Chapter 45: Equipment
Garys, who was waiting a little anxiously outside, was constantly circling around the store, and when he saw Jace and Ma Shen finally come out, he hurriedly stepped forward with a little excitement and asked, "What were you doing just now?"
"I didn't do anything, I just said something. Ma Shen saw that Gary was so excited, and those who didn't know thought that he was doing something bad in it just now, so he quickly changed the topic, "My armor has already been chosen, so you don't have to help me choose it." ”
"It's been chosen so quickly, don't you really need me to help you pick it?" said Garys with a look of loss.
"No need. After Ma Shen finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to this living treasure, turned to Jace behind him and said, "Boss Jace, you are busy first, I will wait here for a while, and then I will deal with my affairs when you are busy." ”
At this time, Jace had already adjusted his mood, and he couldn't see the hideous appearance just now, and said to Ma Shen with a smile: "Okay, Sir, I'll be fine right away." ”
Then he turned to Garys, who was still a little confused, and greeted him politely, "Your shield is ready, please come and take a look, Sir." ”
"What the hell did you just say, how did the relationship become so good all of a sudden? Gary muttered and walked towards the house, not digging into it, after all, Gary is also a smart man, and knows that everyone has their own secrets in their hearts, and once they dig deeper, they may not even be able to make friends.
Taking advantage of the gap between Jace and Garys looking at the shield, Ma Shen watched the pedestrians coming and going outside, including ragged homeless men, pot-bellied merchants, and more city dwellers in ordinary clothes.
Gradually, Ma Shen began to wander the world, just now Jace said to find the best mimeographer in King's Landing to help me print the coat of arms on the shield, I should really think about what kind of knight coat of arms should be chosen, and the knight coat of arms can also show their identity in the tournament, otherwise as the only knight who does not have a knight's coat of arms to participate in the tournament will definitely attract attention, of course, this is not the attention I expect in my heart.
So what kind of heraldic should be chosen, Ma Shen thought silently, one by one the patterns flashed through his mind, first of all, it must be domineering, and then it must be distinctive, and it is best that no one has chosen.
Ma Shen was entangled, and suddenly saw Jace coming over: "It's been taken care of, Sir"
"So fast. Ma Shen said in surprise.
"After all, it would have been nice to show Sir Garris the shield, it wouldn't take long. As Jace spoke, Ma Shen found that Gary walked out with a green shield, the shield in Garys's hand was made of wood as a whole, and there was a small notch on it, and in the middle of the shield was a fox emitting golden light, which should be the coat of arms of the Gerris family.
"There's something strange about this shield. Ma Shen looked at the small gap on the shield and said curiously.
"Because this is a special shield used in spear competitions, the above opening is used to put spears, originally the shield is like a spear in the tournament by the prime minister and their unified arrangement, but because the shield is also printed with a knight's coat of arms, so we made it ourselves. Gary laughed and explained Ma Shen's doubts, and did not say anything about Ma Shen's lack of common sense, because Gary knew that Ma Shen had only recently been canonized as a knight.
After explaining, Gary did not continue to bother Ma Shen, and politely said goodbye: "The shield is in hand, then I will go first, I hope to see your wonderful performance in the martial arts competition, Sir Ma Shen." ”
"It's an honor. Ma Shen nodded, watched Gary turn away, and then smiled and said to Jace behind him, "I thought about it for a while, the armor is the pale gold armor just now." "It's true that someone brought a pillow when I was dozing off, even if there was no Jace, I was already fighting with the magic mountain, and I dared to hit Xiao Nasha's idea, no one can hurt the people around me.
"Just now... Jace stopped talking.
Ma Shen knew what Jace was thinking, and said with a smile: "I thought about it later, too gorgeous armor will indeed become a thorn in the enemy's side on the battlefield, but it may be useful in the martial arts tournament, because its defense ability is good, and it can also reflect the sunlight and affect the performance of the magic mountain." ”
Jace, who seemed to have dropped his IQ sharply, suddenly realized that he agreed with this reason, and then went to get the armor just now under the bullshit reason that Ma Shen didn't understand.
Looking at the back of Jace who ran to get the armor, Ma Shen's expression couldn't help but become serious, this guy is not a good stubble, the reason I just gave was fake at first glance, but he agreed so easily, it seems that it takes a little more to cooperate with him, but what can be believed now is the hatred for the magic mountain revealed from Jace's eyes and tone, and this is enough.
Seeing Jace come out with the armor, Ma Shen hurriedly changed to a smiling expression: "Boss Jace, can you help me put on the armor?"
"Yes, Sir," Jace nodded, taking the armor and helping Ma Shen put it on.
With Jace's help, Ma Shen finally stumbled and put on the armor, tried to walk in front of a mirror, and suddenly found that he was wearing the armor with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, majestic hair, and the armor close to the body made his figure more prominent, just like a soldier in a military uniform, and it felt completely different.
It seems that I am really suitable for wearing armor, and I will always wear armor like Jaime in the future, Ma Shen thought happily, and then took a sword handed over by Jace, and pulled it out with a bang, a cold light imprinted on Ma Shen's face, making the hot blacksmith shop faintly covered with a chill.
Good sword, Ma Shen squinted his eyes at the blade as thin as an autumn cicada, and casually plucked a hair on his head, letting it fall lightly on the blade, but to Ma Shen's disappointment, the hair was only slightly slanted, and then it fell to the ground completely by rubbing the blade.
"Sir, you are... Jace asked curiously when he saw Ma Shen's movements.
"It's our custom there that when we get a good sword, we have to pull out a hair. Ma Shen said with some embarrassment, sure enough, the hair on the TV fell on the blade of the sword, and then the hair would be cut off by the edge of the sword The scene is an exaggerated effect, fortunately, he has been pretending to be more forced recently, and he has reached a profound realm, which is on par with some officials in Huaxia, and ordinary people can't see it.
"Oh," Jace snapped into his senses, and then he pulled out a white shield from a clump of hole.
"Give it a try, this shield, and if you can, let the mimeographer print on it. Jace said to Ma Shen, who had taken the shield.
"I'm going to participate in the competition soon, can't I have time to imprint the coat of arms on it now?" Ma Shen tried this shield, and also realized his mistake, he didn't expect to participate in the martial arts competition and have to prepare so much.
Jace roughly estimated the time, and then said affirmatively: "It's time, the mimeographer I took you to find has been in this industry for many years, and the painting is not only exquisite, but also very fast, if there is a sample, it can be completed in an hour." “
"What if there is no model?" Ma Shen was embarrassed to say that he didn't know what his coat of arms was.
"If you don't have a model, you might have to slow it down, but it's not too slow, and there's enough time before the tournament starts. Jace said, poking his head out and looking at the sky that was a little red as the sun went down: "Let's go, we still have time, I'll take you to the mimeographer's house, he must stay at home at this time, to be precise, he usually doesn't go out when he has nothing to do." ”
It seems that the mimeographer is an otherworldly version of the otaku, Ma Shen thought as he looked at Jace, who was closing the store.
