The chaotic noise outside did not affect Ye Zhongming. He and an old man were quietly sipping tea.
These teas are the specialty of Buru Secret Realm. After being fried by several members of Yunding who have mastered the peacetime tea-making technology, they have a rich tea aroma and a special and obvious sweet aftertaste. They are one of Ye Zhongming's favorite drinks.
Quoted often, it has great benefits for the body.
Of course, Ye Zhongming's feeling was not obvious. Firstly, because his physical fitness was too strong, this increase was of no avail, and secondly, he drank too much and was already used to it.
But that doesn't mean that other people will do the same. The old man in front of him was looking at the smell with surprise and envy.
"Genting, are all such good things?"
The old man put down his tea cup. He had already drank three cups in a row, and he was still a little unsatisfied.
Ye Zhongming smiled and said, "Mr. An is here, so naturally he has to bring out some high-end goods."
This old man with white beard and hair is none other than An Lao, the boss behind Chenguang Pavilion and the maker of the four dragon heads in Black Dragon City.
Mr. An laughed, touched his beard, and then said: "Zhuang Master Ye seems not surprised at all that I guessed your identity."
"Those pieces of equipment have my mark on them. Others don't care or don't recognize them, but how can I hide them from you, who is also a craftsman?"
Mr. An nodded and sighed: "I thought that even if I was not the best craftsman in the country, I would still be one of the best. But when I saw the equipment you made, and the equipment you made, there were also people on the national rankings.
Only then did I realize that the gap between those equipment and yours was so great that it made me feel desperate."
Ye Zhongming waved his hand: "Mr. An, you are too modest. Although I did not observe closely, even from a distance, I know that the four dragon heads you made are not ordinary purple equipment. They are connected to the structure inside the city wall.
It has four different attack methods, each with adjustable power. I even guess that if the energy can keep up, it should be able to pose a threat to nine-level lives."
Looking at Mr. An's shocked face, Ye Zhongming continued: "That ninth-level human Xiong King who always comes here to ask for sweets actually has some thoughts about the four dragon heads, right? Although the dragon heads are dead, they are still on top of you.
The special technique retains... nutrition. As time goes by and the energy within the city wall is nourished, this nutrition is constantly improving, making it more attractive to it, is that right?"
Mr. An couldn't open his mouth and was silent for a moment, "If I hadn't been sure that you had never been to Black Dragon City or seen inside the city wall, I would have really thought that you were involved in the production of the four dragon heads.
How could you tell?"
Ye Zhongming didn't speak. This kind of thing cannot be explained clearly in words. It is completely a kind of experience and intuition after he evolved to the top glory craftsman.
But one thing he didn't lie was that he really admired the Four Dragon Heads very much. Even Ye Zhongming himself could not guarantee that he could produce the same or similar equipment.
He really admired this old man An.
An Lao sighed, "There used to be a saying that the peak of debut is the peak. As for me, the first time I made purple equipment was my peak. From now on, I guess I will never be able to make equipment better than the Four Dragon Heads.
Already."
Seeing that Ye Zhongming wanted to comfort him, Mr. An interrupted with a smile, "What I said is true. The emergence of the Four Dragon Heads can be said to be the right time, the right place, the right people, and the materials are extremely good. At that time, I was just evolving to the advanced level."
The peak state of the craftsman also received a semi-finished energy connection base, which is why we have today's four dragon heads."
"In the future, even if I can advance further in the craftsman level, it will be impossible to find such materials and energy connection bases again. These are things that can be encountered but cannot be sought."
Ye Zhongming was silent for a moment, but nodded honestly.
Indeed, there are many conditions required for a good work to come out. If Ye Zhongming hadn't been lucky enough to obtain precious materials such as ghost gold, diamonds, and sea gold, and if the Blue Secret Realm hadn't provided him with a lot of resources, he wouldn't have been able to
Having been promoted to the level of super craftsman so smoothly, it is even more impossible to create so much purple equipment.
He might have gone bankrupt after failing twice. How could he be as unafraid of failure as he is now?
"Mr. An, are you looking for me for something?"
After Ye Zhongming saw off the big guys, Mr. An came to the door. Apparently something was going on.
Mr. An said: "Can I ask first, what are you going to do by gathering these children?"
He pointed outside where there was still noisy.
Ye Zhongming asked Xiaoxuan to send a message to the children in Black Dragon City, those who had no relatives and no power to rely on, that Ye Zhongming could take them in, give them food, clothing, basic safety, and even
Some evolution potions can also be provided, but they need to follow Ye Zhongming away to the far north.
No one knows better than these children in Black Dragon City that there are horrors further north. Going there is doomed to face great dangers.
However, Ye Zhongming also gave hope... In the future, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, you won't be bullied, and you may even get evolution potions.
Aren't these the goals of this group of orphans?
So when Xiaoxuan and his friends spread the news, the children in Black Dragon City soon knew about it, and many people came to see the situation, even some who belonged to powerful forces came.
They did not ignore the danger, but saw hope.
"If it were someone else, I would definitely stop it. I, Lao An, still have the final say in this city and will not let anyone take these children away. Even if they are not the hope of this city, they are still the fresh blood here.
.”
"But if it's Yunding and you, Ye Zhongming, want to do this, then I can't seem to find any reason to stop it, and I don't have the qualifications to stop it. I just want to ask why you want to do this. As far as I know, Yunding Villa
There seems to be no shortage of people. As long as you open your mouth, the evolvers from the country will flock to you and be willing to become your subordinates. These children should not be qualified."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I plan to build a youth army."
Ye Zhongming gave the answer directly.
He stood up and looked at the crowded crowd outside through the clean windows. Ye Zhongming said, "Has Mr. An ever thought that we will all die?"
Faced with this sudden change, An Lao was stunned for a moment, and then said: "When the end of the world began, I thought about when I would die every day, but as my evolutionary level increased, and as my craftsman profession was obtained and promoted,
As more and more people treat me with respect, and as I no longer need to hunt, I haven't thought about the word death for a long time."
"This is probably the difference between you and me. You are not only the best craftsman, but also the most powerful evolver. I can only sit in the room and make equipment, but you have to face various challenges all the time. You meet
To death, and I have forgotten death.”
He also stood up and walked to Ye Zhongming's side.
"Although you and I are both eight-star evolutionaries, when I saw you for the first time, I knew that the gap between us was too big. It was not just a matter of strength, but also of opinions, cognition, and understanding of each other.
Future Judgment.”
Mr. An may have met the first person in the country, and he said a lot of his thoughts in the short period of time after the meeting.
"Since you mentioned death, there must be something that makes you feel in danger, and I probably can't solve the problem that makes the first person in the country feel in danger." Mr. An smiled mockingly to himself, not angry at all, but
Very convinced.
"Then I won't answer. I'm old and can't bear the pressure." Mr. An said, pointing to the children outside, "If there are people who won't let them go, I'll be responsible for telling them."
Ye Zhongming suddenly felt that this old man was very interesting, very measured, and very... wise.
"Actually, it's nothing. After meeting Xiaoxuan here, I feel that they carry hope, not only about life and death, but also inheritance. You know, until today, each of us does not trust others very much. I
Same thing, so I took them away because I thought Genting and I could better protect this hope."
Mr. An nodded and made it clear, "If you take them to the far north, it is estimated that many of them will not be able to come back."
"Hope is not just hope, but also hope in the survival of the fittest."
Ye Zhongming and An Lao returned to the table, and Ye Zhongming asked what other things there were.
"There are two more things I want to ask you for help with."
"you say."
Mr. An started to talk about the first thing. Ye Zhongming was surprised when he heard it.
This senior professional craftsman actually invited Ye Zhongming to cooperate in manufacturing a piece of equipment.
"It's like this. I had an adventure before and got two drawings, very strange one-time drawings."
Ye Zhongming said that he knew that he had seen this type of thing, such as the mold formula he got from Zhang Dalong in the City of Tree Corpses, the Arli Essence Water that gave him a second life, and it was a one-time use
formula.
"The first one I made was the energy connection base, which I used on the Four Dragon Heads. The second one has been put on hold because of lack of materials. It was only recently that I gathered all the necessary materials.
thing."
Mr. An's expression was a little excited, but also a little melancholy.
"But when making something like this, five craftsmen are required to work together. Each one has to complete a separate part, and then they work together to complete the final shape."
Ye Zhongming was interested. He had never heard of this manufacturing method.
If five craftsmen can work together, then this formula must be very precious, and the final product is destined to be extremely extraordinary.
But Ye Zhongming didn't ask what it was. If Mr. An made such a request, he would definitely tell him, but maybe not now.
Just like what Ye Zhongming said just now, everyone in the last days trusts themselves more. Before the necessary moment, Mr. An probably won't reveal his true identity. He will definitely be on guard against the King of Genting. Maybe if the two of them hadn't talked just now
It's very good, maybe the old man wouldn't make this request.
But what was beyond Ye Zhongming's expectation was that Mr. An did not tell Ye Zhongming what he wanted to make, but he said that after the thing was made, he hoped Ye Zhongming would buy it.
"Listen to what you said, this piece of equipment must be a good thing. In that case, why don't you keep it for yourself?"
Ye Zhongming asked the doubts in his heart.
An Lao smiled bitterly and touched his nose, "Of course I want to keep it for myself, but I can't keep it. It's my crime to be pregnant with it! It's just because the thing is so good that it will inevitably attract many people. Ranking list in the country
If it is too conspicuous, this equipment will definitely be in the top five, or even the top three. If I put it in my hands, I don’t think I can survive more than two months."
So good? Ye Zhongming knew that Mr. An was very conservative in what he said, because the equipment at the top of the equipment rankings belonged to Ye Zhongming. I guess he was embarrassed, but Ye Zhongming could tell that what Mr. An meant was that this piece of equipment
After it is produced, it may not be as good as the mysterious seven-color equipment Sacrifice Gate, but it should be able to rank second.
The second-ranked equipment? Better than the Wind and Thunder Twins?
Ye Zhongming's interest became even stronger.
"But I have conditions. If you agree, then I will make the thing and sell it to you. If you don't agree, then I can also sell you the drawings directly. You can make it yourself, and the price will be much cheaper.
"
Hearing what Mr. An said, Ye Zhongming was a little helpless, "Mr. An, why don't you tell me what it is? The more I listen, the more confused I become."
Unexpectedly, instead of answering the question, Mr. An stopped talking and started talking about the third thing.
"Black Dragon City is my home. I have lived in this city since I was a child, but now it is facing a crisis, from those foreigners, so I ask you to help. If you can help me, then this time
The crisis will definitely be resolved."
Old An's last request was for Ye Zhongming to help Black Dragon City, which was expected. Old An also had a preliminary understanding of his character through this encounter with Ye Zhongming. This person is not bad, even Xiaoxuan knows it.
In order for Black Dragon City not to accept the magic crystal, this old man will definitely contribute.
In the entire Black Dragon City, An Lao, who was vaguely the number one person, was not surprised at all that Ye Zhongming made this request.
"Of course, your help will not be in vain. I have seen the information needs you have put forward for Yan Shuangfei and the others, and I can satisfy you, even more detailed, and will also arrange guides to help you, so that those in the far north can
Friendly forces are here to assist you."
Ye Zhongming's eyes lit up. This old man said he didn't go out of the city or hunt. He was used to being comfortable, but in fact, his network of influence had already extended beyond the country!
If it is true as Mr. An said, then this trip to the North may really be much easier.
Ye Zhongming, who was already willing to take action, immediately agreed.
But just as he was about to continue an in-depth discussion with Mr. An about the equipment and the Northland intelligence, Ye Zhongming suddenly turned aside and looked in the direction of the north. After feeling it carefully for two seconds, he turned to Mr. An and said: "Yes.
