chapter Five
The shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear shop followed Li Qiang nervously, secretly begging God to worship Buddha: "My silver, Bodhisattva bless you!"
Cheng Zizhong introduced: "This is the best and largest silver building in the city, Zhao Ji Baoyin Jinjie Jin Building. Shopkeeper, don't be idle, go in and say hello."
The shopkeeper of the garment shop hurriedly ran in and shouted, "Zhao Dadang, I'm bringing you a distinguished guest. Why don't you come out to welcome me?"
"Oh, it's you, Fatty Qi, slow down, don't fall. Which distinguished guest is coming to the door." A thin and lean middle-aged man was greeted with a laugh: "Isn't this Mr. Cheng? You are always busy, why do you have time to come to the shop?" His tone was warm.
"Old monkey, can't I come and have fun?"
Cheng Zizhong also smiled and pointed at Li Qiang and said, "I brought a great customer here, why do you thank me?" He introduced to Li Qiang, "He is Zhao Degui, who is the golden building of Zhao Ji Baoyin. He is famous in Hanlin City. Everyone knows all the various religions and all kinds of people. There are silver buildings he opened in the capital." He also said, "This is Li Qiang and Li. He has just come to Hanlin for the first time. Hey, old monkey, don't invite Lord Li in."
Zhao Degui nodded and bowed, and brought the group of people into the inner hall and sat down for tea.
The master of the prefect's office was personally accompanied by it, and it was conceivable that he must be the great customer. Zhao Degui greeted him happily. The four little girls who were called sisters by Lord Li, let the inner family come out to get some snacks to accompany him to talk.
"The shop has recently made a batch of gold and silver jewelry. Has Lord Li practiced martial arts? I just entered three high-quality fairy stones from the capital. Do you have a look?"
Li Qiang nodded and placed two pieces of top-quality jade as big as a palm on the coffee table, one piece of high-quality rainbow stone and four diamonds of varying sizes. He asked, "Old Zhao, look, are these valuable?"
Cheng Zizhong saw it first, took a deep breath, and said in surprise: "The best fairy stone, jade, and gems, hey! Old monkey, look quickly." His voice changed.
Zhao Dadang was busy asking the guy to take jewelry. He was startled by Cheng Zizhong and turned his head to see the things on the coffee table. He was also stunned. After making jewelry stores for so long, he had never seen such beautiful pearls and jade.
Fatty Qi, the shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear shop, had his little eyes that were originally in a line, suddenly opened up and the greedy light flashed in his eyes. He wiped his saliva and kept muttering in his heart: "Bodhisattva, be merciful and merciful, I crawled over the financial path. I, the price I quoted is too low."
After gently tapping on the coffee table, Li Qiang coughed and laughed inwardly, "Damn it! I wasn't very excited when I got it, but just a few stones."
In fact, Li Qiang was already very rich when he was on Earth, and when he reached the Lingji stage, his demand for material things will drop rapidly. He has surpassed Lingji to reach the initial stage of the Nascent Soul Stage. Ordinary cultivators have to spend a lot of effort to restrain the temptation of material life on themselves from the Heartbeat Stage to the Lingji stage. If they fail, not only will they not be able to protect the Lingji stage, but they will also be considered in vain. They must start from the Fusion stage. Li Qiang's starting point is very high. Zi Yanxin itself is an unconscious Nascent Soul. He is equivalent to having the Nascent Soul first and then repairing the missing parts before, and his mentality will naturally change with the degree of diligence.
"Come on, please come." Zhao Degui excitedly ordered the clerk.
"He is a cultivator, a famous half-immortal, and a real backstage leader here, very powerful." Cheng Zizhong quietly told Li Qiang.
Zhao Degui picked up the Yubing Stone and said, "This is the first time I have seen this top-quality immortal stone." After looking carefully, he said, "This Yubing Stone is worth at least 100,000 taels of silver. If it is in the capital, the price will be higher."
"The old man is here." A man reported.
A tall old man walked into the house, his snow-white hair was gathered on his head, his two long eyebrows were inserted into his temples like two sharp swords that were unsheathed. The beard was neatly combed neatly with a steel needle on his wide mouth. The old man gave people a very generous feeling, and Li Qiang felt good at seeing it.
Mr. Zhao saw Li Qiang at the first glance when he entered the door. He looked no longer, staring at him, and even Cheng Zizhong's greetings seemed to have not heard.
Zhao Degui was panicked. He had never seen an old man like this. He seemed to cry or laugh, which was very strange. Zhao Degui shouted, "Dad, Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Mr. Zhao waved his hand to stop Zhao Degui and asked, "Have you 'fusion'? Well, it's not like you..." He used a respectful word, and his tone was terrifying.
Li Qiang was stunned and suddenly realized. Cheng Zizhong had just said that he was a cultivator. He smiled and said two words: "Ninth Soul."
The whole room was stunned and didn't understand what the two of them were saying.
"Pu" Mr. Zhao knelt on the ground and touched the ground with his forehead: "Please give me advice. My younger generation just "consecrated" two years ago. It seems to be stagnant recently. Please be kind to me and accept me as your disciple."
Zhao Degui was stupid. His father even knelt down and he couldn't stand. He also knelt down with a "plop". Then, a series of "plop" sounds sounded. The guy saw that the head of the house had kneeled, so he stopped standing, and he knelt down.
Li Qiang could not see this. Who would kneel down to worship living people except for worshiping ancestors and Bodhisattvas?
As soon as he stood up, there was a loud "gudong" sound beside him. Li Qiang was shocked. Who had such a loud voice, like a big bull. He looked down and saw the fat shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear shop kneeling on the ground. Li Qiang held back his smile and said, "All up, why don't I leave."
He walked to Mr. Zhao and Li Qiang went to help him. Unexpectedly, the old man was really stubborn, so he refused to get up and kept saying, "Master, merciful! Master, merciful!"
Li Qiang sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, I am compassionate, I am compassionate, get up quickly." He thought to himself, "It's not like this for the sake of cultivation." He didn't know how difficult it is to cultivate on this planet. In addition to spending energy, he also had to spend a lot of money to buy immortal stones and also had to visit the wise master. If he did not practice until the Nascent Soul stage in his lifetime, all efforts would be vain.
"Master, please sit down." Mr. Zhao said respectfully.
Li Qiang screamed in sultry: "No, no, I dare not accept you as my apprentice. You, don't kneel anymore, don't kneel, let's talk to each other, can we do it?" He thought to himself: I'm just selling some gems, but I ended up creating an apprentice who is older than my dad. How can I do it if I take it out?
Cheng Zizhong was not surprised that Mr. Zhao became a disciple. After all, it was not a shame to be a disciple. What he strangely was that Li Qiang seemed to be afraid that others would kneel down to him, and as long as he kneels down to him, he would be in a hurry.
Seeing Li Qiang refuse, he smiled and advised, "Everyone listens to me, Lord Li seems to be unwilling to accept disciples."
Li Qiang's head was like a chicken pecking at rice, and he kept saying, "Yes, yes."
"And Mr. Zhao is determined to become a disciple."
Mr. Zhao said anxiously: "Don't call me Mr. Zhao, call me Zhao Hao. Master, you must accept the disciples no matter what. The disciples are begging them devoutly." Li Qiang was so determined that his attitude was terrified.
"Then let Zhao Hao be the registered disciple of Lord Li, how about it?"
After a fierce struggle, Zhao Hao finally got his wish. This old man in his seventies became Li Qiang's first registered apprentice.
With Li Qiang's insistence, the jewelry on the coffee table was given to Zhao Hao's family as a gift, and the rainbow stone was given to Zhao Hao for cultivation. The silver building settled the garment shop account, and Li Qiang gave the cloak to Cheng Zizhong without hesitation, and picked some jewelry and other items for the four little sisters.
Li Qiang knew very well that "people harmony" is necessary anywhere.
Li Qiang only stayed in the VIP room of the prefectural office for only one night, so Li Qiang asked to move to the hotel. He didn't have any objections to Feng Kaiyun, he just wanted to learn more about the local customs and culture, but he couldn't see anything in the prefectural office.
With Cheng Zizhong's mediation, Feng Kaiyun had to agree. Before Li Qiang left, he gave Feng Kaiyun many gifts. Cheng Zizhong and the four little maids. Feng Kaiyun was a little surprised to receive the gift, and he didn't care what he gave. The important thing was to see that Li Qiang had no malice towards him.
Zhao Hao, the old apprentice, tried his best to invite Li Qiang to the Silver House. Li Qiang also wanted to rely on his experience to inquire about the situation of the Heavenly Star. At the same time, he also wanted to find a quiet place to practice some urgently needed devices, so he followed him.
Zhao Hao was so happy that he was busy in the silver building. Not only did he clean up the entire back garden, but he also specially found a few servants to serve Li Qiang. After everything was done, he followed Li Qiang closely and followed his master's teachings.
That night, Li Qiang began to practice his first weapon. When he collected the materials and tools and returned to his residence, his old apprentice Zhao Hao said that he would not leave no matter what, and must stay in the house. He drove away the servants and slaves, closed the door and stood devoutly on the side, staring at Li Qiang intently.
Li Qiang was both angry and funny, and was embarrassed to drive him away.
He first placed a defensive array in the house, activated it with true energy, and then checked it correctly, and explained how Zhao Hao entered and left, so that he could stand in the Kun position of the defensive array, because once he started practicing, the temperature in the defensive array was definitely not something Zhao Hao could resist, and only the dark corner of the Kun position would not be affected. After all preparations, he began his first practice.
Li Qiang was preparing to practice a protective gear, a crossbow, and a spear first.
All these three things were left by Fu Shan in the bracelet, but they were all semi-finished products that had taken shape, and they were still a lot short of time. Li Qiang decided to practice these three things first and accumulate some experience. After all, this was the first time for him to practice equipment.
I took off my clothes and only wore a pair of shorts. I took out the protective gear. It was a diamond-shaped arm shield, which was only thirty centimeters in size, silver-white, and had no patterns on it. Looking at Zhao Hao, I reminded him again: "Don't disturb me when I refining weapons, just look at it."
Zhao Hao's Taoist practice has not reached this stage yet, and he doesn't know how to practice, so he can't help but become nervous.
The inner armor of the starry sky emerged from Li Qiang's body, and Zhao Hao immediately understood why he wanted to take off his clothes. The shorts immediately turned into ashes, and the purple light reflected the whole room. The small silver shield was hanging in the air, and two purple flames shot out from Li Qiang's hands, burning constantly.
Zhao Hao was shocked. This is Samadhi True Fire, also known as Heart Fire. Only those who have cultivated the Nascent Soul can have such powerful true energy. He thought to himself: "It turns out that Master has already refined the Nascent Soul and is already a god."
Zhao Hao is actually ignorant. Cultivators in the cultivation world never think of themselves as gods, but there are as many cultivators who have practiced to the Nascent Soul stage. Cultivators who can cultivate to this level generally avoid secular society and go to practice alone. Moreover, the Heavenly Star is not a planet where cultivators gather, but a planet that is truly dominated by cultivators. The Fengyuan Star where Fu Shan is located is counted as one, and Li Qiang's appearance here can only be said to be an accident.
Li Qiang's spirit was completely integrated into the small silver shield. He found that the silver shield was a small protective formation with no energy in it. Because the manufacturing method was recorded in the Jade Pupil Shop, it was not difficult for him. After careful adjustment, Li Qiang began to input energy.
Since Li Qiang's foundation is purple flame heart, which belongs to fire, it is of great help to refining weapons. There are two types of refining weapons: "refining" and "heart refining", and the difference between the upper and lower parts cannot be compared. "refining" means using tools as cauldrons, and immortal stones as base fire, and using true essence to control cultivation. "heart refining" means using heaven and earth as cauldrons, and using Samadhi True Fire plus true essence to control cultivation. It is the supreme method of refining top-grade tools.
The energy gradually filled the silver shield. Li Qiang used the "Breaking Characters" to cut off the true essence, used the "Breaking Characters" to seal the formation, and used the "Breaking Characters" to make the formation flow slowly in the silver shield. Although he was not very skilled, he was still successfully completed.
Li Qiang had a sudden inspiration and decided to add another formation and an attack formation to the silver shield.
At this time, we saw the importance of storage bracelets. One by one, the immortal stones emerged from their hands and were thrown into the silver shield. They were: four water-based immortal stones used to be soft, two gold-based immortal stones used to be sharp, and one fire-based immortal stone used to be explosive. Because it was the first time to manufacture, bumps, bumps, modifications and modifications were inevitable, but they were finally completed.
After the core part was completed, Li Qiang decided to make the appearance of the silver shield look better. The first image that came to mind was "dragon". No matter what, the totem of the Chinese nation will always be rooted in the hearts of every descendant of Yan and Huang. Li Qiang felt very satisfied with using the dragon as the shield face.
It is extremely easy to use Samadhi True Fire to forge the shield surface. Whatever you think in your heart, the shield surface will become. Li Qiang then made the edge of the silver shield into flame shape, embedded some gold and silver wires as embellishment, and finally got it done.
The old apprentice Zhao Hao felt that he was very eye-opening. Although he had been to stay for seven days and seven nights, he was still very happy.
Li Qiang opened his eyes and looked at the arm shield in his hand, feeling proud of himself overflowing.
The thirty-cm silver arm shield had changed its appearance, with gold and purple in the silver color. The dragon on the shield surface raised slightly, and its teeth and claws seemed to be about to fly into the air. The flame-shaped edge of the shield seemed to be burning. Li Qiang himself was amazed and doubted: "I made such a beautiful arm shield? I can't believe it."
The arm shield in the arms raised was automatically attached to the left arm, and immediately felt that the arm shield and himself were integrated. As long as the true energy power was activated, the formation in the arm shield would be activated immediately. Li Qiang was determined to try its power, and when he saw Zhao Hao, he smiled happily.
The old apprentice Zhao Hao held his famous weapon, the Giant Wind Sword, and raised his true power for eight points, shouting: "Look at the sword!"
The giant wind knife slashed through the air, and the sharp sound of breaking through the air made my scalp numb. Li Qiangyi moved with his thoughts, and the protective array of the arm shield began to start, a purple-gold dragon full of flames surrounded him, and the attack array also started, "Table..." "Boom..."
The giant wind knife shattered.
Li Qiang secretly screamed, so he hurriedly stopped the attack formation. He grabbed Zhao Hao's collar and threw him out. "It's so dangerous! It's so dangerous! He almost finished playing. It's a joke to tell it out. The first apprentice was beaten to death by the first arm shield I made. I was dizzy!"
Zhao Hao's sword was like slashing on a steel pillar. What scared him was that the steel pillar would turn around. While the giant wind knife was shattered, the anti-shock force made his whole arms numb and bleeding from the tiger's mouth. He watched the purple gold dragon pounce on him and said to himself, "It's over." Suddenly, he felt his collar tightening and the person flew out like a cloud of fog.
Sitting on the ground, Zhao Hao was filled with emotion: "My martial arts skills are outstanding among the Three Kingdoms of the 'Green Basin'. No matter how good I am, I am a master. Master only tried a small arm shield, but I couldn't even pass a single move. If Master hadn't taken action, it would have been unimaginable!"
Li Qiang felt guilty and helped Zhao Hao up and said, "Oh, you've ruined your weapon. Let's do this. I'll make a new one to give to you, and I'll apologize to you."
The old disciple Zhao Hao was surprised and happy. The weapon given by the master must be a treasure of the immortal family. "Thank you, does your face shield have a name?" Seeing Li Qiang shook his head, he said, "I have a name in my heart. I wonder if the master likes it?"
Li Qiangqi said, "Let me tell me."
"Called 'Red Flame Dragon Shield', okay?"
Li Qiang shouted: "Okay, I like it, it's called 'Red Flame Dragon Shield', haha."
