Looking at the Tang knife in his hand, he stroked it gently, remembering the bits and pieces of the past. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Nine years ago, I had just retired from the SWAT team, and I was at a low point.

Thinking of living in an unfamiliar environment and letting myself forget about those unpleasantness, there was a big problem in this trip.

I remember when I was passing through a mountainous area, I saw a fireball that fell from the sky. That's right, just smashed down. Smashed into the back of a small hill about two hundred meters away from me. The force of the impact shook my car off the ground. Then it fell, and it kept shaking, and I felt like my car was falling apart, and then the rocks on the hill were sliding down like mudslides. I slammed on the gas pedal with my right foot, and as soon as I rushed past the area where the rockfall had fallen, the car broke down.

I hurriedly looked up, and luckily, I was on the side of the hill. So no, the bigger rocks fell, but the baseball-sized rocks kept crashing into my car, a good car, and smashed me to the surface of the moon, full of potholes.

It was a long time before the stones stopped falling. I looked out of the smashed car window as if I had just experienced a great earthquake, and I couldn't help but sweep over the place where something had just fallen from the sky, and found that it was like a pure land, an irregular oval, and there was only an oval stone of the color of steel. When I looked back, I found that in a strange place, there was such a big impact just now, and after such a long time of earth and stone rain, there was no change around the stone, and even the ground of the stone was still flat.

My curiosity drove me to get out of the car and walk over. When I got to the front of me, I looked carefully, this stone seemed to be really steel, and suddenly I remembered the golden hoop stick used by Sun Wukong, this can't be also meteoric iron. Looking at this steel ball, which is about half a meter long and about 20 centimeters wide, I am depressed, such a small thing, the impact is so big, and it seems that nothing has changed.

I went back to the car, took out my sapper shovel, and went back to the steel ball. I unwound the sapper shovel and pointed the serrated side towards the ball, then slowly lifted it, took a deep breath, and slashed it down.

There was a burst of sparks, and when I raised the sapper shovel again, I saw that the side with the serrations had broken off the upper ones, so I switched sides, aimed the side with the blade of the axe, and slashed it again.

The wooden handles of the sapper shovels were broken, and I looked at the sapper shovels that had fallen to the side and saw that the whole shovel was deformed. The corners of my mouth twitched, and I picked up the steel ball, and put it in front of my eyes to look closely, and I found that the steel ball seemed to have no weight, and there was not a single serration on it, or the marks left by the axe blade. I realized that I had found a treasure.

When I returned to the car with it, I remembered that the car was broken. I could only get out of the car, free up a backpack, and load the steel ball into it. But it's strange to say, I didn't feel a little weight when I held it, but when I put it into the backpack, the backpack couldn't bear it, and the fast steel ball crushed the backpack, and when it fell to the ground, it made a sound of heavy objects falling to the ground

I looked at the stone stupidly, speechless for a while, you are quite willful, you can't hold it. Forget it, just hug it, it doesn't weigh much anyway.

And just like that, one person, one ball, the hike began. After walking for a long time, it was getting dark outside, and I was still hesitating where to spend the night.

There is no way, I can only insist on walking forward to see if there are any people, if not, I can only find a random place to sleep. I walked more than 200 meters, it was already very dark, even by the moonlight I couldn't see anything two meters away, but fortunately it was summer, I found a place, ate some dry food, and fell asleep against a big stone holding a steel ball.

The next day, when the sun was just out of the way, I woke up. After looking at the steel ball that still hadn't changed, he shook his head, stood up, patted the soil on his body, walked to a dense weed, patted the weeds with the palms of his two hands, stained it with dew, washed his face, and looked at the only two bottles of mineral water left.

Eat something casually, look at the endless mountains, it's better to go out today, or meet people, add it, and ask others what kind of ball this is, so weird.

I held the steel ball and kept walking forward, and I didn't go far when I saw a person walking towards me in the distance. Finally I met someone, I hurried over, and before I could say anything, the man stared at the steel ball in my arms, "It's it" and looked up at me, "You found it from there"

I looked at the inexplicable person in front of me, and I didn't know how to say for a while, "Uncle, my car is broken, and I don't know the road for the first time, can you tell me where the nearest city and town here is, it's not far away"

The man gave me a strange look, probably because I didn't answer his question, he didn't want to see me, "As for it, didn't he answer your question?" "Uncle, this stone, I found it in front, where is my car broken" I could only reluctantly answer "Is there any" The old man did not answer my question and continued to ask, "No, there is only this one" and then I told him the process of finding this stone.

The old man's feeling summed up a sentence: "Providence is like this, creation makes people"

After speaking, the old man asked me to follow him, and after walking for most of the day, I saw a wooden house in the distance, and it seemed that the wooden house was the old man's house.

The old man took me into the hut and told me to sit on a wicker chair and wait, and in a few moments he came out of it, still in his hand, a book-like object, and came up to me, and he gave me the book and told me to read it.

After I took it, I felt a sense of age, a breath of history.

When I opened it, it was written in ancient characters, because I couldn't read it, but if I didn't understand, I had to pretend to understand, because I really understood it if I pretended to be dressed.

I kept turning until I reached the last page, and I could clearly see that the figure on it was exactly the same as my steel ball. I don't understand this time, is it not only a treasure that I picked up, but also a family heirloom, but it shouldn't be.

The old man saw that I had finished reading the book, and said, "You should have seen it, the steel ball in your hand is not an ordinary thing, my ancestors have been looking for it for generations, and the emperor has lived up to his wishes, let me meet it." “

I don't know what to say, I'm not the kind of person who wants to get rich, but it's not good for money. But, alas~ it's so tangled.

Fortunately, his next words found the steps for me, "This piece of extraterrestrial meteorite iron is not only priceless and extremely rare, but also extremely spiritual, and it will not come out if you meet someone who is destined." When the ancestors discovered it, it was already someone else's, but the meteorite was only one-third of what it is now, although there were few materials, but if it weren't for the good work of the ancestors, and the fame was extremely high, it might not be able to meet it. Then the ancestors spent seven years, seven days, and seven days to create an extremely sharp sword, which was named the Fish Intestine Sword. “

I was shocked when I heard this, looking at the steel ball in my hand, I didn't expect that I could create an artifact like the fish intestine sword in just one third, so my piece, isn't it.... Hahaha, the originally melancholy mood instantly improved a lot, looking at the old man in front of me who just felt very annoying, now I think he is much cuter.

Then he said something that almost made me so excited that I hugged him, "Can you let me use this meteorite to build a weapon" "Yes, it's too capable" I feel like I'm the pride of the sky now, I originally felt very uncomfortable retiring, but now I know that it turned out that it was God's arrangement to let me retire.

I'm so happy to live a happy life in the future, and so on, I suddenly thought that this is the era of hot weapons, and it won't be killed casually.

I stroked the steel ball in my hand, oh no, it was meteoric iron. Finally made a decision, "Uncle, please help me build it" No way, suddenly let me think of it, I can't think of it.

"Knives, no, they're too heavy and don't look good. The sword, too, is too soft. Dagger, forget it, too short. Bayonets, forget it, tired of playing. Saber, still not good. I thought to myself. The old man really can't stand it, "Tang knife, both the use of the knife and the sword, and the killing of the knife and the beauty of the sword, and there is also a sense of history, it seems that people have taste..... "In short, I agreed with the old man to create a Tang knife."

And the old man told me that it would take at least seven years to build a successful one, and I weakly asked if there was a faster way. The old man told me that there was no way, and that this was the only way to do it left by the ancestors, and this was the result of personal experiments. I reminded that now that it is the 21st century, there may be other methods, such as welding torches, such as high-pressure furnaces. The old man said a word, and I was speechless in an instant

If you have money, you can buy it, I don't have any money.

Yes, that's it, every day, the fire burns the steel balls, the fire can't be stopped, and it has to be kept at a high temperature, but fortunately there are two of us, otherwise, I don't know what to do. Take turns adding firewood every day to ensure the temperature of the stove. I now know what an extraterrestrial meteorite is, and once again I accidentally dropped a nail into the furnace, and in one day, the nail had already melted, and the meteorite did not change at all, not even the color, and it lasted for two years. I don't know how I persevered, and every day I added firewood and firewood, and I cut down all the trees within a radius of five kilometers. Finally, two years have passed, and the meteorite has moved, and there are a little signs of melting. This began the second work, every day to take out the meteorite and beat it with a hammer for three hours, and it took a year for the meteorite to form the appearance of a Tang knife. Then the one-and-a-half-year finalization period, meteorite, was finally released.

Then, it is to sharpen the blade, sharpening the blade, and grinding through seven grinding disc-sized grinding stones, which lasted a year.

The knife is finally formed. Then, a piece of meteoric iron, the size of a one-dollar coin, was added to steel, and a scabbard was created, which took half a year.

Then the knife was brought to the top of the mountain and exposed to the sun and moon, which lasted half a year.

Every day, no matter what you do, you will carry the knife with you to conceive, and practice the knife skills taught by the old man, which lasts for a year.

In the last half year, the month before, I accompanied the old man, because, in just a few years, the old man has put a lot of effort, not to mention, he is older, so the old man is now dying. The old man will be buried and the tomb will be guarded for one month. The last four months are the time when I left, I walked on the road, looking at the Tang knife in my hand, this is my Tang knife, so long persistence, although now I think about the original insistence is funny, it is better to find a place to sell it, but now that I think about it, fortunately I didn't do that at the beginning.

Occasionally look back in the direction of the old man's tomb. I really feel like I've been dreaming for the past few years.
