"Hehe, I really didn't expect that Shaoxia would have the strength of a master of the rivers and lakes at such an age, and the future prospects are really limitless... In the order of the Lin, the unicorn of the Lin. If there is anything you want, do what you can ... At this time, the middle-aged owner suddenly became sincere, and he no longer had the intention of underestimating Zhang Fan.

The reason is, of course, self-evident: if a young man around the age of sixteen or seventeen has a strength comparable to that of a master of the rivers and lakes, then not to mention the future prospects, he may now be a figure relied on by various families or a relatively outstanding young man in the sect. It's not a village and town arena owner who hasn't even crossed the threshold of the seven products of the outer door, even if it is an outstanding field owner, it can be compared.

Zhang Fan, who had seen a lot in his previous life, was not surprised by this, and he didn't care much about it, but when he heard Shan Lin being so polite, he took the opportunity to say: "Since that's the case, then I'm not welcome." You here, do you have a decent flying needle hidden weapon? Don't use some broken copper and broken iron or four or five grade steel to make do, the third grade steel and above the quality of the flying needle hidden weapon? If so, it would be best to have a complete set of hundreds of pieces. . . ”

Of course, Zhang Fan knows that in this world, the material of gray iron or ordinary high-carbon steel with eight times the strength and the best performance, almost equivalent to the performance of super steel in later generations, is first-class steel in this world, and four times that of second-class steel, probably similar to the armor steel or general gun steel of the World War II era. The third-class steel required by Zhang Fan itself did not intend to be too demanding. After all, the penetration performance of needle-type concealed weapons is generally very strong.

Hearing this, Shan Lin had to smile helplessly: "Shaoxia really thinks highly of our town." This kind of hidden weapon is not common in the rivers and lakes, and even if ordinary outer disciples have it, they don't use things like sewing needles to replace it... ”

"It doesn't matter if it's a sewing needle or something like that, as long as it's not too small for an embroidery needle, it's okay to have a three-point weight. Under the trade-off, Zhang Fan could only retreat. Because if you think about it carefully, the speed is enough, the range is not too far, and the copper bullets can have considerable penetrating ability, not to mention the steel?

Such an answer made Shan Lin can't help but look down on Zhang Fan in his heart: Although this person has good talent, his heart is really too unstable. The outer door needles on the rivers and lakes are usually at least one penny and weigh more than five inches to be easy to use. If it is not a master of the top inner door, then the steel needle above and below the weight of ordinary embroidery needles or sewing clothes will not have any decent power at all, and the very common metal soft armor can effectively resist it.

In this world where price inflation often does not change much in one or two generations, Zhang Fan, who has experience in his previous life, is not a big wrongdoer, and naturally he can't do things like exchanging dozens of nearly 100 gold coins for more than 100 sewing needles, so he swept away the inventory in the store in the town, and also borrowed a lot from various households, and collected a lot of them, so that he made a total of about 700 sewing needles in seven temporary iron cylinders.

For Shan Lin, this also seemed to take a lot of time to collect and collect, so it took almost a day and a night to barely do it. Zhang Fan has no intention of wasting time. After all, on this river and lake, all kinds of dangers may come at any time, and only by improving their strength as quickly as possible can they have more luck.

In a hidden place in a field outside the town, Zhang Fan entered the shield again, and it took him about a year to use the True Martial Heart Technique to improve his internal strength and body cultivation to the level of about five grades in the outer gate. In fact, Zhang Fan can continue to practice, and a few years are only a few days from the outside world. However, if that's the case, because of the loss of life, there will be obvious changes in one's appearance that are easy to detect, which will always make those who are familiar with you feel strange and cause some trouble when your own strength is not yet consolidated. Therefore, the age increase of about a year is already the upper limit.

Although entering the outer gate five products is only an increase in quantity, and there is no particularly important pass and threshold, it also makes Zhang Fan feel that his ability to control internal force has become more like a finger, and the strength and various functions of his body have also been greatly improved. The internal force can not only contract freely in the situation of force, but also effectively form a certain heat flow between the hand through the situation of vibration and wave in the palm. Zhang Fan believes that with his internal force control skills at this time, in fact, his ability to use is far beyond that of ordinary martial artists of the fifth rank of the outer gate, and he already has a certain threat and lethality ability for mortals and even ordinary officers and soldiers of the second rank of the outer gate. Of course, the pattern of relying mainly on foreign objects for the means of killing has not changed much.

Just when Zhang Fan had prepared a set of equipment that could barely give full play to his strength in the martial arts town not far from Shanyang City, and was just about to go to the dueling arena in Shanyang City to earn some more capital and practice another idea he already had, he saw a notice posted near the gate of Shanyang City: " Fengyan came from the east, the army of the Four Nations Alliance came from the sea, bypassing the border pass and landing directly in the southeast hinterland, the forward is only about 1,500 miles away from Shanyang City and Zhenwumen, Zhenwumen and the disciples need to return to Shanmen as quickly as possible to resist the enemy, and the scattered cultivation families outside should be transferred to Shanyang City as soon as possible to avoid possible sweeps by the enemy... ”

Of course, Zhang Fan also knows something about the national war. Whether in his previous life or in this life, Xiao Xuan did not have much sense of identity with the Great Xia Dynasty itself, but in this kind of national war competition, the two warring sides often did everything, and the various sects and factions in the martial arts and even some Jianghu scattered cultivators were compared to the other party's key targets for strategic strength, and ordinary people were often more dangerous in the face of this kind of foreign military disaster.

In contrast, the Jianghu warriors in the Great Xia Dynasty still have a certain status, but in the Tianfeng Kingdom in the north, the Wanshan Kingdom in the west, Yunluo Island in the south, and the Phantom Island in the east, the status of both mortals and Jianghu warriors is even lower. Therefore, at this time, Zhang Fan felt that the great man of chivalry naturally wanted to do something for the people, even for the country, but in this case, he did not mind getting some benefits by resisting the enemy battlefield. After all, I also need some resources to improve my strength and armament as soon as possible.

The martial arts personnel of the Great Xia Dynasty who entered the outer gate Wupin and recruited as non-officers and soldiers to participate in the war with the army, who specialize in the re-evaluation of meritorious officers or above, or have obtained the head of important officers and generals of the other party, can be exchanged for corresponding combat merit points and can be exchanged for corresponding rewards.
