In the next few days in the afternoon, Jingxiang Garden returned to its former tranquility.

Er Lengzi and Doudou never dared to be presumptuous in front of Ye Hen again. Xiao Qingchen was very satisfied with this, and even took the time to write a basic handbook for swordsmiths, and gave it to Er Lengzi for self-study.

"Master, I haven't finished reading the atlas of identification techniques last time..."

"not enough time?"

Xiao Qingchen raised his eyebrows in surprise, and continued to turn the pages of the book in his hands. A new round of assessment would start in two hours.

The Ling family specially arranged the assessment this time in the afternoon. At that time, more than a hundred people will gather outside the Luochuan Pavilion for a unified assessment. Those who are out of the round will be expelled from the Ling family.

So, after careful calculation, this should be the last day that Xiao Qingchen will stay in the Ling family's main house.

During this period, he studied the teleportation function of the stone mirror very carefully, and found that in addition to the geographical limitation, this stone mirror is even more depressing: it can only be used once a day.

Moreover, if you want to leave the Ling family through the teleportation function of the stone mirror, you have to get closer to the fence.

It shouldn't be a problem for a few people to leave the Ling family.

The key is how to get out of the city.

In front of Wushuang City, there are heavy guards, even if you use the invisibility technique to leave the city, there are Ling family's eyeliner outside the city...

Once the three of them want to successfully leave Wushuang City, Ye Hen will have to make two more trips.

Or, leave the Ling family first, and then hide in Wushuang City for a day?Wait until the next day, and then let Er Lengzi and Doudou use the stone mirror to teleport outside the city?

Xiao Qingchen braced his chin thoughtfully, lowered his brows and eyes, quite distressed.

But based on what he saw in Luohua Palace that night, his understanding of Ling Shao had to be rewritten.

The youthful obsession is probably deeper than he expected.Even if he performs poorly and is sentenced to be out later, I'm afraid he won't be able to leave easily...

What a mess.

Ever since meeting Ling Shao, troubles were doomed.

Xiao Qingchen sighed faintly, but he heard the idiot say: "Master, I'm afraid I don't have the talent to be a swordsmith..."

The voice was a little frustrated, with a hint of choking.

Xiao Qingchen was slightly taken aback, and looked up at the other party.

The young man in white pinched the hem of his clothes helplessly, with a guilty expression on his face, his eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but sneak a few glances at him.

Xiao Qingchen pursed his lips calmly, thinking back to the beginning, the idiot spent three years as a teacher, but it was a pity that Tianshan Jianmen didn't accept him. In the end, if it wasn't because he happened to meet him, this person would probably come to Tianshan on the eighth day of August every year Go sit back and wait for the rabbit?

"Have you decided to give up?" After a while, Xiao Qingchen asked in a deep voice.

Er Lengzi nodded hesitantly and said, "I'm sorry, Master..."

Xiao Qingchen remained silent, feeling a little lost in his heart, the first apprentice he took in in his life had just "miscarried"...

"Master, although I don't learn how to make weapons anymore, can you continue to teach me how to cook?"

"..."

"……is it not OK?"

Er Lengzi asked cautiously, his eyes sparkling, with a hint of expectation.

Xiao Qingchen couldn't help but smile, as expected——

There is actually not much difference between a swordsmith and a chef!

In contrast, he hoped that the fool would practice his cooking skills!

"of course can."

"Thank you Master!"

It's good that the apprentice didn't lose it, it's just...

Xiao Qingchen looked at the young man curiously, and asked in a low voice: "I remember that there is a method of summoning Linglong treasures in the appraisal technique map. Last time you bought a bunch of refined steel and cold iron in the city of Hanyu, which are used for casting. The materials are all..."

At the beginning, he completely followed the letters and notes left by Yi Kong and taught himself.

In retrospect, the process was not difficult at all, practice makes perfect, the most important thing is to control the spiritual power...

So Xiao Qingchen was really curious this time, which step did the fool get stumped by?

"Master, that..." the young man scratched his head in embarrassment, and said hesitantly, "I don't know how to draw."

"..." Xiao Qingchen was speechless.

A successful swordsmith must have three foundations: first, spiritual power; second: painter; last, patience.

Everyone has a spiritual power in their body. This spiritual power is called "spiritual power" by another name. Whether the spiritual power is deep or not is closely related to a person's will and spirit.

Usually, the stronger the will, the deeper the spiritual power and the more precise the control.

Just having spiritual power is not enough, one must go through systematic learning to correctly guide the spiritual power in the body and summon the exquisite treasure.

As for the painter, needless to say, each weapon must be drawn by the swordsmith himself in a detailed map. The more detailed and accurate, the higher the quality of the final weapon.

It was also fortunate that Xiao Qingchen had worked part-time as an illustrator for so many years, so there was no doubt about it as a painter or something.

Last but not least, patience.The process of refining the weapon is extremely boring. It can take half an hour as fast as half an hour and as slow as half a day. During this period, you can't move around or get distracted.Otherwise, if the refining fails, the Linglong Treasure suddenly disappears, and all the maps and materials drawn before will be in vain...

Now, the problem of the idiot lies in the part of the painter. If he spends a few years to practice the painter, maybe he still has a chance, otherwise, no one can help him.

Atlases not drawn by myself, even if they are placed in Linglong Treasure, they will not work.

After pondering for a while, Xiao Qingchen took out a blueprint, then handed the paintbrush to the second idiot, and said, "Draw Doudou, let me have a look."

"Uncle, you bully people!"

Since Yehen had been sitting next to Xiao Qingchen, Doudou didn't dare to yell loudly, but just refuted aggrievedly.

However, Xiao Qingchen didn't seem to hear it, and continued to stare at the second fool.

Really embarrassed by being stared at, the second fool finally picked up the paintbrush, and looked at Doudou who was lying on the table gnawing pastry, a drop of cold sweat fell on his forehead...

What is "writing like a god"?

Xiao Qingchen has completely realized that someone can draw an ellipse with extremely simple lines into a circle!It is still a circle of wavy siege!

"Master..."

Er Lengzi put down his pen embarrassingly, feeling quite ashamed.

Doudou lamented repeatedly, jumped over a few times, looked at the circle on the drawing, and burst into tears...

"Uncle, let me tell you, the idiot really can't do it. When we were at home, this idiot wanted to secretly forge some swords and sell them, but he put his own sword in front of him. , wasting more than a dozen blueprints, none of which can be seen!"

"..." Xiao Qingchen really had nothing to say this time.

"Master, I'm sorry..."

The second fool said nonchalantly, his face was flushed, and he looked like a little daughter-in-law.

Xiao Qingchen looked at this person calmly, and in the end he had to accept such a tragedy, that's all, as a human being, you have to make use of your strengths and avoid weaknesses, and only pick areas that you are not good at to challenge, that is called self-abuse!

"My dear boy, we will depend on you for our family's food from now on."

"Yes!" Er Lengzi nodded quickly and replied in a high voice.

At this moment, Ling Shao stepped into the door suddenly, and he didn't realize that the arrival sound came first: "Uncle, it's almost time, you come with me!"

"Isn't there still two hours left?"

Xiao Qingchen asked back without raising her head.

Ling Shao is so impatient, probably to separate him from Er Lengzi and Doudou. After he leaves, the Jingxiang Garden may be completely surrounded.

It can't be blamed on her being suspicious, it's because Ling Shao has never been aboveboard from the very beginning.

Thinking of this, Xiao Qingchen couldn't help feeling a little displeased.

"The examination match has been advanced. It's the opinion of the elders, because...the Ling family suddenly has an important guest."

Ling Shao stepped forward quickly, pushed the second fool away, clapped his hands on the desk, and said anxiously.

important guest?

Xiao Qingchen couldn't help raising his eyebrows. Could it be that the person who can make the Ling family inspire so much is... the national teacher?

The mysterious national teacher who predicted that "the blue dragon will be born and the world will be unified"?

Xiao Qingchen had lived in Hanyu City for a few days before, and had inquired about the situation of the National Teacher, but the strange thing is that even among the merchants who have lived in Hanyu City for a long time, few have seen the real face of the National Teacher !

In the White Empire, although the city of Hanyu was the capital and the emperor was indeed a puppet, the reputation and prestige of the state teacher was unquestionable.

According to the rumors, some people say that the national teacher is an old man who is about to die, and some people say that the national teacher knows the art of retaining the face. Although he is hundreds of years old, his appearance is like a young man...

Rumors should not be trusted.Xiao Qingchen smiled lightly and remained silent.

At this moment, who is the important guest that Ling Shao is talking about?

"Uncle, don't be dazed, let's go."

Ling Shao urged impatiently.

Xiao Qingchen nodded slightly, then got up, and when he was walking by Yehen's side, he secretly winked at him: The situation has changed, so stay put for the time being.

For Yehen, he was confident that the other party would definitely understand his prompts.But if it's Erlianzi and Doudou...

Xiao Qingchen couldn't help laughing, if it was those two, he probably thought there was something wrong with his eyes!

Ling Shao was anxious about this, so he directly pulled Xiao Qingchen away.

As for Ye Hen, fortunately, he understood Xiao Qingchen's hint, so he didn't follow up immediately, but explained the situation to Er Lengzi and Doudou, and then hurriedly chased him out...

Flying all the way, when he came to Luochuan Pavilion, Xiao Qingchen once again experienced the mood of the old days when he was out of the Tianshan Sword Gate. The other swordsmiths had already waited at the table, but he was late, and he was indeed not low-key enough. ...

"Uncle, I beg you, this time, you must behave well."

Hearing this, Xiao Qingchen couldn't help being startled, looking at the young man's hands tightly holding onto his wrist, remembering that night in Luohua Palace, the young man's angry and unwilling eyes before he left, and unconsciously asked some words : "I have lived in Jingxiangyuan for so many days, it seems that I have never seen your parents..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw the young man's complexion suddenly changed, and his body trembled imperceptibly.

Xiao Qingchen's heart tightened, and he suddenly recalled his previous guess. The man in the Library Pavilion had an ordinary appearance, around forty years old, and seemed to match some of Xie Kui's characteristics...

Could that man be Xie Kui, Ling Shao's father?

"Uncle, I'll tell you this question after your assessment is over, okay?"

The young man's tone was almost pleading, making Xiao Qingchen suddenly at a loss.

If Ling Shao continued to use that set of coercion and lure to deal with him, Xiao Qingchen could pat his ass and leave directly.

Even though there are many difficulties, but what Xiao Qingchen wants to do, he can definitely do it!

But now, the boy's expression and two words just inadvertently shook his compassionate heart.

Suddenly, Xiao Qingchen remembered the promise he had made to his sister, his stubborn father, and those things that he had tried his best to ignore...

"Okay." Unknowingly, he nodded.
