Golden Summoner

When he walked through the door, Xia Pingan had a big reaction.

That feeling, to him, was exactly the same as the feeling after successfully merging the world beads. This feeling was completely absent when he was drinking tea just now.

The sudden increase in divine power was empowering the body, increasing the body's abilities in all aspects. At the same time, there were also changes in the secret mandala. Xia Ping'an saw an additional sculpture in his secret mandala. That sculpture was Zhang Dai's brewing Xuelan. Tea time.

He could actually summon Zhang Dai.

Xia Ping'an was a little stunned.

Everything happened in just a moment...

Lights and shadows swirled in front of his eyes, and by the time Xia Pingan's step landed, he was already standing on the edge of a river. In front of the river, thousands of meters away, there was a thatched cottage, and next to it, there was a The scattered stones piled up by the river were covered with a layer of light mist. They looked calm, but made people feel frightened. They were integrated with the heaven and earth, and the murderous intent was surging.

Vaguely, Xia Pingan saw an old man fishing in the thatched cottage near the river.

Hua Xin naturally followed Xia Pingan and stepped out of the door.

Hua Xin's face was a little strange as she stepped out of the door, and she seemed a little confused. She looked here and then at Xia Pingan, frowned, and couldn't help but ask, "Just... what happened in that room just now?" What? Why did the upper limit of my divine power suddenly increase by a full one hundred and sixty points..."

Xia Pingan glanced at her and felt a little strange, "Senior Sister Hua, don't you remember what happened just now?"

"Yeah, as soon as I stepped through the door, I just remembered that I seemed to have met an old man in that room. He invited the two of us to drink tea. We seemed to have said something to him, and we had a very happy chat. Others I don’t remember things, it’s vague, like a dream..." Hua Xin struggled to recall, "By the way, I also heard that old man say that you can learn formations here, but I don’t remember the rest. !”

Could it be that that room has abilities similar to the mystery of the boundary between the world beads?

Looking at Hua Xin's appearance, it didn't look like he was pretending at all. Xia Pingan couldn't help but suddenly remembered some of the things in the palace that True Lord Styx had told him before he came in. He always felt that True Lord Styx had introduced a lot. Everything is vague and unclear. It seems that people who have experienced it can only have a general impression. The layout of the rooms in the shrine is not very clear. If some rooms are similar to the mystery of the other world to a certain extent, ability, then it makes sense.

"Senior Sister Hua, I'm the same as you. I can't remember what happened inside. My divine power has now increased by 160 points, and I also remember what the old man said about how you can learn formations here..." Xia Ping Installation said stupidly.

Hua Xin thought for a while, shook his head, exhaled, and felt a little relieved on his face, "Forget it, the room we just entered may have some abnormalities, but the two of us still got some benefits, so we should be considered to have passed the test. , I heard my master say before I came in that some of the rooms here may be like the world in the World Pearl, mysterious and unpredictable, and it may also affect memory. It seems to be true..."

"Well, that should be it!" Xia Ping'an quickly changed the subject and pointed at the stone mosses in front of him, "I think there's something weird there, and there's a person fishing, why don't we go over and ask!"

"good!"

The two of them ran towards the stone in the distance, and just a moment later, they came behind the fisherman.

Next to the fisherman were those stone dams, and the river in front of him was as green as green and flowing quietly. From time to time, fish as long as chopsticks jumped out of the water, looking full of life.

The old man fishing here is an old man wearing a raincoat. The old man has snow-white eyebrows and beard. He looks elegant and fishes very casually. He has the air of a hermit and a master. When he saw Xia Pingan and Hua Xin falling, the old man turned around. He turned around, glanced at the two of them, smiled, and took the initiative to speak, "After so many years, it's rare for someone to come here. Do you want to learn the formations? Those stone pillars in front are the eight formations. The secrets of the formations are all in it. Go by yourselves. The grass stove next to it is my humble home. I don’t have anything else. Don’t ask me. How much you can get is up to you. Enter the eight formations. One person, one world. You Even if the two of them go in together, they have to be separated. It depends on your destiny and you are destined. The killing method of the eight formations has not yet been activated. If you are not capable enough, you will not lose your life. You will be comatose and trapped inside for a few days. It’s just a day…”

Hua Xin was extremely arrogant. Hearing what the old man said, he didn't say a word. He just glanced at Xia Pingan and said, "I'll go take a look..." After saying this, Hua Xin flashed and rushed into the stone barrier. , the figure disappeared into the mist.

That feeling was very strange. Hua Xin was still in front of Xia Pingan just now, but as soon as she flew into the range of those stone mosses, the mist rolled and she disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"Haha, this girl is very energetic..." The old fishing man smiled and shook his head, then turned his head again and looked at his fishing rod.

Xia Pingan was not in a hurry to go in. He squinted and looked at the old man carefully, with many thoughts rolling in his head. After Hua Xin left, Xia Pingan straightened his clothes, bowed respectfully to the old man, and coughed lightly. He said, "Xia Ping'an, a disciple of later generations of Yan and Huang, has met his senior, but has he not yet asked his surname and name?"

When the old man heard Xia Pingan's words, he was slightly startled. His head that had been turned away turned around again, his eyes flashed, and he looked at Xia Pingan from head to toe, "What did you just say? Where are you from? "

"Junior Xia Ping'an is a descendant of Yan and Huang, a descendant of the Han Dynasty..."

The old man looked at Xia Pingan intently for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled, "I'm just a mountain villager, I won't mention my name, but you are an interesting kid. The secret of the eight formations is in the stone pile in front. , How many people come here just for this? You don’t explore those mysterious formations to find opportunities, but you come here to chat with me, an old fishing man. It’s interesting, it’s interesting. Could it be that you are trying to catch me, a village man? A few salted fish?"

Xia Pingan also laughed, "As soon as I saw Senior, I felt that I was destined to be with Senior. I want to chat with Senior. I want to talk. Is there anything interesting in those death formation stone piles? No one is interested in anything. I want to talk to Senior." Just chatting and I will be satisfied..."

"Go, go, go, don't interfere with my fishing!" The old man smiled and waved his hand, "If you want to chat with me, do me a favor and go to the woodshed of my thatched stove and make one for me. Things come out. I live alone in the mountains. I am often harassed by wolves. I don’t have any weapons on my hands. I am not good at wielding knives and swords. Sometimes self-protection is a problem. If you can help me, I would rather chat with you for a few words!"

"Senior, what do you want me to do?"

"I don't know, what do you think I can do to repel the wolves?" the old man asked.

"Okay, senior, wait a minute. I'm going to see if I can help senior and make him something to defend himself!" After Xia Pingan said that, he ran towards the old man's grass stove. The woodshed was right next to the grass stove. Next to the stove, there are a lot of wood, charcoal, wood piles, anvils, stoves, bellows, and some tools used by carpenters and blacksmiths piled in the woodshed. They are miscellaneous and occupy a small half of the yard. They are placed so casually. There seems to be nothing surprising about it.

Xia Ping'an took a look at the tools and wood in the woodshed and already had the answer in his mind. The next second, he picked up the tools, looked for the wood, and started working.

First use a saw to cut off the wood, then use an ax and a plane to square it, then use an ink fountain to draw lines, and then continue sawing, chiseling, and using various tools.

Slowly, a crossbow gradually took shape in Xia Pingan's hands, but this crossbow was different from ordinary crossbows. In the middle of the crossbow, there was a wooden box like a magazine inserted into the crossbow.

After the carpentry work was done, Xia Pingan lit the stove, lit the charcoal, pulled the bellows, found some discarded copper materials in the yard, and started smelting...

After the copper material was smelted, he poured the copper liquid into the sand mold he had prepared long ago, and several rough copper parts were ready.

The next step is to polish the copper parts and install them on the crossbow.

With Xia Pingan's physical strength, he didn't eat or drink, and worked like a machine. He worked for more than twenty hours before finally creating what he wanted.

That was a Zhuge Liannu. Before the advent of repeating firearms, this Zhuge Liannu was an invincible close-quarters weapon on the battlefield!

This Zhuge Liannu was the great killer weapon invented by Zhuge Liang.

After preparing Zhuge's serial crossbow, Xia Ping'an fired an arrow. The crossbow was strung up and fired in one go. Within twenty steps, the fired crossbow arrow could easily penetrate the bamboo in the bamboo forest next to the thatched cottage.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with Zhuge Liannu, Xia Pingan took Zhuge Liannu and came to the old fishing man again. He presented Zhuge Liannu with both hands, "Senior, do you think this self-defense weapon can still be used?"

The old fishing man held the Zhuge Liannu handed over by Xia Pingan, with a slightly complicated look in his eyes. He gently stroked Liannu's angry body with his hand, and sighed softly, "The people of the future generations of Yanhuang will still remember this crossbow." Making laws?"

Xia Ping'an said respectfully, "This repeating crossbow, like the eight formation diagrams, is a symbol of the civilization of our Chinese sages. It witnesses the ability of our Chinese sages to change the world. Ordinary people can't remember it, but we, the scholars, can't remember it. How can I forget, I made this crossbow myself when I was studying, but this is not the first time!"

"Oh, then how do you evaluate the person who made this repeating crossbow?" the old man asked.

"The man who made this repeating crossbow was a man who participated in nature's creation and studied heaven and man. He left a "Maqian Lecture" that has known the past thousands of years to future generations. He must also know about the evaluation. But since the senior asked, Then the junior will answer with a couplet outside the Wuhou Temple!" At this point, Xia Ping'an cleared his throat and said a couplet, "It said that King Qin did great things and had good sons and grandsons, he was loyal for three generations, and the historical writings still praised Chen Shuzi; he was an astonishing example of his teacher's example. , Qianqiu sheds tears, and the ink marks splash with General Yue."

After Xia Pingan finished speaking, the old fishing man's tears suddenly rolled down...
