As an ordinary blacksmith 2000 years ago, how could he know Huo Guang's tricks one after another.
Anyway.
After hearing him say that he is not that material.
Immediately, I felt that I couldn't hold on to my dignity, and questioned: "What are you drawing? Weapons are not weapons, and farm tools are not farm tools. Are you bluffing me?"
Yes.
You're just bluffing him, but with a mid-16th century flintlock!
What is incomprehensible is the most mysterious thing.
Seeing Ouyang Zhi's dissatisfied look, Huo Guang smiled lightly and said, "Just say you don't understand if you don't understand. Why do you say I'm not a weapon?"
Ouyang Zhi immediately argued: "What kind of weapon is this? A knife is not a knife, and a sword is not a sword. If you want to say it is a blunt weapon, it must have a sense of weight!"
However.
Huo Guang shook his head and said: "This thing is not a blunt weapon. If you have to classify it, it must be a sharp weapon!"
originally.
He wanted to say that this was a hot weapon.
But I thought that if I said that, I would have to explain to a blacksmith what cold weapons and hot weapons are.
Explain to people from more than 2,000 years ago?
That’s a clear explanation!
It's better to just make some nonsense and classify the flintlock gun as a sharp weapon.
As soon as Huo Guang said his words.
Ouyang Zhi immediately pointed out the flaw in Huo Guang's words and said, "A sharp weapon, is it sharp? Is there a sharp edge like a knife blade or a sword blade?"
Sharp edge?
Regarding this issue, Huo Guang pondered for a moment. After thinking for a while, he slowly spit out seven words.
"I am the invisible blade!"
"Intangible?" Ouyang Zhi didn't understand the meaning, but he still maintained a skeptical attitude and asked: "I really haven't heard of any sharp weapon that is invisible. Why don't you just say it directly, it has nothing to do with my Big and Small Longyuan In a sword fight, who is more powerful?"
A flintlock vs. sword fight?
Forehead...
Is there any comparison? The two are not the same type of weapon.
After thinking about it.
Huo Guang still decided to say that shocking saying!
"I can't belittle the sword you forged. Let's put it this way. It's faster than a sword from seven steps away; within seven steps, it's accurate and fast."
However.
Ouyang Zhi was still dissatisfied and asked: "What is this statement? This is the first time I have heard that someone is more powerful based on distance. Could it be a crossbow?"
Crossbow?
There seems to be some similarity.
After all, they are all long-range weapons!
But if you say that, it would be too out of tune with a flintlock gun.
immediately.
Huo Guang frowned and said, "I don't know what it is. It's all described in the works left by Master Ou Yezi."
"If I could understand, why would I be looking for the one-of-a-kind genius?"
"so!"
"Looking at your amazing bones and plump heaven, you might be a destined person. I will tell you all the contents of Master Ou Yezi's secret book."
"As for the price, you only need to give me two swords in exchange."
Ouyang Zhi heard this.
He immediately hugged the sword in his arms tightly with both hands, frowned and scolded: "Good boy, after talking for so long, it turns out that you are here for my sword!"
Looking at Ouyang Zhi, a red-faced man, he looked wary.
Huo Guang couldn't help but smile.
Shaking his head, he thought that this person was really funny!
"Ahem, I'm kidding. Blacksmith Ouyang, don't be so nervous. You have to know that I am Huo Yilang, the younger brother of the champion. I will covet your two unknown swords!"
"okay."
"I'll be serious with you next."
After saying that, he drew a long black gun barrel pattern on the wall.
Wait until the painting is finished.
Huo Guang looked at Ouyang Zhi, who was still confused, and said: "This thing is called a clarinet. It has a round hole in the middle and is the same size. You can think of it as something without bamboo joints. What you have to do is Forged to be seamless.”
"To be honest, this kind of thing is difficult to do using traditional blacksmithing methods."
“So it’s up to you to innovate.”
"Master Ou Yezi once said that it doesn't matter if you can't understand the works he left behind at first glance. As long as you can get this clarinet out, you can continue to study!"
"You can think of it as Master Ou Yezi's test for his successors."
It is not easy to fool an old fox in the court like Dr. Zhang Tang, so it is not easy for him to fool a blacksmith.
after all.
I am not making this up, at most I am just comparing the past with the present.
Ouyang Zhi looked at the clarinet on the wall and frowned: "Master Ou Yezi really has this trial? Why don't I know about it and let you, a young man, know about it?"
Regarding this doubt.
Without even raising his head, Huo Guang began to explain: "I am Yilang, and I am in charge of advisory duties. Your Majesty always orders me to come to the palace to find a solution when something happens. Do you think it's strange that I know something you don't know?"
After hearing this.
Ouyang Zhi looked at Huo Guang again and said, "You are so young, are you really Yilang?"
"Don't believe it?" Huo Guang chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. You can go to the side hall near Zhao Wang Palace to find me. I live there now."
"Uncle blacksmith, work hard."
"alright."
"With that said, I'm going back."
After saying this, Huo Guang didn't care whether Ouyang Zhi believed it or not. Anyway, he left this place that was even dirtier and worse than Zhulong City Walled City.
You said it’s okay for children to squat on the ground and use the toilet casually. How come there are adults squatting on the ground to do this?
What kind of people are here!
After Huo Guang left, he still couldn't help but complain in his heart.
As for why he said this to Ouyang Zhi, it was actually just a temporary idea and a whim.
But again.
It was also his long-planned idea. He planned to gather all the blacksmiths who had no private work to do because the Yantie official camp had no private work.
If there is a chance to take power in the future, I wonder if we can really come up with some hot weapons such as earthen walls and cannons, and then try to set up a magic machine battalion for fun.
Just imagine!
It's always good. What the reality is depends on the subsequent development.
Huo Guang walked all the way back to his residence in the side hall next to the Zhao Palace, preparing to go into the house and rest first.
Anyway.
Based on his understanding of Zhang Tang, the imperial censor, even if he wanted to discuss things again, he would have to wait until the early morning to wake him up.
That was the sweetest moment when he slept.
Go to bed early and wake up early.
This way Mr. Zhang won’t be able to disturb his sleep, perfect!
But he didn't expect that as soon as he walked to the house, he found that his door was opened, and there was a little thief inside who was going through his things.
Good guy!
All the things stolen were stolen from him, Huo Guang.
Huo Guang couldn't bear it now. He immediately shouted: "Hey! Where did the thief come from? He dared to steal things from Ben Yilang's house!"
now.
The little thief was playing with Huo Guang's two-stone iron bow.
An angry shout.
It shocked him!
But when the little thief came to his senses, he stared at Huo Guang without any fear and said, "You are the thief. Who knew you saw me stealing something!"
Ya'er!
This child who looks two years younger than me is so courageous.
Even though he was caught stealing something, he didn't show any panic at all.
even...
Be confident!
Huo Guang suddenly became unhappy and said, "You little thief, you are holding my bow in your hand. Did you ask for my permission?"
"I didn't allow it, so you just took it in your hand."
"Taking it without asking is still not stealing!"
However.
Before Huo Guang got angry, this little kid looked spoiled and said, "Bah, who do you think is a little thief?"
"Do I need your permission to take this bow?"
"In Handan City, as long as I, Liu Xiang, like something, it belongs to me, Liu Xiang!"
The words fell.
This little kid was about to walk out, dragging his two-stone iron bow.
Then Huo Guang would definitely not let him take away the treasured bow he won from King Zhao.
Immediately!
He reached out and grabbed the kid's clothes and cursed: "Which family are you a kid from? How can you feel so confident about stealing other people's things?"
However, what Huo Guang didn't expect was that the little guy was caught by him and he immediately pulled his bow and threw it at him.
pity.
He couldn't hit it.
This is a two-stone iron tire bow made entirely of iron!
Even Huo Guang felt tired after carrying it for a long time, let alone a child two years younger than himself!
but!
The child's behavior made Huo Guang very angry, and Dang even decided to let him spend a complete childhood!
So he picked him up, took off his pants and started spanking him. It's a pity that there are no belts called "Seven Wolves" in this era.
"How dare you hit me!"
Liu Xi was beaten and wanted to break free from Huo Guang's restraints.
But he is two years younger than Huo Guang, so how can he be as strong as Huo Guang?
Several attempts ended in failure.
Huo Guang said: "You little thief, you came into my house to steal things, how dare you say that you are so arrogant? See if I don't let you know what the dangers of society are!"
The voice fell.
Huo Guang's slap came down.
This Liu Xiang burst into tears all of a sudden. While crying, he shouted: "Mom, someone is hitting me, please help me!"
The crying grew louder and louder.
Huo Guang was also stunned...
Good guy?
After only two spankings, I started crying for my father and my mother!
As expected, he is a child spoiled by his parents. So Huo Guang decided to hit him a few more times to improve his memory.
"Call me mother? It's no use calling me mother, you little thief, can you still steal things?"
However.
Just when Huo Guang raised his hand and was about to continue teaching him, a group of people suddenly broke in, and the woman at the head shouted: "Stop, don't hit my daughter!"
Huo Guang turned around when he heard the sound.
shocked.
He actually saw a beautiful woman who looked exactly like a certain big star named "Boss Yang".
And in this daze time.
The beautiful woman pushed Huo Guang past, trying to snatch the little kid from his hands.
And this little kid who was crying for his father and mother just now, without Huo Guang's suppression, suddenly waved his fist at Huo Guang arrogantly.
Huo Guang, who was stuck in the appearance of an "old friend", suddenly pulled him back.
Suddenly.
His face darkened.
He grabbed Liu Shan's fist, then glared at the beautiful woman in front of him, and said, "Madam, you don't want your child to get hurt, right?"
"You have to take it back and educate it well."
"I, Huo Guang, am the counselor sent by His Majesty. Your son came to my place to steal my things, and I just taught you a lesson. But if you continue to mess around, then if I really want to get angry, I won't do it lightly. ”
Hear this.
Although the beautiful woman who looked like Boss Yang was angry, she could only say softly: "Hurry up and let go of my son. My son is the son of King Zhao. If you hurt him, King Zhao will definitely not hurt you." Let you go."
Liu Pengzu’s son?
I wipe it!
Why did I beat King Zhao’s son?
Speechless.
But I really can’t blame myself this time. Who would have known that King Zhao’s son would run into his room and steal things.
Is it possible...
Let your son steal what I lost?
Huo Guang frowned and said, "King Zhao, do you think this is his child? Who are you, madam?"
At this time.
Just listen to the beautiful woman pleading: "I am the concubine of King Zhao, named Naoji. I also ask Huo Yilang not to hurt my child."
Nao Ji?
Forehead...
do not know!
After all, Huo Guang had only been in Handan for two or three days, so Huo Guang didn't know who Nao Ji was.
But thinking that the other party is the wife and concubine of King Zhao.
Simply.
It’s better to accept it as soon as it’s done!
So Huo Guang let go of Nao Ji's son and said, "Madam, if you take her back, you will have to be disciplined by King Zhao."
"You know, it's just children who are playful."
"For those who don't know, I thought it was King Zhao who refused to admit defeat and asked his son to steal back the bow he lost to me!"
The words fell.
Huo Guang picked up the two-stone iron bow that had been smashed to the ground by Naozi. He meant to tell the other party that he hit Naozi solely because he broke in and stole my things.
It’s not that I want to hurt King Zhao’s face.
After Nao Ji checked that the child was okay, she immediately said: "Huo Yilang, I will inform King Zhao of this matter. As for how to teach the child, King Zhao has the final say."
"Xian'er!"
"let's go..."
The words fell.
Nao Ji took Nao Zi and a group of slaves and left here without pestering Huo Guang.
She is also easier to talk to than ordinary women.
only...
What the other party told King Zhao was obviously threatening him.
Eh.
Now he is getting annoyed again. King Zhao will definitely use the topic later and he will have to think carefully about how to deal with it.
only.
Huo Guang lay on the soft bed and fell asleep after thinking about it.
Until the fourth watch.
He was woken up by the servants of Duke Zhang who knocked on the door and called him over. After arriving at Zhang Tang's room, Zhang Tang's first sentence was to ask him how the investigation was going.
then.
Huo Guang told the imperial censor everything he had learned from the old bamboo craftsman.
But Zhang Tang finished listening.
There was no surprise as Huo Guang imagined.
seem.
This kind of tragedy that happened to the Jiang family, which was equivalent to the annihilation of the family, was no longer strange to Zhang Tang, the imperial censor in the court.
I saw Zhang Tang thinking for a while.
Then he said: "Since everyone in the Jiang family is gone, don't investigate from this aspect. You have to remember that His Majesty sent us here just to find out whether what Jiang Chong told us is true."
"As long as there is no authorization from His Majesty, the rest of the matter will be done."
"Just leave it alone..."
As the imperial censor Zhang Tangzheng was speaking, seeing that Huo Guang didn't respond, he glanced at him.
Good guy.
He was actually in a daze, probably not listening to a word he said.
then.
He coughed heavily and said, "Why are you dazed?"
Huo Guang immediately covered it up: "No, no, I'm listening. Mainly, I'm thinking about something, should I tell you?"
"Just tell me if you have anything to say!" Zhang Tang said.
However.
Huo Guang scratched his head and said slowly: "I'm thinking about how to deal with King Zhao later!"
However, the imperial censor snorted and said: "King Zhao, I will take care of it myself, I don't need you to deal with it!"
"Can this be delayed?" Huo Guang suddenly showed a look of joy on his face. He looked at Mr. Zhang and said gratefully: "I was scared to death. I thought that beating Prince Zhao's son would make him collapse. It’s bad luck!”
Zhang Tang: "Huh?"
