Chapter 18: Casting Master Wen Gongliang
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Shuyue slowly stepped forward and pulled the corner of the short-shirted man's clothes, "Uncle, can't this thing really be done?
Seeing that Xiao Shuyue still didn't leave, the short-shirted man pulled himself, and the short-shirted man sighed lightly: "Child, this is not a joke, I can't risk eating prison for this thing of yours!"
Xiao Shuyue lowered her eyes, and there was a look of disappointment and depression in her eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The man in the short shirt looked at Xiao Shuyue as a child in front of him, as if he was about to burst into tears if he said one more word, and the man in the short shirt waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, I'm really afraid of you, in this way, I will tell you one thing, but you are not allowed to tell others!"
As soon as she heard that there was still a little turn for the better, Xiao Shuyue immediately came to her senses, seeing Xiao Shuyue's instantaneous change in expression, if she hadn't seen that Xiao Shuyue was indeed a child, she would have really thought that she had been deceived.
The man in the short shirt lowered his voice, and whispered in Xiao Shuyue's ear: "In the woods on the outskirts, there is a perennial hunter named Wen, I heard that in the early years, he was a famous sword-casting master in the imperial capital, and he built weapons for the knights on the rivers and lakes all the year round, I think you are also a kind of weapon, if you can build it for you through his hands, you will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort!"
Xiao Shuyue's eyes lit up, and her crystal eyes looked at the man in the short shirt, and there was an indescribable excitement in her eyes.
"Uncle is talking about the great foundry master Wen Gongliang, the master Wen who forged the dragon slaying sword in the past?" Xiao Shuyue hurriedly asked.
The man in the short shirt looked at Xiao Shuyue's bright eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little different, "I didn't expect that your little girl still has some knowledge, this Master Wen is a big myth in my casting world, and most people don't know his name, how did you know it?
Hearing the doubts and questions of the man in the short shirt, Xiao Shuyue didn't have much nervousness, but said with a light smile: "I have a master who likes to study this aspect of culture and history, and admires Master Wen very much, and has always wanted to meet this Master Wen, so I often hear it in the master's ears, I heard that when Master Wen Gongliang was casting the Dragon Slaying Sword, he was forced to retreat to the mountains and forests because he violated the laws of nature, and now if I go rashly, Master Wen is afraid that he will not cast it for me!"
The man in the short shirt nodded thoughtfully and said, "Why do you think I want you to go to the suburban forest?" I heard that Master Wen has been looking for good weapon drawings over the years, although this weapon of yours looks simple now, but if you want to make it, just the Wang Family Iron Shop may also need to spend a lot of time to study the production method of your weapon, but Master Wen's words may be much simpler, but your drawings may attract Master Wen's interest, if you are interested, you can let your father try it!"
Xiao Shuyue's face was happy, and she respectfully saluted the man in the short shirt, and said with a smile: "Thank you, uncle!"
The man in the short shirt sighed and said, "You don't have to thank me, the way of the world now...... Can you help a little, I also see that you are still a child, if it is your father, I will not reveal half of Master Wen's whereabouts no matter what. ”
"Thank you, uncle!" Knowing that this man was telling the truth, he was also a little child, and kept pretending to be pitiful in front of him, if it weren't for this, this uncle would definitely not say it.
"But...... If you really want Master Wen to make this weapon for you, I have a request, and you may need to agree to it then. The man in the short shirt stared at Xiao Shuyue, his expression becoming serious.
Xiao Shuyue was stunned when she heard this, "What's the matter?"
"Anyone in the iron casting industry wants to see Master Wen's handwriting, if Master Wen really casts this weapon, I want to borrow it, can you!" said the man in the short shirt very sincerely.
Xiao Shuyue said with a smile: "It's okay, this one is really done, and I can also agree to this matter on behalf of my father." ”
"Kid, I hope you remember this incident, and ......"
"Uncle, please speak!" Xiao Shuyue said respectfully.
"Master Wen has a strange temperament, I have only heard that he is in Ningyang City over the years, and there are no longer a few people who come to look for him, even some people have come to the capital, but if Master Wen doesn't want to see him, you can't force it!" When he said this, the man in the short shirt also had a little more sincerity.
Xiao Shuyue was puzzled: "How did this Master Wen know that these people were looking for him, and how could he hide for so many years?"
The man in the short shirt shook his head and laughed: "This is going to ask Master Wen!"
Nodding, Xiao Shuyue smiled and said, "Thank you, uncle, Yue'er will go back here and tell her father the news, if it is successful, I will thank my uncle for the clue!" After speaking, before the man in the short shirt could react, Xiao Shuyue ran out quickly.
From behind Xiao Shuyue, a man's rough voice said, "You slow down!"
Xiao Shuyue answered loudly, and left the Wangjia iron shop quickly.
I didn't expect that there would be such a big harvest as soon as I came out today, the methods of collecting money in the city lord's mansion were known to me, but the most important thing was Master Wen, this is a legendary figure, in modern times, that is a living figure in the textbook, such an existence.
If someone is famous for eternity because of the history books of later generations, then this Master Wen can be called a model figure in the textbook, a living specimen.
Otherwise, how could Xiao Shuyue know about the existence of Wen Gongliang? These are all things written in the villain books outside, these things, half-truths and half-truths, but it is said that this Wen Gongliang thing, nine times out of ten, is a true account, at that time, for this living specimen, Xiao Shuyue also specially read this book several times.
The admiration is also beyond words, compared with those modern great men and the like, Xiao Shuyue sincerely admires Wen Gongliang.
Xiao Shuyue still remembers a ballad about Wen Gongliang in the villain's book.
"When I was young, I left home to learn technology, and when I grew up, my parents died.
The single-minded caster has no fame, and once the dragon is slain, the world is shocked.
However, he said that the dragon was not a human race, and forced Wen Shi to retreat from the splendid road.
The world sings the ballad of slaying the dragon, and there is no shadow in the world. ”
This is about Wen Gongliang's life, he went out to learn technology since he was a child, and returned to his hometown as an adult but heard that his parents had long since died, and after grief, he made up his mind to cast weapons wholeheartedly, and cast many weapons, but he did not have any reputation, just because Wen Gongliang was harsh on the production of weapons, so the conditions and discipline that could be formed were very few, which also created Wen Gongliang and did not have any popularity.
But who would have thought that Wen Gongliang was recruited by the royal family into the royal weapons manufacturing department, dedicated to building weapons for the royal family, saying that it was to build weapons, but it was simply a smash, and there was no status in it, but Wen Gongliang did not give up because he wanted to create a peerless weapon, so he did not give up, and used his convenience in the weapons manufacturing department to secretly manufacture weapons, and did not think that he once achieved the dragon sword, it is said that when it was manufactured, there was a buzzing dragon chant, and he refused to bow his head even when he saw the emperor, and finally Wen Gongliang poured his own blood on the dragon sword, so that the dragon sword could live in peace。
But because of this, the royal family felt that Wen Gongliang's ability to cast weapons was too terrifying, so he made up Wen Gongliang to create a non-human weapon, and he had to wash his hands in a golden basin, so there are still rumors about Wen Gongliang among the people, but Wen Gongliang has disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, and no one can find him anymore!
What surprised Xiao Shuyue was...... Wen Gongliang actually lived in seclusion in Ningyang City, if Wen Gongliang really agreed to help him make weapons, then Xiao Shuyue's weapons could be regarded as a rare weapon in the world.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shuyue almost couldn't hold back her thoughts, and immediately wanted to go to the suburban forest to find the casting master Wen Gongliang!
