When Zhang Yun saw this, he had a comprehensive judgment on the monster's strength:
"It has golden eyes, and its skin is extremely hard and has a metallic texture. It is difficult to be harmed by ordinary attacks. It has a habit of living in groups. There are kings among them. Its actions are unified and its intelligence is extremely high."
"The entrance of the cave is built next to the 'Purple Flame Orchid'. Monsters value it as much as their lives. If you want to get the 'Purple Flame Orchid', you must first find a way to get rid of them."
Thinking of this, he didn't want to stay for long, so he fixed his body, spotted the position of the wooden pile more than 20 meters above the ground, flicked the "dagger" with his right hand, flew out, and accurately tied a knot on the wooden pile.
Pull the soft rope with your hands to make it very stable, use both hands to climb up quickly with your body.
After performing the ritual for more than a dozen times, I saw the rope fixed on the stone wall. I first found a safe cave to meditate and recover, then I used Qinggong and body skills, grabbed the rope with both hands, and returned to the ground in one go.
At this time, the sky outside was already dark.
As soon as Zhang Yun returned to the ground, he meditated beside the Emperor's Pit to regain his power.
An hour later, Zhang Yun opened his eyes, looked at the rope hanging on the stone wall, shook his head, and thought:
"It's better to leave the rope down. It takes too much time and energy to go down. When we come back to pick the 'Purple Flame Orchid' in a few days, time will not allow it. I hope the rope will not be damaged.
Come on! Looks like I have to go home and prepare several hundred meters of hemp rope in case of emergencies."
Zhang Yun first went back to the hut to tidy up a little, and then returned home early in the morning. Mr. Han was naturally very happy to see him back from the mountains!
The neighbor Aunt Li helped prepare meals. The second aunt lost her relatives after the origin, and she regarded Zhang Yun as her own since she was a child. It can be said that Zhang Yun survived on the second aunt's milk, so Zhang Yun also relied on the second aunt very much.
Most of the housework is done by my second aunt, making it look like a family!
Mr. Han counted the ten thousand-year elixir he brought back as if he had found a treasure, and he drank and exhaled from time to time. He looked like an old child!
When they heard that he had returned to the village, the neighbors came over to greet him and help his second aunt cook.
The young people practicing martial arts in the village regarded him as their idol! Knowing that he was back, several people brought over the prey they had caught in the morning, including pheasants, hares, and even a pangolin!
Mr. Han knew that Zhang Yun didn't like to talk, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said happily: "It's so rich! Pangolin is a good thing! Not only is the meat delicious, but the scales are also a good medicinal material. This medicine has been discontinued for a long time. Thank you.
You guys!"
Although several young people were similar in age to Zhang Yun, seeing his excellence, except for his fourth uncle's son Zhang Liang, no one else dared to joke or play with him. They only had envy and admiration in their hearts!
Zhang Yun was also very depressed because of this. How he longed to have a few close friends with whom he could talk openly! Who doesn’t want to have a wonderful childhood?
His parents died young, and the villagers were prejudiced against him. Children did not like to play with him when he was a child. Although he later used practical actions to change the villagers' view of him, he always felt that his childhood was somewhat regretful!
When he saw the adoring eyes of these young people looking at him, he couldn't help but smile knowingly and proactively asked: "It's still very early for lunch. Since you are here, can I give you some pointers on your skills?"
"
Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing his words, with expressions of excitement and joy on their faces.
Zhang Yun first asked everyone to practice the martial arts they had learned, and after giving some pointers, he asked everyone to talk about the problems they encountered during the practice of internal skills, and he answered them one by one.
The people who had been instructed by him all seemed enlightened, as if they had found a treasure, and ran aside to practice on their own.
Seeing that it was almost lunch time, the eyes of those at the back were full of anticipation, and more and more people came running after getting the news.
When Zhang Yun saw this, he said embarrassedly: "Let's all leave now! I won't go into the mountain for the last ten days or eight days. From tomorrow on, I will give you two hours of guidance every morning. I will let my fourth uncle arrange the specific groups.
Bar!"
After that, he said to Zhang Liang next to him: "Liangzi, go home and ask your fourth uncle to come to my house for dinner. I have some things that I want to talk to him about, and I also want to drink two glasses of rice wine with him. You have to come back too!"
Zhang Liang said: "Okay! I'll call my dad over right now."
After saying that, he turned around and shouted to the reluctant crowd: "Let's all disperse. It's time to go home for dinner. You will all go to the martial arts training ground in the evening. My father will arrange for you to be divided into groups."
After hearing what Zhang Liang said, everyone began to disperse slowly.
After a while, Zhang Liang came back, followed by his fourth uncle Zhang Heng. Zhang Yun first greeted his fourth uncle.
At this time, the second aunt also set the table, and everyone was seated immediately. There were more than ten dishes on one table, including stewed pheasant, braised hare, pangolin stewed mushrooms, steamed bacon, stir-fried bamboo shoots...
…What a sumptuous lunch!
Zhang Yun put on a mouth-watering look like Brother Pig, making everyone laugh. The whole family laughed and had a great time!
First, he filled his grandfather and fourth uncle's glasses of home-brewed rice wine, and then filled up his own and Zhang Liang's glasses, and then started to change glasses and start drinking happily. I remembered that I hadn't had a meal with my family for a long time.
Yes, I am really happy today!
This old yellow rice wine was brewed by my grandfather himself, and was mixed with several rare medicinal materials. Drinking it can strengthen the body, and the alcohol content is not high, so my grandfather has made Zhang Yun drink it in moderation since he was a child.
It was the first time Ryoko drank. Out of curiosity and eagerness, she drank very quickly at first. However, after three cups, her eyes became blurry. She wanted to drink more but was stopped by her fourth uncle.
Zhang Yun, his grandfather, and his fourth uncle were drinking wine and chatting, and occasionally turned to pick up food for their second aunt.
When Mr. Han talked about the elixir he collected from the mountain, he looked excited and excited: "Yun'er, where did you get so many elixirs that last ten thousand years? Is there any danger?"
Zhang Yun didn't want to make the old man worry, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Grandpa, don't worry, there won't be any danger. There are so many in the mountains, it's like a small medicine garden. I have left many 'tinders' so that they can continue to grow in the mountains."
Well, I will collect whatever medicinal materials you need when the time comes, but there are not many of these elixirs that are tens of thousands of years old."
Hearing what Zhang Yun said, Mr. Han was in a better mood: "Haha, there are many more! There are also these ten thousand-year elixirs, each of which is a treasure of heaven and earth. You cannot use the medicine easily, otherwise it will enrich the natural wealth.
!”
"I have separated them and preserved them in different ways according to their medicinal properties. I will first look up some ancient prescriptions. If there are suitable ones, I will use them to refine the medicine. Otherwise, I will not waste it if you kill me. I will keep you when I am old.
Use it later!"
After saying this, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up with a smile.
However, Mr. Han's expression was not hidden from Zhang Yun's eyes, which strengthened his determination to collect the fairy medicine!
After clinking another glass of wine with his grandfather, he looked at his fourth uncle and said, "Fourth uncle, I met these apprentices you taught today. They are really good! The basic skills are very solid, and the internal strength has also made some achievements. It seems that it will be better in the future."
In more than ten years, a group of martial arts masters will appear in our Zhuangzi. When the time comes, Fourth Uncle, you will lead them to the outside world to have a try, how majestic it will be!"
After saying these words, Zhang Yun unconsciously looked up at the sky outside the window, his heart seemed to fly out, and he nodded secretly: "The outside world is waiting for me!"
The fourth uncle quickly said modestly: "It's not all your fault, I'm just helping you to supervise them!"
"As for the outside world, forget it! I have never thought about leaving Zhuangzi in my life, so I'll let you young people do it! Good men have aspirations in all directions, and my fourth uncle supports you to go and have a career outside!"
When Mr. Han and his second aunt heard this, they looked at each other with melancholy on their faces.
Zhang Yun saw this in his eyes and quickly comforted him: "Grandpa, second aunt, don't worry, I have no plans to leave yet, and I can't worry about leaving now. Let me think about it after I have done some things!" At this time, Zhang Yun said:
A trace of determination flashed in Yun's eyes.
Mr. Han put his heart back in his stomach after hearing this, and his second aunt was busy picking up vegetables for Zhang Yun.
Zhang Yun, his grandfather, and his fourth uncle exchanged cups, and the sound of laughter and clinking of glasses filled the whole wooden house. The family finished lunch in such a happy atmosphere.
After the meal, Zhang Yun pulled his fourth uncle into his cabin and closed the door. The fourth uncle drank the most today and looked drunk.
Zhang Yun asked: "Fourth Uncle, I have something to ask you. Does anyone in our village have a weapon that is dangerous? Like the kind of sword mentioned in the book that can blow hair, cut iron like mud, and can pierce iron."
A wooden spear or something!”
When Zhang Heng heard this, his eyes suddenly widened and he said, "Xiaoyun, what do you want to do? What are these weapons for?"
Zhang Yun quickly said: "Fourth Uncle, I found a very rare medicinal plant, but there are a group of ferocious beasts guarding it. The skin and flesh are too thick. I can't cut them with an iron sword, so I can't collect the medicine. No,
I came back to ask you to help me think of a solution, Fourth Uncle knows everything in our village!"
Zhang Yun said half-truthfully, not forgetting to flatter his fourth uncle!
When Zhang Heng heard this, he raised his head and thought:
"I think I heard Tang San, the blacksmith in the village, say that when he went into the mountains, he picked up a piece of meteorite iron. When he came home, he polished it into a spear head and set it on the wooden handle. I heard him boast that he could pierce through the thick iron plate on the back of his hand, but everyone
When I asked him to try it, he was reluctant to give it up."
"You and I will go take a look later. Their family has been a blacksmith in the village for generations. Maybe they have some other collections!"
Zhang Yun was naturally happy after hearing the news, and immediately took his fourth uncle to Tang San's blacksmith shop at the edge of the village.
The two talked about the origin, and Tang San was also very happy. His son was an admirer of Zhang Yun. Hearing about Zhang Yun's magic made his ears feel calloused! He thought to himself: "If I give him my meteorite spear head to use,
He won’t be buried! My son will be very happy if he finds out.”
So he quickly went back into the house and took out the gun tip.
Zhang Yun took it over and held it in his hand. It was heavy in his hand. The whole tip of the gun was black and cold, and it looked very sharp!
Walking outside the house, he saw a big tree in the distance that was surrounded by two people. He secretly used Xuan Gong on his right hand, raised his hand and used the gun tip as a flying knife to shoot out. The cold light flashed and the gun tip was nailed into the tree.
Several people walked under the big tree and took a closer look. They saw that the tip of the meteorite spear was deeply embedded in the trunk of the tree. Judging from the hole shot by the tip of the spear, the tail end was two feet deep from the bark of the tree.
Zhang Yun stepped forward, drew out his iron sword, stabbed it out and circled around the hole, then drew out his sword and picked it up, and the gun tip returned to his hand. This series of miraculous skills brought the villagers who were following behind to watch the fun.
Everyone was stunned!
Zhang Yun handed the spear head back to Tang San's hand, then shook his head and said, "Maybe the hardness is good, but it's not sharp enough. Thank you!"
Seeing that Tang San wanted to say something else, he quickly picked up his fourth uncle and walked back.
The fourth uncle didn't say anything along the way, as if he had something on his mind. Zhang Yun didn't bother him, and the two of them quickly returned to Zhang Yun's cabin.
After sitting down, the fourth uncle suddenly said: "Yun'er, there is something that may be useful to you, because it has been too long and I didn't think of it for a moment. The scene when I saw you shooting out the gun made me suddenly think of something.
.”
"Your grandma...that is, my mother has something that she brought from her parents' house. When I was a child, I dug it out of the box when I was playing with your father and uncle, and then my grandma scolded me.
"
"Later, when your father asked again, she revealed the origin: the name of this weapon is 'Gongshu Shennu'. Your grandma said that their ancestor of the Guo family was a general who commanded thousands of armies at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty.
, likes to collect various weapons, and the one I am most proud of is this 'Gongshu God Crossbow'!"
"The 'Gongshu Shennu' is said to be the king of all crossbow weapons at that time. It was made by Master Lu Ban, a famous craftsman from the Spring and Autumn Period. It can fire nine iron arrows continuously, and its rate of fire and penetrating power are so powerful that it is invincible!"
"Because the production technology was quite exquisite, there was no way to mass-produce and use it in the war at that time. They were all used as collectibles in the treasure houses of some big shots."
"Now she is the only descendant of the Guo family in the village, so her mother's family naturally passed this thing on to her. Maybe it's been too long, and your grandma has long forgotten this thing. Wait for me first
Go back and ask your grandma and I’ll get back to you tomorrow!”
Zhang Yun's eyes lit up with enthusiasm when he heard this, Lu Ban! Gongshu Ban! What a resounding name! What a legendary figure!
The name of Master Lu has been mentioned many times in ancient books, and it is said that the artifacts he made are all extremely miraculous and wonderful! I can't help but look forward to the "Gongshu Divine Crossbow" in my heart!
After his fourth uncle left, Zhang Yun calmed down and took out his long-lost manuscript of "Secrets of the World of Immortal Cultivation", turned to the back, and read it carefully.
