This Northern Song Dynasty is a bit weird

Chapter 87 Unlocking the Hidden Recipe
A banquet quickly shortened the relationship between Lu Sen and the Zhe family, making them more intimate.

At the same time, Lu Sen also caused a sensation in Gyeongju City.

At that time, there were many chefs and servants who came to Lu Sen to help. The warm and humid air in the system's home, the vegetables produced in the winter, and the extremely delicious fruits were all great talking points.

After these people go back, they will talk to everyone.

In addition, the chefs ate more or less the pulp... It's just the chef's taste of the dish, can it be called stealing?
And after eating the fruit, the state of sudden spiritual excitement spread rapidly under their dissemination, and finally it was spread mysteriously.

The next day, Lu Sen woke up and felt a little pain in his head. After drinking some honey water, he felt much better.

When he went downstairs, he saw Zhekexing, holding a red ying long spear, waiting at the door.

Before going to bed last night, Lu Sen reset the home system back to a safe state, and Zhekexing naturally couldn't get in.

"Zun Dao, come in!" Lu Sen shouted, waved his hand again, then went into the room and sat down, taking out a few fruits.

Zhe Kexing stretched out his hand outside the door, touched the door, and after confirming that there was nothing blocking it, then slowly walked into the yard with the Hongying gun in his arms.

There is still a red mark on his nose, which is a loss after thinking about it.

"Are you invited?" Lu Sen asked.

Zhekexing nodded with a smile.

"Then eat another fruit." Lu Sen put the largest pear in front of the child: "When you grow up, you are easy to starve."

Zhe Kexing looked at the pear in front of him and was a little moved, but he still shook his head and said, "Uncle, this is too precious, I can't have it."

After going back last night, the Zhe family had a discussion on the Xiancai Xianguo.

Zhe Jimin announced in the main hall on the spot that no one can tell Lu Sen about Xiancai and Xianguo in the future, let alone ask him and ask him for it, otherwise the family will serve.

Because after returning home, many women found that their complexion became much fairer, and the traces of wind and sand on their faces were lighter.

The men found that their scars were much lighter, and the scars that were very light had disappeared.

The old ailments were even relieved a bit.

Combined with the rumors I heard before, I knew that what they ate last night was a good thing that the dignitaries and nobles in the capital rarely ask for.

If it is military law, the family members of the Zhe family are actually not too afraid. After all, the entire Yongxing military road is in charge of the Zhe family. As long as they do not make mistakes in the big right and wrong, it is difficult for the military law to control them.

But family law is different.

As long as it is a family member, there is no escape.

Most of Zhe's family are sensible, but Zhe Jimin is afraid that a few people will chew their tongues in front of Lu Sen. After all, everyone really wants this kind of good thing.

And Zhe Jimin didn't want to have a rift with Lu Sen because of these few people.

Among relatives, it is also important to have a relationship with each other. Now Lu Sen has sent a big favor to the Zhe family, and the Zhe family has not returned anything to Lu Sen.

If you ask for more, this is not the way to get along with relatives.

"You can eat what your uncle gave you." Lu Sen smiled and said, "Isn't it because the elders gave it, I dare not say no."

After hesitating for a while, Zhe Kexing still picked up the pear, thanked him, and ate it one bite at a time.

He is the person with the best talent in martial arts in Zhejia. At the age of twelve, his strength is close to that of the 22-year-old Yang Wenguang.

This is not to say that Yang Wenguang is not good, but that Zhekexing is too good.

Good talent means that the upper limit is high. Zhe Kexing ate a lot of fruit pulp yesterday, and he knows that these things are very beneficial to his body and martial arts.

Seeing pears at this moment, it is difficult to resist the instinctive temptation of this thing on the body of the martial arts practitioner.

Zhe Kexing ate pears in small bites, and Lu Sen looked at him slowly.

This young man... is tall and burly, about the same as Lu Sen, and his face is extremely mature. No matter how you look at it, he is fifteen or sixteen years old. If he hadn't been told by the defendant, who would have thought that he was only 12 years old.

"Uncle, are you going to the government office later?"

"What are you going to do at the government office?" Lu Sen asked with a smile.

"Aren't you a military supervisor? At least you have to listen to your father's transfer of troops."

Lu Sen shook his head: "I don't know much about war, and I don't know much about people's livelihood. When I went there, I was sitting as a clay Buddha."

Zhe Ke shook his head vigorously: "It will never be the case. Uncle, you are the military supervisor, and you can control all the generals and marshals of the Yongxing Army Road."

"Let professional people do professional things, I won't join in the fun." Lu Sen said with a smile: "By the way, do you know there is an iron mine nearby?"

Lu Sen used to study at university in Xi'an. Gyeongju is not far from Xi'an. A roommate lives here, so he has come to play here.

He remembered that there was a small iron mine near Gyeongju, which was the trace of the era of large-scale steelmaking. He also participated once under the leadership of his classmates.

The fineness of the iron ore is very low, and even if it is fully excavated, not much iron will come out.

But for Lu Sen, it is also useful.

It's just that the environment at this time is completely different from his later generations. The surrounding is full of hills and ravines, forming a strange natural labyrinth. Without the guidance of the local people, it is very easy to get lost.

"There is indeed a mine." Zhekexing finished eating the fruit and said, "My father tried to have people dig for iron before, but later found that it was not cost-effective, and only half a load could be burned by picking six loads of ore. Iron."

This ratio is indeed bad...but Lu Sen still doesn't care.

"Don't worry so much, just show me." Lu Sen clapped his hands and stood up.

"That's okay." Zhe Kexing immediately stood up.

His mission is to protect Lu Sen's safety, which is a military order.

Besides, he personally has a good impression of Lu Sen, his uncle.

The two went out, then went to the camp outside Gyeongju City, borrowed two war horses, and galloped to the left of Gyeongju City.

Walking in the loess mountain tomb, Zhekexing soon became infected with loess, and his face was covered with a layer of yellow ash, but Lu Sen's white clothes were still immaculate.

The role of the 'skin' system, once again shows its role.

In addition to being surprised, Zhe Kexing also took it for granted.

Soon Zhekexing led Lu Sen to all the mountains.

Unlike other places where it is yellow, the ground here is firmer and more brown.

In the mound in front, after climbing up, you will see a large sunken pit with some wooden shelves left in it.

"Uncle, this is the iron mine we discovered."

Looking at the brownish soil, Lu Sen knew that the content of this open-pit iron ore was not high, but it didn't matter.

He took out a large number of wooden blocks from the system backpack, and then synthesized a long pickaxe, and then said to Zhe Kexing: "Trouble, help me dig some ore."

"Okay, uncle."

Zhe Kexing picked up the wooden pick and started to work... The fact that the wooden pick could knock out squares out of the ground surprised him, so I won't say much about it. The two of them were here, knocking from morning to noon, eating After a meal of raw vegetables and fruits, I continued to knock.

Forcibly, the pit was dug from five feet deep to nearly fifteen feet deep.

Of course, they also pre-cut a ramp ladder next to it, so as not to dig too deep and climb up.

In the evening, Lu Sen harvested a lot of low-quality iron ore blocks, and then the two of them rode back to Qingzhou City.

The next day, Lu Sen set up a furnace in the yard and melted the iron ore into pieces of iron ingots.

There is no way for Lu Sen to do this in Bianjing City...because there are no mines near Bianjingcheng.

With a lot of iron ingots, Lu Sen has a lot of things he can make.

For example, weapons, but he didn't rush to make them, but stored them first.

The next day, Lu Sen took Zhekexing and went to dig soil again.

It stands to reason that the imperial court does not allow private iron ore mines, but this kind of extremely low-quality mines are disgusting, and no one is willing to deal with them.

What's more, the Zhe family wouldn't be against Lu Sen on this matter.

After five days like this, Lu Sen harvested a lot of iron ingots.

As for that small mine, a huge hole had been dug by Lu Sen and Zhe Kexing, and the ore inside was almost completely dug.

After all, it's just a small heap of impurities, and it can't stand up to digging!
Melt all the ore into iron ingots, and then Lu Sen extracted part of the iron ingots to synthesize [-] iron knives.

Thanks to Yang Jinhua's 'ability bonus', it reduces the consumption of cold weapons and increases the basic attributes of cold weapons.

Therefore, as soon as this sword is made, it has 18 damage points, which is almost comparable to the original 'emerald longbow'.

When Lu Sen made a knife, he didn't hide from Zhekexing.

This teenager was watching Lu Sen conjure knives out of thin air, at least from his perspective.

He was swallowing the whole time.

As a young man with extraordinary talent and strong martial arts, Zhe Kexing, although naive on the surface, is actually very clear in his heart.

The superficial simplicity is more, just a kind of 'protection'.

He knows very well that his strength is actually very strong, and there is no rival among his peers, so it is inevitable that he is a little proud.

If you have your own skills, and if you practice for a few more years, the world can go anywhere.

However, these few days, I was first blocked by Uncle Lu's 'Dung House Technique', and I couldn't get in even with my nose red.

Then I saw the wooden pick given by Lu Sen before, and now I see Uncle Lu coming out in a big change, and all the pride of the young man was instantly wiped out.

No matter how powerful martial arts are, they are only at the level of mortals.

Compared with Uncle Lu Sen.

Looking at the iron knives on the ground, Lu Sen said: "Zun Dao, go back and bring someone to transport these iron knives away... By the way, give 33 of them to those friends of the Imperial City Division."

After all, they were the people who were ordered to protect themselves. They also got along well with Lu Sen along the way. They gave each of the Imperial City Division an iron saber, which was considered a treat.

Soon, Zhekexing brought people over, pulled the wheelbarrow, and transported all the iron knives away.

About half an hour later, two iron knives were placed on Zhe Jimin's desk.

In the surroundings, there are several broken weapons, spears, long swords, steel knives, mace and so on.

"It's hard to imagine that these black things, which look like things made by blacksmith apprentices to practice their hands, are so sharp." Zhe Jimin's smile was a little helpless: "It's okay to cut off ordinary swords, even thick ones. A mace and a hammer can be cut in half, which is outrageous."

Zhe Jizu smiled and said: "Guanghua is restrained, and the gods are self-obsessed. This is what I said."

"It's a pity that 33 of them were given to those imperial city chiefs." Zhe Jimin showed a regretful expression: "Thinking about it makes my heart ache, such a magical weapon may be encountered every few hundred years."

"Brother-in-law's stuff, he can give it to whoever he likes, we can't rob it." Zhe Jizu will come down: "With these weapons, we can arm those personal soldiers and make them into a strange army."

"I also have the same meaning. This matter is left to you. How to select people and ensure their loyalty, you should know how to do it."

Zhe Jizu nodded, he must do this well.

Both of them are quite aware that if there is a strong soldier with an all-conquering magic weapon hidden in the dark, then their tactics can have a lot of room for adjustment.

"By the way, according to the situation that the spy quietly sent back, Xixia seems to know about her brother-in-law's visit to Qingzhou, and then it seems to have quietly sent someone over to harm him." Zhe Jimin's expression seemed a little distressed. .

"Then let my brother-in-law stay in his 'dong mansion' and don't come out." Zhe Jizu said.

"Let him hide in the cave for a while, do you want him to hide forever?" Zhe Jimin shook his head and said, "It is our duty to protect him and the guards, so it is not good to let him hide, we should increase the protection. Strength, send a few more experts to watch him."

Generally speaking, the supervising army will not receive much attention from the enemy army.

But if it's a very magical supervisor, that's another story.

"Let Lao Yang and the others stay by my brother-in-law's side. With them, Xixia's spies should not dare to appear by my brother-in-law's side casually." Zhe Jizu thought for a while, and then said: "My brother-in-law first gave us green vegetables and fairy fruits, It has reduced our hidden diseases a lot, and now he has sent more than 200 magic weapons, how should we thank him? Otherwise, I would just take the things and not return the favors, and I would always feel panicked.”

"Do you think we have something comparable to the magic weapon sent by my brother-in-law?" Zhe Jimin said gloomily: "If you send money like this, you will definitely be disliked. My brother-in-law doesn't seem to be interested in things like medicinal herbs and strange stones. It's hard for us to give back to him."

Both of them pondered for a while, and both let out a long sigh.

This was the first time the two felt that it was extremely troublesome to return someone's favor.

After the meeting, Zhe Jizu clapped his hands heavily: "By the way, we can give the piece of meteorite iron we picked up last year to my brother-in-law. He is a practitioner and should be a little interested in this kind of thing."

"That's right!" Zhe Jimin clapped his hands heavily: "I almost forgot about this."

So the next day, Zhekexing came over early in the morning and brought a black stone.

"This is extraterrestrial meteorite?" Lu Sen asked, pointing to the black stone on the table.

Zhe Kexing replied: "Indeed, last year on the night of August [-]th in Gyeongju, there was a fire from the sky flying from the north, rumbled and crashed into the mountain. When we rushed over, we found a big pit at the bottom. Just lie down on this rock."

Meteorite... Lu Sen is not interested.

But it is difficult for him to refuse the kindness of others.

So I picked it up with one hand, wanting to see the quality of this thing, and guess the material.

As a result, a system prompt popped up as soon as the black thing was in his hand.

'Discover special substances, which are detected as advanced synthetic materials, and unlock three associated hidden formulas! '

Lu Sen: ? ? ?
He already knew about the hidden formula. After all, if he could marry Mu Guiying, he would be able to unlock a lot of hidden formulas.

But he never thought that getting a piece of extraterrestrial meteorite would also unlock the hidden formula.

Hidden recipe, what is it?
Technology, or occult?

Lu Sen clicked on the system recipe bar and began to look for three new recipes to see what they were.
