Chapter 0079 - Famous Ironsmith

"This ghost weather, it's only the end of May, and it's so hot that people can't live."

"Why don't Yulang and I go to the ice cellar to practice martial arts? It's cool there. Zhang Xuan said with a smile.

Luo Cheng hurriedly shook his head, "It's too cold, I'd rather be hot." ”

He has also seen Zhang Xuan's bluestone scripture, but the bluestone scripture has no meaning to him, he began to lay the foundation of Peiyuan at the age of six, and practiced the technique of cohesion at the age of seven, and has already made two breakthroughs, and can no longer practice.

In fact, Zhang Xuan also slowly understood later that what Wang Bodang said at the beginning was right, each family has a different method of practicing cohesion, and the formula of the medicine is also different.

Moreover, the bluestone scripture is specially designed for adults to practice, and the purple fetal pill is formulated according to the physique of adults, because children cannot withstand the heat in their bodies, but even if they are adults, they can't practice if they don't have Zhang Xuan's extraordinary qualifications, otherwise there will be big problems.

Therefore, Luo Cheng's interest in the Qingshi Sutra is far less than that of the Ziyang Thirteen Halberds, he is only interested in the Purple Insect Jade Chrysalis, and asked Zhang Xuan for two to give birth to his second sister who is ready to give birth.

Luo Cheng has two older sisters, both of whom have been married, the eldest sister married his cousin, Lu Qingyuan, the second son of Fan Yang Lu, and the second sister married Zhao Jun Li, both of whom are famous families in Hebei.

This is also Luo Yi's painstaking arrangement, if he wants to gain a firm foothold in Youzhou, he must marry the Hebei family, and he even considered letting his son Luo Cheng marry the daughter of the Lu family.

"Did you go to Lu's house for a blind date today?" Jang Hyun asked with a smile again.

Luo Cheng was afraid to mention this matter, so he quickly changed the topic, "I found you a suitable blacksmith." ”

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, he wanted to make the Gasha Xuantie into a halberd, and found several famous blacksmiths, but they didn't dare to take this job, Zhang Xuan could only ask Luo Cheng for help, but he didn't expect him to find it so quickly.

"Where?"

"It's in Lujiazhuang, when are you going to come with me?"

Zhang Xuan was so anxious that he couldn't wait for a moment.

"We'll go now!"

He turned around and ran towards his room, and Luo Cheng shouted from behind, "Bring your spear with you!" ”

Luo Cheng was full of gratitude to Zhang Xuan in his heart, he was as martial as his life, but unfortunately his strength was not strong enough, and he only had two breakthroughs in cohesion, making a sixty-pound iron gun, he could only pin all his hopes on marksmanship.

Although the Luo family's five-hook divine flying spear is also a well-known marksmanship in the world, it is far from being comparable to the three major divine skills of the Thunder God Hammer, the Long Live Hammer and the Ziyang Halberd.

But God favored him, let him know the bold and righteous Zhang Xuan, and let him learn the legendary Ziyang halberd.

It's a pity that the Ziyang Halberd is a heavy weapon martial art, and his strength is not enough, so Luo Cheng relied on his extreme intelligence to fuse the Ziyang Halberd with the family heirloom Five-Hook Divine Flying Spear, and in just half a month, his marksmanship has improved by leaps and bounds, and even his father can't beat him for ten rounds, and he was not his father's opponent before.

Zhang Xuan didn't know that it was his unintentional move that created a fierce general who was famous for his marksmanship.

The two of them went out of Luofu and rode to the north gate of the city, the street was crowded with people, extremely congested, and it turned out that the porridge began to be given next to the north gate, which seemed to attract the displaced people all over the city.

Zhang Xuan saw that there were all black heads near the city gate in the distance, and he didn't know how many thousands of people were crowded, he was a little surprised: "Yulang, there seem to be a lot of displaced people in Jixian County!" ”

"yes!"

Luo Cheng sighed, "I heard my father say that there are as many as three or four hundred thousand, and today's son also ordered the Zhuo County Government to resettle them, but how to resettle them?" They can only give some porridge every day and let them occupy the land to build a shack. ”

"Can't we let them go back to their hometown?"

Luo Cheng shook his head, "If there is no army to escort them, even if they leave Jixian County, they will not be able to return to their hometowns, either they will flee to the Turks and become subjects of the Turkic Dynasty, or they will be fought for by Wang Basu, Wei Dao'er, Lu Mingyue and other bandits, and they will only be cheapened by these bandits in vain, so when today's son would rather let them stay in the city and give them a little grain and rice every day to help them, rather than allow the Zhuojun government to drive them back to their hometowns." ”

Zhang Xuan understood the truth, so he didn't ask any more, at this time, he suddenly heard someone behind him calling him, and when he turned around, he saw a horse rider running towards him.

"Jang Hyun, why are you here?"

Zhang Xuan recognized him, it turned out to be his former boss in Yanwangfu, the drunkard Chen Liang, he was also overjoyed, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted, the two laughed and hugged each other.

Chen Liang smiled and punched him in the shoulder socket, "Stinky boy, didn't you go to Turkic?" How is it here? ”

"The younger brother just came back from the grassland, and he took Youzhou Road."

"Oh! I see. ”

He glanced at Luo Cheng again, "This isβ€”"

Zhang Xuan hurriedly introduced them, and the two said hello, but Chen Liang obviously had something to say to Zhang Xuan, so he pulled Zhang Xuan aside and said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness King Yan is also in Youzhou, do you know?" ”

Zhang Xuan was stunned, "I don't know, I thought he was in Luoyang!" ”

Chen Liang smiled mysteriously, "His Royal Highness King Yan also talked about you this morning, you stinky boy is good!" Great things were done in the Turks. ”

"What do you mean?"

Chen Liang waved his hand and smiled: "I don't know what it is, I still have urgent matters now, I must do it immediately, you come to Shuo Palace tomorrow, His Royal Highness King Yan is there, we will talk about it tomorrow, I will set up wine for you to celebrate." ”

Chen Liang patted Zhang Xuan on the shoulder, turned over and got on the horse, coming like a gust of wind, and going like a gust of wind, probably being hooked away by a wine worm again.

Luo Cheng looked at him and rode away, and said with a smile: "This guy is not bad!" ”

Zhang Xuan was still reminiscing about Chen Liang's words, and the major event he said should have referred to 300,000 pieces of armor, but how could it reach the Central Plains so quickly, which made him puzzled.

"Let's go! Let's get down to business first. ”

Zhang Xuan thought of his weapon, couldn't help but perk up, and urged the horse to follow Luo Cheng out of the north city gate and gallop all the way north.

.........

The Fanyang Lu family has been a world-famous family since the Eastern Han Dynasty, especially represented by the great Confucian Lu Zhi, which profoundly influenced the development process of the troubled era at the end of the Han Dynasty.

In the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Fan Yang Lu family squeezed into the world-famous five surnames and Qiwang, becoming one of the seven famous families.

In order to gain a firm foothold in Youzhou, Luo Yi not only married the daughter of the Lu family, but also married his eldest daughter to Lu Qingyuan, the second son of Lu Zhuo, the head of the Lu family, so that the Lu and Luo families established a very close relationship.

Like other families, the ancestral land of the Lu family is in the Lu Villa in the north of Jixian County, and there are thousands of hectares of fertile land on the bank of the Sanggan River, but the main figures of the Lu family all live in Jixian County, and there is a mansion covering an area of nearly 100 acres in the northeast of the city, which houses dozens of descendants of the Lu family, including the two Lu brothers.

However, the place where Luo Cheng wants to go is Lu's Villa, which is about 80 miles away from Jixian County, located in a scenic mountain bay, a small river flows around the village like a jade belt, and the south of the small river is an endless wheat and millet field.

Lu's Villa also has an old mansion covering an area of 100 acres, because the climate here is cool and pleasant, in the middle of summer, the descendants of the Lu family will come back from the city to escape the summer.

Luo Cheng took Zhang Xuan to the east of the villa, where there were nearly 100 families of the children of the Lu family, there were hundreds of people, their status was much worse than that of the heirs, the monthly share was not enough to support the family, they had to engage in other livelihoods, but most of them made a living in the Lu family's own industry.

Zhang Xuan and Luo Cheng galloped all the way, and an hour later, they arrived at Lu's Villa, along the way, the two argued about the status of merchants, and Zhang Xuan was really puzzled by the fact that Lu had a lot of business.

The two walked into the villa, and Luo Cheng said with a smile: "Brother Yuan Ding, you think about the problem too simply, businessmen don't have a good status, but who doesn't do anything to make money, the protΓ©gΓ©s of the Lu family are all over the world, and the Lu family's industry is also all over the world, but who dares to say that the Lu family is a businessman?"

Not only the Lu family, but also the Boling Cui family, the Qinghe Cui family, and the Zhaojun Li family, none of these famous families have big shops and caravans, otherwise how can they support such a big family with just a few acres of land. ”

Yuan Ding is Zhang Xuan's word for himself, in addition to Li Yuan, the second person who called him the word is Luo Cheng, Zhang Xuan knew that he couldn't say Luo Cheng, so he smiled, "I'm just curious, the Lu family actually has a blacksmith shop." ”

"You'd be wrong! The Lu family doesn't have a blacksmith shop, and the place we are going to is not a blacksmith shop, it is the home of a real master, but he has a very strange temper, just don't keep quiet. ”

Luo Cheng pointed to a house not far from the villa, "That's it!" ”

They did not enter the Lu family's ancestral house in the high-walled and deep courtyard, but came to the Lu Dong house next to it, although the name is called the house, it is actually a low bungalow, with a stone road more than a foot wide.

On one side is the high wall of the ancestral house, and on the other side is the dense family, where hundreds of Lu families live, the conditions are not bad, they all have their own small courtyards, and a group of children are chasing and playing on the small streets.

Luo Cheng came to a small door, turned over and dismounted, stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, he saw a five or six-year-old child open the door, he knew Luo Cheng, and said with a smile: "Why is the jade prince here again." ”

"Brother Huai'er, is your grandfather still there?"

"In!"

The child ran back to the house and shouted, "Azu, the jade prince is here." ”

Zhang Xuan also turned over and dismounted, only to see an old man with gray hair coming out of the house, about fifty or sixty years old, he was of medium stature, but with big shoulders and round waist, and he was extremely strong, Zhang Xuan knew that this old man's name was Lu Yi, and he was very senior in the Lu family.

It can be seen that Luo Cheng often comes here and is very familiar with him, Luo Cheng Shili smiled and said, "Third master, I brought someone here." ”

Lu Yi looked Zhang Xuan up and down and asked, "Is it that he has Gasha Xuantie?" ”

"It's this Zhang Gongzi."

Zhang Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Junior Zhang Xuan see Senior Lu!" ”

Lu Yi stretched his face and said: "You don't have to be close to me, I never allow strangers to step through this door, just for the sake of you having Gasha Xuantie, what about things?" Show me! ”

Zhang Xuan secretly smiled bitterly, sure enough, it was a bit of a 'character', or maybe people with a little ability were like this, he hurriedly took off the Gasha Xuan Iron hanging on the saddle, and also took off the iron spear on the other side.

Lu Yi glanced at the tightly wrapped Gasha Xuantie, and ordered: "The horses will be handed over to my apprentice, you come with me!" ”

A young man ran to lead the horse, and Zhang Xuan followed Luo Cheng to the backyard, an unbearable heat wave rushed to his face, Zhang Xuan was already hot and cold, but Luo Cheng was so hot that his brows furrowed.

The backyard covers an area of three acres, with only two thatched huts, but the empty yard is full of all kinds of ironware, mainly agricultural tools, which are quite well-built, and there is a blacksmith's furnace in the other corner, the furnace is red, and two shirtless, oily young men are tinkling ironware.

Zhang Xuan saw a rare huge leather blower frame at a glance, and there was a large pile of good coal on the ground, he nodded secretly, with this blower and these coals alone, this Lu Yi has some real skills.

The three of them walked into the thatched hut, the room was full of all kinds of weapons, Zhang Xuan took a fancy to a horizontal knife at a glance, there was no sheath, it hung on the wall in a cold light, the knife shape was smooth, the blade was extremely sharp, and there were patterns on the back of the knife, which was actually made of iron.

"Sit down!"

Lu Yi asked them to sit down, but no one poured them tea, so Zhang Xuan put the iron gun on the table and pulled out its scabbard.

Lu Yi looked at the iron spear and said: "The difference between a gun and a spear is the flexibility of the gun, but the iron is the hardest iron, wouldn't it be the opposite to use the hardest thing to make a gun?" ”

"Can he make a halberd?" Jang Hyun asked.

"Of course you can, but the Gasha Dark Iron is very heavy, if your piece is really the Gasha Dark Iron, it weighs at least seventy or eighty catties, according to the balanced ratio of the strength of the halberd rod and the halberd head, then your halberd weighs at least one hundred and fifty catties, you can consider it yourself!

Lu Yi said casually, he obviously didn't believe that Zhang Xuan owned the Gasha Xuantie, he had seen a lot of fake Xuantie, and it was estimated that it was also a piece.

Zhang Xuan silently put the skin bag on the small table, and slowly untied the rope on the skin, Lu Yi couldn't help but snort softly, is there such a big Gasha Xuantie in the world? What does this man think is Gasha Darksteel?

Zhang Xuan untied the skin, revealing the peanut-shaped Gasha Dark Iron inside, dark red and overflowing with a mysterious luster.
