Chapter 23: Gift of the Ring
What made Hong Yi curious was not this woman who was dressed as a man and wore the costume of a prince student of the State Prison, but the blood grain steel that her mouth said.
Bloodline steel was not a type of fine steel. Rather, it belonged to the legendary steel used to build the flying swords of immortal soldiers.
This kind of steel was bright and pure, but inside the steel there would be a blood filament like the human meridian blood vessels.
Legend has it that this kind of steel has spirituality, Buddhism and Taoism cultivators use it to refine flying swords to drive, than ordinary mortal steel refined iron sword is much more flexible, also much more powerful.
However, Hong Yi only read in the Taoist scriptures have this "blood pattern steel" records, itself has not seen, and even he doubted that the world in the end there is no such steel.
His soul cultivation has not been practiced to the realm of driving objects, and even more unable to compare this "blood pattern steel" and ordinary mortal iron in the end with the yin god drive up who is superior and who is inferior.
However, just now this "Guan lice number" boss said the sky ladder pattern steel, ice crack pattern steel, ju flower pattern steel, Hong Yi is aware of, have to have seen, these three kinds of steel to build weapons are sharp weapons, worth at least a few thousand taels of silver, or even worth 10,000 taels, and is priced out of the market.
Because these three kinds of steel to create the sword are really blowing hair, cutting iron like mud.
The ladder grain steel is the specialty of the Western Fire Luo country, because the forged sword has a ladder shape texture, it is called the ladder grain.
The Daqian Dynasty's is Ice Cracking. The southern island Kamikaze Kingdom's ju flower pattern. These three types of swords are known as the three great divine weapons.
Hong Yi had once seen with his own eyes that the eldest son of Lady Zhao of Zhengfu, Hong Xi, had a sword with the ice crack pattern in his hand, which was a reward from the emperor. Hong Yi was all hot under the collar.
"Jade Capital City is the number one city in the world, and this Guan Lice number is the number one weapon store in the world, but they don't even have any Bloodline Steel to buy?" The female disguised as a male "gentleman" sighed once again, unable to hide the deep disappointment in his brows.
"This brother, the bloodline steel is Taoist in the furnace to refine out, the legend to over a thousand times the fire, but also many materials, and finally with their own blood quenching, in order to refine the blood lines to, like the human body's meridians and blood veins, once in the previous dynasty of the Fangxian Dao everyone Wang September Taoist used ten years, only to train out of the palm of the big piece of bloodline steel to, and finally also their own blood withered and died, brother want to buy this legendary steel in ordinary shops. How can you buy this legendary immortal steel in an ordinary store?"
Hong Yi couldn't help but step forward and said.
When Hong Yi stepped forward, the two guards beside the female disguised as a male "gentleman" violently stared at his body, cold light ingesting, as if it was a flood beast, and the two hands touched the waist, seemingly at any time to pull out the murder weapon.
Such a reaction, Hong Yi's heart was shocked, and was almost scared backward, at least he had cultivated the divine soul for a long time, and had the stamina, but just put his feet to a halt, and smiled at the two ferocious guards.
"What are you doing, why don't you back off?"
After hearing Hong Yi's words, the female disguised as a male "Prince" was immediately very surprised, then seeing the attitude of his guards, he was immediately annoyed, his eyebrows raised.
When the two guards heard the "Prince's" rebuke, they didn't say a word and immediately retreated to the sides.
"This gentleman, do you know where I can buy Bloodline Steel?" This "gentleman" immediately took two steps forward and approached Hong Yi, asking hurriedly.
"May I ask this gentleman's name?" Hong Yi asked with a smile.
The "gentleman" felt that he was a bit hasty and impolite to come up at once, so he hurriedly took another step back and arched his hand, his eyes looked at Hong Yi for a while, "You are a scholar, right, dressed in a scholar's green shirt, you already have a merit, I don't know how you know about the 'Blood Stripe Steel'. 'Bloodline Steel'. My surname is Luo Yun."
While the other party was sizing himself up, Hong Yi was also sizing up this "fake gentleman" in front of him.
The other party's face is very white, features beautiful, breath with incense, like orchids like musk, fingers slender, left thumb with a trigger, but the trigger is not jade, but iron, iron shows a pattern, there are buttons grooves, not decorative, but used to shoot arrows.
Seeing the trigger finger on the other person's thumb, Hong Yi suddenly remembered that he had to go and buy a trigger finger if he wanted to open the bow to practice his strength, otherwise he would easily cut his fingers by the bowstring.
Although Hong Yi could see that the other party was a woman, he didn't point it out, but continued to address him as a benevolent brother.
A man dressed as a woman was nothing more than a layer of skin, it would be meaningless to break it, and it would easily cause resentment and even become an enemy.
"My name is Hong Yi, it's just that I've read a few more Taoist scriptures, when I heard that brother Luo wanted to buy blood pattern steel, I felt curious, seeing as how brother Luo should be a student of the Imperial College, how could he want to buy an immortal object like blood pattern steel?" Hong Yi asked.
"Uh ....." Luo Yun paused for a moment, "I was merely asking casually."
"Well, but thirty miles to the outside of Yujing City, is Yujing Guan, which is the root of the Founder Immortal Taoist Sect, if brother Luo can really afford the price, he can go and ask the Taoist priests there, they should have it in their collection." Hong Yi spoke out.
"Yu Jing Guan, Fang Xian Dao?" Luo Yun pondered and looked up again, "Since Brother Hong is familiar with the Taoist scriptures, I wonder if he's ever read that if there's no bloodline steel, what's the best thing to use instead?"
"To practice flying swords? Without Bloodline Steel, what to replace it with?" Hong Yi heard this, "This woman is a rash, right? Where as soon as she opens her mouth, she asks this question. Readers don't talk about strange powers, at least not in public, right? Could it be that this woman is also a cultivator? I wonder to what realm? But since the talk is so generous, I'll feel her bottom? Is she a cultivator or just someone who got interested after reading a few Taoist scriptures?"
Although the heart thinks so, but the eyes look at this woman's eyes, there is a kind of naive flavor, Hong Yi recalled some of the records on the Taoist scriptures said: "The book said that the blood pattern steel is to alchemy to change the quality of the steel, the practice of the human body as the same blood veins to the refining of not come out of the time, you can use a wooden sword instead of because the wooden sword also has a vein. If you replace it with something else that doesn't have veins, it will be ten times more difficult for the divine soul to drive the sword. But I don't really know the exact method of refining and harvesting swords anymore, I just saw it in reading some Taoist books."
"So that's how it works!" Chloe Yun suddenly realized, and a radiance was released in his eyes, "Brother Hong you and I are also readers, yet we know so much, no wonder the present father .......... wants me to come to Yu Jing to study, to read more other books, and to ask more questions of others."
When Luo Yun spoke of his father, he seemed to feel that he had let his mouth slip, and his voice immediately became thin and inaudible.
Hong Yi also pretended not to hear it, he had long guessed that this Luo Yun was from a foreign royal family.
"Using a wooden sword seems to be much less powerful, I'd better go to Yujing to watch to see if there's any bloodstained steel for sale." Luo Yun naturally said to himself, then arched his hand and said, "Thanks for the guidance brother Hong, I'll go to the Jade Capital to watch and see, by the way, brother Hong has a bow in his hand but no finger ring, it's very easy to cut your finger, so I'll just give you a wrench finger to thank you for the guidance."
Saying that, Luo Yun took off the finger ring from his hand and handed it to Hong Yi, "I'm studying at the State Prison, where do you live? I have time to come and find you and chat with you?"
"I'm at the Marquis Wuwen residence." Hong Yi said.
"Hmm, I remember, I'll take a step now."
After handing over the trigger finger, Luo Yun flew out, and Hong Yi saw her at the edge of the building boarding a carriage and speeding towards the city.
"Rather a person without a resourceful and deceitful mind." Hong Yi looked at the finger ring on his hand and sighed.
.............................. .............................. .............................. ....
In the carriage.
"Princess, this Xiucai is not an ordinary person!" A guard said to Luo Yun.
"Where is it not ordinary?" Luo Yun asked.
"When other readers princess you sometimes inquire, they all have a numb face, besides getting close, it's just what not to say. Only this reader, how does he know so many things?" Another guard said.
"Didn't Father say that the Great Qian Dynasty's scholarly people have knowledge from all over the world, so what's so rare about that?" Luo Yun Qi said.
"Princess, you are too naive. The king sent you here to learn the savvy of the Great Qian people, but you ...."
Both guards sighed.
