A large pile of spoils of war was placed on the deck. Among them were sharp swords and sabers, strong bows and arrows, and exquisite and sturdy armor.
Hua Nongyue and Hua Nongying, along with a few accountants, kept counting the spoils of war. Then, they recorded it and handed it to Hong Yi, who was sitting on a chair on the deck.
"Huh? Twenty boxes of rockets? Each box has more than two hundred rockets. There are more than four thousand rockets in total. My goodness, Wei Taicang actually has so many rockets! Where did he get them from? "
After looking at the bill, Hong Yi passed it to Chan Yinsha beside him and took out a rocket from a box.
This rocket was as long as an ordinary arrow, but the arrowhead was not made of iron. Instead, it was covered with a thick layer of red phosphorus powder. Within the red phosphorus powder, there was a faint but strong smell of gunpowder.
Hong Yi knew a little about gunpowder. In the Cottage Notes, there were some places that mentioned the use and production of gunpowder. The surface of these rockets was covered with phosphorus powder. It would burn with a touch of friction. Inside, however, was gunpowder. After burning, when shot with a bow, the gunpowder inside would explode when it was soaked in phosphorus powder, creating a strong killing force.
Chi Zhuiyang also took one and tried rubbing it against a piece of steel on the box. Then, he shot it out. With a bang, it actually exploded at close range. Fortunately, his martial arts were strong and he was not hurt.
"This thing indeed needs special training to familiarize oneself with the characteristics of gunpowder. Only then can it unleash its power. Otherwise, I'm afraid the Da Qian would have really unified the world," Chi Zhuiyang sighed.
Hong Yi looked at the many dried powders in the box and reached out to touch them.
"I don't know how these dried powders were made, but they are much stronger than the ones we use for shooting arrows."
Bows and arrows were the strongest at sea. However, the air at sea was humid, and bows and arrows were easily wet. Therefore, dry powders were needed.
"These dried powders are special. Only Fang Xiandao has the formula," Hua Nongying said. "The Silver Merchants Association has always wanted to get their hands on it."
"Forget it then." Hong Yi walked forward and found a saber that looked exactly the same as the Shatter Saber. It had a sharkskin scabbard. When he pulled it out, the entire saber was shining with layers of cracks. There were two inscriptions on the body of the saber: "Giant Deer".
"Giant Deer Blade?" Chi Zhuiyang said, "This is one of the ten famous sabers forged by the Great Zhou Dynasty's Saber Master, Wei Yezi. It can cut gold and break jade."
"Not bad. One of the Ten Famed Swords, 'Prison Suppression', is in Hong Xi's hands. "Hong Yi thought to himself.
This' Giant Deer 'saber was the weapon that Wei Liancheng had left behind.
The second young master of the Wei Clan naturally had a good saber.
"Lélie! This Giant Deer Saber is for you! In addition, I will also give you a set of black gold kasaya! From tomorrow onwards, you will start cultivating the Thunder Saber Scripture! "Hong Yi ordered his men to pass the Giant Deer Saber and a black gold kasaya to Lélie.
"Many thanks, Young Master!"
Lélie was overjoyed.
"In addition, each of you will wear a set of Silver Shark Armor and a black gold kasaya. If you wear these two treasured clothes at the same time, even this fire arrow won't be able to harm you, and no treasured blade will be able to cut through it."
Hong Yi said to the experts beside him.
This time, he had obtained twenty-two black gold kasayas and forty sets of Silver Shark Armor. This was enough to equip all the experts under him with two layers of armor.
"Young Master, Wei Liancheng has been brought here."
At this time, Mu The Younger, Shen Tiezhu, Wen Feiyan, and Hills brought Wei Liancheng over.
This second young master of Governor Wei looked a bit like Wei Lei, but there was no shock on his face at all. His expression was calm and composed, showing that he was very shrewd.
This kind of attitude caused Hong Yi to be secretly moved. He knew that this second young master of the Wei Family was not simple.
"Young Master Hong, as long as you let me go, I will order a hundred death guards to swear a death oath to serve you. Furthermore, the commanders of the twenty-four Sky Blade Guards, Water Demon Camp, and Human Bear Guard will also swear a death oath to serve you."
Wei Liancheng said calmly when he saw Hong Yi.
"Young Master Wei's martial arts are not bad. You are already at the peak of the Xiantian Realm, right? However, the Thunder Saber Scripture is harmful to the body. What is the ultimate technique that has been passed down in your family? " Hong Yi stood up and took two steps forward. He stared at Wei Liancheng, not at all moved by his oath of loyalty.
Although the thirty-three Xiantian Realm experts of the Wei Family were a piece of juicy meat, and if he ate them, his strength would definitely increase, this was clearly impossible. The other party was loyal. Even if he subdued them, they would be like a barrel of gunpowder that could be kept by his side at any time.
Hong Yi's thoughts were as clear as crystal. How could he not understand that Wei Liancheng was just pretending to be courteous with him?
However, Hong Yi was very interested in the Wei Family. Although Lélie was the housekeeper of the Wei Family, he did not know many of the Wei Family's secrets.
The Wei Family was his mortal enemy. If he did not get to the bottom of this and grasp all their secrets, Hong Yi would definitely not be at ease. If the other party still had trump cards, then he would have something to rely on when dealing with them in the future.
As for the Wei Family's cultivation techniques, Hong Yi was also very interested.
Wei Liancheng looked at Hong Yi. Suddenly, his eyes flashed. "Our Wei Family originally did not believe in Wei. His surname is Gong Yang, and he is the descendant of the Yun Meng Saber Saint, Gong Yang Yu. The surname Wei was bestowed upon him by the previous Emperor."
"What?" Hong Yi was greatly shocked. The governor of a province for thirty years was actually Yun Meng's man. "This Wei Liancheng actually told me such an important secret? It seems like he really wants to stall for time. "
Thoughts flashing through his mind, Hong Yi smiled. "This is nothing much. In the history books, the previous dynasty's Emperor Wu once captured the prince of another country and made him a horse driver. Then, he slowly rose to become a great general. There are rumors, but it's not like there are no precedents. "
"Then does Young Master Hong know? Actually, my father had a nickname, Divine Hand Heavenly Saber. He was the previous Emperor's secret bodyguard, the captain of the Cosmos Dragon Guards. He already became Wu Sheng. " Wei Liancheng threw out one secret after another, as if secrets were worthless mud.
"Oh? Wei Taicang is actually a Martial Saint … How is this possible?! " Hong Yi was able to glean a lot of information from these words. He was secretly alarmed, but he didn't show it on his face.
"Since he is the descendant of Gong Yang Yu and the previous Emperor's secret bodyguard, it is not a big deal to be Wu Sheng. But why haven't I heard of the Cosmos Dragon Guards in the Jade Capital? "
"The Cosmos Dragon Guards protect the Emperor and the Imperial Tomb. They are the most mysterious bodyguards. Even the cabinet ministers, the Minister of War, and even the princes and princes do not know about them. However, I do know that if Young Master Hong tells some things about the Cosmos Dragon Guards to Prince Yu, then the merit …" Wei Liancheng looked at Hong Yi's expression and said leisurely.
"Prince Yu might not necessarily not know … I don't want to hear about the matters of the imperial family." Hong Yi sat down more comfortably. Although he really wanted to know what kind of experts were in the Cosmos Dragon Guards and how they were distributed, how could he show it in front of Wei Liancheng?
"Then Young Master Hong must want to know what martial technique my father cultivates? I also want to know what martial technique the crown prince cultivates? Why did the Supreme Path assassinate Taizong and Gaozong back then? "Wei Liancheng asked again.
"It really was the Supreme Path that assassinated Taizong and Gaozong, the two previous Emperors!" Hong Yi was shocked. Assassinating an emperor was too terrifying. Although Hong Yi was bold, he did not dare to imagine it in this golden age.
"Why?" Hong Yi asked, his voice a little hoarse.
"Because Taizong and Gaozong cultivated dao techniques, and their cultivation was extremely profound, reaching the level of ghostly immortal possession! Since ancient times, emperors could only cultivate martial arts, not dao. The Supreme Path is to monitor the world, and any emperor who has cultivated to the ghostly immortal realm must be killed!
"If an emperor controls the world and cultivates dao techniques to become a ghostly immortal, wouldn't that mean that every generation can be an emperor? How is that possible? But there is no power in the world that can monitor the imperial power. The Supreme Path is an exception. "Chan Yinsha sneered from the side.
"What martial technique does the crown prince cultivate? If that's the case, the crown prince probably also cultivates dao techniques, "Hong Yi asked.
"That's right, the crown prince cultivates the secret manual of the Dao of Creation, the Heavenly Book of Creation. My father was once bestowed a Dao of Creation martial art by the previous Emperor, "Wei Liancheng said.
"Dao of Creation? Dao of Creation martial art manuals still exist in this world? "Chan Yinsha stood up abruptly when he heard this.
"What is the Dao of Creation?" Hong Yi asked.
"There were many ancient daoist sects, such as the Supreme Path, the Divine Firmament Path, the Five Elements Path, and the Dark Yin Path. They were all powerful daoist sects. The Dao of Creation was a daoist sect that could truly contend with the Supreme Path and Daizen Temple. But a thousand years ago, it was destroyed by the sect leader of the Supreme Path. However, the sect leader of the Supreme Path was also killed! The people of the world have long forgotten about this daoist sect. The Heavenly Book of Creation is a supreme treasure that is on par with the Supreme Dao Scripture and the Past, Present, and Future Scripture. "Chan Yinsha stared at Wei Liancheng." Hurry up and hand over the Heavenly Book of Creation! Otherwise, I will immediately make you suffer the pain of having your soul refined! "
"How could I know the Heavenly Book of Creation? Even my father only learned a little of it. I'm afraid that these books, along with the three scrolls of the Daizen Temple's scriptures, are all in the royal treasury. " Wei Liancheng smiled bitterly. "Back when the Da Qian Dynasty was founded, we collected all the scriptures in the world. Martial cultivation scriptures, Dao scriptures, and all kinds of secret manuals are in the royal treasury. If Silver Shark is interested, he can use his divine abilities to retrieve the scriptures. It won't be a troublesome matter."
"Hehe!" Chan Yinsha gave a murderous smile and said, "Let's not talk about the cultivation of the divine soul. The Heavenly Book of Creation contains methods to measure the acupoints of the human body and cultivation methods. It is much more than the supreme books of the Peach God Sect, the Essence Primordial Temple, the Mysterious Sky Mansion, and the True Dipper Sect! Only the Supreme Path and Daizen Temple's scriptures can compare. "
"Alright! Wei Liancheng, don't say such tempting words. Since that's the case, hand over the Dao of Creation martial arts you've learned to me. "
Hong Yi raised his head.
"I don't know how." Wei Liancheng smiled slightly. "In the Wei Family, I'm not favored by my father. The one he dotes on the most is still Wei Lei. He even passed down the Shattering Blade and the Lightning Blade Scripture to him. When he comes of age, he'll also teach him the Dao of Creation martial arts. Young Master Hong, you're also a bastard son of the Hong Family. I'm sure you know what I've been through.
"Therefore, I didn't surrender this time and told Young Master Hong so many secrets because I didn't wholeheartedly want to go against Young Master Hong. Young Master Hong, you killed Wei Lei. Although I have a grudge against you for killing my younger brother, putting yourself in my shoes, if someone killed Hong Kang or Hong Xi, would Young Master Hong kill them? Would you hate them? "
Wei Liancheng said with a glib tongue, trying his best to explain that he had no grudge against Hong Yi.
"The grudge of killing my brother is absolutely irreconcilable. You're thinking that our grudge can't be resolved, that I won't take you in as my subordinate and spare your life. But now that you've said this, I've let my guard down. "
Hong Yi chuckled.
"That's right. Putting yourself in my shoes, I don't think Young Master Hong will kill me," Wei Liancheng said.
"Alright, write down the cultivation technique your Wei Family cultivates. You don't know the Dao of Creation martial arts, so I won't force you. But Saber Saint Gong Yangyu has a body tempering technique. Also, when you write, write down the strength of your Wei Family and any hidden experts. Also, write down some of the Crown Prince's secrets! I'll give you six hours. After writing it down, you'll help me with something. Then I'll truly trust you. "
Hong Yi had long since made up his mind.
"Bring me a pen and paper!"
"Gather those people on twenty boats!"
Following this, Hong Yi's soldiers freed up twenty boats and sailed far away. The people on the sharks, the Heavenly Blade Guards, the Hidden Death Guards, and the Man Bear Guards, were all squeezed onto the twenty boats. Then, they were surrounded by the sharks.
Six hours later, it was already afternoon.
Wei Liancheng wrote furiously for a full six hours. He wrote page after page of pictures, words, and a lot of information.
"Oh? True Wu Sheng Physique? Is this Wu Sheng's body tempering technique? How is the breathing technique the same as the Heavenly Snake Breath Technique? And the Spirit Turtle Breath Technique? How are they so similar? Combining them? "
Hong Yi looked at the martial arts Wei Liancheng had recorded. With a casual glance, he felt that the breathing technique was actually somewhat similar to the Heavenly Snake Breath Technique and the Spirit Turtle Breath Technique. It was like a hodgepodge.
"Back then, Gong Yangyu was a martial arts fanatic. In his previous life, he discussed martial arts with the Heavenly Snake King. He even exchanged views on martial arts with the sect master of the Taishang Sect, the Monogatari. This person even explored his acupoints. His understanding of martial arts was deep and unfathomable." Chan Yinsha whispered into Hong Yi's ear, "Those peerless Daoist experts also want to become human immortals and reach the Vacuum Shattering Realm. Legend has it that after passing the ninth level of the lightning tribulation, one can cultivate the Sun God and shatter the Vacuum Shattering Realm. When the two are combined, one can transcend and reach the Paramita Realm. It's a pity that Daoist experts can only reach the Wu Sheng Realm at most. They have no hope of becoming human immortals. Even the Monogatari cannot cultivate his body to become a human immortal. "
"The True Wu Sheng Body is my ancestor's most powerful body cultivation technique. His Lightning Saber Scripture uses self-mutilation to erupt with great power. However, my ancestor has used the Lightning Saber Scripture many times in his life, but his body has never been damaged. Even the Heavenly Snake King said that my ancestor is the strongest person below human immortals. This True Martial Indestructible Body was created by my ancestor after he discussed it with all the experts in the world, "Wei Liancheng said, a strange light flashing through his eyes.
"No wonder I've always been trying to merge the Heavenly Snake Breath Technique and the Spirit Turtle Breath Technique, but I've never succeeded. I didn't know that Gong Yangyu had already succeeded. My martial arts experience, when compared to his martial arts experience, is simply incomparable, "Hong Yi thought to himself.
"This is the information on my family and the crown prince." Wei Liancheng said to Hong Yi, "Young Master Hong, you should believe me now. What else do you want me to do? "
"Hm? I'll believe you after you do this! " Hong Yi smiled lightly. "I'll first cripple your martial arts, then you'll have all your people swear loyalty to me. Finally, I'll take you to Jade Capital to present a memorial to Wang Ye, accusing Wei Taicang of colluding with Yun Meng's Golden Wolf Army guard, Shin Yu-seng, of murdering a general of the Pacification Navy, and secretly hiding fire arrows. Aren't you dissatisfied with Wei Taicang's favoritism? Then I'll punish him in the name of righteousness. He secretly hid fire arrows and colluded with outsiders. It's impossible for him to escape the laws of the country. "
"You!" Wei Liancheng never expected that Hong Yi would think of such a sinister move.
"Hmph! You don't want to? I knew that you were a shrewd person. Why would I believe you? "Hong Yi laughed." You didn't do this! You still want to gain my trust! Left and right! Cripple him! "
