The real beneficiaries of the war are not necessarily the people and the soldiers, but the real victims of the war are absolutely innocent people, as well as countless soldiers whose names are unknown.

The signs at the exit reflect the displacement of the people in the five star fields.

At present, it is not only the ironclad cockroach that has caused huge casualties to the ordinary people of the five star regions, but also the war, in fact, the casualties caused by the human war to the common people far exceed the casualties caused by the ironclad cockroach.

In addition to the direct casualties caused by the war, in the course of the war, there were also a large number of people who suffered mass casualties due to illness, injury, hunger, and cold......

……

Under the gaze of countless pairs of family seekers, Zhou Sen followed Xiao Jingjing through the long pass and entered the galaxy No. 117 interstellar station.

Passing through the pass and entering the post station is a huge square, the square is full of people, the flow of people is weaving, and there are dense crowds everywhere.

In the crowd, there are some delinquent teenagers shuttling around, and they look like thieves.

Thief!

For the human beings of the five star fields, the title of "thief" only exists in historical records, because, during the period of the human interstellar federal government, the profession of thief has disappeared, and now, this profession has revived.

Xiao Jingjing seemed to have a certain understanding of No. 117 Star Station, and after entering the square, she went straight to the right side of the square in front of her.

There is a narrow street on the right side of the square, which is extremely crowded with people, and the shops on both sides of the street are selling some local crafts and some local snacks.

Backstreets!

When walking into this street, Zhou Sen saw that there was an excuse to erect a wooden antique archway, on which the word "back street" was written, and the font was vigorous and powerful, and it was three points into the wood.

The five of them ate a little food in a small spot in the back street to fill their stomachs, and then found a cold weapon shop on this street.

Swordsman.

There is a plaque on the armory shop, and the plaque reads two large gilded characters - Swordsman.

The knife shop is not big, the store is about five meters wide, surrounded by all kinds of cold weapons, and there are some cold weapons hanging on the wall, the cold weapons are clearly marked with prices, and there are no staff, and there are hanging on the wall to choose their own electronic payment.

Although cold weapons are not available, some common cold weapons are available. Bows, crossbows, spears, sticks, knives, swords, spears, shields, axes, axes, halberds, halberds, whips, maces, hammers, forks, palladium, ge, rope darts, meteor hammers, wolf's tooth hammers, dragon's whisker hooks, flying claws, soft whips, brocade lassoes, iron lotus, etc.

In addition to cold weapons, there are also some metal armor, but the armor is placed in one room.

Unlike cold weapons, metal armor looks modern and does not have an ancient style, and the armor is not only designed with modern elements, but also very much in line with the ergonomic department.

Times!

Zhou Sen is a refiner, and he has a natural affinity for cold weapons, and when others choose their favorite weapons, he appreciates them carefully.

"Bell bell ...... Bell ......"

Just as Zhou Sen was enjoying it carefully, he faintly heard the sound of forging inside.

Could it be that these cold weapons are all hand-forged?

Zhou Sen's heart moved, and he followed the sound and walked inside. In fact, you can only go inside, because this cold weapon shop is a store, but the store is relatively deep.

The place where Zhou Sen passed by are some semi-finished products of cold weapons, and some lumpy metals, obviously, this place should be used as a warehouse, as for those semi-finished products, it is likely that the store will make up for what is lacking, and this semi-finished product can save a lot of time.

Sure enough, it was artificially forged.

Inside, two shirtless men are pounding a piece of reddish iron, the shape of which is supposed to be a knife, but it is impossible to tell what it is.

Zhou Sen was immediately attracted, although he was a refiner, it was the first time he paid attention to this ancient profession, after all, this ancient profession had long since disappeared.

The two seemed to have become accustomed to the observation of others, and they were not surprised, and they still pounded the reddened iron without distraction.

Although Zhou Sen learned about this profession for the first time, he was not ignorant, of course, he only knew some simple rules.

It is the master who strikes the iron and takes the hammer, and he is also the one who makes the ruthless and the commander.

Whether it is a sledgehammer, a small hammer is a round end, a rectangular end, when the red-hot iron is hammered on the iron pier, it is necessary to hold the temperature hammering time, and the initial shape of the hammer, in fact, this is quite complicated, there are no years of experience in both hands, ordinary people can not operate, because the small hammer is played with one hand, and the other hand should be beaten with a long handle of this piece of iron, which is not easy, almost three times the energy and force of taking a sledgehammer, a big hammer is about more than ten catties with a long handle, waving it, As long as there is a certain amount of force, you can hammer it a few times.

The small hammer master is a one-handed hammer, this hammer weighs about 6 catties, and the other hand needs about 4 catties of iron, because the high temperature will be transmitted by the iron, the iron shovel handle is longer, the lever principle is sandwiched with the high temperature of the iron, the hand is floating, although one end is placed on the iron pier, the iron pier surface is spherical, the iron block placed on it is large, and the small hammer is hit down, and it takes a lot of strength to stabilize.

The work of the person who makes the small hammer is distracted, the left and right hands work differently at the same time, the force of the two hands is unbalanced, and the direction of the sledgehammer is carefully observed with the eyes, constantly moving and adjusting, this strength is three times the hard work of making the sledgehammer, but also more stable, you can see that the blacksmith master is not to stand habitually after striking the iron, mostly hunchbacked, feet outward, so that the sledgehammer will not.

Master Xiao Hammer is a middle-aged and elderly man, the skin on his face is wrinkled, he looks very old, but his body is very strong, the muscles on his body are sharp and angular, and the muscles tremble with the fall of Xiao Hammer, as if he contains endless power.

Sledgehammer is a teenager.

The boy is about seventeen or eighteen years old, with dark skin, a round face, and the muscles on his body are not as angular as those of middle-aged and elderly people, but they are very round and high, giving people the feeling that they are about to explode at any time.

Zhou Sen watched the reddened piece of metal change under the two hammers, one large and one small, and lost his mind for a while.

Is it wrong to be a refining technique?

Zhou Sen's refining does not have the link of forging and hammering, under normal circumstances, he directly melts the metal into the shape he needs, and what he does is mainly to make the metal fully melted.

According to the explanation of modern knowledge, in the process of repeated heating and hammering of metal, the O2 in the air oxidizes the C and other impurities in the pig iron into slag and removes it, so as to achieve the C content required by steel.

The problem now is that Zhou Sen thinks that his refining weapon can completely remove the impurities, and there is no need to beat it at all......

……

"Yoshiki!"

"Yoshiki!"

"I'm in there." Just when Zhou Sen was thinking, Xiao Jingjing's voice sounded outside.

"What are you doing? We've all chosen, don't grind. Xiao Jingjing walked in, her bright eyes swept over the old and the young and then said to Zhou Sen.

"Wait a minute." Zhou Sen turned to the old man and bowed to him, "May I ask the old man, can you recommend an armor-piercing weapon?" ”

"What armor did you break?" The old man stopped, wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked.

"The exoskeleton that can break the iron-armored giant cockroach, and the exoskeleton armor that can break it!" Zhou Sen asked respectfully.

"As we all know, it can be called a ferocious cold weapon, in addition to killing the enemy indestructible, it must also have a very high attainment in armor piercing, there are only a handful of weapons that can do this in history, but in this very small number of weapons, it must be the enemy's most feared existence on the battlefield, for this ancient army in order to build these cold weapons, it can be said that a lot of energy and financial resources have been invested, but what makes them more gratifying is that these cold weapons have contributed good records and played a major role in winning the battle......" The old man seemed to open up the conversation box at once, and began to talk endlessly.

"Grandpa, you're talking nonsense again!" The young man interrupted the old man mercilessly.

"Ahem...... I have a bad problem with this, and when it comes to cold weapons, it goes on endlessly, and there is no way, so I have to make one for customers to choose by themselves, so as not to be able to stand my nagging. The old man looked embarrassed.

"Hehe, the old gentleman has a good temperament, it doesn't matter, we have time, you just say!" Zhou Sen said with a smile. Just as a few people were talking, Sun Wenliang and the others all walked in.

"Let's be straightforward, my grandson is staring at me...... I personally recommend the mace, this cold weapon is made of thick stainless steel as a whole, with a length of about 1.2 meters and a weight of up to 20 catties, which is generally not used by thin soldiers. This weapon used to dominate the battlefield of the ancient earth, the best thing is the nail head on its hammer, which not only can you use to clamp down on the attack of enemy weapons, but also under the vigorous swing, the fierce smash can directly hammer the soldier wearing a plate armor helmet and smash the watermelon, which is very perverted. ”

"1.2 meters...... It's too long. Zhou Sen shook his head and vetoed.

"Then chop the horse axe, the horse axe is specially cut is the cavalry armed to the teeth, especially those who are equipped with armor on the horse's legs, under the slashing of this weapon, not only the armor is broken, but even the horse's legs may be cut into two sections, the lethality is simply amazing, there is no pressure to deal with ironclad cockroaches and exoskeleton armor, however, this weapon is too targeted, and because of the shape, it has become a burden to kill the enemy." The old man said.

"The chopping axe is also a long handle, which is inconvenient to carry, is there any other good advice?" Zhou Sen shook his head again in denial.

"You want to take it with you?" The old man frowned and looked at Zhou Sen.

"Yes."

"There are many, many armor-piercing weapons, most of them bulky, or long-handled, such as gilded hammers...... In fact, in the ancient earth era, there was heavy armor like Mingguang armor and foot armor, and the armored cavalry and heavy infantry walked sideways on the battlefield, and each era had its own characteristics of heavy cavalry and heavy infantry, such as the Xuanjia Army, the Iron Harrier, the Iron Floating Massacre, etc., ordinary weapons had limited damage to them, in this case, armor breaking became a rigid need, in order to deal with the heavily armored enemy, the combat cold weapons, represented by whips, maces, hammers, maces, maces, etc., ushered in a golden age and became the heavy armor nemesis...... "The old man's conversation box opened again, Xiao Jingjing, who was next to her, frowned.

"How's the mace?" Zhou Sen interrupted the old man.

"Everyone should know that the mace is undoubtedly the most powerful in terms of power and armor-piercing ability, its sharp nails are the largest power output point, and when smashing into the human body, countless pieces of meat can be torn off in an instant, and when nailing the armor, it is as simple as cutting vegetables, which is the main reason why many tiger generals favored this weapon in ancient times. However, most of this weapon has been collected in museums in later generations, and if it is too lethal to be used by lawless people in the people, the consequences are unimaginable......" The old man's face showed hesitation.

"Does the old gentleman mean that maces are more dangerous than laser guns?" Zhou Sen shrugged.

"Ahem...... That's not the case...... The old man just felt that the mace was too brutal and hurt the heavens. ”

"Is it also hurting the heavens if I kill the ironclad cockroach?"

"This ...... In fact...... I don't have a mace......" said the old man weakly.

"Forget it." Zhou Sen looked disappointed.

"Grandpa, don't you have a mace?" The boy said suddenly.

"Silly boy, that mace is no longer a simple weapon, but an heirloom antique! Antiques, you know? It means it's worth a lot of money! The old man patted the young man on the head dotingly.

"Oh......"

"How much?" Zhou Sen asked straight to the point.

"Ah...... Little brother, that's an antique ......."

"Sir, you make a price!"

"This ...... This ......" The old man looked hesitant, and his gaze fell on the young man.

"Grandpa, the sword is given to the hero, and the pink is given to the beauty, since this little brother wants it, it's useless for you to keep it, and I don't like it either, so it's better to sell it to him."

"That's our heirloom!"

"Cut, it's just a mace, it's not that I can't fight, as long as I want, I can build as much as I want." The boy scoffed.

"Sir, make an offer, we're in a hurry!" Xiao Jingjing said a little impatiently.

"That'...... That...... Then I'll cut my love bitterly! Two hundred thousand! The old man gritted his teeth and said.

"Less." Zhou Sen's deep gaze stared at the old man.

"This ......"

"Little brother, that's our ancestral treasure." The boy scrambled to speak.

"Two hundred thousand, turned!" Xiao Jingjing used a portable light brain to complete the electronic payment.

"Uh-huh, I'll get it for you." The old man was overjoyed, and quickly turned around and strode into the dark room inside.

"The price of 5,000 yuan was offered by you for 200,000." Zhou Sen sighed.

"Five thousand...... Someone's ancestral stuff is worth 5,000? Xiao Jingjing was stunned.

"Do you really believe it?"

"Did they lie to us?" Xiao Jingjing's gaze fell on the young man.

"Little sister, we don't lie."

"Miss Xiao, believe it or not, there are a bunch of maces in that little dark room." Zhou Sen glanced at the small black house that the old man walked into.

"Don't believe it!" Xiao Jingjing didn't believe that she had been deceived, and immediately walked towards the small black room.

"Little sister, little sister...... Ah......" The young man chased after him and tried to stop Xiao Jingjing, but was pushed away by Xiao Jingjing and almost fell to the ground.
