The weapon in the soldier's hand is the soldier's life.

But if the knife in a soldier's hand is not sharp, or it is simply unusable after the First World War, it is a disaster for a soldier, or even for an army.

Among the princes, although the land of Ye in the northwest is barren, and the annual harvest is not even as good as that of a county in the southern grain-producing country, the system of the Ye people is the best among the princes, which is why the foot soldiers of the Ye people in the capital are difficult to meet opponents in the world.

But it is precisely because of the poverty of Ye that the craftsmen of other vassal states are unwilling to come to Ye State, even the craftsmen of Ye State will try their best to go to other vassal states.

This also led to the low level of forging in Ye State, unable to produce high-standard swords and weapons, when Chu Yujia led the army to raid the territory of Qi State before, there were several encounters along the way, but it was nothing, even if it was outside the capital of Qi State against thousands of enemy horses, he didn't feel anything.

What really distressed Chu Yujia was that when he was fighting against the forbidden army outside the palace, the knives in the hands of the soldiers had already been curled, and many people's knives were even snatched from the enemy after killing them.

It's good to say that no matter what the casualties are, you can at least pick up the enemy's weapons and fight the enemy while fighting, but you know, their army is cavalry, how can the cavalry change weapons?

Although Chu Yujia was already aware of these things, and when he set out, he equipped each cavalry with two combat knives, but how many people died when changing their combat knives, and how many people were stabbed to death by the enemy's backhand because the blade of the combat knife could not cut through the enemy's armor......

Originally, Chu Yujia didn't expect this, but when he saw the pocket sword at the bottom of the mountain, and heard Wang Shijiu say that this pocket sword was forged by Xuan Qi, he thought of asking Xuan Qi to go down the mountain to help him make weapons for the sergeant, at least teach himself some forging techniques.

When he heard that Chu Yujia wanted to ask him to go back and help him make swords and other weapons for the generals in the army, Xuan Qi was actually very happy.

He has mediocre talent in martial arts, and he has no interest in it, what he really likes is really the craftsman's trade.

He also knew how many juniors and brothers in the door laughed at him, but he just didn't like to learn martial arts, there was no way to do it.

At the beginning, Wang Yuanqing accepted him as an apprentice, not because of how good his talent was, but because he was an orphan and helpless.

Nominally, the two are master and apprentice, but in fact they are father and son.

It's also so many years that someone finally values his talent, and Xuan Qi is still very proud.

Xuan Qi pretended to hesitate and said: "This is not good, you also know that our sect has recently accepted a lot of new people, I have to help......"

"Help?"

"What can I do with you?"

Wang Jiujiu rolled his eyes, didn't give Xuan Qi face at all, and said: "You are here, you can only make trouble for us, hurry back and pack your things, and when Senior Brother Chu returns to the capital, you will go back with you." ”

Xuan Qi's face was darkened, but he didn't have a temper, and he glanced at Chu Yujia stupidly.

Seeing the appearance of the two, Chu Yujia shook his head with a wry smile, raised his hand and patted Xuan Qi's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, senior brother, whatever you need, as long as I can give it to you, I will give it to you." ”

Not daring to sprinkle fire on Wang Nineteen does not mean that he does not dare to sprinkle fire on Chu Yujia, and said angrily: "I want to be a general." ”

"Okay, if senior brother wants to be a general, then be a general. ”

"Really?"

Xuan Qi was just talking angry, but he didn't expect Chu Yujia to really agree.

"Of course. ”

Chu Yujia chuckled: "I may not count what I said elsewhere, but I can still call the shots in the Northwest Army, I happen to have an ordnance battalion, and it is my military division who is temporarily in charge, and when you go back, the ordnance battalion will be under your control, what do you think?"

Hearing Chu Yujia's words, Xuan Qi stretched out a finger and said, "I just have a question." ”

"You speak. ”

"Is the official big?"

Hearing Xuan Qi's question, Chu Yujia suddenly cried and laughed, and said, "There are three thousand people under his hands, do you say it's a big deal?"

"Three thousand, ......"

Xuan Qi glanced at Wang Nineteen ostentatiously.

Wang Nineteen pursed his lips and said, "Three thousand people will be three thousand people, what is there to show off, if I go, Senior Brother Chu will definitely let me be the commander of the corps." ”

"Yes, yes, yes. ”

Chu Yujia chuckled, it was normal for these two to quarrel.

Qin Xiao also smiled on the side and said, "Okay, let's go see the master, don't stand here." ”

After saying this, the two people who were not listening to the quarrel stopped and followed Qin Xiao into the manor.

The outside of this Zhuangzi is where the disciples live, and inside this Zhuangzi is where Wang Yuanqing and several closed disciples live, and even left a room for Chu Yujia inside, but he never came to live.

As soon as I entered, I saw a thin old man, lying on a chaise longue, enjoying a little shade in the shade of a tree.

If you don't say it, who would have thought that such a thin old man in sloppy clothes and holding a fan in his hand could be the Northwest Sword Saint who has crossed the water and a thousand swords have risen into the air.

"Master!"

Qin Xiao walked closer and said respectfully, "Senior Brother Chu is here." ”

"Hmmm......"

Hearing this, Wang Yuanqing struggled to jump up from the recliner, straightened his open clothes, and after looking up and seeing Chu Yujia, he pretended to say, "Yujia is here?"

"Yu Jia pays a visit to Master. ”

Chu Yujia gave a salute.

Wang Yuanqing waved his hand, grabbed the teacup from the table next to him, took a sip of the cold tea, and said while fanning the fan: "On this hot day, did you bring something here?"

"Naturally, I brought it. ”

Chu Yujia smiled and took the package from Zuo Jinkai beside him, and after opening it, there was a delicate food box inside, which was placed on the table, and said, "Master's favorite ice candy, I haven't forgotten it." ”

When you open the food box, you will find delicately shaped pastries inside.

Wang Yuanqing grabbed one casually, threw it into his mouth, smashed it, and said with a face full of enjoyment: "It's still my little apprentice who is sensible, and he still remembers what his master likes to eat." ”

"Master, if you eat something, I'll take that person away. ”

"Huh?"

Wang Yuanqing raised his eyebrows, glanced at Chu Yujia, and said, "Take someone away?"

"Yes, Master, I have already told Senior Brother Xuan just now, come down the mountain with me. ”

"What?"

Wang Yuanqing stood up, pointed to the pastry box and said, "A box of ice candy took my beloved apprentice away?"

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yuanqing said with a dissatisfied face: "That's not good......

As soon as he heard this, Xuan Qike was happy and said, "Yes, Senior Brother Chu, I will go down the mountain, and I have to nod from the master." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, Wang Yuanqing said: "Get two boxes." ”

In an instant, several people were embarrassed.

"Cheng, wait for me next time I come, and bring you a car. ”

"That's not going to work, it's my beloved disciple. ”

Wang Yuanqing is a lover of his mouth, and the one he calls is kind, but this time Xuanqi didn't want to be slapped in the face, so he didn't pick up.

In the end, Wang Yuanqing said: "If you bring it, you have to take a few more." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Chu Yujia's face was full of inexplicability.

At this time, Wang Yuanqing sat back on the recliner and said, "That kid Qi Chong, didn't you meet in the capital last time?"

"Yes. ”

Speaking of this, Chu Yujia remembered and asked, "By the way, Master, who in Ye Kingdom has the ability to stab you?"

"Don't mention that. ”

Wang Yuanqing waved his hand and said: "I'm talking about that kid from Qi Chong, after that kid came back, his admiration for you in his words was like a surging river, so I thought about asking him to bring a few senior brothers to you, anyway, they are all out of the school, it is a waste to stay by my side, you must have a place to arrange them when you come to you, and I just have a few mouths to eat here." ”

Although Wang Yuanqing said something disgusting, Chu Yujia knew that Wang Yuanqing was thinking about himself.

Chu Yujia and Wu Dangguo's affairs were in an uproar, and Wang Yuanqing himself had already dealt with those disciples raised by Wu Dangguo, so he naturally knew that these people were not easy to deal with.

That's why he threw Qi Zhong and other senior brothers who were quite good at throwing him to him, to put it bluntly, he was worried about Chu Yujia's safety.

In this regard, Chu Yujia did not refuse, nodded and said, "That Yujia has thanked Master." ”

"Thank you, thank you, it's all your own family. ”

Wang Yuanqing took a deep breath and said: "If you encounter any difficulties, tell the master, although the master is old and it is a little difficult to lift the sword, but this swordsmanship is still there, and he can still do it with those old boys to kill the sunrise and sunset." ”

"I don't have any difficulties. ”

Chu Yujia pursed his lips, looked at Wang Yuanqing and said, "I'm just worried about you......"

"I have nothing to worry about. ”

Wang Yuanqing smiled and said: "As far as Wu Dangguo's old boy, he can't take it as a teacher, if he is really capable, he will directly bring troops to my temple mountain to level my Cloud Piercing Sword Sect, otherwise those cats and dogs he sent will be a sword matter in me." ”

This is Wang Yuanqing's mantra, since he was a child, Wang Yuanqing told Chu Yujia that there is nothing in the world that cannot be solved with a sword.

If one sword can't solve it, then a thousand swords will do.

Hearing this, Chu Yujia also felt a lot more relieved, so he said: "I didn't have anything to do this time just to see the master, but now I am optimistic, the affairs of Yujia's army are complicated, so I will leave first, and when I am free, I will come to see the master." ”

"Okay, come back when you're free. ”

Wang Yuanqing said: "You don't have to worry about me, they can't do anything to me, if they want to touch me, they still have to cultivate for decades." ”

"With Master's words, I am relieved. ”

Saying goodbye to Wang Yuanqing, Chu Yujia came to the door and glanced at Qin Xiao, in the last assassination, I heard that Qin Xiao was also injured, but looking at his appearance, it seemed that there was nothing wrong.

Seeing Chu Yujia's expression, Qin Xiao also understood Chu Yujia's thoughts, so he said: "Your senior brother is very tough, that injury is nothing, besides, they came that time it was a sneak attack, we didn't react, this time it's different, the garrison is perfect, if they dare to come, I will dare to kill." ”

"Then this sect is going to trouble Senior Brother. ”

Chu Yujia bowed slightly to Qin Xiao, and then took Zuo Jinkai into the distance.

Looking at Chu Yujia's back, Qin Xiao sighed, and then returned to the martial arts arena to continue staring at those new disciples to practice alchemy.
