Eleven: Refining the Blade

It was still early, and Li Sui'an immediately went home and picked up two jars of old wine.

took a carriage, accompanied by Chen Zhonghe, and came to the outer city to find Li Ping'an's home.

The inner city and the outer city are very different worlds.

If it is not necessary, Li Sui'an generally does not go to the outer city to wander around.

There are gangs here, and all kinds of protection money are received by small traders who suspect their lives, and the government can't control it.

I thought that Li Ping'an's knife casting workshop was a small workshop.

When I arrived at the land boundary, I found that it was an urban village covering a vast area.

Behind the stockade, there is a towering chimney that rises into the sky, black smoke billowing up, and the rhythmic sound of gold and iron can be faintly heard.

Let Chen Zhonghe wait in the carriage, and Li Sui'an went in alone.

Unlike other weapons shops, which are full of swords, guns, swords, halberds and other cold weapons, this weapon shop called Lian Feng only sells knives.

All kinds of long knife walls are hung on it, and there are a variety of them.

As soon as I entered the door, there seemed to be a cold knife intent rushing to my face, and the sound of hammers hitting from time to time came from the backyard.

There was a faint smell of coal fluting from the combustion fumes and sulfur.

"Whatever knife the guest wants to buy, you can just take a look."

A guy who was doing maintenance for the long knife said hello and then ignored it.

Li Sui'an happened to look around.

Holding a simple knife in the palm of his hand, it is cold in his hand, weighing more than ten kilograms, and it is difficult for ordinary people to hold it, let alone dance. I don't know what material it is made of, but there are dots of texture on the knife body, which is very beautiful.

There is no man who does not love swords.

Li Sui'an's martial arts are half a scoop of water, if he really encounters danger, the gap between having a knife and not a knife will be big, and he really wants to buy a self-defense.

But what Huang Henian said about the life-saving weapon, shouldn't it be for him to buy a knife and take it with him, and he didn't learn knife skills.

"Is there a better divine weapon?"

The guy thought he disliked the quality of the long knife, and explained: "The guests laughed, and the quality of the divine soldiers is unavoidable." Although the sword of our Refining Edge is not in the rank of a divine soldier, at worst it is forged by a hundred steels. The quality of weapons is well known. Even the Lantern Division ordered a night slashing knife from our Refining Blade......"

Li Sui'an interrupted him and said, "Can you invite Li Ping'an out?" ”

"Ah, you want to find our young master, dare to ask the guest?"

"I'm his brother."

The guy was slightly flustered, remembering that his young head seemed to have entered a martial arts hall in the inner city.

Seeing that Li Sui'an was well-dressed and fair-skinned, and at first glance he was a pampered person, so he honestly promised, "Guest, please wait a moment, I'll go and ask the young master." ”

A moment later, a burly young man in a short coat came out of the backyard, it was Li Ping'an.

"Hahaha, I didn't believe it when I heard that a senior brother came looking for me, but I didn't expect it to be Senior Brother Li's arrival, and the younger brother was disappointed."

Li Ping'an's height is just over 1.8 meters, half a head shorter than Li Sui'an, but his upper body is terrifyingly strong, and his arms are almost as thick as Li Sui'an's thighs, which is quite a sense of déjà vu of a small Hulk.

Li Sui'an looked at this guy who also showed his eight-pack abs on a snowy day, and said with a smile: "It's me who has nothing to do and waits for the Three Treasures Hall to disturb my junior brother's Qing Xiu." ”

"Where is there any Qing Xiu, I still dislike me as a senior brother for the chaos here, senior brother please come inside. In the past, the senior brother always invited him to drink, but today the senior brother rarely comes to me, and he has to drink it for a while. ”

He had already seen the two jars of aged wine that Li Sui'an was carrying, "Come to junior brother, what else do you bring?" ”

"Senior brother, you are really ...... Alas! ”

He stepped forward to help carry the wine.

When he came to the inner courtyard, this weapon shop suddenly revealed its true face.

It shows that there are hundreds of big men, who are also shirtless in the icy and snowy weather, and they keep hammering and forging weapons around the stoves.

The red-hot coal in the furnace emitted a roaring heat and dispelled the chill from the outside world.

These hundreds of strong men are also a big force.

He noticed that there were still a few people practicing knives in the corner.

"It's a big scale." Li Sui'an sighed.

Li Ping'an said with a little pride: "What is this!" ”

"This place is just a branch of the city of Lianfeng, and there is a fire pit on the side of the Xinghuo Mine, which is a good place to forge knives. Hundreds or thousands of people cast knives together, and the sound of percussion can be heard in the ears. It's just that it's snow season and it's not safe outside, so the mines have stopped and most of the people have moved back to the city. ”

Li Sui'an said: "I have heard of the name of Xinghuo Mine for a long time, and I have never seen it. ”

He'd heard that there was an extremely rare ore, Star Iron.

As a result, fights often occur.

"If you have a chance, senior brother, you must go and take a look. Our Lianfeng and other forces often fight for the territory of the mining area, and the battle of thousands of people is no less than a war, but it can be lively. ”

"If you have the chance, you will definitely go."

When he came to a simple living room, before a cup of tea was eaten, Li Ping'an went straight and asked: "Senior brother, I have already instructed the kitchen to prepare a few hard dishes, and with your drunken spring breeze, I will not get drunk and return later." ”

Li Sui'an said: "Don't be busy yet. I'm here to meet Master Li. ”

"Visit my dad?" Li Ping'an was very surprised.

"Someone is going to visit the old man."

A bell-like voice came from outside the door, and then a bearded old man walked in.

The physique is the same as Li Ping'an, but it is a head shorter than Li Ping'an.

When Li Ping'an drank before, he seemed to have boasted that he was the highest in the family, and it seemed that it was really possible.

Li Sui'an hurriedly saluted, "Li Sui'an has seen Master Li. ”

"Dad, Senior Brother Li and I are both disciples of Master Huang. In Guishoutang, Senior Brother Li also took a lot of care of me and often invited me to drink. ”

The old man looked at the two jars of wine on the table, and the trademark of Drunken Spring Breeze was particularly obvious, "The senior brother who invited you to drink is the one who sells Drunken Spring Breeze in Ruyi Fang, right?" ”

Li Ping'an said with a big grin: "Dad, how many people dare to invite me to drink." That is to say, my senior brother Li is generous, and he only needs to drink enough wine at home. ”

Li Sui'an smiled awkwardly.

I have drunk a few times with Li Ping'an, he has a lot of alcohol, but the wine is poor, he always likes to persuade wine, and he can't disperse if he doesn't get drunk.

Originally, I thought it was just a simple good wine, but now when I see his father, I know that it is a genetic factor.

The old man's face instantly smiled, "Hahaha, the old man Li Wentian is the head of this Lianfeng Number." The virtuous nephew will come when he comes, what are you doing at any cost? Tell the kitchen to prepare a few more side dishes, and today I want to have a good drink with my nephew, and I am not allowed to return if I am not drunk! ”

Ooh~

Father and son are the same.

Li Sui'an was willing to fight with the drunkard, and immediately made his intentions clear: "Uncle Li, the inner city has not been peaceful recently, and Master Huang is worried that I will not have the power to protect myself if something happens, so he recommended me to come to my uncle, wanting to find a magic weapon that can protect myself and my life." ”

Li Ping'an asked worriedly: "The inner city is not safe?" I heard today that the inner city has been hit by evil spirits, and my brother's Ruyi Fang is fine. ”

"It's okay, but the place where the accident happened is not far from Ruyifang."

Li Wentian glanced at him up and down, "Elder Huang asked you to come...... Do you buy it for yourself, or do you buy it for someone else? ”

"For your own use, of course."

"With your talent in the realm, it is indeed a bit difficult to choose."

He saw at a glance that Li Sui'an was hypocritical, thought for a while, and said, "Since Huang Lao asked you to come, I can rest assured." Son, go and bring me the small wooden box in my bedroom. ”

"Alright, Daddy."

Li Ping'an answered, and after a while, he walked out with a delicate wooden box in both hands.

Place it on the table and open the wooden box.

Li Sui'an casually turned his head to look, and his pupils shrank sharply.
