Chapter 392: Ingenuity
Yujie and Qianmo decided to stay with Snow Girl, and a few of us men left. When I got back to my room, I sprinkled the bottle of gold dust all over the room, especially around the bed, as the blacksmith had told me. I spent two days in peace of mind, and sure enough, I didn't see anything dirty.
I was suddenly curious about the blacksmith's origins, which, according to the king, did not even give the king face.
On the third day, I had collected all the gold dust on the ground, and strangely enough, it was only more than half of what it was.
The princess's affairs can't be found out for the time being, and the king has arranged for Shaoqing to protect the princess around the clock, so there shouldn't be any danger. So I called Ling Xiao and Naranno to find the blacksmith this time.
As soon as the blacksmith saw me. When he came up, he asked, "How is the princess?" Is she okay? ”
Hey, last time I saw him look nosy. I didn't expect to be so concerned about the princess, "The princess is blessed with a great life, it's good!" ”
The blacksmith let out a sigh of relief, and asked, "Are you well acquainted with the princess?" ”
"It's okay! I've brought back the gold dust as you said, so what's next? "I don't want to talk to him, so I just go straight to the point and ask about the hundred poisonous Gu.
"Hehe, let you bring it back because these gold dust that has been touched by poison is very valuable, but it has nothing to do with destroying the Gu in you." The blacksmith said happily as he took the vial.
"Hey, don't do it. Listen to me first. "Seeing that I rolled up his sleeves, he was not so hippie and smiling, and I thought to myself that this man is really not serious.
The blacksmith obviously felt that he had lost face, and with a stern face, he cleared his throat and said. "I didn't want to help you, but seeing that you are a friend of the princess, I came to the rescue. The person who gave you Gu is going to put you to death, I will help you destroy this Gu, and none of you can leak the news, because once the other party knows that I have nothing to do with you, he will come up with more vicious tricks to deal with you. ”
I thought the blacksmith was a big man, but I didn't expect him to have such a careful mind, so I agreed, and then asked him how to do it.
"This poisonous Gu is poisonous and not easy to break, but there is a shortcoming, because the poison in that Gu already has spirituality and will, it is not completely subordinate to the person who makes the Gu. If we get rid of the poison Gu directly, the people who want to harm you will find out immediately, but if you control this poison Gu, this poison Gu will obey your command. ”
I thought about what he meant, it sounded like he wanted me to make this Gu my own, so that the people who harmed me wouldn't find out, and I could use it to help me do things. Winter Wai Double Garbage.
Thinking about this clearly, I thought it was quite plausible, so I quickly asked the blacksmith how to do it.
"Actually, one of the purposes for letting you sprinkle gold dust in the house before was to deter that poisonous Gu and at the same time shake its position. But then comes the hardest and most dangerous step. ”
He stopped and waited for my reaction, I was already in danger, so it didn't matter if I didn't take any risks, let the blacksmith continue.
"When the night comes, you can follow the shining gold dust and find the poisonous Gu. Then you need to feed it with the best beast spirit, and after it eats it, it will not only become stronger, but will also obey your commands in the future. ”
After the blacksmith finished speaking, he added, "The best beast spirit can be encountered but not sought, and it needs to be refined after obtaining it, so it depends on your chance." If this method doesn't work, you have to get rid of that poisonous Gu directly. ”
Naranno frowned after hearing this, but Ling Xiao and I didn't take it seriously at all, I took out the beast spirit of the giant python from before, and asked the blacksmith: "Is this quality okay?" ”
The blacksmith looked at it and nodded repeatedly, "You actually have such a perfect beast spirit, how long did you refine it to get it?" ”
Thinking that this blacksmith was introduced to me by the king, and now he was helping me break the Gu, I hesitated for a moment and told him: "Actually, I am a priest, and it is not difficult to take out the beast spirit or the ghost spirit. ”
"No wonder, no wonder!" The blacksmith was already looking at me with admiration, "Then you only need to find the poisonous Gu, but remember not to disturb it while it is eating, otherwise the consequences will be severe." ”
After saying that, there was still light in his eyes, and when I looked at it, his eyes fell on my waist again, could it be that he was still beating my arm idea?
I had better withdraw quickly, and after thanking the blacksmith, I turned around to leave, but he stopped me again.
"The last time I asked you to keep that jade arm, it wasn't because I wanted to occupy it, maybe I was too excited at the time, so you misunderstood."
When he said that, I was curious, "So what do you want to keep it for?" ”
"This jade arm of yours is very good, but don't you think it's inconvenient to use it every time? And this thing is very conspicuous, I'm afraid it's easy to be targeted! ”
"I once asked someone to hide it in an umbrella, but it broke down quickly. Later, I got used to it, and I couldn't use it even if someone else took it. ”
The blacksmith laughed when he heard this, "Umbrella? Hahaha! This idea is not very good, there are countless ghosts condensed in this jade arm, how can it be imprisoned by mortal things? Why don't I help you refine this arm into a sacrificial knife? It also matches your identity as a priest! ”
Hearing him say this, I laughed, this is the same as the original Hebei man begging to see my Qinglong Wadang, this is the heart that a craftsman should have, but
"To tell you the truth, this arm has a very special meaning to me, this is my grandmother's own arm that she cut off to save me, and then it helped me through a lot of difficulties, so I don't want to"
"Since it was left to you by your grandmother, then you have to keep it well! I will refine the essence of the jade arm and inject it into the weapon, this arm is still jade, you can keep it as a souvenir, how about it? ”
I have to say that his words made me moved, if it can really be like this, of course, but what if he messes up? Wouldn't I be dumbfounded! Ling Xiao also advised me to be cautious.
The blacksmith saw that we didn't trust him very much, pouted, and mysteriously led us to the back room.
"Let me show you what I'm capable of!"
He moved the Eight Immortals table against the wall, pressed a mechanism on the wall, and a secret door 'boomed' up, the door glowed slightly red, and before I even entered, I was already attracted by the power released by the things inside, and Ling Xiao and Naranno also became excited.
When we walked into the room, we were completely stunned, there were all kinds of weapons on the floor, on the wall, on the table, with pointed, bladed, chained, it can be called a dazzling array of everything.
"How's that, isn't it an eye-opener? It's all my doing! The blacksmith was so proud as he said this, and he introduced us like a treasure, and I found that all of these weapons had names and surnames.
I was about to pick up a dazzling-looking longbow when the blacksmith told me not to move.
"Every weapon here is spiritual, and some of them have owners, but they haven't been taken yet. The longbow belongs to a son, and you will only feel uncomfortable holding it in your hand. ”
I obediently took my hand back, and after the blacksmith showed us around, he asked me again, "Now do you believe in my craft?" ”
Before I could speak, Ling Xiao and Naranno had already nodded their heads one after another, and their eyes were full of admiration when they looked at the blacksmith, which may be the natural love of men for weapons.
Still, I was not at ease about giving him the arm of the milk, and I decided to go back and ask the king's opinion, for he had introduced me after all, and he must have known the blacksmith as a man.
When I told him that I wanted to think about it again, he didn't urge me, but said with a smile: "The person who can help you refine this jade arm, I'm afraid I'm the only one in the entire evil ghost world, you go back and think about it, hahaha!" ”
After bidding farewell to the old blacksmith and returning to the castle, I immediately went to the king and explained the situation to him. When the king heard that the blacksmith was going to make me a weapon, he laughed.
"He's still the same! You can rest assured that he will leave it to him, this person's attitude towards weapons is very persistent, and he will not deceive you, I can guarantee it with my personality! ”
