Tang Ao galloped all the way, his speed was several times faster than an ordinary yellow buckskin horse in the mortal world. He could only hear the wind whistling past his ears, trees, and cities. He couldn't even see the afterimages clearly.
"Wow! Senior Brother Fuyang is really a scammer! They didn't tell me how far the northwest was, so I had to go down and ask them one by one. "
Walking out of a village called Changshun, Tang Ao could not help but mutter, "I already said I don't know. Is Yuqiu Village really far away?"
Without any hesitation, Tang Ao continued speeding northwest. After asking around, he finally found the specific location of Jade Hill Village.
"Phew! We're finally here! " Tang Ao looked at the tall fence in front of him. A huge sign hung directly above the gate, and three large words were written in ancient seal script: Jade Hill Village.
Although it was called a village, it was almost the size of a small town. The road was wide and solid, and there were many shops on both sides of the main street. There were people and cars on the road.
Tang Ao took a quick look around. The prosperity of Jade Hill Village had far exceeded Tang Ao's imagination. Even Little Sky could not help but poke his head out and look around curiously.
"Let's go get something to eat, then we can slowly inquire about the whereabouts of that refiner?" Tang Ao lowered his head and asked.
"Great! Great! It's my favorite! "Xiao Kong twisted and turned in Tang Ao's arms excitedly.
Seeing that there was a restaurant in front of him that was crowded with people, he walked in.
"Little Fool! Four meat dishes and five vegetables. The meat dishes have to be from beasts at the fifth tier of the Body Refining Realm and above. The same goes for the vegetables. "Tang Ao found a table and sat down. He called for the waiter to prepare the dishes.
When the waiter heard the name of the dish Tang Ao mentioned, his face lit up, and he eagerly moved in front of Tang Ao, "Sir, please wait for a moment, I'll go prepare it. What would you like to drink? “
"100 grams of Dragon Marrow and Tiger Bone Wine!" Tang Ao picked a table by the window and casually said.
"Alright! Please wait a moment! "The waiter ran off to prepare the dishes and wine.
"Wait!" Tang Ao took out a piece of gold worth about one tael, "I heard that you have a Master Refiner here, I want to inquire about him."
The waiter replied with a cheeky smile, "So you want to ask about Master Song Hetong. Ah, speaking of Master Song, that's really …"
It turned out that this village was originally a small, run-down village. All the young and strong who could go out had left, leaving only a few old, weak, women, and children in the village struggling at death's door. Song Hetong happened to pass by. She couldn't bear to see such a tragic scene, so she gave alms to these poor people.
Originally, Song Hetong just wanted to go on a sightseeing tour, comprehend the Heaven and Earth, and polish her artifact forging skills. It just so happened that this area was sheltered by mountains, surrounded by water, and beautiful scenery, so she decided to settle down.
As a Master Blacksmith, there would be people seeking him no matter where he went, not to mention that he had settled down here. Naturally, there would be an endless stream of visitors. With more people, the village gradually developed and prospered.
The waiter spoke with exultation, spittle flying everywhere, "… You really asked the right person. Master Song lives next door to my house. The old man likes peace and quiet, and doesn't want to be disturbed. He only sees a few people a day, and if he's in a bad mood, he won't see anyone, so you must be mentally prepared. "
"That I know! Thank you! "The waiter took the gold and went to work, satisfied.
"One person can form a town, this Song Hetong is really amazing!" Xiao Kong popped out a snake head from his pocket and said in surprise.
"That's right! Song Hetong is so warm-hearted, we might be able to ask him for help, "Tang Ao said casually, carefully tasting the tea that the waiter served.
The waiter quickly served the food, and Tang Ao and Xiao Kong, one man and one snake, wolfed down the food as if they had never eaten in their previous lives, sweeping away all the food on the table. Soon, the table was a mess, and the other customers who were eating on both sides were shocked.
"Let's go!" Tang Ao patted his stomach in satisfaction, threw two gold ingots worth ten taels to the waiter, and strode out.
Following the waiter's instructions, the two quickly found a large, workshop-like manor in the southeast corner of Jade Hill Village. From time to time, rhythmic hammering sounds could be heard.
"This should be the place." Tang Ao strode into the courtyard. More than a dozen young men were bare-chested. Their muscles were bouncing up and down along with the hammering of the sledgehammer. The light of the fire was reflected on their sweaty dark backs, making the courtyard even hotter.
"Please wait a moment! This is a place of forging, and unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter. "A sturdy middle-aged man blocked the two, not letting them go any further.
"Oh! We're here to see Master Song, Song Hetong. Please help me tell him. "Tang Ao didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of outsiders, so he cupped his fists and asked.
"Is that so? You've come at the right time. Master is here, please wait for a moment in the meeting hall. "The man made an inviting gesture.
Tang Ao didn't dare to act rashly, so he followed the man to the meeting hall. Stepping into the meeting hall, Tang Ao was stunned.
"So many people!"
Be it the chairs for guests or the hassock, they were all occupied. Some even lined up outside the meeting hall.
Some were leisurely, as if they didn't care about waiting in the hall, while others looked anxious, secretly complaining about Song Hetong's arrogance. Tang Ao calmed himself down, found a quiet place to sit down, and closed his eyes to rest.
"Master Song Hetong has arrived!" The man announced at the top of his voice. Then, an old man in a gray robe walked in from the back of the hall, shakily supported by his disciples. The old man looked so frail that he could not even stand a gust of wind. It was as if a slight push would break his bones and tendons.
"This is Master Craftsman Song Hetong?"
"He's just a rotten old man!"
"A rotten old man knows how to craft? I've waited for so long for nothing. "
"What a disappointment, a rotten old man!"
Song Hetong coughed a few times, his hands trembling as he held on to the armrest of the chair. "This old man is Song Hetong. I'm ill, if I've done anything impolite, please forgive me. "
"Cut the crap! Old Song, our East Domain Mo Family wants to craft a Spirit Treasure Divine Weapon. Tell me, how much do you want? "A young man dressed in luxurious clothes called out to Song Hetong, his face arrogant and unreasonable.
"Oh? If that's the case … "Song Hetong looked shocked, he turned to the man and the disciples behind him," Go throw the Mo Family people out, so they don't dirty the meeting hall. "
"Wha, what? You rotten old man, do you know who we are? You actually … let go, you barbarians, let go. " The young master of the Mo Family didn't say much before he was thrown out by the man. Even the guards behind him didn't have a chance to fight back.
"I can't tell, but these disciples' cultivation is quite high." Tang Ao's expression was normal, "This old man is really sincere, interesting."
