Chapter 90: Transforming Weapons
After walking for a few more days, he finally arrived at the helm of the beggar gang Jiangnan, and saw the moon thunder horse.
Ding Xiujie said: "At first, no one could approach this horse, and it couldn't even feed it, but then it was hungry for a few days, and then it was obedient." ”
"Thank you very much Elder Ding and all the brothers for helping me take care of it. He stretched out his hand and touched its head and said, "Good horse, I have wronged you during this time." ”
"Brother Xiao is welcome, this little thing is not enough. Ding Xiujie smiled, "I don't know if the gang leader came back with you." ”
"The Hundred Gang Masters and Master Puyan are together, and we are separated from the Daimyo's Mansion. ”
"Oh, I thought the helper was back with you. ”
Seeing that Ding Xiujie seemed to have something, Xiao Linger asked, "Brother Ding, do you look like something happened?"
Ding Xiujie said: "Brother Xiao doesn't know, recently, this organization called the 'Tianji Gang' is now making a lot of trouble in the rivers and lakes, and even several rudders of the beggar gang have been harassed by them, and now I heard that they have appeared in Jiangxi again, in order to prevent them from harassing our beggar gang, Elder Wu Guangyu has rushed to Jiangxi to divide the rudder." ”
"It's these people again, what kind of martial arts conference did this person named Nangong Ren hold and do nonsense on the rivers and lakes, what does he want to do?"
"This person has enveloped some third-rate people in the rivers and lakes, what Jiangnan Four Evils, Deadly Double Hooks, etc., these misbehaving people in the rivers and lakes are all in the 'Tianji Gang', and there is also Ouyang Qing, who is known as West Ouyang, who is also mixed with these people. ”
"Ouyang Qing, this monster, just met this person in the Daimyo's Mansion, I didn't expect to run so fast. ”
"What are Brother Xiao's plans for coming back from this trip?" Ding Xiujie asked.
"Does Brother Ding know a place called Nixia Valley?"
"Nixia Valley? Ding Xiujie shook his head, "Brother Xiao is going to this place, or should I call the disciples of the Beggar Gang to inquire about you?"
"Thank you, Brother Ding, don't bother the beggars to help the brothers. Xiao Ling'er took the purple rainbow gun, led the Moon Thunder Horse, and said to them: "Brother Ding, I have something to do, so I'll leave first, and there will be a period later." ”
"Brother Xiao, we'll have a meeting later. ”
Leaving the helmsman of the beggar gang, he rode on his horse but did not know where to go. Nixia Valley, where does this name sound good, where is it, this Lu Xiaomeng who took away Bing'er, who is she, what kind of relationship she has with the master, these questions are churning in his mind, now only by finding Lu Xiaomeng can he find Bing'er, to find Lu Xiaomeng, only by going to this Nixia Valley, but even if he gets to Nixia Valley, he is not sure if he can find someone.
He rode his horse forward, and the people along the road looked up at him, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
After walking a little further, there was a clanging sound in front of him, which turned out to be a blacksmith's shop, and he had already walked over, and when he heard the clanging bell, he stopped again, and then dismounted, and walked towards the blacksmith's shop.
It was a small blacksmith shop, with many swords, hoes and other agricultural tools at the door, and an old man with a bare body was knocking on the freshly baked and an iron bar in the house, and the red light of the iron bar shone on his sweaty body.
Without waiting for Xiao Ling'er to speak, the old man didn't turn around and said, "Do you want to buy farm tools?" ”
I didn't hear anyone talking, the old man turned his head, and saw that it was a handsome young man with a horse and a spear in his hand, his expression was stunned for a moment, but he immediately regained his composure, he stopped what he was doing, wiped his sweat, and asked: "Young man, aren't you here to buy farm tools, if you are buying weapons, you can choose them as you go, and ensure that you can pick the weapons you can pick and take." ”
"Uncle, I'm here to ask for advice. ”
"Excuse me?" The old man was very happy to hear him call himself uncle instead of uncle, although he was old, but because he was making a living and striking iron, he was exercising every day, so his spirit was very good, and he had a hobby, he liked others to call him big brother, uncle, etc., the younger he was, the happier he was.
"Young man, if you don't come to buy something, what do you want to ask me for? If it's about cast iron, I, Zhao Si, am not bragging, there is no one who can compare with my craftsmanship within a radius of 100 miles, the farm tools I fight are soaked in water and do not rust, and the swords I fight are not easily notched. ”
Xiao Ling'er took a look at the farm tools and swords on the side, which were indeed finely built and sharp.
"Uncle, I'm not here to buy a sword. ”
Zhao Si glanced him up and down: "Don't buy swords? You also come to exchange for farm tools?" In this way, you pick and choose by yourself, take whatever you see, and put the iron gun aside. After Zhao Si finished speaking, he picked up the hammer and continued his movements.
Xiao Ling'er was a little blindsided, changing farm tools? What is this?
"Excuse me, uncle, to see what farm tools I can exchange for this gun. ”
Zhao Si turned his head again, his eyes fell on the purple rainbow gun in Xiao Ling'er's hand, walked over and looked at it, and said, "Are you really here to exchange for farm tools?"
"What do you see, uncle?"
Zhao Siwu looked at this gun and exclaimed in exclamation: "This is a good gun, made of Xuantie and the thousand-year-old ice of the Tianshan Mountains. He glanced at Xiao Ling'er, "Boy, you're not here to change farm tools, are you?"
Xiao Ling'er said with a smile: "It's not a secret, I used to be a member of the Yue family's army, and I used this gun to kill the enemy, just because I don't have the opportunity to go to the battlefield again, and it is very inconvenient to walk with this gun. ”
"Are you Yue Jiajun?" Zhao Si said excitedly. "I thought you were the one who traded weapons for farm tools. The imperial court asked the front-line soldiers to retire, many soldiers were dissatisfied with the imperial court to give up resistance to the Jin people, some of them left the army, returned to their hometowns, and took the weapons to sell to me, buy my farm tools, my old man respected them, so let them leave their weapons, and take back whatever farm tools they wanted, and told them, put the weapons here with me, come when you want, I will not move. ”
Zhao Si's words made Xiao Linger admire him very much.
Zhao Si took the Zihong gun, Xiao Ling'er was even more surprised, this gun weighed about sixty catties, but in the hands of this old man, it was no different from an ordinary weapon, he thought, it is really a master who does not show his face, and everywhere, there are hidden masters.
"Little brother, do you really want to modify this gun?"
"Yes, uncle, do you think it's feasible? ”
"Since you are a good man who has killed the gold man in battle, you don't want your silver, and you have found the right person, if it is an ordinary craftsman, this gun will be useless in their hands, you wait. Then he turned around and went into the house.
An hour later, Xiao Ling'er held the newly modified gun, Zhao Si did not make any modifications, but only cut the gun into two sections, but when the two sections were joined together, it was the original Zihong gun again, and when it was slightly rotated, it became two short guns.
Xiao Ling'er was overjoyed, after such a transformation, it was much more convenient to carry, he took out a silver ingot and gave it to Zhao Si, Zhao Si refused to ask for it, he only said to Xiao Ling'er: "I just hope that if Xiao Ling'er can go to the battlefield again, just use this gun to kill a few more enemies." ”
Zhao Si finally added: "I was also a soldier. ”
