After practicing for years, after sinking into the state of breathing and breathing, time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the sky is already bright, and there is a grumbling sound of hunger in the abdomen.
"Whew..."
Lin Li exhaled a long breath, and after practicing qi for an hour, his spirit became very good, and he stood up from the ground, cross-legged for so long, without any soreness.
Pulling out the hanging long sword, Lin Li silently sensed the qi in his body, and then the red light on his body rose, his wrist trembled, and the long sword stabbed forward rapidly, constantly sneering in the air, with the blessing of qi, Lin Li's hand speed has been greatly improved, and he could only stab three swords in a row, but now at the same time, there is one more sword.
"Sure enough! This is the result of my practice of qi for an hour, if you stick to it, even if you want to grow rainbow with luck in the future, it is conceivable! ā
The real progress is just around the corner, Lin Li was overjoyed, and then he covered his stomach, starved to death...
Satisfied, Lin Li got up and went to the study and started the daily government affairs class.
With the help of the military advisor, Zhong Xuan, and Cai Yan, all matters in Chang'an were checked and managed by them first, and what was sent to Lin Li was all sorted out information, and it would be implemented as long as he agreed to it.
When the Central Plains was peaceful, there was no war, and there were not many things in Chang'an. After Lin Li finished reading it, his heart moved, and he decided to go to the forging field on Zhong Xuan's side, wanting to forge a batch of weapons for himself, Shi A and others.
The importance of weapons and mounts is self-evident, and the invincible Lu Bu was stolen by his subordinates in Xiapi, and he could only be captured and killed. The same is true of Dian Wei's death.
Think about it, if Zhao Yun and Guan Yu don't have the bright silver spear and green dragon knife in their hands, they will be able to exert a few points of martial arts.
And at present, there are many generals under the tent, and weapons are considered weak.
Gan Ning's iron halberd was built by himself in the early years, he was a water thief, and he liked the luxury of brocade and silk, and the iron halberd in his hand was only average in terms of materials or casting skills;
Xu Huang joined the army early, but his official position has not been high. He is a powerful man with a large axe, which requires more materials than ordinary weapons. With his meager background, he can only make his axe blade a little thicker than others;
As for Liu Rui, who knows the roots, he has followed Lin Li for a long time, and he only uses an ordinary standard short cone gun. It is the same as the standard straight sword of the forest, and the minimum color of force plus 1.
Zhang Xiu, who is rich, has the care of his uncle Zhang Ji, and after the art is completed, he spent a lot of money to create a tiger head golden gun, which is cool and cool, and the force bonus is also extremely high, Lin Li speculates that there should be some other functions, such as a narcissistic trait, and the ability to pull hatred to death is increased by 20%.
If you want to be a general, how can you not have a divine blade in your hand. Lin Li clapped his hands and sent someone to the military camp to summon Xu Huang, and he went to the courtyard to find Shi A and explained the meaning of tailoring a sword for him.
Shi A was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was about to follow him to the forging field, but the Sword God King Yue was a little unhappy.
"The old man's sword was also lost before, and now he is suffering from not having a weapon to take advantage of, Yi Fang, if you have the heart to cast a weapon, the old man will go together."
"Master, you don't need it. Master, you are so old, how can you have a few days to do things with people. Now you can only look at the best sword you wear, and you still have to think about what will happen after you die. ā
"Death to the iniquity!"
......
After a while, the group of three people left the mansion and met with Xu Huang, who had hurried over, and then the four of them rode to the forge together.
The guards in the palace wanted to follow, but Lin Li directly waved his hand and said no.
The world-famous sword god is by his side, and there are also personal guards of Xu Huang and Shi'a, such a luxurious lineup, even if he can't open his eyes, he can only come to die.
The forging and smelting yard in Chang'an is located in the direction of Dongcheng, which is quite far away. But the four of them didn't have anything important to do, and they were very stuffy in the mansion and the barracks on weekdays, so they didn't rush to make the horse market, but chatted slowly and slowly.
The stability and peace of the past few months have made Chang'an more and more prosperous, but only a few cloth stalls in the markets you see along the way are doing well. During this period, rice, ironware, and even the inconspicuous salt of later generations were all controlled products, and because of the single type of food and the simplicity of cooking methods, there were no food stalls in the market. Although there are many merchants who come and go, they can only sell and drink some special products from various regions to earn a small profit from the price difference.
Only the liquor store is the most lively.
The five big and three rough men grinned and blew the vulgar cow loudly.13 while the literati and scholars mostly gathered by the window, shaking the fan in one hand, while despising the style of the men, while holding the oval-shaped amphora, incarnated as guests of the court, talking about the situation in the world.
Lin Li likes to drink, but he didn't drink a few meals in this world, one is that the amount of alcohol is too poor, Liu Rui, Li Yan and others know his virtue, and on the other hand, the wine in this period is not worthy of the word wine.
The backwardness of distillation technology has made it impossible to appear with a high number of liquors. However, due to the backwardness of winemaking technology, the lees in rice wine often cannot be removed, and the liquor will appear cloudy when it is in the middle of the wine. Lin Li naturally couldn't get used to this, and it felt like a turbidity in the wine.
Mistracked again.
......
After a long time, the four of them slowly arrived outside the forging field.
The weather was hot, and everyone was a little overwhelmed by the sun all the way, but when they arrived at this forge site, they realized that if the sun was like fire, this place was an out-and-out furnace.
However, the place where the weapons were forged was originally full of iron furnaces, and everyone was also prepared for this temperature, but because they thought that they were about to have the weapons in their hands, they couldn't wait to go in and take a look as soon as they got off the horse.
Zhong Xuan is the arsenal commander appointed by Lin Li, and he is responsible for the manufacture and inspection of military uniforms on weekdays, so he can only stay here all year round, and he is not lightly roasted.
Lin Li wanted to come to forge weapons, and his subordinates came to report it in advance, so Lin Li walked a few steps in the forging yard before he saw Zhong Xuan.
Almost unrecognizable at first, Lin Li looked at the man in front of him with long hair and beard and short sleeves in short clothes and short sleeves, how could he think of his previous high-crowned brocade clothes and personable son of the family.
Lin Li said with emotion:
"Yuan Chang is very hard to work in military uniforms!"
Zhong Xuan smiled lightly and said:
"Doing your best for the Lord is what you want, and there is no such thing as hard work."
Lin Li also introduced Wang Yue and Shi A to Zhong Xuan, and asked them about the outstanding craftsmen here.
Casting is a handicraft, learn a lesson, there are many people, but outstanding depends on personal talent. Of course, the quality of weapons is also directly related to the quality of casting materials.
Ou Yezi, the great master of sword casting, forged eight of the ten famous swords, and his apprentice and daughter Mo Ye jointly forged the male and female swords of Mo Xie are also famous through the ages. But if you only give the two of them ordinary mortal iron, I'm afraid they can only forge good products.
Zhong Xuan knew Lin Li's intention, so he was naturally prepared, and when he arrived at the house, Lin Li saw that a strong man was waiting here.
Zhong Xuan pointed to the strong man and introduced:
"In the forging field, there are more than 1,000 craftsmen, and this strong man is the most outstanding among them, and all the weapons he forges are much sharper and harder than ordinary ones."
This man is a strong man, with a strong body, and his muscles bulge high like mountain rocks.
Lin Li said a few words of appreciation and asked for his name.
The strong man clenched his fists and bowed:
"The villain's name is Jiang Feng, his ancestral home is Luoyang, and he later moved to Chang'an."
Lin Li nodded, and then asked:
"What weapons are you good at forging?"
"The villain has been a blacksmith since the last three generations of his ancestors, and he is best at forging swords."
Lin Li raised his eyebrows, he was the best at forging swords, wouldn't it be just right for him.
Behind Wang Yue Shi A and the two of them were also happy when they heard this, different weapons, the casting process is also different, now because of the needs of war, most of the blacksmiths are good at casting spears and spears, and the masters of casting swords are quite rare. It's a rare encounter, and you must not let it go.
Lin Li pointed to the two behind him and said with a smile:
"The three of us are all practicing swordsmanship, and we are just looking for a master of sword casting, so you are responsible for the sword casting."
Jiang Feng nodded and asked:
"I don't know what style of sword to forge?"
Lin Li was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wang Yue at a loss, this sword is a sword, is there any difference?
Wang Yue met his gaze, smiled proudly, walked to Jiang Feng's side, and said:
"The old man made it a Longyuan sword in his early years, but he didn't notice it before, and asked the thief to touch it, and now I ask you to recast it, and it is also in the Longquan style, and the weight is 48 catties."
Lin Li almost jumped when he heard the three words of Long Yuan Sword.
The first iron sword in the world is the Longyuan Sword forged by Ou Yezi, and the mythological point can be said to be a divine sword with great luck. It was Wu Zixu's sword during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but it gradually disappeared with the war.
But in fact, this is overthinking.
The Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword cast by Ou Yezi has long since turned into ashes with history, and it is questionable whether it is still preserved. And what Wang Yue said about wearing the Longyuan Sword meant that the style of the sword was an imitation of the Longyuan Sword.
Shi A did know this, so looking at Lin Li's excited and lost look, he was a little inexplicable. But where would he care about this matter now, seeing that the master had finished speaking, he hurriedly leaned over and said to Jiang Feng:
"I have a character in my name, so I asked Mr. to cast a Tai'a sword. The weight is also 48 pounds. ā
Jiang Feng nodded, all sword casters must take Ou Yezi as the originator, so for those famous swords that have been imitated for a long time, and those with high skills can be cast, but it depends on the individual if they can get a few sharp authentic products.
The master and apprentice were quite happy to get Jiang Feng's answer, but they just looked left and right, but they didn't know what kind of sword they should cast.
Jiang Feng saw Lin Li's troubles, and said softly:
"I think adults have the air of a dragon, their posture is extraordinary, and they are unspeakably expensive. If you use a sword, there should be only one sword worthy of the royal spirit of an adult. ā
