Floating life is just like the water under the ice, and people don't know about the eastward flow day and night.

It's May 2019, and Zhao Lifan has been working in Ethiopia for almost three years, and he still lives in that courtyard.

It's just that Yang Changgen, who used to come often, hasn't come much for nearly two years, he and Rowling moved to Yasbarbes in September 17, and occasionally comes back to Zhao Lifan to relax, after all, Yang Changgen has taken over the Dharma Protector Hall, and he is usually busy.

Zhao Lifan, who was meditating in the courtyard, suddenly opened his eyes, and a mini spear the thickness of a needle shot out of the black bamboo with the small head of a chopstick hanging from his neck and the fish pendant.

I saw that the mini spear was growing in the wind in mid-air, and it soon turned into a golden-body dragon-patterned blue-tipped spear more than two meters long and the thickness of Xiao Er's arm.

The body of this gun is golden, two meters long, two golden dragons on the upper plate are intertwined with each other, at the end of the two dragon heads protrude to both sides, between the dragon heads arch guard the cyan gun head, 40 centimeters long, the connection between the gun head and the gun body is engraved with "Nian Ling" two small seals.

Zhao Lifan got up and held the spear standing in the air, and then the thunder and lightning on the body of the spear were filled, the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, the crane chirped and the deer roared, and Zhao Lifan began to practice the Seven Emotions Lightning Gun.

At this time, the Seven Emotions Lightning Spear had already integrated all the moves of the Nine Sword Cracks of Thunder into it, and it had become a mature set of top-level martial arts, according to Yang Changgen's words, this was the only set of top-level martial arts he knew, although only two moves involved four meridians.

And this spear that only appears in mythological stories is the Ruyi Bing Nian Ling spear refined by Zhao Lifan with crown gold and Qingxuan sword.

Zhao Lifan began to study the runes since he got the inheritance of the basic runes of the Great Dao in the Sun Chasing Clan, and later Merlin left his experience in studying the acquired runes to him, which made Zhao Lifan's understanding and drawing of runes improve by leaps and bounds, and the success rate of Ruyi Soldier runes also increased from a few days to a few a day, and even dozens of successes.

When he went home for the Chinese New Year this year, Zhao Lifan had completed the first stage of the Ruyi Soldier's nine rune drawings, and after more than a year of exploration, he found that although the crown gold was very good, it was far inferior to the Qingxuan Sword as a weapon blade, not only lamenting that the loss of the Heavenly Dao was more than enough to make up for the shortcomings.

After Liu Shiling heard Zhao Lifan's emotion, he asked him why he didn't put the Qingxuan sword back into the furnace and Duan Cheng made the spear head of the spear. Liu Shiling's words suddenly made Zhao Lifan jump out of the dead end, and this is why he has this golden body and blue spear.

After having the idea of forging, Zhao Lifan and Liu Shiling came to Li Mei's second uncle's factory again and found Dr. Wang Changqin, who had perfected the alloy formula given by Zhao Lifan a year ago, and created a very beautiful spear for Zhao Lifan.

Wang Changqin almost jumped up after seeing the crown gold, she told Zhao Lifan that this crown gold forging cold weapon may not be very suitable, but it is definitely much better than the previous fish pendant metal for industrial development, and under her strong request, she intercepted the egg-sized crown gold for her to study.

With the help of the latest equipment in Wang Changqin's laboratory, Zhao Lifan quickly cast the spear, and there was still a large piece of crown gold left, but Zhao Lifan had already planned, he also wanted to create a strange weapon for Liu Shiling, such as Nezha Chaotian Aya.

It turned out that Liu Shiling got a nine-section whip from a martial arts instructor in Xiangjiang, which was really rare.

But Liu Shiling doesn't like weapons, otherwise Zhao Lifan would have taught her eight steps and thirteen guns, but he used a silk scarf tied with a sweater chain on both sides to practice this whip method decently, which also gave Zhao Lifan inspiration.

If it was before, he really couldn't help it, but with the Colored Refining Spider Silk Capsule that Merlin gave him, everything would be solved. Zhao Lifan introduced the mucus in the silk sac into a vacuum container, and then melted the crown gold and poured it into it.

The high-temperature crown gold melt absorbs the useful part of the mucus, and the other substances turn into black ash, Zhao Lifan smelts again to remove the impurities inside, pulls it into a filament, and then weaves it into a silk scarf with crown gold.

The golden silk scarf is embroidered with two golden phoenixes with crown gold silk, and the two seal characters "Sifan" are embroidered on one side of the silk scarf. Wang Changqin touched the silk scarf made of crown gold, except for the weight, there was no trace of metal, soft and silky.

In the end, in Wang Changqin's faint eyes, Zhao Lifan had no choice but to leave the remaining colored refining spider silk sac and crown gold leftovers in the laboratory.

After returning home, Zhao Lifan began to engrave the acquired runes obtained by the Ri Cha clan on the newly formed equipment, and he was ready to engrave the three runes of the Liantong Talisman, the Speed Fu and the Sharp Fu, and refined the two Ruyi soldiers into a third-order rune soldier, as for the high-level rune soldiers, he didn't think that the level of the runes of the Ri Cha Clan was so high, and the highest was the third-order rune soldiers.

The refining of the talisman is different from refining the crowned golden lotus seed in the day-chasing clan at that time, the crowned golden lotus seed is round and integrated, and the rune only requires accessibility, and there is no requirement for the position and field force of the running energy in the rune, and the flying boat and other technological products of the day-chasing clan are also based on this principle.

However, the runes are different, the runes not only require smoothness, but also maximize the field power of the energy, and also pay special attention to the position, such as sharp runes, if the position of the rune energy is slightly deviated, the blade and the rune field force are not in the same direction, it will only backfire, and the runes have to be invalidated, so the refining difficulties of the runes are abnormal.

However, Zhao Lifan will not be presumptuous, he has the inheritance of the Great Dao Basic Rune, and has studied the Merlin Rune experience for more than a year, at this time, his Rune Skill is not lower than the three Rune Masters of the Sun Chasing Clan at that time, after all, the height he stands on is not comparable to them.

The rune inscription of the Nian Ling gun was very smooth, and soon the three acquired rune inscriptions were successful and became a third-order rune soldier, but when it came to Si Fan Aya, there was a problem, and the third sharp rune inscription failed, and it became a second-order rune soldier, but fortunately, the role of the sharp rune was not obvious to Si Fan Aya.

Then it is to draw the solid rune of the Ruyi soldier with a rune, and with the last rune taking shape, there seems to be a mysterious sound between heaven and earth, and a wave of energy fluctuations converges from heaven and earth, Zhao Lifan is too familiar with it, it is the aura that Yin and Yang beads absorb all the time.

In the end, Zhao Lifan drew the sacrificial rune, he and Liu Shiling respectively dropped blood on the Nian Ling spear and Si Fan Aya, and the two weapons between the two seemed to have a mysterious connection with the two, not only like the arm and finger, but also can be changed at will according to the two people's minds.

Zhao Lifan thought of his original slub syringe, and troubled Dr. Wang Changqin to find some jet-black metal for himself, cast a slub pendant, and hung it with the fish pendant.

The metal bamboo is inlaid with yin and yang beads, and the interior is hollow, turning into a needle-sized Nian Ling gun that can be tightly packed into the bamboo joint, and there is a shrapnel buckle inside, which can be controlled by the divine envoy.

Unlike Zhao Lifan's carefully prepared holster for Nian Ling's gun, Liu Shiling also couldn't put it down for Si Fan Aya, but she didn't put it up, but made it smaller and tied it to her wrist as an ornament.

After Zhao Lifan practiced marksmanship, his eyes swept over the two seal characters on the gun, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help twitching, not that he didn't like the name 'Nian Ling', but that he felt that it was too explicit, but Liu Shiling did not give in to the names Nian Ling and Sifan.

After retracting the bamboo holster, he returned to the house, looking at the two boxes of brand-new bullets on the table, his expression was more solemn than ever, the situation in Ethiopia has become more and more serious in recent months, and there are bursts of gunfire from time to time.

Two months ago, the tribes in the north of the country banded together for some unknown reason, openly confronting the current government, and a month ago they brazenly attacked the government forces, who were not in a hurry to respond and retreated.

Fortunately, the city of Gauss is not far from the capital of Yasbarbes, so the tribal alliance army has not yet attacked, but there is chaos on the side of Mekofil, and robberies are happening every day. Meike Copper Mine has also strengthened its defensive forces, and today they were equipped with semi-automatic rifles, and Zhao Lifan had not had time to clean up the bullets on the table.

"It seems that we have to pack up important things such as passports, documents, and bank cards, so as not to have time to pack up in case of emergencies. Zhao Lifan took out a bullet from the bullet box and unconsciously flipped it in his hand while muttering to himself.

Just do it, Zhao Lifan found his backpack, packed up the passport and other necessary and important things in the drawer, and then talked to Liu Shiling on the phone and reported his safety.

Liu Shiling urged Zhao Lifan to return to China when there was chaos in Ethiopia, but Zhao Lifan received a notice from Jinwei Company and asked them to hold on for a while.

A few days ago, Yang Changgen also called him and told him that the situation was very unfavorable for the government army, and the government was likely to abandon the capital Yasbarbes and move strategically to the south, and eventually form a north-south confrontation, telling Zhao Lifan to return to China as soon as possible, and yesterday Daniel and other members of the Qinghong Gang evacuated from Gauss City.

But the speed of the development of the situation has greatly exceeded Zhao Lifan's expectations, as soon as he finished talking to Liu Shiling, he received a call from the captain Hu Haiyang, asking him to pack up his things, and live in the copper mine after coming to the copper mine tomorrow, and the Meike copper mine will be completely blocked and prepared for war.

Because the copper mine got the news that the Ethiopian government had evacuated the capital Yasbarbes overnight, and the news would inevitably spread throughout the country tomorrow, it would definitely cause a lot of turmoil, so the Meko copper mine made such a decision overnight.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Lifan sat on the chair and didn't know what he was thinking, when suddenly a gunshot from the town pulled it back to reality, he jumped up from the chair, smashed the palm of his right hand with his left hand, and began to pack up his things after turning around on the ground twice.

In fact, there was nothing to pack, he packed a few changes of clothes and toiletries in a large handbag, and then put the bullets from the mine into the bag, zipped them up, and swept his eyes around the room.

In the end, his eyes swept on the electronic album of him and Liu Shiling at the bedside, and he rushed to pull out the memory card on the album, and after making sure that there was nothing else to take, Zhao Lifan put on his backpack, carried a handbag in one hand, and carried the team's newly issued automatic rifle in the other hand and went out.

After locking the gate of the small courtyard he had rented for nearly three years, Zhao Lifan threw the key into the courtyard, then took a deep look at the familiar iron gate, and strode towards the Meike Copper Mine.
