Chapter 5 Introduction to Apprenticeship
"Learning the Machine?" Yun Fei looked at Tie Cheng suspiciously.
Tie Cheng explained: "It's just like me, to become a blacksmith. ”
Thinking of the original intention of coming to this world, Yun Fei didn't want to be a blacksmith, so he couldn't help but politely refuse: "Thank you Uncle Tie for taking care of you." It's just that I want to go out into the outside world, so I'm sorry, Uncle Tie. ”
"Is that so, but you ......" Tie Cheng shook his head, looking like he wanted to say something.
Yun Fei asked, "But what?"
"Nothing. Tie Cheng thought for a moment and explained, "Oh, even being a blacksmith doesn't make you give up your fighting profession, you can still go out and explore the world." With that, Tie Cheng stood up, packed up his tools, and said to himself: "It seems that we need to make some pistols for the village boys, they should like it." ”
Seeing Tie Cheng's bleak back, Yun Fei couldn't bear it, plus Tie Cheng said that it would not hinder going out on adventures, thought about it, and said, "Uncle Tie, if you don't dislike me, I'll learn to be a blacksmith with you." ”
Tie Cheng's body immediately paused, turned around, stared at Yun Fei, and said after a while: "Since this is the case, then you can come with me." ”
After Tie Cheng finished speaking, he took Yun Fei to the inner room, passed through several doors, and came to a dimly lit room. Tie Cheng lit the candle, and the room suddenly brightened.
This is a spiritual chamber. There is an incense table in the room, on which are placed several spiritual tablets.
Tie Cheng lit the incense candle, bowed three times, and then inserted the incense candle, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times, and said: "The ancestors and the ancestors are above, and the unfilial son Tie Cheng wants to accept a disciple with a foreign surname, and I am here to show the ancestors." ”
After saying that, Tie Cheng stood up and shouted, "New disciple Yun Fei kneels. ”
Yun Fei did as he said and knelt on the ground.
Tie Cheng lit three more incense candles and continued, "Follow me. The ancestor is above, and the disciple Yunfei wants to join the Tie family today, learn the method of making instruments and endow the spirit, and carry forward the skills of the lineage, and will definitely live up to the trust of the ancestors. ”
Yun Fei said: "The ancestor is above, and the disciple Yun Fei wants to join the Tie clan today, learn the method of making instruments and endow the spirit, and carry forward the skills of the original lineage, and will definitely live up to the trust of the ancestors." ”
Tie Cheng handed the incense candle to Yun Fei, Yun Fei took it, respectfully inserted it on the incense table, and then kowtowed three times.
Suddenly, a pillar of green light fell from the sky, enveloping Yun Fei. After a while, it disappeared again.
Yun Fei was puzzled: "This is?"
Tie Cheng explained: "This is the revelation that the patriarch of this sect has sent down his grace and allowed you to enter. Alright, get up. ”
Yun Fei stood up respectfully and said, "Yes, master." ”
Tie Cheng nodded with satisfaction, then handed a thread-bound book to Yun Fei and said, "This is the method of empowering the soul of this sect maker." You take it, watch it a lot, think about it, and practice it diligently. You know what?"
Yun Fei took it with both hands and said respectfully, "Yes, master." ”
The two then walked out of the dark room and went to the place where they usually made weapons. Yun Fei walked and flipped through the books.
The title of the book is "The Secret Book of the Instrument Spirit - Instrument Making". Yun Fei took a look at it, mainly explaining the essence of the method of making tools, as well as the identification and selection of various mineral materials, as well as the processing and usage of some biological materials, as well as some detailed explanations of pictures and texts.
Yun Fei looked at it strangely, pointed to one of the illustrations, and asked, "Master, is there really a phoenix in this world?"
Tie Cheng affirmed: "Naturally, there is. ”
"The world is really colorful. Yun Fei was amazed.
Tie Cheng wondered, "What?"
"Nothing. Yun Fei hurriedly changed the topic, pointed to the feathers in the picture and asked, "Master, have you ever seen this phoenix feather?"
Tie Cheng smiled: "Hahaha, how have I ever seen that legendary artifact." When I was young, I heard my father tell me that when my ancestor was an apprentice, I saw many strange things with my grandfather, including this phoenix feather. It is said to have miraculous effects such as gathering spirits and strengthening flames. But the most amazing thing is the essence blood of the phoenix. It can live and die with flesh and bones, and it can not only refine miraculous medicines, but also the supreme holy product for refining weapons and armor. ”
"Well, that's a big deal. Yunfei just listened to it as a story, and didn't really pursue it, and flipped through the atlas by himself. A thin book, about a hundred or so pages.
Yun Fei only flipped through it roughly, but he didn't find what he was looking for, so he couldn't help but wonder if he said, "Master, are all the strange things recorded in the book?"
Tie Cheng shook his head and smiled: "There are millions of strange things in the world, how can there be so many records in the book." This book is the notes and experiences of the ancestors, and the drawings and shapes are also the things that the ancestors saw, and they cannot remember completely. Seeing Yun Fei's expression of distress, Tie Cheng couldn't help but say, "Fei'er, what is unspeakable about you?"
The title of "Fei'er", the thunderous cloud flies on the outside and is tender on the inside. But thinking about Tie Cheng's age, it is more than enough to be his own father, and he already worships him as a teacher, so this affectionate title can only be recognized by pinching his nose.
Yun Fei took out an earthy yellow bead from his clothes, held it in his hand and said, "Master, do you recognize this thing?"
"What is this?" Tie Cheng picked up the beads, looked at them carefully for a long time, and said suspiciously: "This can't be a mud ball you pinched randomly, right? With that, Tie Cheng also gestured to the plaster on his hand, which obviously fell from playing with the beads just now.
Yun Fei took the bead awkwardly, and said with little confidence: "Maybe, probably, it should be a good thing." It's a pity that the guy who gave it to me didn't tell me what it was, and I don't know what it was for. And when I received the beads, he was still glowing with colorful lights, but the next day, it became like this...... The shape of the mud ball. ”
Tie Cheng said suspiciously: "Who gave it to you?"
Yun Fei said: "It's a person named Jia Jia, who claims to be a god. ”
"Immortals?" Tie Cheng said: "It can't be a lie to you, right? This thing, no matter how you look at it, looks like a ball of mud." What did you trade with him?"
Yun Fei didn't want to talk about that world, he just shook his head and said, "He shouldn't lie to me, and there's no need for this." ”
"Well, is that so?" Tie Cheng pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and suggested, "Why don't we ask Village Elder Zhao." His ancestors were well-informed and probably knew what it was. About you like my Tie clan, by the way, I also informed him. ”
"Okay, master. ”
The two of them said goodbye, got up and hurried to the wooden house of the village chief of Zhaoyang.
Village chief Zhao Yang was sitting on a chair in front of the house with his eyes closed and basking in the sun. Hearing the movement, Village Chief Zhao raised his head and saw that it was Tie Cheng who flew over with Yunfei, but he straightened up and didn't get up. Zhao Yang said calmly: "Lao Tie, why did you have time to come to me today?"
Tie Cheng smiled: "Haha, I saw that Yunfei was a smart and clever kid, so I accepted him as a disciple and came to inform you." ”
"Oh, that's a great welcome. Zhao Yang clasped his hands into fists, arched, and said: "This is a happy thing, the village has not imported Tianding for a long time, and there should have been a banquet." It's just that the wolf plague is breaking out right now, and the food is insufficient, so it's not suitable for ......."
"It's okay, it's okay. Tie Cheng waved his hand again and again, and then smiled, "I'll just tell you, forget about those red tape and the like." ”
"Well, thank you for being able to understand the difficulties in the village. Zhao Yang arched his hand and nodded to Yun Fei again.
Yun Fei responded with a smile.
Tie Cheng smiled again and changed the topic: "When the ancestors settled here, it was three hundred years in the blink of an eye. When I was a child, I heard my father say that when the Heavenly Palace was prosperous, there were countless rare treasures, which made me yearn for it. It's just a pity ......"
Zhao Yang also sighed: "Prosperity and decline, about the same." The prosperity of the world is as unpredictable as heaven's heart. Alas......"
"Alas!" Tie Cheng sighed as well.
Zhao Yang suddenly smiled and said, "Eh, if you have something, just say it directly, it doesn't have to be like this." Wen Zou Zou's, this is not like your style, I listen to it, it's weird and uncomfortable. ”
"Hey......" Tie Cheng himself laughed first, and said with a smile: "I also said awkwardly." However, since you became the village chief, the shelf has also gotten bigger. ”
"I don't want to either!" Zhao Yang stood up, shook his head and said, "It's just that the burden of the whole village is on me, and I have to do this." It's called that, stay calm. Anyone in the village can panic, but I can't mess around. Otherwise, the village probably wouldn't be able to hold on to it now. ”
"Well, this is a strange treasure obtained by the apprentice, and I don't know what it is. Your ancestors are well-informed, maybe there is some record, you can help me see. Tie Cheng said, handing the beads to Zhao Yang.
Zhao Yang didn't take it, but smiled and said: "Lao Tie, you won't come to tease me with intention! Isn't this just the mud pills pinched by children? We used to rub them together when we were children." ”
"What am I kidding you? Tie Cheng said, and stuffed the beads into Zhao Yang's hands.
Zhao Yang smiled and said, "Then I don't care if I break it." ”
Tie Cheng smiled: "Even if you pinch it, I will eat it on the spot if you pinch it." ”
"I pinch...... Hey...... Eh, why can't you pinch it? What's going on, this ......."
Tie Cheng smiled strangely: "Have you not eaten? Take out the strength you used to eat and make a little effort!"
"you. Zhao Yang smashed the bead at Tie Cheng in shame.
Tie Cheng grabbed it neatly with his hands and feet, and said with a smile: "How about it, it's not a mud ball, right?!"
Zhao Yang glared at Tie Cheng angrily, then looked at the beads in Tie Cheng's hand, and muttered vaguely: "Hmm." ”
"Any eyebrows?" Tetsu Cheng asked.
Zhao Yang said: "Not for the time being, wait until I finish checking the classics, you can go back today." ”
Tie Cheng said: "Okay, let me know if you have any eyebrows." ”
"Got it. ”
