Promise Sword Emperor

Chapter 58 Ancient Masters

Ren Feng's understanding of weapon forging is far inferior to that of alchemy and medicine.

But he is also the son of the Emperor of Heaven after all, so he still knows the basics of Xuan Bing Xuan Weapon.Having practiced Wuji Sword Art for so long, Ren Feng has already clearly understood what kind of weapon he needs to maximize the power of Wuji Sword Soul.

Two days later, Ren Feng and Li Doudou arrived at King Qi's capital.

This is a very prosperous capital with the same scale as the King City of Chu. Among the businessmen who came and went, Ren Feng even saw Chu's characteristic costumes, which showed that although there were many conflicts between Qi and Chu, it did not prevent the businessmen from the two countries from doing business with each other.

The swordsmith Ren Feng is going to visit is called Gu Renfeng, who is respected as Gu Master in Qi State.

Although Master Gu's status is not as high as Chen Jingxian's chief alchemist in the palace, in the eyes of warriors, he is the pride of the Qi country, and even the king of Qi is more courteous.

King Qi has always wanted to ask Master Gu to be the Minister of War of Qi State, but he has a weird temper and hates red tape, so he has repeatedly rejected King Qi's kind invitation and spends more time at home studying weapon forging.

Master Gu lived in the Ancient Sword Villa outside the capital city, so it was easy to find out.

Ren Feng found an inn and asked Li Doudou to stay in the city to rest, and he went to visit Master Gu alone.

"Stop, this is the Ancient Sword Villa, without an invitation letter from Master Gu, no one else can go up the mountain!"

As soon as Ren Feng arrived at the foot of the ancient sword villa, he was stopped by a guard.

In the nearby generation, there are no other villages other than Gujian Villa, so the strangers who appear here are likely to come to find Master Gu.

Ren Feng knew that it would not be easy to meet Master Gu, so he was well prepared.

He cupped his hands and said, "I'm Ren Feng, please tell me that I'm introduced by Chen Jingxian from Chu State. I heard that the ancient master is very good at forging swords, so I come to visit you."

With that said, Ren Feng took out the imperial order from Chen Jingxian from the ring and handed it to the guard.

The guard obviously knew Chen Jingxian's name, and suddenly became polite, and said cheerfully: "Little brother, wait a moment, I will send someone to inform you."

"Thank you, thank you!"

Ren Feng took out another two elixir that he had refined while practicing some time ago, and gave it to the guard, saying, "It's a small thing, please trouble me!"

When the guard saw that it was actually a pill, he couldn't help but smile from ear to ear.

He said in his heart that Ren Feng is worthy of being the chief alchemist's friend, and his actions are generous.

A guard like him, to put it bluntly, is a dog raised by Master Gu's family. He looks beautiful on the surface, but anyone with some power and strength doesn't take him seriously.

After accepting Ren Feng's favor, the little brother immediately patted his chest and promised to help him pass the words to Master Gu's ears, and then walked up the mountain.

Seeing the back of the little brother going away, Ren Feng smiled.

It is still very useful to randomly refine some pills at ordinary times. The guards are short-handed, so they will definitely help to say something nice in front of Master Gu.

Sure enough, Ren Feng got a reply very quickly, and Master Gu agreed to meet him.

Ren Feng followed the guard brother into the Ancient Sword Villa, and found that there were other people visiting Master Gu. These people knew at a glance that they were either rich or expensive, or had extraordinary strength. One of them was wearing the military uniform of Qi State. , at least a senior official above the captaincy.

At this time, everyone was sitting in the spacious courtyard drinking tea, and they seemed to be familiar with each other, talking and laughing happily with each other.

Seeing Ren Feng coming in, the visitors were all startled.

Ren Feng looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. In their eyes, he was just a kid.

The visitors all frowned, guessing in private who Ren Feng was, and judging by the attitude of the guards towards him, he didn't look like a friend or relative of Master Gu.

Could it be that this kid also came to visit Master Gu?
At this time, a servant girl welcomed Ren Feng to his seat, made tea and water for him, comforted Ren Feng to wait for a while, and Master Gu came out to meet him after he finished his work.

Ren Feng smiled to express his gratitude, picked up the teacup, and inadvertently glanced at the other people present.

The military officer suddenly looked at Ren Feng, and asked directly: "I think the little brother is quite unfamiliar, isn't he from Qi, is he from another place?"

Ren Feng smiled slightly, put down his teacup and said, "Well, I'm from Chu."

Hearing that he was from the state of Chu, the military officer's face suddenly changed.

Hehe smiled, and said sarcastically: "Chu people came to our Qi country to visit Master Gu, you are not small, but it's no wonder, your Chu country can't even make a decent weapon, even your Chu country The weapon in the king's hand must have been forged by our master Gu."

At this time, another person reminded with a smile: "General Wu, the king of Chu is dead, who knows if he has the weapon of Master Gu in his hand, anyway, I heard that the king of Chu was shocked to death by someone's palm , Tsk tsk, it's really miserable!"

General Wu laughed, "The king of Chu thinks he's great, and he went to provoke the masters of the sect, he deserves to die!"

While speaking, he glanced at Ren Feng.

However, Ren Feng ignored their ridicule, but he couldn't help frowning when he heard the news of King Chu's death.

"The king of Chu is dead?"

Ren Feng remembered that before leaving home, he taught Chen Jingxian the secret method of refining a kind of elixir, which could stabilize the King of Chu's injury. As long as he took care of it properly, healing would not be a problem.

Unexpectedly, only a few months after Ren Feng left, King Chu died?
"Could it be that Chen Jingxian failed in alchemy?"

Ren Feng couldn't figure it out. With Chen Jingxian's strength, even if he failed once or twice, he would always succeed if he tried a few more times. King Chu's injury wouldn't mean he couldn't afford to wait for ten days and a half months.

Although Ren Feng didn't care about King Chu's life or death, the Ren family was a family of warlords of Chu State after all, and the collapse of Chu State would inevitably cause a series of turmoil.

I don't know what's going on in Chu State now, is Mother in danger?
For a moment, Ren Feng was very worried about his mother's safety.

"Haha, look at this kid, he's so scared that he doesn't even dare to let a fart go, he's such a useless coward, and I don't know how Master Gu would meet such a kid with no hair." General Wu saw that Ren Feng didn't speak. , continue to mock.

Immediately, someone laughed and said, "I spent money to find someone to help introduce me!"

At this time, Master Gu finally came late.

The person was still outside the door, but the thick and resonant voice came in, "I'm really sorry to keep you waiting for a long time, Gu Mou has lost his way, he has lost his way!"

Including Ren Feng, everyone immediately stood up and looked towards Master Gu.

Originally thought that Master Gu was a tall and unpredictable old man, but seeing Master Gu himself now was a bit unexpected.

Master Gu looks to be around fifty, and is very short, but his body is very thick, with strong muscles all over his body, and he is full of strength at a glance.

Everyone was about to go up to greet Master Gu, but unexpectedly, Master Gu shouted directly in a loud voice: "Which one is Ren Feng, stand up and let the old man take a look, old man Chen hasn't come to see me for so many years, why send a little guy here?" What's the meaning?"
