Chapter 313 Giving Su Chen a helping hand in times of needHearing Gu Feng's words, Elder Shangxuan's face was full of smiles. This was the Gu Feng he knew. Only disciples like this will be able to shoulder great responsibilities in the future. If you can't face your own mistakes calmly when you are young, I wonder how stubborn you will become when you get older. "If you think this way, I will be relieved. With young people like you in the future, Tiangang City will not decline. " If a large sect wants to collapse, it is most likely because of internal problems. As long as the younger generations of the sect can have such a character, Master Shangxuan believes that the sect can be passed down for thousands of years. "The mid-year competition will be postponed for a few days and will be held on June 19th. You can rest for two days before setting off again.
In addition, in addition to you and Su Chen, we will also arrange two disciples to participate in the mid-year competition. You decide the candidate." Gu Feng agreed to this matter and then left Master Shangxuan's courtyard. Although he got this task, Gu Feng would not push his sister and brother to do it. The mid-year competition is where the top disciples from all the major sects in the Great Zhou compete. There is still a lot of room for improvement between Gu Wei and Gu Yu. Gu Feng still turned his gaze to the older disciples. At least their strength level is at the seventh level or the initial level of the sixth level. In comparison, perhaps his talent and potential are not top-notch, but at least his strength is enough. The departure time is set for three days later. During these three days, Su Chen stayed at home to consolidate his own strength. In fact, I feel like there is nothing to consolidate. Compared with the initial stage of the sixth level, the overall state of the person in the middle stage of the sixth level is more stable. On the contrary, when I was at the initial stage of the sixth level, I needed to consolidate my own realm in various ways. Entering the middle realm, I felt much more relaxed. Instead of spending too much time consolidating your strength, spend more time with your family. After the front line of Tiangang City was advanced, the business in the city became more prosperous. In addition, because a lot of wasteland has been reclaimed on the front line, the grain output in Tiangang City has increased a lot this year. Many surrounding cities and merchants now choose to come to Tiangang City.
Bring some stuff to sell, and take some stuff back to sell. These vendors made a lot of money. But it also promoted the prosperity of economy and trade. Su Chen was also strolling around Tiangang City with his younger sister, only to find that the city had become so much more lively. I came out for a stroll today and intentionally didn't ask my mother to come with me. When my mother is around, she won’t let me buy this or wear that. Obviously the family was already very wealthy, but my mother was such a person that she preferred to endure hardship and refused to enjoy the good things. People of that generation seem to be a bit like this. The east side of Tiangang City is called East Market. All kinds of things are organized and sold in different areas here. Accompanying my little sister along the way. From cultural relics to livestock and birds, there are quite a lot of goods on display here. Whatever I want to buy, I feel like I can buy it. The little sister walked to a stall and her eyes fell on a hairpin. It is dotted with some red gems and looks very delicate. Just as she was about to reach out to touch her, Su Chen directly pulled the little sister and took her away. “There are still a lot of sand grains in the cracks of the silver hairpin. Although it has been cleaned thoroughly, there are still some residues in some places that can be seen. If nothing unexpected happens, that thing must have been dug out of the ground." When my younger sister heard this, she didn’t quite understand what Su Chen meant. She must still be thinking that it wouldn't matter if it was dug out from the ground. Just clean it. "When I said it was dug out from the ground, I meant that this thing was stolen from a tomb. Most likely, it was taken from a dead body." This time, Su Chen hadn't finished speaking. The little sister already had goose bumps all over her body. "Brother, please stop talking." She finally understood why Su Chen didn't let her touch that thing.
Seeing that his younger sister was quite fond of all kinds of jewelry, Su Chen simply took her to a gold shop. Although it is much more expensive here than outside, at least it is safe. It’s not easy to run a store there. I earn those resources to provide for my family so that they can live a good life. I customized a hairpin and a bracelet for my younger sister, and also picked out two items for my mother. Every time this happens, Su Chen can realize the significance of earning resources. After buying some jewelry, Su Chen took his younger sister to make some clothes. As girls get older, they pay more and more attention to their appearance. My mother always let my younger sister wear coarse cloth clothes, and Su Chen wanted his younger sister to live a better life. Seeing her happy makes me happy too. After these were decided, Su Chen took his younger sister to buy some snacks and desserts. Bought a little more to take home. When buying things, Su Chen stuffed some silver into his younger sister's pocket. My younger sister is no longer the little girl she used to be. She needs to understand how to plan and manage money. And sometimes when she wanted to buy something, something a little private, she had no money. Su Chen thought about it and decided to give his younger sister some money regularly in the future. Also teach her how to plan and use it reasonably. In the teahouse in the distance, Jin Fu and Jin Chao, the grandfather and grandson, were frowning as they watched the scene in front of them. "Who is the woman next to Su Chen to him? It seems that the two of them are a little too close?" There was some worry in Jin Fu's words, and he was still thinking about pushing Jin Yue over. This situation caught him off guard. Jin Chao, who was standing by, shook his head upon hearing this. “That girl is Su Chen’s sister who grew up with him, not anything else. The two siblings have lived under the same roof for many years and have a very good relationship with each other.” Hearing that it was his sister, Jinfu felt a little relieved. "Have you been in touch with Su Chen during this period? What did he say about the two pills I returned? " Hearing this, Jin Chao shook his head helplessly. “These days, Su Chen simply refuses to see me.
His family members didn't welcome him either, and it was hard to even see him. When we met on the road, he refused to say a word to me. These words made Jin Fu snort coldly again. "Look at what you and your good-for-nothing father have done. The Shen family has that jade pill, and I wonder how far they have progressed in their research. " Jin Chao seemed to be used to Jin Fu's scolding. He just shrugged slightly, and there seemed to be no other reaction. “I talked to Yue’er yesterday, and now she and Su Chen are also very distant. She was completely speechless." Jin Fu was not surprised when he heard this. “Opportunities are hard to grasp. Once you miss them, it’s not easy to get them again. If it were me, and you treated me like this, I would respond to you in an even worse manner." Jin Chao didn't say anything. He really had no choice now. He couldn't even talk to Su Chen, what else could he do? How can I get that pill back? Seeing Jin Chao like this, Jin Fu snorted again. "If I ask you to find a solution, I'm afraid this matter won't be solved at all. You don't know how to adapt at all." Jin Chao on the side looked at his grandfather. Since my grandfather said so, it means that he already has some ideas in mind. "Have you ever heard of the mid-year competition in the capital?" Seeing Jin Chao shaking his head, Jin Fu felt tired of even scolding him. “The list of candidates from each major sect who will be participating in this year’s mid-year competition has been announced. Su Chen is determined to participate this year. From the information I got, Su Chen's participation in this mid-year competition was mainly due to the Yunyang Sect's instigation. Because of Su Chen, the reputation of Yunyang Sect has suffered great damage since last year. The purpose of Yunyang Sect's mid-year competition this time is to fully demonstrate Su Chen's true strength to the public." "But what does this have to do with us?" Jin Chao asked weakly, but before he could finish his words, he was glared at by his grandfather. "When others are in power, showing kindness to them is called flattery and adulation. Showing goodwill to others when they are down is called providing timely assistance and helping others out of a sense of righteousness.
Since Tiangang City allowed Su Chen to participate in this mid-year competition, it means that they are ready to give up on him. I have already learned from your father that Su Chen's martial arts skills are average. The outside world's praise for him was all created by Tiangang City. The Yunyang Sect's careful deployment this time will definitely expose his true colors. When others despise and belittle him, we step in to lend a helping hand. Our Jin family stands firmly by his side. What will he think of us? Is it necessary to care about the unpleasant things that happened between you and him in the past?" Hearing his grandfather's words, Jin Chao's eyes lit up slightly. If you can give Su Chen a helping hand when he is in need, you can indeed quickly gain Su Chen's favor. This method does sound effective. "Looking at you like this, if I ask you to solve these problems, is there a chance that they will be properly resolved?" Jin Chao wanted to refute his grandfather's complaints. He is just a descendant of the Jin family, and the sect's intelligence information is not open to him. How did he know that Su Chen was going to participate in the mid-year competition in the capital? How did he know that the Yunyang Sect wanted to destroy his reputation? It was clearly due to other factors, but in the case of my grandfather, it was attributed to his lack of ability. Jin Chao did not argue with his grandfather. If I say something to refute him, I might get scolded again. "Tiangang City should be leaving for the capital in two days. You and Yue'er should go back to Yinchuan City together. Then you two siblings can go to the capital with your parents to watch the competition. Someone will teach you how to respond to relevant situations and how to show your true feelings." After saying that, Jin Fu left the teahouse directly. Jin Chao was left alone, still thinking about the recent plan. Jin Chao is still a little confused. Tiangang City knew that Su Chen would be targeted by the Yunyang Sect and would be ruined. It will even affect the reputation of Tiangang City. Then why let Su Chen go? Is it really impossible to refuse?
Jin Chao felt something was wrong, but he didn't have too many doubts. After all, he didn't have much information and didn't know the deeper inside story. And many times, various forces will make some helpless choices. Thinking of this, Jin Chao couldn't help thinking again. Does Tiangang City know that Su Chen knows a top alchemist?
