Hey boy, are you also here for delivery? Then Long Rainbow Agency is the place!
![](4-npc2.jpg)
Hello, you have something you need us to deliver?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
How safe are you guys?
![](4-npc2.jpg)
Nonsense, everyone knows Long Rainbow Agency is the number one delivery agency in Jiang Wu. Bro, are you sure you never heard the slogan of Director Guan?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Please tell me.
![](4-npc2.jpg)
Listen up, dont get scared. Renowned all eight routes, million miles of long rainbow!
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
What a grand slogan!
![](6-Wulin_13_LP.jpg)
This looks like a kung fu school.
![](7-Wulin_14_LP.jpg)
![](8-npc3.jpg)
Is there anything you need?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
May I ask what this place is?
![](8-npc3.jpg)
This is the Heavenly Sword School.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
(Heavenly Sword School! Sounds very strong)
Are you guys enrolling students? I want to learn swordsmanship.
![](8-npc3.jpg)
My apology, we dont recruit just anyone, please leave!
![](9-Wulin_20_LP.jpg)
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
![](10-016.gif)
![](11-Wulin_21_LP.jpg)
Screw swords. Screw them.
![](12-Wulin_102_LP.jpg)
The blacksmith shop will have something better than sword!
Music: Blacksmith

![](14-extra1.jpg)
![](15-extra2.jpg)
It's the
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
(Hmm, since I decided to step into the world of Jiang Wu, I guess I should get myself a weapon.) Blacksmith, I want a weapon.
![](16-blacksmith.jpg)
What kind of weapon boy? Saber? Sword? Or Staff?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Ummm ummm Im not so sure what do you think blacksmith?
![](16-blacksmith.jpg)
Kid, you dont know what you want and you want my opinion? You must be a newbie!
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Hmm hmm the truth is, I really just began in the world of Jiang Wu. But when I become strong enough, I want to travel through Jiang Wu to help people
![](16-blacksmith.jpg)
Enough, enough, stop talking garbage. I have seen enough of idiots like you with big dreams and stuff.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Hey, I really am determined.
![](16-blacksmith.jpg)
Well you do look like youre serious, so I, Blacksmith Chang, will give you a lesson.
What weapon a person uses should be compatible with what kung fu they use. For example, the Heavenly Sword School in this city teaches swordsmanship so they obviously use swords.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Then I guess I will use a sword too.
![](16-blacksmith.jpg)
The sword is the leader of weapons, hardest to train with, not really suitable for beginners.
Not to mention sword also categorized into the light type, like the Green Bronze Sword, or the heavy type Iron Sword, etc. Theres even special made weapons designed to match with the owner's style. It is not something you can just pick up and go.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Now I understand, theres also lots of comprehension behind weaponry.
But Wow, Blacksmith Chang, you need such a big hammer to make this sword.
![](16-blacksmith.jpg)
Thats not all. In the process of blacksmithing, from mining to refining a good piece of metal, and hammering thousands of times in the smiting process, you have to keep a close eyes on the temperature, control, water quality, and even a good timing to create a good weapon.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
I would never have thought that making a weapon required so many processes. I wonder if I will be able to make my very own weapon.
![](16-blacksmith.jpg)
If you want to learn about blacksmithing, I suggest you start with mining ore and refining. But I wonder why Miner Chou didnt come lately, all the bronze ore in the storage is used up.
Hey kid, if you can go check what's up with him, and if you have some bronze ore, I will teach you smithing.
This scenario looks so familiar

Identification Skill increased, it is now 25.
![](33-Wulin_144_LP.jpg)
A show seems to be going on.
![](34-npc11.jpg)
Hey boy, you should look at Chi Lis Janken!
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Ma,am, you said her name is Chi Li?
![](34-npc11.jpg)
Yeah, she's been traveling with her dad on street performance since she was young, and now she's grown up to be so attractive that many people come to visit her .
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Street performance!? This poor little girl cant go through such a harsh life.
![](34-npc11.jpg)
What can we do, it's all her dads fault, with his dedication to master whatever that Janken Fist thing is, poor girl.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
What about her mother?
![](34-npc11.jpg)
Oh poor girl her mother died of birth complications.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Oh...I see.
![](35-npc22.jpg)
This dumb head just wont give up, and is relentlessly trying to discover the secret of this Janken Fist.
![](36-npc44.jpg)
This fist sure does look pretty impressive.
![](37-NPC-CHILI.jpg)
I still cant see what's so great about this fist I'd rather stay home to work on my knitting or something.
![](38-npc33.jpg)
Yes mister, what is it?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Little boy, whats your name? Where do you live?
![](38-npc33.jpg)
I am Little De, I live nearby. Is there anything you want? I am watching Chi Li now.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Nothing, please continue,
![](39-look-at-where-the-hand-is.jpg)
Oh ho, look at where the boys hand is.
![](40-onion29.gif)
![](38-npc33.jpg)
Yes, what is it?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Little De, what are you doing, how can you steal people's stuff? Do you know stealing is bad? I will have to tell your dad.
Jesus caught another sinner!
![](41-onion28.gif)
![](38-npc33.jpg)
Wahh please dont, if my dad knows about this, he will beat me to death. Please mister, please dont tell my dad.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Hmm alright, I wont tell, but you must never ever steal again, you understand?
![](38-npc33.jpg)
I understand, I wont do it again.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Then give back the stuff you stole.
![](38-npc33.jpg)
I didnt steal anything today, except the Wooden Chess Set Little Rens dad brought him, because I was so jealous so I stole it.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Then return the chess set to him.
![](38-npc33.jpg)
I am afraid, sir. Can you bring it back for me instead, please dont say I stole it, please!
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Very well, I will help you return it to him. Remember not to do it again.
Perception increased, it is now 12.
Obtain Wooden Chess Set.
![](42-npc00.jpg)
Oh Chi Li is so cute; my mom said I should try to make her my wife. I heard she likes to eat honey, next time I will get some for her.
![](43-npc01.jpg)
Look! This babe has such a nice body, doesn't she!
![](44-lastnpc.jpg)
Although I am old, I am still pretty active. Hic Hor! Hic Hor!
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Wonderful performance, master!
But what is this fist? Looks pretty interesting.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Watch this, it is called Janken Fist, it is the strongest kung fu in Wulin.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Janken Fist?
Translation: Janken = Japanese term for Rock, paper, scissor. Unless you all want to call it Rock Paper Scissor Fist or RPS Fist or Wild Ball Fist from Chinese.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Ignorant boy, you come to Lou Yang without knowing the Janken Fist. Did you see the Little Shrimp Hero Statue?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
I did. But what is the relation of Janken Fist to the Hero Statue?
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
How can it not have any relation, do you mean you dont know that Little Shrimps strongest kung fu was the Janken Fist?
In the previous game, Little Shrimp started with this weakest kung fu, but as a hidden bonus, if you keep training this kung fu to mastery level, it suddenly becomes the highest damaging kung fu in the whole game.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Really?
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Ya, really. Back in the days, Little Shrimp learned all sorts of kung fu, but according to the description of people who battled with him, the Janken Fist is the strongest.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Then, your kung fu must be very powerful.
![](37-NPC-CHILI.jpg)
If my dad's kung fu was strong, we wouldnt be standing here doing a street performance.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Shush it girl, I just havent mastered it yet. When I do, I will be the strongest in the world.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Oh you havent mastered it.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
What do you know kid, you think this is easy to learn?
Back in the old days when Little Shrimp disappeared, Jiang Wu was filled with people trying to learn this Janken Fist, but no one has succeeded so far. Just think, if it's so easy to learn, wont everyone become a master?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
You are right.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Although this Janken Fist is difficult to learn, I've never given it up ever since I created the Janken School.
![](37-NPC-CHILI.jpg)
Yeah, yeah, now the Janken School is just you and me.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Chi li, if you interrupt again, I will spank you when we go home.
![](37-NPC-CHILI.jpg)
Hmpf!
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
So you two are from Janken School.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Thats right. So you want to join?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Umm you want me to work on street performance too?
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Whats with that attitude, you looking down on Janken School?
You should know, I already attained the secret of the fist, just a little bit more and I will be famous throughout the world.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Oh?
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Just so you know, this Janken Fist's essence is like Rock, Paper, Scissors, its focus is on guessing the opponents mind.
Just think, if you can know the next move of the opponent every single time, then you are almost guaranteed to win.
So if you can guess what their next move is, you can easily stop it.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
That does make sense.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Let me show you my skill, and you will know how good I am. Here it comes, kid.
![](46-prepare-for-rpc.jpg)
Not shown on image: The damn hand switching like 9 moves per seconds.
![](47-onion30.gif)
![](48-Wulin_212_LP.jpg)
It's a draw, try again.
![](49-Wulin_222_LP.jpg)
After like
![](50-tu18.gif)
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Very Impressive, boy!
Perception increased, it is now 18.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Thank you, thank you.
![](51-tu03.gif)
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
[Sigh]...old river will be pushed by the new wave, kid, your talent is impressive, whats your name?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
I am Siu-Lan Wan, please call me Jesus.
![](45-NPC-Old-man-chi.jpg)
Good, good, if you keep practicing, your future will be bright!
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Thank you for your lessons.
![](52-Wulin_232_LP.jpg)
Now to visit Ren.
![](53-Wulin_233_LP.jpg)
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Hello there boy!
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Oh dear, this sharp looking kid is a deaf!
![](55-Wulin_251_LP.jpg)
Keep clicking him. The deaf thing really tricked me the first time I play it and made me missed it, but otherwise, it's the shortest fetch quest ever.
![:golfclap:](../Smilies/emot-golfclap.gif)
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Ah! Yes, Cannon three go to five.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
You are not deaf!
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Who said I was deaf, I am Ren, and I just too focused on playing chess.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Quite impressive for you to know Xiangqi(Chinese Chess) at such an young age.
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Yeah! When I was five, my dad brought me to watch people play chess at the White Horse Temple, I became interested. Its like a commander bringing his army to war, and the fate of the battle depends on my own hand. I want to become a commander to win many battles when I grow up.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
(Such a big enthusiasm, I cant lose to him!)
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Mister, you like chess? How about a round?
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
This I I cant, I dont know how chess works
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Thats so unfortunate! Chess is very interesting, I don't know why you adults don't like to play like my dad. Speaking of my dad, I recall he bought me a Wooden Chess Set, but somehow I lost it. Because of that, my dad been scolding me lately.
I really want another one, but Im sure he will refuse.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
1) Ren, heres another wooden chess set for you.
2) Dont feel bad, Ren.
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
It really is a wooden chess set, thank you mister.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Be careful next time, dont lose it again.
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Mister, how about a game, playing by myself is pretty boring.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
But I don't know how
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Is very easy, I will teach you, please play with me, its so boring playing myself.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Alright.
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Okay, listen up mister, this chess has seven types of units, differentiated by general, guard, elephant, chariot, horse, cannon, their movement is so and so this is that
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
I see.
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Then lets begin the game I move here, your turn.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
I move here
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
move here move there
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
move here move there
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Umm move here, I win
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Umm I lose, Ren you are amazing.
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Mister you're just rushing too much, how about this, I will teach you the chess poem, then you will not be so weak next time we play.
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
What poem, please dont say it too fast.
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
Dont worry, you just need to listen.
One: Cannot rush for victory,
Two: Must stay calm,
Three: Attack and also defend equally,
Four: Must sacrifice,
Five: Give up small for big,
Six: Escape during danger,
Seven: Dont over focus
Eight: Move in sync with others
Nine: You are well defended if you are strong
Ten: Take weak with weak
![](5-Jesus-Asian-Face.jpg)
Umm, I see, this and this
I have memorized it. Next time I will have my revenge.
![](54-chessnpc.jpg)
I await for your revenge.

Sixth schoolbrother, Senior schoolbrothers swordsmanship is getting faster and faster, I get dizzy just by looking at it.
Schoolbrother is one of those honorifics like jūn, láng, -Laozi, etc. that don't exist in English and theres no word to describe it.
![](64-bluenpc.jpg)
Eighth schoolbrother, you should learn more from Senior schoolbrother when you have the time. His Mad Wind Sword style is already at masters level, not many in Jiangwu can match up with it, so if I cant, then theres no way you can.
![](64-bluenpc.jpg)
From what I see, next years Juvenile Hero Tournament will be our Heavenly Sword Schools victory.
All depends on senior schoolbrother.

Oh, You two dont tease me now; the people at Wudong over there will make jokes about it. Please pardon their behavior, Mr. Just.
