swordsman in the heavens

On both sides of the street, the architectural lines are simple and powerful, and the specifications are uniform.

The hot sunlight shines on the black tiles of the eaves, mixing the shadows of the eaves with the shadows of the big mulberry trees.

Yi Tianheng walked slowly under the shade of the trees.

Keep your back straight and look forward.

There were two children under the shade of the tree, with brows raised on their pink faces, two big round eyes staring at each other, and wooden swords in their hands.

The two of them started fighting without saying anything.

Seeing this, Yi Tianheng smiled lightly.

Qin people are good at martial arts, and even young children on the street are fierce warriors. The sword moves of these two children happen to be the Qin army's combat skills.

He knew that the Qin army's combat skills were actively passed down by the government. In this era, every family needs to have a strong man who joins the army at the age of twelve and goes to the battlefield at the age of sixteen, so their martial arts must be cultivated from an early age.

However, internal skills and mental methods will never be passed down to outsiders. There is a martial arts hall in the Yi family army. The merits accumulated by soldiers can be exchanged for various items, such as elixirs, equipment, and internal skills and mental methods that can be passed down to family members.

Looking at the Qin people who were so high-spirited even the youngest children on the road, Yi Tianheng couldn't help but sigh:

It is really completely different from the weak Song Dynasty. This is the bloody nature of the Chinese nation!

Gradually we walked to the east camp of the Yi Family Army.

This time I left the camp to arrange family affairs for Qin Bing.

There are very few Qin soldiers who are alone like Yi Tianheng. They all have parents, wives, children, and brothers. Before going to war, their superiors allowed them to leave the camp to arrange family matters.

As for Yi Tianheng, he didn't have any relatives, so he just returned to where he lived to visit.

After entering the military camp, he went straight to the martial arts hall.

Yanwu Hall is a towering monolithic wooden building, square and more than ten meters high, black and red in color, solemn and solemn.

At the door is a pair of Taotie statues, nearly three meters high, with shiny black bodies, strong and powerful, and when illuminated by the sun, their open fangs shine with a cold light.

Yi Tianheng approached and accidentally saw the eyes of the Taotie statue.

Strictly speaking, they have no eyes, only dark holes, but these two pairs of deep holes were like black holes that made Yi Tianheng's scalp numb.

It was as if the statue really had eyes and was looking at him.

He quickly looked away.

He was certain that the two Taotie statues were the work of a master sculptor, with the unparalleled will that that person had given to the statues.

"Boy, you are very good."

A thick voice reached Yi Tianheng's ears.

Yi Tian looked behind him and saw an old man in black robe walking over.

The old man said: "I have been here for twenty years, and you are the first person to discover the strangeness of these two statues."

Yi Tianheng lowered his head and gave a fist.

This old man has been in the martial arts hall for twenty years, so his status is extremely high.

"These two statues seem to be alive. I was a little scared when I looked at them."

"Haha, yes, they are indeed alive, but they are also dead."

"Old man, don't make fun of me. How can there be things that are both alive and dead in the world?"

"It's just that you don't know enough. This is the Mo family's machine beast. Have you heard of it?"

Yi Tian was moved.

"It seems that you have heard that these pair of gluttons were sent by the Mo family, and they are as good as those of fourth-grade warriors."

The old man slowly walked up the steps.

Yi Tianheng took a deep look at the Taotie statue again.

I wonder in my heart: Can I really fight against a fourth-grade warrior?

As for the Mohists.

This was the first time he heard it in this world.

In the past three years, he has focused on practicing martial arts, and he was in a place like a military camp where there was no information.

Not fully understanding the outside world.

Mohist machine beast?

Can something made from a machine resist a fourth-grade warrior?

He followed the old man with doubts and slowly walked up the three-meter-high steps.

The interior of the Yanwu Hall is very vast. If you look up from the middle, you can see the roof of the ninth floor. He has never been to a building above the second floor, so he doesn't know what the situation is like there.

When the old man walked in, the staff inside kept clasping fists and bowing their heads to salute him, and called him: "Mr. Wen!"

The old man ignored him and said to Yi Tianheng: "I can see that you have reached the threshold of becoming a high-ranking soldier. Why are you still just a soldier?"

"I didn't expect Mr. Wen to have such good eyesight and see through my cultivation level at once." Yi Tianheng was frightened and said, "I haven't made any achievements yet, so I wasn't promoted."

"Well, what do you plan to exchange for?"

"A standard long sword, a few bottles of elixirs for healing wounds and improving vitality and stopping bleeding, and a pair of protective armor."

"Bring me your merit card and let me see how much I can exchange for it."

Yi Tianheng took down a black iron plaque, which was the merit plaque mentioned by Mr. Wen.

When his predecessor came here in exchange for "Liuyun Sword Technique", his memory was inherited by him. He remembered that this merit card would be placed in a wooden box, and the wooden box would have numbers rotating to show merit points.

Sure enough, after Mr. Wen took the merit card, he placed it in a wooden box. The numbers on the surface of the box began to rotate, from 0 to 55.

Mr. Wen looked at Yi Tianheng strangely and said: "55 merit points, it is enough to exchange for a standard long sword, but you also want to exchange for elixirs and protective armor?"

Yi Tianheng said: "I know this. If it's not enough, I will pay for it with jewelry of the same price."

As he spoke, he reached to his waist, took off the hanging bag, and handed it to Mr. Wen.

He had already prepared it and took a pearl necklace from the jewelry box in the ring space.

Each pearl is about the size of a thumbnail, and there are twenty-eight pearls in a string. They are bright and round, and are connected in series with gold wire. For a landlocked country like Qin, they are very scarce. Rare things are expensive, so the price must be extremely high.

high.

When Mr. Wen saw it, his eyes lit up.

He took it out in front of everyone, and the bright pearl necklace immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the martial arts hall.

hiss!

Suddenly there was a cry of exclamation!

"There is such a precious pearl necklace. It's really hard to judge by appearance."

"This pearl necklace must be priceless. It can be exchanged for a lot of merit points. He gave it away."

...

"Shut up!"

Mr. Wen drank.

Yi Tianheng immediately felt a chilling aura envelope the entire martial arts hall, and was surprised: "This old man Wen must have extremely high cultivation, giving me the feeling of facing Senior Brother Chongyang."

The Yanwu Hall immediately became calm, and everyone inside knew that Mr. Wen could not be offended.

Mr. Wen's cold face became gentle again. He reached out and touched the pearl chain and said: "It's cold to hand and very comfortable. The particles are large and round. The color is warm and flawless. It's a good thing. Can I ask?

Why do you want to change it?"

Yi Tianheng said: "I am going to Tongcheng. There is a high possibility of participating in the war. I need to change my equipment to save my life."

Mr. Wen nodded and said: "I can make the decision. One pearl can be exchanged for two hundred merit points. What do you think?"

One is 200 points, and 28 is 5,600 points, which is enough to buy a lot of good things.

As for whether it's worth it, he has no idea. I believe this old man won't cheat him!

"In that case, follow me to the second floor and I'll find you some good things."

Mr. Wen handed the pearl necklace to the person next to him, took out Yi Tianheng's merit plaque, and went up to the second floor.

Yi Tianheng followed. This was his first time entering the second floor of the Yanwu Hall. There were believed to be many treasures on it.
