Chapter 40: The Gambling Fight Begins
The sonorous words blurted out, shocking everyone in the lobby of Zhu Ji's ironware shop, especially Qian Pei, who secretly said that it was not good! I had never heard that Zhu Ziming still had a junior brother in the shop, and Hu Xiang had never mentioned it to him, so he couldn't help but start to doubt, and turned his head to stare at Hu Xiang with a blue face, "Could it be that this is a game made by Zhu Ziming's master and apprentice?"
Hu Xiang seemed to feel Qian Pei's malice, and immediately explained: "Master, this white-clothed man doesn't know how to forge at all, he only came to the old bastard to learn art more than two months ago, he is just a chick! The disciple is willing to fight on behalf of Qian Ji against this kid, and he will definitely win!"
Hearing Hu Xiang's explanation, Qian Pei's heart settled down a little, more than two months, even if he was a genius, he was an apprentice.
Hu Xiang is different, although he is not a low-level caster of the First Hammer Realm, but he can forge a mortal-level low-level iron ingot, and he is only one step away from successfully casting a hammer of the first Hammer Realm, and if he fights, he will definitely win easily.
"Haha! boy, since you are so confident, then the old man will fulfill you, the old man's new disciple Hu Xiang is willing to compete with you, if you lose, everything will be done according to the rules!" Qian Pei said to Bai Yihe with a seeming magnanimity.
"Old dog, don't worry, I will let you lose!" Looking at the two people in front of him, the white clothes were angry and didn't fight together, and he couldn't wait to scold a few words to feel comfortable.
Squinting, Qian Peitie blushed, gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, I'll see if you lose later, you can still be so sharp-tongued!"
"Heh!" After sneering, Bai Yihe ignored the other party.
Turning around, he faced Zhu Ziming and said, "Senior brother, can you lend me a casting table in the lobby?"
Zhu Ziming shook his head and said in a deep voice to Bai Yihe:
"Little junior brother, forget it, I admit it! After accepting such an apprentice, I don't have the face to stay in Fierce Ze City anymore. ”
"Besides, you're no match for that bastard, who can forge a mortal-level low-rank iron ingot, and is only one step away from becoming a forger, so there's no need for you to lose such a game. ”
"If losing the bet affects your mind, causing you to delay becoming a caster, I won't have the face to see the master!"
Hearing her father's words, Zhu Lei, who was standing on the side, also persuaded her: "Brother Bai, what Daddy said is right, there is no need to participate in a gambling battle that must be lost to affect your temperament, you are a genius!"
"Haha! Senior brother, Miss Lei'er, please rest assured, who loses and who wins is not certain! You can borrow me a good casting table with peace of mind, and I will be greatly favored by Zhu Ji, and then let me pick this burden!"
A firm voice confided from Bai Yihe's mouth, Zhu Ziming also looked at Bai Yihe with some surprise, and thought, "Could it be that he has become a low-level caster in the First Hammer Realm? It's impossible! It's only been more than two months, and no matter how talented he is, it's impossible to be so fast! Besides, if he officially becomes a caster, he should have works to identify with me! No matter what, he can only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor!"
Shaking his head, Zhu Ziming put aside his chaotic thoughts, although he didn't have the slightest confidence in the gambling between the two of them, he still pointed to the nearest casting platform with a hint of expectation: "Little junior brother, this is my commonly used casting platform, which has reached the low-level level of the ground, and it depicts the fire soul pattern, which has a bonus effect on the forging of iron embryos!
There are generally two things that are not borrowed by the caster, one is the hammer, and the other is the casting table.
The so-called caster table is a kind of horcrux, which is composed of a firebox, a furnace, a bellows, etc., the caster table does not burn coal, and the fuel used is the fire soul pattern or the true fire of heaven and earth carved by the soul carver, the real fire of heaven and earth is not easy to do, this is an extremely rare soul treasure, so most casters will use soul patterns instead.
It is extremely difficult for each casting table to be made by the caster, whether it is from the fire resistance, impact resistance, and the catalytic effect that the bellows can achieve.
"Haha! Old bastard, he actually wants to use a low-level caster platform to crush me, he is a garbage who doesn't know anything, even if he gives him a heaven-level casting table, it's useless! I, Hu Xiang, can win with a random caster table!" grinning, Hu Xiang teased with a relaxed look on his face.
However, Qian Pei was an old man after all, so he took out a heavy casting platform from the space ring very steadily, pointed and said: "Hu Xiang, you just use my ground-level mid-level casting platform, you have to have a good fight, I'll see how he wins you!"
"Haha, Master Xie borrowed this artifact, and the apprentice will definitely win!" Hu Xiang took the word traitor to the extreme, and then took out the iron hammer from the space ring and placed it on the desk, then pulled the lever of the bellows on the caster table, ready to trigger the flame soul pattern in the caster table.
"Whew!"
The pale cyan flame appeared in the eyes of everyone like silk, and after only a few breaths, the blazing breath gradually spread, and even the breath had a hint of burning, the ground-level casting platform was terrifying!
As the bellows continued to pull, the soul pattern in the firebox of the caster table was promoted to the extreme, and the pale cyan flames continued to grow, and finally turned into a spirit snake circling around the furnace.
"Heh!" Hu Xiang let out a low sigh, and threw the iron embryo in his hand into it, only to see the hovering light cyan flame spirit snake latching on to the iron embryo, and then raised its head, like a carp jumping over the dragon gate, the iron embryo was pushed to the highest point of flame temperature.
The scene in front of him made Zhu Ziming frown, originally he didn't have much hope for Bai Yihe, but now when he saw that the traitor was using such a level of casting platform, his heart was even more bottomless.
Although it was the first time he had seen the vision of the casting platform, the merger of the white clothes did not affect him because of this, and he came to the casting platform of his senior brother Zhu Ziming with firm steps, and took out a half-human-tall giant que from the space ring.
"Crunch!"
Holding the handle tightly, Bai Yihe slowly pulled the bellows, and the whistling wind came with the agitated bellows, and then the flame soul pattern carved in the furnace began to trigger, and after a few breaths, a light blue flame burst out from the soul pattern.
"Crunch, crunch, crunch!"
The speed of the arm pulling gradually increased, and the wind force poured into the bellows gradually increased, and more and more pale blue flames burst out from the firebox, and the rising flames continued to circle around the furnace wall, and in the blink of an eye, the pale blue flames turned into a translucent lotus flower shape.
The ground-level casting table is generally depicted with the ground-level flame soul pattern, and the difference between the ground-level flame soul pattern and the mortal level is that it can be transformed, and the flame after transformation is not known how many times the temperature of the mortal level rises, the higher the flame temperature, the iron embryo is not only easy to heat up quickly, but also easier to make its impurities brittle quickly, so as to facilitate the next forging.
The flame temperature of the caster table has reached its peak, Bai Yihe immediately made a decision, and threw the iron embryo in his hand into it, only to see the light blue lotus flame put the iron embryo in the center, and the black iron embryo was like a lotus seed conceived by a lotus, standing in it.
"Phew!"
"Phew!"
"Phew!"
A few hammering sounds came from the side, and when the white clothes were on fire, Hu Xiang had finished heating the iron embryo, and at this time he had begun to hammer and forge.
"Haha, boy, didn't expect it? Do you know how to make a fire? Do you know when the iron embryo can be forged?"
"I guess you'll be able to pull out the iron embryo later, and you won't be able to hit it with a hammer, right?"
The mocking voice came out of Hu Xiang's mouth, and the white clothes ignored the other party, staring intently at the iron embryo that was rapidly heating in the furnace, and the blazing flames made the beads of sweat roll between the white clothes' foreheads, and gradually the clothes became a little wet.
At this time, Bai Yihe's heart was extremely firm, this time for the sake of the senior brother, there must be no mistakes.
After the tea, under the blazing roast of the light blue lotus, the iron embryo becomes red.
"It's now!" With a low cry in his heart, Bai Yihe immediately clamped out the iron embryo and placed it on the desk, slowly holding Juque's hammer handle with both hands.
Holding his breath and concentrating, his eyes slowly closed, and a mountain without peaks and mountainsides suddenly flashed in his quiet mind, and then, Bai Yihe let out a low cry in his heart.
"Phew!"
A deafening sound came, and the white clothes holding the hammer in both hands were like the shape of a mountain, and they were fiercely under the red iron embryo hammer!
The first form of "Shaking Dragon Hammer Technique" is now basically mastered by Bai Yihe.
"Boom, boom!"
The successive loud noises gradually formed a regular rhythm, which spread in the hall, and everyone only felt that there was a unique rhythm in their ears, and they turned their heads one after another, and their eyes turned to Bai Yihe.
I saw that the giant in his hand was vigorously violated by the tiger and tiger dancing, and the momentum was constantly increasing, and the fiery red iron embryo under the hammer was forged, and the impurities continued to crack and peel off from the iron embryo with the 'shape' hammer technique.
"Shhh
"Oh my God, is this really Uncle Bai?"
"When will Uncle Bai forge it?"
"Daddy, how do I feel that Big Brother Bai seems to be able to forge a mortal-level low-grade iron ingot?" The incredible momentum in front of him made Zhu Lei and the others stunned and extremely surprised.
Not to mention Zhu Leiren and others, Zhu Ziming was also surprised to the extreme, he could easily see that Bai Yihe had practiced the 'form' of the "Shock Dragon Hammer Technique".
Staring at the white-clothed figure wielding a hammer, Zhu Ziming's expression was confused, and he muttered in a low voice: "Lei'er!
Different from Zhu Lei's surprise and joy, Qian Pei and Steward Zhang's expressions became extremely ugly, especially Qian Pei's expression was extremely gloomy, and he could see at a glance that the white clothes could forge mortal-level low-grade iron ingots.
Originally, he spent a lot of money to buy the City Lord's Mansion and Hu Xiang, but he didn't expect such a huge variable to happen, and Qian Pei's eyes couldn't help but be filled with huge killing intent.
"Impossible! How could this kid forge an iron embryo! He has only been here for more than two months, it is impossible! It must be an illusion!" Hu Xiang, who was forging an iron embryo not far away, looked at Bai Yihe with everyone's exclamation, but after staring at it twice, he recovered and focused on the forging in his hand, he firmly believed that Bai Yihe could not forge an iron embryo so quickly.
Ignoring the exclamations and killing intent of the crowd, Bai Yihe was immersed in the 'shape' hammer technique, and continued to forge the iron embryo, only seventy-two hammers, the iron embryo had exploded in cold light, and a mortal-level low-grade iron ingot lay quietly on the desk.
"It seems that this time it will be forged into iron ingots faster than the last time!" After thinking for a moment, Bai Yihe put down the giant que in his hand and stared at Hu Xiang, who was still forging.
