Sweeping the world

Chapter 89 New Knife
"There always seems to be something wrong."

In the Chen family mansion, in a relatively remote hall, a raging fire was burning.

A huge stove is placed in front of you, with hot molten iron flowing on it, and it is smoking at the moment.

A black long knife is located in it, and it is neighing in it at the moment.

"Operation error."

Looking at the recast black long sword in front of him and its appearance, Chen Ming couldn't help but shook his head: "I made it into this appearance all at once."

In his hand, the black long knife seemed to be covered with gray marks, and there was a mottled color on it. It seemed that other materials had been added during the smelting process, so that there were many impurities in it.

Compared with the previous appearance of this long knife, this black knife looks very shabby at this moment, it seems to have dropped several grades at once.

However, despite the decline in appearance, the power contained in it has suddenly increased.

After devouring all kinds of materials that Chen Ming collected during this period, the power of this knife has been significantly improved. Even if you just hold it in your hand, you can feel a steady stream of power pouring into your body .

This is the power of the magic weapon contained in the long knife, which has been upgraded to a higher level than before.

"Anyway, this knife is finally done."

Looking at the long knife that looked extremely cold in his hand, Chen Ming shook his head and sighed for a moment, then carefully put away the long knife.

On the side, a few old blacksmiths sent by Chen Yu to assist him watched this scene in a daze, with strange expressions on their faces.

"Laugh if you want."

Chen Ming waved his hand, and said helplessly, "It's also my first time blacksmithing, and I'm not good at business. It's normal for me to be like this."

Since visiting Mingwei that day, he has obtained a smelting method from the other party.

That method is not complicated, for Chen Ming, it is just a matter of tapping twice with Yuanli.

But the subsequent manual operation gave him a big problem.

The mastery of the smelting method only gave him a deeper understanding of the power of the magic weapon, but it did not make him a good blacksmith.

For this reason, he had to ask Chen Yu to invite several well-known master blacksmiths nearby to help him forge weapons.

It's a pity that, as a time traveler, Chen Ming has learned Chinese and English, passed the college entrance examination, read poetry and practiced martial arts, but he has never learned how to forge iron.

Even with a few masters assisting, it still ended up like this.

As for the knife he drew, it was okay to carry on his body at ordinary times, but if he really wanted to take it out, he might throw him to death before hacking him to death.

Standing on the side and witnessing the whole process of Chen Ming casting soldiers, the faces of the several masters were also flushed. They didn't know whether they were blushing because of Chen Ming, or they couldn't help but want to laugh.

When they were invited by Chen Yu, these masters heard that they were casting weapons for the new champion of martial arts, and all of them rolled up their sleeves, as if they wanted to do a big job.

But in the end, I didn't expect such a result.

Of course, since he managed to invite someone here, Chen Ming didn't plan to let him come here for nothing.

"Masters, in the next few days, can you forge a knife for me?"

Looking at several blacksmiths in different costumes, Chen Ming said, "Of course, the price is easy to negotiate."

Finally useful to our place!
Several masters were excited immediately, and said quickly: "This is what should be done. The number one scholar has a life, so we are naturally willing."

"Okay, then I will trouble Master and others."

Very satisfied with the attitudes of the masters, Chen Ming nodded with a smile, then hurriedly confessed a few words, clarified his request, and left quickly.

There is a stove in this room, and it's too stuffy inside, so it's better to leave early.

After walking out of the room, Chen Ming saw a figure not long after walking.

Yang Shi was standing outside the room alone, wearing a simple robe, he seemed to have been standing there for a long time.

Seeing Chen Ming walking out of the house, he seemed relieved, and then said, "Cousin!"

It's still the same name, but compared to before, it seems a bit restrained.

No wonder.

When I didn't know it before, it was okay to say that everyone's level is not much different, and we can get along with each other calmly, but after the truth is exposed, it becomes extremely difficult to get along with each other calmly.

When a person has the power to easily determine the future of another person's life, can you still treat him like an ordinary person?
"cousin?"

Seeing Yang Shi, Chen Ming was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, and said, "Why are you here suddenly? You didn't send anyone to say hello to me."

"Some things are easier to talk about in person."

Seeing that Chen Ming's attitude was as peaceful as ever, Yang Shi secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and then said, "I am here this time to bid farewell to you, cousin."

"Has it been decided?"

Chen Ming wasn't too surprised by Yang Shi's sudden farewell, he just asked, "Where do you decide to go?"

"Go to the branch of the Yujing Division in Anzhou. As for the specific location, it has not yet been determined."

Yang Shiru said: "Uncle is helping me, hoping to transfer me to a better place."

"Master Yujing?"

Chen Ming frowned, and said, "Cousin, have you thought about it?"

"Think about it."

Yang Shi looked resolute and nodded, "I thought about this issue well before I entered Beijing."

"I wasn't born very well, but I'm a small family in the countryside. If my uncle didn't support me, I wouldn't be able to practice martial arts in my life."

"I'm not like you, my cousin. I'm very talented at a young age. As long as I concentrate on cultivating, I will be able to soar into the sky in the future."

"For a person like me, if he wants to get ahead, he can only fight with his life, and fight for a rich background!"

His face was firm, and his face looked extraordinarily firm at this moment.

"Why bother"

Seeing his appearance, Chen Ming secretly sighed in his heart, but he didn't say much to persuade him, he just said calmly: "I will ask someone to bring a letter to Anzhou Mu later, asking him to take care of you more."

"That couldn't be better."

Yang Shi smiled: "With Zhuangyuan Lang's face, my life will be much easier in the future."

"What face is there?"

Chen Ming shook his head, then looked at Yang Shi, and said again: "What about that Miss Liu family?"

Mentioning this, Yang Shi clenched his fists tightly, with a wry smile on his face: "She is the young lady of the Liu family, and even the eldest daughter of the Liu family. She was engaged to the young master of the Liu family a few years ago."

"I can't do anything."

Hearing this, Chen Ming frowned, but still said, "Maybe there is still a chance?"

"There is no chance."

Yang Shi smiled bitterly: "The old man of the Liu family is notoriously stubborn. Now that the engagement has been made, it is impossible to change it."

Chen Ming didn't speak any more, but just listened to Yang Shi's words quietly, keeping silent.

"It's getting late."

After a while, Yang Shi smiled freely, looked at Chen Ming and cupped his hands: "I should leave."

"Next time you are free, come to Anzhou to have a look, cousin, I will work for you."

"it is good."

Chen Ming smiled, then nodded, watching Yang Shi's figure leave.

Time passed slowly, and soon, Yang Shi's back disappeared from his sight without leaving even a trace.

He stood alone on the spot for a long time, finally shook his head, and finally went down to rest.

A few days later, when Chen Ming was about to board the convoy leaving the Imperial Capital, his new knife had already been cast.

This is a long black knife with dots of golden texture embroidered on it. At first glance, it looks very similar to the knife that Lu Qi gave him.

In fact, Chen Ming deliberately made people look like this.

Although Lu Qi is gone, his influence on Chen Ming cannot be erased.

He can't really do anything, he can only use this way to commemorate the other party.

Holding the brand new black gold long knife in his hand, a unique texture came from his hand.

Compared with the black knife he cast alone, the quality of this knife is much better, it can be regarded as a heaven and an earth.

"how?"

Looking at Chen Ming trying the knife in front of him, an old bearded man stroked his beard, looked at Chen Ming and said proudly: "This is made of rare gold and iron, and it is the culmination of the skills of the seven of us. It can be called a famous knife in the world.”

"Um, how much is it?"

"Not much, only 8000 taels of silver."

The corner of Chen Ming's mouth twitched. Before he could speak, his cousin Chen Ziling couldn't help but jumped out, with a look of being slaughtered: "8000 taels for a knife? Is your knife made of gold?"

"More precious than anything made of gold!"

The old beard looked like you didn't know the goods: "Mere gold, how can it compare with gold and iron!!"

"This gold and iron is the most rigid iron in the world, and its value is much more expensive than gold."

"well said."

Chen Ming's expression was slightly strange: "But if I remember correctly, I sponsored the gold and iron used to make the knife, right?"

"You took my gold and iron for yourself, and then sold me back?"

"Wu Zhuangyuan was joking."

The bearded man waved his hand: "Although gold and iron are expensive, the skill to forge gold and iron is equally precious. 8000 taels of silver is already a discounted price for the sake of Zhuangyuan Lang."

"Zhuangyuanlang, you don't intend to renege on your debt, do you?"

"A preferential price of 8000 taels?"

The corner of Chen Ming's mouth twitched, but he waved his hand in the end.

Chen Ziling on the side stepped forward and handed over the 8000 taels of bank notes to the other party, with a very unsightly expression on the way.

"The preparations that should be made have been done, and the next thing is to travel far."

Seeing the figure of the old blacksmith leaving, holding a brand new knife in his hand, Chen Ming turned around, looked at the distant sky and muttered to himself.
