What Long Chen said completely overturned their cognition. They knew how good Long Chen was, but they never dared to imagine that their children and grandchildren could be the master of the mirage who was so expressionless at the talk. The amount of information was so large that they were stunned for a long time and couldn't recover.
"Chen'er, you, you really are the master of the mirage!"
Long Chen nodded: "Yes, but you still need to go through a test before you can truly control it. In addition, because the mirage is of great importance, please forgive me for not revealing too much to the outside world."
Long Shan quickly said: "That's right. The bi is not guilty of the crime, so Chen'er, remember not to tell anyone about the mirage easily in the future. After we heard it today, we won't mention it to anyone, including your uncle." I won’t ask you about the mirage again.”
"Chen'er, my mother's thoughts are the same as my grandpa's. You still have a long way to go, so don't trust anyone."
"Chen'er, my godmother doesn't understand how to practice cultivation, but my godmother knows the complexity of human nature and should think twice before doing anything."
Long Chen nodded and said: "Grandpa, don't worry, mothers, my children will definitely remember your teachings."
Longshan sighed: "Chen'er, grandpa is proud of your excellence, but also because of your excellence, it means that you have to shoulder a much heavier burden than ordinary people. Grandpa is old, and there is nothing he can do to help you?" It’s up to you to take it step by step, and grandpa will always be behind you to support you silently.”
"Thank you, grandpa."
Yun'er said bitterly: "Brother Chen, Yun'er is really useless. If Yun'er has half the skills of Brother Chen, I can travel the world with Brother Chen."
Duan Zhu gently brushed her hair and said, "Yun'er, you are still young. Brother Chen will never forget you."
"Mom, Yun'er is not young anymore. I just want to share the burden on my shoulders with Brother Chen."
Long Chen came over to comfort him and said, "Yun'er, don't worry, when the big thing happens, I will definitely take sister Yun'er with me to travel around the world."
"Brother Chen, please don't lie to me!" Yun'er finally smiled and stretched out her slender fingers.
"I lied to you that I was a puppy." Long Chen stretched out his finger and hooked it with Yun'er's middle finger.
After a moment of shyness, Yun'er retracted her fingers and leaned behind Duan Zhu.
Seeing the happy family, Long Chen suddenly thought: why not take this opportunity to tell his adoptive mother the truth about his adoptive father.
"Godmother, I have something to tell you."
Duan Zhu saw that Long Chen's expression suddenly became serious and asked, "Chen'er, what's the matter?"
But at this moment, a mirage sound came from Long Chen's ears.
"Chen'er, regarding your adoptive father, please don't tell your adoptive mother just yet. After all, I am separated from her yin and yang. Furthermore, it is not appropriate to disclose the matter about the Void Devouring Ring to the world."
After hearing Mirage's instructions, Long Chen had no choice but to obey, so he quickly changed his words: "It's not the right time yet, godmother, I'll tell you about this later."
Duan Zhu, Yun Fengyi and others thought that what Long Chen was going to say was about his affairs with Yun'er, so they all laughed and said: "Okay, okay, we know about your affairs, so just relax."
The fact that Long Chen and Yun'er fell in love was no longer a secret in the clan, so Long Chen, Duan Zhu and the others misunderstood him, so they didn't explain too much. Sometimes it was better to pierce the layer of paper and wait until the parents of both parties approved.
In the following time, Long Chen and the clan elders supervised the defense works during the day.
"Could these be the defensive weapons developed by Uncle Gushan and the others?" Long Chen looked at the rows of large crossbows set up on the city tower and said to Long Kun on the side.
Long Kun sighed: "Gushan finally did not lose the craftsmanship left by his grandfather. It is really gratifying to use it now to defend the safety of the family."
"Uncle Gushan's grandfather?"
"Your uncle Gushan is called Long Ming. When he was young, he traveled around a lot. It is said that he went to Daxing City outside Longmen Town. He became a disciple of a weapon refiner in Daxing City and learned exquisite weapon making skills. He returned to the Long family in middle age. Bao, had a son and two grandsons, brothers Gucheng and Gushan. Later, the parents of the two brothers died in the battle between Longjiabao and Heiyunbao ten years ago, and Gushan inherited his grandfather's equipment manufacturing. craft."
"It turned out to be a drama, but now what about Senior Long Ming? Why doesn't anyone mention it?"
"Alas, let alone me, even the brothers Gucheng and Gushan don't know the whereabouts of his grandfather, or whether he is alive or dead."
While he was talking, Long Gushan walked over.
"Young Master, Elder Kun, you are here."
Long Chen said hurriedly: "Uncle Gushan, this is not in the meeting hall, just call me by my name."
Long Gushan is also an open-minded person: "Okay, then I will boldly call you Chen'er."
"Uncle Gushan, what kind of equipment is set up on this tower? It looks like a bow and arrow, but it is not a bow and arrow?"
Long Gushan said: "This is a bed crossbow. It is different from ordinary crossbows. It is an upgraded version of the crossbow. It uses a crossbow gun and an angry bed, and then uses the spring as a driving force to kill the enemy in a large area. Place it On top of the city tower, those below the fifth level of the Shaoyang Realm cannot approach the city wall."
"It's awesome. If the enemy really comes, we can just wait and see."
Long Gushan continued: "The only drawback is that this crossbow is limited by materials. If the tip of the crossbow is made of black iron or fine steel, there will be no bones left in the Red Sun Realm."
"Dark iron? Fine steel? Where can I find these raw materials?"
Long Gushan shook his head: "This kind of material is hard to come by. I have been looking for it for most of my life but I still haven't found it. However, I heard from my grandfather that black iron and fine steel are in the Longjia Fort. It's just that my uncle's eyesight is poor. So far, I haven't found it yet." I haven't found any trace of this mineral."
"Uncle Gushan, you have done a good enough job. The bed crossbow you developed can ensure the stability of our Longjia Fort for several months. As for the scarce black iron ore, how can it be so easy to find? In this way, I I will also help you inquire."
"Chen'er, with you in charge of Longjia Fort, Uncle Gushan will do his best to protect our family. You and Elder Kun, do you think there is anything else that needs to be added to this defense?"
Long Chen stood on the tower and looked around, having an idea in his mind.
"Elder Kun, Uncle Gushan, you see our Longjia Fort is backed by a mountain. Although we have made a half-year bet with Heiyun Castle, there is no guarantee that Heiyun Castle will not invade within half a year, so we have to This city wall will be further strengthened, taller and longer, and will be cast along the mountain range to protect our Longjia Fort, so that our Longjia Fort can be impregnable."
"Chen'er is right. I will send craftsmen to strengthen the city wall according to your design and then set up the bed crossbow."
"In addition, the power of Heiyun Castle is an indisputable fact, and Heiyun Castle and Laijia Fort are colluding, so at present, our Longjia Fort is in a state of life and death. To prevent unexpected events, within the past six months, we Family members should not leave the city easily unless they have to. As for production and life, they must make full use of the unique geographical conditions and open the back mountains and Longtan River to allow young people to hunt in the mountains and fish in the rivers, so as to improve food and strengthen their health. , increase income, and also open up wasteland for farming. As long as the food problem is solved, the family will not be in chaos."
The more Long Kun listened, the more he nodded and then added: "Yes, everyone must act with caution during these six months. I will go back immediately and announce the young master's opinions to the heads of each household."
Long Chen nodded: "I'll trouble Elder Kun to worry about this matter. Within half a year, our Longjia Fort will be cautious. After half a year, I guarantee that our Longjia Fort can walk openly and openly in Longmen Eighteen Forts and even outside Longmen Town." Big place.”
"Don't worry, young master."
At this time, Long Chen held a very high position in the hearts of the Longjiabao people, so with his order, everyone got busy.
