"Brother, that person just now was very powerful." Nian Nuer immediately said to Mu Yi after coming out of the Time Bamboo.
Although she just hid in the bamboo of time and did not come out, it does not mean that she knows nothing about the outside world.
"Yes, I know." Mu Yi nodded. In fact, when facing the mysterious man, he couldn't help but want to take action several times, but every time something happened, a warning would rise in his heart.
The thoughts coming from the slave, so I held back forcefully.
He is not worried that he will be in danger. He believes that even if he is not the opponent of the mysterious man, relying on the bamboo of years, the copper lamp, and the five five thunder talismans in his pocket, he will still have no problem if he wants to leave. The key is that he does not
Dare to bet whether the other party will really get angry and kill Mr. Mo.
In that case, even though he was not the murderer of Mr. Mo, he would inevitably feel guilty in his heart. After all, the other party arrested Mr. Mo in order to blackmail him. For this reason alone, he could not be reckless.
And the more the other party pretends to be mysterious, the more it means there is something wrong. At least his identity is afraid to be exposed. Obviously, the other party has scruples, and with the clues Mu Yi found, he believes that sooner or later he will find out the other party.
However, the top priority is to find a way to get the jade seal back first. The moneyless man can injure Mr. Mo, so his strength will naturally not be weak, otherwise the mysterious man will not blackmail him to do this.
"ah!"
At this moment, an exclamation came from the side, interrupting Mu Yi's thoughts.
Mo Xiaoyu was seen reaching out his hand to slap the flames in front of him in fear, with a look of lingering fear on his face.
Mu Yi looked at Mo Xiaoyu, a little surprised, but also a little understanding.
As he had guessed before, Mo Xiaoyu was far from being as simple as he thought. It didn't mean that he was hiding deeply or anything like that. He was indeed just an ordinary person who didn't know martial arts or practice, but his physique
It should be slightly different from ordinary people, otherwise it would be impossible for the amulet to lose its effect so quickly.
"Master, is my shopkeeper okay?" Mo Xiaoyu looked at Mu Yi with some fear, and just used a piece of paper to immobilize him. This was completely unheard of in his world.
"Well, it's okay for the time being, so you don't have to worry about it," Mu Yi said.
Hearing what Mu Yi said, Mo Xiaoyu immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, master. I'll go back and take care of my shopkeeper."
"Wait a minute!" Mu Yi called out in time to stop Mo Xiaoyu who was about to leave.
"What other instructions does the master have?" Mo Xiaoyu looked at Mu Yi puzzled, fearing that Mu Yi would stick another piece of paper on him.
"Your shopkeeper is not at home?" Mu Yi said directly.
"Not at home?" Mo Xiaoyu immediately looked at Mu Yi in confusion.
"Because the enemy is too strong, your shopkeeper has temporarily gone out and will probably come back in three to five days." Mu Yi thought for a moment and said. It was not that he wanted to hide it from Mo Xiaoyu, but that Mu Yi was worried that Mo Xiaoyu would do what he did.
Something stupid happened.
Therefore, it is better to hide this matter from him for the time being. Anyway, it will only take these few days for him to retrieve the jade seal and redeem Mr. Mo.
"Escaped?" Mo Xiaoyu's eyes widened, a little dumbfounded.
"Yes, and Mr. Mo asked me to tell you not to go back these days to avoid running into that group of people." Mu Yi continued.
But after listening to Mu Yi's words, Mo Xiaoyu not only did not feel at ease, but his face was full of sadness and his whole body was trembling, "Master, is my shopkeeper already..."
Mo Xiaoyu looked at Mu Yi, but still did not dare to say the last two words.
"Your shopkeeper is not dead." Mu Yi saw Mo Xiaoyu's look and knew what he wanted to ask.
"Really?" Hope rekindled in Mo Xiaoyu's eyes.
"Of course it's true. I don't need to lie to you. Besides, Mr. Mo is also my elder. I won't ignore him." Mu Yi said directly.
"Yes, but even if my shopkeeper hides out, why doesn't he take me with him?" Mo Xiaoyu looked at Mu Yi with a puzzled face.
"I don't know either. It's better to ask him personally when you see him in a few days." Mu Yi said.
"Well, I will definitely ask him carefully then." Mo Xiaoyu clenched his fists, his face full of indignation.
"Okay, there is a guest room next to it. You can stay here temporarily." Mu Yi said.
"Thank you, master."
Mo Xiaoyu actually only believed half of Mu Yi's words. In fact, when Mu Yi left, he also thought about a lot, such as why his shopkeeper asked him to come to Mu Yi. I'm afraid it wasn't just asking for help.
After Mu Yi came back, he said that the shopkeeper had gone out. This was obviously different from the shopkeeper he knew, so he thought that something bad had happened to his shopkeeper.
But then Mu Yi's words gave him a little more hope. Just as Mu Yi said, Mr. Mo is also his elder, and he will definitely not ignore it. Moreover, Mu Yi also said that as long as three to five days,
The shopkeeper will come back, and at that time, everything will be revealed.
He felt that if Mu Yi was just lying to him, he could have said three to five days as three to five months, or even longer, and three to five days would be very quick.
The next day, Mu Yi disguised himself and came to Xie Zheng's home. If he wanted to figure out the money problem as soon as possible, he could only use Xie Zheng's power.
What he didn't expect was that Xie Zheng actually knew that money was not available.
And what Mu Yi expected was that this Ten Mile Fort was not a martial arts force, but a town of blacksmiths. The people living here basically made a living by blacksmithing, and the iron lions made here were named
A must.
Legend has it that a black dragon once caused chaos near the sea in Cangzhou, and the people were in dire straits. Just when everyone was in despair, a lion suddenly flew in, defeated the black dragon, and saved the people here.
In order to commemorate this lion, people found the best blacksmith in the world at that time, and spent ninety-nine and eighty-one days to finally cast a huge iron lion, which was suppressed at Haikou, not only to commemorate the lion who saved them, but also to commemorate the lion who saved them.
This iron lion was also used to suppress Haikou to prevent black dragons from causing trouble again.
Strange to say, since the iron lion appeared, no disasters have occurred in Cangzhou Haikou. Therefore, the status of the iron lion in people's hearts is getting higher and higher. The original group of blacksmiths also settled here.
Multiplication led to the formation of today's Shili Fort, which is also the hometown of blacksmiths.
The authenticity of this legend cannot be verified, but there is indeed a huge iron lion in Haikou, and almost everyone in the Shilibao blacksmith can make this iron lion. Within a few hundred miles around, when people mention blacksmiths, the first thing they naturally think of is
The one is Shilibao.
This person is said to be a descendant of the great craftsman who was responsible for building the Iron Lion. The reason why he is famous is not only because of this, but also because his craftsmanship is recognized as the best, and he is also the fortress of Shili Fort.
host.
"Just a blacksmith?" Mu Yi naturally didn't believe it, unless the mysterious man was deliberately deceiving him last night, but this was obviously even more impossible. The other party had tried so hard to kidnap Mr. Mo, so how could it be just to get him?
Against an ordinary blacksmith?
Therefore, Mu Yi would rather believe that Qian Butong's hidden secrets are too deep, just like Xie Zheng was unable to find out that Leng Yu was the former Xuan Ming Banner of the Er Gang. There are some things that he cannot access at his level, even if even Mr. Mo
He only opened a paper-cutting shop in Cangzhou and lived a low-key life.
I'm afraid if I ask Xie Zheng to investigate, he won't find anything either.
After leaving Xie Zheng, Mu Yi did not waste time and went directly to Shili Fort. Now he can only hope that the other party did not hide after getting the jade seal, otherwise it will undoubtedly be difficult for Mu Yi to find him in a short time, even once
If the two-day limit is exceeded, Mr. Mo will be in danger.
Ten Mile Fort, just like its name, has countless blacksmith shops connected together and stretches for several miles. Ten miles may be a bit exaggerated, but three or four miles is definitely no problem.
As soon as Mu Yi stepped into Shili Fort, he heard tinkling and even the sound of bellows. When he looked up, he saw countless chimneys standing outside, spitting out black smoke.
On the whole street, people are constantly coming and going, and from time to time you can even see one or two Jianghu people holding swords and leaving happily. Obviously, not only iron lions or ordinary farm tools are made here, but there are also a lot of swords.
According to the information given by Xie Zheng, the thickest and tallest chimney in Ten Mile Fort is the territory where money cannot pass, so there is no need to ask for directions. Mu Yi easily found the place, but as far as he could see, this place was already there.
It cannot be called a blacksmith shop, or it would be more appropriate to describe it as a factory.
Since the beginning of the Westernization Movement, some Western things have been continuously introduced into the Qing Dynasty. Those ministers have imitated the Western model and established factories one after another on this land, but most people still call them manufacturing bureaus.
But at this moment, there are four big characters written on the door, Qian's Workshop.
And with the huge chimney as the center, a building was built. At this moment, people were coming and going inside, and it looked like a busy scene.
Mu Yi walked directly into it and kept looking around. Then he found that the main items here were armor and weapons. They could do this openly. It was obvious that this money barrier had a lot of energy. Even these weapons and armor were for the army.
Made.
"Hey, who are you? Don't you know you are not allowed to come in here?"
Mu Yi was getting excited when someone next to him noticed him. After all, Mu Yi was wearing a bamboo hat at the moment, which could easily give people the impression of being sneaky.
What appeared in front of Mu Yi was a shirtless man with a sledgehammer in his hand. After he came to Muyi, he let go of his hand and the sledgehammer fell directly to the ground with a thud.
After a sound, looking at the ground again, there was obviously a small pit.
"I'm looking for someone." Mu Yi said calmly. He could naturally tell that the other party was deliberately demonstrating, but it was really difficult to scare him with this little trick.
"Who are you looking for?" The big man looked Mu Yi up and down. Seeing that Mu Yi didn't have any weapons hidden on his body, and his voice didn't seem loud, his attitude became even more arrogant.
