Volume 1: Reincarnation Cycle First...

  Lu Buji's heart skipped a beat, and he slowly withdrew his tiger fist stance: "What do you mean by 'big manager', can even a small Ze slave like me ride the Divine Bird aircraft?"

  Wang Leshou burst out laughing and said, "You still remember what Sixth Master said? Don't worry, Sixth Master has probably forgotten about that matter already. Besides, you're not just an ordinary Ze Nu now, but a martial arts champion from Guo Zhen Town. Next time you go to Yang Ze, you might even have the chance to ride on the Divine Bird aircraft."

  "It's been two years, it's about time to go back and take a look. Lu Buqi pondered for a moment, then nodded and said: 'When do we set off?'"

  "Tonight at nine o'clock sharp!" Wang Lishou replied: "This time I have to go with you, so if you're going, we'll head over after dinner."

  "Well, then trouble Old Wang to tell the leader. Lu Buqi nodded: "Don't forget to bring those 500 pitchforks and 8 executioner's swords."

  Wang Leshou nodded: "Don't worry, I've already spoken to the big manager about this. Anyway, when Shenying machine entered Linzi, it was empty too, and your things can all be put in."

  After finishing this matter, Wang Lishou yawned and left again, while Wang Niansheng and Wang Gangqiang stayed behind to practice bear boxing and tiger boxing. In this regard, Wang Gangqiang was more diligent than Wang Niansheng, especially after he discovered that the bear stance could improve his concentration during training, he became thoroughly infatuated with Wu Xing imitation boxing.

  Now, in Guzhen Town, everyone who is infatuated with the Five Animals Mimic Boxing has their own reasons. Undoubtedly, being able to practice the Five Animals Mimic Boxing is a very sought-after symbol. Just as Wang Lishou had predicted, the Five Animals Mimic Boxing would surely sweep through Guzhen Town, but many people only occasionally received guidance from the Four Great Kings, and those who truly received personal instruction from Lu Buqi were still extremely rare.

  Thirty-two mushroom buns, this is Lu Bu's current breakfast quantity. Wang Shuangxiao, although a girl, has also consumed a lot after practicing martial arts and can eat eight buns.

  After finishing the meal, Wang Shuangqiao tidied up the food box and glanced at Lu Fei with a careless expression, saying softly: "Are you going home?"

  "He'll be back!" Lu Buqi smiled lightly.

  "But this time, it's probably going to take half a month..." Wang Shuangcai clasped her knees with both hands and muttered: "When you're not around, I...I have to remind my mother to make fewer dumplings, or else we won't be able to sell that many..."

  Lu Buqi still smiled lightly: "Otherwise, I'll let Nian Sheng and Gang Qiang, these two carnivores, also change to eating your family's vegetable buns?"

  "It's okay!" Wang Shuangqiao burst out laughing: "I just...just feel that if you're not in the town, I'll be practicing alone and it will be very uncomfortable."

  "Isn't there still Niansheng and Gangqiang?" Lu Buqi said: "I made them work harder, they have been reporting on time these days."

  "It's okay!" Wang Shuangqiao said softly: "They... are different!"

  Bathing in the morning glow, Lu Buqi's face also burst forth with a sunny smile: "Or else I'll go ask the big manager if it's possible to bring you along, just like on a trip?"

  "Really?" Wang Shuang was surprised and delighted, but then smiled warmly: "No need, the big deal is for you to handle official business, I don't want to hold you back..."

  Lu Buqi smiled: "Really don't need it?"

  "It's okay!" Wang Shuang nodded cleverly: "You go, be careful, I'll wait for you at the North Entrance... that... by then I'll definitely be able to make Crane Stand and Deer Hope stand even better!"

  For Wang Shuangqiao's attempt to cover up, Lu Buqi smiled in his heart and stood up: "Wait for me to come back... and check your results!"

  In the morning, it was usually Lu Buqi's forging time. In a year and a half, Lu Buqi's greatest growth was not that he had cultivated his force techniques to fourteen meridians, nor that his internal strength had reached the level of Mingjin, but that he had mastered the method of concentrated forging of weapons.

  In this year and a half, Wang Lishou personally taught Lu Boyi the ironwork skills, and Lu Boyi's natural talent in this area undoubtedly shocked Wang Lishou again.

  Originally, Wang Leshou thought that Lu Buqi was born for the sake of force, but after seeing Lu Buqi's rapid improvement in his forging skills, he had to take back his previous words. Lu Buqi wasn't born for a particular thing, as long as it's something that interests him, he will devote himself wholeheartedly to studying and working hard, and this dedication will inevitably bring about a full return.

  Of course, it is absolutely impossible to ignore Lu Bu's talent in terms of strength and forging. Without talent, it would be impossible to reach the level of an ordinary person in ten years with only a year and a half of effort.

  Lu Buqi is now in Wang Lishou's shop, apart from managing food and accommodation, he has already received a salary of 12 knives per month, which is equivalent to the salaries of Wang Niansheng and Wang Gangqiang. As for this amount of money, Lu Buqi would naturally not mind, even though he spent nearly 10,000 knives in the past year to stock up on weapons and basic infrastructure for the village households, he was still a millionaire.

  Lu Buqi didn't have a master, so he also didn't have what's called "leaving the master". However, with his current level, compared to Wang Niansheng and others from a year and a half ago, there isn't much difference. And if we really compare the strength and hardness of their forged weapons, Lu Buqi might even be slightly better. After all, his physical strength is far superior to theirs. A single slash with a decapitating knife, if he's willing, can completely chop forty times.

  Lu Buqi really enjoys forging, or rather he likes the feeling of sweating profusely and participating in creation. Moreover, he finds that ironwork is also an art form, as if listening to a symphony.

  The bellows rise, like a melody playing, with the need for heating, the bellows will accelerate in a smooth and steady rhythm, filled with ardent hope. The flames in the furnace will jump to the beat of the bellows, soaring in the strong gusts.

  When the iron tool is heated to a deep red, the iron tongs quickly clamp it onto the large iron anvil. With one strike of the iron hammer, a string of sparks fly out, and with a burst of sweat and rain, the iron piece becomes an ideal object due to Lu Budie's inner craftsmanship.

  Since mastering the iron-forging technique, Lu Buqi was most satisfied with the three-edged spear he had forged for himself. Compared to his previous life's three-edged spear, there were some differences - Wang Lishou and Lu Buqi's research on the blood groove craftsmanship was slightly inferior, the blood grooves not being as neat and smooth, but the effect had already appeared.

  One long and nine short, with sharp edges exposed! The long one is like a fish intestine sword, with the handle inside only about a foot long. The short one is only four inches long. The long one is used for close combat in conjunction with the fish intestine sword, taking people's lives as easily as reaching into a pocket. The short one serves as a hidden weapon, killing people without warning.

  This set of deadly weapons, only Wang Lishou had seen, and he thought back to the time when they were on their way out of the dense forest, those few blood-stained daggers that played a crucial role, at that time he exclaimed: "These things should only exist in hell!"

  In the afternoon, before the routine practice at dusk, it was a relatively free time for Lu Buqi. However, during this year and a half, Lu Buqi followed Wang Lihong to learn some basic carpentry principles and gained a basic understanding of some mechanical techniques.

  Although compared to the technical aspects of blacksmithing, Lu Buqi is still a novice in carpentry, but he has mastered some basic skills, especially good at making wooden traps and small defensive mechanisms.

  As for Wang Liqing and Wang Lihai, the two men warmly invited him to go to the construction site and dye house to learn building technology and textile technology. Lu Buqi still politely declined, one is that he really didn't have enough time, and secondly, the slaves in the dense forest of Guazhu had wooden houses to live in and simple animal skin clothes to wear, which was already satisfying.

  Perhaps someone will express doubts about Lu Bu's behavior, why he doesn't spend more time on martial arts, but instead focuses on this kind of clever and cunning technique. Does he still plan to return to the forest as a bandit?

  Lu Buqi's aspirations are naturally not so shallow, but a person's life, in different periods, will always have different values. And this period of Lu Buqi, without a doubt, while pursuing freedom and human rights, also needs to prepare for the worst, after all, no one knows if good fortune will always be with him.

  But having a skill in one's body, no matter what state they encounter, their survival ability will only become stronger and not weaker. As for the level of martial arts, although it is said that one must practice hard, they cannot just bury their head and practice hard, many things need to be realized, and with enough familiarity, it can be done.

  This is Lu Buqi's almost routine and dull life for a year and a half, no doubt, Lu Buqi has gained a lot!

  At the moment Lu Buqi stepped onto the Divine Bird Machine, he glanced back at the slender figure of Zhen Beikou, and his mouth curled up slightly. But as he fully entered the interior of the Divine Bird Machine, taking in the strange wooden structure all around him, another person appeared in his mind.

  That man is called Wang Bo. He once said: "The divine eagle machine that my family, the Wangs, spent a huge amount of money to buy can't be used for Zehan to sit on, right?"

  Lu Buwei smiled, but what he didn't know was that at this moment, Wang Bo's mind was also thinking of him!
