In less than a month, Hongli established a deep comradeship with Houtian and Zhugang.
Now that Hongli said he was leaving the north, Lin suddenly felt reluctant to leave.
"Actually, it's a long story." Hongli touched his forehead, feeling like he didn't know where to start.
"It's okay, just speak slowly."
"Let's talk about it step by step. First of all, the lord actually has no intention of calling me back. He said that the situation in Hebei Province is temporarily stable, and no major war will break out in the short term. On the contrary, the northern border The crisis has just passed, and the development of the eastern region still needs people to organize."
"Then it's over? Since Jiang Feng asked you to stay in the north to manage development, why do you need to go back?" Lin said excitedly.
"But, if you want to say that I am capable of leading the army in battles, I am in charge of development and administration. I am really one of the top two. I am afraid that I will live up to the expectations of the lord, so I have already told him He said, let him find the right person to manage production and development."
"Then it doesn't matter if you find someone else to come over. You can continue to stay. It's rare that the war is over and we can enjoy life. After the ice and snow melt, we will go hunting together. Monkey Tian and Zhu Gang will also come. How about it? "
"Thank you Beast King for your kindness, but this time I really have to leave."
"Why is this?" Lin asked puzzledly.
"Look at this." Hongli took out a weapon, which was the sword he usually used.
"This is your weapon, Qiongyuan Sword, what's wrong?"
"During the battle with the White Walkers, my Dome Abyss Sword was damaged and repaired countless times, but it was so damaged that it could no longer be repaired. Or it had to be recast."
"Then why not recast it? You can put in more black iron water and red ore, and a new sharp weapon will be born."
"This is my sword of faith. If it is recast, the Qiongyuan Sword will no longer be the Qiongyuan Sword." When Hongli said this, his eyes were a little moist.
"Does this sword have its story?"
"Yes, it is my belief... and also Wan Yansheng's belief..." Hongli finally couldn't bear it anymore, and his tears began to fall unsatisfactorily.
The Wanyan clan was originally an ethnic minority in the north. Thousands of years ago, they established a country with a very large territory. Wanyan also represents the surname of the royal family. But later, other nomadic groups gradually became larger and eventually unified the northern territory. Gradually, the Wanyan clan also declined, but they never forgot their glory.
Hongli's ancestors were martial arts students for more than ten generations, and basically everyone in the clan was proficient in eighteen types of weapons. However, with the development of society and the popularity of only children, there are very few people in the Wanyan clan who are still learning martial arts, and Hongli is one of them.
After the apocalypse broke out, Hongli once looked for members of his own clan, but none of them knew martial arts and had no interest in learning martial arts.
Later, by chance, Hongli met a man also named Wanyan. Moreover, this man was not only good at martial arts, but also a swordsmith. His name was Wanyan Sheng.
Hongli once asked him: "Why don't you join the army? I can help you."
The other party replied: "You are not free to join the army. What I want is to promote martial arts and create a unique weapon."
Hongli smiled and said: "There is no peerless weapon in the world. It's just that the user is too famous to think that the weapon he uses is a peerless weapon."
"Haha, what you said makes sense, and I can't refute it. But even so, it can't stop my determination to create a peerless weapon."
"Okay, then you continue
Your path to sword-making. "
"How about I make you a weapon too?"
"But I rarely use a sword."
"Aren't you proficient in all kinds of weapons? The sword is the entry-level weapon for martial arts practitioners. There is no way you can't master it."
"I do know how to do it, but I don't really like it. I prefer two-handed weapons like tridents."
"Trident, I'm not very good at making this kind of weapon."
"Haha, you don't need to build it, I will ask others to build it."
"No, although I am not good at making tridents, my skills are still the best in Snow Country. Let me make your weapons." The swordsmith said proudly.
"Oh, really?"
"Of course, we all have the surname Wanyan."
"Haha, good point."
Not long after that, a delicate trident glowing with blue light was delivered to Hongli's hand.
Hongli was ecstatic when he touched such a weapon.
Later, Hongli came to Yanhuang with his army, and his trident also became famous in Yanhuang.
For some reason, Hongli suddenly had a wish, that is, to make his weapon a peerless weapon. Because this is Wan Yansheng's dream, he wants to create a unique weapon that will be recognized by the world.
After that, a full-scale war broke out between the Imperial Government and various local forces in Yan and Huang.
When Hongli went out with his army, he often deliberately chose Liu Chuan's force or Wei Chi's force.
Because of Long Shaoyu of Liu Chuan's influence, his weapon Longyin Spear became famous together with him. And Zhao Wenbin of Wei Chi's force is also famous for his weapon Panlong Spear.
However, Hongli's trident is not famous yet, but it is Hongli's superpowers that are famous.
In fact, this is reasonable. How many people can the trident kill at one time? But Hongli's super power can kill tens of thousands of people with one super move.
That scene would scare people to death if told. The blood of tens of thousands of people gathered into a sea of blood. In comparison, the trident looked much bleak.
In order for the Trident to become famous, it had to defeat a more famous weapon.
Therefore, Hongli often went to trouble Long Shaoyu and Zhao Wenbin, but every time they fought in close combat, they were evenly matched. Putting aside their superpowers, Hongli, Zhao Wenbin, and Long Shaoyu are all top-notch martial artists with extremely high attainments in weapons.
Some people admire Xiao Tian's violence, and some admire Jiang Feng's speed, but there are still many people who admire the kind of martial artist who has gorgeous movements but can actually fight.
Later, many things happened between Hongli and Zhao Wenbin. Maybe it was because heroes cherish each other, but after fighting each other, the two actually became good friends.
The relationship between the two as enemies and friends has become famous, but Hongli's trident is still not very famous. Everyone says that Hongli is awesome, but they don’t specifically say that Hongli’s trident is awesome.
Later, the imperial government was defeated, and Hongli temporarily returned to the north.
When Li Ziru formed the new army, Wan Yansheng recast the trident for Hongli again. This time he added a lot of red ore.
Wan Yansheng said: "I believe that one day, your weapons will become famous."
Hongli suddenly said sadly: "Sheng, I was thinking, swords can be famous, knives can be famous, guns can also be famous, why can't tridents? Is it because tridents are not popular weapons in the first place?"
"No, the trident is also very strong. Maybe my crafting skills are not yet up to par."
"This year, you have made so many weapons for the army, but mostly swords. How about I try using a sword?"
"What? Are you willing to use a sword?" Wan Yansheng became very excited, because he was indeed better at making swords.
"I do. I hope the weapons you build will become famous as soon as possible."
"Hongli, are you using the sword for me?"
"Yes, am I loyal enough to you?" Hongli said with a smile.
Hongli originally thought that Wanyan Sheng would be moved and happy, but unexpectedly his face darkened, and then he said with emotion: "Hongli, you have no faith in weapons."
"What do you mean?"
"How can you use a weapon for me? You must have faith in the weapon. Only by having faith in the weapon can you exert its maximum power."
"What kind of faith? I don't understand it at all."
"If you use a trident, you can't make the trident famous. Then if you use a sword, you can't make the sword famous either, because you have no faith."
"Hey, are you annoyed? Why do you always believe in faith?" Hongli was a little impatient.
At this time, Wan Yansheng suddenly threw a sword to Hongli.
"Hongli, you reduce your strength to 50, and then we use the same sword to see which one of us is stronger?"
"You're kidding. I've been on the battlefield for so long. How can you, a man who makes swords every day, fight me?"
"Come on, try it." Wan Yansheng's expression was full of seriousness.
"Okay, let's try it."
In the next hour, Hongli encountered an unprecedented setback. He is actually no match for Sheng. Basically, within a hundred rounds of fighting, the sword in his hand will be knocked down.
"Damn it, do you dare to change it to a trident?" Hongli was a little angry.
"It's the same with the trident. You have no faith."
"Fuck your bullshit beliefs."
However, who would have thought that Hongli, who had always been confident in the trident, still couldn't defeat Sheng.
"Why? Impossible, impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" Hongli said unable to accept it.
"I told you, you have no faith in weapons."
"Shut up and stop telling me about your faith."
Perhaps due to the continuous defeats and Sheng Sheng's repeated belief, the forced Hongli suddenly increased his strength and kept punching and kicking Sheng.
Sheng's strength is only fifty. No matter how strong his martial arts is, it is of no use in the face of arrogant power.
How could Sheng, whose defense power was only 25, withstand such a beating, but he did not scream during the whole process.
A minute later, when Hongli came to his senses, Sheng had a bruised nose and swollen face, his face was covered in blood, and he didn't know how many teeth he had lost.
At that moment, Hongli looked at his hands covered with blood and kept trembling: "What have I done? What have I done?"
Suddenly, Hongli went crazy and screamed: "Come, come, healer, come, come!"
Later, all Sheng's injuries were cured, but Hongli no longer had the face to see Sheng.
After that, the two never saw each other again.
In fact, Hongli always thought about Sheng in his heart, and he never forgot Sheng. But he couldn't forgive himself, he really didn't know how to face Sheng.
Sometimes in dreams, I would dream of Sheng with his head covered in blood, and Hongli would collapse and scream.
Later, the new army was defeated, and the Snow Kingdom was completely lost, becoming the territory of Jiang Zhi's forces.
There is no whereabouts of that Sheng. It is not known whether he surrendered to the Jiang Zhi forces or left the Snow Country. In short, Hongli found no trace of Sheng again.
until……
