In the yard, the famous craftsman Yan Fang completed the restoration of Zhang Xuan's long halberd. Zhang Xuan picked up the long halberd and looked carefully. He saw that the tip of the halberd was restored to its straight and sharpness. There was no sign of being twisted before, which was very satisfied.

Yan Fang smiled and said, "I only now fully understand what is unique about the black iron of Gassha? Generally speaking, if you add more carbon forged steel to form high carbon steel, although the hardness is high, it is easy to break. On the contrary, low carbon steel is not easy to break, but it is too soft. Therefore, I usually use the forging method of Baosteel and wrap high carbon steel with low carbon steel. This is just right, but it is hard to break after adding carbon. This is its uniqueness."

"How can I repair the father-in-law?" Zhang Xuan asked curiously again.

Yan Fang smiled and said, "I originally wanted to use the heavy forging method to repair it, but it must be melted and rebuilt the entire halberd head, which is not realistic, so I used a small hammer to correct it bit by bit. The most important thing is that I cannot break the iron pattern inside. I must listen and knock it, so it takes two days."

Zhang Xuan knew that he had spent a lot of energy on this, so he was grateful and said to Yuchi Gong: "Old Wei, help me get fifty taels of gold!"

Yuchi Gong ran away, and Yan Fang waved his hand in a hurry, "General, don't give any compensation. I'm not here to repair weapons for the general."

"I know, because this is because of the black iron of Gasha."

Zhang Xuan took a ingot of gold and forced it to Yan Fang, and smiled and said, "But if I don't give it a reward, I'm really sorry. These are two different things. I'm afraid that only my father-in-law can do it in the world to repair weapons so perfectly."

Zhang Xuan knew in his heart that although Yan Fang was not for money, his son opened a weapon shop, and he had to consider the human nature and worldly styles here.

Yan Fang was moved. Although it was only fifty taels of gold, Zhang Xuan's friendship was very deep. After thinking about it, he asked his son to take out a sword from the wooden box and handed it to Zhang Xuan with both hands: "This is the last sword I personally built ten years ago. It has always been my collection and souvenir. Since I have the fate, I will give it to the general."

Zhang Xuan had a sharp sword of Lu, but there was no sword. He took it and looked at it. He saw that the scabbard was made of teak wood, wrapped in black shark fish skin, without any decoration, and looked very simple and unpretentious.

He slowly pulled out the sword, and felt a cold air coming towards him. The sword body was made of wuz steel, with special patterns on it. The sword body was almost shiny, but the cold air was so cold that it was as fine as water. The sword body was engraved with the word "Zhiwu" in the form of the sect.

Zhang Xuan waved his lightly, and with a sound of "click!", the horse-tie stake that was thick with his calf was chopped off, which scared him and was so sharp. This was the real sword. Zhang Xuan knew that this sword was worth at least a few hundred gold, so he actually gave it to him.

Zhang Xuan was very moved. He gave a deep bow, "Brother-in-law, Zhang Xuan is very grateful!"

Yan Fang smiled and nodded, "The general is a general who leads troops. I hope the general can understand the true meaning of this sword. The sword is not a killing weapon, but a stop to the end of martial arts as if the four seasons of the world's scenery."

After saying that, Yan Fang bowed his fists and took his son to the mansion.

Zhang Xuan kept sending Yan Fang out of the gate. Looking at the father and son away, Yuchi Gong next to him smiled and said, "General. There are only three swordsmen in the world who truly understand the method of forging Baosteel. He is one of them."

Zhang Xuan nodded, and he remembered Yuchi Gong's words.

Zhang Xuan turned around and was about to return home, when a timid voice came from beside him, "Is General Zhang living here?"

Zhang Xuan turned around and saw that it was a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, pretty, wearing a green jacket and skirt, her hair was combed with a single ring bun, and her big eyes showed a timid expression. Zhang Xuan asked with a smile: "Which general Zhang?"

"Called as Zhang Xuan!"

Zhang Xuan laughed, "I am, what's the matter with me?"

When the little lady heard that he was Zhang Xuan, she hurriedly said, "It was A Yuan who came to ask me to send a letter, saying it was very important."

Zhang Xuan immediately guessed that it must be Lu Qing who had a letter to him. When he saw people coming and going outside, he smiled and said, "Come in first!"

Zhang Xuan took the little girl into the mansion, sat down on the flower bed and asked with a smile: "Is it a message?"

The little lady quickly took out a letter and handed it to Zhang Xuan, "A Yuan was monitored and she couldn't go out, so she asked me to send this letter. General Zhang, if Lu's mansion knew that I would send this letter, I would be beaten to death."

"Is it so serious?"

Zhang Xuan smiled and opened the letter that Lu Qing wrote to him, read it quickly, and the smile on his face immediately disappeared. He thought about it and asked again, "What's your name?"

"I am called Rika, and I am Ayuan's good friend."

"Rika, can you tell me what happened?"

Li Xiang then said that Cui Lu's family was about to marry, and the matchmaker had already come to the door and told me in detail about the marriage within a month. Finally, she said timidly: "Mrs. I have issued a strict order. If anyone leaks the news, I will beat him to death. A Yuan said you will thank me, so I took the risk to deliver the letter."

Zhang Xuan understood what she meant and smiled and said, "Do you want money?"

Li Xiang's eyes turned red and she whispered: "Dad has been ill for several years and has owed a lot of debts. Now there are people who are urging debts at home every day, and my mother can't live anymore."

Zhang Xuan nodded, "How much does it cost to pay off the debt?"

"It's about two hundred stale coins!"

Zhang Xuan took twenty taels of gold and handed it to her, "I pay back the debt and treat the remaining money to your father."

Twenty taels of gold can be exchanged for 600 guan at the time. Li Xiang immediately knelt down in tears, "Thank you for helping you!"

Zhang Xuan smiled and helped her up, "Stop crying, send me a letter to A Yuan, and it will be repaid."

Li Xiang wiped away her tears and nodded, "I will definitely help the general deliver it."

Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment, then went back to the room to write a letter and handed it to Li Xiang, "Hide the letter and be careful not to be found with a black female supporting actress, a green tea bitch, and a white lotus."

Li Xiang still hid the letter in her hair, and she kowtowed to Zhang Xuan again, and then she hurried away.

When the little maid walked away, Zhang Xuan turned around and said to Yuchi Gong: "Old Wei, we may have to leave Beijing early."

Yuchi Gong understood in his heart, and he smiled and nodded, "I'm going to find Xiao Pei back."

In the evening, Zhang Xuan came to Pei's Mansion. This was the first time Zhang Xuan visited Pei Ju after an unexpected blind date in Pei Yun's Mansion.

Of course, Zhang Xuan could use the excuse of participating in the Heroes Club to have no time to visit Pei Ju, but this is just an excuse. I believe Pei Ju knows it, so during the Heroes Club, Pei Ju didn't show up at all and didn't care about Zhang Xuan's ranking. This seems a bit abnormal. It seems that Pei Ju is expressing his dissatisfaction with Zhang Xuan.

The reason is not that Zhang Xuan rejected the Pei family's intention to marry. Zhang Xuan also understood in his heart that the fundamental reason was that he cooperated with Dou Qing and killed Bohaihui and Yuanmin, and Pei Ju couldn't not know about it.

The reason why Zhang Xuan did not come to visit Pei Ju was actually expressing his dissatisfaction with Pei Ju. Pei Ju was too strong and did not clarify the relationship between him and himself.

Zhang Xuan clearly felt that Pei Ju wanted to turn herself into a general of the Pei family, just like Yuwen Taibao, but she was treated better than Yuwen Taibao. The Pei family also asked him to marry a concubine daughter and become a son-in-law of the Pei family, and from then on she worked for the Pei family.

Of course, marriage is also a way to win over. Zhang Xuan is not confused, but Pei Ju is not just for winning over, but for possessing herself. For example, she is dissatisfied with her cooperation with Dou Qing. It seems that she can no longer cooperate with anyone except the Pei family. In addition, Pei Renji excluded Zhang Xutuo, which made Zhang Xuan very dissatisfied with the Pei family.

However, even though he was dissatisfied, since Zhang Xuan had decided to leave the capital early, he would still come to say goodbye to Pei Ju before leaving. He could keep a distance from Pei Ju, but he would never turn against him.

After waiting for a while at the gate, Pei Xin quickly came out and bowed and smiled, "General Zhang, long time no see."

Zhang Xuan also smiled and said, "I'm so busy that I've only been free in the past two days."

"It's understandable, congratulations to the general for his good achievements!"

"Young Master Xin also knows?"

"Of course I know, no one in Luoyang knows, my grandfather also mentioned the general yesterday."

"Oh! I wonder if Ling Zu is in the mansion?"

"Of course, my grandfather is waiting for the general in the study outside, please!"

Zhang Xuan knew that with Pei Ju's status and scheming, no matter how dissatisfied with him, he would not easily reveal it, especially in terms of etiquette, his true attitude towards him would never be seen.

So Pei Ju asked his grandson Pei Xin to come out to greet him and waited for him in the study outside. Zhang Xuan would not think that Pei Ju's attitude towards him was the same.

Pei Xin invited Zhang Xuan to the outside study room and reported at the door: "Grandfather, General Zhang is here."

"Please come in!" Pei Ju's voice came from the room.

Pei Xin waved his hand respectfully, "Please, General Zhang!"
