Chapter 18 The spring breeze suddenly passes, and the wine is microwaved
Mu Yezi motioned for Long Qingyun to return to the study first.
He personally went to the sword casting workshop to guide the disciples, and saw how the Yan Ling knife, water and fire iron rod, and mace were doing.
A cup of tea, Mufu study.
Mu Yezi opened the door and entered, sat on the pear blossom wooden chair, raised his hand to pick up the tea cup, and took a sip of Longjing before the rain.
In a blink of an eye.
Jiang Peng and four disciples knocked on the door, each with four weapons on a tray in their hands.
Longquan sword, wild goose sword, water and fire iron rod, mace.
Niu Ben, Wang Gao, and Liu Wenlong looked at the three weapons with great eyes.
Mu Yezi motioned to the three of them to choose their favorite weapons, and if there were disagreements, they could compete in martial arts, and the winner would be given priority.
Wang Gao was born in Luoyang Golden Knife Gate, and with a big knife complex flowing in his blood, he involuntarily walked in front of Yanling Knife.
The knife is drawn out of the sheath, the handle is pitch black, the blade is straight, the tip of the knife has a curvature, and there is a counterblade. The knife was hung from his waist with a rope and double lifting ears on the scabbard, and Wang Gao was very satisfied and smiled.
Niu Ben went straight to the iron rod of water and fire, which was about four feet long, and this "iron rod of water and fire" was born from the "killing stick" of the yamen.
"Water and fire" represent the "Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu" in the five elements of yin and yang, symbolizing the selflessness of the iron face and impartial law enforcement, which is quite consistent with Niu Ben's heroic and straightforward temperament.
Liu Wenlong was deeply attracted by the mace, the head of the mace was like a jujube core, and there were many iron nails like wolf teeth fixed on the iron hammer head.
The head of the hammer had a handle attached to it, and the handle was five feet long. Liu Wenlong is tall, and this mace in his hand looks even more majestic.
Seeing that the three of them couldn't put it down, Long Qingyun admired Mu Yezi more and more, just by looking at the appearance, he could determine the other party's preferences, this ability to observe the nuances is really amazing.
Long Qingyun pulled out the Longquan sword, and Tuoba Xi also cheered and stepped over, his big watery eyes were as clear as the lake in spring, full of the innocence of a girl.
This sword, the sword is three feet long, the sword is half a finger wide, the sword body is cast with black iron sand of Longquan Mountain, thin and translucent, with a faint cold light, and the hilt is inlaid with a golden dragon pattern, which looks simple and majestic.
Long Qingyun carried the sword in his hand, and pointed at the void. Everyone also looked over, Long Qingyun Xiao Shuxuan raised, and the sword shone brightly. There is a kind of "sword qi spanning 30,000 miles, and a sword light is cold in 19 states".
"It's really a good sword. The sword intent evoked Long Qingyun's full of pride, and his handsome face became more and more resolute and strong, with a high-spirited momentum.
Mu Yezi saw that Long Qingyun was righteous and awe-inspiring, and he was quite satisfied, and he was also quite satisfied with this Longquan sword, the sword intent and the master's mind were connected, which was the greatest affirmation of the swordsmith's attainments.
"Senior Mu, how many silver taels is this Longquan sword, I will pay the bill. Tuoba said with a smile. The eyes are large and deep, the corners of the eyes are oblique and upturned, and there are a pair of watery Danfeng eyes.
Mu Yezi said heartily, "The sword is given to the hero, and this sword is given to the virtuous nephew." Then he walked into Tuoba Xi and said with a smile, "You don't have to pay the money, little girl, you just need to go back and tell your mansion master Mo Tianyu that he has accepted a good disciple, I appreciate it a lot, it's enough." ”
Then walked into Niu Ben, Wang Gao, and Liu Wenlong and said: "These three weapons are twenty taels of silver, which of you will pay?" After speaking, he smiled with a sneer, showing his arrogance and uninhibitedness.
The three of them frowned, "It's too expensive, isn't it?" "Looking at each other, you must know that eight taels of silver can buy a maid in Nanyong.
Tuoba Xi winked at Long Qingyun playfully, and then said to Mu Yezi: "Senior, I'll pay for it." ”
Seeing this, Luo Hao took out an ingot of silver, which was twenty-five taels, and Cen Bo accepted it at Mu Yezi's signal.
Nanyong's silver is basically used by dignitaries and wealthy merchants. At that time, Lin'an was a well-known metropolis in the world, and industry and commerce were extremely developed.
Silver is divided into silver cakes, silver bars, silver medals, silver ingots and other types, there are fifty taels, twenty-five taels, twelve taels, seven taels, three taels and other systems, mainly used for bulk commodity trading.
Tuoba Xi casually took out twenty-five taels of silver ingots, showing that he was born in a wealthy family. Cen Bo made up five taels of silver, and Tuoba Xi was not polite, and motioned for Luo Hao to accept it.
Mu Yezi was also secretly amazed, this woman was free and uninhibited, but not as reserved as ordinary women.
Long Qingyun took a step forward, waved his hand to Mu Yezi and said, "Thank you Senior Mu for giving you the Longquan Sword, if you have been bothered for a long time, you will leave!"
Mu Yezi bowed his head and motioned for Cen Bo to send everyone. The six of them walked out of the Mufu Sword Casting Workshop, and Cen Bo turned around and left.
Niu Ben couldn't help but say: "The wooden predecessors of this sword-casting workshop are so strange, Qingyun's Longquan sword doesn't charge money, and our Yanling knife, water and fire iron rod, and mace are so expensive, is he generous or stingy?"
Tuoba Xi responded: "That's it, this old man is too stingy, I could have not wanted the five taels of silver that I was looking for, so I simply accepted it, but I was angry that he received twenty-five taels of silver, which was too expensive." ”
Luo Hao said quietly: "Miss, you are wrong to blame this Mu Mansion Master, the masters in this world are different from ordinary people, sex is the way, the sword is given to the hero, this is his pride; It's expensive or not, and you'll know if it's worth the price when you use these weapons. ”
As he spoke, his eyes swept over Niu Ben, Wang Gao, and Liu Wenlong.
Luo Hao was also shocked in his heart, this goose knife, water and fire iron rod, and mace casting techniques are superb, if it is used on horseback and charging into battle, how powerful it should be. This Nanyong royal armory is not necessarily stronger than the weapons cast by this Mufu Sword Casting Workshop.
Long Qingyun likes Mu Yezi's temperament, if it weren't for a group of people together, he would have wanted to have a few drinks with him alone and talk about the world's weapons. I secretly made a decision in my heart, and when the West Lake sword discussion is over, I must come over to worship Xie Mu's predecessor for giving the sword.
Seeing the Yan Ling knife, water and fire iron rod, and mace just now, Long Qingyun suddenly had an idea in his heart, if there were several senior brothers, holding different weapons, and forming a team, whether it was facing an opponent with strong martial arts or killing the enemy, the power would increase several times.
At this time, Mu Yezi saw a few people leave, and he was also quite sighing. I vaguely feel that this Long Qingyun will be Nanyong's general, and I hope that after he discusses the sword in the West Lake, the two can still meet.
Tuoba Xi secretly glanced at Long Qingyun, and seeing that the other party was thoughtful, he raised his voice and said, "How about we go to dinner, Liu Wenlong, you are from Lin'an, you lead the way." ”
Under the leadership of Liu Wenlong, in a moment, the six people came to a building by the West Lake, and looked at the four big characters of "Water Tune Song Head", which was magnificent and rigorous.
"Hey, how do you use the name of the word brand as the name of the restaurant. Long Qingyun sneered and teased.
Leaving his eyes, a couplet was written on the left and right pillars with wanton swaying, dragons flying and phoenixes dancing.
"When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky. Tuobaxi's silver bell-like voice sounded, and he read the couplet.
"Dance to figure out the shadow, how it seems to be in the world. The deep voice said loudly, and Niu Ben preemptively read out the next couplet.
The two sang and harmonized, and there was a playful atmosphere, and several people smiled slightly.
Long Qingyun couldn't help frowning while smiling, this couplet is not completely opposed, fortunately it is the famous sentence of the great writer Su Dongpo, but it was pieced together by the owner of this restaurant, but it is also a broad artistic conception and far-reaching idea, which is also in line with the beautiful and picturesque West Lake.
This building is not a lonely building, several pavilions and pavilions, the corridor waist is back, continuous and connected, and the eaves are pecked high.
The six of them walked up to the second floor, overlooking the misty West Lake, the scenery is excellent, and it is indeed a good place to climb high and look into the distance, drink and talk.
"The water is shining and sunny, and the mountains are empty and rainy. As soon as the six people were seated, Liu Wenlong ordered wine and food, and a clear chant came from downstairs, and as the sound got closer and closer, four young men who looked like scholars walked up from the staircase.
Sitting at a dining table next to Long Qingyun, one of the handsome scholars continued: "If you want to compare West Lake to Xizi, it is always appropriate to wear light makeup and heavy makeup. ”
This poem is Su Dongpo's famous sentence, which describes the West Lake as a beautiful Xi Shi, whether it is light makeup or heavy makeup, it is very beautiful and pleasant.
Another tall and thin scholar continued: "The spring on the lake is like a picture, the chaotic peaks surround the horizontal pu, the pine row mountain surface is thousands of heavy emeralds, and the moon is a pearl in the heart of the waves. ”
"Okay, wonderful!" The tall and thin scholar had just finished chanting Bai Juyi's "On the Chunti Lake", and the short and fat young man next to him applauded.
Long Qingyun looked at the beautiful scenery of the West Lake, and listened to the two poems read by the scholar were written by Bai Juyi and Su Dongpo when they were officials in Hangzhou.
Thinking of this, I can't help but look up at Tuobaxi, delicate, beautiful, and the beautiful scenery of this West Lake, it is simply integrated, natural, beautiful, breathtaking!
In a blink of an eye, a series of delicacies were served, steaming with an attractive aroma, all of which were flavors cooked with good ingredients.
Steamed stone frogs, eight-treasure wild ducks, bergamot golden rolls, fried shredded cuttlefish, ginger fish fillets, braised spring bamboo shoots in oil, crispy pork ribs, and a snack, Lin'an walnut crisp, makes people have a great appetite.
It looks dazzling, it feels good, everyone poured a few bottles of daughter red, and drank it all in one bottle, the grade of this "water tune song head" is much better than the last "Longquan Restaurant", the last time it was a clay bowl to drink, this time it is equipped with a special drinking vessel.
It is a three-legged bottle with a bulging belly and a round bottom, with three legs underneath. The fetal quality is delicate, the shaft juice is moist, and the shaft color is azure, as if the rain has passed the bright sky at the first glance, giving people a sense of simplicity and elegance.
After drinking a bottle of wine, everyone raised chopsticks to eat vegetables, Long Qingyun tasted a bite of Babao wild duck, fat but not greasy, the meat is tender and delicious, crispy and moist, really good.
"Color, fragrance, taste, shape, and utensils" are all available.
At this time, the little guy served another dish of "brine conch spelling mountain delicacies", which increased the creativity and nutrition of this feast.
"The spring breeze came and went suddenly, and the golden bottle of wine was microwaved. "The food that everyone is eating is delicious.
Suddenly.
There was a crisp "pop" sound downstairs.
