It was already dark, but the lights in the Sword Forging City were brightly lit, the flames were swaying, and the sound of iron was being struck.
The surrounding environment is dominated by mountains and rocks, and the color is even darker. Except for some transplanted greenery, the rest of the place is full of desolation.
The sound of weapons being forged is endless. Unless you are familiar with the environment here, you will soon feel a sense of irritability.
"Be careful, these swords have just been cast and are extremely sharp. They are all placed in the sword-raising pool to warm up." The supervisor ordered to several guards carrying the swords.
"Don't worry, supervisor, nothing will go wrong."
"Hmph, it's best not to cause any problems, otherwise the city lord won't be able to spare you."
After a few people left, the dark Fang Xuan also walked out.
"Sword-Raising Pond."
As soon as his mind moved, Fang Xuan followed closely.
After dodging and hiding all the way, they soon arrived at the heart of a huge mountain. As soon as they walked in, a heat wave hit their face, but then a cold wind hit them.
Fang Xuan looked at the environment in front of him curiously, and was immediately amazed by the uncanny craftsmanship of nature.
The hinterland of the cave in front of me turned out to be a place where yin and yang met and Tai Chi rotated.
On the left side is rolling magma, like hell lava, while on the right side is an underground river flowing through it. The water is black and cold to the touch.
In this way, one yin and one yang, one fire and one water meet here to form a unique place for raising swords.
The open space at the center where water and fire blended was filled with all kinds of long swords.
Regular sword, short sword, broad sword, thin sword...
Surrounded by spiritual energy, sword energy fills the air.
Fang Xuan also nodded secretly: "Such a strange place is indeed a kind of sword-raising place. It is tempered with water and fire to dissolve impurities. Even an ordinary long sword will become powerful as long as it stays here for enough years. , the sword energy permeates the air, cutting iron like clay."
"I've met the young city lord."
"Well, you go out!"
"yes."
The young master of Sword Forging City, the sword hero.
A golden, straight-breasted robe, with a piece of black jade of excellent quality hanging around the waist. The shape looks rough but is simple and melancholy. The black hair is tied casually with a silver ribbon. There is no crown or hairpin. A few hairs on his forehead were blown away by the wind, making him look extremely light.
She has a handsome face, even more beautiful than the average woman. She has a typical appearance of a boy and a girl. The only flaw is that she is a bit short.
However, others didn't know that Fang Xuan knew that the young master of Sword Forging City, Jian Xiong, was actually a girl.
The story is also very painful. At that time, the Sword Master trusted a fortune teller very much. This fortune teller also calculated the fortune of the Sword Forging City. The final conclusion was that the offspring could not have a daughter, otherwise the entire Sword Forging City would inevitably be in chaos. In serious cases, In the end, the sword master was convinced that all the daughters born to his concubines would be drowned to death.
Jianxiong was also born as a girl, but in order to save his life, his mother disguised herself as a man and raised her as a boy since she was a child. Even Jianxiong has not discovered the flaw, until now.
Jian Xiong focused his eyes on the half-finished Lingshuang Sword in the center of the sword raising pool, and said with a worried look on his face: "Lingshuang Sword, dad regards it as the hope for the rise of my sword-making city, but he doesn't know where the blessings and misfortunes come from. If you are not careful, it will be a disaster that destroys my sword-making city. Official Yu Tianlangzi is ambitious, and dealing with him is just seeking the skin of a tiger."
Bang bang bang~
"Who?" Jianxiong shouted angrily.
Fang Xuan's figure came out of the darkness, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Young Master Jianxiong, I'm... Damn."
"die."
The sword in Jian Xiong's hand was unsheathed and stabbed towards Fang Xuan like a gust of wind.
The Sword Raising Pond is the core of the Sword Forging City. Outsiders are not allowed to approach at all. Anyone who dares to approach will be killed without mercy.
Fang Xuan did not retreat but advanced, the muscles in his arms trembled, and his arms were waving like a crane spreading its wings.
The crane flutters its feathers.
Ding~
Jianxiong's face changed drastically, and he felt violent force coming towards his face. His arms trembled, his muscles and bones ached, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground under this blow.
Crane paw prints in the sand.
Fang Xuan's hands were like crane claws, turning into phantoms and grabbing directly on Jian Xiong's snow-white goose neck.
"Young Master Jianxiong, can you talk properly now?" Fang Xuan said with a smile.
Looking at the narrow-eyed Jianxiong in front of him, he was very disgusted. He looked smiling on the outside. There were male thieves and female prostitutes in the interior, which was extremely disgusting.
Even though he was caught, Jian Xiong remained calm and said in a cold voice: "Trespassing into the forbidden areas of my Sword Forging City and prying into the secrets of my Sword Forging City. Not even gods can save you. Do you really think that if you catch me?" Are you safe?"
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in the secrets of your Sword Forging City. Besides, isn't the biggest secret of Sword Forging City yours? Miss Jianxiong." Fang Xuan said with a smile.
Jianxiong's eyes showed a look of horror, and he suppressed the shock in his heart and said angrily: "How dare you humiliate me like this. Today, I, Jianxiong, will let you stay here even if I die."
"Humiliation? Haha, you can tell the humiliation at a glance. Do you want to try it?"
After speaking, the hand holding Jianxiong's neck moved down slightly. After a few operations, Jianxiong's expression changed drastically and he could no longer maintain his calmness.
"Stop, who are you?" Jianxiong said in panic.
"Haha, you finally admitted it? Don't worry, I'm just a passerby. I didn't come to Sword City to pry into the secrets. As for Miss Jianxiong's secret, I learned it accidentally. I can guarantee that no one else knows about it except you and me. ." Fang Xuandao.
Jianxiong looked at Fang Xuan with an idiotic expression and said coldly: "A passerby would sneak in in the middle of the night?"
"Okay! I'm here for the Fire Phoenix. This shouldn't be considered a secret of your Sword Forging City, right?"
"flaming Phenix?"
"good."
"Who are you? The sacred beast Fire Phoenix is not known to many people in our Sword Forging City."
"Don't worry about it. Take me to find it. I promise not to hurt your life, let alone reveal your secrets. If you don't obey..." Fang Xuan sneered.
Jianxiong rolled his eyes and nodded: "Okay, I hope you can abide by the agreement."
The two of them walked in tandem, led by Jianxiong, through the fire pond, sword furnace, and cold pool to the cave halfway up the mountainside at the core of the city.
Naturally, some people saw the unfamiliar face of Fang Xuan along the way, but no one dared to ask if his young master personally led the way. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome for Fang Xuan to come up with his own strength. If the sword master was alerted, he would be more troublesome. Don't know what will happen!
In front of the cave entrance, Jianxiong pointed to the dark cave entrance and said: "This place is called Suolong Mountain, and it is the iron mine of Sword Making City. Its iron ore can make the best swords in the world, such as Jiuquan Sword and Tianming Sword." The sword and the Fiery Sword were both made from the iron ore of Suolong Mountain. Unfortunately, the ancestors were too greedy. In order to make a better sword, they dug out the dragon's veins, causing great damage to the foundation of Suolong Mountain. Now the entire Suolong Mountain has been destroyed. It is blocked and no longer allowed to mine iron ore, and within the Dragon Vein is the Sword Tomb, where the ancestors of the entire Sword Family are buried, and the sacred beast Fire Phoenix is the tomb-suppressing beast."
