Chapter 5 Arsenal
Master Yu was also very pleasantly surprised after listening to Yu Dafu's report, this time the Yu family posted a notice to recruit people, although he was allowed to work with a high salary, but he never thought that there would really be a master of Niu Zhengying's level to take refuge, after all, this is only a small county town in the east.
Although the Yu family is a big family in Pan'an County, compared with those big families in the world, they are just a rich man. Real masters will never come to this small county town at all, let alone take refuge in service.
Now it is a big surprise to hear that there is a master who can defeat Niu Zhengying who is willing to play in the Yu family. Although it sounds like this person's origin is a little unknown, since Niu Zhengying sees that this person is not a traitor, there shouldn't be much of a problem.
Yu Hongfa and Niu Zhengying have been friends for decades, and they are deeply convinced of this Master Niu's vision.
Master Yu immediately asked ** to set up a banquet and personally invited Shi Ziling to come over to pick him up. During the banquet, the Yu family was very attentive to the master of Shiziling, and Master Yu even promised a generous salary of five gold coins per month.
Shi Ziling had no idea about the value of gold coins at all, but looking at the envious expressions of everyone around him, he also felt that it was probably a high reward. He was even more flattered by the hospitality of everyone, after all, in his opinion, it was already a great favor for the Yu family to take him in, a person of unknown origin.
Shi Ziling immediately said that if Master Yu needed it, he would definitely do his best.
Of course, Master Yu is very happy, in this troubled world, force can almost decide everything, the Yu family can have such a young master in charge, since its strength has increased greatly, and in the future, it will be a stable family dominance in this Pan'an County......
In a wing room on the east side of the Yu family's compound, Shi Ziling, who had just had dinner, was sitting at the table in a daze, and on the table in front of him was the booklet from Kato Hawk.
Shi Ziling has just finished reading a description of "Soul Dementoring**", which not only contains the cultivation method of Soul Dementoring**, but also introduces the power and taboos of this method.
Looking at it, Shi Ziling unconsciously took the token in his arms again.
This small token looks inconspicuous, the texture is like jade and not jade, like wood and not wood, but every time Shi Ziling holds it in his hand, there is always a trace of wonderful feeling that will come to his heart, it seems that this token is like a long-lost old friend, I feel that there is an indescribable Shu Tai in the whole body, and the spirit seems to become extraordinarily refreshing.
After flipping through this booklet, he now roughly guessed that at the crocodile pond that day, Kato Taka should have used the "Dementor **" on himself, and it was the most powerful one that could only be used after cooperating with the "Dead Night Token". But for some reason, he was attacked by divine power and unfortunately died on the spot.
Shi Ziling recalled the feeling that he had lost his soul after seeing Kato Taka staring at him with a strange light and muttering a mantra that day, and he couldn't help but feel a little palpitating, and at the same time very strange.
According to the records in the booklet, this 'Dead Night Token' is not only a token of the master, in addition to enhancing the power of the "Dementor **", there are other wonderful uses, but Kato Taka himself is not very good at using it. It is said that this thing is a psychic master, and only a true destined person can give full play to his wonderful use.
Seeing this, Shi Ziling couldn't help but feel excited, feeling that he seemed to be quite attached to this token, and it was unknown if it might be used in the future. But on second thought, the top priority now is to learn to make reasonable use of the strange heat flow in your body.
In the conversation with Niu Zhengying and the Yu family, Shi Ziling has learned that whether the force is strong or not is quite important in the current Mingyue Continent, and the reason why the Yu family values him very much is that he defeated Niu Zhengying.
But Shi Ziling knew in his heart that he was able to defeat Niu Zhengying, to a large extent, it was just an instinctive reaction, and he couldn't use the powerful energy contained in his body freely, one was not good, but he was afraid that it would hurt the innocent.
It seems that he has learned so-called kung fu or martial arts, but unfortunately he can't remember how to use it at all. Although the booklet in his hand has a cultivation method about "soul dementoring**", it seems to be more about a kind of profundity on the spiritual level**.
As for the basic kung fu of going into battle against the enemy, such as the Xuanyin Finger, the Yin Wind Palm, the Inner Strength Heart Method, etc., although it is mentioned in the booklet, there is no specific cultivation method, and it is recorded that these specific martial arts secrets are stored in the main altar of the "Dead Night Gate" on the East Fence Island.
Although Shi Ziling is very interested in cultivating the "Soul Dementor", he feels that the top priority at the moment is to master some basic skills of self-defense. He was thinking about whether he should go and ask Master Niu for advice when there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
Shi Ziling put away the booklet and opened the door to see, it turned out to be the fat housekeeper Yu Dafu.
Yu Dafu walked into the room with a smile and asked with concern: "Brother Shi is still used to living here? Our master said that it is really an honor for our Yu family that a master like Master Shi is willing to join our Yu family. ”
Shi Ziling hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Where is it, you are so polite, this room is clean and quiet, and it is very spacious, it is really good and comfortable, thank you very much." ”
"Alas, I'm alone, and I'm a little confused, and I'm grateful that you can afford to give me an errand. If there is any place where I can be useful in the future, please feel free to ask, and I will definitely do my best. Steward Yu, don't be polite to me, just call me Shiziling, I don't dare to be the master. ”
Yu Dafu was very happy to see that there was no master in this Shiziling, and said with a smile: "Okay, Ziling, I'm here to inform you that in three days, we have a batch of congratulatory gifts that will be sent to a distant relative's house in Songhu City. ”
"Oh, that's good," Shi Ziling replied, "but I don't have much experience, and I don't know what to prepare." ”
Yu Dafu nodded and said: "This time, with Ziling, you and Niu Lao, two masters to protect the formation, I think I will definitely have a safe journey." You don't have to worry about food, clothing, and accommodation, we've got you covered. By the way, do you need any special blades or hidden weapons or anything, although our Yu family is not a big family, but the general blade hidden weapon arsenal is still very complete, Ziling, if you need it, I will take you to pick a few to take advantage of, and you may not be able to use it on the road. ”
"What ...... this?"
Shi Ziling thought about it, in his current situation, if there is really something to do, he will always be more down-to-earth if he has a weapon, so he said: "It's okay, since it's a long trip, it's really necessary to bring a weapon." But, to be honest, I can't remember what weapon I'll use, well, then I'll ask the butler to take me to the arsenal and have a look. ”
At that moment, Shi Ziling followed Yu Dafu to the backyard, and along the way, the children of the Yu family greeted him politely when they saw Shi Ziling.
Although he has only been here for two days, the Yu family has already known that with him as a young master, the news that Niu Zhengying, the number one master in Pan'an County, was shocked by his palm in their minds has already spread throughout the Yu family, and many young Yu family children are full of awe when they look at Shi Ziling.
Shi Ziling was in a daze, but he felt that everyone in the Yu family was very polite to him, and sighed in his heart that although he had lost his memory, he was still quite lucky to find a place to live in the Yu family.
When he arrived at the arsenal, Yu Dafu took out the key from his body, opened the door, and motioned for Shi Ziling to come in and choose at will.
Shi Ziling entered the door, only to see that the size of this arsenal was smaller than the martial arts hall of the last competition, and all kinds of blades were neatly placed on the weapon racks against the wall, and most of the weapons looked very bright, obviously often taken care of.
Shi Ziling casually picked up a matching knife in front of him, pulled it out and looked at it, and then inserted it back. Then he walked to a nearby row of shelves with spears, picked up a spear, shook it, and put it back.
Coming down in a circle, whether it was swords, sticks, knives, or darts, Shi Ziling basically picked it up and waved it a few times, looked at it and put it down again.
Yu Dafu next to him was a chronic sub-person, and he was not in a hurry at all, and after reading Shi Ziling, he smiled and asked, "Ziling, it seems that you haven't found anything you like, right?"
"Well......" Shi Ziling frowned and said: "I originally wanted to try which blade has a better feeling in my hand, maybe I will remember if I have practiced this before, but after trying it, I don't seem to feel anything, alas......"
"Well, why don't we take a look at Neku. Yu Taifu said.
"Neku?"
"Yes, it's in that little door," Yu Dafu said, gesturing in the direction of a row of spear racks.
"Most of the weapons in there are bought from Songhu City at a high price by our master, there are not many of them, basically they are some swords, but the quality is better than these outside, the Qingfeng sword that Master Niu is used to use is picked in the inner library, let's go to the inner library to have a look." ”
"This ......" Shi Ziling was a little hesitant, and there was also a row of long swords on the weapon rack outside, which also looked good. As for the quality, in fact, he doesn't have any score in his heart, even if the sword in it is better, but if he can't use it, wouldn't it be Lang Fei?
Yu Dafu thought he was polite, and hurriedly said: "Ziling, don't worry, our master has ordered, no matter what is in the arsenal, as long as you like it, just use it, don't be polite." Originally, when you finished looking at the weapon rack outside, I was going to show you the inner library. As he spoke, he took out the key and opened the small door.
Shi Ziling thought that since he had already come, let's take a look and talk about it, so he followed Yu Dafu into the inner library.
The inner warehouse is not big, there is no such long weapon rack, only two long cabinets. The one on the left was a dozen or so swords of different lengths, and the one on the right was like a bookcase, with no weapons but a few books.
Shi Ziling was a little strange, how could there be a bookcase in this arsenal? He picked up a thin book casually, only to see that it read "Yu Family Boxing Book".
Yu Dafu said on the side: "These books are the martial arts classics of our Yu family, including internal strength, fist, swordsmanship, etc., although they have been passed down for many years, they are all ordinary introductory kung fu. ”
"Our Yu family has never had any masters before, since Master Niu came, the Yu family has now changed to Niu Lao's kung fu. The younger generation, even the internal skills are also Master Niu's five elements magic skills. It's just that these martial arts classics are the ancestors of the Yu family after all, and they are not easy to throw away, so they have to be kept here. ”
Shi Ziling's heart moved when he heard this, and he said to Yu Dafu: "Then can you let me study it?"
"Huh?"
Yu Dafu was a little confused, and said: "Ziling, you want to read these martial arts classics of our Yu family, aren't you? Even Master Niu is not your opponent, what is there to see about these superficial introductory kung fu? The people of our Yu family have long stopped reading it." ”
Shi Ziling smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I just want to watch some basic ** to see if I can remind myself of some previous things." You know, I can't remember a lot of things in the past, and I want to see if I can find anything from the martial arts that can bring back my memories. ”
"If it's convenient, I want to read a few more martial arts classics here in the three days before I leave, even if I can remember a few more kung fu that I have practiced before, maybe I can still use it on the road." ”
"What about this......" Yu Dafu was a little noncommittal for a while.
He said: "These are not some treasure books, you have to look at Ziling, and it's not a big deal." It's just that these books are the family heirlooms of the Yu family after all, so let's do it, Ziling, you look at it here first, I'll go and tell our lord to see if I can let you take these books back to your room to read, I think the lord should agree. ”
Shi Ziling hurriedly nodded yes, so Yu Dafu went to report to Master Yu.
