Chapter 42: The Blacksmith Knows How to Live

In the cave, the old ape sits next to the fairy flower and closes his eyes silently, the flower buds gradually open with the floating of spiritual power, there is the scene of a hundred birds taking off, and there is the freedom of the turtle out of the water, and there is the spectacular attack of the spirit beast......

Finally, all year round, a hundred years appear on the buds.

There were more and more auspicious scenes, and I don't know when the old man appeared under the towering tree again.

The old ape said softly: "After the gambling game is over, you and I are friends or foes, can you count the seniors." ”

The old man said in a deep voice: "You still don't think about the consequences when you do things. ”

The old ape ignored this sentence.

"Don't worry, the Terrans outside are dead, and what happened here is as if it never happened. Of course, some people have also noticed this. The old man said.

The old ape said, "I will leave here as soon as possible." ”

The old man frowned and asked, "Do you have to wait for it to turn out?" Although we said that we were tied, after all, you gave up that step, and I can think that you have made your choice. ”

In fact, the old ape could have forcibly broken through the seal and ascended the mountain before, but he didn't.

"If you go up the mountain at that time, it means that you have completely broken with the demon clan, and of course I lost. But if you don't go up, it means that we all lose, or we all win, and this choice may be your only way. The old man explained.

The old man didn't stop, he continued: "Mo Ju, Mo Ju, I never thought that you would take that little human baby as an apprentice! What does this mean? I really can't guess you. ”

The old ape still turned his back to him, and said slowly: "Are you finished, please leave, or the two of us will go out and give it a try?"

The old man was not angry, he said calmly: "Twenty years, within twenty years, it will be the result, you leave, as for where to go, it is your last choice." After saying that, the old man disappeared.

Outside the cave, eighteen seals were added, and there were four people who were no less than the old man waiting outside, until the old man nodded and signaled, and everyone left one by one.

It's just that after these eighteen seals, the cave has its own world inside and outside.

Lin Xi stepped on the clouds, the speed was unexpectedly fast, not long ago Lin Xi could clearly feel a large amount of spiritual power surging behind him, and the spiritual power that covered the sky and the sun attacked him like a storm, but it didn't take long for all the spiritual power to dissipate, and the entire sky became exceptionally refreshing.

After that, there was no living creature in front of Lin Xi, and it wasn't until a few hours later that the last spiritual power behind him disappeared and everything returned to its original state.

Xiumi watched the boy leave a few peaks before slowly turning around and sweeping into the sky.

"Little brother, can you quench your thirst with herbal tea?"

"Guest officer, we have something here, but this ......" The shopkeeper was about to say something, but was stopped by the scene in front of him, he carefully looked at the young man in front of him.

I saw a young man in tattered clothes and a listless face walk in, and what was even more unbearable was that this young man exuded a foul smell.

The young man in front of him is obviously the master who begs on the street, eats, and drinks and can't afford to pay money.

The boy walked into the shop lazily, and sat down on a bench, all of the surrounding customers looking at him. They knew there was another good show coming up.

"Little boy, herbal tea is rare this season, do you want to try that fine wine, our daughter red here is affordable, and most of them are repeat customers. The shopkeeper said with a smile, the implication is that he is afraid that you will have no money to give after drinking.

The young man glanced at the shopkeeper and said, "I like this herbal tea, I'm really not interested in drinking now, don't worry, the money is enough." After speaking, the young man urged the shopkeeper to get the wine.

The shopkeeper answered suspiciously, and went to get tea without saying more. Most of the shops that open restaurants will not go to the customers seriously, you must know who has not met after many years of opening the store?

Ordinary people can back down if they can, how can they always make money when they open a store? Only those who come here to eat and drink for nothing can be serious. After all, the business still has to go on, and you can't mess with those villains. When the time comes, the signboard will be smashed in vain, and no one can be found to reason, so it will be a big loss.

"Little boy, your herbal tea is here. The shopkeeper served a small pot of tea and gave a plate of side dishes for free.

This is the usual method of the restaurant, first take a small pot of tea to try if you really don't have money, and then send a small plate of side dishes, so that the guests are embarrassed to make trouble here.

The young man glanced at the small pot of tea, then looked at the shopkeeper with a smile on his face and said, "Trouble brother, if there is other hot tea, trouble brother to run more." ”

"This, I said little brother, herbal tea can be drunk for free, but hot tea is really gone. The shopkeeper hurriedly excused himself, for fear that the young man would eat a bully meal.

You must know that many people here come to beg for rice, and most of them are the masters who have no money, what can they do if they have no money?

"Little brother, I have money on me, don't look at the tattered clothes I wear, but I really don't have a penny, those are too little, and I rarely bring them. The boy laughed.

As soon as the boy finished speaking, the surrounding spectators all held back laughter, and some of them couldn't help laughing, shouting at the boy with a thumbs up.

The shopkeeper didn't expect that the young man not only didn't thank the store for the side dishes, but also counted him down. You must know that their restaurant is not big. But it's one of the best in the town.

Just when the shopkeeper was angry, a silver ingot the size of a fist was thrown on the table by the young man with a "bang".

"Help me get a room, and then find a few suitable clothes to bring to me, if you don't have enough money, you can ask me, and if you have more, it's yours." The boy said as he drank his water.

The shopkeeper was stunned, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "Enough, enough." If there's anything you want, just tell me. ”

The people around who watched the excitement were all surprised, they knew that there was a master with a background, and they couldn't make a fuss, so they all ate their own food.

The young man drank wine, looked at the shopkeeper who trotted all the way to serve food, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's really rich to make ghosts grind.

In a short time, two jugs of fine wine and a plate of cooked beef were placed on the young man's table. It's just that the boy's plate of cooked beef has a lot more meat than the other guests.

Some of the spectators who wanted to see the young man's excitement before came over to toast him. The boy told them not to come to him to eat and drink, but to eat and drink and sell it himself, and turned them away in a few words.

After everyone listened, there was a black line. Of course, the boy's words were joking, but he didn't like to be disturbed by others.

After the young man had eaten and drunk enough, he stretched his waist with satisfaction and followed the shopkeeper to his room.

When he arrived at the room, the young man told the shopkeeper not to let people disturb him, and after speaking, he gave the shopkeeper a little broken silver, and saw the shopkeeper nod fiercely, so the boy closed the door with peace of mind.

"I can finally get some rest. The boy muttered to himself, then changed his clothes, and couldn't help but smile when he looked at his embarrassed appearance in the water in the basin. This person is the Lin Xi who escaped from that small world.

Along the way, Lin Xi didn't look back according to the old ape's words, but how do you know that there are still big mountains behind a few mountains, and you really can't see even a little human traffic, which is strange to say, he ran like this for several days in a row, and there was no movement in the rear.

Because of the old ape's words, Lin Xi rested for a while and continued to hurry, almost squinting and opening his eyes.

After a few days of back and forth, of course, there was a bit of a stink.

"You said you can run, why do you lock all the aura?" the soul in the body can finally speak.

Lin Xi said speechlessly: "Don't talk, if you hadn't locked the aura along the way, you would have been annoyed by your chatter before you escaped." ”

In fact, both he and the soul in his body understood that if he didn't completely hide the aura, someone would always find him, and in the end, Lin Xi simply locked the aura by himself.

After staying with the old ape, Lin Xi also understood some things about the monks, and of course he also asked for advice on the use of aura.

The strange thing is that when he was a child, no matter how Lin Xi asked Master Yang, Master Yang kept silent, just asked Lin Xi to figure it out by himself, or shirked him, he didn't know what the aura was all about.

And the old ape is different, the old ape is like a teacher and Lin Xi will be very careful.

The so-called aura is to gather the spirit of heaven and earth in the body on his body, so that his body can reach unimaginable strength, Lin Xi has understood this since he was a child.

The old ape said something different, he thinks that aura is used by the mind, and when the cultivation reaches a certain level, the heart is the source of the power.

To put it bluntly, the old ape told Lin Xi to control the aura with his heart like this.

Of course, these were all poured into his mind when he taught Lin Xiyun Bu.

"Heart Imperial Spirit?" Lin Xi said to himself, he couldn't remember the Dao and Fa on the mountain anymore, he only remembered that the white beam of light pierced through his mind at that time, and he couldn't capture any of it.

The soul in the body laughed, "You will have to thank the old monkey when you have a chance in the future." ”

He knew more than Lin Xi, and of course he understood how much the old ape had helped Lin Xi.

In the end, the gift that the old ape gave to Lin Xi was not only to help him dredge the aura in his body, but to completely open it up and make it easier for Lin Xi to practice.

"Don't say it, I only learned in those days that there are really demons in the world. ”

The soul in the body said angrily, "Didn't you know before?"

"At that time, I just listened to it as an interesting story, and I didn't pay much attention to it. Lin Xi said.

"Then you didn't lose money when you came out this time?"

"It's really good if you don't die, to be honest, I want to go to the Xingnan Sect as soon as possible to have a look. Lin Xi said sincerely.

After leaving Xiaotiandi, Lin Xi felt more and more that the world was too big, there were too many that he didn't know or hadn't seen, maybe it was really right to leave the town early. Or maybe he doesn't have a dark disease or Master Yang is still alive, will he stay in the town for the rest of his life?

But there is no possibility in the world, because Lin Xi is very satisfied with his current life.

"Childe, the best blacksmith shop you ever asked for has been found. Xiao Er said softly at the store.

Lin Xi opened the door and said, "There is Brother Lao to lead the way." ”

"Yes, yes, and thank you for the arrival of Childe to make the shop shine. Lin Xi doesn't feel much disgusted by the compliment of the shopkeeper now, he thinks that this is also a means for them to make a living.

The shopkeeper took Lin Xi to a blacksmith shop called "Soldier" and returned to the restaurant by himself.

As soon as Lin Xi walked into the blacksmith shop, there was a wave of heat. For Lin Xi, he can use breathing techniques to resist these heat waves. But those blacksmiths are not, and the blacksmiths inside are all shirtless and sweating profusely. In addition to the heat wave in the blacksmith shop, there is only the sound of "dangdang" striking iron.

When a man saw someone coming in, he said, "Is this boy here trying to make a weapon for whom?"

Lin Xi smiled and said, "For myself." ”

The man was startled at first, but quickly calmed down, thinking that a young man had built a weapon for himself, and it was estimated that he was another son of a family who wanted to go to the end of the world with a sword. He glanced at Lin Xi's dress and asked slowly, "What kind of weapon does Childe want?"

"The axe I used to chop wood fell off, and I wanted to make one. ”

The man was really shocked this time, if it was okay to build other weapons, he actually came to build an axe. I don't think anyone will believe it.

"Childe, don't I'm kidding, if you lose the axe, you can buy one, why bother us to build one here, you must know that the cost is many times higher than that of ordinary axes. This man thinks that Lin Xi is an ignorant teenager, so he wants to scare him away with the price.

"I'm serious, I don't think other weapons have axes to use, just one axe, I don't think it's much of a problem. After speaking, Lin Xi took out the money bag and gave it all to the man.

The man opened the money bag and saw that golden light flashed out, and it was full of gold.

The man had seen so much money, and he thought that the young man in front of him was definitely the eldest son of a family, and he definitely couldn't afford to provoke him, so he said in a trembling voice: "Childe, let's build you an axe, you don't need so much money." ”

Looking at the man's frightened expression, Lin Xi reacted at this time, and immediately took back the gold in that area and poured out a third of it and handed it to the man.

"Uncle I'm really embarrassed, I'm indeed a child of a big family, our family has been used to using axes for generations, and I can't change it, you can collect this money, this is what you deserve, no one will trouble you." ”

After Lin Xi's series of fabricated identities to persuade the man in the blacksmith shop, the man was able to accept the gold with peace of mind.

"What kind of axe does Childe need, and when will he ......get it?"

Before the man could finish speaking, Lin Xi interrupted: "I don't want you to build it, I want to rent your shop for a day and make an ax by myself." ”

"This ...... Okay, Childe, please. We're just out there, and we're called when we need it. "That bit of gold is enough to rent a blacksmith shop for a month, even if the man doesn't believe that a teenager can build his own weapons, there is no way, after all, people have enough money.

Lin Xi closed the door after entering the blacksmith shop, he had a breathing method to regulate his body, and naturally he was not afraid of the stuffy air here.

There are only a few furnaces used to calcine iron billets and some of the stoves are fueled by charcoal and coal.

Lin Xi walked to a stove with a relatively large fire and took out the Xuanjing Stone, the reason why Lin Xi wanted to build the weapon by himself was not because of how powerful he was at striking iron, but because of the preciousness of the Xuanjing Stone.

If the news of his Xuanjing Stone is spread, it will cause a few more turmoil. Even if it doesn't spread out, only Lin Xi himself can impress the Xuanjing Stone here.

In the small town, Lin Xi still learned some methods of striking iron, it is difficult to strike iron, and it needs to be adjusted with strength and skills, so that the things that are beaten can be called the best grade.

Lin Xi was very confident in the control of strength, he only needed to use the aura to give the shape of the Xuanjing Stone, and then constantly polish and forge it himself.

"When!" Lin Xi hammered down, and struck out thirty-six hammers, the speed was so fast, it was completed in an instant, and there was only one sound of hitting the iron.

"Dangdang Dang!" Lin Xi hammered down several times in a row, shaking the entire blacksmith shop, and the firelight was swaying inside like a rain curtain.

Our men at the blacksmith tried several times to look through the window to see what was going on, but they were stopped by the man in charge here.

After hundreds of hammers in a row, the Xuanjing Stone only changed slightly. But Lin Xi was already sweating profusely, you must know that the strength of Lin Xi's every blow was so great, if he didn't use his aura to strengthen the surroundings, it would be enough for the blacksmith shop to be directly dispersed within five hammers.

Lin Xi believes that the longer it is beaten, the better the quality of this Xuanjing stone.

Finally, the general outline of the axe had come out, but Lin Xi didn't know that several hours had passed outside.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside, followed by a quarrel, and then a person pushed open the door of the blacksmith shop and stared at Lin Xi angrily.
