Chapter 36: See Xiao Meng Again

"Bang bang bang-"

Dense gunfire rang out, and the wooden targets 100 meters ahead were pierced one by one. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

What caught Shang Bai's eyes was such a scene. He nodded, with a look of relief, patted King Kong's shoulder next to him and said, "Very good, it didn't disappoint me." It seems that it won't be long before we can go out and find resources. ”

This is a vacant lot on the edge of the lake in Canglan Valley, and it has now been turned into a shooting range by the people of the Tianji Society. Every day, King Kong brings members of the guard department here to practice target shooting.

Yes, the Tianji Society has successfully created the mysterious weapon mentioned by Shang Bai in the novel "Thirty Years in a Foreign Land" - the gun!

Shang Bai originally thought that it would be impossible to build a gun without two or three years, after all, he knew too little. However, he still underestimated the creative power of this world - after he came up with the idea, it only took three months for the Tianji Academy to successfully create a rifled gun with incredible power.

After all, this world is different from the world in his dreams, this world has a suffocating history and an extremely splendid civilization, but it is not a scientific and technological route. However, there is better quality steel here, and there are better technicians (the cultivators of the cultivation realm are much more powerful than the technicians of the mortal realm), as long as there is a practical idea, it is easy to make a finished product.

Of course, it can be successfully manufactured in three months, and it is also a loss to the cooperation with Wild Zen Fang. Like the rifled gun, the rifled gun was made with the help of the foundation building monk of the Wild Zen Workshop. Some delicate parts are not something that the Tianji Society can manufacture by itself. In terms of gunpowder, experienced alchemists provided advice, and the gunpowder prepared was more powerful than the black gunpowder provided by Shang Bai.

People don't organize the technology tree, not because they don't have that ability, but because they don't look down on its power.

A total of 1,000 guns were made by the Tianji Society, and there were countless bullets. However, these were all materials from the mortal world, and they didn't cost much spirit stones.

After the guns were made, they were delivered to King Kong's security department, and then they came here every day for target training. After everyone has trained, they have to go out of the mountain to find resources.

It's already September, and the one-year benefits that Mixed Yuan Kendo has given to new beginners are coming to an end. In the past few months, many clubs have gone out many times to find resources, and there have been many deaths and injuries. The Tianji Society is one of the few clubs that has not gone out.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Tianji Society, although the number of people was the largest, and the senior brother Shang Bai took the lead, in the eyes of many people, it was just a grassroots club with little interest. The reason is very simple - those who join the Tianji Society are poor. No one expected that this grassroots community gathered in the poor would actually attract a huge amount of investment in Feixian City, and it would be prosperous, and its comprehensive strength was much better than that of those local tyrant associations. It's a pity that the Tianji Society is not recruiting people now, otherwise the members can easily break through the 1,000-person mark.

In the past few months, Shang Bai's cultivation has also made great progress, and the twelve meridians of his body have been penetrated, even the eight veins of the Qi Sutra are only four that have not been penetrated. If you also penetrate those four strange veins, you have already entered the middle stage of Qi training, and many spells can be cast. All he can use now is the Heavenly Fire Divine Power, but his power and speed are much stronger than before. The sword technique has also improved a lot, although it has not yet reached the point where the sword hurts people, but it can also use the Guiyuan sword to glide in the air for more than ten zhang and then retract it - because it can't be too fast, the lethality is still several points worse than throwing the sword directly.

With the support of a large number of resources from the Wild Zen Workshop, the development momentum of the Tianji Society was very good, and most of the members entered the early stage of Qi cultivation and became real monks. However, correspondingly, Shang Bai also incurred heavy debts because of this - the current Tianji Society only has investment, no income.

Wild Zen Fang is not a charity, it sets an interest rate of 30% per year, and it is also a way to roll profits. Although Shang Bai was confident in his future, he also had a headache when he looked at the debts that were increasing day by day. This is still during the period when Mixed Yuan Kendo issued benefits to newcomers, and he had already taken on so many debts, and when the benefits stopped, he didn't know how many debts he would have to bear. Now seeing that the strength of the Guard Department has increased greatly, and the day of going out of the mountain to find resources is approaching, I am very happy in my heart, and I can't help but praise King Kong.

In fact, the pressure on King Kong in the past few months has been the greatest--the Guardian Department is the department that consumes the most resources among the four major departments of the Tianji Society, and it is also a simple consumption, without any benefit. The logistics department can still have a slight surplus relying on the Shanhai Building, and the Pill Department and the Talisman Department can now make a little bit of the lowest level of finished products to pay off the debt through a few months of internship in the Yezen Workshop. Only the guard department is constantly consuming and consuming, and there is no benefit at all. What's more, the resources required by the body refining cultivators are at least twice as many as those of other cultivators. In the past few months, the personal cultivation of the members of the Guardian Department has increased significantly, but they have not made an inch of merit to the Tianji Society, and they have been more or less criticized. If it weren't for Shang Bai's fear of losing his life, he pressed him to prevent him from going out of the mountain gate to find resources, he would have led the team out a long time ago.

Now that the Guards Department has the ability to go out of the mountains to find resources, King Kong is even happier than Shang Bai - he finally has the opportunity to prove his ability!

The boy clenched his fists.

"Get them ready, and tomorrow we'll go. Shang Bai patted King Kong on the shoulder, "Tell me, do you have confidence?"

"Yes!" King Kong replied loudly.

Shang Bai looked at the members of the Guard Department and raised his voice, "Tell me out loud, do you have confidence in tomorrow's actions?"

"Confident !!" The members of the Guards replied loudly.

The next morning, the Tianji Society finally took the step of going out of the mountain gate to find resources.

It was the twenty-first day of September.

A year ago, Shang Bai entered the mountain gate under the leadership of Lu Kongcheng and became a disciple of the outer sect of the Mixed Yuan Kendo. Now, he was going to take the members of the Heavenly Machine Society out of the mountain gate to find cultivation resources.

This time, it was led by him and King Kong, followed by hundreds of people, mainly members of the Guardian Department. The other three also sent people to follow, but the number of people added up to a dozen.

Their destination was in the Valley of Dream Bears, more than a hundred miles east of the mountain gate, where a medicinal herb called Dragon's Blood Vine grew, and now that it was time to harvest, their goal was to harvest Dragon's Blood Vine.

The dragon blood vine is the main medicinal material for refining the pill blood qi pill that has a great effect on the body refining cultivators, and the purchase price of the major pill shops in Feixian City is three catties of a spirit stone. In the "Vast Geography Examination" sold in Moxiang Building, the outer gate of the Mixed Yuan Kendo, it is mentioned that there are the most such things in Dream Bear Valley. However, there are often wild bears in the area of Dream Bear Valley, and ordinary people can't get close to it. Some time ago, a team called Qunying Society organized dozens of people to go to harvest, and they were attacked by wild bears, resulting in nine deaths and five injuries. Without a certain amount of force, going there is not to earn spirit stones, but to send them to death. And those who have that kind of force, at least a monk in the middle stage of Qi training, will not take a fancy to the three catties of that piece of spirit stone, so the resources of that piece are still well preserved.

The Tianji Society's trip this time was carefully planned, and they finally chose the Dream Bear Valley. With the musket team of the Guards, the threat of wild bears is negligible. And the medicinal materials that can be exchanged for a spirit stone for three catties are already good things that newcomers who have only recently entered the Qi Cultivation Realm can find.

For this operation, the Tianji Academy also rented ten storage bags from Yezenfang at the price of ten spirit stones per day, plus Shang Bai's own three, for a total of thirteen storage bags. If you can collect the dragon blood vines that can fill these thirteen storage bags, you can also exchange them for a lot of spirit stones.

Walking out of the mountain gate, everyone began to tie the magic talisman. Dream Bear Valley is more than a hundred miles away from here, and it would take a long time to walk without the Divine Talisman.

Shenxing talisman is generally made of bamboo pieces, also known as bamboo horses, one charm and two pieces, tied to the sole of the shoe, after urging, you can walk like flying, is the most common walking tool used by low-level monks. Generally, the Shenxing talisman is divided into five times the speed, ten times the speed, and thirty times the speed.

Just when hundreds of people were tying up the magic talisman outside the mountain gate, a large group of people came out of the mountain gate. Shang Bai glanced sideways, but was stunned for a moment - it was actually someone from the Jingzhao Society, led by Wang Jing and Meng Zhaohui. It seems that they also went out of the mountains to find resources.

Wang Jing, the president of the Jingzhao Society, is the son-in-law of a Xiuzhen family in the Great Qin Empire, and some of his ancestors are the core disciples of the inner gate of the Mixed Yuan Sword Dao, and he also relied on this relationship to enter the Mixed Yuan Sword Dao. With such a big backer, coupled with the support of his family, his Jingzhao Association can be regarded as a wealthy community in the novice village of the Mixed Yuan Kendo Outer Gate, and now he actually has to take the risk of going out of the mountain to find resources, which makes Shang Bai a little puzzled, and he wonders: "Could it be that the resource dilemma of the novice village has even affected those local tyrant associations?"

Shang Bai was thinking nonsense here, but Meng Zhaohui on the other side had red eyes. At the beginning, Meng Zhaohui was defeated by Shang Bai in Tianji Park, his clothes were burned down, and he performed a Guoben drama in front of everyone's eyes, which can be said to be a loss of people. Now when he saw the enemy, he naturally blushed, and sneered: "Isn't this our senior brother Shangbai? Why, if you don't hide in Canglan Valley to cultivate today, you have the courage to come out and bask in the sun?"

Shang Bai didn't bother to pay attention to him, and only nodded to Wang Jing: "What a coincidence, Senior Brother Wang, you also came out." ”

Wang Jing said with a smile: "It's quite a coincidence. ”

Meng Zhaohui saw that Shang Bai actually ignored him, and suddenly felt that his self-esteem had been hurt by tons, and said angrily: "The surname is Shang, I asked you, did you hear it?"

"Zhaohui, don't be rude to Senior Brother!" Wang Jing scolded Meng Zhaohui, and apologized to Shang Bai: "Zhaohui is young and ignorant, please don't be embarrassed by Senior Brother." ”

Shang Bai smiled and said, "What am I worried about with a little child?"

When he said this, he still didn't even look at Meng Zhaohui, Meng Zhaohui was even more annoyed, and jumped to his feet and said: "Shang Bai, are you deaf? Can't you hear me when I talk to you? I tell you, don't pretend to be stupid in front of me, I won't eat you!"

Shang Bai shrugged his shoulders and looked at Wang Jing innocently: "Senior Brother Wang, did I do something wrong?"

Wang Jing scolded Meng Zhaohui with a straight face: "What do you look like when you are so excited? Can't you say it well if you have something to say? If you want to speak well, can the senior brother ignore you?"

Meng Zhaohui took a deep breath, drew his sword, pointed at Shang Bai and said, "The surname is Shang, I want to challenge you today!"
