Zhang Hei originally wanted to refuse, but his eyes were fixed on the black soil of the netherworld, and he couldn't move away for a while.
Guan Hong continued to stroke his beard.
Liu Er stared at the black and yellow mother stone, coughed, and said: "Little friend Ning Zhuo is interested. To be honest, I am worried that I am about to go to the battlefield, but there is no weapon at my disposal. This black and yellow mother stone is at the Yuan Ying level.
, it can be used as the main material of weapons."
Ning Zhuo laughed and put the black and yellow mother stone directly into Liu Er's hand: "General Liu, I heard that Jin Li, the great master craftsman of Liangzhu Kingdom, was dispatched to Canglin Fairy City half a month ago."
"It's just a thin piece of wood, given to General Liu to serve the country, it's just the best use of it."
"This boy from the Ning family is good at talking!" Liu Er felt very satisfied and nodded slightly, looking at Ning Zhuo with a strong look of appreciation.
After receiving the treasure, he immediately promised: "Okay, little friend Ning Zhuo has the merit of presenting the treasure. When we form an army, I will definitely have a place for you."
Ning Zhuo was overjoyed and quickly handed over his hand, saying that it was an honor for the younger generation to join the three generals and that he could avenge his family. The three generals were all Ning Zhuo's benefactors.
Since he is a benefactor, he also invites the other two generals to accept this gift in return.
Zhang Hei was much more straightforward than Guan Hong. He directly put away the Netherworld Black Soil and patted Ning Zhuo on the shoulder: "Good boy, Mr. Zhang accepts your love. Let's drink together from now on!"
Guan Hong narrowed her eyes, put away the Blood Demon Stone, nodded to Ning Zhuo, and recognized Ning Zhuo as a junior foundation builder from the bottom of her heart.
Ning Zhuo said: "Today, the three in Liyuan are sworn brothers. It is truly a blessing for the younger generation to witness such an elegant event."
"The three generals working together will be a blessing to the country."
"How about adding to your joy today, how about going straight to Master Jinli to order weapons?"
Liu Er nodded: "That's fine."
So, the three golden elixirs took Ning Zhuo and quickly headed to the weapon refining workshop.
When Jin Li saw these three treasures, he looked at them carefully and his eyes shone: "Good materials, in the Yuanying series, the quality is excellent, and they are definitely top-notch."
Such a high evaluation made Liu, Guan, and Zhang look at Ning Zhuo again.
"The three of you are all golden elixirs. Since you want to join the army, according to the task assigned to me by the imperial court, I will create a magic weapon for each of you three for free."
Jinli's tone was more casual.
This is all because his cultivation level is higher than that of Liu Guan and Zhang, reaching the level of Nascent Soul.
Liu Er was already prepared and handed over a blueprint of the "Xuanhuang Sword" weapon.
Zhang Hei fumbled for a moment from his storage belt and took out a portion, which was a black snake spear.
But Guan Hong had no such plan.
Jinli gave him a list of weapons and asked him to choose.
Guan Hong flipped through it and selected the Blood Dragon Knife.
Jinli then carefully asked the three people about their usage habits, and personally measured their palms, heights and other dimensions.
During the conversation, Jin Li specifically asked: "These three treasures of yours are of amazing quality. Can you tell me the source?"
Liu Guanzhang did not hide anything and recommended Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhuo couldn't interrupt before. Jin Li was not only a Yuanying monk, but also a master craftsman of the Liangzhu dynasty. He had a sense of arrogance of his own.
At this moment, when he learned that Ning Zhuo had brought out three treasures, which were as high as the Nascent Soul level, and sent them directly to each other, he couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
"Ningjia, the Fire Persimmon Immortal City of Nandou Country?" After Ning Zhuo reported his family status, Jinli kept the power of the Ning family firmly in his heart.
In his opinion, to be able to provide such wealth to a young foundation-building boy who is traveling abroad, the Ning family must have outstanding strength and deep family background.
Jin Li looked kindly at Ning Zhuo and said, "Little friend Ning Zhuo, if you still have treasures of this kind and appearance, you might as well sell them to me."
"I am the great craftsman of the Liangzhu Kingdom, and I will not treat you badly."
"There is nothing wrong with buying your precious materials at a price that is 20% higher than the market price."
Ning Zhuo smiled: "I am lucky to be appreciated by Master Jin. I will keep your instructions in mind. If you want to sell treasures in the future, Master Jin's place will definitely be your first choice!"
Jin Li laughed when he heard this: "Little friend, if you say so, there must be some treasure. You might as well take it out and let me have a look."
Ning Zhuo took out several treasures.
Zhang Hei was very surprised when he saw it.
Guan Hong narrowed her eyes.
Liu Er regretted more and more in his heart: "This boy Ning Zhuo is actually so rich. He only builds a foundation, but he possesses so many Yuanying treasures. I have only seen him in my life."
Then he thought: "The Ning family must be a wealthy family. As the son of the Ning family, Ning Zhuo must have a high status. He travels abroad and carries a lot of treasures. He must have a strong protector or a trump card to protect his life."
"Since he has a Nascent Soul-level treasure, it is very likely that his protection methods are also as high as the Nascent Soul level."
Thinking of this, Liu Er wanted to slap himself on the head.
What happened then?
There are only three people who have become sworn brothers in a pear garden, which is not pretty.
How nice it would be to take Ning Zhuo with you!
Liu Er thought to himself: "If Ning Zhuo were the fourth brother, how could I only get a black and yellow mother stone?"
Jin Li looked at these treasures, his eyes shone, and he tried to soften his tone and put on a smile: "Little friend Ning Zhuo, I want to discuss with you. Can you sell all of these to me?"
As a master craftsman, Jinli has a natural desire for high-quality materials.
Nowadays, he has an important responsibility and is sent by the imperial court to the Canglin Fairy City to be responsible for the creation of high-end weapons and magic weapons. Therefore, he is even more thirsty for these high-end and high-quality treasures, and the demand is huge.
Ning Zhuo thought for a moment, picked out only three items, and then handed over to Master Jinli. He stated that these Nascent Soul level treasures he had in his possession this time were not for his own use, but were brought to another big force.
, to conduct transactions.
"However, trading in Canglin Fairy City, especially trading with Master Jin, is also my Ning family's honor, and it is my honor!"
"It's just that you have to leave some of it behind so that when the boy arrives at his destination in the future, he can have some goods for trading. This will make it easier for him to return to the family for business."
Ning Zhuo's excuse came out of his mouth and was very natural.
Liu Guan, Zhang and others heard this and nodded secretly, thinking it was reasonable.
Jin Li was even more certain that Ning Zhuo had a powerful trump card to protect him, or there must be a protector following him secretly.
Although Jinli was a little regretful that he didn't buy them all, it was better than nothing.
Such an unexpected surprise really made him feel happy.
As soon as he was happy, he said to Ning Zhuo: "Little friend, although you and I have met for the first time, we are very close to each other. You might as well go to my private treasury, pick a weapon and go."
Jinli wants to form a good relationship.
His purpose is very simple, that is, he wants to do more and longer-term business with Ning Zhuo and even the Ning family.
Ning Zhuo quickly handed over his hand to express his gratitude.
This was also an unexpected surprise for him.
Jinli stretched out his hand and the wall dented and moved sideways, revealing a secret door.
Ning Zhuo entered the secret door and saw several shelves.
Good guy.
There are all kinds of weapons on this shelf. Axes, axes, hooks, guns, knives, forks, swords and halberds, there is a dazzling array of them, almost everything you need.
Ning Zhuo was a little indifferent to this.
"Although I worked hard to practice close combat in Wanyao Sect, I only practiced fists and kicks to make up for my shortcomings, but did not learn how to use weapons. Let alone such long weapons."
"Besides, I don't have any eyesight on the battlefield. I don't want to risk a close fight. It's safest to cast a spell to fight from a distance."
As a result, Ning Zhuo's selection range was suddenly reduced to the extreme, from hundreds of items to only three items.
The first piece is a drum. The drum head is not made of ordinary leather, but a thin layer of dark silver metal with multiple thunder and lightning talismans engraved on it. It is called the Golden Thunder Drum.
The second piece is a ring that always emits a layer of dazzling golden light, called the Blade Ring.
The third piece is an iron fan half as tall as a man. The fan surface is made of leather and is called the iron thorn fan.
After Ning Zhuo inspected them carefully, he was not satisfied with the three weapons.
The Golden Thunder Drum looks like a magic weapon, but it is actually a weapon, used to hit people. When it is hit, the talisman on the drum surface is stimulated and a strong electric current is released.
The sharp blade ring and the iron thorn fan are both hand-held. The former is used for cutting and is a strange-shaped dagger. The latter is similar to a weapon such as a stick. After hitting the target, iron thorns will form and penetrate deeper into the enemy's body.
at.
Ning Zhuo didn't want to get into a close combat on the battlefield.
Before that, he would try his best to retreat and distance himself to avoid falling into such a dilemma.
Although Ning Zhuo has not specifically practiced the art of war, thanks to the foundation laid during the Ning family school and the vision brought by extensive reading, he knows that there is a big difference between battlefield battles and individual battles.
One of the most important differences is coordination.
On the battlefield, cooperation is most important. Once there is cooperation, it means that individual monks must make use of their strengths and avoid their weaknesses.
"My current strength in combat is the Five Elements realm and the Five Elements spells."
"Fighting from afar is my mainstream style of play."
"As for getting close, I have to use my comrades to protect me and try to avoid it as much as possible."
This is also one of the reasons why Ning Zhuo chose Liu Er, Guan Hong, and Zhang Hei. These three golden elixir monks all have obvious physical attainments.
Obviously, the three of them are good at close combat.
Ning Zhuo took the iron fan and left the warehouse.
When they parted, Jin Li specially gave Ning Zhuo a token and said, "If little friend Ning Zhuo has any treasures to sell, just use this token to clear the way and you can see me directly."
Ning Zhuo looked overjoyed, thanked him quickly, and put the token away.
Liu, Guan, and Zhang all showed more or less envious expressions.
Everyone can see that a magic weapon-level iron fan is far less valuable than a small token. This is because this token, to a certain extent, represents the relationship with the Nascent Soul-level master craftsman Jin Li.
relation.
Seeing Ning Zhuo put away the token, Liu, Guan, and Zhang all realized that they could no longer treat Ning Zhuo as an ordinary foundation-building monk.
Putting aside everything else, just talking about this relationship, if the weapons of the three of them need to be repaired in the future, it would be best if they could contact Jin Li again through Ning Zhuo and ask the latter to take action.
Liu Er took Guan Hong and Zhang Hei to the city lord's mansion and successfully obtained three general seals of guerrilla generals.
The city lord's palace arranged the location of their camp in the west of the city, and provided them with hundreds of high-grade spiritual stones, ordinary wood, tents and other materials.
Of course, these supplies are very small and have only symbolic meaning.
If you want to set up camp and build a decent camp, you have to pay for it yourself.
Liu Er sighed: "Next, we will recruit troops from outside. This camp must be decent, otherwise it will be too simple and will be disliked by the majority of monks. At least, it must be better than Honghua Camp."
Guan Hong stroked his beard and remained silent. He was only slightly richer than Liu Er. According to the normal standards of a Jindan monk, he was extremely poor.
Zhang Hei then said: "I am quite wealthy."
Ning Zhuo also said: "Young man can also contribute a small sum of money, so I have done my best."
With the help of the two of them, Liu Er purchased basic supplies and set up camp.
He first chose a hill as the camp address.
The terrain is higher, which is easier for observation and reconnaissance arrays. Avoiding low-lying wetlands can also prevent the spread of moisture and diseases to a certain extent.
There is a small river on the back of the hill. It is a natural water source and can save a lot of daily expenses.
Although this was the rear, Liu Er was meticulous and still arranged three magic formations.
One is the Sky Light Reflection Array, which is placed on the outermost perimeter and is used for reconnaissance and surveillance of the surrounding area.
The second one is the Iron Wall and Copper Wall Formation. Once activated, the iron and copper walls can be raised in a short time, greatly increasing the defense of the entire wooden camp.
The third one is the seven-star chain array, which can contact all the monks in the camp. On the one hand, it can be used for communication, which is very convenient. On the other hand, it can also be used with many buffing spells to evenly distribute the spell power to all the monks in the camp.
personnel.
After setting up the three-layer magic circle, it is time to set up the camp.
The camp is roughly circular, with the three generals' tents in the center. Surrounding it are the guards' camps, which are currently empty. Liu Er, Guan Hong and Zhang Hei all joined the army alone.
Outside the guard camp, there are tents for ordinary soldiers. Usually, they are divided according to military types. Currently, these are empty.
After the camp is set up, wooden fences, horses and other obstacles are arranged.
According to Liu Er's plan, he still had to dig a trench. However, it would be a bit embarrassing to do it himself. Anyway, it was safer in the rear. Therefore, the trench digging was arranged at the back, waiting for the additional soldiers to come in, and then use it.
They dig.
After most of the camp was established, Zhang Hei and Ning Zhuo began to exert their efforts. They posted notices in Canglin Fairy City to promote and recruit.
The response was very enthusiastic.
"Have you heard? The conditions for recruiting the Third General Battalion are that all spoils of war go to the monks personally."
"Yeah! In this way, we conquer Qianfeng Forest and loot along the way, and the benefits will be unimaginable."
"Not even the Barbarian Demon Camp has such good conditions!"
"But the three commanders are all at the Golden Core level, not the Nascent Soul level..."
"How do you compare it with Red Flower Camp?"
"Hmm? Thinking about it this way, the Third General Camp is really a good place to go!"
A large number of monks poured into the Third General's Camp.
The originally empty camp gradually began to show signs of people.
A few days later, most of the camp had been filled.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Liu Er summoned all personnel and formally determined many subordinates and positions.
He appointed himself as the general, Guan Hong as the second general, Zhang Hei as the third general, and Ning Zhuo... offered wine to the military advisor.
That's it for Liu Guan and Zhang. After all, they are in the Golden Elixir series.
But how could Ning Zhuo become a military advisor if he only built his foundation? Such a position is seemingly second only to the three generals, but in fact, its power is on par with the second and third generals.
Some people are dissatisfied.
On the spot, many people made a loud noise and questioned the appointment.
Liu Er's face darkened and he was about to speak.
Ning Zhuo stood up with a smile.
Mu Xing - The tree world has arrived!
Click and wipe...
In a few breaths, towering trees grew out, with vine branches like dragons and pythons, occupying the entire site.
Countless monks fell on their backs.
Mu Xing - Death-killing flowers bloom.
The next moment, a large number of flower buds grew one after another on the vines and tree roots.
After one breath, these flower buds swelled with the wind. After the second breath, they bloomed one after another.
The petals are extremely sharp, like countless sharp blades, floating in the air.
Occasionally it rubbed on the monk's body and immediately drew a bleeding line.
A large number of monks hurriedly dodged, and some put up their defenses, making them very embarrassed.
Ning Zhuo had no expression on his face and stood on the general stage with his hands behind his back: "Now, who else is against it?"
He spoke softly, and Hua Yu, under the influence of the magic, resounded clearly throughout the audience and echoed in everyone's ears.
For a moment, the panic and noise of people fell silent.
Liu, Guan, and Zhang changed their expressions and looked Ning Zhuo up and down.
Liu Er gradually smiled.
Guan Hong stroked his beard with gentle movements.
Zhang Hei raised his head and burst out laughing.
In the forest, many foundation-building monks showed off their skills, hiding in tree trunks or standing on branches. They looked back at Ning Zhuo with fear on their faces. No objections were raised.
Ning Zhuo.
Chapter completed!
