Chapter 146: Four Months Ago (6)
The two men walked through the houses to a well.
"Jump. Yan Ru stood beside the well, turned back to Wang Yun and smiled slyly, turned around and jumped into the well.
"I'm going, is it so wild? There must be a lot of people from your 100 Ministry of Labor who will commit suicide by throwing themselves into the river in the future. Wang Yun looked down at the bottom of the deep and dark well, and without hesitation, he jumped into the well.
The stone brick wall of the well has a sense of age, Wang Yun just glanced at it, and before he could react, he was already down-to-earth.
"Here?"
Wang Yun looked around, and asked Yan Ru on the side in a surprised tone.
"Where the real Golden Gate of the Hundred Crafts Department is, the place where those craftsmen and masters temper their spiritual martial arts, and the place where the master of the Golden Gate lives - the quenching pool. It is not only connected to the mountain city and the earthfire, but also to the other four gates. Oh, by the way, you can also access the Yuehua Peak Treasury from here. ”
The place where Wang Yun and the others are currently located is a small hall.
Wang Yun glanced up, the roof was covered by fine masonry, and the gaps between the masonry were tight, and there was no sign that people could fall.
The same is true on all sides and on the ground, except for a small door in front of it, which is the only exit in the entire hall.
"Where did we get here?" he asked, curious.
"I don't know, jumping into the well anyway, it's going to be here. I asked Master Qian, and he said that he wanted me to find out on my own. Yan Ru shook her head and walked outside.
Stepping out of the hall, the scene in front of him made Wang Yun, who came here for the first time, stunned.
It was a bright circular square, so vast that Wang Yun thought that it was formed by hollowing out the belly of the Scorching Shadow Peak. In the center of the square is the largest area, which is red as a whole. Surrounded by the edge are some tools built by craftsmen to temper spiritual martial arts, and some craftsmen are busy around.
It is a vast area, but there are few people, and it is easy to be affected by the surrounding environment and fall into a state of calm.
Although it is sparsely populated, it is not deserted.
Because, right in front of Wang Yun's eyes, a tongue of fire erupted violently from the red area in the center, and instantly rose to a height of several zhang.
That's right, the red position in the middle is the origin of the name of this place, a pool composed of earth fire. The blazing flame reflected the whole square brightly.
"This is the place where the teachers of the Hundred Crafts Department temper their spiritual martial arts?" Looking at the spectacular scene in front of him, Wang Yun's voice couldn't help but lower a little.
"To be precise, it's where the teachers practice and live. Yan Ru's voice couldn't help but be a little solemn, although she had been here a few times, but every time she came here and saw such a spectacular scene, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"Residence? There are no houses around here, where do they live?" Wang Yun squinted his eyes and took a closer look, and found that there were mountains and rocks all around, not only did he not see the entrance to other areas, but he also did not see a place for people to live.
"Tempering Lingwu is not striking iron in the mortal world, although there are similarities, but there are also essential differences. For example, when tempering the spirit martial arts, the spirit person needs to establish a connection with the spirit martial arts, and nourish the spirit martial arts with their own spiritual temperature, and once it is interrupted, the previous achievements will be lost. Yan Ru didn't answer this positively, but Wang Yun suddenly realized.
"Oh, no wonder you didn't go home a few times at night, Zhang Wenyu also asked me to knock on the side of the bell, but he was still a spy. ”
Wang Yun's response reaped Yan Ru's white eyes.
"Let's go, I've seen the ink disciples. ”
When Wang Yun heard this, he hurriedly pulled his collar and followed Yan Ru.
As he approached the quenching pool, the scorching heat in the air became more and more obvious, Wang Yun glanced at Yan Ru, who had no change in expression, and had a hint of understanding in his heart about the sentence "Spirit Martial Artist can only be competent by the Golden Spirit and the Fire Spirit".
Ahead, two old men were talking. Before he got closer, Yan Ru greeted him vividly, "Good ink apprentice, good Qian master." ”
One of the two old men had white hair and was dressed in a dark gray cloth coat. He was taller and had a ruddy face, and when he heard Yan Ru's greeting, he turned his head and nodded with a smile, and said, "What's the matter, Yan girl, have you come to me for help if you have a problem?" His voice is hearty and warm, and people can't help but feel good.
Yan Ru hurriedly waved her hand, "No, no." I've been practicing smoothly lately, and I haven't asked for a money helper. I'm here to find the Motu. ”
The other one, that is, the ink disciple in Yan Ru's mouth, was dressed in coarse linen clothes, similar in size to Wang Yun, except for his face, which could be seen to be an old man, there was no trace of the characteristics of an old man in the rest of the place. Especially with his full head of black hair and bright eyes that seem to be able to see through people's hearts, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a man in the prime of life.
"Hmph, I usually don't bother to take care of you little cubs, it's rare that I'm in a good mood today and can teach you something, and I even refuse me. It's really a blessing in the midst of blessings, and I don't know how to be blessed Although Qian Shi said this, there was no trace of annoyance in his tone.
"What's the matter with me?"
The ink disciple turned his head without any expression on his face.
"Hmmm......"
This was the second time Yan Ru had spoken to Mo Tu, and somehow, looking at Mo Tu's serious expression, she was a little apprehensive. When they met for the first time, that is, when the ink disciple gave her the logo of a first-class craftsman, she felt that the unsmiling old man in front of her was very sharp. He just said "not bad" at the time, and turned around and left after giving her the logo, so that she couldn't figure out for a while, is it a very common thing to step into a first-class craftsman in more than a month?
Aren't it years before most people can do it?
"Mo apprentice, Master Qian, please let the students call the shots!"
Yan Ru was still hesitating, Wang Yun's performance had already arrived, and he shouted with three points of grief, three points of resentment, and four points of fear on his face, and he almost knelt down with a thud.
"I know! I should have spoken first!" Yan Ru glanced at Wang Yun, who had already attracted the eyes of the two of them, and sighed in his heart.
Seeing that the two did not speak, Wang Yun was full of emotion, his voice was three-dimensional, and his emotions were sincere and he told all the scenes that had happened before.
"The student's name is Wang Yun, and he is a student of the Shaonian Water Spirit Palace of the Spirit Department, and he is a good friend of Yan Ru. Students have been practicing swords, bows and arrows since childhood, and they continue to practice diligently after becoming spiritual beings. When I came to the Ministry of Hundred Industries today, I wanted Yan Ru to take Lingwu with a hand, but I didn't want to meet Senior Brother Li Xia Huang at the entrance of Kinmen. ”
Wang Yun's voice suddenly became a lot lower.
"Senior Brother Li heard that I had come to select Lingwu, and in the name of his more seniority, he sent Yan Ru and brought the students to his house. After that, he asked me how many credits I had, and when he heard that there were more than 2,000 students, he was very dissatisfied, saying that this number of credits was enough to exchange for Lingwu, and kept asking me what precious things I had, and I told him that it was a Lingjue Cave token worth 60,000 credits that Liang Luojia had awarded me with a value. When he heard this, his attitude changed drastically, and he threw me a spiritual martial that he had just tempered, called the Divine King Sword. Oh, this is it. ”
Saying this, Wang Yun handed the God King Sword in his hand to Yan Ru. The corners of Yan Ru's mouth twitched, took the sword of the god king, took a few steps forward, and showed it to the ink disciples and Qian Shi to see.
"Then, Senior Brother Li said that this God King Sword is comparable to the Heavenly Grade Lingwu, and when he was born, he met me who came to choose Lingwu, which is a sign of fate with me. Before I could speak, he forcibly took my token and shoved it into my hand, saying that it was my good fortune to exchange it for it. ”
Wang Yun saw that the eyes of the two old men had become cold, and continued to add fuel to the fire:
"Although the students don't know much about Lingwu, at least they still understand the truth. With the fluctuation of the sword's spiritual power, I'm afraid that I haven't just stepped into the threshold of spiritual martial arts. Moreover, the students originally wanted to exchange the credits they had accumulated for Lingwu, and if the credits were not enough, they would accumulate them in the future. Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Li would force him to buy and sell, and the student naturally refused. However, he grabbed me by the collar and told me to get out, saying that if I didn't know what to do, I would have to teach the students a lesson. ”
In the end, the student had no choice but to leave. But the things given by Master Liang were so precious that the students had no choice, and when they heard that the ink disciple happened to be here, they came to seek justice. ”
With a sad look on his face, Wang Yun finished narrating the matter. At this point, the performance of the small report has come to an end.
I have to say that Wang Yun's performance was too clumsy. The two teachers are not stupid, there are so many problems in Wang Yun's words, if you dig deeper, it will be full of holes. However, the two teachers looked at the Lingwu in front of them, which was inferior to bullshit in their eyes, and the three words on it that were particularly dazzling, and did not choose to pierce Wang Yun, but quietly waited for Wang Yun to finish.
In addition, Mo Disciple and Qian Shi knew about Wang Yun, a very smart and clever soul in Liang Luojia's words, would say that he was born with a token worth 60,000 credits?
However, they knew that the process was not important, the important thing was that what was presented in front of them now was this God King Sword with the three words Li Xia Huang written on it!
Mo Tu had a cold face, and his disgust for Wang Yun was not hidden in his eyes. He said to Master Qian, "See if the token is with him, if so, take back his logo and go to the earth fire cave to guard for three years." ”
He put down the sentence, and without waiting for everyone to speak, he walked away.
Wang Yun looked at his back and shrugged his shoulders in the face of Yan Ru's grateful and helpless eyes in shock. He knew very well that with the character of the Mo disciple he had known, he must be disgusted by his methods, and he had already prepared for this.
It wasn't until Mo Tu walked away that Master Qian withdrew his gaze and looked at Wang Yun. He smiled bitterly and said, "Wang Yun, right." ”
Wang Yun hurriedly saluted, "Hello Teacher Qian Qi." ”
Qian Qi accepted this gift calmly and shook his head, "Hey, when I talked to Liang Luojia before, he praised you in his words, saying that you are very clever and have a way of dealing with life beyond your peers. When I saw it today, it was worthy of my name. ”
Wang Yun was just about to speak, Qian Qi turned his head, looked at the tongue of fire gushing out of the quenching pool, and said with emotion: "Li Xiahuang is a person with average qualifications and insufficient heart. The reason why he was able to become a master craftsman was because of our acquiescence. His father used to be a teacher in my 100 Gong Department, so one thing gave his life for the school palace. Therefore, we let his father's last wish for his son to be a craftsman. Two years ago, when he successfully tempered a spiritual martial art, we gave him the outermost house so that he could have a place to live here. ”
He sighed and walked towards the hall where the two had come, "But after all, we hurt him." ”
