Chapter 32: The imperial corpse is ringed up, and the five colors invite you
Summer is passing and autumn is coming, and winter will soon come.
Although not all the rivers outside the city were frozen, the flow of passing business travelers also dropped by a full 70% to 80%.
Jiayuan City is visibly quiet.
But among the scattered jade, there is a courtyard that is as warm as ever, even a little bit hot, making people think it is summer.
The blue brick floor has been swept cleanly, and there is no trace of snow.
The snowflakes in the sky melted into fine water droplets before they fell.
"Sir, the three magic weapons from last month have been sold one after another. The corresponding amount and this season's offerings have been brought with me by the villain."
In the middle of the courtyard, in front of a huge stove that was as tall as a person, Xie Chao skillfully bent down to report to Xie Duanyang.
Behind the two people, six boxes that were not too big were lined up in sequence, and the lids of the boxes were opened wide, revealing all the items inside.
Both mouthfuls were filled with gold bars and silver ingots.
There are also four boxes, which are divided into several layers and carefully placed with various medicinal materials such as ginseng, polygonum multiflorum, polygonatum, ganoderma and so on.
Among them there are many treasures that are thirty to fifty years old, with rich medicinal aroma and excellent appearance.
Half a quarter of an hour passed after Xie Chao finished speaking, but Xie Duanyang did not respond.
He wasn't anxious, he just bowed and stayed by the side.
Xie Duanyang's expression remained as usual, and his hands that were originally clasped in front of his chest suddenly formed several seals, and released a golden and red spiritual power into the iron furnace.
The fire in the furnace suddenly became brighter, turning from red to pure green, and the furnace lid began to tremble involuntarily.
"Get up!"
Xie Duanyang shouted loudly, and the stove lid opened in response. The fire shot into the sky, making Xie Chao's face next to him blush, and even his hair turned yellow and bent.
When the fire light dissipated, Xie Duanyang spread his fingers and made a gesture to grab it inward.
Immediately, a black and red copper ring with a diameter of one and a half feet flew out from it, shrinking in the wind.
Finally, it happened to wrap around Xie Duanyang’s left wrist.
The small ring has just come out of the oven, but there is no burning smell at all, but a slight coolness.
Rubbing the smooth surface of the copper ring, Xie Duanyang's lips curled up into a smile.
In just one month, I had completely eliminated the craftsmanship of those secular blacksmiths, leaving only a few secret techniques that they regarded as fundamental and tightly hidden in my heart.
Xie Duanyang knew this and did not force them, but let them leave.
After that, he began to practice while exploring the basics of weapon refining.
Naturally, Xie Duanyang did not support the "Siping Gang" in vain. Without opening his mouth, Xie Chao had already woken up and allocated 30% of the gang's net profit every month as filial piety.
A very small part of it was used to purchase copper, iron, tin and other materials.
Basically, several magic swords that have been refined for more than a hundred times are produced every month, and are sold to the martial arts heroes in Lanzhou and even the entire Yue Kingdom through the hands of the Siping Gang.
In just half a year, the reputation of the Siping Gang has spread beyond Lanzhou.
Most of the money sold was used by him to collect old medicinal materials.
Although Xie Duanyang did not delve into Mo Juren's medical skills, he still wrote down several prescriptions for elixirs.
These elixirs can be prepared by ordinary people even if they have never learned alchemy. Naturally, Xie Duanyang cannot help but do it.
For monks below the tenth level of Qi training, the two elixirs "Huanglong Pill" and "Golden Marrow Pill" can significantly improve their cultivation.
For him at this time, it was too extravagant and wasteful, but the elixir that Mo Juren began to prepare for Han Li was relatively suitable.
In fact, for the two elixirs of "Huanglong Dan", it is completely sufficient to use herbs that have been used for decades, and there is no need to do what Han Li did.
Although it is difficult to find elixirs that are hundreds of years old, whether in the secular world or the spiritual world.
But if the medicine is twenty, thirty, thirty or forty years old, it will be relatively easy.
With the help of a group of people, we can basically gain a lot every month.
Moreover, the environment of forging iron and making weapons seems to be beneficial to the practice of "Metal Metal Dharma", which is better than simply meditating and adjusting the breath.
With the help of the elixir, Xie Duanyang not only completely stabilized the third level of Qi training.
Even half a month ago, with the help of a "Golden Marrow Pill", I broke through the barrier in one fell swoop and entered the middle stage of Qi training.
The weapons he had asked Xie Chao to sell before were just his practice work, or the leftover scraps after refining weapons.
It's okay to rule the roost in the world, but it can't be called a magical weapon at all.
A true magic weapon, even if the first few pieces are just defective items that can barely be called magic weapons.
Xie Duanyang would rather rework it than release it.
It's just limited by his cultivation level. Even if he has the help of Taixu Mirror, he can only successfully refine a low-grade magical weapon at most, and it will be unsustainable for him to go above that.
In fact, even monks who have also practiced the "Metal Metal Technique".
The real success in refining weapons only happened after the fifth or sixth level of Qi training.
Thanks to Xie Duanyang's enlightenment on the "Fire Bullet Technique", which can increase the firepower, we were able to succeed.
It was this breakthrough that gave Xie Duanyang some ideas, and he planned to refine a medium-grade magic weapon.
He even added pieces of "red cloud copper" and "gloomy iron" to the spiritual materials he bought from Wan Qingxue.
For the previous low-grade magic weapons, he only used fine iron, fine copper, fine silver and other ordinary materials that even a worldly skilled blacksmith could barely use.
After half a month of hard work and sacrifice, I finally succeeded without any surprises.
This copper ring is neither capable of killing in battle, nor has it the effect of protecting oneself and defending oneself.
The effect is extremely unconventional, but it is somewhat similar to the spirit beast bag.
It is specially used to contain corpses for refining.
Because it is mixed with "gloomy iron", although the armored corpse is not as good as staying in a good corpse raising ground, it still has some effects on strengthening the body.
It is even easier to practice to achieve spiritual success, which is much easier to use than the "soul-inducing bell".
The weapon refining was successful, and the medicinal materials sent by Xie Chao, both in quantity and age, exceeded expectations.
Xie Duanyang was so happy that he pulled the small sword from his waist and threw it to Xie Chao.
"Well done, this is your reward.
Wear it with you, even if you sleep, press it under your pillow.
Once a month, nourish with blood.
It may save your life when you are in danger, but remember to be careful not to show it to others easily."
Xie Duanyang said calmly, but Xie Chao couldn't suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and the palm of his hand that took the small sword was trembling.
He has made up his mind not to use it himself, but to give it to his son as a talisman.
For half a month, apart from practicing Qigong and sleeping, the rest of the time was basically spent looking after the fire.
Even Xie Duanyang looks a little tired.
I was about to send Xie Chao away and go to the tunnel to try the effect of the corpse ring first, and then have a good sleep.
"My lord!"
Xie Chao seemed to have thought of something, and took out a beautiful invitation from his arms and respectfully presented it to Xie Duanyang.
"This time, one of the three magic weapons fell into the hands of the young master of the Five Color Clan, and it was planned to be a birthday gift for the 50th birthday of the Li Clan.
This invitation is sent by him to strongly invite you to come to the banquet..."
