"This thing..."
It was getting dark. After completing several sets of military postures, Li Yuan changed his clothes and opened the booklet given to him by Jing Shuhu under the flickering light:
"M-Directory?"
Li Yuan rubbed his eyes and flipped through a few more pages, only to realize that this already thick book was really a catalog.
The books in the catalog cover fire, iron identification, quenching, plasticity, etc., and there are no less than 1,200 books!
"Fuck, so many?!"
Li Yuan stared, then realized: "No wonder the old guy's expression..."
Thinking of Jing Shuhu's smile before leaving, Li Yuan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. From time to time, he would read one or two unofficial histories and storybooks for fun, but chewing through thousands of them would be fatal.
"The art of weaponry can't be so complicated, I'll take a look..."
Li Yuan started from the beginning and felt a little relieved.
Most of the books in these catalogs are about blacksmithing, and only a small half are about forging weapons.
Moreover, many of them are the personal experiences of the elders of the Forging Soldier Valley in the past. The most important thing is that there are only more than ten copies.
"More than a dozen books are fine..."
After closing the catalog book, Li Yuan came to the yard. The night sky after the rain was very clear, and the four bright moons were shining brightly.
He raised the hammer and moved, slowly pushing the soldiers' posture, each move was still the same as before.
However, with the talent of Hammer Technique and the superimposed blessing of the 'Xiao Cheng' Dacheng-level Weapon Dao Fighting Hammer, he felt that the energy, blood and internal energy of the Hammer Technique were flowing smoothly, and his progress was greatly increased.
…
Early the next morning, Li Yuan went to the library and borrowed the books in the catalog.
The books on the art of weaponry were all in the inner building. Li Yuan did not waste the opportunity to enter the inner building only three times a year, but borrowed them in the name of Jing Shuhu.
"Elder Lei has told me that this time will not be counted as your number."
The fat old man hurried downstairs with the book in his arms. With a smile on his face, he was much more respectful than before and said:
"The books in the inner building are not allowed to be damaged, and they are not allowed to be passed on to outsiders. In other words, you are the real one, and ordinary disciples cannot borrow them at all..."
"Thank you."
When Li Yuan saw it from a distance, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the dozens of brick-thick books.
A light cyan light emerged from his eyes:
[Soldier tempering method (Level 4)]
[The book made of red rhinoceros leather and soaked in special medicinal liquid has dozens of craftsmen and master craftsmen writing annotations on it... It has been passed down for thousands of years, and the hard work has been gathered, and it has become supernatural...]
[Conditions for mastery: perfect blacksmithing method, perfect weapon tempering method, and perfect military craftsmanship]
[Controller effect: The art of war is perfected (dark green), the art of war is perfected (light green)]
An unexpected surprise?
Li Yuan's heart skipped a beat. This was the second kind of book he had seen that could be controlled besides the fundamental diagram.
And, as expected, there are at least three sets of 'Armor Tempering', 'Armor Psychic' and 'Armor Psychic'!
'How extensive is the weaponry of Zhangbinglu?
Although the control requirements for this set of books were very high, Li Yuan was still quite surprised, and at the same time he also became very interested in other secret books in the inner building.
He remembered that intermediate martial arts and superior martial arts both had body plans...
Under the old tree outside the library, two old men were still playing chess, making noises from time to time.
"The Art of Weapons? He is indeed a wizard of forging, but Grand Elder Jing has not taught anyone the Art of Weapons for many years."
The taller old man caught a glimpse of Li Yuan and was amazed.
Another short and fat old man shook his head: "Boy Li, although the art of war is a magical art, martial arts is the right way..."
"What is the right way and not the right way? In our Divine Weapon Valley, isn't this art of weaponry the right way?"
"Old thing!"
"old man!"
two
When people disagree, they get angry with each other, and it seems like they might get into a fight at any time.
"Mr. Wang, Mr. Liu, you continue, I will bring you some wine and meat to play chess with you another day."
Li Yuan didn't bother him, said hello, turned around and left.
These two old men were once the elders of the outer sect, but they retired due to problems in their practice or injuries and took up their posts in the library.
Of course, they are not the only ones sitting in the library.
There are constant frictions between the outside and the inside of Shenbing Valley all year round, and there are not a few disciples and elders who have retreated with broken hands and legs.
The pensions that should be paid for these will not be less, and the sect will have to support them for the rest of their lives.
This is also the rule of the Divine Weapon Valley.
"These retired old guys are ignored most of the time, but their potential power is not small..."
Li Yuan never underestimated anyone, especially these old guys who could still retreat after a deadly battle.
…
In the next few days, Li Yuan lived a very fulfilling life.
Every day before dawn, he would practice the art of fighting with the killing hammer in the yard. At dawn, he would go to the Forging Valley to forge iron and repair the giant hammer of 80,000 miles.
With his forging skills, slight damage is nothing.
Go home in the evening, have a meal, take a medicinal bath, and send Yu Xiang and the others away, then control the little green snake's basic plan and continue to change the root bones.
This may be the reason why the root bone has been changed many times. Although the pain is still unbearable every time, the progress is much faster than at the beginning.
After being exhausted, Li Yuan swallowed the elixir, leaned on the bedside, flipped through the books, and memorized the words silently, word by word.
He believes that the essence of Zhangbinggui is that after years of blessing, it will eventually digest all the effects and completely integrate them into oneself.
Corresponding to the blessing of "Introduction to the Art of Weapons", Li Yuan was eager to improve himself rapidly.
"Senior Brother Li!"
On this day, as soon as Li Yuan went out, an outer disciple came in a hurry and bowed to salute.
"The elder in charge is back and sent me to inform senior brother."
"Elder Sun is back?"
Li Yuan's eyes brightened slightly.
He has not yet fully accepted the rewards of the True Inheritance. Liu Zheng is responsible for taking care of the fields, shops, houses, mines, etc.
He doesn't need the dragon horse for the time being. He can save some fodder money by leaving it in the stable.
As for the famous weapons, inner armor, six-spirit boots, and three small magic-returning elixirs, he had to go to the Shenbing Pavilion to get them in person.
He had been there once before, but the chief elder, Sun Zan, was out and about, so it had been postponed until now.
"Thank you, junior brother!"
Li Yuan had been thinking about this reward for a long time, and immediately went to the Shenbing Pavilion with the disciple.
The Shenbing Pavilion is still heavily guarded above the library. There are several groups of disciples wearing heavy armor patrolling in the distance, and there seem to be hidden sentries all around.
"Brother Shaofang?"
From a distance, Li Yuan saw Shao Fang Bai. The latter's face was slightly stiff, and he raised his hands in salute:
"Senior Brother Li."
"Brother Shaofang, where are you coming from?"
Li Yuan caught a glimpse of the luggage on his body and was a little surprised.
Shaofang Bai's family belongs to the Bai family, and his family has a fortune of tens of millions, so he will definitely not go on missions just for pills and silver.
"Several brothers and sisters were dumped in the Grand Canal. The elders sent people to trace them, and I was one of them."
Shaofang Bai's face was expressionless, and he obviously had no intention of talking. He said something and left quickly.
"Another disciple was killed?"
Li Yuan frowned slightly. He had heard about similar things at least four or five times during this period.
Considering the status and power of Divine Weapon Valley in Hidden Dragon Mansion, this is obviously abnormal...
"Li Yuan?"
In the small courtyard on one side of the Shenbing Pavilion, a rather elegant old man with a goatee walked out.
"Elder Sun."
Li Yuan handed over his hand.
Shenbing Pavilion is an important place in the valley, and the status of the chief here is naturally very high.
Although he has no direct connection, he is the brother-in-law of Gong Yangyu, the owner of the valley.
The true disciples of the elders of the inner and outer sects have to give him some face.
"There is no need to go to the Shenbing Pavilion. I have collected all your things for you!"
Elder Sun smiled and invited him into the hospital.
"Collect it on your behalf?"
Li Yuan frowned.
The most famous weapons in the Shenbing Pavilion are famous weapons, but there are also gaps between famous weapons. Furthermore, how can there be any reason for anyone to receive the things that were rewarded to him in the valley?
Squinting his eyes slightly, Li Yuan followed him into the small courtyard without having any seizure.
The yard is not small, with three entrances inside and outside. There are six unknown fruit trees planted in the outermost yard, which have already produced fist-sized green fruits.
"I have long heard that there is a true dragon-shaped creature in the valley. When I saw it today, it is indeed well-deserved!"
Elder Sun smiled gently and invited Li Yuan into the room. He held a teapot and poured tea for the two of them.
"This tea I have is made from fine bamboo from the mountains. One tael of tea leaves and one tael of gold. How about you try it?"
Elder Sun entertained him warmly, and Li Yuan smiled and took the teacup, full of praise.
"Dragon-shaped root bone. I haven't seen such a talented disciple in the valley for seventy years. I really envy me!"
Sun Zan was full of praise, but seemed to have forgotten the real thing.
'What does this old guy want to do?
Li Yuan felt a little cold in his heart. Sun Zan didn't mention the reward, so he didn't mention it either. He followed around in circles, asking about various things inside and outside the valley, and inside and outside the city.
"I heard that the Valley Master has a group of snow-traveling red dragon horses, worth thousands of gold..."
"By the way, I wonder if the elder knows that there is any dispute between the family teacher and the elder Jingda?"
"Elder Kuyue...Elder Qiu..."
Sun Zan's eyelids twitched and he lost his temper. Why does this kid always inquire about other people's private affairs?
He knew all this, but if he spread the word, he would be beaten and blocked in front of the door.
"Ahem!"
Sun Zan coughed slightly and said, "It's too far, too far."
"To be fair to the elder, Li is quite curious about these things. By the way, I heard that when the Valley Master was young..."
"Ahem!"
Sun Zan almost choked and interrupted quickly:
"Speaking of which, in a few days, I will hold a banquet at the Baiwei Tower in Fucheng to celebrate my sixtieth birthday. I don't know..."
Sixtieth birthday?
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled and responded: "If the elder invites you, Li will naturally go!"
Are you asking him to give you a gift?
Li Yuan changed his mind, but felt something was wrong.
With Sun Zan's status, how can he value the money of giving gifts...
"Oh!"
Sun Zan slapped his forehead, feeling quite annoyed:
"I have a bad memory as I get older, so I almost forgot the important thing!"
He turned into the inner room, and after a while, he came out carrying a heavy hammer, and the beautiful woman was holding a tray with inner armor, boots, and a bottle of elixirs.
"This hammer?"
Li Yuan thought it was like a hammer, but he was surprised when he glanced at it.
This heavy hammer is as tall as a man. It is black and blue with fine lines and smooth lines. It is heavy but does not feel bloated.
He reached out and took it, weighed it for a moment, and was actually very satisfied:
[Mixed Gold Daxi Yi Hammer (Level 4)]
[Mainly red and white mysterious jade, mixed with various metals, made of quenching the blood of hundreds of beasts, heavy but not very heavy...]
[Conditions for control: any one of the superior hammer techniques, perfect hammer techniques, inferior hammer techniques, and great strength of the bear and tiger]
[Controller effects: Hammer talent (light yellow), Heavy as a sword (dark green), Physical talent (light yellow)]
This heavy hammer has the smell of a high-grade famous instrument. If it weren't for the limited material and the low heat, it would probably be a top-grade famous instrument!
Li Yuan weighed it for a moment and already knew in his heart that there was still a chance for this hammer to be forged.
「
This hammer was carefully selected by me. What do you think? "
Sun Zan pinched his goatee and smiled: "Can you still take advantage of it?"
"Thank you, Elder Sun!"
Li Yuan guessed that Sun Zan had ulterior motives, but the hammer really suited his liking, so he naturally handed it over in thanks.
"That being the case, I'm relieved."
Sun Zan nodded and picked up the tea cup.
Li Yuan handed over his hands, picked up the things on the tray, and left with the heavy hammer.
As he was about to leave the hospital, he glanced at the rooms next door.
After Zhang Wengui was promoted to the fifth level, the range he could sense was greatly increased. As long as he concentrated on sensing, the wall would naturally not be able to block it.
With a casual glance, I saw a corner of light yellow.
[Zhanjiang Dao (Level 5)]
[Mainly made of thousands of years of blazing gold, mixed with dozens of irons, quenched by hundreds of thousands, hand-made by master craftsmen, stained with dozens of human blood, it has become supernatural...]
[Conditions for mastering: Five-Colored Lingxu Sword, small success, Tianxing Sword, Dzogchen, Blue Sea Lingxu Sword, Black Turtle Sword, etc.]
[Control effects: sword skill talent (dark green), armor-piercing sharpness (light green), not easily damaged (light green), five-color Lingxu Sword Dzogchen (yellow)]
Light yellow color, high-grade famous weapon, five-color Lingxu knife...
"This knife."
Li Yuan's heart shivered slightly, and after a slight pause, he stepped away:
"Shi Hong..."
…
call!
As soon as Li Yuan left, Sun Zan couldn't help but hold his chest and trembled with pain:
"I have a sharp heart..."
That hammer was a fine piece of art, and its price was at least one thousand five hundred taels of silver.
The beautiful woman was about to say something when she suddenly bent down and said, "Young Master!"
"It's just a famous weapon. If Elder Sun is reluctant to part with it, Mr. Shi will buy it at a price."
Shi Hong walked into the house.
"We are a family, how can we speak the same language?"
Sun Zan stood up to greet him, invited him to take a seat, and poured tea for him with his own hands: "If Master Shaogu wants to see him, he will never dare to refuse even if he says a word. Why..."
Shi Hong smiled and said nothing, but glanced at the beautiful woman, who had already taken a book from the bookshelf nearby:
"This is the new 'talent list' released by Yunshu Tower..."
Shi Hong looked slightly serious and said in a deep voice: "Can I ask where this list comes from?"
"Yun Shulou only said that a passing merchant sold it to them. As for who the merchant was and where he came from, no one knows..."
"No one knows."
Shi Hong looked gloomy.
This list has only been around for more than half a month, but it has already caused a sensation in the entire Hidden Dragon Mansion. The sensation was the blood of nine elite disciples of the inner sect!
"The person who made this list must be related to the murderer!"
Sun Zan said solemnly:
"The disciples of the Overwatch Hall are arresting the merchant, and I think there will be results soon."
Within half a month, inner disciples were killed one after another, and the Divine Weapon Valley was naturally shaken. Elders went out to hunt down the murderers, but found nothing.
The only thing that may be relevant is this list of talents.
Because the order in which the nine disciples were killed corresponded to their rankings on the list,
From low to high...
"I killed nine elite disciples of my inner sect in half a month, but not even a trace was left behind..."
Shi Hong tapped the so-called talent list:
"For hunting down my sect disciples in such a majestic way, this beast deserves to die, it deserves to be killed!"
"Deserves to be killed!"
Sun Zan nodded repeatedly and accidentally glanced at the talent list opened by Shi Hong and saw familiar names.
'this……
His heart trembled as he thought of his birthday banquet...
Does Master Shaogu really want to win over Li Yuan?
…
…
"Shi Hong..."
In the forging yard, there was a lot of hammering sound. Li Yuan was hammering iron, his brows slightly furrowed, still thinking.
He also met Shi Hong several times after the True Inheritance Ceremony, and the latter's attitude changed a lot, and he seemed to have lost his malice.
But Shi Hong was clearly here today, but he didn't show up...
"Then Sun Zan doesn't have the guts to openly murder the true heir of the sect, but this banquet..."
After thinking for a while and having no idea, Li Yuan simply gave up thinking, but made up his mind.
No matter what you want to do, Taoist master won't go to that ghost banquet!
"Senior Brother Li!"
At this time, someone shouted, and Zhu Chen stood at the entrance of the forging field and waved:
"Eighty thousand miles, eighty thousand miles, he wants to see you..."
"Um!"
Li Yuan responded, but still finished beating the fine iron.
He just picked up the repaired drum and golden hammer and quickly followed Zhu Chen.
