The Urban Successor of God of Gluttony Chapter 3288:
Wenhua Academy has not many students, but it occupies a lot of space, which is comparable to the Duke's Palace.
There were still guards at the door. Those who were not students or did not have a pass from the academy were not allowed to enter. At this time, the two guards at the door were watching Gu Zheng and Hou Ping warily.
The two men were wearing fancy clothes and carrying weapons. Although the weapons were wrapped in cloth, a discerning eye could tell that one was a gun and the other was a knife, and the knife was still on his back.
"Please tell me, I'm looking for Dean Bai Yi!"
The guard at the door stood upright, with a military posture at first glance. Seeing this ancient struggle, he probably felt a little weird. This fellow who traveled through time might have also traveled through modern times.
The guard was still vigilant and asked Gu Zheng directly: "Look for the dean, have you made an appointment?"
"Reservation?"
Gu Zheng laughed and continued: "You tell him how much sorrow you can have, and he will understand!"
How much sorrow can you have?
This poem was read by Gu Zheng when he was in Jin Mansion. He didn't know if Bai Yi had plagiarized it, but he could tell from the expressions of everyone that day that Bai Yi had not used this poem yet.
Since it has never been used before, it is the best password.
The guard looked at him suspiciously, but one person still ran into the academy. It seemed that he was going to report. The poem "Asking How Sad You Can Be" has actually spread to Kyoto Prefecture and has been praised by many people. Some People also say that there is finally a person in the Qinglong Empire who can compare with the poet Bai Yi.
Yes, Bai Yi has the title of Poet Saint in the Qinglong Empire.
However, not many people agree with this statement. Although this is a masterpiece that may be remembered for generations, Bai Yi has too many masterpieces that can be remembered for generations. Not to mention others, just the song "When Will the Bright Moon Come?" It is simply an eternal masterpiece, unparalleled.
After all, Bai Yi has been famous here for many years. Gu Zheng, who is Gu Zheng? No one knows at all. ..
"You two, the dean invites you!"
The guard who ran to report came back soon, and Bai Yi agreed to see him. This was not surprising to Gu Zheng. If he knew that a time traveler came here to look for him, Gu Zheng would also go to see him.
"At noon on the day of hoeing, sweat drips from the soil..."
Gu Zheng walked past a house where students were reciting poems. This familiar verse almost made Gu Zheng laugh out loud. Gu Zheng paid attention. There were more than a dozen students in this classroom, all of whom were very old. Small, it seems that this academy also educates students according to their age.
Behind the academy, in a luxurious hall, Gu Zheng met Bai Yi.
Yes, it is a main hall. In fact, Wenhua Academy was transformed from a public palace. This main hall is the main hall of the public palace and is now Bai Yi's office and conference room.
"Did you write Wenjun's sorrow?"
When they met, Bai Yi said nothing and asked directly.
Gu Zheng looked at Bai Yi. He was a young man in his twenties. He was good-looking and had a good temperament. He fit the image of some time-travel protagonists. Bai Yi was sitting at the desk, and there were also things on the table. On the rice paper, it seemed like he had written something.
In addition to Bai Yi, there are three people sitting at the small desk next to him, all of whom are Bai Yi's secretaries.
"When is the National Day?"
Gu Zheng's answer was unreasonable and rude. After asking, he found a seat and sat down. Hou Ping stood behind Gu Zheng and did not sit down.
A glint flashed in Bai Yi's eyes: "Eleventh!"
That's right, this Bai Yi is about the same age as he was on earth, and the difference is probably not too long.
"Who is the president of the United States?" Bai Yi suddenly asked.
Gu Zheng smiled: "When I left, it seemed like it was Trump!"
"I was Obama at that time!" Bai Yi seemed a little bit sad. He knew before when he asked Jun how sad he was that a fellow countryman had traveled through time. Now he is absolutely sure that it is not just a fellow countryman, but almost the same. People of the same era.
"How long have you been here?" Bai Yi asked again.
The three secretaries next to him all looked confused. They didn’t understand what they were talking about at all. They couldn’t understand at all, what kind of president, what kind of horse, what kind of horse, could it be a new breed
A horse, or some kind of monster?
"How long? It's hard to say!"
Gu Zheng seems to have fallen into memories? How long has it been? It has been a really long time since he ascended to the Great Desolate World, even if he left the earth.
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it. Today I invite you to try my cooking skills!"
Bai Yi did not ask further questions. In fact, he was very excited and happy at this moment. He came earlier than Gu Zheng. He traveled through time after being aborted for twenty-three years.
He was born into a good family. Although there was no title in his family, his father was a minister in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and now he has also reached the position of minister. On earth, that is the level of deputy minister.
Here, he is a proper second generation.
In addition, he is smart, has the memory of the earth, can write poems, and is talented. He is also a Jingwu double ball. Now the martial artist has reached the intermediate level, and the mentalist is practicing the intermediate and low-level skills. His heart is very The big, medium and low levels are just transitional. He will eventually have to practice high-level spiritual skills.
In fact, he was very satisfied with this kind of life, but in the dead of night, he couldn't help but think of the blue planet.
"Your cooking skills?"
Gu Zheng looked a little weird. Are you talking about cooking skills in front of him? This is not the same as showing off a sword in front of Guan Gong. It's hard to say anything else, but when it comes to cooking, Gu Zheng believes that few people can surpass him.
"Yes, you will definitely like it!"
Bai Yi strode to one side. There was the kitchen over there. Gu Zheng followed him. The decoration of this kitchen was actually very Western-style, like a Western-style restaurant. Bai Yi could use everything that was not available in this world. Something else took its place.
"It's a pity that I am a liberal arts student. If I were a science major, I might be able to make lime and glass. What about you? What did you study?"
Bai Yi entered the kitchen and started working. While he was busy, he was talking to Gu Zheng.
For a liberal arts student, no wonder he only sells poetry, and the glass can only be replaced by crystal. It turns out that this person doesn’t know how to do it at all.
But having said that, no one can make glass, lime, muskets, etc. when they travel through time. If you don’t understand, even if you know what glass is, you can’t make it unless you carry Baidu with you.
Don't talk about him, Gu Zheng doesn't know how.
He can conjure it, but he can't create it.
After a while, Gu Zheng looked even weirder. What Bai Yi cooked turned out to be Western food. He carefully placed a few steaks on the frying pan, but the way he put them was wrong, which made Gu Zheng shake his head. .
Besides that the steak was wrong, his condiments were not good either. After watching Gu Zheng for a while, I couldn’t stand it any longer, so I pushed him aside and started doing it myself.
In just a moment, the rich fragrance made Bai Yi couldn't help sniffing.
"Brother Gu, I really didn't expect that your cooking skills are so good. Could it be that you are actually a chef with three stars?"
After taking just one bite of the cooked steak, Bai Yi couldn't help but give it a thumbs up to praise it. The three stars referred to three Michelin stars, and Gu Zheng was a little surprised.
He used to be much better than a Michelin three-star chef. He was thinking of his father. Maybe he would go back and see his father if he had the opportunity in the future.
"Yes, I used to be a cook!"
Gu Zheng smiled and nodded. There was nothing the chef couldn't admit. He had indeed been a chef, but he was the boss's chef.
"Brother Gu, you must stay with me for a while and let me have a full meal!"
Bai Yi laughed loudly, and it could be seen that he was very happy, but the three secretaries who kept swallowing their saliva were unlucky. Usually Bai Yi would call them when making something to eat, but today he didn't call, and after a while , Bai Yi and Gu Zheng ate more than a dozen pieces of steak.
"Brother Gu, I heard that you also practice both Jingwu and Jingwu, and you practice very quickly. Is it possible that you are the protagonist of this world? Otherwise, why would I practice so slowly?"
I'm not full, but there's no need to continue eating. The drink Bai Yi took out was Yuanqi Liquid. This stuff is very filling. Even if it's Gu Zheng, you'll be full after just a few drinks.
This can save food and waste time, but the taste is, how should I put it, not bad, but not much better, similar to sugar water.
If Gu was asked to compete for the election, he would rather waste time eating more than drinking this stuff.
"There is no protagonist, only a supporting role. If you succeed, you are the protagonist. If you fail, then you are not!"
Gu Zheng shook his head with a smile. Bai Yi was stunned for a moment, clapped his hands and laughed: "Brother Gu is right. When you meet an old friend in a foreign country, come, let me toast you!"
What Bai Yi got this time was wine. The wine was pretty good, better than that guy Jin Yu's, but for Gu Zheng, it could only be like that.
Bai Yi still doesn't know how to make wine and is too lazy to do it.
"Where will Brother Gu plan to develop in the future?" Bai Yi asked softly after he had finished his meal.
"I'm different from you. I'm going to take a good look at this world. I'm not limited to any one place. I'll take a look at the Azure Dragon Empire. Then I'll go to the other three empires, and then the Stardust Sea and the Southern Wasteland. , Beiyuan, go and take a look!"
The Stardust Sea that Gu Zheng mentioned is on the easternmost side of the world. It is an endless sea. Nanhuang is further south of the Xuanwu Empire, and Beiyuan is at the northernmost part of the Suzaku Empire.
The four great empires are the Qinglong, Suzaku, Xuanwu, and White Tiger kingdoms. Qinglong is located on the east side, and the Stardust Sea is to the east of it.
As for the far west, there is a vast desert. I have no interest in the ancient desert war, so I didn’t mention it.
"Brother Gu is so elegant. Can I ask, how strong is Brother Gu now?" Bai Yi nodded, not surprised by Gu Zheng's thoughts. If he hadn't traveled here since childhood, maybe he would be like Gu Zheng. In this way, take a good look at the world.
Gu Zheng said nothing, his body was shining with purple light, more than a hundred acupuncture points lit up at the same time, all glowing purple, he was a high-level and intermediate warrior.
Soon, fifty purple souls appeared on the top of Gu Zheng's head. Bai Yi was suddenly moved, while the three secretaries and Hou Ping opened their mouths, all of them were frightened.
It's okay for advanced and intermediate warriors. Hou Ping knew that Gu Zheng was powerful before and knew that he practiced both Jing and Wu, but he never expected that Gu Zheng turned out to be a high-level and top spiritual master.
Fifty souls, all with purple light. Such a spiritual master can instantly kill warriors of the same level. Fifty souls have more than a hundred characteristics. No matter how powerful they are, it is useless. These piles of characteristics can kill one of them. Musha.
Before, Hou Ping thought that Gu Zheng redeemed his life by asking him to be a bodyguard, but now he saw that he was not qualified to be a bodyguard at all.
A high-level spiritual master who is also a high-level intermediate martial artist. Unless the legendary Heavenly Level appears, no one can be his opponent for such dual cultivation of Jingwu.
"Brother Gu, it's really, really surprising!"
Bai Yi was also stunned. He has lived in this world longer and understands better what Gu Zheng's strength means. No wonder the Bai family sent someone to send him a message. If he saw Gu Zheng , we must find a way to keep him.
Unfortunately, Bai Yi knew very well that he could not leave Gu Zheng behind.
Gu Zheng left, taking Hou Ping with him. He did not stay in the academy, but in an inn in Kyoto City, the capital of the Qinglong Empire. Gu Zheng did not plan to leave so soon. He wanted to have a good look here.
Kingto Prefecture is bigger than Dabai Prefecture, Daan Prefecture, and Daqing Prefecture. I am afraid that the three prefectures taken together cannot compare to Kyoto Prefecture.
According to statistics, Kyoto Prefecture has a population of three million. Three million is definitely a huge number in this world.
If calculated based on the scale of the earth's cities, three million is not much. Some prefecture-level cities can reach it. Many provincial capital cities exceed this number. Those megacities often have tens of millions. More than two thousand There are many thousands.
But the cities on Earth are full of high-rise buildings and have a strong three-dimensional effect. Even here in Kyoto Prefecture, the tallest building is only a dozen floors, and it is also a tower. The highest building used by people is only five floors.
In fact, most of the buildings are one-story, especially the palaces of the princes, which are all one-story. Only the shops facing the street have two or three floors. Calculated in this way, Kyoto Prefecture is not as big as it is. Second to the largest cities on Earth.
A large population also means in one word, lively.
There are various temple fairs, markets, commercial districts, etc., everywhere. The markets in other prefectures usually have six to nine, but the markets in Kyoto Prefecture have a total of forty-five
, the size of each market is larger than that of other prefectures.
This is the real center, the real big city.
Gu Zheng likes to visit the market here very much. It feels like traveling through ancient time and space. Especially now, it feels more relaxed to be alone in another world.
The little mare and the other two horses stayed at the inn. Hou Ping followed Gu Zheng with his knife on his back and Gu Zheng's spear.
Swords and guns are not allowed in the outer city of Kyoto Prefecture, but they are prohibited in the inner city. You are never allowed to bring weapons into the inner city. Those who live in the inner city are the real nobles.
"Objectively, do you want to burn incense? The incense here is the best and the most effective!"
Next to a temple fair, a discerning vendor shouted at Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng looked at the City God Temple and shook his head with a smile.
I don’t know if there is a palace in the underworld in this world. If there is, the city gods can’t bear the incense he puts on it, so they don’t want to cause trouble.
There are a lot of small things around the City God's Temple. Gu Zheng was surprised to find that there were some good things here that were sold as ordinary things.
For example, he saw a three-yellow stone and was mistaken for an ordinary topaz.
The value of topaz is not low, but it is far behind that of three yellow stones. Ordinary topaz can cost at most ten vitality cards per pound, but three yellow stones can cost at least a thousand vitality cards per pound. The difference is hundreds of times.
Topaz is an ordinary accessory, and three-yellow stone can be used to create a space bracelet specially designed for spiritual masters to practice. With the space bracelet, you don't need to carry so many things with you, and can put all your items into the three-yellow stone.
Generally speaking, ten kilograms of three yellow stones can create one cubic meter of space. Ten kilograms of three yellow stones, worth tens of thousands of Yuan Qi cards, are only one cubic meter. Most real space bracelets start with ten cubic meters. A space that is too small will be unstable and prone to problems.
It can be said that a space bracelet starts with a hundred thousand vitality cards before the raw materials. No wonder Gu Zheng has never seen a single bracelet when he came to this world.
Jin Yu didn’t, Jin Kai didn’t, and Bai Yi didn’t either.
On the contrary, the master of Dabai Mansion has one. Unfortunately, Gu Zheng has never seen him, so naturally he has never had such a space bracelet.
Gu Zheng bought a three-yellow stone at a small stall, which weighed about two kilograms. Although it was small, no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still a piece of meat. Gu Zheng should consider buying or building a space bracelet. It's not convenient to carry so many things.
He used to have a magic weapon for storage, but now that he doesn’t have it, he’s really not used to it.
The matter of space bracelets will be put on the agenda.
When visiting the temple fair, Gu Zheng bought a lot of things, all of which were in Hou Ping's hands. There were some small items that he had picked up, and some that he simply liked.
The other most important thing is all kinds of food and raw materials. Before, he didn’t have much money to buy. Now that he has money, he has a foundation. This time he will buy a big purchase. When he has a space bracelet in the future, he will Buy more, so that you no longer have to worry about not having enough ingredients to eat more delicious food on the road.
"Bai Yi, do you think Gu Zheng is trustworthy?"
Gu Zheng didn't know that after he returned to the inn, someone was talking about him in the palace, and they were all important figures from the enemy country.
The emperor Qingdi, the prime minister Zhou Tianyuan, the general marshal Bai Zifeng, Wang Zhengyi, the Marquis of Taiping, the master of the military aircraft pavilion, etc., plus the emperor, Bai Yi, there are exactly ten civil and military ministers.
"Your Majesty, I can vouch for him, he is not a member of the enemy country!"
Bai Yi is at the bottom, cupping his fists and saluting. The Dabai Mansion is investigating the ancient disputes. In fact, the capital is also investigating. A person who practices quickly and has both fine and martial arts will be taken seriously everywhere.
What Bai Yi brought back shocked the entire empire.
Gu Zheng has actually cultivated Xiaoyao Jue and become a high-level spiritual master. Coupled with his status as a high-level and intermediate warrior, this kind of strength has made even the king take care of it.
"Are you so sure~IndoMTL.com~ As far as I know, you have only met him once?"
Qing Di looked at Bai Yi and asked slowly. Qing Di had a very good impression of Bai Yi. It could even be said that he had watched him grow up and had deep trust in Bai Yi.
Everyone in the empire knows that although Bai Yi only holds the position of dean of the academy
, there is no official position, but in the empire, Bai Yi is one of the people who must not be provoked, and his ranking is still higher than some princes.
"Your Majesty, one side is enough!"
Bai Yi smiled and nodded, how did Gu Zheng come about? Maybe he was wearing it and came directly to this world, otherwise how could there be no trace at all, and hadn't it been found out before that someone had given Gu Zheng Kung Fu? Maybe he is a genius and can practice extremely quickly.
This kind of thing rarely happens to others, but it is not an accident if it happens to a time traveler.
To put it this way, the real protagonist of this world is Gu Zheng, not him. He just came to explore the way in advance. Bai Yi felt a lot more relaxed when he thought about it. He actually didn’t want to be the protagonist, he just wanted to be happy. Life, otherwise why would he not take the opportunity to become an official?
