Chapter 231 Ancient Huafeng Town Sea Test Gun
Xu Ning had sensed something was wrong earlier.
Yesterday, the Rock King Emperor threw the Heart of the Rock God into the dragon's mouth, activating the new Thousand Rock Wine Spring.
Based on the experience of obtaining the Heart of the Wind God last time, the rewards and attributes should come together.
But Qingyi and Wendy were nowhere to be seen, and the fact that the mature woman's voice didn't come out could be attributed to the Emperor.
But the Emperor had been gone for a whole day before Qingyi finally said hesitantly, "Yesterday was a special case, so let's make up for it."
You should know that when you first activated the Dust Concealment Cave and saw her, she only delayed for a moment, and the entire space shook like a vibrating massage bed.
But now it's been a day late, and there's still no sign of anything happening at Dust-Hidden Cave.
"Hey, haven't you recovered a lot of your strength? Can you max out my attribute panel now?"
Xu Ning didn't mince words and asked the woman in green directly.
The woman in green decisively indicated that you were just daydreaming.
Xu Ning ignored her. The fact that this woman in green could postpone the rule she set during her prime by a day meant that her strength must have recovered considerably.
The little snake wanted to hide it, so he let her be, as long as she wouldn't get herself into trouble.
Even with the help of the Heart of the Rock God, it still took Xu Ning most of the night to repair the two standard weapons from the Thousand Rocks series.
He picked up the fully repaired Thousand Rock Spear, gripped it firmly with both hands, and with a slash and a thrust, the heavy feel of it was indeed beyond his imagination.
Xu Ning thought to himself, no wonder so few people can use the Thousand Rock standard weapons nowadays. This spear alone is as heavy as a greatsword made of black iron.
Not to mention the Thousand Rocks Ancient Sword, which weighs at least three times as much as an ordinary greatsword.
After testing the two weapons one after the other, Xu Ning emerged from the Hidden Cave late at night. He took out the "Starry Night Sundial" he was equipped with, and the shadow needle displayed on it indicated that it was past the hour of Chou (1-3 AM).
Xu Ning walked towards Ning Guang's study, gently pushed open the door, and saw that Ning Guang was already asleep on the desk.
Xu Ning stepped forward and gently lifted her up in his arms.
Ningguang woke up immediately, rubbed her eyes and chuckled, "I accidentally fell asleep. Go and rest after you've finished your work. I'll finish approving these backlogged documents."
Xu Ning tightened his grip, ignoring her words.
For three days in Qingxupu, she had been protecting herself without a moment's rest, and the fatigue in her body had long since accumulated. Upon returning, she still had to rush to deal with those trivial matters.
"You don't have any demigod bloodline, so you need to rest when you're tired. Don't worry, Liyue Harbor won't collapse even if Ningguang is gone for a day."
Hearing Xu Ning's words of comfort in her ear, Ning Guang smiled, reached out and wrapped her arms around her lover's neck, and whispered, "I'll listen to you."
The two lay down on the Yunmeng couch in each other's arms. Xu Ning didn't bother her. He gently stroked the beautiful woman's back to coax her to sleep peacefully, and he also fell into a deep sleep amidst the lingering fragrance.
Xu Ning woke up the next day when the warm sunlight streamed in through the window.
He instinctively reached to the side, only to find nothing.
Xu Ning rubbed his face and sat up, stunned for a moment, wondering when Ning Guang had gotten up to work.
I really need to work harder and do more things myself, so that I can save Ningguang some effort.
After dressing and washing up, Xu Ning stepped out of the room, greeted Ning Guang, and then asked Bai Xiao, who was standing beside him, "Has Zhenhai arrived yet?"
Bai Xiao said with a hint of nervousness, "Ordinary people are not allowed to enter Qunyu Pavilion. I've asked him to wait outside."
Xu Ning smiled reassuringly at her and said, "I found two weapons to see how the soldiers of the Thousand Rock Army would feel using them, that's why I asked you to invite him over. I didn't mean anything by it, so don't worry."
Bai Xiao bowed deeply and said gratefully to Xu Ning, "It is Zhenhai's good fortune to receive guidance from Lord Xu Ning. I thank you on his behalf."
Xu Ning smiled, squeezed Ningguang's small hand resting on the desk, and said, "I'm going out."
Ningguang knew he was going to take care of important business, and gave him a big, happy smile.
Xu Ning walked out of the main gate of Qunyu Pavilion and saw a rather handsome young man standing straight outside the gate, holding a halberd.
"You're Zhenhai?"
Upon hearing Xu Ning's question, Zhenhai habitually gave a Qianyan military salute.
"Zhenhai greets Lord Xu Ning."
Xu Ning carefully examined Zhenhai's physique. Overall, he was quite robust, but the tension on his face was exactly the same as Bai Xiao's.
"You've reached the rank of wielding axe and spear in the Thousand Rock Army?"
Xu Ning's question made Zhenhai blush to the roots of his neck.
"No...no, I was originally just a clerk in the Qianyan Army. Because my cousin Baixiao works for Lord Tianquan, I begged her to arrange this sinecure for me. This axe and spear were specially approved for me by the military administration to show off."
Before Xu Ning could ask any further questions, Zhenhai spilled everything out, even revealing the secret of getting in through his cousin's connections, completely betraying Bai Xiao.
Xu Ning burst into laughter.
No wonder Bai Xiaohui was so nervous just now; she probably thought he was trying to give her cousin, who got in through connections, a warning!
However, she had no idea that she had only heard the name Zhenhai and liked the auspicious meaning of the name.
Xu Ning waved his hand and said to his cousin again, "Don't be nervous, I didn't mean anything by it. But just leave the axe and spear outside the door. We're going to test the guns today, so we don't need to bring them."
Xu Ning led Zhenhai, who was empty-handed, to the edge of the Qunyu Pavilion.
"It has wings of wind now, right?"
After receiving Zhenhai's affirmative answer, Xu Ning pointed to the old site of the Guhua Sect not far away and said, "Let's go there."
After saying that, Xu Ning used the edge of the platform to gain leverage, and leaped into the air. Without even opening his Wind Wings, he shot towards the mountain peak like an arrow.
Zhenhai, who was behind, was stunned.
Seeing Xu Ning barely land on the mountain peak, he then opened his Wind Wings and adjusted his body slightly before landing on Guhua Peak.
Zhenhai shook his head; he didn't have the guts to do that. He obediently opened his Wind Wings and slowly glided towards Xu Ning's location.
When he landed beside Xu Ning, he saw a spear and a sword stuck in Xu Ning's side.
After Xu Ning retracted his Wind Wings, he casually picked up his spear and stabbed it several times at the cliff face on one side.
Zhenhai heard several "thump thump thump" sounds. Although it was a hard stone wall, it made a sound like an iron spear piercing rotten wood. He couldn't help but marvel at the sharpness of the stone spear in Lord Xu Ning's hand.
"You come and give it a try."
Xu Ning handed the Thousand Rock Spear to Zhenhai, who respectfully accepted it with both hands.
Zhenhai was shocked as soon as he got his hands on the stone spear.
"It's so heavy! Luckily I caught it with both hands. If I had been even slightly careless, I'd probably be in big trouble by now."
Zhenhai, still shaken, dared not say that Xu Ning's thrusts with the spear in one hand were solely due to the sharpness of the spear.
Hold the gun level, using your waist and legs for power.
Zhenhai used almost all his strength to thrust his spear hard against the rock wall.
"puff!"
Zhenhai's thrust was direct and highly effective.
It nearly drove half of the spear into the stone wall.
And then... it couldn't be pulled out.
Xu Ning watched Zhenhai, his face flushed and struggling to draw his gun, and suddenly slammed his fist into his palm. "Oh dear, I still made a mistake."
