Chapter 30: Where Iron Forges Immortal Sword
Tong Zhizhao swallowed his saliva, to be honest, he was a little afraid of this gentleman in his heart.
Chen Changsheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw him so vigilant.
It looks like he's brought some psychological shadows to this kid.
"Fairy master, I, I can ......"
Tong Zhizhao originally wanted to talk about leaving, but after thinking about it, he wanted to stay.
Fear is fear, but what is in front of you is the real fairy master.
"Huh?" Chen Changsheng blinked.
Tong Zhizhao laughed twice and said, "No, it's nothing......"
Chen Changsheng said: "It's fate that I can meet you twice, it just so happens that Chen is going to buy something in the workshop, you might as well show me the way?" ”
"Lead the way?"
"Hmm."
Tong Zhizhao was a little reluctant in his heart, but he didn't dare to refuse the fairy master's request, so he walked in front to show him the way.
"Master Fairy, what do you want to buy?"
"Small objects, small objects that can hold things, similar to bamboo pipes and the like, and, don't call me a fairy master, it sounds weird and awkward, if you like, just call Mr. Chen."
"Mr. Chen."
"Hmm."
Tong Zhizhao took Chen Changsheng to some shops that sold small things, but most of the shops that sold objects in this kind were expensive, because many of them were some antiquities or some famous objects.
"Guest officer, your vision is really good, this pen basket was made by Zhang Qiuwen, a literati of the previous dynasty......"
Chen Changsheng interrupted the shopkeeper's words and asked, "What is the price of this pen basket?" ”
"Five taels of silver."
Chen Changsheng paused after hearing this, he took a fancy to it, but this price was really a bit expensive.
He put the pen basket down and said, "I'll take another look." ”
"Guest officer, you can have less."
"No need."
"Guest officer, four taels! Three or two, the guest officer ......"
Chen Changsheng walked out of the door, but he didn't have any nostalgia.
Not to mention three taels, he can't even afford a tael of silver now.
"Going to the next store?" Tong Zhizhao asked.
Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "Next." ”
Tong Zhizhao nodded and continued to walk forward.
After visiting several stores in a row, Chen Changsheng had a few who looked at the right eye, but after asking the price, he lost his mind.
Expensive, one more expensive than the other.
Chen Changsheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he thought that it would be better to make one himself and waste this money.
Tong Zhizhao seemed to see his helplessness, and said, "Sir, but you are shy? ”
Chen Changsheng didn't hide it, but said: "Indeed, I can't take out a tael of silver now. ”
Tong Zhizhao thought for a moment and asked, "Then, do you want to continue shopping?" ”
Chen Changsheng sighed and said, "Don't go shopping......"
As he was talking, he suddenly heard a clanging sound.
"Ding!"
"Ding!"
As soon as he turned his head, Chen Changsheng saw that there was a blacksmith in the blacksmith shop opposite the door, beating the iron embryo with a hammer, and sparks were splashing everywhere.
Chen Changsheng's eyes lit up, and he suddenly had an idea.
Tong Zhizhao followed Chen Changsheng's gaze, and he asked, "Mr. is trying to find a blacksmith to fight one?" ”
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said with a smile: "I have other ideas, you come with me." ”
Tong Zhizhao nodded and followed Chen Changsheng to the blacksmith shop.
There was no way for the blacksmith to stop striking iron, and when he saw Chen Changsheng, the sweaty blacksmith took the time to say, "Wait a while, when I finish beating this piece of iron." ”
"There's no hurry."
It was about a quarter of an hour.
The blacksmith threw the iron embryo into the furnace again to forge it, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and came to Chen Changsheng.
Only then did he notice the extraordinary temperament of the gentleman in front of him.
"Do you want to buy weapons?" The blacksmith asked.
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "I want to ask you to help me forge a sword." ”
"Well said."
The blacksmith said, "It depends on what material you want to use, if it is green steel, you can beat it for five taels of silver." ”
"Five taels, ah......"
Chen Changsheng thought about it after hearing this.
Tong Zhizhao knew that it seemed that it would not work again, but he had some doubts in his heart, didn't he want to buy objects at the beginning, why did he have to forge swords now?
When the blacksmith saw that the gentleman hesitated, he said, "Five taels is still the least, maybe more." ”
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng said, "But there are still cheaper ones?" ”
The blacksmith shook his head, indicating that there was no more.
"Okay......"
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment, then looked at Tong Zhizhao and said, "Can Chen borrow some silver from you?" ”
"Huh?"
Tong Zhizhao paused for a moment and said, "Sir, I didn't bring much." ”
He took out the money bag, and all of them came down, but there were only a few pieces of silver.
Chen Changsheng picked up his hand and weighed it, and said, "Chen will pay you back when the time comes." ”
"It's okay, just use it, sir."
Tong Zhizhao thought to himself, how dare he ask this fairy master to return.
Chen Changsheng mixed the two piles of silver together, looked at the blacksmith and said: "Chen came out today with less money, these silver together are only about one or two halves, I will press the silver on you first, and then I will take the sword, and then give you the rest, what do you think?" ”
The blacksmith weighed it and confirmed that it was about one or two halves.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "It's okay, it stands to reason that you should be charged two taels for offset, but one or two halves are fine, and it will take about half a month to cast a sword, and then you can bring the silver to get it." ”
Chen Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said, "Thank you." ”
He continued, "I have one more request. ”
"You say yes."
Chen Changsheng stretched out his hand, twisted the roots of his hair with his hand, and with a light movement of his fingertips, about a hundred hairs broke off and fell into his hands.
Chen Changsheng said: "Punch this hair into the sword embryo together. ”
"Huh?"
The blacksmith was stunned for a moment, "This ...... But this hair will turn to ashes when it is caught in the fire, and I am afraid it will ......."
"Just hit it." Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
The blacksmith opened his mouth and said, "I'll try." ”
Although he didn't understand why he wanted to go in, he had been striking iron for so many years and had met more weirdos, so his reaction was not very great.
He asked again, "How long is the sword?" And the hilt of the sword, what about these? ”
"Sword ......"
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "Three feet three." ”
"Then it is estimated that more materials will be used, and I am afraid it will be more expensive."
"I'll make it up when the time comes."
When the blacksmith received an answer, he agreed to forge the sword.
After deciding, Chen Changsheng took Tong Zhizhao and left the blacksmith shop.
Walk on the road.
Tong Zhizhao opened his mouth and asked, "Why does Mr. want to forge a sword again?" ”
Chen Changsheng said with a smile: "Because there is just a lack of a weapon." ”
Tong Zhizhao blinked and asked, "Do you still buy the object that contains the things?" ”
"Isn't it already decided?"
"Huh?"
"The thing that is loaded is Chen's hair."
"Hair?"
"Not bad."
Tong Zhizhao scratched his head, a little incomprehensible.
Take a sword to hold your hair?
So he asked again: "But, Immortal Master, shouldn't you use the Immortal Sword?" Any sword forged in iron can also enter your eyes? ”
Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "Who said that mortal iron can't forge immortal swords?" ”
