Wandering the Heavens

"There are always people online saying that Chinese men don't understand romance, but in fact, they don't understand the romance of Chinese men."

Yu Xian took the red-hot iron block out of the furnace, placed it on the forging table, and hammered the iron block while talking nonsense.

"For some people, Chinese men don't remember the anniversaries and holidays between lovers."

"I won't sit in front of a candle and eat an undercooked steak with a knife and fork."

"There are many other unromantic charges like these, so I won't go into detail."

Yu Xian glanced at the comments and continued to talk nonsense: "Some brothers asked what the romance of Chinese men is? It must be the "Mandate from Heaven" on the Imperial Seal, which means longevity and prosperity, or what Huo Qubing said: "How can I have a family if the Xiongnu is not destroyed?"

"It was Wei Qing's expedition to the north of the desert that defeated the powerful Xiongnu. It was Chen Tang's memorial that clearly stated that anyone who offends the mighty Han must be punished, even if they are far away."

"They are the soldiers on the frontier battlefield in Tang poetry, and they are Xu Da and Chang Yuchun who led the Northern Expedition Army to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun."

"I am not very knowledgeable, so I can only list these. I welcome you to add to it."

"As a ritual weapon, the Han sword is elegant and luxurious in shape. Today, I will use all my life's knowledge to replicate a Han sword based on the sword of Emperor Wen of Wei, Cao Pi."

After saying this, he stopped talking nonsense and started to work seriously.

After successfully resigning from his original unit, Yu Xian wandered around for more than a year, visiting all the cities he wanted to go. Later, he felt bored and simply started live streaming and making videos.

Intangible cultural heritage themes are very popular these days, so he returned to his hometown and leveled the vegetable garden and converted it into a workshop, which made the old man and the old woman so angry that they couldn't eat for several days. Not only did he not get married, but he even quit his job more than a year ago before telling them.

Back to the topic of intangible cultural heritage, someone has made the pens, ink, paper and inkstone, but as for armor, I don’t have the patience and many people are making it.

So Yu Xian set his sights on weapons manufacturing. After all, in the mission world, he first learned about mechanisms from Feng Asan, and then hung out with the Song Yingxing brothers, and he mastered a large number of ancient techniques and craftsmanship.

Under such circumstances, Yu Xian reproduced many strange and bizarre cold weapons from ancient books, and finally succeeded in becoming famous by replicating an Embroidered Spring Knife. From then on, there was a eunuch who was the Minister of War and the Director of the Armament Bureau on the Internet.

Why is he a eunuch? Because Yu Xian broadcasts his ironmaking every day, and he seems to be growing younger. Not to mention other parts, there is not even a callus on his hand holding the hammer.

A man in his thirties who looks so young, he must be a eunuch...

Yu Xian didn't care. In the mission world, there was no need to say much about the court lackeys and eunuchs. Later in The Sword of Blood and Jade and The Deer and the Cauldron, he was scolded even more harshly for digging up the roots of scholars.

Back to the nickname of "Chief Eunuch", it was just a joke among netizens about my appearance. After explaining myself a few times, I just accepted it.

While he was working silently, the barrage of comments became lively.

"Why didn't the anchor continue? What's the point of being a blacksmith? The brothers just want to hear you brag!"

"Please note that Eunuch Yu's main job is the Minister of War and the eunuch in charge of the Armory Bureau. If you want to listen to crosstalk, please buy tickets at the teahouse next door!"

"Um, let me remind you that the host is currently making a custom Han sword for the top guy on the list, and he cannot be distracted."

"Tsk, you sound like you know that."

"Before you speak, please look at my sign first."

"Hello, Brother Bang Yida! Goodbye, Brother Bang Yida!"

"Tyrant, let's be friends!"

"Brother upstairs, they are a provincial museum, not a wealthy man!"

……

Yu Xian was indeed creating a Han Dynasty sword for a museum to display. He originally didn't want to take the job, because the earliest mission world he had experienced was when the Northern Song Dynasty was about to fall, and he didn't even know what a Han Dynasty sword looked like, so how could he possibly replicate it?

Fortunately, there was relevant information in the communicator, so I asked them to allow me to make subsequent bows and crossbows and firearms. As long as they agreed to make bows and crossbows and primitive firearms such as matchlocks and flintlocks, I would make a replica of the Han sword for them.

The museum wanted to pay for it at first, but after hearing about this cost-saving condition, they agreed after consultation. However, they made a requirement that the weapons produced could only be handed over to the museum for disposal.

Yu Xian only wanted traffic, so he had to give away the stuff he had created. He was the Minister of War, not an outlaw, so why did he keep those things? In order to create enough hype, the museum simply spent money to get the first place on the list.

Yu Xian was working as a blacksmith in a peaceful time, but the internet became a little lively because of this remark.

He is now considered a somewhat famous anchor, and his words usually hurt people's feelings, so the opening remarks of this live broadcast were quickly edited out.

The topic of Chinese men’s romance was pinned to the top.

"What the anchor said is too cowardly. We are conservatives!" A social animal who was slacking off disagreed with Yu Xian's words.

"Brother, you're always calling for war and killing, and you seem to be at odds with those people who live a good life. And you say you are a conservative?" The colleague next to him teased with contempt.

"What do you know? His words are too conservative! The romance of contemporary Chinese men is, of course, horses stepping on cherry blossoms."

"I agree with this, come and take one!"

"Goji berry tea, what the hell! Switch to white!"

……

When the sun went down, Yu Xian also put down his hammer and took a rest. He had been busy all day, but he had not yet completed the folding and forging steps. After putting away all the tools, he took off his apron and hung it aside, then went into the kitchen to cook.

Life is very simple for one person, and the dish and soup were ready soon. Yu Xian ate in the yard while watching Douyin.

"Hello! Unromantic Chinese man!"

An SUV stopped at the gate, and a young girl jumped out from the driver's seat and stood in the yard with a smile on her face. She was wearing simple but not cheap clothes.

"Hello! An innocent girl who likes to fantasize!" Yu Xian responded bluntly.

"Is this how you welcome guests?" The girl was a little frustrated.

"The communicator on your wrist is not disguised well. If you are a guest, shouldn't you introduce yourself first?" Yu Xian complained incoherently while taking a bite of rice.

"Dad, I'm Chen Caiwei!" the girl said shockingly.

"Pfft..." Yu Xian was so irritated by her words that he sprayed all over the table.

"I'm Chen Caiwei, Xiao Taohua! You won't have forgotten, right?" Chen Caiwei hurried over and pulled out a bunch of tissues to wipe the table clean.

"No, how did you find me? And don't call me dad, I'm not your dad!" Yu Xian finally calmed down.

"Your live broadcast! Today, many fairies said that you are a dirty man and said they would sue you! Now everyone is cursing you under your video." Chen Caiwei poured herself a glass of water.

After all, they have been together for more than 20 years, so there is no strangeness between them.

"You still haven't talked about the main business, or are you the new contact person?" Yu Xian didn't want to reminisce about the past, mainly because it was too strange that she could find him.

"Dad, don't you want to know how I left the world of The Return of the Condor Heroes?" Chen Caiwei blinked her big watery eyes and indicated.

If you don't continue asking, we won't be able to continue the conversation today, you old man.

"Tell me! What happened in the end?" Yu Xian had no choice but to surrender.

"Later, I rethought the story line. When Xiangyang City fell, I wanted to rescue Guo Polu, but his whole family was determined to die. They only allowed me to take Guo Polu's two children away." Chen Caiwei recalled the tragic fall of Xiangyang City and her tone was a little depressed.

"I came here this time because I was recommended by your full-time contact No. 9527. There is a rather troublesome task that I can't do alone." Chen Caiwei stared at Yu Xian with shining eyes.

"What mission?" Yu Xian felt uneasy when he was looked at.

"Shenhua, I am Lu Su in it." Chen Caiwei felt a little guilty.

"What the hell! The myth of Qin Shi Huang and Han Wudi?" Yu Xian was a little scared.

If I receive an order to reproduce a Han sword, I will go to the Qin and Han Dynasties. If someone customizes a bronze sword or something, I will definitely be criticized in the Investiture of the Gods! My martial arts skills are awesome, but that is a mythological world, which is even worse than the martial arts world, not even talking about Newton, Hawking, Einstein, etc.

Chen Caiwei nodded guiltily: "Dad, please help Xiao Taohua! Okay!"

"Ah..., where did you learn this bad habit? Put it away immediately!" Yu Xian got goose bumps all over his body.

"Okay, Dad!"

"What dad? Are you using me as a golden finger?"
