Chapter 317: Meet the Master
Ji Wenming carefully looked at the igneous rock ladder again, trying to figure out the profound truth contained in it, but he couldn't see it clearly, according to the copper hammer, this kind of igneous rock flying ladder relies on lava heat flow as power, and it needs to be carved out of the rock cliff to create a passage, which is not a small limit, and it is only possible to operate on the lava cliff of the world below the abyss, but the inventor is still admirable.
Ji Wenming couldn't help but sigh and said: "There is actually a caster who can create such a strange thing as the igneous rock ladder, this kind of creativity and the spirit of not being afraid of death are really admirable!"
The copper hammer pulled Ji Wenming down the igneous rock flying ladder, and then let the flying ladder descend and leave, and then said: "The Fire Furnace Fort Casting Enchantment Association has always encouraged innovation, and the master Jin Laisha, who researched the igneous rock flying ladder, was qualified to be able to freely go to the temple to comprehend the scriptures of the creation of the heavens, but unfortunately, this master was unfortunately killed in the experiment of raising the fire rock flying ladder!"
Ji Wenming couldn't help but sigh and said: "Oh, this is really a pity, if such a person is still alive, maybe he can create some miracles!"
The bronze hammer smiled and said: "The good inventor died of his own invention, and he died a well-deserved death! Although he died, he is still the predecessor of our clan who has climbed the Heroic Spirit Monument, such glory, can you experience it? Hey, speaking of which, your master also invented some useful gadgets before becoming a director of the Casting and Enchantment Association, you must know that every progress of our foundry is advancing in the sacrifice of our predecessors!"
Ji Wenming nodded and said: "Indeed, the emergence and improvement of every new thing requires continuous research and progress, and the furnace castle really opened my eyes and gave me a new idea!"
The bronze hammer smiled and said: "That's good, it's better to read ten thousand books than to travel thousands of miles! If you can comprehend these inventions and creations, I will be content! With your talent, sooner or later you will be able to surpass us older generation foundries!"
Ji Wenming didn't expect the copper hammer to be so confident in himself, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "Master, I don't have much confidence in myself! Where is the master? Let's go and go back quickly! By the way, master, the furnace castle is so great, why are you willing to go to a backward place like the ancient city of Cangba to develop?"
The streets above the 70th floor of the Fort were much more empty, and there were almost no idlers of all kinds appearing and gathering, more of them were white-robed pygmy saints and black-armored pygmy forgers, all of whom were immersed in their own research, chanting words as they walked, and seemed to be still conducting their own research and derivation.
The bronze hammer said: "Look at them, you will know why I want to leave here, the place where the academic atmosphere is too strong will gradually lose its vitality, I firmly believe that the invention of the dwarf race comes from blood and violence, but these dwarfs have all gone the wrong way! Your master did not support me to go out to innovate my own path ......as a foundry at that time, but I insisted on going, and I broke up unhappily, but I didn't expect that decades later, I would come back again!
The copper hammer looked at his disabled arm very embarrassed, in the process of exploring the ruins, a finger was accidentally bitten by a poisonous snake, and had to be cut off from the wrist, otherwise his life could not be saved, and now, only the mutilated arm, and the bare wrist, it looks so miserable.
The foundry relies on both hands to verify what he has learned, and the loss of his right hand has completely changed his life, and it is difficult to upgrade to a master, which is the biggest regret of the copper hammer's life.
If it weren't for the pride of accepting a good apprentice and lurking in his heart with a copper hammer, he wouldn't want to return to Fort Furnace to face the disdain and pity of his relatives and brothers.
Copper hammer does not feel that he chose to leave is wrong, after the misery of being displaced outside, he has more understanding of life and life, these feelings may not be able to be cast by hand again into works, but with the apprentice of Tongde, he can completely carefully design, so that the perception becomes the apprentice's new clothes.
Looking at the thick black arm of the copper hammer with a mutilated palm, Ji Wenming also felt sad, and he couldn't help but comfort him: "Master, the pain is only temporary, in the future, when I learn the casting technique, I will definitely help cast a new arm and palm!
Bronze Hammer smiled: "Silly boy, the master has learned the casting technique for so many years, and he never thought that he would be able to pick up this craft, the casting arm is not so simple, and it is useless to have an empty table! Don't be sad, I have long been used to it all these years! Let's go, I will take you to meet your master Uncle Bronze Helmet!"
The two of them climbed two floors along the ascending passage, and came to the seventy-second floor of the Furnace Castle, which was close to the highest point of the city, and from a distance, the crimson lava demon flames covered the earth, and large bubbles continued to gush out, and in the distance, a translucent crystal mountain rose from the ground, reaching into the sky, and Xi Wenming could even use his eyes to see several masked warriors on the mountain peaks who were not afraid of hardships and dangers, and were constantly climbing upward.
The sacred mountain was too steep to follow, so he could only rely on his hands and feet to climb up the countless hubs and copper rings inlaid with magic gold by his predecessors, until he reached the sky.
Ji Wenming didn't expect that there were really people on the holy mountain, so he couldn't help but ask the copper hammer and said, "Master, who are those?"
Every year, many pilgrims climb the holy mountain, seeking the favor of the gods, and trying to ascend to the sky in a vain step, but they forget that only those who work hard are qualified to stand on the top of this world!"
Although the bronze hammer's golden armor and iron coat look eye-catching, it is very heavy, fortunately, there is a fire rock ladder to walk, otherwise the distance of more than seventy layers is enough to exhaust him.
The two of them walked slowly, and finally came to the entrance of a cave, where a banner was erected, on which was painted a huge hammer and a strong fist, representing the two exquisite skills of the mountain girder.
After a few moments, a dwarf opened the side door and asked, "Who is outside?" Don't you know that this is the home of the Master of the Bronze Helmet?"
The bronze hammer looked at this dwarf demon and laughed triumphantly: "Iron rod, have you forgotten your uncle after not seeing you for decades?"
The dwarf man, known as the iron rod, had his red hair curled into two braids, and the beard on his lower jaw was also braided into two braids, which looked neat and tidy, but it was also very funny, he looked at the golden dwarf in front of him with some surprise, and saw a familiar look through the hairy beard, and then recognized the identity of the person, and shouted: "Uncle Bronze Hammer, are you finally willing to come back?"
The iron rod pounced on the brass hammer and embraced it, leading the two into the cavern.
It is said to be a cave, but it is actually a large house carved out of the mountain wall, and the rooms in the upper part of the furnace castle are very large, and this cave is almost the size of seven or eight caves in the lower part, and it is divided into countless rooms.
When the iron rod entered the house, he yelled, "Master, my Uncle Copper Hammer is back!"
Suddenly, dozens of dwarf demons rushed out from various rooms, looking at the three people at the door with different expressions, Ji Wenming's ears were amazing, and he only heard whispers for a while,
"Which brass hammer?"
"Isn't the Hammer back?
"Master, the little junior brother who ran away from home, he is back? Is he trying to compete for the master's position?"
"Who knows, maybe they want to snatch us from entering the temple and participating in the Enlightenment of the Heavenly Creation Sutra!"
The door of the highest room in the cave was suddenly opened, and a golden-bearded gray dwarf came to the door, looked at the three people below in surprise, and his voice thundered: "Copper hammer! You are finally willing to come back! I wipe, where is your hand?"
