Chapter 123

Fang Xiao slipped out of the backyard of the two elders, and just stepped out the door of the second entrance, but was blocked by another person.The person blocking her was none other than Shangguan Xiao.

"Hi, my lord!" Fang Xiao's mouth twitched, this guy really came to ask for the blueprint, right?

"A Xiao, you know, the battle is tight now, we have to move faster, otherwise the barbarians will make a comeback, and we won't be able to hold back." Shangguan Xiao said with a serious face.

Fang Xiao nodded and said, "I will ask Xiao Xin to send the machine to Brother Tang and the others. At that time, with Yang Xin's help, it will definitely not be a problem for them to operate it."
"What I mean is that one steel giant is not enough at the moment. You see, the leftover materials from your last production, why not give them to me first, and I will find someone else to make them, so I won't make you work any more." Shangguan Xiao Clearing his throat, he said.

Fang Xiao gave a look of enlightenment, and said with a smile: "I didn't bring the blueprint with me, and I will send it to the prince later."
"There are also the materials you left over to make this steel giant. I can also find the materials accordingly. By the way, have your grandfather and master mentioned to you that I am going to adopt you as a righteous daughter. I Look, you don't have to wait until you return to Beijing, it will be a good auspicious day in three days, and then I will tell the news to the people in the village and let everyone celebrate together. What do you think?" Shangguan Xiao stared at Fang Xiao with a smile, Don't let go of any expression on her face.

"Grandpa and Master told me about this matter. Thanks to the prince, the three of us are fine. But now is an extraordinary period, and there are many things in the village, so there is no need to make a fuss, so that the barbarians can take advantage of it." At that time, it will be just the four of us, plus the younger brothers and sisters who are not on shifts, and we will have a meal together. When this war is over, we will hold a banquet again, and it will not be too late to celebrate." Fang Xiao is generous Said calmly, with an impeccable smile on his face, which made Shangguan Xiao unable to see the clue.

Shangguan Xiao's heart sank suddenly.This girl doesn't look very old, only seventeen or eighteen years old. After knowing that she is going to be adopted as a foster daughter, she can still be so calm. Either she is too scheming, or she doesn't take him as a prince at all. .These two possibilities made Shangguan Xiao feel uncomfortable.But now, I really need the drawings in her hand.Things like this can't be left outside, and a talent like her can't let her slip away from him. He has to grab her talent and her personality.If his eldest son hadn't married a wife yet, he would definitely decide to betroth her to his own son. Unfortunately, it was too late when he met Fang Xiao, so he could only accept her as his adopted daughter.

However, a righteous daughter and a righteous daughter cannot become her own daughter no matter what.I can only promise to lure her, and find a way to marry her to the royal family in the future. After entering the palace, the things in her mind can be guaranteed not to flow out.In addition, with her own father, the prince, she would not be sad in the future in the palace.Thinking of this, Shangguan Xiao has already made up his mind, no matter what, Fang Xiao cannot be allowed to marry outside.

Fang Xiao didn't know what was going on in Shangguan Xiao's mind, but he saw that Shangguan Xiao didn't speak for a long time, thinking that he disagreed with his opinion, so he said: "You should discuss this matter with Grandpa and Master, I will listen to them .”
Only then did Shangguan Xiao come to his senses, and quickly nodded, "I should discuss this matter with your elders. You can go and do your own thing. Are the two elders in the house or in the backyard now?"
Mentioning the two elders, Fang Xiao's face twitched, thinking that the two elders were still worrying about who could make her skin whiter and tenderer, so she didn't know whether Shangguan Xiao should go to them, rolled her eyes, and said, "My lord is still Go to the mountain with me to get the blueprint first, lest I turn around and forget about it. There are still some materials left, but they are a bit heavy, do you think I can put them for you?"

Shangguan Xiao's ears perked up, and he faintly heard the intermittent voices of the elders from inside, sometimes high and sometimes low, inaudible, but seeing Fang Xiao's attitude, he also understood that now is not the time to disturb their elders, so he was happy He nodded and said: "Okay, let's go get the drawings together. If there are not many materials left, just put them in my room first, and then I will find someone to move them, so you don't need to do it yourself." You are a girl, let your juniors do these menial tasks."
The corner of Fang Xiao’s mouth twitched. The oldest of the juniors staying in the stockade was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and the youngest was only four or five years old. Let them move those iron blocks. Forget it, so as not to hurt their hands and feet when they can, grandpa will definitely To scold her.

Embarking on another hidden road up the mountain, Shangguan Xiao's eyes flashed with surprise.There is actually a road here, but after so many circles in the village, he didn't find it. It seems that the village is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and there are many high-level people.The hidden technique of this road has obvious traces of formations, which reminded him of Tang Zhan.

His heart became even hotter, and he was determined not only to get Fang Xiao into his camp, but even Tang Zhan's young heroes would not let them escape from his control.He had to think about his attitude towards the people in the village.

Walking to the front of the hut, Fang Xiao stopped and said: "The prince wait here first, the yard is a little messy, it will be bad if you hurt the prince, I will go in and take out the blueprint for the prince."
"Wait, is there a trap here? It doesn't matter, I have also learned some tricks, you lead the way, I will follow your footsteps, and I won't make a wrong step." Shangguan Xiao was concerned about the situation in the yard. , very curious, unwilling to stay outside and wait.He must know how much the things in the yard are worth.

Fang Xiao tilted his head, smiled knowingly, and said, "Okay, take care, don't go wrong." Fang Xiao led the way lightly, because she was not tall, her steps were also striding It's not too big, but the advantage lies in its lightness and flexibility, which makes the tall prince walk with his hands and feet tied up, as if he is twisting a twist.Fang Xiao suppressed a smile, and pushed open the door of the yard. The messy piles of things inside blocked the prince's glance around.Fang Xiao suffocated so hard, she felt that her stomach was about to cramp, no, she had to take it easy.

In fact, the way to enter the yard is only scanned by infrared rays. With her leading the way, there is no need to walk like that at all. It's just that she hates the prince's strong attitude, so in order to punish him, she walks like this. The effect is that she is about to laugh Cramped.

Fang Xiao's face was flushed, and he entered the yard and skillfully bypassed the piles of messy things, pushed open the door, and took out a drawing that was full of oil stains.It was handed over to Shangguan Xiao.Shangguan Xiao looked at the things in the yard, but recognized almost none.But he knew about the pig iron, and the small pile of refined pig iron in front of him almost broke his eyes.There is not much refined iron, only about a hundred catties left.It's just that a hundred catties of refined iron is already very enviable.One must know that the total amount of fine iron produced in the entire Great Moon Dynasty is only about a hundred catties a year.And the quality of the fine iron piled here is obviously higher than that of the fine iron piled in the treasury.He couldn't help but reach out and touch the fine iron, it was smooth and cold, without any sign of rust.Thinking of such a tall steel giant, all made of this refined iron, his heart became hot.He raised his head and asked, "Where did you get all this fine iron?"
"I sneaked out to dig it." Fang Xiao replied very casually.

"Where is the iron mine?" Shangguan Xiao frowned.How come he has never heard of such a good quality iron ore.

"It's not far, it's in Mount Heitou where the barbarians are." Fang Xiao replied with a good temper.

Shangguan Xiao choked, it was not far away, but that was not the boundary of Dayue, no wonder this girl wanted to sneak over there.However, this girl wandered around the stockade blindly. Except for the ten days when she was building the steel giant, she didn’t see her. When did she go down the mountain? Time, even the time required to refine refined iron cannot be completed within ten days.So how did this girl steal the mine back in ten days? Could it be that what she stole was not the ore, but the refined iron refined by the barbarians.If the barbarians have such superb ironmaking skills, why do they still have those crude weapons?Shangguan Xiao's mind was tied up thinking about it, and she didn't expect Fang Xiao to have a Qiankun bag and her identity as a cultivator.

Fang Xiao rubbed his sore cheeks, and seeing Shangguan Xiao touching the stainless steel in a daze, he didn't know what he was thinking, so he said: "My lord, these are the leftover materials I used, not many, only one hundred Come on, would you like me to put it in your room for you?"

Shangguan Xiao came back to his senses, shook his head and said: "No, these fine irons can't be moved down the mountain, they should be kept with you for safety. There are so many people down the mountain, it's hard not to be seen. If the barbarians know that you stole their Jingtie, the stronghold will be breached without waiting for Tang Zhan and the others to come back to help." Shangguan Xiao decisively decided that the less people know about such a good thing, the better.In addition, Fang Xiao is protected by a formation here, which is much safer than his dilapidated house.

Fang Xiao didn't say much, just looked at Shangguan Xiao with his eyes, the meaning couldn't be more obvious, to see when Shangguan Xiao would leave.Shangguan Xiao smiled wryly, and said, "I only recognize the fine iron for the things you have here, can A Xiao introduce the rest to me."
The attitude is unprecedented humility.

Fang Xiao smiled and said: "Most of these are waste materials. Brother Tang and the others have all gone out. I haven't come to find someone to help clean up. After a few days, the yard can't be piled up, so I will Get your juniors to move them out and throw them away." That means, your uncle doesn't need to know these scrapped things.

Shangguan Xiao blushed, he was indeed in a hurry, when he saw Jing Tie, he couldn't calm down.It made Fang Xiao see the joke.He nodded quickly, "I won't bother you, just ask Ah Xiao to send me out. I will definitely study this blueprint carefully. At that time, I still need A Xiao's guidance."
"No problem." Fang Xiao agreed generously. "Go this way, be careful not to pierce your feet." Fang Xiao pointed to a thorny bramble lying on the ground.

Shangguan Xiao quickly raised his foot, that thing didn't look like something to be messed with, and he couldn't be hurt by it.Watching Shangguan Xiao go down the mountain twisting and twisting, Fang Xiao finally couldn't hold back, and laughed so hard that he pounded the table.Rubbing his sore cheeks, he went back to the small courtyard, waved his hand, and put the piles of materials placed according to the Five Elements Method into the Qiankun bag. The things that were originally placed in the courtyard showed their original appearance, and they were no longer in a mess. .Wanting to find out her details, no matter what, it is not something a mortal can do.When she sat back at the table again, she thought about what Mr. Liu and the others said, setting up a fake steel giant to stand in the village would not only prevent the barbarians from attacking again, but also make those people in the village more honest.The guy who fanned people's hearts was actually Li Yun and his wife.So, how did they communicate with the outsiders?It seems that getting a monitoring system is imperative.
