A drinking session that reached the top of the willow trees above the moon.
The drunken Tian Song wanted to go back alone, but Xu Mu finally felt uneasy and asked Zhou Zun to see him off.
"Brother Mu, why do you think Tian Guantou doesn't want to come to our Zhuangzi?"
"He wants to follow his own path." Xu Mu hesitated before speaking.
"Where are the roads different? When it gets dark, they have to hang lanterns, and when it rains, they get muddy!"
"Si Hu, what you said actually makes sense."
"Brother Mu, I have been smart since I was a child."
Xu Mu was too lazy to answer the phone and took the people to find an inn nearby to stay overnight.
…
The second day of the lunar month.
The morning fog of autumn is beginning to become a bit hazy.
Standing by the wooden window, Xu Mu looked carefully several times before he could clearly see the scenery on the street through the morning fog.
"Master, do you want to leave now?" Zhou Zun ordered his breakfast and placed it on the wooden table next to him.
"Don't worry, the dental shop is always open at night."
Although the government turns a blind eye to this kind of black market business that is ruining people, in the end, it is rarely seen in the light.
"Then what are I going to do today?"
"Go to the ironworks and have a look."
Every city has an official ironworks. Ordinary people need to spend a lot of money to repair broken kitchen knives and broken hoes.
As for those who have weapons notarized, they can also buy them at the iron shop, and the price is staggering.
When he came to Weicheng this time, Xu Mu was very smart and brought along the five weapons notarization certificates given by the Weicheng official office.
Two knives and three bows, as the name suggests, two knives and three bows.
Xu Mu really didn't want to waste these five notarizations, so in the end he only took some ordinary weapons. This was one of the reasons why he went to Yaxing.
After all, there is an old villager in Yaxing who knows how to blacksmith.
"Let's go to the ironworks first."
If you still have time, there's no harm in going and taking a look. If you find a unique knife, let's talk about it separately.
After leaving the inn and following the long main street, Xu Mu was quickly disappointed.
Most of what comes into view are ordinary standard weapons. Let alone the best knives, they are probably just better than kitchen knives.
After just a few glances, Xu Mu didn't even think about trying the knife, fearing that if it broke, he would be blackmailed into getting a notarization.
"Can you get a notarization for a distant visitor?"
In the ironworks, a tall, middle-aged blacksmith walked over in a few steps.
"Yes." Xu Mu took out the notarization and showed it to the blacksmith.
The middle-aged blacksmith immediately smiled. With the notarization, it meant that he was not just here to feast his eyes on it, and the business would most likely be successful.
After all, you can't buy any good weapons outside.
"Far guest, how about I pick two knives for you?"
"Let me consider."
Xu Mu was very interested and basically looked at it for a while. There was really nothing that caught his eye.
After saying hello, Xu Mu was about to go out.
"Far guest, wait a moment."
The middle-aged blacksmith suddenly became anxious. The business had not been open for half a year. If he only made weapons for the Ministry of War, he would not even be able to earn scraps of silver.
"Why, you want to force the sale!" Si Hu bulged his eyes and spoke in a steady tone.
Xu Mu also frowned. To be honest, he really had no interest in the things in the iron workshop now.
"No, no! I remembered that I have a knife here. Would you like to take a look at it?"
"Please take it."
Fearing that the business would be ruined, the middle-aged blacksmith ran into the inner room in a few steps. Not long after, he was panting and carrying a big knife. As soon as he carried it outside the shop, his legs were shaking from exhaustion.
Si Hu pursed his lips and grabbed the big knife with one hand, which shocked the middle-aged blacksmith and was dumbfounded for a moment.
Xu Mu, who was originally uninterested, suddenly saw the big sword in front of him, and his eyelids twitched.
This is clearly an elongated cleaver. At first glance, it has a thick blade and a long handle, which makes it appear extremely powerful.
The general splitting saber is just a four-foot long handle, about one meter long, but the handle of the knife in front of you is at least nearly six feet long. Coupled with the twice-weighted blade, whether it is a horse fight or an infantry fight,
The fighting power is extremely amazing.
"Where did the knife come from?" Xu Mu put away his thoughts and asked in a solemn voice.
In my impression, the Great Ji Dynasty did not promote such weapons. Over the past hundred years, the Ji Renying army has become weaker and weaker, and they cannot bear such weapons.
"It is said that it was given to a barbarian cave master. The barbarian cave master was also born like a giant. This sword was specially made by him."
In the Daji Dynasty, there were Di people in the north and barbarians in the south. The difference is that the barbarians are still obedient due to the lack of population.
Among the barbarians, every tribal leader is called a cave master. It is not ruled out that there will be cave masters who lead troops to rebel. There will always be one every one or two years.
In the iron workshop, there are often confiscated barbarian weapons.
"Four notarizations, this long knife belongs to a distant visitor." The middle-aged blacksmith smiled.
Xu Mu turned around, and when he saw Si Hu holding the chopping knife and stroking it repeatedly, he already had the intention to buy it in his heart.
Such a knife, paired with Si Hu's natural divine power, complements each other perfectly.
"How about a notarization? I don't have many notarization knives in my hands right now."
"It doesn't matter if you have a bow——"
The middle-aged blacksmith wanted to say something more, but unexpectedly, he found an extra bag of heavy objects in his hand.
When he lowered his head and looked at it, his face was filled with ecstasy, and he quickly took it into his arms.
"For distant visitors, you need at least two notarizations. Otherwise, if you go to the official office, the old officials will not comply."
Xu Mu frowned, knowing that the middle-aged blacksmith had not lied to him. He estimated that if no one bought the saber, it would be thrown into the furnace and melted.
"Give me a long scabbard."
"Easy to say."
After receiving the notarization of the two knives, the middle-aged blacksmith hurried to the back room and tried several long scabbards. Finally he found a good one. He greased it with deerskin and wiped it with his help two or three times.
.
"Yuan Ke, this is the purchase document."
"Thank you, officials."
After receiving the paperwork, Xu Mu took Si Hu and walked out of Tiefang towards Guanfang.
This round of purchases was actually a matter of luck. This cleavage saber has complicated workmanship and is rare.
"Si Hu, how are you?"
"Brother Mu, it's very good." Along the way, Si Hu continued to hold the chopping knife and caress it back and forth.
"If you use it to fight, you can beat ten more!"
Xu Mu smiled. Si Hu was very capable and he was the direct beneficiary. There was no room for carelessness.
"Little boss?"
When I walked to the official square, I saw that the fat official I had seen before was probably really rich. He even had two or three ring rings on his finger.
The jade color is clear and the light is flawless. They are all small items that are not cheap.
Xu Mu made a cold fist and led Si Hu into the official office. The old official who was picking up the money bag looked up at Xu Mu and hurriedly put the money bag away and tied it on his belt.
"What is the little boss doing here again?"
"Knife Record Book."
The old official received the purchase document with dissatisfaction, and asked Si Hu to put down his chopping knife, and nitpicked for a long time.
Finally, he put down his pen, took out a notarization, and handed it back to Xu Mu.
"Twenty taels."
No matter how high or low he was, Xu Mu paid the money lightly.
This weapon notarization is very simple, just like the driver's license in later generations. Only after you have it can you go on the road.
"Little boss, in the past few days, several hidden stakes have been pulled out by the old gangsters in Mati Lake. I heard that there are still two who dare to assassinate Mr. Lu from Tangjiang City."
"What does official mean?" After walking out of the official residence, Xu Mu stopped and turned around.
"Don't ask. If you find out, the officers and soldiers will naturally look for you, and neither the left nor right will be able to escape." The old official narrowed his eyes.
Xu Mu sneered and turned around.
Little did he know that the officials of this gang thought that he had hidden the treasure after suppressing the bandits and did not hand it over.
Hidden, of course, hidden.
But in the huge Horseshoe Lake area, no one except him, Xu Mu, the four treasure boxes and the Tiger Kui silver armor could be found!
