Chapter 42: Zang Feng
Wang Yangming was about to step forward to pick up the sword, but Chen Ba stopped him first and said, "Don't be busy, it seems that your hard work has finally not been in vain, and this sword has been practiced after all." It's just that the temperature of this dark iron is still high at the moment, so we take water to cool it. So Wang Yangming went to wrap up his wounds first, Chen Lu and the others took cold water and poured it on the sword, a burst of sneering white smoke rose, and after a while, the sword finally cooled down.
Wang Yangming couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and stepped forward to pick up the sword, but he felt that his hand was very heavy, about 100 catties, and he waved it with a strong wind, majestic. Wang Yangming smiled: "Good sword, but I don't know how powerful it is." Fourth Senior Brother and Fifth Senior Brother, please go and get a few weapons, I want to try the sword. ”
Chen Lu and the others took a few weapons from the weapon rack, both swords, guns, swords and halberds, Wang Yangming swung the sword and cut it, whether it was a single knife or a double knife, a spear and a halberd, as long as they were cut by this sword, all of them would be cut off in response, and they could not be more simple, and this sword was unharmed. Wang Yangming sighed: "There is such a sharp sword in the world. I went to the battlefield with this sword, and who among the Hu people can stop my nine swords!"
Chen Baxian smiled and said: "The guy that the little junior brother spent more than 5,000 taels of silver to get out is of course a treasure." I think you should hurry up and give this sword a name, otherwise it will just be called this sword, this sword, I listen to ten twists. ”
Wang Yangming nodded yes, secretly pondering the name in his heart, in fact, according to his meaning, he wanted to call this sword the Xuantie Heavy Sword, but in his previous life, he looked at Jin Yong's Condor Heroes, and knew that the sword in Yang Guo's hand was called this name, and he used this name again, which inevitably seemed too uncreative, but he couldn't think of a good name in his eagerness.
Lu Fengxian said: "I see that this sword is pitch black all over, and there is no blade at all, but it is extremely sharp, and all the sharpness is hidden under this black appearance." How about your sword, it's called Zangfeng?"
Wang Yangming repeatedly recited the word Zang Feng, feeling quite satisfied, and immediately clapped his hand and said: "Just call it Zang Feng!" He slowly stroked the sword body with his hand, and said softly: "Zang Feng, Zang Feng, you follow me as the master, I will definitely not let you be wronged, fast for three years, slow for five years, I will let the whole world know your name!"
After Wang Yangming got the Zangfeng Sword, he was overjoyed in his heart, and ordered the ninety-nine Eagle Yang Army to continue the training, and he took the sword to report to Boyan. Seeing that this sword was so wonderful, Boyan was also quite amazed. But Bo Yan suddenly changed his words and said: "Since you have obtained the divine sword, I think you owe us the three thousand taels of silver, and you have to find a way to pay it back as soon as possible." ”
Wang Yangming said in a hurry: "How did it become three thousand taels." You asked me for a total of 5,000 taels, I paid 2,500 taels in one go, and I still have 2,500 taels left, don't rely on me!"
Boyan said: "You kid. The arrears of two thousand five hundred taels are just the price you paid for my Xuantie. I used the materials and manpower in the army to set up a gossip furnace for you, and you also asked the sergeants to take turns to fan your bellows, five taels of silver per person per day, which I paid for you in advance, and these add up to five hundred taels, do you want to repay the bill?"
Wang Yangming saw that what he said was the Tao, and he couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "Why is my life so bitter!"
He strode away, and Boyan shouted behind him: "Why are you leaving, why are you going?"
Wang Yangming didn't look back, and shouted angrily: "I'll raise money!"
He was stuffy in his room that day and didn't come out, Biluo went in to look at him, and found that he was writing hard, Biluo was curious: "What is Brother Yangming doing?"
Wang Yangming didn't raise his head, and said angrily: "Master, I am a poor man who owes a huge amount of money of three thousand taels now, so why don't I hurry up and write a novel to earn manuscript fees!"
It turned out that he wrote the Journey to the West, which had not been copied for many days. On the same day, Wang Yangming wrote ten times of Journey to the West, and on the second day, he wrote ten times, even though his arms were as rigid as iron, he was tired and swollen. When he sent the letter to Chang'an, he sent the manuscript to Guozijian along with the letter he wrote to Cao Zhan, and asked Cao Zhan to continue to provide the manuscript to Xinhua Book Company for publication.
Ten days later, the messenger brought back a reply from Cao Zhan and a silver ticket of 3,000 taels. Wang Yangming opened the letter and saw that it read: "Mr. Thirteen respectfully, and the foolish student Cao Zhan worships." Now I have handed over Mr. Xinhua's new manuscript to Fu Zi, and when I learned that Mr. was embarrassed, the shopkeeper of the bookstore donated his money and advanced 3,000 taels of pens to send it to Yu. I understand the urgent need of Mr. Kexi. The fool bowed again. ”
When Wang Yangming saw the letter, he was overjoyed and said: "Cao Zhan, this kid, I know that he can understand my suffering. Haha, with these three thousand taels, I think that old guy from Boyan can still hold on to my pigtails. ”
On the same day, he went to Boyan's account to hand over 3,000 taels of silver tickets, and after seeing Boyan for only ten days, Wang Yangming had already raised 3,000 taels of silver, and he was very curious about where he got the money. How could Wang Yangming tell him the truth, Boyan saw that Wang Yangming was just perfunctory, and he didn't bother to ask, so he put the silver ticket into the Northwest Military Treasury and didn't mention it at the moment.
Boyan took the silver ticket and asked, "Your Eagle Yang Army is about to be established for three months." I heard you're training well?"
Wang Yangming didn't feel that the three-month period was so soon, and replied: "I don't dare to say that it's good, it's still available." ”
Seeing that although he said modestly, Boyan was actually full of confidence, and immediately said: "Since it is available, I will use it for you." ”
He ordered the military aircraft battalion to take the map, pointed to a place on the map, and said: "Five hundred miles west out of Jiayuguan, there is a barren valley, our army scouts came to report, a few days ago in the barren valley found that there seemed to be traces of the Hu army, but can not be confirmed." You will take a hundred of your Eagle Yang army and set out for this place tomorrow to see if there is indeed a Hu army stationed in the valley. If so, I will allow you to act cheaply, whether to fight or run, you decide for yourself. This is the first battle of your fledgling Eagle Army, and it is also a touchstone to test the results of your training, so take advantage of it yourself!"
Wang Yangming was a little apprehensive when he saw that he was going to let his Ying Yang Army fight with the Hu people so soon, but Boyan's words were military orders, and he couldn't disobey them at all, so he might as well agree happily, and saluted at the moment: "Get the order!"
Seeing that the task had been explained, Boyan waved his hand to Wang Yangming to signal him to step back, but Wang Yangming stood still in place, and Boyan was curious: "Do you still have something?"
Wang Yangming laughed and was about to speak, but Boyan preemptively said: "Don't say it, I know that you must be saying something unpleasant when I look at your obscene appearance, you better don't say it, I don't want to hear it." ”
Wang Yangming said angrily: "How can you be like this, Dashuai, I, Wang Yangming, can be regarded as being born and dying for our Northwest Army, and I have done my best, why don't you like to hear what I say." ”
Boyan said with a smile: "You kid, you have only been in our army for a long time, and you dare to say the four words "do your best." Well, for the sake of your meager contribution to our Northwest Army, you say, what kind of moth do you want to make?"
Wang Yangming saluted and said loudly: "I want equipment!"
Boyan frowned and said, "What equipment?"
"I want to equip each of my Eagle Yang Army with a set of fine iron battle armor, a hundred of the best war horses, the best spears and short knives, and all kinds of weapons!"
