Chapter Forty-Eight: The Blacksmith's Shop: Human Bones Forge Swords

He looked at the sword, as if he couldn't put it down: "It's polished!" Take it, and be sure to treat it well. Don't bury it, and I don't know what the person who gave you this sword thinks. It is a shame for the master to be able to put the sword in rust! ”

After all, it's a county order! Usually, you don't have to fight and kill, so you must just put it there.

After handing the sword to Lan Qi, he prepared to go back and continue smoking. However, as soon as I turned around, it was a mess inside. The floor was full of water, and the walls were scorched.

"This ......" The old man looked dazed, when did it become like this?

Lan Qi also shook his head helplessly and said, "You focused on sharpening your sword just now, and the sparks of the cigarette stick burned the things around you. Then help you put out the fire......"

After being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly drove Lan Qi and Mu Qing away: "Okay!" Let's go, the sword is sharpened. Let's go! ”

The two of them are also helpless! So what else can be done? It's not just going back, but before leaving. Lan Qi still left him ten yuan, which was the salary for sharpening the knife.

Although he didn't say that he wanted to collect money, he found someone to help sharpen his sword after all. How can you do it without giving money?

Then Lan Qi put the sword in the system backpack, but it was so long. No one wondered, where did he get his sword? Where did the sword go?

Of course they were curious, but no one asked. It should be said that I am embarrassed to ask, after all, it is someone else's business. I'm sorry, but I believe you when you say he shrunk the sword and put it in his ears.

After another hour or so, it was almost time to eat.

Mu Qing turned her head to look at Lan Qi, but she actually used her spare eyes to look at the little cat demon following behind her.

I didn't expect it to be still there after following it for so long.

However, the old blacksmith just now. said that this sword was a demon slaying sword built by his master, and he was an old man. Wasn't his master dead decades earlier?

Lan Qi asked the system in a low voice: "System!" Master of that person just now, do you know something? He said that this is a demon slaying sword, so it should still be famous, right? ”

[I don't know! There is no relevant information, and the only lesser-known blacksmith in ancient times is 'Ganjiang Mo Xie'. The others are not as famous as him, and they all build ordinary swords. There is no demon slashing sword at all. 】

All right! It seems that he is a folk master, I don't know if he has been reincarnated.

Anyway, Hades or something, I believe in existence.

At this moment, a ghost suddenly floated in front of Lan Qi. This ghost wears a dirty-looking apron in front of him. He wears a pair of thick gloves on his hands, and he knows it by looking at it. Definitely an iron-striker!

Wait a minute...... Iron-striker? Could it be the old man's master just now?

However, look at his demeanor. It seems to be a little confused, people have three souls and seven spirits. After death, the soul will leave the body.

The spirit will stay in the body, but looking at him like this, there should be only two souls left. This is also a lost soul, what should I do? Do you want to help him?

[It's good that you don't meddle in your affairs, you have a demon slashing sword in your hand. Enough, I didn't want another handful. And, even if it helped him. He won't necessarily thank you either! 】

The system also guessed Lan Qi's thoughts, and this Lan Qi is a bad person.

Although I don't want to die, I like to be nosy.

You can always get yourself in trouble, and then run to the system to save your life.

Even the system is annoying, although I can guarantee your safety. But if you die by yourself, I can't help it!

"Uh...... All right! Hearing the system say this, he could only leave with Mu Qing helplessly.

The cat demon behind him, after seeing the soul of this blacksmith. Suddenly burst into tears, but did not dare to approach him.

And this scene happened to be seen by Mu Qing, could this old craftsman be the previous owner of this cat demon?

Afterwards, the two returned to the inn after eating. He went back to his room, and then the cat crept in through the window.

Lan Qi sat on the bed and looked at it and said, "What are you doing? ”

"That...... I think...... Please do me a favor! "Look closely at this little cat demon, there is a tattered dress all over his body. I don't even have pants, if it weren't for the big clothes.

Otherwise, it will definitely be gone!

It's really uncomfortable to watch it talk like this.

Lan Qi touched his chin and said, "Say it!" What's up? ”

"Please...... Save him! "This cat demon knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him, it seems that this person is very important to him.

But who are you talking about? My person is not directly to anyone, how can I save it? "He? Who is he? ”

The cat demon pointed out the window and said, "Just... Just now, outside...... The ghost you saw..... Blacksmith. ”

It turned out to be him, but I didn't expect this kitten to be a little sympathetic.

But the system told me not to meddle in things, or should I let Mu Qing go and see it first?

"Mu Qing! Come here, I'm looking for you. Lan Qi shouted loudly to Mu Qing in the next room.

Then the door to his room slammed open. Frightened, the cat demon hid directly under the table, and it seemed that he was usually scared by those people.

"I'm coming! What's the matter? Mu Qing looked at Lan Qi and the cat demon hiding under the table.

Lan Qi scratched his head, and then said to her, "You go with it to see how the old blacksmith is doing." It's the ghost blacksmith we saw just now, let's see if we can help him recover the rest of his soul. ”

"Okay!" Afterwards, Mu Qing didn't say a word. directly pulled the cat demon and prepared to go out, and then Lan Qi lay on the bed alone. Be prepared to take a break and do a task if you have time.

At this time, Mu Qing and the cat demon had already found the old blacksmith's house just now. Let's see if we can ask for some news: "Old man! Here I go again! ”

"Huh? The girl who came with that kid just now, what's the matter? The old man looked at Mu Qing casually, but his eyes were immediately attracted by the little cat demon next to him.

This little ghost, obviously I haven't seen him. Why does it sound so familiar?

The cat demon hid behind Mu Qing, as if he was a little afraid of this blacksmith.

"I'm here this time to ask about your master." She stroked the hair that had fallen from her ears and said.

Hearing her say that she was her master, her eyes shook slightly. Unconsciously closed his eyes and said slowly, "About my master...... When my master was young, he was the most famous blacksmith in the city. ”

Whether it's crafting utensils or weapons. That's all pretty good, and there are so many people who come to him every day. Even the government wanted him to make weapons and armor specifically for the soldiers, but they were all refused.

His reason is simple: 'I am a blacksmith, not for money.' It's craftsmanship, and I need to be responsible for my own work. Find something to build, and I do my best to sit as best I can. ’

Until one day, a demon hunter appeared. He came to my master with a few pieces of fine iron and a few bones of a monster.

Hopefully, he can build a 'Demon Slashing Sword', he has never tried to forge a sword from the bones of a monster. I've never seen a monster before.,I'm curious.。 He agreed, but he didn't expect it.

That was the beginning of the nightmare, in the next month or two. He's been figuring out how to build it, how to incorporate it into his sword.

By chance, his finger was accidentally cut. A drop of blood fell on the monster's bones.

Blood and bones fused together in an instant, and at that moment he thought that someone had once refined a sword with blood.

He used his own blood as an opportunity to forge this sword.

On the day this sword was completed, the heavens and the earth suddenly changed color. As if it couldn't accommodate the existence of this sword, a thunderbolt fell in the sky.

It hit the sword in the master's hand directly, which was better than the sword he held in his hand at that time.

So, it was very unfortunate to be killed by lightning.

I was still a little apprentice at the time, and I only learned a little bit about it. Unexpectedly, the master was killed by lightning like this.

I waited until the demon hunter came to fetch the sword.

But after waiting for a long time, suddenly one day, a group of people came here. I don't know where they heard that the master had created a demon slaying sword, so they came to ask for it.

I was too young to resist.

And this sword was also taken away by them.

Mu Qing nodded: "I see!" ”

In that case, it is very likely that the last soul was in that sword. But why haven't you felt it?

The cat demon pulled the corner of Mu Qing's clothes and whispered, "He lied!" ”

Looks like there's something else going on!

Then she said, "Thank you Master for explaining, then we will leave first." ”

"Hmm~~"

After leaving the blacksmith shop, Mu Qing looked at the cat demon and asked, "Do you know anything?" Tell me if you know! ”

He ...... It's the bad guys! Back then, he threatened...... Build him a sword. ...... That's what you said, that demon slashing sword. "This cat demon always stammers like this, it's really anxious to hear.

After its explanation, Mu Qing finally knew the answer.

It turned out that this person was the one who was looking for the old master to forge a sword. What he said about Master and the like, it's all nonsense.

In those days, after practicing the sword. But he couldn't meet the man's imaginary requirements, so he was angry. directly hacked the old blacksmith to death with this knife, and the sword was successfully opened.

"Hahaha! Stinky old man, you're hiding it from me. It turns out that with human blood, it can be consecrated. The man laughed as he looked at the blacksmith who had fallen to the ground and died, while the black cat roared at him with a hideous face.

"Where's the stinky cat? Get lost! The man kicked him out of the way and was ready to leave.

But as soon as he went out, he was captured by the soldiers of the city, because he was killing people in other cities and taking people's bones.

And those bones are not the overhead of some monster. but human bones, and the sword was forged from human bones.

Later, the sword was taken away by the government.
