Devouring Chaos

Chapter 62 Imperial Examination

"What about the imperial examination?"

Guan Xiaobai asked doubtfully!

Chen Geng was stunned.

"The imperial examination is held every year to provide talents for the country. Don't you know that?"

"We hold literary and martial arts competitions once a year! Those who excel will be sent to the Imperial City to serve the country!"

"What a great honor this is! Every young person dreams of getting good grades and entering the Imperial City!"

"Uh, okay!"

Guan Xiaobai touched his nose! This imperial examination seemed to be useless to him, he could participate or not!

He never thought about serving the emperor. He didn't like being constrained. How good it would be to be free? Why live under someone else's roof?

"Get ready. The imperial examination will begin in ten days!"

"After all, you are from Changyuan City. It is your duty to bring honor to Changyuan City!"

"Okay!" Guan Xiaobai shrugged helplessly. This matter was actually forced!

"By the way, Master Chen, can you help me ask for the princess's Frost Heart?"

He thought that the princess actually appeared in Changyuan City, so this would be the only chance to save Ali!

It seems that Ali is not destined to die!

Just now, he did not use the well digging incident to ask for Yan Meili's Frost Heart because he was afraid of leaving her with the image of greed! Things cannot be rushed, otherwise, the result will be counterproductive! After all, it was the first time he met Yan Meili, and he wanted such a precious thing. After being rejected once, it would be difficult to ask for it the second time!

Maybe the effect will be better if we ask through Chen Geng now!

Chen Geng looked shocked!

The Frost Heart is Yan Meili's favorite thing! It would be difficult to get it!

"Guan Xiaobai, you must be kidding! Why would the princess give me this?"

"Hey, it's not me who needs it, it's Miss Ali who needs it!"

Then Guan Xiaobai roughly told Chen Geng about Ali’s current condition!

Chen Geng took a breath after hearing this!

"This is a matter of life and death, let me give it a try!"

"But I'm not sure whether I can come over!"

"The princess is of high status and is the apple of everyone's eye! After all, she is the only child of Emperor Yan. I'm afraid she will be arrogant and spoiled. It's not easy to have her!"

He had never met the princess before and didn't know what her personality was like, so he felt a little nervous!

Guan Xiaobai looked surprised after hearing this!

It is incredible that Emperor Yan only has one child, and it is a daughter!

This was the first time he heard that an emperor had only one son. In his opinion, which emperor didn't have many sons?

"How about this, you tell her that I am willing to hand over the method of purifying fine salt, and see if she is willing?"

It goes without saying how precious fine salt was in ancient times. Ordinary people would get sick easily if they ate coarse salt for a long time, and they would lose strength without salt! It is an indispensable substance for the human body!

After all, there are still many ordinary people in Yan Country who have not yet established their foundation!

Of course, the foundation-building monks can basically resist the side effects of using coarse salt! But how many foundation-building monks are there? There are probably only a dozen of them in the entire Changyuan City with a population of hundreds of thousands!

"If she doesn't agree, I will steal and rob to get the Frost Heart!"

Guan Xiaobai said angrily!

Chen Geng was shocked after hearing this!

"You little brat, don't mess around. The princess is a precious girl. If something goes wrong in Changyuan City, the people of the whole city will suffer!"

"Emperor Yan has only one daughter, but she is so precious!"

Guan Xiaobai rolled his eyes and said,

"So you must do your best to get the Frost Heart!"

"Okay, I get it, but don't ever have such dangerous thoughts again!"

Chen Geng was in deep thought, and then gave a warning!

Then Chen Geng left the hall and went in the direction Yan Meili left!

I guess he went to find the princess!

"Xiaobai, you must save Miss Ali!"

Lu Yuewen said from the side!

"I know! Don't worry!"

"Let's go, we'll follow Master Chen. If Master Chen doesn't want it, we'll go get it in our own way!"

Guan Xiaobai said in a deep voice!

"it is good!"

Lu Yuewen was not afraid of offending the princess at all. With Xiaobai in front of her, she felt fearless!

Then the two of them followed Chen Geng!

The City Lord's Mansion is quite large and has everything you need! Pavilions, side rooms, rockery, a small lake, woods, and a rest area are all fully equipped!

Guan Xiaobai followed Chen Geng out of the reception hall and headed towards the back hall!

There are several rows of pavilions not far away. I guess the princess lives in one of the rooms!

Passing through a willow forest and walking on a winding gravel path, there is a small stream next to it, which is a bit like the "Qu Shui Liu Shang" (meaning "flowing wine on a winding stream").

Soon Guan Xiaobai followed Chen Geng into the corridor of a row of buildings!

"Who?"

Xiao Long's voice sounded not far away!

Then Guan Xiaobai heard the sound of weapons colliding and metal clanging!

"How dare this lunatic attack the princess!"

Xiao Long's voice was heard again! And the guards came running over after hearing the noise!

Guan Xiaobai was startled.

"Oh no, someone is trying to assassinate the princess! Let's go quickly!"

Guan Xiaobai grabbed Lu Yuewen's hand and ran towards the direction where the noise came from!

It took two minutes, and I arrived at the pavilion with the guards!

The windows of the building were broken, and Xiao Long and a familiar man jumped out of the room and started fighting on the flat grass outside!

"It's Gold Teeth!" Guan Xiaobai snorted coldly!

Jin Ya did not wear a mask, as if he felt it was unnecessary!

And there was also a strange man in golden armor fighting with two people who looked a little stiff! They were having a great time fighting, and judging from the strength of the aura emitted by both sides, their strength was in the late stage of foundation building!

The two men fighting with the man in golden armor had pale faces with a hint of green. They were wearing Qing Dynasty official uniforms that were completely bloodless. Their arms were stiff and their nails were long and thin. Every time they attacked the man in golden armor, they jumped and used their sharp nails to stab or cut. Their movements were very strange!

"It's a zombie!" Guan Xiaobai exclaimed in surprise! This is basically the same as the zombies in the movies I watched in my previous life!

And it’s not just an ordinary zombie, it’s a walking zombie!

Zombies are also divided into levels. The initial stages are purple zombies, white zombies, and green zombies!

Purple zombie: Purple zombie generally refers to a zombie that has died shortly after death, so its body appears light purple. Purple zombie cannot move freely and is an incomplete form of zombie.

White zombie: The corpse is white. This kind of zombie is easy to deal with. It moves slowly and is afraid of light, fire, water, chickens, dogs, and even people.

Green zombie: The corpse exudes zombie aura and the zombie's body is green. Compared with Baijiang, it jumps extremely fast and is not afraid of people or livestock, but only afraid of the sun.

Judging from the performance of this zombie at this moment, it should be a walking zombie between the white zombie and the green zombie!

The strength cannot be underestimated!

However, Yan Meili was not hurt. It seemed that Xiao Long discovered Jin Ya's actions in time!

Not far from Yan Meili stood a man in a gray robe emitting a chilly aura. He was surrounded by corpse qi and had a strong aura. He had actually reached the peak of foundation building! He was facing Yan Meili from a distance!
