Chapter Seventy-One: The Clouds of War
Half a month later!
The border between Great Qin and Great Wei was suddenly shrouded in a dark cloud of war, and because the Moling Mountain area was located on the border, the atmosphere was naturally not much better!
During this time, it was common to see the Great Wei cavalry rumbling across the border, and from time to time there were small groups of cavalry crossing the border, as if they were scouting the movements of the Great Qin side.
For a time, everyone in the border area was in danger, and they all said that a national war as it was 20 years ago was inevitable! However, because there was no definite information, these things were all spread by false rumors, and it was impossible to do them accurately.
The 'Diyan Cave' on the southeast side of Mengjiabao fifteen miles.
Since the banquet was disturbed by Chidong half a month ago, Meng Yi and the others have stayed here and never gone out again.
In the cavern, a pool of lava fire bubbles with a bubbling sound.
A swarthy iron furnace topples, billowing brass juice dripping into the prepared container below.
On the other side, more than thirty tall figures stood motionless in the cave. These figures are all wearing black robes on their bodies, and their faces have a 'Shura Ghost Face' shaped like a ghost!
Meng Wenshan has white hair, and the clothes on his body have not been changed for more than a month, and they have long been clinging to his body!
Meng Kuo beside him, fortunately, the strength of qi and blood is strong, but he is also a little unable to survive, during this month, he only rests for one or two hours every day, and the rest of the time has been busy in the cave!
"Yi'er, wake up!" Meng Wenshan bared a mouthful of yellow teeth and woke up Meng Yi, who was sleeping on a big rock!
Meng Yi opened his eyes, "Uncle, is it my turn?"
"No, those war horses are about to be cast!" Meng Wenshan shook his pale head and looked at Meng Yi on the boulder with a happy face.
"Really?" Meng Yi's sleepiness quickly dissipated, not only because he heard the news, but also because if he didn't get up again, Meng Wenshan's head would be about to stick to his face!
As soon as Meng Yi got up from the boulder, Meng Kuo lay on it on his back, and howled: "Meng Yi, you stay for a while, I can't do it!"
Meng Yi grinned, "Sleep, sleep!"
During this time, he was also underrested, and his energy was completely devoted to refining the bronze man!
Meng Yi followed behind Meng Wenshan and saw a row of war horses standing motionless on the ground on the north side of the cave!
It's just that these war horses are completely different from ordinary horses, and their whole bodies are the color of brass, like lifelike metal products, standing straight there!
Meng Wenshan's face was excited, knocking on the body of a brass-colored war horse, and making a metallic sound, "Yi'er, the refining speed of this batch of copper horses is much faster!"
Meng Yi also stepped forward and tested the strength of this batch of copper horses!
The horses in front of me were all the corpses of war horses pulled back from the slaughterhouse in Liucheng County, and after these war horses died violently in the military for various reasons, they were sent to the slaughterhouse to sell horse meat.
Later, it was discovered by Mengjiabao, so he couldn't wait to get it back at a high price!
The slaughterhouse owner was still quite puzzled, he didn't know what the Mengjiabao gang wanted so many horse corpses for!
"In half a month, I'm afraid this batch of bronze people will be completed!" Meng Wenshan touched a bronze horse and sighed.
Meng Yi also nodded, "It's almost there!"
Meng Wenshan suddenly looked arrogant and said, "How about calling it the Shura War Horse? I'm afraid it's difficult for a War Horse to compete with it in the Moling Mountain area!"
"Uncle, don't underestimate others!" Meng Yi said with a smile, the red armor war horses of Chifeng Fort are not weak, but they can also be ranked among the top ten in Moling Mountain, how strong the famous war horses in front of them are, you can only know if you have fought each other!
......
Liucheng County Ding's mansion!
The Ding family is the leading wealthy family in Liucheng County, and it has a lot of industries in the county, covering all walks of life, including restaurants, green buildings, martial arts halls, and so on! In addition, the Ding family also controls seven or eight walled forts in the Moling Mountain area, in other words, there are seven or eight ore veins in their hands.
In the back garden of the Ding family's mansion, two old men wandered leisurely one after the other.
"Master, the batch of black gold that suddenly appeared some time ago has been found out!" the butler of the Ding family bent down and followed behind the head of the Ding family, 'Ding Moxie'.
"Oh, where did it come from?" Ding Moxie threw the bait in his palm into the water, and suddenly a group of carp with golden bodies gathered over.
"Mengjiabao!" the butler said softly, glancing at the schools of fish in the water vying for food.
"Mengjiabao?" Ding Moxie frowned slightly, and the housekeeper on the side knew that his master had not heard of this remote Mengjiabao!
"Master, you may not know about Mengjiabao, but one of the people in Mengjiabao must have heard of it!" the butler smiled!
"Who?" Ding Moxie turned his head to look at him.
"This son's name is Meng Yi, and some time ago he made a fuss because he comprehended the 'Haoran Righteousness'!" said the housekeeper.
Ding Moxie was dumbfounded, "It turned out to be this son!"
"In this way, this Mengjia Fort is the walled fort in the area of my Liucheng County?"
"Exactly!"
Ding Moxie laughed, he straightened up and stroked his short beard, "I didn't expect that there was a black gold vein hidden in the area of Moling Mountain!"
The housekeeper also sighed, "It's really rare!"
Black gold is more valuable than soft gold, and the effect of soft gold is to increase the softness of the armor, achieving the effect of combining rigidity and softness, making the armor stronger in defense and less likely to be broken!
However, soft gold can only be combined with materials with amazing hardness to play a role in harmony!
But black gold does not have to be like this, it is a material that is both rigid and soft. There is no problem that the materials are different and cannot be completely integrated with each other.
The armor cast in this way is completely integrated, and the defensive power is far better than that of the armor doped with soft gold!
"Master, black gold is a commonly used refining material for Innate Realm cultivators, and it means a lot to our Ding family!"
"Naturally, with the Black Gold Vein, we can make friends with more Innate Realm cultivators. For our Ding family, it is indeed of great significance!" Ding Moxie agreed!
"Master, should we ...... then!" the butler looked at Ding Moxie.
"You do it like this......" Ding Moxie motioned for the butler to come over and whispered in his ear!
After a moment, the butler hesitated for a moment and said, "What if Mengjiabao doesn't agree?"
"Don't agree?" Ding Moxie glanced at him quite dissatisfied, and said, "Uncle Huang, in this Liucheng County, anything that is favored by my Ding family, does anyone dare to refuse?"
"That's what the master said!" Huang Bo also laughed!
Ding Moxie turned around and continued to sprinkle bait into the water, where groups of golden carp gathered!
Huang Bo hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, there is news from the capital, saying that the battle between Great Qin and Great Wei is inevitable, should we also make plans early!"
Hearing this, Ding Moxie frowned, pondered for a moment, and said: "Don't worry, this time it is said that the place where the two armies are facing each other is not on the side of Liucheng County, the focus is on the north of Moling Mountain, which is still more than a thousand miles away from our side, and the war will not burn us here for a while and a half!"
Huang Bo is still a little worried, having said that, who can say this kind of thing accurately, in order to win the battle, do the generals on both sides still use less roundabout techniques?
However, the Ding family's decision-making is still Ding Moxie's decision, and he is not good at interjecting more!
"Is there any news of the second prince?" Ding Moxie asked as he threw bait into the pool!
Huang Bodao: "Not yet, after the second prince killed Zhao Yuanyin, the son of the prime minister of Great Wei, he disappeared without a trace, during this time Great Wei searched in the territory like crazy, but he never found it!"
Ding Moxie's movements in his hand paused, squinted his eyes and said, "This Second Highness's courage is really not small! I have been a proton in Great Wei for nearly twenty years, I'm afraid I'm already crazy!"
"It's really appalling!" Huang Bo said!
"Let the people below pay more attention, maybe they will escape to our Liucheng County area!" Ding Moxie explained.
"Yes!" Huang Bo nodded.
"By the way, the new county magistrate of Liucheng County has arrived?" Ding Mo suddenly remembered something.
Huang Bodao: "It's already on the way, it is said that I have arrived in Xuanyang City two days ago, and I have been visiting friends in Xuanyang City for the past few days, and I should be there in a few days!"
"Visiting friends, this person's background is very deep!" Ding Moxie laughed, "This kind of sensitive moment makes this person come, and Liucheng County is afraid that it will become very interesting!"
Huang Bo thought about it and nodded yes!
