Chapter 15
Ask for advice
It's night at Fang's Medicine Hall in Xicheng.
A figure flashed into the hall.
"Shopkeeper, Xiao Liu is probably gone. He went to chase the alchemist, but he hasn't come back for a long time."
"Unexpectedly, this alchemist is quite capable."
"Then what do we do next?"
"Don't make any noise, just act like it's nothing. If he continues to sell medicine, it means he doesn't know it was us. If he doesn't come, we don't want to provoke him.
The King of Heaven is about to leave seclusion. Before the King of Heaven comes out of seclusion, we must try our best to keep a low profile so as not to be discovered by the court."
"yes."
In the small courtyard, Shen Cong filled the last shovelful of soil under the tree and stamped it firmly with his feet.
"Remember to keep your eyes open when you are reincarnated in the next life. If you are not qualified, why should you give me your head if you have nothing to do with it?"
But let’s not talk about it, this kid has a very tough mouth. He has used all his tricks, but he just won’t open his mouth. A clerk in a medicine hall can’t have such a tough bone, right?
Forget it, anyway, I sold the spiritual liquid after I disguised myself. No one will know my identity or where I live. I will observe it secretly for a while first.
After meditating until dawn, Shen Lai came to the iron shop. Today he was going to smelt the sword and then forge it into one piece. It would probably take a whole day's work.
In order to let Shen Cong show off his skills, the manager assigned him two masters.
After finishing a delicious meal of meat buns, Shen Cong just started working. The stove was already burning brightly, and Shen Cong threw the broken sword into it.
Since the materials of the sword body itself have already been tempered to perfection, there is no need to waste excess materials for purification.
Under the scorching fire, the two pieces of broken swords quickly melted into molten iron. After cooling a little, they turned into iron blocks. Shen Cong took them out with iron pliers, picked up the sledgehammer, and used the power of the hammer to change the iron. The shape of the block.
The power of a seventh-level warrior is so terrifying. With a hammer blow, the blacksmiths can feel a slight tremor under their feet. They are even more horrified by Shen Cong's power.
It turns out that he has never used his true strength!
The forging was busy from morning to night, during which time two masters were replaced, and three hammers were even worn out.
In the process, Shen Cong discovered that he could actually practice the Ben Lei Jue mental method by running it himself.
This has never happened before. This is probably because my understanding has been upgraded to a new stage and I can do two things at once.
When ordinary people meditate and practice, they can only meditate and practice. It is impossible for them to want to do anything else.
Does this mean that I no longer need to meditate in the future? Even if I am practicing martial arts, I can also practice internal skills and mental methods at the same time.
Even if your understanding improves for a while, it will be possible for you to eat and practice at the same time, walk and practice at the same time, and even sleep and practice at the same time.
If this is the case, my cultivation speed will be faster than the people in the entire world!
I'm afraid there aren't many people in the world who can do this, right?
Perfect!
Dang~!
The last hammer fell and the moment the sword reshaped itself, the cold light flickered, shocking people's hearts.
Everyone's heartbeats slowed down. On this day, their bodies were resonating, and it was difficult for the blood and qi in their bodies to calm down.
"It's done!"
A blacksmith came to Shen Cong's side, took a look at the sword, and let out an exclamation.
"Oh, Master Shen's craftsmanship is truly amazing."
Another blacksmith hurriedly took the hammer from his hand, and Song Daqi very smartly handed him a cup of tea.
Shen Cong picked up the tea, drank it in one gulp, and said with a smile:
"The material of this iron sword is very good. You cannot sharpen it in the later stage. It must be forged in one piece. Otherwise, it will be faster."
"Only Master Shen can repair this sword."
At this moment, everyone no longer envied Shen Cong, only sincere admiration.
If people can make this kind of money, it's because they have the ability.
"Master Shen, when will we notify the customer to pick up the sword?"
"No need now, seven days is all it takes. If we give it too early, she will think we are deceiving her. After a few days, I will just bring it to her. In addition, don't tell anyone about this matter. I don't like it." Too ostentatious.”
If you want to rebuild the sword, it must be completed in one piece. There is no way to delay it and it can only be completed within one day.
But he still tried to keep a low profile. Shen never wanted to be too public, so he could only find an excuse to avoid Ruan Hongyu being too shocked and concerned.
"Don't worry, Master Shen. What you say will be an imperial edict in our iron shop."
"Master Shen, you haven't eaten for a whole day. Food and wine have been prepared for you in the backyard."
Shen Cong nodded and went to the backyard to enjoy a feast alone.
The manager is very sensible. Roast chicken, roast duck, and superior fire roast are all famous delicacies in the city.
As Shen Cong's skills improved, the blacksmith began to regard him as a treasure.
A few days later, Shen Cong personally brought the sword to Ruan Hongyu's door and knocked on the door.
The reason why he asked Ruan Hongyu to talk privately was not because he had any other thoughts, but because he wanted to take the opportunity to gain some cultivation knowledge.
His knowledge of cultivation has always been very superficial. As a dragon and phoenix guard of the Great Xia Zhenwu Division, Ruan Hongyu is well-informed, especially in martial arts. His knowledge is definitely a hundred times better than hers.
If you can absorb some of it, you can improve your martial arts path faster and avoid many detours.
"Squeak~!"
Ruan Hongyu's door was opened, her beautiful face expressionless.
"It's you."
Shen Cong forced out a smile and shook the long sword in his hand.
"I'll deliver the sword."
Ruan Hongyu took back her sword, pulled it out with a bang, and inspected it carefully. She cut off the stone pillar at the door with one sword, and the cut was extremely smooth.
"Your skills are indeed excellent. Even some blacksmiths in Kyoto cannot repair it so perfectly. You should have some foundation in cultivation."
Shen Cong nodded.
"I have learned some martial arts before, but I haven't been able to get to the top level yet."
"There is no need to belittle yourself. I think you are not too old. Even if you are not admitted, you are already quite impressive. After all, most people may not have the opportunity to be admitted in their lifetime."
After saying that, Ruan Hongyu took out four hundred-tael silver notes from her sleeves and handed them to Shen Cong.
Shen Cong only took two of them.
"What does this mean?"
Ruan Hongyu raised her eyebrows slightly, while Shen Cong cupped his fists and said:
"Shen is determined to pursue martial arts, but his qualifications are too low, so he wants to get some advice on martial arts. Miss Ruan is so young but has such a high level of cultivation. Please give me some advice."
Ruan Hongyu's eyes showed a rare hint of appreciation.
Although Shen Cong is not very young, he knows how to seize opportunities and ask for advice humbly, even at the expense of money. He is quite smart.
The dragon and phoenix guards of the Zhenwu Division cannot be said to be invincible in the world, but they are all very powerful. A few words of advice can benefit him immensely. It only costs two hundred taels, and he is not at a loss.
"In that case, I will have a few words with you."
