Chapter 15 Choosing a sword, not satisfied
The length and weight of the sword affect the feel of a swordsman. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As long as it is a sword, it can exert its due power in Pei Min's hands, but a sword in his hand can fully exert his own level. Qiushui Sword was fine at first, but as Pei Min practiced the breathing method given to him by Sun Pu day and night, tempered the muscles and bones of the whole body, and used Liu Shenwei's medicinal bath to restore physical discomfort, the repeated cycle was like cutting the meridians and washing the marrow, and his strength improved by leaps and bounds. Of course, it can't be compared with warriors like Li Yide and Jiang Hua who are born with divine power. In the same age, it can be regarded as top-notch. The ordinary three-foot sword was too light for him, and he would have a feeling that he couldn't use his strength, and he couldn't satisfy his appetite. This is the case with the Autumn Water Sword...... That's why I asked for a sword.
The five swords are all slightly heavy in the hand, and they have a weight beyond the body, which is enough to show that these five swords are not ordinary.
Weighing the sword is the most basic method of the sword, estimating the weight of the sword body and testing the actual weight. If it is lighter than estimated, it is a scrap that cuts corners, and if it is heavier than the estimated weight, it is a superior product. Because a good sword needs to be forged countless times, tempered thousands of times, and the impurities of steel are hammered out of the sword body one by one, leaving only the hardest sword body and the softest sword heart, which is rigid and soft, and water and fire are blended. After such tempering, the density of the sword body will be directly reflected through the weight.
The weight of two of the five swords is in line with his feel, one of them is very gorgeous, the scabbard is inlaid with seven gorgeous gemstones of different colors, namely: white pearls, black pearls, agate, jade, crystal, ruby, sapphire, three on the left and four on the right are inlaid on the scabbard, which has the style of the seven-star dragon yuan. The other one is much more simple, the cyan scabbard is delicately carved with lifelike dragon patterns, and the dragon patterns are vivid and atmospheric. When it comes to gorgeousness, it is far inferior to the seven-star dragon abyss, but compared to the deep atmosphere, this dragon pattern scabbard is far superior.
A handful of gorgeous, a handful of atmosphere!
Pei Min first took the sword similar to the seven-star dragon abyss in his hand, drew the sword out of the sheath, the sword light instantly shot at his eyes, according to his eyes that he couldn't open his eyes, the sword was drawn out of the sheath, the sword was three and a half feet long, the sword body was translucent, and the sword light shone on all sides of the Wude Hall with the shaking of the wrist, "Good sword!" This sword is really tempered! β
"How's this sword?" It was Li Longye, the fifth elder of the Li family, who spoke, and this sword was his beloved sword, modeled after the sharp weapon created by Wu Zixu's seven-star Longyuan in the Spring and Autumn Period. In order to help his third brother, he took it out without hesitation.
Pei Min is a person who understands swords, and his face is full of praise: "Good sword, if I guess correctly, it took more than five years for this sword to take shape alone, using good iron, day after day, year after year, repeatedly beating, and countless materials were spent to forge a sharp weapon." Only after thousands of times of tempering can such a good steel be made. β
"Director Pei is a person who knows the goods!" Li Longye said with a smug face: "This sword began to be forged six years ago, and most of it stopped because the good iron could not be turned. The rest of the time was constantly forged, and after the sword was completed, the iron was sharpened like clay, and the hair was broken, so that the thief would be invincible. β
"As you can imagine...... It's just that! Pei Min began to nod in approval, but as his voice changed, he said: "To tell the truth, this sword is too rigid, too rigid and easy to break, and King Xue should not blame." β
Li Longye said: "It's okay, it's okay, I've heard a lot of this, and it's the same truth." But I like its rigidity and its indestructibility. It's a big deal, it's just a matter of building another one......"
Pei Min was dumbfounded and said, "What willful!" β
Li Longye smiled and said: "This king has a thousand households, and there is an emperor's brother. Everything is worry-free, everything is worry-free, it is really so capricious. β
Pei Min was speechless, put the sword back into its sheath, and went to get another more primitive dragon pattern sword. In fact, from the bottom of his heart, he prefers this one, but he feels that this one is too solemn and a little unsuitable for his use now, so he will take the seven-star dragon yuan first, but that sword is too hard, and it is not expected at all when it will break, in case it is decapitated later, the long sword will collapse and break, and it will be over.
Gradually pulled out the sword in the dragon pattern scabbard, the sword body of this sword is crystal clear and transparent like the previous one, and the sword body can be used as a mirror, but the difference is that this sword is bright and restrained, without the cold light of the previous handle, the sword body and the light are integrated, graceful and clear. This sword is tall and noble, but the blade of the sword is completely different, revealing a devouring light, and there is a little red in the white light.
Pei Min looked strange, and he didn't know what the red was.
"How's this sword?" This time it was Li Longji who asked the question.
Pei Min sighed: "A good sword, with the skill of the sword below, it is really impossible to judge the merits of this sword. Let's use this sword for the time being! But I don't know what the name of this sword is? β
Li Longji smiled: "It doesn't matter what its original name is, from today on, it will be yours, what name you choose, see what you like!" This sword is his favorite sword, and the earliest sword was Li Shimin's Ji Kang sword. It is said that when Li Shimin was crusading against Liu Wuzhou, one of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, Xiang Xiu's descendants, presented the ancestral Ji Kang sword to Li Shimin. Li Shimin was in Yuntai Mountain at the time, and slashed twice at the bluestone of Yuntai Mountain with his sword, leaving two sword marks on the bluestone. Later, Li Shimin fought with a sword, defeated Song Jingang and Liu Wuzhou successively, annihilated Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, and severely damaged Dou Jiande's remnants Liu Heimin and Xu Yuanlang in Shandong. Li Shimin is not only the commander of the three armies, but also a fierce general who likes to charge into battle, and kills countless enemies under the sword, so that the sword is stained with blood, which cannot be washed away, and penetrates deep into the body of the sword.
The emperors after Li Shimin have no military experience, and Ji Kangjian has been sealed for a long time. Li Longji got it by chance, thinking of the deeds of the ancestors who fought the Eight Desolations and swept the Liuhe, and his blood boiled, and he swore with a sword that he would emulate his ancestors and recreate the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty. Ji Kang's sword has been sealed in the dust for a long time, and the sword blade is not there. Li Longji recast the Ji Kang sword with the best craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty, supplemented by cold iron in the north, dark iron in the south, and fine iron from the Western Regions.
Datang's smelting technology is unparalleled in the world, and the art of sword casting is also unparalleled in the world. But for some reason, instead of eliminating the blood marks of the original Ji Kang sword, they merged into the new sword and gathered on the blade.
After the sword was completed, Li Longji named this sword "Qinhuang Sword", and he was often accompanied by his side to motivate himself, but he didn't want to choose Pei Min.
Li Longji already had the mind to achieve great things at this time, Pei Min helped him achieve great things, and he was not stingy with this saber and gave it generously. It's just that the name of the Qin Emperor Sword is too domineering, it doesn't matter if he is a king, but Pei Min can't afford to use it, so he lets him name it himself.
Li Longye glanced at Li Longji in surprise, and he couldn't imagine that his brother was willing to do it.
Pei Min also guessed that this was Li Longji's sword, and said busily: "This sword is too expensive for Zaixia, and I really don't dare to ask for it." Just borrow a day to kill thieves for Your Majesty. After using it, it should be returned. When he said this, his heart couldn't help but drop a little blood. As a swordsman, this sword, which was made by the highest skill of the Tang Dynasty, had a great attraction to him.
Li Longji said disappreliantly: "The ancient sword is matched with a hero, and you can get the help of Pei Gongzi, don't say that this sword, ten hundred swords are all willing to go, don't shirk it......"
Just as he was saying that Gao Lishi came to report, Wang Maozhong had already led three hundred soldiers to the mansion.
Li Longji smiled happily and said: "Come at the right time, go, I will lead you out from the side gate of the Wude Palace, you can go through the Lingyan Pavilion and the Ziyun Pavilion, and you can reach the Xuanwu Gate by bypassing the Chengxiang Palace. The more he spoke, the more cautious his voice became, Xuanwumen is a curse-like existence for Li Tang, since Li Shimin launched a coup d'Γ©tat in Xuanwumen to kill his brother and kill his brother, most of Li Tang's coups have been carried out around Xuanwumen.
Li Longfan said: "Third brother, don't worry, nothing will happen, and I will do it!" "He is the general of Zuo Yulin, and he also holds part of the Yulin Army in his hands, but he is not very in charge of things, likes literature and music, and rarely interferes in the affairs of the Yulin Army, and his prestige is not very good.
Everyone walked out of the Wude Hall together, and met Wang Mao Zhong striding from a distance with his soldiers. There are more than 300 soldiers, all of them wearing armor, their expressions are solemn, and the pace between the fast steps is almost the same, which shows that they are all well-trained and strong soldiers.
Wang Maozhong asked the soldiers to stand by, and led the three school officers to stride forward.
"I've seen Your Majesty, King Qi and King Xue!" Wang Maozhong was also wearing a suit of armor, tall and tall, looking heroic: "The last general is in armor, he can't make a big salute, and he hopes to forgive his sins." β
"It's okay!" Li Longji said with a smile: "You don't have to be polite at a critical time, can you know the details?" After Pei Min kills the thief leader, you must control the situation as soon as possible, and prevent Chang Yuankai and Li Ci's personal guards from having the possibility of counterattacking. β
"The last general understands, but I don't accept it from the bottom of my heart!" Wang Maozhong spoke in a buzzing manner, like a reckless man, with stubbornness in his eyes.
Li Longji raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Why don't you accept it?" β
Wang Maozhong was still speaking, and a general behind him had already spoken: "Your Highness doesn't believe in us, killing the thief leader is our task, but I just asked an outsider to join in, and we want to watch him move." In case someone else makes a mistake and drags me down, who will I cry when I wait for the head to fall to the ground? β
Li Longji couldn't hide the anger in his eyes, he couldn't imagine that the soldier hadn't moved yet, but his own people made a fuss and glared at Wang Maozhong.
Wang Maozhong also looked helpless, and said: "The last general is loyal to His Majesty, and the carefully selected ones are all confidants, and they are brave and loyal righteous men. They trust the last general, are willing to entrust their lives to the end, and they follow the last general without hesitation to serve His Royal Highness, they don't trust outsiders, and the last general is helpless. If Your Majesty trusts us and entrusts the task to the last general, the last general is willing to use his head as a guarantee, and he will definitely obtain the heads of Chang Yuankai and Li Ci to be seen. β
Li Longji is wandering.
Pei Min smiled and said: "Your Majesty, there is a way to know if a mule is a horse walk, and General Wang doesn't believe it, which is reasonable." Three swords, as long as General Mao can take my three swords, why not let General Wang take the lead? β
