Mo Lan's request
"I don't know if I can borrow the casting room for a purpose?" Shangguan Yi changed the topic and asked a question that made the strong man, the little monk and Hua Xiangrong confused.
"Foundry room, you?" The strong man's eyes were full of distrust, he could naturally guess that Shangguan Yi was going to refine snow cold silver, but Shangguan Yi would be able to cast? Such a small baby, unless you started educating him from the mother's womb, otherwise you said that he was a blacksmith with good skills, and the strong man didn't believe it, and he didn't believe it when he was killed.
"Well, you carefully broke the hard-won snow cold silver, and there will be no place to find the second piece then. Hua Xiangrong still has an understanding of his character of wanting to try everything and daring to try anything, so she was only slightly surprised and accepted it.
The little monk doesn't know much about Shangguan Yi, but he feels that Shangguan Yi should have his own considerations, and he doesn't look like a guy who is reluctant to give up that bit of silver.
"Uncle, do you know that there is a peculiar method of forging swords, called "Piety". Shangguan Yi didn't take their opinions to heart, but just said a name that was very unfamiliar to the little monk: "Pious Heart".
Hua Xiangrong had heard a little bit about it, and he was a little surprised at this time; as for the strong man, he naturally knew about "Piety", and even knew it very well, except that he didn't know how to do it, he knew the rest.
Strictly speaking, "Piety" can only be a kind of mental method used by the swordsman, it is not a method of sword casting, but it is peculiar in that it makes the swordsman participate in the process of sword casting in disguise, which can make the fit between the swordsman and the sword reach a very high level, and the blessing of combat effectiveness is also unimaginable.
It's not that kind of very private thing, it's just too old, too far old to have the power recorded in the "Piety Heart", and its background will not be low, and it must have been glorious.
"There you go. The strong man's expression changed when he saw Shangguan Yi, originally he regarded Shangguan Yi and the three as juniors, but now, ...... He suddenly realized that none of these three seemed to be simple people, and they didn't need his care at all. He didn't even want to explore how Piety did what it does, because it was only suitable for swordsmen, not for blacksmiths or other professions, and second, he was really in no mood.
"Uncle Xie. Shangguan Yi faintly guessed his thoughts, thanked him a little helplessly, and walked to his casting room.
He and the three of them may have been people from two worlds from the beginning, and the intersection was only this ore incident, helpless but powerless, the fact is that the pursuit is different, the encounter is different, and the experience will naturally be different.
The strong man's casting room has been burning flames, and it is not an ordinary flame, well, it should be said that the material for ignition is not an ordinary material, so the temperature of the flame is not ordinary.
The swordsman raises the sword, and the blacksmith naturally raises the fire, and the quality of this fire determines the quality of the things he forges to a large extent.
Shangguan Yi carried out a preliminary refining of the ore according to the general steps of a blacksmith, and brought out the snow cold silver inside, but it still contained a lot of impurities, and then it was refined, the blacksmith had the method of a blacksmith, but Shangguan Yi was ready to use "Piety" here.
As the name suggests, take the next steps with a reverent heart. It's very abstract, but it sums up its main theme, piety.
Will the swordsman cast? Yes, but most of them won't, and it is unrealistic to let them refine the ore according to the blacksmith's method, so "Piety" is the material that the swordsman is best at forging a sword, and conveying his sword energy, sword intent, and sword heart to it, so that the material knows, understands, and integrates some to adapt, transform himself, and become the material of the exclusive swordsman.
This is "Piety".
This kind of process is actually less than the physical strength consumed by a big battle, or even exceeding, because you have to use your own ultimate, and you have to use it constantly, although it is not released all at once, but the requirements for control make this process unimaginably difficult.
Shangguan Yi's trick is naturally the three-style Xingyi Sword that he realized, and the other moves, he doesn't know, but it doesn't really belong to him, and the fit with him is not high, so there is no need to use it to breed this piece of snow cold silver.
Blooming Style!
Two-style: Selfless!
Three-style asked!
These three swords were replaced by Shangguan Yi with a hammer, and he used all his strength to beat them down, hammering and refining this piece of snow cold silver with a lot of impurities.
This time, Shangguan Yi had no reservations, in fact, he entered the casting room alone for this reason, if there was no one else watching, he would have no need to scruple, he could completely exert the strength of his body to carry out the most thorough refining of Xue Hanyin......
In fact, one of the reasons why he didn't let the strong man help was that he felt that the strong man was not good at technology, but strength, and who could compare to his innate divine power? At least not strong men.
This refining process lasted for half an hour, and after half an hour, Shangguan Yi came out with a cube of silver metal about the size of a strong man's fist, and this was the result of his refining.
"This is in good condition, it is the best grade, but this amount is ...... Isn't it quite right?" The strong man looked at the snow cold silver in Shangguan Yi's hand, and asked suspiciously, if he knew that this would be the case, he would have helped Shangguan Yi complete the first step first!
"Well, you taste, taste it. Shangguan Yi handed the snow cold silver nugget to the strong man, with some smugness in his expression.
"Huh?" The strong man took it puzzled, wanting to see what Shangguan Yi meant, but as soon as he started, he understood what Shangguan Yi meant, this piece of snow cold silver the size of his fist weighed about fifteen catties, which was almost all snow cold silver.
"Good boy, yes. The strong man sighed and returned the metal to Shangguan Yi. Although he didn't know whether this result was caused by "Piety" or other reasons, it was definitely very difficult, and if he were to refine it, he could only shrink the snow cold silver to more than twice the size of this piece, and he would no longer be able to shrink it.
"Thanks to Uncle's equipment and flames, if it weren't for the assistance of these things, it would have been difficult for me to do it. Shangguan Yi didn't hesitate to praise his uncle, if it weren't for his foundry room, he really didn't know where to find a foundry room to complete this step.
"Hmph, it's good that you know, but I managed to get these things together, and they are very precious, so cheap for you kid. The strong man said that his treasure was proud, and he thought that it was indeed his proud work, right? Just like when Shangguan Yi's sword was cast in the future, others praised him for his good sword, and Shangguan Yi would also be very proud.
"Then I'll give you money, six thousand taels of material fees, one hundred taels of rental fees, uncle, don't be too little. Shangguan Yi handed the prepared silver ticket to the strong man.
"Are you leaving?" the strong man didn't refuse, and took the silver ticket.
"Yes, I have something else to do, and I've been bothering you for a long time, so it's time to take my leave. Shangguan Yi nodded.
The strong man also nodded and said, "Okay, come to me again if you need to." ”
"Definitely. Shangguan Yi gladly accepted.
Then the three of them left the ore shop.
"Do you still have any silver on you?" Shangguan Yi suddenly asked as he walked with them.
"What, I'm going to find him?" Hua Xiangrong asked in surprise.
"Well, I've been there for a long time, it's just mid-morning now, it's better to go to him, and if you delay a while, it is estimated that the daylilies will be cold. Shangguan Yi looked at the position of the sun and said.
"Oh, too. Then you go, the little monk and I still have money, and it shouldn't cost much money, Anla. Hua Xiangrong heard this, but it was also the same reason, and waved his hand to signal Shangguan Yi to get out quickly.
"Then I'm leaving. Shangguan Yi left these four words and rushed to Bihai Pavilion, leaving Hua Xiangrong and the little monk to still go to the inn.
When Shangguan Yi arrived at Bihai Pavilion, there were already attendants waiting for him at the door, and when he saw him coming, he said, "You are here, please come with me." ”
Shangguan Yi glanced at the first floor, it may be too early, no one has come to buy anything yet, of course, it is also because this shop is not particularly popular, right? After seeing this glance, Shangguan Yi followed the attendant to the second floor, he knew that Master Mo was already waiting for him, although he didn't know what was so anxious.
"Knock Knock"
The attendant stopped in front of an inconspicuous room on the second floor and knocked on the door.
"Please come in. Mo Lan's voice sounded, and the attendant made a "please" gesture to Shangguan Yi.
Shangguan Yi pushed open the door and saw Mo Lan sitting next to the desk looking at a book that he didn't know what it was, quite seriously.
"Lord Mo is looking for me?" this is Shangguan Yi's ridicule.
"Hmph, sit down. Mo Lan ignored it, pointed to the seat in front of him, and motioned for Shangguan Yi to sit down and speak.
"Doesn't Lord Mo need to go to the early court?Or is it already in the court?" Shangguan Yi sat down and chatted with Mo Lan in a regular manner, he actually didn't expect this to be Mo Lan's study, but even if he thought about it, he had to come in.
"Don't you know if I went or not? What's more, it's not normal for the people of Dali Temple not to go to the early dynasty occasionally because they are busy with official business? Now that Lord Jun is back, with him in charge of the overall situation, I don't have to go. Mo Lan snorted coldly.
"Is it possible that Lord Mo is not on good terms with Lord Jun?" Shangguan Yi asked tentatively, the tone of this person's speech was not good.
"There is nothing harmonious or discordant, at most we have a little political discord, and we can't talk about grievances. Mo Lan seemed a little unhappy when she said this.
"Eh, what does that matter to me?" Shangguan Yi was a little confused, even if you and Jun Yishen had some small contradictions that could be resolved, then why are you looking for him, why are you looking for me?
"Don't worry, just look at this dossier. Mo Lan turned a few pages of the book he was reading and handed it to Shangguan Yi.
"This ...... "Shangguan Yi didn't take it, no matter where Mo Lan brought this book from, as long as it is crowned with the word "dossier", then he can't read it as an outsider, if it is discovered, whether it is Shangguan Yi or Mo Lan, it will be a lot of trouble, after all, this is a top secret thing.
"Then I'll tell you?" Mo Lan saw that Shangguan Yi was not fooled, raised his eyebrows, and changed his words.
"Can't you open the skylight and say bright words?" Shangguan Yi frowned, always feeling that Mo Lan had a bit of a weasel giving a chicken a New Year's greeting.
"Hmph, I heard that you and Jun Yishen went all the way to Kyoto?" Mo Lan snorted coldly and asked.
"Yes. Shangguan Yi readily admitted.
"I heard that the execution ground in Hanchang was robbed by you and Yue Zhengdao together?" Mo Lan asked again.
"Yes, but we can't say robbery, we stopped them openly. Shangguan Yi corrected.
"You are very familiar with Jun Yishen, Yue Zhengdao is very familiar?" Mo Lan ignored Guan Yi's correction and continued to ask.
"Not too familiar. "Shangguan Yi looked at Mo Lan like this, how dare he say that he is very familiar with them?
"Guess what I'm looking for you now. Mo Lan braked sharply to say this, but this time he had already given a few conditions, although it was in the form of a question sentence, but as I said before, in the process of verification, some of your information will also be exposed to the person being asked.
Shangguan Yi thought for a moment, but still shook his head.
"Tell me what you think. Of course, Mo Lan knew that he couldn't guess, because Mo Lan himself couldn't guess either.
"The emperor handed over the investigation of the case to you, but it was too troublesome, so you are very unhappy?" Shangguan Yi said tentatively.
"Only the first sentence is right, I'm not afraid that the case is very troublesome, the trouble is challenging, if it's not troublesome, where do you need me to go out in person?" Mo Lan shook his head, and then said a little irritably: "The emperor unexpectedly arranged for Yue Zhengdao to participate in this case together, and he is at the same level as me in the case, that is to say, all major decisions must be passed with the permission of the two of us." The emperor meant to send him to help me, but I need a gentleman who doesn't know anything?
"Eh......" Where did Shangguan Yi think that there would be this development, and even, it was already incredible for him to tell Mo Lan to solve this matter, but he didn't expect that there would be more amazing things to come.
"I proposed to the emperor to remove Yue Zhengdao, but the emperor unexpectedly refused, and I couldn't help it, thinking that I had to discuss it with that guy first. But you may not be able to imagine how deep the water behind this matter is, I don't dare to go to the door to find Yue Zhengdao, after all, I didn't have anything to do with him before, and if I came to the door for no reason, there must be a ghost, and if I fall into the eyes of someone with a heart, I am afraid that it will startle the snake. Mo Lan finally got to the point.
"So you want to ask me to bring the letter over?" Shangguan Yi understood.
Mo Lan shook her head and said, "No, I want you to bring me over." ”
"Huh?" Shangguan Yi was taken aback for a moment and asked, "How can I take you out of here and then into Yue's house?
"Don't get excited, you can't go empty-handed when you're a guest at someone's place, right?" Mo Lan hinted.
"This, too, but there's no such thing as a free lunch, right?" Shangguan Yi learned his tone and begged for payment.
"You don't charge money for buying information in Bihai Pavilion, and what you owe before will also be written off. "Mo Lan is very refreshing and atmospheric.
"It's okay~" Shangguan Yi decisively agreed.
