Taoist master wants to ascend

Developed!

With his head lowered and the blue light covering his eyes, Li Yuan managed not to scream.

The second level hammer has four effects!

Li Yuan was almost dazzled, and after a while he raised his head to look at Zhang Bi, who had a complicated and absent-minded look on his face:

"Old man, what are you doing?"

"Ah, no, it's nothing..."

Zhang Bi turned around and looked at Li Yuan standing with a hammer in his hand, his mind still surging.

"How did you choose this hammer?"

There was no difference in the styles of the forging hammers. Among the more than a hundred hammers, he chose his own at first glance, which was really beyond his expectation.

"You just had an eye for it. You just thought this one was suitable. After weighing it, you took advantage of it and chose it?"

Li Yuan didn't even blink, pretending to be surprised:

"Does this hammer really belong to you? What a coincidence?"

"Yeah, what a coincidence."

Zhang Ben shook his head and laughed: "Perhaps we are destined to be together? Among so many hammers, you can pick them at a glance. The fate is not shallow!"

"Since we are so close to each other, then..."

Li Yuan was so blessed that he put down the hammer and bowed:

"If you don't give up, I'm willing to learn this forging skill from you."

Li Yuan climbed up the pole with a joking tone. He didn't expect the old man to agree, but he didn't expect Zhang Ben to actually accept this worship.

Zhang Ben laughed and scolded: "You are a slippery boy, but if you want to become a disciple, you must have a table for the apprenticeship banquet. How can you be so careless?"

"Do you agree?"

Li Yuan was also a little surprised.

Judging from this great craftsman's hammer, the old man in front of him has probably the highest attainments in forging in the entire forging shop.

I don’t know how many people want to be a disciple of such a person, but they can’t. Are they ready to accept him?

The treatment of geniuses is really different.

"My father and I are so close to each other, what's the point of teaching you to use both hands?"

Lao Zhangtou smiled, he was quite satisfied with the boy in front of him:

"The old man is already this old. It would be a waste to bring his craftsmanship underground, wouldn't it?"

He has good talent and a flexible mind. He is naturally very happy to meet such a good talent in his old age.

"Thank you for always looking up to me!"

Li Yuan put away his smile, bowed solemnly, and said respectfully: "Disciple, I will go home and prepare. I will ask my brother and sister-in-law to come and leave a message tomorrow!"

Skills are not passed on lightly, and in the past few months, Li Yuan knew this deeply.

Selling yourself as an apprentice, three years as a handyman, two years as a helper, this is the minimum, and this is just an apprenticeship.

To truly become a master, you must not talk about it verbally. At least, your parents must come to the door to present the apprenticeship letter, the apprenticeship ceremony, and the apprenticeship banquet.

Zhang Bi didn't care much, but if it hadn't been for this, his status as a disciple would have been worse, and others would have questioned whether he was sincere in accepting disciples.

After thinking for a while, he nodded:

"Go ahead."

"yes!"

Li Yuan saluted, went out with the hammer, and hurried home.

He didn't want to let go of this hammer.

"Wait a minute, did Mr. Zhang say he wanted to give me something before?"

After leaving the door of the blacksmith's shop, Li Yuan calmed down when the wind blew. He was really dizzy from the impact of this great craftsman's hammer.

"Go home first and let the second brother prepare to become a disciple next time."

Li Yuan didn't feel tired at all with the hammer weighing more than ten kilograms. If he hadn't been walking on the street, he would have tried to control it now.

The second-level Hammer of the Master not only had four control effects, but each one was better than what he had obtained before.

However, he was not satisfied with the control conditions.

"A small amount of blacksmithing can never be achieved overnight, but as long as the weapon master is promoted, the problem will be solved."

Li Yuan is very flexible.

Blacksmithing may not be easier to learn than martial arts, and a small success cannot be achieved overnight, but there is a hammer in the warehouse that can control the "small success level blacksmithing method".

As long as he was promoted to Zhang Binglu, he could satisfy this seemingly harsh condition in an instant. Naturally, he didn't take it too seriously.

"Perfection. According to the records in the book, the so-called perfection, Dzogchen, refers to practicing a martial arts skill to an extremely profound level, but in essence, it should still be a great achievement?"

The year was just passing and there were very few pedestrians on the street. Li Yuan was immersed in thinking.

He wasn't so sure.

He had too little exposure to martial arts, but at least that was the case with cloak hammer and sickle skills. After attaining great success, there would be a breakthrough in blood energy.

Holding blood generates energy, which is internal energy.

"But, there should be something different about consummation, right?"

Li Yuan felt itchy.

After returning home, he found out that Li Yuan had entered the inner courtyard and was noticed by the old master of the forging house. Li Lin was even more excited than him and immediately ran to find someone to write a letter of apprenticeship.

Li Yuan took out ten taels of silver and handed it to his second sister-in-law.

"You kid, how did you get so much money?"

Wang Juan was startled.

"It's not like last night, I didn't have time to pay back the money to Qian Bao. Later I heard that he had lost all the IOUs, so I kept it myself."

Li Yuan had already thought of his words:

"Mr. Zhang is the most senior craftsman in the forging house. This apprenticeship banquet must not be too shabby. Sister-in-law, please don't refuse."

Wang Juan was not a hypocritical person and accepted the money immediately.

By the way, Li Yuan asked about Qin Xiong.

"Qin Xiong?"

Wang Juan thought about it and was not impressed:

"Are you talking about the thief from the old Qin family who used to be the parent of our family, right? He is not a very upright man, so stay away from him..."

Li Yuan nodded repeatedly, feeling relieved in his heart.

…

…

Apprenticeship is a very cumbersome matter. Even if Zhang Bi didn't care about it, the three members of the Li family were still busy for three days.

Zhang Bi is an old man from the Forging Shop, so it is no small matter for him to accept a disciple. The directors of each yard of the Forging Shop came, and Fatty Sun also came to give him a gift.

Among the three shopkeepers, Cao Yan did not come, but he also sent gifts, and the other two shopkeepers accompanied him throughout the whole process.

At the banquet, Qin Xiong, who had always been dark-faced, also came and gave gifts. Looking at Li Yuan accepting everyone's congratulations, he felt like he had swallowed a fly.

Niu Gui is envious.

"Everyone, it's getting late, it's time to go back!"

Zhang Bi yawned, and several big men in the forging room had already stood up to see off the guests.

"Mr. Zhang, take a rest early!"

"Congratulations……"

All the guests were a little drunk and wandered away.

"Wang Hu, please help clean up."

Zhang Bi yawned and waved again:

"Li Yuan, help me back to my room."

"You should rest early!"

Wang Hu laughed.

Li Yuan helped his master back to his room. The old man got sleepy easily, and he was really tired after drinking again.

"Close the door."

As soon as he returned to his room, Zhang Bi felt energetic again.

"What are you doing?"

Li Yuan closed the door.

"I chatted with the second shopkeeper at the banquet and learned some things."

Zhang Bi took a sip of tea:

"Starting from this year, the number of apprentices recruited in each academy of the Blacksmithing Shop has increased several times, including the inner courtyard. I'm afraid there will be more in the future..."

"Is the blacksmith shop going to expand?"

Li Yuan is not very interested. He is far more interested in martial arts training than other trivial matters.

"Expansion is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is related to the Valley of Divine Weapons."

Valley of Divine Weapons?

Li Yuan's heart trembled. He had also learned the first of the five secrets of this family, the Fighting Hammer in the Art of Soldiers.

"You should know something about the name of Divine Weapon Valley?"

Zhang Bi glanced at his disciple.

"The big sect in Zhelong Mansion has been inherited for hundreds of years and is very powerful. I heard that even the government has to avoid it..."

Li Yuanzhen asked.

"Shallow."

Zhang Bi put down his teacup:

"The Divine Weapon Valley has been inherited for more than a thousand years, and it is not that it is very powerful, but that in Zhelong Mansion, it is the sky, the sky in the true sense!"

"ah?"

Li Yuan didn't react: "What about the imperial court?"

"In the Zhelong Mansion, the imperial court cannot reach the Divine Weapon Valley."

Zhang Bi was very calm, as if this was something everyone knew:

"Zhelong Mansion, including the military commanders who govern more than ten counties, all come from Shenbing Valley!"

this? !

Li Yuan was stunned.

What kind of court would allow a sect to control the armies of all the cities in a government?

Is this still a sect?

Princes are not so arrogant!

"The actions in the shop in the past few years are related to the Valley of Divine Weapons."

Zhang Ben hammered his waist, stood up and walked a few steps before looking at Li Yuan:

"Next spring, the gate of Shenbing Valley will be opened. Anyone can enter regardless of their origin!"
