Chapter 80: Master, Long Time No See!
Mo Lu glanced at Yu Qiong, who was standing beside Yu Jie not far away, and whispered: "Actually, the disciples of the Qinglin Gang are not all evildoers, and looking at Yu Qiong's appearance, it seems that she has not joined the Qinglin Gang for a short time, but she is just ordered to monitor us!" ”
"But we don't have what they want, so what are we spying on?"
"Maybe not!" Mo Lu's tone was quite mysterious, "The Blue Dragon Gang is famous for its swords," after a pause, he continued, "Master Bi, what you are carrying is the Bi Ran Sword I gave you, and the Bi Ran Sword in your arms is found out of nowhere, but these two things are enough for the people of the rivers and lakes to covet!" ”
I looked at Mo Lu curiously, and couldn't help touching the Bi Ran sword behind me, and then touching the Bi Ran sword in my arms, I just wanted to ensure my own safety, and I didn't plan to kill people and set fires, why are you watching my sword?!
Mo Lu knew the doubts in my heart and continued: "Actually, it has a great background than the Bi Ran Sword on his back...... ”
Who said it, everyone has a bitter story behind it, I see that there is also a legendary story behind each sword, it turns out that the sword on my body was originally cast for a hero of the rivers and lakes, the hero paid a deposit of ten taels of gold and implored Mo Lu to cast a peerless sword, the material must also be unique in the world, Mo Lu did not dare to slack off, with the world's most scarce iron ore cast for nine hundred and eighty-one days, and finally practiced a peerless sword, how could the hero make too many enemies on the rivers and lakes, and hung up before he could take the sword, At that time, Mo Lu was also an honest person, so he hung this sword in the middle, waiting for the descendants or disciples of the hero to pick it up, and I don't know who Lu Dao said that this sword is a peerless sword, so from time to time there are people on the rivers and lakes who come to Mo Lu to ask for a sword, and name this sword, every time Mo Lu drives those people away, and gradually there are fewer people who come to ask for a sword, who knows that Lu Dao will wait until Mo Lu does not cast a sword, and when Situ Hong and I arrived, no one came to take the sword, So when I proposed to burn the sword that day, a trace of unhappiness flashed on Mo Lu's face.
I nodded and listened to Mo Lu finish telling the story of this Bi Ran Sword, and said slowly: "So that's the case!" ”
Mo Lu looked at me, "Actually, another reason why I didn't give this sword to others in the first place is that every full moon night this sword will glow red like blood, and you have to drink blood to calm it, originally I thought that this sword would be like this in your hand, but I never thought that it would never be since that day, presumably this sword has already recognized you as its owner!" ”
"Oh!" I was surprised to take down the Bi Ran Sword behind me, it turned out that it still had this experience. I gently stroked the scabbard of Bi Ran Jian, and whispered: "Bi Ran Sword, Bi Ran Sword, don't worry, as long as you are by my side for a day, I will treat you as a treasure, and I will never let you be wronged......!" ”
The Bi Ran sword in his hand seemed to be enlightened, and it was instantly hot, and the heat seemed to come from the sword body, not scorching to the extent that people could accept it, but it could not be found from the outside, I raised my head in surprise and looked at Mo Lu, Mo Lu seemed to know everything, and said lightly: "It is responding to you!" ”
As he was talking, Yujie ran over with excitement on his face, "Brother Bi, Master Mo, it turns out that you are here, my sister called you over!" As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed not far away.
I followed his finger and looked over, Yuqiong and Situ Hong were standing not far from the sword-casting furnace beckoning to us, and even Wang Wu looked at the sword-casting furnace in front of him with a curious expression. I glanced at Mo Lu, "Senior, Miss Yuqiong told us to come over!" ”
"Good!" Mo Lu responded, and the three of us walked towards them.
Under the sword-forging furnace, the charcoal fire rises and scorches people, and no one can come close. When a few of us approached, Yuqiong asked softly, "Master Mo, this sword...... Can it really be defeated by one? ”
"Could it be that Miss Yuqiong doesn't believe in my sword-forging skills?" Mo Lu didn't answer her words, but asked rhetorically.
"That's not what the little girl meant?" Yuqiong hurriedly explained, "The little girl just thinks that if you want to forge a sword, you have to do your best, but it's only been seven days ......!" ”
I understand what Yuqiong means, she is saying that seven days is probably not enough for any swordsmith, even if you are the first-class swordsmith in the world, I'm afraid seven days is not enough, in other words, are you kidding us?!
Mo Lu looked at her and just smiled, this time he didn't speak, but it made Yuqiong a little embarrassed!
Originally, the opening time of the sword casting furnace was set at twelve o'clock at noon, that is, at noon, because Mo Lu said that the sun at noon is the most abundant, and the sword is the unity of heaven, earth and man, the sky is the hour and the light, the earth refers to the materials gradually used, and the people are the people who cast the sword and the person who holds the sword.
Mo Lu raised his head to look at the sun overhead, midday was a good time to open the sword-casting furnace. Mo Lu glanced at the charcoal fire that was still smoking, and said in a quiet long voice: "Open the furnace ......!" ”
Under such a shout, Er Zhuang led several strong men to slowly pull the rope on the sword-casting furnace, and the furnace door was opened!
Under normal circumstances, if it is a sword, the body of the sword must be blazing and cannot be touched, and because the sharpness of the blade needs to be constantly beaten, but in the past seven days, the whole village has not heard any sound of percussion, so Mo Lu's sword casting is even more mysterious.
Just as the sword-casting furnace was about to be opened, and the sword was about to be released, a loud shout sounded: "Surnamed Mo, you still dare to cast a sword?!" ”
The voice came out of thin air, as if it was out of nowhere, and in an instant, everyone forgot that this was to open the furnace to get a sword, and looked around, even the second strong and they stopped.
"Who's yelling?" Before a few of us could speak, Yuqiong asked loudly.
"Haha......ha The voice laughed loudly, "Yellow-haired girl, are you from the Qinglin Gang?!" ”
Yuqiong's face suddenly turned crimson when she was said by this voice, not because she was shy, but because she was exposed in public, her face couldn't hold it. Yuqiong continued to drink and asked, "I'm from the Qinglin Gang, what do you have to do?" ”
"Yo he, the tone is not small, when I was drinking with your gang leader Liu Yeqing, I am afraid you were not born yet!" The voice was disdainful.
"Who the hell are you?"
"Who am I?" The voice snorted coldly, "You don't deserve to know the Dao!" ”
I listened to the voice and looked around, and it seemed familiar to my ears, as if I had heard it somewhere, but when I thought about it, I couldn't remember where I had heard it, who it was?!
As I was thinking about it, I saw a staggering old man walking out of the crowd, although the old man's steps were staggering but powerful, at first glance he was a master of internal skills, but his clothes looked a little tattered, and his hair was also messy. As soon as I saw the man, I shouted excitedly, "Master, why are you?!" ”
"Master?" Everyone looked at me in unison.
I didn't explain much, and hurriedly rushed to Qigong, "Master, I haven't seen you for a long time, why did you come here?" ”
"Hehe, the master misses your craft!" The master smiled and followed me to the crowd.
Qigong walked up to a few people, looked at them, and after a moment, his gaze stopped on Mo Lu, "Mo Lu, I didn't think it would be me!" ”
"Hong Qi, you ...... How did it get here? Mo Lu opened his mouth and stammered, listening to that tone, he was familiar with my master.
"Hehe, passing by, just passing by!" The master smiled faintly and didn't say anything more.
Situ Hong, Yuqiong and Wang Wu were puzzled when they heard me call this old man the master just now, and now they were even more puzzled when they saw that Mo Lu was familiar with him again, so I turned my head and explained to them slowly, and briefly explained how I met the master, but how the master knew Mo Lu I am also very curious, and I want to ask when I go back.
