Chapter 81: The Magical Ice Cube
In the past few days, Jing Xuan took out the ice cube that was no longer shining when he was fine, and compared it, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, Jing Xuan thought to himself, if this ice cube could really become a sword, how many would there be, so that the sword could always follow him.
Jing Xuan thought like this, and suddenly had an idea, there is a blacksmith shop behind the Hidden Sword Pavilion in Yunwuling, which is usually a place where fire and iron are used to refining weapons, and he heard other disciples talk about it in the future, there is an iron master there, and everyone calls him Iron Master, because because he is too old, no one knows his real name, everyone calls him Master when they see him, and because this is usually a blacksmith shop for iron, everyone has been used to it for a long time, so they all call him Iron Master.
Jing Xuan had never seen Master Tie, but Jing Xuan had heard that although this Master Tie was silent, he did a very beautiful job as a blacksmith in his hands, and many of the rare famous swords preserved in the Sword Pavilion had been built and repaired by him. Jing Xuan thought to himself, this glittering ice cube does not melt at all, if he can let Master Tie also help him make this strange ice cube into a sword, how good it would be, but Jing Xuan felt that it was his own crankiness, this piece of shiny ice picked up from the snow, if he took it, would it make Master Tie laugh.
Jing Xuan has been thinking about this for several days, this shiny ice cube is really lovely, no matter what, let's take it over first and let Master Tie help take a look, if Master Tie laughs, let him laugh, Jing Xuan finally paid attention in his heart, and decided to hurry up to the blacksmith shop behind the Hidden Sword Pavilion to have a look.
The snow in winter has been falling non-stop, Jing Xuan originally wanted to pick a sunny day to pass, but the weather is always gloomy, and there is no sunshine, Jing Xuan can't wait, so he found a fine afternoon, took his crystal clear ice to the blacksmith shop, Jing Xuan came to the blacksmith shop, but saw the blacksmith shop where the brilliant fire sprinkled all over the house, although at this time it was windy and snowy outside, but the closer to the blacksmith shop, the more Jing Xuan could feel very warm, the heat kept emanating from the blacksmith shop, the snow in front of the blacksmith shop had not fallen to the ground, it had already dissipated, but the ground in front of the door looked very muddy。
From the blacksmith's shop, there was a constant sound of striking iron, and the shouts of "hey, hey", as everyone was striking, with hammers striking the unformed hot iron blanks. Jing Xuan had never been here before, he stood cautiously outside the blacksmith shop, and when he came all the way just now, the snow had already fallen all over his hair. Jing Xuan was really unfamiliar with the people in the blacksmith shop, and he didn't expect the time to be at this point, and he was still so busy here, Jing Xuan lingered at the door for a while, but he didn't dare to go in.
Jing Xuan looked inside, but saw that the people inside couldn't see who the iron master was, Jing Xuan was hesitating, because it was too cold, Jing Xuan's hands were unconsciously frozen and unconscious, but the magical ice cube in his hand fell to the ground, and at the moment when the ice cube fell to the ground, the ice cube flashed with the brilliant white light when Jing Xuan found him, this brightness was too strong, and Jing Xuan's eyes were about to be unable to open.
Jing Xuan hurriedly picked up the ice cube and wrapped it in a cloth again, and the ice cube disappeared again, but at this time, a voice came from the blacksmith shop and said, "What is that?"
This voice came out, and the blacksmith shop, which was still busy just now, suddenly became a lot quieter, and many people stopped what they were doing and looked up at Jing Xuan who was standing outside the door, Jing Xuan saw that the people in the blacksmith shop were looking at him, and he didn't know if he was asking himself what he said just now, so he replied indiscriminately and said: "I am a disciple of Gu Xingyun, my name is Jing Xuan." ”
An old voice said, "I'm asking you what that glittered just now." ”
Before Jing Xuan could answer, some disciples in the blacksmith shop shouted loudly, "My master asks you what kind of treasure you are holding in your hand, and you can make it clear who your disciple is." As soon as the disciple said this, the blacksmith shop immediately burst into laughter.
Jing Xuan's face turned a little red with nervousness, and said, "This is what I occasionally see in the snow, and I don't know what it is, like an ice cube that won't melt." ”
The old voice said, "Bring it and show it to me." ”
Jing Xuan heard this voice, but he didn't know where it came from, but a disciple said rudely: "My master asked you to show it to his old man, what are you still doing there, don't you come in quickly, it's grinding." ”
Jing Xuan hurriedly oh oh oh a few times, stepped into the blacksmith shop, as soon as he entered the blacksmith shop, a hot air rushed to his face, just now he was cold body, but now he was a little sweaty by this hot air, Jing Xuan couldn't help but sneeze several times, and then he felt that his body had adapted to the environment here.
The disciples in the blacksmith shop all looked at Jing Xuan with a smile, and some people also said hello to Jing Xuan, Jing Xuan also nodded to those disciples with a smile, but he still couldn't find the person who spoke just now, Jing Xuan was about to ask someone again, but he heard a voice from a remote corner of the room saying, "Take it here, I'll take a look." ”
Just now, someone there kept hitting iron with a hammer, Jing Xuan didn't care about it, and now the person finally stopped what he was doing, the man looked burly, his face was red, I don't know if it was because of the perennial iron, but he was hunched back, and now he was looking at Jing Xuan here with bright eyes.
One of the disciples on the side said, "Master called you, don't go over quickly, you're still here." There was another burst of laughter around, Jing Xuan figured out the place of the person who spoke, although the room was much warmer than the outside, but the items were placed very messily, Jing Xuan had a feeling of confusion from the moment he entered the door. Jing Xuan thought to himself, since these disciples all called that person a master, then he must be the legendary Iron Master.
Jing Xuan walked towards Master Tie, he was smiling, he wanted to give Master Tie a good impression, but Jing Xuanyue suddenly felt that Master Tie's eyes didn't seem to look at him, but kept staring at the ice cube held by the cloth in his hand, Jing Xuan came to Master Tie, only then did he see Master Tie's face, Master Tie's face was wrinkled together, and he seemed to be striking iron very energetically from a distance just now, but when he looked closer at this time, he felt that his face was really haggard.
The old voice of the Iron Master said, "Show me what you have in your hand." ”
Jing Xuan hurriedly held it with both hands, and handed the magical ice cube to the iron master, who took the ice cube handed over by Jing Xuan, slowly unwrapped the cloth, and then stared at the ice cube carefully, slowly looking at it little by little from one end to the other, very seriously, while looking at it, Tie Master asked, "I heard you just say that you picked up this thing from the snow?"
Jing Xuan probably told Master Tie about the fact that he had picked up this magical ice cube on the mountain of Cloud Ridge that day.
