Chapter 52: The Merchant Deal
Ma Heng followed Ma Jun and a few caravan people to stop and go, but he looked at it quite carefully and seriously. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but it made Ma Chao who came with him bored. Before I knew it, I came to an armory shop. I was immediately interested, and I ran in to see.
"Say whatever the guest officer needs, just look at it" A middle-aged strong man who was immersed in iron did not raise his head. A few apprentices who pulled the bellows next to them and prepared to quench were also distracted. No one went to greet Ma Chao.
Ma Chao directly crossed the farm tool area, came to the weapons area, picked up all kinds of weapons hanging on the wall, and flattened his mouth while looking at it, "This sword is too brittle, and this blade is too thick..."
Unconsciously, the strong man who was striking iron at the entrance of the shop led a few apprentices to approach Ma Chao, all of them with a calm face, staring at Ma Chao with an unkind face.
"Eh, I said you, a craftsman, have you hidden all the good weapons, and if you have any good treasures, take them out to the master, the master is not bad for money. Don't fool people around here. Ma Chao had a swaggering expression.
The strong man's face was even more ugly, and several apprentices clenched their fists, looking like they were going to beat people at any time, these are all samples outside, and the so-called samples are naturally the most sophisticated weapons in the store, but they were said to be rags by Ma Chao, and they also sarcastically hid good weapons. This is Ma Chao, who really thinks that all the good things are hidden. How to say this, unless the store is not ready to sell, the better the thing, the more it must be on the table.
"Oh, I don't know what the guest officer's so-called good weapon looks like, it's better to take it out and let the fool take a look, open his eyes, if it's to smash the field, don't blame the fool for being polite!" If it weren't for Ma Chao's gorgeous clothes, and his own Yu Xuan Ang was extremely extraordinary, Ma Chao, who spoke with a foreign accent, would have been beaten by a strong man.
At this time, Ma Chao naturally found out that something was wrong, but he still didn't care, he naturally didn't hold a spear when he went shopping, but he carried the long sword around his waist, drew out the long sword, and the cold light overflowed, Ma Chao stared at the strong man who was illuminated by the sword light and couldn't help squinting, and said proudly: "How about it, my long sword." ”
As a descendant of the Xiliang Ma family, Ma Chao's saber is naturally the most elite weapon, both in terms of material and craftsmanship, it is the top level of the Han Dynasty, if it is not for the lack of weapon spirit, it is not inferior to the yellow weapon.
The strong man's face changed, and he naturally saw that the long sword was extraordinary, but it was obviously a military product, and looking at this forging technique, it should still be a thing of the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty people came to the Qin Dynasty to show off their might, and the strong men and their apprentices picked up the weapons on the walls.
Seeing that it was a scene of disagreement and drawing swords, Ma Chao was not afraid, but was eager to try. After coming to the Qin Dynasty, he had long been impatient.
There was a thunderclap, and the disciples of the strong man were knocked to the ground one after another, but fortunately, Ma Chao had no intention of killing, and they were all knocked to the ground by Ma Chao with the hilt of his sword. Only the strong man's cultivation has reached the innate level, and the two of them suddenly fought together, and the blacksmith shop was suddenly in a mess.
Seeing that he was invincible for a while, Ma Chao was full of fighting spirit, "This son is going to move seriously." The long sword swung straight, and it was ready to see blood.
The strong man's expression was solemn, when did such a young man appear, but the acquired cultivation actually pressed himself to fight.
"Hehe, which son are you, why haven't you seen it, what kind of ability is it to bully this old man. A high-pitched teenager's voice came.
Ma Chao suddenly looked at the gate, only to see a handsome, thin young man staring at him, with a sneer on his face.
Ma Chao was suddenly furious, "Ben Gongzi didn't bully him, he drew his knife first." ”
Seeing Ma Chao and people confronting each other, Ma Heng hurriedly brought people in, and the thin young man did not stop him, turned sideways, and the accompanying Qin Dynasty soldiers saw the young man, and immediately hurriedly saluted, and then hurriedly introduced the origin of Ma Heng and others to the young man.
"What's going on. Ma Heng asked Ma Chao with a calm face.
Seeing that Ma Heng's face was calm, Ma Chao felt like a relative, as if he had been caught by his parents, and honestly told what happened.
After listening to Ma Chao, Ma Heng's face became cold, a brutal young man who didn't understand human feelings, but also in line with Ma Chao's character.
"Put away the sword. Ma Chao obediently put away his sword and hid behind Ma Jun, Ma Chao was still quite in awe of his eldest brother, although Ma Chao was very sure that under the same cultivation, Ma Heng may not be his opponent.
Ma Heng bowed deeply and said to the strong man: "I'm sorry for the shopkeeper, the little brother lacks courtesy, and he will definitely go back to discipline him strictly. ”
Seeing that Ma Heng and his entourage were dressed in gorgeous clothes all their lives, accompanied by soldiers and generals, the strong man but the old Qin people stubbornly came up, and said coldly: "Don't want any money and money, the foolish disciples have suffered a total of eight blows, and the fool wants this kid to pay back!"
Ma Chao's hand holding the long sword was immediately about to be pulled out, but was stopped by Ma Jun on the side. Ma Jun's strength naturally couldn't stop it, but under Ma Jun's constant signaling eyes, Ma Chao didn't pull out his sword in the end.
Ma Heng smiled slightly, "The eldest brother is like a father, and the younger brother is not well educated, so he is at fault below, can he suffer these eight blows for his younger brother below?"
Stared at Ma Heng for a few moments, "Being a brother is more sensible than your younger brother." The strong man said so, but he was not ambiguous at all, holding the knife in his backhand, and stepped forward to hit Ma Heng in the abdomen eight times in a row.
Taking three steps back, Ma Heng's face was flushed, and he slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity.
The long sword finally came out of its sheath, and Ma Chao stared at the strong man with a resentful expression. These eight blows are even more uncomfortable than hitting yourself.
Turning his head and staring at Ma Chao, Ma Heng said word by word: "If you are concerned about this matter, even if the Qin Dynasty army surrounds it, I will support you to the end, if you don't care, I don't dare to touch him at all." ”
After a long time, Ma Chao's eyes were red, and he seemed to have a trace of grievance, and he bowed deeply to the strong man with tears, "I'm sorry, the kid is rude, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”
The strong man said bluntly: "The eight blows have been returned, and they don't owe each other." ”
Ma Heng saluted again, and then took Ma Chao to prepare to leave. was stopped by a thin young man at the door.
The young man stared at Ma Chao with interest, "Most of you?"
Ma Chao, who was depressed, was naturally not interested in taking care of the young man, and the young man was not annoyed, and continued: "A certain fifteen, seeing that you are the same age as a certain one, and your cultivation is not bad, can you fight!" Without waiting for Ma Chao or Ma Heng to speak, "Three days later, a certain post will come to the door to challenge!"
With a salute to Ma Heng, the young man drifted away.
After this change, Ma Heng was not in the mood to go shopping again, and took everyone back to the post station.
And just as Ma Heng was leaving, a prodigal man muttered past the blacksmith shop, even if the flow of people around him had not dispersed, he didn't realize it, "This luck is really evil." ”
"Hey, this isn't a slave. The person who spoke rolled his eyes, and said with a shameful smile: "Isn't that group of people who just left from the Han Dynasty, and you, the exiled Liu Xiuyan, have not yet gone to recognize their ancestors and returned to their ancestors, maybe they can go back to the Han Dynasty to be an emperor." The crowd burst into laughter.
The prodigal man's face did not change, but he touched his shy bag, and a cunning glint flashed in his eyes.
After Ma Heng's questioning, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty also revealed the origin of the thin boy, the grandson of Prime Minister Wang Meng, and Wang Zhenevil. A teenager who has awakened in both martial arts.
"Meng Qi, this thing is you, you did it, no, this, the blacksmith shop, this blacksmith shop, it is, it is a small folk shop, made... The weapons made, naturally, can't, can't compare with our Xiliang..."Back at the post station, Ma Jun stumbled and explained to Ma Chao in private.
And Ma Heng ordered that Ma Chao must follow Ma Jun for an hour every day. It is also good to learn the three-character scripture, or the thousand-character text.
With Ma Chao's talent, it is naturally more than enough to become a fierce general in the future, Ma Heng also recalled the Japanese game he played in his previous life, whether it was force or command, Ma Chao was superb, but the intelligence column was only a few dozen, anyway, less than fifty. Ma Heng doesn't want Ma Chao to be like this in this life, not to mention becoming a wise general, that's not realistic, at least it's not easy to be played with in applause, and this is not difficult to say, it's just reasonable.
