Chapter 96: Forging Blades and Triangular Thorns

"Brother Zhao, what should I do now?"

Standing on an avenue on the campus, Zhang Hu scratched his head again and looked at Zhao Zilong.

Zhao Zilong also secretly said in his heart that it was bad, and now that the army was in chaos, he didn't know how to find Li Xiaoling.

"Hey! Brother, which regiment are you from? Don't get in the way here. ”

At this moment, the driver of a truck stuck out his head.

"Brother, we are from the 262nd regiment, and we are here to find someone. Do you know where those students go? Zhang Hu asked.

"I've only been here for a few days, you can go outside and ask." The national-military driver replied.

"Oh, yes. Why didn't I think of that? Zhang Hu's eyes widened, and when he saw that Zhao Zilong was still frowning, he immediately comforted: "Brother Zhao, I'll help you inquire again." ”

"Okay." Zhao Zilong only nodded.

The two walked out of the school and asked a few nearby shops, but the shopkeepers or the guys didn't know where the students had gone, and some didn't even know that the school had become a barracks.

At this moment, Zhao Zilong's brows were even tighter.

What to do? I promised Li Yang that I would be able to find Li Xiaoling and take her out of Nanjing.

When Zhao Zilong was a little anxious in his heart, he suddenly saw a blacksmith shop diagonally across the street.

As soon as his eyes lit up, he immediately pulled Zhang Hu over.

When Zhao Zilong and Wang Zhong separated, they left the Zhongzheng rifle with the telescope removed.

Even if it was a time of war, it was impossible for him to go into the city alone and swagger into the city with a rifle on his back to look for people.

The dagger was lost at some point when he tore apart with the devil on the Fangshan position, and his weapons were only the box cannon returned by Wen Bin, and the two Guansun Six Knives and the Nameless Treasure Knife that were broken in half.

He had long had the idea of turning the two broken knives into new weapons, and now that he saw that there was an iron, of course he went to ask.

Now that he has lost Li Xiaoling's whereabouts, he can't come in a hurry, so he can only inquire while looking for it.

The owner of the blacksmith shop was a middle-aged man in his thirties, who was relatively athletic.

This person couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the two national soldiers coming in, but after seeing that Zhao Zilong and Zhang Hu had no malicious intent, he immediately asked, "Two military masters, what's the matter?" ”

"Big brother, do you still have a store?"

Zhao Zilong glanced at the shop, and saw that although there were some iron items hanging inside, the bellows and stove were not open, and immediately asked.

"Open." The middle-aged man nodded, and said helplessly: "Although there is a war, you still have to live." ”

"This big brother, you know that there is a war, why don't you leave?" Zhang Hu asked with some surprise.

"Hey, where do we poor people have the money to leave? Even if I leave, I still have an 80-year-old mother at home, and I can't leave. The middle-aged blacksmith sighed.

Zhao Zilong couldn't help lowering his brows when he heard this, then took out a wrap from his body, took it apart, took out two broken knives and handed them over: "Big brother, can you turn these two broken knives into blades and triangular thorns?" ”

"Ah, I'll see." As soon as the middle-aged blacksmith saw the shining sword, his eyes lit up, and he immediately took it.

"Good knife, good knife, it's a pity that it's broken in half." He admired and sighed as he watched.

"Big brother!" Zhao Zilong shouted again.

"Uh-oh." The middle-aged blacksmith came to his senses and hurriedly said, "Can you draw a pattern?" ”

Hearing what the other party said, Zhao Zilong felt a little relieved in his heart. If the other party immediately said that he could build it, then he would not be at ease. But now the other party has to give the drawings himself, which shows that this person is still more careful and responsible.

"No problem. You can just follow my drawings and build them. After Zhao Zilong answered, he immediately took the paper handed over by the other party, and drew two pictures on it with a pen.

The blade is a dagger, and the triangular stab is a knife with a prismatic body and a three-sided bridge.

After completion, Zhao Zilong asked, "How much does this cost?" ”

"Big brother, you give a discount!" At this time, Zhang Hu interjected.

The middle-aged blacksmith immediately asked, "This military master, I heard that your accent is from Nanjing?" ”

Yes, yes, they are all from Nanjing, so you can give it a discount. Zhang Hu immediately nodded and said.

"Well, you're not asking for too much, but this one may take time. Seeing that you are military masters, I will only accept two oceans. The middle-aged blacksmith thought for a while, looked at Zhao Zilong and replied.

"Okay, no problem!" Zhao Zilong nodded in agreement.

Zhao Zilong didn't have any idea in his heart how much the two oceans were worth, he thought that if he could make those two broken knives into blades and bayonets, it would be worth the price.

It's just that when he touched his body, he found that there was not a penny, and his face suddenly sank, and his brows wrung up.

"Xiaohu, do you have any money on you?" Zhao Zilong had no choice but to turn around and ask.

"Me neither." Zhang Hu was stunned, then looked at the middle-aged blacksmith and said, "This big brother, our military money hasn't been sent yet." Why don't I give it to you in two days? ”

"Huh?" The middle-aged blacksmith's face changed, and he said: "In these years, you soldiers will come as you say, and you will leave as soon as you say, if I will fight the knife and you will disappear, then who will I look for?" ”

Zhao Zilong listened, pursed his lips, and said, "Forget it, I'll look for you when I have money." ”

"This big brother, I'm also a local, don't you believe me? I can guarantee that. Zhang Hu saw that Zhao Zilong was about to take back the broken knife, and immediately said.

He wanted to behave well in front of Zhao Zilong today, but who knew that not only did he not help find someone, but now he couldn't even do the other party's thing to build a knife, so he was a little anxious at this moment.

"Well, after these two broken knives are made into blades and bayonets, there will be remaining fragments, so give them to me as wages, how about it?" When the middle-aged blacksmith saw Zhao Zilong take back the broken knife, Zhang Hu also patted his chest, and he proposed after thinking for a while.

"Okay, no problem."

Although he knew that these two broken knives were treasure knives, even if they were a small fragment, they were of little use to him, so it was better to give them away as a favor.

So, Zhao Zilong nodded happily in agreement.

The middle-aged blacksmith was overjoyed, and secretly said that he had made a fortune now.

He suddenly had a smile on his face and said, "This military master, I want to build a good knife and bayonet, and it will be this time tomorrow at the earliest, so you can come and get it then, okay?" ”

"Okay." Zhao Zilong nodded again.

"Oh." When he turned around and was about to leave, he couldn't help but point to the National Central College in the distance and asked, "Brother Blacksmith, do you know where the students of that school have gone?" ”

"You're asking the right person." The middle-aged blacksmith smiled and explained; "I have a friend who works there, and he told me that the school was closed last month and that the students either went home or stayed to help."

"Help?" Zhao Zilong and Zhang Hu both widened their eyes and looked puzzled.

"Yes, they help your military master do things." The middle-aged blacksmith nodded in reply.

"So do you know where they went?" Zhao Zilong immediately asked.
