low-key is king

Chapter 564 Luban Lock

"Lu Xun, do you dare to compete with me in a trick?"

In front of his master, Ning Wenji naturally wouldn't back down, but hearing him yell out loud made many people curl their lips.

The competition Ning Wenji mentioned this time was not the competition between Lu Xun and Gou Qing on the outer court square, it was a real competition of mechanism skills.

And Lu Xun only has a five-level cultivation base, which means that his organ level is at most the fifth level.

You, Ning Wenji, a seventh-rank mechanism master, want to compete with a fifth-grade mechanism master in the technique of mechanism, you don't even want face, right?

"It's boring to compete with you, how about I compare with this Dean Fang?"

However, the next words from Lu Xun's mouth made everyone confused on the spot. The thought that Ning Wenji was bullying others disappeared in an instant.

This guy named Lu Xun is too arrogant, right?

Who is Kong Qifang? He is the dean of the Mechanism Institute, a majestic Immortal Grade Mechanism Master, and even a powerhouse of the Upper Five Realms, and can even be said to be the number one Mechanism Master of the entire Daxuan Dynasty.

You, Lu Xun, are just a kid in the lower five realms, and your trick skills are at the fifth rank at most, so you dare to boast that you want to compete with Kong Qifang, a fairy-rank trick master, in your trick skills?

Even Ouyang Shu, the dean of the Physician Academy, and Yu Chongxiao, the dean of the Military Academy, felt that Lu Xun had lost his mind, or that he was young and energetic and wanted to show off, which is why he was talking nonsense here.

Aren't you humiliating yourself?
But after thinking about it, even if Lu Xun is taking his own humiliation, after today, he will be the only one among the young disciples who can discuss the art of mechanism with the head of the mechanism academy.

Contempt appeared on the faces of everyone at the moment. They thought that this kid just wanted to sensationalize the public, and wanted to use this method to raise his reputation to a higher level.

Isn't your kid showing enough limelight today?Does it need to be so intensified?

"How do you want to compare?"

Just when everyone thought that Kong Qifang would not allow Lu Xun's "conspiracy" to succeed, he asked such a sentence from the mouth of the director of the institution, which made them all startled.

"If I lose, I will stop blocking the gate of Ningmen and let them go temporarily!"

Lu Xun stretched out his hand and pointed at the Ningmen Headquarters, and the words he said were a little weird, making the faces of Ning Wenji and the others darken in an instant.

In fact, Lu Xun was still at the fifth realm, he just took advantage of being able to fight across borders, if he really wanted to fight to the death, any one of the seven realm powerhouses from Ningmen could crush him.

Now Lu Xun said it as if they spared all their lives, this is a feeling Ning Wenji and the others have never experienced, but they can't say anything to refute, extremely depressed.

"What if Master Kong loses?"

Kong Xinyue next to her naturally didn't want to see Kong Qifang, but when she asked this question, everyone's expressions became extremely strange, especially the young mechanics of Ningmen over there.

Even Yu Chongxiao, who had been at loggerheads with Kong Qifang, shook his head slightly, wondering how such a thing could happen, Xinyue's question was a bit wild.

"Are you kidding, how could my master lose?"

Ning Wenji was the first to sneer, and he understood the aspirations of the geniuses in the institution.

A majestic celestial mechanism master, in terms of mechanism, can he lose to a kid in the lower five realms?
"There is always a contingency in everything!"

Lu Xun grinned, first said something casually, then turned his gaze to Kong Qifang, and said, "If I win, how about driving Ning Wenji out of the sect?"

Quiet!Eerily quiet!

After hearing what Lu Xun said about the bet, everyone felt that their brains were not enough. This was to put Ning Wenji to death. How much hatred did this have?

Although everyone didn't think Lu Xun could win at all, they all wanted to see Kong Qifang's choice at this time. As Lu Xun said, what if?
"I won't agree to this kind of condition, so let's do it, if you win, I won't care about your nonsense!"

Who knew that Kong Qifang shook his head slightly, and didn't know what he was thinking, but Lu Xun couldn't help curling his lips when he heard the words behind him.

"Principal Kong is not afraid, is he?"

Lu Xun sneered a little, and then said: "Your wishful thinking is really good, even if I don't compare, can you still make a move against me?"

Hearing Lu Xun's words, the five words "empty glove white wolf" popped up in everyone's minds.

Because what Lu Xun said was the truth, a master of the academy couldn't make a move on a new student.

What's more, there are two branch deans watching. If Kong Qifang really dares to do something, it will really break the rules of the college, and he may even be impeached by the college.

"Then let me take out a fairy mechanism..."

"make a deal!"

Kong Qifang also knew that what he said would not make this smart boy submit, so he changed the way he said it, and before he finished speaking, Lu Xun had already agreed.

"If Dean Kong loses, don't renege on it!"

Lu Xun knocked the bricks and nailed the feet, making everyone look at each other in dismay. Does this kid really think he can win?

In fact, everyone in the audience knew that Kong Qifang would take out an immortal mechanism as a bet. In fact, it was just for show. This immortal mechanism master would not lose.

At least that's what Kong Qifang thought in his heart. No matter what the bet he put up, it was impossible for Lu Xun to take it away anyway. Why not do it?

As for not agreeing to Lu Xun's first condition, it was not because Kong Qifang was afraid of losing, but because he didn't want to disappoint his disciple Ning Wenji.

No matter what the result is, as long as Kong Qifang bets Ning Wenji, there will definitely be some shadows in this disciple's heart, and he doesn't want to see such a result.

As for an immortal mechanism, Kong Qifang was just talking casually.

He came here today not to attract Lu Xun, but to solve all the troubles for his precious disciple.

Since Lu Xun took the initiative to present the opportunity to him, how could Kong Qifang not accept it?

"Lu Xun, don't say that this seat is taking advantage of you, how you want to compare, as long as it doesn't deviate from the scope of the agency, it's up to you to decide, how about it?"

At this moment, Kong Qifang seemed extremely magnanimous, but in the ears of the bystanders, they couldn't help curling their lips, wondering if you didn't take advantage of it enough?

"Then thank you Dean Kong!"

What Lu Xun was waiting for was Kong Qifang's words. Seeing that he had finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to touch his wrist, and a square like wooden square appeared in his palm out of thin air.

"It's a little thing I made when I had nothing to do!"

Lu Xun was talking, and then threw the wooden square directly to Kong Qifang, and then said: "As long as Dean Kong can dismantle all the parts perfectly before dawn, and don't damage any parts, it will be considered How do I lose?"

Hearing the gambling mode mentioned by Lu Xun, many people took a look at Ningmen's love. It seems that the two of them used this kind of competition method in the outer court square during the day, right?

At this time, everyone was looking at the wooden cube thrown to Kong Qifang by Lu Xun. It seemed to be about a few inches in size. From the outside, there was nothing special about it.

"what?"

However, when Kong Qifang just took over the wooden cube, his eyes lit up.

As an Immortal Mechanism Master, he could tell at a glance that this wooden square was different, and he could even see some subtleties that belonged to the way of mechanism.

"Does this thing have a name?"

Kong Qifang turned the wooden square in his hand a few times, then raised his head to look at the black-clothed boy, and actually asked the question, which made everyone's hearts flutter.

"I'll call it Luban Lock for the time being!"

Lu Xun recalled certain memories of the last life on Earth in Lu Xun's mind, but did not change Mu Fang's name, which made Kong Qifang nod slightly, and stopped asking further questions.

In fact, this is very different from the Luban lock on the earth, but the foundation is indeed because of the principle of the Luban lock.

Coupled with some mechanism skills of the senior brother, after being improved by Lu Xun, there is this special wooden square.

Strictly speaking, this small wooden cube has no offensive power, nor is it as useful as a flying wooden kite.

But in the process of assembling and disassembling, the inspiration to a mechanism engineer is unparalleled. This is why Kong Qifang knew that the mechanism was not simple as soon as he got started.

Under the gaze of everyone, Kong Qifang didn't offer any mechanism for Lu Xun to solve it, but went to the side and sat down, and started the research on the so-called Luban lock.

Such waiting was undoubtedly very boring, but everyone wanted to see a result, so no one left.

Including the two deans of the Physician Academy and the Military Academy, there is a look of expectation in their eyes.

At this moment, no one would think that Lu Xun could win, even though Kong Qifang over there seemed to be in some kind of contemplation, but he was an immortal mechanism master after all.

There is no secret about what was taken out of Lu Xun's body, so everyone thought that the wait this time would not be too long, but they did not expect that they waited for a whole night.

In the night sky, without the bright lights of the Ningmen Headquarters, this moment would be the last darkness before dawn, and also the darkest time of the day.

But at this moment, the hearts of those organ masters in Ningmen tightened.

They never thought that the Luban lock that Lu Xun took out actually made the dean of the institution study for a whole night.

And it seems that after a night of research, Kong Qifang still has no clue, his brows are getting tighter and tighter, his lips are moving slightly, it seems that he is chanting, and he doesn't know what he is chanting?
"No, it's not right, it's not right, what should it be?"

Kong Qifang was holding a square piece of wood in his hand. If someone was around him, he would hear the voice in his mouth, just a few words back and forth, but he couldn't make up his mind.
