Chapter 489: Devouring, Strength Regression (Part II)

"You're back?"

Lu Qi jumped in front of Gu Chen in two steps, and when he suddenly saw Gu Chen's somewhat pale face, his chest couldn't help but tighten suddenly, and he held the big slender hands in his hands, and said anxiously: "Are you injured?"

"Hehe, nothing, just a few minor issues. Gu Chen smiled and pulled his hand out of the slender jade hand without a trace.

He didn't expect this little girl's eyesight to be so good, and he could see that something was wrong with him at a glance: "Don't worry, by the way, are all the things that I asked you to send someone to do before I leave?"

Lu Qi pursed her lips a little displeased, as smart as how she didn't know that he was unwilling to sue herself, but when it came to business, she also swept away the displeasure on her face, quickly put on a stern look, and nodded.

"Well, some of the weapons you asked me to build have already come out, but the drawings you gave me, although they are just the appearance of ordinary weapons, some of the details are extremely tricky, just like there is a thin groove on the body of each sword, although it doesn't look unusual, but it took nearly half a month for the craftsmen to make the first one. ”

Hearing this, Gu Chen also nodded in understanding, these grooves were in order to add Tiangang cold iron in the future, and the grooves he deliberately left on the sword body, although it was only a small change, but it also took a lot of effort.

"Let's go, let's see. He said to Lu Qi, and without waiting for her to agree, he raised his feet and walked towards the front of the table where the weapons were cast.

"Hey, who's that guy? Why haven't you seen it before?"

"Yes, look like that, it seems that the third miss is his attendant, don't you see that the third miss didn't walk with him?"

"It's weird, I seem to have seen this young man in black somewhere, oh, by the way, you haven't come yet, when this workshop was still being built, the third lady invited me to come over and see the equipment, I also saw this young man that day, and I heard the third miss say, these things we cast, but they were all drawn by this person's own hands." ”

β€œ......”

Gu Chen and Lu Qi walked forward one after the other, and the craftsmen around them who saw this scene couldn't help but whisper, and even the eyes that looked at Gu Chen had some subtle changes.

Especially the craftsman who seemed to be the most senior, when he said that these weapons were all from Gu Chen's hands, there was even a trace of reverence in the eyes of these people.

Of course, the whispers of the craftsmen fell into Gu Chen's ears, and he was also stunned when he heard this, then turned to look at Lu Qi, who was following closely behind, and said with a smile: "My third miss, I said that you didn't come together with me, lest others think that I have overstepped the bounds." ”

"Huh?" Lu Qiqiao raised his face and glanced at him suspiciously, and then his eyes fell on the craftsmen who were pointing in this direction.

Her face turned red, and she glared at the craftsmen who were talking nonsense, and said: "What do you mean by being hindered, this workshop is originally yours, and I am just temporarily managing it for you, who dares to chew the root of his tongue, see if I don't tear his mouth." As she spoke, she didn't forget to raise her weaker fist, which caused Gu Chen to laugh again.

"Forget it, the owner of this workshop is you, I'm an idle person, so I don't want to be tied here. Gu Chen flicked his smooth forehead angrily, and immediately stopped paying attention to what others said, and stayed straight in front of the long weapon table.

"Well, yes, the iron quality is very good, and the casting level is also very high, although there are still some flaws in shrinking this groove, but it is not easy to do this. ”

He picked up an iron sword that had been cast in front of him, and his fingers slowly slashed over it, and the sword body swayed lightly, accompanied by an extremely subtle sound of Weng falling into his ears.

"Huh, there are still flaws?" Hearing this, Lu Qi on the side couldn't help but be stunned, since this sword was cast, she had already looked at it more than a hundred times, and asked herself from the hilt of the sword to the sword body, I want the drawing to be not the same.

Gu Chen nodded, as if he saw the disbelief on her face, so he flipped his wrist and directly placed the tiny groove that ran through the entire sword body in front of her eyes, and said, "You pay attention to here, and here, these are all branches of this main groove, although there are only a few of them, but they are very important in my transformation of them later." ”

"And these small branch grooves obviously do not extend enough length, even if they can be successfully transformed later, but the power will be greatly reduced, and it can only be equivalent to a defective Cheng dΓΉ. ”

Looking along the place of his finger, Lu Qi really saw some smaller branch grooves on the side of the small main groove, and when she was studying the drawings before, she had also asked the craftsmen this question, but at that time, even the oldest craftsman said that such a sword body would never be cast, and even if it was cast, the sword would not have strong enough hardness and would be easy to break when touched, so they later simplified this design as much as possible.

"Gu Chen, Master Yi said that your design was originally flawed, so it was not cast exactly according to the drawings, and I also think what he said is correct, what we cast can't be broken when touched. Lu Qidai frowned lightly and asked with some puzzlement.

"Master Yi?"

"Well, it's the master of the workshop, who was specially hired by my father, and is one of the masters with the best casting technology in Tianyan City. ”

As he spoke, Lu Qi waved his hand at a white-haired old man by the fireside, signaling him to come here.

Getting closer, Gu Chen took a closer look at the energetic old man, although he was close to the age of sixties, but the old man was only wearing a lunch break shirt, and his exposed chest was full of strong muscles, it seemed that even an ordinary adult could not be compared with his body.

"Third Miss......" Master Yi respectfully bowed his head towards Lu Qi, but his eyes fell on Gu Chen, and after thinking for a long time, he didn't know what to call him.

"You always call me Gu Chen. Seeing his embarrassment, Gu Chen also hurriedly bowed to the old man and said sincerely.

"It turned out to be Young Master Gu Chen, I don't know what to do with looking for Lao Er?"

"That's right, just now I found some problems when I was looking at this finished sword, and I want to discuss it with you. Gu Chen said with a smile, and there was not the slightest oppression on his face, but it made this Master Yi enjoy it very much.

Originally, he was already a master of casting, if someone said in front of him that the thing he cast was flawed, it was estimated that before that person could react, he would have already brushed his sleeves away, but today even he didn't know why, when he saw the young man in front of him with a warm face, he couldn't raise the slightest annoyance, but was willing to listen carefully.
