After Jiang Wenyuan knew Chu Xiu's identity, he really wanted to recruit Chu Xiu. It was not the kind of simple friendship and relationship building, but the kind of recruitment that recruited him under his command and used him for his own use.
To be fair, Jiang Wenyuan's men are actually not weak in strength. Over the years, he has relied on his status as the King of Anle, and he has been generous and generous to the outside world. He has actually recruited many warriors to become his disciples, including even those in the realm of the unity of heaven and man.
All the great masters have it.
But there is really no one like Chu Xiu who can stand out among the younger generation.
Strong men of the younger generation like Chu Xiu represent potential. If you recruit them under your command, their future achievements may not be inferior to those of great masters who are in the realm of harmony between man and nature, but the cost will be less.
a lot of.
And not only is it potential, it also represents the strength of his subordinates, Prince Anle, under Jiang Wenyuan.
In addition to a leader, any force must have strong men who can suppress the entire force, a large number of capable backbones, and outstanding young disciples. Only in this way can it be considered a force with unlimited potential.
Jiang Wenyuan is ambitious, and he is naturally developing in this direction. Over the years, he has recruited high-level experts, and there are also many backbone warriors with good strength like Xiao Ting, but only in the field of young warriors, he
But his subordinates have nothing to offer.
Most of the young heroes on the Dragon and Tiger List come from big families and sects. They can maintain a good relationship with you, Jiang Wenyuan, but they are absolutely impossible to be loyal to you, Jiang Wenyuan.
Now that he finally saw Chu Xiu and learned that he was not a disciple trained by the Guanzhong Punishment Hall since childhood, Jiang Wenyuan naturally started to think of poaching.
In the past, Guan Siyu dared to disgrace him, but today he came to poach Guan Siyu!
After Chu Xiu and Jiang Wenyuan took their seats, the other young heroes on the seventh floor looked at Jiang Wenyuan with puzzled eyes. They didn't know why Jiang Wenyuan gave Chu Xiu such face.
You must know that with Jiang Wenyuan's identity, there are countless young heroes coming and going to Julong Pavilion these days, but only very few are able to be entertained by Jiang Wenyuan personally. How could Chu Xiu Hede be treated like this by Jiang Wenyuan?
Even Bai Wuji looked gloomy, you know, even he didn't get this treatment.
When he first came to Julong Pavilion, although Jiang Wenyuan was very polite to him and even personally welcomed him to the seventh floor, he did not say that he would personally prepare a banquet to entertain him.
After a while, teams of maids brought the wine and food. It has to be said that the wine and food made by Julong Pavilion are very attractive just by their appearance. It can be said that they are full of color, flavor and fragrance, and they also have powerful spiritual power.
It's floating in it.
Jiang Wenyuan personally poured Chu Xiu a glass of fragrant, amber-colored wine, and said with a smile: "There were rumors in the wild mountains of Western Chu that some wild monkeys collected fruits in tree holes to store food for the winter, but
If there is no shortage of overwintering food in the season, the monkeys will forget the fruits they have stored, and then the fruits in this hole will gradually ferment, and then become a hundred fruit wine, so it is also called monkey wine.
Moreover, these wild monkeys did not know the treasures and actually picked some rare spiritual fruits as ordinary fruits. As a result, the monkey wine contained amazing medicinal power. Some warriors who went to wild places to collect medicine accidentally discovered this monkey wine.
There are many cases where you will find that your cultivation level has greatly increased after drinking alcohol."
Chu Xiu was surprised and said: "Is this the monkey wine that I found from Xi Chu?"
Jiang Wenyuan shook his head and said: "Monkey wine is something you can only meet but cannot ask for. The request is too coincidental. Besides, only a small part of the monkey wine contains medicinal power, but all the ingredients of my monkey wine are...
Brewed with precious elixirs and spiritual fruits, it is even more powerful than the authentic monkey wine. If you don’t believe me, little friend Chu, you can try it.”
Chu Xiu took a sip of the wine in the cup, and instantly he felt a heat seeping into his body from the wine. This cup of wine was actually more powerful than a fifth-level elixir.
"It is indeed a treasure. Your Majesty's Julong Pavilion is truly worthy of its reputation." Chu Xiu praised it.
Jiang Wenyuan smiled proudly, pointed to the dishes on the table and said: "Little friend Chu, let's try these dishes. There are not many dishes on the seventh floor, but each one is a treasure. I must personally agree before it can be served.
For example, this 'Phoenix Returning Nest' is made from snow-capped guinea fowls that have been fed with elixir for more than three months. The phoenix nest below is also made from the bird's nests of golden snow-swallows from the northern snow ridge.
Made of.”
Chu Xiu ordered, but he was not polite and tasted each one. Jiang Wenyuan really didn't brag about it. Indeed, everything was a top quality product.
After eating for a while, Jiang Wenyuan suddenly asked: "Little friend Chu is from the Qinglong Society, why did he end up joining the Guanzhong Punishment Hall?"
Chu Xiu said calmly: "A branch leader of the Qinglong Society wanted to use me as a spearman. Naturally, I would not be willing to be used by him, so I defected directly. I happened to meet 'Guanzhong Hero' Chu Yuansheng who was
He was being chased, so I rescued him easily, and then he was recommended by Master Chu to enter Guanzhong as an inspector."
Hearing what Chu Xiu said, Jiang Wenyuan's eyes suddenly lit up. If this was the case, it would be easier for him to recruit Chu Xiu.
Originally, he thought that it was Guan Siyu who saved Chu Xiu, or that he personally recruited Chu Xiu to enter the Guanzhong Punishment Hall. Unexpectedly, it was Chu Xiu who saved Chu Yuansheng, and then joined the Guanzhong Punishment Hall by accident. There was no kindness between the two parties.
exist.
Jiang Wenyuan played with the wine glass in his hand and suddenly asked: "Little friend Chu, you have been joining the Guanzhong Punishment Hall for some time. How do you feel about the Guanzhong Punishment Hall?"
Chu Xiu was a little confused as to why Jiang Wenyuan asked him this, but naturally Chu Xiu would not say that Guanzhong Punishment Hall was harmonious and stable on the surface, but internally there were many contradictions. He just said in a deep voice: "Guanzhong Punishment Hall is under the control of Hall Master Guanzhong."
Under the leadership of the Three Kingdoms, the land of Guanzhong has developed into such a prosperous place, which is of course a blessing for our generation of Guanzhong Xingtang warriors.
In other sects, disciples like me with a bad background and no background may be made things difficult and suppressed, but in the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, everything is done according to the rules of merit, and at least fairness can be maintained."
Jiang Wenyuan smiled and said: "What you said is true. Guan Siyu is not good at anything else, but he is selfless enough. He doesn't even care about his own disciples. However, I feel that your development in the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, little friend Chu, is not
What good thing?"
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?"
Jiang Wenyuan lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "Because the Guanzhong Punishment Hall is too fair, young warriors with outstanding talents like you do not have any preferential treatment. You must know that the younger the warrior is when he steps into the next realm, the
It means the greater your potential in the future. At your age, little friend Chu, you need a lot of resources to accumulate elixirs and practice. If you delay your efforts, you will be left behind by those young heroes on the Dragon and Tiger List.
Went later.
But even if you show great potential, the Guanzhong Punishment Hall will pay you a salary according to your position, and the amount is still pitifully low. You should have deep experience of this, little friend Chu."
Chu Xiu rubbed his head. They seemed to have vaguely guessed what Jiang Wenyuan meant, but Chu Xiu still made a puzzled expression and said: "Slandering the Guanzhong Punishment Hall in front of me, what do you mean, Your Majesty?"
Jiang Wenyuan snorted coldly and said: "I am not slandering you, I am just stating a fact.
I know Guan Siyu's character very well. No matter how outstanding you are in Guanzhong Punishment Hall, you won't get any preferential treatment. He treats his apprentices the same way, let alone you.
Moreover, the development of the Guanzhong land is limited, and it is caught between the Three Kingdoms. It is like walking on thin ice. When the Three Kingdoms have a truce, it is easy to say. If the Three Kingdoms continue to fight, how will the Guanzhong Punishment Hall deal with itself?
Little friend Chu, at such a young age, you can be ranked in the top twenty of the Dragon and Tiger Rankings without relying on your sect. This is enough to prove your potential. As the saying goes, a good bird chooses the wood to roost. You must also consider your own future. Don't
You wasted your potential."
Chu Xiu squinted his eyes. He didn't understand what Jiang Wenyuan meant until now. However, Chu Xiu didn't explain it. He just said in a deep voice: "What does the prince mean?"
Jiang Wenyuan waved his hand and said in a low voice: "People of the Ming Dynasty do not speak secretly. Little friend Chu, it is fate that you can represent the Guanzhong Punishment Hall to participate in the Divine Weapon Conference and meet me here.
Since you have come to Julong Pavilion, you should know something about me. I cherish talents the most, especially talents like you, little friend Chu.
Now I have disciples and worshipers under my command. If Chu Xiaoyou can join my king's command, then Chu Xiaoyou will be the third type of person. Although he is not a worshipper, he will have a higher salary than a worshipper, and he does not need to be like a worshipper.
The disciples need to fight and dispatch every day, I promise, Prince Anle’s Palace will do all it can to train you, Little Friend Chu, and what you can get, Little Friend Chu, will definitely be more than what you get in Guanzhong Torture Hall!"
Chu Xiu looked at Jiang Wenyuan with a slightly surprised look. He did not expect Jiang Wenyuan to be so direct in what he said, promising huge profits when they first met.
Moreover, Chu Xiu admitted that what Jiang Wenyuan said made sense. The position of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall was indeed a bit embarrassing. There were many risks both externally and internally. This was all due to the emergence of two outstanding figures, Chu Kuangge and Guan Siyu.
Only then did I achieve my current status.
Including the original plot, there were several huge shocks in the Guanzhong torture hall, but Chu Xiu didn't pay much attention to the details at the time, and now he can't remember them.
Jiang Wenyuan said that the Guanzhong Punishment Hall would not give Chu Xiu resources, preferential treatment, etc. This was a shortcoming for others, but it was exactly what Chu Xiu wanted.
Chu Xiu didn't need any preferential treatment at all. When Chu Xiu chose Guanzhong Punishment Hall, he went because Guanzhong Punishment Hall could maintain absolute neutrality regardless of his origins.
