In the smelting city, there are six walls to divide the central avenue into six sections, and the avenue within each section of the wall is neatly inhabited by more than a dozen families on both sides.

"Young master!"

"The young master is back!!"

The residents greeted him happily when they saw Ouyang Kui, who was walking in front of Yukimura and the others, and Ouyang Kui would also take out his hand behind his back from time to time and respond with a smile.

"I didn't expect you to be quite loved by the people of Smelting City!" Ouyang Kui has maintained this kind of love since he entered the city, which makes Qiu'er very incomprehensible.

"Of course! The fact that Smelting City can have today is all the credit of my Ouyang family! Ouyang Kui said with a smug face.

"What's the spirit... It's not your Ouyang Kui's credit! ”

Qiu'er muttered quietly.

"Eh, why is your smelting city like this?"

As he was about to enter the first inner wall, Yukimura asked, patting against the solid wall.

"You don't know this, although the smelting city is a whole, there are also six sub-cities, these six sub-cities are not related to each other except for the different processes of smelting and casting, and the sub-city lords are directly led by our Ouyang family!"

Ouyang Kui introduced.

"In this way, the six hall masters outside the city are the city lords of these six branch cities." Linluo recalled the scene when the six hall masters fought with Yukimura, in fact, these six hall masters can be said to be not weak, and even if Linluo did not subdue the demonic beast, it would still take some means to win him, the reason why Yukimura was able to get him done in an instant was because now Yukimura was a god, and they were not at the same level at all, not to mention that judging from the behavior of these six people, these six hall masters should be the weakest among the six, and the strength of the first five people must be higher than one, especially the one-eyed hall master Ouyang Hua, they are just six people, If it weren't for the city lords of these six sub-cities, it would be strange.

"The hero of Linluo has good eyesight! Those six are the city lords of the divided city! Ouyang Kui gave a thumbs up and praised.

"Since it's the city lord of the sub-city, it's good to call the city lord directly, why do you have a hall master, it's really funny!" Ever since Qiu'er knew that Ouyang Kui was a playboy, she had been cold-mouthed and seemed to hate this kind of person.

"Miss Qiu'er only knows that the smelting process is shared by the six sub-cities, but she doesn't know that they are also the six halls that my father raised to guard the smelting city, and my father has distributed powerful swords to the six hall masters, and then teaches them their own swordsmanship, combined with an inner city wall, it will become a solid barrier that is easy to defend and difficult to attack!" Ouyang Kui is proud every time he mentions his father.

"Wow!! It seems that this sacrificial sword must be a particularly grand and fun ceremony, and the six hall masters actually went to guard the gate of the smelting city together! ”

Yin Yang ginseng and the doll giggled and poked out half of their heads from Yukimura's arms, and said excitedly.

"You haven't spoken since you came in, why?"

Xingtian saw that Yukimura was unusual, so he asked with divine breath.

"Somehow, I actually feel a very familiar aura here, but I can't tell what it is... Yukimura frowned, looking preoccupied.

"Where does this breath come from?"

"The innermost part of the city!"

Yukimura looked at the wall in front of him, and he had a vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

"The residents of the first branch city are responsible for the process of mining and selecting materials!"

Ouyang Kui and Linluo walked in the front, and introduced him to the six sub-cities of the Ouyang family with great interest.

"I saw them selecting materials at home, but where is the mining?" When he heard the clanging sound of iron, he secretly observed the mountain next to the city, and found no one mining iron ore on it.

"Here!"

Ouyang Kui mysteriously stomped on the ground and continued: "We need a lot of iron ore every day, but fortunately there is an inexhaustible underground iron ore group here!" ”

"You're saying that these six sub-cities are a huge mine underneath?" Linluo also stomped on the ground with his foot, and sure enough, the sound was very different from that of ordinary ground.

"Exactly! All the mined iron ore was selected into three grades by the first branch city lord and the six hall lords and sent to the second branch city for smelting. ”

Walking in the second branch city, several people obviously felt that the temperature was higher than elsewhere, and even began to wipe the sweat from their foreheads due to the heat.

In this second city, every house has a firing furnace made of yellow mud at the door of the house, and the man is naked, leading the boiled iron juice to the prepared stone trough, and the woman is taking care of the children while adding firewood to the stove.

"This branch city belongs to the Lord of the Five Halls?" Linluo asked.

"Yes, the Fifth Hall Master and the Fourth Hall Master are twin brothers, the Fifth Hall City will smelt the selected iron ore into molten iron, and the Fourth Hall Lord will lead the residents of the Four Branches City to preliminarily shape the molten iron."

When he came to Sifen City, Ouyang Kui pointed to a thick stone culvert and introduced it to Linluo.

The molten iron from the city flowed out along dozens of culverts, and the residents of the city took molds to let the iron flow into the tank.

"That's still a simpler job in this four-point city!"

Linluo said as he looked at the residents who were receiving the iron juice.

Ouyang Kui smiled and said: "Actually, it's not necessarily true, the shaping of the Sifencheng not only needs to grasp the absolute accuracy of the time of receiving the juice, but after the shaping is done, these iron materials are also transported to the Sanfencheng for distribution!" ”

"What does it mean to divide the platform?" Linluo understands the casting process a little, and the word "sub-platform" is the first time I have heard of it.

"Come with me!"

Under the leadership of Ouyang Kui, the group came to the three-point city, which is the quietest one, different from other branches, most of the busy people sitting at the table here are women, they take the pile of iron materials in front of the table in their hands for a careful inspection, and then tie the red, white, and black silk threads at the end of the iron materials and stack them separately.

"Guess who I am?"

Ouyang Kui quietly came behind a strange-looking woman and reached out to cover her eyes, imitating a female voice and asked.

"It's Ling'er!"

"That's not right!"

"It's spring appreciation!"

"Guess again!"

"Eh! Stop making a fuss! When my sister comes back from guarding the city, it depends on how much work we do! The woman said anxiously.

"Beauty, you only care about work, have you ever thought about your brother Kui in your heart?" Ouyang Kui took away his hands and replied to his original voice. The women who were working on the side laughed and trembled.

"Young master!? How are you ... Eh, you're dead ... Seeing that it was Ouyang Kui trying to tease herself, the beauty suddenly flushed with shame, and immediately stood up and bowed her head.

"Why can't it be this young master? I was very worried about you for a few days on this trip, so I came to visit you for the first time! Have you missed me lately? ”

Ouyang Kui asked with a smile.

"Back to the young master, Jiao Yue has been busy with the sisters and has never thought about anything other than work!" The beauty avoided Ouyang Kui's hot eyes and replied.

"What a conscience! Forget it, for the sake of your sister working so hard for my Ouyang family, this is for you! ”

Ouyang Kui took out a box from his arms and handed it to Jiao Yue.

"What's it this time again..." Jiao asked curiously.

"This is the Xijun Ji family's anti-face-fixing pill Luoxia Dan, taking one a day can protect the youth, the face is rejuvenated, the eldest lady of the Ji family Ji Luoxia is known as the first beauty in the continent by relying on this medicine, this young master finally asked for a bottle to give you!" Ouyang Kui took the medicine bottle and talked eloquently, picking the big one and saying.

"Thank you, young master!" Jiaoyue took Luoxia Dan and thanked her again and again.

"Does this Luoxia Pill really have this miraculous effect? Do you have any more? Qiu'er, who had been looking at Ouyang Kui on the sidelines, immediately searched Ouyang Kui directly after hearing about the miraculous effect of Luo Xia Dan.

"It's gone! Gone! What are you going to do? So many people are watching! Ouyang Kui was obviously frightened by Qiu'er's actions, and retreated in a panic.

At this time, Linluo, who is rarely nosy, stepped forward and pulled Qiu'er back.

"What are you doing? I asked him what happened to Luo Xia Dan? Qiu'er asked puzzled.

"Fake, the Ji family doesn't have this kind of elixir at all."

Linluo put his mouth to Qiu'er's ear and whispered.

"Huh?"

Qiu'er was taken aback when she heard this, and she casually turned her eyes white, cleared her throat, and said loudly: "Young Master Ouyang, let's let go of the wind and rain, snow and moon first?" We've got business to do! ”

"Oh! Look at my memory! Where are we? ”

Ouyang Kui stopped talking to Jiaoyue and turned around to ask Linluo.

"Split!"

Linluo coughed dryly, trying to relieve the somewhat awkward atmosphere at the scene.

"Yes, yes, yes! Divide the platform, this is the branch, this group of fairy-looking girls will carefully select the iron materials, divide them into three grades to mark, and then hand them over to the second hall master to lead the foundries of the two divisions to cast the furnace casting! ”

"I guess the second hall master is also iron-struck, which can be seen from his figure!"

Yukimura stopped thinking about the source of the familiar aura and joined in the conversation.

Ouyang Kui listened and corrected: "It's not iron, it's casting, the second hall master Ouyang Zhi is the best caster in the smelting city, and the personal blades of the six hall masters are all from him!" ”

"Then take us to the two branches of the city and go over and have a look? Why are you still here? ”

Qiu'er said deliberately.

When they came to the city of two points, the sound of clanging knocks instantly sounded in everyone's ears, and all the residents here were processing and forming the sword material in front of the casting platform, occasionally dipping the fiery red sword body into the water to make a crisp sound.

Noticing that the silk threads hanging from the end of the sword material placed next to the casting platform were all white, Linluo touched the sword material and said: "I see that the material of these sword materials is still good, but are they all defective?" ”

"You're right, we have extremely high requirements for sword materials, hanging white silk thread can only make ordinary swords, black silk thread is more advanced, red silk thread is the best product! The inhabitants here can only cast ordinary sword materials, and the high-grade sword materials are cast by the disciples of the second hall master, and the best products are cast by himself! ”

Too lazy to look at these shirtless men, after a short pause and condolences, Ouyang Kui led everyone directly to the city wall leading to Yifen City.

"Young Master Ouyang, I guess this branch is made of scabbards, hilts and spikes, right?" Yukimura was confident in his speculation.

"No, no! Brother Yukimura, your judgment is far worse than that of Linluo Shaoxia, Yifen City is the most elite branch of Smelting City, where can you do such superficial work? Ouyang Kui replied with a smile.

"Which process is that branch city responsible for?" Yukimura didn't think he had guessed wrong, and he was a little incredulous.

"I guess Yifencheng is in charge of cutting and testing swords!"

Qiu'er glared at the nervous Yukimura and said.

"I didn't expect the girl to be so witty and intelligent in addition to being like a fairy... Ouyang Kui boasted and unconsciously stretched out his hand to touch Qiu'er's hand, but was opened by Qiu'er, so he touched the injured hand and said: "Miss Qiu'er is right, this branch city is to open and test all the swords that are cast, you see!" ”

Ouyang Kui said, pointing to the wooden shelves in front of every household in Yifen City.

"Those are the ones used to test the sword? What a thick wooden frame! ”

Looking at the occasional resident trying out his sword by the wooden frame, Qiu'er sighed and said.
