Chapter Thirty-Six: The Mountain Rain is Coming, and the Wind Fills the Building (Part II)
The one who came to the door to fight the sword was a Western Qin swordsmith.
That's right, it's a swordsmith, not a swordsmith.
Jianchuan adheres to the centuries-old sword-casting culture, and the weapon is respected by the sword, which does not mean that there are no other weapons. As a common blade in the rivers and lakes, there are not many knives in Jianchuan City, but there are few casters who mainly use knives.
But today there is a knife forger, and he is from Western Qin.
"I heard that your Wind and Fire Forging Yan Master knows the art of the unity of man and sword, and a certain family is not talented, so I came here to ask for advice. ”
At the gate of the Wind and Fire Forging, a bearded man was staring at Duan Heihu in front of him with big eyes of copper bells.
There were several people standing beside him, one of them was a young man, about twenty years old, heroic and sassy, and his whole body was like a sword out of its sheath, full of sharpness.
Obviously, this swordsmith has studied Yan Li's theory of the unity of human and sword, and he came prepared with a swordsman with him!
To say that this knife caster is about the same size as Duan Heihu, he is a black iron tower type with a strong body and a big waist and a round waist, and he has a blacksmith style at first glance. And the two black iron towers staring at each other in front of the wind and fire forging gate, which can form a unique landscape.
Duan Heihu is very unhappy at the moment.
In the past, wind and fire forging was just a small workshop, and sword fighting has always been only a matter of excitement. Now the successive door-to-door visits show that the wind and fire forging has been carried forward...... But trouble is trouble, who can stand it when it comes out like this?
Especially since the other party is not from Jianchuan at all, he is an outsider from Xiqin. Although Duan Heihu is bold and straightforward, he has also mixed in the rivers and lakes, and he understands the other party's thoughts at a glance: he is just a newcomer to the swordsmith, and he wants to make a name for himself in Jianchuan City, so he came to Wind and Fire Forging, planning to use Yan Li as a stepping stone!
What a fucking filth!
Duan Heihu said in his heart.
It's true that Master Yan has real materials, but you are also a nine-foot-tall man, and with that beard, you also have the face to challenge a sixteen-year-old boy?
The other party's words were quite polite, and Duan Heihu was not easy to scold, so he had to follow the etiquette of the rivers and lakes, and hugged his fist and said: "Duan Heihu, the master of forging in the wind and fire." I wonder which master is in front of you? What is the name of the Guibao?"
"A certain Zheng Meng, under the West Qin Jiuhuan Mountain, under the jurisdiction of a foundry, called: Huwei Hall. ”
As soon as the name came out, Duan Heihu gasped.
Huweitang is a Western Qin foundry, but it is famous all over the world, and it is not inferior to many old sword casting workshops in Jianchuan City.
There were three major powers in the Central Plains: Western Qin, Eastern Qi, and Southern Chu.
The three major powers, each with a strong army, are: the Western Qin Huya Soldiers, the Eastern Qi Dragon Scale Guard, and the Southern Chu Chiling Army.
The Han family is because of Han Tieyi, who once rectified the Chiling Army and made great military achievements, so that they have today's status, and we can know what strength is behind these three strong armies.
The West Qin Foundry Huwei Hall is a special foundry for the Huya soldiers, which specializes in casting various equipment for this powerful army in the world.
And Huweitang is still an industry subordinate to the other party's division, which shows the great origin of Jiuhuan Mountain and the strong background!
It's not that the Raptors are not the river!
A swordsmith from the Tiger Power Hall suddenly came to Jianchuan City and opened his mouth to challenge the sword fighting sword to the wind and fire, there were too many meanings behind it! Duan Heihu's mind was not bright enough, he only felt confused, and he couldn't figure it out at all.
At this time, Yan Li arrived.
When Yan Li heard the origin of the other party, he also had a lot of thoughts, then he smiled suddenly, strode out, hugged his fists and said: "It's Yan Li below, I don't know if Master Zheng came from afar, what advice do you have?"
"Uh......" Zheng Meng was obviously stunned when he saw Yan Li, and it took a long time to clasp his fists and salute back, "Master Yan's name is like thunder, but he is such a young talent, he is ...... Uh......"
No more words below......
The "master" on the other side is estimated to be no more than two years older than his son, Zheng Meng asked himself is also a man, he boasted of standing up to the sky and the earth in his life, and now he is standing up to the age of the year, what is the matter with such a challenge?
If you win, that's called bullying the small, and if you lose...... Not only his own face, but I'm afraid that even the face of Shimen Jiuhuan Mountain will be thrown together in Jianchuan City!
After thinking about it, Zheng Meng couldn't help but curse in his heart: a group of unreliable bastards instigated Lao Tzu to fight swords, and they didn't carefully explain the bottom - why didn't anyone tell Lao Tzu that Yan Li was still a doll with no hair?
He originally thought that the rookie sword-casting who dared to claim the "unity of man and sword" should at least be at his age, maybe even older - sword-casting is not martial arts, and without decades of experience, he can't become a master. He Zheng Meng dared to call himself a "master" at the age of thirty-three, and he was also a "young man" with extraordinary talent and a teacher of Jiuhuan Mountain for decades.
Yan Li ignored the embarrassment of the other party, turned to the sharp young man and said, "Haven't you asked the name of this sword master yet?"
The young swordsman was not rude, and respectfully hugged his fists and said: "In the Xiadongsha Gang, I have seen Master Yan. The task is in the body, and where you offend, please master Haihan. ”
"Buchen!"
"Broken Wave Knife Dust!"
"The first day of the Dongsha Gang's martial arts!"
Yan Li had also heard of the name of Buchen. With Duan Yan's big-mouthed surname, the well-known figures of the Hengjiang Gang and the Dongsha Gang are almost grinding their ears out of their cocoons.
Bu Chen, known as the Broken Wave Knife, is the most talented young martial artist of the Dongsha Gang, twenty years old this year, quenching skin at the peak of cultivation, and may step into the exchange of blood at any time. Moreover, his background is not good, he was originally just in the ordinary list of the Dongsha Gang, and he fought all the way up with his own skills. Although it is the opposite, it is also one of Duan Yan's idols.
Think about it, Han Xi of the Han family, with the support of many resources, is also the peak of quenching at the age of twenty. And Buchen is just an ordinary gang member of the Dongsha Gang, it was impossible to have any resources a few years ago, and after working hard all the way, he can cultivate today, and he really lives up to the name of genius!
At this time, Guiyun behind Yan Li gently pulled the placket of his clothes. Yan Li immediately understood that this Buchen had a faint spiritual root! No wonder he cultivated so quickly!
And Yan Li even found that this genius swordsman's five qi was uneven, and his middle qi was slightly weak, which was a sign of using fierce drugs to stimulate his potential and forcibly improve his strength.
The swordsmith of Western Qin, the genius martial artist of the Dongsha Gang, appeared at this point in time when the Wang family had just been destroyed and the situation of the ancient tomb of the Martial King was about to open, coupled with Bu Chen's imperceptible abnormality, Yan Li instantly thought of countless possibilities-
In this game, the mountain rain is coming!
Countless hands, waiting to fall!
Yan Li put his hands behind his back and smiled leisurely: "Since the Bu Shaoxia of the Dongsha Gang has arrived, the Du Hong Du Shaoxia of the Hengjiang Gang must also arrive." ”
Du Hong is the most popular among the young chivalrous men of the Hengjiang Gang. He is much older than Bu Chen, he is twenty-three years old this year, and his cultivation is also at the peak of quenching. Legend has it that he was calm, but after the action was particularly desperate, once in a firefight, the white robe dyed into a red shirt, so the people of the rivers and lakes called - the bloody clothes Du Hong.
Yan Li knew even more that since the Dongsha Gang had dispatched Buchen, then Du Hong would definitely arrive later.
"The affairs of the Hengjiang Gang, Buchen is not clear. Buchen replied, "Of course, if Du Xueyi doesn't dare to come, he will inevitably be disappointed." ”
Bu Chen's words were sharp, but he didn't go to Yan Li, but he thought that in the Hengjiang Gang, only Du Hong could enter his eyes. As for Duan Yan of Wind and Fire Forging, he can only be regarded as a junior character, and cannot be compared with him.
At this time, Duan Yan was baring his teeth behind Yan Li, and he didn't dare to rush out - he also knew that he was not Buchen's opponent. It can be seen that Buchenping is famous.
"Buchenxiu is going to be rampant, and Hengjiang will help Du Hong to come!"
Sure enough, when Cao Ying was said, Cao Ying arrived. Before the previous words fell, the blood-clothed Du Hong made his debut.
I saw a few Hengjiang gang members separately surrounding the audience, the first heroic swordsman, wearing a white samurai suit, was draped in a silver cloak, his face was like a crown of jade, his eyebrows were sharp, his eyes were colorful, and his chivalrous pride soared into the sky.
In terms of appearance, Du Hong can shake off the dust a few streets.
But the sharp energy on Buchen's body leveled the momentum of the two of them.
Du Hong strode into the middle and saluted Yan Li: "Du Hong is late, please Master Yan Haihan!"
When Yan Li heard this, he felt quite ridiculous - the sword casting master of the Western Qin came to the door to fight the sword, and you Hengjiang helped the rescue late, what kind of drama is this? Although Buchen is here, you Du Hong have to join in the fun, but do I really need you?
Especially this appearance on the stage, it is obvious that it was carefully dressed up!
Sure enough, the rumors couldn't be believed. The surname is calm or something, just talk about it.
"There's Lao Du Shaoxia. Yan Lizhi said a perfunctory word, then turned around and no longer paid attention to this Du Xueyi.
He faced Zheng Meng and went straight to the point: "The so-called sword fighting is a method for Jianchuan casters to learn skills and resolve grievances. When the two sides go to war, there must always be a lottery. Master Zheng is not from Jianchuan, I don't know what chips he has, and he will fight with me in this game?"
"The Wang family's Spirit Sword Pavilion is one of them!" Zheng Meng said angrily.
Lingjian Pavilion is the most important industry of the Wang family, and it is also one of the largest foundries in Jianchuan City. The Wang family's sword-casting skills are exquisite, and they are better at drilling camps, so the scale of the Lingjian Pavilion is second to none in Jianchuan, and only the hardware hall and Gu Yueju behind the background are more sophisticated, and Su Fengzhai can suppress him.
The Wang family can show off their power in Jianchuan City, and the Spirit Sword Pavilion is also an important reliance.
But overnight, the Spirit Sword Pavilion became a bargaining chip between the Dongsha Gang and Zheng Meng.
As soon as these words came out, the four were stunned.
The onlookers were discussing: "Could it be that this Master Zheng of Western Qin joined forces with the Dongsha Gang to come out specifically for the Wang family?"
Yan Li didn't think so. A thought instantly turned in his mind: the Dongsha Gang moves so fast, and the gangs that can be left and right in the gap between the two great powers of Eastern Qi and Southern Chu are really not to be underestimated.
His logic goes like this:
It stands to reason that after the ambush of the Wang family's descendants at the South Wharf last night, the Han family cleaned up the battlefield and cooperated with several predecessors of Jianchuan City to find the Wang family to liquidate, and most of the Wang family's property should fall into the hands of the Han family, and some of it is the compensation that Fenghuo Forging deserves.
How could the Spirit Sword Pavilion become Zheng Meng's bargaining chip overnight?
There is only one possibility, that is, the Wang family has already made a deal with the Dongsha Gang, and the Spirit Sword Pavilion is a guarantee or mortgage. The Wang family was destroyed, and even if the remnants of the clan were not killed, they could not gain a foothold in Jianchuan, and the Lingjian Pavilion could only compensate the Dongsha Gang according to the agreement.
So, what is the deal between the Dongsha Gang and the Wang family? What kind of deal can make the Wang family bet on the Spirit Sword Pavilion?
If others think about it, they are bound to be confused. But Yan Li keenly thought of one thing - the Nine Abyss Ghost Blood Talisman in Wang Guocheng's hand.
Think about the life-saving hole card of Kingdom City, which comes from the Southern Xinjiang Witch Dao that everyone shouts about, and then think about the complex network of the Dongsha Gang in Southern Chu and Eastern Qi, and the answer is about to come out.
I'm afraid that behind the transaction, there will be even more unsightly transactions, and only in this way will the scheming Wang Chuan bet on the Spirit Sword Pavilion.
The Wang family has been against the Han family for a long time, and with the surname of Wang Chuan, it is bound to consider a way out. And the best way out is Xiqin. Therefore, the Wang family has long had something to do with the West Qin Huweitang, and at the same time, the Dongsha Gang has always wanted the water route of the West Qin, so it is logical to intervene in it.
However, there are always certain conditions between the three parties that have not been negotiated, so there is a stalemate.
Now that the Wang family is finished, the Dongsha Gang is keenly aware that the Hengjiang Gang and the Han family have some tacit understanding, and immediately feel that time is running out, so they pushed forward the originally deadlocked negotiations overnight - if they have not made progress, let alone the Jishui route of Western Qin, I am afraid that their original Dajiang route will also be divided by half of the Hengjiang Gang.
In this way, the Dongsha Gang invited the Western Qin swordsmith to come to the door to fight the sword, not for the sake of the remnants of the Wang family, but to give gifts.
That's right, I'm here to give gifts!
Yan Li's gaze fell on Buchen again.
