It was late at night when I came out of Daoyan's room. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Su Wen called He Baichuan early the next morning, after all, he was the head snake of the land, and it was easy to find any way.

After answering the phone, Su asked and got straight to the point: "Master He, I don't know if you know the old blacksmith, or a craftsman with good craftsmanship." ”

He Baichuan wondered: "Master, what are you looking for them, what are they doing now? ”

"I'm going to make a tin rod, and fast. ”

He Baichuan was still confused: "Tin staff?"

"It's a Zen staff, the head of which is tower-shaped and has nine rings. The staff should be two meters long and made of iron, among other things. Su Wen explained.

"Okay, I see, I'll call you back in a moment. He Baichuan hung up the phone and sent it for a while, not knowing what Su Wen was doing to make this thing. This favor is easy to come by, and a good relationship with Su Wen is what he has always hoped for.

Sitting on the bed, I started talking on the phone one by one.

It is not easy to find someone who can make a tin rod now, and the average worker does not have that skill.

Fortunately, he finally contacted the last one, and in the afternoon, He Baichuan took Su Wen to the man's house.

I drove for more than an hour and arrived in Hua'an County, which was the one where the bloody incident occurred on the day of the Chinese New Year.

When he arrived in Hua'an, He Baichuan made a call, and then turned a corner and went to another street to pick up someone, a guy with glasses, and was slightly surprised to see Su Wen after getting in the car.

I heard He Baichuan call him Xiao Zhang, and he was also introduced by others.

Listening to Xiao Zhang's words, Su Wen also knew the information of the person he was looking for. surnamed Guo, it turned out that his family was a famous blacksmith in ten miles and eight villages, and it is said that his ancestors were making ordnance. But now everything is a stamping assembly line, and his craft has not fallen, he used to work in an iron factory in the county, and he is the master of the factory, occasionally helping people to build something, and now he is retired.

According to the young man's directions, he drove out more than ten kilometers to a place called Guojia Town. "This is it," the car stopped in front of a compound on the side of the road.

Outside, there was a brick wall more than a man high, the gate was open, and the yard was covered with concrete floors, where a few chickens were lounging.

"Guo Lao, someone is looking for you. ”

Xiao Zhang stood at the gate of the courtyard and shouted, causing a sound of dogs barking and iron chains rattling. The voice sounded next to the gate, startling He Baichuan.

Only then did he find that a wolf dog was tied to an iron chain behind the gate, and he stood up more than one person tall, and he broke the iron chain straight, and no one noticed that he was lying in the nest.

"Who's yelling. "A man in his 50s, dressed in an old overalls, with neatly combed hair and glasses, pushed the door out of the back room.

Looking at a young man with glasses, a middle-aged fat man, and a young monk outside, he couldn't help asking, "Who are you looking for?"

The young man nodded and said, "Old Guo, I'm a friend of Erlei." Been here before. ”

"Oh. Guo Lao nodded. He Baichuan and Su looked at him again and asked, "What about them, what are you doing?"

"Amitabha, donor, the poor monk wants to find you to build something. Su Wen took two steps forward and said.

Guo Lao waved his hand: "It's been a long time since I quit, let's build something and go to the factory." ”

The factory he was talking about was the county's ironware factory, and Guo Lao had worked there for half his life. However, as the older generation has retired, there is no one who can carry the beams in the factory, and the situation has deteriorated in recent years.

Su Wen shook his head: "The factory can't do it, this matter can only be asked to the donor." It's easy to talk about the cost or anything. ”

He Baichuan picked up: "That's right, you can open it at the price." ”

The young man also accosted: "Uncle Guo, people come from afar and sincerely. Don't you know what the factory is like now? What's more, Erlei is about to get married, so you can also make some gift money. ”

The last sentence moved Guo Lao.

Even if you don't get married for Erlei, you are a lot older, and you can save some for your children and grandchildren if you earn some money.

"Stop yelling. He yelled at the dog, then turned to the others and said, "Come in." Then he turned and went back into the house.

When the group entered the house, it was a small living room with a sofa and a coffee table in front. On the wall behind the couch hung two swords with sheaths.

Seeing that everyone looked at the wall, they couldn't help but laugh and said, "When I was young, I liked to do something, and I made it myself to play." ”

Let a few people sit down before asking, "What are you going to do?"

The young man looked at He Baichuan, and He Baichuan looked at Su Wen.

Su Wen said, "Make a nine-ring tin staff." Then he took out a prepared picture and handed it over.

Guo Lao took it and nodded. "I can do it, but it's a little troublesome. ”

Su Wen continued: "The four cobalt at the head of the cane should be thick, the body of the cane should be the thickness of an egg, and the end of the cane should be globulous. All made of iron, semi-hollow, with a total length of two meters and a weight of 24 catties. And then there will be a scripture engraved on it."

Guo Lao took out a cigarette and lit it and gave it to a few people, but Su Wen didn't ask for it.

Guo Lao summed it up, "It will take half a month." Anything else is good to say, the lettering is troublesome. ”

"I want it in five days. And you are to paint gold on the words, and use gold dust. The price is easy to say. ”

"Do you do electroplating, otherwise it will definitely rust in the future." ”

Su Wen shook his head. "No, just make it black. But the scriptures must be as I say. Then he took out another piece of paper, which was full of scriptures, and told Guo Lao how to engrave this scripture.

Guo Lao nodded and stretched out three fingers. "You pay for the gold dust yourself, 30,000. ”

The young man was taken aback. Just such an iron rod costs 30,000 yuan? This is a robbery. If you smash people away, you won't be able to explain yourself.

Unexpectedly, Su Wen nodded and agreed. "Yes, I'll have someone bring it to you tomorrow. ”

On the way back, Xiao Zhang got out of the car, and He Baichuan asked, "What are you going to do here?"

"Something useful lately. It is convenient to bring this. "Su Wen knew from Dao Yan that day that zombies all have corpse poison on their bodies, so he wanted to get a weapon. However, ordinary weapons cannot be carried, and there is no problem with this tin staff. Since ancient times, monks have many people with tin rods when they go out, one is to turn the dervishes into people do not need to knock on the door, can shake to make a sound, and when walking in the wild can drive away mosquitoes, three to use for self-defense.

When a monk goes out with a tin cane, of course, he will not be used as a weapon, and it is appropriate to carry it wherever he goes in the future.

And they engraved scriptures on them, and painted them with gold dust. After you go back, you can bless it yourself, and you can also use it as a ritual weapon, and you can also have additional blessings when chanting.

In addition to this, Su Wen found someone to carve out a few strings of hanging beads with lightning strike wood, and took them back to the temple for blessings.

This time, Su Wen plans to bring four people, who are mindful, clear, virtuous, and legal, so that when the chanting is excessive, someone can recite it along, which can exert a greater effect. A few strings of beads are for their self-defense.

On the one hand, it can prevent the Yin Qi from invading the body, on the other hand, if there is any danger other than zombies, hanging beads can also save their lives, and at critical moments, you can also beat all the beads out, which can hurt things like the dead soul a lot.

When preparing for these, at the same time, Wu Zhongxu dispelled yin qi and nourished his body. After a few days, he was able to walk without hindrance, but he was still a little weak. After this incident, if he wants to dispel the yin qi in his body, he is afraid that he will have to live in the temple master.

At the appointed time, Su Wen went to Guojia Town again and saw the made tin staff. Put the 20,000 yuan you brought on the coffee table and carefully observe the tin staff on the side.

The workmanship is fine, and all the connected places are polished very smoothly and naturally. The head of the staff is in the shape of a tower, and there is no superfluous floral decoration. The four cobalt feet are half centimeters thick, and each has three rings hanging from it. It is said to be nine rings, but it is actually twelve rings. The four cobalts correspond to the four noble truths, and the twelve rings correspond to the twelve causes. The jet-black tin staff was covered with dense golden scriptures, which was a little dazzling at a glance.

Guo Lao counted the money, his face was colored, although this tin staff was still a little rough in his eyes, but because of the golden scriptures on it, the whole tin staff looked very different, and it could already be regarded as a work of art. If you hit such a thing, you can also brag to people in the future.

Su Wen lifted the staff, and with his strength, twenty-four catties was just enough. Naturally, it can't be compared with Lu Zhishen's sixty-two pounds of water mill Zen stick, although he can dance at sixty-two pounds, but it's enough to choke if he wants to hit someone.

Carry it to the yard and wave it a few times, the tiger is vigorous, the momentum is pressing, and the ring on the cane rattles. As soon as Guo Lao went out, he felt a strong wind sweeping in front of his nose, startling him, and hurriedly took two steps back.

After dancing a few times, Su Wen was satisfied, and then he took a tin staff to say goodbye.

He got the weapon he had in hand, and although he had to go back to bless it, it was a little bit bigger to grasp it this time anyway.
