Three thousand occupations can be introduced

Momo left, Miao Kong left, and Jun Xun who drank the wine left by Zhou Xu also left. After receiving the secret letter, Ji Erdai hesitated to speak, put a silver ring on Zhou Xu, and took it away. A small dagger, no longer than the palm of your hand, also left.

All of a sudden, Zhou Xu's thatched cottage changed from bustling and chattering to two relatively silent people.

The two of them are most closely related to the most important event in Jianghu: Zhou Xu's master casts the Longyuan Sword, and Luo Ying judges it.The two of them are the ones who understand the deception of the leader of the martial arts best, but they are unwilling to participate in it, and instead choose to stay out of it.

However, Momo and Shuerdai, who were bound to participate, did not directly ask them to stand up. Instead, they used another more difficult method to expose the conspiracy of the martial arts leader.

This is a kind of protection for the confidant.

In any case, A Xu felt caring, with a confidant like this, what more could a husband ask for.

The thatched cottage of the two of them was unexpectedly silent.

There was no verbal communication between the two, only the meeting of eyes.From the very beginning, Zhou Xu's swords could be sharpened, and then gradually became more and more charming.

This can be clearly seen from Luo Ying's increasingly unfrowning face.

Zhou Xu's grasp of the fire is getting more and more accurate. When the bluish-white air will appear, Zhou Xu can tell at a glance.The proportion of copper, iron and gold tin is getting closer and closer to perfection.As for the carvings on the sword, they become more and more refined and more dynamic.

The time until he forges a sword is getting shorter and shorter.

On this day, it was time for him to forge the No.30 sword.He took out the meteorite block that he had prepared long ago, as well as the specially stored peach blossom water, and a mysterious substance.It was specially prepared by Master for Zhou Xu back then.

Zhou Xu searched all over the classics, but couldn't find the name of this substance.And Luo Ying, who has always been well-informed, didn't know what it was.

This day is a good day for casting swords.The weather is beautiful and Zhou Xu is in very good condition. It is really a good moment to forge a good sword.

Zhou Xu carefully made the preliminary preparations, feeling as excited as casting the first successful sword.Luo Ying kept her head down from the beginning to the end, watching Zhou Xu's every preparation.

Forging a sword under Zhou Xu's hands is like the completion of a work of art, and the sword born in his hands is also quite beautiful.

When everything is ready, it's time to light the fire.

At this time, a man wrapped in black came in.He is not tall, with strong strides, and his back is slightly arched. It is not clear whether he is a man or a woman.

But neither A Xu nor Luo Ying, who put their whole body and mind into making swords, set their sights on him.

It was strange for this man to say, he didn't say a word, instead he quickly approached Zhou Xu, and only when he got close to him did he speak: "Can you forge a sword?"

Her voice was hoarse, as if her throat had been cut by a sharp weapon, it was too ugly, but she could still tell that it was a female voice, but her speaking was a kind of torture to herself and the listeners.

This is a familiar voice, this is his senior sister Ziyi, and also the only biological daughter of his teacher Master Ziyu.Zhou Xu raised his head, his eyes naturally revealed a questioning expression.

How could the senior sister come out? Ever since the death of the master, he came out of the hermitage and settled down by the Taohuaxi, while the senior sister was sticking to the place of the master, not moving an inch.

When she left that day, the senior sister said: "She no longer has the ability to live with others, she chose to live alone."

Senior sister is a person who loves swords like life, how can she have time to find him.Zhou Xu was surprised, unless there was a reason for her to come out.

"Junior Brother, the Long Yuan Sword is in the hands of the leader of the martial arts, we have to get it back." She bound Zhou Xu, she only had Zhou Xu in her eyes, and only Long Yuan Sword in her heart.

She didn't notice the existence of Luo Ying at all, and a light flashed in Luo Ying's eyes. This person was actually A Xu's senior sister.

"The Longyuan Sword contains the soul of Master, we must get it and destroy it."

Zhou Xu wrote on the white paper: "The Longyuan sword in the hands of the leader of the martial arts is fake, it was appreciated by Luo Ying at that time, it is just a sword made from the waste of casting Longyuan sword, the sword has no soul. "Zhou Xu pointed at Luo Ying, and the senior sister's eyes turned to Luo Ying.

Hei Yoyo's eyes were fixed on him so tightly that it made people's hair stand on end.

Luo Ying anxiously asked: "There is the soul of Master Ziyu in Longyuan Sword, what's the matter?" This is a secret he has never heard.

"Why do you want to destroy Longyuan Sword?"

"It is said that Longyuan Sword has been following Master Ziyu and has never left his body. I have never heard of whom Master Ziyu gave it to. You two are the only two apprentices of Master Ziyu. After Master Ziyu died, Shouldn't Longyuan Sword be entrusted to you for safekeeping? Why don't you know the whereabouts of Longyuan Sword?"

Zhou Xu simply stopped casting the sword, and asked his senior sister to tell Luo Ying the story of the casting of the Longyuan Sword.And he himself fell into memory.

84. The Secret of Longyuan Sword

Senior Sister Axu Ziyi has a strange appearance, just like Master Ziyu, with a huge head and withered hair. Due to the heat of the sun and the flames of the sword casting furnace, her face is covered with a layer of black carbon dust all year round.Her eyes are usually dull, but only when she forges a sword can she shine brightly.Like A Xu, she only wore black clothes.The whole body is wrapped in it, and there is no woman's unique beauty from top to bottom.There is no woman like her in the rivers and lakes, and no one gives up their appearance for their own martial arts.

Her voice was like swallowing lead, ulu ulu, slurred words.

Because the rules of swordsmiths in the Jianghu are to pass on males and not females.And Zhou Xu's senior sister loves sword casting very much. In order to resist, she swallowed gold and Mingzhi, and finally forced Master Ziyu to let her learn sword casting.

The reason why Zhou Xu was successfully recruited by Master Ziyu was partly because He Luo gave him the golden finger, and partly because Master Ziyu still refused to admit that his daughter was the one to inherit the mantle from the bottom of his heart.Therefore, Zhou Xu's timely arrival, (mainly because the place where Master Ziyu lives in seclusion is not seen all year round, let alone talented young people.) In addition, Zhou Xu's good cooking skills add points.Master Ziyu felt that Zhou Xu was an innovative person, presumably he could learn the essence of sword casting and be able to innovate sword casting.

The days before Master Ziyu's death were dark and tormenting days for Zhou Xu and his senior sister.Because Ziyu couldn't forge a sword.

On that day, Master Ziyu was already described as emaciated, Zhou Xu brought in the food on time as usual, and what he saw was a picture of neither human nor ghost.

"I don't know what kind of demon is haunting me, but I know my days are numbered."

"I shouldn't be troubled by the devil. I am the most powerful swordsmith in the rivers and lakes. No one can forge a sword that is sharper or more powerful than mine."

Every day when Zhou Xu came in, he heard these few words, from regret to final ignorance.Zhou Xu chose to avoid and not listen, but some people just turned a blind eye.

"Master, it's your ego that bothers you." Ziyi opened the door and said in a cold voice. This was the first time she entered since Master Ziyu was bedridden.A Xu noticed that she was holding a dagger in her hand, the decoration on it was gorgeous and unparalleled, and the light was like clear water.This is a sword that will cause everyone to fight if it is used in the rivers and lakes.

A Xu knows that his world has always regarded the sword as a treasure, and he does not want anyone to desecrate it, so what is it for today.

As for Ziyi who always called her father Master, A Xu later learned: Ever since the world was recognized as an apprentice by Master Ziyu, she no longer wants to call Master Ziyu Daddy, but Master is a title.

"Conceited? Impossible, how could I be that kind of person." Master Ziyu raised his hands violently and his eyes bulged out, feeling very angry at his daughter's evaluation.

"Ziyi, my poor daughter, you don't understand the noble profession of swordsmith. Swordsmithing is my life, and I can't give it up."

"I know, Master." Ziyi said slowly, her voice screaming like a crow, making people want to cover their ears, "You don't want to teach me how to forge swords, so I will teach myself how to forge swords." Memorizing the classics, I tried my best to find various ways to forge, I silently lit the fire alone, kept controlling the fire in the debugging area, and wrote notes late at night, I tried to do these things alone."

"When I keep trying to get failure, I never get your praise, encouragement. I'm just a girl under 13 years old, no one cares about me. Why can I persist for so long? Because forging swords is my only Fun is the only proof that I can prove that I am not a waste in this world. Tell me, is sword casting important to me? Do I understand the meaning of sword casting?"

"Don't rush to deny it. Before I was recognized by you, I forged this sword that everyone in the rivers and lakes was fighting for. After I was recognized by you, I never succeeded in forging a sword. What are you talking about? For what?"

Master Ziyu turned pale, lying on the bed, silent, while Ziyi was still questioning an answer.

Zhou Xu stood aside from the beginning to the end and did not participate in the father-daughter war that would break out sooner or later.

Ziyi's chest is bulging, and she is holding the short sword. This is her 13-year-old work, and it is also the work she is most proud of.At that time, Zhou Xu had not yet been accepted as an apprentice by Master Ziyu.

"There is no doubt, master. You are the swordsmith praised by everyone in the rivers and lakes. I admit that you are the one who led me to become a swordsmith. When I was young, I felt that you had a pair of magical hands After throwing those pieces of steel, iron, and tin gold into the furnace, I was able to produce a beautiful sword.
