Chapter 9: The Alchemist
The layout of the second floor of the Instrument Alliance branch is completely different from the first floor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
After Lu Ming came to the second floor of the Qi Alliance, the first thing he saw was thousands of independent rooms. The doors and walls of these rooms are all made of transparent materials.
Lu Ming walked all the way down and found that most of the rooms were uniformly furnished. In addition to one furnace, there is only one casting platform.
Lu Ming tried to push open the door of the room and go to the inside of the room to take a look, but the door was locked and Lu Ming couldn't enter.
Mixed Yuan Daojun had already appeared beside Lu Ming at this time, and when he saw the layout of this place, he couldn't help but praise, "This is the refiner's personal workshop, although it is a little simpler, but it can be regarded as attentive."
After finishing speaking, a flame condensed from the palm of Lu Ming Daojun's hand, and then threw it towards the wall of one of the workshops.
Lu Ming was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Master, what are you doing here?" ”
Mixed Yuan Daojun smiled, "You look at it."
As soon as the words fell, the flames had already touched the transparent wall, but to Lu Ming's surprise, the flames disappeared without a trace the moment they touched the wall, and there was no trace left on the wall.
Mixed Yuan Daojun nodded and said, "The material of this wall should be an alloy smelted from glazed sand and Chiming gold, and the effect of absorbing energy is okay."
After the explanation of the Mixed Yuan Daojun, Lu Ming knew that some accidents occasionally occurred in the process of refining the weapon, causing energy to leak out, thus causing damage. In order to avoid and minimize losses, the refiner's workshop will generally have facilities to absorb the impact of energy.
As for the personal safety of the refiner, there is no need to worry too much, first, the refiner pays attention to the cultivation of the body, otherwise how to refine the weapon. Second, if the item being refined contains a huge amount of energy, the refiner will naturally take precautions, after all, no one will joke with their own lives.
After walking for a while, Lu Ming saw a lot of intricately arranged workshops, all of which were marked with the name of the refiner to which they belonged in front of the door, but there was no one in the workshop.
After another moment, Lu Ming finally saw a figure in a workshop, two figures to be exact.
The two men were two women, one of whom looked in his thirties and the other who looked to be only about twenty years old, both wearing only a shirtless shirt that showed her bare skin.
Seeing that the two of them were concentrating on polishing a piece of equipment, Lu Ming thought that it was inconvenient to disturb at this time, so he immediately came to the door of the workshop and looked at the nameplate on the door.
"Five-Rank Refiner!" , When Lu Ming saw the words on the nameplate, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
I saw that the nameplate on the door was engraved with the big characters 'Five-Grade Refiner Fan Qianyan'.
In the Yuanming Continent, the grade of a refiner is also divided into seven grades, which means that this woman named Fan Qianyan is actually a middle-level refiner.
After being surprised, Lu Ming couldn't help but look inside the workshop, only to see the two women with serious expressions, as if they had reached the last critical moment.
After a few moments, a subtle spark rose, and the younger woman's expression darkened, and the movements of her hands stopped.
The older-looking woman shook her head and sighed, as if she was saying something to the young woman, but with the sound insulation of this wall, Lu Ming couldn't hear the sound inside.
The young woman nodded to the older woman's voice, and the pen in her hand kept recording on the scroll of paper.
After a while, the older woman was probably a little thirsty, so she walked aside and took some tea to drink, and it was at this moment that the woman saw Lu Ming outside the workshop.
The woman frowned, walked to the door of the workshop and pressed a mechanism, "Who are you?" Hasn't anyone ever told you that it's extremely rude to observe someone else's refining without permission? ”
Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, and said to the woman, "I'm sorry, my name is Lu Ming, I first arrived at the branch of the Instrument Alliance, and I don't know the rules of this place, if there is anything rude, please forgive me."
Seeing that Lu Ming's expression was quite sincere, the woman no longer pursued it, and then opened the door of the workshop, and said to the young woman, "You go down and reflect on it, if you can't complete this part independently, don't participate in this month's promotion assessment."
"I know the master"
The young woman's expression was a little depressed, and when she came out of the workshop, she glanced at Lu Ming, and then quickly left the place.
After the young woman left, Fan Qianyan picked up the slender pipe on the casting platform, lit the tobacco leaves with the blazing flame in the furnace, and then took a deep breath.
Fan Qianyan swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog, ignoring Lu Ming's meaning at all.
Lu Ming was quite embarrassed, and said to her stubbornly, "Master Fan, I want to become a refining apprentice, and I also ask the master to put forward the conditions for the assessment."
Fan Qianyan exhaled a puff of smoke and glanced at Lu Ming, "Say, where have you done your work and worked in the blacksmith shop?" ”
Lu Ming shook his head and said, "I haven't worked in a blacksmith or an armory shop before."
Fan Qianyan asked again, "Have you ever learned to carve models?" ”
Lu Ming shook his head.
"Will it be assembled?"
Lu Ming shook his head.
……
asked several skills in a row, but none of them were known to Lu Ming.
Fan Qianyan frowned, and asked Lu Ming, "Then what will you do?" ”
Lu Ming thought for a while and said, "I haven't actually touched refining weapons before, and I came to the Instrument Alliance this time to learn how to refine weapons."
Fan Qianyan's brows furrowed even deeper, and he said coldly, "Do you think the Qimeng is a place for you to do miscellaneous things?" If you want to become an apprentice of the Instrument Alliance, I advise you to find a blacksmith shop or industrial workshop first, and then come back after a few years of apprenticeship."
Fan Qianyan's tone and expression couldn't help but arouse the arrogance in Lu Ming's bones.
Lu Ming laughed, "What Master Fan said is extremely true, but since I came to the Instrument Alliance, I didn't think about returning empty-handed, so let's ask the master to ask the question!" ”
Fan Qianyan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she nodded to Lu Ming and said, "The young man is really rebellious, since this is the case, I will give you a chance, come with me."
Lu Ming followed Fan Qianyan closely, and after a while, Lu Ming followed Fan Qianyan to the first layer of the Instrument Alliance.
"Zhang Yucheng, come over to me"
Not long after the words fell, a shirtless man came to Fan Qianyan and Lu Ming, "What does Master Fan command?"
Fan Qianyan pointed to Lu Ming and said to the big man named Zhang Yucheng, "Within an hour, teach this kid the basic process of forging a sword, and I will test it in an hour."
Zhang Yucheng looked at Lu Ming, although he had doubts, he still responded, "Please rest assured, master"
Fan Qianyan nodded, and then said to Lu Ming, "Haven't you ever touched the refining weapon, I'll give you an hour to study." In an hour's time, if you can forge a sword on your own, I will make you an apprentice under my name."
Zhang Yucheng was stunned when he heard this, and he only knew at this time that the sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in front of him had actually come to participate in the refining apprentice assessment. But forging a sword is not a day's work, if you don't have several years of experience in striking iron, let alone casting a sword, even an iron pot can't be made.
What's more, this young man never seemed to have touched a refining weapon.
When Zhang Yucheng was secretly surprised, Lu Ming's voice suddenly sounded, "In this way, it will trouble this brother."
