"Of course, I guarantee you will be surprised." Lin Jiuxi confidently led her to the martial arts training ground.
First, a fifteen-year-old boy was called out. It took less than three days from the first time he touched a crossbow to the time he could hit the target every time.
The young boy raised the crossbow, pressed the trigger in an official manner, and fired the crossbow.
What really surprised Linglong was not the boy's accuracy, but the fact that he had almost no time to react and continued to shoot the next nine arrows.
"How is this done?" Linglong, who is well-informed, couldn't help but walk forward quickly after seeing such technology.
She reached out and took the crossbow arrow from the boy's hand.
The young man was no match for the opponent in terms of strength, but he was still very angry that his beloved bow and arrow was snatched away by someone.
So naturally, he still asked Linglong to help contact other sects and ask them to contribute a little. Or to buy, as long as the price was acceptable, Lin Jiuxi was willing to agree.

"You are like trying to plant flowers but they don't bloom, but planting willows by accident and they grow into shade trees. You are afraid of losing what others are longing for, and you don't know what to do."
Not daring to laugh secretly, he quickly explained to Linglong: "Auntie Linglong, that's not the case. You must not stop contacting me. Two thousand swords are really not enough!"
But two thousand swords are not enough for so many people.
Now, there are more than 9,000, almost 10,000 people.
Even though there were quite a few gold leaves, she had spent only one-tenth or twelve-tenth of them in just one month.
Linglong also treasured it very much and looked at it carefully.
Linglong felt it was difficult to praise her anymore because she saw how sincere she was.
It's really not her fault. If it weren't for the 50 million gold leaves she got from Wuyou Palace before, she wouldn't be able to afford so many people.
"Look, I was originally told that there were about 7,000 people. Even if I didn't count them carefully, I could tell with a rough estimate. There are not 7,000 people here, not even 5,000." Linglong shook her head slightly dissatisfied and guessed, "These people probably ran away because they heard the news that General Lin was coming. I told you, it's useless for you to be nice to them. They won't support you at all. They are all cowards."
Lin Jiuxi's smile suddenly turned into a gloomy one.
Seeing that it was the boss who came to say something nice, Xiao Wang had to take a step back, but he still stared closely at the crossbow in Linglong's hand.
Linglong sighed: "In that case, I have lost this bet. You didn't win much either."
Otherwise, if we wait until people arrive before moving, their mobility issues may affect the speed.
"There's nothing I can do. Who told them to say that humility is a virtue?" Lin Jiuxi spread his hands and looked helpless. The helpless expression on his face made Linglong laugh.
Lin Jiuxi then deeply realized that Xuanwu was also very powerful.
As the number of people has increased in recent days, the food that had been stored before is no longer enough to feed so many people for two months.
"This is not all my idea. There was a record in an ancient book that someone could make a crossbow that could fire ten rounds in a row. I thought, isn't this what I urgently need? So I asked the old carpenter in the Taoyuan Gang to work with me to figure it out." Lin Jiuxi did not take credit for himself. He just concealed Zhuge Liang's name and told Linglong everything else.
"But that's good. You won't need those swords that often. I was thinking of helping you contact other sects, but now it seems that they won't be of any use."
She immediately praised him: "As expected of Bai Xiaodie's daughter, you have a smart brain. You've never touched a bow or crossbow before, so how come you can think of so many things? I don't know how many times I've used this thing, and I only know where the disadvantages are, but I didn't think of improving it this way."
And there are indeed not more than 7,000 people here, because other refugees from Hezhou, after hearing the reputation of the Taoyuan Gang, actually came one after another.
"Girl, you are smart, so why be so modest? It's not straightforward to imitate those pedantic old men."
Speaking of this, Lin Jiuxi himself still feels distressed.
"But, but the boss said it was given to me! I practiced well, so she gave it to me." The boy was so anxious that he almost cried.
She thought it was just a casual remark by Prince Mu and didn't take it seriously.
"I went to find Xuanwu two days ago and asked His Royal Highness Prince Mu to help me get some swords. He agreed immediately, but before the things arrived, he helped me spread my reputation." Lin Jiuxi sighed heavily.
"Isn't that the case? They think there are not enough people, and I really can't afford to support them. I'm just hoping that my dad can come quickly and resolve the matter. I'll accept it whether I win or lose." Lin Jiuxi lamented.
Linglong was too lazy to argue with the young man, and just rolled her eyes at him coldly: "I gave you the bows and crossbows for the Taoyuan Gang. Did you make any of them?"
"There really are so many people, you're not kidding me, are you?" Linglong was quite surprised and a little unconvinced.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to figure it out by myself."
"This is mine!" the boy said as if claiming his sovereignty.
"Don't be anxious, Xiao Wang. Aunt Linglong is just taking a look at it and will return it to you later." Seeing the two of them making a fuss and neither of them willing to give in, Lin Jiuxi had to step forward to smooth things over.
Lin Jiuxi disagreed with this. It was true that Linglong lost, but she was a complete winner. How could she say that she didn't win much? "What do you mean, Aunt Linglong?"
Linglong couldn't describe the feeling, and finally just patted Lin Jiuxi on the shoulder.
She was a martial artist and had a good understanding of weapons. After watching for a while, she finally understood how Lin Jiuxi had modified this thing.
Linglong waved her finger and pointed at the empty houses.
It's really like spending money like water, it's heartbreaking to watch.
When mentioning Wuyou Palace, one can't help but want Wuyou Palace's money. Of course, it would be best to take all of it.
Lin Jiuxi couldn't get any news about Wuyou Palace from other places, but the Linglong in front of him was the head of Linglong Pavilion.
Linglong Pavilion is the best at finding out all kinds of information.
"Aunt Linglong, how much do you know about Linglong Pavilion? And who is Fan Wuyou?" She was quite curious about Fan Wuyou. What kind of terrifying person could scare Ji Weiyu like that?
