Chapter 40 The East Factory Needs Talents Like You (Please Save and Read)
"Eunuch Zheng, I choose these two martial arts."
Li Xuan respectfully handed the secret books of "Die Lang's Seven Killing Swords" and "Tiangang's Seven Star Steps" to the old eunuch.
He knew that the old eunuch's surname was Zheng, but the specific information was unclear.
However, according to Eunuch Chen, it seems that Eunuch Zheng has been working in the arsenal for a long time.
The time can even be traced back hundreds of years.
A hundred years is considered an extremely long life for a warrior.
You know, even if you become a Martial Saint, your blood is majestic, and your body is completely reborn, you can only live to be two hundred years old at most.
Unless one is cultivating Taoism and reaches the realm of soul dissolution, one can be reincarnated and live a new life.
Of course, it is also accompanied by the mystery of the womb, and there is a certain risk of losing the memory of the past life.
Unless absolutely necessary, those Dharma cultivators will not easily dismember the body!
The Eunuch Zheng in front of him can live for more than a hundred years, and he can even sit and watch the rise and fall of a dynasty.
It's no wonder that the imperial court was so arrogant and asked him to guard the arsenal alone.
After hundreds of years of accumulation, its strength must have been unfathomable.
Even if he has not yet become a Martial Saint, he is not far away.
Eunuch Zheng glanced at these two martial arts secret books and said calmly:
"It's been a long time since we've seen anyone practice the "Dielang Seven Killing Swords". Although this sword technique is extremely powerful, it is extremely harmful to the body when practiced. You have not reached the innate realm and cannot use the inner air to nourish your body. , let alone gain momentum, we advise you, if you really want to practice, it’s not too late to practice after the Xiantian realm. Even if you use medicinal food to replace the internal energy and warm the body, it will inevitably leave sequelae. "
As both eunuchs, he didn't mind mentioning the little eunuch in front of him.
Li Xuan said respectfully: "Thank you Eunuch Zheng for reminding me. I just want to take a look and learn from each other's strengths. I don't necessarily want to practice. After all, I don't know when I will come to the arsenal next time."
He naturally knows some of the drawbacks of the "Die Lang Seven Killing Swords", but these drawbacks are nothing to him.
Eunuch Zheng didn't say anything more, and nodded slightly:
"Remember to return the secret book within two months. If it is lost or leaked, you will be held accountable. During this period, you'd better carry these two secret books with you."
Li Xuan's heart trembled, and he nodded: "Yes."
He knew that the consequences of loss and leakage were quite serious, and that abolishing cultivation was a minor matter, so naturally he did not dare to neglect anything.
Leave the arsenal.
Li Xuan hid the two secret books in his arms and walked straight towards Leng Gong.
However.
Just when Li Xuan walked to the door of Leng Gong Courtyard.
A man wearing brown clothes, a pointed hat, and a long knife at his waist walked slowly towards him.
"But Mr. Li Xuan Li?"
This man looked to be in his thirties, with a dark complexion, and he looked like he had been traveling around all year round.
He moves like a dragon and moves like a tiger, and his momentum is breathtaking. It is obvious that his martial arts cultivation is not low.
People from Dongchang... Li Xuan looked at the man's outfit and his eyes flashed slightly.
Apart from the Imperial Guards, the only people who can equip weapons in the palace are people from Dongchang!
Dongchang was considered to be outside the Daqian official system and only obeyed the emperor's orders.
Therefore, many court officials were as afraid of the Dongchang factory guards as fierce tigers.
Is it because the people from Dongchang came to look for me specifically because of the attack on the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival a few days ago?
"I am, father-in-law, what advice do you have?" Li Xuan said, cupping his fists.
The man showed his badge: "I am the factory guard of the East Factory. My name is Zhao Hao. I am temporarily serving as the head stall. I came here this time to ask you about the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival a few days ago."
"I don't know if Eunuch Zhao has anything to ask, I will tell you everything." Li Xuan said solemnly.
Zhao Hao smiled: "Eunuch Li, don't be nervous, it's just a routine inquiry. I have already greeted you, Manager Zhang."
"Eunuch Zhao, please come and sit in my courtyard. I just bought a box of good Biluochun recently, and I would like Eunuch Zhao to help me taste it." Li Xuan said.
"If Eunuch Li doesn't mind the trouble, I'd be very happy." Zhao Hao laughed.
Li Xuan stretched out his hand: "Please."
soon.
The two of them entered the Lenggong compound.
Lu Xuan led the way, bypassing palaces and corridors. Half an hour later, he finally arrived at the courtyard where he lived.
"The living place is relatively simple, so please don't mind, Eunuch Zhao."
Li Xuan took Zhao Hao into the house, then took out the Biluochun he bought from the night market and poured it into the teapot.
Zhao Hao smiled and said: "This cold and quiet palace is very suitable for living. I am a little envious of Eunuch Li. Unlike the factory guards like me, who are running around all day long, they have no fixed place to live."
"Eunuch Zhao is loyal to the emperor and takes care of his worries. He is the pillar of the country. I am very envious of him. It's a pity that my strength is low and I can only do errands in the cold palace." Li Xuan handed the brewed tea to Zhao Hao and secretly praised it. One sentence.
Zhao Hao said: "Eunuch Li is being humble. I heard that Eunuch Li was brave and invincible on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival, and he was very successful in rescuing the driver."
"I also got angry for a while. Looking back now, I'm still a little scared." Li Xuan coughed dryly.
Zhao Hao thought for a moment and then said, "Eunuch Li, can you briefly describe what you did at the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival?"
"Of course it's no problem."
Li Xuan thought for a while, and then told in detail what happened on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival.
Of course, he ignored the fact that he was almost possessed.
Zhao Hao listened on the sidelines, and then asked a few questions from time to time to learn the details.
Until half an hour later.
Li Xuan then said: "In the end, it was Lord Wei who came forward and eradicated the remnants of the Nether Fire Cult. This is roughly what happened. I hope I can help Eunuch Zhao."
After the conversation, he also knew that most of the East Factory guards were sent out to search for the whereabouts of Huojiu, the elder of the Nether Fire Cult, under the order of Wei Jingzhong.
Zhao Hao was responsible for internal review to see if there were any traitors in the palace and cooperate with Huojiu.
After all.
Now Daqian is not stable, and there are constant unrest in various places. There may be hidden players from various forces in the palace.
Zhao Hao said: "Thank you for your cooperation, Eunuch Li. This information is still very useful for our investigation."
Think about it.
He continued, "Eunuch Li, we see that you are also a brave man. You are young and your strength is quite good. It is a bit of a waste of talent to stay in this cold palace. Now our East Factory is expanding its staff and needs talents like you, Eunuch Li."
"I wonder if Eunuch Li is interested in working in my East Factory?"
"Ah?"
Li Xuan was stunned for a moment. He never expected that Zhao Hao would suddenly invite him.
Could it be that this person saw through his strength?
Impossible, even Chief Steward Lin did not see through his true strength, how could Zhao Hao see through it.
After thinking about it.
Li Xuan still declined tactfully: "Thank you for your kindness, Eunuch Zhao, but I have just been promoted to a manager. I don't want to disappoint Chief Steward Lin and Chief Steward Zhang's cultivation. In addition, I am not strong enough, so I am afraid I can't be competent for the position of the East Factory."
Although the salary of the East Factory is very high, ordinary factory workers have ten taels of silver a month, and there are various subsidies.
However, they need to go out from time to time, and even cooperate with the Demon Suppression Division to arrest evil demons.
The risk factor is very high.
Li Xuan would not be so stupid as to risk his life for such a small amount of money. He has now been promoted to the position of manager, and he can also make money by refining pills himself. With the help of the Kunpeng Breathing Method, it is not a problem for him to cultivate to the Xiantian realm.
Joining the East Factory is like picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons.
Zhao Hao was not too surprised by Li Xuan's refusal.
He smiled and said:
"Everyone has their own ambitions. Since Eunuch Li is unwilling to join the East Factory, our family will naturally not force him."
"However, our family does have something that we would like to ask Eunuch Li for help."
