After saying goodbye to Adar, Li Zaixing and Al Madi came to the West City together. Two days ago, Julia had already sent two dragon descending trees to a blacksmith she met in the West City, entrusting him to build two spear heads, and today he came to pick up the goods.

The blacksmith was a short, bearded man with a tall nose and deep eyes, with a large beard that buried his nose and mouth. According to Julia, his name is Sang Tuo, from the city of heaven - that is, Damascus, once a famous weapon master of Damascus, the family has passed down the craft for more than 300 years, came to Datang for more than ten years, and has won a lot of reputation for his exquisite craftsmanship. He was also a Sassanid Persian, and believed in the same true God as Elmadi.

"Oh-" As soon as he saw Elmadi, Santo exclaimed, stretched out his muscular arms, and gave Almadi a bear hug: "My little angel, how are you doing?" Well...... Seeing you smiling so happily, you must be having a very good time. ”

Al Maidi nodded with a shy smile: "Thank you Uncle Santo for your concern, may the true god bless you." ”

"Hahaha......" Sang Tuo was very happy, kissed Al Maidi's red cheek, and looked at Li Zaixing: "So, you are the warrior that the little angel often mentions?" ”

"Don't dare." Li Zaixing looked at this weapon master who looked like a dwarf and smiled: "I have always heard that Master Sang Tuo is the most famous weapon master in the Heavenly City, and I will trouble you this time." ”

"No trouble, no trouble." Sang Tuo shook his head again and again, and said while leading Li Zaixing to the backyard workshop: "I just don't understand, why do you use that kind of wood as a gun barrel." If you need to, I can make you a gun with meteorite. Although the best meteorite is more expensive than gold, who made you the owner of the little angels? ”

Sang Tuo took out a wooden box, took out two cold and shining spear heads from it, and put them in front of Li Zaixing in a show-off manner. Li Zaixing only glanced at it, and he fell in love with it incorrigibly. He carefully took it and brought it to the light of the door, and admired it carefully.

This spear head is not very large, only six inches long, according to Li Zaixing's requirements to make a triangular shape, each ridge line is not a straight line, but streamlined, the three edges are not flat, but slightly inverted, like a slightly smaller three-edged military thorn, each surface, there are hidden patterns in it, when staring, these patterns seem to come to life, twisting gently, like a flying dragon with wings.

"Good craftsmanship!" Li Zaixing blurted out and praised it.

Sang Tuo smiled, his dark face was also glowing, and he took the other spear head: "Look at this again." ”

Li Zaixing took it and admired it carefully, this spear head is also exquisite, but it is smaller, and the dragon-shaped pattern on it is more feminine.

"This is the most satisfying work in my life, dragon pattern, is there any?" Sang Tuo said ostentatiously: "Have you seen the dragon pattern?" ”

"I saw it, I saw it." Li Zaixing nodded again and again. Although this dragon is not like a dragon in the Central Plains, but a bit like a dragon in Western fantasy, he is still very satisfied. He rubbed the edge of the blade, feeling the fierce beauty of a work of art, and couldn't put it down.

"This is my dragon spear for the little angel." Sang Tuo became excited, a little nagging. As he spoke, he took out the two dragon descending woods and asked with some uncertainty, "Do you really want to use such wood as a gun?" ”

Li Zaixing smiled and said proudly: "You just said that you have the same meteorite iron as gold, then let me tell you, these two pieces of wood are more expensive than gold." It is no exaggeration to say that gold has a price, but this wood has no price. ”

"Really?" Sang Tuo's eyes narrowed, a little dissatisfied: "What kind of wood is so expensive, why haven't I heard of it?" ”

"Look at this." Li Zaixing picked up the dragon descending wood and showed him the roots, "See what?" ”

Sang Tuo deserved to be a master, and he saw the strangeness at a glance, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Hey, what kind of tree is this, it's actually ...... No growth rings? ”

"This tree grew tens of thousands of years ago, when there were no four seasons in the world, only ice and snow winters, so this tree has no growth rings and grows extremely slowly. Now that this kind of tree is extinct, if you die, there will be one less, do you say it is precious or not? ”

Sang Tuo was not convinced: "Having said that, this wood is too soft and not suitable for a gun." ”

"Soft because it's alive. Steel is hard, but it's dead. Li Zaixing picked up the dragon descending wood and shook his arms: "Why do you want to use the whole tree as a gun shaft, but not the cut one?" It's about maintaining this whole force. The real gun has its own life, and when the person who uses it touches its pulse, it can become one with it, and truly achieve the unity of man and gun. ”

As he spoke, he suddenly slid sideways and stabbed a false shot at a shield hanging from the wall. The workshop was cramped, full of tools and half-formed weapons, but he was unaffected, moving quickly without touching anything or making any sound. When he retracted his posture, there was silence around him. Sang Tuo stared wide-eyed, looked at it for a long time, and asked puzzledly, "What did you try just now?" ”

"Al Maidy, take that shield away." Li Zaixing pointed to the shield. Al Maidi walked over, took his shield, and suddenly let out a scream. When Sang Tuo heard this, his curiosity rose, he rushed over, pushed Al Maidi away, raised his neck, and suddenly groaned: "Oh-"

Li Zaixing didn't need to look to know why they were surprised. The shot he just fired seemed ordinary, but in fact, there was a lot of mystery in it. The shaft of his gun was bent from the shake, and the tip of the gun went around the shield and stabbed a hole in the wall behind it. But his movements were too fast for Santo and Al Medi to see clearly. They couldn't have imagined that the spear in his hand could bypass the shield attack. This is something that cannot be done by an iron gun, and it is also something that others cannot understand. Not to mention Al Maddie, even the current marksmanship can't do it.

This is a skill unique to the internal marksmanship.

Al Maddy and Santo looked at the hole in the wall, and then at each other, staring at each other, not knowing what to say for a while. After a while, Al Maddy walked up to Li Zaixing and said in a trembling voice, "Master, I'm ...... Can I practice marksmanship like this? ”

"Isn't this the kind of marksmanship I'm teaching you now?" Li Zaixing patted her face, "Don't worry, kung fu is slowly boiled out, with your foundation and understanding, you can do it after three years of practice." He shook the dragon descending wood in his hand: "When the time comes, you will be able to feel the breath and pulse of this gun, feel its life, and it will become a part of your arm." ”

"Sure enough, it's a dragon lance." Sang Tuo clasped his hands in front of his chest, raised his face, and prayed silently for a moment, and let out a long sigh of satisfaction from his thick beard: "Only the true god of war has such magical marksmanship and is worthy of such a magical weapon." I can build weapons for the god of war, and I'll be content for the rest of my life. Thank you, God, and Ahura, for giving me such a profound blessing. ”

"Dragon spear?" Li Zaixing pondered for a moment and nodded with satisfaction. There is a saying in the martial arts that a big gun is like a dragon, and with the dragon wood barrel and the gun head with dragon patterns, it is not a pair of dragon guns.

Seeing that Sang Tuo reverently loaded the head of the spear, and then put it in a brocade bag, Al Maddy put the dragon spear on his back and walked out of the West Market with a brilliant face. Along the way, she kept touching the gun, as if she was touching two new lives.

"Master, I'm ......," she suddenly whispered, "this gun...... It's too expensive for me to use. ”

Li Zaixing glanced at her and said lightly: "No matter how valuable this gun is, it is not as valuable as you." He raised his hand and patted her on the back of the head: "Don't say such stupid things in the future, no third person is qualified to use this gun except for me and you." ”

Al Maidi blushed, and just as he was about to speak, Li Zaixing shook his head again: "No, there should be a third, a fourth." ”

Al Maddie was stunned for a moment, the flush on his face receded, and he looked embarrassed.

"In the future, if you give me a group of children, I think someone among them will be able to take over this pair of guns and pass on our martial arts and courage."

Al Maddy's face flushed suddenly, and she turned her face away, avoiding Li Zaixing's fiery gaze. At this moment, she is no longer the majestic female warrior with a spear in hand, she is just a shy girl.

Back at Bodhi Temple, Li Zaixing took Al Maidi to the martial arts arena and practiced a gun. In his hand, this dragon spear seemed to really come to life, shaking its head and tail, and it was murderous. Although the tip of the spear is not big, it is extremely sharp, and the wooden shield used by the warrior monks to perform martial arts is like tissue paper in front of it, and a poke is a hole, even the heavy shield covered with iron skin cannot block its blow.

Wudao's eyes were hot: "Sect leader, what kind of gun is this, it's so powerful." ”

"Dragon spear." Li Zaixing handed the spear to Al Maidi and put it away, and smiled proudly: "Don't think about it, practice your boxing well, and when you can knock me down, I'll let you touch it." ”

"So precious?" Wudao salivated and said: "The head of the sect is not stingy, right, don't you let you touch it?" ”

"It's not that I'm stingy, it's that you don't have enough martial arts, and touching this gun is insulting this gun." Li Zaixing patted Wudao's shoulder: "Boy, I believe that with your qualifications and perseverance, you will still have the opportunity to touch it in this life, like these wastes, you can't count on it in the next life." ”

The warrior monks laughed and joked around Enlightenment. While talking and laughing, Xie Guanglong walked over, glanced at the gun in Al Maddy's arms, and blurted out: "Good gun!" ”

"You're also a knowledgeable person, do you know what kind of gun this is?"

"Although I don't know what kind of gun it is, but a good weapon is alive and has its own unique temperament, and these two guns are not ordinary at first glance." Xie Guanglong glanced at it greedily, pulled Li Zaixing aside, and said in a low voice: "Good brother, what you said last time ......"

Halfway through what he said, he stared at Li Zaixing, Li Zaixing was inexplicable: "What is it, so attentive and so mysterious?" ”

Xie Guanglong rubbed his hands and said with a twist: "What you said last time...... Elopement, what do you think ......"

Li Zaixing suddenly realized, he looked at Xie Guanglong's flushed face, wanted to laugh but didn't laugh: "You...... It won't be ......"
