In every hill, every big lake, every piece of farmland, every town, Li Yao would see many strange things and meet many strange people.

He once met an old man in his 130s, who was obviously just an ordinary person, but he had a four or five meter long spirit beast "Screaming Eagle" as a pet.

The old man said that when he was four years old, he accidentally picked up a palm-sized bird. Seeing that its wings were broken, he was very pitiful, so he connected the broken wings with branches and applied healing ointment to it.

Since then, this little bird has been sticking to him, growing up with him, getting married, having children, and aging.

For the first hundred years, this little bird has always been the size of a palm, and the old man is also used to having such a gadget around him.

Unexpectedly, after the old man's 104th birthday, the little bird's stature skyrocketed, growing to five meters long in just three years, revealing the majestic appearance of a spirit beast.

Only then did the old man realize that he had picked up something remarkable back then.

"I'm an ordinary salaryman, and my family was originally small. At that time, I had a son and daughter-in-law, and even my grandson was about to get married. How could I have a place to raise such a big bird?"

"I had to secretly raise it on the roof of a residential building. Because of this, I was often nagged by my wife and son and daughter-in-law. The neighborhood committee looked for me several times, and even alarmed the police!"

"Several cultivators from various sects of cultivation have come to my door, saying that they want to buy this guy at a high price, but how can I be willing? In the eyes of cultivators, it is a spirit beast, but in my eyes, it is my whole body. Youth, my whole life! If you don’t sell it, you don’t sell it!”

The old man gently stroked Xiaotianying's head. Said with a smile.

Known for its fierceness, the Screaming Eagle leaned on the old man very docilely.

It can be seen that its left wing is slightly distorted, and it seems to have been seriously injured.

"In this way, more than twenty years later, I retired. I don't have to worry about my children and grandchildren, and the old woman has gone before me. I can finally realize my childhood dream-I have been thinking since I was a child, little bird Xiaoniao, what if you were a spirit beast? Then I can ride you and fly, keep flying. Fly high mountains, fly across big rivers, fly up to the sky, and fly all over the Tianyuan world."

The old man laughed, showing his big mouth with missing front teeth, and climbed up behind Xiaotianying with great difficulty.

"drop-"

The old man blew a rusty whistle, and the Sky Screaming Eagle let out a long whistle and fluttered its wings. soar into the air.

The wing of this howling eagle was injured, and the old man was not a cultivator, and he didn't know how to control spirit beasts at all. It flew crookedly and slowly, extremely ugly.

The old man didn't care, he sang popular songs from a hundred years ago, and gradually disappeared into the layers of clouds like cotton piles.

Along the way, Li Yao met many old people.

He had met a powerful swordsman. Already successful and famous, but suddenly awakened at the age of ninety. I found that what I really wanted to be was a literary cultivator, a poet.

So the sword repairman put down his sword. Hike the Daxue Mountain and find inspiration in the desolate and vast snow field.

Occasionally, when encountering car bandits and road tyrants on the road, they don't use swords unless they have to. Instead, they try to influence the bad guys with poetry full of warmth and love.

Over the years, everyone around Daxue Mountain knew that there was such a "Poetry Demon" with excellent swordsmanship, and people were more afraid of him reciting poems and fighting against him than they were afraid of the three-foot green sword in his hand.

Li Yao also met a village doctor who graduated from Tiandu Medical College and worked in several sects of cultivation.

However, after turning one hundred and eighty years old, this peak cultivator of the foundation period gave up the high-paying employment of several large hospitals and practice sects, and went to every remote village in the Federation in anonymity, voluntarily treating the villagers in the poor and remote areas. .

"Thirty years ago, I helped the suzerain of a big sect to protect the Dharma and help him successfully embark on the alchemy stage. Later, the suzerain gave me a luxurious sea view villa, plus the most prosperous commercial street in a big city. , a total of five shops!"

"I used to think that this was the biggest consultation fee I ever received in my life."

In a simple brick house, the village doctor said to Li Yao with a smile while picking sweet potatoes in the firepit, "I didn't receive a more precious consultation fee until yesterday."

"What is it?" Li Yao carefully tore off the skin of the sweet potato, eyes blurred by the heat.

"I helped a little boy who was blind for four years to see again after being injured by fireworks. He gave me a big kiss, right here."

The country doctor pointed to his own cheek, smiling very brightly, naturally and peacefully.

A retired old man riding a howling eagle, a sword cultivator who wants to be a poet, a country doctor at the peak of the foundation period...

There are many, many such people.

During the day, Li Yao was in a picturesque fairyland on earth, listening to all kinds of strange stories told by these people.

In his sleep at night, Li Yao didn't forget to practice, he crazily devoured Ou Yezi's memory fragments.

Each memory fragment contains Ou Yezi's ten days to one month's memory.

And Li Yao can devour about one or two pieces of memory every night.

If there is more devouring, the mental power will be exhausted, and the whole brain area will be on fire, and the pain will be extremely painful, which is not conducive to cultivation.

During the three-month long journey, Li Yao devoured the memory of Ou Yezi's work as a blacksmith.

Different from Nankey Yimeng last time, this time, the memory fragments were completely integrated into Li Yao's body, completely integrated with his original memory.

It was as if he had really worked as a blacksmith in the Bailianzong 40,000 years ago, and he had practiced excellent metal forging skills.

Although in the process of devouring memories every time, Li Yao, as Ou Yezi, would be tortured to the point of death by a series of difficulties.

But the rewards are also enormous.

All of Ou Yezi's blacksmithing skills were devoured by him, and with the "One Hundred and Eight-hand Cloak and Hammer Method" as the basis, Li Yao was on the way of metal forging. Finally reached the pinnacle level.

In today's large-scale application of various technologically advanced refining weapons, looking at the entire Tianyuan world, it is impossible for there to be another person like Li Yao who foolishly learns the classical blacksmithing method from 40,000 years ago.

Therefore, Li Yao can be called "the first person in the Star Federation's ancient manual forging technique"!

Although this mighty-sounding title doesn't have much practical value. A small sense of satisfaction still floated in Li Yao's heart.

"Today is the forging technique, and tomorrow is the most brilliant weapon refining technique. When I swallow up Ou Yezi's memory of forging magical weapons, what about the Deep Sea University? One day, the title of Holy Land of Weapon Refiners will belong to us at the Great Wilderness War Academy." Equipment system!"

Three months later, the Commonwealth North. In an unnamed mountain village.

"Moo..."

"Meh..."

"Wow woof! woof woof!"

A large herd of wooden oxen and horses staggered to and fro in the grain drying yard at the entrance of the village, moaning weakly.

Wooden cattle and horses are the collective name for all agricultural metal puppet beasts.

Take this long-haired sheep that is making a "bleat" sound as an example. Its whole body is made of metal, with various crystals embedded in its joints, and dozens of talisman arrays are engraved around its body. It can walk automatically, looking for dead branches and leaves and straw.

After swallowing, it all decomposes into plant fibers and re-tangles into wool-shaped filaments in the stomach.

This kind of filament can be used to weave cloth and net, and even directly sew clothes for wearing in economically backward areas. It is a very valuable metal puppet beast.

Not to mention the huge copper ox next to it, which can not only plow the fields, but also only need to install some very simple parts during the harvest season. It can be transformed into a large harvester.

Cut off all the ears of rice with the horn-shaped blade in the front, and then swallow them in the mouth of the cow. What comes out from behind the buttocks is the golden rice.

In poverty-stricken areas, these metal puppets are the lifeblood of the whole family, often for several generations.

This is the case with this nameless mountain village.

Dozens of metal puppets are old-fashioned products more than a hundred years ago, and their service life has long since passed. They are either missing arms and legs, or the spar has been picked off by thieves. Or the talisman array engraved on the key points has been worn mottled and mottled by the years.

"Master Xiao Li, please help my aunt to see. Is this iron ox still alive? This is the dowry that my grandma brought when she married back then!"

"Master Li, I'll show you this big wolfhound later. Although it's not a living thing, it has been with me since I was born. It's been 130 years. It has feelings!"

Villagers with simple and honest faces surrounded Li Yao, and there were villagers slaughtering pigs and stewing meat for Li Yao in the side room, and the whole drying field was filled with the strongest smell of meat.

It is not easy to find a master who can repair magic weapons in such a remote area.

The honest villagers didn't know how to thank Li Yao, and one family simply slaughtered the fat pig they had prepared for the Chinese New Year.

Many dumbfounded children thought it was the New Year, dragging their noses and wandering around the grain drying field, cheering and laughing like silver bells.

"Wait a minute, wait a moment, all uncles and aunts, I want to check each piece slowly. I can't help it if it is too worn. As long as there is still a chance of life, I will try my best to repair these wooden cows and horses!"

Li Yao said with a smile.

After three months of experience, the Li Yao at this moment is completely different from when he first set off. If a friend sees him, he will definitely be shocked.

He was slightly taller by half a centimeter than a hundred days ago, and he looked a little thin. He had been eating and sleeping in the wild for a long time, which made his skin dark, his hair was messy and curled up, his beard was unshaven, and he looked a little sloppy.

He was wearing an ordinary coarse work clothes, covered with dust and oil stains, at first glance, he looked like an ordinary field worker.

The biggest change is his temperament. (It’s a great event to drop pie in the sky, cool mobile phones are waiting for you!
