Chapter Seventy-Six, Cold Light Jade
"What? Is it hard to get materials?"
As soon as Feng Liang heard Chen Zhiyuan say that there were only these twenty, the expression on his face immediately changed, and a bunch of folds wrinkled into his brows.
"That's not either, the main reason is that I've been a little busy lately, and as you know, the sect has recently had some cooperation with the Imperial Spirit Sect, and we refiners have been assigned some work. ”
"Well, this is also a problem, is Master Yuan arranged to work a lot? Is there someone who makes braids for you? It's okay, boldly tell me, don't be afraid, our Nanshan Sect has never been afraid of someone reacting to problems, and if there is a problem, it must be solved, so that the sect can become strong!"
"That's not it, Master Ouyang takes good care of me, my work is quite simple, that is, the amount is relatively large, everyone is the same, mine is quite easy, that is, I have to work for two months at the earliest. ”
Listening to Chen Zhiyuan's words, Feng Liang's face immediately changed from frowning to surprised.
"Two months! How can it be so long, are they exploiting? They want you to work for two months in a row!"
It's interesting to watch someone change their face, especially when the person's facial expression is still very rich and exaggerated, but of course, if the person's cultivation is much higher than yours, and he is on your shoulder, that's another story.
"It's not been a long time, we still have money to take it, it's considered voluntary. ”
"Oh my God! It would be voluntary! Then we'll give you some more money, twenty gold each, can you get rid of their lives and take us?"
"I'm afraid it can't, this is the task of the sect, it's not that we don't want to accept it, and I don't have the materials to do this cold and fiery cyan jade for the time being. ”
When Feng Liang heard this, the expression on his face suddenly turned into a look of regret, and he sighed a few times, and kept saying, "It's a pity, it's a pity..."
Feng Liang just put his arm on Chen Zhiyuan's shoulder, and kept saying "It's a pity", repeating it more than a dozen times in a row without stopping, Chen Zhiyuan began to wonder if he accidentally fell into the illusion, after all, the illusion and various formations of Nanshan Gate are good.
At this time, a person suddenly flew in from outside the wall, but it looked more like a jump, not like flying, after all, Chen Zhiyuan had experienced flying, so he could naturally distinguish it.
The person who came was three points like Feng Liang, and as soon as the man came in, he said:
"Feng Liang, go down, your work is done, you can go and rest. ”
Feng Liang, who was holding Chen Zhiyuan's shoulder, stopped saying "pity" when he heard this, and the expression on his face changed from regret to happiness, so he directly gave up Chen Zhiyuan and ran towards the back of the outer hall without looking back.
"I'm sorry, his brain is a little abnormal, I'll talk to you next, my name is Feng Yu, you can call him whatever you want. ”
Although this person named Feng Yu was obviously also a condensing vein cultivator, Chen Zhiyuan felt that he suddenly relaxed a lot, probably because he was finally able to talk to normal people?
"He..."
"I'm sorry, I don't have anything to say about him, so let's move on to the icy cyan jade you just talked about. ”
"Okay. ”
After all, it is someone else's home field, and it is higher than his own cultivation, Chen Zhiyuan didn't dare to ask more.
"Senior Feng Liang just said that you can buy my recipe for this Ice Flame Cyan Jade, and you have to buy the rest of the ones in my hand together. ”
"Okay, I know the roughly, just fifteen gold, twenty three low-grade spirit stones, one medium-grade formula, if we can, we can also continue to order from you, just give a hundred pieces every month, the price is a little lower, how about it?"
After thinking about it for a while, Chen Zhiyuan felt that it was feasible, after all, this thing is not too difficult to do, and if you pay attention to it, you can probably know how it came about, and you can still make some money while you have just taken it out now, so you can sell it.
took out the refining method that had already been written, plus the twenty pieces in his hand, and the one that was blown up was blown up, and Chen Zhiyuan decisively handed it over to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu did not procrastinate, and at the same time handed over the prepared spirit stone to Chen Zhiyuan's hands.
"Since we already have the formula, Master Yuan doesn't mind if we change the name of it, right?"
"Don't mind, don't mind, you're free. ”
The name was thought of by Chen Zhiyuan on the spot, and it didn't have any technical content at all, if Feng Yu could give it a good name, Chen Zhiyuan would have no opinion.
"How about calling it cold light jade? After all, judging from the situation just now, cold air and bright light are its most obvious characteristics. ”
"Actually, there was still fire at the moment it first exploded, and the temperature was also very high, but it was covered by the cold afterwards... However, the cold light jade is also very good, and it is also confusing. ”
Chen Zhiyuan originally wanted to emphasize the power of the Flame of Ice and Fire, but thinking about it, the formula has been given, and people can call it whatever they want.
"Well, then so be it, Master Yuan's cold light jade is not sold elsewhere, right?"
"No, no, this Master Ouyang can testify that I was the first to come here. ”
"That's good, that's good, then we're exclusive. ”
"But I have a question for you. ”
Chen Zhiyuan thought about it, and decided to leave the matter of finding materials to Feng Yu to have a headache, he could only charge a processing fee, anyway, if he had a job, he would have money, and he didn't have to spend so much trouble finding the eggs of the toothed lizard.
"You say. ”
"It's the material of this cold light jade, mainly to use the eggshell of the tusked lizard, and I haven't found a replacement yet, so the material will have to trouble you. ”
"Toothed lizards. ”
Feng Yu touched his chin and groaned for a moment, thinking about the information of the light tusked lizard, and then spoke:
"This is no problem, we will solve the material But in this case, the price will be lower, a piece of hardware, how about it?"
This knife is a bit much, but Chen Zhiyuan also knows that the only difficulty of this cold light jade is the material, if you have flames of different attributes, you can still get it with some effort, just like Ouyang Yushui, slowly there is only one flame, but you can get a variety of flames to test the eggshell.
"Yes, that's fine. ”
"Then it's a pleasure to work with. ”
Chen Zhiyuan and Feng Yu's faces showed knowing smiles at the same time, and they invariably stretched out a hand and shook it together.
The matter of materials is solved, and the remaining hundred cold light jade a month is not a problem.
Taking advantage of the fact that the materials of the cold light jade had not arrived now, Chen Zhiyuan hurried back to the refining room to work hard.
The sect's twenty green rainbows and scabbards every month are still unavoidable, as well as the thousand puppet accessories of the Imperial Spirit Gate, plus the cold light jade that the outer hall needs now, Chen Zhiyuan has to use up almost full time in a month before he can get busy.
If you want to make yourself not too tired, you have to find an apprentice to help, although Chen Zhiyuan is not qualified to recruit apprentices, but it is still possible to find an apprentice to be a helper, of course, you have to give money.
Looking at the familiar figure outside the door, Chen Zhiyuan thought about it and opened the door.
"He Yuan, are you interested in being my helper?"
"Can I?"
The apprentice who was called out was taken aback, and the people next to him also had envious eyes.
"Of course, what, don't you want to?"
Chen Zhiyuan shouted the apprentice who came to borrow his refining room, although his talent was a little worse, but he was very practical, Chen Zhiyuan was more at ease with him.
"Of course I do, I really do. ”
From the disbelief at the beginning, to the joy now, He Yuan hurriedly agreed to Chen Zhiyuan, after all, being a helper means that he has more opportunities to practice, and he can also get in touch with things related to refining.
"Then come here, and I'll tell you what you want. ”
Seeing He Yuan happily walking towards him, Chen Zhiyuan nodded silently in his heart, the apprentice's business was done.
There are not too many things to ask the apprentice to help, just like what Chen Zhiyuan did at the beginning, the apprentice mainly helps to pull the bellows, as well as the preliminary refining of materials, so that he can save himself a lot of time and spiritual power, and what he has to do is to refine and process these rough materials.
"Do you get in shape?"
Having been a master and an apprentice, Chen Zhiyuan naturally knew what the apprentice wanted to do the most, and Chen Zhiyuan was not a person who liked to hide and tuck, he was willing to let the apprentice get more hands.
"I've learned a few times, but it's not very good. ”
He Yuan was a little embarrassed, after all, he had just arrived, and he didn't dare to take over so many things that Chen Zhiyuan had given him.
"It's okay, you can try it, and you can do it later if you can. ”
"Okay, I'll try. ”
He Yuan laboriously pulled the bellows, he was still only in the late stage of Qi training, and he was still a little short of Chen Zhiyuan's foundation at the beginning, so it was still very difficult to do this.
Chen Zhiyuan helped throw the dark iron ore into it, and then carefully refined it, and his movements were slowed down as much as possible, because he knew that He Yuan must be watching his own operation just like himself at that time.
After the molten iron was smelted, Chen Zhiyuan took it out directly, and after continuous kneading, he also used his own true fire to further refine it, and finally became a soft semi-solidified molten iron, Chen Zhiyuan took advantage of the fact that it had not cooled down, put it back into the refining furnace to maintain this state, and turned his head to He Yuan.
"Let's try it. ”
With Chen Zhiyuan's permission, He Yuan was also much bolder and began to shape the molten iron.
Chen Zhiyuan's molten iron is the amount of three handfuls of Qinghong, so the first difficulty He Yuan has to face is to divide the part he wants.
Without real fire, and without Chen Zhiyuan's high resistance, He Yuan could only use stupid methods to separate the molten iron.
Taking the hook and long scissors, and putting on protective gloves, He Yuan carefully hooked the ball of molten iron in the furnace, and then found the right position, and cut and separated the piece he wanted little by little.
This step was relatively easy, but it was a little troublesome when taking it out, He Yuan carefully hooked the cut ball of molten iron, and while rotating the hook to prevent it from slipping off, he quickly and smoothly transferred it to the anvil.
The next step is the shaping process, if you give Chen Zhiyuan or Ouyang Yushui to operate, they can directly get started, while controlling the temperature of the molten iron to keep it soft, while pinching it into the shape they want with their hands, and then letting it cool and set, and finally slowly adjusting.
However, this kind of operation can't be done here in He Yuan, the reason is still that, he doesn't have real fire, and his resistance is not enough.
The molten iron on the anvil was an oval-shaped mass, and while it was cooling, He Yuan had to constantly beat it from all directions, slowly knocking it into a long strip, and then flattening it into the shape of a knife.
He Yuan was busy sweating profusely, the hammer in his hand kept swinging, and the clanging sound never stopped.
Although He Yuan was very serious and hardworking, Chen Zhiyuan's brows couldn't help frowning.
It was too slow, He Yuan's movements were still too slow, and he couldn't keep up with the speed at which the molten iron solidified, and by the time the molten iron couldn't be beaten, he hadn't been able to completely shape it.
He Yuan's slowness is not that his movements are really slow, but that his strength is too small, and he often has to smash three or four times to meet the demand.
Until the end, the molten iron was completely solidified, and He Yuan failed to complete the shaping, originally expected to be made into a knife, but now it is only made into a long stick.
Looking at his works, He Yuan's face couldn't help but rise, and a touch of shame also appeared in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I failed. ”
