When I came to Yanjing, I first found the Yuan Dynasty government's Ministry of Industry and the general manager of all colors and craftsmen, the chief manager was called Tu Ribu, who had a deep friendship with Bala, and both of them had killed Han people on the battlefield, and their hands were stained with blood. After the two met and greeted each other, they entered the governor's mansion, and Turibu got straight to the point: "Brother Bala, is the sword cast?"

Bala Toast smiled slightly and did not answer.

Turibu also smiled and said: "Brother Bala, last time you checked the thousands of catties of iron you got from the Iron Bureau, the imperial court is unforgivable for the crime of private weapons, and no number of heads are enough to cut it, brother, you have to give me an accurate explanation." ”

Bala Toast took out the sword and put it in front of the head of Turibu and said: "The sword is here, you and I are both from martial arts, and whether the sword is good or not naturally can't hide it from you, brother." ”

The steward looked at the sword, the scabbard alone was worth a lot, it was refined from the finest yak skin, carved with dragon patterns, and the scabbard was made of gold and inlaid with jewels, which glittered in the light. But the head of Turibu said disdainfully: "There is nothing in the palace, gold, silver, silk, jewels and jade, all of them are priceless, you are nothing." ”

Bala Toast said, "A good sword with a good sheath is not of true value." ”

"Oh," said Turibu, who felt heavy as he picked up the sword, and the handle of the sword was thick, and the sword hidden in the sheath had a power before it was drawn, and it seemed to be lonely and proud, and it was extraordinary. He was very surprised, and slowly pulled out the sword, the sword howled, and the cold light was already pressing before it came out of the sheath, Turibu couldn't help but gasp, and pulled the sword out hard, but seeing that the sword qi was like a rainbow, tenacious and sharp, he danced casually, raising thousands of sword rays, it was really a sword like lightning, and the momentum was like thunder. Turibu was stunned and couldn't stop shouting: "Good sword, really good sword." ”

Bara Toast sat triumphantly and silently.

The chief of Turibu looked at Bala Toast and suddenly asked, "Brother Bala, where did you say this sword came from?"

Bala Toast said, "The thousands of pounds of iron you bought for me were cast." ”

"No, the Iron Bureau has the best iron and the best craftsmen in the country, but you can't even make a Damascus scimitar, you can cast such a treasure blade in a small Tusi Mansion, who can coax, is it the spoils of the Yellow Palace nobles in the Song Dynasty, you have not done less to do such a thing, steal the treasure for yourself, and then kill people. ”

"Brother Turibu, you can't say anything, have you done less such things, you might as well take out a sword like this and show it to me. Bala Toast was a little annoyed.

Tu Ribu Sword He was really anxious, and his tone softened: "Brother Bala, it's not that I doubt you, you know the emperor's temper, if you don't figure out the ins and outs, will he accept the sword lightly?"

Bala Tusi was right to think about it, but he would never say Ou Xuzi, so he prevaricated and said: "I saved a Han man, who was already dying at that time, as the saying goes, saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, I Bala has killed too many people, and I will see ghosts coming to me to ask for my life in my dreams at night, so I moved my heart of compassion, who would have thought that person was a very famous swordsmith, in order to repay my life, cast this sword." ”

Turibu smiled slightly and said, "Is this person still in your Tusi Mansion now?"

Bala Toast changed his painful expression and said, "Unfortunately, after forging the sword, he relapsed and died of an old disease, and there is no cure. ”

The head of Turibu looked at Bala for a long time, and said: "I have learned the wisdom of the Bala brothers, although this statement is very far-fetched, but it is also said in the past, the sword is dedicated to the emperor, and the Bala brothers are heartfelt and respectable, but the question is who will recommend it, you can't take the sword to the palace in person." ”

Bala Tusi shook his head and said: "Carrying weapons to the palace, I have a few heads, you are the head of the Ministry of Industry, of course you recommend it." ”

Turibu shook his head and did not speak.

Bala Tusi took out a silver ticket from his arms and handed it to Turibu, who didn't even look at it and said, "Brother Bala, you and I have made a lot of money in the Song Dynasty, do you still lack this money?"

Bala Tusi looked at him and asked: "Brother Turibu, you and I used to be happy people, galloping across the field, shrouding in horse leather, drinking wine in big bowls, eating meat in large pieces, the country has been defeated, you have become submissive and cautious, it is not your character, you can say what you want." ”

Turibu laughed: "Brother Bala is still so straightforward, then I will say, the woman named Miaoxuan in your house is still gone?"

Bala Toast pointed his finger at him and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Isn't there such a saying among the Han people, a gentleman does not take away the beauty of others. ”

"Bullshit, you and I are Mongolians, not Han Chinese, don't you just want Miaoxuan, a Han woman, how about I send people to your house as soon as the matter is completed?"

"Okay, happy, as soon as Brother Bala's sword is delivered to the Holy Lord, you will really soar, don't forget me when the time comes. By the way, the sword should be famous, what is it called?"
