Chapter 130: Abducting Huo Shanzi
"You're going to visit that guy Huo Shanzi, right?" Meng Yi couldn't help but be surprised when he heard that Luo Xing and the three of them suddenly changed their plans to go back.
"Uncle Meng knows this Huo Shanzi?"
"I know, I know him well, he is indeed a wizard in the forging world, but unfortunately he was picked off ten years ago, and he can't pick up a hammer anymore and forge weapons for people." Meng Yi sighed with regret.
"How much hatred is it to break a blacksmith's tesuji?" Luo Xing was a little surprised, forgers generally don't make enemies with people.
And the more clever the forger, the more friends there are, as long as he is willing, how many masters are willing to be driven by him in order to seek a good weapon.
Offending a forger is very tolerant of taking a narrow path, and those who can do such things will never be ordinary grudges.
"Chaos at the beginning and abandonment at the end."
"Huh?" Luo Xing and Qingyi glanced at each other, but he didn't expect that emotional problems were indeed the easiest to go to extremes.
"Huo Shanzi was born in the Tiangongfang, in fact, most of the forging masters have some relationship with the Tiangongfang, although the Tiangongfang is not a holy place for martial arts, but the holy land of the world's foundry, Huo Shanzi joined the Tiangongfang when he was young to learn the method of casting, and later worshiped the senior forging master Feng Yangzi of the Tiangongfang as a teacher, studied under him for ten years, and after leaving the school, he became a junior foundry, which shows how high his talent is, the Tiangongfang is different from the martial arts sect, they encourage their disciples to break away from the Tiangongfang and go out on their own, but this Feng Yangzi has a daughter, worship under the gate of the Hundred Flowers Palace, learn to go down the mountain to experience and go home, and met this Huo Shanzi, the story behind this, I don't need to say, you can also guess, this is a good thing, but this Huo Shanzi's family has already set up a marriage for him, and the two parties have never seen each other, let alone the feelings, just dissolve the marriage, but this woman who is engaged to Huo Shanzi feels that she has suffered a great shame, and vows to let this' Huo Shanzi paid the price, this woman is also very talented in martial arts, and was accepted as a disciple by the Demon Gate, after she finished her studies, she found Huo Shanzi, and did not kill him, but broke his tendons, so that he could not pick up the hammer of forging again in his life! ”
"This woman is too domineering, even if they were once engaged, it should be the will of the parents of both parties, what does it have to do with Huo Shanzi, and she has been abandoned from the beginning to the end, there is no chaos, where did she abandon it?" Ye Liuli said.
"No one knew that they had a marriage engagement, and now that she has made it known to the whole world, this woman is really stupid." Luo Xing Road.
"Yes, things are not complicated, the two parties have no feelings, and they have not met, it is nothing more than the parents of both sides have set it down, as long as the matter is said and the marriage contract is dissolved, everyone will be safe, but some people will go to drill this bull's horn, feel that they are right, then the wrong must be someone else, they have to get justice for themselves, and if they don't say it, they will also hurt themselves." Meng Yi also shook his head and sighed.
"Uncle Meng, what about Feng Yangzi's daughter, what about her relationship with Huo Shanzi?" Qingyi asked curiously.
"She, she will never abandon Huo Shanzi, but how can Baihua Palace let her own disciple marry a wasted person, even if he used to be a senior forger." Meng Yi sighed, "Even Huo Shanzi's master, Feng Yangzi, doesn't want his daughter to live with a cripple for the rest of her life. ”
"The world is hot and cold, nothing more than this." Luo Xing nodded, human nature is like this, when you are in the middle of the day, you are surrounded by friends, but when you are humble and in the dust, how many friends will be left?
"Xiao Qi, do you still want to meet this Huo Shanzi now?"
"Of course, I'm very interested in this Huo Shanzi senior, because I want to forge a weapon of my own by myself." Luo Xing said, "I'm afraid there is no one more suitable for me than Huo Shanzi." ”
"You want to forge your own weapons?" When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.
"Master, can't you?"
"It's not that it can't be learned, you know that the art of forging is not something that can be learned in a while, if you put your time and energy into it, then what should you do about cultivation?"
"Forging is not a kind of cultivation, the control of strength, the seal carving of the spirit pattern can be practiced through forging, the so-called one law, then a hundred laws, as long as you want to cultivate, what you do can be regarded as cultivation, even if you carry water, wash vegetables and cook can be used for cultivation." Luo Xing said.
"Xiao Qi, your idea is very high!" Meng Yi pondered it carefully and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Master praised it falsely, I just said it."
"Since you have this idea, then do it, as long as you don't take the wrong path, the evil path, the teacher will support you." Mon Yi Dao.
"Thank you, Master."
A group of five people urged the horses to go straight to the valley where Huo Shanzi was.
Forging must have water and fire, so there must be water flow in the place where Huo Shanzi lives, and forging requires extremely high temperatures, so it is necessary to build a special furnace or draw the power of earth fire.
According to his understanding, it should be the underground magma flowing on the surface, but the temperature of the magma is also limited, and it cannot reach the temperature of melting the materials of special casting weapons.
The blacksmith should have a special method to increase the temperature of the furnace, which is a technique for people to eat, and this does not need to be thought about by him.
The valley is about twenty miles southwest of Luoxingping, which was originally an abandoned mine after losing its mining value.
After the miners left, it was also abandoned.
After a few hundred years, it is covered with vegetation again, lush and densely forested, and the scenery is absolutely beautiful if you come in spring.
Now, it is covered in heavy snow, and this road is hardly walked, and after leaving the official road, it becomes very difficult to walk.
Fortunately, it is not too far, and it is definitely not possible to ride a horse, and it is not a big problem to perform light skills.
It didn't take long for it to arrive.
A valley, in the shape of a spout.
After entering, I saw a rude house in the low-lying area, which was built next to the side of the mountain, which should be the entrance to the mine.
It's unbelievable that there are still people living in such a place.
If you want to change to Luo Xing, this heavy snow covers the mountains and closes the road, staying here alone and not going out for several months, you can't go crazy.
However, a forging master is also good at martial arts, and a forging master who does not know martial arts can only play with superficial farm tools, and it is impossible to forge excellent weapons.
So, as long as he wants to get out, it's also a breeze.
Woof!
A dog barked.
A big yellow dog came out of the bushes, and the "smelling rat" lying on Luo Xing's shoulder was so frightened that it suddenly got into his arms.
Really timid as a mouse.
"May I ask if Master Huo Shanzi is here?" Luo Xing and his group of five people came to the flat ground in front of the house, hugged their fists inside, and asked loudly.
Luo Xing asked three times in a row, but no one in it answered.
There are obviously people, but they don't agree, it's obvious that they are not welcome.
But since Luo Xing and the others are here, how can they leave easily, Luo Xing said again: "Master Huo Shanzi, we are sincerely coming to visit, you insist on not seeing, what is the reason, could it be that Master Fei doesn't even dare to see people now?" ”
This will not be as good as agitation.
The door creaked open.
A middle-aged man in a coarse cloth garment walked out, with a scumbag beard and a somewhat haggard face, which was an unhealthy color.
Holding a wine gourd in one hand, there is a strong smell of wine on his body, which is the taste of inferior "shochu", and his wrist trembles slightly irregularly, it seems that this is a drunk man who never leaves his hand all day long.
"I'm not a master Huo Shanzi, you've found the wrong person, let's go." The middle-aged man waved his hand and motioned for Luo Xing and the others to leave.
"The hands are wasted, and there are feet, if the heart is dead, then there is no hope at all, Huo Shanzi, are you so willing to die like this drunk and dream for a lifetime?"
"What does my business have to do with you?" Huo Shanzi opened his eyes and asked.
"Yes, your business really has nothing to do with me, if it weren't for the fact that you used to be a senior forger, I wouldn't have bothered to come over to see you."
"So you're just like those people, just a selfish person."
"People are not for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed, I am not a saint, I don't have the mind of fraternity, I came to you, I just want you to guide me to forge a knife, what's wrong."
"Another one who wants to learn my forging method?" Huo Shanzi showed a slight hint of disdain, over the years, there have been many people who have come to him, and there are many people who want to learn his forging method, but they have all been rejected by him, and he has abolished them himself, how can he be qualified to accept apprentices? Besides, what is the purpose of those people, is he not clear?
Forging is not a comfortable job, and those who want to apprentice are just trying to learn a skill as a skill to make a living.
really has a talent for forging, and he went directly to the Heavenly Workshop, why bother to ask him for this waste?
Even if there are really good seedlings, he doesn't want to teach, he doesn't want to delay others, so in the past ten years, few people still remember that there is such a number one person as her.
"Yes and no." Luo Xing said, "I just want to personally build a long knife for myself, so I just need you to teach me how to do it, and I'm not interested in anything else." ”
"You go to the Heavenly Workshop, there are a lot of people willing to teach you."
"I have my own ideas about the forging method of my blade, if I go to the Heavenly Workshop, I am afraid that I will be reduced to a miscellaneous worker, and I will dominate the forging of my blade."
"Young man, your ideas are bolder, but you are a little ambitious, go back, I won't teach you." Huo Shanzi still directly rejected Luo Xing's proposal.
"Master, is it too late to hear some of my thoughts on the method of forging before making a decision?" Luo Xing asked.
"Not interested!"
"Master Huo Shanzi, don't you want to restore your hands?" Luo Xing asked loudly to Huo Shanzi, who turned around and was about to go back.
"My hands can't even be cured by the elders of the Medicine King Valley, don't waste your tongue with me."
"Can the Medicine King Valley represent the world's doctors, the injuries that the Medicine King Valley can't cure don't mean that others can't be cured either." Luo Xing said, "Your tendons were broken, and the people who continued to connect them were rough, so that some nerves were misconnected by him, plus you numbed yourself with alcohol for a long time to relieve pain, although you have recovered a certain ability to live, but it is impossible to go back to the past, but if it can be corrected, I dare not guarantee a complete recovery, at least there should be no problem with a recovery of fifty or sixty percent, do you want to give it a try?" ”
"Are you sure?" Huo Shanzi turned around, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"I'll help you manage your hands, and you guide me to forge, and after the thing is done, the two don't owe each other, how about it?" Luo Xing said.
"How can I trust you?"
Luo Xing untied his identity as Nanya and threw it away, he is now a lieutenant, an official, and the tooth card has been replaced with a bronze one.
"Are you from Nanya?" Huo Shanzi naturally knew Nanya's tooth card and was a little surprised.
"My name is Luo Xing, the captain of the intelligence department of Nanya, this is my daughter-in-law, and she is also from Nanya, as for these two, they are also from Nanya, and their identities are inconvenient to disclose, please understand." Luo Xing introduced himself, and then introduced Qingyi, as for Meng Yi and Ye Liuli, their identities should not be announced.
"Okay, I'll believe you again, so do you stay with me, or do I go with you?" After reading the tooth card, Huo Shanzi threw it back and asked.
In the end, the fire in my heart has not been extinguished.
"It would be best if the master could go back to Luojing with us." Luo Xing Road.
"So, wait until I'm cleaned up." Huo Shanzi nodded, there were no conditions for so many people to live here.
