The Sacred Ding

This time with Shen Kun supporting Juquanling, there are dozens of young disciples such as Shen Xiu and Zhou Qingyun. They are young, and they were all cultivated in Huanglongyuan Dao Academy before 16-17 years old. In the middle and late stages of the Tongxuan Realm, they even stepped into the Spirit Realm. It is inevitable that there will be proud and arrogant standing on innumerable living beings, but after more than a month of hard work, they have matured a lot.

They knew at this time that since they are martial artists of Same Realm, their strength still has the difference between Heaven and Earth. Although Shen Xiu and Zhou Qingyun have stepped into Spirit Realm, they are still not those skilled. The opponent of the Profound Realm veteran. Even if they can win one-on-one, the old pawns have too rich experience in teaming, and they can still teach them rich experience and lessons in the unpredictable fierce battle.

Of course, Shen Xiu and Zhou Qingyun participated in the actual combat drills with the demon crocodile, and they grew extremely rapidly.

During this period, every two or three days, Chen Hai would dive into the bottom of the lake to fight the monster crocodile after regaining his true spirit power, but he did not intervene at all for the defense and alert in Juquan Ridge. They were all handed over to Wu Meng and Ge Tong to be responsible for military training.

This kind of life, even Su Ling feels scared enough. I don’t know when Wu Meng and Ge Tong’s security cordon went wrong, and the demon crocodile directly reacted to the stockade. That many ordinary clansman will inevitably suffer serious casualties.

In the end, when Zhou Jingyuan took the name of Chen Hai, and the spokesperson of Tu and Fan in Tongbei could no longer borrow medicine pill, the training was considered to be over, and Chen Hai personally dived into the bottom of the lake. , Drag the corpse of the demon crocodile nearly 30 metres to the lake.

Even during this period of time, this monster crocodile has been exhausted by Chen Hai and more than two hundred elite guards, riddled with scars, Chen Hai can kill the monster crocodile at the bottom of the lake, but Su Ling It’s hard to believe what I saw.

At the same time as the establishment of Spirit Realm’s post-cultivation base, does Chen Hai really want to surpass Wu Meng and Ge Tong so much?

Is this the real strength of Western Northern Domain’s first selection?

She waited for Chen Hai personally. Chen Hai went to the bottom of the lake and fought fiercely with the demon crocodile. She waited on the shore with her clothes and armor, knowing that Chen Hai did not use magic weapons, but only with that frost. The golden halberd fought fiercely for two days and two nights before beheading the demon crocodile.

How tenacious is the life force of the demon crocodile, everyone has a common vision, Chen Hai’s strength can last two days and two nights, is he still a human?

Taking Jiaosui Pill is such a miracle, Chen Hai’s physical strength can really match the Flood Dragon mention on equal terms?

Su Ling did not know that Chen Hai fought this monster crocodile for nearly 20 times in more than 50 days, that is, when he dived into the bottom of the lake for the nineteenth time, he had mastered the true meaning of countercurrent. , Even in the turbulent undercurrent of the lake, facing the ferocious demon crocodile, already has the advantage of crushing.

However, Zhou Jingyuan is eager to cry without tears. If Chen Hai were not for the Si Cheng of Tongbei Dacang at this time, he could borrow a lot of resources. Juquanling would have long been unable to survive bankruptcy. The extremely rare materials harvested from the crocodile carcass may not be able to make up for the consumption that lasted for nearly two months.

Juquanling owed a large amount of medicine pill to the Tu and Fan at this time, and also borrowed 600 extra halberds from Tongbei Dacang branch, two hundred tempered scale armors, and two troop carriers. It’s exhausted, and they still need to wipe out the account a little bit…

Chen Hai doesn’t care. The resources are developed, they need to be used; and only when they are used can they become intangible. strength.

In this battle, the two demon crocodiles that beheaded were killed, the materials that can be collected can at most make up for the consumption, and there are even debts, but apart from the two hundred guards, both personal and battle formation strength must be substantial. Span.

In terms of other resources, it is definitely worth it.

Slay the demon crocodile, and without the Demonic beast in Juquan Lake, it will completely open up the waterway connection with Tongbei Prefecture to facilitate the transportation of bulk materials.

At this time, the minerals, wood, tung oil, gum, medicine ingredients and other products in the Western Mountain Range near Juquanling and even Juquanling can be transported to Tongbei on a large scale, and can also be transported from the mountain. Import a lot of food, conventional ironware, porcelain, etc.

Once this large-scale exchange of materials is carried out, more ordinary people can be settled and multiplied in Juquanling and the mountains to the west.

After slaying the demon crocodile, in addition to opening secluded fishing ports and hunting fish and beasts, lake banks and river dikes can be built along the lake and the banks of many tributaries, and a lot of grain fields can be cultivated. At that time, tens of thousands of hungry people outside the mountain can be guided to Juquanling for resettlement. In the past, there were a large number of lakesides and river valley beaches around Juquan Lake that could not be reclaimed because the monster crocodile was a monster, let alone fishing in the lake.

And Juquanling wants to develop the resources of the western foot of Qintong Mountain on a larger scale, and it needs a lot of manpower support.

Like a large-scale mine, it needs three or four thousand young people to work. Now Juquanling has only three or four thousand people, including the old, weak, women and children. Where is that many young people? Strong labor available?

Many of the mountains in the upper reaches of the Tonghe River are rich in gold and iron ore vein areas, but these mountains have been divided by other clan forces one after another, and Chen Hai has no way to reach out and mine for mining materials.

However, over the centuries, the ore rocks in these deep mountains have been eroded by the years and weathered into finely divided gravel. Following the stream, there will eventually be a large amount of gold-iron ore with relatively high density. The water from Tong River flows into Juquan Lake, and it accumulates in the silt at the bottom of the lake where the terrain is tangled and complicated.

These lake mud are actually easier to collect placer materials; there are even many natural rare gold and iron deposits at the bottom of the lake, waiting for everyone in Juquanling to mine.

Although the resources are more abundant in the deep mountains and old forests at the western foot of Qintong Mountain, roads are not accessible, manpower is scarce, and many resources cannot be developed. However, Juquan Lake is a treasure house right under your nose.

After a simple transformation, a troop carrier turned into a sand mining ship, and soon a ship of gold-iron ore-rich lake mud ore was dug up, after several previous procedures The diafiltration is directly sent to the furnace.

Because the composition of the lake mud ore is too complex, it is much more difficult than ordinary iron and copper smelting. The furnace even needs to be smelted into a large flame-collecting talisman to greatly increase the flame temperature before the ore can be removed. Burn and melt away.

If only ordinary iron is produced, the cost will be too high, but it is precisely because the composition of the lake mud ore is too complicated, and the resulting iron is quenched.

Because the veins flowing through the upper stream of the Tonghe River are all fixed, although the composition of the lake mud ore is complex, it is very stable, and the composition of the gold quenched iron is also extremely stable.

Looking at a furnace of quenched gold iron material directly cast into shape, but repeated forging to make the internal composition evenly distributed, Zhou Jingyuan touched the unpolished but already-shaped quenched gold halberd, quenched gold spear and quenched The scales were all excited to shed tears.

Here, the cost of smelting gold-quenched iron is ten times higher than that of ordinary iron materials, but it is less than the price of gold-quenched iron obtained by sects and sects through infiltration. /4.

The rich ore mud accumulated at the bottom of Juquan Lake will not be used up in a hundred years. What a terrifying wealth is this?

At this time, Zhou Jingyuan was convinced that Chen Hai chose Juquanling after careful consideration, and he came from the mud and sand of the lake from the beginning–these two monster crocodiles, how can they be qualified to follow this pit? Valley full of lake mud and mineral sand mention on equal terms.

It’s just that he doesn’t know, how did Chen Hai know that this lake mud and ore is so precious?

Chen Hai will naturally not explain to others the formation principle of alluvial placer. This is not a profound knowledge in Earth. You can learn geography in middle and high school, but in Yanzhou, no one knows, or It is only a rare science of land exploration monopolized by a few clan clan.

Of course, Juquan Lake can be enriched with placer deposits. There must be a large number of gold-iron ore veins upstream. It is just the magic of nature that gathers gold-iron ore in Juquan Lake.

Zhou Jingyuan knows too well the significance of their ability to smelt quenched gold and iron on a large scale in Juquanling.

Compared with ordinary precision wrought iron, the performance of quenched gold iron has been greatly improved in all aspects.

Xuanxiu body protection spells or magic weapons, Spirit Armor, defensive power are not infinite, but ordinary iron arrows, the penetration is limited, you must shoot a hundred bows and crossbows in a row to form a depressive arrow rain. It poses a threat to the yellow-rank protection Spirit Armor and shield at close range.

The penetrating power of the hardened gold arrow made of hardened iron is seven or eight times that of the ordinary iron arrow; if the seal that can increase the penetrating power is engraved, the formidable power is stronger.

The iron arm bow made of fine forged iron can only shoot three-four hundred steps; and Chen Hai’s previous two gold-hardened iron arm bows made of hardened iron can shoot 1,500 steps. , The arrow has no decay.

If it is replaced with a large bed crossbow or cart crossbow, it will be even more powerful.

At the same time, the hardened golden halberd is a war soldier used to open up Spirit Realm and even the martial arts of the Ming Aperture Realm; and the hardened gold shield and scaled armor made of hardened iron are far from ordinary. Wrought iron armor pieces and iron shields can reach it.

It’s just that the output of quenched gold and iron is too sparse. Chen Hai cooperated with Li Xianghai to fight out Yulong Mountain and made the first effort, and then he was given a pair of quenched halberd and gold quenched scales; and even then, the gathering The two hundred elites in Quanling were unable to achieve a golden armor.

However, because of the vicious fight with the monster crocodile that lasted for nearly two months, more than 500 pairs of gold-hardened armors borrowed from the Dacang branch in Tongbei were damaged. It is no wonder that Zhou Jingyuan was in a hurry to hang himself.

Now it’s alright. Don’t worry about not having enough gold-hardened iron to repair these armors, and after a large amount of gold-hardened iron can be smelted, Juquanling will be able to create a mechanism that can truly charge on the battlefield. war chariot and other war weapons.

The car body made of fine-forged iron plates is extremely heavy and has poor defensive power. All of them are replaced with hardened gold iron. The body weight is reduced by more than half, and the protection power can be increased by five or six times.

At this time, the Juquanling foundry was mainly used to build armor for Tongbei Dacang, but the construction materials drawn by the Taiwei Mansion or the Xiyuan Army General Manager Mansion, fine wrought iron and black iron, black The precious gold and iron such as placer gold and red marrow copper are all separated and sent to Juquanling to be made into quenched gold iron by infiltration casting.

At this time, Juquanling can smelt hardened iron on a large scale, and fine forged iron is also that’s all. The Taiwei Mansion and the Xiyuan Army Commander Mansion drew black iron, black placer gold, red marrow copper, etc. The precious gold and iron can be accumulated a little bit, and when the time comes, it can cast armor piercing arrows with stronger formidable power and piercing power that makes Dao Pill powerhouses fearful.

The casting of armor piercing arrows is not at all technical content, but fist sized iron essence or black placer gold, mixed with other materials, are enough to make a yellow-rank high grade Spirit Sword However, they can only cast two or three armor piercing arrows. Which sect in Yanzhou is willing to cast armor piercing arrows on a large scale?

The Wolf Slashing Sword given by Chen Hai from Taiwei’s Mansion is a Profound Level low grade Xuanbing. The real black placer gold component of the black steel casting material used is enough to make a dozen armor piercing arrows. That’s it.

Juquanling monopolized the supply of soldiers and armor of the Xiyuan Army at this time, even if the Taiwei Mansion and the Xiyuan Army General Administration Mansion supply a small amount of rare gold and iron every year, but the accumulation of less and more, every year Can also cast a batch of armor piercing arrows.

Zhou Jingyuan calculated that the mountainside must be designated as a forbidden area, and all irrelevant persons are prohibited from entering or leaving.
