Chapter 82: Blacksmith Yang
Finally ran to the edge of a courtyard wall with white walls and green tiles, he couldn't hold on any longer, "plopped", fell to the ground and passed out, and finally heard a crisp girl's voice with a trace of consciousness, "Dad!
It seemed like just a moment, and it seemed like a century long.
Consciousness returned to his mind, and his consciousness was clear.
What catches your eye is the dome of the Northland dwelling, with thick beams stretching across the roof with a slight protrusion. Indoors, a lamp is like a bean, the furnishings are simple, and under the body, is an ordinary northern earthen kang. sighed, fortunately, it's not the underground black prison of the City Lord's Mansion.
Looking inward, the intensity of the divine mind has returned to about 300 hertz, which is about the strength of the three-layer divine consciousness. Happily, the newborn pineal gland is thriving, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before it returns to its original state.
It's still the same as when he first entered the space of the Wind Ling Continent, and the spiritual power can't be invoked. Suppressed by the laws of heaven and earth in this world, the dark energy in the body is refined into free molecules, which are attached around the bridge of divine consciousness.
The consciousness moved slightly, and the waist and abdomen were exerted, and he was about to get up.
In the past, the dexterous waist was like a heavy iron ring, even if it was difficult to move a centimeter away, the right hand helped hard, and wanted to sit up, but unexpectedly clumsily overturned the cups and plates on the bedside table, and there was a chaotic sound, breaking the silence of the long night.
"Daddy, that man is awake!" the girl's voice that I heard earlier sounded next door. Soon hearing the man's coughing sound and the sound of waking up when he got up, Wu Yi hurriedly used his weak divine sense, slightly changed the combination of his facial features, and his face was slightly different, "Wu Yi" is the governor of the Iron and Blood Army, and he served as the prefect of Yangguan for a period of time. In this Yangguan City, I am afraid that many people have seen the appearance of Governor Wu.
After a while, a big man from the northwest opened the door and stepped inside.
This man was about forty years old, with a dark face, rough hands and feet, and a familiar look between his eyebrows, as if he had seen Master Yang, the blacksmith foreman, when he inspected the workshop.
Looking at Wu Yi, who tried his best to sit up, with the unique heartiness of a northern man, Yang Blacksmith smiled and said, "Little brother, are you awake? I've told Niu'er to go and give you a hot meal, and I've been in a coma for three days, so I should eat something lighter. ”
The man smiled innocently, and his black and red face revealed the simple folk customs of the Northland.
Obviously, the other party did not recognize the former Governor of Wu, and he only met with Yang Blacksmith once, and he hugged back and forth, the captain of the guard, Wu Hai, was full of murderous aura brought out from the sea of blood in the corpse mountain, and his guards were like wolves and tigers, and when they inspected, they frightened the blacksmiths, where did they dare to take a closer look at the appearance of the city lord.
Wu Yi had a warm smile on his face, and said gratefully, "There is Uncle Lao, under the Hetao clan, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, doing some bodyguards to protect the hospital for a living, and he is about to go back to his hometown to join his relatives, passing by Yangguan Pass." Yesterday, I got out of luck in my practice and fell at the door of my uncle's house, but I am fortunate to have my uncle's help, thank you so much!"
After all, it is the front line of the battlefield, so don't let people mislead people with the suspicion of being meticulous.
Blacksmith Yang smiled mildly and said, "Don't say that, who doesn't have a drought or flood disaster, if it is an uncle's family, you will also help, won't you?"
Wu Yi was no longer polite and asked, "By the way, uncle, I don't know where this place is, and how many days have you been in a coma?"
Blacksmith Yang replied, "This is the residence of the ironsmith of the Ordnance Department of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of Yangguan City, and it is the blessing of the Metropolitan Governor of Wu。。。。。。 Speaking of this, Uncle Niu paused, knew that he had lost his words, and smiled to hide the uneasiness in his heart.
Just now, the girl who walked in with a hot meal called "Dad", and Yang Blacksmith introduced, "Little brother, this is my daughter, called Niuniu, and there are two of us at home." The girl's skin was slightly dark, and she stared at Wu Yi with a pair of bright big eyes, and when she met Wu Yi's blazing eyes, she immediately lowered her head like a frightened rabbit.
The young girl in front of her has a slightly light brown complexion, a well-defined face, deep eye sockets, and thick and long eyelashes. The root of the nose is high and straight, the wings of the nose are narrow, the tip of the nose is small, and the facial features are extremely three-dimensional, with a charming temperament like a mixed-race beauty of Europe and the United States.
In the border city, intermarriage between various ethnic groups is also commonplace.
Wu Yi was not polite, picked up the food on the plate and began to gobble it up, knocking on the side of the blacksmith Yang to ask about the situation in Yangguan City while eating.
Blacksmith Yang knows a lot because of the identity of the craftsman who is half a duke. A year ago, the governor of Wu fell off the city and disappeared mysteriously, but fortunately, the main force of the Mengzhen army had been dispersed at that time, and the iron-blooded army achieved an unprecedented victory. However, due to the disappearance of the commander-in-chief, there were several riots in the army, and two months later, the prince of Liang arrived from the southern capital and brought the emperor's will to take over the military power.
The Yanxia Dynasty has been peaceful for a hundred years, the wind and rain are smooth, and the country and the people are safe. The rich provinces of the south have seen the development of primary industrialization, a large number of handicraft workshops have been merged and reorganized, and the production of steel has increased significantly, which has promoted the birth of some new mechanical lathes, making it possible to industrialize the processing of ordnance.
The good news is that gunpowder and machinery have not yet been combined, and weapons of mass destruction, such as guns, are unheard of.
This is really a blessing for the people of the Fengling Continent. The extent to which the heat weapon devastated the lives of the human being can be seen from the number of dead and wounded in the First and Second World Wars of that world.
Liang Wang Ye mobilized a large number of skilled craftsmen and various industrial resources from the southern capital to enrich the strength of the border city of Yangguan. In the current Yangguan City, the power of the Science Department is terrifying, and a large amount of metal, cement, and all kinds of strange materials are deployed by the officials of the department, and those Frankensteins who like to make troubles in the department have also invented a lot of strange objects.
In particular, the production capacity of ordnance reached its peak, concrete was used in large quantities for fortress fortifications, the range of repeating crossbows was longer, the rate of fire was higher, and the process of frying steel was becoming more and more mature. In just one year, the accumulation of massive resources has created a deformed prosperity of Yangguan City far ahead of the times. Large swaths of workshops have been built and put into operation in the military control zone, and the status of handicraft craftsmen such as masons, carpenters, and blacksmiths has undergone earth-shaking changes, from the former untouchables to the wages of the public.
After Meng Zhenren increased his troops at Yumen Pass, he launched several counterattacks against Yangguan City, but they were all repelled by the well-armed iron-blooded army. Thanks to the increasing prosperity of Yangguan City, the days of the craftsman's workshop are booming day by day, and the craftsmen of the three prefectures under the jurisdiction of Jizhou drink water and think of the source to thank the kindness of the governor of Wu, but it is not easy to declare it.
Because of some sensitive reasons, even at the top of the Iron and Blood Army, the former Grand Governor is an obscure person who can't be mentioned casually.
