For this, Zhou Yue didn't care at all, at the moment he was interested, so he continued to forge, and soon put into it, and the effect of each forging was slightly improved, after trying to forge more than a dozen iron ingots in one go, he finally succeeded in forging a steel ingot of different quality, although there is still a rough prefix in front, but steel is steel, and the quality of iron has been improved by a level. ｛｝

(Note, please ignore scientific common sense, although I also know that ordinary small stoves can't make steel even if they are tired)

Looking at the rough steel ingot that was still extremely hot, but it was already showing a faint luster, the pride in Zhou Yue's heart was simply indescribable, and this sense of accomplishment was not comparable to anything else.

Next, Zhou Yue carefully put aside the steel ingot that he had so hard forged, because he had suddenly changed his mind now, and he felt that he might be able to build a few light and heavy swords.

The jingling sound sounded again, half an hour passed, an hour passed, the sun gradually shifted, until the afternoon, when Zhou Yue took over the old blacksmith's forging task for the 123rd time, the old blacksmith, who had always been unrelenting and indifferent, finally raised his head, looked at Zhou Yue and said: "Young man, you are still the first time you have met in the old decay for so many years, such a strange little guy, no one can forge all the inventory of the old decay in half a day, and the quality is not bad, young man, Would you like to learn some crafts from the old man? ”

"Di, Song Wenshen, your behavior has made the old blacksmith Sun Darong very satisfied, he wants to take you as an apprentice, do you agree?"

……

Zhou Yue was stunned, he really didn't expect that there would be such a hidden task, but unfortunately, he was not interested, so he immediately refused this information without hesitation, and at the same time said very tactfully: "Thank you old donor, the poor monk will leave this place in a few days, I am afraid it will be difficult to obey his fate, not to mention, my Buddhist disciple, how inconvenient it is!" ”

As soon as Zhou Yue's words came out, before the old blacksmith could say anything, he heard someone laughing in the distance, it wasn't the idiot Qin Qi, who else.

Zhou Yue turned his head and glared at him fiercely, turned around, and put his hands together in a pretended manner, but fortunately, the old blacksmith was not affected, but said unhurriedly: "That's fine, but is the monk going to Yangzhou?" It is said that there are quite a few master-level blacksmiths in Yangzhou City, the craftsmanship is superb, there is the magic of heaven and earth, but it is a pity that the old decay is tied up here, but there is no chance to see, although the monk is dedicated to the Buddha, but outside the Dharma, study the forging method, think of the Buddha will not be surprised. ”

Speaking of this, the old blacksmith blinked his eyes for great amusement, and continued: "In the early years, the old man can also be regarded as traveling in Yangzhou, among which there are three major blacksmith shops, namely Ruijin, Wang Hezi, and Black Iron Society. ”

……

Zhou Yue listened patiently, he thought that the old blacksmith would provide him with other tasks, but unexpectedly, it was over, so that he was not surprised, he didn't understand what the old guy was doing with all this nonsense?

Are there three blacksmith shops in Yangzhou City? Don't be kidding, Zhou Yue, as a prince, he knows too well the importance of blacksmiths, his armor workshop, which is guarded by heavy soldiers, not to mention that ordinary people dare to approach, even those soldiers under him, or some high-level people, dare to approach at will without getting his Zhou Yue's order or the supervisor's order, they will be shot unconditionally.

He is still like this, so although Yang Guang claims to be Emperor Yang of Sui, he is not a faint monarch, he will let these three major blacksmith companies casually contact ordinary people?

Therefore, Zhou Yue didn't pay attention to it at all, but just as he turned around, the old blacksmith suddenly said casually, "Monk, are you going to forge a few steel swords?" You, a monk, don't look authentic at first glance, where is there a monk with a steel sword? Of course, the old decay will also say casually, if you have finished forging, you can send it to check with the old decay, the old decay is very curious, in addition, if there is a lack of materials, although to take it, you don't have to be polite. ”

"It's okay, thank you, old people!"

Zhou Yue wanted to talk about the old benefactor, but this old man was not simple at first glance, so he didn't pretend.

Next, Zhou Yue rested a little, and then started to do it again, this time he forged all for himself, due to the increase in experience, the probability of success in forging rough steel ingots was also increasing, and finally, he actually accumulated twenty-five rough steel ingots for himself, that is, exactly twenty-five catties.

However, the steel ingot is no problem, but how to forge it into a sword is another topic, seeing that the sky is about to darken, Zhou Yue is also quite anxious, because he still doesn't know if this blacksmith shop will continue to open at night? When the time comes, if he doesn't even forge a light sword, wouldn't it be a joke?

At this time, the old blacksmith walked over, and after a casual glance with his cloudy old eyes, he said: "Yes, being able to forge a crude steel ingot from a crude iron ingot is not something that ordinary people can do, but monk, you don't seem to have any experience in sword casting, right?" Maybe you can finish the next half month's work of the old man by yourself today, and the old man will be reluctant to help you once, tell me, what kind of sword weapon do you want? ”

This is naturally a sleepy pillow, of course Zhou Yue will not refuse, and hurriedly thanked him, and said at the same time: "I want to cast a light sword and a heavy sword, I don't know what you have to build old man?" ”

"Hmph, you little monk, your character is too bad!" The old blacksmith snorted, and then continued: "But about sword casting, the old man is not an expert, it is said that this sword weapon, that is very different, in everyone's hands, there are a thousand, ten thousand kinds of sword casting methods, but don't expect it, the old man is just the lowest blacksmith, and now he will only have the roughest sword casting method, and get out of the way!" ”

The old blacksmith said, but his beard was all open, his sleeves were rolled up, and he was in good spirits, not to mention anything else, just this spirit and spirit, that is, a first-class existence.

At this time, I saw that the old blacksmith first grabbed out a handful of black crumbs out of nowhere, as if it was cinders, and threw this handful of cinders directly into the furnace, and suddenly the flames in it rose, and the temperature suddenly rose several times, Zhou Yue stood far away, and felt very scorching.

And this fire is quite weird, the more it grows, the more it grows, there is no need for bellows at all, and in the blink of an eye, even the sealing wall outside the furnace is burned red.

At this time, I saw the old blacksmith exhale, and grabbed the twenty-five rough steel ingots forged by Zhou Yue, and threw them in with a kind of three-point dunk accuracy, at the same time, I don't know what else he threw in, his movements were too fast, so that Zhou Yue was a little dazzled, but Zhou Yue dared to guarantee that the old blacksmith must have added extra ingredients, which can be determined.

At this time, in the blink of an eye, the twenty-five steel ingots had turned into red molten steel, and what was even more incredible was that there was a strange mist rising on the surface of the molten steel, which looked like an illusion.

Zhou Yue still wanted to take a closer look, but the old blacksmith was very fast, and when he raised his hand, he took out a sword mold with a simple pattern from nowhere, and then snapped, and the bucket of molten steel was dumped so accurately and ruthlessly, and what was even more amazing was that there was no molten steel splashed out at all, just like the Lanzhou ramen in the hands of the noodle master, quite artistic!

As soon as the molten steel entered the sword mold, the old blacksmith on this side took out a handful of things that were the same as the salt surface again, the blue was incomparable, and the brush was sprinkled, only to hear a sound of stabbing and lala, and the molten steel solidified so quickly, followed by the old man holding a sledgehammer in one hand and a small hammer in the other, with a snap, he didn't even dismantle the sword mold, he crackled and smashed it down, it was almost blind to see Zhou Yue's eyes, your sister, I have never seen such a fierce sword-casting method!

Immediately afterwards, the old blacksmith smashed at least three hundred hammers in one go, and the result, including the sword mold, was all one, if he hadn't witnessed the whole thing, Zhou Yue wouldn't have believed it, this was actually together, isn't it a joke? The reason why the sword model is a sword model is that it is not a sword!

But at this time, the old blacksmith was also majestic and had a huge aura, and Zhou Yue couldn't say anything, so he could only watch.

Finally, when the sword had a look, the old blacksmith suddenly shouted, "Bring me the wine!" ”

Zhou Yue was frightened, he was also quite impressed at this time, seeing that the other guys were indifferent, he directly took out a jar of the best Xinghua Village from his storage ring, which is the kind that can restore 10,000 points of health, and handed it directly.

Strange to say, the old blacksmith saw this altar of the best apricot blossom village, the corners of his mouth suddenly grinned silently, and there was a moment of strangeness in his expression, and then he very regretfully cooed the cow and drank at least half of it, and the remaining half was brushed and poured all over the sword.

At this moment, the green smoke curled, the aroma of wine hit people, and a wisp of light sound, both real and illusory, wafted away!

Looking at the sword weapon that was still on the anvil, Zhou Yue suddenly gasped, and he just wanted to cast a passable light sword, this Nima, it seems, the reality is even fuller than imagined!

Just at a glance, he fell in love with this light sword, just like a dick silk took a fancy to a certain beauty at a glance, pure, beautiful, gentle, beautiful, as cold as a snow-capped mountain, as clear as spring water, as gentle as the night wind, heaven and earth, it is as if it is a collection of thousands of favors.

For a while, Zhou Yue's saliva was about to flow out.

"Wow! What a beautiful sword, grandpa, you're really powerful! ”

At this time, before Zhou Yue could come up with any words to describe it, a very surprised voice behind him had already sounded.

"Why are you again? Are you annoyed? No matter how beautiful it is, it's not yours! Zhou Yue said irritably for no reason, this woman is really good, and she has been with him all day as if she is ghostly.

"Hey, monk, monks are not allowed to speak falsely, if you have anger, you can be regarded as one of the eight precepts, and the little girl is also a good intention, you don't want to be indiscriminate, hum, if she hadn't taken the family heirloom and asked me to help you build it, you are still staring at it now, less nonsense, do you want to continue to build your heavy sword?" At this time, the old blacksmith opened his mouth to speak for Qin Qi.

But this remark also made Zhou Yue stunned, it turned out that Qin Qi invited this old man, and returned the family heirloom treasure, your sister, it was completely messy.

At this time, Zhou Yue had no choice but to shut up, but then again, although this old blacksmith is an intermediate blacksmith, this forging level is not ordinarily good.

Taking the sword weapon that was still extremely hot, Zhou Yue's whole mind was going to be agitated, and the first feeling he had in his hand was to take advantage of it, very much! There is a word that pops up in an instant, like an arm command!

The weight of this sword is about a little more than three catties, and I don't know where the rest of the weight went, the length is three feet and nine inches, in fact, it is 110 centimeters, and the width of the blade is 2. About 6 centimeters, it seems to be a little narrower than ordinary sword weapons, and the sword spine, that is, the back of the sword in the center of the sword body, is obviously thicker and steeper than other sword weapons, actually one centimeter thick, so it looks like this sword weapon is very thick.

And in the position of the tip of the sword, it is even more special, not the ordinary sharp triangle, but, similar to the twelve-sided edges, that is to say, with the back of the sword body as the center, it is divided into four parts, each sword tip is composed of three edges and corners, and then it becomes the twelve-sided edges and corners, very, very exquisite, this kind of craftsmanship can be called a miracle skill, in Zhou Yue's understanding, such a sword tip, the thrust power will be stronger, which is very suitable for the attack of the three-ring moon, and because the sword body is narrowed, it is about one centimeter narrower than the normal sword weapon, so, The speed of stabbing is fast, and the speed of pulling out is also fast.

Especially with the twelve-sided edges and corners, even very hard armor can be quickly broken through.

For a while, Zhou Yue even had the illusion that this sword weapon forged by this old blacksmith was tailor-made for his three-ring moon attack skills!

In addition, this sword body actually presents a water-blue brilliance, which is very strange, it seems that at the last moment of forging, the special effect caused by the half of the old wine of Xinghua Village splashed on it, reflecting the change of firelight, it looks like water waves are flowing.

And what is even more amazing is that in this blue halo, you can occasionally see faintly, there are some mysterious patterns floating up, ups and downs, faintly, quite a kind of sunset and lonely birds fly together, the autumn water is the same color of the spectacular illusion.

At the position closest to the hilt of the sword, there is a carved mark of an ancient plum tree, which looks simple but is full of simplicity.

However, at this time, when Zhou Yue looked at the attributes of this sword weapon again, he couldn't help pouting, he was very disappointed, it was a divine turn!

Originally, he thought that a sword weapon with such a wonderful appearance would not be earth-shattering, but at least it had to be of golden quality, but he didn't expect that this was actually a tabula rasa weapon.

"Plum blossom ancient sword, white quality, this is made by the blacksmith in the poor countryside town, although it is known as the ancient sword, and carved plum blossoms from it, but also is to sell the reputation of fishing, Dong Shi imitates, hanging sheep's head to sell dog meat! Not enough for everyone either. ”

"HP +20, Stamina +20, Strength +20, Agility +20, Defense +20, Attack +20, Endurance 100/100."
