After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 37
Knowing that Zhuoyi was out of the city to avoid the limelight, Mengdi understood why he cared about a carload of belongings, so he simply returned it to Zhuanyi. It is indeed a lot of expenses to support a large group of people.

The two became closer, and Meng Di took the opportunity to ask about the situation of the general.

"The general came from the same school as Ou Yezi, and now he forges swords in Huqiu."

"Is this bow made by General Gan?" Meng Di played with the iron bow in his hand.

"I heard that it was cast from the iron hero from the meteorite. The generals have always been concerned about this, saying that if it is used to make a sword, it must be a famous sword in the world, not inferior to Zhanlu and Juque."

"Who built Zhanlu and Juque?"

"Ou Yezi."

"Young Master Yi seems to know a lot about sword casting, can you tell me a little bit?"

"Brother Meng is too polite, why don't you just call me Bo Yu?" Zhuo Yi has a good eye, knowing that Meng Di is not an ordinary person, and he has long since developed a friendship.

"Okay, then ask Bo Yu to explain my doubts for me."

When it comes to casting swords, Dean Yi's eyes shine brightly. The fish intestine sword used by his father to assassinate King Liao of Wu was forged by Ou Yezi, a famous craftsman from the Yue Kingdom. He made it with tin from Chijin Mountain and copper from Ruoye River after being struck by rain and lightning. Made from the essence of heaven and earth.

Among the three kingdoms of Wu, Chu, and Yue, Yue has the highest level of craftsmen, and Chu has the most craftsmen. However, in terms of military strength, Wu Ge should be counted.

Gein Kings of Chu and Yue like to forge swords and are proud of owning peerless swords.Forging a good sword takes several years of hard work and countless manpower. Even with Ou Yezi's ability, there are only a few of them that have been handed down in the world.However, the state of Wu does not make swords, but devotes itself to improving the performance of soldiers' weapons.

"Where is Ou Yezi?"

"Ou Yezi has long since escaped the world and lived in seclusion. His Majesty sent people to Longquan Valley to look for him, but he failed to meet him. In today's world, only one can be called a master."

"Could Bo Yu introduce Master Gan Jiang for me? Firstly, I should thank you face to face for getting this precious bow. Secondly, I would like to ask Master to forge a suitable sword."

Zhuo Yi clapped his palms and laughed: "Brother Meng came here by coincidence. Usually, the king treats generals as treasures, and the foot of Huqiu Mountain is surrounded like an iron bucket. When Fugai led his troops, he drove them away. Now there is no one in Huqiu. Guard, it is a good time to go up the mountain."

Meng Di was overjoyed when he heard the words, he did not expect the trip to be so smooth.

"However, Brother Meng wants to ask generals to forge swords, but it's a bit difficult."

"Oh, why is that?"

"The general refused to accept Ou Yezi's reputation, and always wanted to forge a peerless sword to prove that he is the best craftsman in the world. However, the king only asked him to lead the craftsmen to make ordinary weapons, so he was unhappy and a little unreasonable." Dedicated is a little embarrassed.

In fact, he is more than unreasonable, he is simply eccentric.Zhuan Yi has met King Wu several times, and he has already experienced his bad temper.

"It's okay, let's talk about it when we meet." Mengdi guessed that the general Mo Xie's sword hadn't appeared yet, and at worst, he would use the power of Han to help him forge two swords.After seeing the iron bow in his hand, Mengdi became more confident in smelting steel.

The two walked out of the restaurant talking and laughing, and headed towards Tiger Hill hand in hand. Everyone looked dull, and the style of painting changed a bit quickly.

Tiger Hill is located in the northwest of Gusu City. Because the hill looks like a crouching tiger, it is named after its shape.

Huqiu Mountain is only tens of feet high, but it has the style of "the surface of the hills and valleys on the left of the river".

The two left their entourage at the foot of the mountain and walked along the stone steps.After turning around a mountain ridge, he saw a fluffy-haired man sitting on the ground, holding a gray-black object in his hand and inspecting it carefully.

"Master Ganjiang, Bo Yute is here to visit." Zhuan Yi came behind the man and bowed deeply.

Without raising his head, the general said in a rambling voice, "So it's Mr. Yi, what can I do?"

"Master, do you still remember that precious bow?"

"Bao Gong?" Gan Jiang rolled his eyes and said coldly, "What are you doing with that piece of trash? Mr. Yi is here to humiliate me?"

"Don't dare, Yi came here specially to congratulate the master, Bao Gong must meet the master of the Ming Dynasty." Zhuan Yi said respectfully.

"Boom" Gan Jiang casually threw the things in his hand to the ground, made a dull sound, clapped his hands and stood up, with long hands and feet, different from ordinary people.

"Sir Yi, since your father is considered a hero in the world, I won't argue with you, hurry up..." Before he finished speaking, he froze there.

Holding the iron bow in his hand, Meng Di slowly pulled the string to the full moon, then let go.

"Om..." The bowstring trembled unceasingly, and the lingering sound continued for a long time.

The general looked at it blankly, and after a long time, he said slowly: "It turns out that this bow is not a waste."

At that time, the general was young and vigorous, and made a bet with others that he wanted to make the strongest bow in the world.So I found a few craftsmen who are good at making bows, and used the hardest meteorite iron to make the bow body, and the toughest dragon tendons to make the bowstring.

Go-getters don't know how to shoot, and they think that if they use the best materials, they will naturally make the strongest bows.

The bow was presented to the King of Wu, who was overjoyed and passed it on to the generals. As a result, several generals were injured, and the bow successfully won the title of waste.

Although the go-getter was not punished, he still felt guilty, and even more distressed that the meteorite he had worked so hard to find was wasted.

Zhuanyi took the opportunity to go forward and said: "Brother Meng just now shot down the flying eagle with this bow."

Since ancient times, true craftsmen are the same as chefs. The happiest thing is that the things they make are appreciated, and the most painful thing is that no one cares about them.The general had already regarded this bow as a lifelong shame, but now he realized that it was just a pearl covered in dust, and no one knew it.

He took the iron bow tremblingly, stroked the bow gently, his eyes were bright and gentle, as if he was talking to himself: "So I still won."

Meng Di could fully understand the general's feelings at this time, and said: "This bow was made by the master, please also name this bow."

"Where, where, I can't count this bow made by myself." Gan Jiang waved his hand modestly, "But when it comes to naming, you have to think carefully."

"It's better to call it Sheying, Sheying Bow, what a good name!" Zhuanyi showed off triumphantly.

"Hum..." the general made a heavy nasal sound. Finally, for the sake of bringing good news today, he didn't say anything to reprimand him, but said coldly: "No matter how high an eagle flies, it can only be transformed by insects. How can it be worthy of my treasure?" bow?"

"Uh..." Zhuan Yi was speechless, he said trash just now, but now he has become a precious bow.

The general looked up at the sky, murmured something, and suddenly said: "Yes, when this bow is completed, the sun and the moon will have no light, so it can be called shooting the sun."

Sun bow?Isn't this the bow Hou Yi used?It is said that the ten suns appeared together in ancient times, and the heaven and the earth were scorched. Hou Yi shot down nine suns in a fit of anger. Since then, the climate in the world is suitable and everything can grow.Although Zhuoyi is ignorant, he likes these legends the most.

"Absurd, how can you believe the words of the legend." The general said disdainfully, and then turned to tell Mengdi: "The treasure bow chooses the master, since it can be used by you, I think it will be destined for you. But this bow is too powerful, so use it with caution. Lest there be any peace."

The general didn't know how to shoot, and saw that Meng Di was no bigger than those wrestlers who forcibly opened their bows but was injured. Naturally, he didn't expect that Meng Di had the courage and skill to draw the bow.

Meng Di did not explain, and solemnly agreed, with this bow, he will be even more powerful on the battlefield in the future, of course he must accept the love of a general.

Dedicated to the side snickered: "It is indeed necessary to use it with caution, because there is only one sun left in the sky."
