The art of forging weapons has always been passed down from father to son, master and apprentice, and will not be passed on to outsiders.
Emperor Xuan's name is very famous. I don't know how many weapon masters have asked the royal family for help, but they have not been able to learn the inheritance of Emperor Xuan. How can Zhou Shu learn it?
A flash of jealousy flashed in Shi Songtao's eyes.
He really couldn't understand why Zhou Shu could learn the inheritance of Emperor Xuan?
He was just a weapon-making apprentice before, right?
Do Your Majesty and Her Royal Highness the Princess regard him with such special regard?
Shi Songtao subconsciously raised his head to look at the high platform, and happened to see Her Royal Highness the Princess looking towards him.
Shi Songtao felt a little warm in his heart, Her Royal Highness, are you encouraging me?
For a while, Shi Songtao became more motivated again. What about the inheritance of Emperor Xuan? Emperor Xuan was strong in martial arts and the art of forging weapons, so that’s it!
The art of forging weapons of my family of historians may not be worse than that of Emperor Xuan!
Shi Songtao turned to look at Zhou Shu and said, "No wonder, Lord Marquis, your weapon-making skills are so good. It turns out that you have won His Majesty's favor and learned the inheritance of Emperor Xuan."
Zhou Shu glanced at Shi Songtao strangely, I am good at making soldiers, what does it have to do with Emperor Xuan?
The emperor favors me because I am powerful, not the other way around.
He said that his weapon-making inheritance came from Emperor Xuan, but it was actually nonsense. Although Yin Wuyou had the intention to give it to him, Emperor Xuan's weapon-making inheritance had not yet had time to act.
Speaking of which, Zhou Shu actually learned the art of forging weapons in this world.
That was the Liang family's weapon-making technique given to him by Liang Hongxiu.
However, the Liang family's weapon-making skills retained by Liang Hongxiu are only basic theories, and the most important positioning point star technique has been lost.
Therefore, he cannot be said to be a descendant of the Liang family's weapon-making skills.
In fact, Zhou Shu's art of forging weapons comes from the Atlas of Divine Weapons.
The Divine Weapon Atlas uses various weapons casting methods to allow him to master everything needed for the art of weapon casting. That is an almost flawless art of weapon casting.
As for locating point stars, for Zhou Shu, there is no need for those skills, he sees with his eyes!
It's just like looking at Feng Shui. Shi Songtao and the others have to judge Feng Shui through the trends of mountains and geography, but Zhou Shu can see luck, and he can see where the Feng Shui treasures are at a glance.
Which one is higher or lower, no need to say more.
"Brother Shi, it's about to begin."
Zhou Shu said.
On the high platform, Emperor Feng of the Yuan Dynasty and his ministers were already in place.
"Now, please invite our elite soldiers from Daxia to come to the stage!"
Emperor Feng of the Yuan Dynasty gave a speech, then raised his hand and said loudly.
"Obey!"
A group of weapon masters responded one after another.
"Master Hou, please."
Shi Songtao gracefully made a gesture of invitation, then jumped up, turned over in the air, and landed on the high platform. His body was light and beautiful.
There are many people like him.
Those who can become Weapon Masters are those with the lowest level of martial arts training and have already reached the first level. They don't miss any opportunity to perform. Even on stage, they all use their best light-body techniques.
Just one move on stage made Zhou Shu feel like he was watching a sideshow.
It was too late, but in fact, just a moment later, almost everyone had already climbed onto the high platform.
When Zhou Shu was amazed, he was the only one left under the high platform.
The eyes of Emperor Yuan Feng and the ministers all fell on Zhou Shu. Yin Wuyou, who was sitting next to Emperor Yuan Feng, couldn't help but close his eyes.
Did he forget what he came to do? Why does he look like he's watching a show?
Zhou Shu felt the eyes falling on him one after another, and he also reacted. He was so interested in watching these people show off their magical powers that he forgot that he also had to go on stage.
Zhou Shu smiled awkwardly and raised his feet.
That high platform is as high as one person, whether it is high or low, it is not low either.
In fact, there are steps on one side, but no armorer walks up the steps honestly.
Zhou Shu took a look and realized that if he wanted to take the steps, he had to go around to the other side. Everyone was waiting for him now, so going around would waste time.
So he directly raised his feet and stepped towards the high platform.
As he took steps, there seemed to be clouds of clouds appearing under his feet. Every time he took a step, there was a cloud of clouds dragging the soles of his feet.
In this way, step by step, he walked up to the high platform like a leisurely stroll, walked to his casting furnace, and cupped his hands towards Emperor Yuan Feng and everyone else.
The whole place suddenly became a little quiet.
Just now, a group of armor masters were jumping up and down like monkeys. Compared with their non-smoking body movements, it was a world of difference.
Emperor Yuan Feng looked at Eunuch Zhao beside him and asked with his eyes.
"What kind of movement is this?"
Eunuch Zhao replied with his eyes, "I don't know either."
Yin Wuyou blinked his bright big eyes, and a strange color flashed in his pupils. How about being so chic?
Zhou Shu actually didn't want to stand out, he just didn't want to waste everyone's time.
Then he can only step on the clouds and ride the wind. If he wants to get on stage, he can’t just jump on it, right?
Walking on the clouds and riding the wind has this effect, what can he do?
"Ahem——"
Emperor Yuan Feng was the first to come to his senses. He coughed lightly and said.
"Everyone is already in place, let's get started."
There are more than a hundred military casting divisions who are eligible to participate in the military parade. It is naturally impossible for Emperor Yuan Feng and others to review them one by one.
Therefore, all the weapons forging divisions were carried out at the same time. In the end, Emperor Yuan Feng and others had to comment on the weapons they cast.
All the weapon masters saluted Emperor Yuan Feng, then each took out the weapons they had prepared long ago and began to perform the final step of counting stars.
As mentioned before, during military parades, in order to save time, the weapons casters will prepare the weapons to be displayed in advance.
Otherwise, it would be too late to cast troops on site.
We can't let Emperor Yuan Feng and others wait around for more than ten days or even several months.
They usually leave the last star untouched until they arrive at the scene and click the last star in public. The weapon is successfully forged and its power is revealed.
The other weapon masters are adjusting their breath and concentration, preparing for the final finishing touch.
Although there is only the last star position left, this step is very important. If you click it correctly, the weapon will be cast successfully.
If you click the wrong button, all your efforts will be wasted!
Point stars to weapons, but you will have no regrets. Once you point them, you will succeed or fail, and there is absolutely no room for regret.
Therefore, no armorer dares to be distracted.
Except Zhou Shu...
Zhou Shu can't be considered distracted, he was not at all.
He took off the wooden box on his back and laid it flat in front of him. Then he looked around with the same expression as before.
It’s as if the military parade has nothing to do with him.
"Did he finish casting the weapons in advance?"
Emperor Yuan Feng frowned slightly, but it was wrong to think about it. The weapon maker left the last star position to make the order on the spot. In addition to saving time and demonstrating the skill of weapon casting, the other reason was to prove that the weapon was forged by his own hands.<
/p>
Otherwise, if everyone brings a forged weapon, then who knows who made the weapon?
This is the rule of the military parade. Zhou Shu should not violate the rules so blatantly.
"Or is it that he is confident enough, so he is not in a hurry?"
Zhou Shu watched the movements of the weapons casters with great interest.
He has never seen the weapons forging masters forging weapons in this world before, and today is an eye-opener.
These methods of star positioning of the weapon masters are really varied.
There is a weapon maker who takes a small hammer and hits the weapon itself, and then puts his ear against the weapon to determine the last star point by the sound of the weapon vibrating.
Some weapon makers closed their eyes tightly and kept groping their weapons with their hands, as if they were groping their lover's skin.
There is also the weapon maker with a ruler and pen and paper, measuring the size of the weapon while quickly calculating on the paper...
Zhou Shu also saw Shi Songtao. Shi Songtao's movements were much more elegant than most of the weapon casters.
A long sword was placed in front of him, and he used his fingers to send out a stream of spiritual energy, which fell on the sword body.
As each spirit element falls, the sword body seems to turn into a musical instrument, and the jingling sound is like a piece of music, which is particularly pleasant to the ear.
Many people also saw Shi Songtao's appearance, and their faces showed admiration.
He is truly worthy of being a well-known weapon-making genius in Daxia. This technique is truly otherworldly.
Some people also looked at Zhou Shu subconsciously.
This soldier-making genius, who is no longer as popular as Shi Songtao, is now like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, looking around and not working on his own weapon-making at all.
Has he given up?
Everyone has some doubts.
"Zhou Shu!"
Zhou Shu was watching with enthusiasm, when suddenly a familiar voice sounded in his ears.
The voice was clear and sweet, with a hint of coquettishness?
He raised his head in confusion and caught Yin Wuyou's gaze.
"What are you doing!"
Yin Wuyou's voice continued to ring in his ears.
Zhou Shu looked around and saw that no one else seemed to have heard Yin Wuyou's voice.
Transmit the voice into the secret?
Awesome, my princess.
Zhou Shu glanced at Yin Wuyou with admiration.
Yin Wuyou has a black streak on his head, what kind of look do you have?
This princess reminds you not to be distracted! What does it mean when you look at me like this?
Why do you feel like you finished your homework as a child and your father looked at you with admiration?
"Everyone else is almost finished, why don't you start!"
Yin Wuyou said angrily.
Zhou Shu nodded.
I have to learn this ability to transmit sounds into secrets. It’s so advanced. With my current strength, it shouldn’t be difficult to learn, right?
Zhou Shu was thinking about it, and his hand fell on the wooden box in front of him.
"Pa-ta-"
Zhou Shu casually opened the wooden box.
Almost subconsciously, the eyes of Emperor Yuan Feng, Yin Wuyou, Eunuch Zhao, including General Meng Bai and others immediately turned to the wooden box in front of Zhou Shu.
They were all very curious as to what kind of weapon Zhou Shu forged this time.
The next moment, everyone's expressions were frozen on their faces.
Even the face of Emperor Yuan Feng showed a look of astonishment that could not be concealed.
Because there is nothing in the wooden box!
He came to the military parade with an empty wooden box?
Emperor Yuan Feng rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not dazzled.
The actions of the people around him were almost exactly the same as his, and everyone was rubbing their eyes.
Emperor Yuan Feng's expression became a little ugly. What did Zhou Shu mean?
"Zhou Shu, did you forget to bring your weapon?"
Yin Wuyou's anxious voice sounded in Zhou Shu's ears.
Zhou Shu raised his head and gave Yin Wuyou a reassuring look.
Yin Wuyou understood the meaning of his eyes, but the anxiety in his heart did not diminish at all.
Let me rest assured?
How can I rest assured?
This is in front of hundreds of officials!
If you make a mistake, how will you be able to gain a foothold in the future?
The other weapon casters were concentrating on completing their works. Emperor Yuan Feng and others did not speak for fear of disturbing the progress of those weapon casters.
Their attention was now completely attracted by Zhou Shu.
Bringing an empty wooden box to the military parade?
Or is this wooden box the weapon he forged?
Everyone wants to see what Zhou Shu wants to do!
Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Shu made a move.
I saw him reaching out and grabbing it from the large wooden box, as if he had picked up something.
But in the eyes of everyone, he was just showing off, and there was nothing in his hands.
The next moment, Zhou Shu took out a piece of heavenly stone the size of a grain of rice and threw it into the real fire.
Everyone's eyes were wide open. He still had to do a full set of acting?
Even though he has nothing, he still wants to waste a day or two refining stones?
Zhou Shu seemed completely unaware of everyone’s doubts.
He moved casually, and a drop of heavenly refining stone flew out of the real fire, and fell into the air under the control of Zhou Shu Lingyuan.
In the eyes of everyone, Zhou Shu was completely fooling around!
There is nothing in his hand. Is this star shining in the air?
And don’t you even need to position the stars?
Does he think everyone present is a fool?
Anger flashed in the eyes of some ministers. It turns out that the Marquis of Youzhou is also a person who deceives the world and steals his reputation!
It is simply a shame for Daxia to allow such a rat to be ranked above the court!
After this military parade, we will definitely impeach him!
Just when some ministers had such thoughts, the drop of heavenly stone had already moved into the air.
Suddenly, like a drop of water meeting a sponge, it suddenly disappeared into the air.
It feels as if it is really integrated into a weapon.
Can it really light up the air?
Everyone’s eyes widened.
The next moment, everyone seemed to see star roads emitting light appearing out of thin air. The light flowed and the star roads disappeared in a flash.
Then there was still nothing in front of them.
"This is?"
Everyone's pupils shrank. At this moment, everyone knew that Zhou Shu was not fooling around. He really had a sword in his hand, but they couldn't see it!
Lord Zhou, forged an invisible sword?
Or is it because they have problems within themselves that they cannot see the sword in Lord Zhou’s hand?
These big shots, who can cause earthquakes in the summer by stomping their feet, are all mired in self-doubt.
According to legend, there are artifacts that can only be seen by those with pure minds. Is it possible that the weapons forged by Lord Zhou have such effects?
Is it because our minds are impure that we cannot see the weapons in the hands of Lord Zhou?
Never let others know about this kind of thing, I can see it!
More than one minister said secretly in his heart.
