XXXII. Dusty Sticks
If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools!
Today, when hot weapons are developed, cold weapons are so far away, but the Celestial Empire has always been extremely strict with weapon control, and Ye Feng has no way to get guns in a short period of time, so he has to find a way to use cold weapons.
It is impossible to want a good cold weapon, and today's knives are all forged and formed at one time, so the result is sharp, flexible and disorganized, so it can't withstand the impact of true qi.
And like in ancient times, it can only be tempered to create a good weapon, or a fine texture, or like a flood of autumn water, the sword body is extremely smooth, smooth from the inside out, and the true qi infusion will also be extremely smooth, maybe the material is not as good as these modern things, but in the hands of the masters, they have a name, called - Divine Soldiers!
It is obviously unrealistic to want to build a weapon according to the ancient method in the short term, as for empty-handed hand-to-hand combat, at that time, the fireballs that were large and small, flying everywhere...... Or don't count on it, it's not that the power is not enough, the main thing is that if the true qi is not continued, it will be ugly to die, and I mainly rely on the true qi, which is something that ordinary people have, at least I can't escape without it!
An hour later, Ye Feng flew down from the suspension and entered an antique street, the buildings along the street are all carved beams and paintings, the signboards are full of antiquity, the waiters are mostly dressed in Han and Tang Dynasty costumes, and the things sold can not find a little modern taste, and entering it is like returning to the Tang Dynasty......
Coming to this antique street is naturally not for those fakes and antiques, although they also expect to find one or two ancient weapons by luck, the most important thing is that there are several weapons shops on this street, which are ornamental weapon shops, and most of their customers are those old men and old ladies who haunt the park in the morning, and the mainstream goods are Longquan swords and Taiji swords, which are shiny in appearance and good-looking, but there is no blade, and the typical ones are useless, silver-like wax guns.
This seemingly useless sword was better for Ye Feng than a sharp watermelon knife. These manufacturing companies, or workshops, advertise that they are handmade, and it is said that there are also fine products, sharpened iron like clay, well, hair-like wire.
In line with the guideline of what comes now, what is safe. Ye Feng slowly walked forward. I didn't let go of a storefront stall, but I didn't get any gain, and I entered the first sword shop with regret.
Eye-catching swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, eighteen kinds of weapons, just. It's all electroplating works, and they bend tremblingly under the touch......
"Shop, can there be handmade products according to ancient methods?"
Hey? Or a practitioner?
However, few people want those things, and most stores have no inventory at all, and any processed things can make a lot of money. Who would have gone to great lengths to make those antiques, not to mention that it would take months to forge a good sword.
"Guest, don't these meet your requirements? The ancient sword is heavy and laborious to use, and it may even hurt yourself......"
The shopkeeper stopped chattering, and looked at Ye Feng with a look at SB and turned around and walked out of the store.
Nima! What era do you still need those useless things, it is enough to strengthen your body and play a Tai Chi sword!
Ignoring the shopkeeper's disdain, Ye Feng continued to search, and the goods in the store were not as good as the knife he bought at the stall. Not to mention infusing true qi, if the amplitude of shaking is large, I am afraid it will break.
The second store is still the same, the third, and the fourth......
Further on is the end, and there is nothing!
Do you really want to buy more watermelon knives to meet the enemy?
At the end of the street is a gate on the right. Inside the gate is an ordinary market, where small traders who cannot afford to rent shops make a living, and the goods are even more complicated. However, there are also many people who come here to pick up the leaks, and maybe there will be antiques with hundreds of thousands of years of history. Of course, in this idle society, many people, especially those who do this business, have eaten antiques thoroughly and have developed a pair of sharp eyes, and the probability of picking up leaks will not be greater than winning the lottery.
The disappointed Ye Feng did not rush back, and unconsciously walked into the messy market, and there was always a glimmer of hope after not seeing it.
I turned around most of the market, but in the end I was disappointed, sighed, and prepared to go to the supermarket, and prepared to lengthen the watermelon knife.
"Dog, you want 10,000 yuan for this black and unslippery rag??? I think you're poor and crazy, hahaha......"
"It's true, where did you pick up the rags, dog, you lost your eyes last time, and you can't fool people with such a thing."
"Tsk, the dog and the cow pen, the tattered actually has a face to take out, admire and admire."
……
Several people gathered around a small stall, extremely sarcastic, the stall owner was a lean young man, and his face was red in the face of sarcasm.
"You don't want it, I didn't sell it to you, I want you to talk nonsense!"
"There are things without eyes, educating you is giving you face, you are really losing the face of our market by setting up a stall with this thing, hurry up and clean up and get out!"
The purple stall owner dog clenched his fists, and he couldn't wait to kill a few people in front of him with one punch, but ...... Why do you have it, since the last time I saw away and spent all my net worth to buy a blue and white porcelain bowl, I have nothing, and I know afterwards that it is these people who are making trouble, but I don't have the confidence and strength to fight with them, and I have no money to want to pour antiques is very aggrieved. But yesterday I accidentally collected a burning stick from the countryside, I felt very strange, and I wanted to try my luck, but these people wanted to kill them all and drive themselves out of the market completely!
"How do you sell this?"
Abrupt voice, no one noticed when this person was squatting in front of the stall, Ye Feng, who opened his mouth, was holding a burning stick that looked like iron and wood in his hand, and the stall in front of him only had a few small porcelain bowls in addition to this burning stick, although it was delicate enough, but the delicacy was too fake. I don't know how many years the burning stick has been extinct, but there are always a few old people who are unwilling to enter the city of cold steel and enjoy the natural life in the countryside, even so, Ye Feng is the first time to see the legendary burning stick!
The depth of the black reminded Ye Feng of Xuanying.
"One...... 10,000 pieces! ”
The dog gritted his teeth and quoted the price, which he also thought was outrageous.
"Hehe, okay, I want it."
Throwing out a stack of banknotes, carrying a two-foot-long burning stick, he walked away leisurely, leaving a few stunned brokers.
There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them. Only this sentence can describe Ye Feng's mood at this time, originally he just went over with curiosity to see what caused the dispute, but the iron rod felt a little heavy at the beginning, almost two and a half times heavier than the ordinary iron, which shows that the material is at least good, secretly input true qi, there is almost no big damping, and even faintly there is a faint glimmer of light, good thing! As long as you can withstand the infusion of true qi, it is a good thing for yourself!
Dogs have nothing to do with their grievances, and they don't have the energy to meddle in their own affairs, pay, leave, and always can't get used to bullying people, so they pay dozens of times more.
In the hall, Ye Feng was dumbfounded, looking at the short sword shaped like a stick in front of him, or the stick shaped like a short sword.
When he returned home, he closed his eyes cross-legged, and couldn't wait to input the true qi, looking forward to opening up the veins inside the burning stick, yes, the true qi walked smoothly, after many times of infusion, he felt that the veins of the burning stick in his hand were clear, and the true qi was unimpeded, Ye Feng opened his eyes, but what he saw was a burning stick with a great change in appearance, and there were some debris scattered on the ground, and what he was holding in his hand was definitely a short sword, but the sword head was extremely blunt, and the sword body was close to the cylinder, a little flattened, like a baton that was twice as long as the size of the n circles; If the triangular shape has another point, it is a military thorn;
It's just that there are no three edges, and there are no sharp edges, but this also makes Ye Feng's blood boil excitedly, and the reason why this is the case is that there is only one explanation: the material of this burning stick is good and cannot be tempered.
It's like a talent that can't be controlled, often discarded, and this untemperable thing can only be reduced to a burning stick. The fact that talents can't control it can only mean that the person who is the master is too weak, and the same is true for the materials that can't be tempered, and now, this thing is in Ye Feng's hands...... There will always be a time for pearls to shine, and good things will one day show their edge.
Ordinary steel will be destroyed by the true qi structure, thus crushed, and this burning stick through the refinement of the true qi, but more round, internal accessibility, that is to say, the more you use the better, the process of use is the process of combing and refining, which is equivalent to the warm cultivation and refining of the Xuanying, although it is not the same as the material of the Xuanying, but it is also good, it is definitely a good thing that can be encountered but not sought.
Ye Feng's actions have made the dirt on its surface gone, revealing its dark and deep true face, the revolution has not yet succeeded, and it is necessary to continue to work hard, gather your mind, and continue to refine the great cause, with a stick in hand, without fireballs!
