Taoist master wants to ascend

"The evening before yesterday, when the store was closing, Wang Er from Qian Street came in with a banknote, waved it, and repeated that he was going to die, ninety-five taels. Finally, he gave ninety-three taels!"

"How new is this? In the past hundreds of years in Gaoliu County, I have never heard of anyone being a banker, but Qiu has become more knowledgeable..."

Dressed in fine clothes, Qiu Da put away his confession and shook his head:

"This thief is too careful in his actions. Wang Er's brain was burned out by high fever when he was a child. No one can recognize him except his parents. The clues have been broken again."

"What a thief!"

Qin Xiong's face turned dark.

About ten days ago, after learning that Qian Bao had been robbed, he immediately sent people to keep an eye on the Tongda bank account. He also sent people to several shops in the inner and outer cities that could crack hundreds of taels of silver notes.

But he didn't expect to have such a skill.

Who would have thought that someone would pawn a banknote?

They lost seven taels for not doing anything, seven taels of silver, and a family of five could save enough to last for two years!

"Since the clues are broken and Qiu is incompetent, I will transfer those brothers."

Qiu Da put away his confession and smiled:

"My condolences, Brother Qin."

"..."

Qin Xiong's face twitched, and he had the intention of killing people. He calmly called the few gangsters waiting outside the door.

"Boss, the brothers went to inquire. Li Yuan spent all day in the forging room and didn't go out the day before yesterday. But Liang Ashui, no one has seen him since he returned to the city..."

"Li Yuan, Liang Ah Shui!"

Qin Xiong took a deep breath, and before leaving, he took a deep look at the door plaque of Jinyi Dangxing, and then walked away with a dark face.

"If you are fierce in appearance but weak in heart, if you don't change your bad habits, even if you cultivate your inner strength, you will still be a bad guy!"

Glancing at Qin Xiong's back, Qiu Da snorted and left the pawn shop.

"Captain Qiu."

A yamen servant dared to come quickly, with a slightly tense look on his face:

"Then Yu Zhen is here again. Now he is at the yamen gate, saying that he wants you to see him."

"Yu Zhen, the knife hunter? Was Nian Jiu still in the city that year?"

Qiu Da's face was slightly tense and he didn't dare to neglect:

"Walk!"

…

…

The night was slightly dark, and there was a faint sound of tinkling in the blacksmith's shop.

"Brother Li, I'm here!"

Wang Hu pushed a cart full of iron ingots and shouted before entering the yard.

when!

In the forging room, Li Yuan put down the hammer and greeted:

"Brother Wang, just leave it outside the door first."

"good!"

Wang Hu responded.

"Your forging process is not slow. In a few days, you will be able to try to forge weapons."

Most of the furnaces in the forging room were smoldering, except for Li Yuan who was burning in one place. Zhang Ben commented:

"The control of strength and heat is not sophisticated enough. In these days, in addition to hammering, you can also beat more pig iron. The disciples of the inner courtyard make iron for seven coins per thousand catties. It is not much, but it can also help the family..."

"yes!"

Li Yuan agreed and sent the old man back, then rubbed his hands and moved all the pig iron ingots outside the door into the forging room.

"Let's live together!"

Looking at more than a thousand kilograms of pig iron ingots in front of him, Li Yuan felt happy.

After walking around outside Yuanda Ticket Office that day, he left the inner city. He waited until two more days passed before sneaking out at a time when no one was around the evening before yesterday.

Finally, relying on a bunch of candied haws, Wang Er was lured to a pawn shop in the outer city to pawn the banknotes.

There are seven or eight pawnshops in the inner and outer cities of Gaoliu County, and the business is very diverse. They can pawn everything from rice, oil, salt, clothes and shoes, but he doesn't think there are any that can be used as banknotes.

"Although we have suffered some losses, the victory lies in stability. Promotion is the top priority. Don't care too much about the trivial matters."

Li Yuan was not reluctant to part with seven taels of silver and a bunch of candied haws. Although he felt a little sore at the time, he did not hesitate.

He took out the Liuhe boots from the gray stone platform and poured out the more than ten taels of silver inside, as well as the khaki gold.

The materials to advance Zhang Wengui to the second level are all available.

"This is almost all my belongings!"

After closing the door of the forging room, Li Yuan felt excited and aching in his heart under the bright red fire.

After this wave, all he has left is the few pearls, twenty taels of silver, and one tael of gold IOUs.

"You shouldn't faint like when you were encased, right?"

Li Yuan murmured in his heart, but did not stop. He arranged the materials neatly, away from the fire, and put his right palm close:

"Promotion, master of weapons!"

Buzz!

Even though he was well prepared, Li Yuan was still shocked by the loud noise that seemed to come from the depths of his soul, his eyes blackened, and his mind was buzzing.

In a daze, he felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss. He could see nothing and could not grasp anything. Only the unknown terrifying whispers filled his ears, which filled him with great terror.

puff!

Li Yuan stumbled and almost sat on the stove. He felt a splitting headache, as if something wanted to crawl out of his head.

"How can you ever do this?"

Li Yuan sat on the ground leaning against the wall, rubbing his temples with a tired look on his face. He calmed down for a while before closing his eyes.

Buzz~

In the dark void, Li Yuan stood on a gray stone platform that had doubled in size. He looked around and saw only the palm weapon emitting a faint light.

The surrounding darkness was like ink, terrifying.

"What is this place out there? Where do all those loud noises, colors, and heard murmurs come from?"

On the stone platform, Li Yuan glanced at the ink-filled void. The chill in his heart made him dare not look again. It seemed that there was some terrifying existence hidden in the darkness.

[Second level weapon master: Li Yuan]

[Number of weapons that can be controlled: 2]

On the palm urn surrounding the stone platform like a star curtain, two 'stars' lit up, one of which held a sickle, while the other was empty.

"Second level!"

After the pain subsided, Li Yuan began to sort out the extra memories in his mind.

"Promoting to the third level of Weapon Master requires a thousand catties of wrought iron, a hundred taels of silver, ten taels of gold, and one tael of red gold? That's a huge increase..."

Opening his eyes, Li Yuan's teeth were a little sore, and his body was even more sore.

"You can now control the Hammer of the Master Craftsman!"

Squeezing his sore wrist, Li Yuan inadvertently glanced at the Great Craftsman's Hammer placed in a corner, and couldn't help but be startled at this sight.

Two or three meters away, he actually saw a slight blue light emitting from the hammer's head.

"Is this a hidden benefit of advancing to the second level?"

Li Yuan's eyes lit up and he got up. He looked around the forging room and found that any forging hammer within two meters of him had a subtle light.

Beyond this distance, it cannot be seen.

"This is much more convenient."

Li Yuan vaguely felt that there might be other benefits after Zhang Wengui was promoted to the second level.

It’s just that I have a severe headache right now and I just want to sleep.

However, he still managed to tidy up the forge room. There was not much pig iron, but it disappeared out of thin air, which was a big trouble.

"about there?"

After tidying up, mainly moving the wrought iron he had hidden in the corner to the stove, Li Yuan picked up the master's hammer and returned to the middle courtyard.

…

That night, Li Yuan slept deeply. When he opened his eyes, it was already three o'clock in the morning outside. This was the first time he slept for so long since he entered the forging shop.

However, the headache and fatigue from last night were gone, and I became energetic again.

There were two hammers placed at the head of the bed. Li Yuan opened his eyes and eagerly grabbed the two hammers.

"The sickle is very good, but I can only control two weapons. If I want to control the hammer of the master craftsman, I must first control such a low-level forging hammer and promote the blacksmithing technique to the level of a minor..."

The Weapon Master had just been promoted to the second level, and Li Yuan was already thinking about the third level, but the weapons he controlled were too few and not enough for him.

"After mastering the Hammer of the Master, can I replace the unqualified forging hammer? The blessing of the sickle is much greater..."

Li Yuan murmured in his heart and chose to control the two sledgehammers at the same time.

"Control!"
