely be able to answer."
"If an ordinary person who has not practiced martial arts comes here for the first time, what kind of orthodox and side techniques would be best to exchange?"
After Xu Chong asked this question, a hint of anticipation appeared on his face.
The Daqing Arsenal was so huge that, excluding those parts whose contributions were not enough to exchange, the remaining parts would probably take him a long time to search.
And to be honest, with his knowledge, he has no way of judging what is good or bad.
Although this girl is young, she is very smart and may know something.
"Hmm... This is my first exchange. I think someone told Jun'er about this."
The girl frowned and thought hard. After a moment, her eyes lit up: "I remember! It's Mingyu Jin and Zhefeng Hand!"
You really know?!
Xu Chong was a little surprised.
Could it be that the little girl has read all the books in this hall?
"The third brother made a bet with the sixth brother, saying that if someone could choose one of the two books during the first exchange, he would give the most beautiful dancer to the sixth brother."
As she spoke, the girl showed a bewildered look, "Grandmaster, what does Run mean?"
“…”
Xu Chong almost burst out laughing, and said vaguely: " It means beautiful."
"oh!"
The girl suddenly realized, "Then when Jun'er grows up, he should be very smooth too!"
!!!
What lewd words!
Xu Chong's eyelids twitched wildly, and he quickly spoke out to stop them: "Okay, you've passed, hurry up and get out, or you'll be discovered by your father if you're any later."
"ah!"
The girl screamed, picked up the hem of her skirt and ran out, not even bothering to count her steps.
"Don't tell anyone about your encounter with me, or it will be exposed."
Xu Chong added.
"whee."
The little girl turned her head and made a face while running, "Jun'er is not that stupid, Grandfather, please don't look down on Jun'er."
Xu Chong curled the corner of his mouth and watched the girl run away.
I have to say, this Jun'er is innocent and a little bit eccentric, so it's hard to dislike him.
I hope she can really keep her mouth shut.
The next step is to find Mingyu Jin and Zhefeng Hand.
Xu Chong first walked along the bookshelf, searching and broadening his horizons at the same time.
Occasionally, he would meet someone looking for or flipping through a book. Even if they heard Xu Chong's footsteps, they would ignore him, obviously unable to see that far.
After half an hour, Xu Chong finally found his own place...an area priced at thirty contributions.
"It's really inhumane not to put up a sign."
After complaining, Xu Chong began to look for Ming Yujin.
He had made plans as early as when he first came in.
Thirty contribution points can be exchanged for one martial art, and the rest can be exchanged for skills.
Kung Fu cannot be practiced together. If you have already practiced Zheng Yang Jin, it seems a waste to do so.
But Xu Chong thinks it's worth it.
The Daqing court controlled the world to such an extent that he didn't believe that there were no records of contribution exchanges.
If someone were to target him and discover that his strength far exceeded the skills he exchanged for, that would be a disaster.
Therefore, the more contribution he makes to the skills, the more strength he can display.
As for martial arts, I believe that, like Zhengyang Jin, they can be forcibly improved by relying on spiritual energy, so there is no need to worry about not having enough.
Thinking of this, not long after, Xu Chong found Ming Yujin in an inconspicuous corner.
The marked price is twenty-seven points, the ninth level of enlightenment, and the first level is three points.
"Uh, how do you redeem it? Just flip through it?"
Xu Chong took the booklet and opened the first page.
A layer of light emerged from the book, slowly condensed into a point of light, and floated beside him.
Xu Chong didn't get any information.
"By the way, you can use your contribution to redeem for others, so you should take this out to use."
Xu Chong seemed to understand something and flipped through the pages of the book.
With each turn of a page, new light would rise and merge into that spot of light, making it bigger, until all nine pages were turned.
If you look at it alone, it is very similar to the materialized spiritual source.
"interesting."
Xu Chong put the booklet back, and then repeated the same method and found the Zhefeng Hand on the other side.
The strange thing is that Zhe Feng only had one page in his hand, and when he picked it up, it automatically condensed into a second light spot.
At this point, all thirty contribution points have been consumed.
"Martial arts aren't divided into different levels like techniques?"
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, the scene in Xu Chong's vision suddenly distorted.
When it was finalized again, it had already returned to the county government office.
Wang Hezhi dozed off leaning back in his chair, his long snow-white beard trembling.
It seems that he has never left.
Xu Chong retracted his gaze and raised his right hand and spread it out.
There are two transparent beads, one big and one small.
"Well……"
Wang Hezhi opened his eyes dazedly, "You're out so soon? I thought you were going to stay in there for three days."
"Three days?"
Xu Chong was stunned.
"You are an ordinary person. Three days without food or water is already the limit."
Wang Hezhi showed a wicked smile, "Generally speaking, people who enter the armory for the first time will go all the way to the end, even if they encounter bumps and bruises along the way... Didn't you go all the way to the end?"
"No."
Xu Chong lied with open eyes.
"How far have you walked?"
"About a hundred steps. I turned back when I realized my contribution was over thirty."
"Only a hundred steps?!"
Wang Hezhi's eyebrows were raised, and he kept saying his catchphrase, "You are confused!"
