Gao Hui slowly walked to Zhang Xuan, looked up at his eyes and said, "Bohai Club is not a Shantang, not every army that has returned from Liaodong, we must win over you, we clearly know your performance in Goguryeo. Not only are you great achievements, but you are also famous generals.￥f,

Unfortunately, you are loyal to the corrupt and declining Sui Dynasty. The Luoyang imperial gentry was in power, and those who were jealous of the jealous people were at a high position. No matter how great the contribution you made to the Sui Dynasty, you will not receive the reward you deserve. If you join us, you will be able to obtain the dignity you deserve."

"Don't you think it's a bit abrupt when Madam asks Zhang Xuan to say this? After all, I have never dealt with Bohai." Zhang Xuan said calmly.

"It's a bit abrupt, because time is too hasty, but Bohai will have enough sincerity and will not force the general to agree immediately. I just hope that the general can consider it carefully."

Zhang Xuan bowed with fists and said, "Thank you, Madam, for your attention. I will definitely consider it carefully. Zhang Xuan said goodbye first."

Gao Huihan nodded with a smile, looked at Zhang Xuan and turned around and left the room. At this time, a middle-aged man walked out of the inner room. If Zhang Xuan saw him, he would be shocked. This person was Luo Yi, the deputy governor of Youzhou.

"How is it, is he willing to join?" Luo Yi asked with a smile.

Gao Hui shook her head, "You should have heard it too. He answered very reluctantly, and he was very wary of us. We were indeed a little abrupt."

"It should be up to me, maybe he will consider it."

"This is not necessary. I don't expect him to be loyal to the Bohai Association immediately. I just talk about it first, so that he can't withstand the temptation of others, such as Wuchuan Prefecture."

"But does he have such great value for use?" Luo Yi asked in confusion.

"He is actually just a bridge."

Gao Hui looked out the window with her hands behind her back and said lightly: "Our real target is Zhang Xutuo."

After leaving the restaurant, Zhang Xuan took A Yuan to Ping'an Inn. It was also his first time to stay in the inn where he stayed in Ji County. The guy also knew Zhang Xuan and was particularly enthusiastic about him.

Zhang Xuan booked the next courtyard and placed A Yuan. He pinched A Yuan's face and smiled, "Live for three days. I'll send someone to pick you up the morning after tomorrow."

"Well, young master, don't forget me." A Yuan reminded him worriedly.

Zhang Xuan laughed, "Don't worry, I won't forget you."

He turned around and walked out of the yard, but as soon as he walked out of the door, he suddenly heard A Yuan screaming. Zhang Xuan couldn't help but stop and turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

A Yuan ran out in a hurry and knocked her head repeatedly. She just remembered something and immediately said anxiously: "Young master, look at my stupid head, I almost forgot something important."

"What"

"Young Master Yulang asked me to tell you that your weapons are ready, and you have time to go to Lu's Villa after you come back."

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed. Has his weapons been built in just two months?

"I see"

Zhang Xuan quickly walked out of the inn. At this time, his mind had already flown to Lu's Villa. It was not only his weapon, but also a beautiful woman who made him care about and miss him.

The next morning, Zhang Xuan and several soldiers rushed all the way. An hour later, he arrived at Lu's Villa.

There was no change in the Lu Villa from the last time he left, but there were more colorful colors in the autumn background, and several children were playing by the small bridge. Everything was so familiar, but for some reason, Zhang Xuan had a little sense of vicissitudes of change in things and people.

Time can cure the pain in people's hearts, but it can also dilute the inner emotions. In just two months, the unforgettable relationship that made Zhang Xuan feel quietly faded. It was like a little water of time added to a thick cup of black tea.

Zhang Xuan and the soldiers walked into the villa with their horses and soon found the blacksmith shop. The door was closed, so quiet that no one seemed to be there. There was no sound of ding-and-dang irons.

Zhang Xuan knocked on the door, and for a moment, the door creaked and opened. It was the young child last time. He looked at Zhang Xuan, "You are"

"I've been here two months ago. Do you still remember being with Mr. Luo Cheng?"

"You are Mr. Zhang"

The child suddenly remembered, and he immediately ran to the backyard, "Grandpa, Mr. Zhang is here."

Zhang Xuan pushed the door and walked into the yard. An old man with gray hair ran out of the backyard. It was the old blacksmith Lu Yao, who said excitedly: "Young Master is finally here."

After only two months of seeing each other, Zhang Xuan felt that he was obviously haggard and aged a lot. This must have devoted all his efforts to the creation of his weapons. Zhang Xuan was moved and stepped forward to pay a deep blessing, "Thank you, the old man."

"It's okay, it's okay"

Lu Yao said anxiously: "Go with me to see the weapons."

He had been waiting for Zhang Xuan, and was a little impatient. He took him to the backyard. Lu Yao took off the key from his waist and opened a closed door. The sunlight shone into the room. Zhang Xuan saw his weapons at a glance, an iron halberd placed on two wooden racks.

Zhang Xuan walked forward slowly and gently stroked this unique iron halberd. Unlike the single-blade blue dragon halberd he currently uses, this is a double-blade square painting halberd, about one meter and four feet long, black all over, and the head of the four-foot long halberd was slightly red. This is the color of the black iron of the Gasha. The halberd rod is made of tar iron, and you can see the fine lines of the tar iron.

There are five characters engraved at the end of the halberd, the double-wheeled purple-yang halberd, which is what Zhang Xuan means. He practiced the purple-yang halberd technique. This Fangtian Painted Hydrograph is as wide as a wheel, so he named it the double-wheeled purple-yang halberd.

Lu Yao walked aside and stroked the long halberd affectionately, as if he was stroking his own child.

"Actually, I beat the halberd head more than a month ago, but the most difficult thing is to merge the halberd head and the halberd pole. It took me a month to destroy the three halberd poles to finally succeed. At that time, I couldn't sleep every night, so I was thinking about what to do. Later, I added charcoal to the iron to finally merge them. Master, try it."

Zhang Xuan slowly lifted up the long halberd and felt it was very heavy, at least 150 kilograms. His current Qinglong halberd is only 90 kilograms, and he has to wait until his third breakthrough before using it.

"How heavy is it?" Zhang Xuan asked.

"One hundred and fifty kilograms, the last time the young master seemed to have asked for this weight, but Mr. Luo originally asked for 160 kilograms. But 160 kilograms were a bit unbalanced, and 150 kilograms were just balanced. What do you think?" Lu Yao looked at Zhang Xuan nervously, for fear that Zhang Xuan would be dissatisfied.

Zhang Xuan praised repeatedly, "very perfect. Improper"

Zhang Xuan quickly walked into the yard with the Fang Tian Painted Lithus. Under the sunlight, the whole halberd had a strange luster, the shape was very smooth, and the workmanship was meticulous, just like a magic weapon. Zhang Xuan suddenly had a feeling of being in harmony with it, and he couldn't let it go.

"Come, put down the gold"

A personal soldier stepped forward and placed a cloth bag at Lu Yao's feet. There were three hundred taels of gold inside. Lu Yao was startled and waved his hand in a hurry, "No, no, I can't ask for it, young master, take it back quickly."

"This long halberd is a priceless treasure. Three hundred taels of gold is just my little wish. Please accept it for your seniors."

Lu Yao refused to accept the gold. He said a little ashamed: "I have already obtained ten kilograms of Kasha Black Iron. This is a shameless young master. If I collect gold again, I will become a vulgar craftsman and will never achieve anything again. This is the rule of our industry. Divine weapons are priceless, and the heart of guarding the Tao is fulfilled. Please be sure to understand."

Seeing that he refused to accept it, Zhang Xuan had to ask his personal soldiers to take back the gold. He bowed and said, "Duke Lu's kindness to Zhang Xuan. Zhang Xuan will remember it in his heart. One day, Zhang Xuan will definitely repay the kindness of Lu's for forging a magical weapon."

Zhang Xuan and several soldiers had just left the Lou Villa not long after they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from behind. Then they heard a faint shouting: "Young Master Zhang, please stay."

Zhang Xuan held the war horse and looked back. He saw someone riding a horse in the distance and waving to him desperately. Zhang Xuan had probably recognized the person. After a moment, the rider gradually approached. It was indeed the Lu Qingyuan he knew.

Lu Qingyuan was sweating prostrated and stepped forward and panted, "Prince Zhang, please stay."

"Brother Lu, it's been a long time since we saw each other." Zhang Xuan came forward and bowed with a smile.

“We really haven’t seen each other for a long time.”

Lu Qingyuan complained a little in his tone, "Why didn't you come to Lu's Villa? If I hadn't heard that my brother had come, I would have almost missed it."

"I'm sorry, I thought Brother Lu lives in the county, so I didn't ask in detail."

It makes sense for Lu Qingyuan to think about it. He spent most of his time in the county town, and Lu's Villa came back once by chance. This is no wonder Zhang Xuan.

But at this time he had something important to find Zhang Xuan and hurriedly said, "Okay, I won't blame you anymore, but you have to go back with me."

"Is there anything wrong?"

Lu Qingyuan whispered to him: "It's my grandfather who wants to see you."

Zhang Xuan was puzzled by the old man of the Lu family. He would not like to see him, so he would win over him.

But it is impossible to think about it. Could it be that Zhang Xuan suddenly remembered Lu Mingyue? Is it because Lu Mingyue kidnapped Lu Qing's family scandal that should not be made public? Mr. Lu wanted to remind himself not to tell him about this matter, which seemed a bit far-fetched.

Zhang Xuan was confused, so he turned his horse head and Lu Qingyuan walked slowly alongside him. Lu Qingyuan asked with a smile: "When will my brother come back?"

"I just arrived yesterday afternoon, but I can only stay for three days. The day after tomorrow the army is about to set off for Luoyang."

"What a coincidence, I will go to Luoyang the day after tomorrow."

"Haha, what a coincidence, let's go together."

Zhang Xuan asked curiously again: "What are Brother Lu going to Luoyang to do?"

Lu Qingyuan looked at him strangely, "Do you really don't know?"

"I know what I don't know anything in the past two months, what happened."

Zhang Xuan's heart suddenly pounded. Lu Qingyuan was Lu Qing's brother. Could it be that Lu Qing had something happened to him again.

"I forgot that my brother went to Liaodong. That's right. My father has been named the Imperial College Supervisor and his whole family moved to Luoyang. Because I was preparing for the imperial examination, I stayed in Zhuo County for the time being. A few days ago, I received a letter from my father asking me to go to Luoyang immediately to prepare for the imperial examination. I'm here to say goodbye to my grandfather today."

Zhang Xuan was not very interested in the imperial examination. He was more concerned about Lu Qing's whereabouts. He smiled and asked as if nothing had happened: "Is the only brother who came with me the day after tomorrow? What I mean is that my brother and sister should also go to Luoyang with us?"

Lu Qingyuan didn't know the relationship between Zhang Xuan and his sister, and thought Zhang Xuan was just asking casually. He smiled and shook his head, "My father said Hebei is not safe, so when he took office, he took his mother and younger brothers to Luoyang. Our Lu family happened to have a house in Luoyang. This time I was the only one who took his wife and daughter to the road."

Zhang Xuan was thinking about how to meet Lu Qing these two days. When he heard that Lu Qing had moved to Luoyang and was no longer in Ji County, he suddenly felt relieved. He didn't know whether it was loss or glory. A very complicated feeling poured into his heart.
