Chapter 24: The Ancient Forgotten Master of the Mountains
In the bustling market, two young girls dressed in colorful colors walked by. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xiaomeng at this moment, with a face towel on his face, in the Shura Demon Realm, the status of women is far lower than that of men, and women who really have status are not in front of people, but in order to live, there are always some women at the bottom who need to appear in front of people, at this time, the face towel has become a must.
Clothes can be dressed brightly or even exposed, but the face must not be seen casually, which can be regarded as a normal state for women in the Shura Demon Realm.
Although this kind of outfit is conducive to hiding himself, Xiaomeng is actually very dissatisfied. In Huaxia, it is already considered that men are inferior to women, but it has not reached such a point. It is very normal for women to wander around the city, although there are some women with status who are used to wearing a veil, but the veil is mostly light and thin.
Unlike here, women with a little bit of identity can't appear in front of people, and the face towel is thick and thick. Women walk down the street, automatically give way to men, and even have to speak quietly.
On the Shenzhou Continent, the barbarians living in Yinchuan for thousands of miles, the status of women is also very low, basically equivalent to men's goods, Xiaomeng thought to himself, so barbarians are barbarians.
Of course, in China, there are also "cheap loans", and women in cheap places are also no different from goods, but the vast majority of women are outside of cheap loans. And the women who walk the rivers and lakes are all free bodies, and they are naturally excluded from the Confucian system of "male superiority and inferiority of women". But here, it can be said that the vast majority of women are considered "cheap", and I am afraid that there are very few exceptions.
Bright clothes and tight face towels make it difficult for others to recognize her even if they have a wanted warrant. What's more, this is no longer the Demon Zhu Domain, the bottom of the Shura Demon Realm, although it is also very chaotic, but Xiaomeng's martial arts and Zhijixiang's secret techniques are still enough for them to protect themselves.
In this way, it took many days for them to finally come all the way to the foot of the mountain.
Raise your head, the whole mountain is like a towering pillar of fire, scattering mysterious fire light under the sun. If it were someone else, they might be surprised by the style of this mountain, but now Xiaomeng is also used to the rivers and lakes, and knows that this is just a phenomenon called "Danxia", and it is not uncommon in the Shenzhou continent, Yueling and some mountainous areas in the southwest.
The further they entered the mountain, the more they went, the hotter it became, as if there was a boiling hot air coming to their faces, as if the whole mountain was a big furnace. Xiaomeng pulled off his towel and looked up, and at this moment, they came to a towering mountain wall, which was steep and could not find a way forward.
Zhi Jixiang raised his head and shouted loudly, "Is Mr. Gu Wangshi here?" ”
On the top of the mountain, an old voice came coldly: "Who is looking for me?" ”
Xiao Meng was secretly shocked in his heart, this ancient master of the mountain was clearly far away on the mountain, but his voice could go straight down, and his skill was extraordinary.
You must know that at this moment, they are in a valley with no end on three sides, and Zhi Jixiang's cry has the bonus of echo, and it is not very strange to be heard by the people on the mountain, but the mountain is empty on all sides, and if the sound wants to be passed down, it is definitely the level of the sect saint, and it may even reach the level of the overlord of Chu.
Zhi Jixiang shouted again: "Mr. Gu Wangshi, we want to ask you to help us build a weapon......"
The old man on the top of the peak snorted coldly: "Don't help!" ”
Zhi Jixiang hurriedly said: "Old man......"
The old man on the peak sneered: "It's just two girls, and you want to ask the old man to build weapons?" You really look down on the old man, get out! ”
Zhi Jixiang shouted: "Old man? Old gentleman? But there was no answer from the top of the mountain.
Zhi Jixiang hurriedly said: "How is this good?" ”
Xiaomeng snorted and said, "What's good?" If you don't help, you won't help, and you're just an asura, so you look down on women? ”
The old man on the top of the peak suddenly shouted, "What did you say? ”
But it turned out that although Xiaomeng was just whispering beside Zhi Jixiang, his voice was like a sword qi stabbing towards the peak, without relying on any echo, and without any shouting, it was like a whisper between two girls, but the old man on the peak could hear it clearly.
Xiaomeng raised his head and said casually: "It's just an asura, and I came to ask you to build a weapon to look down on you?" So you underestimate yourself so much? The sound was not loud, but it almost rushed straight towards the top of the mountain.
The old man on the top of the peak snorted coldly: "You girl, you have some skills, but you want to ask me to build weapons?" Hmph, if you have the ability, you can rely on your own ability to get to the top of this mountain, I may think about it or two. ”
Zhi Jixiang looked up at the towering peak, and was worried, this piece of broken wall, there was no way to climb the mountain, how could they go up? Although Xiaomeng's "flying five-star" also has the effect of a sword and a hundred steps, how can this broken wall be more than a hundred steps? What's more, panning is not the same thing as climbing.
Xiaomeng smiled and said, "Is it that simple? "With a sword trick in his left hand, he waved his right hand and made a sword with two fingers, piercing the sky. The sword qi around the body was vented, invading the heavens and the earth, and the mysterious light rushed out, enveloping the two of them, and actually took them and flew into the sky.
Zhi Jixiang looked at the moving mountain wall in front of him in surprise, the speed of their rise was not fast, but because it was not fast, it was actually more and more difficult, concentrating light into qi, gathering qi into fog, this feeling like soaring clouds and driving fog, like a dream.
The mountain peak is towering, they actually go straight to the peak like this, on the peak, an old man with long hair suddenly raised his head, and looked at the two girls who were rushing in the light in surprise and suspicion, and then moved: "This is...... Tianyao Divine Light? ”
One of the girls took the sword trick, led the companion beside her, and landed on the peak smoothly, surrounded by clouds, and the fire behind the old man was rushing. The girl glanced at the old man: "You are the ancient forgetful master of the mountain?" ”
Arch your hands: "Farewell!" He took his companion and turned to leave.
The ancient master of Yanshan took a step forward and suddenly shouted: "Wait! ”
The girl looked back, "What does the old gentleman say?" ”
The ancient master of the mountain drank again: "Are you leaving like this?" ”
The girl was surprised: "Is there anything else?" ”
The ancient forgetful master of the mountain suddenly pointed out: "You, you ......"
Next to the girl, Zhi Jixiang also opened his eyes wide, completely unable to figure out the situation at the moment. Didn't we come up the mountain to ask Mr. Gu Wangshi to forge a sword? Since you have come up, you should beg for it, why did Xiaomeng leave after showing off her treasure?
It feels like the idea is not on the same channel as Xiaomeng at all.
Gu Wangshi looked at the girl in front of him in surprise and suspicion, he was able to find so many Tianyao divine lights, this girl was not simple. What's even more simple is that she just performed this hand to fly in the light.
Gu Wangshi could see that this girl's strength was not very powerful, but even so, as a woman who could not cultivate demonic energy, it was already remarkable to be able to reach this step, ordinary Shura soldiers or Moro warriors were not her opponents at all, and ordinary demon generals were probably able to fight.
But this is not the main thing, in this world, the reason why men are powerful is more due to the ubiquitous demonic energy in heaven and earth, which provides them with a source of strength. But this girl, with the vision of Gu Wangshi, couldn't even see what kind of exercises she was cultivating.
The only thing that is certain is that this is by no means relying on the secret technique performed by Xuanjing, but from the girl's own strength, of course, it also adds the characteristics of Tianyao Divine Light itself. This girl is practicing swords, there is no doubt about this, the sword qi is light, and with a person to pull out to such a high peak, this girl is really unusual.
He snorted and said, "Do you want to forge a sword with this Tianyao Divine Light?" ”
Xiaomeng stuck out his tongue: "Why should I tell you?" Pulling Zhi Jixiang and turning around again: "Let's go!" ”
Gu Wangshi flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "Have you forgotten what you did here? ”
Xiao Meng said with a grin: "You are Gu Wang-Shi, and I am not forgetful-female!" After thinking about it, he turned his head to look at Zhi Jixiang: "What did we do here?" ”
Zhi Jixiang said: "This, this ......" I can't remember it all of a sudden.
Gu Wangshi shouted, "You two!! ”
Zhi Jixiang reacted suddenly, and quickly turned around: "Old man, that's the case, we want to ask you to forge a sword with Tianyao Divine Light for this little dream sister......"
Xiaomeng turned to look at her: "Sister Zhijixiang, forget it, I don't think this old man is incompetent, it doesn't matter if he wastes our time, it's not good to waste Tianyao Divine Light, let's go find someone else, right?" ”
Gu Wangshi sneered: "You don't want to use the radical method again, just see that you can hide the Tianyao Divine Light, and you can take one person to the top of the mountain, I will forge a sword for you, it's not a big deal." Hmph, looking for someone else? There are very few craftsmen who can use the Heavenly Yao Divine Light to create weapons, and there are very few in the entire Shura Demon Realm......"
Xiaomeng was not very relieved: "Mr. are you one of them?" "I'm worried.
The ancient master of Yanshan suddenly pointed out: "You, you ......" flicked his sleeves, turned around and stepped forward: "Hmph!" ”
Zhi Jixiang turned his head and looked at Xiaomeng in surprise, thinking that this can also work? Xiaomeng stuck out his tongue and said with a grin: "Didn't this old gentleman say that he lived for a thousand years?" I don't know how I can do it, but my temper is not small. ”
"Enough!" Afraid that she would offend the old gentleman who finally agreed to help them forge swords, Zhi Jixiang hurriedly pulled her and asked her not to say any more.
***
Three days later, at the top of the mountain, Zhi Jixiang came out of the wooden house in the distance with a plate, walked for a while, and came to the place where the sword was cast.
In the depths of the mountain, there is lava rolling, the peak of the sinking annular gap, the dark iron as the furnace, the furnace is engraved boiling bubbles, that piece of dark red, hot gas. At this moment, above this golden soup solution, there was a pair of twin swords hanging in the air.
This pair of twin swords is obviously not finalized, and the clouds of energy are rushing, and they are angry and bullfighting. On the wooden platform on the other side, Xiaomeng was sitting precariously, closing his eyes and concentrating, and in the past three days, he basically did not move.
Standing on the periphery of the circular gap, looking up at the male and female swords hanging in the air, the treasure in the sword is amazing, and the best casting materials he has treasured have been used, the sword has not yet been completed, on top of this originally thin air peak, but there is also an invisible air pressure down, as if there are ghosts and gods to stop the casting of the sword.
Zhi Jixiang came behind the ancient master of the mountain, who was wearing a robe and hunting in the wind with the sleeves of the robe. The wind was strong on the top of the mountain, and the furnace was above the furnace, but the invisible aura could not even penetrate the wind, and the sword qi emanating from the girl on the wooden platform formed a mysterious resonance with the hanging double swords, which no one could understand.
Zhi Jixiang said: "Old man, can this really be done?" "She had never heard of such a short time for swordsmithing, and that except for the first two days, the swordsmith didn't have to do anything in the back, it was all up to the swordsmith to do it himself.
As if knowing what she was thinking, Gu Wangshi snorted coldly: "This pair of twin swords is completely different from all the weapons I have forged before, and I am afraid that they are also different from the weapons of the entire Shura Demon Realm. Forging weapons with Tianyao Divine Light was originally unprecedented, and although I have used a lot of high-grade casting materials, the hardness of the sword body still depends on the density of Tianyao Divine Light itself. And Tianyao Divine Light can't be forged, if it is purely casting, the hardness is not enough, and when it hits a truly strong weapon, the edge is afraid that it will collapse at the first touch. ”
continued: "These Tianyao divine light has been fused with her own sword qi, since others can't forge it, she can only rely on herself to inject the sword heart into it, how strong her heart is, how strong the sword is, how soft her heart is, how tough the sword is." She is affectionate, the sword is affectionate, she is ruthless, and the sword is ruthless. The sword is divided into male and female, it is her own will, and the sword body is clear, which is the clarity of her sword heart. The old man just gave her a place to forge a sword, and what was really casting a sword was her sword heart. What she used was a martial art I had never seen before, and what she forged would also be a sword that had never been seen before. ”
Zhi Jixiang listened as if he understood but did not understand.
Gu Wangshi snorted again, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something more, but quickly closed it again. As a forger, he only asked the person who came to ask him if he had the ability to cast soldiers, and never cared about the identity and background of the person, of course, this is also because, no matter what kind of person he is, when he comes to him, he will often see through his martial arts background and magic cultivation at a glance.
But only this girl, whose origin is unknown, and her sword aura is strange, even he can't see through it. Even he was curious about this girl's background, but his proud temperament coupled with the habit of not asking about the world made him not ask more questions after all, but just sneered again: "These two swords are cast by her own sword heart, the sword can be cast, it is her ability, if the sword can't be cast, it is her own business, and it has nothing to do with me." ”
Zhi Jixiang thought to himself, how can it be like this? It was at this time that suddenly there was a thunderous sound, which came from the bottom of the mountain like a thunderbolt: "This general is under the Golden Demon Throne of the Demon Zhu Domain, and he has come to visit the ancient master of the mountain!" ”
The first warrior under the Golden Demon Throne actually chased here so quickly? Listening to the sound under the mountain, Zhi Jixiang was suddenly startled.
Immediately afterwards, there was a bang, bang sound from the other side of the mountain wall, and the mountain shook, obviously Di Yaoguang was coming uninvited.
The ancient master of the mountain snorted, and the girl who was sitting in a precarious position still did not move on the stage, as if she didn't know anything about anything outside her body, or she turned a deaf ear.
Zhi Jixiang turned his head suddenly, only to see a demonic aura rushing into the clouds like a tornado, wearing a red tasseled helmet and wearing white armor, the young demon general rose angrily, bang, fell to the ground, the entire mountain top shook again, among the flying dust, the first battle general under the Golden Demon Throne held his hands, Fang Tianbao halberd was behind him, stepping towards them, with every step he took, the entire mountain was shaking.
