Chapter Eighty-Three: The Existence of a Mole

Lu Ye I was in the blacksmith shop, and I devoted myself to learning some forging skills.

It is undeniable that some forging techniques in the Cold Weapon Era are very backward compared with modern times, but there are also some bright spots in them.

There are even some objects forged by lost technology that cannot be replicated in modern times.

In short, Lu also immersed himself and learned forging skills from these blacksmiths, but some people in the gathering place couldn't sit still.

Lu Yezheng put a piece of red-hot iron on the anvil, holding the hammer in his hand, and kept beating.

This forging process may seem simple, but in practice, it is very difficult.

Strength, endurance, heat resistance, and hand stability and accuracy are all important.

Lu also created a small piece of arrowhead, and when he made it, he planned to attach a thin rope to the back and use it as a chain dart or flying claw.

Just when Lu Ye was concentrating on striking iron, there was a commotion outside the door.

"That little white face is not inside, you let him come out for me!" There was a big shout from outside the door, and there was a huge knock on the door: "Little white face, open the door!"

"You have the ability to deceive people, you have the ability to open the door!"

This sentence made Lu Ye's face twitch, and the hammer in his hand was directly struck, and the arrow that was gradually forming was directly deformed.

Lu also had no sense of continuing to forge.

He has never been the only one who used Aunt Xue's eighteenth style to knock on other people's doors, and today someone actually knocked on him like this, he wanted to see who was so bold.

The gate of the courtyard was directly opened, and a strong man who was two heads taller than Lu Ye immediately focused his ferocious gaze on Lu Ye's body.

"Sure enough, it's a little white face!" The strong man's eyes were fierce, the muscles on his body trembled, and he pressed one hand on the door frame, shouting like a tiger roaring: "I'm Liang Husheng, little white face, come and try it, let me see what ability you have to fight so many green-blooded slaves alone!"

"Or is it that you kid deceived everyone and discussed affairs, and you are a white-faced liar at all!" Liang Husheng stared at Lu Ye with a pair of eyes, as long as Lu Ye showed timidity, he would immediately press it, and he was bound to squeeze out the foundation of this little white face, so that everyone could see that he Liang Husheng was amazing.

Lu also looked at Liang Husheng's posture, and also understood why the other party was so angry.

Zhang Li led the team to answer, but only to answer, except for a small number of people who escaped, not many people saw Lu Ye's battle with the slaves.

There are definitely spies hidden in the Ruins City, but the information they pass on is usually only given to the high-level of the gathering place, and most people are unaware of their existence, which is also to ensure the safety of the spies.

Therefore, the high-level leaders of the gathering place are aware of Lu Ye's true ability, and some people also publicize it in this way, in this era, the role of a hero is priceless.

However, the bad thing is that this kind of information is not comprehensive.

The higher-ups only said that Lu also took away the celestial weapons of the inner ruins and fought a large number of slaves alone.

But when Lu Ye came, Zhang Li brought it, and many people could see clearly that Lu Ye did not carry too many items, and Zhang Li's team did not carry those celestial weapons, which made those people feel a trace of falsehood.

In addition, Lu Ye's figure was not as tiger-backed as they thought, which deepened their doubts.

Especially Lu Ye has relied on this reputation these days, and has been sought after by countless female strong men, and being able to use good iron to forge weapons makes people jealous.

The simplicity of the people does not mean that the people here are not jealous, but their jealousy is on the surface.

Especially those who escaped from the City of Ruins, those who escaped through other passages didn't see Lu Ye fighting with the slaves, and the people who saw it, because Lu Ye pulled them as a shield to hate Lu Ye, how could they speak for Lu Ye.

Especially in these days, Lu is also avoiding those female strong men, which is a problem.

Li Niang's kind of woman with a tiger's back and a bear waist and can run only Lu Ye on her arms, but the peerless beauty who can be ranked in the entire gathering place is replaced by Hongda's kind of goods, and Li Niang hooked his finger and ran over.

As a result, this little white face named Y actually refused Liniang's stay.

They don't know or care about Lu Ye's aesthetics.

The most common thing people do is to guess the behavior of others with their own self-concept, and to interpret the thoughts of others with their own thoughts.

If this kind of behavior is further developed, it will become "public knowledge", and a set of "truths" that conform to the logic of their thinking will be formed with their own ideas, and if they do not conform to their ideas, there must be problems, and they must be immoral, and they will stand on the moral high ground with their own shallow cognition to criticize everything that does not conform to their cognition.

I think, I think, I think and so on are all very skilled.

So such a rumor spread in the gathering place.

The rumor was put forward by someone who was still a little famous in the gathering place: the guy named Y, the reason why he rejected Li Niang must be because he was not in good health, he was a bad person, and he was afraid that he would be exposed on the kang, so he kept rejecting Li Niang.

As a result, more and more people began to suspect that Qi Lu was coming, and the famous person further derived a speculation: this little white face named Y actually had no real skills, nor did he take away the Heavenly Realm weapon, he deceived the high-level of the gathering place with lies, and he was such a complete liar!

Well, turning speculation into an established fact is also a specialty of the "public knowledge".

This kind of popular tone is still very marketable, and most people have a kind of potential malice towards famous people, so every time a celebrity breaks out a scandal, it seems to be a full-name carnival.

So driven by this rumor, a simple-minded fierce man like Liang Husheng with well-developed limbs came directly to the door.

If he beats Lu Ye, then it is estimated that countless people will applaud him and call him a hero, and the rumors against Lu Ye will be even more ferocious.

If Lu also has the real ability and proves it, then it becomes that we are just reasonable guesses and doubts, this is for the safety of the gathering place, anyway, guessing is not illegal, I guessed wrong, at most apologize, you were forced by rumors to ruin your home and kill people, what does it matter to me.

They always stand on the high ground.

Lu Ye is skeptical about this matter, under normal circumstances, there are high-level people in the gathering place who endorse Lu Ye, so ordinary people will not doubt Lu Ye, the credibility of the high-level is still very strong, even if someone questions it, it will not form a storm so quickly, so serious that someone will come to the door.

And there are two main places where this rumor is questioned, one is that Lu has no real ability, and the other is that Lu has not brought back the Heavenly Realm weapon.

The higher-ups knew that the Celestial Weapons were hidden in the Ruins City, and the people underground generally didn't pay much attention to the Celestial Weapons that they couldn't use.

This made Lu Ye have to suspect that there were also spies of the green-blooded people lurking in the gathering place, and this turmoil was generated under their influence and promotion, and the purpose was nothing more than to retaliate against Lu Ye and test the location of the weapons in the heavenly realm.

Of course, for now, Lu Ye must first pass the level of Liang Husheng, and then consider the issue of catching the traitor.
