Seventy-two, errands
"Senior brother, you can help me say hello to Bai Jianchun, but I won't be able to go to the party the day after tomorrow. "www.biquge.info The next day, Chen Peng arrived at the Chuangong Hall early in the morning, listened to Ximeng Daogu's lecture, and told Wu You about his recent situation.
"Don't worry. I think it's better for us to keep a low profile during this time, and not to get into trouble. I went to the Alchemy Hall yesterday and received an errand, but this errand asked me to process the medicinal materials of alchemy into semi-finished products. This process, dewatering, baking, and refining, is very complicated. I studied for a day, and I didn't have a clue at all, and I couldn't get started at all. After getting off work yesterday, I went to see Bai Jianchun and heard him say that in this Xigeng faction, the first hard task is to train Yuan steel and Yuan copper ingots, and the second hard task is to process alchemy medicinal materials. I've been assigned such a difficult errand, and I think you're likely to be assigned the hardest errand in the Refining Hall. ”
"Hmph," Chen Peng snorted coldly, "It's not very possible, but it's definitely an errand that will definitely be assigned to train Yuan Gang and Yuan Copper ingots." The elders of the Inner Palace, Xifeng Daoren, have an unclear relationship with Huang Zhiyuan and their family, and Huang Zhiyuan and Huang Xingyuan's two brothers were cut off by me, so they secretly made me stumble. Senior brother, this time you have been affected by me, and in the future, we will still have less contact with each other on the surface, which will be better for you. ”
"What are you talking about, we're still afraid that he won't succeed. This is just a small ordeal, and although it is indeed not easy to process alchemy medicinal materials, I haven't had anywhere to learn it in the past. ”
"Okay, senior brother, then you should be careful, I can't delay any longer, and I have to go to the Punishment Hall to receive the criminal law. ”
For five consecutive days, Chen Peng was locked up in the underground black prison of the Execution Hall every day, except for more than an hour in the morning to listen to Ximeng Daogu's explanation of Xigeng Taoism in the Hall of Transmission of Gong. However, Chen Peng didn't feel too difficult, and after listening to Ximeng Daogu's explanation of Xigeng Dao Law every day, he returned to the black prison to try it out, and this quiet environment allowed Chen Peng to concentrate his mind on cultivation. Moreover, this kind of forced confinement objectively also caused Chen Peng to be unable to do anything else, but instead abandoned distracting thoughts and devoted himself to cultivation, but he became the person who had the fastest grasp of Xigeng Dao Law among the five new disciples. Originally, Ximeng Daogu thought that Chen Peng was just looking for some excuses, talking to her for a while, and didn't want to go to the black prison, but after some answers, Chen Peng was also impressed, and Chen Peng's questions were really not deliberately looking for words, but they were very to the point, and they obviously made a lot of hard work. In this way, Ximeng Daogu also taught with heart, one to teach, one to learn, and inadvertently let Chen Peng sit in the black prison for a lot of time.
Five days passed in a flash, and even when he was brought out by the disciple of the Punishment Hall, Chen Peng still had a trace of regret in his heart, and he had the urge to commit something again and stay in the black prison for a few more days. But this is just a thought, this kind of thing is too much, he doesn't want to leave a prickly impression on the elders in the sect. Besides, there are still errands waiting for him, although Chen Peng does not have much hope that he can get a first-class evaluation in the first year, but he still has to work hard to work hard, and he can't delay for too long.
"Senior Brother Chen, you're finally here. "Above the hall of the Refining Hall, Chen Peng went to pick up the errand, and it was Jin Enze who received him, but his attitude was much better than last time, "It just so happens that we have one less person to exercise the Yuan Copper Ingot and this errand will be sent to you." ”
Although Chen Peng's face remained unchanged when he heard this, it was just that he didn't want to weaken his momentum in front of his opponent, but he scolded in his heart. Although he had been prepared for a long time, Chen Peng was still very unhappy at this moment, this exercise of Yuan Steel Ingot and Yuan Copper Ingot was the most difficult errand, and it was a little more difficult to exercise Yuan Copper Ingot than to exercise Yuan Steel Inot. This time he gave himself an even more difficult of the hardest tasks, which is really too bullying. But there is no way, this is all within the scope of the authority of the Elder Xici Dao of the Refining Hall, even if it is troublesome, it makes no sense for him, this dumb loss, it is really decided.
"Senior Brother Chen, this is a good errand," Jin Enzepi said with a smile, "Master specially explained to me that I must assign the best errand to Senior Brother Chen, and I have always kept it in my heart these days." Come on, come on, Senior Brother Chen, please come in with me, I have already arranged for you, and found a fellow disciple to take you, you can rest assured, don't worry about not being able to get started. ”
As he spoke, Jin Enze pulled Chen Peng and walked inside. Chen Peng shook his arm, shook Jin Enze's hand away, and raised his leg to follow.
Looking at Chen Peng's deflated appearance, Jin Enze's heart was secretly refreshed, and he almost laughed out loud.
"Let you be arrogant, it's not in my hands today, or the master has foresight, which makes you dumb and can't say what you suffer. "Of course, he arranged a monk to teach Chen Peng, but this is also useless, and if he doesn't even teach Chen Peng, then it can't be justified at all.
Chen Peng followed Jin Enze out of the back door of the Punishment Palace, followed a path paved with bluestone slabs, walked for more than a mile, passed by five courtyards, and came to a courtyard. Pushing through the courtyard gate, I went through the gatehouse and entered, only to see that there was a square inside, and on the square were stacked pieces of silver iron and purple-red copper blocks with a diameter of half a foot and a thickness of an inch like barbell plates.
"This is the Yuan Steel and Yuan Copper refined by the cultivators of the Divine Power Realm in the door, but there are still a lot of impurities in it, and they have to go through the last training process. At this time, Jin Enze patiently explained to Chen Peng.
Next to the courtyard wall, there were stone houses built, Jin Enze took Chen Peng to a stone house in front of a stone house and slammed the door a few times, and after a while, the door opened with a "squeak", and inside was a monk with thick eyebrows and big eyes, medium stature.
"Senior Brother Jin is here. ”
"Well," Jin Enze nodded, "I brought someone here, and you can teach him to exercise the Yuan Copper Ingot." ”
"Okay, Senior Brother Jin, don't worry, I'll leave it to me. The man nodded and said, and Kim Eun-taek took it to the door after explaining.
"My name is Han Da Hammer, from today on, you will follow me to learn and exercise the Yuan Copper Ingot . Han Dazhui looked at Chen Peng and hummed.
"There's Senior Brother Lao Han. ”
Han Da Hammer lifted a hammer beside him, and Chen Peng looked carefully, the hammer head of this hammer was the size of a watermelon, boxy, and there were patterns engraved on it.
"This is a hammer specially refined by the sect to temper the Yuan copper ingot, and the formation is refined on it, when the Yuan copper block is refined, the Yuan Qi is injected into the iron hammer through the hammer handle, and the impurities in the Yuan copper block can be shaken out through continuous forging, you see. ”
As he spoke, he saw Han Dazhui walk to the corner of the wall, pick up a piece from the stack of semi-finished Yuan copper plates piled up on the side of the wall, come to the table in the center of the stone house, and put the Yuan copper plate on it. The table was all jet black, and it looked like it was made of metal. The table top is like a sieve, covered with mesh the thickness of chopsticks.
Han Da Hammer put down the semi-finished Yuan copper plate, held the hammer handle with both hands, raised it high above his head, and urged the vitality, Chen Peng saw that the pattern on the hammer head faintly emitted red light, and the hammer body also faintly emitted heat.
With the sound of "dang", the hammer head hit the yuan copper block and was bounced up again, and Han Da Hammer used the inertia of this bullet to lift the hammer above his head again, and smashed it down again.
There was a sound of "clanging", and it took a long time for Han Da Hammer to stop.
"Look at the earth. Han Dazhui put the hammer again, pulled Chen Peng to the edge of the table, pointed to the ground and said to Chen Peng.
Chen Peng looked carefully, and sure enough, he saw a very thin layer of dust on the ground, which was almost invisible to the naked eye.
"This is the impurity in the semi-finished product of this Yuan copper plate, which I kept forging with an iron hammer, and it shook out of the copper plate and leaked out of the mesh on the table. There are six kinds of impurities in this copper ingot, and it is necessary to forge it with six different hammer methods, and it is not possible to do it without one process. At my current level, it would take three days for this piece of Yuan Copper Disc to be able to remove the impurities in it. ”
Saying that, Han Da Hammer came to the side, took a long tongs, and picked up a piece of yuan copper on the ground. This piece of yuan copper is like a piece of spread bread, much thinner than the yuan copper piece on the table, just a thin piece.
"This is the Yuan copper ingot that I have forged, you come with me. Han Da Hammer came to the innermost part of the room with the Yuan copper piece, and there was a boxy stove in the corner, and above the stove was a white jade-like lampshade, and there was a faint flame shaking inside, and a white light shot out through the lampshade, illuminating the stone house transparently.
Han Da Hammer grabbed the handle on the lampshade and took it off, and the flames inside were immediately exposed to the two of them. Just look at the whole body of this flame is green, half a foot high, like the letter of a giant python flickering. Han Da Hammer used the fire tongs to hold the Yuan copper piece and leaned over the flame.
"This is the earth fire in the belly of our Xidu Peak Mountain, you see that this earth fire is burned on this yuan copper sheet, and the color has not changed at all, indicating that the purity of this yuan copper has reached the requirements. ”
After that, Han Da Hammer put the Yuan copper plate on the fire tongs on the ground, came to the table, picked up the Yuan copper plate on the table, and came to the earth fire, put the Yuan copper plate on the ground fire, and immediately saw that the flame gave birth to purple, red, yellow and other colors.
"This is the reason why there are still impurities in the Yuan copper dish, you think that after the Yuan copper disc has been forged, you can put it on the earth fire to test the purity, be sure to try every inch, if the color of the flame has remained the same, then it will be fine. ”
