Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Master
Yesterday, the patriarch had already sent someone to inform the master, and it would just be enough to pass on time.
The patriarch was also going to see the master, so they set off together.
The Master dwells in a smaller, more secluded valley in the canyon, some distance from where everyone lives. But there is the best spring found by the master to make weapons, and almost all of Master Carter's works are born here.
Although they are all in the canyon, there are some differences between the hills and the woods and rivers.
Several people were very fast, so everyone quickly saw where the master lived. Except for a spring that was still clear, everything around it seemed to be covered with a layer of black ash, all caused by the black smoke coming from the master's fire.
There was a large open space in front of it, and there was a big room, Snow explained: "Boss, Master Carter has a rule, each master's guest can choose a weapon in that room, and fight a master-fed monster here, if the weapon you choose is very compatible with the attack method, the master will let the monster let you in." Otherwise, the master will not see you. ”
Wang Feng smiled and asked, "Then what if I kill the demonic beast?"
The dwarven patriarch took over and said, "Carter once traded a superb sword for a mysterious man's magical beast, called 'Trial', which has guarded him here since I was a child, and no one has been able to seriously injure it until now. There have been a few people in the past, who chose good weapons and had profound skills, and they only cut some of the test skins, and they were all treated by the master and VIPs. If you can hurt the test gold, it will be the first one in the past ten years, Snow was almost eaten by the test gold when he went in, hehe. Even if you take action, I'll take care of what happens. ”
Obviously, the patriarch also had a strong interest in Wang Feng's skills.
Wang Feng smiled slightly and walked towards the big house. Linda next to her was anxious to say something, Wang Feng seemed to feel it, turned his head and said, "It's okay, it's really not good, you can still run." Linda thought about it too, put her mind at ease, and stopped talking.
Seeing Wang Feng walk into the big house, the patriarch led the others to the outside of a fence, found a high place to sit down, and said, "Let's look here, it's close, it's clear." Snow sat down with him.
When Wang Feng entered the big house, he was immediately startled by the scene in the house.
The big house was already big from the outside, but when you came in, it seemed to be even bigger than the outside. After surviving in the world of magic for so long, Wang Feng already knew some common sense of magic, this room was treated with space magic, and the volume inside was far greater than the volume he saw.
The outside is not very surprising, but the surprise is that in this room, there are dozens of large compartments, each of which is filled with piles of weapons. Judging from the number alone, there are far more than 10 million, and similar compartments can be vaguely seen in the distance where there is no end in sight.
I know that the master's rule is a bit of a test, but it is not easy to choose the one that can satisfy the master from so many weapons.
Outside, Snow had gone in when he was younger and knew the situation inside, so he took the initiative to find a seat for Linda and Ruohan and let them sit down, and then told them that it took three days to come out when he went in.
Knowing that it would take a long time, the two of them were not in a hurry, and waited quietly, while listening to Snow talk about how long it took someone to pass and not pass.
Wang Feng saw the compartment full of knives at a glance, and after a quick glance, the varieties in it were really complete, there were all kinds of knives that he had never seen before, and some even had gorgeous sheaths. The workmanship is exquisite, but from the outside, there is no difference in it.
After a little thought, I made up my mind. He smiled to himself, took a knife in his hand, and walked out, which looked similar to the knife he had used before.
Snow was foaming at the mouth to tell Linda and Ruohan a story, when he suddenly saw that Wang Feng had come out, and was surprised. Although this boss often brings you some incredible, but this time on his own land, can there be a miracle?
It just so happened that the patriarch's father's eyes also looked over, full of questions, and Snow also gave the same gaze. The eyes of the two people met in the air, and they both fell on the knife that Wang Feng had chosen.
The distance is closer, and the view is clearer.
Snow and his father both shook their heads, making Linda and Ruohan, two people who didn't understand what was going on, even more confused, Ruohan was anxious and asked, "Snow, what's wrong, what do you mean by shaking your head?"
Snow paused for a while before replying, "The purpose of Master Carter's rule is to test the vision of the guests who come to meet him, his martial arts, and the cooperation of his own kung fu and weapons, and the selection of weapons is one of them. It is necessary to select the weapons of excellent quality and quality from the thousands of weapons in the room, so that it is possible to perform well in the next competition with the gold test and get the recognition of the master, otherwise, you will not even be able to see the face of the master. ”
Linda was in a hurry and hurriedly asked, "The king... Is there a problem with the old election's knife? You're all shaking your heads. ”
Snow said regretfully: "The problem is the knife of the old election." That knife is not the best knife inside, and it is placed on the outermost, if I don't guess wrong, the boss seems to have entered the door and casually took a knife and came out, so it was difficult to pass. ”
Ruohan said loudly: "The boss won't make the wrong choice, with the boss's vision, the knife given to Chuck at that time was made by him himself, and the boss will not know the quality of the knife, it must be your vision is wrong." ”
The dwarven patriarch took over and said, "Snow is not wrong, Wang Feng chose an ordinary knife. Ruohan was still arguing, but Linda stopped him and didn't speak.
Snow snorted and said, "But the boss still broke the record and came out early, the fastest one took more than a day before, and he is another casting master in our clan, the boss is much faster than him now, less than a quarter of an hour, haha." ”
The dwarven patriarch said suddenly: "Shh, don't speak, watch your boss's attack carefully." Everyone hurriedly focused their attention on Wang Feng.
Wang Feng hadn't killed anything since he killed the dragon bat in the belly of Cang Ming last time, and as soon as he held the handle of the knife in his hand this time, he immediately felt a familiar feeling welling up in his heart.
When I was in the wolf army, I was used to killing the enemy with a knife, and every time I held the handle of the knife, there was a murderous aura that naturally flowed out, and even the other people in the wolf army couldn't stand it anymore. Later, this style of saber was never touched again. When he wandered alone, he took a machete, and he tried his best to control himself, and he never showed murderous aura.
The current knife is obviously a style in the army, no matter the handle, knife head, swallow, and handguard, it is similar to what Wang Feng used before, and it is familiar with kindness.
As soon as the hand touched the hilt, some frantic thoughts poured out, and I unconsciously wanted blood.
The knife in his hand also seemed to be infected with the demon surname, trembling slightly. It wasn't until Wang Feng tried his best to control it that he calmed down.
Wang Feng understood that it was not what the knife in his hand was, but that as soon as he came into contact with the knife, he would arouse the hope of killing that he had been buried deep in his heart, and he had killing intent in his heart, which was triggered by the knife in his hand.
A crazy idea suddenly popped up in his mind, according to Ruohan's crazy method, Wang Feng's own breath was carefully divided, and the back of his head was slightly stimulated, and suddenly, the killing intent seemed to be infinitely magnified, and he just wanted to see the blood light.
Fortunately, there is not much true qi that is divided, and I can still keep my own thoughts. There should be a magical beast called the gold test outside that can be used to calm his killing intent, Wang Feng raised his knife and walked to the empty field outside.
You can see a path on the opposite side. I guess if I can get there under the attack of the monster, I should be able to pass it. So without hesitation, move forward.
I can feel that something is peeking at me, but I can't see the image.
I didn't care so much about it, and walked forward. The killing intent in his heart became more and more obvious. Snow and the others, who were far behind, could also feel Wang Feng's earth-shattering murderous aura.
The scalp was numb for a while, and the patriarch couldn't help but murmur: "Who is he?" Linda was also startled by Wang Feng's murderous aura, and kept praying in her heart: "Almighty God, don't let anything happen to him." ”
With every step, Wang Feng's killing intent strengthened by one point, and it was estimated that no matter what appeared in front of him, he would be attacked by Wang Feng's madness. At this time, he was a little crazy like a berserker, blocking my way, killing Buddha when he met Buddha, and killing demons when he met demons. However, Wang Feng didn't even be like Ruohan, who couldn't even tell friend from foe, but now he suddenly enjoyed this feeling, and even hoped that some powerful demonic beast would appear in front of him to vent it.
I don't know what the reason, Wang Feng walked all the way to the end of the path, and nothing appeared, so he walked to the end smoothly.
The killing intent could not be vented, Wang Feng couldn't help but howl to the sky, the howl was high, like a dragon's groan, and it lasted for a long time.
After the long roar, Wang Feng swung his knife into the air, and a stream of knife qi came out, sneering, where the knife qi passed, stones, wooden blocks, soil, and things that touched were all divided into two halves by this knife, and a long trace was left on the ground.
The knife in his hand could no longer withstand Wang Feng's skill, and with a "click", it shattered into several sections. The clicking sound seemed to recall Wang Feng's self-consciousness, looking at the broken knife on the ground, Wang Feng sighed to himself, threw away the handle without a knife body, and looked ahead.
I secretly pondered in my heart, my killing intent and the madness I learned from Ruo Han made my skill suddenly more than double, but fortunately I could still distinguish between friend and foe, it seems that such things can't be done often, and at the same time warn myself that before I can't control my killing intent, I will never use this trick again.
An old voice came. "Honorable guest, please come in, I have never seen anyone before, just by murderous energy, the trial gold can be frightened and dare not make a move. ”
Wang Feng followed the sound forward, turned a mountain pass, and saw a flat land, next to a huge refining furnace, and in the corner was a dwarven-style thatched hut. The dwarven patriarch and Snorohan and the others in the distance also seemed to have been notified and began to walk this way.
Wait until everyone is together, and then enter the hut together.
The dwarf's things are very exquisite, but the size of the house is a little small, Wang Feng Linda is fine, Ruohan can only squat.
Entering the hut, Wang Feng finally saw the owner of the voice, an old dwarf with a beard longer than Snow's father combined. The dwarf had too much hair to see the wrinkles on his face, but just by listening to the voice, he knew that he was very old.
Looking at the dwarven patriarch and Snow's respectful appearance, everyone knows that this old dwarf is Carter, the master of weapon casting among the dwarves.
The master politely sat everyone down, then sighed and said, "No one has ever come to my hut from the mouth of the valley in two days, but this little brother is the first, and even I have to admire it. ”
Wang Feng was still very polite to the elders, and said busily: "Don't dare, you stumbled into it by mistake, and you don't dare to be a master." ”
The master then asked, "What do you call the little brother?" Wang Feng hurriedly signed up.
Although everyone had a question in their hearts, the master did not speak, and the others did not dare to speak.
The master then asked an irrelevant question: "Wang Feng, listening to your name, it seems that you are not from several surrounding countries?"
Wang Feng nodded and said, "As the master expected, I am just a wandering prodigal son, who is at peace with what happens, and I can't talk about where I am from." ”
The master nodded, and finally asked a question that everyone wanted to ask: "Why did you only choose that ordinary knife in that arsenal, but there is nothing eye-catching there?" Everyone pricked up their ears when they heard the topic of interest.
Wang Feng said: "The master is too modest, that arsenal is so huge, how can there be nothing that catches the eye." There were a few good knives near the door. One is the rusty big knife, although it is old and neglected, but it can be seen from the rust that it is a very good knife, although there are some bright knives around, but it can't hide the mighty aura emitted from the knife. But that knife was too big for me. So there was no choice. ”
The master nodded slightly. The patriarch also showed a look of surprise.
"There is another one, diagonally placed in a pile of sheathed knives, the other knives are gorgeous, only that one has no decoration, and the scabbard is also very common, but I found that the scabbard of that knife is actually used in a clamping way instead of the general way of insertion, there is only one reason for this practice, that is, because the knife is too sharp, so the scabbard can not bear it, it can be seen that it is also a good knife. However, the shape of the knife is different from mine, so I didn't choose it. ”
This time, even Snow couldn't figure it out, he obviously saw something good, why not use it.
"I didn't look at the other weapons, I only looked at the sword, and I didn't look at it much. But for me at the moment, it doesn't make a big difference whether I use weapons or not, so I'll just pick one. Wang Feng answered this question very honestly.
The master thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Have you not opened a killing ring for a long time?"
In a word, Wang Feng's cold sweat flowed down, and the master in front of him was not simple. Honestly, Wang Feng replied: "Yes, it has been a long time. "The image of this master in my mind is getting more and more profound.
The master nodded and said, "That's right, I didn't even dare to make a move when the test gold faced you, it can be seen that your killing intent has begun to be a little uncontrollable." ”
The master in Wang Feng's heart has changed from a master of forging weapons at the beginning to a master who cultivates both inside and outside, and is perfect. He was able to discover the connotations of his simple performances that others could not see.
"When you can't control your killing intent, the next thing is that you can't control your behavior, as long as you touch your familiar weapon, you can't help but want to use it, when the killing intent is getting stronger and stronger, you just need to pick up a weapon, you want to kill, this has become your habit, long-term suppression is not channeled, it is easy to make a big mess. ”
In fact, what the master said, Wang Feng had already felt it himself, but he didn't know what was going on. I do have a strong urge to kill sometimes, but it is really hard to hide this killing intent with extraordinary will. Therefore, as soon as he touched the weapon, he unconsciously released his suppressed impulses, and coupled with the crazy experiment, even the demonic beasts did not dare to move.
The master continued, "If you continue to suppress it like this, you will soon become a bloodthirsty madman. ”
Speaking of which, Wang Feng was not very good, Linda couldn't sit still, and hurriedly asked, "Then, what should I do?"
When Wang Feng heard the back, his heart was wide. It seems that the things I learned from the berserkers really can't be used much, and if you're not careful, you'll become a bloodthirsty maniac, which is not yet eliminated by those righteous people in the name of demon eradication. This move is really powerful, and even people like the master can feel the danger.
But the master was also kind and reminded himself of the crisis he might encounter, so Wang Feng was also very grateful. I still admire the master's ability to see through his suppressed killing intent for many years at a glance.
The master saw that Wang Feng's face did not change greatly because of his words, and he also nodded secretly in his heart, this young man talked about his life and death issues, and his face did not change, which is really rare.
gave Wang Feng a conclusion with certainty: "At present, you should not use any weapons." When you can't control your killing intent, don't touch any weapons, otherwise it will only make your murderous aura more and more intense, and in the long run, it will be very dangerous. ”
Everyone's eyes looked at Wang Feng, Wang Feng smiled slightly, and said, "I have no problem, and, at present, the weapon I need has not been made." ”
Everyone was puzzled, and Wang Feng's tone of voice made several people in the dwarf clan a little unconvinced. The best craftsmen in the entire continent are here, and the best weapons in the whole continent are here, is there anything not to be satisfied with? Could it be that the weapon Wang Feng wants is an artifact?
Wang Feng untied the burden on his left arm in everyone's different eyes, the burden was tightly wrapped by Wang Feng with animal skin, everyone knew this package, but they didn't know the contents of the package.
Looking at Wang Feng's cautious appearance, those who are familiar with Wang Feng know the importance of the contents of the package. I have never seen Wang Feng treat anything like this, not even the artifact "Hurricane" bow, which can be discarded or given away at will, but it is the first time I have seen this package so seriously.
The package was finally unwrapped, and in the eyes of Linda and Ruohan, Wang Feng was just taking out an ordinary and inconspicuous piece of iron. But in the eyes of the dwarves, Wang Feng was no less than taking out a treasure that could be compared to all the wealth in the world.
The master actually walked out of the darkness, took the polar cold iron from Wang Feng's hand, and looked at it carefully. The dwarven patriarch and Snow also gathered around, and without saying a word, the three of them looked directly at the metal block in the master's hand with six eyes.
Linda and Ruohan still don't understand what is so great about such a black thing that Wang Feng has come up with, that even the dwarven casting master can be excited like this?
The master suddenly shouted, "Snow, help me set up the fire, Patriarch, you go and prepare the tools, let's try to see if we can forge it." ”
The two people, a patriarch and an heir of the patriarch, did not mind the master's commanding tone at all, and quickly started to move, and after a while, they prepared all the tools that should be prepared, and even the fire was burned.
Snow pulled the bellows hard, and the flames in the stove went straight up, making a whirring sound. The master twisted a few black pieces into the fire, and the fire became even stronger.
It wasn't until the flames gradually turned white that the master began to move, and Ruohan had already helped Snow pull the bellows with great interest, but his huge body could only squat on the ground. Fortunately, there was no prohibition after Snow returned, and this bit of physical work was not a problem.
Wang Feng's polar cold iron was clamped and sent to the flame, and as time slowly passed, the iron clamp had slowly turned red, while the polar cold iron still looked black, without the slightest change.
The master looked at it coldly, and picked a few golden things from the pile next to him and threw them into the fire, and the flames immediately turned into a strange golden yellow, and the heat wave dispersed, and the surrounding temperature immediately became extremely hot.
Cold Iron still hasn't changed anything.
The master changed a few more things, and in the end, even the iron clamp melted, but the cold iron still had no reaction, and the master stopped in despair. Snow and Ruohan pulled the bellows for a while, as if they were more tired than fighting fiercely with the enemy, and they were snorting and panting.
The master didn't speak for a while, and Wang Feng also looked at him blankly. Although he came here full of hope, the scene in front of him was the same as if he had been in his own world before, helpless against the cold iron of the polar regions.
However, there have been many disappointments, and Wang Feng has seen it, anyway, he doesn't have to need this thing, he really can't, it's a big deal if he doesn't do it, it's no different from before.
The master stood silently for a long time, and the patriarch and Snow did not speak, after all, they were also people who knew the goods. The polar cold iron that Wang Feng took out was hard in texture, and the purity of concentration was not comparable to that of ordinary metals. It's just that there is no way to smelt such a treasure, and both of them are very sorry. But looking at the master's appearance, it seems that there is some other way, so I don't bother, and wait quietly.
Finally, the master spoke: "This piece of metal is the best material I have ever seen, but it can't be smelted and made by ordinary methods, but it's not impossible, if you have the chance, you can try it." ”
Seeing that there was something to be done, Wang Feng's heart perked, and he hurriedly asked, "What method?"
"There are two ways to try. The first is to find a fire magic forbidden spell mage and ask him to use the legendary forbidden spell 'Burn Heaven and Earth' to try to melt this piece of metal. If not, there's only one legendary way to do it. ”
Wang Feng asked eagerly, "What method?"
The master said slowly: "If you can touch the legendary phoenix and soak this piece of metal with its blood, you can smelt it, but the phoenix is already hard to find, and it is even more difficult to get its blood, and you don't have to report so much hope." After a pause, he continued: "I now know why you chose that ordinary knife, there is such a weapon as a hope, and no other weapon can be seen." He sighed deeply and looked into the distance and never spoke again.
