The Heavens: A Qing, the Yue Girl at the beginning

Chapter 446 Arsenal, Lingxu, Clues (4k)

Ye Ce Leng walked in the forest composed of swords, guns, swords and halberds. There were weapon racks everywhere. Under the cold light, it exuded an indescribable and overwhelming Jinge atmosphere.

In such a place, if you are an ordinary practitioner, your perception of the vitality of heaven and earth will inevitably be affected, making it difficult to release your spirit, and even the movement of the true energy will be slowed down by a few minutes.

In the ordnance arsenal of the Tiger and Wolf Northern Army, there are nine such large warehouses in total, which together store more than 500,000 repeating crossbows, tens of millions of crossbow arrows, 300,000 powerful bows, daggers, halberds, spears, and beryllium weapons. There are more than one hundred thousand, including hundreds of thousands of armors, and tens of thousands of scimitars, axes, etc.

The largest number of them are sword weapons, such as long swords, short swords, daggers, etc. The number has reached millions, which is enough to arm the entire young and middle-aged population of Changling. Together, the arsenal can make everyone in the Guanzhong region have swords to use, and all the people can be soldiers.

In order to ensure the quality of these swords and armors, a large-scale inspection will be conducted every three years to compare the original ordnance with the new ordnance, and about half of them will be eliminated and sent to local counties. This is also the Qin Army's The reason why armor purchasing is incredibly profitable.

When the three dynasties of Zhao, Han, and Wei were conquered, at least one-fifth of Qin's prime ministers died in battle. This number was huge, which showed how brave Qin Feng was. Now that he has the support of a large number of refined weapons, his war potential is even greater. Unimaginable.

However, based on the current copper and iron output of the Qin Dynasty, ordinary ordnance is not that important, and it is worth setting up strict formation restrictions. This place is covered by conventional arsenals, and what is really protected is naturally the inner storehouse that stores extraordinary equipment. .

Deep in this warehouse that seems to be filled with armor, there is actually a secret door leading to another secret place.

When Ye Ce Leng passed over several officials from the Shendu Supervisor and the Military and Horse Division, and showed a command talisman that was radiant due to the induction, several rows of heavy weapon racks moved away on their own, revealing an underground place with a long light burning. Entrance.

The entrance to this inner treasury is guarded by four bronze-colored dragon-shaped talisman pillars. The extended dragon claws jointly open a dark light curtain door, with chain-like snakes surrounding it. It is the key to the formation restriction.

Now, this barrier has broken through a large human-shaped hole, giving people a feeling of emptiness. The heavy vitality escaping from the hole crushed the copper bricks on the ground. Sadhuai frowned and paced back and forth.

Looking further inside, rows of long-wind armor-piercing crossbows were placed silently, each equipped with dozens of giant arrows weighing hundreds of kilograms. They looked like giants, but under the heavy weight of each one, In front of Qianjun's rune chariot, it was much smaller.

Among the many giant crossbows and chariots, there are also some weapon racks similar to those in the foreign library. However, the weapons placed on them are almost all weapons engraved with runes, and the materials are naturally not ordinary copper, iron, or fine materials. steel.

Upon closer inspection, there were more than two thousand military-standard Hundred-Refined Black Iron Swords. The cold sword blades showed a dark black color, revealing their straight runes.

This type of black iron sword is considered a standard weapon issued by the Qin army to practitioners of the Four Realms and Five Realms. It is neither good nor bad, and has no special features. However, the sword body is tough and difficult to cut. It won't be much worse than the famous swords in the world.

In addition, there are some short swords as thin as cicada wings, three-foot-long finger-wrap swords, seven-foot fine gold heavy swords, primitive sword bodies made of diamond wood, cold iron, jade, and animal bones... This is it. Non-standard weapons, other weapons obtained through transaction acquisition, extermination of bandits and other means.

The gloomy wooden shelves on the other side are filled with various unique utensils. Some are special jade boxes and vases, and some are porcelain sealed with wax. These vessels with different vitality properties are used to store elixirs of different properties to prevent the elixirs inside from losing their medicinal properties.

According to the common needs in the military, they are divided into three categories: healing medicine, realm-breaking elixir, and tiger and wolf medicine. Like the exquisite rune weapons displayed, they are all items that can be redeemed by military contributions, so that poor families can Practitioners can also have no shortage of resources and get normal promotion opportunities.

The path for practitioners with no background to rise will not be monopolized by aristocratic families. This is why after the Qin Dynasty's reform, young talents rushed to join the army in order to receive rewards. The proportion of practitioners in the army far exceeded that of other dynasties, and the national power became increasingly strong. Reasons for strength.

"A copy of the "Weapons and Vehicles Collection Book" has been found. After checking, there are no traces of tampering or destruction, but the possibility of being discovered and secretly recorded cannot be ruled out for the time being..."

Two officials from the Shendu Prison carefully found several documents from a certain corner. The contents included the total number of ordnance, purchase, use and maintenance records of each battalion of the Tiger and Wolf Northern Army, and even some towns near Changling. It can be called a secret of the Changling military.

They are not the most direct catalog of Changling military defense. However, through these boring records, those real geniuses are enough to deduce the changes and power that the Changling military can possess when dealing with a war. .

Many years ago, the Chu Dynasty obtained the border defense catalog in Yangshan and Dengjun through secret spies, and gained a significant advantage in the conflict between Qin and Chu at that time.

"Sir Ye, the helper you are looking for has arrived!" When Ye Ce Leng quietly approached, Qi Beihuai, after listening to his subordinate's report, immediately turned around and glanced at her with tired eyes, without saying anything else. Just nodded.

Recently, regarding the Gushan Jianzang matter, Supervisor Tiansi and Shendu Supervisor have spent almost all their efforts on tracking down the people in Yunshuigong, so that most officials are very busy and stay up late one after another.

Temporarily changing tasks is a big taboo in investigating cases, but the theft of the armory cannot be delayed, and its importance is actually more important than the long-term search for the Gushan sword cache, so the higher-ups decided to allocate many other assistance to work with the two Cooperate with the company to solve the case as quickly as possible.

At least, some useful clues must be unearthed within a few days, and then handed over to Changling Guards to continue their work, so that Shendu Supervisor and Supervisor Tiansi can return to their original tasks.

It was precisely because of the accumulation of too much fatigue that Qi Beihuai's previous attitude towards major suspects such as Liang Lian was not very good. He lost respect for the general who was expected to be granted a title and looked angry.

"I have already found one or two people, and I have some ideas for investigating the case..."

Ye Ce Leng paused for a moment and said softly: "That is based on the damage caused by the formation restriction, referring to 'that person' investigating Gu Liren's death at that time, looking for people to test the sword everywhere, and conducting a large number of sparring competitions. Target suspicious persons within Changling.”

"Anyone can tell lies, but sword moves and sword intentions cannot tell lies. As long as you read the sword scriptures that everyone has performed and compare them with the moves that cut through the restrictions, you will have a great chance to detect and identify them. Practitioners involved in this matter.”

"Use the method that 'that person' used before?" Qi Beihuai was shocked, his eyes widened, and he glanced at Ye Celeng who looked calm: "Just after sensing this gap for a while, you are sure to tell the difference. The slight difference between this sword intent?”

"It's not a good thing to follow Wang Jingmeng's method. It will make many people feel uncomfortable. Especially with your status as Chief Ye... it can be said that there are big problems, and you should think more about it."

In Changling, "that person" is a specific name, which can be equated with Jingmeng, the sword-headed king of the world back then. However, his full name has long become a taboo, and few people dare to say it openly.

What is also rarely known is that Ye Ce Leng, one of the youngest practitioners of the Seventh Realm in Great Qin, had been taught many times in swordsmanship by Wang Jingmeng. In a sense, he was the only "that person" Known direct disciple.

In that shocking change, there were actually many people in Bashan Sword Field who chose to betray Wang Jingmeng and loyal to Yuan Wu, such as Gu Huai and others who later served as the leader of Lingxu Sword Sect, but most of them were far from Ye Ye. Ce Leng has such a "close" relationship.

In addition, she just led the army and "sit back and watch" the battle. Many people doubted Ye Ce Leng's "loyalty" to Yuan Wu, thinking that she might have a rebellious heart and wanted to endure the humiliation and rely on her spiritual practice after surrendering. Catch up with the enemy who murdered his master and take revenge.

Based on such suspicion, Yuan Wu and Zheng Xiu have tolerated Ye Ce Leng's existence in recent years, and even allowed her to quickly rise to the position of chief minister. First, they need to balance some forces in Changling and show their broad mind. , and secondly, Ye Ce Leng's improvement in cultivation was slower than expected. It seemed that he had been injured secretly while fighting overseas, and there was no big threat.

But now, if Ye Ce Leng shows a sword-making talent close to that of Wang Jingmeng, it will arouse the fear of countless vested interests, and make many princes, generals, and even the Prime Minister, Queen and others want to try to take her away. get rid of. In fact, as the second-in-command of the Shendu Supervisor, Qi Beihuai is quite familiar with the changes in the situation in Changling. He has made some speculations recently:

During the above period, the two divisions were arranged to focus on Gushan Jianzang and Bai Shanshui, which was a round of suppression against Ye Ce Lengxin, so that she would have to take the initiative to face Yunshuigong Dashi, whose combat power had reached the top level of the seventh realm. He was severely injured.

At this high-risk moment, Chief Ye actually wanted to imitate "that person's" investigation methods. This was just adding fuel to the fire. He was walking on the road where he could be "burned to death" at any time. He didn't want to be implicated by the other party. , bear the secret blow from some guys.

"How does the discomfort in other people's hearts have anything to do with me? Deputy Chief Qi, you are also an 'old man' who has experienced that era. Don't you long to see the heroic Qin Feng again? In addition, I am not the only one to investigate, but I invited some helpers.”

It was obvious that Qi Beihuai was not aware of her cooperative relationship with Superintendent Chen, and Ye Ce Leng could not say which one was better, her secretly developing and assimilating subordinates, or Chen Xuan's method of keeping secrets and never revealing his inner thoughts.

Her mind was filled with thoughts, and she took over the statistical data record from Mo Qinggong, and explained: "They are the elders of Lingxu Sword Sect who are currently serving as worshipers in Fanghou Mansion, Pang Yugu, and 'Jian Chi'. 'Fang Xiumu himself."

When Ye Ce Leng mentioned these two names, the hole in the magic circle was towards the side of the inner treasury. Suddenly the air was slightly distorted, and a middle-aged man wearing a purple robe and a high crown appeared. Although his appearance was Quite ordinary, but he has a unique and extraordinary divine brilliance.

The purple robe on his body is completely different from ordinary clothes, and it also exudes a dazzling brilliance. Each silk thread seems to be made of some unique material, and even gives people the impression that each silk thread is a The unique runes can help him absorb the energy of heaven and earth.

There are no special decorations or marks on the entire purple robe, but the nothingness and the unique aura and brilliance of the purple robe are the biggest signs.

This is the sect robe of Lingxu Sword Sect.

Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect, the two highest sects in the Qin Dynasty, including those disciples of the inner sect and outer sect, only practitioners above the three realms are qualified to leave the mountain, otherwise they can only live in the mountains forever.

Among all the disciples who can walk around in the world, only the true disciples who have been personally canonized by the sect master are qualified to wear the sect robes representing the sect and walk outside. Every move, word and deed, every time the sword is used to fight, represents the honor and disgrace of the sect.

Being able to stand out from countless ordinary disciples and become a true disciple of the Lingxu Sword Sect who can represent the sect is naturally not an ordinary thing, and can even be called a monster of super mortal genius.

Some of them are born with the ability to feel the existence of the vitality of heaven and earth, which means that there is no obstacle to his practice in the first three realms, and he will break through from the fourth realm to the fifth realm many times faster than ordinary people.

Some people are born with wider meridians than ordinary people, and the orifices in the body are naturally able to store more true energy and heaven and earth energy. This means that the higher their realm in the future, the more they will have than practitioners of the same level. Power to squander.

Some people even naturally become practitioners soon after they are born, and the Qi of the five internal organs in the body has naturally condensed into true essence.

Faced with such monsters, most geniuses from border towns and small sects can be described as useless.

With outstanding talents that far exceed ordinary people's imagination, coupled with the cultivation of the top resources of Lingxu Sword Sect, these true disciples can cultivate to the five realms and six realms when they are still young. If they are willing to join the official system of the Qin Dynasty, they will soon be able to It can quickly become something big and important.

Pang Yugu is a true disciple of Lingxu Sword Sect more than 30 years ago. Now he has reached the middle level of the Seventh Realm. He has automatically obtained the status of the elder of the sect. He is also the most powerful among the many masters in Fanghou Mansion. It is said that the strength of this person is indistinguishable from that of Fang Hou Fang Qilin himself.

Looking at the current Lingxu Sword Sect, I am afraid that it is only under the sect leader Gu Huai and the reclusive Lingxu Five Sects.

As for the "sword madman" Fang Xiumu, Fang Qilin's second son, he is a peerless genius known to the entire Qin Dynasty. According to legend, he is expected to have the Eight Realms Qitian, and his qualifications are no less than those of Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect. Everyone, even Emperor Yuanwu, valued him very much.

Although there is news that he sits unkemptly by the fish pond every day to learn swordsmanship, never paying attention to worldly affairs, and has stayed at the peak of the Six Realms for nearly ten years, the many records that Fang Xiumu broke in the past make people believe that As long as he wants to, he can break through the realm immediately and improve his cultivation rapidly.

It is hard to imagine that Ye Ce Leng could actually invite Fang Xiumu, who even the Fang family members could not make him move away from the fish pond, but since she could say this, Pang Yugu had already arrived here, Presumably this statement is true, at best it is half a step too late.

"Senior Pang." Seeing the other party suddenly appearing in a deserted place, Qi Beihuai also looked surprised and took the initiative to salute. He found that although he could clearly see Pang Yugu's figure, he could not mentally express it. Feel his presence mentally.

There is no doubt that this is the legendary art of integrating vitality into the body and hiding the void. It gives people an extremely contradictory feeling that cannot be locked at all. It is almost innately invincible, showing the spirit of the Lingxu Sword Sect. The incomparable mystery of the secret technique.

"The one in the world who is best at breaking the restrictions of formations is the 'Vacuum Breaking Sword' of the Lingxu Sword Sect, and Senior Pang is a senior master who has successfully practiced this sword. With his swordsmanship, he should be able to see Find out some of the characteristics of the infiltrator's moves..."

When Ye Ce Leng introduced Qi Beihuai, Mo Qinggong and others, purple flowing like starlight suddenly appeared in Pang Yugu's eyes. At the same time, it also spread to the five fingers of his left hand, and naturally condensed into a full moon. A bright white sword light fell on the damaged forbidden light screen.

Hazy and translucent crystal lines radiated outwards from the point of contact between the sword light and the light curtain. The original color was pure white, but when it passed through the hole, it inexplicably produced a light red color. , and then dye it darker and darker, transforming towards deep purple.

In the sky above the armory, the flow of many vitalities became disordered. The light produced by the lights shining everywhere was swaying, as if being sucked into the void. There were obviously no dark clouds, but it was as dim as if there were dark clouds covering the sun.

"Based on the number of ordnances that disappeared from the inner treasury, I have a rough idea." After a moment, Pang Yugu's aura was obviously weakened, and his body was no longer in a state of blending with the energy of the void: "However, You still have to let Xiu Mu see it before you can draw an accurate conclusion.”

"Sir Ye, according to your wishes, it is indeed the best plan to hold an exchange meeting with the participation of all the major forces in Changling on the grounds of preparing for the 'Lushan Alliance'. It can both inspire the Embroidered Screen Guangguan Sword Scripture The real suspect can also be found with his interest.”

"More importantly, we can use this opportunity to jointly investigate secret spies to bridge the estrangement from each other in the past ten years, abandon the many dark habits of Changling, and revive the past style of our Daqin people who strive to be the first and contribute to the country. …”

As he spoke, an almost identical defect appeared next to the original human-shaped hole where the formation restricted it. It was the secret of the Pang Yu Gu Yun's vacuum-breaking killing sword, simulating the way Zhao Qing had cut it open at that time. Forbidden moves.

Seeing this scene, Qi Beihuai and Mo Qinggong couldn't help but feel shocked. Although the Mingxia Qin Dynasty was getting stronger and stronger on paper, after the destruction of Bashan Sword Field, there was always a sense of lifelessness, and this was exactly what happened at night. Ce Leng and Fang Houfu plan to change the target.

With the additional development they have made with this case, Changling will surely be in turmoil in the near future. Depending on the subsequent response, it may regain a sense of youthfulness or become more decadent, causing people to completely forget that once beautiful era.

……

At the same time, thousands of miles away in the suburbs of Guixiang County, Zhao Qing also entered the pavilion in the front yard of a local workshop.
