Chapter 176 Humanity and Sophistication
The discussion process was very simple, and the big bosses were speaking throughout the process.
Wu Chong mingled among the crowd and meditated with his eyes closed. In five days, he had accumulated another 500 experience points, but he did not plan to use these 500 for the time being. A full 10,000 experience points are needed to improve the level, which takes 100 days to save.
He didn't want to suppress his level indefinitely.
In the meantime, he still needs to think carefully about how to approach the realm of foundation building. If the rear path of this stupid panel is not designed well, it will definitely get stuck at the 'upgrade' step. Wu Chong had a similar experience before.
In such a calm atmosphere, the first state capital report ended.
No one noticed him, no one asked him anything.
Even Ji Tianxiong, the Taoist official from Daozhou, didn't even look at him. This kind of scene where no one jumped out to blame themselves or look for trouble made Wu Chong a little uncomfortable, but he soon felt relieved. We are all officials. Your rank is not as high as mine, and your background is not as deep as mine. Why focus all the attention on a little-known person like you?
I really thought I had a troublesome constitution, and there were people looking for trouble wherever I went.
The status of the mission in Chongzhou Prefecture was informed by Wu Chong's former boss, the gold medal chief catcher Li Qiuren. No one asked about the rest of the matter, and Wu Chong was happy to be quiet and acted as the backdrop.
It can be seen from the disputes between these big figures that Daozhou is not monolithic.
There are still factional fights internally. Taoist official Ji Tianxiong is the strongest one on the surface, but the people below will not give up their own interests just because he is a powerful Taoist official. Everyone has their own demands. So what if you, Ji Tianxiong, are stronger? As long as you are still playing within the rules, you must abide by this set of logic.
In order to receive the princess's wonderful job, the few people in the middle were so excited that they almost lost their minds.
I don’t know who won in the end.
Wu Chong didn't listen and didn't bother to care.
By the time he finished practicing for a week, the argument was over.
Ji Tianxiong and several important figures left one after another, and Wu Chong returned to the inn among the crowd.
"Master Wu, why don't you go out and sit for a while?"
Back at the post house, Huang Tianci, the chief officer in yellow with a kind smile on his face, greeted Wu Chong.
Although they are not very familiar with each other, they are from the same place, and there is no hatred between them, so it is normal to keep in touch.
"I don't have many acquaintances in the state capital, so I won't join in the fun."
Wu rushed to the invitation from Huang Tianci, the chief officer in yellow. He had no interest in this kind of human relationship situation.
If you have this skill, you might as well study how to build your own foundation.
"Is this your first time as an official, Mr. Wu?"
Huang Tianci said with a smile when he heard this.
Compared with those old officials, Wu Chong seemed a little out of place. Huang Tianci also mentioned it out of good intentions, but to his surprise, the young man still didn't understand.
"Being an official is different from being a headhunter. It's hard to come to the state capital. Naturally, you need to walk around with Shangguan more. Only if you become proficient enough can you have a chance."
"Thank you, Mr. Huang, for the tip."
Although Wu Chong didn't plan to go, he was still happy to deal with such a well-intentioned person.
"There is no future in practicing martial arts. Everyone's qualifications are determined by fate. We can only practice to the first level of the third realm at most. It's useless to work harder! Instead of wasting time on training, it's better to move around more. Only by being promoted can our descendants have a future."
Seeing that Wu Chong was not making progress, Huang Tianci shook his head and sighed before leaving.
He's not a relative or an acquaintance, so it's a sign of his kindness to give you a few words.
There is no need to say more.
Wu Chong, who refused the entertainment, returned to the house.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, sensing Huang Tianci and the other four empty rooms leaving, he also roughly understood the main schedule of these gold medal-level experts coming to the state capital.
Reporting work is only one aspect, the more important thing is human relations.
Walk more.
They all eat, drink, and have sex.
There is no guarantee that one day you will be of use to someone else. When the time comes, it will be easier for an acquaintance to speak than a stranger. When you ask for help, your success rate will be much higher.
But this path wasn't for him.
Is there no future in cultivation?
Huang Tianci's words represent the views of most people in this world.
Martial Arts is something that requires too much talent and resources.
Talent is innate, but resources require financial and material resources to support. Lack of one of these two may lead to the failure of martial arts. Not to mention Daqi's control over high-end skills and top-level resources. Especially the top powerhouses in the center of the imperial city, each one represents a force. For them to be able to go up, power and power are indispensable.
In comparison, people like Wu Chong who practice with their heads down are the stupidest.
This is a judgment made from the perspective of ordinary people in this world. But Wu Chong
There is a panel on the body.
What is a dead end for others is a road to heaven for him.
As long as he keeps practicing, one day he will be able to overthrow an empire by himself.
Become an Immortal Buddha alone!
A night of silence.
After a quiet day, 100 experience points were 'checked in' on the experience panel again, and now the experience storage has become 600 points. The most important thing is that he refined the pollution aura on the dice in his hand.
Pollution power!
After becoming the capital commander, Wu Chong naturally took away the 'dice' from the crime scene last night for personal gain.
The purpose is to refine the power above and leverage the demonic power system in his body.
After working hard all night, I actually did it.
A trace of demon power appeared in his body. Although dormant, it has become active again. Along with this, his true energy strength also increased a lot.
Wu Chong's true essence is originally a high-level energy that combines three kinds of power into one.
A part was missing before, but now it has been replenished, and the properties of the true essence have also been improved. The most obvious thing is that the number of flying swords controlled by Wu Chong's 'Sword Control Technique' has increased again, reaching 27!
This change undoubtedly told Wu Chong that his choice was right.
The speed at which you can see it getting stronger is addictive.
As daybreak approached, there was a burst of noise from below, including the voices of waiters being greeted and sent to, and the driver's voice calling out for caution.
Wu Chong walked to the window and took a look down.
It turned out that four colleagues who went out for a 'walk' last night were back.
"Master Chen is really interesting. With his words, my transfer order next year will be basically stable."
"Master Li is not bad either. He asked me to do some small things and gave him 30,000 taels of silver. Such an interesting friend must be deeply friends!"
Several people were drinking and talking about what happened at the banquet that night.
"It's a pity that Wu Dutong didn't come. I still have several connections here, and I want them to nod in black."
"A low-class person with a mud-legged background has no sense of the overall situation. Such people are destined not to go far."
Li Chouren, the drunken gold medal chief catcher, said with a loud tongue.
"I think he, the black-clad commander, is just a temporary replacement! When the environment stabilizes, he will be replaced sooner or later."
"That's right! That's right! Idiots who don't know how to run when they come to the state capital are really stupid."
"Fortunately, I reminded him, but I didn't expect him to be so ignorant."
The drunken people staggered back to the house.
