Blue Silver Grass Strategy

After understanding the other party's life story in detail, Ling Yi's scruples and unbearable feelings that did not exist in the first place disappeared openly.

Not to mention the three villages and the patrol team members that had disappeared before, the blood-red scene behind the fact that this man soared from a two-ring great soul master to a five-ring soul king in just two years was enough to make Ling Yi feel at ease conducting the experiment that he had only imagined in his mind.

……

Another ten days later, Ling Yi put on the "Ruyi Treasure Bag" hanging around his waist and the blue-gold bracelet inlaid with two gems, one large and one small, on his left wrist. He walked out of the nameless forest, looked at the sun in the sky, identified the direction, and walked towards the east.

At noon, on the official road, Ling Yi followed the flow of people towards the city ahead.

From a distance, he looked up at the three big characters on the city gate, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

Dragon Rising City

This is a border city located in the north of the [Xingluo Empire], less than two hundred miles away from the border between the two empires.

Like the previous "Senna City", "Longxing City" is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial royal family, but belongs to the territory of a vassal kingdom.

Ling Yi calmly glanced at the merchants passing by him and called up relevant information about this city in his mind.

Judging from the height of the city walls and the length extending on both sides, this "Longxing City" is much larger than "Senna City" and is almost the same as "Muzhi City", the capital of the [Shuimu Principality].

But when it comes to prosperity, "Muzhi City" is inferior to "Longxing City".

Suddenly, there was a commotion on the street ahead.

"Yang Xueli, don't go too far!"

A duck-like voice screamed as if someone was pinching the neck.

Chapter 167: Humans and animals are harmless

Twenty or thirty meters away, Ling Yi saw a heroic girl dressed in black tights, grabbing a man by the collar and lifting him in the air with one arm.

This scene was similar to the bloody fairy puppet show in the 8 o'clock prime time in his previous life, and Ling Yi couldn't help but twitch his mouth. He looked around, but couldn't find the legendary handsome male protagonist in white.

Ling Yi turned around and walked towards the street next to him.

When you are out, there are some things that are better to avoid.

Walking quickly a hundred meters away, Ling Yi saw a blacksmith shop emitting heat waves. He immediately stopped hesitating and strode towards it.

"Guest, what do you need?"

A yellow-faced young man who had just entered the door immediately came forward and greeted him, "Our store accepts orders for various weapons and armors below 500 forgings, and we also have some finished products for sale..."

Looking at the enthusiastic smiling face in front of him, Ling Yi returned a warm smile, shook his head, and said softly, "I'm looking for the owner to purchase some metal raw materials..."

Maybe it was because Ling Yi's smile was too contagious, the yellow-faced boy was a little dazed and couldn't hear the content of his words at the first time.

Fortunately, another strong man who had been staying behind and observing this side noticed the boy's daze at the first time. He immediately stepped forward, forced a smile on his rough face, and tried to make his voice soft, saying:

"Sir, I am the owner of this blacksmith shop, Zhu Tao, the senior blacksmith. I wonder what metal raw materials you would like to purchase?"

"Hello, Master Zhu~" Ling Yi nodded, and without hesitation, he stated his needs directly: "I want 120 kilograms of "iron essence", 10 kilograms of "pure silver", 10 kilograms of "pure copper", 3 kilograms of "pure gold", and...

If your store has "Cold Spring Water", I want some too, more than 30 liters..."

Hearing Ling Yi name out more than a dozen metals and the required amounts of each in one breath, the sturdy man named Zhu Tao was a little dumbfounded.

Apart from the first few, which were partly in stock in his blacksmith shop, many of the latter ones were only used by those above the rank of blacksmith. There were even two materials whose names he had never even heard of!

As for the "Cold Spring Water" mentioned at the end, it's a high-level quenching material that many blacksmiths can't use!

It’s still thirty liters. Even if he sold his blacksmith shop, he couldn’t even afford to buy ten liters of “Cold Spring Water”!

That's right, this "Cold Spring Water" is mostly produced in the north of Douluo Continent, and their "Longxing City" is located between the two empires and belongs to the central part of Douluo Continent. There is no place where "Cold Spring Water" is produced within thousands of miles.

If you want "Cold Spring Water", you either have to go to the north of the [Tiandou Empire] or go to the [Haagen-Dazs Kingdom] to buy it, and then bring it back in a storage soul guide. The cost of this round trip, as well as the fact that things are rare and expensive, means the price is not cheap!

After hearing the wry explanation from senior blacksmith Zhu Tao, Ling Yi remained calm and turned to ask about the location of the trade market in "Longxing City" and some precautions when entering it.

Afterwards, he did not rush to leave and ordered 500 hollow metal bullets, 20 kilograms of kerosene, and a box of phosphorus powder.

Two hours later, Ling Yi had dinner at the hotel diagonally opposite, went to the blacksmith shop to pay the balance, and took away five large bags of hollow metal bullets.

Of course, among the materials reported previously, Ling Yi also bought all those that Master Zhu had.

……

The next day, in the west of the city, at Longxing Hypermarket.

With the Golden Soul Coin paving the way, Ling Yi bought all kinds of materials he wanted from caravans from all over the world from the two empires.

There was no drama of driving up prices or buying up rare pieces. Ling Yi, who had learned some rules from Master Zhu in advance, completed his set goals in a low-key and smooth manner.

When walking out of the hypermarket, Ling Yi ran into the heroic girl who seemed a bit tough yesterday.

Ling Yi subconsciously wanted to stay away from this person who looked like the heroine of the "Longxing City" small theater. He immediately blended into the crowd without looking around, preparing to leave quietly.

However, some things are destined.

"Snapped!"

A slender and powerful white hand patted Ling Yi's shoulder.

At the same time, a clear and pleasant voice, but deliberately hoarse, rang in Ling Yi's ears: "Hey, handsome guy, where are you from? I haven't seen you in Longxing City——"

Ling Yi turned around and looked at the heroic girl who was only half a head shorter than him. He smiled harmlessly, nodded, and replied softly, "Yes, I just arrived at Longxing City yesterday. It's normal that the girl hasn't seen me before."

Looking at Ling Yi's smile, Yang Xueli admitted that she was a little moved.

As a commercial hub for people traveling from the south to the north, "Longxing City" has seen all kinds of people appear here, but Yang Xueli dares to say that no one can be as handsome and beautiful as the man in front of her.

The most important thing is that the person in front of her has an indescribable temperament that is incompatible with the countless people in Douluo Continent, which makes Yang Xueli, who is naturally intuitive, want to find out more.

"My name is Yang Xueli~"

While Yang Xueli told herself not to be a fangirl, she stared at Ling Yi's face without blinking, and introduced herself with a slight stutter: "I'm eighteen years old this year, my martial soul is "Long-handled Scythe", and I'm a level 32 strong attack soul master..."

Since they had already intersected, Ling Yi no longer avoided it. He raised his hand and pointed in the direction where the two were. There were people coming and going, and they were somewhat blocking the way.

He smiled and stretched out his hand to lead him forward, saying as he walked: "My name is Ling Yi, I am also eighteen years old this year, my martial soul is "Blue Silver Grass", and I am a level 32 healing soul master."

"Oh! What a coincidence, you are also eighteen years old--" Yang Xueli blurted out, and at the same time, she narrowed her big eyes and smiled.

However, as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she felt the urge to punch herself at what a terrible line.

"Yeah~" Ling Yi didn't take it seriously, with a warm smile on his face. He said with a smile: "It's quite a coincidence. We are both eighteen years old and both level thirty-two."

"By the way, are you a local of Longxing City? I see that many people here seem to know you—"

As he spoke, Ling Yi looked around and saw that many people were looking at the two of them walking together on the street.

"That's right!" Yang Xueli nodded, and then when Ling Yi wasn't paying attention, she turned around and glanced at the people around her with a vicious look, making them withdraw their gazes.

But he continued, "My family has a business in Longxing City, so I grew up and went to school here..."

"What about you? Where are you from? Are you alone or with your companions?" Yang Xueli asked successively.

"I'm from the [Shuimu Principality]. I used to work as a military doctor in the border troops of the [Tiandou Empire]. Due to some accidents, I came here alone..." Ling Yi told the truth. There was no secret that he couldn't tell anyone.

The two of them walked on the streets of "Longxing City" and talked about questions with each other until they reached the hotel where Ling Yi stayed, and then they said goodbye to each other.

For Yang Xueli, it was a very interesting thing to meet a peer whose appearance and temperament made her heart beat in the familiar and boring "Longxing City".

Ling Yi returned to the hotel room, looked at himself in the mirror, and shook his head helplessly.

Sometimes, people with ordinary looks will never know how lethal a person with the pinnacle of human appearance can be to the opposite sex.

but……

Ling Yi touched his chin, narrowed his eyes, and his thoughts raced:

"A branch of the Po Yi Clan, the person in charge of purchasing various herbal raw materials and selling finished medicines in Longxing City..."

'interesting. ’

The progress has finally caught up, tears~

Also, I didn't expect that the first person I met was not Gin (＾＿－)

Chapter 168 It makes sense

The night falls and the lanterns come on.

When Yang Xueli saw Ling Yi walking out of the blacksmith shop while wiping his sweat with a light gray cotton handkerchief in his hand, her big Caroline eyes widened.

"You can actually forge?! Gulp——"

Yang Xueli looked at Ling Yi's face in disbelief. His face was still a little red after he had just finished exercising, and his hair was wet with sweat and stuck to his cheeks and snow-white neck. She swallowed subconsciously.

"Ah~" Ling Yi put down the cotton handkerchief in his hand that was stained with a little carbon ash and metal powder, showed a sunny smile to Yang Xueli, and responded clearly: "I have been learning from the blacksmith master in the town since I was a child. At that time, I thought that if I couldn't make it on the road of a soul master, I would return to my hometown to be a blacksmith--"

"The town's blacksmith?"

Yang Xueli's snow-white and delicate face twitched, and she looked at him with a look of "Don't lie to me". She said in disbelief: "Just looking at the expression on Uncle Zhu's face just now, as if he was looking at a god, it doesn't look like you learned the forging skills from the blacksmith in the small town, right?"

"And~" Yang Xueli paused, looking back at the moment when she was hiding outside the blacksmith shop and secretly watching Ling Yi's forging process, the iron hammer flying and circling in a rhythmic manner. She raised her head, looked directly into Ling Yi's eyes, and asked:

"The technique you used when forging just now was very similar to the Haotian Sect's Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique, right?"

"It is indeed the 'Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique.'" Ling Yi nodded.

Yang Xueli was immediately anxious when she heard this, and a nervous look appeared on her pretty face: "Then...!"

Ling Yi didn't wait for Yang Xueli's next words to come out, and continued: "But he is not from [Haotian Sect]."

Yang Xueli_??

Seeing the girl's bewildered look, Ling Yi strolled with her on the street where the lights were just coming on, and slowly explained:

"The "Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique" is a continuous casting technique that fully unleashes the user's power and removes metal impurities."

"It's just that due to the different aptitudes of each person, very few people can learn all 9981 moves of the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique."

"Among us blacksmiths, anyone who has inherited some skills will know one or two moves. Even if they don't, they can still recognize it..."

At this point, Ling Yi turned around, looked at the girl who was listening silently, and said solemnly: "Perhaps, the best person who uses the "Chaos Cloak Hammer Method" on Douluo Continent is the legendary 'Haotian Douluo'.

Perhaps, the martial spirit that can best bring out the power of "Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique" on Douluo Continent is the "Clear Sky Hammer".

Perhaps, the force with the most members who have learned the "Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique" on Douluo Continent is not the [Blacksmith Association], but the [Haotian Sect].

But! The "Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique" is not the exclusive secret technique of the [Haotian Sect], but belongs to every blacksmith!

When it was created, it was not used for fighting, but to assist its master in forging metals and creating magical weapons that would be passed down from generation to generation..."

Looking at Ling Yi, whose tone was not intense but even calm and indifferent, Yang Xueli could clearly sense the powerful voice and strong self-confidence beneath his calmness.

It was as if what Ling Yi said was the truth of the world, and everything should be like this.

So, even though she was a member of the side branch of the [Po Yi Clan], and even though the [Po Yi Clan] was a subsidiary force of the [Hao Tian Sect], Yang Xueli still nodded her head at the first moment to express her recognition and approval.

She never considered whether Ling Yi was making up a story to lie to her.

Even though, before today, she was still proud of the support of the world's number one sect, the Haotian Sect.

Over the past decade, she, a little girl, has been able to become the leader among her peers in Longxing City, a commercial hub. In addition to her own talent and strength, as well as her loyalty and love of making friends, the [Poyi Clan] and [Haotian Sect] behind her also played a big role.

Soon forgetting about the ownership of the "Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique", Yang Xueli continued to excitedly grab Ling Yi and question him.

She is very interested in Ling Yi's past!

"Then, where did you learn the "Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique" from?" Yang Xueli blinked her big eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering up and down like a fan. "I don't believe that any blacksmith in a small town can teach you the complete "Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique". You also said that many blacksmiths only know one or two moves..."

Not to mention, he is a blacksmith from that small place of [Shuimu Principality].

Yang Xueli only thought about the latter words in her mind but did not say them out loud. After all, Ling Yi was also from that small place.

Ling Yi saw through Yang Xueli's psychological activities. The little girl's mind was too easy to guess. In his previous life, he could have deceived her in one night... cough!

At this time, the two walked into a restaurant. Ling Yi waved to the waiter for the menu. After asking the girl about her preferences, he ordered the food and then continued to tell the "story".

"I was born in a village in the [Principality of Mizuki]... I learned forging from four people...

The first one was Master Jiang from our town. He introduced me to the threshold of forging that year...

The second one is my fifth senior brother. At that time, I worshipped Mr. Jin, one of the "three great craftsmen" in our principality, as my teacher. The old man was old, so I followed my fifth senior brother to learn first...
