After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 292 DIY Your Own Bronze Man

But now, even cultivators have to seek official positions.How could ordinary people believe that their ancestors were once able to stand shoulder to shoulder with gods and demons?
"I understand." He Lingchuan took out the potion from his arms and poured five drops into Elder Liang's empty bottle.

Elder Liang looked at his disciple, who ran out of the tent.

A quarter of an hour later, he came back again, holding a wooden bead in his hand.

This is the wooden bead under the sea where the beast soul lives.

He Lingchuan took it and looked, it seemed to be the soul of a giant ape.

Well not bad, no shoddy, deal done.

Elder Liang smiled at him, his expression calmed down, still neither salty nor bland.

Looking at his leaving back, He Lingchuan shrugged.

Although the history spanning nearly 3000 years is complicated, it cannot be blamed only on the gods and demons who are good at seductive people, and only on the fact that the number of people in the world has forgotten their ancestors.The Taoist sect of Xianzong also did a lot of unscrupulous things, which not only obliterated the heavenly achievements made by the ancestors, but also lost the goodwill of the common people.

These are the contents that Elder Liang deliberately did not mention, but He Lingchuan ate books as food in Wenxuan Pavilion in Panlong Dreamland, and he saw many works on this topic, so he would not just listen to them and believe them.

Look, reading more idle books is really good, isn't it?

Next, he swallowed his breakfast and went to the barracks to find someone.

Two quarters of an hour later, he went to look for Ling Guang again.

The monkey occupies a tent and concentrates on research, and strangers are not allowed to enter.For Young Master He's face, and because of its great ability to help the sick, the logistics officer didn't care that it made the whole camp go crazy just last night.

As soon as He Lingchuan entered the tent, Lingguang turned around and glared, wanting to scold, but when he saw that it was him, his mouth retracted.

"Is there anything out there?"

Ling Guang withered immediately: "It will take some time."

He Lingchuan saw that its monkey eyes were red, and knew that it hadn't slept all night. "The great immortals in the middle ages haven't researched the way. You figured out the credit in one night? Okay, take a break and lend me the pill furnace by the way."

The monkey immediately became nervous. As a medicine ape, the pill furnace is its lifeblood: "What are you going to do?"

"I want to make a treasure, and I don't have a suitable stove at hand. Just lend me a use, it will be very fast."

"If you need any medicine, I will practice it."

"I want to make a prop, can you?" He Lingchuan glanced around the tent, but didn't see the pill furnace.

The monkey was even more surprised: "Forging weapons? You?" Why didn't you go back to Dunyu City to find Li Fubo again, what kind of weapons are you refining in the front line?
"Hurry up, don't scratch, you won't damage your stove!" He Lingchuan became impatient, "I'll make a bronze figure, it's extremely simple!"

"Copper smelter?" Ling Guang was stunned, "I can't fit the stove."

"Small." He Lingchuan gestured, "It's only half the size of my palm."

He urged again and again, Lingguang reluctantly took out the toy-like three-legged stove from his pocket and put it on the ground, and recited a few formulas casually.

The brass stove immediately became larger, about six feet high, and the whole body was so bright that it could reflect light.

It can be seen that Lingguang loves it in peacetime.

He Lingchuan had been pondering the Golden Armored Bronze Man Technique in the Panlong Dreamland, and he had gone over and over every detail many times. After all, the refining cost was extremely high, and even if there was a slight mistake, he couldn't afford it.

Fortunately, this secret technique has a characteristic:

The difficulty of the Bronze Man Technique lies in how the master can control it, but the refining process is rather simple, with only four or five steps in total.

For a beginner/rookie like him, that's quite friendly.

The stove has been turned on, and the heat is three minutes, He Lingchuan puts gold, refined iron and other materials into it one by one according to the diagram in the secret scroll.

In his dream, he looked at the drawings and found that he had six of the seven or eight materials needed to refine the bronze man!
They were all scraps left over from remaking the Floating Life Saber, before he had time to clean the storage ring, they turned into ready-made materials.In particular, gold and fine iron are the most important. Without them, the bronze figure would be nothing but copper clay, without any bones.

Although the remaining one or two are missing, the remarkable thing is that the copper man's skin is not so strong and his movements are not so flexible.It is also explained in the secret volume that if the creator has experience in the later stage, he can also add extra ingredients during refining to DIY a more distinctive golden armored bronze figure.

He Lingchuan doesn't need anything more distinctive at this stage, he just wants a pair of copper-skinned iron bones that can defend, fight and assist.

He also understood Lingguang's surprise, but after a dream last night, Wen Daolun once again reminded him that the evil he was facing was not easy to resolve, which made him feel even more urgent, so he decided to refine the bronze figure as soon as possible.

There is no perfect preparation in this world, what is most suitable right now is the best.

He has been urging Lingguang to raise the temperature of the furnace, otherwise the gold won't melt at all.It is also thanks to the power of the treasure furnace in Lingguang's hand, and some special medicines actually need to add metal and various hardwoods that are difficult to burn, otherwise the general medicine furnace can only be heated to four or five hundred degrees, and even iron can be smelted. Not melted.

As the furnace heated up all the way, Ling Guang didn't know where its limit was, so he became more cautious.Fortunately, at this time, the most difficult-to-melt 铻金 also began to soften. Lingguang carefully controlled the temperature of the furnace, and He Lingchuan took out a set of templates from his arms: "Pour it here."

Ling Guang didn't dare to speak, his eyes clearly asked: "Where did you come from?"

The formwork is as big as two palms, with a human-shaped groove in the middle, and is divided into many layers and parts. It is a very standard metal forming formwork.

This is the front line of the war, where did He Lingchuan get this whole set of templates in a hurry?

He grinned: "Yesterday someone summoned a green scarf wrestler to beat a cow, do you remember?"

Lingguang nodded.

"He has it there, and he borrowed it for two taels of silver, and he has to return it when he runs out." The man didn't forge a bronze man with gold armor, but the appearance of this kind of large-scale summoned creature is not too different. Templates will do.

Inside, men pay attention to inside!
Monkey rolled his eyes, no one is here.

Next, it is necessary to cast layers and parts.Fortunately, the pharmacist's alchemy furnace has divisions, so as not to confuse the properties of the medicine.At this time, He Lingchuan instructed Lingguang to inject refined iron, red copper, frost silver, and smelt gold into molds respectively to correspond to the bones, muscles, tendons, and vitality of the bronze figure.

The monkey's hand is very steady, and He Lingchuan's luck is very fast, so there is no mistake.

The first layer of root bones was laid, and while the molten iron was not completely solidified, He Lingchuan cut his wrist and let out some blood, went through the process of identifying the master, and then dipped in the blood to write runes on the iron bones.

Each rune is smaller than a fly's head and written in the ancient fairy language.At this time, he has to thank Sun Fuling. Master Sun’s strict remedial lessons these days have made his foundation of the ancient fairy language more solid. In this moment of race against time, he was able to write a single symbol correctly——

If you make a mistake, the bronze figure will have to be retrained.

Before the root bones solidified, he finally engraved all the runes.

The following processes were carried out normally one by one, and when all the molten metal was completely solidified, he got a complete set of components for a bronze figure...

He Lingchuan put together this DIY bronze figure, installed the beast soul he just got into it as a brain, and stuffed a small piece of mysterious crystal into the back of it, and began to try to control it by chanting formulas.

It is said that the first communication is the most critical, and it depends on the first time whether you can have a tacit understanding in the future.

After he tried again and again, maybe it was too much trouble, the little bronze man finally turned his head to the side, looked at He Lingchuan, and then gave him a middle finger.

This is what the master wants it to do.It's just that He Lingchuan originally asked him to raise his index finger.

"It's done!" He Lingchuan slapped his hands. This kind of excitement can only be compared to the first time he received a toy seventeen or eighteen years ago.As for the small fallacy of putting the wrong finger up, it should be fine after many times of manipulation and debugging, or it may be because of cutting corners during refining, and there are two types missing.

Ling Guang watched eagerly, and just now he controlled the fire until it was sweating profusely: "How big can it get?"

"At least one foot tall, right?"

One person and one monkey looked at each other and said in unison: "Go, go out and try!"

The guards outside the tent were terrified when they heard:
What kind of tricks did this pair of ancestors want to play, didn't they play enough last night?

Bailiqing's deputy general, Fu Xin, led a dozen of his own soldiers all the way north, and walked the mountain road all day before arriving at Xinqiao Township.

Before entering the village, two men jumped out of the bushes on the side of the road.

Fu Xin was startled, drew his knife and looked, only to find that it was one of his own.

The other party said: "General Hong ordered us to wait here to meet General Baili."

Fu Xin tightened his hand holding the knife: "General Baili has died, the mine... only us come."

The two were shocked: "Other people, what about other people?"

Fu Xin shook his head.

The two people looked uncomfortable, Fu Xin said bitterly: "You followed Hong Chenglue, tell me, are there any officers and soldiers who intercepted the west?"

The two soldiers looked at each other without saying a word.

Fu Xin also knew the answer, gritted his teeth and said, "Lead the way."

The two also had to ask a routine question: "Is there any pursuers behind?"

"No, we have verified it several times!" Fu Xin's cheek muscles twitched, "Hurry up and lead the way!"

The two then led them into the forest and dived northeast.

"Isn't Hong Chenglue in Xinqiao Township?" Fu Xin was not polite anymore, and called General Hong by his real name.

"No, General Hong chose another location."

The more than a dozen people walked more and more remote, but there were always beast trails to follow, and Fu Xin also found many fresh horseshoe prints.

In this way, I walked for another four or five hours, and even climbed halfway up the mountain. The guide said, "We have arrived."

"Just here?"

Fu Xin looked up at the stockade above.

There are wooden fence walls, horse-repelling posts, watchtowers, and hanging doors, all of which are there, and they look like they have been built for some years, not like they were just built.

He walked in with the guide, and he didn't miss the traces of knives and axes everywhere, as well as the blood stains that hadn't been cleaned up.

There are [-] or [-] sets of row houses in the cottage, all connected together, with thick earth walls, small doors and small windows, and the windows are placed at a high position. It looks like a combination of watchtowers and houses.

Most importantly, there are traces of people living here for a long time.

"Where was this place originally?"

"The Den of Thieves," said the soldier leading the way, "The local name is Jinyin Mountain. We just took down the bandits' lair last night. General Hong said that we will stay here for the time being."

　It was mentioned in yesterday's text that He Lingchuan did not provide Wen Daolun with his birthday horoscope because he came from more than 100 years later and his real birth date did not match.

We are talking about the birthday more than 100 years later, not the horoscope of the birthday more than 100 years later, these are two completely different things.Modern people are already used to the AD calendar, and this thing is troublesome to explain, so I just made a fuss about it and didn't expand it.

Usually I don't interpret the content of the text, so as not to affect everyone's reading pleasure.But since some readers specifically mentioned it, let me tell you why the protagonist refuses to talk about it.

The horoscope of birthday corresponds to the year, month, day, and hour, and there are four pillars of stems and branches, and each pillar has two characters, a total of eight characters. One Jiazi in 60 years, that is, a reincarnation, repeated again and again.

There is nothing that cannot be said on the month and day.

The main thing is the year.

For example:
Suppose you were born in 2000 (the year of Gengchen) and you are 22 years old this year.You travel to 1750 and tell Qianlong that you were born in the year of Gengchen, then Qianlong understands that the year of Gengchen you mentioned refers to 1700.

Good guy, you were born 11 years earlier than Qianlong, you are already 50 years old but still have a 22-year-old baby face, then there are two possibilities:

One, you deceive the king.

Second, you are an immortal monster.

Either way, it won't end well.

He Lingchuan felt the same way about Wen Daolun.

Simply make a note, and everyone can take a look at it at will.
