C92 Planning for the Future
The next day, the sun is shining again. If they hadn't witnessed that terrifying rainstorm with their own eyes, no one would have thought that a flood that could destroy the world would have erupted here a few hours ago.
The Wei Wu Guards searched for hundreds of miles along the direction of the flood, but they still couldn't find anything related to the Changkong Gang, so they had no choice but to withdraw.
Wang Nuhai, who had returned to the camp dejectedly, suddenly saw a mushroom shaped thing the size of a face appear on the empty sand. He couldn't help but curiously approach it. Who knew that the object would suddenly turn its head and almost hit his face? Wang Nuhai was so frightened that he quivered. He took a few steps back and immediately spat out a flying sword.
In the next moment, the Wei Wu soldiers felt their feet tremble violently. It was as if a huge monster had suddenly burst out of the ground. A group of people could not stand stably and fell down along the edge of the huge monster. Fortunately, they were agile. When the ground came into contact with the flying sword, they rose up and once again floated in the air.
When the Wuwei Guards saw that it was Lu Changkong's warship that had overturned them, they could not help but be dumbfounded. They did not expect that the four huge warships could avoid the disaster in an instant.
Wang Nuhai was the first to welcome them. Before he could speak, the Death Warrant Officer on Typhoon said in a strange tone, "Friend, you woke up quite early to catch the fish! I wonder if you have gained anything? "
Wang Nuhai heard that the Life Warrant Officer referred to them as "people who earned money from dead people in the flood, and immediately became furious. He pointed at the Life Warrant Officer's nose and cursed, Shut the f * ck up! If it wasn't for the good intentions of my general, who would come and save a heartless thing like you?"
"Save us?" He urged in a cold voice: "Bullshit, If he really had such good intentions, why didn't he remind us that there would be a flood here? "
Wang Nu Hai opposed with equal harshness. "My general had invited you to stay in the military camp long ago. It was your shitty gang leader who didn't dare to stay in the military camp. Who could blame him?"
"Those who insult the gang leader, die!"
The entire Changkong Gang shouted in unison. Their faces were cold, and their eyes were filled with killing intent. Their expressions were extremely solemn. The swords and sabers at their waists were unsheathed at the same time, surrounding dozens of Wuwei Guards. The atmosphere was cold to the extreme.
"Brother from the Changkong Gang, put away your weapons!" Lu Changkong hurried over.
Wang Ganning was half a step slower. "Do not act recklessly under the protection of the Wuwei Guards. "
Wang Ganning first cupped his hands and said, "How is Mr Lu?"
"General Lao is concerned. My broken ships can still go through some storms. " Lu Changkong smiled and said, "My brother did not do anything to offend your subordinate. Please forgive him. "
"No, no. My subordinates are mostly rough people. I think it was because my words offended your subordinate that there was some friction. Please forgive me, Mr Lu. " Wang Ganning politely said, "I will not disturb Mr Lu's rest. Goodbye. "
"Forgive me for not seeing you off!"
Lu Changkong understood that Wang Ganning invited him to stay in the military camp yesterday out of good intentions. It was because he was too cautious that he offended this "neighbor. "
For some reason, Wang Ganning deliberately did not remind Lu Changkong. The night rain was fierce, and he felt somewhat guilty.
Their expressions were more or less unnatural, and they exchanged pleasantries. After a while, they returned to their respective camps with their subordinates.
However, the friction between the soldiers on both sides officially began today.
First, during the morning routine exercise, the soldiers on both sides bumped into each other. The two teams separated and shouted their slogans loudly. The Changkong Gang's voice was slightly weaker due to the limitation of their cultivation base. Wang Han was so angry that he pushed out more than ten of the ITEM3 Star Cannons in front of the other party's mocking eyes. After the shock caused the faces of the Wei Wu Guards to change, he pushed the cannons back into the camp with a proud look on his face.
At noon, the two sides had a fierce fight at lunch again. However, not long after, Wei Wu threw his helmet and armor in front of the Changkong Gang. Wang Nuhai looked at the eight dishes and one soup each of the six men from the Changkong Gang. He then looked at himself, who was surrounded by twenty men and an iron pot. He looked at the dishes served by the Changkong Gang's meat and vegetables, then at the green vegetables and soup that he couldn't see the slightest bit of oil on his side. He looked at the girl who was like a butterfly as she shuttled back and forth to deliver the dishes to Changkong. He then looked at the old man with yellow teeth and a wrinkled face. Wang Nuhai felt that the food was getting more and more tasteless. When the fragrance of wine drifted out from the Changkong Gang's camp, the sound of Wu Wei swallowing his saliva echoed throughout the entire camp. Wang Anhai was so angry that he slammed his bowl on the table. He stopped eating and strode back to the camp.
In the afternoon, Wu Wei and Wei San were catching lice under the sun. The Changkong Gang brothers were gambling together. The real money made Wu Wei jealous. The unfairness in Wang Nuhai's heart became more and more serious. He wanted to organize the soldiers to sing a few military songs to strengthen his face. At first glance, he saw that the soldiers were either looking at other people gambling money or basking in the sun listlessly. He stomped his foot in anger. He hid back in the camp and went to sleep.
In the evening.
The Wuwei Guards still did not join in. Wang Han deliberately asked, "Brothers of the Wuwei Guards, have you eaten yet?"
"Yes! I ate well!"
Wang Han smiled and turned around. He gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, pretending to be a big tail maggot. Tell the kitchen to prepare food, and then cook some lamb and stew for me. Make the main ingredients and taste better. "
Not long after, Wang Nuhai saw his soldiers lying in a hidden cave, drooling as they smelled the fragrance. He then looked at Wang Han, who was opposite him. He had already taken off his shirt. He held his shirt and swung it around, fanning himself on the roasted lamb. Wang Haihai was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot. After a round of scolding, he drove the soldiers into the cave. However, he couldn't help but sniff twice.
Lu Changkong also saw Wang Han's actions. After dinner, of course he would teach him a lesson. Finally, he said earnestly, "Wang Han, we are both soldiers. Although it is a bit unpleasant, there is no need to vomit. Think about when our brothers were in the Royal Guardian in Great Ming. It wasn't that they were lacking. If someone were to do the same for them, it would be the same for them. Why don't you bring your saber and go out to kill people? "
Wang Han smiled foolishly and said, "Didn't we follow you, big brother?! Big brother, can we still let our brothers get to that extent? "
"You. . . " Lu Changkong was so angry that he rolled his eyes. "I'm telling you, the Wei Wu Guards are our neighbors now. Don't cause trouble everywhere!"
Bailian Sheng said. "Changkong is right. Wang Han needs to be more careful in the future. "
"Heheh. . . " He urged with a smile. "Changkong, you are really free. Your own child can't manage it. You still have the mood to care about other people's children? If you don't think about how to get money, not to mention ruling this planet, it won't be long before you become like the Wei Wei Wei. "
Lu Changkong smiled bitterly and said, "The main reason I brought everyone here tonight is to discuss this money-making method. Refining Evil Pills is considered one of the inputs. However, trading with people from the Evil Sect is slightly dangerous, so we need to be careful. "
" I don't agree with using the Evil Pill as the main business project of the Changkong Gang. " Hsiao Yuhan said, "There is only one evil path alchemist in the world. If there are too many pills, not only will the big tree attract the wind, but it will also be seen as a thorn in the side of the righteous path. The price of the pills is also not easy to define. If it is too high, too low, it will cause dissatisfaction among the evil sects. "
Lu Changkong nodded and said. "I have also considered this point. But to build a home in this desolate desert, one must have a large amount of wealth, manpower, and material resources. When necessary, one can only sell pills to earn money. "
Gu Laodao stood up and said: "Master, when you were at the Juxian Pier, you said that you wanted to open a restaurant and use dishes to replace pills. Who knows, maybe the restaurant will suddenly rise up in cultivation realm and earn a lot of money! "
Lu Changkong shook his head and said, "A restaurant is a new thing to the cultivation realm. When you were in the Xuanwu Chamber of Commerce, did you see a restaurant? It will take some time for a restaurant to turn the situation around. It's not the fastest way. "
"We can forge weapons!" Bailian Sheng said, "I have carefully investigated the mines here. Although the Ganges Sand is a desert, But there are dozens of minerals suitable for artifact forging. Only, these minerals all turned into sand. Using artificially refined materials, the amount of manpower and material resources consumed greatly surpasses the value of middle and low-grade magical artifacts! Thus, we must take the high-end route. "
Lu Changkong, who had some experience in artifact forging, said," It's not impossible to take the high-end route, but there are too few people in the world who can afford to buy high-grade magical equipment. It's very hard to see any results in a short period of time. I think it might be better to buy minerals. "
Bailian Sheng thought for a moment and said," If you buy ores, you have to increase the cost. If you use middle-grade and low-grade flying swords to compete with large refining sects like the Cangwu Sect, it is very easy to be squeezed to death by the other party in terms of price. Unless. . . Our magic treasures and flying swords can be better than them in terms of quality. However, if you want to use minerals of the same level. . . In order to refine a flying sword that is better than us, other than brilliant techniques. . . And add in an extremely rare metal. "
"Big Brother is referring to adding Sword Sands?" Lu Changkong frowned and said, "Although Sword Sands can improve the quality of flying swords, it is extremely rare. The Sword Sands that my master left for me are not even two or three taels. Where can I find such things after I use them up? "
"I advise you to give up on this idea!" He hurriedly waved his hand and said: " There was only one place in the world where Sword Sands were produced. It is still controlled by the Imperial Court. It is guarded by the Dragon Army, the elite troops of the Sovereign Master, unless you want to rob the Imperial Court's troops. "
Bailian Sheng sighed, "If you can find the deposit beast, forget it. . . Let's not talk about this. Let's think of another way. "
Fluttering Fluttering Fluttering suddenly opened his mouth and said: "There's still a place in this world that produces Sword Sands. Let's see if you dare to go there or not. "
"Where is it?" Lu Changkong urged him to go. Bailian Sheng asked at the same time with a mischievous smile. "It's on Sword Ancestor's famous sword star. How is it? Do you dare to do business with Sword Ancestor?"
He took a cold breath and said, "Forget it. That guy not only has a weird temper, but also has a temperamental mood. He also kills people. Once he turns hostile, we won't even have the chance to escape "
" I think he should try " Lu Changkong said, "Although Sword Ancestor is temperamental, he is not an inscrutable person. If we deal with him carefully, he should be fine. "
Lu Changkong asked again, "Brother just said what is a deposit beast?"
"A divine beast that can eat minerals and excrete metals. " Bailian Sheng said, "The metals discharged by a deposit beast also have some impurities. It needs to be re-refined before it can be used. Therefore, it has never been taken seriously by cultivators. Later on, because of the deposit beasts and cultivators snatching the minerals, it caused a large-scale slaughter by cultivators. It was said that it had been extinct hundreds of years ago. However, there were also rumors that. . . The Golden Stabilizing Beast had appeared in the Black Tortoise Galaxy. In the end, the rumors can't be trusted. "
Lu Changkong did not ask any more questions. He turned around and asked," Can you find Sword Ancestor's place? "
"Of course I can. " Fluttering smiled and said, "I'm just afraid that our Brother Lu won't dare to step into Sword Ancestor's door!"
Lu Changkong said with a smile, "What's there to be afraid of? As long as I can find the Sword Sand, even if it's the Yama Palace, I will still go and challenge it. We will leave tomorrow. "
Knowing that he could not stop Lu Changkong, he got up and said: "I will go with you. "
"Only the two of us can go. " Overflowing Waves added, "Sword Ancestor is naturally eccentric and does not like to interact with others. After being famous for hundreds of years, he only has three and a half friends and one confidant. Especially since he does not like to be disturbed in his life. If there are too many people going, I'm afraid that before you guys can speak, he will directly chase them away. "
He muttered, "His bad temper still has three and a half friends, what an oddity. But, will it really be dangerous for Changkong to go by himself? "
Fluttering Fluttering said full of confidence, "I can guarantee his safety. "
" How can you guarantee his safety? " Hsiao Yuhan was still worried. "If you don't believe me, forget it. I am not in the mood to explain it to you. " After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked back to her room, leaving behind a group of men with bitter smiles on their faces.
Sword Ancestor's Sword House was located on an inconspicuous satellite. If it wasn't for her leading the way, no one would have thought that Sword Ancestor, whose name shook the cultivation realm, would live in such a remote place.
The moment the Great Dragon Head landed, it was pressed down by the sword qi from all directions, forcing it to stay still. Sword Ancestor's voice came through the air, "Who intruded my house?"
"Stupid old man, I'm back!" The loud voice scared Lu Changkong half to death. He almost released the Dragon Evil Halberd to defend himself against the sword Qi that could strike him at any time.
What he didn't expect was that the sword Qi that was pressing down on the Great Dragon Head suddenly disappeared without a trace. Sword Ancestor said in surprise. "Little girl, you're back!"
The next moment, Lu Changkong saw what he didn't want to see the most in his life. Sword Ancestor flew over barefooted on his sword, scaring Lu Changkong so much that he almost went into the cabin.
Sword Ancestor's face changed when he saw Lu Changkong. "Lu Changkong, I didn't want to kill you, but you are the first person who saw me lose my composure, so you must die. "
Fluttering Fluttering Fluttering turned around and blocked Lu Changkong's path. He said. "Damned old man, if you dare to kill him. . . I'll leave immediately, never coming back for the rest of my life. You can spend the rest of your days with that Sword House! "
" This. . . "Sword Ancestor scratched his head and said," Lu Changkong, you are the only one who saw something you shouldn't have. You are still alive. "
Lu Changkong said seriously. "I did not see anything. "
"You're smart! Let's go!" Sword Ancestor snorted coldly. He pulled Fluttering Fluttering and walked in front of him. He didn't care whether Lu Changkong followed him or not. He just minded his own business and said, "Girl, did Lu Changkong bully you?"
"He. . . " Fluttering Fluttering deliberately pulled the end of the sentence, scaring Lu Changkong until he broke out in a cold sweat. He was afraid that she would say something out of the spur of the moment.
Fluttering Fluttering Fluttering turned her head around. She smiled and said: "He treats me very well. With your reputation as a damn old man, does he dare to treat me badly?"
"Hahahaha. . . " The overflowing flattery made Sword Ancestor extremely satisfied. He could not help but laugh and say, "At least he knows his place. Otherwise, I will skin him alive. "
Sword Ancestor turned his head and said, "Kid, come over here. Come into my Sword House and have a seat. "
In Lu Changkong's eyes, the so-called holy land of sword cultivators, the Sword House, was just a thatched house that could not be described as elegant, but was extremely clean.
Although Sword Ancestor was famous, he did not like to interact with people. Those who dared to pay him a visit would most likely die under his sword. This caused the merchants, messengers, and patrols of cultivation realm to not dare to approach the Sword House casually.
After cutting off all contact with the outside world, one could imagine how poor Sword Ancestor's life was.
