Zuo blacksmith asked Qian Yudao: "I don't know if you have ever heard of the public loss class?" ”

"Losing class?" Qian Yu was stunned: "You mean Lu Ban?" Of course I know, all of China...... Oh, the ancestors of all the skilled craftsmen in Quan Dahua are about the same status as Confucius of Confucianism, Lao Tzu of Taoism, and Shakyamuni of Buddhism, right? ”

Zuo Blacksmith was stunned: "The ancestor is so famous?" ”

Qian Yu suddenly realized that he might have taken it for granted, this society was different from what he knew. But he didn't care, just waved his hand: "Almost, you go on!" ”

Thinking of Qian Yu's magical steel-making method, Blacksmith Zuo guessed that he might have secrets that he didn't know, and he didn't think much about it: "Legend has it that the Gongyi class is a scholar and knows everything, and he once accepted six disciples, and each of these six disciples inherited one of his skills. Our ancestor of the Zuo family had the honor of being one of the six disciples. That's right, it's iron smelting, and the children of the Zuo family have made a living from it ever since.

You may not believe it, but my grandfather was a master craftsman of the Dahua Dynasty, casting 100 steels for the imperial court. When the first emperor was there, he had nothing to do, but when the new emperor ascended the throne, he wanted to smelt hundreds of steels in large quantities.

It was extremely difficult to cast 100 steels, and if you wanted to smelt a large number of them, you had to have enough manpower, so the new emperor wanted his grandfather to hand over this method, and promised to give it to the marquis.

It's just that the smelting method of 100 steels is the secret of the ancestors, how can it be easily taken out, even if the emperor can't do it, my grandfather pretended to agree, but he privately granted credit to his father and asked him to leave the capital overnight with the young me.

In order to prevent us from escaping, the emperor arranged a large number of surveillance personnel, but our Zuo family has been operating for generations, and there is still some foundation, although many people died that day, I was still escaped with my father.

After his father fled, he kept his name incognito, and waited until the rumors passed, and then quietly sneaked back to Beijing to investigate. It's a pity that my grandfather committed suicide by poisoning on the day we escaped.

Since then, my father has taken me to various parts of Dahua to make a living by striking iron. We tried our best to hide our identities to avoid the arrest of the imperial court, and the clinker was not discovered by the imperial eagle dogs, but was discovered by the white-clothed sect. These people in the White Clothes sect make a living by rebelling, and they covet my family's secret methods even more, so they do not hesitate to send a large number of people to rob them.

In order to protect me, my father was killed by them, fortunately, I was a little early in martial arts, otherwise I would have turned into a pinch of loess, how can I persist until today, it's a pity...... The secret of my Zuo family's unpassed on is going to be broken today. ”

Qian Yu looked at the blacksmith Zuo blankly, and the first thing he said was: "According to what you say, if I hand over the method of steelmaking to the imperial court now, at least I can be a marquis?" ”

Zuo Blacksmith's sad expression froze, and his expression was weird, Qian Yu couldn't describe it anyway.

After a long time, he said indignantly: "Brother Qian, if you listen to others, can't you listen to the point?" I'm talking about the sacrifice made by our Zuo family in order to protect the secret law, not some bullshit secret recipe for a knighthood! ”

Qian Yu was helpless: "But I think that's the point, as for your life experience, I've heard a lot more than this bizarre, no fuss." ”

The blacksmith turned around angrily and ignored him.

Qian Yu sighed: "Xiao Zuo, I don't know if you like to hear something." Don't you think it's too stupid for your Zuo family to break up their wives for a secret method? It's better to exchange it for a knighthood, it's definitely a good deal. Besides, this steelmaking method is in your hands, what else can you do except be a blacksmith for a lifetime, ping pong, and tired work? ”

Although the blacksmith left was motionless, looking at his demeanor, he should be listening.

Qian Yu continued: "I know that your idea of cherishing the broom is to leave a craft for future generations to eat. That's right, the craft can be inherited, but it can also score points! There is a higher price, and the fool will not sell it. Think about it, even if you can't change the title, the silver can be used, and it can be used to marry a wife and have children, and then for your son to study, and when he is admitted to the Jinshi and become a big official, isn't it much better than following you to fight for a lifetime? ”

After listening to Qian Yu's words, Zuo Blacksmith sighed appointedly: "Maybe we were wrong, but what's the use of saying this now?" Anyway, you know the forging method, so even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to keep it a secret. ”

What the two of them didn't know was that in another room thirty feet away, a trumpet-shaped object was hung on the wall, and the conversation between the two came out of the speaker, and the sound was clearly audible.

In addition to Zuo Qin in this room, there is also a young man standing, the young man is tall and long, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a short body, it is Cao Renxian, who is extremely difficult to deal with Bai Jingfei.

Zuo Qin stood in front of Cao Renxian with a respectful expression. When Qian Yu and Blacksmith Zuo stopped talking, he took off the horn on the wall: "Young Master Cao, what you said below is right, this kid surnamed Qian really knows the forging method of 100 steels." ”

Cao Renxian nodded with satisfaction: "You are doing a good job, I have seen this person, he is both timid and loves money, it should not be difficult to ask the secret method from his mouth, but you must pay attention to verify the correctness of the secret method." ”

Zuo Qin: "Of course, I still understand this question." ”

"You can rest assured. My father said that as long as you get the method, I can unconditionally fund you with 10,000 taels of silver, 1,000 sets of armor, and a number of long knives, short knives, and bows and arrows, which is enough for you to form a team of 1,000 people. Cao Renxian's words were very atmospheric.

Zuo Qin was overjoyed: "The young master can tell Master Cao as much as possible, please rest assured that the old man will definitely do things properly." ”

Seeing Cao Renxian away, thinking of the other party's assurance, Zuo Qin was in an extremely comfortable mood. He climbed up step by step from the bottom, and endured not only hardships, but also oppression from the top, especially the single left envoy, no matter how you look at him, it is not pleasing to the eye.

But what you can't dream of, I have done it, what does a heavily armed team of 1,000 people mean, no one knows better than him, the Baiyi Sect has worked hard for so many years, there are only two thousand teams in total, and he has increased by half at once, and who in the sect will dare to look down on himself in the future.

Thinking like this, he left the hut and walked along the aisle, left, right and left for a long time before stopping in front of a small pale red door: "Your Highness the Holy Maiden, the white-clothed right envoy Zuo Qin asks to see you." ”

A warm voice sounded: "Come in!" ”

Zuo Qin pushed open the door, and there was a white figure sitting faintly behind the screen in the room, he hurriedly prostrate on the ground, his face almost hanging down to the root of his thighs: "Zuo Qin greets the Holy Maiden!" ”

"How's things going?" The voice is still crisp, but I don't know if it's because of the screen, it seems extremely ethereal.

Zuo Qin said: "Back to the Holy Maiden, according to your plan, the blacksmith Zuo has already been captured. ”

The female voice was not surprised: "The blacksmith Zuo knows my other identity, and it is not difficult to catch him." But it is difficult to find out how to forge a hundred steels. In order to protect this law, their clan was almost completely killed and wounded. ”

Zuo Qin's face suddenly became strange: "Holy Maiden, you left early at that time, you may not know what happened later, if I am not mistaken, those who know the method of smelting a hundred steels, in addition to Zuo Blacksmith, there is also the Qian Yu who was captured." ”

"What?" The ethereal voice suddenly became clear and audible, and the white shadow got up like lightning: "You said that Qian Yu also understands the method of smelting a hundred steels?" ”

Although it was strange why the saintess who had always been calm reacted so violently, Zuo Qin still kept his duty: "That's right, I heard it with my own ears, and Cao Renxian, the son of Cao Dan, the garrison of the Datong Soldiers and Horses Division, was also there at that time. He also said on the spot that as long as he got the method of forging, he was willing to fund us to form a fully armed team of 1,000 people. ”

After a while, the female voice regained its ethereal voice again: "Okay, I know, you go down!" ”

Waiting for Zuo Qin to retreat, the woman muttered to herself: "I didn't expect that this person is not only proficient in poetry, but also understands the method of steelmaking, do I have to take action myself?" ”

The sun shines through the screen, reflecting the woman's peerless face than Huajiao!
