427 Marquis Wu
When they passed through the door, Xia Pingan’s body had a huge reaction.
...To him, that feeling was exactly the same as when he had successfully fused with the realm Pearl. This feeling had not been there at all when he was drinking tea.
The explosive increase in divine power was imbuing his body, increasing all aspects of his abilities. At the same time, there were also changes in the secret mandala. Xia Pingan saw an additional statue in his secret mandala, which was exactly what Zhang Dai looked like when he was brewing the snow orchid tea.
He could actually summon Zhang Dai.
Xia Pingan was a little dumbfounded.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Light and shadow swirled in front of his eyes. When Xia Pingan’s foot landed on the ground, he was already standing on the bank of a river. In front of the river, thousands of meters away, there was a thatched cottage. Next to the thatched cottage, there was a pile of scattered stone armor on the bank of the river. The stone armor was shrouded in a faint layer of fog. It looked calm, but it made people’s hearts palpitate with fear. It was one with the world and was surging with murderous intent.
Xia Pingan could vaguely see an old man fishing near the river near the thatched cottage.
Hua Yan naturally followed Xia ping ‘an out of the door.
Hua Yan, who had stepped out of the door, had a strange expression on her face. She seemed to be a little confused. She looked around and then looked at Xia Pingan. She frowned and couldn’t help but ask, ” what happened to ran ran in that room just now? How did my divine Power’s upper limit increase by a whole 160 points all of a sudden?”
Xia Pingan glanced at her and felt a little strange. Senior Sister Hua, you don’t remember what happened just now? ”
that’s right. As soon as I stepped through the door, I only remembered that I seemed to have met an old man in that room just now. He invited the two of us to have tea, and we seemed to have said something to him. We chatted happily. As for the rest, I can’t remember. It’s a blur, just like a dream. Hua Yan tried hard to recall. Oh right, I also heard that the old man said that I could learn formations here. I don’t remember anything else!
Could it be that the room had an ability similar to the mystery of the realm in the realm bead?
Looking at Hua Yan’s appearance, he didn’t seem to be pretending at all. Xia Pingan couldn’t help but think of some things that true Lord Minghe had told him about the divine Palace before he came in. He always felt that many things that true Lord Minghe had introduced were vague and unclear. It seemed that people who had experienced it could only have a general impression and were not very clear about the layout of the rooms in the divine Palace. If some rooms were similar to the mystery of the boundary to a certain extent, it would make sense.
Senior Sister Hua, I’m the same as you. I can’t remember what happened in there. My divine power has increased by 160 points, and I remember that old man saying that I can learn the formation Kasaya here, ” Xia Pingan said foolishly.
Hua Yan thought for a moment, then shook his head and heaved a sigh of relief. then forget it. The room we just entered might be a little abnormal, but we still got some benefits. It should be considered a pass. Before I came in, I heard from my master that some rooms here might be like the world in the realm Pearl, mysterious and unpredictable, and even affect memory. It seems that it’s really a nightmare.
“Yes, that should be the case!” Xia Pingan quickly changed the topic and pointed to the stone Chi in front of them. I think there’s something strange over there. There’s someone fishing. Why don’t we go over and ask? ”
“Alright!”
The two of them ran towards the stone Chi in the distance. After a short while, the two of them arrived behind the fisherman.
Beside this fisherman were the stone puppets. The river in front of him was as green as Jade, flowing quietly. From time to time, chopstick-long fish would jump out of the water, appearing to be full of vitality.
The one fishing here was an old man in a straw raincoat. His eyebrows and beard were snow-white, and he looked elegant. He was fishing very casually, with the aura of a hermit master. When he saw Xia ping ‘an and Hua Yan land, the old man turned around and looked at the two of them. He even smiled and took the initiative to say, ” it’s been so many years. It’s rare for someone to come here. Do you want to learn arrays? the stone puppet in front of you is the eight array diagram. The mysteries of arrays are all in it. You can go on your own. How much you can get will depend on your ability. After entering the eight formation diagram, each person will have their own world. Even if you two enter together, you will have to split up and see your own fortune. It also depends on your fate. The killing technique of the eight formation diagram has not been activated yet. If you are not strong enough, you will not lose your life. You will just be trapped in a coma for a few days.”
Hua Yan was extremely arrogant. When he heard the old man’s words, he didn’t say a word. He only glanced at Xia Pingan and said, ” I’m going to see Qianqian. after saying this, Hua Yan’s figure flashed and he rushed into the stone armor. His figure hid in the fog and disappeared.
That feeling was very strange. Just now, Hua Yan was still in front of Xia Pingan, but as soon as she flew into the range of the stone armor, the fog rolled and she disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
haha, this girl is quite ambitious. the old man who was fishing laughed and shook his head. He turned back and looked at his fishing rod.
However, Xia ping ‘an was not in a hurry to enter. He squinted his eyes and looked at the old man carefully. Many thoughts were running through his mind. After Hua Yan left, Xia ping’ an straightened his clothes and bowed respectfully to the old man. He coughed lightly and said, ” I, Xia ping ‘an, a descendant of Yanhuang, pay my respects to senior. May I know your name? ”
When the old man heard Xia Pingan’s words, he was slightly stunned. He had already turned his head away, but he turned back again. His eyes flashed as he sized Xia Pingan up from head to toe. what did you just say? where are you from? ”
“I am Xia ping ‘an, a descendant of Yan Huang and a descendant of han.”
The old man stared at Xia ping ‘an for a few seconds and suddenly smiled. I’m just a village man in the mountains, so I don’t need to mention my name. But you, kid, are interesting. The secret of the eight formation diagram is in the stone puppet in front of us. Many people have come here for this. You put away those mysterious formations and don’t look for opportunities. Instead, you came here to chat with me, an old fishing man. Interesting, interesting. Could it be that you’re interested in the few salted fish that I, a village man, have caught? ”
Xia Pingan also laughed, ” the moment I saw senior, I felt that we were fated to meet. I wanted to have a chat with senior. What’s so good about those dead array stones? what’s so interesting about them? no one is interested in them. I want to have a chat with senior, and I’ll be satisfied, Yingluo.
“Go, go, go, don’t affect my fishing!” The old man waved his hand with a smile. if you want to talk to me, do me a favor. Go to the woodshed of my grass stove and make something for me. I live alone in the mountains and often encounter wolf packs. I don’t have a suitable weapon and I’m not good at sword and saber. Sometimes, I can’t even protect myself. If you can help me, I’m willing to talk to you!
“Senior, what do you want me to do?”
“I don’t know. What do you think I can use to defeat the wolves?” The old man asked.
“Fine. Senior, please wait a moment. I’ll go and see if I can help you make something for your self-defense!” After Xia Pingan finished speaking, he ran towards the old man’s straw stove. The woodshed was right next to the straw stove. There was a lot of wood, charcoal, stakes, anvils, stoves, bellows, and some tools used by carpenters and blacksmiths. There were all kinds of things and they took up half of the courtyard. They were just placed there casually and did not seem to be anything special.
Xia Pingan looked at the tools and the wood in the woodshed and had an answer in his mind. The next second, he picked up the tools, found the wood, and began to work.
First, he used a saw to saw the wood, then he used an axe and a plane to square it. After that, he used an ink brush to draw lines, and then he continued to saw, chisel, and all kinds of tools.
Slowly, a crossbow gradually took shape in Xia Pingan’s hands. However, this crossbow was different from ordinary crossbows. In the middle of the crossbow, there was a wooden box that looked like a magazine inserted into the body of the crossbow.
After the carpentry work was done, Xia Pingan started the stove and lit charcoal. He pulled the bellows and found some discarded copper in the courtyard. He then smelted it to make a steam engine.
After the copper was smelted, he poured the molten copper into the sand mold that he had prepared earlier. A few rough blanks for the copper parts were done.
After that, he polished the copper parts and installed them onto the crossbow.
With Xia Pingan’s physical strength, he did not eat or drink and worked like a machine for more than 20 hours before he finally made what he wanted.
It was a Zhuge repeating crossbow. Before the appearance of the rapid-fire firearm, this Zhuge repeating crossbow was an invincible close-range weapon on the battlefield!
The Zhuge repeating crossbow was a killing weapon invented by Zhuge Liang.
After making the Zhuge repeating crossbow, Xia Pingan fired an arrow. The repeating crossbow was loaded and fired in one breath. Within 20 steps, the arrow shot could easily penetrate the bamboo in the bamboo forest beside the thatched cottage.
After confirming that there was no problem with the Zhuge repeating crossbow, Xia Pingan took the Zhuge repeating crossbow and returned to the fishing old man’s side. He handed the Zhuge repeating crossbow to him with both hands and asked, ” senior, do you think this self-defense weapon is still usable? ”
The old man who was fishing took the Zhuge repeating crossbow that Xia Pingan handed to him. His eyes were slightly complicated. He gently stroked the crossbow with his hand and sighed softly. do the people of Yan Huang still remember the method of making this crossbow? ”
Xia Pingan said respectfully, ” this repeating crossbow is the same as the eight formation diagram. They are both symbols of the civilization of our Huaxia sages. They bear witness to the ability of our Huaxia sages to change the world. Ordinary people may not remember it, but how can scholars like us forget it? I made this crossbow myself when I was studying, but it was not the first time I made it!
“Oh, then what do you think of the person who made this crossbow?” The old man asked.
the person who made this crossbow is a man of great skill and knowledge. He left behind a piece of ‘lessons before horses’ that has been passed down for thousands of years. I believe he also knows about the evaluation. However, since senior has asked, I will answer with a pair of couplets outside the Marquis ‘temple! At this point, Xia ping ‘an cleared his throat and said a couplet, ” when it comes to saving the Emperor, his great grandson is loyal to the Emperor for three generations, and his History Brush is still as good as Chen Shu’s son; The amazing words on the banner of war, qianqiu’s tears and snot, the ink splattered on general Yue.”
After Xia Pingan finished speaking, the old man’s tears rolled down his face.
