My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 543: The magic weapon comes out, and the old friend comes to the west

"Good word!"

Among the generals, those who are good at painting will naturally not be too bad at calligraphy. Zhang Fei took a look at the sixteen seal characters and gave a thumbs up: "As good as me."

Guan Yu stroked his beard and nodded, took half a step forward, and covered his third brother behind him, "Such a sharp weapon, we should strike while the iron is hot and let the dragon and bird be born. Only then will we and everyone else be able to sleep tonight."

Lu Bu, Xiang Yu, Ma Chao, and Zhao Yun all nodded and said yes.

They are all warriors, and their love for weapons is no less than that of BMWs and beauties. They have all been trained to do this. If they don't see this magical weapon born with their own eyes, how can they sleep peacefully.

"Then follow what the Lord said and continue to forge until the dragon bird is born!"

Su Chen looked at the Dragon Bird Sword that was beginning to take shape, and wanted to get it in his hands earlier. However, this made the blacksmith over there look bitter, but he did not dare to shirk it, so he had to urge the two apprentices to continue following the process.

Blacksmithing is inherently labor-intensive, especially forging meteorite iron which is infinitely harder than cold iron. From morning to afternoon and dusk, within a few hours, my energy and energy have been exhausted.

Probably seeing the fatigue of the three masters and apprentices, Zhang Fei squeezed forward, grabbed an apprentice with one hand, and threw them behind, "Old man, just tell me how to fight, I will do the rest!"

As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, Lu Bu's voice followed.

In the central hall, when Lu Bu, Xiang Yu and others saw General Jiang Zuo leading him away, they gathered around one by one, as if appreciating a BMW or a beautiful woman, and stretched out their hands to touch the knife.

Seeing Zhang Fei forging iron, Lu Bu also felt a little itchy. Since there were no outsiders anyway, he simply showed his arm, took a similar hammer from the stone platform next to him, and walked to the opposite side of Zhang Fei.

The two apprentices had not been idle before. Taking advantage of the blacksmithing time, they had already gone to the room to fix the handle and swallowing.

"In addition, the blacksmith also has two of his apprentices. I want to reward them. I will record them in the supervisor's merit book and reward them together after the end of the year!"

The wooden chair was directly split into pieces by the air wave and flew out.

As he said this, Su Chen caressed the blade of the sword with some fondness. With this comparison, Xia Wang's sword seemed to have lost its sharpness.

The originally dark blade now looked extremely cold and sharp.

There was a greasy feeling on the edge. Thinking about it carefully, Su Chen couldn't help but laugh. He knew in his heart that the blacksmith must have specially waxed the knife to make it shine. After all, the knife was too dull.

When the blacksmith finished polishing the sword and inlaid it on the hilt, he immediately decorated it. He also found a wooden box for his own heirloom sword and put it in. After covering it with red silk, he and his two disciples hurriedly presented it to the sword. Son of Heaven.

They are all world-famous generals who have been killed among tens of millions of people on the battlefield. Their control of strength is not bad. With the beating, the blacksmith corrects it from the side, and the prototype becomes more prominent.

Clang!
Su Chen held the handle of the knife and pulled it out, and a black flash suddenly came into view. It was a five-foot-nine-inch sword, similar to the Huanshou Sword, but much larger than the Huanshou Sword.

"Make a new scabbard out of purple gold wood and deliver it to the palace tomorrow to Duke Zheng."

Su Chen raised the Dragon Sparrow Sword and stroked it across the head. It was a swallow mouth carved in the shape of a dragon, holding the blade. It looked very majestic at first glance.

It went back and forth, until it was put into the furnace again, and then pulled out, scorched, forged, and cut... At midnight, when Zheng He came over to urge Su Chen to return to the palace, the entire blade was ready.

"Good knife!"

The middle of the blade is flat and convex, with the sixteen seal characters engraved on it. During forging, snowflake patterns were made all over the blade.

"Let the two generals forge it, and you can guide them."

The blacksmith looked at Su Chen subconsciously.

"One represents kingship, and the other represents domineering!" Su Chen closed his eyes and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, "Does this count as the ultimate swordsmanship?"

As he spoke, Zhang Fei took off his shirt, revealing his chest covered with black hair and a bare thick arm. He took the iron pliers and clamped the Longque knife blank to the anvil to fix it, and then took the short-handled square knife from the blacksmith's hand. hammer.

However, Su Chen didn't object to this matter. The appearance of the Dragon Bird Sword suited him very well.

Zhao Yun saw this and came over with a smile. He and Ma Chao both paid great attention to their appearance. Naturally, they did not take off their shirts or expose their arms. They just took the hammer. Based on the intensity of the blow and the alternating trajectory observed just now, he and Ma Chao Get started quickly.

"Let some family try it too!"

For a moment, there was all the sound of metal banging... One hammer fell, the other hammer was raised, and they struck back and forth alternately. When the meteorite iron completely cooled, the two apprentices hurried forward and knocked the meteorite iron again. Send it to the furnace for burning.

"Don't wait for tomorrow, start preparing tonight."

"Your Majesty, this..."

Su Chen looked closely and saw that the snowflake patterns on the blade seemed chaotic, but they looked like long, intertwining snakes. Near the hilt of the sword, a dragon bird was carved inside the ring.

Not long after, on the anvil in front of the big stove, two square hammers, one on the left and one on the right, went up and down in the hands of Zhang Fei and Lu Bu, hitting the long meteorite iron, causing sparks to fly everywhere.

Good guys, teaching two famous generals how to forge iron, the blacksmiths are fighting with each other, but they feel secretly happy in their hearts. If they tell this later, they will be able to brag about it for the rest of their lives.

The two of them were very tired at this time. This was completely different from killing the enemy on the battlefield. Not to mention the exertion of force. They repeated the same action thousands of times, and the tempers of the two of them almost burst out of depression.

"Three, let Meng Qi and I try it!"

However, Xia Wangjian has been with him for many years. That sword also symbolizes his journey from Xia Wang to Xia Emperor. Countless people know that Xia Wangjian represents the majesty of the emperor.

Su Chen and the generals went to the middle hall to rest and have a midnight snack. When they saw the long box held by two apprentices, Su Chen put down the butter cake in his hand, went over to open the lid of the box, and took out the weapon from the scabbard inside.

"Is this done?"

The hilt of the sword is also made based on the Xia Wangjian. It is one foot long and can be used with one or both hands.

When the sky darkened and the meteorite iron burned red, he pulled it out again and let Zhang Fei and Lu Bu continue. It was not until an hour later that the long blade gradually changed in shape.

The whole body is dark and dark, but the edge is as bright as white snow.

If it weren't for the fact that Su Chen was the emperor, he would have already taken the weapon in his hands and played with it by now.

"If you generals like it, starting tomorrow, I will do my best to let them dig out meteorites and supervise the construction of your weapons!"

Looking at the sixteen seal characters on the blade, he immediately tightened the handle of the blade and swung it away violently. The thick blade wiped the air, making a whistling sound of wind. He turned his feet and the dragon bird flew from top to bottom in an instant. After slashing down, before touching the chair next to him, everyone heard a snap.

This time, even Guan Yu didn't stand up to persuade him. From the fact that he kept staring at the Daxia Dragon Bird in Su Chen's hand, it can be seen that Guan Yunchang, who is so powerful in China, has been forged by meteorite iron with strange characteristics. What does the Qinglong knife look like in your hand?

"Then you generals will supervise on your own. It's already late at night. If you don't go back, you won't be able to get in later." Su Chen said with a smile. He took the Dragon Bird Sword with satisfaction and pulled Dian Wei and Xu Chu who were a little reluctant to leave. Walking back, he coaxed the two giant men like coaxing children: "Don't worry, dig it out, I will supervise the making of your weapons, how can I miss you."

Dian Wei and Xu Chu then showed what they thought were "honest" smiles, which made the craftsmen who were watching the night feel frightened. They lowered their faces from a distance and did not dare to raise them.

Early the next morning, Su Chen went to court wearing the Dragon Bird Sword. As soon as he entered the court, sure enough, none of Lu Bu, Xiang Yu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Ma Chao came. The only one who came, Zhao Yun, looked listless and stood behind him from time to time. The two yawns made other Chinese civil and military officials look suspicious.

In the following days, Su Chen took the Dragon Bird Sword wherever he went to and from court. He even brought it with him when he went to visit Wu Zixun who had just recovered from a serious illness. Looking at Su Chen in military uniform, Wu Zixun was almost shocked by this. Relapse.

You must know that people who the emperor brings weapons to visit rarely end well, such as the former Minister of War, Qin Tongwen.

Now that Su Chen was in a good mood, he didn't care about Wu Zixun's fright. As the latter talked, he learned that the sword on the emperor's waist was made of a meteorite from outside the sky. After knowing the reason, the stone in his heart fell calmly.

I sat in Wu Zixun's house until almost noon and then came out. As soon as I returned to the palace, I was going to go to the ancestral temple to show off to the Chinese emperors.

From a distance, he met Li Xuanba who was looking around. The moment he saw Su Chen, he ran like a chariot and rushed over, if Dian Wei hadn't blocked him in front.

Li Xuanba, who couldn't stop the car, probably bumped into Su Chen. "Li Xuanba, what are you doing?!"

Dian Wei almost drew his halberd and struck him. He rubbed the painful shoulder and roared at Li Xuanba, who was also rubbing his forehead.

"Humph!"

Li Xuanba lowered his hands, snorted angrily like a child, crossed his hands on his chest, and turned his head to one side.

"Your Majesty has good things and you don't even tell me!"

Su Chen asked him knowingly: "What good thing?"

"Hmph, of course it's a meteorite from the sky!" Li Xuanba lowered his hand, turned his head and gestured twice: "General Zhao told us!"

"This Zhao Zilong, I thought he had a tight mouth, but I didn't expect it to leak!" Dian Wei groaned and twisted his shoulders.

He knew in his heart why Su Chen wanted Lu Bu and the others to forge weapons from meteorite iron first. After all, there were so many people. If they were to build it together, the blacksmiths would be very tired in the workshop, and almost all their energy would be spent on it. Forging, and... it also requires human sacrifice.

In the past few years, the world has been peaceful. Local management is supervised by the Embroidery Department and the Police Factory. Public security and people's livelihood management are all considered clean. How can there be so many death row prisoners used for human sacrifice.

By then, one weapon will be built, but the other one has not yet started. Doesn't this make people feel uncomfortable?

So there is no other way to hide them, so we have to come one by one first.

Especially for Li Xuanba, his pair of drum-beating, urn-golden hammers probably used meteorite iron several times that of the Qinglong Sword. A pair of iron knots was time-consuming and labor-intensive, so he naturally left it to the end.

"Xuanba."

Li Shimin from the ancestral temple also hurried over to persuade. At the same time, he also complained about Su Chen. After all, in terms of relationship, they were brothers from the same mother.

Naturally, Su Chen didn't take the complaints to heart, so he had no choice but to tell Li Xuanba the whole story of his concerns. After these few years, his temper was no longer the same as when he first came here, and his cognition had also improved a lot.

But after all, some habits are not so easy to change.

After having a pleasant talk, Su Chen took Li Xuanba with him to visit the craftsmen's workshops in the northern suburbs.

Looking at the progress of Lu Bu and others' weapon forging, as a result, when they went there, they saw all the Chinese civil and military personnel here. The craftsman general was holding a pamphlet with sweat on his back. With a smile on his face, he quickly wrote down each one of them eloquently. descriptions of generals.

"Qin's mace should remain the same length, but should be thicker, and the corners should be sharper. By the way, I want a pair!"

Yuchi Gong added next to him: "My iron whip is very simple, one size bigger than Qin Shubao's mace."

"Jing...just hit me with a knife!"

"There is no need for a sword. Yuan needs a strong bow that can draw ten miles!"

"The bright crane fan was lost recently, and I just wanted to make a fan. Meteor iron is the best bone..."

"Oh, what the Prime Minister said, it seems that the sword Xu often wore a few days ago can't be found."

"My gentian..."

"Hey...I want a wine gourd made of meteorite..."

"The tiger head is pure gold..."

Recording the weapons one by one, the busy craftsman general was exhausted, so he had no choice but to make the order, and the great commander also came to help record the needs of the generals.

Naturally, Dian Wei and Xu Chu couldn't hold it any longer. They raised their hands towards Su Chen and joined in. Li Xuanba shouted: "And I, my drum, urn and golden hammer will..."

Before he could finish speaking, the civil and military personnel surrounding the circle all turned back: "You are last!"

At this time, Pei Min, who had been hiding in the dark, jumped out, came to Su Chen with a serious look and raised his hands.

Generally speaking, if Pei Min can show up, there must be something important to report.

"What happened?" Su Chen was prepared and asked with a frown.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty..."

Pei Min moved his mouth towards the crowd over there, "I also want to go there."

"Go, go!" Su Chen waved his hand with a smile and watched Pei Min squeeze in. For such a scene, if an ordinary emperor saw the civil and military officials of the dynasty like this, he would probably jump in anger and curse. .

But in Su Chen's eyes, this was a scene that made him feel warm.

In the next month, the craftsman's workshop had to suspend the production of military weapons in the past. Thousands of blacksmiths were digging, smelting, and forging for days.

The Qinglong Yanyue Sword, Fangtian Painted Halberd, Gentian Bright Silver Spear, Tiger Head Zhanjin Spear, Meteor Iron Crane Fan, Water Mill Meteor Whip... and many other black weapons were forged.

The generals in the army who came after hearing the news took their weapons in the courtyard, and started to act like tigers and tigers in the courtyard. They originally had the terrifying characteristics, but when the strong wind stirred them up, they were still watching around them before. The blacksmiths and apprentices all turned blue in the face and purple in the lips, and they rushed outside to vomit.

This is because they are strong and strong. If they are weak, such as Wu Zixun, who also came to join in the fun, he was carried away by the soldiers after a few glances and hurried back to the city to find a doctor.

In the end, only Li Xuanba's pair of drums, urns, and golden hammers were forged at the end of this month. His weapons alone required more than 200 civilian workers and blacksmiths to dig and forge them, and they were very busy.

It was not until October that Li Xuanba got this pair of extremely heavy weapons. A single hammer weighed 1,500 kilograms. In order to test it, Su Chen asked Dian Wei to give him a hammer.

General Dian Wei pulled out the two halberds from his back and placed them on his chest. He was then sent flying by the whistling hammer, which hit the wall of the craftsman's courtyard with a loud bang. The entire wall was damaged. Smashed to pieces.

Later, Xiang Yu also wanted to try to pick it up, but nothing happened... The other wall of the craftsman's courtyard, together with a stove, were all damaged.

These are still fierce men like Xiang Yu and Dian Wei. If they were replaced by Le Jin, Xiahou Dun, and Xu Huang, they would probably be knocked back to the world with one hammer...

While they were busy testing weapons here, the envoys from the Western Regions who met with the Emperor of Great Xia returned to their respective countries with imperial edicts.

The Queen of Yelan Kingdom listened to Bai Nani's story and felt the murderous intention from the emperor of Xia Kingdom in the east. At the same time, she also knew that she and the other two families would definitely not be able to stop the establishment of the Western Region Protectorate.

From now on, the Western Regions will all speak Chinese language, so in ten or twenty years, the surname here will probably be changed to Su.

Killing with such a soft knife will never see blood.

……

At the same moment when the Queen of Yelan Kingdom was thinking, a figure was walking in panic in a place called Tianfengling in the southern section of the Snow Mountains west of the Middle Road of the Western Region.

The climate of the plateau made him a little breathless. When he persisted in walking through the forest, the golden color of the Western Region came into view.

Perhaps due to the long trek, my physical strength has reached its limit. The moment I saw the scenery outside, I fell directly to the ground.

Before the man fell unconscious, he vaguely felt someone approaching.

He murmured vaguely in Chinese language.

"...help me...to summon the King of Yanxia...if there is any difficulty..."
