The days became regular day by day. Every morning, Ji Mo first went to Mr. Zhao to teach homework and learn new knowledge.In this era, there is no such thing as an imperial examination. Everyone works hard to study articles and write good articles in order to write popular articles to gain fame. With fame, one can become a celebrity, and maybe some prince will appreciate it and be directly promoted.

Ji Mo's understanding of all kinds of things in the previous world is probably the ancient times, the ordinary feudal era, there were wars, wars, and of course taxes, and male superiority and female inferiority.As for this world, through Mr. Zhao's explanations from various aspects, even if he is still in the small courtyard and stays at home, he seems to be able to comment on it, and he has a rough outline of the world in his mind.

Small countries pay tribute, and princes pay tribute. The king is the highest level, which can be understood as the son of heaven, but the name "son of heaven" is not popular. They are all called "wang", with a surname in front. Today, it is "Liu Wang" in the world.

Ji Mo's uncle, Liu Zhongjun, also became a member of the royal family because of the "Liu" surname, which is a bit more precious than his previous status as a son of an aristocratic family.

Mr. Zhao doesn't ask Ji Mo to make good articles, it is enough for him to appreciate these, some common sense, and some customs.

At noon, Ji Mo will eat under the service of the maid. The food is quite diverse. In the past, Ji Mo didn't think much of it. He only thought that he was a commoner in the last world. It may be a wealthy family, and it is normal to eat better.

Now that I know my life experience, I know that these foods are all because of an uncle who is a royal family member, and the past between the Ji family and the Liu family... Looking at these delicious foods, I feel a bit stuck in my throat.

I don't know what the Ji family was like in the past, whether they also have these delicacies, which are served every day, and the meals are continuous.

After the meal, there will be a period of time for Ji Mo to take a rest. Because the distance is too far, he will not go back to the small courtyard of the Buddha Hall to rest, but to study not far away, and there is another room facing the lake, which is quiet and elegant. It is only used by Ji Mo alone, and the furnishings in the house are more rich and elegant than those in the Buddhist hall.

In the afternoon, it was Ji Mo who studied with Master Kong. The two main activities were in the sword casting room. The small courtyard where the sword casting room is located. The exterior painting style is still in line with the garden, but the inside is completely different. , It can be seen from many places that it is newly built, probably for the convenience of self-study.

Usually, when I didn't know it, I only regarded Aunt Ji as the owner of the garden, and took everything for granted, but after knowing it, and looking at these meticulous arrangements, I had to praise Uncle Liu for his hard work.

Besides the Ji family, this Master Kong's sword-casting skills are also quite commendable. I don't know how many disciples outside, but they will spare this afternoon every day to come and teach themselves alone. Faculty Salary——

If there is hatred, can the enemy still take revenge after doing this?

Every time Ji Mo thinks about it, he feels suffocated in his heart, but he really doesn't have the confidence to accept Uncle Liu's favor, so he redoubles his efforts when studying. Master Kong discovered it once, said it once, and changed it a little. Two days later, he reverted to his old ways, which also made him a little helpless.

On this day, after dinner, Ji Mo chatted with Aunt Ji as usual, and when he heard all kinds of anecdotes about sword casting from her, Aunt Ji asked, "Mo'er, your business is yours' business, and it has nothing to do with you. All kinds of things between the Ji family and the Liu family will be terminated when I come here. I am your aunt and he is your uncle. Maybe his relatives are wrong, maybe he didn't tell the truth, but he owes me nothing. It was the Liu family who wanted to forge swordsmanship for their own use, and he never forced me, so I won't hate him, and you shouldn't hate him either."

"I...I don't hate..."

Ji Mo murmured, saying "hate" has no confidence, eats other people's things, uses other people's things, and then finds out the old grudges, forgets these daily gratitude, and learns under the teacher provided by others, and learns it well. To take revenge seems to be a bit of a white-eyed wolf.

However, things are not that simple...

Ji Mo had never dealt with such a complicated relationship before, and he was entangled to death.

Unknowingly, his little brows frowned, and his appearance was neither left nor right, as if he wanted to twist himself into a twist, so that he could make it right.

Aunt Ji reached out to stretch his brows, pursed her lips, and smiled slightly: "You are still young, just think about studying hard, and don't think so much about other things."

"--it is good."

Confused, Ji Mo bowed his head. He is not financially independent. It’s useless to say anything, and it’s useless to think about anything. It’s true that you have to study hard. Let’s talk about it during the exam. The most important thing is to be able to Make a valuable sword, and in exchange for the money, at least move it first.

With Aunt Ji's persuasion, the burden seemed to be less in his heart. Ji Mo was awkward for two days, but he gradually got used to it, otherwise, what else could he do? Nothing can change this day.

Looking back to the front, the ore learning is almost done. The specific adjustment ratio is the essence of sword casting. He is too young to know how to do it. Master Kong skipped this link and briefly explained it. The subsequent smelting method.

In order to facilitate Ji Mo's understanding and study, Master Kong began to forge swords in front of him. After selecting six kinds of ores and weighing them, they were put into the shaft furnace one by one. He took Ji Mo to stand on the high ladder and let him Watch that flame.

"Different ore ratios will have different flame colors, and you need to distinguish them one by one..."

As he said that, Master Kong explained to Ji Mo on the spot. The flames below slowly rose up. He knew that he was still far away, but the heat seemed to have risen one step earlier, making his face slightly hot. It had been a long time since he looked at it. , I can also see Zhu Chengbi, where the line of sight seems to be green, it is difficult to distinguish other colors.

Ji Mo rubbed his eyes, and continued to watch carefully. Occasionally, some black and turbid air would rise up, making people have to avoid the smoke, and then thinking that the impurities in some ores might burn and be poisonous, he covered the air again. He blocked his nose, looking disgusted.

Master Kong wanted to laugh when he saw it, so he laughed too, laughing loudly, not caring about inhaling such fumes at all, or, he was used to being in these fumes in his daily life, and now seeing and smelling them, instead feel kind.

"You have to smell more in the future. A skilled swordsmith can even smell the smoke without looking at the color of the flame. You still have to learn what to add and what to subtract."

Master Kong said with a smile.

"Can master do the same?" Ji Mo blinked, curious, it sounds a bit miraculous!

Don't look at it, just smell it?Fireworks, don't they all have the same taste?

Ores are not spices, can there be any huge difference?

"Heh..." The laughter stumbled, and Master Kong touched Zha Zha's beard, coughed lightly, and said, "I can tell most of them."

These words were too empty, Ji Mo could hear that the other party was guilty, and wanted to "shh", because it was the master who endured it.

"Does Master know anyone who can do this?"

Ji Mo asked, really wanting to know if such a god-man really exists.

At this question, Master Kong couldn't help sighing, he looked at Ji Mo with some pity, touched his head, his hands were rough, and there were some mineral powder on them, after touching, many of them fell to the ground. In front of Ji Mo, he lowered his eyes, and heard the voice above his head was low and sentimental.

"Ji family, there are many people in your Ji family who can do this. When I came to ask for advice, I saw it with my own eyes, and I was shocked."

Master Kong opened his mouth and talked about all the things he asked for advice back then. He didn't feel at all that it would be embarrassing to ask others for advice in his capacity. Instead, he vividly remembered everything back then.

The Kong family's sword-casting technique originated from the very beginning, and it can be said that it started from a blacksmith's shop. Compared with those sword-making families that have been handed down from generation to generation, it is naturally different. Not to mention the ore ratio, the essence of such sword-casting skills lies in the smelting The heat, the watering technique, the repairing technique, the attention to sharpening the blade... In all aspects, the method that the Kong family only slowly figured out in the last lifetime, naturally cannot be compared with the Ji family.

"The Ji family's sword-making skills are already in the blood. You are a descendant of the Ji family. In the future, your sword-making skills will definitely be even better."

After Master Kong finished speaking, he patted Ji Mo's shoulder with a big hand like a palm fan, very forcefully, and the heavy pressure also penetrated into Ji Mo's heart.

Compared with "melting into the blood" or something, Ji Mo believes that it is immersion, or that long-term skills are written into the genes, so that the next generation will be one step ahead of others, but if they don't touch it in the future, they will probably gradually forget it. up.

To be honest, Ji Mo always has doubts about the generations of families in this world. Shouldn’t there be frequent wars in ancient times, or natural and man-made disasters? ?

The so-called long-term unity must be divided, and long-term division must be united. How can the aristocratic family here have more than ten generations at every turn?Even if one generation is counted as 40 years old, ten generations will have 400 years. The 400-year prosperous age may not be called a prosperous age, but an ordinary age. This dynasty is a bit too long.

There seems to be some problem here, or there are rules that he doesn't know. Ji Mo silently wrote down, and didn't ask rashly. He couldn't explain where his impression of ancient times came from. People who have never experienced wars are very Isn't it strange to say that there were many wars in ancient times?

Firmly guarding the secret of time travel, Ji Mo felt that he could be more calm.

When the calm Ji Mo was chatting with Aunt Ji at night, he couldn't help asking about the history of the Ji family. He talked about the words that Master Kong admired so much, which made Aunt Ji miss it, saying that he had never told anyone about it. Described little by little, supplementing Ji Mo's understanding of the world.
