Chapter 20: The Ink Evil

Long Li held the iron bar aloft as if to welcome the gift of God.

"What a beautiful color, I'm so talented."

"This rough surface is also beautiful?"

"It's rugged beauty, you don't understand!"

"There's only one last step left, but before that, we have to sort it out."

After polishing the rough iron bars brightly, Long Li's eyes narrowed with laughter, and now he was almost trembling for the last time.

"Second egg, burn it red."

"Slow, slow! It's not for you to burn it into molten iron, just burn it red. ”

The second egg converged the fire, and Long Li picked up the red steel bar and soaked it in oil, cooling it for a while before taking it out and cleaning it.

After the strip cooled down, Long Li knocked it, and the sound was perfect!

Then Long Li was tested for a while, and finally came to the conclusion that it was qualified, but this quality was a little better than that of Bailian Steel, and it was still far from his requirements.

In desperation, Long Li had no choice but to continue to improve the process.

After tossing for two days, Erdan had already seen that the steel bar was about to vomit, but Long Li was happy to do it.

"It's finally done!"

Feeling the elasticity of the steel bar, Long Li was very satisfied, "With this thing, the power of the new crossbow arrow will definitely increase to a higher level." ”

"Can this be a crossbow? No kidding. ”

"Old Jin, just wait and see."

A day later, the steel bars were matched with a bowstring made of mangiving, and a qualified pulley crossbow was finally completed.

Putting the bow and crossbow aside for the time being, Long Li began to forge the long knife.

This time he plans to make a Tang knife.

The Tang Dao has a very good armor-piercing effect, which is just enough to restrain the steel-like skin of the demon beast, coupled with the good piercing ability, Long Li already has to do it in his heart.

According to the steel-clad method, Longli began to be made step by step.

After another day of hard work, Long Li finally made a Tang knife.

The long knife is about an inch thick, two and a half feet long, the blade is straight, the back is thick and the blade is narrow, and it is a sharp weapon for cutting at a glance.

Looking at the hair-blowing Tang Dao, Lao Jin was speechless in surprise.

"You can make a knife like that?"

Long Li looked as a matter of course, "I am not afraid to learn mathematics, physics and chemistry all over the world, my method seems simple but all-encompassing, containing the truth of all things, you will not understand." ”

Lao Jin said disdainfully: "No matter how good it is, it's just a second-order, do you really think you can create an artifact?" ”

"It's only the second order?!"

"Or else?"

Long Li was devastated that he was self-righteous.

"If you want to learn refining, you can't do it behind closed doors, you'd better find someone to learn it seriously, you have a lot of talent."

Long Li's mood immediately improved when he heard this, "That's it, Ben Shao is a genius." ”

"Lao Jin, look at Ben Shao to make a magic for you!"

Long Li picked up the long knife and started blackening.

Half an hour later, Long Li looked at the dark blade and was very satisfied.

"Old Jin, how is this knife?"

"What's different besides the color?"

"Rust prevention, is that enough?"

Lao Jin said disdainfully: "Artifacts are not afraid of rust." ”

"But have you ever seen anything that is not afraid of rust?"

At this moment, Lao Jin was stunned, it seems that Fanpin does not have this function, so he can't.

Long Li looked at his work with satisfaction, "You are the first knife I forged, I have to give you a name......

"Dogs?"

"Iron eggs?"

“……”

Lao Jin was completely speechless.

After struggling for a long time, Long Li's aura flashed, "It's called the ink evil, and it can be regarded as a dip in the master's divine light." ”

"Ink Evil?"

"Good name!"

Long Li laughed, which praised him for liking.

After making a simple blackened scabbard, Long Li left the forge room.

Long Li came to the front desk with a bag of iron on his back and asked, "Do you accept a hundred wrought iron ingots?" ”

The administrator glanced at Long Li, "One hundred forged iron ingots, 1 gold coin each, we will collect as much as we want." ”

Long Li was stunned when he heard this price, Qi Wuge sold 10 gold coins, and it was 9 times the profit when he changed hands, but he didn't expect it to be so pitiful.

Seeing Long Li's hesitation, the waiter said impatiently: "Sell it or not, don't sell it and don't affect our business." ”

Long Li coldly counterattacked, "Dogs look down on people. ”

The waiter looked down at Long Li and looked proud, "Not even an apprentice is a waste, where does he have the confidence to install X in the Refining Association, believe it or not, I will never be able to buy a weapon?" ”

Long Li pretended to be surprised, "I'm so scared, if you have the ability, you can try?" ”

Half an hour later, Long Li was put out of the Refining Association by two big men, and he was very arrogant.

"We don't lack you these iron ingots, and your Excellency will not be welcomed by the Nankui Refining Guild in the future, please don't make a mistake about yourself."

Taba!

The dragon parcel was thrown on the ground, and the iron ingots were scattered all over the ground.

Looking at the iron ingots on the ground, the eyes of the two big men were straight.

"This, this is a thousand wrought iron ingots."

Long Li himself was surprised, he was so high-level, wouldn't this be able to sell for a good price?

The two big men glanced at each other, and then nodded to each other, since the person has already offended, it is best to take him away while no one is paying attention.

"Hurry up, hurry up, the Refining Association is not the place for you."

"Don't blame us for being ruthless!"

Long Li picked up the iron ingot, turned around and left, not because he couldn't be provoked, but because he was in a hurry to make money.

Leaving the Refining Association, Long Li smiled, "The Refining Association is amazing, a group of waste ...... with no one in their eyes"

Before he finished speaking, an old man blocked Long Li's way.

"Xiaoyou, what is wrong with your outrageous words about our association?"

Long Li looked up, and the person who came was an old man in a robe, and looked at the badge of the Refining Association on his chest, and Long Li immediately knew the identity of the person who came.

"Old man, seeing that you are also a figure in the Refining Association, did you say that the person who went to your Refining Guild to sell things was not a customer?"

"Yes!"

"How should you treat your customers?"

"Treat them with courtesy."

"Is it polite to kick people out?"

Lao Suo finished his words and argued: "Maybe Xiaoyou is deliberately making trouble? ”

Long Li took out an iron ingot and threw it over, "Is it a mess to sell this thing?" ”

Lao Suo wiped the iron ingot, and his face was full of surprise.

The residual temperature of this iron ingot still exists, and it seems that it has not been long since it was refined, and the quality is between thousands of forgings and ten thousand forgings, which is a rare high-quality iron ingot.

"Good craftsmanship!"

What made the old man even more concerned was that there was no trace of forging at all in this iron ingot, and it was more like it was cast.

"This is made by Xiaoyou?"

Long Li was stunned at first, but he was amazed in his heart, this old man is very powerful.

Long Li bowed slightly, "The old man has a good eye, this iron ingot is indeed forged by this genius." ”

"Can you show me another one?"

Long Li threw one again, and Lao Su weighed it and praised it without hesitation: "Good craftsmanship, you are worthy of the title of genius." ”

"Old man, how much do you think this iron ingot is worth?"

"The market price is 50 gold coins a piece, and you can sell 80 gold coins of this quality."

Hearing this, Lao Jin's eyes fell to the ground, "I'm afraid this old man didn't wake up, so it's worth 80 gold coins if he burns the second egg casually?" ”

"Don't make a fuss, it's a lot of effort."

The second egg has a cute little head, but it is very serious about ironmaking.

Seeing Long Li's reaction, the old man understood in seconds.

"Come, follow me to the association, and I will give you justice."

Long Li was unmoved, "It's a small thing to get angry, it's not good for you to put yourself in." ”

"Don't worry, no one in the Home Association has touched me yet."

Looking at the old man's domineering back, Long Li followed along.

All the way to the door of the Refining Association, Long Li was stopped by two big men again.

Long Li stretched his neck and asked the old man for help, "Hey, old man, can you solve these two obstacles?" ”

Lao Suo turned his head and glanced coldly, "Get out of the way, whose order is this?" ”

Seeing the person coming clearly, the two big men became trembling, "Yes-Director Cao." ”

The old man said expressionlessly: "You go to the logistics to move the iron ore for a year, and you are not allowed to come back if you can't finish moving." ”

"Thank you, Lord Kaig!"

Seeing the appearance of the two big men, Long Li quickly caught up with the old man, "I didn't expect you to be an official, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

The old man laughed, "I don't know now that it's too late." ”

All the way to the front desk, I found that there was a different person in front of the counter, and the old man immediately instructed the person to look for it after asking about it.

The old man once again refreshed Long Li's cognition, and estimated that he was still a big official. Long Li was about to step forward to pull the relationship, but a shrill voice stopped him.

"Little bunny, do you dare to come? Where's the doorman, throw this little brute out of here! ”

Not to be outdone, Long Li turned his head and said, "Who is the little beast scolding?" ”

"The little brute scolds you!"

"You...... You're looking for death! ”

The young man finally felt that something was wrong, his face turned red and he started directly, but Long Li was a companion with his feet in a flash, and the man flew directly out of control to the corner.

The young man struggled to show his face, and pointed at Long Li is scolding, "Little brute, dare to fight back, see if I don't kill you!" ”

"Who are you going to kill?"

The young man turned his head and looked at it, and he was momentarily stunned!

After reacting, he pointed at Long Li and said, "President, this kid stole the iron ingots I refined and didn't admit it, I wanted to kick him out for the sake of the reputation of the association, but I didn't expect him to dare to come back."

President, such a person must not be allowed to appear in the association! ”

"Yes, get out!"

"Liar!"

The crowd was furious, and Long Li suddenly fell into an embarrassment.

The young man was very proud, but the face of an old man was not so good-looking.

"You refined? What level are you? ”

The young man said proudly: "President, the little one just reached the first level last month. ”

Lao Suo looked serious, "It's a waste, and it really should be kicked out of the association." ”

The young man's face was overjoyed, and he pointed at Long Li and shouted, "Doorman, why don't you hurry up and throw this waste out?" ”

The doorman remained motionless and looked at the old man.

The old man waved his hand, and several big men immediately carried the young man out.

The young man panicked, "Got the wrong person, it's him who should go, not me!" ”

Long Li smiled and waved goodbye, "Hello, bye-bye!" ”

The young man shouted in horror, "Why, I'm a first-order refiner, why did you kick me out of the association?" It's not fair, you will shield outsiders! ”

"Wait!"

The old man called out to the doorman, "Bring him back!" Since you say I'm unfair, then I'll let you die to understand. ”

Long Li looked at the young man with a shocked face, he really asked for his own death, this IQ will not be wasted by iron.

Lao Su looked at Long Li, "Little friend, I'll lend you an iron ingot." ”

"Here, remember to pay me back."

The old man stumbled under his feet and glared at Long Li fiercely, who can do without you in broad daylight?

The old man held up the ingot, "Is this one?" ”

"Yes, that's it!"

When the young man saw that the iron ingot was taken out by Long Li, he immediately insisted that it was his.

The old man looked sorry, "You tell me about the characteristics of this iron ingot first, and then I will leave it to others to judge, lest you say that I am unfair." ”

The young man's face was happy, he had seen a lot of iron ingots, and the style and weight had long been familiar with his chest.

"This is a hundred wrought iron ingots, which have been tempered by hundreds of hammers, and one piece weighs about 5 catties."

The old man didn't answer, he threw the iron ingot to another refiner, "You can judge this iron ingot." ”

The middle-aged refiner weighed it, groped his fingers back and forth twice, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"This iron ingot was forged by Xiaoyou?"

Long Li smiled and nodded in response, while the middle-aged man looked horrified.

The middle-aged man motioned to everyone, "This iron ingot is made of thousands of forgings, the quality is close to ten thousand forgings, and the casting method is used, weighing 5 catties and 8 taels."

The truth!

The young man's eyes widened in disbelief, and then he immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "The president will spare me, I have been blinded by lard for a moment to do such a thing, and I will never dare again." ”

"This little brother, I kowtowed to you, please help me intercede."

The crowd was in an uproar, looking at the young man with disdain on his face.

Long Li shook his head regretfully, "You can't live if you do your own evil. ”

The old man was ashamed, "Throw it out, this kind of unscrupulous thing will not be allowed to enter my Nankui Refining Association in the future." ”

"Here you go, don't say I don't have your ingot.

Follow me! ”

Long Li smiled and put away the iron ingot, and left with the old man.
