After seeing the high yield and high quality of the steelmaking furnace, Ma Beijia was crazy, this is a political achievement sent to the door, although the biggest benefit of Wu Yuanqing's leadership must be his, but as the current chief official of Liaozhou, this political achievement will have his own share, and if he does this well, he will be promoted just around the corner. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

So Ma Bejia immediately ordered the people of the surrounding villages to expand the coke ovens and steel-making furnaces on a large scale, increase the output of steel, and write a chapter to the imperial court to report the good news.

As for Wu Yuanqing, Ma Beijia is even more diligent, and he has to come to the door in person every day to ask for warmth, but Wu Yuanqing has something to ask for, and he can't do it.

In the next few days, Wu Yuanqing led his younger brothers and sisters to take a good walk around Liaozhou, and there were people from the Ma Bei Driving faction waiting everywhere, which was very comfortable.

Liaozhou is not a beautiful place, and Wu Yuanqing's such an interesting visit is nothing more than a revisit to the old place. But for Wu Yuanshuang, the eldest girl and the third girl, they have never gone far away, let alone gone up and down the mountain and the river to play crazy, and they have had a lot of fun these days.

After asking Wu Yuanqing for a lot of steel and other materials, the two of them went back to their dilapidated house in Liaozhou and began to play iron day and night.

As a guard, how can you do without weapons, Wu Yuanqing said that when Jinyang gave them two good knives, the two of them were still unwilling, and they had to say that they could only fight it.

Hearing that the two wanted to fight two horizontal knives, Wu Yuanqing was also interested and asked the two to fight for themselves.

The so-called horizontal knife is what later generations called the Tang knife. But the horizontal knife is actually only a kind of knife in the Tang Dynasty, which is regarded as the standard weapon of the army, mainly the soldier saber of the Sui and Tang dynasties.

The name of the horizontal knife comes from the "Tang Liudian, Volume 16, Weiwei Zongzheng Temple": "There are four systems of knives: one is called the Yi knife, the second is the sword, the third is the horizontal knife, and the fourth is the Mo knife."

The horizontal knife is also called a straight knife, as the name suggests, the blade of the blade is straight, only at the end of the place there will be an arc to form the tip of the knife, generally about 70 to 80 centimeters long, the blade length is between 50 and 60 centimeters, the thickness is about 6 to 8 millimeters, and the length is about one meter, which is called a large horizontal knife.

The RB katana, one of the world's three most famous swords, evolved from the Tang Heng sword, and it can only be regarded as a grandchild of I don't know how many generations.

The forging process of Tang knives is quite profound, and generally only the Ministry of Industry and the registered forging masters in various places will forge it. Therefore, even if there are only a few people in the army who can be equipped with high-quality Tang knives.

After the evolution of history, the craftsmanship of the Tang knife was once lost, even if there were advanced equipment, materials, and processes in later generations, people could not perfectly replicate the real Tang knife.

The reason why the dynasty Mahan will build, it has to start with the dynasty's father, his father is a blacksmith, mainly to build farm tools and the like, and later at the end of the Sui Dynasty, he was conscripted to join Li Yuan's Tang army, because of the skill of striking iron, was assigned to build weapons, and later left the army to return to his hometown Liaozhou, and passed on the skills of building weapons learned from the army to the dynasty and the neighbor Mahan.

The horizontal knife that Wu Yuanqing wanted the two of them to build is a big horizontal knife, there is a good saying, one inch is long and one inch is strong, one inch is short and one inch is dangerous, Wu Yuanqing is convinced of this.

The handle of the horizontal knife is not as long as the handle of the later RB knife, and although it can be held with both hands, it is easy to hold with one hand. He didn't want to be like the RB people, holding the long knife handle in both hands, and fighting with people awkwardly, it was really ugly to die, and he was still handsome with a knife in one hand.

With good steel readily available, and coke, a fuel that can produce high temperatures, the two of them built the weapons they needed in more than three days.

When they returned to the Assassin's Mansion with their weapons, Wu Yuanqing found that in addition to the three horizontal knives, the two of them had also created a long weapon.

The dynasty is a long-handled machete, similar to Guan Yunchang's Qinglong Glaive Knife. Mahan, on the other hand, is a mace covered in spikes.

"Hey, why are you two getting this long weapon, you don't even know how to ride a horse, do you use this thing" Wu Yuanqing asked helplessly.

The long weapon is not easy to carry, and it is too eye-catching, you said that Wu Yuanqing was out of the house, and the two of them followed with such two big guys on their backs, so the return rate must be 100%.

As a weapon for the two of them, just like Wu Yuanqing said, the two of them have never even ridden a horse a few times, let alone fight with such a long weapon on the horse.

The two of them were silent like gourds, and Wu Yuanqing then teased: "Don't talk about this thing, can you use that horizontal knife."

Wu Yuanqing had never seen the two of them fight, just heard the two of them say that they had rushed out of the encirclement arranged by Zhang Tang, and saw that the two of them were not holding serious weapons, but hammers for striking iron, so they always thought that the two were just some brute force. That's why they ridiculed the two of them like this.

"Young master, you are too underestimating people, we have very good knife skills" Ma Han was despised and was very unconvinced.

"Gee, you look like you're pretty good when you say that. Then tell me, what kind of knife techniques do you know, will the Five Tiger Soul Breaking Knife, the Bamen Golden Lock Knife, the Bagua Knife, the Sun and Moon Qiankun Knife, the Meihua Knife, what kind of knife techniques do you know" Wu Yuanqing pretended to be surprised and asked curiously.

"Eh" Ma Han was stupid, staring at the young master with a pair of bull's eyes and looking at the young master in confusion, he didn't talk about these knife techniques, he hadn't even heard of them.

Looking at Ma Han's silly appearance, Wu Yuanqing couldn't help but sneer: "Silly, I knew you wouldn't." Ma Han, it's not the young master, I'm talking about you, you have to be humble, not proud. You see, young master, I know so many sword techniques, have I ever yelled at someone? No! This is called low-key understanding, you will learn more in the future. ”

Using the sword technique that I don't know the truth or falsehood from the martial arts novels, Ma Han was stunned, and he also pretended to be serious and educated, Wu Yuanqing couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

After such a fuss, Ma Han was embarrassed to say how good his knife skills were. So Wu Yuanqing decided that Ma Han must be weak-hearted, and his kung fu with the dynasty must not be very good.

The next day, Wu Yuanqing got up early in the morning, had dinner with his younger brothers and sisters, said goodbye to the horse who came to see him off, and set off back to Jinyang.

The time for the July festival was approaching, and they had to rush back to participate.

"Big brother, it's too hot, let's find a shady place to rest" walked for more than two hours in a blink of an eye, the sun has reached the top of the head, in June, it is the time when the heat is unbearable, the heat wave hits, the valley wind gusts, the cicadas do not stop, and the birds do not stop.

Li Chengqian took the carriage with him when he left, and this morning Ma Bei said that he would arrange a carriage for Wu Yuanqing, Wu Yuanqing wanted to hurry as soon as possible, or ride a horse quickly, so he didn't ask for it, just two horses, plus Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang's own two horses. Six people and four horses, Wu Yuanqing with Erya, Wu Yuanshuang with Daya, Wang Dynasty, and Ma Han each rode one.

Walking all the way without covering the bar, everyone was sweating, and the youngest Wu Erya was the first to stand it, and wiped the beads of sweat on her little face and screamed.

"Yes, big brother, let's take a break" Big girl, Wu Yuanshuang also looked at him with longing in his eyes.

"Okay, then rest" This will be walking in the valley, Wu Yuanqing originally thought that when he reached the top of the mountain, he could rest when the mountain wind was blowing, although there was also wind in the valley, but it was all hot wind, it can be seen that the younger brothers and sisters are too hot, so they have to listen to them.

got off the horse, picked Erya off the horse, tied the horse, took off the water bladder from the horse and handed it to Erya.

The little girl picked up the water bladder and didn't have a ladylike demeanor at all, and began to drink cow drink.

Over there, Wu Yuanshuang also handed the water bladder to the eldest girl first, and over the past few days, Wu Yuanshuang has also changed a lot, under the influence of Wu Yuanqing, he has also gotten better for his two younger sisters, and he knows that he will let his sister first.

After all, the eldest girl was a little older, so after a few sips, she handed the water bladder to the second brother and asked him to drink two sips quickly, and the second girl drank it herself before giving the water bladder to Wu Yuanqing.

"Big brother, where have we gone," Wu Yuanshuang asked after taking a sip of water.

"It's already out of the border of Liaozhou, and it's time to Heheshun (and the word is not)," Wu Yuanqing said.

"Oh, I haven't heard of it," Wu Yuanshuang shook his head after hearing this.

"Haven't heard of it? This place is famous," Wu Yuanqing said with a smile.

"Famous? It's impossible, I've never heard anyone mention it" Wu Yuanshuang still shook his head, feeling that the eldest brother was joking.

The eldest girl and the second girl also shook their heads, and neither of them had heard of it.

Dynasty, although Mahan knows, but he doesn't know what this place is famous for, under the rule of Liaozhou, if it is famous, it is impossible for them not to know.

"You don't know, huh? Alas, all of them are unlearned and unskilled, and they are really lonely and unheard. Wu Yuanqing collectively despised several people, and then asked: "You should always know about the Qixi Festival, right?"

"Know"

"This knows"

"Hmm" One by one, they were afraid that Wu Yuanqing would look at himself with the eyes of a fool again, so they all rushed to nod.

"Big girl, if you know it, just talk about it" Wu Yuanqing began to roll call, always ordering Erya, this time he remembered the big girl.

"Every year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the Qixi Festival, and legend has it that on this day, the Weaver Girl and the Cowherd, who are separated by the Tianhe River, will meet on the magpie bridge built by the magpie." The eldest girl was selected by the eldest brother to answer the question, and she was very happy.

"Well, yes, yes, the big girl answered very well," Wu Yuanqing praised without hesitation.

exaggerated the big girl and the little girl blushed.

Seeing that her sister was praised, Erya was very envious, and blinked her big eyes to signal to her eldest brother that it was time to ask herself.

Wu Yuanqing naturally didn't let his sister down, and asked with a smile: "Erya, what else do you know besides these?"

"I know that there is a poem written about the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl," Erya said with her little head held high.

"Oh, let's hear it," Wu Yuanqing said.

"Morning Glory, Bright River Han Girl. Slender hands, zaza lanes. All day long, sobbing is like rain; The river is clear and shallow, a little different! Yingying is in the water, and the pulse is silent. The little girl's childish voice echoed in the valley.

"Okay, good, the second girl is also very knowledgeable, my eldest girl and the second girl are both talented girls," Wu Yuanqing said happily.

"Big brother, I also know this, but what does it have to do with here" Wu Yuanshuang looked at the two younger sisters who were praised and a little jealous.

"Stupid, this is the origin of the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl and the Qixi Festival" Wu Yuanqing is always very unkind to this younger brother.

"Hehe" watched the second brother eat deflated, and the two little girls were overjoyed.

"Roar"

"Young Master, be careful"
