Huge snowflakes like goose feathers fell from the dark sky.

Yikes! Yikes!

In the distance, there was the sound of feet stomping on the snow.

A figure wearing a hat, extremely tall, dressed in a pure white samurai suit, with two swords on his shoulder, was striding through the vast snow, followed by a huge black bull like a small mountain, and at this time the two were covered with snowflakes, but they did not realize it.

"Monkey, do you still have wine?"

The big black bull shook off the snowflakes on its body, and white vapor erupted from its nostrils.

At this time, its mouth opened and closed, and it spat out a human voice, and said to the figure on the side who lowered his hat and couldn't see clearly: "This snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the journey is really boring. ”

"Nope."

The white ape raised his head, revealing the shaggy face beneath the hat.

It took out a large bright yellow gourd from its bosom, with warmth on it, and at this time pulled out the wooden stopper, raised its head slightly, tilted the hat, and the thick snowflakes on the top slid down in large swaths, turning into a puff of snow and ice chips sprinkled behind him.

Click!

The big gourd has its butt facing the sky, hanging high upside down.

At this time, the white ape opened its mouth to expose its fangs, and after a while, only a drop of liquid slipped out of it and fell into the throat. ”

"Uninteresting."

When the big black cow heard this, he was suddenly a little bored, "Shao Yang, this kid is really strange, living in such a place where birds don't, it's easy for me to find Lao Hei." ”

"Let's go, don't talk nonsense."

The white ape hung the big gourd on his waist, lowered his hat, and said calmly: "According to what those humans said before, if you go in this direction, you should be able to arrive before dark." ”

A cow and an ape spoke, their figures flickering, and gradually disappeared in the snowstorm.

……

As time passed, the sky grew darker.

The snow is getting heavier and heavier, the cold wind is whistling like a knife, rolling a large area of snowflakes like goose feathers flying and falling, facing the hazy light, the mountains and rivers on the land are reckless, and the buildings are brilliantly lit by the mountains and rivers.

Whining!

Several thick and towering chimneys stand.

Large puffs of gray smoke were constantly spewed out above, blown away by the winds that swept high in the air, and below were clumsy circular buildings, rows of thick pipes stuck into them, and the other end was buried in the earth, spreading in all directions.

Yikes!

Before the large snowflakes could fall on the rotunda, they were dispersed by an invisible wave of heat.

At this time, the fire was raging inside, and a large number of sturdy men were shirtless, pushing wheelbarrows to continuously transport the pitch-black carbon stone into the building.

"Add water, add water!"

A bearded man roared.

His rugged face was red from the huge stove around him, and young men pushed wheelbarrows past the side, pouring a large amount of carbonstone into the ground, and several men with coiled muscles shouted to shovel up carbonstones with iron picks, and threw them into the blazing fire.

Crash!

Buckets of water were carried down a spiral-shaped staircase and poured into a large funnel.

"Close the gates, add fire!"

The bearded man gave a loud order, and then a creaking sound came out, and several strong men puffed up their muscles and struggled to push a large turntable, and suddenly the gears struck, the large funnel was closed, and a large amount of water inside was poured into the large boiler forged from metal.

Bang! Bang!

The fire was blazing, and there was a faint roar from the big boiler.

"Put!"

Dahan looked at a dial on the side of the boiler, the hands on it slowly turned, gradually approaching a red notch, and then ordered loudly, and suddenly the valves were opened.

In the thick pipes above the boiler, there was a faint roar of extremely fast air.

……

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

A large space connected to a large number of pipes, with a huge flywheel spinning.

A huge machine consisting of a block of pulleys, levers, and bearings runs at high speed as the flywheel rotates, and below it is a metal bench with various metal tools.

"This robotic arm won't work!"

A fat man looked distressed, he scratched his messy hair, and his eyes were bloodshot.

In front of him were rough yellow papers, charcoal drawings of all kinds of patterns, and various formulas were listed on the side, and he was struggling with a complex drawing.

"Hey, if only Qin Mo and Ning Qi were here."

The fat man sighed, "If you want to build a castle with the ability to walk, there are too many things involved, whether it is materials or calculations, I can't do it now." ”

"Forget it."

The fat man let out a long breath.

He was ready to attack the fortifications for a long time, but he was not in a hurry, so he muttered: "I heard that the princes of the southern region are fighting now, and I don't know what happened to the master and the senior brothers, well, let's finish the matter at hand first." ”

"Last month, several heads of Dayong purchased armor."

"And the sword weapon of the Flowing Wind Sword Valve."

The fat man counted his fingers and muttered in a low voice, and his face suddenly fell: "I am a disciple of the Imperial Palace, and I have obtained the inheritance of the equipment of the Hundred Schools, but now I want to do these things with no technical content, it's really sad!" ”

"Father, this old fellow is really!"

"The Shaw clan is a family of craftsmen in the end, although most of them have now turned into samurai, but there is no shortage of people to create these armor and sword weapons, so I have to be responsible."

The fat man had a sad face, but his eyes were warm.

He chattered and complained, and even disrespected his father, but he was extremely happy in his heart, just because he grew up with his mother since he was a child, and he was born weak, so he couldn't temper his body, and he couldn't become a samurai or a master craftsman, and he could only be regarded as a waste person in the family.

Now that he has returned from studying art, he has reflected the value of existence.

can even help his father, undoubtedly making up for a gap in his heart, but he is a dead duck with a hard mouth, and he relies on himself to be a disciple of the Taishang Palace, which seems quite rebellious.

"Shao! Beg! ”

At this time, I was thinking about it, when suddenly a muffled voice like thunder rolled in.

"Who?"

The fat man looked startled, and hurriedly ran out, at this time it was dark outside, and the snow was falling, and he didn't feel it in the warm room, but now he felt a little cold, and he couldn't help but have a cold war.

"Shao! Beg! ”

There was another sound like a muffled thunder rolling across the earth, faintly echoing.

The fat man was rather strange as the noise began to come from this large area of brightly lit buildings, and he could see figures flickering everywhere on the high ground here, apparently startled by the sound.

"Yang'er."

A middle-aged man with a majestic figure and a big hat walked over quickly.

Behind him was a large number of warriors with a strong temperament, and at this time, snowflakes fell on his body, his eyes were bright, and he asked calmly: "But there is an enemy outside?" ”

"What are you guessing, old fellow."

Shao Yang pouted, if he doesn't go out of the door, what kind of enemies can he provoke.

At present, he vaguely guessed who it was, so he took a deep breath, and in his slightly bloated body, his qi and blood were agitated, and the sound of wind and thunder faintly came, urging him to be reckless, and his face was slightly red.

"Shao!"

"Ao!"

"In!"

"This!"

He jumped out word by word, forming sound waves that exploded in front of him, rolling into the distance.

The middle-aged man on the side felt a thunderbolt in his ears, and his eardrums were buzzing, his expression became relaxed, and he silently took the warrior on the side to distance himself from Shao Yang.

……

"Hey!"

The big black bull bared his teeth and said to the white ape on the side: "I'll just say it, monkey, why do you need to be so troublesome, just call him directly?" ”

There was a hint of smugness on its big cow face.

At this time, he turned his head, opened his mouth and took a sharp breath at the wind and snow, stalked his neck, and the air flow in his throat twisted and vibrated rapidly, cascading like thunder roaring, "Senior brother and Xiaobai have come to see you!" ”

"Senior brother? And Senior Brother White Ape? ”

Shao Yang, who was listening intently, was suddenly overjoyed after hearing the shouts from the wind and snow in the distance, and he said to the middle-aged man standing silently on the side: "Old guy, senior brother, they are here, hurry up and prepare for the banquet, hahaha, I want to entertain senior brother!" ”

"Okay."

The middle-aged man smiled and looked disapprehensive to Shao Yang calling him an old guy: "Since he is my son's fellow senior brother and my Shaw family's guest, I naturally have to entertain him well, and my father will go with you to greet him." ”
