supernatural blood

Chapter 41 Xiao Ya's Apprentice

In the early morning of the next day, Mu Yan brought Mu Zhi and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy to visit Xiao Ya's tower.

"I've met Master Mu Yan." After the two parties were polite, Xiao Ya invited Mu Yan to sit in the pagoda.

"I still have something to do, so I won't go in." Mu Yan's attitude towards Xiao Ya was very kind, which was also related to Xiao Ya's strength in casting soldiers, "Master Hu Feng, I'm here this time, I have something to ask you for."

"Master Muyan, please tell me."

"This is my cousin, named Lu Zheng. His physique barely meets the requirements of a soldier-casting division. My aunt had high hopes for him and sent him to the Union of Soldiers-Forging Divisions. Now Lu Zheng has lit up two souls Node is considered an apprentice in casting soldiers. I hope you can take him by your side, run errands for you, take care of food and daily life. And when you are casting soldiers, if there are no secret formulas or casting maps involved, let him be in Watch from the sidelines and accumulate experience, okay?"

Xiao Ya asked suspiciously: "Master Mu Yan is a second-tier soldier casting master, why didn't you let Lu Zheng observe by your side?"

Mu Yan shook her head and said, "My usual job is to prepare Tier [-] beast blood and cast and maintain Tier [-] beast soul soldiers. It's very difficult for an apprentice who makes soldiers to learn anything."

Xiao Ya understood: "I have no objection."

Mu Yan smiled and said, "Then I will thank Hu Feng, the soldier-caster first. Lu Zheng, come and pay respects to Hu Feng, the soldier-caster, and we will treat each other like a teacher from now on! Do you understand?"

The boy named Lu Zheng walked over with a face of reluctance, and said in a low voice: "Cousin, he is too young, how much can he know about how to build soldiers, and what can he teach me?"

Xiao Ya's face remained unchanged, but there was a trace of unhappiness in his heart.

Mu Yan's face darkened: "Lu Zheng, why are you so ignorant? I chose Hu Feng Armor Builder for you, of course I have my reasons! Hurry up and apologize to Hu Feng Armor Builder!"

Lu Zheng's face turned red, and he poked his neck and said, "Cousin, it's fine if you don't want to teach me, why send a child to perfuse me? What can I learn by following such a child? Why not be like Cousin Muzhi? , Communicate with and pass on commissions to all the casters, and you can also get closer, and maybe you can learn some unique soldier-casting skills."

"What unique art of casting soldiers?" Mu Yan trembled in anger, "You obviously don't want to suffer, but just want to take a shortcut! From what you mean, do you think I'm partial to Muzhi and treat you poorly?"

Lu Zheng lowered his head and did not speak, but that attitude represented acquiescence.

"Okay, okay!" Mu Yan waved her hands and said, "Mu Zhi, you turn around and hand over all the entrusted affairs of the front hall to Lu Zheng! I want to see what 'unique skills' he can learn?"

Mu Zhi said softly: "Sister, I want to follow Hu Feng's army builder, can I?"

"Huh?" Xiao Ya was a little surprised, and smiled, "Sister Muzhi, don't you think that I am younger than you, and being my apprentice is a shameful thing?"

Mu Zhi repeatedly waved her hands and said: "No, no, I have always admired Hu Feng's technique of casting the ice wolf short sword yesterday after seeing Master Hu Feng, and I want to follow you to learn the experience of casting soldiers, but the affairs of the front desk are entangled , That's the end of it. Cousin Lu Zheng is here to replace me, which is exactly what I want."

Mu Yan's pretty face was a little embarrassed, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Xiao Ya: "Master Hu Feng, I misjudged Lu Zheng, and I am very sorry for you. But Mu Zhi really wants to learn from you sincerely, and I hope you I can take her."

Looking at Muzhi's hopeful eyes, Xiao Ya nodded in agreement.

The front hall of the Armed Forces Association.

"Lu Zheng, why is it you? Where's Mu Zhi?" Feng Biao was a little surprised.

Lu Zheng quickly stood up and bowed to Feng Biao: "Master Feng Biao, I will take over the front desk work from Cousin Muzhi. She is going to be an apprentice with the new recruiter Hu Feng."

Feng Biao's expression changed, and he said bitterly, "It's this Hu Feng again!"

"Master Feng Biao, that kid named Hu Feng, is he really good?" Lu Zheng asked.

"Hmph, what a fart!" Feng Biao swears, "At the age of fourteen or fifteen, even if you start learning how to cast soldiers from the womb, you can't do much better! Let him pass the first-tier military builder assessment." His eyes rolled, and he began to think about how to deal with "Hu Feng".

Lu Zheng was relieved. He refused to be "Hu Feng"'s apprentice because he didn't like the other party's age. The attitude of Feng Biao's military master just showed that his choice was correct.

"Lu Zheng, we, the Military Foundry Association, can't let such a young boy ruin his reputation. You are now in charge of accepting commissions for the Military Foundry. You'd better tell the customers about Hu Feng's details, especially his age. !” Feng Biao said.

"Okay, but there are too few soldiers casting masters, and there are many commissions. If someone is unwilling to queue for a long time and goes to Hu Feng with a tentative mentality, I can't stop it." Lu Zhengdao.

"Hmph, you just need to turn Hu Feng's name tag over so that the back is up! This means that he is busy, and naturally no one will look for him." Feng Biao had an idea.

"But this is against the regulations..." Lu Zheng hesitated.

"Lu Zheng, as long as you are willing to do this, I will set aside a fixed time every month to explain the way of casting soldiers to you!" Feng Biao took out a blue card from the space crystal ring and handed it to Lu Zheng , said with a smile, "You take this thousand gold coins for pocket money."

Lu Zheng's eyes lit up, and he nodded heavily.

Feng Biao walked towards the backyard, with a sinister smile on his face: "Hu Feng, just wait and see... I will drive you out of the Armed Forces Association sooner or later!"

Three days passed in a flash.

Xiao Ya is very satisfied with Muzhi.This girl does not have the airs of "Master Muyan's sister" at all. After busying herself, she took care of the NO.12 tower in an orderly manner.

During the occasional chat, Xiao Ya learned that Mu Yan and Mu Zhi's parents died early, and they lived in their aunt's house since they were young, so they developed the habit of being diligent.Now that Mu Yan has become a second-tier military builder, she is capable of establishing her own family, but remembering her old love, she still takes good care of her aunt's family.

During the interval between Xiao Ya's practice, he would tell Mu Zhi some details that need to be paid attention to in terms of casting soldiers.Xiao Ya inherited the memory of Feng Hu, the master of military casting. Although he only learned a small part, it was still very extensive. Muzhi's eyes glowed and he was amazed.

"Today, I officially started accepting commissions. Sister Muzhi, although I have told you a lot about how to forge soldiers in the past three days, they are all on paper. If you really want to learn something, you have to observe it on the spot." Xiao Ya said.

In front of Muzhi, Xiao Ya didn't put on airs as a military builder, but called her "sister".Muzhi was not used to it at first, but later she accepted it.

Mu Zhi said with a smile: "The supply of soldiers listed by the Federation has always been in short supply. It won't be long before there will be commissions."

Xiao Ya nodded: "Sister Mu Zhi is waiting in the military casting room on the first floor, if you have any entrustment, please call me again."

Muzhi agreed, and walked down the stairs lightly.Xiao Ya closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the bamboo bed, intending to guard the ancestral orifice and learn the knowledge of casting soldiers.

One morning passed, and there was no one in front of the NO.12 tower.On the contrary, in front of Feng Biao's NO.11 tower next to it, there were two or three groups of people queuing up.

Xiao Ya was on the third floor of the tower, immersed in the endless knowledge of casting soldiers, unaware of the passage of time.Mu Zhi, who was waiting in the military casting room on the first floor, couldn't sit still anymore, and walked towards the customers queuing in front of Feng Biao's NO.11 tower.

Because he worked in the front office before, Muzhi was familiar with many adventurers, and also met a few familiar faces.

"Isn't this Ms. Muzhi, why are you here instead of in the front hall?" A man with a griffin pattern on his clothes asked with a smile.

"I'm following Hu Feng as an apprentice now." Muzhi said softly, and she recognized this guy as Gray, the leader of the "Griffon Adventure Group", a master of fusion.

"Hu Feng Armor Builder?" Gray thought for a while, then suddenly asked, "Is that the new Armor Builder, less than 15 years old?"

Muzhi nodded.

"Miss Muzhi, why did you follow him?" Gray said in amazement, "Hu Feng has no real talent at all, and he passed the examination of the soldier builder only because of good luck. This matter has spread in the adventurer camp. .Following him, what can I learn?"

Mu Zhi's eyes widened: "How is it possible... who is talking nonsense?"

"Next, Griffin Adventure Group Gray!" Feng Biao's voice came from the first floor of the tower, and at the same time, he looked out and saw Muzhi at a glance.

"Hey, isn't this Sister Muzhi?" Feng Biao chuckled, "What's the matter, the soldier-casting master Hu Feng you follow actively doesn't seem to have received any entrustment. No wonder, it's too young to be reassuring."

"Hmph," Mu Zhi ignored Feng Biao, turned around and left.

***
The NO.12 tower where Xiao Ya is located, the third floor.

After listening to Mu Zhi's narration, Xiao Ya smiled slightly: "So that's the case, I know."

"Master Hu Feng, why aren't you in a hurry?" Mu Zhi said, "It's obvious that someone is trying to ruin your reputation, otherwise how could it spread throughout the adventurer camp within two or three days? I think you can't get rid of Feng Biao It doesn't matter!"

Xiao Ya smiled and said: "Anxiety can't solve the problem. I still have less than a thousand gold coins, which is enough to spend in the short term, so I don't want to accept the entrustment immediately. Sister Muzhi, don't worry, there will be entrustments sooner or later. It’s never too late to prove our strength.”

Mu Zhi pouted, but didn't speak.

"Huh? At the No.11 tower, there seems to be some disputes?" As Xiao Ya's soul power improved, his perception became more acute.He walked to the east window and looked towards Feng Biao's tower.

"Feng Biao is very greedy and asks for a high price. When he meets a beautiful female adventurer, he still wants to take advantage of it. It's normal to have disputes." Muzhi was talking, standing side by side with Xiao Ya by the window, looking down look.I saw a big man with a large shield on his shoulders, waving his arms excitedly, and said something.Behind the big man, there is a beautiful woman with a fiery figure and an iron bow on her back, and three young men.

"What a coincidence, it turned out to be them," Xiao Ya said with a smile, "Sister Muzhi, please come and take them over, just say that Hu Feng is here."
