Soft armor is much more difficult to build than swords, guns, swords, halberds, black silver needs to be forged many times, quenched, finally liquefied, poured into abrasives, and finally drawn into silk threads.

At this point, the creation of soft armor can be regarded as the beginning.

"Okay, that's what it looks like!"

Zhang Ben stretched his brows at this time, and came over to guide Li Yuan to build, the creation of soft armor is quite fine, and the toughness and hardness of each silver wire are required, and if one is missing, it is not a top grade.

The master and apprentice were talking to themselves about the forging steps, and when they were about to get started, the sound of striking iron in the forging room suddenly stopped.

"Masters, stop for a moment."

Yu Zhen didn't know when he came to the door of the forging room, and when he saw everyone looking at him, he coughed lightly and said:

"I guess you also know the meaning of so-and-so, right?"

Inside the house, there was the sound of hammers falling to the ground, and the faces of the blacksmiths and helpers were a little unsightly.

After years of striking iron, they are far more burly and robust than the apprentices of the inner court, and their hammering skills are not bad, but they have no experience in fighting with people at all.

Not to mention going out of the city to fight the bandits.

"In the shopkeeper, there are only thirty-two people in the forging room, and it is not enough to strike iron every day, if some more are transferred, I am afraid that there will not be enough weapons to be transported to Fucheng!"

Zhang Ben bowed his hand slightly, and his face was not good-looking.

The forging room is under his control, but nominally, the current chief of the inner courtyard is Yu Zhen.

"What did Elder Zhang say? You're a well-known master of forging, and with you, are you afraid that you won't be able to use enough weapons?"

Yu Zhen half leaned against the door frame, his eyes slightly cold.

In the past few days after Qin Xiong's death, he has always been looking for the hammer masters in Gaoliu County over the years, and at the same time, he has also paid attention to the forging shop.

In addition to the old apprentices who came out of the inner courtyard, the group of people with the highest hammer method and the greatest strength in forging soldiers are in the forging room.

If there are really a few hidden hands, it may not be possible to sneak attack and hammer Qin Xiong.

What's more, he remembered Nian Jiu, whose heads were smashed in the dense forest......

"The old man will go to the big shopkeeper!"

Zhang Ben's eyelids jumped, and he said coldly, but he didn't move.

Yu Zhen dared to come to the forging room to transfer people, who did he mean, where did he not know?

Li Yuan carried the forging hammer, vigilant in his heart.

He remembered how clever this person was at using poisonous methods, and he could figure out something from the fact that the white ape root map that was supposed to be in his hands appeared in Qin Xiong's hands.

This knife catcher must have had another plan to stay in the forging shop......

"Why doesn't Elder Zhang go?"

Yu Zhen laughed, looked at everyone in the room, didn't care about Zhang Ben Tieqing's face at all, and began to point.

"You, the two of you, and the three over there, yes, the young one......

Finally, he rolled his eyes and looked at Li Yuan.

"Yu Zhen!"

Zhang Ben grabbed the hammer on the forging platform, but Li Yuan quickly stopped him.

"Elder Zhang misunderstood."

Yu Zhen smiled, he looked at the apprentice in the corner, he always felt a little familiar, but he didn't think much about it:

"This little brother is Zhang Lao's beloved apprentice, my apprentice with the highest talent in forging soldiers, Li Yuan?"

"What do you want to do?"

Zhang Ben stopped in front of Li Yuan, his eyes cold.

"The big shopkeeper specially instructed him, he is Zhang Lao's beloved apprentice, there is no need to wade into this troubled water, Yu is too curious, so come and take a look."

Yu Zhen's smile was gentle, not as aggressive as before:

"I don't know, how is the little brother's qi and blood cultivation?"

Li Yuan bowed his head slightly: "Back to the shopkeeper, he was taken care of by the master, and the disciple relied on the pill to barely push the blood qi to Xiaocheng......

"Xiaocheng?"

Yu Zhen nodded and didn't ask any more, just waved his hand, and left the forging room with a group of named people who were like mourners.

"This man is hateful!"

Zhang Ben was so angry that he trembled.

"It's a poisonous snake!"

Li Yuan pinched the forging hammer.

This seems to be gentle, but in fact it is very dangerous, and his words made the blacksmiths in the forge look at him and Zhang Ben with a change of taste.

A room full of apprentices, you only protect Li Yuan?

Only half of the blacksmiths were left to strike in silence, but Li Yuan felt their emotions and felt a slight chill in his heart.

"Hateful, hateful!"

Pulling the trembling old man's head, Li Yuan was calm:

"Master, let's forge armor first!"

"Prepare ...... first"

Zhang Ben slowed down for a while and gritted his teeth: "I'll go find the big shopkeeper!"

It's useless to look for it!

Feeling the gaze of the other brothers and sisters, Li Yuan pounded the iron heavily, clanging loudly.

……

Cao Yan was resolute.

That morning, he and Lin Qingfa of the Long-term Dart Bureau had led hundreds of people out of the city.

Li Yuan took a look, the momentum was quite huge, and there were many familiar faces in it who went to Fa Jiushan last time, such as Yue Yunjin and Wu Ming.

"Vipers ......"

When Li Yuan turned to leave, he glanced at it inadvertently, but saw that at the head of the city, Lu Bailing and others were watching from a distance, and the woman with the sword on her back was also there.

"I'm afraid this woman is not a guard, could it be Miss Lu's aunt who worshiped the inner gate of the Valley of the Divine Soldiers? But it seems to be too young......

Li Yuan muttered in his heart.

But this time he didn't look much, glanced at it, and hurried back, and when he came out, he found a tailor's shop and measured the size.

The size of the soft armor naturally depends on his body shape.

……

"The Viper Gang has gone too far, and Commander Qiu is not here, so he dares to rob and commit crimes, he really deserves to be killed!"

On the city wall, Lu Yunqing snorted coldly.

Glancing at the rabble in the distance, Fang Yunxiu didn't care much, just stared at Lu Yunqing: "Brother-in-law, Senior Brother Qiu was killed, did you really not know at all?"

"On the day of Commander Qiu's accident, I sat down with Master Void Peak and said, how did I know that there was such a tragic incident? If I had known, I would have gone with Commander Qiu!"

Lu Yunqing's expression was straight, and he sighed again:

"After that day, I ordered all the officials to search day and night, but there is still no clue, on the contrary, I also folded Qiu Da's head catcher, and I still don't know where to go......

"I hope it has nothing to do with you."

Fang Yunxiu was noncommittal and turned to leave.

"Auntie?"

Lu Bailing stood to the side, and only then did he dare to speak out.

"It's nothing."

Lu Yunqing shook his head slightly and smiled:

"Your aunt just suspects that her father's cultivation of 'worshipping gods has gone astray, and she has worshiped evil gods...... However, the Thousand-Eyed Bodhisattva is a righteous god who was enshrined by the imperial court thousands of years ago."

Lu Bailing didn't doubt it, and nodded:

"The Thousand-Eyed Bodhisattva is indeed a righteous god."

……

……

Six days later.

Wow!

The crimson inner armor was immersed in the biting ice water, raising a large amount of smoke and water vapor.

"Is it finished?"

Just listening to the sound of quenching, Zhang Ben became nervous.

Although there are still processes such as quenching and polishing after that, the grade of soft armor is set at this step.

"It's finished!"

Compared with Zhang Ben's apprehension, Li Yuan was sure in his heart, he had already seen the light on the soft armor.

【Black Silver Blue Water Inner Armor (Second Order)】

[Based on black silver, supplemented by blue sand, white secret mud...... For the assistance, the master of the army forged it himself, and poured a lot of effort and expectation, the first inner armor]

【Palm Condition: Horizontal Training Mastery】

[Palm Control Effect: Light Soldiers Difficult to Injury, Horizontal Training Talent]

It's a second-order!

Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the first time he created a high-grade soft armor, he really didn't know the bottom.

Steps of forging

Too much and too miscellaneous, which step of the business trip, will affect the final quality, fortunately, on the second order, not inferior to the one in the warehouse.

And......

"The conditions for mastery have been reduced a lot!"

Creating an inner armor with his own hands, Li Yuan was happy in his heart, and after taking out the inner armor from the ice water, Zhang Ben couldn't help but feel happy in his heart:

"Good boy, the most difficult top-grade inner armor has been played!"

"It's the master's guidance throughout the process, otherwise the disciple is afraid that he won't be able to succeed at the first time."

Li Yuan thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

All the steps of building soft armor were attended by Zhang Ben throughout the whole process, and he was almost taught by hand.

"What nonsense, praise you and continue!"

Zhang Ben scolded with a smile, looking at the soft armor that had not yet been tempered and polished, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

In addition to the difference between the selection of materials and the heat, this soft armor really seems to have been created by him, and even the habits of the corners and corners carry his shadow.

"It's rare that you're so happy, what about the price of this soft armor?"

"Rejoicing is rejoicing, buying and selling is buying and selling."

Before Li Yuan finished speaking, Zhang Ben had already scolded with a smile and threw the soft armor back:

"It only takes two days to temper and polish, but it takes at least a year and a half to soak, and it is still far from the finished product!"

Something worth two or three hundred taels is naturally not something that can be built in ten days and half a month.

However, Li Yuan doesn't care, he only needs to control it, semi-finished products and finished products have no effect on him, and if they are soaked for a month or two, the appearance will be worse.

If you don't dislike it, it's dark right now, and it's not that you can't use it.

But naturally, you can't say this to Zhang Ben, otherwise you will be scolded.

"Horizontal training is proficient, but it's not so fast......

Skillful tempering, Li Yuan looked at the iron sand used to polish the knives in the corner, ordinary people rub it, and the skin will rot, right?

……

The half-finished inner armor, Li Yuan was not willing to leave his hand, and slipped out of the forging shop, and he put it on the gray stone platform that was already a little crowded.

Although there are rules in the shop, and the first blade of different quality that he makes with his own hands can be bought at half price, he is not at ease.

A rare thing of two or three hundred taels, if it is cut off, he is afraid that he will vomit blood.

"Everything is safe."

According to the rules, Li Yuan felt at ease, and he didn't pay for it.

In the forging room, there is no shortage of scrap iron, pig iron and the like to go out to sell, Li Yuan is more convenient than them, but he also paid for a bag of iron sand.

For the sake of this thing, it is impossible to give people a handle.

"Why are you here?"

Li Yuan was going to put the iron sand home first, and then go to the second brother's house for dinner, but as soon as he pushed the door, he saw Sun Fatzi.

and, a table of food and drinks.

"The work in the middle courtyard, Fat Zhong is doing a good job, I'm idle, I'll stay with you for a few days."

Sun Fatzi poured wine.

"How many days?"

Li Yuan glanced at the house, and the futon had brought three beds.

"Oh, I'm afraid."

Sun Fatzi frowned sadly.

Since returning to the city, he has not dared to sleep alone, and in his dreams he either dreamed that his brother-in-law and sister were killed, or that he was caught by bandits again.

After carrying it for ten days, I really couldn't bear it.

"It's good if you're here."

Li Yuan pulled a chicken leg and ate it, and agreed to let Sun Fatzi stay.

Iron sand rubs the body, and one person can wipe it unevenly.
