"I know today that there really is such a good sword in this world!"

Half an hour later, when the showers began to rest, Wang Sunqi, Ji Qiao, Yang Tongrong and other senior staff gathered together. When Zhao Wuxi pulled out the Shaoyu (ju) sword and displayed it, the three of them all let out a sigh of admiration.

On the ground, Yang Tongrong's standard saber used for experimentation has been easily cut into two pieces. He is not a pity, but just looks at the sharp Shaoyu sword.

Zhao Wuxi was also a little excited, he said: "According to what my maid, Wei, said, this is indeed the sword Shaojiao worn by Shen Gongwuchen, three of them are knowledgeable, or good at swordsmanship, or well-versed in classics, you know this How much is the sword worth?"

Although the maid Wei claimed that this sword was imitated by Ji Zi's hanging sword, it was offered to Wu Xie to repay the life-saving grace. But Zhao Wuxi still felt that something was wrong, so it would be better to ask the value of this sword first, because he had a good idea in his heart.

Ji Qiao, who is proficient in arithmetic and calculation, is of course the most qualified to answer this question, but when he heard Zhao Wuxi asking about the value of this sword, he seemed to have heard a joke.

"Gentleman, Qiao has also heard rumors about Wuchen's sword. This sword was made by a Yue swordsman when he traveled to Wu State as a traveler from Jin State. Although the craftsman did not leave his name, his nephew But he is famous all over the world, does a gentleman know who he is?"

Zhao Wuxi pondered: "Wu Yue swordsmith... Could it be the famous Ou Yezi?"

"Exactly! Ten years ago, Ou Yezi cast a sword for King Yunchang of Yue. He chiseled a mountain of red cumin, and broke it out of tin; dried up a stream like Ye, and produced copper. It is said that a rain division came to sweep and sprinkle before casting, Lei Gong gave his support; during the casting process, there was a dragon coming out of the abyss to hold the furnace for him, and the Emperor of Heaven came to help him load the charcoal!"

Everyone clicked their tongues: "What Mr. said is too exaggerated. How is this possible."

Ji Qiao stroked his beard and smiled: "The process may be exaggerated, but the precious and sharp swords cast are not exaggerated in the slightest! Among the gods in the world, the first is Zhanlu; the second is Chunjun; the third is Shengxie; the fourth is Yuchang; and the fifth is Juque!"

Zhao Wuxi continued: "I only know about fish intestines. It is rumored that it was found by Wu Gongziguang and Wu Zixu ten years ago and gave it to the assassin Zhuan Chu. Zhuan Chu hid this sword in the belly of the fried fish, as a chance to offer the fish. , assassinated King Liao of Wu, and penetrated three layers of thick copper armor on the spot, and came out through the chest, showing its sharpness."

Yang Tongrong, who is proficient in swordsmanship and has a little knowledge of Wu Yue's famous swords, added: "It is said that Zhanlu is now in Chu, Shengxie and Yuchang are in Wu, Juque is in Yue, and Chunjun is missing."

"What does what Mr. Ji said have to do with this Shaojiao? Could it be compared to the above five swords?"

"Overseas Chinese only know the rumors of the country and the wild, but do not know the skill of swordsmanship, so I should ask the sheep tongue Sima to solve the confusion for the gentleman."

When it comes to what he is good at, Yang Tong, who usually doesn't talk much, does not give up, he replied: "The gentleman said it is right, Ou Yezi's skills were taught by his uncle, and his uncle was the one who forged this sword. , the craftsmanship and materials used are no different from Ou Yezi!"

"Look, gentleman, the middle ridge and two slaves of this sword are inlaid and cast with different compositions of gold (the pre-Qin people's name for bronze). The middle ridge contains low tin to ensure the toughness of the sword; The tin content of the front part is higher, which ensures the killing of the sword."

"When casting, first cast the sword body, and then cast the sword grid, hilt and sword head on the basis of the sword body, and leave a groove in the middle to cast separately, and then embed it. Therefore, from the ridge of the sword to the sword Since, due to the difference of materials, it shows obvious different colors, this skill is not for ordinary people to cast, and it takes dozens of days of tempering before you can get a good sword."

Zhao Wuxie didn't know much about smelting and other things in his past life and this life. He only knew a little bit about it. He always regretted this, because it would be a beautiful thing if it could speed up the improvement of iron tools. Now it seems that we can only rely on the skilled craftsmen of this era, because it is said that Ou Yezi started forging iron swords more than ten years ago!

As for the bronze ware, the bronze wares and bronze soldiers of the late Spring and Autumn Period are already at their peak in China and even the whole world. Do you want to improve them? easier said than done. It is very difficult for later generations to use the most advanced technology to restore a sword of Yue Wang Goujian.

At this moment, he nodded as if taught: "So, this sword can indeed be compared with the famous swords in the world such as Yuchang and Juque."

And his initial question was finally answered from Ji Qiao.

"The gentleman does not know that now, the mountain of Chijin, where the beautiful tin is collected, has been closed, and the Ruoye River where the beautiful copper is collected is unfathomable, and no one dares to explore it again. In addition, Ou Yezi is dead, and no one can inherit it. Craftsmanship, even if someone spends a lot of money on the city, and the jade runs up the river, there is still a price and no market, and this sword cannot be obtained."

"It may be a bit exaggerated to say that it is a priceless treasure, but the servants know that the giant sword was once exchanged by the commander of the Chu State, Yin Yong, with two townships, a thousand horses, and two cities with a thousand households. It was categorically rejected by the King of Yue. He said that these things are indescribable compared to Juque! A gentleman's Shaoyu sword should be almost the same."

Zhao Wuxi smiled bitterly in his heart, yes, this gift is really too precious. At least, now even if he sells Chengyi, and then takes the entire lower palace, it is enough to buy a half-handed sword. This kind of favor is really too big.

However, his mind moved slightly, and he asked again, "How does this sword compare to Fan's three swords, Yulong, Liu Gong, and Xiezhi?"

The three of them knew that their lord was still brooding about the fact that the sword was cut off in a private fight in the Pan Palace last time.

Yang Tongrong replied truthfully: "When the servants were learning swords, I heard a saying that the sword of Wu Yue is better if it moves to other places. That is to say, after leaving Wu Yue, although the craftsmanship is the same, the craftsman casts it. The quality of the sword is greatly reduced."

"The Shaoyu sword was forged by Ou Yezi's uncle in Wudi; and Fan's three swords were made by a few second-rate swordsmiths from Wuyue and went north to Jindi~www.wuxiahere.com~ Perhaps it has been more time since then. Short, maybe more gorgeous, but in terms of inner quality, compared to Shaojiao, it’s not worth mentioning!”

Zhao Wuxi breathed a sigh of relief. Although the ownership of the Shaoyao Sword was not fully owned by him, he could finally wear the world's famous sword. This is the lifelong wish of every martial man in the Spring and Autumn Period!

"No wonder, the sword body and inscription have been buried deep for several years, without rust and soil, just like a new work. Wu Zhong's famous sword, which came back from the ground, is as clear as autumn water, and the blade is hidden by thunder, and it has been circulated to this day."

When Ji Qiao and Yang Tongrong heard the words, they bowed their hands together to congratulate Zhao Wuxi: "Congratulations to the gentleman for winning this magic weapon!"

Wu Xie waved his hands humbly and said, "That's a bad word, this sword is not mine, but something of Wu Chen's descendants, maid Wei and Qi Tong Ao, and it should be handed down from generation to generation for their clan, I just keep it for them. !"

He said it very seriously, causing Yang Tongrong and Ji Qiao to look at each other, while Wang Sunqi showed a look of approval because Zhao Wuxi was facing Baojian, but still did not show greed.

"So, the concubine that the burial concubine saved half a year ago is actually the descendant of Wu Chen, of course, the descendant of Xia Ji..."

Wang Sunqi didn't say a word just now. It turned out that this was what he was worried about.

Everyone present, except for Zhao Wuxi, fell silent. They all remembered the prophecy and curse about Xia Ji that came from the mouth of the Wuchen...
