The eunuch only smiled.
"Don't be so nervous. I just wanted to show you Dai Yu State's forging techniques. This is something that can't be found anywhere else."
This time, Tokugawa also looked over. After all, a country's weapon represented the country's combat strength!
When everyone saw the saber, they were attracted by its gorgeous appearance. It was entirely white, but there was a bronze net brand on it. It added an indescribable simplicity and exquisiteness!
Li Yu liked it the most. His family also had a sword, but it paled in comparison to this. However, it was his father's favorite sword.
Tokugawa heaved a sigh of relief. This sword was too exquisite. One look and he could tell that it wasn't a weapon meant for killing. If Dai Yu State's weapons were as flashy as this, then …
But in the next second, his eyes widened!
He saw the eunuch pluck a strand of hair from his head and blow it on the blade!
The blade buzzed, and the strand of hair was immediately cut in half!
Seeing the shock, fear, and unwillingness in everyone's eyes, the eunuch smiled in satisfaction and put the sword back.
Tokugawa still had a sliver of hope in his heart. He asked Li Yu.
"Does Dai Yu State have many treasured swords like this?"
The eunuch looked up and raised his eyebrows. "Is this considered a treasured sword?" He laughed sarcastically. "In Dai Yu State, only swords that can cut through iron like mud are treasured swords."
Li Yu was shocked. In his mind, iron was already an extremely hard object. How could there be something that could cut through iron?
When Tokugawa and the rest heard Li Yu's words, their eyes flashed with fear, but they quickly calmed down.
"Can you bring us to the forging area to take a look?"
They were clearly trying to steal the skills.
The eunuch frowned in disdain. "You are all distinguished guests. That place is dirty and hot. It's not suitable for you to go."
Tokugawa wanted to insist, but the eunuch laughed.
"I wanted to bring you to the shipyard, but you don't seem to want to go?"
Shipyard!
Tokugawa's eyes flashed with gloom. They should go to the shipyard! It was a good opportunity to see how far behind Dai Yu State's ships were to ensure the success of their plan!
Hence, everyone stopped arguing about the weapon and headed to the shipyard.
Back when the Crown Prince was still alive, the shipyard was built in order to build a ship that suited the princess's needs.
It made one's mind tremble the moment they entered.
Tokugawa looked around and realized that there were indeed only a few small and medium-sized boats here. He felt much more relaxed.
Such a big shipyard, but the number of ships that were produced was very small. Although the ships were beautifully made, could they be used for war?
Tokugawa didn't realize that he was already thinking about war!
At this moment, a cheer came from outside. "He's in the water! It's in the water! "
Hearing the commotion, the palace servant smiled and led the Nihon people through the shipyard to the Soaring Dragon River. When they came out from the other side of the shipyard, the Nihon people were all stunned! He couldn't say another word!
Boat!
It was an incomparably large ship!
And it wasn't just one search! A total of seven ships! One of them was already in the water!
The ship had three levels and each level was exquisite. The bow of the ship was raised high, showing off its domineering aura. The Nihon people had so many ships, so how could they not tell that this ship was not only large, but also capable of sailing. At this moment, the ship that had already entered the water was like a gigantic dragon. After it entered the water, it swayed slightly before quickly stabilizing. From its draft, it was unbelievable that such a large ship was so light!
Could it be that the gods were helping the Dai Yu State? How could a human have such skills!
With a last glimmer of hope, Tokugawa asked in a trembling voice, "Can these ships … sail?"
Only then did Li Yu snap out of his daze and ask the palace servant this question. Then, he saw mockery in the palace servant's eyes.
"These ships were originally used by the princess to sail! The princess said that there are seven continents in this world. With these ships, we can go to any continent! "
It was like a bolt from the blue! Tokugawa and the rest didn't look too good. They finally understood that the woman had guessed their plan from the beginning, but she didn't expose them to save their dignity. She only let them out to take a look so that these frogs at the bottom of the well would understand that there was always someone better than them.
Tokugawa and the rest were dispirited, but Li Yu's eyes were filled with infatuation. He really liked these ships. What was the silvery-white color on the ships? Was it iron? How were they joined together? Wouldn't they rust?
Just like that, the group finished their tour with different thoughts. No one said a word during the tour.
In the evening, it started to rain. It was said that spring rain was as precious as oil. The season when all living things were recovering always had a different kind of beauty.
GongYimo stood at the entrance of the palace, looking at the palace in the misty rain. Her hand was on her stomach, as if she was a wife waiting for her husband to return.
Under the warm light, a palace servant quietly approached her.
"Princess, the weather is still cold. Put on some clothes?"
GongYimo acted as if she didn't hear him. "Do you think Gong Dai will come back?"
There was a hint of carelessness in her tone. She was rarely so uncertain and hesitant. She had always been firm and strong. This kind of her had brought a lot of trouble to Gong Dai in the past, right?
How could the palace servant say anything else?
"He will come back, princess. His Highness can't bear to part with you."
The sky darkened, making the rain even more lingering.
In the dark, there was a person standing there. He had been in the rain for a long time.
He was wearing a mask, so his face couldn't be seen clearly. However, his hair was mixed with black and white, and he didn't look young.
"Why do you keep letting me look at her, but not go near her?"
Gong Dai's voice was cold, but more than that, there was a faint sadness.
"That's because even I am unable to prolong your life."
An old man suddenly appeared. He was holding a wine bottle in his hand, his cheeks red.
"I can only extend your life, but I can't really extend your life. If you want to live, you have to break through to the ninth level!"
Gong Dai sneered, "All my meridians are broken, and I have lost all my inner strength. I'm already a cripple. You've been playing with me all this time!"
The old man narrowed his eyes.
"Calm down. You don't understand. Wind and Nature martial arts doesn't only require talent and hard work. It also requires comprehension … That little girl's comprehension is very good. You … are still lacking a little."
"Don't tell me that as long as I have enough comprehension, I can still reconstruct my meridians and return to the eighth level, and then break through to the ninth level?"
Gong Dai's tone was mocking.
"Why not?" The old man smiled, "Once you understand, success will follow naturally. Only when you truly understand the essence of wind and nature can you extend your life and continue living!"
The old man looked like a charlatan, as if he wasn't teaching martial arts, but Dao.
"But what does this have to do with not letting us meet?"
"I can't say …" The old man revealed a hateful smile, "As long as you don't recover, you can't appear. Of course, if you appear and let her watch you die, then pretend I didn't say anything."
