[Chapter 148: The Failure of the Great Master] (3 more)
The seven great craftsmen of Zhuge came to Qingfeng City!
This news is nothing in the aristocratic circle, but it is a rare good news for those who practice martial arts, and for a while, a group of low-level swordsmen rushed to tell each other, wanting to get a weapon created by Zhuge Qi.
Among the heavenly shijie, the status of the craftsman is neither high nor low, and it is far from being comparable with the aristocratic class, of course, and compared with professionals such as Taoist priests, divine attendants and swordsmen, it can be said that it is slightly inferior at most.
Of course, the main reason is that craftsmen are often swordsmen themselves, just like most of the pill masters have a part-time job as a Taoist priest, although their level is not too high, but without this foundation, they can't do their own job.
In addition, the weapons forged by the craftsman can greatly improve the combat power of the swordsman, which is naturally the basis of the status of the craftsman.
In the earthly world, it is difficult to find a trace of a divine craftsman, even a master craftsman who can forge the simplest cultivator weapons is rarely in the world, and the highest level of master craftsmen that most people can access is just a master craftsman like Zhuge Qi.
A craftsman can make an ordinary sword of green steel, but a master craftsman can make a sharp sword—and if they are lucky, they will have the opportunity to forge a sword.
Zhuge Qi's level is probably at this level.
In this way, it is enough to make a sensation for the martial artist, and even the city lord Changsun Wuliang has to give him such a point or two of face.
After all, Zhuge Qi's works are already eligible to enter his collection.
For example, a sword of the level of Mo Poison Sword, Zhuge Qihua can also be forged with a little effort.
Therefore, the eldest grandson Wuliang was still in high spirits, and went to the hall where Zhuge Qi stayed to hand over the post, and asked him to come over to talk about it - but he didn't expect to eat the closed door, and Zhuge Qi closed the door to thank the guests. No one saw it, but it disappointed a group of swordsmen who came with great expectations and even a lot of money.
The eldest grandson Wuliang was furious, he didn't expect that even a blacksmith would dare not give him face, but after the people he sent asked what Zhuge Qi was doing, he had to pretend to be deaf and dumb. The matter was never mentioned again.
Zhuge Qi is to repair the wave cutting sword for the little prince Xinyinjun!
This is a top priority, although the eldest grandson Wuliang is old and faint, he has also been paying attention to the progress of this matter, for fear that once the incident happens, the anger of the king of Fubo County will also affect him.
I heard before that Li Chun had a way, although he was a blessed person, but after all, he was young, and the eldest grandson Wuliang always felt a little unreliable. Now that there is a master craftsman Zhuge Qi, there is always a little more hope.
- So even after eating the closed door, he didn't dare to let out more fart, just quietly waited for things to develop.
Zhuge Qi's first attempt to repair the Wave Chopping Sword ended in failure.
He fused the horns of the seven red eyes and white deer into a gelatinous shape, combined with the wing blood of the Big-winged Horned Demon, which triggered the characteristics of tiger bone germination, and really attracted the spirit of steel that cut the waves and broke the sword. Attract bonding.
Then it is solidified with 100 refined steel, and smelted three times with red-hot fine fire. Quenched in the cold spring water, and finally reluctantly picked up the wave cutting sword.
It's a pity that only its shape is visible, and when it touches other blades lightly, the wave cutting sword breaks again.
Zhuge Qi's explanation for this is that his order is wrong. Maybe it is the right thing to fix first, and then to continue the hair, so the next day, he came again with great painstaking efforts.
-- Still failing.
Zhuge Qi is already an old man who is nearly sixty years old. has long had gray hair, and after two failures, his body has become more rickety, and his face has become more sallow, but he still refuses to admit that it is his own problem.
"The quality of the tiger bone is not high enough, although the Yellow Whisker Tiger King is brave, but it is not as wise as the Golden-eyed Black Cloud Tiger, if there is the backbone of the Golden-eyed Black Cloud Tiger, then this sword casting will be successful!"
This is how he explained to the father and son of the Meng family.
So the father and son of the Meng family went crazy to find the backbone of the golden-eyed black cloud tiger - they accompanied Zhuge Qi to experience two failures, and their hearts were raised to their throats, especially when they saw that the Wave Chopping Sword had obviously been picked up, but Zuihou was trembling and broken, and the heartache was simply indescribable.
Now no matter what Zhuge Qi says, they have to work hard to complete it, and this master has become a straw for them to grasp.
The golden-eyed black cloud tiger breed is rare, although the strength is not very strong, but it is extremely rare, whether it is a local trading house, or a hunter organization, there is no inventory of this tiger's backbone.
But someone finally remembered that there was still a golden-eyed black cloud tiger in the hunter center, which was brought back by Jiang Dayuan's hunting team a few days ago.
Meng Zhuangsheng immediately found Jiang Dayuan and offered a sky-high price.
"Don't sell it! This tiger is not mine, I have already given it to Li Chun's little brother, if you want to buy it, go find him!"
Jiang Dayuan refused - in fact, if Li Chun heard this price, he might still be moved.
"Li Chun, why is it Li Chun again?"
Meng Zhuangsheng gritted his teeth, he knew that Li Chun had followed Jiang Dayuan's team back to Qingfeng City, but thinking that with his kid's strength, even if Jiang Dayuan shared his share, the golden-eyed black cloud tiger could not completely belong to him, who knew that Jiang Dayuan actually said that the tiger was Li Chun's from beginning to end.
What is this shijie!
Xin Yinjun regarded Li Chun as his eldest brother, and Jiang Dayuan gave him such a precious tiger, is this kid the emperor's illegitimate son, why is everyone so good to him?
He was angry, and Meng Tong was even more angry.
But now, only when Li Chun comes back can he make any more plans.
Anyway...... Zhuge Qi said that if he can't repair the Wave Cutting Sword, then it is impossible for anyone in the entire Northern Xinjiang to be able to repair the Wave Cutting Sword, and it is absolutely impossible for a layman like Li Chun who has never been in contact with forging at all!
In this way, there is room for cooperation with him.
As long as he is willing to sacrifice the tiger bone of the golden-eyed black cloud tiger, he will not expose his inability to repair the Wave Chopping Sword, everyone shares the credit, of course, the Meng family takes the big head, he takes the small head, and he will be willing to think about it.
Meng Zhuangsheng spent a lot of effort to convince Meng Tong.
- Now he began to worry about whether Li Chun would feel that he could not complete the task of repairing the Wave Cutting Sword and absconded in fear of crime, and at that time he could only try to persuade Xin Yinjun to find a way to forcibly requisition the golden-eyed Black Cloud Tiger, so as to fulfill the requirements of the Seven Great Craftsmen of Zhuge .
Li Chun...... Come back soon!"
In the expectation of many people, and in the prayer of Meng Zhuangsheng's gnashing teeth, Li Chun finally came back in disgrace.
It's really disgraced.
Unkempt, dirty, and in short, he looks quite embarrassed.
However, between his eyebrows, there was a joy that could not be concealed.
-- Of course, under the cover of their hair, the messengers who probed their brains by the side of the road could not see clearly. (To be continued......)
