On this day, Li Bin led the newly recruited compound blacksmith disciples to the sect's forging room, and let the blacksmith disciples show their blacksmith skills in person, whether they are donkeys or horses, and they can be pulled out to know it.

"Here are all ready-made steel ingots, you can choose to forge them, I have only one request, forge a long sword for me." Li Bin said.

"Yes, Master."

"Master, these ingots are so beautiful, I can say with great certainty that the quality of the weapons forged with these ingots must be very good!"

"Let's start, compare it with the teacher, whether the quality of the long sword you forged is high, or the quality of the teacher."

"It has to be me!" The blacksmith disciple responded with great confidence.

"So confident, but forging is by hands, not by mouth, whether it works or not will be known in a while."

"Master, I admire your skills in making steel ingots very much, but I am still confident that I can defeat you in the skill of forging weapons."

"Good. I like people who are capable, confident. I hope you don't let me down! ”

After half a tea time, the forging room resounded with the rhythmic "clanging" of forging metal. The master and apprentice each took out the forging skills at the bottom of the box, one was shorter and longer, and vowed to distinguish the superior.

Forging, forging sword embryos, quenching. Several processes were successfully completed, and Li Bin's new long sword was successfully forged. The quality is rated as D, and the quality is still the same as the quality of the longsword forged before, and there is no qualitative improvement.

"Alas, the most important thing is the stable quality." Li Bin laughed at himself.

"Master, my long sword has also been forged, what do you think?"

After Li Bin took a closer look at the long sword forged by the blacksmith disciple, he immediately threw away the long sword forged by himself, picked up the long sword forged by the blacksmith disciple and looked at it repeatedly from all angles, and couldn't put it down.

The quality of the longsword forged by the blacksmith disciple is an eye-popping C-grade. It's a whole grade higher than the long sword forged by Li Bin!

In the same environment of forging materials and forging conditions, the quality of weapons that can be forged is one grade higher than that of the opponent, which is enough to show that the blacksmith disciple's forging skills are very solid and excellent.

"Okay, can you tell the master where you learned your blacksmith trade?"

"Don't hide it from the master, my grandfather and father are blacksmiths in the largest blacksmith shop in the capital for two generations, my father's forging skills are much better than mine, and no one in the Great Qi Country is unsurpassed. One day, there was a father-in-law who claimed to be the inner court, brought a piece of good casting material cold iron, and asked his father to forge a good sword, saying that he wanted to compete with the sword of Fanbang, if the quality of the sword forged by his father was stronger than the sword in the hands of the envoy of Fanbang, there would be a heavy reward, if he lost, he would close the store and smash the signboard! ”

"Oh, so you're a family heirloom, no wonder you're so skilled in blacksmithing. I'm willing to bow down. Did your father's forged sword win Fanbang's sword in the end? ”

As soon as Li Bin spoke, he felt that he had lost his words.

The blacksmith disciple's face immediately became extremely sad, his eyes were also red, and his voice was a little whimpering, "My father mentioned to me that the use of cold iron and other special materials to forge weapons, excellent skills are first and foremost, but more importantly, the water source used in the final process "quenching" must be consistent with the forging material, otherwise no matter how skilled your forging skills are, the forging outcome can only be failure." ”

The blacksmith disciple wiped the tears that fell from his cheeks, paused, and continued to whimper: "In the early years, my father and grandfather found an excellent water source by chance, and used a special large water tank to fill three large tanks to forge divine weapons, and this water was used as water for the "quenching" process. But what is infuriating is that the envoys of Fanbang, I don't know how to find out by what means that the imperial court entrusted my father to forge divine soldiers against them, and the envoys of Fanbang found my father with the help of the villain who offered flattery, and paid a lot of money to ask my father not to forge divine soldiers for the imperial court, and my father was unmoved, so that his disciples threw all these people out of the door. ”

"Your father is very good! It's a role model for my generation! Li Bin praised.

"But what my father never imagined, his most important personal disciple actually colluded with this group of envoys of Fanbang, collected the money of those people, secretly smashed the last tank containing a special water source, and released all the water, and finally my father was forged due to the problem of water source, resulting in the prince and people to fail to compare swords, the prince later became angry, ordered to kill my father, and confiscated my family's blacksmith shop." When the blacksmith disciple said this, his fists were clenched very tightly, and he looked fierce with angry hair.

The blacksmith disciple said worriedly: "Master, let me tell you the truth, I entered the Futu Sect to learn your martial arts and avenge my father!" You're not going to dislike me and ignore me, are you? ”

Li Bin patted his disciple on the shoulder comfortingly, and said: "These unscrupulous people will not escape punishment, don't think too much, practice hard, learn your skills well, and it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years!" ”

"Disciple Lin Kai, I would like to thank Master for your encouragement in advance." As soon as Lin Kai's voice fell, he knelt down and kowtowed to Li Bin and made a big salute.

"Hurry up, how does this work?" Li Bin couldn't understand why Lin Kai suddenly bowed to himself.

"Master, you deserve it! Lin Kai wandered from the capital to Lingnan, and he also worshiped many sects along the way, but when the masters of those sects heard me talk about the reason for learning martial arts, they were unwilling to teach me with real kung fu, and some of them directly expelled me from the sect. There is no master of any sect who does not dislike me like you, and comforts and supports me. Lin Kai said, his eyes couldn't help but moisten again.

"It can be seen that you are a person of temperament, very much of your father's legacy, avenging your father, it is justified, how can Master dislike you and blame you? It's just one thing, the master must say the ugly things in front, learning martial arts and practicing martial arts is not an overnight thing, if you don't practice martial arts, don't blame the master for not allowing you to go down the mountain to seek revenge! ”

"Disciple obeys the master's orders!" Lin Kai replied loudly.

Lin Kai's father was killed and exiled in Lingnan, and it was from the hands of the prince of the current dynasty, and Li Bin had a very bad impression of the prince of the Great Qi Dynasty at this time. If this kind of person sits in the dragon court and reigns over the world, the people don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.

As described in Lin Kai's words, when many sects heard that Lin Kai's matter involved the prince, there was no sect that was not afraid, so no one dared to accept Lin Kai all the way, and he wandered to Lingnan, and finally worshiped the Futu Gate.

Other sects are afraid of the prince, so Li Bin doesn't pee on the prince. Li Bin has his own set of principles, mighty and unyielding, making friends but acting with a breath in his chest, Li Bin is willing to treat people with sincerity. Treacherous people, even if you have martial arts and power over the world, if you want Li Bin to kowtow and submit, it is absolutely impossible, blood can flow, bones can be broken, and the high head will never be lowered!
