Chapter 36: The Armor and the Sword

……

However, despite what Buchen said, the banquet ended unhappily. The heavy mood made people have no intention of having fun at all, and even in the end, everyone present came up and gave a glass of wine, including all the girls.

This made Buchen quite cry and laugh, because he felt that he was being regarded as Jing Ke......

The next day, Buchen and the elf sisters came to Li Tiesheng's blacksmith shop again, but unlike last time, this time they came to pick up equipment.

"Brother of the Elderly...... Alas! ”

When Blacksmith Li saw them coming, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end it just turned into a helpless sigh, and the helplessness could not be concealed no matter what.

Buchen just smiled faintly and asked, "Brother Li, have you built all my equipment?" ”

Blacksmith Li nodded and made a gesture for them to follow him.

A moment later, Buchen and the others were taken to the door of a storehouse.

"It's all in there." Blacksmith Li said as he unlocked the door with the key.

He licked his lips expectantly, pushed the door and walked in.

This is not an ordinary storeroom, but a storeroom for high-grade armor and weapons, filled with weapon racks and armor racks.

"The armor is these three sets." Blacksmith Li pointed to the three armor racks placed in the middle of the room and said. "If there is anything you are not satisfied with, you can pick other things in this warehouse, you Brother Li and I don't want a penny, I will give them to you."

"Brother Li is so generous, but how can this make the little brother embarrassed?" Buchen asked with a smile.

"Brother, it's good to be able to help you." Blacksmith Li said.

Buchen shook his head with a wry smile, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Li, don't worry, junior brother, I will definitely come back with all my beards and tails." ”

With that, he walked over to the three armor racks.

These are three sets of Ceris-style Mingguang armor, judging from the polished surface and the delicate shape of the armor, Blacksmith Li really didn't blow it, he really had the means!

"It's all carburized as you say. I also tested it, and this method is indeed effective, and the protection of the armor has been improved a lot. Blacksmith Li said.

Buchen nodded, reaching out and stroking the breastplate of the bright light armor.

The cuirass composed of several large and small plate armor pieces not only perfectly outlines the outline of human muscles, but also provides the most reliable protection for the owner, and at the same time, it also ensures the wearer's physical flexibility as much as possible, if you add the surface carburizing process that does not require the submission, this armor is simply the pinnacle of armor manufacturing in this world!

"Great, so suitable!" Buchen said excitedly, and wanted to try it right now.

Seeing that Buchen was very satisfied, Blacksmith Li also smiled.

"No, I don't wear this!"

Unexpectedly, at this time, Fei Fei's dissatisfied voice came from the side.

Buchen and Blacksmith Li turned their heads to look, only to see Fei Fei and Ai Ai standing in front of an armor made for them, frowning, and the expression on their faces seemed to be a little uncertain.

"What's wrong? The armor is obviously very good! Buchen asked inexplicably.

"It's too heavy, I don't wear it!" Fei Fei said categorically.

Buchen's expression suddenly became very strange, "Are you still too heavy?" ”

"How?" Fei Fei glared at him angrily.

Buchen ignored her, but turned his head and asked Ai Ai: "Sister Ai Ai, are you too heavy?" ”

Ai Ai nodded with a bitter face, "Well, and wearing this armor will make a lot of noise, which is not conducive to my stealth." ”

Buchen stroked his forehead a little sadly.

These two girls are completely used to wearing light armor......

That's it! The twisted melons are not sweet, and they are originally light armor combat units, and wearing heavy armor is indeed a bit nondescript.

"Brother Li, I'm sorry. It seems that I am the only one who uses this armor. Buchen said to Blacksmith Li with a wry smile. But I'm not going to ask you for a refund. ”

Blacksmith Li waved his hand, "My own brother, don't you see anyone who doesn't have money?" Since you don't want armor, look at weapons! ”

As he spoke, he picked up an extra-long two-handed knife from the weapon rack and handed it to Buchen.

"...... this?"

Buchen took the knife and took a look, and found that this knife was not the one he ordered, this knife was much longer, the blade alone was five feet, and it was slightly curved, with a certain arc. The workmanship is also very good, with a thick iron blade engraved with a gorgeous pattern, a very close handle design, a delicate cowhide curl handle, and a gorgeous scabbard made of shark skin. Although I haven't seen the blade yet, just looking at this equipment is the best of the best!

"Cangchangchang!"

Buchen slowly pulled the knife out of its scabbard.

From the moment he pulled out the knife, a chilling cold light immediately projected on his eyes, making him feel a penetrating cold feeling from his bones!

When he pulled out the knife completely, lay it horizontally in front of him, and looked at it carefully, he found that the knife was not only cold, but also very beautiful in itself.

The surface of the polished blade is covered with patterns caused by the overlapping forging, which are as fine and uniform as flowing water, and with the cold and radiant blade, it gives people an alternative beauty that can only be expressed with metal materials, which is both delicate and cold, beautiful and cold, elegant and revealing a kind of indifference that repels people thousands of miles away.

If Ruochen is an expert who knows how to use knives, now Bacheng is already exclaiming loudly with a shocked face!

Don't think it's an exaggeration, because anyone who really knows knives understands what it means to have such a dense and even infinite layer of texture. It is a pattern that will appear after thousands of hammers and decarbonization by master craftsmen and thousands of folds and forging, which is synonymous with sharpening iron like mud and indestructible, and the pinnacle of all steel in the era of cold weapons!

But even if you don't know how to do it, you can see how valuable this knife is.

"Brother Li, this ......" Buchen looked at Blacksmith Li with a little hesitation.

Blacksmith Li smiled, "It's nothing, the treasure knife has to be a master to be worthy!" If it continues to be dusty in my warehouse, or falls into the hands of some mediocrity, won't it be a pearl in secret? ”

"......"

Buchen wanted to say something, but Blacksmith Li interrupted him, and directly pointed to the long knife and explained it to him: "Brother Xian, I believe you have also discovered that the shape of this knife is different from that of ordinary knives, not only is it much longer, but the blade also has a certain arc. ”

Buchen nodded, this knife reminded him of the curved bladed Tang knife he had seen in his previous life.

Over there, the elf sisters also heard some interest and gathered around.

Blacksmith Li continued to explain: "But don't worry, this arc will not affect the performance of this knife, but it has many benefits, not only a better center of gravity, a better feel, but also a greater force when chopping!" ”

The eyes that didn't listen to him lit up, if what Blacksmith Li said was right, after having this knife, he would be like a tiger!

"The other difference with the knife is the cutting method." Blacksmith Li pointed to the lower third of the blade and said, "Ordinary knives are cut from here, although this cutting angle can improve the durability of the knife and is not easy to break. However, it resembles an axe blade and lacks sharpness. ”

Next, he pointed to the cutting point of the knife, "And this kind of knife, which is cut from the upper third of the blade, is several times sharper than the former!" As long as you use the right knife, you can cut several people into two pieces with a single blow! If you have cultivated the Dou Qi of the Western Continent and the Dou Qi level can reach level seven or above, this sword will go out and cut more than a dozen or dozens of people into two pieces! (The prototype of this knife is a Tang knife brought back with a wide blade that Pojun has seen, not a Japanese knife.) Broken Army Press)

"Brother Li! The younger brother ......, "I don't know what to say if I'm not moved."

Blacksmith Li's gift is too heavy!

"Do you want to try it?" Blacksmith Li waved his hand and asked with a smile.

Buchen nodded excitedly.

Blacksmith Li said a little later, then walked out of the storehouse and told his apprentice Calf to go to a nearby butcher shop to buy a few meat sheep.

The calf answered, and ran out.

A moment later, Buchen and the others came to the courtyard of the blacksmith's shop, where a row of five fat sheep was already tied side by side.

"Brother Xian, swing the knife!" Blacksmith Li also said excitedly, how could he not be excited when he saw his most proud work in his life blooming?

"Okay!" He replied and walked over to the sheep. He drew his knife out of its sheath and threw it to Ai Ai next to him.

Then he took a slight step with his right foot, grasped the handle with both hands, and raised the long knife steadily above his head, and then exerted his strength from the dantian, pouring this force into his arms, and finally suddenly took a step and swung out with a knife!

The chilling sword light brought out a crescent-like afterimage in mid-air, and before the onlookers could react, they slashed the five sheep!

"Poof!"

"Huh!"

"Plop!" "Plop!"

Blood burst out, and the sheep screamed!

The five sheep were all cut in half by this knife, and the corpses fell to the ground one after another!

Blacksmith Li and the calf stared at the five sheep that died in disbelief, and the boss with his mouth open couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Buchen's knife is too fast, and it has completely exceeded their imagination!

"Sure enough, it's a good knife!" Buchen gave a thumbs up to Blacksmith Li excitedly!
