Chapter 52: The Winged Bat and the Silver-Scale Breastplate
"Bang bang!" the loud sound of the wooden door being hammered almost knocked down the beams of the thatched house, and Chu Qili got up from the bed in a panic and opened the door with his bare feet.
Seeing the woman in front of him, Chu Heli didn't dare to provoke him, the anger in his heart faded by three points, and he asked casually, "Sister Ling Lin, what are you doing here early in the morning?"
Qi Linglin pushed away Chu Heli, who was blocking the door, walked into the hut by herself, threw the blueprint of the armor-piercing crossbow on the table, and asked dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by this?"
Chu Qili was confused by her question, and he checked the drawings of the armor-piercing crossbow again, and repeatedly confirmed the contents on it, "It's no problem, this is how the armor-piercing crossbow is made."
"I'm a blacksmith, so I know it's fine, and it's very subtle. Qi Linglin didn't deny it, and there was even a bit of obsession in her eyes.
"Then you ......" Chu Qili had just opened his mouth but was interrupted, Qi Linglin frowned and said: "This kind of iron weapon, as long as it is created in sufficient quantities, can completely raise the strength of a medium-sized tribe to the level of a large tribe." If a large tribe obtains this kind of blueprint, it can even dominate one side!"
"That's right, but it alone can't make a medium-sized tribe rank among the large tribes, at least in terms of high-end combat power, it can completely kill the first-class medium-sized tribe of the Chu tribe. Chu Qili looked at the drawings, nodded, and said seriously, "But it can indeed make the Qi clan dominate one side." ”
Seeing that he knew the power of the armor-piercing crossbow so well, Qi Linglin was even more puzzled about what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, "So why do you still show me this drawing?"
"You're an interesting person, it's you who pestered me for drawings on the road, and it's you who don't want to see it now. Chu Qili was quite helpless, complaining while putting on his shoes.
"I'm not as particular as you think, and since I've seen this drawing, I'll definitely forge this armor-piercing crossbow and arm my people. Qi Linglin did not hide the thoughts in her heart, and hyped up her armed plan.
Seeing that Chu Qili was still calm, Qi Linglin felt a little uncertain in her heart, and said inwardly: "Don't look at me young, but I have the cultivation of the fourth order of the Sumeru realm, I don't think that the group of old, weak, sick and disabled under your command can keep me......"
"Sister Ling Lin, what are you talking about, I didn't kidnap you to the Chu tribe. Chu Qili rummaged through the empty room, "Well, I don't have anything to eat here to entertain you, if you want to eat, tell me, I'll take you somewhere else." ”
"I'm not hungry..."Qi Linglin muttered in response, and thought that it was indeed he who took the initiative to follow the Chu tribe, but he really couldn't figure out why, so he said, "Then what do you want? money, food, or people?" She suddenly realized again: "You can't take a fancy to Qi Qi, ......right?
"Are you so anxious about your niece getting married?" Chu Qili glanced at her, "I'll take you out for dinner, so that you don't have to continue to think here." ”
Chu Heli was about to go out, but was grabbed by her, "Then why did you show me such valuable drawings? There must be a purpose, right? It can't be that you like me, right?"
"How can there be so many calculations?In this troubled world, we are all human beings, and we all have to protect a group of clansmen from harm, is this enough?" Chu Hate left a serious path, "Or if the Chu clan suffers one day, you are willing to bring someone to save us, it will be considered a repayment." ”
Seeing that Chu Hatli was full of seriousness, Qi Linglin said disdainfully: "Who wants to repay you......"
Seeing that she turned her head to leave, Chu Qili called out: "Why are you leaving? Don't go to eat? Then I'll go to you later, there are still things to forge." ”
"As long as the wages are in place, we are always waiting for you. Qi Linglin didn't look back, she walked by herself, and didn't forget to stretch out her hand and twist her fingers, making a gesture of counting money.
"There are still many days before the 'New Year's Ceremony', and during this time, we must give full play to the role of the elite blacksmiths of the Qi clan. Chu Qili nodded, thinking about what things should be forged. Flipping through the exchange bar in the system, Chu Qili considered which irons were most suitable for the current situation, "I don't know what happened within the tribe." ”
The last time I was in the limelight in the Spirit Master Qualifier, I gained a lot of faith points, and my faith points were increased to as much as 5,000. But the expensive drawings still discouraged him, and he had to think carefully about how to use them wisely.
Winged bats: made of fine iron, as thin as cicada wings. Stepping on the breeze, you can sway up and walk smoothly.
Such a drawing attracted Chu Qili's attention, and he couldn't help but analyze to himself, "Although this thing is difficult to mass-produce, it can greatly improve my ability, and with it, I can inquire about the situation in the tribe." I don't know if Sister Ling Lin can complete the forging of this difficulty......"
Silverscale Breastplate: The armor is lightweight and can resist external injuries.
"This silver-scaled cuirass can be mass-produced and distributed to the clansmen, which should improve everyone's survivability. Chu Qili looked at the armor blueprint worth a hundred faith points, and felt that it was very worthwhile, so he immediately exchanged it.
"Bang bang..." Chu Heli was struggling with whether to exchange for the winged bat, and when he was interrupted, he had to complain: "I really won't pick the time......
Pushing open the wooden door, the white hair of the wheat mang seemed to stand on his head, and Chu Qili recognized the other party at a glance as the arrogant old blacksmith ———— Qi Zhengyang.
Qi Zhengyang was a little restrained, and said tentatively: "Chu Xiaoyou, my master ordered me to come to you to listen to orders, I don't know if Xiaoyou has any iron tools that need to be forged?"
Whenever Chu Geli saw that this old man who was over the age of sixteen was called Sister Ling Lin, he felt a little disobedient. Holding back a smile, Chu Qili coughed twice and said, "Then it's troublesome Master Qi, please come with me." Chu Heli led the old man to the house, Qi Zhengyang smiled embarrassedly: "My master is full of praise for Xiaoyou's drawings, Xiaoyou don't tease the old man, just call me Yanggong." ”
"Then I'll call you Mr. Qi. Chu Qili felt that something was wrong, so he compromised and said, "Old Mr. Qi, I need you to bring everyone to help forge this thing." Chu Qili handed him the drawings of the silver scale breastplate, but Qi Zhengyang did not accept the drawings, "Little friend, the master said that please do something to the hands and feet, so that we can see what it is." ”
"It's not necessary, it's just a cuirass, and there's nothing subtle about the drawings. However, the requirements for your forging techniques are not low. Chu Qili shook his head and said with a smile. Qi Zhengyang frowned and looked embarrassed.
"Mr. Qi really doesn't have to mind, there is no mystery in this drawing. It's a big deal, I'll explain it to Sister Ling Lin when the time comes, so you can rest assured. Chu Qili stuffed the drawings into the old man's hand, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
"Then the old decay will be seen first. Qi Zhengyang opened the drawings tremblingly, browsed carefully for a long time, nodded from time to time, and exclaimed, "It is really extraordinary from Xiaoyou's handwriting, no wonder even the talented person of the master is full of praise for you." ”
"The old gentleman praised it falsely," Chu Qili was a little embarrassed by his praise, this drawing came from the system, and he had a bit of an impostor taste like this. Chu Qili asked in a low voice again, "Is Sister Ling Lin's forging level really that exaggerated?"
"The old man studied the art of forging all his life, and was only defeated by her ten years of work. The key is that she is still self-taught, as if she is favored by the god of forging. Qi Zhengyang sighed, there was a lot of helplessness in his tone, maybe this was also the powerlessness he had when he fought against the genius, "Let's put it this way, you can always trust her forging ability, the drawings that we people can get, there may not be any drawings that she can't forge." Perhaps only the more central areas can compete with one of the opponents. ”
Hearing such a high evaluation from Mr. Qi, Chu Geli nodded, and made a decision in his heart.
