The Glorious Summoner

Chapter 125

125 2-Yuan realm

Xia Pingan opened his eyes and found himself in a workshop. Looking around, he saw a large number of Peacock stones and charcoal piled in the workshop’s courtyard.

In the underground kiln not far away, it was hot. A group of technicians were busy smelting Peacock stones on burning charcoals. The refined copper liquid was flowing into the molds which had long been cured through the channels on the ground. Those molds were all copper mirrors.

Seeing the peacock stones and charcoal, Xia ping ‘an’s mind settled down. This was the fire method of refining copper, a method of metallurgy that appeared in the Shang Dynasty of China.

When he first saw the word ” yang gan “, he wasn’t sure what the realm Pearl was used for, because the surname ” yang ” existed in ancient China. No one knew if the realm Pearl was someone’s name. However, when he saw the workshop here, he was sure.

Xia ping ‘an looked at the clothes he was wearing and then at the clothes of the people around him. He made a rough judgment in his heart that he was probably in Western Zhou at the moment. In ” the Rites of Zhou, the autumn Court of the bandits, ” there was a record of ” the SI Rong family, who controlled the husband and took the bright fire from the sun.

At this moment, he and a few craftsmen were listening to a man who looked like an official.

“After a few days, it will be the birthday of Lord Taizai. All the feudal vassals and local officials have expressed that Lord sikong has ordered us to make delicate objects and present them to him. Lord Taizai likes delicate objects the most. As you’re all the Masters in the works Department, you should do this job. If you do it well, Lord sikong and I will reward you heavily. If you don’t do it well!” The official’s face sank,”when the time comes, don’t blame me for being merciless.”

There was no Prime Minister in Western Zhou, so the position of the Grand Prime Minister was equivalent to that of the later generations. Sikong was also known as sigong in Western Zhou. Sikong was responsible for the construction of civil and water projects. The works Department should be the ” state-owned factory ” under Western Zhou. The man who looked like an official was probably one of the ” subordinates ” in charge of this place.

At that time, the division of official positions was not as detailed as that of the later generations. The so-called ” wingmen ” referred to the assistants and subordinate followers of big figures. For example, sikong’s wingmen were assigned to manage the Ministry of Works which was responsible for smelting bronze wares.

we can make some bronze mirrors to offer the Kasaya, ” one of the craftsmen said.

“A copper mirror?” The aide looked a bit unhappy as he asked, ” Lord Taizai, do you lack bronze mirrors at home? many vassals and scholars would gift them to us. Lord Taizai would reward us with bronze mirrors. Do you want Lord sikong to gift us the same thing as the others? ”

Since the bronze mirror was out of the question, the other craftsmen spoke up one by one. Some said that they would deliver wine vessels, tableware, copper lamps, copper furnaces, copper jars, and copper goat kasayas.

All these suggestions were vetoed by that aide one after another as they were too common and couldn’t display Lord sikong’s talent in managing 100 workers.

Xia Pingan sighed in his heart. As expected, since ancient times, gifts had always been a sophisticated subject.

can’t you come up with something elaborate? it’d be best if it’s something that Lord Taizai has never seen before. It’s unique. Whoever can come up with it will be rewarded with 50 kilograms of money and 10 cassocks. the subordinate glanced over Xia Pingan and the others. All the craftsmen were silent and looked embarrassed. there are still a few months left. You can take your time to think about it!

Seeing that the aide-de-camp official was about to leave in disappointment, Xia ping ‘an said, ” I thought of an item that is unique. Perhaps I can offer it to Lord Taizai!

The official’s interest was piqued. Oh, what are you thinking of? ”

“I’ve thought of an item that can light a fire on a sunny day!” Xia Pingan said calmly.

“A wood sui?” The aide’s face turned gloomy at once as he said furiously, ” do you want to die? how dare you lie to me at this moment? ”

wood clogs are the ones that make fire by drilling wood. What I’m talking about is not wood clogs, but gold clogs. They don’t need wood but are made of gold and copper, just like copper mirrors. However, they are different from ordinary copper mirrors. When the gold clogs are aimed at the sun, the sunlight can be gathered to one point and ignite the clogs made by AI Rong.

The aide-de-camp official wasn’t completely stupid. He knew that the light was hot and that the bronze mirror could reflect light. Hearing Xia Pingan’s clear explanation that he could concentrate the light in the bronze mirror into one point, he suddenly became energetic and excited. you can really make this thing. If you can really make it, it will be a great achievement!

“I’ve never created this before, but after pondering over it for the past few days, I feel that this method should work!”

“How did you come up with this idea?”

last time, I saw a copper mirror in the warehouse depressed by a heavy object. When I used the sunken copper mirror to calibrate the light, I found that the reflected light was no longer as flat as before. I think we might be able to use this method to make a special copper mirror and use it to make a fire.

The aide-de-camp official thought for a moment and agreed that it was indeed the case. The bronze mirrors produced here had to be polished carefully, but the mirror surface could not be uneven. Once there was a dent or a bulge on the mirror surface, it would not be able to shine on people. The light would be distorted when it was shone on. how long do you think it will take to make it? ”

assign a few people to me. I’ll be able to build it in a few days at the earliest! Xia Pingan said directly.

“Alright!” I’ll give you one month. Within this month, you can assign all the craftsmen and slaves in this Department!

“Yes!”

With the help of the craftsmen, it was much easier. Xia Pingan asked a few craftsmen to make a few different new molds. The new molds were like the bottom of a pot with an arc. When the molds were completed, they poured copper liquid into the molds directly using the techniques of making copper mirrors. A few strange-looking ‘copper mirrors’ with concave surfaces were created.

The bronze mirror that was created also went through various processes such as polishing and polishing. In just a few days, it was completed very quickly.

On the afternoon of the second day after the Yang Gu was completely polished, that subordinate official also came. All the craftsmen and slave workers in the works Department gathered in the open space outside the works Department. They were all shocked and curious to see how the strange-looking copper mirror would start a fire from the void.

Xia Pingan held the bronze mirror and faced the sun, looking for the focal point of the reflection. Then, he placed a ball of mugwort on the focal point.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, in less than a minute, the lump of AI Rong began to smoke and burn.

God item Xi Xi! God item Xi Xi! It’s really a God item Xi Xi! at the sight of this marvelous scene, everybody exclaimed. That aide almost jumped up due to excitement.

No one had ever been able to start a fire from light before, but this strange-looking copper mirror that Xia Pingan had made could actually start a fire from light. This was much easier than drilling wood to start a fire. It was not an exaggeration to call it a divine item.

The process of creating the Yang Gu was smooth and without any hiccups.

Xia ping ‘an didn’t know how this yang banner was finally given to Lord sikong and Lord Taizai.

The world formed by the realm Pearl shattered again.

This time, his divine power had increased by 15 points. The upper limit of Xia Pingan’s divine power had broken through 420 points and became 425 points.

The changes in his body were even greater!

Xia ping felt his body being constantly washed by the powerful energy pouring in from the void. Vaguely, his body seemed to be no longer completely sealed, but a door had been opened, and some connection had been established with the universe void outside his body.

It was a wonderful feeling.

In the algae well of the secret altar, his divine power increased by 15 points. In the temple, there was an additional embossed, which was exactly the scene of Xia Pingan’s invention, the sun gonfalon, making fire to the sun. A ray of light from the sun shone on the sun gonfalon, as if it was real.

The word ‘yang’ and ‘ju’ on the mountain of golden characters lit up and appeared on the mountain.

In the room, Xia Pingan opened his eyes and looked at the time. He realized that only an hour had passed. He stood up and moved his hands and feet. He felt that his current body had entered a whole new realm and was more than twice as strong as before. When he breathed, the cells in his body seemed to be able to freely absorb a trace of energy from the outside world.

Xia Pingan threw a punch, and the air in the room exploded with a loud bang, as if a popcorn machine had blown up a cannon.

A figure flashed outside the house, and man Zixiao had already rushed outside.

I’m fine, Yingluo, ” Xia Pingan said.

Hearing Xia Pingan’s words, man Zixiao retreated again.

Xia Pingan used his long-distance vision ability to look outside.

“F * ck! It’s been more than an hour, and those demon rats and spiders are still more than 20 kilometers away from Mount yunwan. Those monsters are walking slowly on the road. It seems that they don’t have a specific target. They just came along the road to explore.”

As for the base, they were already waiting in a strict formation five kilometers away from the entrance. The two sides had not started fighting yet.

Xia Pingan’s lips twitched. There was still a lot of time, so he wasn’t in a hurry.

Xia ping ‘an took out the second realm bead that he had obtained. That realm bead also only had four divine words on it-Bo Yi Wells.

After dripping a drop of blood on it, Xia Pingan’s body was quickly wrapped up in a ball of light.

The last realm Pearl was the invention of the Yang Gu. This realm Pearl was meant to be used to dig a well. Legend had it that Bo Yi was the first person to use underground water among the Chinese ancestors. He was the first to dig a well to get water from the ground.

To Xia Pingan, this realm Pearl was quite simple. It was a free point question.

On the other hand, Bo Yi’s other achievement was more eye-catching. After he assisted Yu the Great in controlling the flood, he wrote the ” Classic of Mountains and Seas “. In addition to being the first person to build a well, he might also be the first person to complete a round-the-world Travel in ancient Huaxia. The ancient book ” Classic of Mountains and Seas ” was actually Bo Yi’s round-the-world Travel notes.

......

The fusion of the second realm Pearl was even faster. In less than ten minutes, Xia Pingan opened his eyes again. The divine power in the algae well in his temple had increased by 10 points, and the upper limit was now 435 points.

Xia Pingan used his long-distance vision ability to see that the demons had not arrived yet.
