Start with a photographic memory and build a memory palace

Chapter 149 Mace

……

Sun rise.

There was a knock on the door.

Cheng Chumo's voice came from outside.

"Come in!" Wu Wen responded.

The door was gently pushed open and Cheng Chumo walked in.

Seeing a pregnant woman sleeping on the floor inside the house, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and then he glanced at Wu Wen secretly.

Suddenly there was a woman in the room, and she was a pregnant woman, and he couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts in his mind.

"What's that look in your eyes?" Wu Wen turned around and asked.

Cheng Chumo smiled awkwardly and asked, "Who is this woman?"

"He was being hunted, so he fled to the palace and hid with me."

Wu Wen briefly explained, and then ordered:

"You arrange to secretly send her out of Dingxiang and place her in Yanmen Pass."

After a pause, Wu Wen added: "This person's situation is a bit special. Don't let others know about her existence. Everything must be done in secret."

Hearing this, Cheng Chumo looked at the woman lying on the ground again, and then obeyed the order and said, "Yes!"

Afterwards, Cheng Chumo left.

Not long after, a sedan chair arrived outside the door.

Wu Wen woke the sleeping woman.

As soon as he opened his eyes and saw Wu Wen, he was so scared that he immediately moved back, then calmed down.

“I have temporarily dealt with the people who chased you last night, but I’m afraid they won’t let you go.

So I plan to secretly transfer you to the Tang Dynasty, so that your safety can be guaranteed." Wu Wen said.

"If you agree, follow my subordinates and leave secretly now; if you disagree, you can leave now, and I will not stop you."

After listening to Wu Wen's words, she thought for a while and asked, "I believe you, what's your name?"

"Wu Wen." Wu Wen replied.

The other person muttered something softly, then stood up, left the house and got into the sedan chair.

Afterwards, under the leadership of Cheng Chumo, she first left the palace, then got on a carriage to leave Dingxiang City, and was escorted to Yanmen Pass by a team of guards.

Let's deal with this woman's issue for now.

Wu Wen should just mind his own business.

Take out the dagger that was broken in the battle last night.

Recalling the battle last night.

In addition to forging a new sword for self-defense, he also needed to prepare a weapon.

This weapon is more powerful than a sword.

The first weapon Wu Wen thought of was the heavy sword, but considering that the heavy sword was not convenient to carry, he turned to another weapon: the mace.

It is long but has no blade, is heavy and has the ability to break metal.

Anyone who can use a mace as a weapon can smash someone to death even through armor.

If Wu Wen used the mace as a weapon, not to mention that the scales on his body were as hard as shells, even if he was an iron man, he would be able to smash them with one blow.

So Wu Wen sent someone to call Ashina Simo over.

He handed him the dagger and a blueprint for a mace.

"Reforge my sword, and then make me a mace like this." Wu Wen ordered.

Ashina Simo took the dagger and the blueprint and left immediately.

—

outside the palace.

A residence.

This was exactly where Wu Wen interrogated the two pursuers last night.

At this time, their companions had gathered here.

Surrounding their bodies, everyone had no expression on their faces.

They had always acted cautiously, trying to avoid trouble whenever possible, but two people died here overnight, which could only mean one thing.

"It seems that someone is meddling in our affairs again." One of them said calmly. They were already used to people interfering in their operations.

After all, there are always some chivalrous people in this world who will always lend a helping hand when they encounter women who are cruelly abused.

When faced with such a situation, their response is always simple and direct: get rid of the nosy person.

Send someone to report to the commander.

However, when this man arrived at the camp, he found that the commander and his men were all dead.

He instantly realized the seriousness of the matter and quickly returned to his residence to report the matter to his companions.

"The commander is dead. It seems that the person we are facing this time is quite troublesome." One person said in a deep voice.

"Pass the message back quickly and let the general decide." Another person said immediately.

—

The next day.

Wu Wen was practicing in the house.

Ashina Simo came with a reforged dagger, a specially shaped mace, and a cylindrical tool.

"So fast!"

Wu Wen looked up at the three things he brought.

I was surprised that the sword and mace were made in just one day. This speed was too fast.

Suddenly, he said with a heavy face: "Is this what you want to give me?"

Ashina Simo, who did not realize the seriousness of the situation, smiled and said, "Yes, the dagger, the iron mace, and the tools you asked me to find a craftsman to make."

Wu Wen stood up, took the reforged dagger, held the hilt with one hand, and with the other hand stretched out a finger and lightly flicked the sword.

All that could be heard was the dull and chaotic sound of swords.

"What is this? A kitchen knife?"

Wu Wen questioned him with a dagger in hand.

As he spoke, he swung the dagger in his hand and knocked it on the stone table beside him, and the sword broke instantly.

He picked up the iron mace again and used the broken dagger in his hand to chop the mace hard, cutting the iron mace in half in an instant.

"How could this be?"

Seeing this, Ashina Simo immediately said in panic: "I am sure that the best blacksmith in the city was found to make it..."

"That's enough!" Wu Wen interrupted his explanation, "You can go down."

Hearing this, Ashina Simo left anxiously.

Looking at the broken sword and mace in his hands, Wu Wen sighed and shook his head.

I thought to myself that my expectations were too high.

There are no skilled craftsmen in Dingxiang City.

The weapons made by the blacksmiths here are suitable for ordinary people.

Compared with the famous craftsmen in the Chang'an Palace, they are far inferior.

In this regard, Wu Wen couldn't help but miss Han Laosan of the Shaofu Supervisor.

If he were here, he would definitely be satisfied with what he created.

"It seems that I have to do it myself to have enough food and clothing."

Wu Wen picked up the broken sword and mace and left the room.

Seeing him come out, Ashina Simo immediately came forward to greet him.

"Take me to the blacksmith shop." Wu Wen ordered.

Upon hearing this, Ashina Simo immediately led the way.

After leaving the palace and walking down a street, the two stopped in front of a blacksmith shop.

This blacksmith shop is quite large. There are four furnaces in front of the door alone, and a group of shirtless blacksmiths are working hard with the sound of clanging.

Seeing Ashina Simo coming, a bald blacksmith immediately put down his hammer, left the furnace, walked up to him with a smile, and said enthusiastically: "Khan, what else do you want to make?"

Ashina Simo did not give a good look.

If the things made by the other party were not bad, how could he make Wu Wen angry.
