In the next few days, Changsun resigned from Prince Tang, took Chu Li and Brother Tieta out of the palace, and settled in Wanyuan Trading Company.
When picking up Chu Li and Tie Ta, another thing happened, that is, Lean Quan left.
When the eldest grandson found out, Brother Tieta told him that not long after he started school at Qingteng, Lianquan began to participate in cage fighting in Yelin City under the arrangement of Tieta.
Due to his status as a dog-like animal spirit, his fighting methods are very novel and immediately attracted the attention of the audience.
At the same time, he also attracted the attention of a five-star secret attendant.
According to Iron Tower, this five-star secret attendant is also a beast spiriter. He attaches great importance to the talent of the dog-like person and wants to take the dog-like person away to practice.
"Then you let him go?" Zhangsun asked.
"This is Quanquan's own choice, and it is the best choice for him." Tieta said expressionlessly.
After hearing this, the eldest grandson's originally angry mood calmed down.
Indeed, the dog-like dog follows the iron tower, and the iron tower cannot create the most tailor-made training for him.
In fact, the reason why the eldest grandson is angry is because he feels guilty about being a canine.
He proposed to bring the dog to Lieyang City, but after arriving here, the eldest grandson has been busy with his own affairs and ignored the dog.
At this time, the human dog made his own choice, maybe it was good for him and himself.
…
Wanyuan Trading Company.
Seeing Changsun taking Chu Li and Brother Tieta with him, Wanwanqian realized that he had been deceived by Changsun again. There were no mess of weapon refiners, soul-imbuing masters, designers, etc. It was obvious that Tieta was the only one who could do the job.
Wanwanqian, who was so filled with hatred that he saw the hill-like body of the iron tower, was angry and dared not speak out. He could only settle down the few people with smiles on his face and tears in his heart.
Fortunately, Iron Tower's level of weapon refining was indeed unpredictable. Changsun did not deceive him on this point, and he discovered that the little girl Chuli was very diligent and quick with her hands and feet. As soon as she settled in, she started busy, cleaning up the shop. All the miscellaneous work was taken care of.
On the contrary, it seems that in the end, only the eldest grandson is the one, who only pays lip service and shows no value.
After eldest grandson arranged all this, he and Wan Qian asked for leave. Logically speaking, there were many things that eldest grandson and Wan Qian needed to decide before the new store opened. However, since the half-year assessment at the college had begun, eldest grandson could only take a few days off.
The half-year assessment for first-year students in the Qizi Academy is mainly theoretical assessment. Most of the assessment content is the basic knowledge of weapon refining and runes. These are not difficult for the eldest grandson. The only thing that is a little special is that Qingteng takes the exam in the middle of each year. An outing practice will be organized for first-year students from all branches.
A few days later, the half-year assessments of each branch ended one after another, and everyone began to prepare busy for the next field practice assessment.
That day, Changsun returned to Yulin Courtyard and found that several people were there and gathered around the round table.
"Ahem, classmate Changsun, hurry up and take your seat. We are going to hold the Yulin Roundtable Conference and you are the only one left." Li Yuan made an official speech as the Great Elder.
After the eldest grandson took his seat, Li Yuan stood up and said in a serious tone: "The second Yulin roundtable meeting of the year will be held today, and all members of the Yulin Academy will participate. The main topic discussed at today's meeting is..."
Before Li Yuan finished speaking, Lu Xiaoran interrupted: "Okay, fat man, stop being official. Today we are just discussing what to do next when we go out for practice?"
Changsun asked: "Is it difficult to practice outside?"
The rest of the people looked as if they were like this, and Li Yuan said: "Changsun, the boss actually didn't finish what he said just now. The reason why we have to discuss it in advance today is largely to let you know what to do when you go out to practice."
The others nodded, seemingly already expecting that the eldest grandson knew nothing about this.
"Actually, I learned a little bit about it in advance. Every year's outing practice is conducted at Ivy League's teaching base. The main purpose is to let the first-year students have an early understanding of the outing practice assessment model and prepare for the year-end assessment. ." Changsun was also a little embarrassed and said quickly.
"Then do you know which teaching base the next outing practice will be held at? What is the content of the assessment? What equipment do you need to prepare for the assessment?" Li Yuan asked three times in succession.
"Uh..." Changsun was speechless.
Lu Xiaoran held her forehead and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, fat man, don't ask questions, just introduce me directly."
Seeing the helpless expressions of the other people towards him, Changsun knew that he was the only one who didn't know this, so he obediently shut his mouth, sat up straight and listened carefully.
"The base for this year's outing practice is the Mist Forest, which is a medium-sized inland area located near Qinling Island. What is special here is that the forest is shrouded in the fog of the Underworld all year round. This fog from the Underworld will be there for a certain period of time. To a certain extent, the five senses and six senses of the warrior are cut off, but fortunately, the period of our practice is the period when the fog is at its weakest. In addition to the fog, another feature of the foggy forest is that it is large, and the forest is rich in various resources, but at the same time It is also full of dangerous spiritual beasts, beasts, dangerous places, etc., and the content of this practical assessment is to travel through the foggy forest."
"The good news is that the traversal route chosen for the practical assessment is relatively easy, and most of the high-level spiritual beasts that can pose a threat around them have been hunted and driven away. As for the equipment that candidates can bring, there are also requirements, such as Changsun's earthly sword, Tang Hao's silver sword, etc. Weapons such as spring guns are not allowed to be carried, but daggers such as ordinary self-defense can be carried. The purpose is to allow the students of Qiziyuan to build their own weapons and equipment. The first stop we took through the forest was an active volcano, at the foot of the mountain There is a refining furnace built by the college on the mountain, and there are rich ore resources around it, which are specially used for refining. The basic situation is like this, the following is the question and answer session." After Li Yuan gave a brief introduction, he gave everyone time to digest the questions.
But Changsun found that everyone was looking at him again. It seemed that this question session was specially arranged for him.
"It shouldn't be difficult if it's just a simple journey through the misty forest, right?" Changsun asked.
"The main purpose of setting up such assessment tasks in the college is to test everyone's ability to work as a team. For example, walking through the forest is more than 500 miles long, which also includes climbing over mountains and forests, and trekking through mountains and rivers. This is very important for students from the Chinese Character Academy and the Fa Zi Academy. It is a huge challenge. After all, physical fitness is their shortcoming. The students of Wuzi Academy have better physical fitness than other academies, and their military force is also ahead of several other academies. But without the assistance of students from Wenzi Academy, in the Mist University When the six senses are isolated like a forest, it is easy for students in the Wuzi Academy to lose their way. After all, planning the annual assessment route, setting the assessment content, and using maps are all compulsory courses before the exams in the Character Academy."
"Also, if everyone is not allowed to bring their own weapons into the foggy forest, the level of force will also be greatly reduced, which makes the students of Qizi Academy indispensable. Therefore, only by cooperating with each other can we pass the assessment better. . And even if there are no high-level spiritual beasts in the assessment route, there are some low-level spiritual beasts or even wild beasts, which are difficult for us to deal with. Even if there are teachers accompanying the team to guide us during the annual outing practice, there will still be some minor casualties." Li Yuan said.
The eldest grandson nodded. He had a deep understanding of the dangers contained in the forest, and he had also experienced the Lost Season of Qinling Island. In such circumstances, it would be difficult to exert 100% of his combat power.
Li Yuan continued: "Although we are a group for outing practice, in fact many students will form small groups one by one before the practice. After all, such small groups formed by mutually beneficial cooperation will be more reliable, which is what the college hopes to see. Yes, this will be more conducive to the later formation of a mercenary group."
Changsun looked at the people around him. The composition of his team was sufficient. Li Yuan had basically collected all the information he needed to master in the early stage. What he still needed to prepare now was to forge for a few people as soon as possible after entering the foggy forest. Come up with handy weapons.
"Fat man, do you know what minerals are around the active volcano?" Changsun asked.
"I have also investigated this. There is a large amount of black iron ore around the foot of the mountain, and the iron content is very high. There is also a large amount of cuprite on the mountainside of the volcano, and the quality is also good. As for higher-grade materials, it is necessary to Went to the crater to look for it." Li Yuan said.
Changsun nodded. These are enough. Forging too high-grade materials is too time-consuming and laborious. These materials are enough to make a good quality weapon.
The eldest grandson turned to Tang Hao and said, "Give me your Silver Spring gun tonight, and I will study it and try my best to imitate the gun that you can use most easily."
Tang Hao nodded, and Tang Xiaoyi on the side said: "I am familiar with the runes on the Silver Spring Gun. Leave the soul to me. Brother Changsun, please see what other runes are needed to forge weapons for everyone. Let me know when you have designed them. I’ll get to know it as quickly as possible in the past two days.”
After several people finished discussing, they went to divide their work and prepare.
A few days later, several aerostats carrying Ivy League students in Lieyang City's airport took off and left Lieyang City, heading for Qinling Island.
This was Changsun's second time riding an aerostat, but compared to the last time he rode in Huo Shaoyun, the conditions of this aerostat were much worse.
The environment inside the airship is somewhat similar to the hard sleeper compartment of the train in Changsun's previous life, divided into compartments. The eldest grandson and others lived in the same compartment. Lu Xiaoran had nothing to do and chatted with the eldest grandson: "This aerostat is called the Carrier. It is an imitation of the Xuanwu number that was eliminated by the Ministry of War in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. The Xuanwu number was used by the Tang Dynasty's Ministry of War. The only advantage of an aerostat that carries supplies and troops is that it is large enough to carry. After Qingteng copied it into a carrier, he took this performance to the extreme and dismantled the external armor originally used by the Xuanwu for defense. Later, it has a stronger carrying capacity and consumes less spiritual stones. It is now the main aerostat for transporting people and goods in the Southern Region Airport."
Changsun nodded. The transport capacity of this carrier was indeed very strong. After having a long conversation with Lu Xiaoran the night before, Lu Xiaoran had indeed done a lot of homework in this regard.
Lu Xiaoran said helplessly: "The manufacturing and production of aerostats is mainly controlled by the arsenal controlled by the Tang Dynasty, followed by the air transport factories in the Southern Region. More than 90% of the aerostats on the market are manufactured by these two factories. .”
At present, it seems that there are many difficulties in squeezing into the aerostat market.
However, both Lu Xiaoran and Changsun knew that this matter could not be rushed and would require a long time of planning.
The carrier does have great advantages in civilian use, but compared to a higher-level aerospace craft like Huo Shaoyun, the speed is indeed much slower, and the accommodation conditions are also much worse, which is inconvenient for the female students in the college. It's quite an ordeal.
After the carrier docked at the airport on Qinling Island, the students had one day to adjust, and then they had to ride for several more days to reach the misty forest.
While resting on Qinling Island, what the eldest grandson didn't expect was that Si Qin actually participated in this outing. What was even more unexpected was that Tang Yuyan and Mo Yushan were also in the team.
In Si Qin's words, although I am a girl, as Si Nanzheng's daughter, I am also an excellent mercenary.
Tang Yuyan and Mo Yushan participated in this outing as exam assistants.
The next few days were even more difficult than those on the aeroboat. The students were riding in a car pulled by several thousands of miles of horses. The ride experience was extremely poor and bumpy along the way. Many of the weak students were already looking pale before they reached the misty forest. pale.
"Sister Yuyan, if you hadn't forced me to come here, I wouldn't have come to help with the exam. I almost couldn't survive last year's exam." Mo Yushan said with a bitter face, but compared to those first-year students from the Chinese Literature Academy, Mo Yushan's condition is obviously much better.
Tang Yuyan said expressionlessly: "I brought you here just to let you exercise."
Mo Yushan had a sad face and muttered in a low voice: "You want to help the eldest grandson, but you want to use me as a shield."
After several days of traveling and traveling, the students of Ivy College finally arrived in the Misty Forest.
