Volume 1 Floating Islands in the Sea Chapter 126 The Blacksmith of the Royal Capital
The night would not fall, but the people of the royal capital had no intention of parting, for it would be a sleepless night, and the royal capital under the night would be more beautiful than the day.
"Quick, Grandpa Li will rest later. ”
Zhang Ying trotted in front of Su Yan, taking a carriage in the royal capital was obviously an extremely unwise choice, and it was difficult to reach the destination before dark under the crowd. The fragments of the broken sword had already been stored in the storage by Su Yan, and at this moment, Su Yan's injuries had not healed, and he endured the pain and followed behind Zhang Ying.
"Are you alright? ”
Zhang Ying saw Su Yan's slightly painful expression, the moment the broken sword shattered just now, it was obvious that Su Yan had been hit by Fang Yunshan's move, and Su Yan had been holding on, and it was obviously a little unsupportable at this moment, but this was not the time for him to recover.
"I'm fine, let's go. Su Yan barely showed a smile and paced forward, while Zhang Ying stood in place, her outstretched hand in the air as if it was stiff, and she didn't know how to take it back.
"Oh. The hand hanging in the air was retracted, and Zhang Ying walked in front of Su Yan again, her eyes began to dim a little at some point.
In the royal capital, in addition to all kinds of vendors selling all kinds of novel gadgets on the street, Su Yan also noticed that there were spiritual cultivators selling pill weapons and the like, Su Yan could see at a glance the inferior quality of that pill, and even that weapon, I am afraid that it would not be able to withstand the blow of his three-percent spiritual power.
There were neons everywhere, Su Yan followed Zhang Ying through this royal capital, Su Yan was curious: "Why is there so much light in this royal capital?"
Zhang Ying pursed her lips and smiled, "Because in a few days it will be the seventieth birthday of Emperor Cangyang, not to mention the celebration of the whole country, the royal capital will naturally celebrate with the whole city." ”
"Let's go, I'll take you to the night market later. ”
Zhang Ying stood in front and urged.
The two walked from the bustling street to a secluded alley, except for a few pedestrians in the alley, it was the soldiers patrolling around, they just bowed slightly towards Su Yan and turned away, the aura exuded by Su Yan told them that Su Yan was not an ordinary person, and naturally it was not within their jurisdiction.
Zhang Ying stopped in front of an extremely quaint shop, which seemed out of place with the rest of the shops, and even had no sign, so how could this be a business.
"Qiang Qiang Qiang"
There was a huge sound of striking iron in the shop, which looked unremarkable, but Su Yan could hear that the sound of each hammer was extremely neat, without a trace of noise, as if every hammer falling was exactly the same force, and it would take at least decades of tempering to have such superb iron-striking skills, as well as ultra-high control over arm strength.
"Aunt Zhang, the iron hooves are ready, Uncle Zhang's horse must be fine with this iron hoof. A fat middle-aged man stood in the shop, talking to an elderly middle-aged woman.
"Thank you. The middle-aged woman took the iron hoof, nodded with satisfaction, and was about to take out the spirit jade from the package, but was stopped by the slightly chubby man, "Master said not to accept spirit jade, so as not to make Master angry." ”
"Good, good. ”
Aunt Zhang said three good things in a row, and looked at the slightly chubby man with satisfaction, but at this moment Su Yan set her eyes on him.
"It's closed, it's closed, if you have anything to do, come back tomorrow. The chubby man waved his hand, apparently he had no affection for the so-called men and women in fine clothes.
"Come and find an old friend. Su Yan smiled, and there was no change in his voice.
The slightly chubby man set his eyes on Su Yan, and with a "huh" sound, he walked out of the shop in an instant, "Senior Brother Su?"
"Big brother. Su Yan had a smile on his face.
The slightly chubby man was not a bystander, it was Yun Wei who escaped from Chongxiao Sect that day.
Yun Wei fled all the way west after leaving Chongxiao Sect that day, and heard a lot of stories about Chongxiao Sect and that mysterious boy along the way, and he knew that Su Yan was still alive and strong enough.
"Look, the hair is gray. Yun Wei shook his head and patted Su Yan on the shoulder.
"Ahem, cough, cough"
Su Yan let Yun Wei shoot like this, and a mouthful of blood spurted out instantly, the power of the golden gun was not weak, and the injuries caused to Su Yan finally recurred at this moment.
"Senior Brother Su!"
"Brother Su!"
Yun Wei and Zhang Ying spoke almost at the same time, Yun Wei bowed slightly at her, and the two carried Su Yan into the store.
"I... I'm fine. Su Yan reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "Senior Brother Yun, it's great to see you here." ”
"Don't talk yet, take this pill first. Yun Wei took out a pill from the storage container and stuffed it into Su Yan's mouth, the pill was still obtained by Yun Wei in Chongxiao Sect, and it had a great effect on the recovery of injuries.
There was a crimson light flashing in the shop, and an old man was leaning on his body, constantly beating a piece of red-hot iron, his strength and accuracy were impeccable, but Su Yan did not detect a trace of spiritual power fluctuations from this old man. How many people can control the power so much by ordinary people? Not to mention that the person is still a gray-haired old man, which suddenly made Su Yan awe-inspired.
"Awei, you brought a guest. ”
"Z"
The old man put the piece of iron into the water, and suddenly the smoke filled the entire shop, and the old man turned sideways slightly and looked at Su Yan and Zhang Ying.
"This female doll old husband knows, it is the girl of the Zhang family. ”
"Where did this kid come from?"
I saw Yun Wei arch his hand towards the old man and said, "Master, this is the Senior Brother Su Yan Su that I often mention to you. ”
Yun Wei looked at Su Yan again and said, "This is my master, Elder." ”
Su Yan arched his hand at the old man and said, "Boy Su Yan, please meet the seniors." ”
After the fall of the Chongxiao Sect, it was understandable for Yun Wei to choose another teacher, but Su Yan didn't understand why Yun Wei was willing to be a blacksmith.
Elder Li looked at this Su Yan, with a bit of fierceness in his eyes, and did not speak, Yun Wei saw the clue in Elder Li's eyes, and said, "Why is Master like this?"
Elder Li didn't speak, and he didn't even have any interest in looking at Su Yan, he turned around and walked towards the furnace, continuing to beat his iron.
"Master's personality is like this, sometimes a little weird, but very good to people. Yun Wei had an embarrassed smile on his face, and at this moment he couldn't even guess why the master showed such eyes.
"By the way, I don't know what Senior Brother Su is doing this time?"
Su Yan had only recovered now, and in the old man's fierce gaze, there seemed to be an extremely powerful force, constantly pulling his whole person, and he couldn't escape. Su Yan was quite puzzled as to why an ordinary person would give him such a terrifying feeling......
"Oh, it's for my sword. Su Yan took out the fragment of the sword from the storage, this sword Yun Wei naturally recognized, but he didn't know that Su Yan was so attached to this sword.
"Senior Brother Yun, do you know where the Qinghong Sword is?" Su Yan looked at Yun Wei, only to see that Yun Wei's face had changed a little.
"There is no urgency. Yun Wei was about to pick up the fragment, but he heard the old man shouting angrily, "I can't fix this sword!"
Su Yan frowned slightly, and even Zhang Ying's face on the side changed a little, this is not the case on weekdays, he does not accept the spiritual jade of the poor, and only accepts the spiritual jade of the princes and nobles, and he will not refuse directly without looking at it like now.
"This sword ......" Yun Wei was about to speak, but was interrupted by Elder Li again, "If you can't repair it, you can't repair it." ”
In Yun Wei's opinion, this broken sword is at most a mid-level weapon, it is not difficult for Li Lao, even if it is a mortal weapon, it will become an artifact in the hands of Li Lao, let alone a mid-level weapon.
"Since the old gentleman is so dissatisfied with Zaixia, then I will wait to leave. Su Yan's voice was extremely cold, as if he had changed from a different person just now.
"Get out!" Li Lao snorted coldly, the hammer in his hand fell to the ground, only to hear a "bang", striking on the iron, and sparks suddenly flew everywhere.
"Old-timers, that's too much. Su Yan sneered, "If it weren't for the fact that you are Senior Brother Yun's master, I would have burned this shop on fire a long time ago." ”
"Huh. Elder Li turned to face Su Yan and said, "Violent people, murderous nature, I will never help the abuse." ”
"Hahaha"
Su Yan laughed, "Do you know who I killed?"
"What does it have to do with me?"
"Qiang Qiang Qiang"
The hammer in the old man's hand fell again, and he didn't even look at Su Yan.
Su Yan wanted to leave, but was stopped by Yun Wei, and at this moment Yun Wei had a little helplessness on his face, and said: "Master is like this, I can't persuade him." ”
"Let me build it for you, I'm your brother. ”
Yun Wei gave Su Yan a positive look, although he hadn't studied under this old man for long, he was confident that he would restore this broken sword to its original appearance, and even, stronger!
"Walk the talk. ”
Elder Li's voice came again, with a bit of sternness in his tone, "If you insult my name as a blacksmith, you can leave too." ”
Yun Wei was ready to leave, but who knew that Elder Li's attitude changed instantly.
Old Li was reluctant to help Su Yan, but Yun Wei was his only apprentice, and if Yun Wei just left, it would be too difficult to find another apprentice with such a high talent.
The old man's face was dyed red by the firelight, and there was a sense of confusion in his eyes, and with a "bang", the hammer was crooked, only to hear a "bang", and the iron piece fell.
"Master. Yun Wei's eyes were full of anxiety.
"It's old, it's old. ”
Elder Li smiled bitterly, turned around and walked towards the room.
Li Lao was extremely disgusted with building weapons, Yun Wei once witnessed with his own eyes that Fang Yuanshan, the general of the royal capital, had sent a broken weapon, and Li Lao blasted Fang Yuanshan and his subordinates out without saying a word.
Fang Yuanshan didn't dare to be angry with Li Lao, you must know that in this Cangfeng royal capital, all kinds of novel gadgets of various princes and nobles were created by Li Lao. The fame of the old man is even heard of by the current Cangyang Emperor.
Coupled with the arrival of Yun Wei, all kinds of wood carvings and other things make the shop more famous, and there are often people in the palace who want to let the old man move the shop to the bustling Wangdu Street, but he is rejected by the old man again and again.
"Then we'll go. ”
Su Yan arched his hand towards Yun Wei, he looked at Zhang Ying on the side, Zhang Ying obviously didn't expect Su Yan to know this old apprentice.
"On the day the broken sword is reforged, remember to invite me to drink. Yun Wei had a smile on his face, he smiled extremely reluctantly, he hadn't seen him for many days, Su Yan's hair turned white, what kind of suffering Su Yan had gone through, so that he would be like this.
"By the way, does Senior Brother know the whereabouts of Senior Sister?" Su Yan looked at Yun Wei.
"I don't know. ”
Yun Wei lowered his head.
Su Yan didn't ask again, and walked out of the store with Zhang Ying.
Su Yan couldn't tell that Yun Wei was lying, but obviously Yun Wei didn't want to tell him.
