Chapter 63 Can you help me?
The next morning.
Zhou Heng came to the lobby from the restaurant room and found that there were no people here. It was not as lively as usual when the third list was updated.
However, this was not the first time this happened, and he was not surprised.
"What's going on?" Zhou Heng looked at Yu He who was arranging tables and chairs in the lobby and asked, "The third list has been delayed?"
"Well, the update has been postponed." Yu He nodded and said, "I heard from the people in Buwusi that it seems that some modifications are to be made. It will be withdrawn first and then released in two days."
The three lists of heaven, earth and people were drawn up by the Shenwu Division in the capital of Zhongzhou.
Usually, we start to integrate the data five days before the end of each month, draft the first version two days before the end, send it to the Ministry of War for review, and finalize the version one day before the end.
Then, it is sent by the Ministry of War to the Shenwu Division, and then to the Buwu Division of the states and counties, and then the states and counties issue it to the subordinate governments in a special way.
Therefore, judging from the Ministry of War, the third list received by Fucheng is actually the third hand.
Although thanks to the magic of martial arts, the three lists are sent from the capital city of Zhongzhou to the states and counties very quickly, the speed of dispatching from the states and counties to the prefectures is much slower.
Even if there are no modifications, there are always delays in updating, let alone when there are modifications, which will definitely make it slower.
"Are you saying that because you defeated Kong Chengshun, your name needs to be added to the list, so it needs to be withdrawn and revised?" Yu He said with a smile: "Although Kong Chengshun is not a good person, his strength is not weak.
"Luoxia Feijian, who is ranked ninety-nine on the list, was defeated by you in two or three strokes. According to the rules of the list of rankings based on performance, you should indeed be on the list instead."
"Impossible." Zhou Heng scratched his head. Although he was looking forward to it, he was still a little embarrassed and said: "There should be some changes in the Earth Ranking and the Heaven Ranking. A change at the end of the Person Ranking should not withdraw the three rankings. ”
"Hehe, stop pretending." Yu He understood Zhou Heng's character and said with a smile: "That's the list of people, what young man wouldn't expect to be on the list of people?
"That means not only fame, but also real benefits."
"How much will it cost if Ninety-Nine on the list of people attends various activities?" Zhou Heng asked excitedly. He was not sure about this, but Yu He, who has a perfect business acumen, must know.
"According to my understanding, more than ninety people are about the same, usually ranging from one hundred taels to three hundred taels." Yu He said with a smile: "Although the activities do not happen all the time, if there are ninety-nine people, it will last a month. It’s not difficult to make three or four hundred taels.”
“$-$!!”
Zhou Heng raised his eyebrows and his expression suddenly changed. He was full of expectations for the future, but when he thought about the postponement of the list, his expression fell again.
"How do you feel now that you are on the third list?" Yu He laughed.
"I feel like I missed out on 100 million." Zhou Heng rolled his eyes.
"One hundred million?" Yu He didn't understand the joke, but he could roughly guess the meaning, and said with a smile: "Actually, when your ranking is higher, fame and fortune will come rolling in, and you don't need to earn it yourself at all.
"By the way, Miss Xiu'er came to see you just now. It seems she has something to say to you. She is waiting at the tea shop opposite. Why don't you go and take a look?"
"Miss Xiu'er?" Zhou Heng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Then I'll go over and have a look."
…
On the tea stall.
Yunxiu was sitting at a table. She was wearing a moon-white dress. The red clouds in the morning reflected on her body and illuminated her face, which was unparalleled in beauty.
When she saw Zhou Heng coming, she smiled, pulled out a stool next to her, and said with a smile: "Brother Heng, you are here."
"I heard Yu He said you came to see me?" Zhou Heng sat next to her and said, "What's the matter?"
"I said it before." Yun Xiu poured a cup of tea for Zhou Heng and said with a smile: "After your assessment, I have some news to tell you."
"What news?" Zhou Heng asked curiously.
"I may not be able to come here once a month in the future." Yun Xiu slowly lowered his head and sighed: "In other words, I won't be able to see Brother Heng for a few days every month."
"What's going on?" Zhou Heng was immediately confused and asked, "Has the training course in the martial arts school become tighter?"
"No, and I will never be in Pingzhou County again." Yunxiu shook his head slightly, biting his red lips slightly, and said: "I left with the master, well, he just took me to the county to study. Wu’s teacher.”
She is a native of Huangtong Fucheng, and her parents make a living by selling breakfast. Logically speaking, she should not be qualified to practice martial arts in the county's martial arts hall.
But more than a year ago, a seventh-level master from Pingzhou County took a fancy to Yun Xiu's qualifications and recommended her to the large martial arts hall in the county town.
The seventh-level master was also a teacher at the Grand Martial Arts School in the county. Zhou Heng had met her a few times. She was a woman who looked to be in her thirties. Her appearance was not particularly beautiful, but she was quite charming.
Of course, it is not clear how old he actually is.
It's very offensive to ask about this.
"Master... have you accepted her as your teacher?" Zhou Heng frowned and said, "She wants to take you away?"
"Yes." Yunxiu nodded, with a somewhat sad expression, and said, "Master is very powerful. Half a month ago, she broke through the barrier of life and death, built a bridge between heaven and earth, communicated internally and externally, and successfully reached the sixth level.
"I was also nourished by the vitality of heaven and earth triggered by her breakthrough, and my inner energy filled my whole body. I only needed one ninth-level move to be perfected before I could truly step into the ninth level.
"So Master plans to take me out to travel and walk in the martial arts world. On the one hand, it is to verify her own practice, and on the other hand, it is to broaden my horizons and gain more knowledge."
"This is a good thing." Zhou Heng smiled and said, "In fact, I will leave Huangtong City in a while. Maybe we will have a chance to meet again."
"Really?" Yun Xiu's eyes lit up, and the originally depressed expression on her face suddenly dissipated a lot. "I thought it would take a long time to come back, and I wouldn't see you for a long time. Where are you going first? Do you have a plan?"
She suddenly became excited and returned to the lively girl she was before.
"Not yet." Zhou Heng smiled and said, "But if there is a destiny, there should be a chance to meet."
"Yeah!" Yun Xiu nodded happily, with a smile on her face, "Moreover, with your talent and talent, Brother Heng, once you enter the martial arts world, you will definitely be the best among the heroes and extremely dazzling. I just need to follow the light and I can find you!"
The last bit of sorrow in her heart completely disappeared.
...
Yun Xiu left after saying goodbye to Zhou Heng.
That afternoon, when Zhou Heng was practicing in the martial arts hall, he received the support of "a key young warrior in a prefecture" personally sent by the current Buwu General Feng He.
One thousand taels of silver note +1.
The opportunity certificate for asking the military forger to tailor a weapon for him +1.
The reward in terms of silver and money is much more than the original one. It is estimated that the newly appointed General Feng felt that Zhou Heng and Pei Zhantu had a close relationship and deliberately tried to please him.
For such free money, Zhou Heng never refuses anyone.
The next day, he followed the instructions on the certificate and found the military forger and asked him to make a waist knife for him.
The finished product was of good quality and could definitely be called a top-grade product among the hundred-forged weapons.
Zhou Heng did not add the piece of falling star iron to the forging of the waist knife.
Instead, he waited for the forger to forge the waist knife. After he had a clear understanding of the forger's level, he asked the forger whether he could forge the piece of falling star iron into a pair of gloves.
Originally, Zhou Heng only had one chance to forge, but he had inquired before that although these military forgers were not allowed to take private jobs, they could use the excuse of studying forging techniques or improving forging skills to forge some rare materials.
Falling Star Iron can undoubtedly be regarded as a rare material.
Therefore, as soon as the forger saw the Falling Star Iron, he immediately agreed to Zhou Heng, and designed six plans on the spot, letting Zhou Heng choose one of them, and then started forging.
This forger was resolute and resolute. As soon as it was dark, he forged the piece of Falling Star Iron into a pair of gloves.
The gloves were made of "silk threads" pulled out of the Falling Star Iron. The workmanship was very delicate and very thin. The surface exuded a clear glow, like the twinkling starlight, just like a work of art.
Moreover, this "glove" usually looks like a normal glove, but there is a hidden mechanism inside. Once it is activated, spikes will emerge on the five fingers and the back of the hand, instantly enhancing the lethality.
In addition, this pair of gloves, whether in terms of hardness or the sharpness of the spikes, exceeds the normal hundred-refined weapon, and also has three special effects.
Internal breath penetration, weapon deflection, lightness.
This is undoubtedly a sharp weapon-level "weapon", and it is also a top-grade sharp weapon, gloriously becoming the strongest weapon in Zhou Heng's hand.
Sharp weapon!
In fact, it is not only the ordinary warriors who dream of it, but also the forgers in the army hope that they can really forge a sharp weapon one day.
After the gloves were completed and the three special effects were detected, the forger was really excited to the extreme. An old man in his sixties actually cried.
This can be regarded as Zhou Heng helping an old forger to complete his lifelong pursuit and wish.
So, Zhou Heng had three weapons in his hands.
Sharp weapon-level gloves, quasi-sharp sword Zhizhi, hundred-refined weapon waist knife.
Zhou Heng decided to use the waist knife at ordinary times, and use the sword for things that cannot be solved by the knife. If the sword still doesn't work, use gloves.
There is always one that suits each other.
Or in an emergency, just use the gloves to fight the enemy.
Zhou Heng was very satisfied with the harvest of this forging. He planned to go home to have a good rest. Tomorrow, he would go to the mansion owner Wu Zongshan to ask if there were any clues about the disciples of the Plague Emperor Sect.
But Zhou Heng was stopped by Meng Xing, the head of the police in the prefectural government office, halfway before he got home.
"Zhou Heng, the prefect has something urgent to find you. Can you go with me?"
...
Prefectural government office.
In Wu Zongshan's study.
Zhou Heng looked at the information displayed on his desk and said in astonishment: "Wang Tong ran away? He seems to be only ninth grade. How did he run away?"
Wang Tong is the "father" of Wang Qingqing who was transformed by Chen Hanyu before.
After Chen Hanyu was killed, the Wang family was also dealt with. As the nominal head of the Wang family, Wang Tong was naturally locked up in the dungeon forever.
But now, he actually escaped.
"Yeah." Wu Zongshan's expression was very serious, and he said in a deep voice: "I suspect that he also has some special abilities inhabited by ghosts. The Gengjin sword energy a few days ago gave him another chance to try, so he was able to escape successfully.
"Mr. Zhou, can I ask you for a favor?"
