Chapter 139 Dao Jiu



To Shen Qian's surprise, the second layer only contained a strangely made semi-transparent metal card.

There is a large "兑" character on top.

Shen Qian picked up the instruction manual next to him and looked at it, then suddenly realized.

This is a voucher that allows Shenqian to redeem an item priced under five million at any government-run psionic chain store nationwide.

Although the price is five million, it doesn't mean that the Ministry of Education's cost in giving out this voucher is also five million, but it is still a truly generous gift.

This is considered in preparation for entering university in Japan.

If we convert it this way, it's equivalent to the Ministry of Education giving ten million yuan to Shenqian.

Then, Shen Qian turned his gaze to the last box.

This is a box given to us by the martial arts club. It's made of an unknown black and gold metal.

Upon opening the box, it was found to be divided into two layers, one above the other.

The items on the top layer looked familiar; they were ten simple, ancient-looking cyan tokens.

At the very center of the token is the character "武" (Wu), edged in gold.

...A martial arts training order?

Shen Qian was both amused and exasperated.

He never expected that the martial arts department would send him another martial arts demonstration order.

And each time it's given away, it's for ten yuan.

This is equivalent to having sixteen martial arts training tokens before the sinking.

The Marquis of Jingcheng only has a quota of ten of these items per year, while Shen Qian has become a major user of the "Martial Arts Token".

Unfortunately, all we know so far is that the Martial Arts Token is the ticket to the Myriad Pagoda, but we're still completely clueless about what the Myriad Pagoda is.

We can only hope that this token is indeed as useful as our third and sixth senior brothers said.

Then, Shen Qian opened the second layer of the black gold box, but instead of the bank card he expected, he found another voucher...

Yes, it's the exact same voucher as the one issued by the Ministry of Education.

Wait... guys, don't you guys discuss whether your gifts will clash with others before you give them?

Chen Qian was speechless with frustration. He picked up the voucher and looked at it, which eased his depression a little, because the Martial Arts Club's voucher could be redeemed for goods worth less than ten million.

Barely... it's not really an overlap.

After carefully putting away all the gifts, Chen Qian made a final calculation, concluding that his personal wealth, including the paper money, should be approaching 30 million.

We've already accomplished one-third of our small goals.

Shen Qian lay down on the bed, completely satisfied.

Actually, he had another great gain today.

That's starlight penetrating the body!

According to the kings and nobles, that star was the Wuqu Star recorded in ancient Chinese books.

If Shen Qian were to look inward at this moment, he would find a tiny star hovering in his mind. Of course, Shen Qian's current mental strength is not yet capable of introspection, which is what the kings and nobles told him.

When the starlight of Wuqu permeates the body, it forms an extremely small domain, and the miniature stars in the mind are the core of this domain.

As for the use of this domain, according to the kings and nobles, it can accelerate cultivation. As for its specific effects, we will know when we absorb spiritual energy before sinking.

Exhausted, Shen Qian had no intention of cultivating for the time being. He closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep when fireworks suddenly exploded outside the window.

Shen Qian sat up and pulled back the curtains, only to see that the night sky over Jingcheng had turned into a sea of ​​fireworks in just one minute.

All sorts of dazzling fireworks bloomed in the sky, making it even more lively than the Chinese New Year.

The people of Jingcheng seemed to be celebrating this special day in this way.

In a daze, I heard many people shouting my name before I sank in.

...

The next morning, Shen Qian got up very early.

The news about Shen Qian was still playing on TV. Shen Qian, who was getting tired of it, turned off the TV and quietly ate his breakfast until there was a knock on the bedroom door.

"Third Senior Brother!"

Shen Qian opened the door, and Shi Dingyan stood outside with a strange expression.

"Someone claiming to be your guard has found the Tower of Babel. Would you like to meet him?"

Shi Dingyan spoke up.

"Guards?"

Shen Qian was initially confused, but then something occurred to him. Could it be that guard from the Hundred Kings Hall?

I've been so busy these past few days that I almost forgot about it.

If he remembered correctly, Wan Ning had said that he would see this guard when he returned to Jingcheng. It's been almost a week, so why is he only coming now?

With this question in mind, Shen Qian met the other party in the reception room on the first floor of the Tower of Babel.

Upon meeting, Shen Qian immediately understood why Shi Dingyan and even the academy disciple Qian Weiyun, who was leading the way, both had strange expressions.

...Is this some kind of guardian of mountains and seas?

If Shi Dingyan hadn't quietly affirmed his level of cultivation, Shen Qian would have definitely turned around and left.

The man in front of me was dressed in rags, with long hair covering half of his face, and the hair was matted and tangled, making him look exactly like a homeless person.

Even beggars are cleaner than him.

The man seemed to realize that his appearance was not good, and lowered his head slightly, a little red appearing on his dark face.

Shi Dingyan did not inquire about Shen Qian's secrets. After indicating that he was right at the door, he and Qian Weiyun left the reception room.

"Dao Jiu greets Mr. Shen."

At this moment, the "beggar" seemed to recognize Shen Qian, who was the only one left behind, and stood up to give a slightly respectful bow.

"What's your name?" Shen Qian was taken aback.

"Dao Jiu, Dao as in Dao, Jiu as in Jiu," Dao Jiu explained very seriously.

Why do these ducks from the mountains and seas seem a bit dim-witted?

Shen Qian muttered a complaint, but considering the unpleasant smell on the other person, he still took him back to the 99th floor and let him take a shower in the guest room and change into clean clothes.
