Chapter 296: Hurry
Of course, you can't tell Liu Ye now, otherwise how can you pull people. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
From the moment he realized the huge development potential of the psionic gun, Tianyou had already decided to recruit all the gunners of Zixiao Palace, that is, the Dragon Maiden, to his side. Even if you can't be your little follower, at least you have to be a friend. And as for those who refuse to give in...... And no one avoids them from using the new psionic guns, so it's a big deal to let them continue to play with their rags.
After a few perfunctory words, Tianyou finally said to Liu Ye: "We have to do tasks together tomorrow, and we should rest early today." You take this gun first, and I'll make a temporary improvised bracket for you when I go back at night, and I'll take it with you when I go out on a mission tomorrow. In addition, you should go back and prepare more crossbow arrows for later use, and don't bring the iron pills. ”
"Does it have to be a crossbow?"
"Yes, it must be a crossbow, the arrow is not suitable for your gun. ”
"Oh, I'll go back and try to collect some, but I won't be able to find many in one night. ”
"You don't have to worry about this, I can lend you as much as you can find, if it's not enough, I can lend it to you. It's just that my arrows are all special models, which are too extravagant for you. ”
Liu Ye didn't understand what it meant to be too extravagant for himself, but he still nodded habitually, and then said goodbye to Tianyou and returned to his residence. He has become accustomed to a lifestyle where others say what they say, and rarely disagrees with other people's opinions.
Tianyou, who returned to his cave mansion, saw Nan Ming sitting in the living room as soon as he entered the door, and sure enough, there was a perfect tonic soup on the table that was comparable to poison.
"You're going out on a mission tomorrow?" Before Tianyou could speak, Nan Ming asked first.
Tianyou walked into the cave mansion, sat on the stone bench beside Nan Ming a little tired, frowned and picked up the bottle of Ten Perfect Tonic Soup and brought it to his lips. After a little brewing, he pulled out the stopper, then closed his eyes and tilted his head, and poured the whole bottle of soup medicine in one go. "Vomit...... No matter how many times I've tried it, it still tastes so disgusting!"
Nan Ming squinted at Tianyou from the side. "Why didn't you resist this time?"
"Is it useful to resist?" Tianyou asked rhetorically without looking back, and then picked up the herbal tea on the table and began to wash the bottle, ready to drink the slag together. He doesn't like this thing, but whoever he is familiar with will mention it, and he is very serious. Even if you are not sensible, Tianyou knows that this thing is really very important, and you must not miss the opportunity.
Nan Ming glanced at Tianyou with some amusement, and then changed the topic and asked, "I heard that you plan to go on a mission?" Tianyou did not answer directly, but pulled his sleeve and handed his wrist to Nan Ming. Nan Ming stretched out his hand to sense the changes in Tianyou's spiritual power under the signal of Tianyou's eyes, and then said in surprise: "You have already broken through the late stage of cultivation? Why is the progress so fast? No, if you continue like this, the remaining eight bottles can't be taken in eight days." Although taking it intensively will affect the effect, but you are growing so fast, there is no other way!"
"No, no, no, this is actually controllable. Tianyou said: "The reason why I want to go out on a mission is that I plan to stop cultivating these days, if it is just the body that naturally absorbs the aura, the growth rate should not be so fast." And this time I plan to run farther away, to pick up the line of the Tianshan Mountains and the Eastern Boundary Mountain Range, which is far from the center of the neutral zone, and the aura is not as strong as on the mountain, and the growth rate will be further reduced. ”
Nan Ming thought for a moment and agreed with Tianyou's point of view. "Then you wait here, I'll go back and bring you the remaining eight bottles, you take them with you on the road, remember to keep them, these materials are not easy to come by, in case of loss, I don't have any more materials for you." ”
"I know. The great grace of Senior Sister and Fuxi Immortal is unforgettable. ”
Although this medicinal soup is unpalatable to death, it is a genuine tonic, and although the value of the materials cannot be accurately estimated, it can be concluded that it is by no means affordable for oneself. No matter what the reason is for Nanming and Fu Xi to take such good care of themselves, the effect of this soup is real. Therefore, Tianyou doesn't want to miss this opportunity to grow, and he doesn't want to waste this favor.
Taking advantage of the time when Nan Ming left, Tianyou shook the bottle several times, and after drinking the last bit of residue, he hurriedly took out the specially prepared sauce beef and nibbled on two large bites. If you don't use this extremely delicious taste to cover the previous medicinal taste, Tianyou is worried that he will vomit out uncontrollably.
Temporarily solved the indescribable disgusting taste, and Tianyou began to get busy again.
The mission is going to be sent out tomorrow, and the time is quite tight, and it is absolutely impossible not to prepare things.
In terms of main battle weapons, there are two divine weapons, Taiyi and Emperor, and the configuration can be called luxurious, but there is no need to think about it. The second main weapon is, of course, the compound bow that has been strengthened in Lu Meng's shop, but when I come back from this mission, this bow should probably be thrown away. As Tianyou's strength continued to increase, the bow's tension adjustment plate had been turned to the maximum position, but Tianyou still felt a little light. A few minor revisions were no longer enough to make this bow meet the needs of Tianyou, so the plan to make a better compound bow was already on the agenda by Tianyou. Of course, there is not much time left at the moment, and they must wait until they return from their mission.
All Tianyou has to do now is add a bowstring to his bow. The previous bowstring had not been used repeatedly under this kind of tension, and Tianyou was worried that the problem of breaking would occur during the mission, so he planned to remove the original bowstring and twist it together with a new bowstring, and use a double string to reduce the tension on the single bowstring to ensure that there were no problems during the mission.
This work Tianyou has done many times, and the bowstring is also ready-made, and now the reason for helping Zhenyuan Shangxian to do experiments is almost equivalent to building a new workshop outside the cave, and this tool and equipment are also readily available, so it is naturally easy and fast to do things.
When Nan Ming came back, he saw that Tianyou was seriously twisting the wire, so he didn't bother him much, and after putting down the medicine bottle, he briefly explained a few words and turned around and left Tianyou's cave.
Tianyou alone continued to bend into the strengthening of the bowstring, and the fire that had been raised before had been completely hot. After trying on the bow, he began to work around the stove again, and soon a small piece of iron ingot was melted into iron liquid, poured into a flat-bottomed trough prepared in advance, and in a short time cooled into a thin iron plate. Before this thing had completely cooled down, Tianyou asked Moon Shadow to help take out the iron plate directly.
Since the last time she found out that she had the ability to be immune to fire, Tianyou has specially asked Moon Shadow to try it, and she really has a very high affinity for flames and high temperatures, even if it is tumbling iron juice, she can directly reach in to test the temperature, even if she uses iron liquid to take a direct bath, there will be no problem. In comparison, Tianyou's ability is much weaker, he is just not afraid of fire, and his tolerance to high temperatures is not as high as that of Moon Shadow, at least he dare not touch the molten iron. But the ordinary fire doesn't feel much for him anymore, it's true.
It's normal to think about it. Moon Shadow is a phoenix, and it is right that she is not afraid of fire. Tianyou's ability is only a collateral effect of symbiosis with Moon Shadow, and it is normal that it is not as good as Moon Shadow.
With Moon Shadow, a helper who doesn't know what a hot thing is, processing metal is much easier. As the temperature decreases, the hardening of the metal does not occur suddenly, it is a gradual process. Moon Shadow can take advantage of the soft period when the crimson iron plate has just taken shape to knead the metal like plasticine, and then all Tianyou needs to do is wait for it to cool down a little before doing local forging and processing.
This time what he wanted to do was the arrow guide that Liu Ye needed, this thing was actually a bit similar to the arrow tower on the compound bow, but this one was to be mounted on the muzzle, so the structure was a little strange. After all, it also has to cooperate with the structure of the chamber.
Although the shape is a bit strange, it is not a special and cumbersome structure after all, and Tianyou quickly made a rough shape. After a simple quenching process using salt brine, it was thrown aside, and it was only used temporarily, and there was no need to pursue any quality.
After getting this thing, Tianyou still couldn't help but run to the passage next to the spiritual spring to cultivate for a while, but the cultivation realm began to go crazy again, and he had to rush upwards as if he was so frightened that Tianyou quickly stopped his cultivation and ran out. Now he was even more determined to go out for a while, because staying in the cave would always help but want to go down to cultivate, and in the past two days, I don't know if it was the Great Tonic Soup that began to take effect, or for some other reason, Tianyou felt that his cultivation speed was showing a stepwise growth trend. At this rate, if he stays in the cave for another two or three days, he will probably be able to break through to the bone refining stage. So, in order to curb this crazy growth, he had to leave as soon as possible.
Now let Tianyou resist not cultivating by the spiritual spring, it is like letting an old smoker quit smoking while watching others smoke, not to mention how tangled it is.
It was easy to restrain the urge to continue cultivating with his strong willpower, but as soon as his eyes were closed and the sky was opened, the sky was bright, and what was waiting for him in front of him was morning cultivation. Considering the speed of cultivation improvement last night, Tianyou still didn't dare to go down, and forcibly went to the platform to exercise his body, and then fled with his demon pets as if he was being hunted down.
The agreed meeting place was the cafeteria, where everyone met together for breakfast, and then went down the mountain together.
This time, instead of using the teleportation array, they chose to descend the mountain on foot. After leaving the mountain gate, Tianyou was about to speak, but the guy called the hero took the lead and shouted: "If you have a spirit horse, everyone let the spirit horse out, let's figure out how to arrange the spirit horse and see if it is enough." If it's not enough, rent a few good horses in the town as soon as possible, and it's good to get around. ”
"Well, that makes sense. ”
The people introduced by Murong Xuan echoed the hero's words, but Tianyou didn't react to this, after all, he was also right. However, this guy's actions after that obviously had a strong purpose.
With his words, four spirit horses were immediately released from the group of people introduced by Murong Xuan, and if the two of them rode together, it would be just enough. However, unlike the others, the spirit horse released by the hero is a red horse with shiny coat and long legs. Without looking closely, this horse was half a head taller than the other three spirit riders around him just by standing there, and he could tell at a glance that the level was higher.
Originally, it was nothing that there were some differences between everyone's spirit horses, after all, everyone was still a disciple, and except for Zhao Lingyun in their group, the other levels could not be regarded as particularly high types, so it was normal for their spirit horses to be more average or not have spirit horses.
However, the hero guy turned over directly after summoning the spirit horse, and then urged the spirit rider under his crotch to walk in front of Tianyou, first condescendingly demonstrated with his eyes, and then deliberately asked Tianyou in a weird way: "Doesn't the team leader have a spirit horse? How about this, or let me give you a ride?" Senior brother, this is a five-soul spirit ride, which is rare on weekdays. ”
Of course, the hero said this kind of thing intentionally to show off the excellence of his spirit horse, and at the same time, he also saw that Tianyou did not have a spirit horse, so he dared to say so. As for Bai Bingyu and Zhao Lingyun, they were directly ignored by the heroes. After all, those three were all female disciples, and no matter how unruly the monks were, it was unlikely that they would casually ride together in front of so many people, which would be too exaggerated.
Because of this, the hero judged that Tianyou was most likely unavailable for spirit riding. After all, now that there are spirit riders, all of them have been taken out, even if they are not released, at least the spirit riding magic beads have been held in their hands. Seeing that Tianyou is empty-handed, obviously there is none.
As for saying that he showed off his high level of spirit horses, this was normal, because the five soul spirit horses were indeed rare.
The spirit rider is divided into the main soul and the auxiliary soul, and the main soul can only have one, but the auxiliary soul has no upper limit. However, the more soul beads are fused, the more difficult it is to fuse, so most spirit riders are mostly three or four souls. For example, the three spirit horses taken out by the group of senior brothers introduced by Murong Xuan just now, among them, there was one with three souls and two with four souls. In contrast, the hero's five soul spirit rider does have the capital to show off.
However, this guy was obviously snorting too soon.
Before Tianyou could speak, Bai Bingyu threw his spirit horse out first. With a burst of smoke, a white spirit horse, more powerful than the hero's spirit horse, jumped out of the smoke. This pure white spirit rider knew at a glance that it was not an ordinary color, not only was it taller than the hero's, but its coat color and spirit were obviously higher.
"God bless, my Six Soul Spirit Ride is for you to use, I'll just go and ride with Lu Meng. ”
The hero was looking at the white spirit horse thrown by Bai Bingyu in a daze, but over there, Lu Meng threw out the spirit riding magic bead in his hand again, and then a spirit horse with the same divine horse appeared in front of everyone.
Lu Meng's girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and after summoning the spirit horse, she jumped up and down and waved at Bai Bingyu, while still shouting: "Senior sister come and ride with me, my six soul spirit ride is fast." ”
Originally, Bai Bingyu and Lu Meng's two six soul spirit riders were like two slaps with bows left and right, swelling the hero's face, but Zhao Lingyun, who hadn't said anything all morning, made up for it. As the Spirit Riding Orb in her hand landed, it was not a horse that appeared after the smoke.
The form of the spirit horse mainly depends on what kind of creature soul bead the main soul uses, usually in order to facilitate manipulation, the main soul uses a tamed war horse, which can ensure that the spirit horse has a high degree of obedience. For example, the Hell Demon Dragon Spirit Rider that Tianyou got was completely out of control because it used the Hell Black Dragon's soul bead as the main soul, so it was completely out of control and could not be used at all. Otherwise, if you really want to fight for the spirit ride, Tianyou will never be afraid of anyone. Even if the average spirit rider fuses 100,000 horse souls, can it be better than the Hell Demon Dragon?
It's a pity that this spirit ride of God's blessing is still just an ornament, which can be seen but cannot be used.
However, Zhao Lingyun's spirit ride is not this kind of goods that can only be seen but not used. Her spirit rider is obviously the same as the hell demon dragon blessed by God, and the main soul uses a demon soul, because this spirit rider is not in the form of a horse, but a beast.
The spirit rider was nearly two feet long, and its whole body was as red as blood, with faint orange flames circulating and churning on its surface. Its body shape is similar to that of a leopard, strong but not bloated, and its whole body exudes a sense of strength that is about to come out. Beneath the short, dense melted hairs are bulging tendons, which give the illusion that they will pounce out at any moment, even if they stand still.
This is obviously not a spirit ride made of a horse soul, the main soul is clearly using a certain demon soul. As for how many auxiliary souls it fused...... Because it is not a common horse-shaped spirit ride, there is a lack of reference, and it is impossible to judge. But considering that its main soul uses a demon soul, in order to keep it stable and not completely out of control, this auxiliary soul must have used a lot of horse souls, otherwise it would not be so obedient at all.
Zhao Lingyun, who threw such a bombshell, acted as if nothing had happened, and said to Tianyou while stepping on the spirit horse: "My fire lynx is surrounded by fire, and ordinary people can't approach it, so my senior sister won't invite you to ride together." ”
Tian Youxin said: "This Nima is a heart blow! Look at the hero's expression, this is about to collapse, right?"
Fortunately, the hero is not alone, although the seven companions behind him are not completely with him, but after all, they are all Murong Xuan's followers, and they have to protect Murong Xuan's face. So, after reacting from the shock, the crowd immediately began to distribute mounts in a noisy and then hurried everyone on the road.
Bai Bingyu and the others just couldn't get used to that guy's attitude, and they didn't plan to really force him to death, so they didn't continue to stimulate him anymore and moved with the crowd.
Although there is a three-soul spirit riding in the team, and it is a double ride, the spirit rider is much stronger than a living horse after all. Therefore, the speed of the team's movement is not bad, and the speed of the road is quite fast.
Originally, the roads in the neutral zone were not very peaceful, and the caravans were basically small armies armed to the teeth, and ordinary people did not dare to leave the settlement alone. But God bless them and their group are all monks, and they are all wearing the uniform clothes of Zixiao Palace, even if they encounter a robbery, they immediately burrow back into the dense forest when they see them dressed up, for fear of being remembered.
People who dare to offend Zixiao Palace in the neutral zone can't say that there are none, but there are definitely not many.
The spirit riding speed is fast and tireless, and everyone runs from morning to noon in one breath, all the way through the state and county, and has already run a long distance. At this time, a small town happened to appear in front of him, and Tianyou asked everyone: "After running all the way, everyone must be tired, let's have lunch here, and take a rest by the way?"
As the team leader, it was reasonable for God to arrange everyone's actions. But the hero who had been dull all the way suddenly came back to the spirit. Before the others could agree, he took the lead and shouted: "Didn't you say that the first task was very urgent in the morning? What else do you have to rest? Didn't everyone bring dry food? Just eat on horseback while hurrying on the road." As a monk, don't you have that ability yet?"
Although the spirit rider is tireless, the people on the horse will be tired. Besides, the spirit riding is not a perpetual motion machine, this thing does not eat grass, but it needs the rider to continuously inject spiritual power to run. Now that I have been running all morning, everyone's spiritual power has gone for a small part, and it is natural that they will be tired.
When the hero said this kind of thing at this time, everyone was inevitably a little unhappy, but what he said also made sense. The disciples who took over the task scroll knew that some tasks were life-threatening, and they really couldn't be delayed. Therefore, when the hero said such things, even if everyone was unhappy, no one objected.
Tianyou saw that everyone had no objection, and it was not good for him to force everyone to rest, so he could only follow: "Then in this case, let's continue to hurry." ”
In this way, the team had no choice but to pass directly through the city, and rushed towards the mission goal without stopping.
It is true that many of the tasks received by Zixiao Palace are related to human lives, but the monks are not people's policemen after all, and they will not really rush away as soon as they receive the tasks. It's absolutely rare to go crazy like this and not get off the horse without eating. But this also has the benefit, at least it is a lot faster.
Running until dusk in one breath, Tianyou began to control the speed to slow down the team, but the hero who was always on the same side as him did not slow down and ran in front of Tianyou at once. It was supposed that this position should be the position of the team leader, but he rushed to the front.
Looking at Tianyou, who was half a position behind him, he turned around and shouted, "Why did Senior Brother Tianyou slow down? Could it be that the cultivation is too low and the aura can't keep up with the consumption?"
It is good for Bai Bingyu to lend Tianyou the spirit horse, but the more this kind of high-end spirit ride, the greater the consumption. It is common sense that sports cars are not fuel-efficient, and it is the same in the Shenzhou continent.
The hero had suffered a loss in the matter of the spirit rider before, so he held back his strength all the way to get back to the field. And the opportunity he found was this high-level spirit rider ridden by Heavenly Blessing.
There are 12 people here, and Tianyou's cultivation is the lowest, and he still rides a relatively high-end spirit horse, and the consumption is naturally the fastest. At noon, the hero encouraged everyone not to rest and hurried continuously, just to drain Tianyou's aura, so that he could show off his cultivation in front of Tianyou, and then mock Tianyou's low cultivation.
However, to his surprise, Tianyou ran all the way from morning to now, and there was no sign of depletion of spiritual energy, but it was very relaxed. It wasn't until just now that Tianyou slowed down, and he guessed that Tianyou couldn't hold on anymore, so he slowed down.
Unfortunately, his speculation had nothing to do with the actual situation.
Tianyou didn't discover the hero's conspiracy, but he wasn't alone in the grip of the Spirit Rider. Don't forget that he has a moon shadow on him. In the symbiotic form, Moon Shadow can share aura with Tianyou, of course, only in this fusion state or if there is any direct contact.
In short, in addition to his own aura, Tianyou also has the reserve of Moon Shadow to use. Besides, Tianyou himself gathers spiritual energy quickly, although the total amount of storage is not as good as that of heroes and their higher-level senior brothers, but he returns to the demon quickly. Along the way, his aura consumption rate was always only slightly higher than his recovery rate, so his actual consumption rate was far less than that of the heroes. If he continued to run like this, even without the help of Moon Shadow, Tianyou would never be the first one who couldn't hold on.
Because the heroes chased along the way, intentionally or unintentionally, Shengsheng brought Tianyou's speed up a lot, and the team behind slowed down because of exhaustion, resulting in only Tianyou and the hero being in the front now. Zhao Lingyun, who was following closely behind, was still three positions away from them. Anyway, this distance couldn't be heard too far in the high-speed running, Tianyou simply didn't bother to pay attention to him, continued to control the spirit horse to slow down, and quickly returned to the middle of the team.
Without waiting for the heroes in front of them to slow down and let them catch up, Tianyou directly informed everyone loudly: "Reduce the speed of the horse, pay attention to controlling the consumption of physical strength and spiritual power, and we will spend the night in the next village." ”
This time, Tianyou didn't ask everyone's opinions at all, because he didn't need to ask him to know what everyone thought. After galloping all day on horseback in one breath, even the monks' physique was almost overwhelmed. What's more, the two worst senior brothers in the team are already running out of spiritual energy. And monks without the support of spiritual energy are actually not much better than ordinary people.
This decision made everyone happy at once, and although they did not speed up excitedly, they finally regained some spirits.
The hero in front saw that Tianyou was slowing down and falling behind, and he also slowed down, and immediately opened his mouth to be sarcastic after hearing Tianyou's shout. He himself guessed that Tianyou was dying, so he was unwilling to give up at this time, he wanted to see Tianyou embarrassment.
It's a pity that he wants to see it, but others can't bear it.
At noon, it was because he had a valid reason, and everyone didn't really have to rest, so he was accommodated to continue running. But that's not the case now. Except for Zhao Lingyun, who cultivated high enough and didn't have anything, everyone else more or less felt a rather strong sense of exhaustion. In this case, even if they were both Murong Xuan's followers, the others didn't plan to help him anymore.
"Senior Brother Hero, don't you take care of the others yourself, right?
"That's it, Brother Hero. It's okay to hurry up at noon, but it's been a day. Even if we get to our destination, how can we still have the strength to carry out the mission?"
Someone took the lead, and the others immediately followed and began to gossip, and finally Bai Bingyu also spoke. "I said it before leaving, Senior Brother Tianyou is the team leader, so naturally I have to listen to Senior Brother Tianyou. ”
The hero originally wanted to be sarcastic and didn't want to become an enemy of the people, but now he can't hold on anymore, so he can only change his words and say that he has to take a break or something, but no one pays attention to him at all, and he doesn't answer his words, so he doesn't say it anymore, so embarrassing. Fortunately, a village happened to appear in front of him, and he finally found the conversation to resolve the embarrassment.
"Look, there are villages. ”
"This should be Zhaojia Village. The team had slowed down from galloping to a leisurely state like walking, and Tianyou held a map in both hands, controlling the horse with only his legs, while finding the corresponding position on the map. Along the way, he would ask for the name of each village he visited, and then compare it on the map.
There are no navigation satellites on the Shenzhou Continent, and the mountains are high and dense, and the roads are also tortuous, so it is very easy to get lost if you are not careful, and it will be difficult to find it back once you get lost.
"We passed by Xiaoshu Village before, and there are no forks in the road along the way, so there should be no mistake. Bai Bingyu controlled the spirit rider and walked next to Tianyou and said to him.
Lu Meng, who was behind Bai Bingyu, then asked: "I have also checked the map before, and after Zhaojia Village, we are going to Xinghuang Village." Shall we just kill it overnight?"
Tianyou frowned, thought for a while, and then shook his head and refused. "Nope. Our mission is to find out the cause of the poisoning of the villagers of Xinghuang Village, and it is inconvenient to investigate information at night, and the danger is too high. Moreover, many villagers in Xinghuang Village have moved to Zhaojia Village for refuge after being poisoned, and we are stationed here tonight just to find some villagers in Xinghuang Village to inquire about the news. ”
"Then it's up to you to spend the night here. ”
