In the next period of time, Xu Zhen has been busy around three things.
One is to deal with the case in Yaochang Village, the other is to build life-saving equipment for himself, and the other is to further communicate with Li Chaner.
Due to an unexpected encounter with the mysterious Tianxuan Secret Party, Xu Zhen could only change his strategy and use a more "tactful" way to close the case.
Therefore, there was only one culprit from the beginning to the end of the case, and that was Meng Qingxi!
Meng Qingxi planned and implemented the mass poisoning case in Yaochang Village because she hated her cousin Meng Qinghui.
After the incident was revealed, Meng Qingxi committed suicide by poisoning, but accidentally poisoned six of his team members.
As a result, Meng Qingxi's crime was so heinous that the law did not tolerate it. Even though he committed suicide out of fear of crime, he still had to face trial.
In this way, Xu Zhen concealed everything about Tianxuan Sect, trying to cut off their concerns.
Before, Xu Zhen set a trap for those who were traveling with him, but no suspicious elements were found from beginning to end. In the end, he was not sure whether there were accomplices among those people?
However, Xu Zhen hopes that there really is a Tianxuan Secret Party inside, so that this person can tell Xu Zhen's handling methods to their superiors.
Although someone from the Tianxuan Secret Party died, as long as the secrets of the Tianxuan Sect are not leaked, maybe they don’t want to make the situation worse, right?
Of course, Xu Zhen knew that he could never leave his own safety in the hands of others. Although Li Chan'er was now protecting him, he still had to do more to save his life.
So, Xu Zhen started busy with the second thing.
"The Way of Demons" records many methods of making life-saving equipment, including various hidden weapons, soft armor, and dust guns.
However, these things look simple, but are actually very cumbersome and complicated to build, and the failure rate is extremely high.
Although Xu Zhen is not short of money now, he still lacks technical personnel, as well as various forging tools and equipment.
It is obviously unrealistic to want to create all those life-saving weapons.
Therefore, he could only choose to make simple life-saving items to solve his urgent needs first.
After careful selection, Xu Zhen first fell in love with a hidden weapon - the "Arrow in the Sleeve".
This concealed weapon is compact and compact. After being crafted, it can be hidden on the wrist and can hold three concealed arrows. At critical moments, you only need to turn up your wrist to activate the hidden arrow and take it by surprise.
Then there is the hidden weapon "foot needle". After it is installed on the sole of the shoe, you only need to knock your heel to pop out a steel needle at the back heel, which can be used to deal with enemies behind you.
Then there are those ecstasy powders, escape smoke and other things. Shaking these things out at critical moments can not only make the enemy unable to open their eyes, but also facilitate their escape.
Of course, sweating medicine, incense, etc. that can cause coma or hallucinations are also essential. The formulas of these products are simple and the materials are easy to find. Xu Zhen has prepared them several times before, and now he has mastered the essentials.
In addition to poison, of course there must be an antidote. Xu Zhen also made a universal antidote potion according to the formula in "The Way of Demons". Although this potion cannot be tried and tested, it may be effective if it is really poisoned. Save your life or delay the onset of poison.
Finally, Xu Zhen urgently needs a piece of soft armor to prevent himself from becoming like Meng Qingxi.
However, although there are several methods for making soft armor in "The Way of Demons", the raw materials are all relatively rare.
Either it requires thousand-year-old ancient vines, gold and silver threads, rare iron ore, or many terms that Xu Zhen has never heard of.
Of course, even with these materials, exquisite craftsmanship and appropriate tools are required to make them.
Therefore, Xu Zhen immediately changed his mind and planned to ask people like Li Sixiong or Shen Mingchen to see if he could buy one from somewhere.
Sometimes, Xu Zhen couldn't help but sigh, if he could practice martial arts like Li Chan'er, why would he engage in such heresy?
It's a pity that there are no martial arts secrets recorded in "The Way of Demons". It seems that its author doesn't know martial arts, right?
When his martial arts failed, Xu Zhen thought about the time travel he had seen.
In those time travels, there is always a protagonist who can produce guns, grenades and other weapons in ancient times. From then on, he shocked the martial arts world, laughed proudly at the crowd, and embraced everyone...
But... I also understand the principles of guns and ammunition, but if I really want to make one, it feels so impossible.
Through inherent knowledge and what is stated in "The Way of Demons", the Daxuan Dynasty did have explosives such as black gunpowder, sulfur and saltpeter, and they had long been used in military warfare and mineral mining.
However, their technological levels are really far apart. It is impossible to create pistols, grenades and other items based on the existing technological level alone.
If it was really possible, then the relevant operations would probably have been recorded in this book "The Way of Demons".
In addition, and the most important point is that this Daxuan Dynasty seems to be similar to the ancient feudal dynasty Xu Zhen knew before, but it is only similar.
In fact, there are still quite a few differences in many aspects, including folk customs, hierarchy, historical technology, martial arts systems, etc...
Therefore, to survive in this world, we cannot completely copy the knowledge of the previous world. We must follow the local customs and adapt to local conditions. This is the right way.
Thinking of this, Xu Zhen naturally admired the author of "The Way of Demons" even more, but he didn't know whether this person was his grandfather?
In recent days, Xu Zhen has also fully planned his spare time life and strives to become a time management expert.
He cleverly created a name and deliberately created one opportunity after another to go to the backyard and meet Li Chaner, the beautiful lady of Bingshan.
Before that, he sent his servants to buy medicinal materials early, brew them into medicine according to the recipe of Soul-Reviving Pill, and let Li Sixiong take it.
After taking it, Li Sixiong's complexion improved and his pain symptoms were reduced a lot.
Li Sixiong felt better, and Li Chan'er was naturally happy, and her attitude towards Xu Zhen also improved day by day.
In fact, Xu Zhen generally knew that Li Sixiong's terminal illness was probably cancer.
The reason why the Soul Pill could relieve his symptoms that time was because it contained drugs similar to morphine, which numbed the nerves to relieve pain.
But even so, Li Chan'er was quite relieved, it was better than watching her father suffer in pain.
Living in the same house, Xu Zhen naturally introduced his young daughter-in-law Youmeng to Li Chan'er. Li Chan'er had long known that Xu Zhen had a wife, so it was no surprise that she immediately treated Mrs. Xu politely.
You Meng always obeyed Xu Zhen's advice and never asked a question about the arrival of Li Chan'er and his daughter.
However, although Youmeng was young, she could tell that her husband paid great attention to this female Taoist nun who was wearing a wind-improving robe and holding a green whisk.
Therefore, she was sensible and loved the house very much. She would often send her servants to add items to Li Chan'er and her daughter. Sometimes she would make some fresh delicacies and share them with them...
