Ying Zheng was indescribably happy when he finally got the magic weapon "My Weapon" he had longed for.
The key point is not the "weapon" placed here, but the method and technique of making this magical weapon. With this kind of skill, you can make as many weapons as you want, and maybe even improve them into better weapons.
Because the secret room was not large and the door was not very wide, Xi and Zhu Jiuyou were waiting in the corridor.
Ying Zheng didn't want to keep them waiting too long, so he looked around again, then walked out of the stone door holding "my weapon", while Li Si followed behind holding the bronze box.
"Did you get it?" Xi saw Ying Zheng coming out and asked, her tone no longer so cold.
Ying Zheng raised the "my weapon" in his hand and said, "I got it. It looks very powerful and the weight is not as heavy as expected. I just don't know how effective it will be in actual combat."
Xi's eyes were fixed on "my weapon" and couldn't move away.
The mythical beast has no hands and cannot use any weapons, but looking at Xi's eyes, it seems that he likes this magic weapon very much.
"Senior, let's go back." Ying Zheng waved his hand and said.
Only then did Xi come to her senses, turned around, and led the way.
After exiting the cave, Xi turned around and said, "Since you have obtained the magic weapon, you might as well try its power."
Ying Zheng was also eager to give it a try and wanted to know the power of the legendary magic weapon, so he walked to a poplar tree as thick as a bowl, held the handle with both hands, and chopped it diagonally with both hands.
Ying Zheng slashed with the shield blade, which was more powerful. However, Ying Zheng didn't use all his strength and just made a tentative slash.
Click...
In a flash of cold light, I saw that the shield blade had penetrated more than half of the tree. If more force was used, it would definitely be chopped off.
Moreover, the cut surface of the tree was very smooth, with not even a bit of debris floating around, which fully demonstrated the sharpness of the shield blade.
Ying Zheng shook "my weapon" from side to side, then pulled out the magic weapon from the tree, and then hurriedly looked at the blade.
The edge of the blade has not changed at all, let alone the curled blade, and even the color has not changed at all.
This is something from more than two thousand years ago!
In terms of age alone, this is a national treasure-level antique. What's more, it is as good as new, tough and sharp, and it is not decayed or weathered.
Ying Zheng took a long breath, with a proud smile on his face.
"It's really good." Xi said from the side, "Although this is the first time I've seen this magic weapon, but judging from the age alone, it's not simple."
Ying Zheng nodded. Although this "my weapon" may not be as good as the Xuanyuan Sword in terms of materials, craftsmanship and even ornamental value, its practicality in actual combat is better than that of the Xuanyuan Sword, because after all, this is a military operation. The weapons used.
Zhu Jiuyou was not interested in weapons, so he urged: "Let's go back to see your Majesty first. On the way, you must consider the suggestions that your Majesty just said."
Ying Zheng nodded, put away the magic weapon, and walked back.
Xi slowed down her pace and let Zhu Jiuyou lead the way, but she came to Ying Zheng.
"King Qin, we took you two to find the magic weapon, and this magic weapon will play a vital role in the great cause of unification in the future. Do we deserve credit?" Xi said slowly. .
"Of course it counts." Ying Zheng said decisively, "If it weren't for the two seniors who led the way, we don't know how many years and months it would have taken us to find this place."
Xi looked at Ying Zheng and said in a low voice: "Then it's not too much for us to ask for some rewards from the King of Qin."
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "When I return to Xianyang, I will order people to send more cattle and sheep as offerings to you two. How about that?"
"Not bad." Zhu Jiuyou in front said with a smile.
For Zhu Jiuyou, having cattle and sheep in his belly is a very good reward.
Unexpectedly, Xi said from the side: "I'm not very interested in cattle and sheep this year."
"Oh?" Ying Zheng asked, "What do you want, senior?"
"Well..." Xi hesitated a little.
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Senior, it doesn't matter if you say so."
Xi stopped, paused, and said: "Back then, your ancestor Huangdi made the Xuanyuan Sword for your Majesty, and also engraved your Majesty's totem on the sword body. Just now you took out the Xuanyuan Sword. Sui was extremely envious, so he thought that it would be great if King Qin could also carve Sui's totem on it when forging this 'my weapon'."
It turned out that this was what Xi wanted in her heart.
Ying Zheng thought for a while and said: "Let's do this. I will study the forging process until the general understands it. If it is feasible, then the request made by the senior will be acceptable."
"Hahaha..." Seeing Ying Zheng agree, Xi was very happy, "Then we'll make it a deal."
"Okay." Ying Zheng smiled.
It's just one more totem, so Ying Zheng doesn't care too much.
Unexpectedly, Ying Zheng's decision hid a hidden danger.
The two beasts passed through the cave again and came to the eye of fire.
Ying Zheng put everything on the ground, then came to the entrance of the cave, cupped his hands and said, "Senior, we have brought the magic weapon."
call……
After a gasp, the blood-red eyes slowly opened again, majestic but not terrifying, solemn but not ferocious.
"It's been more than two thousand years, and I finally saw this thing again." Yazui's voice came, as if he had entered a distant memory.
Since the Yellow Emperor, no one has opened the secret room, let alone used "my weapon".
"Senior, this junior has tried it, and this magic weapon is really easy to use." Ying Zheng said with joy on his face.
The blood-red eyes blinked, and a stern voice came: "Now that you have it, tell me your decision. I will give you some time and you can think about it again."
"Senior." Ying Zheng said decisively, "There is no need to think about it anymore. I have decided to use 'my weapon' to conquer the world. This sword-making skill is also crucial to me."
The blood-colored pupils moved up and down, as if he nodded: "In that case, our agreement has been reached."
Ying Zheng held up his hands and said, "Senior, if you have any requests, if I can do it, I will definitely spare no effort. I hope I will let you know."
"Okay." Yazui said slowly, "I will give you this magic weapon, return the last "Book of Changes" to you, and help you keep the Xuanyuan Sword. These three important things, I will Let me put forward three conditions."
Ying Zheng: "..."
Didn't you say one? Why did it become three? Moreover, Xuanyuan Sword was replaced, so why did it become a safekeeping?
However, Ying Zheng was not angry, because even if it had nothing to do with Xuanyuan Sword, there was no difference between the three conditions proposed by Yazui and one condition.
"Then, senior, what are these three conditions?" Ying Zheng said.
His blood-colored pupils widened a bit, and he said: "You must have heard that you may be the last Heavenly Bearer. After you, a new generation may begin, and by then, this Jiuxiao The order may also change. Therefore, my first condition is to rectify the name of the Dragon Clan."
"To rectify the name of the Dragon Clan?" Ying Zheng asked in confusion.
"That's right." Yazui said, "Because before, the Dragon Clan used the power of nature in Jiuyou, which caused Jiuyou and Jiuxiao to endure a lot of hardships. It is for this reason that you, the Heavenly Successors, used your Heavenly Eyes to control the water. Therefore, since ancient times, So far, the people in Jiuxiao have no good impression of the Dragon Clan, especially some of the ruling class who know the truth."
Ying Zheng touched his head and said, "I have a pretty good impression of the Dragon Clan. It's not like what my senior said."
Yaizhen said in a deep voice: "That's because your era is quite far away from that era. Moreover, you have never dealt with floods and cannot appreciate the hardships."
Ying Zheng was silent for a moment and asked, "What should this junior do?"
"It's not difficult." Yazui said, "You just need to find a way to make the Dragon Clan praised by the world and respected by all spirits."
Isn't this difficult?
Ying Zheng resisted the urge to return "my weapon" and whispered: "I need to think of a way to deal with this condition. I can't reply to my senior yet."
"Then wait until the three conditions are finished, and you can answer them together." Yazhen said.
"Okay." Ying Zheng nodded, "Senior, please tell me the second condition."
Yaizhen raised his voice: "The second one is to ask for an explanation for the nine guardians of the Third Eye."
Xi and Zhu Jiuyou looked at each other, but neither spoke. They seemed to be communicating with their eyes.
Ying Zheng nodded: "The nine guardians have been guarding the Tianmu for generations. It is indeed hard work. However, they dare not let the world know about it. Therefore, the whole Jiuxiao is also very indebted. I understand the feelings of the seniors."
"As for the third one..." Yazui said slowly, "I want you to build your nine-story mausoleum in this Lishan Mountain."
Ying Zheng looked into those blood-red eyes and said, "It doesn't matter where this mausoleum is built. What's embarrassing is that the younger generation still doesn't know how to build it."
"Sooner or later, you will learn, or find a way to build it." Seeing that Ying Zheng did not refuse, Yaizhen said, "The purpose of building the mausoleum here is to better conceal the location of the eye of fire. In the future, you may Many similar buildings will be built, and this method can be used to build the buildings on top of secrets that need to be hidden. If future generations cannot open the mausoleum, they will certainly not be able to reach the eye of fire."
Ying Zheng nodded thoughtfully, as if inspired by something.
The blood-red eyes narrowed, and Yaizhen's majestic voice came: "These are the three conditions of this deity. How to solve them. After you figure out a way, you can leave."
Yaizhen is talking about coming up with a solution, not saying yes or no.
"Let the two of us discuss it." After Ying Zheng finished speaking, he turned around and walked to Li Si to discuss with Li Si.
The blood-red eyes slowly closed, not knowing whether to close his eyes to rest or to leave temporarily.
Xi and Zhu Jiuyou did not bother Ying Zheng and the two, but Zhu Jiuyou knew that Ying Zheng couldn't stand the heat, so he crawled to Ying Zheng and sat up.
After about half an hour, Ying Zheng and Li Si came to the cave entrance again after discussing it.
"Senior, we have already discussed the general idea, but I don't know if it is feasible or not." Ying Zheng said with his hand in hand.
The blood-red eyes slowly opened: "Tell me what you will do."
Ying Zheng cleared his throat and said: "If I unify the country in the future, I will proclaim myself emperor, and then my throne will be passed down to all generations. Starting from me, all descendants who inherit the throne will call themselves the True Dragon Emperor. And everyone in the world will , will regard themselves as the descendants of the dragon. The whole of China will also regard the dragon as a totem. I wonder if this... is possible?"
Yaizhen was silent for a moment and then said: "Yes, the first condition has been passed."
Hearing what Yaizhen said, Ying Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "As for the second condition, I suggest that the nine guardians including the seniors be named the Nine Sons of the Dragon and made public to the world. Moreover, every Each one will compile a biography separately, and if the other eight have their own preferences, they can also engrave their totems on their favorite objects like their predecessors did."
This idea was the suggestion that Xi just put forward, and Ying Zheng used it.
"This is not bad." Yaizhen seemed to be very happy, "Before, my totem was engraved on the Xuanyuan Sword, and the eight of them were very envious of it. Now it just goes with their wishes."
Ying Zheng was very happy to see Yaizhen, and became more confident: "As for the third condition, I will unlock all the secrets about the nine-story Zhou Wu King's Mausoleum as soon as possible, and learn to imitate it, and build my imperial mausoleum in this Lishan Mountain above the eyes of fire."
"Okay... okay..." Yaizhen's voice seemed to be trembling out of excitement, "If this is the case, I can return to Jiuyou, haha..."
So that's it.
Building the royal mausoleum on top of the Fire Eye is the best protection for the Fire Eye, and its role is greater than that of the guardian. Therefore, the guardian can return to the Nine Netherlands...
