Gao Wu Da Qin: You don't want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 28 The Secret of Dragon City, The Divine Forging Chart

Above the third floor, all was quiet. «-(¯`v´¯)-« 6➈Ⓢħᵘ𝕩.Ⓒᵒ𝕞 »-(¯`v´¯)-»

There are quite a few people here, at least a hundred or so, but each one is very silent. When they need to communicate, they mostly use gestures.

Upon closer inspection, Qin Feng noticed that the entire third floor's decor resembled the internet cafe he had visited before his transmigration.

The third floor was divided into several rows, each row densely packed with virtual pods. The virtual pods were not large, only about three square meters, the kind you could lie down in.

These virtual cabins are just like the internet cafes of the past, with varying prices. Some luxury cabins are more expensive, featuring soft sofas, small fruit platters, and drinks, and the screens are holographic projections, making them quite comfortable.

There are also some regular hard-seat cabins and soft-sleeper cabins.

As the saying goes, when you ride a bicycle to a bar, you should save money where you can and spend money where you can.

Qin Feng selected a mid-range sleeper cabin, paid 500 yuan for five hours, and happily began his first shopping trip at the martial arts school.

Several panels quickly appeared on the martial arts hall's projection screen: martial arts techniques, elixirs, armor, divine weapons, and entertainment.

Qin Feng quickly began selecting the pills.

Qin Feng didn't look at the poisons because his teacher, Zhang Beihai, had said that most poisons available on the market have preventative measures in place and are unlikely to be effective. If he really had to choose a poison, he should choose a tonic! Especially a harmless tonic!

Some might ask, how can tonics cause poisoning?

That's because the amount of tonic was insufficient.

There's a famous saying in pharmaceutics: to talk about efficacy without considering dosage is to be dishonest.

For example, some medicines like "miracle oil" can be even more effective than mad drugs if they are potent enough!

Qin Feng selected three bottles of the ultimate enhanced version of the Xuan-grade, top-quality concentrated Dragon Bone Golden Lock Essence-Strengthening Pill! It is said that one pill can make an adult elephant go crazy for three months. Ordinary people need to grind and dilute it to take it, otherwise they will also die from massive congestion and explosion.

One bottle contains one hundred pills, three bottles contain three hundred pills, totaling thirty thousand yuan! That should be enough for my trip to Xianyang.

In addition to the Golden Lock Essence-Strengthening Pill, Qin Feng also bought three sets of soft armor suits produced by Mengchang Manor.

Lord Mengchang, one of the four great lords of the Warring States period, was from the State of Qi. Qi was most famous for its assassins, especially its light armor technology, which was unparalleled in the world. Light armor masters were the most powerful assassins in the universe!

Therefore, the soft armor used by the State of Qi to protect against assassins was the most advanced, and it was even used by the Qin Dynasty!

The only downside is that it's too expensive; the three-piece set cost a total of two million!

However, for Qin Feng, his life and fortune were more important than anything else, so two million it was!

The screen displays: "Notice: You have spent 2,000,000 Credits to purchase a Tier 1 Qi Defense Assassin Soft Armor Pack! Your purchase will be delivered to you within one hour via the Great Qin Vacuum Channel! Thank you for your purchase, and welcome to buy other items. ♗🍩 69hùⓧ.com 😂😺"

After purchasing the precious armor and poison, Qin Feng also looked at the ordinary Five Grains Essence Pills and Cleansing Pills for cleansing the body. To be honest, although these were useful, they weren't very effective, so there was no need to buy them.

It has now rotated to the Divine Weapon section.

Looking at the "Nothing Available" list below, Qin Feng suddenly felt like a penniless dog. ♡💣 ❻➈丂ⓗยⓧ.𝓒σ𝓶 💙💝

Qin Feng had always thought that with eight million, he had achieved financial freedom, but now it seemed that he had underestimated the prices in the Qin Dynasty.

But how can these weapons be so ridiculously expensive!

The same low-grade Qi-style assassin soft armor set only costs two million, but this low-grade Qi-style giant sword, which is a high-quality replica, is priced at one hundred million!

Wow, there are six figures for the number of consultations listed here!

These days, being a swordsmith is an incredibly lucrative profession!

Unfortunately, I'm a martial artist, not a swordsmith, and I can't learn that trick of turning the rotten into the magical.

After looking around, Qin Feng decided not to buy anything. It was too expensive; he simply couldn't afford it. He'd rather find something fun to do instead.

Qin Feng clicked on the entertainment section, and as soon as he opened it, many interesting programs appeared.

[Casual Talk on the Martial Arts World] [Used Goods Exchange] [Black Market Trading] [World Intelligence] [Cultivation Guidance]...

Qin Feng randomly selected the "World Intelligence" section and clicked on it. As soon as he clicked, a search bar appeared, allowing him to search for keywords.

Qin Feng randomly entered his place of residence, Longcheng.

Soon, rows of related intelligence secrets appeared below Dragon City.

These intelligence reports also come in different prices, ranging from as low as tens of dollars to as high as 100,000 dollars!

Qin Feng stared at the 100,000 yuan intelligence report, thought for a moment, and then clicked to pay.

The panel displayed the message, "Payment successful!"

"The most valuable intelligence in Dragon City is about to be presented to you. Before reading it, please abide by the basic common sense rule of not disseminating intelligence after reading it. Otherwise, if you are found to have disseminated this intelligence, you will be sued for losses of up to one billion."

"【Dragon City】The most valuable intelligence, the ultimate secret of Dragon City—the Divine Forging Chart."

"The Divine Weapon Forging Manual, also known as the Divine Weapon Forging Manual, the Ou Yezi Divine Weapon Forging Manual, etc., is a collection of texts left by Ou Yezi, the master swordsmith of the Spring and Autumn Period. It is a supreme classic that countless swordsmiths have dreamed of for their entire lives!"

Qin Feng was quite surprised when he saw this. How could Ou Yezi's legacy of forging techniques appear in Qin? Wasn't Ou Yezi from Yue? Back then, almost all of Ou Yezi's eight famous swords, as well as Gan Jiang and Mo Xie, forged by his daughter and son-in-law, were taken by Yue. Later, Chu also got a few, and almost none remained in Qin. How could Ou Yezi's forging diagrams appear in Qin? This information must be fake!

I spent 100,000 yuan!

Qin Feng continued scrolling down.

"Throughout the life of Ou Yezi, the master swordsmith known as the Divine Craftsman, he endured many hardships. Although he was famous throughout the world, he was also suspected and envied by others. In particular, he was repeatedly deceived by the King of Yue, who even forced his daughter and son-in-law to melt down the furnace to forge Gan Jiang and Mo Xie! This caused Master Ou Yezi to outlive his son."

"After the ensuing conflict between Yue and Chu, Ou Yezi, having lost his daughter and son-in-law in succession, defected to Chu. The ruler of Chu was overjoyed and treated him with the respect due to a king!"

"However, after Ou Yezi entered Chu, he was already old and weak and could no longer forge swords. So Ou Yezi simply passed on his lifelong sword-forging skills to the State of Chu."

"Later, Qin and Chu formed a marriage alliance for seven generations! On the seventh occasion, when a Chu princess married the King of Qin, she stole the Chu treasure, the Ou Yezi Casting Divine Manual, intending to give it to the King of Qin."

"The Chu Kingdom's quantum warship broke through the star gate and pursued the enemy to Dragon City. A battle broke out between the Qin and Chu Kingdoms. In this battle, the princess died, and the whereabouts of the Ou Yezi's God-Forging Diagram that the princess stole were unknown."

"Later, the Qin Dynasty sent many people to search this place, but they found no clues."

"Finally, one day, at a banquet in the Qin court, King Ying Zheng of Qin asked Shao Siming, a member of the Yin-Yang school, who was also present at the banquet, 'It is said that the Yin-Yang school knows countless secrets of heaven and earth. May I ask Shao Siming, where is the casting diagram of Ou Yezi?'"

"After calculating, the Yin-Yang School's Junior Master of Fate replied to the King of Qin that Ou Yezi's forging diagrams were in Qin and had never gone far!"

The King of Qin asked, "How can we find this treasure?"

"The Lesser Fate Master merely uttered a prophecy: one day, a young hero from the Land of Treasures will bring this Divine Forging Manual to see the King! Everything in the world will belong to the King!"

"Since then, countless people have been trying to decipher the deeper meaning behind Shao Siming's words."

"At this time, many people thought of Longcheng."

"And the most outstanding hero in Dragon City is the key to unlocking Ou Yezi's Divine Forging Token!"

"According to the rules of the Qin Dynasty hundreds of years ago, a so-called 'hero' would be the number one martial arts champion in the current ninth grade!"

"Therefore, the annual martial arts championship in Longcheng is very intense, with many people from other places traveling long distances to compete for the martial arts championship in this small border town!"

"They all wanted to try their luck, to see if they were the young heroes Shao Siming spoke of!"

"However, after all these years, it seems that Shao Siming's words were a lie; this Divine Forging Diagram has never appeared!"

"Later, many masters from various schools of thought also went to Longcheng to search for many years, but there was no news. However, the story became more and more mysterious."

After reading this intelligence worth 100,000 yuan, Qin Feng could only think, "This is too ridiculous!"

This intelligence report looks as mindless as a TV drama script!

How could this be true!

Is Shao Siming of the Yin-Yang School a fraud?

But upon closer reflection, Tian Shengyang and Xiao Buping were both top performers from other provinces. Their joining Longcheng and competing with him for first place only proves the authenticity of this information, doesn't it?

In addition, his uncle Jing Ke had been entrenched in Longcheng for a long time, and his father Qin Wuyang had even settled in Longcheng. They were probably also after this newly forged divine blueprint!

Qin Fengyue felt that this seemingly childish intelligence might actually be true!

If it's true, does that mean there's a possibility that this could happen?

And I just happen to be the top martial arts student this year, a true hero of Longcheng!

If I write in my diary, can't I increase the random probability to 100% and then encounter this serendipitous event?

Qin Feng quickly wrote it down in his diary.

"On the second day of the twelfth month of the Great Qin calendar, it snowed moderately, and I felt uneasy."

"I heard today that our Dragon City actually possesses the legendary forging blueprints passed down by Ou Yezi! The Yin-Yang School's Shao Siming said that one day, a hero of Dragon City will obtain this gift and take it to Xianyang! I really hope that lucky one is me!"

After finishing writing, Qin Feng clicked submit.

"Notice: This diary entry has been successfully submitted, consuming 100 drops of ink! You will be unable to write in your diary or make wishes for the next three months!"

Qin Feng was overjoyed to see that his diary had been successfully submitted.

Qin Feng knew that the deal was done!

My wish came true!

The probability is 100%!

Although the ink deduction was a bit excessive, a hundred drops at once, once I get my hands on the Ou Yezi inheritance, I'll have more money than I can spend and more silver than I can count, and I'll be financially free in no time!

Just then, a voice came from beside me, "Your purchased goods have been delivered via the vacuum channel. Please check and confirm receipt!"

Qin Feng hurriedly got up, signed for his soft armor and pills, and left the martial arts school in a hurry.
