Chapter 83 Black Iron Tree
Liang Zifeng thought about it and suddenly remembered something he had always wanted to deal with but had forgotten about because of being busy.
Ma Rulong regretted it so much that his eyes twitched unconsciously. He wanted to slap himself a few times for being so rude.
"Ahem, Mr. Liang, is there anything else you need me to do?" Ma Rulong asked cautiously.
"It's nothing. I wonder if Master Ma has seen this." Liang Zifeng took out a small branch, or rather a small piece of branch, from the Zixu Ring and handed it to Ma Rulong.
"This... let me take a closer look." After taking the small piece of branch, Ma Rulong looked at it carefully.
"This looks like a branch of a black iron tree. It's a kind of refining material. Only black iron trees that are over a thousand years old can be used as refining materials. They are very rare. However, this branch should only be a few decades old. It's not worth much."
"Oh? Black iron tree? Are you sure?"
"Well, it's pretty close."
"Okay then, the third requirement is that in addition to a large amount of metal, we also need black iron branches that are more than 50 years old. Well, that's all."
"..."Ma Rulong held the branch, his face a little stiff, but he still nodded mechanically and agreed.
"Hahaha, since Master Ma is so sincere, this is my first request." Liang Zifeng said with amusement when he saw the other party's look.
When Ma Rulong heard this, he was also full of anticipation, waiting for Liang Zifeng to continue.
"The first request can be made last. If the second and third requests can satisfy me or even exceed my expectations, then the first request can be waived."
"Ah?" Ma Rulong showed a disappointed expression on his face, and then asked in a somewhat tangled manner, "I wonder to what extent I can exceed your expectations, sir?"
"It's up to you." Liang Zifeng looked at Ma Rulong meaningfully and said.
"Oh, by the way, how many jades do you have here? Give me some first."
"Okay, I'll tell my servant to get it."
About 5 minutes after Ma Rulong gave the order, several servants came back panting, each holding a large piece of jade raw stone.
"Mr. Liang, these raw stones are already the largest ones in Majiazhuang. The others are very small." Ma Rulong said apologetically.
"Yes, these will last me for a while. I'll come back to see the results in half a month. Goodbye."
After Liang Zifeng finished speaking, he waved his hand and put the raw stones into the Zixu Ring, then strode out of the Ma family. To everyone's surprise, he quickly went away at an extremely high speed.
"Hiss~" There was a sound of gasps all around, and everyone's face was filled with shock.
Ma Rulong, who was seeing off the guests, frowned even more tightly, his pupils shrank, and he felt a little relieved after seeing Liang Zifeng's speed.
"With this speed, I wonder if the late 2nd-grade Grand Elder can catch up? Could the rumors be true? Did he really become a disciple of a peerless martial arts master?"
There are many theories about Liang Zifeng's inheritance, but no one believes in the theory that the memories were brought by the soul-leaving syndrome. After all, it is a bit too mysterious.
Moreover, judging from the martial arts used by the other two boys of the Liang family, they are all relatively common martial arts, but they have undergone magical optimization. Therefore, everyone generally believes that Liang Zifeng has become the disciple of a peerless martial arts master with extraordinary cultivation level. This speculation is more credible.
Thinking of Liang Zifeng's two requests, Ma Rulong began to have a headache again. Although the requirements were not difficult, it was hard to say how much he could get.
Liang Zifeng did not use his mental power to fly to the sky after leaving Majiazhuang. He was not in a hurry to travel. It was a rare opportunity for him to come out and enjoy the snow scene outside.
With his superior strength and extremely high level of lightness skills, Liang Zifeng could easily walk on snow without leaving any traces.
"If you look closely, there are still some traces. Your skills are still not up to par."
After walking for a while, I suddenly became interested and turned around to look at where I had walked. I really couldn't see anything, but if I looked carefully enough, there were still a few footprints. But think about it, this is in line with physics.
"It would be great if we could achieve something like mental power that can ignore physics." Liang Zifeng suddenly sighed.
When we passed by Majiaji, there were almost no people in the market because it was not a market day. I thought that in such cold weather, many people would freeze to death.
But through mental scanning, he discovered that only five or six people were frozen to death, half of whom were beggars.
Although the poor people in the market had no money to build houses or repair broken houses, they came up with a solution, which was to live together with many people and dig deep underground.
In addition, heated beds and fire walls have become popular in the market, which was somewhat beyond Liang Zifeng's expectations, but it was reasonable when he thought about it.
Without continuing to pay attention to the market, Liang Zifeng continued to walk into the mountains. Each step was more than twenty meters away, so his speed was very fast.
From what he saw along the way, he discovered that the villagers in the mountains were much more fully prepared for the winter than those in the market. Liang Zifeng also discovered a two-story building with double walls in Liujia Village, which surprised him a little.
This two-story building is not small, it is more than 300 square meters. The inside is made of bricks and tiles, and the outer walls are made of mud bricks. The mud walls and brick walls are directly filled with a large amount of straw.
It seemed that there were not just one family living in this two-story building, but several families living together. However, Liang Zifeng was not so gossipy as to find out the details.
When he returned to the valley, it was already evening and Leng Yuzhao was already preparing dinner.
"Huh? The formation has been tampered. Who is so unlucky?" When he discovered through his mental power that the experimental formation in the orchard had been touched by someone, he had some funny guesses in his mind about who it could be.
When his mental power swept across the inside of the cliff, he knew who it was. He saw the little girl and Xiaobai rolling a crystal ball on the ground and having a lot of fun. Needless to say, the crystal ball was the other subject of his experiment.
The little girl who was playing with Xiaobai and rolling the crystal ball seemed to sense something. She left Xiaobai behind and ran to the window, then jumped up happily and waved hard out of the window.
"Little sister, is the second brother back?"
The fourth brother, who had just lit the candles, saw the little girl's behavior and guessed that it might be Liang Zifeng who returned.
"Yeah, I'll go pick up my second brother."
The little girl turned around, nodded at the fourth child, then ran towards the stairs excitedly, put on her slippers, and ran down the stairs.
