Start practicing archery

Chapter 153: Archery is perfect, and cannot be avoided

The interim goals of both martial arts and magic have been achieved.

Next, it’s time to go up the mountain to hunt.

"I have already written a memorial to Adjutant General Yu, and I am sending it via the 6,000-mile Divine Eagle Express from the Ministry of Public Administration. It is about time for it to arrive."

"I wonder if the emperor will give General Yu a clean name after reading this memorial."

"In addition, Xu Wencai's contributions are also written down."

After the rebellion in Mingzhou was suppressed.

Those who returned alive from the reserve camp received generous rewards.

Since Xu Wencai had no accomplishments and was not even a Wu Zu, it was really unfair that he only got some gold and silver. The ideal of this old scholar was to get the real title of Wu Long.

But with Fang Qingyun as an example, it would be difficult to obtain a title as famous as his. However, it would also be good to get a military or literary honor. I can only try my best.

There was also a piece of news in the capital that was worth mentioning. Before they went to war, a new top scorer in the imperial examination emerged. He was his old acquaintance, Tang Yingke.

I didn't expect that this kid actually passed the exam as he said he would. He really has some knowledge.

……

Beijing.

Longevity Palace.

All the cabinet members gathered here.

"Good news!"

“Since the war with Dongqing Kingdom began, An Dong Hou Meng Quji has taken over eight prefectures in a short period of two months, and has now entered the heart of Laizhou. He has won battle after battle and seems unstoppable.

“In a desperate situation, Dongqing sent the King of Tang to lead an army of 100,000 to station in Tongzhou.

"If King Tang of Dongqing is defeated again, we can recapture the three states of Lai, Tong, and Ling in one fell swoop. Two of these states are fertile lands, including Ziwei Mountain."

"Okay! If Meng Quji needs anything, we will do our best to satisfy him. If he lacks food, we will gather food. If he lacks military pay, we will allocate military pay. As long as he can take back the three states, I will confer him the title of Duke!"

Emperor Longqing was very pleased.

After the meeting was over, he changed the subject: "By the way, regarding the reward for Chen Sanshi, what suggestions do you have? Let me hear your suggestions. Yan Liang, Yan Maoxing, you two can speak first."

"Replying to your Majesty."

Yan Liang sat on a small stool and answered leisurely, "Lord Chen is too young, and his official rank is limited by his martial arts realm. If His Majesty rewards him, he can only reward him with honors.

"Besides, after leading the people across the river, Lord Chen was already awarded the title of Third Rank Upper Chariot Captain. Now that he has made such a great contribution in Mingzhou, theoretically, he should skip the Second Rank and be directly awarded the Second Rank Upper Guardian. In addition, the martial arts resources he has been given are already the best, and we can only reward him with some gold and silver."

"Your Majesty, I agree!"

Yan Maoxing bowed and said, "An eighteen-year-old second-rank guard is already an extremely rare achievement in our dynasty."

Minister of War Gao Bo echoed, "I second the motion."

"Haha, that's too low."

Emperor Longqing interrupted and said, "I am going to directly confer him the title of First Rank Supreme Pillar State. What do you think?"

There was an uproar.

"Your Majesty, isn't this a bit too high?"

Yan Liang hesitated and said, "He is only eighteen years old, and he has only been a general for two years. Isn't this promotion speed a bit too fast?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Gao Bo said in a deep voice: "He has made such great achievements at such a young age. If the reward is too generous, he will inevitably become arrogant. Otherwise, he should be promoted to the second-rank guard first, and then promoted to the rank of Grand General after three to five years."

"I think there is nothing wrong with that!"

Minister of Rites, Tang Ran, Tang Yingke's father, said: "General Chen's four crossings of the Hongze River have now been recorded in the art of war. If he had not achieved such an extraordinary feat, the rebellion in Mingzhou would never have been quelled in such a short time!"

"Master Tang, public is public, private is private."

The Minister of Revenue said this with some unclear meaning, but he did not point it out explicitly.

They had heard about the selection of the forward.

It is said that Chen Sanshi killed Wen Qiushi in order to avenge Tang Ran's son Tang Yingke.

It’s just that the occasion is different, so many things need to be said in a roundabout way.

We cannot quarrel directly with Eunuch Hou like Governor Liu and others in Liangzhou.

"I'm just discussing official business!"

Tang Ran said firmly: "Your Majesty's decision is extremely wise, and the title of Supreme State Pillar is just right."

"Prince~"

Emperor Longqing drawled, "What do you think?"

"Father, your Majesty has made a wise decision. Why do you need me to interrupt?"

The prince sitting on the mat expressed his agreement.

The officials below were still discussing it.

"This is too young..."

"Yes, at that time, Sun Xiangzong had not yet revealed his true intentions."

"What if I make another contribution in the future?"

"Doesn't it mean that I will be made an earl at the age of twenty?"

"..."

According to the honor system of the Great Sheng Dynasty, above the first rank, there are super-ranks such as Earl, Marquis, Duke, and King. Each one is less and less than the other, and only members of the Cao family can become a king. There are only two or three Dukes, and very few Marquises. There are a few Earls, but they are all long-time seniors. Therefore, a first-rank Shangzhuguo would appear very high, and basically have the same status as many old predecessors and meritorious officials.

"Who made me like a general who is only eighteen years old?"

Emperor Longqing took out a few pages of golden booklet from the wide sleeves of his Taoist robe and held it high to show everyone: "Do you see what this is? The Book of Heaven!

"Dong An is willing to betray me, betray Dasheng, and rebel in order to get the Book of Miraculous Weapons!
“But Chen Sanshi, after he got it, he did not show any greed and immediately handed it over to the court, without any fraud.

"Isn't such a loyal minister and good general worthy of a first-class title?
"I just want to show it to the world, and let him be a role model for the young talents in the world."

Many ministers remained silent.

"Your Majesty, what you said makes sense, but..."

After a long while, Yan Liang said hoarsely: "Your Majesty, there are strict regulations for being a pillar of state. At least one heavenly merit, plus several first-class military merits. Lord Chen has the heavenly merit, but the number of first-class military merits is not enough."

"Easy to handle."

Emperor Longqing leaned against the dragon throne and said slowly, "Transfer him to the eastern battlefield in a while and give him another chance to make merit."

"East..."

Gao Bo, the Minister of War, pondered: "Your Majesty, Liangzhou is in the far west, and the distance to Laizhou is too far. The cost of transferring troops from Liangzhou may be too high."

"I have no intention of transferring troops from Liangzhou."

Emperor Longqing pondered and said, "Let's transfer 3,000 black armored soldiers from the several personal guard camps around the capital. How can such a talented general be successful without anyone to use him?"

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

"Alright, everyone leave. The Crown Prince stays, and Fang Qingyun stays."

"..."

Soon, there were only a handful of people left in the huge hall.

"Prince."

Emperor Longqing spoke calmly but with a hint of pressure: "Why didn't Sha Wenlong listen to Chen Sanshi's advice and lead his entire army across the Hongze River?"

"As a general, stability is the most important thing."

The prince pondered, "If the entire army is intercepted while crossing east, it will lead to irreversible consequences."

"So, I should reward them?"

Emperor Longqing did not go into the details and changed the subject: "Fang Qingyun, why have you been silent all this time? What do you think about the matter of becoming the Grand Secretary?"

"I also think there is something wrong."

Fang Qingyun, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said calmly, "He is still too young after all. The reputation brought by the title of Shangzhuguo is a bit too high."

"Ah."

Emperor Longqing twitched his lower lip imperceptibly, and likewise stopped talking, changing the subject again: "Chen Sanshi wrote me a memorial, saying that he has a man named Xu Wencai under him, and he hopes that I can give him some rewards. How much do you know about this man, Lord Fang?"

"Mr. Xu is a man of great talent, even more talented than me. If he had not come from a humble background, he would have long been a scholar-general."

Fang Qingyun replied: "He has always been by Chen Sanshi's side. He must have made great efforts during the Fourth Crossing of the Hongze River. He deserves a reward."

"Even you say so. It seems like he is another talented person."

Emperor Longqing pondered and said, "I hope I can give Xu Wencai an official position, but I heard that Mr. Xu's greatest dream in life is to be given the title of 'Wolong' one day. Why didn't Chen Sanshi tell me directly? Is he worried that I am stingy and will not give him the title?"

"Your Majesty knows everything."

Fang Qingyun said calmly: "Mr. Xu is indeed obsessed with the title."

Emperor Longqing said quietly, "The title of 'Wolong' is on the same level as your 'Phoenix Child'. Do you have any objection?"

"My nickname was originally just a rumor, but it became true as it spread. Mr. Xu is no worse than me, so why not?" Fang Qingyun said, "The only thing we need to worry about is the corresponding pressure on him. I don't know if he can handle it."

"Pressure? Pressure can stimulate potential! I must give him the title of 'Wolong'."

Emperor Longqing said: "If I remember correctly, there are still some small rebels and bandits on the border of Youzhou. Let's ask Wolong to lead the troops to suppress them and give him a chance to make meritorious deeds independently."

"So good."

Fang Qingyun said meaningfully: "Your Majesty, I'm sure Mr. Xu will be grateful for this arrangement."

"You will also follow us to the next battle in Laizhou."

Emperor Longqing slowly stood up and handed over the heavenly book: "And this, take it too."

"Your Majesty, why is this happening?"

Fang Qingyun did not answer: "This is a heavenly book, your humble servant..."

"What are you pretending for?"

Emperor Longqing narrowed his eyes and said, "I know you can understand it. Memorize it and return it to the court. When you get to the east, you can teach Chen Sanshi if you want. I will allow you to do so."

"Wei Chen obeys your orders."

Only then did Fang Qingyun put away the heavenly book.

Emperor Longqing turned away and soon disappeared among the layers of curtains.

Several eunuchs followed suit and left.

Soon, the Crown Prince and Fang Qingyun were the only two people left in the hall.

"Da da~"

The prince stood up with the help of a cane and tremblingly came to the scholar. After handing the cane to the scholar, he grabbed the handle of the wheelchair with both hands and pushed him forward: "General Fang, let's go. I will see you off."

When the wheelchair reached the threshold of the hall, he couldn't lift it, so he called a few young eunuchs outside to help carry it out, and then continued to push it slowly forward.

An autumn breeze blew by, and both people in front and behind started coughing.

"General Fang, please take care of your health."

"Your Highness should be more careful. Don't push me anymore. I can do it myself."

"It's okay, it's okay. It's rare for you and me to get together, so it's only natural for us to walk around and chat together."

silence.

After walking out of the Wanshou Palace and arriving at the outskirts of the Imperial Palace, Fang Qingyun took out the Heavenly Book from his arms and handed it to him: "Your Highness, do you want to see it?"

"Haha, you can just take a look."

The prince stopped and looked through the heavenly book: "I don't understand it, please ask General Fang to translate it and copy it for me."

"Your Majesty is very generous."

Fang Qingyun took back the heavenly book: "What is recorded in it are all genuine immortal formations, and they are actually made public like this."

"Then do you know why I've been so generous to you guys recently?"

The prince pushed the wheelchair again, bent down slightly, and said in a tone that was almost like telling a ghost story: "I can agree to expand the camp, and I will also take out the Heavenly Book to share with you."

Fang Qingyun looked behind him and said, "Your Highness, just say whatever you want to say. Why beat around the bush?"

"Commander Sun, are you dying?"

The prince did not seem to continue the previous topic: "After the expansion, the Liangzhou team will be stronger, but there will be a lot of new people, and a lot of them. What does this mean? I don't need to explain it too clearly, right? General Fang, have you ever thought about where your eight camps will go in a few years?"

Fang Qingyun said as a matter of course: "Of course I will obey your majesty's orders."

"..."

Silence again.

"General Fang."

The prince spoke again: "Tell me the truth, how do you think I am?"

"Your Highness has been regent for forty years, and has always worked diligently and conscientiously. This is an indisputable fact."

Fang Qingyun leaned over and said, "But now that His Majesty's retreat has ended, Your Highness can finally have a good rest and recuperate."

He deliberately emphasized the second half of the sentence.

"..."

The prince's eyelids twitched uncontrollably. "Actually, Father is so old, he should have a good rest. The burden of the Great Sheng Dynasty should be borne by his son, me. Don't you think so, General Fang?"

"is it?"

Fang Qingyun stretched out his tone: "I think your majesty is in the prime of his life."

"Yeah, it was the heyday of Spring and Autumn, cough cough cough..."

"It's great that Spring and Autumn is in its heyday. I'm happy for my father, too. Ahem…"

Fang Qingyun heard the voice behind him getting farther and farther away. He turned around with difficulty and saw that the person had quietly taken back his crutches and left, leaving him alone sitting in the wheelchair, feeling the autumn wind and fallen leaves blowing against him.

He hurriedly shouted: "Your Highness, what do you mean? At least take me to a place where there are people, Your Highness?!"

It’s at least five miles from here to where there are people!
You have to turn the wheels yourself for these five miles!

……

Chen Mansion.

"Ninth Senior Sister, welcome back 'home'."

Chen Sanshi made a gesture of invitation: "I have arranged a wing room for you in the second courtyard according to your preferences. See if you need anything. I will prepare it immediately. My Xixi, Duhe, and even Yuhuan like my sister very much. If you don't mind, you can live here when you return to Liangzhou in the future."

"Why are you so cunning, kid?"

Rong Yanqiu tied the letter to Hai Dongqing's legs, and after letting him go, she rolled her eyes and said, "You just want me to be your family's guard? That sounds nice. Come and massage my shoulders, and tell me how you came up with the idea of ​​crossing the Hongze River four times. If I am happy to hear it, I will agree to be your guard dog."

"Sister, why are you saying such harsh words?"

Chen Sanshi went forward to give him a massage.

Only after he had served the other party to his satisfaction did he get to the point: "Ninth Senior Sister, can you tell me about the Xuanxiang realm?"

"You want to understand the mysterious phenomena so soon. Could it be that you are about to open up your meridians?"

Rong Yanqiu was slightly surprised, and then said: "The Xuanxiang realm is to transform strength into Gangqi, and the whole realm is to improve the use of Gangqi.

"The introduction to the technique can be understood as transforming the strength added to the weapon into Gang Qi. This Gang Qi is more substantial and can be used not only for attack but also for defense.

“After mastering it, you can send out the energy, which is equivalent to a means of attacking from a distance, but it usually doesn’t reach too far.

"When you reach a minor level, you will be able to possess protective qi. As long as you are not exhausted, your defense will basically not be broken by people below your level on the battlefield.

"After it is fully developed, it can transform into a physical form and be ten feet away from the body, for example..."

"Shh-"

She suddenly struck out with her palm, and an almost transparent aura appeared. It transformed into the shape of a python in the void and then shot out. It landed on the potted plant in front and blew it into pieces. Siqin, who happened to be passing by, was so scared that she screamed and almost jumped up.

Even if it’s just for display.

Chen Sanshi could also feel the terrible power.

He asked, "What about the entry-level Gang Qi?"

"Come and try to stab me."

Rong Yanqiu just sat there and made a pinky promise to him.

"Sister, I'm offended!"

Chen Sanshi didn't hesitate and grabbed the Five Tigers Soul-Breaking Spear beside him. All the blessings in his body began to accumulate layer by layer, and finally turned into true dragon power and infused into the spear. He stabbed out fiercely with a buzzing sound.

Rong Yanqiu did not dodge or evade. His right hand with lavender nails reached forward like a lotus. Under the influence of the strong energy, he actually grabbed the sharp blade of the gun with his bare hands.

The moment she touched the spear blade, her laziness was swept away, and she hurriedly pushed the spear blade away. At the same time, she turned over like a swallow and hid to the side, saying unhappily: "You are a real dragon power, why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"Senior sister didn't ask me either."

Chen Sanshi spread his hands to show his innocence.

"Go away, I don't want to play with you anymore. Your newly painted nails are all split."

Rong Yanqiu snorted coldly, stood up and walked into the side room, closed the door and started to do something.

"hiss……"

Chen Sanshi put away his spear and moved his numb arms.

Even if Senior Sister deliberately suppressed it to the entry level of Xuanxiang Realm, would the gap still be so big?
The reason why Rong Yanqiu dodged just now was not because he was not the opponent. It was because on the one hand he was caught off guard and was strangled by the True Dragon Power for the second time. On the other hand, he did not want to continue to invest his internal energy and hurt himself.

But... sword energy can be used!
After personal experience, Chen Sanshi was certain that the sword energy technique would have no problem breaking through the vital energy of a martial artist who had just entered the Xuan Xiang technique.

Cao Fan, the eunuchs, and Sha Wenlong.

If we have to deal with these three people, we might as well deal with them all at once.

Sha Wenlong can solve the problem with just a sword technique, so the next step is to deal with the personal eunuch. He has mastered the art of Tongmai and was carefully selected from the imperial palace. Even if he has a disabled body, he is most likely a genius in terms of physique. He is not comparable to the Mingzhou rebels or the Red Eyebrows. It is a very simple truth. If he is not gifted, why train him when there are so many eunuchs in the palace?

Jinyiwei and eunuchs should not be underestimated.
To be on the safe side, you need to be proficient in the Tongmai technique so that you can be sure of killing it quickly.

It's not that the beginners of the martial arts are completely unable to fight. What Chen Sanshi pursues is a quick kill. Once he gets involved in a fierce battle, it is easy for someone to slip through the net and expose his identity.

"The longbow needs to be upgraded!"

"Ninth Senior Sister is staying at home too, so you can go out for a few days without worry."

……

Luotian Mountains.

[Kung Fu: Dragon Spear of the Nation. Open Meridians (Not yet started)]

【Progress: 68/100】

Inside the cave.

"Tongmai is not far away!"

After taking a short rest, Chen Sanshi went into the forest with his spear in hand.

After he left the house, two Taoists from Ciyu Temple began to follow him, but they were quickly outstripped by Qianxun after leaving the city. They were unable to follow him into the Luotian Mountains, and the matter ended in nothing.

Now it can be confirmed.

They were the ones who put the "poison" in the Yangshen Soup. They were not the same group as the Xiangshen Sect. The two groups had two completely different goals, but they both used Ciyu Temple as an anchor to hide.

The biggest possibility is that they are from the Wushen Cult.

What they did was most likely to be about the evil spirit deep in the Luotian Mountains. What exactly was hidden in it...

I can still vividly remember Zhang Huaimin's ascension to a higher state outside Dongyi City.

But after that incident, nothing like this happened again.

Just people keep dying and dying...

As a result, some second-rate sects in Liangzhou City are almost destroyed.

If this continues, it is possible that they will be forced to rebel.

"Now I have reached the perfection of my energy."

"Last time I reached the Yaeyama Mountains, let's see how high we can reach this time!"

After two days and nights of hard work.

Chen Sanshi returned to the vicinity of Yaeyama and entered the territory of the fierce monster again.

"Boom!"

You hear the sound before you see its shape.

A roar like the sound of stones hitting each other was heard, and a ball of dark evil energy descended from the sky!

"Om-"

The Five Tigers Soul-Breaking Spear transformed into a sea-going dragon with a buzzing sound and collided with the black shadow that appeared in front of it almost instantly. A harsh metal friction sound was heard, which startled the surrounding birds into panic.

The sharpness of the beast's claws is comparable to that of metal. In terms of pure strength, it is not weaker than a warrior who has reached the perfection of Hua Jin with the blessing of force. It is even slightly stronger due to its beastly body.

However, after the two sides came into contact, the force on the gun blade continued to strangle, just like a static weapon encountering a rotating electric saw, making a "crackling" sound, and sparks kept flying.

In the end, the fierce beast was defeated. Its huge body was thrown backwards by the impact, and it hit a tree trunk heavily, then it crawled on the ground to steady itself. Before it could gain a foothold, the silver dragon chased after it again.

The poisonous beast's claws and the gun blade kept colliding.

After several rounds, with a "crack", the ferocious claws could no longer withstand the bite of the real dragon and broke. It also completely lost the ability to fight against the warriors. Blood holes soon appeared on its strong body one after another. Finally, it suddenly fell to the ground, without any signs of life.

"This beast is much stronger than the average martial artist who has reached the great stage of Huajin!"

Although Chen Sanshi didn't expend much effort, he still couldn't help but sigh at the horror in the depths of the Luotian Mountains. There must be stronger poisonous or exotic beasts behind. No wonder it takes a warrior of a high level to kill their way in.

He drew out the Zhenyue Sword, bent down and skinned the monster and pulled out its tendons.

The elasticity and flexibility of the poisonous beast's tendons are extremely amazing. He tried to exert force, but it was difficult to tear them apart in a short period of time. No wonder it could leap dozens of feet in one leap. If it was farther away, it would look like it was flying. If the bowstring was made of it as the main material, there would be no problem in pulling the iron-framed bow weighing hundreds of stones.

The meat of the poisonous beast is inedible. Its bones are hard, but not as useful as black iron. It has basically no value to him now. He still has to move forward, so he just collects the tendons and leaves the body where it is.

Nine Mountains.

Chen Sanshi continued to explore forward, searching for what he wanted.

Ghost vein tree and intermittent grass.

The former is the material for the arrow shaft. After obtaining it, one can assemble a complete bow that can carry the power of a real dragon. The latter is the transaction promised to Miss Ningxiang.

"Bah!"

Chen Sanshi chopped off the head of the unknown poisonous beast in front of him with a sword, crossed another valley, and entered the Tenth Mountain. The surrounding vegetation became more lush. As soon as he entered, he saw dense poisonous insects crawling towards him. Those who were close were looking forward to it, eager for fresh flesh and blood.

"And there's miasma."

He was prepared. He took out a pill from his arms, swallowed it, and continued to quicken his pace.

"The energy between heaven and earth is changing!"

Chen Sanshi noticed that in the complex air between heaven and earth, some wisps of dark evil energy began to mix in, but they were very thin, so thin that even he had to be very careful to observe them.

"Inside this mountain..."

"Maybe there really is a miracle."

"Forget it, these are still too far away, let's look for the ghost vein tree first."

Ghost Vein Wood usually grows in dark places full of miasma and accompanied by many poisonous insects. Therefore, it is also poisonous. After using it to give a dying person a last-minute breath, the user will often die miserably and have to endure great pain.

It was recorded in "Bai Cao Tu".

The royal family of the previous Dynasty Yan once used this thing.

Because before the old emperor died, he did not make it clear whether he would pass the throne to his second son or his twelfth son, so the princes used the ghost vein wood on him, forcing him to come back to life and make it clear before dying in torture...

"It really does!"

Chen Sanshi quickly found the target in the woods ahead.

Luotian Mountains are truly rich in resources
The ghost vein wood grows extremely slowly. The one he found was only as thick as a baby's fist and more than one meter tall. At most, it could only be used to make dozens of arrow shafts.

"Look again!"

After Chen Sanshi killed four or five poisonous beasts that were comparable to those at the great stage of transformation, he finally entered the range of the Tenth Mountain. The miasma was more dense than before, and the evil energy between heaven and earth also increased significantly.

"Ghost Vein Wood..."

Before he went deep into the hinterland, he saw a ghost vein tree as thick as a human being growing in an environment surrounded by miasma. It was at least eight hundred years old. If the whole tree was cut down, it could be used to make endless arrow shafts.

But Chen Sanshi did not approach rashly.

Because in the tree hole of another big tree next to the ghost vein tree, there is a group of rich light blue mysterious energy. It is estimated that there is a strength of Tongmai Dacheng or even Xuanxiang realm. In such a place, there are actually strange beasts, which means that not all beasts will become poisonous beasts.

"Roar--"

A low roar was heard, and a huge creature slowly emerged from the tree hole.

This is a black bear!
Moreover, it was wearing an old cassock, with Buddhist beads hanging around its neck and a crescent shovel in its hand. No one knew how many years ago, some unlucky warrior encountered it and died at its hands.

If he didn't know the whereabouts of his fifth senior brother Meng Guangxin, Chen Sanshi would have suspected that his own senior brother had been murdered.

"Roar!"

After the black bear came out, it first rubbed its itch on the tree trunk, and then began to patrol its territory.

Chen Sanshi retreated decisively.

His sword skills are limited. Each time he uses them, one incense stick will be consumed. It is better to keep them to save his life. Besides, this bear is a strange beast, so it is best to keep its corpse intact for consumption.

Thinking like this.

Chen Sanshi turned back and cut down the ghost vein tree he had encountered earlier.

Dozens of arrow shafts are enough to last for a while.

Moreover, the iron materials provided by Xunxian Tower are only enough to make a dozen arrowheads at most, and it would not be enough even if so many tree trunks were cut down.

Fortunately, there was no miasma at all in a valley at the junction of the Jiuchong Mountain and the Shichong Mountain. Chen Sanshi not only killed three strange beasts in it, but also found the Duanxu Grass that Xunxian Tower wanted. It can be said that he had a fruitful harvest.

It was several days later when I carried all my belongings back to Liangzhou City.

Chen Sanshi left one of the strange beasts, which was of little help to high-level warriors, in the military camp, and carried the remaining two back home to Siqin Mohua to deal with. Then he took the iron-framed bow, the fierce tendon, and the ghost vein wood and went to the forge.

High-level alchemists need to have some skills, and so do craftsmen who forge weapons.

The person in charge of the forge is a muscular old man. It is said that he has followed Superintendent Sun since he was very young, and is one of his trusted old brothers. He has reached the realm of Tongmai Dacheng, and perhaps he will have a chance to reach the realm of Xuanxiang in these years. It is said that most of the weapons of the main generals of the eight camps were made by him, including Lu Ji's Fang Tian Huaji.

"You want to learn blacksmithing?"

Old Man Pang said with interest, "I heard that you were learning the power-quenching medicine a while ago, and now you are going to start forging iron again. Young man, don't you feel tired?"

"There are so many skills that you can't overwhelm your body."

Chen Sanshi clasped his fists and said, "Please give me some advice, Senior Pang."

He did not hide the specialness of the material. After it is used on the battlefield in the future, everyone will know it sooner or later. Besides, it is not something from the gods and can be found in the mortal world, so there is nothing wrong with knowing it.

But before that, I still hope to keep an opportunity to make a splash and not let my opponent be on guard from the beginning. Besides, it is always better to have more skills, which is also my true inner thought. The two are not contradictory.

"Oh, I'm old now. If someone else comes, I won't teach you. But you have to teach me anyway."

Old Man Pang quickly brought a booklet from somewhere else: "This is a set of hammer techniques. Go back and practice it first, then come back to find me."

Chen Sanshi said: "I have already learned it."

After quickly mastering the sword technique, he took time out in the past few days to practice two more weapons, one is a knife and the other is a hammer. The skills that the old senior brought over happened to be the ones he practiced.

"Oh?"

Old Man Pang said in surprise: "That's great, let's get started!"

He came to the forging table.

"In any of the 360 ​​professions, laymen watch the excitement while experts watch the details!"

"Take forging weapons as an example."

"It is divided into three grades, namely, upper, middle and lower, plus the best grade."

"The Five Tiger Soul-Severing Spear in your hand is of the highest quality, and the Zhenyue Sword is of the highest quality. They are more than enough for you to use. There is actually no need to learn how to forge iron."

"Since you want to learn, just watch carefully!"

“It’s not difficult to be a blacksmith, but there are many tricks involved.”

"For example, what degree of burning, what temperature to use, the water temperature during quenching, etc...."

After a lot of hard work, Old Man Pang forged a black iron sword: "This sword is a top-grade black weapon. How is it? Have you learned it? You can try with ordinary iron first."

"almost."

Chen Sanshi started working on it on the spot and in one go he forged a sword that was considered to be top-quality even among ordinary iron materials.

[Skill: Forging. Ordinary (Minor Achievement)]

【Progress: 0/2000】

【Effect: Nothing is impossible】

[Nothing is impossible: ordinary soldiers can be accomplished in one go]

Old Man Pang: “?”

He snatched the sword, held it in his hand and examined it carefully, confirming that it was a genuine top-grade product. He couldn't help but gasp repeatedly: "Boy, are you a human?"

Even Chen Sanshi himself was a little stunned.

Is it a small success right from the start?

Don’t even have to go through the entry process?
It’s right if you think about it carefully.

[Seven Apertures], [Photographic Memory], [Heart of Kirin], after adding all these together, if one still can't learn them, he would be a real idiot.

And it was indeed not as complicated as he had imagined.

First of all, you need to learn the hammering method, which uses strength to forge iron. It is similar to quenching medicine and is effortless to learn. You can learn it once you see it.

Chen Sanshi looked at the word "Fan" after the entry and knew that there might be not only immortals, but also immortal soldiers. It reminded him of the silver spear that appeared in his master's hand when he killed Ning Changqun.

"Okay, I don't think there's anything I need to teach you."

Old man Pang sighed somewhat dejectedly, feeling that his life seemed meaningless.

He took out some books and said, "The forging methods of different weapons are all recorded in them. Just follow them and don't come to me again."

"Thank you, Senior Pang."

Chen Sanshi clasped his fists and saluted.

He asked for a separate room in the forge and stayed in it for three days and three nights. He successfully improved his forging skills to the point where he was only one step away from perfection and was basically able to refine away the impurities in the iron.

Next, he used the iron material given by Xunxian Tower and the ghost vein wood to forge twelve arrows that could store energy. Finally, he found more auxiliary materials and made the bowstring of the iron bow mainly with the fierce tendons, thus declaring his work complete.

"It's done!"

Chen Sanshi took the iron bow and returned to his backyard. After locking the door, he moved a stone more than half a person's height to use as a target.

The weight of this iron-framed bow alone is far greater than that of ordinary weapons. There is a sharp blade at each end of the bow. Even if it is used as a close-range weapon to kill the enemy, there is absolutely no problem at all.

"Om-"

After he put the bow and arrow on, he gently pulled the bowstring.

Hundred-stone bow.

That is about 15,000 kilograms, which is nothing to a martial artist with Hua Jin. This is also the reason why no one uses bows and arrows. Even if the bow is heavy, without the bonus of special power, a martial artist at a high level can easily block it.

But, from now on.

Starting from the iron bow in his hand, everything will be rewritten.

Bows and arrows will shine on the battlefield!
"Om-"

The dragon-elephant blood in Chen Sanshi's body began to boil, and he slowly pulled the bowstring weighing ten thousand pounds. The true dragon power generated by the blood and qi gathered on his arms and then spread to the bow body, and finally condensed on the arrow shaft made of ghost vein wood, and then transmitted to the arrow head. The whole bow was humming like a divine beast ready to go, and it was ready to move, as if it would break free from the restraints and break out of the seal at any time.

"boom--"

The moment he let go, there was a loud bang.

The arrow made of jet-black iron, carrying with it the majestic and vast power of a true dragon, transformed into an unstoppable dragon in the air and slammed into a boulder more than half a person's height.

"boom!"

The hard rock shattered into pieces in an instant.

This is not a bow and arrow, it's clearly a cannon!
If it hit an ordinary soldier, with the help of the True Dragon Power, it would at least be a bloody hole the size of a fist, and it would be difficult to tell whether it was an arrow wound or not.

Chen Sanshi played with the iron bow and couldn't let it go.

If he meets an opponent in the future, as long as his strength is not stronger than his, no matter how high his realm is, he will be able to take his life in an instant.

For example, currently.

When Chen Sanshi encountered the beginners of Hua Jin and mastered it, he could basically kill them with one arrow.

As for minor achievements, it depends on one's talent.

If you are a genius, you can withstand five arrows. If you are mediocre or below, you can only withstand three arrows at most!
Within three arrows, the enemy general’s life will surely be taken!

Three arrows may sound like a lot, but don't forget that for him, shooting three arrows is just a matter of a split second. There is no need to waste time at all, and it will have unexpected effects on the battlefield.

If someone is at the same level as him, he can also be killed as long as the number of arrows is sufficient.

Unless you are at a higher level than him, you won't die directly from the bow and arrow.

This is just the transformation of strength!

Wait until he has opened up his meridians and even achieved the mysterious phenomenon!
As long as the material of his bow and arrow is strong enough, and can carry strength or energy, even if he is at the Xuanxiang realm, the commander of a camp will be nothing but a dead soul under the arrow!
and.

My archery skills are about to break through.

Chen Sanshi spent several more days practicing archery at the shooting range using ordinary arrows.

Nowadays, when he shoots arrows, he aims at dynamic targets.

Sun Buqi stood three hundred steps away and shot arrows randomly into the sky. Chen Sanshi's target was these arrows flying in the sky, and he still hit the target every time.

In the end, he felt as if the bow and arrow did not exist in his hand. He just saw the target with his eyes, and the arrow shot over by itself.

at last.

The archery panel, which had been silent for a long time, reappeared.

[Skill: Archery. Perfection (Breaking Limit Level 1)]

[Progress: (0/2000)]

[Effect: Any arrow shot out cannot be dodged]

[Unavoidable: Man and arrow become one, unavoidable. Automatically searches for the enemy within 300 steps, and cannot be dodged]

Cannot be avoided!

Chen Sanshi could feel it.

After he picked up the bow and arrow, any target within three hundred steps would be unable to dodge his arrows!

This also means.

Everyone must resist!
Unless you are very powerful or have good enough protective gear, there is only one way out, which is death!
