Chapter 1 The Boy in the Refining Room
"Bell, bell, bell...."
In a slightly rudimentary house, there was a crisp sound of striking iron. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
The iron striker was a delicate young man, his eyes were not big but flashed a trace of agility, and beads of sweat appeared between his eyebrows, only to see him swinging a hammer weighing nearly 100 catties, every time he swung the hammer and fell, he would exhale, and then smashed on a red-hot sword held by the iron tongs in his left hand, making a sound of iron and stone hitting each other.
"888, 889, 890" The teenager counted silently in his heart, and kept beating, at this time he was already sweating profusely, sweat soaked through his clothes, and his back was even wetter, yes, the teenager had been beaten hundreds of times.
When he had counted to 900 strokes, an old man in rags stopped him from striking again, flicked the iron tongs in his left hand, and lowered the crimson blade into the pool of water beside him.
Sneer...
Bursts of white mist rolled out, and the young man took a deep breath, put the hammer on the table, and muttered to himself, "900, there are still 100 strokes left, and this time I failed again." β
"Yi'er, you are already very good, I am very pleased that you have been insisting, but everything cannot be forced. If you wield a few more hammers just now, the sword will be useless, and the previous efforts will be in vain, remember, do everything according to your ability, come, look at the sword you have tempered. After speaking, the old man took out the sword that had been immersed in the pool.
The sword is four inches long, the blade is smooth, the blade is sharp, there is no doubt that it is a good sword, if anyone else is here, it will be shocking, but it is the handwriting of a young man.
"The degree of perseverance is eighty into eight, and it is only one step away from the top-grade weapon, Xiaoyi. The old man touched his beard and smiled.
"But I still can't meet Grandpa Shan's standards, and I have been tempered to a thousand. The boy crawled to the ground, not satisfied with this achievement, but his actions also proved that he could no longer swing the hammer.
"Contented stinky boy, in three years, he has gone from a little kid who doesn't even know about refining weapons to a little mortal-level refiner, which is already remarkable. The old man blew his beard and glared.
"I don't want to be a useless person, even if I can't practice martial arts, I must be the best refiner, even the lowest refiner. Xiao Yi touched the sword he had built, and his eyes burned.
This old man is the one who raised him for 11 years, Xiao Yi can not live up to his expectations, when Xiao Yi was eight years old, he was checked out by the Qin family that he did not have a dantian and could not be promoted to the condensation realm to become a martial artist, originally he was on the genealogy, but even Qin Xing was crossed out, deprived of his identity, he was decadent for a long time, but this old man suddenly built a refining shop in a period of time, and let Xiao Yi follow his surname, because his Yi character was given by the old man, and then the old man's refining skills were attracted, and it has been three years, and he still has not become a martial artist in three years, but he has learned a hot skill, that is, refiningγ Lingyan Continent has always been respected by martial arts, and the more important thing is the quality of weapons, the refiner industry is fragrant and spicy, Xiao Yi feels that he can't be a martial artist, and it's not bad to be a refiner, but he can only be a mortal-level refiner for life.
Next to a relatively prosperous street in Qinglan City, just an hour later, the cries of selling one after another sounded, showing the prosperity of Qinglan City.
I saw a dirty woman, holding a six or seven-year-old girl begging on the side of the street, and suddenly a boy in a brocade robe tripped by the woman's heel, and his attendants helped the boy up. When the boy stood up and patted the dust on his clothes, he saw that he was knocked down by a beggar, and immediately became angry, kicked the bowl of the woman's rice away, and scolded: "You female beggar, dare to trip Uncle Ben, you are tired of it!" Raise her leg and kick, the woman fell directly to the ground, looking very weak, the girl next to her was crying while holding the woman's arm, a pair of big eyes with hatred, staring at the girl, after the girl saw it, not only did not feel guilty, but did not give up, took out her hand, and wanted to hit the girl.
Xiao Yi just walked to the street, he saw this scene, and suddenly rushed here, a sweep, this gentleman did not expect that someone would stumble on him, and suddenly made his body unbalanced, and he threw himself on the ground and ate a mouthful of dust.
"Who should I be, it turned out to be Li Wei, who couldn't even memorize the three-character scripture, and actually bullied orphans and widows," Xiao Yi knew this gentleman, it was Li Wei, a disciple of the Li family who went to private school with him in the past, and he knew this Li Wei quite well, relying on himself to be the second young master of the Li family since he was a child, and he had nothing to do all day long, cynicism.
He got up with the support of his entourage, looking embarrassed, and was very annoyed when he saw Xiao Yi, "Qin Yi, no, it should be changed to Xiao Yi now, you waste, don't be nosy." β
"I'm going to be nosy, you're going to bite me!" Xiao Yi said in a provocative tone. Then he helped the little girl to lift the frail woman, and the girl looked at Xiao Yat with grateful eyes.
Some passers-by nearby immediately gathered around curiously, and some people who were about to pass by began to talk about it.
"Obviously, this scoundrel of the Li family looks up and doesn't look at the road, this mother and daughter are really pitiful, and that young man, it turns out that he is the waste young master of the Qin family. β
"Alas, there is a Li family cover, not to mention that it is still a descendant of the lineage, this little scoundrel has been rampant in Qinglan City for a day or two, and this kid of the Qin family can't cultivate, fighting with Li Wei, he is really a stunned young man. β
Hearing the discussion of the surrounding crowd, Li Wei not only did not have any shame, but smiled evilly, only to see him wave his hand and say, "You go and teach him a lesson, just don't beat him to death." β
Hearing this, the entourage stepped out and smiled coldly, "Since Viagra has spoken, boy, you will have a good taste of the bitterness, and you will not be killed, at most you will be a cripple." β
After speaking, it was a punch, Xiao Yi's reaction was not slow, a punch to it, the fists collided together, Xiao Yi did not move, and the entourage took three steps back, although Xiao Yi did not know any skills, but his body and skin strength was real, no worse than a martial artist who had just entered the realm of condensation.
Li Wei's entourage has entered the threshold of the Condensation Realm, only half a step away from the Condensation Realm, and he usually bullies ordinary people, but against Xiao Yi, he is still a little worse in strength.
"I haven't eaten! I can't even beat a piece of waste, so don't follow me. β
This entourage is also a side disciple, following Li Wei, a descendant disciple, can get benefits and cultivation resources, thinking that he can't even beat the waste that can't be cultivated, it's not more waste than waste, how can he mix with Li Wei in the future, and then smashed his fist at Xiao Yi angrily, Xiao Yi won't give him a chance, although he has not practiced any boxing techniques, but Xiao Yi has been holding a hammer for three years, relying on his own strength to be stronger than the other party, so he shook it back, and quickly rushed forward, Xiao Yi kicked on the man, only to hear him scream, Xiao Yi kicked out more than two meters away, fell to the ground and howledγ
Before he came back to his senses, Li Wei felt as if he was dreaming, was this still Xiao Yi's waste?
"Hey, Li Wei, your dog's legs aren't very good!" Xiao Yi shook his arm, but he was also quite struggling, the punch just now, he already felt that this person had a different feeling, this was the threshold of entering the condensation realm.
With so many people watching, Li Wei couldn't bear it anymore, spit out, and actually pulled out a knife, he was a martial artist in the Condensation Realm, he was ridiculed by Xiao Yi, who was usually arrogant and domineering, how could he lose face here.
"Aren't you afraid of accidentally injuring others when you send out a weapon?" Xiao Yi saw Li Wei take out a weapon, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and when he saw a weapon, he would see blood, basically either seriously injured or dead.
"Xiao Yi, it's too late to kneel on the ground and beg for mercy now, otherwise you won't be able to blame me for hurting you. Li Wei said with a hint of threat.
"It just so happened that I refined a sword, so I will accompany you to practice. Xiao Yi took out the sword he had just tempered from the cloth towel on his back.
"Don't laugh off my big teeth, you refined this weapon, I think it was stolen!" Although Li Wei is smug, he still has eyesight, looking at Xiao Yi's sword, at least it is a medium-grade weapon, there are not many refiners in Qinglan City, and their Li family has a refiner, at most they can only refine a few medium-grade weapons, only those who have made meritorious contributions to the family will be rewarded, and usually only refine low-grade weapons for them to use, and the sword is as high as Xiao Yi's shoulder. Li Wei naturally didn't think that Xiao Yi was a refiner.
But Xiao Yi held this four-inch long sword and shot like lightning, before Li Wei could react, the knife was cut out by Xiao Yi in two sections, although Li Wei had cultivated a little fur, but he had never fought in actual combat, seeing that the weapon in his hand was cut off and withered suddenly, Xiao Yi punched Li Wei directly on the bridge of his nose and knocked it away.
"Someone who dares to hurt my Li family, who gave you the guts. At this time, a voice sounded in Xiao Yi's ears, and the moment he turned around, Xiao Yi saw a knife that flashed in the sun and slashed towards his head.
"Huh, you can dodge my knife, but this one depends on how you block it. β
A knife slashed at Xiao Yi from top to bottom, Xiao Yi instantly flashed a sense of crisis, subconsciously blocked the sword in front of him, and happened to hit the sword body, but it didn't end, his body kept leaning backwards, and then was shocked out, and the sword also came out, Xiao Yi supported the ground with his hand, but he couldn't stand up, looked at the person who made the shot, and spit blood.
"This is not the first day of the Li family, it seems that he is here to save his younger brother Li Wei, really, although he is the same father, this gap is too big, I heard that Li Jian is already the seventh level of the Qi Condensation Realm, he is only fourteen this year! Xiao Yi This kid is also unlucky enough to meet Li Jian in this situation. β
There were people around who seemed to recognize the person who made the shot, and this person turned out to be Li Wei's eldest brother, Xiao Yi's heart immediately sank to the bottom when he heard it.
"Big brother, this guy hurt me, you have to call the shots for me!" After Li Wei saw Li Jian, he got up with difficulty, came to him with a fart, and pointed at Xiao Yi with his nose bleeding.
"Since you hurt my brother and knelt down to me, I will spare you from death!" Li Jian's words are enough to show his pride and domineering.
"I, Xiao Yi, only kneel to my parents, the elders of the family, want me to kneel to you, are you worthy?" Xiao Yi laughed.
"You" Li Jian frowned slightly, Xiao Yi gave him a great contrast, it was very different from what he imagined, others would definitely kneel to him and beg for mercy when they encountered this situation, to beg for their own lives, this was what he was most happy to see, because it could satisfy his vanity, but this guy was laughing, and he laughed very heartily, which made him very uncomfortable.
"Since you will not kneel, then die to atone for your sins. Li Jian's face was cold.
Xiao Yi was shocked in his heart, he wanted to teach this Li Wei a lesson, and realized that Li Wei was the descendant of the Li family, so he didn't make a heavy hand, otherwise he would have been cut in half by his own sword, but this guy had murderous intentions towards himself, and regarded human life as a camellia, which was even more hateful than Li Wei. These two brothers are not a family, they don't enter the door!
"Haha! The dignified Li family will only make a move on me, an ordinary person who doesn't even have a condensation realm, on the first day. Xiao Yi coughed in a sarcastic tone.
"What, not even a condensation realm?" Li Jian looked at Li Wei, who was smiling, and his face froze.
"Is what he said true?" Li Jian asked Li Wei, but seeing that Li Wei cowered and did not speak, it obviously proved what Xiao Yi said.
"I can't beat a wreck, it's a shame for my Li family, don't say that you are my brother in the future. Li Jian's face was extremely unsightly, so many people looked at it, it was obvious that he bullied a person who was not in the condensation realm with the seventh level of the condensation realm, and seeing that Xiao Yi was only eleven or twelve years old, Li Jian was a proud person, he felt that this had ruined his face, and he also felt a deep disgust for his younger brother.
"Big brother, since it's inconvenient for you to make a move, let me do it for you, anyway, he was seriously injured by the big brother, this kid seemed arrogant before, I want to get it back with profits. Li Wei whispered in Li Jian's ear.
"This is a feasible solution, and I will leave it to you, and it is better to kill him, and then I will tell my father to suppress this matter. Li Jian smiled faintly.
"Hehe, just leave it to me!" As soon as Li Wei heard that he had his father's support, he suddenly mustered up the courage to kill in his heart, and with Li Jian's assurance, he looked at Xiao Yi with viciousness in his eyes.
"Is it still too weak? Can't you do anything if you can't become a martial artist?Is this the real world?" Xiao Yi laughed self-deprecatingly, just now Li Jian's blow, Xiao Yi had tried his best, and there was no resistance at all, looking at the pair of beggar mother and daughter, his eyes were full of helplessness, but he did not regret what he did today.
"Phew" Li Wei spat on the ground, Xiao Yi's smile was undoubtedly regarded by him as mocking him, his face turned pig's liver color, and he picked up the sword that Xiao Yi had dropped before.
"Kill you with your sword to relieve the hatred in my heart!" Li Wei's face was hideous, but his nose was red and swollen funny.
Xiao Yi closed his eyes, but he was extremely unwilling in his heart. If I could practice martial arts, and I was a strong martial artist, maybe I wouldn't be like this!
In the refining room, the old man in ragged clothes sat on a chair with his eyes closed and sighed: "Do you still yearn to become a martial artist?" I wanted you to live an ordinary and comfortable life, but practicing martial arts is more suitable for you. That little girl has arrived, and it seems that I don't need to do anything, but it's time to do something for you. The old man suddenly opened his eyes, and in the blink of an eye he was gone.
Li Wei on the other side felt that he was ignored, and he felt endless resentment in his heart, and immediately slashed with a sword, but he didn't know when he was tied by a long whip, and then the whip flew out with a sword, lying flat on the ground, when he got up, the sword was inserted between Li Wei's legs, and there was only a centimeter away from the root of his life, and then his legs trembled, and his eyes were black, and he fainted.
"Who dares to bully Brother Yi. β
