Chapter 63: The Unexpected
"By the way, you give me back the bow, I'm leaving. Eagle Xiang said.
He didn't know what kind of dumb riddle the young man on the other side was playing, since the tools were returned to the three elders, and the three elders couldn't see it, it was really not interesting to stay any longer, it was better to go back and make up for it, Yingxiang didn't want to waste time here.
The young man watched as Ying Xiang took the bow from his hand, then put the bow on his back and turned around and strode away.
Wait, how can the development of this matter be unexpected? Why is it that the furnace is said to be good, why is it completely not according to the routine, is it just a playful indulgence?
The young man was very depressed, he really couldn't understand Ying Xiang's intentions, and seeing Ying Xiang walking farther and farther, the young man hurriedly rushed up and grabbed Ying Xiang's sleeve to prevent him from leaving.
"Don't be in a hurry, let's have a good talk. The young man laughed.
"It's not getting early, I have to rush back to eat, and the dining hall will be closed for dinner. Yingxiang hadn't eaten for a day, and he was almost hungry with his chest against his back, and he kept touching his stomach.
The young man secretly gritted his teeth, but said with a smile on his face: "It's hard to come here, of course my brother has to invite you to dinner! Don't refuse, otherwise you won't give your brother face." ”
"Ah, thank you, brother. Now that the major matter of eating has been solved, Ying Xiang temporarily relaxed his heart and agreed.
In fact, Ying Xiang also wanted to stay a little longer, after all, he still hoped to see the Third Elder and ask him to help him improve the Cloud Breaking Bow, and maybe the Third Elder would be out of the customs if he waited a little longer.
Okay, you can do it. I thought you were going to pretend to refuse, but I didn't expect to agree to it as soon as I heard that I was invited to eat, which was really unexpected.
The young man secretly grinded his teeth, clenched his fists, and secretly said in his heart: I will endure it for the sake of hating iron ore, and I will endure it again.
Soon the wine and meat were put on the table, seven or eight dishes and a soup, quite hearty, and Ying Xiang nodded to express his satisfaction
The young man knocked on the side and was about to ask Ying Xiang when he would return the iron ore, thinking that Ying Xiang would talk to him about the conditions by eating, but he didn't expect that Ying Xiang was really just eating with his head bored, which was completely unexpected by him.
The basin in front of Ying Xiang was already piled high, he grabbed a large roast chicken leg in his left hand, and held a wine jug in his right hand.
Ying Xiang didn't listen to what the young man on the other side said, because his whole mind was focused on destroying the food in front of him.
"You eat too, don't talk all the time, I'm embarrassed to eat alone if I don't eat. Yingxiang's greasy hand grabbed the flask and wanted to toast to the young man.
"I ......" The young man's head suddenly grew a few times, how could he be in the mood to eat and drink, his chest hurt in anger, and he almost became mad at Yingxiang. But I was afraid that I would annoy Yingxiang, and I was afraid that Yingxiang would not return the iron ore even if he didn't need to hate it when he was angry.
"By the way, do you say that the third elder is likely to be out of the customs tonight? I really want to ask his old man to give me this bow to improve and improve, if he doesn't come out of the pass, I don't dare to disturb his old man, I heard that last time one of your senior brothers was beaten so that he couldn't sit on a stool for half a month. Ying Xiang said to himself very excited.
"I can't say this well, the old man didn't say hello in advance. Yingxiang, I won't go around the bend with you, do you remember the hate iron ore you took last time. "The young man went straight to the tunnel.
"Of course I do. Ying Xiang grabbed a piece of meat and chewed it and said, hating iron ore is such a rare ore, of course he will not forget.
"Aren't you going to use it as an arrowhead, this needs to be used in the furnace, and I can't be the master alone about the use of the furnace, but I have to get the master's consent. Otherwise, you can leave the ore here first, and then we will help you refine the hate iron after the master agrees to do so. The young man took a sip of wine from his glass, a faint smile on his lips.
"Oh, no, look at my ring!" Eagle Xiang proudly stretched out his right hand, intending to let the young man look at the fingerguard made of hated iron on his index finger.
The young man was angry: You are so playing tricks, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been scolded by the master. I'm talking to you about business, you show me your broken ring, look at your sister.
The young man was about to push Ying Xiang's hand away, but suddenly stopped all movements, and just looked at the ring on Ying Xiang's index finger.
The style of the ring could not be more ordinary, simply without any superfluous decoration and without delicate and intricate patterns. What attracts young people is the material of this ring. The cool gray metallic sheen constantly flows on the ring, giving it a stunning feeling.
"This ...... It's ......" the young man stammered a little.
"It's made of hated iron, how about it, not bad?" Ying Xiang took off the ring and handed it over, wanting the young man to take a good look and appreciate the special color of hated iron.
The young man rubbed his eyes, and then brought the ring to his mouth, and after he sighed, he wiped it with his sleeve again, and the cold gray luster was dazzling.
His voice trembled a little: "It's a hatred of iron, it's really a hatred of iron, it's so pure to refine, and there are almost no impurities." ”
"That's right! I'm not bragging, it's really hating iron, and it's extremely pure. Ying Xiang said proudly. Secretly thought: Can the gray-level powerhouse spend the true yuan to refine it with the real fire?
"You...... How do you do it. The young man grabbed Ying Xiang's collar and asked nervously.
"It was the patriarch's grandfather who helped, and he used real fire to help me smelt the hate iron ore and cast the arrow, which made a fingerguard without leaving a little hate iron. Ying Xiang replied honestly.
"I'm such a pig, why didn't I think of it?" the young man wanted to cry without tears, he forgot that he could smelt the iron ore without using a furnace.
I didn't expect that the patriarch and his old man would personally help Yingxiang, but now he was unlucky, and he originally planned to make meritorious service to hate iron ore.
But this time, the hatred of iron ore is gone, it has been cast into an arrow, and it was the patriarch who intervened, and his mission this time was a complete failure.
"Drink, drink, we're not drunk today. The young man took the initiative to pick up the flask and began to pour wine into his mouth, feeling very depressed. There is wine today and drunkenness tomorrow, no matter what will happen to him tomorrow, the young man has already been released.
"Drink, deep feelings. Yingxiang likes to drink with people like this the most, and he suddenly became elated.
The two of them drank so freely, and as the drunkenness deepened, the more they chatted, the more speculative they became, and the relationship was almost like brothers.
"You bastard, do you know that taking away the hate iron ore will cause me to be scolded?" said the young man with a wine burp and pointed to Ying Xiang's nose.
"You were scolded? It's good you weren't spanked, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to sit on a stool. Ying Xiang laughed, and took the chopsticks to pull away the young man's fingers.
The young man stretched out his hand and scolded Ying Xiang's head: "You little bastard, can't you expect me to be better? ”
"Didn't your master say that I can choose, how can I scold you?" said Ying Xiangqi.
"I don't understand this, my master is distressed and reluctant, so I am naturally unlucky. "The young man didn't have a good airway.
"Ahh Eagle Xiang said.
"Stop talking nonsense, take out your feather arrows and show me, I'd like to see what I'm in. The young man patted Ying Xiang on the shoulder.
Ying Xiang immediately took out the quiver from the Qiankun bag, and the seven feathered arrows were neatly arranged in it, and the cold light flickered at the arrow.
As soon as the young man saw the good things, he couldn't take his eyes off them, and he took a closer look at the feather arrow, and the more he looked at it, the more his eyes glowed. He stretched out his finger and flicked the arrow lightly, and suddenly a crisp humming sound was heard, and the sound lasted for a while.
"Tsk, tsk, this sharpness, this arc, this bloodletting trough......" the young man kept muttering, and the more he looked at it, the more he appreciated it.
Suddenly, the young man stood up, grabbed Ying Xiang's shoulders with both hands and cried and laughed: "Brother, it's worth it, it's really worth it." I believe that the master has nothing to say about this workmanship, even if I am scolded for it, it is worth it. It's so much better for you to make it so perfect than to put it in a treasure trove, you're so good!"
Yingxiang is also very happy, it is so exciting that his work has been recognized by others.
"Drink, drink, I'm happy today, I'm open to drinking, I'm not afraid when I'm drunk, I'll stay here with my brother when I'm drunk. The young man said with a big tongue.
Young men generally get drunk quickly, and after a few words of drinking, they fall asleep on the table.
It wasn't interesting to be left alone to drink, so Ying Xiang put down the flask in his hand and looked around to see if there was anything interesting.
There are more than a dozen weapons in the stone house, and Ying Xiang picks up each one to enjoy and learn from its merits. There was a small room behind the stone house, and Ying Xiang walked in curiously,
Several of the weapons in the small house were noticeably more advanced than those outside, and there was a simple stone table with unfinished iron tools and hammers on it.
After looking around, there was nothing interesting, and Eagle Xiang was about to leave when he saw a tool under the table. Ying Xiang kindly bent down to pick up the tools, but he didn't expect to hit his head on the stone table when he stood up.
The stone table was slammed, and it hurt, and Ying Xiang's head suddenly rose with a bag. A clay pot on the stone table gurgled and rolled down the corner of the table, and Ying Xiang hurriedly reached out to stop it, but it was too late.
It's miserable, it's a disaster!
Ying Xiang closed his eyes and did not dare to look at the tragic end of the clay pot, and the long-awaited sound of breaking did not come. Ying Xiang opened his eyes, only to find that the clay pot had fallen to the ground intact, which was really strange.
It's not broken, it's incredible. Eagle Xiang's eyes widened, and what was happening in front of him was clearly beyond his expectations.
Ying Xiang hurriedly picked up the clay pot and checked it carefully, there was really no damage, picked up the clay pot Ying Xiang pinched it a little harder, it was strange, it was as hard as iron.
It's weird, it's weird, it's obviously a clay pot, how can it have an iron-like texture.
Ying Xiang became interested, holding the clay pot and turning over and over again, Ying Xiang noticed a strange red pattern on the body of the clay pot near the bottom.
The pattern is a bright red color, not as big as a small fingernail, and the pattern is very complicated. At first glance, Eagle Xiang only felt a little dazzled, but when he looked closely, he found that the veins of this pattern were full of a mysterious mystery.
