Daqizong

Copper Mountain Dojo.

Rows of towering stone pagodas, numerous pavilions, self-cultivation abodes are in order, and courtyards are connected. It is a temporary residence built by the alliance and lent to visitors from all walks of life.

All casual cultivators who come to Tongshan to seek their dreams, disciples who have experienced deacons from all walks of life, and customers who are looking for magic weapons, all settle here.

Sanxiu Yiheng also lives in the courtyards of these abodes at this time, communicates with his colleagues every day, participates in the research of skills, and learns the Dharma.

But this day, he didn't go out, but with a worried expression on his face, he circled the stone chair in his yard with his hands behind his back, looking restless.

Yi Heng is a down-and-out casual cultivator from a poor family. He has been living here since he accidentally obtained the secret biography of the predecessors from the ancient ruins ten years ago and turned into an instrument cultivator. However, he has encountered several difficulties recently and a heavy burden Inevitably on the shoulders.

It's a long story, but in the final analysis, it's still a money word.

Becoming a weapon cultivator is a career with a bright future. However, cultivating the way of weapons is mostly about refining magic weapons, and the method of making money is rarely beneficial to cultivation. If you want to keep pace with the level of weapon refining, you have to spend a lot of money to buy spiritual weapons. Dan, it is not allowed to use various secret medicines.

Ordinary cultivators also need to spend a lot of vitality to refine weapons, and supplements such as Yiqi Pill and Clear Condensation Dew that can restore vitality are not a small expense.

Then there are the precious materials needed for various refining tools, and the necessary expenses on the way to learn.

The savings in Yi Heng's pocket are decreasing day by day, all because he recently obtained a brand new map of magic treasures. All materials were scrapped.

Whenever he thinks of this matter, Yi Heng can't help but shiver, deep helplessness arises spontaneously from the bottom of his heart.

"Forging is a good way to make money, but no one has ever told me that it costs so much to learn how to forge!"

Yi Heng sighed secretly, and finally realized what it means to be stumped by a penny for a hero.

It has been a long time since he came to this copper mountain. He put up a lot of savings for refining weapons, but because of his limited qualifications, he doesn't have a deep understanding of various Dao patterns and restrictions. Every time he refines magic weapons, he often damages them. There are countless magic weapons scrapped.

"If you follow the rules and have been relying on the vestments you learned in the past to make money, you can barely maintain it, but you only know how to refine one or two kinds of utensils. There is no future. You can only learn more magic weapon refining methods, and even refine rare magic weapons. , have the hope of getting ahead."

"However, it is not an easy task to learn these things. It takes a lot of precious materials just to explore and become proficient."

Yi Heng secretly smiled wryly, he was also unwilling to be mediocre, so he just chose to fight hard, but now, he failed to get ahead, and instead owed a large sum of money to the dojo.

"If I can't pay back the money, once the deadline is up, even the place I live in will be taken back, and the ashram is not a good hall. I will definitely be arrested as an apprentice, and I will be forced to pay off my debts. It will take a few more years. When will I be able to get the robes map figure it out?"

Yi Heng scratched his hair again and again, but couldn't think of a solution.

"Yi Daoyou, what are you doing here!"

Suddenly, a young voice came in.

Yi Heng looked back and couldn't help but smile wryly: "Friend Mu, you're here."

Fellow Daoist Mu smiled and said, "I saw you frowning as soon as you entered the door, what's the matter?"

Yi Heng had a bitter look on his face: "Don't mention it, I owe a lot of money to the dojo recently, and I'm worrying about how to pay it off."

Seeing this, Fellow Daoist Mu hurriedly typed a haha, not daring to pick up the topic, lest he ask to borrow money in the next sentence.

He casually comforted a few words, all of which were useless empty words, but suddenly remembered something: "Why don't you go to the Green Bamboo Peak and visit Li Daoyou for a try?"

Yi Heng was a little confused: "Li Daoyou, which Li Daoyou?"

Seeing this, Fellow Daoist Mu couldn't help opening his mouth slightly, his face full of astonishment: "No way, you don't even know about Fellow Daoist Li, no wonder you're stuck here worrying!"

Yi Heng smiled wryly and said: "You know, I have consciously improved my cultivation these days, and I want to try to refine treasures and magic weapons, and the days of retreat and cultivation have been longer... You haven't told me yet, this Who exactly is Li Daoyou, and why do you mention him?"

Fellow Daoist Mu sighed, and said: "This is what's wrong with you. You should pay attention to the outside world, so that you can be well-informed and flexible. Daoyou Li is the one who just came to Tongshan recently. He is about the same age as us, but he has already formed a relationship. Dan, comparable to the master's Tiangong workshop... His respect and taboo is called Li Wan."

Fellow Daoist Mu then told Yi Heng some of Li Wan's deeds.

Young and wealthy, accompanied by a beautiful woman, successful in cultivation... There are also Dou Huaxuan, Dou Wu Yezi, Dou Hong Master, etc., vague deeds spread, and Yi Heng was shocked when he heard it.

"What, you are three years younger than me, and you have already formed a pill!"

"I used to refine a peerless magic weapon, a peerless real weapon!"

"Kill Huo Yanluo, and hang his corpse on the door beam for public display!"

If Li Wan was just a young master of the Foundation Establishment Realm, a Qi Refining Realm cultivator like Yi Heng might feel jealous and compared, but since he has already formed an alchemy, the gap cannot be taken lightly.

At this moment, Yi Heng only has envy and admiration.

"Great power, really great power, they all come from humble backgrounds, and they all have adventures, why can he be like this..."

Fellow Daoist Mu praised Li Wan, and said: "The most rare thing is that although Fellow Daoist Li is young and vigorous, he is not overbearing. He is also very arrogant towards us who are less advanced. I heard recently that Several groups of people have gone to ask him for advice or to borrow money, and he has taken care of them all without any impatience."

When Yi Heng heard this, he couldn't help but wake up from the envy and worship, and frowned: "What do you mean by that, is it possible that you want me to fight the autumn wind?"

Traveling in the rivers and lakes, it is inevitable to rescue emergencies. It is common for fellow Taoists to turn around and help each other, but Yi Heng thinks that he is short of a lot of money, so he can't bear to talk about it.

Fellow Daoist Mu laughed and said, "Come on, tens of thousands of Lingyu is a lot of money to you, but in the eyes of Daoyou Li, it's just a drizzle. There are few people, and there is even one named Huang Zhen, who not only subsidizes the money spent on refining the Qinghong Clothes, but also custom-made another one, which cost 50 in one go, which is much more generous than Master Hong."

When Yi Heng heard this, he couldn't help being startled again: "Huang Zhen..."

He recognized Huang Zhen as a craftsman living nearby, with a slightly higher level of cultivation than himself, but he never thought that this person also had the help of Li Daoyou.

Seeing that he was still twitching, Fellow Daoist Mu couldn't help curling his lips, and Suo Xing made up his mind for him: "That's good for Suo Xing, if you have any plans to ask Li Daoyou about the Qi Dao, get ready together, we will prepare some gifts, wait Next time, come and visit!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about Sanqi 21, and pulled him outside.

"Hey, you, don't make up your own mind, I haven't figured it out yet..."

"Whatever you think, you will suffer for your face!"

After all, Yi Heng couldn't hold back Fellow Daoist Mu, so he brought a few bottles of water and wine and a few pieces of concentrated ore, and paid a shabby visit.

With a bit of apprehension, he knocked on the door, delivered a call letter, and explained his intentions, but he was delighted to hear that Li Wan was just at home and would be able to meet him immediately.

……

"Li Daoyou, in recent days, more and more craftsmen have come to visit us."

In the mansion, after Shi Haoguang reported the news from the porter, he couldn't help sighing.

Ever since the news spread that Huang Zhen had obtained hundreds of thousands of Lingyu from Li Wan, someone tried to come to the door again, and got Li Wan's guidance and help.

These people spread the reputation among each other, and spread like wildfire, and some even gave him a timely nickname.

Li Wan smiled and said: "My original wish is to help if I can. Later, more and more people came to ask for help, but I started to get tired of dealing with it. Fortunately, I got bored in the future. Just find an excuse to travel or retreat. Not passive. But there are villains spreading rumors in the streets and alleys, saying that I, Li Wan, are fishing for fame. In fact, they are right. I really want to sell and want to fish. Far better is a hypocrite who steals his name."

Once a person becomes famous, there are mixed reputations. Li Wan's actions these days have been seen by those who care about him. It is not difficult to find that they are preparations for becoming famous and becoming a master in the future.

Because Li Wan's foundation is weak, he almost started from nothing as an unknown casual cultivator. It is not easy to gather a large number of disciples and friends around him.

What Li Wan is eyeing now is the fellows on the Copper Mountain, especially the young and powerful talents with great potential, who are even more valued by him.

The method he chooses is to form good karma, and he doesn't care that all those who have received favors can repay their kindness, but it is enough to get a good reputation and be able to make friends with one out of ten.

"Let's go, I heard that the one who came today is a young instrument repairer from Tongshan, I want to see what kind of talent he has."

Li Wan took Shi Haoguang to the front hall and met Yi Heng.

Yi Heng came here to fight the autumn wind, but he was too embarrassed to cut straight to the point, so he chatted with Li Wan in a rambling manner, but he didn't know that Li Wan was also testing him secretly. visible level.

"This son's basic skills are not solid, but he has spent a lot of thought on the map he is proficient in. It should be a noble son from a poor family who is not talented but has a great heart and is willing to work hard."

Li Wan had seen this kind of person a lot these days, so he remained calm and waited patiently for him to make the request.

With a bit of shame on Yi Heng's face, he finally said clearly: "... I'm ashamed to say that I wanted to forge precious magic weapons to advance to the next level, but I accidentally wasted all the treasures. Now I really have nowhere to go. I heard that Li Daoyou is anxious for justice, and Yi has the audacity to come to ask for help, and I hope that it will be convenient for you..."

Li Wan smiled slightly: "I don't know how much fellow Daoist Yi wants to borrow?"

Yi Heng said in embarrassment: "It's better to have [-]..."

Li Wan smiled and said, "It's easy to say, only [-]."

Dang even beckoned and asked Shi Haoguang to take out the Lingyu.

Yi Heng held the kit tightly, and was speechless with gratitude for a long time. He never thought that the difficult problem that had troubled him for a long time could be solved with one sentence from Li Wan.

But I heard Li Wan say: "Friend Daoist Yi, it will be the first day of next month in seven days. I want to hold a banquet in the mansion and invite all fellow Taoists to participate in the Dao. I wonder if you can come here with respect?" (to be continued) .)
