Chapter 159: There are mountains and rivers under your feet
The people of Beiliang only know that there is a group of "people behind the mountain" living in the north of Qingliang Mountain, and they have no way of knowing what they do and what their identity is. The back mountain of Qingliang Mountain is also known as Beiyin Mountain, and it has always been a forbidden place. A wheelchair car slowly descended the mountain, Xu Weixiong wrapped a thick black fur, two fingers gently held the neckline, there is a small piece of navy blue building at the foot of the mountain, inconspicuous, she naturally knows that the real Beiliang Machinery Manufacturing Bureau is built under the ground, the perennial lights are as bright as day, when Liyang devoured the Spring and Autumn Period, the Mo family craftsman for the Zhao family out of the dead force, Daji Cangsheng thought that he could retire after his death, be alone, and retire to the mountains and forests to do some learning, but with the urine nature of the Zhao family, plus the old Shoufu of Liyang has been derogatory to the Mo family as the "Spring and Autumn Rogue Tenth Country" , Thousands of Mozi scattered throughout the court were slaughtered, especially Gu Jiantang and several generals in the army, almost all of them evaporated from the world overnight, and even the corpses could not be found, only less than 100 people remained, and they survived under the protection of the wings of the Xu family, among which the two old men of the great master Song Changsui and Yang Guangdou were respected, Song Changsui was good at weapon forging, and Yang Guangdou was good at offensive and defensive deduction, and they were all proud protégés of the old giant Zuo Qilian. During the period of filial piety, Xu Fengnian, who was pushing the cart behind him, went to the Machine Creation Bureau to "chase the soul and ask for his life", and urged Song Changsui's master and apprentice to step up the construction of the talisman with his dead face, as well as to discuss the western line deduction with Yang Guangdou The geographical map of Qingliang Mountain, from the hands of Xu Fengnian and the apprentice of the master Song Changsui Cao Wei, relying on this map, want to enter Qingliang Mountain and then close to the Wutong Courtyard, it is not difficult, but if you want to find the exact location, you can think about it, it can be said that His Royal Highness the Prince and Cao Wei are both scourges, and the bad water in the stomach is comparable, when he was a teenager, Xu Fengnian was beaten by Cao Wei with his skills and his nose was blue and swollen, if Xu Xiao wanted to go to the Machine Building Bureau to help his son find the field, Song Yang and the two old men raised their heads and picked their nostrils and squinted their eyes and picked out their ears, and they didn't know if they asked three questions, anyway, they wanted to find Cao Wei's child in that maze, Unless Xu Xiao is determined to use two or three thousand armor soldiers to dig three feet into the ground, but then Xu Fengnian learned to be smart, bought many peers from the Machinery Manufacturing Bureau, and partnered to suppress Cao Wei, and blocked the road together to block the set of sacks, which is considered to be a few rounds back, in short, Xu Fengnian and Cao Wei, who is a few years older, have a relationship that is not harmonious, and there is a bit of natural discord and fate, but each has its own weaknesses, for example, Xu Fengnian said that he wanted to frame someone insidiously, or that he was tinkering with some fantastical kitsch objects, Cao Wei no matter how reluctant he was to chatter, he really did things more quickly than anyone else。 Xu Weixiong arrived at the door of the Machinery Bureau, but did not go in, leaving Xu Fengnian to walk in alone, and she made a detour, and the wheels followed the quiet bluestone slab path and turned back to the sunny side of Qingliang Mountain.
Xu Fengnian is familiar with the road into the machine manufacturing bureau, unimpeded, the wall is embedded with lights of the tunnel continues to extend to the bottom, as if there is no end, the machine manufacturing bureau claims to be able to fill an inverted cool mountain, the scale is huge, it is conceivable, Xu Fengnian zigzag and walked for half an hour, through seven secret rooms, twelve secret passages, and finally walked to the bottom of a place, with a wide field of vision, there is a two-story high refining furnace, there are more than a dozen ladders around the furnace, more than ten zhang away from the furnace, there is a bookcase, full of scribbled drawings, and there are countless scattered under the table, several red-faced old men argue there, occasionally pointing at the stove, Xu Fengnian didn't disturb the scolding of these old men, walking in front of the stove, and was red by the firelight, this stove is called "Dingqi" It is said that Daqin won the world, confiscated the world's iron and cast Jiuding, and used to suppress the two cities, three rivers and four mountains, it is the furnace built by the predecessors of the Mo family, Xu Fengnian smiled, and when he was in reverie, he was jumped up and patted on the head, Xu Fengnian was too lazy to turn around, and slapped the guy who didn't know how to count the etiquette lightly, and there was a burst of scolding and scolding behind him, Xu Fengnian has been much more honest since he practiced the knife, but the nature of the country is easy to change, and the surname Cao still can't help but provoke a few times, and then this is the end。 Cao Wei rubbed his cheeks and stood side by side with Xu Fengnian, this young man was short in stature, he didn't lose when he lost people, he got along with Xu Fengnian, and liked to stand on tiptoe, but even so, he was still half a head shorter than Xu Fengnian. Xu Fengnian said with a smile: "I heard that the 'great-grandson' was tossed out by you?"
Cao Wei said triumphantly: "Compared with the sharpest 'old ancestor', the sharpness is one point worse, compared to the strongest 'grandson', the firmness is half a point worse, and compared to the lightest 'father', it is only half a point heavier." Now you know that the Tao is powerful, right?"
Xu Fengnian said with a sneering face: "It's all a little bit worse, and there is no one that is the best in the Beiliang knife in the past dynasties?"
Whether it is the ancestor or the great-grandson, it is Xu Fengnian and Cao Wei who gave the nickname of the Beiliang knife, the ancestor is the first generation of the real Xu family knife, the early Spring and Autumn War, the Xu family soldiers and horses are relying on this sharp first generation of cool knife to fight the world, can be described as invincible, in the middle and late Spring and Autumn Period, such as the end of the conquest of Xishu and Xiangfan, it was replaced by the second generation of knives, sharp is not as good as the first generation of "ancestors", but relatively lighter and stronger, to enter the Beiliang, the third generation of the Beiliang knife "Dad" , and made a new trade-off, now many Beiliang Dao neighboring states and counties of the Beiliang knife hanging, most of them are the most wonderful "son" of the knife arc curve, to the "grandson" generation, the Beiliang knife has gone through five generations, and then in the hands of Cao Wei, it is considered six generations in the same house, ushered in the youngest "great-grandson", these six kinds of cool knives, unless it is a veteran of a hundred battles who are used to weapons, it is difficult to distinguish the difference, and Xu Cao and the two privately became the fifth generation of "Xu family knife" of "grandson" It is already recognized by everyone as the most offensive and defensive war knife in the art of war of the two dynasties of Liyang and Beimang, whether it is the foot war horse battle is the first in the world, several generals of the Northern Mang and Southern Dynasties and Zhao Bing, the king of Guangling, Zhao Yi, the king of Liyang Yan, these famous martial artists, are not unthinking of large-scale imitation, but the seemingly simple single handle of the knife is baked, involving the texture of iron ore, iron mining efficiency, furnace heat, forging process, Mold formulation, etc., and even to take into account the size of the body and arm of the knife soldier, the required knowledge is complex and difficult, Beiliang in addition to the outstanding iron ore texture and craftsmen exquisite craftsmanship including many advantages, the most important thing is that Beiliang Iron Riding Wu guarded the side for 20 years, the knife this thing, drink has not drunk blood, drink more and drink less, will correspondingly affect its spirit.
Don't look at Xu Fengnian's sarcastic "great-grandson" refined by Cao Wei, it doesn't sound good, but in fact, you don't need to see the knife with your own eyes and touch the knife with your own hands, you can already determine the domineering of this generation of new "Xu Dao" from just a few words, it is not the sharpest, the most solid, but it is definitely the most durable killing weapon!
Sure enough, Cao Wei, who felt insulted, jumped to his feet and scolded: "You are a layman, don't touch the 'great-grandson' in your life if you have the ability!"
Xu Fengnian was too lazy to worry about him, stretched out his hand, and soon Cao Wei's brothers and sisters ran to offer three new knives with both hands, this generation of Xu Dao is also a "great-grandson", but according to the usual practice, the cavalry infantry army and the Lingzhou generals who guard the rear, the three sabers have their own subtle weight, generally speaking, the Beiliang Iron Cavalry, especially a few elite heavy cavalry, with the Liang knife must be the most new and outstanding, as long as the new knife is present, it can be replaced almost immediately, and the ordinary defenders in Lingzhou, such as those who are not the town army of Tongguan Danger, should " "sluggishness" is much slower. Xu Fengnian took a war horse saber, held the handle of the knife in his left hand and held the knife in his chest, wiped the blade with the fingers of his right hand, turned a blind eye to the bleeding from his index finger, squinted his eyes, knocked on the knife more than a dozen times, pricked up his ears to listen to the slight echo that ordinary people could not recognize, nodded with satisfaction, and the warm smile slowly spread on that clear face. Several young Mozi who were regarded as traitors by Cao Wei were relieved and smiled at each other.
Xu Fengnian was about to speak, when he heard a loud roar, an old man called "surnamed Xu", Xu Fengnian handed the knife to Mozi, and walked to the bookcase, Song Changsui, a master of the Mo family, put his hands behind him, full of wine, skimmed his head, and motioned for Xu Fengnian to follow behind, the old man with a beard like weeds walked straight to a newly opened secret room, Yang Guangdou was not as raunchy as Song Changsui, wearing a green shirt, clean and refreshing, walking beside Xu Fengnian, and said softly: " According to the meaning of the prince, Lao Song took twenty years to get it right, and he had to drink six or seven pots of wine every day to refresh himself. By the way, Lord Wang, how about the little prince's talisman armor? How many times did it take off Murong Baoding's offensive? Changed it to two catties, did it exceed the 16,000 jin we initially preset? How much toughness did the talisman grow by itself and how much did it need to be improved and perfected? If the Heavenly Tribulation Purple Thunder is measured by the number of eight or nine or ninety-nine, how heavy should it be, Lord Wang, you should give us an exact number, and the machine building bureau can be targeted, we can't let us spend our efforts and build a mirage in the end, which is not in line with the rules of my Mo family. The prince must also know the temper of the old man Song, and he has a fundamental and inquiring temperament......"
Song Changsui snorted coldly in front of him.
Xu Fengnian took out a codex that had been prepared for a long time from his arms, and said with a smile: "I have written these things on the secret book, and Elder Yang can follow the steps step by step." ”
Yang Guangdou put it in his sleeve and nodded with a smile.
Song Changsui pushed open the door of the secret room, and his vision suddenly opened up.
There are mountains and rivers at your feet!
This is probably the largest and most elaborate sand table in history, including the three states of Beiliang, the land of the exiles, the Western Regions, the Western Shu and the Southern Zhao, as well as all the thirteen states of the Beimang Dynasty, to be exact, this is a whole western front that runs through the world!
Song Changsui didn't have the slightest sense of accomplishment, stared at the vast sand table, and said in a solemn tone: "Twenty major rivers, sixty-seven mountains, and one hundred and forty cities and military towns are all in it. According to the configuration of the forces of several parties described in the spy report, the number of chess pieces was also stacked on top of thousands instead of 1,000 people, which was barely clear at a glance. The reason why I have been helping you do this day and night is that I sent people under the fence of Momen, and the Xu family helped us to save the lives of the remnants of the thieves for more than 20 years. Second, your plan is very much in line with my appetite, for me Song Changsui, there is nothing in the world that cannot be accurately calculated, as small as the wealth of a family, as large as the national strength of a country, and the realm of land immortals, it can be used to calculate. Xu Fengnian, you tell me the truth, Beimang really wants to fight the Western Front first?"
Xu Fengnian snorted and said calmly: "It was the Empress Beimang who said it herself, now it depends on when and where the fight starts." We don't have to expect Bei Liang to have two feet to break into the big quagmire on the east line of Liyang first, and Yang Lao will follow the expected deduction of Mr. Wang of the Yin Xue Palace, and he will have to completely overturn and start over. ”
Yang Guangdou sighed and said guiltily: "It was Yang who was not good at learning and misplanning, and misled the general and the prince." At that time, the second county lord didn't remind Yang to plan for the worst, but Yang deduced several times, but he didn't think that the eastern front of the Beimang Taiping Order had any chance of winning......"
Xu Fengnian waved his hand, interrupted Yang Guangdou's words, and said softly: "It's okay, Yang Lao doesn't have to blame himself, the gains and losses on the desk, in the final analysis, have to give way to the victory or defeat of one tough battle." ”
Song Changsui sneered and said: "Old man Yang, listen to what you say, this kid looks down on you strategists who talk on paper." It's really the same as Xu Cripple, I don't believe in anything, in the final analysis, I only believe in the knife in my hand!"
Xu Fengnian and Yang Guangdou both laughed at it.
Cao Wei didn't know when he sneaked into the sand table, walked out of an arc, squatted in one place, and thought endlessly.
Xu Fengnian looked at the back of this guy, the two are natural rivals, Xu Fengnian is very familiar with Cao Wei, this short man is very cheap, belongs to the kind of guy who can sit and never stand and lie down and never sit, very shameless, not familiar with him, after a few words, he will start to feel that he owes scolding, and after getting acquainted, he will feel that this guy is really fucking underwhelmed. Cao Wei is afraid of death and blood, but he just thinks that one day he can lead the troops to fight, and he dreams of going to Jin Ge Iron Horse in person, other people hope to pay homage to the marquis, they are all running for a splendid future and holding authority, Cao Xiaozi is going for fun, Xu Fengnian has not hereditarily replaced the king of Beiliang, Cao Wei is still quiet, and the meeting is nothing more than a quarrel, this time, Xu Fengnian became the king of Beiliang, Cao Wei is like playing chicken blood, a cat named Chun, shouting to ask Xu Fengnian for thousands of light horses, and then run to the Western Regions to hide, the most sneaky long-distance attack, in his words, that is, he wanted to go directly to Beimang's asshole, Xu Fengnian ignored him at first, and this kid threatened to take the sixth generation of "Xu Dao" in exchange for the command of thousands of cavalry, and it turned out that he really made the "great-grandson" out of him. Cao Wei's art of war is from a wild road, and Xu Fengnian is not sure of the depth, but Cao's style can be used as an example to illustrate, just like playing chess, Cao Wei is unwilling to sit down and enter the game, he will feel too tired, why bother to lay out the first hand and take the long test in the middle game, Cao Wei will only watch the game of the two with cold eyes, and will also watch the chess without saying a word, but when the two sides are finally going to end, he will randomly take out the chess pieces that should not fall on the chessboard, knock it down, and say that the overall situation has been decided, and he will say that Lao Tzu can solve the official game of two hundred pieces with one or two chess pieces. This kind of scoundrel guy, who doesn't want to smoke him to death? But Cao Wei is only afraid of one person, that is, Xu Weixiong, on fighting, chess, on the art of war, on quarrels, Cao Wei has no chance of winning, he really has to obey, Cao Wei used to be short, and the mantra was to wait for Lao Tzu to become the general of the country, if you dare to look down on me, I will cut off your head, and then come to see who is taller. As a result, Xu Weixiong was lukewarm, saying that it was Cao Wei's height, it was useless to just cut off other people's heads, and you had to cut your waist to be taller than others. After that, Cao Wei was no longer happy to say this mantra.
Before Xu Fengnian left, he was scolded by the improvised old man Song for being a bloody dog, Song Changsui scolded this guy for being a loser who didn't know how to run a family, and he hadn't been able to win Cao Yun so far, scolding this guy for accepting the second holy decree of the imperial court, taking over the title of Shangzhu State and accepting the decision of the imperial court not to regain affection, scolding him for being spineless, and scolding Xu Fengnian for sacrificing his roots, and not paying so much attention to the scholar and snubbing the generals, anyway, this old man thought of what to scold, he Song Changsui was dissatisfied with anything, and the young King of Beiliang was sprayed with a spit on his face, his smile remained unchanged, and he didn't return his mouth, and stood there with his sleeve to wipe his face several times。 If it weren't for Yang Guangdou to stop him, Song Changsui, who was so energetic, would almost roll up his cuffs and directly point at the nose of the new feudal king and scold.
Xu Fengnian waited until the old man had no strength to scold anymore, and then turned around and left helplessly.
Yang Guangdou stood at the door and said helplessly: "Old Song, almost, Xu Fengnian is the king of Beiliang after all." ”
Song Changsui glared and said, "What's the matter, you can't be scolded when you become the king of the domain?"
Yang Guangdou glanced at the young man's distant back, and said softly: "It's good to save some face for him, you and I both know that this young man is not easy to be in charge." If you were someone else, you would have been scolded like this, and you would have already been slapped in the face. ”
Song Changsui snorted coldly: "He dare?!"
Yang Guangdou smiled and asked, "Do you really think he doesn't dare?"
Song Changsui was stunned, and said with a smile: "This kid, no." ”
Yang Guangdou nodded slowly and said, "That's right." ”
Song Changsui sighed softly: "I don't bother to scold others, and I don't want to scold." Today's Beiliang, the old guys who can scold him are almost gone, and if I don't even scold him, this kid is really lonely. ”
Cao Wei sneaked up behind the two masters, and said with a shy face: "The knife has also been made, that guy can't help but give me a soldier, right?"
Song Changsui slapped Cao Wei's head with a slap, "Look at your little bit of talent, while playing with eggs!"
Cao Wei said angrily: "This guy is so stingy that he won't give me anything?!
Yang Guangdou blinked, stretched out a palm, flipped it over, and said with a playful smile: "This number, you can't run away." ”
Cao Wei was stunned on the spot.
Xu Fengnian walked back to the ground, carrying a new knife from the Xu family, walked up to the top of Qingliang Mountain along the back-yin mountain road, sat on the stone bench at the bottom of the building, pulled out the cool knife from the scabbard that might be dyed with blood on the border, and flicked his fingers lightly.
Great rivers and mountains, endless good heads.
