Originally, He Qiu's desire to win and lose this competition was not very strong, but after making a bet, He Qiu's interest came.

Win a game, you can get a maid who is as beautiful as a flower and has strong kung fu.

Where to find this good thing!

Gotta win!

He Qiu solemnly opened the system item space and searched inside.

……

On the other side, King Yan's study.

A thin man stood in the center of the study, reporting to Zhu Di what had just happened in the courtyard of the East Wing.

Zhu Di frowned slightly and said: "The Ou family is really becoming more and more presumptuous, and they dare to break into my Yanwang Mansion at night!" ”

"Lord Wang, we have found out the whereabouts of the Ou family, do we need to teach them a lesson?"

The thin man asked Zhu Di murderously.

Zhu Di thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "It's not proper, the Ou family casts a peerless, and the relationship with the Fifth Military Battalion, the Three Thousand Battalion and the Shenji Battalion is not bad, it's not worth it to grudge with them!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang has twenty-six sons, if you want to talk about forbearance, Zhu Di must be the first.

The thin man hugged his fists and said: "The prince is really far-sighted, far beyond my ability!" ”

Zhu Di waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't pat yourself on the back, you continue to pay attention to the situation in the courtyard of the East Chamber, I'm quite interested in the victory or defeat of Mr. He's gamble!" ”

"Understood!"

The thin man answered, and then left the study.

……

Early in the morning of the second day.

As soon as He Qiu opened his eyes, he saw Ou Xuelan sitting in his room drinking tea with two dark circles under his eyes.

At that time, He Qiu was shocked.

"I ...... Damn, how did you get in? ”

He Qiu wrapped his small quilt tightly, his face frightened.

Ou Xuelan said lightly: "Your window is not closed!" ”

He Qiu subconsciously looked at the position of the window, only to see that half of the window was gone.

Obviously, it's not that the window is not closed, but that this girl broke it open with violence.

"You have to compensate me for the window, a big girl's family, taking advantage of the handsome guy's sleep at night, sneaked in, and it doesn't sound good to spread out!"

He Qiu chattered while putting on his own clothes under the quilt.

Ou Xuelan sneered: "You are talking so much nonsense, do you want to delay time and ask someone else to bring you the steel forged for you?" ”

"Don't smear people's innocence out of thin air, when did I ask someone else to forge steel for me!"

He Qiu was very unhappy and said to Ou Xuelan.

“pia！”

Ou Xuelan slapped the table and said coldly: "I haven't slept all night in order to forge steel, but you have slept in bed until now, do you have time to forge steel by yourself?" In vain, I thought you were some kind of forging master, but I didn't expect you to be a deceptive and famous! ”

He Qiu lifted the quilt, turned over and sat on the edge of the bed, and said with a golden knife: "I have time to sleep because I am good at forging iron!" I sleep soundly because I am confident that I can win! The competition doesn't look at the process, only the result, does it? ”

Indeed, this is the truth.

But Ou Xuelan is still angry.

After she returned to the Ou family's forge last night, she really worked hard all night with the hammer, and her attitude towards the game was extremely serious.

But He Qiu's attitude was obviously not so serious.

Compared with the two, Ou Xuelan has a sense of grievance that "I would have lit the moon with my heart, but the bright moon shines on the ditch".

But in the end, Ou Xuelan still gritted her teeth and said: "Then take out your results and compare them, I tell you the truth, you lost today, and I took this piece of steel...... That's 1,600 forging! ”

After speaking, Ou Xuelan lifted a piece of black cloth on the table, revealing the steel block under the black cloth.

This steel block is full of complex and fine lines, which looks very good.

In ancient times, the steel was mostly folded and forged repeatedly, so as to separate the impurities in the steel and improve the quality of the steel itself.

An important criterion for distinguishing the ability of a blacksmith is to see how many times the blacksmith can stack and forge steel.

At this age, Ou Xuelan can fold steel 1,600 times, which shows his talent and level.

If it is an ordinary blacksmith, when he hears "1,600 forging", he will immediately have to bow down.

It's a pity that He Qiu is a hanger!

"Bang!"

He Qiu pulled out a flat hammer from under the bed and threw it at Ou Xuelan's feet.

"This is a steel hammer I forged, you can try which one is harder!"

When He Qiu spoke, he looked confident.

Ou Xuelan stared at the hammer intently, and then couldn't help but smile.

"Isn't this just an ordinary hammer? I don't even have a forging pattern, how dare I compare it with my 1,600 forged steel, you still obediently admit defeat, haha! ”

He Qiu raised his eyebrows and said: "If you want to improve the hardness of steel, you don't necessarily have to forge it repeatedly, you better test it a priori!" ”

"You really don't cry when you don't see the coffin, or not, I'll let you lose your heart, this ancient glass knife is handed down by my ancestors, sharpen iron like clay, just use it to test!"

As soon as the words fell, Ou Xuelan took out the ancient glass knife behind her and slashed at the steel block on the table.

"Bang!"

The table was directly shattered by the tremendous force, and the steel that fell to the ground was only a knife mark and a half deep in size.

Ou Xuelan pulled a knife flower, put away the knife and stood up, looking at He Qiu with contempt and said, "See? This is the real thousand-forged steel, how can you compare it with a hammer that you forges casually? ”

He Qiu smiled, pointed to the hammer on the ground and said, "You can try it first!" ”

"Huh!"

Ou Xuelan sneered twice, as if she was laughing at He Qiu's indiscretion.

However, she still picked up the ancient glass knife and slashed at the hammer hard.

"Ding!"

With a crisp sound, the edge of the ancient glass knife shattered a corner.

The hammer on the ground was undamaged.

In an instant, Ou Xuelan was stunned.

Killing her didn't believe that there would be such an outcome.

For hundreds of years, the Ou family has used this ancient glass knife to test the hardness of steel.

The ancient glass knife has never been broken.

But today, an ordinary hammer without a pattern has damaged the ancient glass knife.

He Qiu lit a cigarette and said leisurely: "Miss Ou, my hammer ...... The quality is okay, right? ”

Ou Xuelan came back to her senses and muttered to herself, "No...... That's impossible! ”

"Nothing is impossible!"

He Qiu puffed out the smoke ring and said: "As I said just now, the hardness of steel does not necessarily depend on repeated forging, sometimes adding something special can forge harder and less wearable steel in a shorter time!" ”

Ou Xuelan had a thoughtful look on her face.

After a long while, Ou Xuelan looked at He Qiu again and said, "It's like refining stainless steel, adding chromium ore powder and nickel ore powder to it?" ”

He Qiu's smoking movement suddenly froze, and he turned to look at Ou Xuelan with an unbelievable look......
