Chapter 239: Master Smelter (2)
......
At the same time, the flames in the bronze melting pot were extinguished. The furnace of Pen, Fun, and Pavilion www.biquge.info opened, and a viscous and hot metal solution gushed out with crimson flames.
"Congratulations to Master Cui!" Zheng Zhihua stepped forward to congratulate: "This furnace of red fire copper looks to be in excellent condition, and the purity is only more than 90%. ”
Cui Chengyi frowned, poked out his sword qi, and examined it carefully.
"The purity of this red fire copper is still a little short of 90%, if you hadn't come in just now to disturb you, I'm afraid it would have been done this time. Cui Chengyi's tone was not good, and he showed no mercy at all.
Zheng Zhihua didn't think it was a pestle at all, and said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, I didn't know that Master Cui was smelting sword materials at such a critical juncture." This is indeed my fault, and I ask Master Cui to forgive me. ”
Ou Chuyang thought secretly: This Cui Chengyi is really dragged to the sky, Zheng Zhihua is the big shopkeeper, he is just the supervisor in charge of smelting, logically speaking, it should be one level lower, but his attitude seems to be completely reversed. However, it is not very strange that managerial and technical talents are often like this.
Cui Chengyi nodded casually, accepted the apology, and then instructed his apprentices to get busy.
Zheng Zhihua took the opportunity to introduce: "Master Cui, this is Master Ou Chuyang Ou, who has recently joined our Tiangong Pavilion. ”
"Hmm. Cui Chengyi glanced at Ou Chuyang lightly, and didn't say anything more, his expression was extremely arrogant.
Although Ou Chuyang was unhappy in his heart, he was still patient, and greeted Cui Cheng again, and then asked humbly: "Master Cui's smelting technique has opened my eyes, I don't know if I can give me some advice." ”
Cui Chengyi said: "Using sword qi to stimulate fire is a trick that only smelting masters need to master, and you are still too far away." ”
"Master Cui, Ou Chuyang, he once defeated the smelting master Qiu Shaohui. Hong Kaishan said on the side.
"I know that the battle was won. Cui Chengyi said proudly: "Do you think that defeating the master smelter in the purity of the two sword materials, moire steel and black steel, means that you are a master smelter?"
"This ...... That was not what I meant. Hong Kaishan sneered and said, "Of course I know that reaching the standard of a master smelter is a complete set of sword materials required to be able to smelt a famous weapon. But since Master Ou was able to raise the purity of moire steel and black steel to a level that surpassed that of a master smelter, maybe ......"
"Hmph!" Cui Chengyi snorted coldly, "surpassing Qiu Shaohui in the second-level sword materials of moire steel and black steel, it can only show that he has his own uniqueness in the smelting of these two sword materials, that's all." ”
Cui Cheng paused and looked at Ou Chuyang, "Qiu Shaohui doesn't have the talent of the Sword Gate, and it is already a miracle that he can reach the master of smelting. The fact that a smelter does not have a threshold requirement for a sword gate talent does not mean that a smelting master does not need a sword gate talent. Smelter, smelting master, the difference between one word and the world of difference. Do you think that if you are better than Qiu Shaohui in smelting moire steel, you can ignore all the smelting masters in the world?"
Ou Chuyang was secretly frightened.
It seems that what Master Duan said before that the smelter does not need the sword gate, it is only for the smelter level. If you want to reach the realm of a smelting master, without the aid of sword qi, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult.
Cui Chengyi is not wrong, although the difference between the smelter and the smelter is only one word, but in fact there is an insurmountable gap.
In modern society, the word "teacher" often represents the title of a certain profession. For example: doctors, technicians, architects, engineers, pharmacists, etc. But those who can be worthy of the word "master" are all leaders in their respective fields, and they are powerful people who stand at the top of the pyramid.
Judging from Cui Chengyi's tone, Qiu Shaohui is only afraid that he is at the lowest level of the smelting master, and there should be a very big gap compared with Cui Chengyi.
Hong Kaishan continued: "Master Cui's words are serious, we don't have any disrespect for the smelting master, we just think that Master Ou is extremely talented and skilled, and he should be promoted to the smelting master soon." ”
"Let's wait until he can smelt the third-level building materials. Cui Chengyi said with a look full of superiority: "Do you think that smelting third-level sword materials is the same as second-level sword materials, so easy and casual?"
"This ...... We haven't tried smelting a third-level sword yet. Li Zhiqi took the opportunity to ask for advice. "I don't know what's so special about smelting third-level sword materials? ”
"Well, since everyone is here today, I'll say a few more words. Cui Chengyi knew that if he didn't show some real effort at this time, it would be difficult to convince the public, "Smelting a third-level sword material is very different from a second-level sword material. The most important thing in smelting secondary building materials is the temperature that can be generated by the secret recipe fuel, as long as the temperature is high enough, it is about the same, and it is not very particular about the separation and purification of sword materials. ”
Ou Chuyang and the other three smelters listened carefully.
"But the third-level sword materials are very different, and the composition of each third-level sword material is different. The method of separating impurities and purifying them is also completely different. I'll give you an example, for example, more than half of the meteorite impurities in the specific gravity of the star meteorite steel ore cannot be separated without a special formula. ”
"Another example: bloodshot silver is easy to smelt, but it is difficult to preserve the blood-like essence, and the real gold needs to be used as an impurity and eliminated from the pure gold, which is extremely difficult. Therefore, the smelting of almost every third-level sword material needs a special formula corresponding to it, otherwise, the purity will not meet the requirements at all. ”
"Furthermore, stimulating the sword qi to stimulate the fire is also a technique that an excellent smelting master needs to master. However, only when the cultivation reaches the Sword Sect or above can the sword qi be stimulated empty-handed. Do you understand?" Cui Chengyi finished speaking, and glanced at Ou Chuyang deeply.
"I see. Ou Chuyang and the other three nodded again and again.
Cui Chengyi's words gave Ou Chuyang a preliminary and specific understanding of the smelting master, and he felt like a new world had unfolded in front of him. If you want to become a master, it is really not a simple matter, you still need to reach the realm of the Sword Sect, and you are indeed a little far behind......
"Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years. Ou Chuyang bowed respectfully and saluted: "In the future, I will ask Master Cui to give more advice and support." ”
"I can't talk about teaching, and I don't dare to carry it. Master Ou is so young, he has such attainments, and he must also be a famous teacher, why bother to ask for advice from a bad old man like me?" As soon as Cui Cheng finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Ou Chuyang and the others in place, silent.
Hong Kaishan waited for Cui Chengyi to go away before he explained in a low voice: "Master Cui and Qiu Shaohui are brothers, and the last time you defeated Qiu Shaohui, he also felt disgraced. ”
