On this day, Mrs. Dong's spirit improved, Dong Yuan asked the second sister to help take care of her, and took the green ripples to a small village located in the depths of the pasture, built by the mound and stream. The person on duty at the gate of the village was Dong Zhao, and when he saw Dong Yuan coming from a distance, he immediately greeted him, and after intervening in the salute, he asked, "Third Miss, why are you here?" ”

"Can't I come? This is like my home! ”

"No, it's not ......" Dong Zhao drinks and fights, but when it comes to bickering, ten of him is not Dong Yuan's opponent.

Dong Yuan waved his hand and smiled: "Okay, okay, I won't embarrass you." Knowing that your lord's rules are strict, I'll wait here, you tell your lord, just say that me and Sister Lu'er are here, and ask him to come out to meet us quickly. ”

"Thank you for your understanding!"

Dong Zhao hurriedly thanked him, and after making a salute, he hurriedly ran into the village. After a while, I saw him run out again, came to Dong Yuan, and said with some embarrassment: "Third Miss, the lord said that he is very busy, let you take care of yourself." ”

"What does he mean by that?"

"That is, if you want to go in, just go in."

Lu Yi pulled Dong Yuan, "Dong Zhao, what is Childe busy with?" ”

"I'm practicing with a craftsman!"

"Knife practice?"

"It's not knife practice, it's knife practice...... Forget it, I can't tell, so you can go in and see for yourself. ”

Dong Yuan was very curious, and immediately took the green Yi horse into the village. The area of this small village is not large, and in addition to those craftsmen, there are only more than 100 people including Dong Zhao and others. Counting the family members, there are no more than 300 people in total.

But such a small village is built according to the direction of the nine palace gossip.

Tents, dwellings, and workshops are clearly divided. Dong Yuan is not here for the first time, so he is not very surprised by this.

What made her wonder was that there was no clanging sound in the workshop.

He Luyi dismounted and walked in, and saw Dong Li shirtless, discussing something with a group of craftsmen.

Next to a sword-casting furnace, there is also a wooden stake, on which are hung two sets of fallen Mingguang armor, which is very strange.

"Okay, no?"

I heard Dong Li's loud shouting. After a while, a burly, but gray-haired old craftsman came over with a sword. This sword is more than three feet long and one foot long, which at first glance looks very similar to the Japanese swords of later generations, but if you look closely, it is completely different. This horse sword appeared as early as the Western Han Dynasty, which can be used in foot combat and horse warfare. Dong Yuan, as Dong Zhuo's daughter, has also practiced martial arts since she was a child, so she is naturally no stranger to this.

I just don't understand, what is Dong Li doing here?

The old craftsman walked up to Dong Li with a knife in his hand, "Lord, according to your requirements, this knife has been tempered for hundreds of years, and it is not comparable to a divine weapon, but it is also a treasure knife that sharpens iron like clay." This is already the limit of the villain, but I don't know if the lord is satisfied? ”

Dong Yan took the knife and swung it twice in the void.

"If you're satisfied or not, you'll find out if you try it."

He strode over to the stake, and with all his strength, he shouted at the armor and slashed at it with a single sword.

Clang......

A long crisp sound came, and the Hundred Refining Treasure Knife was actually broken into several sections.

Dong Li only had a knife handle left in his hand, and after standing for a while, he said to the stunned old craftsman next to him, "It seems that he is not satisfied." ”

The bright light armor was extremely hard, but it was opened by the sword of the slashing horse.

It's just that Dong Yan didn't seem to be satisfied with this, and threw the handle of the knife on the ground, "It's still not good." Master Pu, according to what you said, the Hundred Refining Horse Slashing Sword should be able to cut at least one layer of armor. But this knife only makes a single opening, no. ”

"Master Pu was originally from Guanghan County, but was later captured by the Nanban Di people, sold to Baimaqiang, and worked under Teng Li'er. This time, Teng Lier led his troops to come, and this Master Pu must follow. His casting skills are very skillful, and Childe also attaches great importance to this. Now that he is the leader here, Childe trusts him very much. ”

Lu Yi looked at Dong Yuan's confused look on her face and explained in a low voice in her ear.

Dong Yuan nodded, walked up and asked, "Ugly, what are you doing here?" ”

Dong Yan was about to explain, but saw a teenager walking out of the shed, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with childishness on his face.

"Lord, Daddy's process is not wrong, and the materials are also excellent. In this case, it must be because the steel mouth is too brittle......"

"A-Yuan, what are you running out for?"

When Master Pu saw the young man, he immediately showed nervousness, and he forced a smile: "Don't blame the lord, the child is not sensible, and I ask the lord for forgiveness." ”

Dong Li smiled, "It's okay! ”

After finishing speaking, he saw the chubby young man and said unhappily: "Daddy, I really know the reason." ”

Master Pu was furious and was about to go over and beat him. But I heard Dong Li speak: "Master Pu, you might as well listen to him." ”

"Water quality!"

The young man said: "Daddy's craftsmanship is not wrong, but when the knife reaches the level of 'white brightness', it needs to be quenched. The quenching has high requirements for water quality, and the sword casting masters in ancient times must choose a place with beautiful mountains and rivers before casting a sword. To put it bluntly, it's about choosing the right water quality...... The water here comes from Tao Shui, and Tao Water is pure and weak, but it is not quenched; If the lord wants the treasure knife in his heart, he can succeed in being elected to the cool water. ”

The young man talked eloquently, and Master Pu was still very nervous at first, but when he heard it, he couldn't help but applaud.

"That's right, the water quality, the problem should be in the quenched water."

Dong Yan frowned, "Then do you know where the water is refreshing and suitable for quenching?" ”

"This ...... The villain doesn't know either. However, since ancient times, swordsmiths have chosen the place to forge swords, and the south is the first choice. If the lord wants to practice a good sword, he should look south...... The villain remembers that when we came here, we stayed in the valley for one night. The water there is hard and refreshing, and when it is a refreshing water, the lord can send someone to find it and try it. ”

Dong Yan nodded, turned his head and shouted: "Dong abandoned! ”

"The last general!"

The one who responded to the order was the 100 generals who had moved to the northwest with Dong Li. His real name is Abandonment, and after coming to Lintao, Dong Li simply gave him a surname, and chose the word 'Abandonment' from his name, so now he is called Dong Abandonment.

"Take twenty men and go to the valley at once, and fetch some water from the locality."

"Whoa!"

Dong Yan let out a sigh and said with a smile: "Master Pu, since it is a matter of water, this horse sword will be put aside for the time being." The other items I asked for needed to be created as soon as possible. If there is anything else you need, tell Dong Zhao. ”

"The villain obeys!"

Dong Li took the Zen shirt from Dong Tie's hand and draped it on his body.

"Eldest sister, we are talking in the military tent."

As he spoke, he walked towards the tent. I was about to walk out of the shed, but suddenly stopped.

Turning to the little fat man, he asked, "Hey, what's your name?" ”

Without waiting for the little fat man to answer, Master Pu said in a panic: "Lord, he is a villain's dog, surnamed Pu, and the word is one yuan." ”

"Pu Yuan?"

Dong Li looked at the little fat man, "Your name is Pu Yuan!" ”
