Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Lead Blacksmith

The sky was about to dawn, Yang Li stayed in the first layer of the Heaven Replenishing Stone all night, in the follow-up time, of course, he learned a lot of practical techniques from his cousin's refining practice, of course, but time passed very quickly, he still had to go to work this morning, and he also hoped to learn a little tempering method from Ah San.

This is an alternative tempering method that is different from his cousin's one-eye forging method, so he only rested a little in the first layer of the mending stone, and it was only a little running for a week, and he immediately became fierce, and followed his cousin to the blacksmith shop with a hundred times more energy.

Along the way, my cousin shook his head, which was still a little dizzy, and tilted his head to ask Yang Li if he said something he shouldn't have said after he was drunk. Yang Li said no, but Ah San still didn't believe it, and in the subsequent process of walking all the way, he didn't say a word.

Yang Li felt this injustice in his heart, he didn't eat mutton and made a fuss, if he got the prescription of the potion, he really didn't get it, but he was guarded against by Ah San in his heart.

When he came to the door of the blacksmith shop, Yang Li felt that something was wrong. I saw that the door number was covered with red and green, and the middle door that had not been opened was also opened at this moment, is there some kind of big man coming?

Yang Li thought as he followed Ah San into the side door inside. When he came to the courtyard, he found that the men around him, often bare-chested, were covered with a dress, the upper body was a sleeveless short placket, dark black color, and the white flower's shoulders were missing, which made Yang Li a little uncomfortable, and then he found that it was no wonder that Ah San also wore a shirt, but fortunately, Yang Li had never been bare-chested, so there was nothing to worry about, he was wearing clothes even when he was working in front of the workbench.

Because he has never worked topless like other workers, others secretly give him the nickname Xiao Niangpi, because they don't know that Yang Li has cultivation, this bit of heat is nothing to him, where does Yang Li need to be like them, sweating to earn a little money. Because he studied here, Yang Li pretended not to know about it, turned a deaf ear, and turned a blind eye.

Therefore, it gets along with the workers here in a relatively harmonious way, everyone greets each other with a smile, and will say hello or two before returning home from work.

There must be something big going on, Yang Li can keenly perceive it without releasing his divine sense, in the courtyard, a white middle-aged man is sitting on the chair where the big shopkeeper often sits, and the big shopkeeper is standing on the side with a nod and a waist, and he doesn't even dare to make a sound.

"He is the big boss behind Gale Forging, and he is our big boss. ”

"He looks really white, with fine skin and tender meat, I'm afraid that only Yang Li can compare with him. ”

Then there was a small laugh, and Yang Li also laughed quietly, not caring at all.

The shopkeeper couldn't stand up a little when he saw this situation, he cleared his throat and said loudly: "This is our owner, and the monthly salary we pay is given by his old man." ”

After introducing the owner, the shopkeeper said: "A few days ago, everyone worked hard to make a batch of knives and guns, which have been handed over to the prince, because our craftsmanship has passed the test and the weapons made are of high quality, so the prince is happy and has added a batch of orders." ”

Bai Jingdong, who was sitting on the Taishi's chair, waved his hand slowly, and easily interrupted the speech of the big shopkeeper, he put the teacup on the coffee table on the side, and then straightened his body, straightened his waist and said:

"I heard from your big shopkeeper here, you have been building weapons continuously in the past few days, and you have made great efforts and sweated profusely. Today I made a special trip to visit, and by the way, I brought some wine and meat, and when you finished work, you will each get a copy back. ”

Before the owner's words could be heard, a group of workers shouted and cheered in unison, and the sound was as loud as the sound of iron. Everyone still remembers that only during the New Year's holiday will the owner have such generosity, although today although I know that there are important things waiting for everyone, it may be extremely difficult, but today after all, I heard good news, so the big guy is happy and excited.

The shopkeeper was also very happy, he waved his hand vigorously at everyone, and shouted: "Don't quarrel, everyone, the owner still has something to say! Don't quarrel!

The big guy had a smile on his face, but he soon fell silent, listening carefully to what the owner below would say. I guess there should be something important to arrange for everyone, right? Everyone is looking forward to who will spend such an honor!

The owner of the white and pure house stood up at this time, and then pressed down with both palms facing down, signaling everyone to stay quiet and not to speak. He said in a high tone:

"Our Gale Forging is famous, relying on excellent quality and your excellent technology. So just now the shopkeeper said, the prince also wants to add a batch of weapons orders, this time the order is a big knife, it has to be a soldier, the quality requirements are very high, and it will be delivered in a month. Therefore, today we need the skilled craftsmen among you to sign up enthusiastically, and complete the project as soon as possible to serve the imperial court!"

Ah San heard that it was a soldier to build, although he had heard a little wind before, so he had adjusted the potion for refining the soldier early, and he also brought some today, but when he heard that he wanted such a weapon, he didn't feel that the back of his neck was a little cold.

He knew that although the person who was selected to build such a sharp weapon would receive a high salary in the future, when he was lucky, he might be selected by the royal family to be the master of the forger within the palace, and after entering, he would specialize in building weapons for the palace guards, and the income would be the same as heaven and earth.

But if it is not built, the prince will move his mouth, and his own head will have to move, so there is a saying among the blacksmiths, which is called: If you want to get ahead, go to fight soldiers, and if you want to turn around, go to fight soldiers. The center is sour and self-explanatory.

But Yang Li didn't know these inside information, he saw that after the big guy heard the words of the owner, he was like a frosted eggplant, all of a sudden wilted, and he lowered his head under the gaze of the big shopkeeper, and no one wanted to take this risk. Yang Li lined up the crowd and took a few steps forward from behind, and said with a smile:

"The proprietor, the shopkeeper, I, Yang Li, am willing to build soldiers. ”

"You?!"

The owner obviously has no image of this little white face who has only been here for a few days, and feels that Yang Li's skin is whiter than his own, if he wasn't standing in the craftsman's pile, outsiders would still think that he is the young shopkeeper of the owner's house?

"His name is Yang Li, and he came the day before yesterday to ......"

The shopkeeper observed the words and expressions on the side, knowing that the owner might not know Yang Li, so he introduced it in a low voice, and deliberately exaggerated the matter of Yang Li kneading the iron with his hands that day, and the owner also looked a little sideways.

He walked up to Yang Li step by step with some disbelief, looked Yang Li up and down a few times, and then instructed the big shopkeeper to bring a big iron block and asked Yang Li to perform for him on the spot.

Of course, Yang Li was not modest, and with his strength, he kneaded the big iron pieces like small dough, so he split them with one hand and directly split the big iron pieces in two.

"Good divine power!" Although the big shopkeeper was standing in the distance, he still saw the imperceptible joy on the owner's face for the first time, and felt that he liked Yang Li's performance very much, so he was the first to stand up and cheer, even if he slapped the sycophant to the point, he quietly praised his eyes.

Because Gale Forging is not only this processing place, according to the big shopkeeper secretly understands, only they have a genius like Yang Li in this place, if Yang Li finally trains a peerless soldier, then he, the big shopkeeper, will definitely get a richer reward, but if Yang Li misses, there is no responsibility for him.

Because Yang Li volunteered to do the work, he wanted to lose his head and lose Yang Li's head, and it would be okay for him to be scolded by the owner at most, so this "good" also drank the joy in his heart.

"Yes, yes, yes.

I can't imagine that we have a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger here, and even such a young man can have such divine powers, good!"

The owner praised him repeatedly, so Yang Li voluntarily signed up to participate in the creation of soldiers.

After him, perhaps inspired by Yang Li, two or three groups of people have registered, and Yang Li's registration method is different, they are all the leading blacksmiths of this group to sign up, and Yang Li's group of leading blacksmiths is clearly Ah San, Yang Li actually took his own initiative to register without his permission, which is beyond the unwritten rules in blacksmithing.

No wonder Yang Li felt that after he signed up, Ah San's expression was a little strange. Afterwards, Ah Sanzhi complained to Yang Li, saying that he didn't discuss such a big matter with him, so he signed up in a daze, and made their group have a big job in the future, so I don't know if the final result will be satisfactory.

How did Yang Li know that his signing up was equivalent to the people in their group joining it, so he could only apologize when he heard this, but he wanted not to sign up, and he really couldn't learn the real thing. You think, if it weren't for such high pressure, who would have done all kinds of things. Therefore, Yang Li was still looking forward to the day when forging soldiers would come one day sooner.

"Today is a big day, we have 4 groups of people who have signed up to forge soldiers. But the prince wants a lot of weapons, I'm afraid there are still not enough people, please ask the big shopkeeper to arrange some good blacksmiths. "The owner saw that there was still a gap between the required manpower, so he called the direct arrangement of the big shopkeeper.

In the end, several groups of blacksmiths were chosen, and their faces suddenly fell, and they stood there reluctantly, not knowing why.

After the big shopkeeper saw that the owner was satisfied with the manpower, he cleared his voice again and announced loudly: "Please Master Zu!" Yang Li still heard for the first time that there was an ancestor who struck iron, so he stared at the platform in front of him without blinking, where is there a statue that protrudes like a human shape, it is estimated that it is the statue of Master Zu.

Next, Yang Li didn't know that after he looked at the statue of the ancestor master, he was so surprised that he almost didn't shout. The big red satin covering the body of the ancestor was faded little by little by the two strong men, and the voice and smile of the ancestor slowly appeared in front of everyone.

"This is the ancestor of our blacksmith, after his old man brought us to the Gale Capital, in order to give us a means of survival, so he passed on what he learned in his life to future generations. Under the inheritance and teaching of his old man, although all of us disciples and grandchildren are not rich in food and clothing, they are also rich in food and clothing. It's all up to your old man's bounty!"

The proprietor took the lead and knelt down and shouted. The big shopkeeper next to him acted as the master of ceremonies, and hurriedly beckoned everyone to shout the last sentence together.

"It's all up to your old man's gift!" shouted in unison as a large group of disciples knelt down in front of the statue.

"Ancestor bless me, quench the fire as soon as possible, become a soldier in the sky, and the world will not grind!" the owner led everyone to shout together.

"The ancestor bless me, quench the fire as soon as possible, become a soldier in nature, and the world will not grind!" such a sentence "burns" in the flame-monstrous courtyard,

It makes people unconsciously excited, and the fighting spirit is excited.

"Ancestor bless me, quench as soon as possible" Yang Li can still understand, which is nothing more than to say that the weapon will be built as soon as possible.

However, the sentence "Heavenly soldiers, the world is not grinding!" This sentence made Yang Li unable to figure it out, and under the explanation of Ah San beside him, he realized that it was originally said that the soldiers were a gift from God to everyone, and they were sacred weapons that could be met but not sought, and they were uncertain, because they were incomparably sharp, so they did not need to ponder on the whetstone after several generations.

This is not the most difficult place for Yang Li to understand, when he raised his head and looked at the ancestral master, he found that the appearance of the ancestral master seemed to have been seen somewhere, he took the opportunity to insert incense in front of the ancestral master's incense burner in turn, and took a closer look at the ancestral master's appearance again.

Yang Li felt that his sword eyebrows were starry, and the bridge of his nose was straight, and then he suddenly realized that this ancestor was seven or eight points similar to his current appearance, and even the killing aura revealed between his eyebrows and eyes was also secretly in line with his inner temperament and charm.

Yang Li stood firmly on the spot, and he didn't even see the gesture of Ah San in front of him to leave quickly and not to cause trouble in front of the ancestor master, he just felt that this ancestor looked like him, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, so he couldn't move his feet on the spot.

Perhaps the big shopkeeper who was watching the ceremony found out about this abnormal behavior, he hurriedly walked in front of Yang Li, wanting to pull him away, the big shopkeeper didn't want to be ominous on the big day of worshiping the ancestors.

To hold such a large-scale meeting to worship the ancestors, he took out a full set of skills, for fear that something would go wrong in the middle of a trivial link, and what is even worse is that in order to hold this grand meeting to worship the ancestors, he produced wine and meat, and even offered three animals in front of the ancestors.

If this is not done well, if something goes wrong during the warring soldiers, don't say that the owner will not spare him, even the prince is not easy to explain the past, so he saw Yang Li as if he had a stroke, staying there like a demon, not moving, and his heart was extremely anxious, so he hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to drag Yang Li back. But he never thought that Yang Li looked white and pure, whiter and more tender than the Dongjia family, but he was as solid as iron stone in his tentacles. Not to mention that he was able to drag Yang Li to the back.

"Hmm!" the proprietor, who had been on the throne for a long time and had not spoken a word, opened his mouth at this time, and he snorted from his nose, and then waved his hand at the big treasurer, signaling him to stand down.

The big shopkeeper also knew that the owner was practicing in a cultivation sect, although the level was not high, but he also had the cultivation of the first level of concentrating, so he retreated boldly with confidence, thinking that you Yang Li toasted and did not eat and drink, don't look at the ease of chopping iron like crushing clods of soil before, but it is just a bit of brute force, although it looks good, but after all, it is useless.

Thinking that Yang Li was about to suffer at the hands of the monk, the big shopkeeper unconsciously laughed secretly in his heart.

The big shopkeeper still remembers that Yang Li resolutely asked for the rent subsidy that day, and it hurts when he thinks about it, although there are only a few Huoyun coins a little bit, but it adds up a lot, if other blacksmiths follow suit, wouldn't Daita Forging want to drink the northwest wind?!

The big shopkeeper was stealing pleasure and quickly stepped aside. And the owner has already deceived himself in front of Yang Li, he grabbed Yang Li's neck collar, and wanted to drag him back, although this young man took the lead in registering first, alleviating his worries that he thought he couldn't recruit manpower, but in front of the interests of Gale Forging, everything is nothing, so he wants to take Yang Li out of here first, and then clean him up when there is no one, isn't it just a stinky and sweaty blacksmith?

has no identity and no background, no money, as the owner, he is too lazy to take their eyes on weekdays, if he can't draw profits from their stinky sweat, he won't come here early in the morning without sleeping, and if he doesn't care about the stinky blacksmiths under him, I'm afraid they are really going to turn the sky.

However, as soon as the owner came up and touched Yang Li's seemingly delicate skin with his palm, he was a little surprised, because he seemed to have touched the diamond iron arm, and no matter how much he urged the Yuan Force in his body, he just couldn't pull the young man for half a point.

Yang Li was still standing there unconsciously, his eyes widened, and he looked at the face of his ancestor motionlessly.

Finally, he remembered that the face of the ancestor was nine points similar to the shadow of his father he had seen before, and then remembered that his father had cultivated an eightfold and eight-soul body, and it was estimated that one of the souls that his father had trained was the soul of refining.

Yang Li Dengden suddenly took several steps backwards, and even the unlucky Concentration Beginner Cultivator also floated back a few steps with him, if Yang Li hadn't finally stood firm, he would probably have to be taken away several feet away.

So that's how it was!

Father must have been here, and became the originator of the blacksmith here, so everyone respects him so much, not only to worship him on holidays, but also to worship him at the beginning of major training activities, no wonder his mother said that his father is very powerful, but it turned out to be even more famous under the fame, Yang Li thought of this, and unconsciously stepped forward a few steps, and bowed down with the contemplative monk.

The owner almost didn't knock his head, but he was caught off guard and fell to the ground with a "bang", looking very embarrassed, and in front of the big guy, in front of many stinkers who were despised by him, his lungs were about to explode, but he was still steady enough.

Because at the moment when he fell, he reached out his divine sense to probe Yang Li's cultivation, although he could sense the surging Yuan Force aura on Yang Lizhou's body, he couldn't see through Yang Li's cultivation.

So he secretly gasped unconsciously, thinking to himself that he didn't know which sect sent such a big master here to test their strength in building weapons, but he didn't want to find out, after finding out, he must use the forces behind him to suppress Yang Li.

However, this has to be considered in the long run, and it is by no means something that can be done overnight, especially Yang Li's cultivation is profound, I am afraid that he will break his heel if he sneezes, so he immediately got up and stood, and even pushed aside the big shopkeeper who wanted to help him pat the dust on his body, and he just shook the dust on his body and drifted away. Then the proprietor stood aside, stared coldly, and said nothing.

Only the poor shopkeeper looked at all this, where would he think about it, painstakingly, and made countless calculations to invite Yang Li, the great blacksmith, at an extremely low price, but ruined his good deeds in the good days of worshipping the ancestors, he didn't blame the others, only blamed himself for being blind that day, and recruited Yang Li in a daze.

Even the owner, who was as powerful as an immortal in his eyes, was not able to subdue his arrogance. The shopkeeper sighs and sighs.

Of course, Yang Li sensed that the owner was pulling him, although he had been paying close attention to his father's statue, but he relied on his advanced cultivation, and was not afraid of the owner and the big shopkeeper in his eyes, not to mention that the owner pulled him to use the Yuan Force that could only be used by fighting between monks, which made him very unhappy in his heart.

Therefore, he deliberately used the strength of his physical strength to throw the early stage monk of Condensation into a backward and backward without using the Yuan Force, without any scruples. He thought that since his father could make a name for himself in the fire, he would have to follow in his father's footsteps and do something earth-shattering here, and if he couldn't do that, he felt that he couldn't face his dead father and mother.

At the moment when Yang Li and the statue were closest to each other, the owner felt that this humanoid monster, which was as hard as iron, was so similar to the statue of the ancestor who was high up in the sky. They are all sword eyebrows and starry eyes, the bridge of the nose is towering, the handsome is full of killing spirit, and the killing is full of peace, which is really a contradiction of unity and unity.

"Where are you from, who are you?! How do you look so similar to Master Zu?! It's not really coming. ”

It was the Contemplative Junior Monk who spoke, of course he knew that the strength of the other party was unfathomable, so he grabbed an iron-core spear from the side, and with a flick of his hand, 12 spear flowers danced, and a strong wind blew in the courtyard, making all the rough men a little unstable on their feet.

The young owner glanced at the big shopkeeper at the same time, and the big shopkeeper hurriedly slowly retreated backwards, and suddenly turned around and strode out during the time he was close to the courtyard gate, he wanted to hurry out to find help to help the owner capture Yang Li, a person of unknown origin.
