Chapter 5 The rivers and lakes are helpless, and the sword fights (2)

It was a long sword made of stainless steel, three feet and two inches long, with a slightly narrow body and a thin spine, which was a popular style of fast sword. The sword body is full of delicate moire, and the cold light is clear under the morning glow.

As soon as Ding Can took a look, he knew that this sword was exquisite in workmanship and skillful, and in terms of building technology, it was enough to enter the next grade, which was better than Mo Feng's slashing skills. However, steel is steel. No matter how hard the steel is tempered, it can't withstand the slash of the dark iron.

How can steel beat dark iron?

"Hahaha......" Han Tong came to his senses and immediately laughed, "Wild seeds are wild seeds, I really don't know it." How can a steel sword be comparable to Xuantie? You don't think that a steel sword looks shiny and shiny, but it is better, right? If you really want to be brighter than that sword, I can admit that Xuantie can't. Hahaha......"

"The sword is a half-finished product and has not yet been completed. Yan Li said.

"Hahaha, laughing to death!" Han Tong laughed again, "Not to mention that you use half-finished products to fight swords, just the shelves at the door of your Wind and Fire Forging are all half-finished products, you can laugh to death half of the city!"

Except for Han Lin and Han Tong, most of the people present were puzzled, and no one understood how the "half-finished product" fought with swords. Only the old swordsman Ding Can's eyes flashed, and he vaguely thought of something, and listened intently to Yan Li's words.

"What an ignorant fool. Yan Li sneered, "This sword, with a sharp edge and a long and narrow body, is a standard standard steel fast sword. Placed in front of the door, it shows that the forging technique of Wind and Fire Forging is enough to forge a high-quality blade. On the other hand, in the past three years, have you ever produced a sword in the Iron Clothing Workshop? This alone is enough to prove that Wind and Fire Forging is above the Iron Clothing Workshop. The gold-lettered signboard of the Iron Cloak Workshop for decades has declined to this point in your Han Tong's hands, and it is not sad!"

These words made Ding Can, who presided over the sword fight, nod secretly, and everyone in the audience also admired. The Iron Cloak Workshop has been completely supported by the prestige of the Han family over the years, and it is really insignificant.

Han Tong was scolded again for no reason, and he couldn't help but jump like thunder, and shouted: "Sword fighting, sword fighting, don't talk about these things." What a fast sword, what a half-finished product, it's just an ordinary iron guy, how can it compare with the high-grade ink blade in my hand?"

"Let's just say that you are ignorant, and you don't know how to keep your mouth shut, so you don't have to be embarrassed!" Yan Li said disdainfully, "As a swordsmith of Jianchuan City, don't you know the rules of seeking swords from the three major sword gates, and why did the three major sword gates set these rules?"

The so-called three major sword gates are the three major sects in Jianchuan City, representing the three major sects governing Jianchuan City. They are the Tianfeng view of Taoism, the Zhuchan Temple of Buddhism, and the Sword and Bamboo Garden of Confucianism.

The divine soldiers of the Sword and Bamboo Garden, not all over the rivers and lakes, with chivalrous and righteous people can not get it, and the person who seeks the sword needs to carve the bamboo heart in the Sword and Bamboo Garden, and learn the swordsmanship with the Confucian students in the courtyard before he can get the sword. Casting the temple needs to bathe and fast, and the monk who casts the sword in the temple talks about the Buddha with martial arts, and participates in Zen with the body. Tianfengguan is even more direct, and the person who seeks the sword must come from the Dao Gate, and leave the move on the Tianfeng Stone empty-handed.

These rules are clear to every Jianchuan person. But when asked why, no one really thinks about it.

After Han Tong was scolded several times, he also knew that he couldn't get benefits verbally, so he didn't dare to answer. Han Lin beside him was not afraid, and said as a matter of course: "You still need to ask the reason? What is the status of the three major sword sects, if there are no rules, how can there be a square circle?"

This little young master is obviously comparing the three religions and Taoism to a noble lord, every time he talks about seniority and wealth, he must set rules to show his nobility if he has nothing to do.

Of course, that's what most people think. Even if he was born in Jianchuan and grew up listening to the sound of iron, how many people can really understand the mystery of kendo?

Only Ding Can heard the deep meaning from it, and he didn't dare to despise the young man in front of him.

"Huh. Yan Li chuckled, Zhizhu in his hand, "You are like you in the three major sword gates, and you have to rely on pretending to be a master? Could it be that the master of the three sects is just like you, an ignorant child, and your family's ironclad shop that can't even cast a high-quality sword? The three major sword gates have their own rules, and they all ask for the same, that is, the unity of human swords!"

This assertion was unheard of, and even Han Lin and Han Tong did not interrupt Yan Li's words.

Yan Li paused and continued: "A sword is a weapon after all. No matter what level of divine soldier, after all, they must cooperate with the swordsman to reach the peak. Similarly, no matter what kind of divine soldier it is, as long as there is no warrior with whom it has a tacit understanding, it is a piece of scrap iron. The standard format is only suitable for most beginners. For true sword masters, standard swords must be specially modified to achieve their best. Therefore, every standard standard sword is a semi-finished product. ”

Most of the people present felt that it was mysterious and mysterious, and they couldn't understand the mystery.

Only an old swordsman like Ding Can, his eyes lit up, and he felt a sense of suddenness, thinking: The Iron Cloak Fang persecuted this young man first, and then came to challenge him later, it was really stupid to go to Grandma's house. If such a genius is in my hardware hall, it is definitely afraid of breaking in his hand and afraid of melting in his mouth!

"I and the young master are the representatives of wind and fire forging, I am the swordsmith, and the young master is the swordsman. We used this steel sword to participate in the competition, of course, we have to modify it, and strive to be one with the sword of the young family. ”

Yan Li sonorously said his own way of participating, and the people who forged it were all bright.

This is an unprecedented method of sword fighting.

Sword fighting, according to the general rules, is that each side has a sword, and a respected swordsmith will comprehensively judge the level according to the quality and casting level. In the case of this sword fight, the ink blade of the Iron Clothes Workshop, the dark iron is the high-grade material, and the building method is not good, and the fine iron sword material forged by wind and fire is not good, so it must have the high-grade construction level to draw.

If there is a real draw, then the two swords will strike each other, and the one who breaks the sword will lose.

Of course, it is impossible for the construction level of wind and fire forging to reach the top grade, and it is already commendable to be able to enter the lower grade, otherwise how can it be a small workshop? This is the reason why the iron clothing workshop is conceited and must win.

However, the situation is different now.

Yan Li suddenly put forward the standard of the unity of human swords, designated Duan Yan to cooperate with this sword, and used the three high sword gates as a pretense, no one could refute it. As long as he can make this steel long sword cooperate with Duan Yan seamlessly, he can at least draw with Mo Feng.

Sure enough, before the Iron Cloak Fang could refute it, Ding Can paused word by word, and said extremely seriously: "Little Brother Yan has such insight at such an age, it's really amazing! Don't say that the unity of man and sword, as long as Little Brother can make the sword and the swordsman cooperate seamlessly, there will be a place for you among the sword casting masters!"

"Seniors have won awards. Yan Li saluted Ding Can, turned around and said to Duan Yan, "Please try your sword at home." ”

Duan Yan also swept away his previous anger and depression, and his tiger eyes had a little more brilliance.

Every Jianchuan boy has a dream of being a swordsman, and Duan Yan is certainly no exception. Otherwise, he would not have put down his family business and went to Hengjiang to help work hard in the rivers and lakes. For swordsmen, the legendary realm of "the unity of man and sword" has a fatal attraction, and even the slightest hope is enough to excite them.

Without saying a word, he strode forward, choked and pulled out the standard stainless steel fast sword, and dodged sideways to use the first three styles of the family legend "Burning Wind Sword Technique", and instantly a gust of wind swept in front of the wind and fire forging door, and the dust under his feet was scattered, and only the air could smell the sword wind.

Duan Yan's skills are solid, his swordsmanship is pure, and only a master of Ding Can's level can discover the hidden obstacles in his swordsmanship, and even Han Lin, a young genius with skills comparable to him, can't succeed.

I'm afraid that only Yan Li, who has lived one more life in his dreams and has seen countless skill masters, can discover the key to stagnation without learning martial arts.

Everything is already under Yan Li's grasp.

The fast sword is really suitable for Duan Yan, but this sword is not fast enough!

"Well, please come in with me. Yan Li said, and slowly walked into the inside of the Wind and Fire Forging.

Duan Yan then entered, and the tension and excitement in his eyes could not be hidden.

The work of the swordsmith has always been private, and the four swordsmiths of Wind and Fire Forge unceremoniously blocked the door. The crowd could not stand by, but could only talk in the same place.

The Iron Cloak Workshop, which was originally in the hands of the winner, couldn't help but feel nervous at this time - the combination of human and sword is something, mysterious and mysterious, and it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood. In case of...... If there really is a ...... The sword fighting and gambling agreement has been made, and if the Iron Cloak Workshop loses, it can only close the door and get out, how will they explain to the Han family when the time comes?

"That wild seed ......," Han Lin began to groan with little confidence.

"Young master, don't worry, he has never forged a sword!" Han Tong could only bite this one to death to increase his self-confidence. Although he felt more and more that this confidence was not very reliable.

At the same time, the wind and fire forged the inside, next to the anvil.

"Brother Yan, you ...... Are you sure you want to do this?" When it came to the end, Duan Yan was less confident than the people in the Iron Cloak Workshop - Yan Li's transformation method looked extremely ridiculous.

"Well, pretty sure. Only Yan Li herself is calm and confident.

"But ......"

"But the younger brother is injured and can't move the hammer, so he can only ask Brother Duan to do it for him. ”

"That's easy to say......"

"Since it's easy to say, what is Brother Duan hesitating about? If this hammer goes down, we will win. ”

"This ......"

"Duan Da is sick in bed, how much time does the young master have to delay? The boy is alive, and he must finally give it a go!"

This sentence finally moved Duan Yan, his eyes widened, he clenched his teeth, picked up the hammer in his hand, and slammed it down.

"Whenβ€”"

A loud sound of striking iron came from the wind and fire forging, which shocked everyone outside the door. Immediately after, two young figures stepped out of the door.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the fast sword in Duan Yan's hand.

The sword was missing a tip of about three inches.

A broken sword.

"Hahahaha......" Han Tong, who saw it clearly, laughed loudly, and laughed more heartily than the previous few times, "What a half-finished product, what kind of person and sword are one, it is really grandstanding, nonsense! Originally, this sword was not bad, and it could barely be entered, but now it ...... Hahahaha, it's really scrap metal!"

Han Lin beside him also pouted and showed an evil smile, thinking in his heart: The wild seed is really a wild seed, no matter how powerful the mouth is, it is all mud that can't support the wall.

Not to mention these two opponents, it is Ding Can, who secretly supports the wind and fire forging, and the two brows are wrinkled into a Sichuan character.

Duan Yan, who was holding a broken sword, looked at Ding Can's expression, and also became nervous - the other party's Mo Feng slash was not comparable to the stainless steel fast sword, not to mention this waste sword that had been broken for a section?

In the puzzled eyes of the audience, only Yan Li said in a calm voice: "Please try the sword again!"
