In the Blade

"Anyway, you will work here from now on."

After returning to Songzhou, the Li family's eldest son, who was possessed by the Yin people, threw Liu Bolun to the ground.

"Your job is to brew wine for me, brew the best wine. I can give you whatever you want, as long as you can do the job well... Oh, by the way, the wine should not be too strong. I want the kind that I can control my drunkenness."

"Control drunkenness?"

Liu Bolun thought he had heard it wrong for a while.

This inexplicable weirdo caught him from afar just to brew wine, and even specifically asked him to brew wine that could control drunkenness - he had never heard of such a request. Is this monster crazy?

Drinking and controlling drunkenness? Wouldn't it be better not to drink?

"Yes, it is to control drunkenness."

The bronze axe possessed by Li family's eldest son once again emphasized his request.

That is indeed something that needs to be emphasized. After all, it has seen the precedent with its own eyes. Its mentor, the first person to hold this bronze axe, that powerful warrior, drank all night after a great victory over other tribes, and died of drinking.

Of course, according to its mentor, this is using the essence of grains to communicate with ghosts and gods, but this communication obviously has a limit. And his mentor, unfortunately, did not grasp this limit. The strong and wise priest was too indulged in the mysterious intoxication and went directly to the underworld with the ghosts and gods, never to return.

And this process is not as peaceful as it sounds. In order to break free from the shackles of the flesh and become an omnipotent ghost, its powerful mentor cut off all the skin on his body. You know, even if you are drunk, you can't avoid the pain of extreme punishment. God knows how its mentor did all this with a piece of broken porcelain.

Perhaps at that moment, the strong priest was really possessed by a certain ghost.

It was just that what its mentor wanted to do was too big, so big that even if it sacrificed its entire life to the ghost, it was still not enough.

Fortunately, it did not make such a mistake.

It had learned from the priest and knew very well that trading with ghosts and gods would cost a price. If it indulged in such a dangerous transaction, it would die like its mentor - so it never set any dangerous goals such as "to become a ghost", but limited every transaction within a controllable range.

This is why it has strict requirements for the strength of the wine.

It does need to communicate with ghosts and gods, but it does not want to give up its life just like that.

Fortunately, there are other things at the moment that it can do even without communicating with ghosts and gods.

"Wine is a poison that penetrates the intestines, and sex is a steel knife that scrapes the bones."

Waving his hand to let Liu Bolun go about brewing wine, the figure with the axe on his chest muttered the proverbs he had just learned from this new era, while pouring wine on the axe on his chest to provide inspiration for himself.

Just a slightly tipsy state, it was just right for it to think.

"You mean...sex?"

Several guards nodded and bowed hurriedly. They were all people it deliberately left to do things for it. They were relatively smart and quick in action.

But this ability to understand was still a little lacking.

"I mean, steel."

Throwing the wine glass aside, it pointed to the swords on the waists of the guards.

"It's the kind you wear on your body. I want the best steel as the material, and the best craftsman to teach me how to forge it. Do you understand?"

"Steel?"

Several guards looked at each other, and they thought they had heard it wrong.

If he could hear it wrong, then it was because he had poor comprehension ability. A flesh man without ability was not worthy of living under his hands. So after sacrificing two guards, the remaining guards crawled all the way under his gaze to find materials and craftsmen.

Yes, this is what he thought of. Although this bronze axe is his current home and has considerable commemorative significance to him, after the previous battle, he has realized that bronze may still be the top material at that time, but in this future that has been separated for an unknown period of time, the bronze that was once the best has long been eliminated.

Today is the era of steel, which is a material that is much stronger and more durable than bronze. If this axe was made of steel, it would never have been easily broken before.

Therefore, for safety reasons and to keep up with the trend of the times, he decided to give himself a more solid home.

It also makes up for his biggest shortcoming at the moment.

"It's a pity that the person is not from the same tribe, otherwise I might be able to learn from him... Alas."

Thinking of this, it couldn't help but think of the enemy who knocked off two pieces of debris from it in succession. Although the person who deceived it was not from the Yin people, he was undoubtedly a Bingjiexian - this is why it thought the other party was from its tribe, just because the Bingjiexian process was indeed only used by the Yin people.

Of course, although they are all Bingjiexian, their manifestations are still different. Just like itself, it uses the weapon as a carrier and attaches its consciousness to the weapon, and the Bingjiexian it saw before is obviously a step further. Not only did it attach its consciousness to a war halberd, but it also forcibly grew a flesh and blood body on the war halberd.

It really wanted to ask how this was done, after all, this method seemed a bit too advanced, but before it had time to get closer to each other, the strange Bingjiexian attacked it brazenly.

He even knocked off two pieces of it.

"The controllability of the body is still too low, and the sturdiness of the axe itself is also a problem."

Take a deep breath, it decided to deal with the matter at hand first.

"It is enough to try to exert 50% of the strength within half a month. If it can recover from more than 30% to 50%, this strength is at least enough... Then there is the axe, and a new one must be made of steel as soon as possible. This is the top priority. After these are done, the wine should be in place. After the essence of the five grains, it is time to communicate with the ghosts and gods again."

Perhaps because it witnessed the death of the priest with its own eyes, every time it thought of this matter, it hesitated.

Indeed, reason blocks the communication between people and ghosts and gods, but reason also protects people's safety. It is extremely dangerous to rashly strip away all reason, and one careless death will result.

So no matter what, he will not be stupid enough to do that.

Or in other words, any normal person will not do such a stupid thing.

The second update is here, I'm going to rest, good night everyone.

In addition: Thank you for your recommendation votes and monthly votes, I feel deeply ashamed.

So, after this day of self-contemplation, at least my work and rest schedule has become a healthy person.
