The silence in the room was awkward.
This is not what I expected.
The stance just now was like a broken bamboo. It felt as if a sword would break the stone directly and neatly. As a result, there was only one more gap on the stone, and it was only a small gap.
Duokang looked at the stones on the ground, looked at the sword in Gong Jiaheng's hand, then turned to look at Zheng Luo next to him, wanted to say something, and held back.
Not to mention Duokang, even Gong Jiaheng himself, his face full of beards, was red and black.
I wanted to show it off, but found that the pretense failed.
"Cough, this stone is a bit weird. The few I tried before were easy to break." How could Gong Jiaheng know that a stone he picked up in the house was so hard? If those ordinary stones in the mountains and forests, they will open with a split! He really didn't expect to encounter such a thing, simply, simply... I wish I could kill myself with a sword.
Shao Xuan was surprised. He picked up the missing stone on the ground in the past and looked at the gap above, with surprise in his eyes.
"Good sword!" Shao Xuan exclaimed.
Gong Jiaheng: "..." Don't say it, I want to kill myself.
Seeing Gong Jiaheng's face, Shao Xuan also knew what he was thinking, and explained: "This is indeed the best sword I have ever seen. As for this stone, it is harder than others. According to the level of stone tools we use , This stone is already close to the first-class stone, much harder than the others." Shao Xuan pointed to another stone in the corner, "If it was that one, it would be different."
The stone just now was accidentally picked up by Shao Xuan during a hunt. The stone is indeed very good, but it is too small to be made into a knife and spear. Shao Xuan temporarily threw it in the corner. Jiaheng's test stone, Gong Jiaheng is also very lucky. That's fine, to save this idiot.
Shao Xuan handed Gong Jiaheng another stone. In the eyes of Gong Jiaheng and others, there is not much difference, and it is similar to other stones in the mountains and forests.
"Try again." Shao Xuan said.
Gong Jiaheng is not so confident this time, but for the sake of the surname "Gongjia", he can't leave a bad impression, otherwise he will mention it in the future and say that someone with the surname of Gongjia came out of Gongjia Mountain and made a A fine sword of his own that can't even cut a stone... That Gongjiaheng really wanted to run back to Gongjiashan and kill himself there.
Taking a deep breath, Gong Jiaheng threw up the stone that Shao Xuan handed over again, clenched his teeth and swung his sword down, holding back his strength, even more violent than the previous momentum.
boom!
The stone was broken in half.
Seeing this, Gong Jiaheng also breathed a sigh of relief, but the arrogance just now subsided a little, there is no way, I lost someone just now, even if I save some face now, I have to admit that it was really a blow to people just now. , This also makes Gong Jiaheng understand that his skills are still far behind. If he is given time and continues to study and improve, one day, he will be able to break the stone just now.
Duo Kang picked up the stone that was broken in half on the ground, and put his suspicions behind him, and stared at the sword in Gong Jiaheng's hand with gleaming eyes. However, he also knew that the sword was given to Shao Xuan, he just thought that when Shao Xuan did not need it in the future, he would borrow it to use it for fun.
And Zheng Luo also admires Gong Jiaheng very much. He is worthy of being a boxer, and he can really break rocks easily! No wonder the slave owners of the six cities are looking after it.
Gong Jiaheng handed the sword to Shao Xuan. He did not introduce other weapons now, but asked Shao Xuan how to better identify the stone. Otherwise, if the embarrassing scene just now occurs again, he really doesn't need this face. Fortunately, there are only tribes living in the mountains and forests. If such a thing happens in public in the six cities, especially the royal city, the consequences will be even more serious.
After seeing the sword made by Gong Jiaheng, Zheng Luo and Duo Kang did not continue to stay here. Gong Jiaheng still has something to discuss with Shao Xuan, so they will not bother.
After Shao Xuan told Gong Jiaheng about some methods of identifying the stone, he asked Gong Jiaheng about his future plans.
"I will go directly to Wangcheng. There are still some elders and friends there who need to visit. After all, I have been away for 20 years! I don't know what Wangcheng looks like now." Gong Jiaheng said with emotion, "Some people are looking for work. Jiashan, you can go in just one step away from the door, but you can't take that step until you die." Just like the corpses seen in Shard Valley, they died with great unwillingness.
"The old people in the tribe said that it was God's will. I thought I would follow in their footsteps, but I didn't expect to meet you, Shao Xuan."
"I also got a lot of benefits." Shao Xuandao.
Gongjia Heng thought that Shao Xuan was talking about the ten weapons he sent out, and waved his hand: "This is nothing, I will improve my skills in the future. If you want to build weapons again, you can go to me. Don't worry, I won't charge a high price. of."
Speaking of this, Gongjia Heng paused, his muscles twitched a few times, "Why did you step on the valley before you left?!"
At that time, when Gong Jiaheng came out of the mountain, because of the continuous forging, his consciousness was a little dazed, he tripped over the pit, and almost spit out blood when he saw the leaf letter left by Shao Xuan.
"Cough, that place is really nice." Shao Xuan quickly changed the subject, "When are you going to Wangcheng? Our tribe is about to go out to trade, then I will go out with the tribe and then go to Wangcheng."
"Well, if you don't have a place to stay in Wangcheng, you can go to me. Over in Wangcheng, our Gongjia family lives together. You can find out when you go there and ask." Regarding Shao Xuanneng going to Wangcheng, Gongjia Heng was still very happy, "When the time comes, I will introduce you to a few masters of our Gongjia family. In the future, you can go to them for any weapons you want to fight. Oh, no, I will be a master in the future, hahahaha!"
Speaking of this, Gong Jiaheng's confidence that was hit by Shao Xuan's stone just now came back.
The title of master has different definitions for different people.
In the Yanjiao tribe, the craftsmen who build weapons and repair weapons are called craftsmen, and other tribes are similar, but for the more sophisticated people, only those who have reached a certain level and have certain achievements will be called Masters or craftsmen, otherwise they are all classified as ordinary craftsmen.
In the past, Gongjiaheng was also known as a boxer craftsman outside, but in the eyes of Gongjia's family and some noble slave owners in the six cities, he was not qualified. But now, I went to Gongjia Mountain and learned some secret skills of the ancestors in the past.
In the past, Gong Jiaheng was really arrogant, but such arrogance was a little empty. Even Gong Jiaheng himself would be a little cautious when he was boasting. After all, he was not a good genius among the box people. Otherwise, he would not have been trapped for 20 years on the way to find Gongjia Mountain, and his influence in the six cities is not that great, and he is not as good as some of the better people in the Shang clan.
But now, Gongjiaheng has the confidence to complete the counterattack after returning and become famous in the cities!
Today's Gongjiaheng is like a weapon that has been forged from ore, shedding its initial juvenile body and becoming a more advanced and dazzling sword.
"Then I would like to thank Master Heng first!"
"Hahaha, you're welcome! You're welcome!" Gongjia Heng was a little overjoyed, and he had already imagined what it would be like when he returned to the royal city. However, after seeing the broken stone, he calmed down a lot.
Gong Jiaheng asked Shao Xuan to ask for the stone that he had cut out, and he decided to use this stone as a sword test stone in the future.
"Our tribe makes knives, spears, and axes more suitable. Can these weapons be of a quality comparable to this sword?" Shao Xuan asked.
"That's for sure!" Gong Jiaheng replied.
Because the slave owners like swords, among the many weapons, the craftsmen have made more swords. After all, in the place where the slave owners are, there are not so many giant beasts.
"What are your requirements for these weapons?" Even if you can't build them now, Gong Jiaheng can think about it more, and Shao Xuan will also be prepared to find him to build weapons in the future.
Shao Xuan thought for a while and said, "It's bigger, it's better when hunting."
Gong Jiaheng's eyes twitched, and it really was the style of Yanjiao.
Shao Xuan told Gong Jiaheng a lot of skills in identifying stone materials. In return, Gong Jiaheng also gave instructions to the craftsmen of the tribe after talking with Zheng Luo. Watching the Taihe tribe for a few days, my heart was sour. I wanted to get some advice from Gong Jiaheng, but there was no reason. Gong Jiaheng only talked to the craftsmen of Yanjiao because Shao Xuan helped him. As for the others, Master Heng is too high to be bothered.
The pride of the boxers is that even if they forge a weapon in front of others, they believe that no one can forge a weapon that surpasses them. Not to mention just pointing at the Yanjiao people, there is no pressure on Gongjiaheng.
During the two days that Gong Jiaheng stayed in the Yanjiao tribe, he fully felt the enthusiasm of the Yanjiao people. When he left, he was given a roasted animal leg, one of which was bigger than Gong Jiaheng's whole person. However, for Gong Jiaheng, it was inconvenient to carry such a large animal leg in the woods, so he only cut off a piece and brought some jerky before leaving.
Before leaving, Gong Jiaheng also told Shao Xuan that if Shao Xuan went to the royal city, he would bring him a thousand grains of gold by the way, and in exchange, he would build weapons again. Although Gong Jiaheng doesn't know much about planting, he has a lot of knowledge and can feel the speciality of those grains.
Hearing Gong Jiaheng's words, the people in Yanjiao had even stronger expectations for the Thousand Grains of Gold.
On today's thousand grains of golden grain, the grains are like grapes, much larger than the soybean-sized grains that Shao Xuan saw at the beginning. The heavy grain ears hang down, waiting to be harvested when they are ripe.
Looking at the maturing Thousand Grains of Gold, Shao Xuan thought to himself, the old man Jiju who discovered the Thousand Grains of Gold with him at the beginning, how is this planting now? The people of the Ji tribe should not have any problems. Shao Xuan plans to ask for advice at that time to see if there are other ways to grow a thousand grains of gold.
