Looking at the back of Emperor Yuan Feng, Zhou Shu felt a little puzzled.
Don’t they all say that Emperor Yuan Feng was a good man and a benevolent king?
Why do you feel a little moody?
"Ahem——"
Yin Changhao coughed twice in a pretentious manner, and when he saw Zhou Shu looking towards him, he spoke.
"Zhou Shu, was it you who rescued Wuyou?"
"No."
Zhou Shu shook his head, "It's my senior brother - I mean, it's the unknown senior."
"Oh."
Yin Changhao nodded. His brother had a brain convulsion and forgot to ask important questions.
"Let me ask you, who injured Wuyou, did you see it?"
Yin Changhao continued to ask.
Yin Wuyou is the little princess of their royal family. She was injured, how can she let it go so easily?
Do you really think that Yin Changhao can't kill anyone?
"I heard from my senior brother that he is Xiao Shunzhi, the great master of the Wei Dynasty."
Zhou Shu thought for a moment and said.
When he killed Xiao Shunzhi, there should be no outsiders present, but Tianji Villa's methods are unpredictable, who knows if they can know.
Sooner or later, the news of Xiao Shunzhi's death will be made public, so there is no need to hide it.
Anyway, there is an unknown master taking the blame.
"Xiao Shunzhi?"
Yin Changhao's eyes widened, and his whole body was filled with killing.
"Xiao Shunzhi has been killed by my senior brother."
Zhou Shu said without blinking.
Now he talks about his senior brother with ease. Not to mention, this vulgar plot that he learned from reading novels in his previous life is quite useful.
"Xiao Shunzhi, is he dead?"
Yin Changhao feels a little dry.
Xiao Shunzhi's cultivation was as good as his, and the two had fought many times, with neither winning nor losing.
Now that an old rival had died like this, Yin Changhao felt no joy at all. He only felt cold all over.
If Wuming can kill Xiao Shunzhi, then he can kill Yin Changhao.
Since being promoted to the first rank, Yin Changhao has not had this feeling for many years.
He suddenly felt that the first-level martial arts was not so safe.
"Brother Zhou——"
After a while, Yin Changhao finally said, he is not the emperor, so what does he want to do to save face?
"Um, did your senior brother give Wuyou any pills? Then——"
Zhou Shu glanced at Yin Changhao. He had experienced Yin Changhao's shamelessness before. He even gave him half of his day to refine the stone.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Shu knew what he was thinking.
Fortunately, he was able to keep his face down, so he could even shout.
"Yes."
Zhou Shu said, "My senior brother gave her a realm-breaking pill. However, this realm-breaking pill is only useful for warriors below the first level of martial arts. Prince, you don't need to think about it, it is useless to you."
"Besides, I don't have it on me either."
Zhou Shu spread his hands and said.
"Only useful for people below the first level of martial arts?"
Yin Changhao said with some disappointment, "Brother Zhou, what state is your senior brother in now?"
Yin Changhao, this brother of Zhou, becomes more and more fluent as he calls him.
According to ancient legend, there is another world beyond the first level of martial arts, but I have never heard of anyone breaking through the first level of martial arts.
Now that a strong man who is suspected to be above the first level of martial arts appears, how can Yin Changhao not be curious?
"Your Majesty, don't you think you're asking the wrong person when you ask me?"
Zhou Shu said helplessly, "Look at me, Ling Yuan is only at the eighth level of martial arts. Do you think I can know the realm of my senior brother? Even if he tells me, I won't understand."
"Okay then."
Yin Changhao said, "I want to visit your senior brother, can you help me contact him?"
"Sorry, I can't contact you either."
Zhou Shu refused and said, "My senior brother Shenlong is nowhere to be seen. Unless he comes to me, otherwise, I won't be able to find him."
"Then when he comes to find you, tell me..."
"No problem."
Then you just wait, he will not appear again until every year of the monkey.
"Brother Zhou, if you have time later, how about you show me the Eighteen Shocking Swords?"
Zhou Shu: "..."
……
Return to the Baron's Mansion from the Daxia Palace.
Mi Zhifu came to apologize immediately. His eldest young master thought he had taken good care of Zhou Shu, but Zhou Shu was kidnapped, but he was frightened.
After Zhou Shu comforted him for a long time, Mi Zhifu left the Baron's Mansion in an uneasy mood.
Before leaving, Mi Zhifu also wanted to arrange a escort team for the Baron Mansion, but before Zhou Shu could refuse, he was rejected by Ma Fengzhang, the commander of the Divine Catcher Division.
The Divine Catcher Division has specially dispatched several Divine Catchers and more than a dozen Head Catchers to guard the Baron Mansion.
This is not a treatment that ordinary men in Jianguo County can enjoy.
Of course, this is also because Ma Fengzhang is afraid.
If Zhou Shu disappears again, he, the commander of the Divine Catcher Division, will no longer have to do this.
Even though Zhou Shu is back now, the matter this time is not over yet.
Who kidnapped him, how did they do it, and why was the dead soldier from the General’s Mansion?
There is no final conclusion yet on these matters.
Before this matter comes to a conclusion, Ma Fengzhang must not let Zhou Shu get into trouble again.
Zhou Shu didn't take these things seriously.
If they are willing to protect, let them do it. This is better, and he will have less trouble.
I took a comfortable bath and then slept.
Sleeping from day to night, and from night to day, Zhou Shu opened his eyes but did not get up.
In the air in front of him, there was a book that only he could see, turning the pages.
From the moment he killed Xiao Shunzhi until now, Zhou Shu was finally in the mood to look through the map of the divine weapons.
When he killed Xiao Shunzhi before, he received feedback from the Divine Weapon Atlas that his cultivation of the Eighteen Shocking Swords had reached the stage of perfection.
This was the first situation he encountered after getting the map of the divine weapon.
At present, the feedback he has received from the Divine Weapon Atlas is Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu, Heavenly Sword Sword Technique, Golden Bell Cover, Five Mountains True Shape Visualization Map, Realm-Breaking Pill and the Eighteen Shocking Swords.
In addition, there is a reward brought by the Daxia Dragon Bird Sword - the secret recipe for the standard weapon casting.
There is almost no limit to the skill of the Heavenly Sword, and there is still no time for perfection.
The dragon-elephant prajna skill has reached the twelfth level, and it is not too far away from the thirteenth level.
The Golden Bell Jar has also reached the eleventh level, and is only one step away from completing the twelve levels.
The visualization of the true shape of the Five Mountains is similar to that of the Heavenly Sword, both of which cannot be seen reaching perfection.
On the contrary, it is the Shocking Eighteen Swords that appear last, because killing a first-level martial artist directly leads to the state of perfection.
Zhou Shu has always been curious, what will happen if one of the rewards in the Atlas of Divine Weapons is no longer available?
"Giant Que Sword!"
Zhou Shu thought silently in his heart, and the Atlas of Divine Weapons turned to the page of the Giant Que Sword.
Soon, the page of the Giant Que Sword appeared in front of him.
The content of this page has not changed much.
At the top is the title of Giant Sword.
In the middle is the image of the giant sword.
Further down, there is the record of killing enemies.
【Upgrade:8/100】
Although the feedback from killing a first-level martial artist is huge, it only counts as one kill.
To upgrade the Giant Que Sword, you still have to complete ninety-two kills.
This made Zhou Shu a little depressed.
The biggest difference between premium weapons and standard weapons is this. You can unlock upgrades by killing them, and these kills can also bring rewards at the same time.
Moreover, as long as one hundred pieces of the standard weapon are cast, the next weapon can be unlocked. However, the reward of the Daxia Dragon Bird Sword is also the secret recipe for the standard weapon, so it does not necessarily have to be one hundred pieces.
It's just that the limit of one hundred pieces is still there. Only the one hundred standard weapons forged by yourself can bring you feedback.
So for premium weapons, how do you unlock the next weapon?
Zhou Shu frowned slightly. The Eighteen Shocking Swords had been completed. If the Giant Sword succeeded in killing him again, wouldn't there be no feedback from the Divine Weapon Atlas?
If this is really the case, it would be a bit depressing.
However, it does not appear on the map of the divine weapon now. It seems that the change can only be seen after the Giant Que Sword successfully kills again.
"I have a headache. Do you want me to go out with the giant sword to kill people?"
Zhou Shu patted his forehead.
He is not very interested in killing people. Now that the Juque Sword has passed Minglu, it is no longer appropriate to hand it to Sun Pingping.
It’s easy for Sun Pingping to explain, just saying that he failed to forge high-quality weapons.
However, the biggest problem with keeping the Juque Sword in your hands is that if you want it to meet the upgrade conditions, you have to kill the enemy yourself.
As a weapons master, he can't carry his sword all over the world to kill enemies, can he?
"I can only slowly think of a way. The giant sword cannot fall on my head, and there are no other high-grade weapons on the divine weapon map. It seems that I have to continue to hold the title of weapon-making apprentice-"
Zhou Shu sighed deeply.
As he was thinking, suddenly there was a shout from in front of him.
"Sir, the imperial edict has arrived."
……
When Zhou Shu came to the front hall, he saw the familiar Eunuch Zhao again.
Eunuch Zhao is a good man. Every time he comes, he always brings benefits to himself.
He greeted Eunuch Zhao with a smile, "Good morning, Eunuch Zhao, have you eaten?"
Eunuch Zhao was taken aback by his way of greeting him. This lordship was really strange.
"Lord Lao is concerned, our family has eaten."
"Eunuch Zhao, what orders does your Majesty have?"
Zhou Shu said that he forgot to ask yesterday whether Yang Hong had given the secret recipes for making weapons to Yang Hong.
Now that he cannot forge high-grade weapons for the time being, he can only continue to forge high-grade weapons. He must make good use of those secret weapons forging.
"It's a good thing."
Eunuch Zhao smiled and said, "Sir, no, we should call you Marquis from now on."
Eunuch Zhao sighed in his heart that Zhou Shu's imperial edict to seal the male from Kaiguo County was personally delivered by him.
How long has it been since now?
One month?
One month at most!
Then he became a marquis?
This is probably the fastest-promoted marquis in Daxia.
Counting all the marquises in Daxia, which one did not win the title of marquis after decades of fighting on the battlefield?
Even when the country was founded, promotions were not promoted at such a speed, right?
But his achievements still leave people speechless.
The military merit of recovering the two states was something that few people could match in the millennium history of Great Xia. In terms of military merit in the current dynasty, only General Meng was probably the only one who could compare with him.
Is this genius?
Comparing people to each other is really annoying.
"Zhou Shu has received the decree, and hereby Zhou Shu casts the Daxia Dragon Bird Sword and has made great contributions to the country. He is granted the title of Marquis of Youzhou!"
Eunuch Zhao began to read out the imperial edict.
Marquis of Youzhou?
Zhou Shu was a little dissatisfied. This name didn’t sound very nice. How domineering would it be to be named a champion or something?
"Eunuch Zhao, your Majesty made me the Marquis of Youzhou, isn't it because you want to drive me to Youzhou?"
Zhou Shu knows very well that Youzhou is now in devastation. After what happened last time, it is not certain how many people there are now.
What is he doing in Youzhou now?
"No, Mr. Hou is overthinking."
Eunuch Zhao shook his head with a smile and said, "Our titles in Daxia are all fictitious, and there is no need for vassalage. The Marquis's seat is Youzhou, and it requires the Marquis to really go to Youzhou. Youzhou, and there is also Youzhou."
Let Mu take care of it."
To put it bluntly, Zhou Shu, the Marquis of Youzhou, just took benefits and did not work.
This is not bad.
Zhou Shu had not yet thought about how much taxes Youzhou could have in its current state.
"Master Marquis, Your Majesty said that the standard of the residence of the Marquis is already high. This time, I will not change the residence for you. Later, our family will have someone change the plaque..."
Eunuch Zhao continued.
Zhou Shu curled his lips, but didn't care.
His current mansion is quite big, and he has not been to many places yet.
In the past, he might have wanted to stay away from his immediate boss, but now, his mentality has changed...
"Eunuch Zhao, let me ask, what rank is this Youzhou Marquis?"
Zhou Shu knew little about Daxia's official position system. In his memory, in ancient times, the rank of the marquis was different in different dynasties.
"Marquis, in our Daxia, is the second rank."
Eunuch Zhao explained, "Wang, Gong, Hou, Bo, Zi, Male, Wangjue is a super-grade, Duke is a first-grade, Marquis is a second-grade..."
Second grade?
I used to be a fifth-rank male from Jianguo County, but now I am directly promoted to the third rank?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
A second-grade official, in his previous life, was he already at a level where he could raise a national flag?
Thinking about it this way, Zhou Shu didn't mind that the title of Marquis of Youzhou was ugly. The title of Emperor of Yuan Dynasty was still very good.
From now on, we will also be a well-known figure.
It would be great if I could officially become a weapon maker——
Even though he has become a marquis, he is still qualified to wait for death.
But Zhou Shu has not forgotten his roots. Casting weapons is his foundation. Even if he becomes a marquis, he will not leave the workshop of the Forging Division.
"Master Marquis, your current status is no longer suitable to be the head of a workshop. Your Majesty wants to change your job to Master Marquis..."
Just as he was thinking of this, Eunuch Zhao suddenly spoke.
"Change errands? No!"
Zhou Shu said categorically, "I only know how to forge soldiers. What else can I do if I leave the Forge Division? Your Majesty doesn't want me to go into battle, right? I won't go, and my senior brother won't agree!"
Eunuch Zhao's face darkened. Your senior brother? The one who killed the Imperial Master of Wei in legend?
He is a close confidant of Emperor Yuan Feng, so he naturally knows this news.
"Your Majesty didn't mean that-"
Eunuch Zhao said.
"What does that mean?"
Eunuch Zhao has a deep resentment in his heart. It cannot be said that His Majesty wants you to stay away from His Highness the Princess...
You can't say that. Your Majesty just wants to discuss it with Lord Zhou. After all, if he is transferred from the Forging Department, it will be a loss to Daxia.
Since the Marquis is unwilling, then His Majesty will probably give up his unreliable ideas.
"Your Majesty just wants to ask for your opinion, Lord Marquis. After all, the head of the workshop of the Weaponry Division is really not worthy of your status, Lord Marquis..."
"If you are willing to buy a lot of money, I would like to be the head of the workshop, wouldn't it?"
