It turned out that the shopkeeper had been learning alchemy from a great alchemist since he was a child.

Although he was not very talented, he was very diligent, and often came up with various methods of alchemy that broke the rules, and was deeply loved by his master.

The high-spirited shopkeeper also fell in love with his sister, and his life was very happy, and he became more and more bold, and later he actually touched the forbidden area of God.

He stumbled upon an ancient book from his master's library, and upon closer reading, he found that there was a small part of it about the legend of ancient times: in order to resist the rule of the gods, mankind researched powerful puppets and had a fierce war with the gods. These puppets have autonomous consciousness, and even the extremely powerful dragons are shy away from the puppets. However, although the puppet was strong, it was ultimately defeated by the gods and dragons who were superior in strength and strength, and fought against the two camps with their own strength, and finally ended in a fiasco. After this great war, although the dragon clan was also greatly injured, they still chose to destroy all the powerful puppets in one go, eradicating all the outstanding mechanical craftsmen who made the puppets, only some low-level puppets were not completely destroyed, and the troops were exhausted, so they hurried back to their respective fields to recuperate, and from then on, there were only a bunch of puppet-like ordinary puppets left in the human world, and there was no transcendent intelligence.

This ancient book records that it is completely different from the legend of the gods and gods in the world "Pudu Sentient Beings", about the existence of gods and dragons, the shopkeeper does not pay too much attention to it, and what he cares about the most is the book - the puppet has independent consciousness!

But when he happily took this book to the master, he got it in exchange for a head-on drink, scolding him for not learning and not knowing, learning some crooked heresies, and insisting that the puppet with independent consciousness is all fantasy and nonsense!

Even the ancient book that the shopkeeper found was burned on the spot by the extremely angry master, and the shopkeeper was not allowed to mention the matter again.

The shopkeeper was disgruntled, and decided to secretly study alchemy, vowing to create a puppet with independent consciousness to prove his idea right.

The young shopkeepers were too simple and naïve to know that they had offended the interests of the leadership, and they relied on the system of gods to rule their subjects and enslave them with their faith.

If people can exercise the power of God and create life, they will inevitably endanger their own dominance, so the heresy of the shopkeeper who dares to blaspheme the divine right will be punished with death.

The master found that the shopkeeper was still obsessed with this suspicion, and finally had no choice but to expel him from the master's door, and even the junior sister who had always been in love with him broke off the relationship with him.

Later, as the shopkeeper grew older, he gradually understood the master's hardships, and his resentment towards the master diminished a lot.

However, he is stubborn, he still refuses to give up his dream, and has been secretly studying the alchemy of magic puppets, thinking that after he has studied it, he will return to his master majestically, so that his master will be ashamed and his sister will regret it.

How do you know that this research is decades later, and the master and sister don't know where to go in seclusion, and he still hasn't been able to successfully study the puppet with independent consciousness.

However, he is extremely accomplished in alchemy, especially in puppet making, and is much more powerful than the great alchemist.

After decades of anticipation, the dream artifact suddenly appeared in front of him, and the excitement of the shopkeeper could not be understood by ordinary people.

The shopkeeper's face changed uncertainly, and finally made up his mind and stood up, "Lord Viscount, the old man is willing to give the storage bracelet to your lord for free, but there is one condition that I beg your lord to allow. ”

Jiajing originally didn't have any hope for the storage bracelet, but when he heard the old man say this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly agreed: "I don't know what conditions the shopkeeper will open, as long as I can do it, even if I say it." ”

The old man's gaze became a little misty: "Please allow the old man to follow, as long as you give the puppet to the old man from time to time to study." ”

Jiajing didn't expect the shopkeeper to put forward such a condition, so he was stunned for a moment: "Are you sure, I'm planning to leave the star picking for a while, so what about your shop?"

The old man smiled with relief: "This magic shop was originally used to hide his identity, and he didn't make a lot of money, even if he had money, he was used by the old man to buy alchemy materials." Although I rarely refine magical equipment, I consume a lot of materials for research. The shop is worth a few sealing runes and magic crystals, and my man has been with me for more than ten years, so I will leave it to him to take care of it. Wherever the Viscount is going, I try to follow. ”

Jiajing thought to himself that he was leaving Star Picking City, everything outside was still unfamiliar, and it was very convenient to have a knowledgeable person to follow, so he nodded: "That's good, but the storage bracelet can't be asked for in vain, I'll give you 30,000 gold coins, can it?"

The shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, in the future, if the viscount finds any alchemy materials, he will give the old man and me the refining equipment." If you meet a craftsman who is skilled in mechanical forging, I also hope that the viscount can accept it, and with their help, the old man may be able to make a puppet and give it to you. ”

Jiajing smiled slightly: "Since this is the case, then you don't want the Viscount to call me like this anymore, if you don't dislike it, just call me Jiajing." ”

The shopkeeper shook his head stupidly: "No, no, no, if I am heard, I must not say that I have ruined the reputation of adults, old man, my name is Claude, and the boss will call me Lao Ke." ”

Jiajing had no choice but to let him continue to respect himself like this.

After Claude handed the storage bracelet to Jiajing, he explained to him how to use the bracelet.

The two went out of the room, and the shopkeeper instructed the man to help him take care of the shop, and strictly forbade anyone to enter the secret room in the back, so he and Jiajing returned to the Yihong Tavern.

was about to leave Star Picking City, Jiajing instructed Yan Mei to take care of the affairs of the tavern, buy a sweaty BMW that travels thousands of miles a day, plus a large number of daily necessities and special products, etc., and rush back to Thunder Shadow Village alone.

One is to visit the village chief and Meng Tiansi, although the village chief is still selfish to drive him away, but it is undeniable that they have also taught themselves survival skills in this world, one day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father, Jiajing has to go back to honor and filial piety.

On the other hand, Jiajing is trying to retrieve another revolver that he buried in the mangrove forest by the sea, and the remaining bullets.

There were also a lot of robbers and thieves on the road, but Jiajing's strength was outstanding, but there were no accidents, and it only took a little more than a day to rush to Thunder Shadow Village, which was thousands of miles away.

When Jiajing first arrived at the entrance of the village, the villagers were not sure that it was Jiajing, after all, he was still dressed like everyone else, all of them were shoddy clothes, how could he be as luxurious as he is now, and he was riding a high-priced sweaty BMW, looking heroic.

But Meng Tiansi had been born and died with Jiajing for a long time, and at a glance it was Liu Fu Jiajing, who had left the country back then, and immediately led a group of villagers out to greet him.

When the village chief saw Jiajing coming back, he was still a little unconvinced, and when he walked out of the village, he saw his noble head and gestures, all of which were aristocratic temperament.

Look at his swaggering son, he is almost middle-aged, and no woman has married him, so he bowed his head in shame on the spot.

When Jiajing and the villagers got together, they took out a large number of items in the storage bracelet and gave them to the villagers, and when they saw the village chief's expression was very uncomfortable on the periphery of the crowd, Jiajing took a bag of dry food and strode over and handed it to the village chief, "Kebi Village Chief, thank you for your trickling teachings back then, as well as Captain Meng Tiansi's personal teaching, so that Jiajing can come back better on this trip, this is Jiajing's heart, and I hope the village chief will accept it with a smile." ”

The village chief was embarrassed to excuse himself and didn't dare to accept it, but Meng Tiansi laughed loudly and ran over to take it with one hand, while saying, "Hey, how can there be a reason why others refuse to accept gifts, right, little brother Jiajing!"

Jiajing smiled and nodded, and with the support of the villagers, he returned to the house where he used to live.

If it were in his hometown, he would not come back every few years, and even the doors and windows would have to be demolished and sold by the villagers.

In contrast, the warm hospitality of the villagers of Leiying Village is still deeply loved by Jiajing.

Meng Tiansi was not polite, and asked everyone to prepare immediately on the spot, and held a feast at Jiajing's house in the evening.

On this day, drinking their high-end wine produced by Yihong, singing and dancing happily, and tossing until midnight, Jiajing finally sent the last villager out of the house with a smile.

Turning around, he leaned against the door frame, burped, sat on the ground full of alcohol, and couldn't help laughing, "It's been a long time since I've drunk so much." ”

As he was talking, he heard a burst of footsteps outside, although Jiajing was a little drunk, he still subconsciously moved to the side, trying his best to hide his body in the darkness that the moonlight could not shine.

When more than a dozen figures sneaked into the house, and Jiajing was about to question them, he heard a few female voices, "Brother Jiajing, Brother Jiajing......"

"Huh?" Jiajing was a little confused, and this sound immediately startled several girls, and they covered their mouths and squatted down to prevent their screams from spreading outside the house.

By the moonlight, Jiajing can now see clearly, it turned out that the girls in the village who came to his house twice in three days to take care of his diet and daily life actually spontaneously formed a team and entered the house again tonight, saying that they wanted to marry him.

It turned out that since Jiajing protected the villagers twice, their admiration for Jiajing left with Jiajing, and even though time passed, it still increased rather than decreased. The long-term lovesickness, and I don't know when they can see each other again, they have all desperately thought: Maybe they have no chance with Jiajing in this life.

But except for Jiajing, they can't look down on other men, so they are determined to wait for Jiajing for the rest of their lives, if they can't see him for the rest of their lives, they won't marry anyone else for the rest of their lives.

If Jiajing didn't want to accept them now, they would not be able to kneel on the floor of this dormitory.

Jiajing saw that they had made up their minds, all of them had a bit of beauty, they were all lovely people who came out of the water hibiscus, and they were now alcoholic, even if they already had their beloved wife Yanmei, they were not easy to refuse coldly at this time.

So he had to nod his head half-well in agreement, "What's your name?" Jiajing thought to himself, at least he had to know the name of his woman.

It turned out that these thirteen girls were all seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls in the flower season, and Jiajing also remembered their names - Ju Jingwei, Lin Siyi, Mo Han, Zhao Jiaming, Zhao Yue, Feng Xinduo, Zeng Yanfen, Li Yitong, Yang Yunyu, Xu Jiaqi, Dai Meng, Fei Qinyuan, Jiang Yuxi.

The girls waited for many years, and finally came to marry their sweethearts, they were extremely happy and full of love, and they made a promise to follow Jiajing for the rest of their lives.

However, Jiajing didn't dare to have a relationship with them right away, even if this empire was feudal and backward, Jiajing didn't dare to take them to Star City now, for fear that Yanmei would be sad and jealous, so he gave them gold and luxurious clothes and jewelry, and after he finished decorating this big house, he added a wall, let them move in collectively, and then recruit more bodyguards for the village.

These villagers are simple and honest, but they don't dare to offend his women, and the bodyguards are all dead soldiers who have been brainwashed and castrated and loyal to Jiajing, and their strength is above the villagers, so Jiajing naturally doesn't have to worry too much about other things.

Jiajing stayed in this village for a few more days, and that night, Jiajing quietly climbed down from the big bed that could lie on dozens of people, and after passing more than a dozen beauties, he sneaked out of Thunder Shadow Village.

He quickly crossed the cordon set up by ordinary soldiers and entered the mangrove forest, and soon retrieved his revolver and bullets buried under the rocks, along with two sets of diving suits and lifeboats, all of which were placed in storage bracelets.

He went back to Thunder Shadow Village to share the bed with his thirteen lovers, and the next day when the sky was slightly bright, he bypassed the bodyguards he hired while everyone was still in a sweet dream, and said goodbye.

When she returned to Star Picking City, Yan Mei had already sorted out the items that Jiajing needed, including tens of thousands of gold coins, some precious jewelry, food, water, clothes and other daily necessities.

Still, the Punnard brothers carried a large bag full of food—who told them to eat a lot.

Jiajing lingered with Yan Mei all night, and put on Yan Mei a luxurious ring brought out of the oil tanker, inlaid with a 1-carat diamond and two 13-carat red gemstones, and after reluctantly saying goodbye to Yan Mei, he took Claude and the Storm Bear brothers, and left Star Picking City.

Yihong Tavern officially has the support of Cafirot, as for the underground forces, Yihong has a deep friendship with the Tempest Knights, there are many gangs and hooligans in Star Picking City, all kinds of mercenary groups, all of which have a very good relationship with Yihong, and Renault who is proficient in the southern boxing he taught, Jiajing does not have to worry too much about Yan Mei's personal safety.
