Chapter Thirty-Six: An End That No One Expected

We hurried to the Blood Soldiers, and the guard at the gate saw us coming, put up his weapons, and said, "Token!"

Liu Qi pushed him away: "Get out, can you be responsible for delaying the Lao Tzu competition?"

We rushed into the Bloodmen and arrived in the square, where there were already a lot of people waiting.

There was a stick of incense on the stage, and Liu Qi's subordinates told us that if we didn't arrive before the stick of incense was burned, Liu Qi would be disqualified. This is a terrible thing, although Du Fei can also get the second place in this way, but we are not sure whether Du Fei will return Zhang Shi to us in this way.

I hurriedly explained to them: "Wang Yu, Lu Bing, as long as you play normally, Liu Qi, you remember, you must release the water! Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to rush into Du Fei's house and bring Zhang Shi back." ”

Liu Qi nodded, "Don't worry, I can still tell which is more important!"

I patted him, "Good brother, come on!"

Liu Qi and the others walked up to the stage, and immediately an elder came out, "Everyone has arrived, then I announce that the final of this forging meeting has officially begun!"

All six of them walked to their forging table, picked up their tools, and began to devote themselves to the forging and casting. Wu Feiyu's skills naturally need not be said, his movements, strength and rhythm are much stronger than others.

Wang Yu and Lu Bing both did their best according to my instructions, their strength was very different from the others, and they seemed to be much more difficult than others.

As for Liu Qi, he released the water as agreed, I can't see it, but Hu Mu told me that Liu Qi's movements today are half a beat slower than before, and the strength is not enough. The gang leaders and elders on the stage all frowned when they saw Liu Qi's performance.

Du Fei behaved unhurriedly, easily put the iron into the forging furnace, and hummed a little song waiting for the firing to be completed, and he couldn't see any nervousness at all. At one point I made eye contact with him, and he pretended to smile politely at me.

What I didn't expect was Xie Zhen, before Du Fei said that there was a way for him to release water, but neither I nor Hu Mu and them saw that he had a little bit of water release, but was more focused than before. This can be seen from the appreciative expressions of the gang leaders and elders on the stage.

But we didn't care about him, it doesn't matter to us whether he releases the water or not, anyway, Liu Qi released the water. When the time comes, Du Fei won't be second, and he can't blame us.

I'm really worried about Du Fei, if he gets the second place, he will definitely be seen as tired. After all, everyone's focus is now on Wu Feiyu and Xie Zhen, and they unanimously believe that the top two this time will be Wu Feiyu and Xie Zhen.

I was bored below, so I asked Hu Mu: "What is this red iron thing, and why is it used to test the contestants in the finals?"

"Hey, helper, don't you know this?" Hu Mu made a profound look, "Nanxia Zhanzhao, you always know, right?"

I nodded, "Of course I know." ”

This is a very peculiar kind of iron, very flexible, and ordinary people can immediately return to its original shape when it hammers it, so it is considered to be one of the most difficult iron materials to forge. ”

"Oh?" I became interested in the iron, "and is the weapon made of iron any good?"

"Of course! The weapons made of red iron are not only sharp, but also because of their strong flexibility, so the flexibility of the weapon is also high, and they can often be taken by surprise in the fight, and the opposite side is caught off guard! This time, the Blood Soldiers Gang is willing to take out the red iron for the finals, and it seems that they have made a bloody investment!"

I smiled, "After all, what they want to cultivate this time is the personal disciple of the helper, if they don't come up with something, how can they convince the public?"

Hu Mu nodded, "That's right, you see, this time they are also harder than usual to fight iron! Look at that Wu Feiyu, how long has it been since he sweated so much, in my opinion, even he can only create three layers of things this time...... "Hu Mu threw it at me, and for a moment, my attention was no longer on the game, pinching my chin and making a thinking appearance.

I came back to my senses and said, "What's wrong?"

Hu Mu smiled, "I just said that even Wu Feiyu can only make three-layer things this time. Helper, what are you thinking?"

I smiled sinisterly, "I was wondering, since this red iron is also a good thing, should we steal some red iron here." But forget it, the guards of the Blood Soldiers are too tight, and it is very troublesome to steal, and if you don't do it, you will lose your life. ”

"Hey, you're thinking about this, I've got a way!"

I was overjoyed, "What's the solution?"

Hu Mu smiled, "Gang leader, look, a gang as big as the Blood Soldier Gang, does it have to use up a lot of iron every day?"

I nodded, "Yes." ”

"Then if you want to use iron, do you also want to get iron from the outside?"

I kind of understood what he meant, "Makes sense, keep talking!"

"What about this Blood Soldier Gang, a batch of iron will be transported in from outside every month, although there will not be a superb product like Tianshan Cold Iron, but I know that every time the iron is transported, there will be ten catties of red iron in it!"

I raised my eyes, "Do you know the route they take to transport the rail?"

"Of course!" Hu Mu pointed at himself with his thumb, "I'm in charge of transporting iron!"

I was overjoyed and grabbed Hu Mu's hand: "Haha! I should really thank Liu Qi for absorbing you into the Kyushu Society, I have found a treasure!"

Hu Mu was a little embarrassed, "Where is it, it is my blessing to be able to join the Kyushu Society! Helper, you are a good person, I will never be afraid of being bullied again with you!"

"Don't talk nonsense, if you enter the Kyushu Society, you are a good brother. When the forging meeting is over, we will stay in this city for a while longer, grab the red iron and then leave! I will still be confident that I will come back from a transport team!"

"Dang!"

There was a sudden sound of the iron bar breaking on the stage, and we looked forward and saw that the red iron in Xie Zhen's hand had been broken into two. Xie Zhen shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and under everyone's gaze, he walked up to the leader and elder of the Blood Soldier Gang, arched his hand, and pretended to be afraid, "Gang leader, elders, what can I do now?"

The leader of the Blood Soldier Gang sighed and waved his hand, "This is also your life, no way, you go down!"

It became a pot of porridge below, some gloating, and some felt sorry for Xie Zhen. Hua Man also hugged his fists and said: "Tut-tut, this Xie Zhen is really scheming, and he actually used this method to release water!"

I smiled, "This saves us a little bit of trouble, so that the third one is ours, and we can skip the trip." ”

Not long after, all the remaining people on the stage finished forging and handed over the Red Lian Sword they had created to the leaders and elders of the Blood Soldier Gang.

The people discussed for a while, and the elder who was in charge of announcing the results stood up again, "Ahem, we just tested the toughness, sharpness, and feel of each sword, and now we will announce the results of the competition!"

There was a round of applause and applause from the audience.

"First place, Wu Feiyu!"

There was another burst of applause, Wu Feiyu was the first, this was acceptable to everyone, and it was expected, after all, his forging skills were not a little or two points higher than others.

"Second place, Lu Bing!"
