Chapter 61 Gathering troops into formation
Lu Changsheng and Xu Lixia first found an inn, washed up and then had a good meal. Finally, when they were full and had enough food, Lu Changsheng asked the waiter which was the best blacksmith shop in Qingshui Town.
"Customer, when it comes to the most famous blacksmith shop in Qingshui Town, of course, is the Lianfenghao. The nearby counties are all very good. The iron master of the Lianfenghao is famous for his skills. Even in the provincial capital, someone has hired the iron master to build weapons." The waiter said proudly.
"Oh, that iron master must be good at craftsmanship." Lu Changsheng's eyes lit up and he nodded slightly.
He was also afraid that the blacksmith shop in Qingshui Town could only produce iron tools such as sickles and hoes. Since it could make weapons, it means that the master of the blacksmith shop had two brushes in his hand.
As for more, you need to go and check it out in person. Most of the rumors are false and exaggerated.
Qingshui Town is not big, and Lianfeng is quite famous. Lu Changsheng quickly found the location of Lianfeng.
“What do guests need?”
When the shopkeeper Lianfeng saw Lu Changsheng and Xu Lixia, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly came out.
Lu Changsheng and Xu Lixia both dressed and had extraordinary temperaments. They were also foreigners, so they were obviously big customers.
Lu Changsheng glanced at the swords placed around him, and they all seemed to be good. He asked Xu Lixia, "How is it?"
Xu Lixia pulled out a long sword, waved it a few times, and said in surprise: "Yes, it's a good product. Only a few such weapons can be forged in Shanghai."
When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately became more careful.
Lu Changsheng nodded. He didn't need to buy a sword this time, just fine ones are fine.
Because these swords are equipped with spiritual corpses!
After the royal zombies were refined into spiritual corpses, they had spells, but they were not the thunder-type spells that Lu Changsheng thought, but were similar to the secret technique of military affairs, called "Gathering Army to Formation".
This spell allows royal zombies to transform twenty-four spiritual corpses into their own guard soldiers, obey his command, and form a small military formation. Moreover, those spiritual corpses can also be equipped with weapons and armor, and will not be corroded by Yin Qi and Corpse Qi, and will be integrated with the spiritual corpses, just like copper armor corpses.
This made Lu Changsheng feel a little happy.
Originally, he was considering letting the spirit corpse command the spirit corpse, but now this trend is already there.
Although only twenty-four spiritual corpses can be recruited now, as the cultivation level of the royal zombies increases, the number of people recruited will increase.
For this reason, Lu Changsheng specially named the royal zombies "General Ling"!
Now General Ling has selected twenty-four most powerful ones from more than a hundred wooden corpses, that is, they have no weapons and armor, so Lu Changsheng came to the blacksmith shop to buy weapons.
"Shopkeeper, do you have armor here for sale?" Lu Changsheng asked.
"Armor?"
The shopkeeper was a little confused. This was the Republic of China era. Who else was wearing armor? Isn’t that the target of guns?
However, although he was confused, the shopkeeper had good businessman qualities: "Guest, we don't have ready-made armor here, but we can build any armor. You can do whatever kind of armor, but I don't know how much the guests need?"
Lu Changsheng frowned slightly: "How long does it take for ordinary iron armor to have twenty-four pairs and high-end armor to have twenty-four pairs?"
"Big business!"
The shopkeeper was happy and then had a headache: "Customer, it is impossible to build these armors without ten days and half a month, and it even takes more time."
"No, it's been too long."
Lu Changsheng shook his head and gave up his thoughts: "Shopkeeper, get me twelve battle knives and twelve iron shields, and four strong bows, four hundred feather arrows, and eight spears. Can it be done?"
If it weren't for the urgent time, this little thing would be a slight thing for Lu Ji, and there wouldn't be so much trouble.
Now it seems that other things can be purchased temporarily, and Xu Fu will find a way to send them here.
If these weapons were pushed forward for more than ten years, let alone ordinary blacksmith shops, I am afraid that the government would send people to come as soon as we get the news.
However, although the world seems to be unified now, the warlords are divided in various places, and the laws in many places are different. Moreover, the army now uses guns and cannons, and cold weapons have almost completely withdrawn from the battlefield.
Therefore, although the shopkeeper was puzzled about what Lu Changsheng bought some cold weapons for, he agreed without saying a word.
The world is in chaos and business is not easy to do, so every business is extremely important, which is related to whether they can fill their stomachs.
Especially big customers like Lu Changsheng.
While serving tea to Lu Changsheng and Xu Lixia, the shopkeeper urged the guys under his command to bring the things up. The swords, shields and spears are both ready-made. Although there are few strong bows, there are also blacksmith shops.
After all, some young masters from some wealthy families don’t like to use guns and even if they like to use bows and arrows, so blacksmith shops are naturally indispensable.
Then, the shopkeeper seemed to suddenly think of something and said to Lu Changsheng: "Customer, please wait a moment, I'll ask our boss, maybe he has the armor of the past."
Lu Changsheng's eyes lit up slightly: "Shopkeeper please take care of yourself. As long as the armor is intact, it's okay to have a little old or new."
Anyway, it is used for spiritual corpses. After the spiritual corpses are equipped with themselves, both new and old, they are the same.
The shopkeeper's accused him and left in a hurry.
Seeing the shopkeeper leaving, Lu Changsheng picked up the teacup and took a sip, then looked at Xu Lixia: "How about these weapons?"
"All are pretty good. Obviously, the skills of the Feng Refining are also inherited." Xu Lixia nodded.
It’s a pity that she doesn’t use weapons herself, otherwise she would want to buy one or two weapons.
The shopkeeper came out in a short while, and a burly man was next to him.
"Guest, this is our boss's iron master." The shopkeeper quickly introduced Lu Changsheng.
Master Tie looked at Lu Changsheng and said in a deep voice: "The guest wants armor?"
"No, I wonder if there is any here for Master Tie?" Lu Changsheng nodded to Master Tie and said lightly.
"Yes, there are, but the armor has been built for more than ten years. However, it is very well maintained. There is no rust or insect damage on the armor. I don't know if the guests want it."
"As long as it is not damaged, I don't care if it's older."
"Okay, there are twenty-five pairs of armor here. Guests are generous, and I can't be stingy. All armor and weapons are 20% off."
"Haha, thank you very much for Master Tie."
"You're welcome."
