"Who forged this sword?" Yuan Xi asked excitedly.

Guo Tu came back to his senses and shouted into the distance: "Come on, go and find the person in charge..." ”

Hong Ji, the head of the armory, rushed to hear the letter, and when he saw that Yuan Xi and Guo Tu were there, he was worried: "Please... Meet the lord, humble... If you are late to the service, please forgive your sins. ”

"What are you panicking about?"

"Lord... The lord is mighty, lowly and lowly.... "He seems to be a stammer.

Yuan Xi interrupted him impatiently, waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I don't care what you panic about." Tell me first, who forged this sword? Is he still in the Armory? ”

"Back to the lord, his name is Pu Yuan, and he is an apprentice in the armory, and now..." Hong Ji replied calmly.

"What did you say his name was?"

"His name... His name is Pu Yuan. Hong Ji was even more worried. I don't know what I'm worried about.

Yuan Xi was inexplicably excited and happy, and ordered, "You hurry up and find him." I'm going to entrust him with a great responsibility! ”

"No..."

Hong Ji turned around and was about to go to find Pu Yuan, just turned around, slowly turned back, and said with a fist: "Lord Yu, Pu Yuan is just an apprentice, and the war knife he forged is really unbearable." You need to forge a knife, and you are willing to do it. ”

Hey?

Yuan Xi was a little displeased, and frowned: "You seem to be very afraid that I will see Pu Yuan?" Did you do something bad? ”

"No, no, no..."

"Why don't you go soon?" Yuan Xi stared at him and said, "I have to see him." If you can't see him, you don't have to mess around. Where he goes, you follow. "Yuan Xi was afraid that Hong Ji would assassinate Pu Yuan.

"Princess, you go with him." Yuan Xi was not worried about Hong Ji and sent Guo Tu to follow.

"No."

Guo Tu left with Hong Ji.

Yuan Xi clenched the rusty war knife and slashed other war knives continuously, wanting to see how hard the knife forged by Pu Yuan was. Can withstand a few hits.

(Note: Pu Yuan was a master craftsman in the Three Kingdoms period and a master of quenching, who once helped Zhuge Liang and traveled thousands of miles to get the water of the Shu River to forge a knife.) The person who took the water accidentally sprinkled the river water, and filled it with rainwater halfway, which was seen through by Pu Yuan at a glance. Then he ordered people to draw water again, and forged three thousand divine swords, and sharpened iron like clay. Break the Wei army. ）

Bell, bell, bell...

Yuan Xi exerted all his strength and continuously slashed the general battle knife. It wasn't until after twenty slashes that I found that there was a gap in the war knife in my hand, and it was not very obvious.

"What a knife..."

Yuan Xi couldn't help but praise.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, it was a miracle that such a hard sword could be forged. Only Pu Yuan, who claims to be a god craftsman, has such ability. If you were someone else, I am afraid that you would not even dare to think about it.

"Lord, Pu Yuan has been brought." Guo Tu, Hong Ji and Pu Yuan came to Yuan Xi.

"You're Pu Yuan?"

Yuan Xi looked behind Hong Ji, a very young man. About twenty years old, very good-looking, very capable. It makes people feel at a glance that they have unique abilities.

When Pu Yuan saw Yuan Xi for the first time, he was also extremely excited, knelt down and said, "The little one is going to meet the lord." ”

"Please get up, please get up..."

Yuan Xi helped him up and said with a smile: "I have heard of your name a long time ago. The weapons you have forged are unstoppable, and they are sharpened like clay, and it is not an exaggeration to call them the best weapons.... ”

Yuan Xi praised Pu Yuan fiercely.

Guo Tu was puzzled.

As far as he knew, Pu Yuan was an ordinary craftsman, and because the forged weapons were too poor, he was demoted to a man by Hong Ji and lit fires for the masters of the armory workshop. When will you be able to forge the best weapons? Where did Yuan Xi learn that Pu Yuan was a master blacksmith?

Compared with Guo Tu, Hong Ji was already trembling.

Pu Yuan got up slowly, glanced at Hong Ji, and said to Yuan Xi: "Lord Yu, the little one has grievances!" ”

"Say it. I've got you in charge. Yuan Xi had already seen that there must be a festival between Hong Ji and Pu Yuan. Otherwise, with Puyuan's forging technology, it is impossible to be buried. Hong Ji will not be afraid that he will see Pu Yuan.

Pu Yuan straightened his body and hugged his fists and said: "Hong Ji, the head of the weapons workshop, accepted bribes from the family to buy a large amount of inferior iron ore and forge weapons. Profit from it. shoddy and deceived the lord. The little one knew about him, was demoted to a gangster, and burned the fire for two years. Hong Ji also colluded with the Lu family and approved the Lu family to fill iron ore with stones... ”

Pu Yuan counted Hong Ji's sins.

Yuan Xi's gaze gradually became cold, and he was extremely angry in his heart: "I didn't expect that there would be such a thing in my Yecheng Armory Workshop." The knives and instruments we use are all made of inferior iron ore? ”

"Lord, he... He's spewing blood! Hong Ji knelt down with a thud.

Yuan Xi glanced at Guo Tu.

Guo Tu understood and shouted into the distance: "Come on, take down Hong Ji!" Escorted to the Governor's Mansion of Zhili, waiting for me to verify it, and severely punished! ”

"No..."

Several soldiers stationed in the armory came over and escorted Hong Ji away.

"Ahh Hong Ji shouted loudly and begged for mercy.

"Phew!"

Pu Yuan angrily spat at Hong Ji.

After Hong Ji was escorted away, Yuan Xi took out the rusty war knife from before, handed it to Pu Yuan, and asked, "This war knife, but did you forge it?" ”

"Yes." Pu Yuan replied: "At the beginning, the small one forged this war knife and showed it to Hong Ji, but he said that the quality was too poor and it was not included." also demoted the little one to be a man. ”

"I didn't expect Hong Ji to be so hateful, even I was kept in the dark by him..." Guo Tu snorted and said: "Don't worry, my lord, when I return to the Governor's Mansion of Zhili, I will definitely investigate him in detail and bring him to justice." ”

"It's your business." Yuan Xi put away his sword, put his arm on Pu Yuan's shoulder and said, "Pu Yuan, now that I know about you, you don't have to burn the fire anymore." From now on, I appoint you as the head of the Yecheng Armory. You will replace Hong Ji and take charge of all the affairs of the Armory. I wonder if you're willing to serve? ”

Pu Yuan never dreamed that he would be able to get ahead.

In his eyes, being a master of an armory workshop is very remarkable. If you can be a steward, it is the pinnacle of life. Now Yuan Xi let him ascend to the sky in one step and be the head of the entire Yecheng Weapons Workshop. How big does that have to be?

Pu Yuan was so excited that he couldn't even speak clearly: "Lord... Lord, you... You mean.... ”

"I admire people who have the ability the most, you can forge such a good knife, it shows that you have the talent to forge. How can I bury your talent like that Hung Ji again? Yuan Xi smiled.

"The little ones are willing to take over. Small thanks to the lord. After Pu Yuan returned to normal, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Hurry up..." Yuan Xi picked him up and walked around the armory. Taking advantage of Pu Yuan's gratitude to Dade and his eagerness to make contributions, Yuan Xi told him about building the armor of the giant beast. Pu Yuan patted his chest and promised that he would forge the hardest armor.
