Chapter 194: Black Iron and Red Gold (3,000 words)
Several soldiers were in command, although they were curious, but Wang Chengjie ordered them to retreat, and they didn't dare to stay, so they could only take people away more than ten zhang away.
Within ten zhang, only Wang Chengjie and Li Qiu remained.
Wang Chengjie stretched the body of the long knife into the water, looked at him contemptuously, and said slowly to Li Qiu.
"You must think that the black body of this knife is made of black iron, but if I guess correctly, this knife is actually made of black iron!"
"Black Smelting Iron?" Li Qiu frowned slightly.
Wang Chengjie looked sarcastic, glanced at the silent Li Qiu, and said.
"You were born in a small place like Shangjiang City, so you must have never heard of black smelting iron. ”
"Although the appearance of black smelting iron is very similar to black iron, but the two are difficult to compare together, black iron is also relatively rare, but compared with black smelting iron, it is a heaven and an underground. ”
"The treasure of black smelting iron is extremely rare, but it is impossible to find it, and the divine weapon forged with it can be called a peerless divine weapon. ”
"Peerless Divine Soldier?" A trace of doubt flashed in Li Qiu's eyes, this sword is far from even a divine weapon, how can it be called a peerless divine weapon.
Wang Chengjie continued.
"As you know, this knife is a sharp weapon, but it is not a divine weapon, because it is all made of black iron. ”
"When casting weapons with black smelted iron, another precious material must be added as auxiliary materials, and the weapon cast is a peerless divine weapon. ”
"That kind of precious material is red gold!"
"Chijin?" Li Qiu's eyes moved slightly.
Red gold is another name for pure gold, red gold is very rare, not circulated in the market, equivalent to a kind of treasure, mostly seen in the homes of princes and nobles.
A thousand taels of gold can be exchanged for about one tael of red gold, and it is priceless in the market, so it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a precious material.
However, compared with the unavoidable black smelting iron, it is much easier to get.
"So, when this knife is reforged, how much red gold needs to be added to make it a peerless divine weapon?" Li Qiu's expression moved slightly, as if he was curious.
"Nine parts of black smelting iron and one part of red gold can cast a peerless divine weapon. Wang Chengjie frowned and muttered.
"To reforge this knife and make it a peerless divine weapon, it will cost a lot of red gold......"
Li Qiu calculated in his heart that the silver ticket he got from killing Jin Li was enough to buy the red gold that recast this knife into a divine weapon, but he didn't know where to buy the red gold......
Wang Chengjie felt that the time was not bad, and his voice changed.
"Many people mistake black iron for black iron, and the way to identify black iron is slightly darker than black iron in color, the most significant feature is that it is soaked in water for a long time, and the color will change from black to jet black. ”
As he spoke, Wang Chengjie pulled the long knife out of the water, and he could clearly see the part of the knife that stretched out into the water, and the color changed from jet black to jet black.
It is not obvious when you look at it alone, but when you contrast it with the color of the blade that is not immersed in water, it becomes very obvious immediately.
"Sure enough, it's black smelting iron!" Wang Chengjie held a long knife in his hand, his eyes ecstatic.
The unattainable black smelting iron actually let him meet it!
His luck was not bad.
When Wang Chengjie sighed in his heart, he didn't think that this knife was half snatched from Li Qiu's hand.
Wang Chengjie turned around, his expression was cold, he looked at Li Qiu, and threatened fiercely.
"I agreed to your conditions and told you about the Black Smelting Iron, but you are not allowed to tell the second person about it. ”
"If I let me know that you leaked this, I won't be able to spare you!"
Hearing Wang Chengjie's threat, Li Qiu looked expressionless and replied.
"I promise it won't leak out. ”
Seeing Li Qiu's assurance, Wang Chengjie nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand.
"Very well, go ahead. ”
Li Qiu turned around and walked towards the place where he had rested.
Wang Chengjie looked at Li Qiu's back, his expression was gloomy, and a fierce glint appeared in his eyes, like a beast that wanted to choose people and devour.
He threatened Li Qiu, just to get Li Qiu not to leak the matter these days when he was still in Shangjiang City.
He had already planned to kill Li Qiu before leaving Shangjiang City, so that this matter would never be leaked.
He can't kill Zhu You, can't he kill a common person!
It must be a very pleasant feeling to kill a descendant of a martial saint who has a promising future in the martial arts!
Wang Chengjie thought, a cruel sneer appeared on his face.
Li Qiu's eyes moved slightly.
Of course, he won't leak it, and the less people know about it, the better.
How could he let more people know that he had a long knife made of black smelted iron, wouldn't that probably cause him a lot of trouble.
Li Qiu had murderous intent towards Wang Chengjie just now, and he gave the knife to Wang Chengjie because he wanted to know the special features of this knife.
Now he already knows that the long knife is made of black smelting iron, which made Wang Chengjie so out of shape just now, and Wang Chengjie is useless.
But due to the fact that there are many people around him and it is difficult to move, this knife can only be temporarily placed in Wang Chengjie's hand.
He would retrieve the knife at night, and by the way, tell Wang Chengjie what it means to "meet but not seek".
It's luck, not your thing, and forcing it will only bring trouble to yourself!
A touch of coldness flashed in Li Qiu's eyes.
After a while, the soldiers and the people of the martial arts hall had just finished lunch, and Wang Chengjie ordered to continue to search for the traces of the ghosts, and did not give more time to rest at all.
Most people's mental fatigue has not yet recovered, and now even the people who think about Shangjiang City have some complaints.
Until dusk, Wang Chengjie did not let the soldiers and the people in the martial arts hall rest again.
The sky is dark, and the sun sets at dusk.
More than 1,000 soldiers and people from the martial arts hall dragged their tired bodies back to Shangjiang City.
Li Qiu and Tao Zi'an took the people from the martial arts hall to a restaurant under the name of the martial arts hall, had a good meal, and then returned to the martial arts hall.
At night, Aoki Martial Arts, in the courtyard.
"Someone. ”
Under the bright lights, Li Qiu's five fingers tapped on the table, muttered for a moment, and summoned a servant.
"I went to the City Lord's Mansion to invite the City Lord Zhu, and said that there was something important to discuss. ”
"Yes. ”
The City Lord's Mansion, in the study.
Zhu You was wearing a single coat, looking at Wen Mu at the desk, dealing with the affairs in the city.
Although he was robbed of the power of the city lord by Wang Chengjie, Wang Chengjie couldn't handle the affairs in the city, so he still threw it to him.
"Sir. ”
There was a call outside the door.
Zhu You raised his head, his brows furrowed slightly.
"What's going on so late?"
"Aoki Martial Arts Hall sent a servant to discuss something important with the master, and let the master go quickly. ”
"Aoki Martial Arts?" Zhu You looked puzzled.
"Who sent that servant?"
"Master Hui, it seems to be Zhang Xing, the third disciple of Pavilion Master Chen. ”
Zhu You's expression tightened.
"Okay, I'll do it. ”
Zhu You put on his coat and followed the servants all the way to the Aoki Martial Arts Pavilion and entered Li Qiu's mansion.
"City Lord Zhu, it's really disturbing to invite you here late at night. ”
Seeing Zhu You, Li Qiu got up to greet him and said slightly apologetically.
"It's okay, but I don't know what happened to Zhang Xian's nephew inviting me late at night?"
Zhu You smiled and waved his hand.
Li Qiu invited Zhu You to sit down, and the servants brought snacks and hot tea.
"I'm looking for City Lord Zhu so late, and I do have an important matter to discuss with City Lord Zhu. ”
Li Qiu's expression was serious, and he said slowly.
"Zhang Xian's nephew, but it doesn't hurt to say. ”
"I want to kill the Sky Surveyor sent by the Sky Surveyor. A touch of coldness flashed in Li Qiu's eyes, and he said slowly.
Zhu You was shocked.
"I don't know what happened, I want Zhang Xian's nephew to kill Wang Heng?"
Wang Chengjie must have had a conflict with Li Qiu, but Zhu You was curious about what kind of conflict would make Li Qiu have murderous thoughts about Wang Chengjie.
After all, Wang Chengjie is not a martial artist in the meat training period, Li Qiu wants to kill a person who can be killed at will, but a martial artist in the same realm as him.
Li Qiu wants to kill Wang Chengjie, but there is also a possibility that he is not Wang Chengjie's opponent and will die in his hands.
Li Qiu is not an impulsive person, and he risked his life to kill Wang Chengjie, so there must be an irreconcilable and irritating conflict.
"When I went out of the city today to search for the traces of the ghosts, he asked me to practice swordsmanship in public. ”
Zhu You's face showed a clear look, this was almost an insult, and it was not surprising that Li Qiu had murderous thoughts towards Wang Chengjie.
"When I refused, he took my sword as a gift of atonement. ”
Li Qiu said this very cleverly, and did not tell Zhu You about the black iron smelting, but it also showed that the long knife was not ordinary, and it was not considered to deceive him.
"That nephew Zhang Xian called me ......," Zhu You tried to ask.
"It's nothing, I just want City Lord Zhu to tell me where Wang Heng lives in the City Lord's Mansion, and tell City Lord Zhu in advance, don't scare you and your family at that time. Li Qiu chuckled.
"I see, when is Nephew Zhang Xian going to do it?" Zhu You nodded and asked.
"Tonight. ”
"Tonight?!"
Zhu You looked surprised, and when Li Qiu talked about this matter, he couldn't see any solemnity and worry on his face, as if he was just saying another trivial matter.
He also thought that Li Qiu was going to do it in a few days, but he didn't expect Li Qiu to plan to do it tonight.
It seems that he doesn't regard Wang Chengjie as a great enemy at all, and he feels that he is sure of killing Wang Chengjie, and his demeanor will be so relaxed.
A flash of surprise flashed in Zhu You's eyes.
"It seems that Zhang Xian's nephew should have some terrible hole cards. ”
Li Qiu smiled but did not speak.
Zhu You also didn't continue to ask.
Which martial artist doesn't have one or two hands of hole cards, Li Qiu's hole card is the Burning Blood Secret Method, but he has no intention of killing Wang Chengjie to use the Burning Blood Secret Method.
Zhu You's perception of his strength is still stuck in the battle with Cao Shao.
It was true that the battle didn't last long, and it was naturally impossible for other martial artists to make any big progress in strength in a few days.
But Li Qiu was different, he had grown in strength in a matter of days that other martial artists might have taken years to grow.
After raising the Black Tiger Demon Classic and the Barbarian Elephant Skill to the ninth layer, it is impossible for a martial artist in the early stage of the ordinary cultivation period to be his opponent, and killing a Wang Chengjie is indeed a sure thing.
"It seems that Zhang Xian's nephew is ready to kill Wang Heng, but after killing Wang Heng, what should the Sky Survey Division do?"
Zhu You asked.
A touch of coldness flashed in Li Qiu's eyes, and he chuckled.
"This is a simple ......"
