Are you addicted to fairy? Just give it a try!

The meal ended quickly, and Zhang Wei chatted happily with Xiao Yunshan and others. I also learned a lot of knowledge and stories from Si Junpeng and Jiang Shun that were not widely circulated in the world of immortality.

This benefited Zhang Wei a lot, and he couldn't help but sigh that this couple was worthy of being listed as one of the four essentials for cultivating immortals along with wealth, law, and land. Just two friends in the late stage of Qi refining made Zhang Wei lose a lot. detour.

After making an appointment to meet again in the future, Zhang Wei left Izumobo City and slowly sailed into the mist with his awning boat.

It was very peaceful during this period. Although I saw a few immortal cultivators on the road, there was no Jie cultivator blocking the way.

Of course, it is also very likely that it was Zhang Wei's late Qi-refining cultivation that showed up. The group of people ran faster after seeing Zhang Wei than when they came.

In this way, after another day, Zhang Wei finally returned to Yundu.

At this time, Zhang Da had arranged for people to clean the house, and even the furniture was arranged overnight with Zhang Wei's ability, so after Zhang Wei came back, he moved directly into his home in Yundu.

It's night, Zhang Wei's room.

"So this is weapon refining, I learned it."

Zhang Wei put down the weapon-refining manual and took a long breath after reading the preface and having a preliminary understanding of weapon-refining.

It is different from many novels I have read in my life. There is no such thing as inscribing runes on the magic weapon in this world. Weapon refining is weapon refining. The weapon refining master is only responsible for refining magic weapons. Burning runes is the responsibility of the spirit master.

Magical weapons that are specially inscribed with runes are called talisman tools, but the role of talisman tools is more auxiliary. Almost no cultivators use talisman tools in frontal battles.

On the one hand, it’s because it’s expensive.

Talisman tools need to be made by immortal cultivators who are proficient in weapon refining and talisman refining at the same time. The resources and energy spent are much higher than simply refining magic weapons.

On the other hand, it is because the runes burned into the magic weapon are too easily damaged.

As the saying goes, the more sophisticated something is, the easier it is to break. The runes on the talisman are like precision electronic components. A slight damage will affect the operation of the entire talisman, causing it to become a useless talisman.

When fighting, the magic weapon will also be damaged due to violent collisions. If a more sophisticated talisman is used to fight, the runes burned in the talisman may change after a collision.

Even if it is only broken a little, it is enough to affect the flow of spiritual power in the talisman. These mistakes are fatal dangers to the immortal cultivators who are fighting.

Therefore, unless it is a disposable item, immortal cultivators will honestly use the whiteboard magic weapon when fighting.

Even the simpler the operation and the less likely to break the magic weapon, the more popular it is with cultivators.

In short, the magic weapon used in fighting is the eight-character mantra.

Cheap, simple, sturdy and durable!

However, even though it is separated from the rune lineage, it does not mean that refining weapons can be made by simply smelting and purifying various spiritual materials.

By browsing the weapon refining handbooks, Zhang Wei found that if he really wanted to describe the weapon refining in this world, it would be the material science of the immortal world version.

Well, we entered one of the four major sinkholes at the beginning.

It's just that the materials science in the world of immortality not only includes inorganic materials such as metals, but also demon materials, spiritual plants, and spiritual trees from monsters and beasts can also be used to refine weapons.

You can even incorporate some divine wind, strange fire, spiritual water, spiritual energy and other spiritual objects into the magic weapon to add more magic to the magic weapon.

If it were simply to smelt various spiritual materials and force them together, the quality of the final magic weapon embryo would probably be very impressive.

Each magic weapon has strict requirements on the type, quality and material ratio of the spiritual materials. If any one of them goes wrong, the final magic weapon will be completely different from what you expected.

Therefore, the formula of each magic weapon is a secret that is not passed down by the weapon refiner. Unless there is an accident, it will not be spread at all.

Because behind this is not only the capital for the weapon refiner to settle down, but more likely the result of the blood and sweat of countless people in his ancestors.

And if there is no formula, we can only use a single material to refine the magic weapon to avoid accidents.

But in this way, the power of the magic weapon is very limited by the material, and it cannot even fully exert the power that the material itself should have.

For example, if you use a second-level spiritual material to refine a magic weapon, you will probably only get a first-level magic weapon in the end. This is a huge waste of spiritual materials, and the cost is even higher.

For example, the weapon refining handbook in Zhang Wei's hand at this time, although it describes various key points when refining the weapon, it does not contain the secret recipe of the foundation-building master. It only records two kinds of recipes that have been handed down from ancient times and can still be obtained stably. Just get the magic formula for the corresponding spiritual material.

The names of these two magic weapons are Qingzhi Sword and Xuanjia Shield.

The two are used for offense and defense. If you refine any one, you will become an official weapon refiner.

What shocked Zhang Wei even more was the formula content of these two magic weapons.

"Heat a large amount of pig iron with the fire method and melt it into a scalding hot liquid...Heat it repeatedly and hammer it with spiritual power a thousand times to remove impurities...In the end, you can get the spiritual material called the Thousand Forged Iron Essence. It is refined from a magic weapon. Main material.”

When Zhang Wei saw this, he closed the note with a snap. He pinched his eyebrows and complained: "Isn't this just the practice of steelmaking? Except that it is changed to using spiritual power instead of manual beating, and the number of beatings is a little more, the process is no different. Could it be because of using Can spiritual beating be more delicious?"

Then Zhang Wei opened the notebook again and looked at the remaining recipes.

"Using silver as silk and gold as knots... In addition to drawing talismans, gold and silver can also be used to refine weapons? But it seems to make sense. After all, silver and gold both have the function of transmitting spiritual power. Since they can be used to draw talismans, why can't they be used to draw talismans? Come to refine weapons?"

Seeing this, Zhang Wei finally understood why the shopkeeper Yun Shanglou said that if he wanted to buy the Diamond Wind Bow, he had to buy it with real gold and silver. Emotions are also very useful for the weapon refiner.

Silver and gold, as excellent conductive materials, cover the magic weapon like a big net. Then the cultivator can use this large net to conduct his spiritual power to every corner of the magic weapon, and then control the input of spiritual power to achieve precise control.

If you look at it this way...

"It feels like a remote control."

After reading the rest of the formula materials, Zhang Wei slowly closed the notebook, then with a complicated expression, he took out the plain knife that had always been with him from the mustard bag, and gently stroked the blade of the plain knife.

This simple sword was specially made by Zhang Wei for martial arts training. He used the knowledge of steelmaking in books in his mind, plus some special formulas, to guide the blacksmith at home.

On the day the sword was made, the blacksmith who made the long sword said that it was the best sword he had ever made in his life, and it was ranked among the best weapons in the world. In the future, there might be some bloody storm surrounding this knife.

Then... then Zhang Wei never saw the blacksmith again.

However, since then, the quality of the ironware operated by the Zhang family has improved a lot, and the business has improved a lot.

But today, after Zhang Wei saw the contents of the weapon refining handbook, he had to start to doubt. Since the smelting method of the Thousand Forged Iron Essence is similar to the Hundred Steel Smelting recorded in the book.

If he really uses these steel-smelting materials as raw materials to refine magic weapons, does that mean that the books on metal smelting in his mind and the high-strength steel or alloys smelted using the methods there can also be used for What about refining materials of higher quality or other types of magic weapons?

Isn't the formula problem that restricts him from being a weapon refiner half solved?

Zhang Wei's heart became more and more excited and he couldn't wait to give it a try.

But unfortunately, Thousand Forged Iron Essence can also be obtained by continuing to temper the simple sword. But the remaining materials include silver, which Zhang Wei currently does not have.

After all, his mustard seed bag only contained one hundred thousand taels of gold and some precious spiritual materials left by Master Luoxia. There is no high-end stuff like silver!

"Forget it, sleep, we have to report to the Imperial College tomorrow!" Zhang Wei lay down on the bed depressedly and covered himself with the quilt.

Early the next morning, Zhang Wei, who couldn't sleep all night, yawned and walked out of the room with his mind full of how to refine weapons.

It happened that Zhang Da came back with a basket at this time. When he saw Zhang Wei getting up, he immediately put the basket on the stone table in the middle of the yard and said, "Second Master, these are Yundu's specialty Yunduo steamed buns for breakfast."

Zhang Wei sat down, took out one and stuffed it into his mouth.

After passing through Izumobo City and his party, Zhang Wei knew that in fact, immortal cultivators are also human beings, and they still have fireworks in the world. Eating more than a dozen taels of spirit stones in one meal like that in Zuixian Tower is basically out of reach for most immortal cultivators.

In order to survive, immortal cultivators will also eat common food. They can also extract spiritual energy from these mundane foods, but it is not as easy and satisfying as eating spiritual food.

The steamed buns were slightly sweet and soft, making Zhang Wei feel like he was eating steamed buns made on a machine assembly line in his previous life. But it’s not bad if paired with pickles and rice porridge. For the country of Yun, which has an ancient background, it is worthy of the name Yunduo Steamed Buns.

"Hiring a cook when you have time will save you the trouble of running out to buy food every day." Zhang Wei said.

"I know Er Ye, I've been discussing with an old cook from the restaurant next door for the past two days to see if I can recruit him."

Zhang Wei nodded, "Well, don't worry about money. We can't bear to suffer anything. We don't have such mouths. The money I have earned over the years, Second Master, is enough for the two of us to live a prosperous life for a few years."

"By the way, Zhang Da, please sit down and have something to eat."

Zhang Wei pointed to the stool opposite and said.

"Second Master, I actually ate it on the way back." Zhang Da scratched his head and said with a smile.

"Okay then." Zhang Wei didn't force his request. After all, there are differences between masters and servants in this era, so he asked instead: "By the way, Zhang Da, do you know how to get to the Imperial College?"

Zhang Da immediately nodded and said: "Yes, I have made inquiries in the past two days. The Imperial College's academy is on a main road near the palace in Nancheng District! However... I heard that the Imperial College has not been peaceful these past two days."

Zhang Wei asked: "What's wrong?"

Zhang Da explained: "I heard that a large group of students from the Imperial College wrote a letter to the public, accusing the Yang family of ten crimes and asking Emperor Yun to kill Concubine Yang to bring peace to the world. As a result, Emperor Yun was furious. , they arrested all the troublemaking Imperial College students and kept them in the sky jail for two days without being released."

Good guy, Shu Qingjun was sitting next to you on the bus. These students from the Imperial College are really brave. Shouldn't it be said that he is indeed an energetic young man?

I really am not afraid of death.

Zhang Wei touched his chin and said, "He doesn't want to kill someone, does he?"

Although under normal circumstances, any emperor with a right mind would not kill Gongsheng from the Imperial College. But now the somewhat bewildered copy of Li Longji who loves Concubine Yang is obviously not in the order of sane emperors.

What if the old emperor is really crazy and would rather give up the world than make a beautiful woman smile?

Zhang Da said: "I heard that he had this idea, but he was persuaded by a group of ministers. But Emperor Yun was still very angry and said that he wanted to deprive these people of their honors."

"Because of this incident, Emperor Yun's original plan to personally visit you, the second master, when you are enrolled in the Imperial College was also cancelled. Second Master, are we still going to the Imperial College?"

Zhang Wei waved his hand and said: "Don't worry about him, we just need to live our own lives. Report what should be reported and go to school. Can the old emperor still arrest me, who came later and did nothing? Or do I have to meet the emperor to be recognized as a tribute student of the Imperial College?"

Zhang Da replied: "Yes!"

After eating and drinking, Zhang Wei got on the carriage prepared by Zhang Da and squeaked all the way to the Imperial College.

In just half an hour, Zhang Wei, who was resting in the carriage with his eyes closed, suddenly heard a shrill and sad speech.

"What a tyrant, what a tyrant!"

"They persecuted the pillars of our country for a woman who brought disaster to the country! Heaven is blind!"

"This Dayun Kingdom is doomed!"

Hearing those treasonous words outside, Zhang Wei knew that he had arrived at the gate of the Imperial College.

He lifted the curtain of the carriage, and as expected, as soon as he stepped out, he saw two wolf-like guards holding down a very embarrassed scholar.

Even though he was grinning at the rough actions of the guards, the scholar still shouted loudly in a voice that was almost distorted.

"Senior Hou! I, Zhao Chengliang, am here to accompany you!"

"A tyrant! A tyrant!"

"My fellow students, please don't stand by and watch! Today, the tyrant killed our loyal people. Tomorrow, the tyrant's butcher knife will be pointed at you!"

"Shut up!"

The escorting guards were impatient and slapped the scholar twice without any hesitation, knocking out one of his back teeth. The scholar's face swelled rapidly, becoming like a pig's head, and he was slapped unconscious.

After hearing nothing, the guard was satisfied and carried the scholar away.

Zhang Wei, who was standing next to him, witnessed the whole process.

"Hiss——"

Zhang Wei took a breath of cold air, not knowing whether he was amazed at the brutality of the guard's law enforcement or lamenting the scholar's head.

It's really iron!

After watching the stubborn senior leave, Zhang Wei looked around and found that like himself, there were many students at the gate of the Imperial College watching the tribute student who issued a warning to the world leave.

Judging from the flames in their eyes, they were also very upset at this time. I am afraid that if someone incites them again, these tribute students will take a bus to the gate of the palace to write a letter and spray the Golden Throne Hall like their predecessors did a few days ago.

If it was Zhang Wei who was still in school in his previous life, he might be one of them, and maybe he could become a leader to gain some reputation.

But unfortunately, Zhang Wei, who had seen a lot of filth in modern society before crossing over, and a lot of filth in the feudal era after crossing over, said that he was already a sad and shameful adult, and that passion had been thrown into the time and space tunnel of crossing over twenty years ago.

And after hearing and seeing so many things, Zhang Wei vaguely felt that something was wrong. In the past two days, so many scholars have started a group with a strong purpose, as if they had discussed it beforehand. It is hard not to feel that there is a big hand behind this.

As for these passionate tribute students, they are just chess pieces used by the manipulators. No matter how good the banner is, it cannot withstand the impure purpose of the departure.

So Zhang Wei, who noticed this, directly ordered Zhang Da.

"Go quickly! Don't stay with these people!"
