Originally, it was not easy to marry a princess as a second wife, but Liu He, the elder brother, introduced this matter to his younger sister. In addition, after Liu Yu's acting skills were impressed, he always supported Gongsun Xu's affairs, as if to say, "Although your father is dead, you can just consider your uncle as your father!"
In addition, Gongsun Xu has the support of Liu Bei, so if Liu Yuandong himself is willing, this matter will most likely succeed.
Because of the turbulent times, the princesses and governors of this generation have suffered a lot and are relatively gentle in temperament. Liu Yu's own character also affected his daughter, which led to Liu Yuandong not having much resistance when his own brother came to propose marriage. The result is the current situation, which is almost the same after half-hearted efforts.
In other words, there was a high possibility that Kurma would be packaged up as a dowry and become a member of the Gongsun family in the future. This made Kurma feel upset.
But Kurma was reluctant to give up just like that. After all, he had spent a lot of effort to get this good job from Chen Zhong. If he gave up now, Kurma might even look down on himself.
After Liu Yuandong arrived, the three teams adjusted themselves quickly. After all, they were all princesses and the difference between them was not big. Two of them had the bonus of being from the Liu royal family, but Sun Shangxiang also had the bonus of being a martial god, so the adjustment of the three teams was very smooth.
"Thank you, Sister Xiang." After Liu Yuandong formed his team, he bowed to Sun Shangxiang, and Sun Shangxiang just waved her hand. The reason why she and Liu Yuandong were not familiar with each other was that Liu Yuandong was always bowing to each other with great courtesy, which made Sun Shangxiang sometimes want to ask, "Don't you know that the more courtesy there is, the more unfamiliar they are with each other?"
"Should we train together?" Liu Yao saw that the two sisters were about to fall, so she quickly said, "If we train together, we can help each other when we enter the small world. Even if we have to earn a ranking, we can support each other in the early stages, right?"
"Indeed." Sun Shangxiang nodded, not realizing that Liu Yao had already seized a loophole in the Small World Grand Martial Arts Show - veterans with strong communication skills, even if they have a small team, can form a very large team in the early stages, and this team can definitely exceed six people.
The so-called registered team name and so on were intended to cover up this fact from the very beginning.
"Then let's train together. I can bring some secret medicine from home. I remember that my father and brother both had secret medicine given to them by others. Since it's training, this kind of thing should be indispensable." Liu Yuandong thought for a while and said, then looked at Kulma, "My guard has certain command ability. I can ask him to help with the training. How about it?"
Sun Shangxiang glanced at Kurma. In fact, when Kurma appeared before, Sun Shangxiang realized that the other party's strength was superior to hers, but there were some things she didn't want to get involved in.
"Okay, I will bring my eldest brother's team here later. We will conduct intensive training together and get to know each other better." Sun Shangxiang retracted her gaze and said slowly.
With the arrival of the Princess Team 2, the County Lady Team, and the major families, almost all the contestants of the Han Dynasty's martial arts performance have arrived. The rest are either unable to participate due to something, or are trying to complete their own enhancement at the last moment.
"Brother Nan, how has your training been going recently?" Zhang Yong said worriedly as he looked at Nan Xi who had returned exhausted. At the beginning, Zhang Yong still felt that his team would at least secure the third place and fight for the first place in the grand martial arts performance, but after meeting the Princess Guards, the Chu Palace Six-Man Team, and the Canghou Rice-Eating Team, Zhang Yong realized that something was not right.
Taking into account that Sun Er and Jiang Guang's teams are being strengthened under the leadership of their respective bosses, Zhang Yong has become somewhat worried about this large-scale martial arts performance. After all, no matter how strong he is, it will be a headache for him to face the above-mentioned teams.
Therefore, in recent days, Zhang Yong has been working hard to strengthen his teammates to ensure that they can maintain their absolute advantage when they enter the small world.
It’s just that Nan Xi disappeared since Zhang Yong started to strengthen his team. Nan Xi only came back after Zhang Yong had further deepened his oath to his teammates. Zhang Yong feels a little resentful.
"It's become a little stronger." Nan Xi said with a smile, raised his hand and punched forward. The momentum, mind and strength combined with each other made Zhang Yong feel a little pressure.
With the help of the note given by Chen Xi, Nanzhi successfully borrowed the files from the Imperial Censor of Lantai, and then found out how Li You dealt with the witch at that time.
Unlike in the past when Li You would behead people at will, after experiencing a shortage of population resources, Li You became more serious about beheading. In the past, the witch would have been hacked to death, but this time, after the money was demanded from her, she was transferred to a textile factory for forced labor not long after.
When Nanzhi went there, the witch had already learned quite good textile technology and had even turned to the light. She was planning to work in the textile factory after her two-year labor reform. After all, she had to become a witch just to make a living. Now working in a textile factory, with her skills she could get to the position of foreman, and it seemed that she could support herself!
Compared to being a fortune teller with no future just to make a living, being a foreman in a textile factory at least provides food and accommodation, and it is a serious job.
So when Nanzhi went there, the witch was weaving brocade.
Although it was a labor reform, this witch was just a widow in her early thirties. She was watched at first, but later it was discovered that the witch worked hard to learn brocade-related techniques, tried to innovate patterns, and was extremely efficient. The foreman of the textile factory did not treat her as a labor reform prisoner, and still paid her a salary, not much, but it was something.
After all, the world has just returned to peace from the turbulent times, and many people have criminal cases, so there is no discrimination against fortune-tellers. It's just some fraud, which is not a big deal. Have you seen the fierce old man in the parade ground? That guy has killed a lot of people in the past!
Therefore, the fortune teller was only panicked for a short period of time when she came here. Later, she found that compared to being a fortune teller, the textile factory here was more suitable for her. This seemed to be the right path!
To a certain extent, troubled times forced people to become ghosts. Chen Xi promoted primary industrialization, captured ghosts and put them into factories to work, thus transforming the ghosts back into ghosts.
Even if Nan Xi had gone two months later, this witch would have been released early due to her excellent performance during the labor reform and multiple sentence reductions, and then she would have gotten married...
That's right. When Nan Xi came, this witch who was in her early thirties already had a client. After all, she was a high-level worker who could weave brocade and develop her own patterns. For people of this era, the only case she had was that she had to commit fraud because she had no place to eat. Wasn't that a problem? It wasn't, so many married women introduced potential partners to the witch.
It doesn’t matter whether she is a widow or not. Widows are more popular these days. The main reason is that her brocade weaving skills can really support a small family.
When people have a goal to achieve, they will of course work hard and be full of energy. At least when Nan Xi came over, he found that the witch was much more energetic and in better complexion than when she had defrauded him. But when he thought about it carefully, it was true. To defraud a fully equipped strong man like him who could massacre a village, even if the witch was mentally prepared, it would probably be quite stressful.
Nanzhi did not disturb the fortune-teller at that time. Even if she was in a hurry, she did not care about the time, so she just chatted with the old man from the security department of the textile factory while waiting for the fortune-teller to finish weaving.
The brother in the Security Department is also an experienced person. At least the rumors spread by the gossipy female workers in the textile factory are basically true. The brother really gathered a group of people. However, even the brother who gathered a group of people was a little frightened when he saw Nanzhi. At his peak, he did not have the strength of Nanzhi, who was so damn powerful. What's more, he is almost sixty years old now and is completely retired.
However, due to the limitations of his duties, even if Nanzhi had the transfer order and documents, the other party accompanied Nanzhi all the way until he met the witch who was said to have defrauded Nanzhi.
Of course, the brother from the Security Department didn't know about this at the time, and he thought that the other party was Nanzhi's wife. After all, it is very normal for people to be separated in troubled times, and it is not easy to find them back if you have the chance. So when Nanzhi stood there watching the witch weaving brocade, the brother from the Security Department still thought that Nanzhi was the other party's husband.
Nanzhi walked over with big strides until the witch finished her work. The witch, who was drinking water, saw Nanzhi out of the corner of her eye and spat out a mouthful of water.
Although the scam was successful, when the witch was arrested, she didn't know that Nanzhi was actually a nobleman and a county lieutenant. She only found out this when she was sentenced. She really thought that Nanzhi was just an ordinary rich landlord. Who knew that he was an official, and a high-ranking one at that!
So when the witch saw the other person appear in front of her at this time, her face turned pale with fright.
"Captain, I already know that I was wrong. I have returned all the money I defrauded. Don't kill me!" The witch knelt down with her body very soft.
After all, she had learned a set of skills with great difficulty and her labor reform was about to be completed. As long as she finished her labor reform, with her current level, she could become a foreman in a textile factory in three months at most, with an income of 1,500 yuan a month and a lot of benefits, which was more than what most strong laborers earned. Even the mother-in-law next door had found a partner for her, an honest and down-to-earth local man. After the labor reform was completed, she would get married and start a family. Wouldn't that be a direct path to a bright future?
This is also the reason why Nanzhi saw that the fortune teller was in high spirits and looked much better than when she had deceived him. This is what it means to be a person who has a goal for the future.
However, for the witch, Nanzhi's arrival meant that everything in the future was ruined.
"Get up and talk." Nan Xi looked at the witch and said unhappily.
The witch stood up tremblingly, and then at Nan Xi's signal, she sat on the bench on the other side.
"You gave me the hunting ritual. I need the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth steps, and the final ceremony." Nan Xi went straight to the point. He didn't want to waste time.
"I learned that ritual from others. I haven't used it in the past two years and have forgotten most of it." The witch lowered her head and spoke in a low voice like a quail.
Who would want to take the evil path when they can take the right path, especially when life is better after taking the right path. Why go back to the old path? Even the fortune-teller herself doesn't like to be a fortune-teller.
"Where did you learn that?" Nanzhi was overjoyed when he heard that. He knew that this kind of thing was definitely not made up by the witch. It would be weird if it had this effect. After all, he had really become stronger. So when the witch said that she learned it from someone else, Nanzhi was even more certain of the authenticity of this thing.
The fortune teller was a little embarrassed and said that she learned it from someone, but in fact, the stone carvings were thrown away by tomb robbers. Then she looked at the broken stone carvings, guessed, and filled them in with her own imagination.
"I need subsequent rituals. Give me all of them, and then you can be released from prison. I have already explained this to Lan Tai." Nan Xi took out the dispatch documents, and the witch, who was semi-illiterate, could understand them to some extent.
"I can't lie to you anymore..." The witch lowered her head and shrank back. She didn't want to be trapped in this circle anymore. She just wanted to live a good life. But now the person she had cheated before came to find her, and she really had no good solution.
"Your ritual is effective for me. I may be able to reach the seventh level with this ritual, so think about it carefully." Nan Xi tried to comfort him as much as possible. He could also feel that the other party was wary, so he spoke again, "How about this, I will spend ten thousand dollars to buy this set of rituals from you, and no matter what problems arise later, they will be mine."
"The ritual is not perfect. In fact, part of the ritual I gave you was perfected by myself." The witch was not attracted by Wan Qian, but she realized that Nan Xi came for this. If she didn't give a result, the matter would never end.
"Please write down the part you have perfected." Nan Xi said seriously. In his opinion, only the complete set of rituals from this witch is a complete ritual. After all, he used this set before, so he will continue to use it. "If it is effective in the future, I will give you 5,000 yuan at the beginning of each year to ensure your old age and death."
After all, Nanzhi has a flexible moral bottom line. He has truly experienced troubled times, from a Hu person to a Han person, and from a Han person to a Hu person. He has rich experience. Naturally, when his mind is still clear, he has realized what the fortune teller really needs - a stable and ordinary life.
The witch was tempted, and even though she repeatedly said she was not sure whether it would be effective, she still wrote out the entire set of rituals and the necessary materials, as well as the ferocious beasts needed to construct the ritual, to Nanzhi.
Nanzhi collected the things and handed the dispatch document to the witch. From today on, the witch was released from prison. Then Nanzhi took out a note of exchange for ten thousand coins and handed it to the witch. Then he took the information and hurried to Zhongnan Mountain. He had no other intention. Even though he could buy some materials for constructing the ritual with money, the sacrifices and some special materials still needed to be obtained by Nanzhi himself.
Fortunately, the sixth ritual was not too difficult. Nanzhi spent half a month and, with the help of money, personal strength, and a little luck, managed to complete it.
After completing the ceremony and being covered in tiger blood, Nanzhi clearly felt that he had become stronger again. Although not much, maybe only 5% to 10%, this obvious improvement made Nanzhi feel happy from the bottom of his heart. He even wanted to put aside the matter of participating in the grand martial arts performance and continue to become stronger. After all, nothing makes a Liangzhou person feel more refreshed than becoming stronger!
Unfortunately, the seventh ritual requires the slaughter of two seven-meter-long dragons when the moon is at its highest point in the sky, and Nanzhi has to do it himself. Considering that Chinese dragons cannot grow that big, Nanzhi decides to go to the Ganges or Africa when he has time to kill some dragons to make up the number. As for now, since he has no way to become stronger, he can only return to Chang'an to participate in the grand martial arts performance.
"Brother Nan, your experiences during this period are indeed quite mysterious." Zhang Yong looked Nan Zhi up and down. They have also taken a lot of secret medicines and used some strange things recently, but the growth of their overall strength is not as obvious as Nan Zhi's. No wonder Nan Zhi is obsessed with the so-called feudal superstition. To be honest, if there is a feudal superstition that is so effective for him, Zhang Yong will also believe it.
"It's okay. After participating in the martial arts performance and buying things, I will go south to the Ganges River and kill two seven-meter-long super dragons there. I should become stronger by then." Nan Xi looked like he was obsessed with becoming stronger and had no time to care about anything else.
Zhang Yong was silent for a while after hearing this. He didn't know how to tell Nan Xi that the situation in the Ganges River had been very unstable recently, but the grand martial arts performance had covered it up.
"I'll give it a try for everyone first. Who knows, maybe I can come up with a universal one. By the way, what's going on with the martial arts performance?" Nan Xi, who was in a good mood, didn't notice Zhang Yong's expression and asked about the martial arts performance instead, "How was the fifth-level smelting preliminaries going?"
"What, there are still preliminaries?" Zhang Yong was shocked.
"What, you don't know there is a preliminaries?" Nan Xi was shocked!
"..." Zhang Yong stared at Nan Xi in amazement. No one told him what the preliminaries were.
"Oh, we don't need to participate in the preliminaries. People like us can go straight to the first and second rounds." Nan Xi suddenly remembered that they, the wise guys, didn't need to participate in the competition.
"But I remember Jiang Guang should participate in the preliminaries. He hasn't reached the sixth level yet." Nan Xi said with a nostalgic tone, "Why don't we go and take a look?"
"Is there such a thing? I really didn't know. Preliminary round?" Zhang Yong said with some surprise, "But now that you mention it, I do have some impression. Shouldn't a fifth-level player enter directly in the first round? A sixth-level player can also enter directly in the second round of the ring competition. There shouldn't be many fifth-level players participating in the preliminaries."
"Who knows? Let's go and take a look first." Nan Xi said indifferently.
"Yeah, there's not much room for improvement anyway, let's go and take a look." Zhang Yong said, touching his chin.
It was agreed to open on March 30th, so the Small World Grand Martial Arts Show will definitely open on March 30th, you guys!
