"Who are you? Ordinary people shouldn't know that much. Even if you say it's all from a book, this book will never be read by everyone." Xu Qian has always been concerned about the old man's identity.
I'm quite interested, that's all when I was bidding before, but now that the two of them have become inmates, it is still necessary to find out the identity of the other party.
"Haha, little friend, I thought you could keep asking this question forever." The old man's tone was relaxed and his attitude was kind. He didn't look like a person facing a desperate situation at all. His words also contained a hint of teasing Xu Qian.
"Forget it, you and I are destined, and we may not be able to go back to the Tang Dynasty. Since we have to support each other in the future, there is no point in keeping my identity secret. Besides, you will know it sooner or later, so I will tell the truth.
Tell me."
"Having said so much, aren't you just trying to sell things off? This old man is really arrogant." Xu Qian didn't like the roundabout way of speaking.
"I am Qin Zhao, one of the current prime ministers of the Tang Dynasty."
In the luxurious suite where Qin Zhao and Xu Qian lived, there was a "Compilation of Common Sense of the Tang Empire". There was a chapter in it that briefly introduced the main officials of the Tang Empire. It only had text and no pictures. It did mention that Qin Zhao was like this
Personally, he is still in a very front position, and his position seems to be that of chief minister of the cabinet.
The Tang Empire has experienced thousands of changes, but the political structure has not changed much. It still implements the "group system", although the prime ministers of the Tang Dynasty do not have the ability to check and balance the head of a country like the cabinets of other countries.
power, but in the entire Tang Dynasty, he was already the most powerful official.
.In the process of continuous evolution, the Tang Dynasty referred to the systems of various countries and gave the "group system" the title of cabinet. It was different from the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty in Chinese history. The cabinet of the Tang Empire could really
The political center that controls major national events. And Qin Zhao is the core of this center.
If Xu Qian was from the Tang Empire, he would have been speechless after Qin Zhao introduced himself. But Xu Qian is not only not from the Tang Dynasty, he is not even from China. He has no sympathy for such high-ranking officials.
, for him, it is not as exciting as discovering a good dish.
"Oh, you are the chief minister of the cabinet, right? It's a pleasure to meet you." Xu Qian raised his palm as a greeting.
Although Qin Zhao is not the kind of person who likes to accept flattery from others, he does not think it is normal for a Tang person to be so indifferent after knowing his identity.
After being startled for a moment, Qin Zhao laughed and said: "Okay, okay, your temperament is very suitable to me."
Xu Qian glanced at Qin Zhao and thought to himself: "Who wants to be interested in you?"
"Nothing else is important. After talking for a long time, you haven't made it clear yet. What will they do with us?"
"I already said it just now."
Xu Qian rolled his eyes and recalled, remembering the important point. "Death Arena?"
Qin Zhao remained silent, acquiescing.
Xu Qian asked doubtfully: "Then how can you be so calm? You are probably not a martial arts cultivator, let alone an immortal cultivator. If you really want to go to the death arena, someone could kill you with just a breath."
Qin Zhao lowered his eyes slightly and said softly: "So they will not let me go to the death arena, or in other words, this is not the purpose of their arresting me."
Xu Qian was just about to ask something more when an orc appeared outside the cell. The orc didn't say anything, he just threw two black bun-like things on the ground and then left.
Is this prison food? Where’s the water? Don’t you orcs need to drink water?
Qin Zhao picked up a steamed bun and ate it silently. Xu Qian saw that an ordinary person, even an old man, could survive so well. It would be too embarrassing for him to be more squeamish.
"Hey! We don't have enough steamed buns... Could you please give me a few more..." Xu Qian bit into the black steamed buns and asked loudly outside the cell.
After all this shouting, Xu Qian didn't get any more steamed buns. He got a few roars in response, and he didn't know what they meant.
"That's because the orcs in other cells are scolding you because they think you are too noisy. Orcs can only speak human words when they transform. Before that, they can understand human speech and make beast-like roars." Qin Zhao stuffed his mouth.
Holding the steamed bun, he explained vaguely.
It turned out that he was scolded. Xu Qian turned around and glanced at Qin Zhao. Shouldn't an old man like this be careful about eating and sleeping? Why do he talk so much?
In the next two days, except for an orc who came twice a day to deliver prison meals, Xu Qian didn't see anyone else. He ate little, and naturally had nothing to eat. The wooden barrel with a lid in the corner of the cell was also useless.
Pass. As for drinking water, it rained quite a bit yesterday afternoon. In the end, the experienced Lao Qin took out a small bowl filled with rainwater from the window, and the two of them drank to their fill.
A meal.
Xu Qian has not been idle these two days. When he is very hungry, he can only take out Qi Yuan Dan to satisfy his hunger. Firstly, because he only has Qi Yuan Dan that he can eat. Even if Hui Huan Dan and Hui Huan Dan are
You can also take life pills, but you can’t bear to part with them. Both of these pills can save lives.
, the quantity is also small. Secondly, because he has forty-three Qiyuan Pills. With such a large quantity, even if it is used to cushion the stomach, it is not that distressing. Thirdly, judging from his previous experience of taking Qiyuan Pills,
After swallowing this elixir and practicing cultivation, you will not feel hungry for a long time.
But now that he has eaten, he has nothing to do. Xu Qian, who has been working hard, will naturally not waste the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the pill. Therefore, in the past two days, Xu Qian has eaten six Qiyuan Pills. After fully absorbing them, his cultivation level has improved.
Raised to the peak of Martial Saint.
Lao Qin saw all this.
"Old Qin, let me give you this steamed bun, too." Xu Qian has improved his cultivation, is not hungry anymore, is in a good mood, and his attitude towards Qin Zhao is much better.
"Have you eaten enough elixirs?" Qin Zhao said with a smile.
Xu Qian's hand stretched out the steamed buns and stopped midway. Finally, Qin Zhao reached out and took it himself.
"You know I take pills?"
Qin Zhao chuckled, "It's just the two of us here, and we're so close. If I'm still ignorant, wouldn't I be an old fool?"
"That's not right. Although you hold a high position, you are just an ordinary person. How can you know so much about the world of cultivation?" In fact, Xu Qian is quite interested in old man Qin. The calmness of this old man makes people feel...
Very simple.
"Little friend Ye, when you stand on the teacher's platform, you realize that all the little moves you made in class were clearly seen by the teacher. Although I have never practiced martial arts, the Tang Dynasty has been a country with martial arts for thousands of years, and there are many martial arts practitioners.
Mastery of various information in the cultivation world has become a compulsory course for officials, and the interests of the martial arts community are also a top priority that must be considered in handling government affairs. Nowadays, the general knowledge subjects of martial arts have been included in the imperial examinations, how can I
I don’t know anything about the world of cultivation.”
Xu Qian couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the cultivation civilization of the Tang Empire was many years more advanced than that of China.
"But, Ye Xiaoyou," Lao Qin's tone dropped, as if he wanted to say something important.
Xu Qian's game ID is Yiye Guzhou, so when he needs to tell others his name, he tells others that his name is Ye Guzhou.
"This is the first time I've seen someone who takes pills as well as you do."
Although there is a "Magic Book" to provide a foundation, it is not omnipotent. An immortal cultivator, practicing with the master, has someone to teach all the details of cultivation, and the master's classics can be studied, and there are fellow disciples to discuss and discuss.
, this is the most normal path. Xu Qian is alone and has to figure out too many things by himself. Not to mention anything else, it is the theoretical basis of cultivating immortals. He also knows some but not others. This is also the case for most self-taught people.
It is different from those who have received systematic learning.
"How should we eat it?" This time Xu Qian did not blame Old Man Qin for being nosy. This question was indeed what he wanted to know.
"What you are eating should be the Qiyuan Pill. The Qiyuan Pill is essentially highly concentrated spiritual energy from heaven and earth. When you eat it, it is equivalent to the body entering a large amount of spiritual energy in a short period of time. For a practitioner, the amount that can be absorbed is
It is beneficial, but if it cannot be absorbed, it will harm the body. In serious cases, there is even a risk of the Qi sea being destroyed and the body exploding!"
