There is a large city north of the North City, called the South City. The word "south" is not the opposite of the word "north" in the memory of the northern city, but it is actually a "difficult" fake. At the beginning, this city was only a small city (at that time, there was not even a memory of the northern city), when Taizu pointed to the map and asked others: "This place is located at the end of southern Xinjiang, what is the name?" Left and right replied: "There is no name here, and the local people call it 'Nanfu'." Hence the name. In fact, what the locals say is "sleepless" - hot flashes in the south, mosquitoes breed in large numbers, disturbing people to sleep, isn't it sleepless?

When Tu Shi got off the bus, he was already in Nanfu City. In the game, he has no worries, and he can go on a trip that he can just say.

The buildings of Nanfu City have strong southern characteristics, and the alleys are narrow, and residents can shake hands with their neighbors who live opposite them when they open the windows. Dirty dogs and children run through the alley from time to time, and they can be frightened by the cold. The bean curd seller carried the burden, walked and stopped next to the wall, and shouted in the southern dialect: "Sell tofu (flowers)!" ~~~Selling tofu hair ~ cold powder ~~~" Often he shouted and shouted, and there was a child with a blue nose running with a porcelain bowl, like a treasure holding a bowl of bean curd back.

Tu Shi also asked for a bowl, and found that "Qiankun" was really restored, and the spoon used to sell bean curd was the same as in his childhood memory, which was a palm-sized unilateral shell - because the edge of the shell was smooth and sharp, and it was easy to cut and dig up the bean curd. A spoonful of sugar juice was poured on the hot bean curd, and Tu Shi drank it beautifully, and then sighed how anyone liked to eat salted bean curd.

Because he didn't have a bowl, he borrowed the bowl of the bean curd seller, so people sat and waited for him to finish drinking. Maybe he was tired of walking, and the uncle took the hookah and smoked it with taste, squinting slightly, and looking far away.

"Uncle, do you know where the Kaiwufang is?" Tu Shi wiped his mouth and handed the bowl and the three coins to the uncle. This uncle walks the streets and alleys, and he must be well-informed.

After learning the address of the opening workshop, Tu Shi set off. He walked on the street, and every step was very slow, very slow, as slow as the legendary Dayu who controlled the water, measuring the vast land step by step.

The inhabitants all looked at him with curiosity.

The person in charge of the shop here is a young man, and after hearing Tu Shi's intentions, he immediately ordered someone to move out the iron. The ferro-iron manufacturing technology - crucible smelting method - has long been lost in China, and is now unique to the Western Regions, so the price of ferro-iron is about three times that of ordinary steel. However, in order to fight a worthy sword, Tu Shi ruthlessly bought it, after all, money is easy to obtain, but swords are hard to find.

After buying steel, Tu Shi was also in a good mood, and suddenly remembered something and asked, "Do you know Song Yafeng?" ”

"Even you know my unsuccessful cousin? Hey, what a shame to be at home! ”

"Cousin? ......" Tu Shi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly. Kaiwufang and Jinjia Chamber of Commerce are generally family-run, and most of the principals of the branch are surnamed Song. "I've only heard about him once or twice, can you tell me more about it?"

"That's a long story."

Tu Shi took a look, okay, this task has a play!

"He is young and vigorous, and he is a genius, and he has played the name of 'Song Family's Kaiwu and Yafeng Tiangong' early, and he claims to be the first craftsman of my Song family, and the materials in his hands are all properly made into the most perfect utensils. One evening, he finished work early, but a Taoist priest came to the door and said that he was not convinced. The cousin was not angry, after all, it was a habit to deal with people from all walks of life every day, so he let the other party draw the next line. ”

"The Taoist priest took out a jujube pit and said, 'I bet you can't make utensils out of this.' The cousin laughed at the time, he touched the carving knife at the age of three, learned miniature carving at the age of eight, and was able to carve the 'Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea' on a peach pit at the age of ten, and now there are seven out of twenty, and his miniature carving attainments are indeed the top in Kyushu, although the jujube core is small, but it is not difficult for him. He then asked the priest, 'If I did it, what would you do?' and what do you think the priest said?' ”

Tu Shi listened very attentively, and subconsciously asked, "What do you say?" ”

The other party was very satisfied with Tu Shi's reaction, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "He said, 'If it is successful, I will send you a great creation, and from now on you will fly outside the immortal world and enjoy boundless leisure'!" ”

Tu Shi was stunned. Is this a daylight ascension?

"As soon as those who understand hear it, they will know that this Taoist priest is a madman, and where to share it with him. It just so happened that my cousin was very bored, so he took the jujube pit, and brought tools, wanting to make a nuclear carving on the spot, and then ......"

Seeing the other party's elongated tone, Tu Shi consciously followed: "And then?" ”

"Then something strange happened—his carving knife couldn't cut the jujube pit!" As if in order to render the story, the person in charge frowned and painted: "You must know that my Song family's tools are all excellent choices, and the carving knife held by my cousin is not inferior to the famous sword and sword. When he carved so straight that the head of the knife was blunt, he looked up and saw that the moon was already in the sky, and the Taoist priest had long been gone. ”

The person in charge breathed slowly, and said: "Since that day, my cousin has been enchanted to study the jujube core, burning, dipping in oil, and cutting with a knife...... No method can help the jujube pit. The elders all said that the jujube pit may be a different species, not a mortal thing, so the mortal law is invalid against it. ”

"Oh, no wonder he said he was collecting materials everywhere, and that's what he was supposed to do...... Is your Song family so rich, let him mess around? ”

"Alas, although he consumes a lot of materials, but also in disguise to test the physical properties of the material, this work is related to the recompilation of "Heavenly Creation", huge and complex, a lot of time is consumed, the family has long wanted to carry out, but unfortunately no one has both patience and attainment, and can be willing to waste time, lifelong skills can not be improved. The plan was put on hold until my cousin was in charge. It is all thanks to him, and now the family casting and refining process has reached a higher level, and it is estimated that there will be a sword in ten years. ”

Second, he does have the potential to become a craftsman. Day and night on a jujube pit repeatedly tried, in addition to not taking any orders, not making any goods, not even drawing a design, so after three years, it stands to reason that his level should have decreased, but unexpectedly, his skills have reached a higher level! Some time ago, the saint asked the Kaiwu Workshop to make a batch of utensils, and the number was so large that each person had to make 800 pieces. The decree must not be violated, so my cousin took one night to make all 800 objects, and I did it day and night, and it took me sixteen days, well, sixteen days. I heard that my cousin was holding a knife at that time," the principal gestured with his hand, and said with great interest: "Like peeling a fruit, the wood is cut casually, and as soon as the utensils are left in the hand, they are already in a state that can be used directly, and they do not even need to be polished; When the finished product is fully laid out, even the length, width and size are combined, and it is simply printed in the same mold. The elder said that this is cutting along the wood grain, with a ruler and a scale in his heart, and the technique is almost like the Tao, which is the same as that of the Cook. ”

Sounds amazing! This task has depth, and if you can meet the parties, maybe there will be fierce material to dig up. Tu Shi couldn't wait to say, "I want to see him, I don't know if you can-"

"I can't." The principal refused: "My cousin is closed, and he will not receive you unless you can come up with the materials he needs." However, I would like to remind you in advance that if there are ten percent of the materials in the world, our Song family will be able to collect ninety percent, and you have to use the remaining one percent as a worship post. ”

Tu Shi's eyelids jumped. Damn, is there a difference between this answer and a direct rejection?

"But if you can bring you an artifact that he once made, he might see you, too."

Oh, it's easy, doesn't it cost some money! Then Tu Shi heard the principal say: "My cousin has not received orders for three years, and his works are very rare and may not be circulated in the market." ”

You're still going to reject me outright.

————————————————————————————————————

Xuanyuan Moon Demon walked down the street.

Half of his face was swollen so high that he couldn't close his mouth, and bloodshot spit flowed from the corners of his mouth. It's like fighting a monster and coming back, it's being beaten back by a monster, right? It was so embarrassing, but he didn't care at all, his eyes were straight ahead, and his steps didn't slow down for a moment.

"Moon Demon!"

Hearing someone calling him behind him, he turned around and saw that it was Xuanyuan Ruofeng. Ruofeng wears a high crown, a robe, and a long sword, his demeanor is chic, and his bearing is upright, and he is simply a heavenly immortal compared to the Moon Demon at this time.

"What's the matter?" Moon Demon asked.

"You're going to fight the Demon Thorn again?"

"Uh-huh."

"What about the 'Demon Power Seed'?"

"I gave it to you a long time ago."

"I'm talking about what you have at hand."

"This is my trophy."

"But it's useful for guild tasks, so it should be taken out and given priority to the guild."

"It's useful to 'you'." Even though his cheeks were swollen and it was not easy to speak, the Moon Demon still bit two words heavily. He took a breath out of his nose, not knowing whether to exhale or show contempt: "How much have you brushed your favorability with Wang Vietnam?" ”

Ruofeng took a deep breath, closed his eyes for a second, then opened his eyes, and said sincerely: "It doesn't matter about other materials, I just need the 'Seed of Demon Power'." ”

"I'm sorry, I ate it." The Moon Demon replied.

Ruofeng suddenly became excited and waved his hand: "Then forget it." "Turn and leave.

The Moon Demon smiled and turned to leave.

He returned to his lodgings and shouted as he entered the door, "Master, I'm back." ”

He still doesn't know what the master's name is. The master said that once his name was leaked, he had to leave Jingzhou immediately. It can be seen that the master has caused a lot of opponents, but that doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if the name, appearance, or origin of the master is strong enough and can teach enough things, does he care if the master is a human or a ghost, dead or alive?

The master is squatting in the kitchen, fanning the wind with a fan, and this posture alone does not look like a master - the master still needs to do these trivial tasks by himself? The Moon Demon walked quickly to the stove, uncovered the cauldron, and threw the "Demon Power Seed" that still lacked slime into it, steaming a large stench.

He said that eating the "seed of demonic power" was indeed not perfunctory.
