Wang Wu, who had been waiting outside, was really anxious at this time. In fact, he was really afraid that something would happen to Li Xiaoman. Although Xu Huan and his son had always hoped that Li Xiaoman would die, but if Li Xiaoman did it in person,
Something happened under the guard, and his little life was over. He couldn't sit still anymore, so he stepped forward to knock on the door, and he was also ready to break in.
There is a corridor to go from the front door to Moye Hall. Wang Wu saw an iron door through the corridor. He could vaguely feel that the air near the iron door was much higher than in other places.
Wang Wu was just a guard and could not be compared with Li Xiaoman's status, so he did not dare to disturb the forger's work of forging weapons. He had to stop at the door and politely shouted first as a notification. Wang Wu
I plan to say no three times, but the etiquette has expired. It will not be considered rude to rush in when the time comes.
"come in."
Li Xiaoman's voice came from inside.
Wang Wu pushed open the door and walked in. As soon as he entered Moye Hall, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
There are two hardwood tables in front of a huge furnace. The owner Li Xiaoman and a middle-aged man are drinking tea instead of wine, chatting and laughing happily. The two are quite a generation apart in age, but the middle-aged man's words and deeds are as clear as every word.
He was all respectful and cautious, and he looked like a famous forger in Qinglong Town, a veritable great forger, but now, Wang Wu looked at him like a child.
Absolutely right, just like a child who listens to teachings with an open mind.
Li Xiaoman, who was supposed to be a junior, talked about everything without any restraint in front of the great forger.
"Wang Wu, are you okay?" Li Xiaoman put down the wine glass in his hand and turned around to ask Wang Wu who came in.
"It's okay." Wang Wu came to his senses and replied quickly: "My subordinates saw that the young master has not come out for a long time, so they were a little worried, so they came in to take a look."
"Oh, I did a good job as a guard, but I am very good. I had a great time drinking and chatting with Uncle Zhao." Li Xiaoman said with a smile on his face.
"Alas, I don't dare to be called uncle." Zhao Wuxi said with shame. He was indeed older than him, but in terms of understanding and experience in forging weapons, he found that he was completely inferior to this young master whom he had never looked down on before. Somewhat
The concept of forging often makes his eyes light up and he has enlightenment. When it comes to forging weapons, Zhao Wuxi at least considers himself a junior.
"The younger generation should respect their elders. This is a rule left over from ancient times. This uncle should be called uncle," Li Xiaoman said.
"The young master treats Zhao so politely, Zhao really... Hey, if I have ever been sorry to Mr. Li in the past, please forgive me." Zhao Wuxi was ashamed, and now he had a different impression of Li Xiaoman.
A 180-degree change, it seems that those rumors in Qingcheng Town cannot be believed.
Li Xiaoman had the Star Boundary Stone in his pocket. He knew that it was getting late and he had to practice the Seven-Star Cudgel when he went back. He would come back to discuss the casting process with him later when he had time, so he stood up and left.
Zhao Wu was still overjoyed. When he saw that Li Xiaoman was about to leave, he felt a little bit reluctant to leave. However, he did not want to embarrass Li Xiaoman. He looked down on others so much at first, so he didn't know what kind of image he would have in the other person's mind? Zhao
The more Wu Xi thought about it, the more he felt that he should not embarrass others anymore, so he stood up and said: "Today, if it weren't for Master Li, otherwise I, Zhao, would still be the same as before and would not be able to make a breakthrough. What should Master Li do if I need to do this?"
Yes, you can just ask, I am willing to serve at any time."
"I may come here often in the future. I hope Uncle Zhao's disciples will come in for me." Li Xiaoman joked.
Zhao Wuxi was furious: "Young Master Li, don't worry. I will teach those bastards a lesson later. If anyone dares to be disrespectful to Young Master Li, I, Zhao, will tell him to get out immediately."
Li Xiaoman quickly replied: "It's just a joke, Uncle Zhao, don't take it seriously."
The three of them left Moxie Hall and came to the front hall of the store. When the waiter who was greeting the customers saw Li Xiaoman coming out, he subconsciously said something sarcastic: "Is Mr. Li okay? Did he pass out in Moxie Hall? I told you earlier.
It's a place that ordinary people can't go past you..."
"Asshole, who told you to talk to Master Li in this tone?" Zhao Wuxi, who came out later, saw his little boy mocking Li Xiaoman and scolded him repeatedly.
Wang Wu on the side saw the young man laughing at the young master, and was about to get angry when he saw Zhao Wuxi coming out with a heavy expression, knowing that there was something good to watch. Sure enough, Zhao Wuxi scolded, making several apprentices tremble, and they were all dumbfounded.
They were all muttering: What happened to Master today? How could he speak for a loser?
"Why don't you come over quickly and apologize to Master Li?"
The little boy quickly ran over and apologized to Li Xiaoman.
"From now on, Master Li will be the VIP of our Zhao's shop. When you see him, you see me. Do you understand?" Zhao Wuxi scolded, fearing that the few clerks would offend Li Xiaoman and make him angry and stop coming again.
The three or two apprentices in the shop were all dumbfounded. It took them a while to finally wake up and nodded hurriedly. In fact, they were still aggrieved and thought to themselves: This master is really weird today. Usually, even when Mr. Chen of the Chen family comes to visit, he doesn't flatter so much.
Ah, even though Li Xiaoman is the son of the Generalissimo, everyone knows that he is just an abandoned son and has no use value at all.
"Uncle Zhao, you really don't have to be like this. You guys are not sensible, just be more careful in the future." Li Xiaoman didn't really want to offend these little people: "And Uncle Zhao, don't call me Mr. Li, because Mr. Li is short."
, if you like, just call me Xiao Li."
"How can this be done?" Zhao Wuxi replied.
"It's nothing, that's settled."
"That's...ok! I listen to Master Li...ah, no, Xiao Li's." As soon as Zhao Wuxi finished speaking, the two of them burst into laughter. Zhao Wuxi was also an open-minded person.
Wang Wu looked at the scene in front of him and found it very incredible. How could Li Xiaoman and He De have allowed a famous forger to be so groveling to him? Even the most powerful Mr. Chen in the town would probably rarely receive such treatment.
.
The two of them had a feeling that they had just met each other late, and they talked for a long time in the store.
At this time, a cold wind blew in from the front door, accompanied by a sweet voice like a silver bell.
"Is the foundry here?"
Everyone turned their attention to the girl.
What I saw coming in was a slim and beautiful girl, wearing a long skirt as white as snow. The long skirt was also covered with a white gauze shawl, and the green silk was tied behind her head. You see, she bent her slender waist and smiled slightly.
Stepping forward, her bright wrists are draped over the gauze, her eyes are like grapes, her mouth contains vermilion, and her every frown and smile is playful and generous.
She is a delightful girl.
"That's it." Zhao Wuxi quickly stepped forward and replied.
The visitor was not from Qingcheng Town, but she was well-dressed and behaved in an elegant manner, unlike a girl from an ordinary family. Zhao Wuxi did not dare to offend the customer and responded politely.
"Oh, I heard that you are the best caster in Qingcheng Town?" The girl's steps were very light, like a dancing butterfly.
A burst of tangy fragrance penetrated Li Xiaoman's heart and spleen.
"I have something here, master, can you help me repair it?" The girl picked up a sword from her waist. It turned out to be a small sword. A sword connoisseur would know at a glance that this sword is extremely valuable. It is made of the hard-to-collect blue iron stone.
The hilt of the sword was tied with a red knot, which seemed to reflect the girl's longing for her sweetheart. However, there was a deep scar on the sword, which seemed to be about to break. It was a pity.
Zhao Wuxi took it and looked at it carefully and asked: "Girl, where did you get this sword?"
The girl did not hide anything and replied: "This sword is called 'Qingsi'. It was given by a merchant in Chang'an. It was broken due to a small accident. It was quite annoying, so I wanted to find someone to repair it."
"This sword is extremely valuable. I'm sorry that I can't do anything about it." Zhao Wuxi shook his head and returned the sword. He didn't know anything about the sword at all, and naturally there was no way to repair it. "Girl, you might as well go to Mingyang Sword Making Villa outside Qingcheng Town to try it out."
try."
"I just came here from there, and the foundry master at Mingyang Villa tried various methods but couldn't repair it."
"There's no way to repair the 'Nameless Fire of Hell' in Mingyang Sword Villa?" Zhao Wuxi showed a very surprised expression. Mingyang Sword Villa is not as good as Zhao's Foundry in terms of technology and capital, but
There is a sign there, which is the 'Hell's Nameless Fire'; this is the strongest fire that can be burned in the entire Tang Dynasty Foundry Villa. If this fire cannot be repaired, no one can.
"Is it really impossible to fix it?" The girl sighed repeatedly.
Li Xiaoman was about to leave when he suddenly saw the girl looking so sad. He stepped forward and said, "In fact, it can be repaired, but they didn't use the right method."
"ah?"
The girl turned around and stared at Li Xiaoman in surprise.
She originally thought that Li Xiaoman was just a customer in the shop and didn't notice it at all. Now when she heard what he said, she couldn't help but feel happy: "If you can help me repair it as good as ever, I will reward you heavily."
"
Zhao Wuxi felt funny in his heart, he was the young master of the Marshal's Mansion, how could he still lack the world's treasures?
However, when he heard Li Xiaoman say that there was a way to repair it, his curiosity was aroused. In his opinion, this "green silk" dagger should be a treasure left over from ancient times, and it was not something that some junior casters said could be repaired.
Repaired, does this Master Li still have such ability?
"This sword is called 'Qingsi', and it should have a sister sword named 'Cangmang'." Li Xiaoman said.
"Master Li, I really admire you. I thought other than me, I didn't expect anyone else to know the origin of this sword. I really admire Zhao!" As soon as Zhao Wuxi heard Li Xiaoman say 'Cang Mang'; these two
Words, my heart trembled, this abandoned young man is really not simple. You must know that there are no more than ten people in the entire dynasty who know the origin of this sword, and one of them is Zhao Wuxi, so he did not dare to take this business rashly.
The girl's cute little mouth opened wide, and she turned her gaze to Zhao Wuxi, wanting to confirm whether what Li Xiaoman said was true or false.
Zhao Wuxi nodded. Obviously Li Xiaoman's ability to repair weapons was beyond his experience as a junior forger. In addition, he had also seen Li Xiaoman's casting skills just now. He believed that Li Xiaoman would be able to repair it. (To be continued)
