When Adaptation Meets Original

A puzzled expression appeared on Mu Feng's face, and just as he was about to continue asking, he heard Jin Yiyi's ice-like voice, "Kids, don't interrupt."

Mu Feng pursed his mouth aggrieved, and finally did not ask any more questions.Anyway, whether it is Jun Chongmo or Ji Qing, in his heart he is the young man who gave him delicious food with a gentle smile.

Rong Xiumo said directly, "Congratulations." He already knew that Ji Qing and Ji Huaichu had a deep bond. If Ji Qing didn't say anything, he would not take the initiative to ask, but now Ji Qing is willing to face the past calmly because of Ji Huaichu, Ji Qing Admitted lover.Seeing the relief and relaxation on Ji Qing's face, Rong Xiumo was naturally happy for him.

It must be a happy thing to be able to let go of the knots in the past and the burden in my heart, especially because Ji Qing's lover led Ji Qing out of the confusion step by step.

Several people rested in the inn for a few days, waiting for the weapon refining competition to start.

Ji Qing took Ji Huaichu's finger, followed Mu Feng, and walked towards the place where the competition was held.

The place of the competition is set in the central square of Iron Halberd City, which was originally the largest trading market in Iron Halberd City. Later, with the improvement of Iron Halberd City's cultural background, in short, it is a forceful rise and a chaotic trading market. After being eliminated, shops for refining magical artifacts opened row after row all over Iron Halberd City.

But the trading market has been preserved, and every grand event is held here.

From a distance, I can see the iconic magic weapon in the trading market, a rough stone. It is said that it was left by the first city lord of Iron Halberd City. Everyone is a craftsman, and a craftsman must have the spirit of a craftsman, just like this stubborn stone, which was originally useless, but can be transformed into a unique existence through the spirit of perfectionism and pragmatism of the craftsman." So far The most common spring stone in the cultivation world is placed here, and each city lord will personally modify it to make it more and more perfect.

But his transformation is not to erase the actions of the previous city lord, but to follow the traces of the previous city lords, leaving their own traces on the stone. In some respects, the Yanggu Stone is the preservation of the history of Tieji City. The traces on the body are the carvings of history.

There were many refiners surrounded by the bustling crowd under the Huanggu Stone. There were too many people, Ji Qing couldn't see every refiner clearly, but the wonder in his heart never stopped.

Refiners who are rare in the cultivation world are like rotten cabbage in Tieji City. The number of them is outrageous. If it is not ordered by the city lord of Tieji City, they will not be received during the refining competition Cultivator, it is estimated that Iron Halberd City will be directly crushed.

Ji Qing didn't forget that when he entered Iron Halberd City with the wooden invitation card, the monks guarding outside looked at him with jealousy in their eyes.

If you can get in touch with so many craftsmen at once, as long as you hold on to one craftsman's thigh, will you worry about not having magic weapons in the future?It's just blatantly opening the back door.

Just as Jin Yiyi appeared at the door with a few people, two craftsmen, a man and a woman, came forward and respectfully asked Jin Yiyi's identity. , walked around for a while, and brought a few people to the front of a secret house.

Mu Feng followed the group of "bumps" who had never been here before, along the way.

The two people just now are the apprentices of the current city lord of Iron Ji City, and they are sent out every year to receive important guests, such as his master, a craftsman, representatives of several sects, etc., Mu Feng has been here a few years ago , but at that time he was still young and could not participate in the competition. Instead, he watched a fierce competition, which made him look forward to the Artifact Refining Competition very much.

I will see the city lord later, in Mu Feng's mouth, the city lord is a very benevolent grandfather, every time we meet, he will give Mu Feng delicious food, but Mu Feng has a embarrassed look on his face, after hesitating, he said, "I don't know. Why, every time the grandpa of the city owner is smiling and talking, he is willing to give me delicious cakes, but he was very afraid of him when he was a child, and he didn't want to get close, every time he approached me, he would retract into the arms of the master." Said, A few traces of blush rose on his face, and he was embarrassed by the embarrassing things he had done when he was a child. Seeing that no one spoke, he continued, "Maybe it was because I was young at that time and didn't want to meet strangers."

An incomprehensible look appeared on Ji Qing's face, and the three of them looked at each other, clearly understanding each other's meaning.

Mu Feng has lived in the distant sea since he was a child. The living environment is pure, his perception is keen, especially his hidden nature. This is why Mu Feng knows that Rong Xiumo is a demon cultivator, but he always regards him as a good friend.

He could see that there was something wrong with this city lord, but he didn't like it intuitively. It seemed that this city lord was not simple!At least not as harmless as it appears on the surface.

The male and female monks who went in to report came out of the house and respectfully invited Jin to come in.

The three of them restrained their expressions, and walked in with nothing unusual on their faces.

In the house, there is no Piao Miao of a cultivator, but it is a little more rough.The ground is paved with large blue stones, and the rockery is all made of rough stones. When you step on a small bridge made of half-cut wood from a thick log, you will see the legendary city lord.

Sure enough, it is kind-hearted, with snow-white hair, eyebrows, and beard.There were a few smile lines on his face, and his round face looked at the visitor with a smile, his eyes were loving, as if he was looking at his ignorant grandson.

Ji Qing's eyes met the eyes of the city lord inadvertently, and goose bumps all over his body suddenly appeared.It seems that in his decades of life, no one has ever looked at him with such eyes, no matter before crossing or after coming here, only in Jun Chongmo's memory, Zi Yi's eyes are biased towards love.

But it is much more sincere and softer than this city lord, and the unadulterated gentle and soft mother's love left Ji Qing with a deep memory.

"Ji Ye, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you are still the same."

Jin Yiyi dutifully exhaled the air-conditioning and nodded slightly as a greeting.

The old city owner seemed to know Jin Yiyi very well, and he was not angry.After saying hello, he turned his attention to Mu Feng.Mu Feng approached politely to say hello, called the city owner's grandfather, and returned to Jin Yiyi after being fully baptized by his loving eyes.

"Who are these?" The old city lord stared at Ji Qing and the other three, and asked suspiciously.

"Junior Ji Qing." The three of them stepped forward and introduced themselves one by one. Ji Qing glanced at Rong Xiumo vaguely, seeing that the city lord didn't pay much attention to him, so he was relieved. The thing works.

Knowing that the three of them are good friends of Mu Feng, this time he came to Tieji City just to see the Artifact Refining Competition, so the city lord turned his attention away and didn't pay too much attention to them.

This city lord is really powerful. If he hadn't known about him in advance and paid attention to his expression after he came in, Ji Qing would have been fooled by his acting skills.

But Ji Qing doesn't care, anyway, the two of them have no conflict of interest, and they won't have too much contact in the future. There are so many hypocrites in the world, can he tear off the masks of others one by one?

The old city lord exchanged greetings with Jin Yiyi, and only after the next guest arrived did he let a few people leave, followed the first male and female monks, and walked deep into the house.

The scenery along the way is rigid, all of which are old trees and dry stones that remain unchanged.

After a few people walked for a while, they were brought into a small courtyard with a plaque of the Light Armor Academy hanging at the entrance.

Five people were arranged in the small courtyard, and the two refiners saluted and left.

Seeing that the two of them had left, Mu Feng began to release his nature like a brook unsealed.

Mufeng is familiar with the way and shuttles around the Qingjia Academy. It turns out that every time he and Jin Yiyi come to participate in the refining competition, they are arranged to live here.

The Qingjia courtyard is close to the main courtyard. There is a bamboo forest in front of the gate, which is quiet and quiet, with a rare good view. A ribbon-like living spring surrounds the Qingjia courtyard, taking away a few traces of the irritating summer heat.

Ji Qing took Ji Huaichu out for a walk, and when he came back, he already understood the weight of Jin Yiyi in the old city lord's heart, although it may not necessarily be a good weight.

However, it is also understandable. After all, where is the name of Jin Yiyi? For the first time, the name of the Grand Master of Artifact Refining was not in Iron Halberd City, and the leader had been captured for several years in a row. Magnanimous, inconsiderate of younger generations, lost the bearing of Tieji City.

He could only accept Jin Yiyi's friendship with him with a smile, and kept a sigh of relief in his heart that if he wanted to surpass Jin Yiyi, he could only treat him with good food and drink.

Ji Qing had to admit that the old city lord's qi training skills were really good, and he was so looking forward to pulling Jin Yiyi down from the throne in his heart. On the surface, he was like a junior who was waiting to be spoiled, and greeted Jin Yiyi with care.

Ji Qing is not worried either, Jin Yiyi stopped participating in the competition a few years ago, what needs to be worried about is the wooden seal, but that kid... Not to mention his own talent in refining weapons, it is that he was dumped by Jin Yiyi since he was a child It would be a shame to try out all the teachings and fail to compete with the children of these mass-produced big families.

Today is the time for the refiner to sign up. Mu Feng still has the privilege of being Jin Yiyi's apprentice, and he doesn't need to show up in person to sign up successfully.

The next day, several people got up early, came to the trading market, and waited for the game to start.

Naturally, Jin Yiyi was invited to a higher position to entertain him, and Ji Qing and the others took advantage of his light to sit on the high platform and watch the game.

Mu Feng ran to the audience early, waiting to go on stage.

Half an hour later, representatives from all sects showed up on time, went up to greet Jin Yiyi, and then returned to their seats.

Seeing that everyone was here, the old city lord gave an order, and a nun appeared in the center of the wooden platform.

With a friendly smile on his face, he began to explain the rules of the game.

The competition lasted for three days. Most of the refiners were eliminated on the first day, ten refiners were left on the second day, and the top three were determined on the third day.

A round of competition is held every day, and the long-established master craftsman will come up with the questions, and the promotion will be decided according to the final results.

Different from the scoring in modern competitions, the way to determine the winner is very simple and rude. As long as you can defeat other refiners and persevere until the end, you can win the championship.

The magical weapons that a craftsman is good at refining are generally weapons. Of course, it does not mean that there are no other types of craftsmen, but the mainstream is still refining weapons, and the competition is also dominated by refining weapons. An offensive magic weapon, let them "kill each other", as long as they persist until the end, they will naturally be the winners.

In order to take care of those who are good at refining flying instruments, life-like instruments, etc., these refining masters will hold a competition for them in the field they are good at three days later, but it is not very important.

After all, most craftsmen can forge some other types of magic weapons. Although it is impossible to enter the master level, there will be no problems in normal use. The most important thing for monks is weapons. This is the reality of the current cultivation world.
