Chapter 269: Zhuge Chongguang's Opportunity to Break Through the Realm of Heaven and Man

After Lu Chen arrived at the military factory, he called the two Mo brothers together, then showed them the drawings of steam engines and trains, and explained to them the working principles of these two things.

After listening to what Lu Chen said, the two brothers instantly felt that the door to a new world had opened.

As craftsmen, after hearing what Lu Chen said, they immediately realized the impact that steam engines and trains would have on the world, especially steam engines.

At this time, Lu Chen said: "Mo Fei, you still have to stay in the military factory and be responsible for the research and development of firearms, so I will leave the task of manufacturing steam engines and trains to your brother."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Mo Xing said excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust!"

Mo Xing was very interested in steam engines and trains. He wanted to see what changes these two things would bring to the world after they were released.

Moreover, Mo Xing firmly believed in his heart that these two things would definitely promote the development of this era. Lu Chen gave him the task of manufacturing steam engines and trains. As the person who manufactured these two things, he, Mo Xing, could also leave his name in history.

Lu Chen continued at this time: "By the way, steam engines and trains should be manufactured in Dayucheng. There are not enough craftsmen in Yancheng."

Although many refugees came to the Northland and the population of the Northland increased significantly, skilled craftsmen in the Northland were still very rare.

Most of the refugees are fine if they are allowed to farm, but if they are allowed to engage in industrial production, it will take a long time for them to be trained.

But Dayucheng is different. Almost every household in Dayucheng is a craftsman. If the manufacturing of steam engines and trains is placed in Dayucheng, it will be easier to recruit craftsmen.

Moreover, the reason why Lu Chen wants to manufacture steam engines and trains in Dayucheng is because he has another biggest purpose. After the train is built, he plans to build a railway directly connecting Dayucheng and Yancheng.

After all, Dayu City has a population of hundreds of thousands, and these populations are very important to Lu Chen's industrial development, so Lu Chen does not intend to let them stay in Dayu City forever.

When there is railway transportation connecting Dayucheng in the future, it will be easier for the people in Dayucheng to come to Yancheng and return to Dayucheng. In this way, the people in Dayucheng will not worry about leaving home. It's too far away and I have been staying in Dayucheng.

Mo Xing instantly heard what Lu Chen meant, and he immediately said: "Okay, Your Majesty, I will pack my things and return to Dayu City later."

Lu Chen said: "Don't be so anxious. I plan to inspect Dayu City in a few days. Then you will go back with my convoy."

After all, the people of Dayu City are also his subjects, the vassal king. The system has determined the ownership of Dayu City for so long. Lu Chen has never been to Dayu City once. Lu Chen feels that he has ignored Dayu City too much. The city exists.

Anyway, there is nothing going on in Beiguo now. Even if there is no him in Yancheng, there are still people to handle the government affairs. The officialdom in Beiguo has been running smoothly. If he leaves Yancheng for a while, nothing will happen.

Hearing what Lu Chen said, Mo Xing said excitedly: "The people of Dayu City will be very happy if they hear that you are going to Dayu City."

Lu Chen is the son of destiny, the human emperor that Dayu City has been waiting for for who knows how many years. If Lu Chen goes to Dayu City in person, the people in the whole city will definitely be excited.

Hearing Mo Xing's words, Lu Chen smiled, and then said: "Let's do this for today. I still have something to do, so I'll go back first. You should also seize the time to hand over the work in the military factory to others, and then go back Pack your things, I'll have someone pick you up in two days."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen did not stay too long in the arsenal. He immediately left the arsenal and returned to the Beiwang Mansion, where he had Zhuge Chongguang called to the study.

He was going to Dayucheng for a while, and he still had to explain what he had to explain to Zhuge Chongguang.

After finishing all the tasks for the Northern Kingdom, Lu Chen thought of what Emperor Xia was doing recently, and then said to Zhuge Chongguang: "Grand Master, I recently received news that my father is uniting with some The great master of power plans to take action against you."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Zhuge Chongguang smiled faintly, touched his gray beard, and then said, "I have already guessed that such a day would come."

"The last time a powerful Celestial Realm appeared in this world, many great masters died. Now that I am about to break through to the Celestial Realm, some people will naturally worry that what happened before will happen again."

Seeing that Zhuge Chongguang was not worried at all, Lu Chen asked directly: "I would like to know how long it will take for the Grand Master to break through to the realm of heaven and humanity?"

"The Jiangnan Rebellion is almost over. Next, my father will most likely start to deal with the Northern Kingdom. He has probably won over many great masters now. If you can't break through in a short time, I'm afraid there will be a disaster."

After hearing what Lu Chen said, Zhuge Chongguang replied: "It is not easy to break through to the Grand Master. Although I have clearly felt that I am about to break through, and I have also touched the threshold of the Heavenly Realm, I always feel Not even close to anything.”

"The Heavenly Realm has been separated from the scope of martial arts. You cannot break through to the Heavenly Realm simply by improving your strength. There must be a special rule in this world. Only by passing this rule, or in other words, is it recognized by the world. , only a great master can break through to the realm of heaven and man.”

"I suspect that the main reason why the powerful man in Xuanyue Palace massacred the great master of this world was to achieve a breakthrough."

"Everyone thinks that he is hunting grandmasters wantonly to show the power of the Heavenly Man Realm, but I think he has to kill so many grandmasters in order to break through to the Heavenly Man Realm."

After hearing what Zhuge Chongguang said, Lu Chen frowned.

So, Zhuge Chongguang is unlikely to break through to the Heavenly Man Realm in a short time?

This is troublesome. If Zhuge Chongguang cannot break through to the Heavenly Man Realm, he may not be a match for the siege of the grandmasters.

Although he is now a grandmaster of the highest level and can help Zhuge Chongguang, who knows how many grandmasters his father can invite.

If there are one or two grandmasters, he is not very worried, but if there are five or six, he and Zhuge Chongguang may not be able to resist.

Although the Northern Kingdom has entered the era of firearms, firearms can only play a suppressive role when dealing with grandmasters. To kill a grandmaster, firearms cannot play a decisive role.

At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly thought of something, and then he took out a Kaiyuan Pill from the system space and said to Zhuge Chongguang: "This is Kaiyuan Pill, a kind of immortal pill that can temper the meridians. You try to take it and see if it can help you break through the Tianren realm.

Hearing this, Zhuge Chongguang was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, Zhuge Chongguang immediately said: "Your Majesty, this pill is so precious, how can you give it to me?"

Although Zhuge Chongguang didn't know what Kaiyuan Pill was and had never heard of it before, when he heard Lu Chen say that this thing was an immortal pill, Zhuge Chongguang knew the importance of this thing.

As long as it is related to immortals, there is nothing that is not precious.

Lu Chen said lightly: "This king still has a lot here, the university scholar can take it. For the Northern Kingdom, the value of the Tianren realm is far greater than this immortal pill."

Seeing that Lu Chen said so, Zhuge Chongguang couldn't continue to refuse. He directly took the Kaiyuan Pill from Lu Chen's hand, and then said: "Then I would like to thank you, Your Majesty. "

After receiving the Kaiyuan Pill, Zhuge Chongguang put it into his mouth without saying anything.

After swallowing the Kaiyuan Pill, Zhuge Chongguang suddenly felt that the whole person became extremely relaxed. The next moment, countless bamboo slips seemed to appear in front of his eyes, and these bamboo slips flashed before his eyes.

In Lu Chen's view, Zhuge Chongguang's body actually emitted a faint golden light, which looked very mysterious. After a while, the golden light on Zhuge Chongguang's body gathered together, and then a golden light column that shot up into the sky extended from Zhuge Chongguang's body. , directly poked Lu Chen's study.

The strange phenomenon in the study instantly attracted all the people in Yancheng, and of course, also attracted the people in the palace.

When Lu Chen's wives and concubines saw the pillar of light rising into the sky in the study, they were all shocked. They thought something had happened to Lu Chen, and they hurried to the study.

Soon the courtyard outside the study was full of people.

At this time, Mu Zixuan also came to the outside of the study. She saw Chu Yuqin and the others were at the door and did not enter the study, so she asked: "Sister Chu, what happened inside?"

Chu Yuqin replied: "I don't know either. Xiaohuan said that the prince and the university scholar were discussing important matters in the study and asked us not to go in. "

Hearing this, Mu Zixuan felt very puzzled. What were Lu Chen and Zhuge Chongguang discussing in the study that caused this strange phenomenon?

At this time, dark clouds gathered in the sky of Yancheng, and the clouds became thicker and thicker, as if the sky was about to collapse. The golden light column shot out from the study was in the middle of the dark clouds, and then lightning and thunder flashed in the clouds.

The thunder sounded like a dragon crying in the dark clouds. The people of Yancheng saw the golden light column shot out from the Northern Palace, and there was such a strange phenomenon in the sky, and even The "dragon" was seen, and everyone thought that this was God's approval of the Northern King, so the people of the city knelt down in the direction of the Northern King's Palace.

At this time, Lu Chen was in the study and saw that the golden light column had not disappeared for a long time, and he was stunned.

This made a big noise.

Such a thick light column shot into the sky, I'm afraid that the people of the whole city have seen it, and this light column was shot from the Northern King's Palace. How can he explain this to the people?

Lu Chen sighed, forget it, let's take it one step at a time, first see if Zhuge Chongguang can I can't break through to the Heaven Realm first.

At this time, Zhuge Chongguang stood in place and closed his eyes, as if he had entered a state of meditation.

After an unknown period of time, countless golden bamboo slips appeared in front of Zhuge Chongguang. Originally, those golden bamboo slips only appeared in Zhuge Chongguang's mind, and only Zhuge Chongguang could see them. Now Lu Chen can also see them.

Seeing these golden bamboo slips, Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seems that this world is more magical than he imagined. He probably doesn't know even one percent of this world.

After these golden bamboo slips swirled around Zhuge Chongguang's body for a while, they instantly entered Zhuge Chongguang's body. Zhuge Chongguang suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes shot out two golden rays of light.

Zhuge Chongguang then took a deep breath, and then all the golden light entered Zhuge Chongguang's body. Gradually, the golden light beam shot out from his body slowly dissipated.

Zhuge Chongguang adjusted his breath, and Lu Chen quickly used the system to identify Zhuge Chongguang's state. [Name: Zhuge Chongguang]

[Identity: Dean of Huanyu Academy, Bachelor of Beiguo University. 】

[Strength: Grand Master to the Ultimate Realm]

[Loyalty: 100]

After seeing Zhuge Chongguang's personal information, Lu Chen was stunned.

Grandmaster reaches the ultimate realm?

Like yourself?

Shouldn't it be the realm of heaven and humanity?

Lu Chen immediately asked: "Grand Bachelor, how are you feeling?"

Hearing Lu Chen's question, Zhuge Chongguang sighed, and then said: "I am disappointed in the prince. I still have not been able to cross that threshold."

this……

Lu Chen was a little speechless. There was such a big movement just now. It was obviously not something that a grand master could create. He thought that Zhuge Chongguang would definitely break through to the realm of a grand master, but in the end, there was still no breakthrough?

Where does the problem occur?

Why can't we break through?

Is it true that as Zhuge Chongguang said, a great master must pass a certain special rule of this world to break through to the realm of heaven and man?

While Lu Chen was deep in thought, Zhuge Chongguang said: "Your Majesty, although I have not been able to break through to the realm of heaven and humans, I already know the opportunity that will allow me to break through to the realm of heaven and humans."

Lu Chen asked directly: "What is the opportunity?"

Zhuge Chongguang replied: "As long as there are more and more scholars and talented people in the North, and I absorb enough literary spirit, I will be able to break through to the realm of heaven and humanity."

"Just now, after I entered a state of trance, there was a voice from somewhere guiding me."

"This is not much different from my previous conjecture. To break through to the Heavenly Realm, everyone must pass a certain special rule and be recognized by this world. Now think about it, the Heavenly Realm in Xuanyue Palace back then The strong man has killed so many great masters, probably because he proves his way through killing, and he has to kill a certain number of great masters before he can break through to the realm of gods."

Lu Chen thought for a while and then said: "So that's the case. If that's the case, then I will ask the Ministry of Education to issue a document. Starting from next week, every child between the ages of six and sixteen must enter the academy. study."

Lu Chen originally planned to promote education for all. He had long ago asked the disciples of Xuanyue Palace to teach the people in the North to read and write. However, at that time, he only asked the disciples of Xuanyue Palace to teach the people to read and write, and he did not force the people to read and write. of children can read and write, so until now, many people still think that reading is not important.

Since the opportunity for Zhuge Chongguang's breakthrough to the realm of heaven and humanity was that there were more and more scholars and talented people in the Northern Kingdom, we should take this opportunity to quickly promote education for all.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Zhuge Chongguang said quickly: "My lord, I'm afraid this won't work. Nowadays, most people think that only when you are an official can you study. If you don't study as an official, it is a waste of time and money, and for most families, children It can be regarded as a labor force. If children are allowed to study in academies, ordinary people will definitely not be willing to do so. "

Lu Chen said calmly: "There are obstacles to the promotion of any political decree. If nothing is done because of the opposition of the people, the land ownership will not be recovered, and the North Country will not be able to develop at the speed it is today."

Seeing that Lu Chen's attitude was so resolute, Zhuge Chongguang didn't say anything more. Then Lu Chen continued: "Bei Wangfu will allocate a sum of money as scholarships every year. Students with both good character and academic performance can apply. Students who pass the application , all can receive scholarships from Beiwangfu.”

"And within fifty years, all students who are admitted to the higher academy founded by Beiwang Mansion will be assigned jobs directly after completing their studies."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Chongguang instantly understood what Lu Chen meant. Lu Chen planned to use various methods to encourage people to send their children to the academy.

At this time, Lu Chen sighed, and then continued: "To be honest, if we start taking action now, I don't know if it's too late."

Emperor Xia had been preparing to deal with Fang Ge Zhongguang for a long time. As a result, they had just started to implement universal education. It is very likely that their universal education had not been launched yet. Zhuge Chongguang had not yet broken through to the realm of heaven and human beings, and those great masters came to surround him. Kill Zhuge Chongguang.

Zhuge Chongguang said: "My lord, please rest assured. Although your Majesty has already been preparing to get rid of me, everyone in the world knows that I am a great master who is about to break through to the realm of heaven and man. The people of Yancheng have probably seen the vision just now." Here, once this matter gets out, it is very likely that some great masters will think that I have broken through to the realm of heaven and human beings, and will reject His Majesty."

After hearing what Zhuge Chongguang said, Lu Chen reacted instantly.

Yes, the commotion just now was so loud, it is very likely that the spies in Yancheng have already seen it. If this can be used to make people mistakenly think that Zhuge Chongguang has made a breakthrough, Emperor Xia will naturally not dare to act rashly.

Although they themselves know that Zhuge Chongguang has not broken through to the realm of heaven and man, people outside do not know, and there are very few people who have seen the realm of heaven and man. Who knows what the realm of heaven and man is like.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen smiled and said, "I understand what the great bachelor means."

"Then from today onwards, the Grand Master will be in the realm of heaven and humanity. From now on, the Grand Master should not show off his strength at will."

Zhuge Chongguang instantly guessed what Lu Chen wanted to do, and he immediately said: "Yes, Your Highness."

Lu Chen said with a smile: "Okay, let's do this for today. There was a lot of commotion just now. I guess there are already a lot of rumors outside. I have to find someone to refute the rumors."

Zhuge Chongguang immediately saluted and said, "I'm leaving."
