Zhang Yan is busy refining weapons, and the three children at home spend almost all day together. Even Yang Rui has become a frequent visitor to Zhang Yan's house. He usually comes at dawn and leaves after dark.
The three kids don't do anything else together. They either follow Wang Nian, the registered senior brother, and run out to fight with other kids in the alleys. The goal is to become the little bully of the three streets!
Either the three children were forced by Zhang Yan to stand against the wall with a water ladle on their head, and whoever spilled water on his head would have to enjoy a cup of tea with a golden hoop.
Or the three kids were sitting at their desks writing fast, scratching their heads and ears from time to time.
Anyway, Zhang Yan was already dissatisfied with the house he had lived in for just over a year. Too crowded.
On the one hand, the three children are noisy, and on the other hand, the home lacks secret rooms and warehouses where things can be stored. In addition, my sister-in-law Wang Qin is already pregnant. She will be three months old in two months, so she is stable. Wang Lanping wants to take her back and take care of her. Even if the house is small, it can’t be moved around.
I asked someone to introduce me to a larger house. It was four to five times bigger than the one Zhang Yan lives in now, and the price was not cheap. It was resold from third hand. This kind of big house in the city had no housing available before, so it was a "not for sale" thing in the city. However, after the huge earthquake in Langyuan City's officialdom, such top-notch mansions became popular in the world. Then after changing hands several times, it finally increased several times, and then fell into the hands of Zhang Yan.
Is it expensive? Of course it is very expensive. It can be converted into the big weapons that Zhang Yan sells. One handle is enough, and there is still a surplus.
Recently, news about the magic weapon "Zhan Feng" in Zhou Cang's hand spread out. Even though Zhou Cang is the city guard of a city, he is still very annoyed by the nuisance attached to this news. Especially if the famous masters in the military handed it over, it would be very rare for Zhou Cang to be able to take the magic weapon and send it out without mercy.
As a result, the news about the magic weapon also pushed up the price of weapons forged by Zhang Yan. Of course, as Zhang Yan's level of weapon refining continued to improve, the lower limit of the magical weapons he could refine was also unconsciously raised. Nowadays, even the magic weapons that Zhang Yan takes out for sale can be infinitely close to the level of low-grade magic weapons. In the name of the Desolate Heaven Territory, it is a "sub-divine weapon".
When you buy a house, you don’t move in immediately. Someone needs to be found to clean it up. Some of the household items that need to be added need to be added, and those that need to be replaced need to be replaced.
However, Wang Lanping still had a lot of opinions about moving to a new home. She felt that her second son was becoming more and more lavish in spending money. But after being taken to watch an auction of weapons by Zhang Yan, Wang Lanping was no longer stubborn. She is just used to saving, not really stubborn.
Zhang Yan spent three days delivering ten freshly baked ghost-catching bells to the people in the Special Cases Division, and at the same time got back three first-edition ghost-catching bells filled with ghost objects. This time, the ghosts in the bell were not separated by Zhang Yan, but were all saved by himself in exchange for merit aura.
He has plans regarding Merit Reiki and his three students. Unless he recognized that the progress of Wang Nian and the others in enlightenment exceeded their cultivation, he would let Wang Nian and the others save ghosts. Even transcending ghosts can serve as a test for them when they walk around the world in the future.
But even if they can't rely on the spiritual energy of merit and the help of heaven and earth to improve their cultivation by leaps and bounds like Zhang Yan, none of the three children is simple, they are all talented people. No one is said to be slow in practice.
Among the three children, Wang Nian is currently at the early stage of the Qi-Entraining Realm, and with the help of spirit stones, there are already signs that he is approaching the middle stage of the Qi-Entraining Realm. Next is Yang Rui, who has completed the first rotation of the Dantian Qi mass a few days ago, and is just around the corner to achieve the Qi Entrainment state.
Liu Rui, who entered last, was the one who surprised Zhang Yan the most among the three. Secretly sighing at the powerful inertia of talent, the progress of practice has been astonishingly fast from the beginning. Basically, you can learn the breathing technique once you learn it, and you can replace your daily breathing method in less than half a month. This is even more concessions than Zhang Yan did at the beginning.
Moreover, Liu Rui is not only very fast and smooth in the art of cultivation, but also has a smart mind that puts Zhang Yan to shame.
When Yang Rui learned acupuncture points, he had already shocked Zhang Yan and called him a genius, but Liu Rui actually memorized it after teaching it three times. Moreover, Liu Rui was still illiterate and relied on forced memorization. Up to now, Zhang Yan is still teaching her literacy and arithmetic.
So let’s take a look at this round. Wang Nian, the most naughty kid, now has a new label “the stupidest kid”.
After a period of time, Zhang Yan started refining the ghost-catching bells on a regular basis in Langyuan City, as well as replacing and transcending them, and releasing more soul-catching bells at the same time. Over and over again, Zhang Yan's cultivation speed, which had been slow for a long time, finally ushered in a window of rapid growth again. Although the barrier to the middle stage of Guishen Realm is still far away, if he keeps it up like this, Zhang Yan feels that he will be able to make another breakthrough in a few years.
At noon that day, Zhang Yan had just finished the day's classes at the Miscellaneous Academy and was about to lead his three children back to the city. However, he met Luo Changshan in a rare opportunity. Luo Changshan called him to the tea room at the back, saying that he had something to say.
Counting time, Zhang Yan met Luo Changshan just before going to Yuanding Imperial City. He heard that Luo Changshan had been busy building a Mongolian school. It seems that he heard what Zhang Yan said to him last time. However, it is not possible to see the effect overnight, but once it starts to take effect, it will be continuous. It is definitely worth the long-term investment of the miscellaneous studies.
Zhang frowned slightly when he saw Luo Changshan. Not only did the old man look tired, but he also seemed to have aged a lot in just two months.
"Senior Luo, I haven't seen you for a while, why are you so haggard?"
"Hahaha, I'm an old man. I can't bear it anymore. I'm tired. I won't be surprised if I don't do the work of building a school during this period. There are too many things in it, too complicated, and it involves compilation and enlightenment. It’s really a lot of hard work to read the miscellaneous books. But if I can see the results, it’s worth it even if my old bones are broken!”
Zhang Yan didn't know how to answer the call. If the miscellany lineage can really rise in the future, people like Luo Changshan who have sincerely devoted their lives to this matter will definitely take the greatest credit. I just don't know if Luo Changshan will be able to see that day with his physical condition.
"Senior, you can leave the hard work to the young people below and take control of the overall situation yourself. After all, your health is important. You are a treasure to the miscellaneous school lineage and you can't afford to lose it!"
"Mr. Zhang's words are overrated, really overrated. When it comes to the "treasure of miscellaneous studies", Mr. Zhang is the one. Not to mention that this academy only relies on his reputation to survive, let's talk about the Meng Academy we built this time. It was only after sir mentioned it over and over again that I came up with it. Compared to sir, I can only do errands."
"Senior, you can't say that..."
After some pleasantries, Luo Changshan talked about the reason for looking for Zhang Yan today.
"Mr. Zhang, we sent some people to Xiyuan County according to your suggestion, and helped the army purchase several kinds of ordnance. The effect was unexpectedly good. It was also successfully adopted by the general manager of the West Road Military Road. Now it has been There are more than ten people who are serving in the army although they are unorganized.
However, the situation in Xiyuan County has become increasingly difficult recently. We are worried that once the defense line collapses, the loss of personnel will be huge. But if we withdraw now, all our previous efforts will be in vain.
Sir, you are wise, do you have any opinions on this matter? "
