The shopkeeper of the ready-made clothing store anxiously followed Li Qiang in praying to God and praying to the Buddha secretly: "My Silver Bodhisattva bless me."
Cheng Zizhong introduced: "This is the best and largest silver shop in the city, Zhao Jibao Silver Jewelry Gold Shop. Shopkeeper, please don't stay and go in to say hello."
The shopkeeper of the ready-made clothing store hurriedly ran in and shouted: "Master Zhao, I have brought you an important guest, why don't you come out to greet him?"
"Hey, it's you, Fatty Qi, please slow down and stop falling. Which distinguished guest is here?" A thin and capable middle-aged man greeted with laughter: "Isn't this Mr. Cheng? You are a very busy man, how can you be free? Come to the shop." His tone was warm.
"Old monkey, I can't come and play"
Cheng Zizhong also pointed at Li Qiang with a smile on his face and said: "I brought a big customer here, how can you thank me?" At the same time, he introduced to Li Qiang: "He is Zhao Degui from Zhao Jibao Silver Decoration and Gold Building, who is famous in Hanlin City. "I didn't know that there was a bank owned by him in the capital." He added, "This is Li Qiang. Mr. Li has just come to Hanlin for the first time. You two are very close to me. Hey, old monkey, you haven't invited Mr. Li in yet."
Zhao Degui nodded and bowed and let the group of people into the inner hall to sit down for tea.
Since the master of the prefect's Yamen personally accompanied him, it was obvious that the chief patron Zhao Degui was greeting him with great joy. The four little girls whom Mr. Li called his younger sisters asked his family members to come out and get some snacks to accompany them while they talked.
"The shop has recently made a batch of gold and silver jewelry. Master Li, are you practicing martial arts? I just brought in three high-quality immortal stones from the capital. Take a look."
Li Qiang nodded and placed two palm-sized pieces of top-quality jadeite, a top-quality rainstone, and four diamonds of different sizes on the coffee table. He asked, "Old Zhao, do you think these are worth anything?"
When Cheng Zizhong saw it first, he took a deep breath and said in surprise: "The best immortal stone, emerald, and precious stones, look at it, old monkey." His voice changed.
Mr. Zhao was busy asking the clerk to get the jewelry when he was startled by Cheng Zizhong. He turned around and saw something on the coffee table and was dumbfounded. He had never seen such beautiful pearls and jades after working in the jewelry store for so long.
Fatty Qi, the shopkeeper of the ready-made clothing store, had his narrow eyes suddenly widened with a greedy light. He wiped his saliva and kept saying in his heart: "Budhisattva of Dispersing Wealth, please be merciful to me. I will start from the path of wealth." Climb over. The price I quoted is too low."
Li Qiang lightly knocked on the coffee table, coughed and laughed secretly: "I was so excited when I got it, it was just a few stones."
In fact, Li Qiang was already very wealthy when he was on Earth, and his need for material items would drop sharply when he reached the Spiritual Silence stage. It takes a lot of effort to restrain the temptation of material life. If you fail, not only will you not be able to maintain the spiritual silence stage, but even the heartbeat stage will be in vain. You must practice again from the fusion stage. Li Qiang's starting point is very high. Zi Yanxin itself is an unconscious Nascent Soul. It is like he has the Nascent Soul first and then makes up for the missing parts. His mentality will naturally change with the degree of diligence.
"Invite the old man to come quickly." Zhao Degui excitedly ordered the waiter.
"His old man is a cultivator, a famous half-immortal, and the real backstage master here." Cheng Zizhong told Li Qiang quietly.
Zhao Degui picked up the Yubin Stone and said, "This is the first time I have seen this kind of top-quality fairy stone." He looked at it carefully and said, "This Yubin Stone is worth at least one hundred thousand taels of silver. If it is even more expensive in the capital, .”
"The old man is here," a waiter announced.
A tall old man walked into the house. His snow-white head was gathered on top of his head. His two long eyebrows were like two unsheathed swords inserted diagonally into his wide temples. His beard was neatly combed like a steel needle. The old man gave people a very bold look. Li Qiang fell in love with him as soon as he saw her.
As soon as Mr. Zhao entered the door, he saw Li Qiang and stared at him without looking anywhere else. He didn't even seem to hear Cheng Zizhong's greeting.
Zhao Degui panicked. He had never seen the old man look like he was crying and laughing at the same time. It was very strange. Zhao Degui shouted: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Mr. Zhao waved his hand to stop Zhao Degui and asked: "Are you already integrated? It's not like you." He used an honorific and a frightening tone.
Li Qiang was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized that Cheng Zizhong had just said that he was a cultivator. He smiled and said two words: "Nascent Soul."
Everyone in the room was dumbfounded and didn't understand what the two of them were talking about.
"Plop." Mr. Zhao knelt on the ground and touched the ground with his forehead: "Please give me some guidance, Master. I was just consecrated last year and it seems to have stalled recently. Please accept me as your disciple with mercy, Master."
Zhao Degui was so stupid that his father even knelt down and he couldn't stand. He knelt down with a "plop" sound. Then a series of "plop" sounds were heard. It was when the waiters saw that the boss had knelt down and stopped standing. They all knelt down. .
Li Qiang could not help but wonder who among modern Chinese people would kneel down and worship a living person except their ancestors and Bodhisattvas.
Just as he stood up, there was a loud bang next to him. Li Qiang was startled. The sound was so loud, it was like beating a big bull. He lowered his head and saw the fat shopkeeper of the clothing store kneeling on the ground. Li Qiang couldn't hold back his laughter and said, "Get up or I'll leave. Already."
Li Qiang walked to Mr. Zhao and helped him. Unexpectedly, this old man was really stubborn and refused to get up and kept saying: "Master is merciful, Master is merciful."
Li Qiang sighed helplessly and said: "Okay, okay, I'm merciful, I'm merciful, hurry up." He thought to himself: "It's not like this for the sake of cultivation." He didn't know how difficult it is to cultivate on this planet. In addition to consuming energy, you also have to spend a lot of money to buy fairy stones and visit masters. If you don't cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage in your lifetime, all your efforts will be in vain.
"Master, please take a seat." Mr. Zhao said respectfully.
Li Qiang screamed: "No, no, I don't dare to accept you as my apprentice. Please, please stop kneeling, please stop kneeling, can we learn from each other?" He thought to himself: I just sold some gems and ended up with an apprentice who was older than my father and took him out. How can I still mess around?
Cheng Zizhong was not surprised that Mr. Zhao became a disciple. After all, it was not a shame for a master to become a disciple. What was strange to him was that Li Qiang seemed to be afraid of others kneeling down to him, and he would be in a hurry as long as they knelt down to him.
Seeing Li Qiang refuse, he smiled and persuaded: "Listen to me, Mr. Li seems unwilling to accept a disciple."
Li Qiang's head was nodding like a chicken pecking at rice and he kept saying, "Yes, yes."
"And Mr. Zhao is determined to become a disciple."
Mr. Zhao said anxiously: "Don't call me Mr. Zhao, call me Zhao Hao. Master, you must accept your disciples no matter what, and I will worship you sincerely." The determination of his attitude made Li Qiang's hair stand on end.
"Then let Zhao Hao be Lord Li's registered disciple."
After a fierce struggle, Zhao Hao finally got his wish, and this old man in his seventies became Li Qiang's first named apprentice.
At Li Qiang's insistence, the jewelry on the coffee table was given to Zhao Hao's family as a gift. The Raindrop Stone was given to Zhao Hao for practice. The bank settled the debt of the clothing store. Li Qiang gave the cloak to Cheng Zi without hesitation. Then I picked out some accessories and other items for the four little sisters.
Li Qiang knows very well that "harmony" is necessary everywhere.
Li Qiang stayed only one night in the VIP room of the magistrate's office and asked to move to a hotel. It wasn't that he had any objection to Feng Kaiyun, he just wanted to know more about the local customs and customs, but he couldn't see anything in the magistrate's office.
Under Cheng Zizhong's mediation, Feng Kaiyun had no choice but to agree. Before Li Qiang left, he gave Feng Kaiyun and Cheng Zizhong and the four maids many gifts. Feng Kaiyun was a little surprised when he received the gifts. He didn't care what he gave. The important thing was that he saw Li Qiang. No ill will toward him.
Zhao Hao, an old apprentice, tried his best to invite Li Qiang to the Silver Building. Li Qiang also wanted to use his experience to inquire about the situation of Tianting Star. He also wanted to find a quiet place to practice some urgently needed equipment, so he followed him.
Zhao Hao was so happy that he was so busy in the silver building. Not only did he clean up the entire back garden, but he also specially found a few servants to serve Li Qiang. After everything was done, he followed Li Qiang step by step and waited for the master. 's teachings.
That night Li Qiang began to practice his first weapon. When he collected the materials and tools and returned to his residence, his old apprentice Zhao Hao refused to leave and insisted on staying in the house. He drove away the servants and closed the door and stood there religiously. The man on the side looked at Li Qiang intently.
Li Qiang was so angry and funny that he was too embarrassed to drive him away.
He first placed a defensive array in the room, activated it with his true energy, checked to see if it was correct, and then told Zhao Hao how to get in and out. He asked him to stand in the Kun position of the defensive array, because once he started practicing, the temperature in the defensive array was definitely not something Zhao Hao could withstand. Only the Yin angle standing in the Kun position was not affected. After all preparations were completed, he started the first practice.
Li Qiang is going to first practice a protective gear, a crossbow and a spear.
These three things were all in the bracelet that Fu Shan left to him, but they were all semi-finished products that had just begun to take shape and still lacked a lot of heat. Li Qiang decided to practice these three things first to gain some experience. After all, the training equipment was still important to him. first.
First, he took off his clothes and only wore a pair of small pants. He took out his protective gear, which was a diamond-shaped arm shield. It was only 30 centimeters in size and was silver-white with no patterns on it. He looked at Zhao Hao and reminded him: "I must be careful when refining weapons. Don’t bother me, just watch.”
Zhao Hao's Taoism has not yet reached this stage and he can't help but become nervous because he doesn't know how to practice.
Starry inner armor emerged from Li Qiang's body. Zhao Hao immediately understood why he had to take off his clothes. His shorts immediately turned into ashes, and the purple light reflected the whole room. The small silver shield hung in the air and shot out from Li Qiang's hands. The two purple flames kept burning.
Zhao Hao was stunned. This is the True Fire of Samadhi, also known as Heart Fire. Only those who have cultivated the Nascent Soul can have such powerful real energy. He thought: "It turns out that Master has already cultivated the Nascent Soul and is already among the gods."
Zhao Hao is actually ignorant. Cultivators in the world of cultivation never think that they are gods, and there are so many cultivators who have cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage. Cultivators who can cultivate to this point generally avoid secular society and go to the heaven to cultivate. The star is not a planet where cultivators gather. It is really a planet dominated by cultivators. The Fate Star where Fu Shan is located can only be said to be an accident when Li Qiang appears here.
Li Qiang's spirit has been completely integrated into the small silver shield. He found that the silver shield was a small protective formation with no energy in it. Because the manufacturing method was recorded in the Jade Eye Slip, it was not difficult for him after careful adjustment. Li Qiang began to input energy.
Because Li Qiang’s foundation is that the fire attribute of Zi Yan’s heart is of great help in refining weapons. There are two types of weapon refining: “Refining” and “Heart Refining”, which are very different. “Refining” uses tools. For the cauldron, the fairy stone is used as the base fire and the true energy is used to control the cultivation. "Heart Refining" is to use the heaven and earth as the cauldron, use the samadhi true fire and the true energy to control the practice. It is the supreme method for refining the best equipment.
Energy gradually filled the silver shield. Li Qiang used the "Broken Word Technique" to cut off the true essence, used the "Consolidation Zi Technique" to seal the formation, and used the "Zhuan Zi Technique" to make the formation flow slowly in the silver shield. Although he was not very skilled, it still went smoothly. 's completed.
Li Qiang suddenly had an idea and decided to add another formation and an attack formation to the silver shield.
At this time, we can see the importance of the storage bracelet. One by one, the immortal stones emerged from the hand and were thrown into the silver shield. They are: four water-based immortal stones, two for their softness, two gold-based immortal stones, one for their sharpness, and one fire-based immortal stone. Use it to explode. Since this is the first time I made it, some bumps and revisions were unavoidable, but I finally finished it.
After the core part was completed, Li Qiang decided to make the appearance of the silver shield more beautiful. The first image that came to mind was "dragon". After all, the totem of the Chinese nation will always be rooted in the hearts of every descendant of Yan and Huang. Li Qiang felt that it was very satisfying to use the dragon as the shield.
It was extremely easy to forge the shield with the true fire of Samadhi. The shield turned into whatever he wanted. Li Qiang then made the edge of the silver shield into a flame shape and embedded some gold and silver wire for embellishment. Finally, he was done.
The old apprentice Zhao Hao felt that it was an eye-opener for him. Even though he had stayed there for seven days and seven nights, he was still very happy.
Li Qiang opened his eyes and looked at the arm shield in his hand, with pride overflowing on his face.
The 30-centimeter silver arm shield has changed its appearance. The silver is glowing with golden purple. The dragon on the shield is slightly raised, its teeth and claws are dancing, as if it is about to fly away. The flame-shaped edge of the shield seems to be really burning. Li Qiang himself was amazed and doubtful: " I can’t believe I made such a beautiful arm shield.”
When he raised his hand, the arm shield automatically attached to his left arm. He immediately felt that the arm shield and himself were integrated into one. As long as he activated the true energy, the formation in the arm shield was activated immediately. Li Qiang wanted to try its power and saw Zhao Hao. He smiled happily.
The old apprentice Zhao Hao held his famous weapon "Giant Wind Sword" and raised eight points of his strength and shouted: "Look at the sword"
The sharp sound of the giant wind knife cutting through the air made people's heads numb. Li Qiangyi's protective array of boom shield began to activate a purple-gold dragon full of flames surrounding him. The attack array also activated "Ping" and "Boom".
The giant wind knife shattered.
Li Qiang secretly shouted that he couldn't do it and hurriedly stopped the attack formation. He grabbed Zhao Hao by the collar and threw him out. "It was so close that he almost finished his game. It's really a joke to tell you first." This apprentice was beaten to death by the first arm shield I made."
Zhao Hao's knife was like cutting on a steel pillar. What frightened him was that the steel pillar would be knocked upside down. When the giant wind knife shattered, the force of the shock made his whole arm numb and the tiger's mouth was bleeding. He watched the purple gold dragon rushing towards him. Lai secretly said: "It's over." Suddenly he felt his collar tighten and he flew out like a cloud.
Sitting on the ground, Zhao Hao was full of emotions: "My martial arts is outstanding among the Three Kingdoms in the Green Basin. How can I be considered a master? Master only used a small arm shield to try and I couldn't even make a single move." It would have been unthinkable if Master hadn't taken action after passing it in."
Li Qiang felt apologetic and helped Zhao Hao up and said, "Oh, I broke your weapon. How about I make a new one and give it to you as an apology."
The old apprentice Zhao Hao was surprised and happy. The weapon sent by the master must be a treasure from the immortal family. "Thank you, master. Does this arm shield have a name?" Seeing Li Qiang shaking his head, he said: "This disciple has a name in his heart, but I don't know it, master."
like or not"
Li Qiang said curiously: "Tell me and listen."
"How about calling it Red Flame Dragon Shield?"
Li Qiang cheered loudly: "Okay, I'll call you Red Flame Dragon Shield if you like, haha."
