Chapter 4: Anger (1)
"Sonorousβ"
In this cavern, the sound of metal striking was particularly deafening, and after about a dozen impacts, the two men stopped, and then presented their weapons.
Fang Ling took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but light up, this saber was intact, even the blade was as if it had just been sharpened, but the other knife was different, there was obviously a small hole on the blade, if you cut a few more knives towards this opening, I am afraid it would crumble.
Seeing Fang Ling's slightly surprised expression, Ma Kai's face couldn't help but show a little smugness, as a general, in addition to the soldiers under him, the most proud thing was of course these refined weapons.
As soon as he finished reading Fang Ling's expression, Fang Ling glanced at him silently, his eyes fell on the saber on Ma Kai's waist, and said with a smile: "The weapons of this ordinary soldier are so powerful, isn't the knife you are wearing, General Ma, even sharper?"
Seeing that he wanted to see it, Ma Kai laughed proudly, pulled out the waist knife from its sheath, and saw that the long knife was sharp, and it suddenly carried a murderous aura.
Fang Ling took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but praise: "Good knife, really good knife!"
Ma Kai laughed and said: "Your Highness, this knife is different from these sabers, the general knife can be formed after five procedures and a hundred hammers, but this knife has undergone a special refining process, it takes ten processes and three hundred hammers to refine such a hundred refining knives!"
"Oh, in this way, if these hundred refining swords are compared to those sabers, if they are cut down more than a dozen times, won't the saber also make a hole?" Fang Ling said in surprise.
Seeing Fang Ling's expression that he had never seen the world, Ma Kai couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's right, if Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can test it for you again." β
Fang Ling smiled slightly: "This test is not necessary, but I have an uninvited." β
"Your Highness has something to say, and the ministers listen to it. Ma Kai still replied humbly.
Fang Ling showed a bright smile on his face, sharpened the blade of the knife with his hand, and said with a reluctant look: "General Ma also knows that I went out all the way, the road is dangerous, and there happens to be no self-defense weapons around me, I think this hundred refining knife is quite good, and it is quite easy to pick up, it is better for General Ma to give me this knife." β
"This ......" Ma Kai didn't expect Fang Ling to actually ask for his own personal weapon, and he couldn't help but hesitate for a while.
You must know that an ordinary saber can be successfully crafted in five days, but this hundred refining knives are different, you must pick the best ore of iron ore and refine it after selection. This refining is not an easy job, it is necessary to smelt these ores again and again, and when it is hammered three hundred times, sometimes it will be broken, and one of the ten hundred refining knives will be considered lucky, and it will take more than three months to form one of them.
Fang Ling frowned, and said with a displeased face: "What's the matter? This mere sword and horse general is actually reluctant, I thought that General Ma was a generous person." β
This made Ma Kai's old face blush, there were so many lieutenant generals and soldiers watching here, and a dignified Shicheng king personally asked for an object, this kind of thing could not be refused by his subordinates, so he had to grit his teeth and forced a smile and said: "Since Your Highness likes it, then give it to Your Highness." β
