Chapter 1: The Magic Gun
The first rays of sunlight in the early morning finally shone in front of Lu Xiao'an's window over the towering peaks, feeling the vitality of the sun, Lu Xiaoan stretched his waist and jumped up from the bed.
Today is a good day, because what Lu Xiaoan has been tinkering with for half a year is about to come out today.
With excitement, Lu Xiaoan simply washed up and set foot on the path to the refining tower, but as soon as he walked to the square, he was stopped by the three senior brothers.
Lu Xiaoan's face changed, and he listened to one of them: "Senior Brother Lu, we haven't seen you for a few days, shouldn't you be deliberately avoiding us." ”
The other said: "Isn't it just to let you help a little once in a while, the same door should help each other, this is what the head said, are you avoiding us?"
The remaining one said, "It just so happens that we have something to do today, so you can help us clean up the square." ”
Lu Xiaoan didn't say a word, he had been in the business for ten years, and these people had bullied him for ten years. But although he entered the gate wall of the Duxian Gate, his qualifications were ordinary and he was not valued by the sect, so no one stood up for him.
The person who spoke first walked up to Lu Xiaoan, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't be so sad, today is the entry day of the new batch of disciples, and we won't need to do these chores in the future, you should be happy." ”
After saying that, the three of them laughed and walked away.
Lu Xiaoan gritted his teeth, and was just about to pick up the broom they threw on the ground, when he heard several people turn around and shout at him: "By the way, today is the ceremony of accepting apprentices, if this square is not cleaned, we will be punished, if we are punished, you should know what the consequences are." ”
Lu Xiaoan's waist that had just bent down instantly stiffened. has been bullied for ten years, and everyone will have resentment in their hearts, but Qianlu Xiaoan really can't beat them, so he can only swallow his anger. But now it's different, as long as he makes that thing, he will no longer be afraid of these three people.
Lu Xiaoan straightened up, he didn't pick up the broom on the ground. turned his head and took a look, and found that the three of them had already walked away, and they never thought that Lu Xiaoan would dare not help them sweep the floor.
"Humph!"
With a light snort, Lu Xiaoan also left directly.
The refining tower is not really a tower, but within a mountain peak, it uses the formation to pull the earth fire for the refining weapon.
As soon as he walked to the door of the Refining Tower, Elder Chen, who was guarding the Refining Tower, greeted Lu Xiao'an.
"Xiao An, it's so early today!"
"Elder Chen, morning!"
Lu Xiaoan hurriedly bent down to return the salute.
Elder Chen could be said to be the closest person to Lu Xiao'an in the sect, because he had been Elder Chen's apprentice for more than two years. And because Lu Xiao'an was studious and diligent, Elder Chen also had a good impression of him, so he would take the initiative to greet him.
If you want to become a refiner, you have to endure a lot of hardship, and this is a craft that can be practiced and perfected, and it takes a lot of time, so the time for cultivation will be reduced accordingly, so few disciples are willing to take the initiative to become an apprentice of a refiner, and even if they become apprentices, they will try to be lazy.
After all, what is the cultivation of immortals? Even if there is little hope, who doesn't want to live with the sky, in case he is a genius hidden in the crowd of living beings?
After receiving the door talisman of the refining room from Elder Chen, Lu Xiaoan went to the refining room on the lower three floors. As an outer disciple, the use of the refining room and materials all cost spirit stones, so Lu Xiaoan's savings in the past ten years have almost all been spent.
Coming to the refining room that he had been using before, Lu Xiaoan skillfully opened the ignition array, and took out the last small piece of refined iron from his storage bag.
When Lu Xiaoan started refining half a year ago, he failed many times and wasted a lot of materials, but now he is very proficient and can basically succeed at one time.
The temperature of the earth fire was quite terrifying, but the temperature in the refining room was not too high, because the formation channeled all the fire into the refining furnace.
The refining furnace in front of Lu Xiaoan was not big, only half a person high, and the bucket was thick, and when it was burned by the ground fire, he threw the refined iron into it.
Refined iron is much harder than ordinary iron, but it can quickly turn into molten iron under the calcination of earth fire. At this time, Lu Xiaoan threw a bright yellow and somewhat transparent stone the size of a little fingertip into it, which was a spirit guide stone.
Pure iron alone can't refine magic weapons, and if there are no other spiritual materials, you need to add spirit guide stones, so spirit guide stones are basically essential materials for refining low-level magic weapons.
After putting in the spirit guide stone, Lu Xiaoan stared closely at the furnace, and used the array charm to control the temperature of the fire, not daring to be sloppy in the slightest. After the two were completely integrated, Lu Xiaoan immediately turned off the fire, and then poured the molten iron from the furnace into a stone he had prepared a long time ago.
After waiting for a while, Lu Xiaoan directly smashed the stone, and then a cylindrical hollow iron pipe fell out of it.
This was not the end of the story, but when he got the iron pipe, he threw it into the furnace and heated it again, and this time he did not melt it again, but just took it out after it was burned red, and put it in the water. After repeating it a few times, Lu Xiaoan picked up the iron pipe and looked at it again and again, and looked at the spiral lines inside.
"It's finally done!"
Lu Xiaoan wiped the sweat from his forehead, packed up his things and left happily.
When he walked to the door of the Refining Tower, Elder Chen greeted Lu Xiaoan again, "Why did you come out so early today?"
Lu Xiaoan said: "Elder Hui, the magic weapon that the disciple wants to refine has been refined, so it came out." ”
"Oh?"
Elder Chen said, "Let me see what magic weapon you have refined in the past six months. ”
Lu Xiaoan hesitated for a moment, then took out the iron pipe that had just been refined from the storage bag and handed it over.
Elder Chen held this strange iron pipe and looked at it for a long time, but he really couldn't see what it was, and finally he could only ask helplessly: "Xiao An, what is this thing you have refined?"
Lu Xiaoan said: "I plan to use this to launch a hidden weapon." ”
"Launching a hidden weapon?"
Elder Chen was completely stunned.
Lu Xiaoan said a little embarrassedly: "Elder Chen, you also know that my qualifications are not very good, and my cultivation speed is slow, so I am afraid that I will be bullied in the future, so I want to practice some secret weapons to defend myself." ”
Elder Chen also probably knew something about Lu Xiao'an, so he didn't say much, handed him back the iron pipe, and said, "Don't be too arrogant, although cultivation emphasizes qualifications, it also emphasizes perseverance and chance, remember not to lose your enterprising spirit." ”
Lu Xiaoan nodded hurriedly and said, "Elder Xie's teachings." ”
Leaving the Refining Tower, Lu Xiaoan was reminiscing about Elder Chen's words all the way, especially the word chance.
Indeed, he Lu Xiaoan is very ordinary, and his parents have not expected much from him since he was born, so he was named Xiao An. But he was very lucky, the elders of the Duxian Sect who passed by their village ten years ago did not find a few children with the qualifications to cultivate immortals because of their poor performance, so they brought Lu Xiaoan, who was just qualified, back to the Duxian Gate to make up the numbers.
This is Lu Xiaoan's first chance.
If there is only this opportunity, Lu Xiaoan will most likely be just a qi practitioner all his life, and after cultivating for thirty years, he will be driven out of the Immortal Gate, and he will live a few decades longer than ordinary people in the world.
But one night three years ago, when Lu Xiaoan was practicing, a light suddenly shone on him. Since then, there is an extra thing called AI in his brain, also called intelligent lifeforms.
This AI told Lu Xiaoan that in the parallel universe, there were two highly developed scientific and technological civilizations that launched an interstellar war, and the AI civilization was defeated and defeated, and in a super energy explosion, the AI energy body was sucked into the wormhole, and then it came to this world and parasitized in Lu Xiaoan's body.
In the past few years, one of the magic weapons that Lu Xiaoan has been building is a thing called a pistol that the AI told him. Although things like pistols have become antiques in the AI world, the only thing that Lu Xiaoan and the foundation of this world can build is this thing at present.
Of course, this pistol is not the original pistol, after all, this is a world of cultivating immortals, so Lu Xiaoan and AI changed the pistol demon together, so that it can replace gunpowder with spells, but the specific power will have to be known after testing.
Back at his residence, Lu Xiaoan began to assemble the various parts that had been refined in the past six months, and the final assembled product was still very different from the original pistol.
First of all, it is a bit larger than a normal pistol, especially the position of the handle, which is to contain the fire charm and direct the power of the fire charm so that it does not explode.
Secondly, it does not have a trigger, because it is definitely impossible to use a firing pin to activate the fire charm, and it has to be activated by Lu Xiaoan's own spiritual power.
And then it also does not need to be unshelled, because the bullets of such pistols do not need gunpowder, so there is no need for cartridge cases, just a warhead. Of course, the warhead is also a specially refined magic weapon, just to increase its power.
Holding the results of his nearly three years of hard work, Lu Xiaoan's hands were trembling with excitement, and he couldn't wait to try its power.
"I don't think it's a pistol anymore. ”
This is AI talking to Lu Xiaoan.
In fact, Lu Xiaoan didn't care what it was called, so he asked, "Then what do you think it should be called?"
AI: "This is stimulated by spells, why don't you call it a magic gun?"
AI: "Forget it, it's too ugly, there is a word in our world called magic, which is very similar to your spells, so it might as well be called a magic gun." ”
Lu Xiaoan: "Wouldn't this name be too evil?"
AI: "No, it's pretty domineering, isn't it?"
Lu Xiaoan: "Okay, anyway, you taught me to refine it, the magic gun is the magic gun!"
