I'm in the world of Xianjian

Chapter 106 Looking for Ore

Murong Ziying brought Lin Shen and others to a room. As soon as Lin Shen and others entered, they felt a heat wave coming towards them.

Anu said, "What's going on? Why is it so hot?" Several people looked in the direction of the heat wave and found a furnace that was 8 meters high and 6 meters in diameter.

Murong Ziying took two steps forward and said, "This is the sword forging room in the Sword Tomb, and that furnace is used to forge swords."

Li Xiaoyao said, "This is the first time I've seen such a big furnace."

Anu said, "I guess the biggest furnace you've ever seen is probably the one in the blacksmith shop in town."

Murong Ziying pointed to an anvil and said, "Put the sword on it."

Lin Yueru nodded and placed the broken sword on it. Murong Ziying cast a spell to check it, then searched around in the sword-making room, writing something down as he searched.

Lin Shen and his companions didn't know what he was doing, so they didn't intervene rashly.

After a while, Murong Ziying came over and said to Lin Yueru, "Miss Lin, there is something I am really sorry about."

Lin Yueru said, "Master Murong, what's wrong?"

Murong Ziying said, "There are not enough materials in the warehouse to repair the broken sword, so I have to ask you to go and get the materials so that I can repair it."

Li Xiaoyao said, "Just use whatever is in the warehouse, isn't that enough?"

Murong Ziying shook his head and said, "No! The material of each sword is different. If we rashly use other materials to repair it, it may even be worse than the original."

Li Xiaoyao was surprised and said, "It's so serious!"

Zhao Linger said, "Let's go find what materials the immortal needs."

Murong Ziying said, "Please remember: half a catty of Tianhe Stone, four ounces of Celestine Stone, half a catty of Basalt Iron Rock, three ounces of Ice Soul, three ounces of Kunwu Sand, and four ounces of Thunder Soul Crystal."

While Li Xiaoyao and the other three were still memorizing it in their heads, Lin Shen took out a small notebook and a ballpoint pen and started writing it down. After he finished writing, he read it again for fear of making mistakes, and Murong Ziying nodded.

Li Xiaoyao was stunned when he saw the pen and notebook in Lin Shen's hand. He said, "Anos, what are you using? I have never seen it before. And I don't recognize the words written on it."

Anu said, "You can't be illiterate." After that, Anu took it and looked at it, but she didn't recognize it either.

Li Xiaoyao said, "I'm dumbfounded by what you said about me."

Lin Shen said, "These are the pens and characters used in our world. I got used to them and forgot to change them back."

Afterwards, Lin Shen wrote another version in traditional Chinese and gave it to Lin Yueru.

Murong Ziying said, "Lazuli and Tianhe Stone can be found in Qingluan Peak, and the other four can be bought in Boxian Town."

Zhao Linger said, "If that's the case, then we can just go and see Yuntian River on the way."

Lin Shen said with a wicked smile, "Murong Ziying, you didn't mean to go to Qingluan Peak under the pretext of looking for ore."

Murong Ziying said, "You're overthinking it. It just so happens that the stock is insufficient."

Lin Shen said, "I was overthinking it. Let's go now. (Looking at Lin Yueru) Yueru, you should stay here. The four of us can go."

Lin Yueru shook her head and said, "No, I'll go with you. I can't just stand by and watch you guys repair my sword."

Li Xiaoyao said, "But you don't have a sword, what will you do if you encounter a strong enemy?"

Lin Yueru took out the whip and said, "I still have the whip and the ring that Anos gave me. I won't drag you down."

Li Xiaoyao wanted to continue to stop him, but was stopped by Lin Shen, who said, "Yueru, if you want to go, let's go together."

After saying that, Lin Shen used his ring to conjure up a sheathed sword and handed it to Lin Yueru.

Lin Yueru said, "Anos, don't worry. I know what I am doing."

Zhao Linger said, "Brother Anos, where should we go first?"

Lin Shen thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Boxian Town first. After all, there are four kinds of ores that can be purchased directly."

Anu said, "Then let's set off quickly."

Lin Shen looked at Murong Ziying and said, "I'll leave Yueru's broken sword in your care. We'll try to get back as quickly as possible."

Murong Ziying nodded and said, "Take care on your journey."

Lin Shen snapped his fingers and left with Zhao Linger and a few others using the Leaping Technique.

When Lin Shen and his companions opened their eyes, they saw yellow sand everywhere. Li Xiaoyao said, "Anos, where did you take us?"

After the wind and sand cleared, Lin Shen said, "I remember this is Boxian Town. Since it's in the northwest desert, dust or sandstorms are not uncommon."

Li Xiaoyao said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? But it's true. I haven't been to the desert yet."

Lin Shen said, "There are many customs and practices you haven't seen."

Zhao Linger said, "How do people here live?"

Lin Shen said, "These people live near water and grass, and when they go out to do business, camels are an indispensable means of transportation. As for food... I guess Ling'er might suffer a bit."

Lin Yueru said, "What happened to Sister Ling'er?"

Lin Shen said, "Yueru, you forgot that Ling'er follows the Shuiyue Palace to practice Taoism and doesn't eat meat.

But there's very little vegetation here, and there's basically no vegetarian food. It's all meat or milk, so I guess Ling'er probably has nothing to eat."

Zhao Linger said, "I'm fine, Brother Anos. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Besides, when traveling in the martial arts world, just eat and drink what you have. Don't be so particular."

Lin Yueru said, "You still remember this little thing."

Li Xiaoyao said, "That's not right. Last time in Yangzhou, when we had fried rice, there was meat in it. I saw Ling'er eating it with great relish."

Lin Yueru said, "You pig brain, didn't you see that Ling'er didn't want to offend Anos? It's rare for him to take everyone to eat Yangzhou specialties."

Lin Shen thought: Actually, I was so busy looking for Yangzhou delicacies that I forgot that Ling'er is a vegetarian. It was only because there are not many vegetables in the northwest region that I remembered this.

Lin Shen coughed twice and then said, "Let's see if we can find a place that sells baked naan. We can make do with that."

Anu said, "What is naan?"

Lin Shen said, "Just think of it as baking a pancake."

Li Xiaoyao said, "If you want to bake flatbread, then bake flatbread. And also bake naan."

Lin Shen said, "It's just a local name."

Anu pointed forward and said, "Look, there is a small town over there. Is it the Boxian Town we are looking for?"

Lin Shen looked in the direction he was looking and saw a small, circular town surrounded by earthen walls, with a river running through it. A dirt bridge connected the two banks of the river. Lin Shen said, "It looks like it should be."

Anu was about to run over there, but Lin Shen grabbed her and said, "I'd better take a closer look, just in case it's a mirage."

Li Xiaoyao said, "Mirage, what does it mean?"

Lin Yueru said, "I seem to have heard of this. It's said that in desert areas, there's a strange phenomenon where distant scenery is projected onto nearby areas. It can make people lose their way in the desert."

Lin Shen nodded and said, "Yueru, you know a lot."

Lin Yueru said, "My father has met several merchants in the northwest, and he has heard about it from them."

Anu said, "How could this happen?"

Lin Shen closed his eyes and used his Observation Haki to sense the town's situation. He confirmed that the town before him was real and said, "I've just checked. This town is real. Let's go there quickly before the dust storm comes again."

So the group entered the town.
