Taixuan fixed his mind and looked at it, a good eagle, one and a half years high, the wings were spread out and four zhang wide, the golden sword feathers covered the body, a red jade bead on the top of the head, the feathers were short but nearly half a foot long, the sharp beak was like iron casting, the claws were like King Kong, and it was mighty and extraordinary.

The eagle flew out of the snake pit but did not stop, and flew straight into the sky, but the flight was unsteady, trembling, flying for a long time before it stabilized, Tai Xuan saw it and smiled: "Brother Eagle, come down! There is a lot of time, you don't have to rush to fly." The Condor listened and circled a few times before coming down.

When Yang Guo saw the Condor, he hurriedly ran over, touched the feathers of the Condor and said, "Uncle Diao, you are really mighty now! When I first saw you, I was a miscellaneous bird, with pus and blood on my head, and I was ugly, but now it looks like a jade bead is installed on my head." ”

The Condor waved his wings and walked majestically, Taixuan and Zhang Keda went down to the snake pit to deal with the corpse of the poisonous Jiao, and soon Taixuan carried a two-zhang long large vertebrae, and a ball of Jiao tendons flew out, Zhang Keda followed, holding a ball of Jiao skin, snake horns and a section of vertebrae flew up.

Tai Xuan said: "This poisonous Jiao, just a few feet of large vertebrae in front of it are rigid and soft, but the back one is too soft, and it is okay to make a whip." ”

Yang Guo smiled and said: "That's not bad, Master, you are too greedy, you are simply looking forward to Shu." ”

Tai Xuan said: "The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, but also I am greedy, let's go to the town in the south of Xiangyang City for ten miles to find it, the Eastern Evil Sect Feng Mofeng should be there, we ask him to cast this weapon." Brother Diao, you are fledgling, you should stay in this forest for a few days, and we will forge weapons to find you. ”

The Condor nodded, and Taixuan and his party took the whole body material of the poison Jiao and hurried to the south of Xiangyang City to find it.

After walking for about ten miles, there is a small town, this Xiangyang is located at the junction of Mongolia and Song, and the nearby towns have also suffered from the war, the Mongolian soldiers have plundered, the town is dilapidated, the houses are dilapidated and there are no two shops, and after a little inquiry, I found Feng Mofeng's blacksmith shop.

The iron shop was very simple, and as soon as I entered the door, I saw a large anvil in the middle of the house, full of broken coal and iron, a few plowshares and a few sickles on the left wall, and two kitchen knives on the right wall, and no one in the house was striking iron, and it was silent.

Yang Guo saw that this shop was so dilapidated, and said, "Can you strike iron here?" Taixuan didn't pay attention to him, and said loudly: "Is anyone at home?"

"Who?" A male voice came from the room next to him, and after a while, an old man with gray beard and crippled left foot, and a cane under his shoulder socket walked out of the room, looking about fifty years old, with red and thin eyes, hunched back, and said, "How many guest officers do you have a noble job?"

Taixuan put the things in his hand on the ground, stood on his chest with his right hand and saluted, and said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the Poor Dao Quanzhen Sect of Changchun Zhenren Sect Quanzhen Young Master Sect Taixuan, I have seen Senior Feng under the main seat of the Eastern Evil Yellow Island. ”

The old blacksmith was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Taixuan blankly: "You, are you the true descendant of the Zhongshen Power Chongyang?" What did you call me just now, how do you know my origin, teacher, is the old man of Huangdao good?"

Taixuan said: "Senior Feng, in Xia Xi is the young master of the Quanzhen Sect, and my Quanzhen views are all over the world, so I know a little bit about these secrets, as for the East Evil Yellow Island Lord, in addition to Huang Rong Woman and Feng Senior, he has only a few years ago in order to relieve old age and loneliness, and serve the newly accepted little apprentice, the rest of the Chen Mei District Lu seniors are all gone, Huang Rong Woman married Guo Daxia After the Huangdao Lord did not like Guo Daxia's temperament, he took the newly accepted little apprentice to wander the rivers and lakes. ”

Feng Mofeng listened to the tears in his eyes, he came to this countryside since his left leg was broken to take in people to make a living by striking iron, and he had nothing to do with the rivers and lakes, but more than 30 years have passed, and today he has heard the news of the master. He received the grace of saving his life and nurturing him because no matter how Huang Yaoshi treated him, he had no resentment.

Feng Mofeng lowered his head and cried for a moment, and asked, "Taixuan Little Daoist, is there something wrong with you here?"

Tai Xuan said: "I am here for my little apprentice, he also has a little relationship with Peach Blossom Island, his father and the son-in-law of the Lord of Huangdao Guo Jing Guo Daxia are sworn brothers, and they also worshiped under the door of Huang Rong Woman." His ancestor is the Yang family general, he wants to inherit the will of his ancestors, join the army to fight against Hu Lu, but there is no good gun as a weapon, just yesterday I waited in the woods outside Xiangyang City to kill a big Jiao, this big vertebrae are both rigid and soft, can be made a big gun, this Xiangyang City in the fight against Yuan Meng is in full swing, those blacksmiths are busy repairing weapons but there is no time for him to care, I happened to learn the news of Feng seniors, is to come to ask for help. ”

Feng Mofeng saw that it was for Huang Yaoshi's son-in-law's nephew to ask for help, and he said under Aiwu and Wuxia: "The old blacksmith has been making iron for more than 30 years, and this craft has been there, but if you want to cast weapons, you have to ask the eldest brother who took me in at the beginning, so I will invite him." With that, Feng Mofeng walked into the house with an iron crutch.

Tai Xuan said curiously: "This Feng Mofeng still has a big brother who took him in? This is not mentioned in the original book, isn't that person dead at that time?"

Needless to say, out of the room came an old man in his fifties and sixties, with an ancient face, his face full of wrinkles and years of wind and frost, not like an ordinary man, but coughing from time to time reflected that his body was not very healthy, Feng Mofeng followed closely.

Feng Mofeng introduced to the old man: "Brother Zhu, these people are my old masters, and they are here to use this Jiaolong big vertebrae to make a pole gun as a weapon, as well as some other objects. ”

He also introduced to Taixuan Yang Guo and the three of them: "This is the casting brother, in the past I broke my left leg and fell into the rivers and lakes, it was he who took me in and taught me to make a living by striking iron, he is the descendant of the casting master, in the late Spring and Autumn of the past years, the ancestors in order to avoid the pursuit of King Wu to cast the sword as the surname." ”

Taixuan Yang Guo and the three of them saw the salute one by one, and the old man surnamed Zhu said: "There is no need to be so polite, you are the old man of Mofeng, I will cast this weapon, you can cut the dragon is both ability and fate, but you must have good iron to match this keel, I have little time and no descendants, the ancestors have a few pieces of Beihai cold iron and Longyuan Xuanjin, and it will be fulfilled for you! Pick up the things and go into the backyard!" ”

Taixuan hurriedly thanked him, picked up things with Yang Guo and the others and followed behind him, and walked straight inside to a small courtyard, where there was a blast furnace, and everything was complete for striking iron. I saw the old man walk to a water tank and point to the ground and say, "Which of you dig this open, there is a box in it, take it out." ”

Taixuan said to Yang aisle: "Come on, you come." With that, he handed the Qingfeng Sword to Yang Guo, and then handed the Xuantie Heavy Sword to the old man. said: "Casting senior, this is the Xuantie heavy sword I got by chance, and a Qingfeng sword in my apprentice's hand, do you think it is used to cast three swords?"

The old man said: "This black iron is also a rare thing, you don't need to return the Qingfeng sword to the furnace, when the time comes, I will melt the leftovers used in this gun and this black iron to cast three swords for you, and you can draw the graphics yourself." ”
