I am Changsheng in Daqin

Chapter 37 Ice Money
It got dark in the afternoon.

Scattered snowflakes kiss everything.

Li Qing concentrated on studying the copper coins left by the strange man, but didn't realize what was missing from the iron shop.

'Who is that weirdo? '

Li Qing didn't have a clue in his mind.

The whole process was like a dream.

However, this dream is real.

This copper coin is the best proof.

Turn on the fire in the stove and place the copper coins in the fire to calcine.

High temperature is the only way to change your body.

A quarter of an hour passed.

The color of the copper coins has not changed, and it is not even meant to be heated.

Increase the fire intensity and continue calcination.

Half an hour passed and there was still no change.

Li Qing's mentality is also changing as the fire intensifies.

Excitement, confusion, shock, anxiety... collapse.

Li Qing held the iron tongs, took the copper coins out of the stove, and tapped twice with a small hammer, but there was no response.

I tried harder, but still no response.

Theoretically, there was no reaction, and the copper coin was never burned red.

Li Qing naturally understood this truth. He just didn't give up and wanted to give it a try. The results can be imagined.

I reached out and touched the copper coin, and I couldn't help being surprised. Then, when I took the copper coin in my hand, not only was it not hot, but it was even more soothing!
While confused, a carriage came from the opposite direction.

Li Qing took a quick look and knew who was coming.

He took out a small bag from his pocket and threw it on the chopping board.

Continue studying copper coins.

"Master Li, here I come again." The magistrate got out of the carriage and came with a smile on his face.

Li Qing had no time to answer him and just pointed to the right.

The county magistrate looked to the right, and there was a cloth bag on the chopping board.

remove.

"Thank you, Master Li, thank you, Master Li!"

No extra words.

Just like clocking in at a scheduled time.

Get the antidote and leave.

The county magistrate got on the carriage and was about to leave when he suddenly looked back at Li Qing and said:
"Master Li, I plan to hold a hunting competition. The date is set for the day after tomorrow. Are you interested in playing?"

Li Qing was immersed in studying copper coins and had no intention of talking to the county magistrate.

The county magistrate did not give up and continued: "The prize for the winner is very generous. You can shoot the slingshot so well. I believe you can win the championship."

Li Qing still ignored it, and threw the copper coin into the stove again.

Last time, maybe the calcination time was not enough and the firepower was insufficient, so it didn't work.

This time, he added a lot of charcoal and planned to burn him for a day and a night.

Seeing that Li Qing was indifferent, the county magistrate unleashed his greatest temptation: "Master Li, there are two other worldly experts participating in the competition. Their skills are extraordinary, like gods."

This time, Li Qing's idea was indeed aroused.

'A master from this world? '

'Could it be that weirdo and the beauty in purple robe? '

'Aren't they two mortal enemies?How could he participate in a hunting competition at the same time? '

'The county magistrate actually invited them!Do they have anything to do with each other? '

Li Qing was thinking about this and his thoughts were in confusion.

'Uh, what's wrong with me?What do they have to do with me? '

'Besides, the worldly masters mentioned by the county magistrate are not necessarily weirdos and purple-robed beauties. '

Thinking of this, Li Qing raised his head and looked at the county magistrate. He did not speak, but only raised his index finger and made a "come here" gesture.

The county magistrate understood, jumped out of the carriage, strode up to Li Qing, and said respectfully:
"What are your orders, Mr. Li?"

"Where are the two worldly masters you mentioned?"

The reason why Li Qing wanted to find out clearly was because he was worried that if the stranger and the purple-robed beauty were really friends of the county magistrate, it would be bad.

On the surface, the county magistrate was arrogant towards Li Qingxu, but in his heart he wanted to cut Li Qing into pieces with a thousand knives.

If those two worldly masters were really friends of the county magistrate, Li Qing's situation would be even more dangerous.

Lee Sin had to find out just in case.

"Uh... If you say it now, there will be no suspense. Then you won't be surprised even if you see their magical skills. Why don't you leave some suspense? Wouldn't it be more intriguing?" The county magistrate laughed.

"Fart!" Li Qing said, grabbing the cloth bag in the hands of the county magistrate and threatening: "I don't think you want this antidote?"

The county magistrate was so frightened that he fell to his knees and begged repeatedly: "Master Li, I said, I will say immediately, please give me the antidote."

"Say it quickly." Li Qing said impatiently.

The county magistrate stood up slowly and said: "There is a man from Rhinoceros Land named Minxie. I only know that this person has been practicing for many years, but no one has seen his true ability;
"The other one is from Penglai, Dongsheng, and his name is Wei Duo. It is said that he and Minshe have been fighting for hundreds of years without any victory.

"The two of them overheard that I had set up a game, so they took this opportunity to compete higher.

"I sincerely invite Mr. Li to participate. Firstly, I want to show my filial piety; secondly, I want them to see your magical skills.

"Even though they are foreign gods and men, we in Xincheng County also have peerless masters like you!"

'This old boy was drinking cold water and watching cat movies, so he didn't hold back anything good. However, I really forgot to ask the weirdo's name, whether it was Minxie or Vito, and I had no clue. '

Thinking of this, Li Qing snorted, and said, "You have been talking about it for a long time, and you made up the name in a strange way, and you didn't describe the physical characteristics of the two of them. I don't know what kind of strange bird it is."

"It's my fault, I didn't explain it clearly."

The county magistrate laughed twice and described his so-called worldly master in detail.

After Li Qing heard this, he knew it was not a stranger or a purple-robed beauty.

Since she was not a weirdo and a purple-robed beauty, Li Qing was not interested in listening anymore and dismissed the county magistrate with a raised hand.

Before leaving, the magistrate took one last look at Li Qing and said in his heart, "Stinky boy, I have plenty of ways to let you participate." '

At this time, the temperature in the stove has reached its highest point.

Time passed slowly, and as the sun set, there was still no change in the copper coins.

'What a few copper coins! '

Li Qing racked his brains and failed to figure out the secret, so he threw the copper coin away in anger.

He wanted to put it aside and ask about the situation when the strange guest came again.

However, it was this unintentional flick that made Li Qing discover the mystery of the copper coin——

when!
The copper coin hit the shovel hanging on the wall, and the shovel immediately froze into an ice shovel.

The copper coins immediately fell on the broken wooden box at the base of the wall.

Li Qing's eyes almost popped out when he saw it.

'The shovel... was actually frozen! '

After staying for a long time, Li Qing slowly picked up the copper coin, stared at it, and sighed: "There is such a magical thing in the world!"

Next, Li Qing experimented several times and found that the copper coin would freeze only if it hit an iron object.

"It's okay for the purple-robed beauty to use a leather whip as a weapon. If she uses any kind of axe, axe, hook and fork, I'm afraid..."

Thinking of this, Li Qing suddenly noticed the wooden box on the chopping board.

The appearance of the three copper coins in the wooden box is exactly the same as this one, but it is unknown what magical effect they have.

Li Sin decided to give it a try, and suddenly noticed that the halberd on the shelf was missing.

'Where's the halberd? '

'It's strange, I put it on this shelf. '

Li Qing frowned, trying to recall every moment of today.

"Oops, it must be the beggar. Tomorrow is the day when the owner of the halberd comes to pick up the goods. What should we do...?"
