Chapter 14: Genius Guidance
"Didn't you say I'm working, so I can't come in and disturb anything?" The man said unhappily when he heard the footsteps, his voice was hoarse, with a sense of heaviness, almost every foundry master would have this feeling after casting weapons for a long time, their spirits and casting steel had been fused together.
"Uncle Shi." Chen Mo saluted respectfully.
"Chen Mo, are you a person who can't practice martial arts come here to find death?" Shi Cheng's eyebrows tightened, and his tone scolded, and suddenly he saw Chen Mo smiling and groaning, and he didn't feel the slightest discomfort in his sword casting hall.
"Are you okay?!" Shi Cheng said in a deep voice, he couldn't believe it, don't look at him who has been immersed in forging all year round, and he also knows some of the deeds of Chen Mo, the biggest figure in Qinglong Town, and knows that he is an abandoned son who was abandoned by Chang'an Mansion.
"Why are you ......" Shi Cheng snorted coldly halfway through the question, it doesn't matter if you are an abandoned son or not, young master, it doesn't matter to him at all.
Chen Mo noticed that there were many abandoned weapons that failed to be built on the side.
"If you want me to help you build weapons, please ask for a while, Shi has a lot of work recently." Shi Cheng didn't look at Chen Mo either, and his tone was cold and he ordered the eviction.
"Uncle Shi, I just want to see how you build weapons, and I want to learn." Chen Mo was blunt.
"You also want to learn casting as a young master?" If it weren't for the fact that he was being refurbished by a casting weapon right now, Shi Cheng almost wanted to grin, he heard it right, a waste material who can't practice martial arts also wants to become a foundry.
Shi Cheng threw out a sentence without hesitation: "You can't become a foundry."
"How do you know if you don't try it?" Chen Mo asked rhetorically.
"Try it?" Shi Cheng's face was expressionless, and there was obviously a disdain in his eyes, did this young master think that the foundry master was playing with the family? This is a more difficult path than a martial artist.
The junior foundry master is a good temptation for people who can't cultivate qi and blood, but for the son of Chang'an Jun of the Great Heavy Dynasty, Shi Cheng thinks from the bottom of his heart that Chen Mo can't endure hardship.
"Let's ask Young Master Chen Mo to leave, there is important work to be done, if the young master is injured during the casting process, Shi can't afford it." Shi Cheng was very impatient, the weapon cast in front of him had failed several times, which made him extremely irritable, this young master still came to him to say something big, didn't he know himself.
Chen Mo's eyes sank, and he strode forward and reached out to grab it.
Shi Cheng was angry, and was about to scold, but suddenly he was shocked and speechless, only to see Chen Mo grab a piece of red steel on the furnace, completely not afraid of the high temperature burning, and hold it in his hand, this iron bar is like turning into a twist in his hand to pinch out various shapes.
"You !!" Shi Cheng opened his mouth wide.
"Uncle Shi still thinks I'm going to get hurt?" Chen Mo's eyes narrowed.
"Shi has eyes but no beads, I can't imagine that Young Master Chen Mo's cultivation is unfathomable, and no one in the huge Qinglong Town can see it." The foundry had a strong heart, Shi Cheng quickly calmed down, and looked at Chen Mo in front of him again, who had no publicity, without his previous disdain, but was a little surprised and incomprehensible.
"It's just that the sword-forging process is nothing to look at, and delaying Young Master Chen Mo's cultivation is a dereliction of duty on the part of Shi." Shi Cheng added lukewarmly.
Chen Mo knew that the status of the foundry master was superior, and even the junior foundry master might not be interested in the martial artists of the nine turns of qi and blood.
"Uncle Shi doesn't know what troubles are going on in the casting process, maybe I can help you." Chen Mo was about to try his experience in casting scriptures, so he asked.
Can you help me?" Shi Cheng sneered, this kid is too arrogant, he thinks that the work of a foundry, can a martial artist interfere? The disciples of the powerful and wealthy families always have this kind of self-righteous problem in their bones.
"I'm afraid the young master can't help me."
"I've been researching foundries lately, so I wanted to give it a try."
"Oh, since Young Master Chen Mo insists on doing so, then it's okay, but if Young Master Chen Mo feels embarrassed, please leave the Foundry Hall, so as not to disturb Shi's work." Shi Cheng was already impatient and wanted to kick Chen Mo out.
"Okay." Chen Mo happily agreed.
"Shi has been forging a 'big knife' recently, but he always fails in forging, does Young Master Chen Mo know the reason?" Shi Cheng gestured to the weapon in front of him.
"That's it?" Chen Mo looked at the pile of scrapped weapons in the corner, there were more than a dozen of them, he stepped forward to look at the one on the Shicheng forging platform, which had gradually taken shape under the high temperature, but stopped when it was finally finalized.
"This is the bluescale?" Chen Mo touched the weapon, although the weapon was not formed, there were faint fine lines of fish scales, which were distributed very regularly, and when you touched it carefully, there would be a cool feeling on the fingertips.
It has been recorded in the chapter on casting ore, the bluescale stone is thick, and the fish scales are very delicate, and the casters like to use it to forge their own craft.
Glancing at the scrapped weapons in the corner, all of which were made of blue-scale iron and stone, Chen Mo quickly understood where Shi Cheng's thorny problem was.
"Uncle Shi, did you fail because the weapon you cast can't keep the scales?" Chen Mo smiled slightly.
Shi Cheng's eyes sank, and he suppressed his surprise, this young master has such great eyesight, and he didn't hide it: "That's right, if the weapon made of blue scale stone is forged again, it can still keep the fish scales intact and delicate, and it will not destroy the fish scale pattern, which means that the caster's craftsmanship has reached the primary peak."
After a pause, Shi Cheng showed a hint of sarcasm: "Young Master Chen Mo, do you think you can still help Shi solve the problem?" This kind of thing depends on the caster's own experience and casting skills, which can only be known by the experience accumulated over the years. [,!] Dao knows what method to use when creating a bluescale stone, and when to pay attention to the appropriate force so as not to destroy the integrity of the fish scales.
Only those who have accumulated at least an intermediate level of experience are qualified to teach by example.
It is impossible for a martial artist to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf in this regard, even if you survive the big and small thunder tribulations, which is why Shi Cheng is a little unhappy with Chen Mo.
He, why should he teach himself?!
Amusing.
After thinking about it, Chen Mo said slowly: "I am indeed a layman with experience, but I know a technique of casting bluescale stone, and I may be able to help Uncle Shi."
"What trick?" Shi Cheng asked.
"Take a pool of water and pour running water into it...... If it is a forging broadsword, the handle, blade, and knife surface exert different forces, once from the handle to the sharp blade from the depth to the shallow, from the blade to the back ......of the knife from thin to thick.
"Really?" Shi Cheng listened to what Chen Mo said, and he couldn't refute it for a while.
"Just try it and you'll find out." Chen Mo smiled.
"Okay, Shi Mou is going to see if Young Master Chen is a real person today, if he can really make Shi break through to the casting of the primary peak, what will Young Master Chen Mo tell in the future." Get a skill, you will be a teacher, the field of casters is tempered, often some points can benefit the casters endlessly, save years of time, and it is not an exaggeration to call the teacher.
Soon, Shi Cheng prepared a pool of flowing water and sand, began to forge the broadsword in the furnace, and then picked up a hundred-pound iron hammer, and as soon as the hammer dipped in the pool water, it struck towards the weapon.
Bang.
Sparks fly like stars.
The water dances, and the clouds rise.
The crisp sound of forging metal with the sound of flowing water.
Hit it three times in a row, and then dip it into the pool with a hammer.
After several consecutive reflections, Shi Cheng's steel-like eyes gradually became more and more astonished, and the large knife slowly took shape under the hammer, and the fine lines of fish scales on the knife were not smoothed out with the fierce blow, but were distributed regularly like ripples.
Seeing that the situation was different from before, Shi Cheng was excited like a child.
Chen Mo had to say something to remind him to master his strength, which made this middle-aged man very embarrassed.
Seeing that what the casting scripture said was right, Chen Mo put his mind at ease, sat on the side and watched the process of casting the sword by the foundry, and wrote down every detail of his forging in his mind.
About a few hours.
Sonorous.
The sleek metal has finally come to an end.
Shi Cheng put the built weapon into the pool water to cool, the big knife has been formed, the blade is sharp, and the fish scales on the blade are clustered, so that the big knife is like a fish coming to life.
No matter in terms of sharpness, toughness, sharpness, lightness, heaviness, and smoothness, this knife has reached level 4, which is the highest level among the weapons currently cast by Shi Cheng.
Here we have to talk about the level requirements of weapons.
Astral weapons in addition to the star generals to create the casters have a level, from the lowest level nine to the first level, each level can rely on forging infusion can be upgraded.For example, the junior caster can build up to level 4 weapons, with some materials to upgrade, in the foundry 'term' is called 'starcast' is also called casting, every time the 'starcast' is successful, the weapon level will be upgraded by one level, and the weapon can be improved from all aspects.
After reaching level 10, the weapon is a level, and then you can absorb the power of the stars in the astral realm, and then a star will be added to the weapon, also called 'one star', and the weapon that reaches the 'star' level can be called Xingwu.
After the star, it is repeated from the first level to the ninth level, the star of the star is unlimited, the more stars of a weapon, the more powerful it is.
If you reach 10 stars, you will be able to compete with the earth stars.
Xingwu is weak enough to blow hair and break hair, and strong enough to split mountains and open the sea; However, it is very difficult to cast a star, every ten levels can be promoted to a star, and the higher the number of stars, the materials required are already astronomical, peerless and rare, and the requirements for casters are more demanding.
Not only can they cast stars by themselves, but the upgrade process will not be as troublesome as ordinary star martial arts, they derive with the power of the stars, and they will directly rise to a star every time they rise, which greatly reduces the cumbersome process, and ordinary martial artists are different from cloud and mud.
Shi Cheng can build at least level 4 weapons, at least he already has the skills of the peak of a junior casting master, which is rare in the Dazhong Dynasty.
This pinnacle threshold has been stuck in Shi Cheng for several years, and I don't know how much effort it takes, but now that he has finally made a breakthrough, how can he not be excited.
And this qiē was only slightly pointed out.
It looks like it's just pointing at random, but it's like piercing the window paper, and it suddenly opens up.
"Shi Cheng will do his best to repay Young Master Chen Mo in the future." Shi Cheng hugged his fists. [,!] looked solemn and respectful, how could he still have the boredom when Chen Mo first entered the house before.
