Chapter 111 Borrowing the fire [New book asks for a monthly pass! 】
Gluttonous City.
In the city, there is a Yipin Jianlu, built against the mountain wall, covering a vast area and magnificent. While the sword hut faces inward, the real place where the owner lives is very simple, just a wooden house in front of the mountain.
In front of the mountain wall, a middle-aged man with vicissitudes of life stood with his hands behind his back. He had vigorous hair, straight outline, and deep-set eyes. His whole person was like a rock statue, with a rock-solid temperament.
The so-called master bearing.
This person is the owner of this sword hut, the master swordsmith Xu Kunwu who is respected by everyone in Taotie City.
But such a person, at this time, has a faint worry in his eyes.
"Father, did you call me?" A young man in hard clothes hurried over, his appearance was somewhat similar to the man in front of him, he was about thirty years old, and he looked simple and honest, with bright eyes.
is Xu Kunwu's only son, Xu Sui.
"Well." Xu Kunwu turned around and said: "You pass on an order to hide all the valuable materials, rare treasures, finished and semi-finished swords in the sword house, and don't need to hide them, just transport them to other places in the city for temporary storage , just don’t lose it. Wait for a while and bring it back.”
"This..." Xu Sui was very surprised, "What is this for? We still have dozens of swords in the sword cottage..."
"Stop first, wait for the limelight to pass before starting. You don't have much work to do, so it's okay to stop for a while." Xu Kunwu said decisively.
"But why?" Xu Sui was obviously very puzzled, "It's like guarding against thieves..."
Xu Kunwu looked at him and said solemnly: "Just be a thieves guard."
"Huh?" Xu Sui was surprised again, "Which thief dares to come to our Yipin Jianlu to steal things, and don't want to live anymore?"
"It's not bad to steal, I'm really afraid that she will steal it..." Xu Kunwu's eyes flickered, obviously he had some bad memories.
"What's going on?" Xu Sui was at a loss, completely unaware of what happened, why his father, who had always been prudent, suddenly seemed to be in a catastrophe.
"Do you remember that I refined a Jingyang sword twenty years ago." Xu Kunwu said.
"Of course I remember, it was one of the few famous swords that my father forged." Xu Sui mentioned this, his eyes were full of pride for his father, "It was also a key battle for my father to become a top swordsmith in the world."
"At that time, the piece of pure yang iron was so yang and strong. I tried dozens of kinds of divine fires, but I couldn't refine it. I almost fell short." Xu Kunwu recalled, "Later, I worked hard and finally obtained a real fire of samadhi. , finally refined this material and forged the Jingyang Sword."
"Samadhi real fire? That's not the royal family..."
When the Jingyang Sword was born, Xu Sui was still young and did not understand the details. Hearing what my father said at this time, I couldn't help being a little surprised.
Immortal method, Samadhi true fire.
is the strongest flame in the world, the spirit of all fires. Only the divine fire life among the five elements spirit body can cultivate this kind of immortal technique, but that divine fire life is the ancestral blood of the Xia family of the royal family of the Yu Dynasty.
In such a world where gods and demons rise from the land, it is obviously impossible for a mortal to be called emperor. Even if the Nine-Five Supreme is not extremely powerful, at least he must have the qualifications to be recognized by the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Before the establishment of the Yu Dynasty, the Xia family was one of the three ancient families in the world of cultivating immortals.
A Tianjiao cultivator can establish a fairy gate, but cannot establish an aristocratic family. Because the sect can choose talents to cultivate, but the aristocratic family cannot guarantee that the talents will be superior from generation to generation. Unless, this family inherits some kind of magical blood.
The three ancient families of cultivating immortals are the Xia family who inherited the divine fire, the Ji family who inherited Xuanyuan Tong, and the Jiang family who inherited the fairy body.
As long as this kind of physique grows normally, it can be compared to the current Tianjiao, and can become the mainstay of the family. It must be that there must be such a person of the level of Tianjiao from generation to generation, so that an ancient family can continue to this day.
Later, in the troubled times, the Xia family rose up to proclaim themselves emperor, established the Yu Dynasty and became the royal family. To this day, the ancestral precepts are still followed, and only those who inherit the fate of the gods in each generation are eligible to become the crown prince, just to ensure that the future emperor must be strong enough.
Otherwise, if the king of a country is easily killed, the stability of the country will be impossible to talk about.
Only the Xia family has Shenhuo Ming, and only Shenhuo Ming can practice Samadhi True Fire, which is well known. However, as the royal family, the Xia family has their own imperial swordsmith, who has always been in competition with Xu Kunwu. Logically, it is unlikely that the royal family will help their father who is enshrined in Taotie City.
"It is not only the royal family who have the true fire of Samadhi." Xu Kunwu shook his head and said, "I asked for it from other places, and then forged the Jingyang Sword. It's just... well, I owe a favor because of it."
"Now..." He looked at the distant sky, "That person is coming."
…
"Borrow fire?"
Chu Liang was startled for a moment.
"That's right, he borrowed money from me back then." The emperor's daughter Feng was triumphant.
Chu Liang really didn't know about this. In his concept, if Emperor Nvfeng had connections, they must be enemies.
Do you have positive connections?
It's shocking.
And it’s Kunwu’s teacher...
The three major swordsmiths in the world today are Chen Buyan, the ancient swordsmith of Zhongshan Jianlu, Bai Litong, the imperial swordsmith of Yudu, and Xu Kunwu, the Yipin of Taotie City.
Among them, the ancient sword casting technique of Zhongshan Jianlu inherited by Chen Shi does not emphasize materials, but heavy sword intent. Concentrate on cultivating sword intent, mysterious and eclectic, but every time you achieve something, it must be a famous sword handed down from generation to generation.
Most of the swordsmiths of the ancient school did not make more than ten swords in their lifetime, so although their status is high, they cannot be entrusted. In terms of skill alone, Master Chen is recognized as number one in the world.
Master Baili is enshrined by the royal family and enjoys a lot of honor, and the sword casting is only customized for the royal family and court figures.
Master Kun is the first-rank enshrined in Taotie City. Although his status is still high, he is the only one among the three who faces the market. There is no doubt that customers must be screened by price.
The price... can only be said to be expensive.
It is the kind of expensive that Chu Liang can't even imagine.
So when Di Nvfeng mentioned that name, Chu Liang's first reaction was how dare she? Could it be that they want to sell the land of Silver Sword Peak? I'm afraid it's not enough, the two of them have to work as tour guides at the gate for a hundred years.
Is it worth so much to borrow a fire?
"Actually, I didn't have friendship with him at the beginning. I just wanted to disgust some old guys, so I helped him. Who knows that he has become a well-known master swordsmith all these years." Emperor Feng Scratching his head, he said with a smile, "If I hadn't been thinking about where to get you a good sword that day, I would have almost forgotten about it."
"But Master, since you have this connection, why do you need to borrow the ancient sword of Xiaoyun? Just ask Master Kun to bring us a good sword." Chu Liang wondered.
In his mind, Master Kun must have many finished flying swords in his hands. Just choose the best one for yourself, it will be much better than the ones you can buy at a high price from Chuanjian Hall in Shushan. That being the case, why did my master and apprentice run over with Xiaoyun's ancient sword in their arms, and insisted on making him a copy?
"Then it will be too easy to pass away." The emperor Feng Xie smiled charmingly, "We finally caught a toad, and we must not grab its excrement and fart together..."
