Chapter 1488: Immortal Soldier Workshop
In fact, there was more than one idea for Lu Chen, such as finding some first- and second-level immortal beasts outside the city to catch and sell them was a better way to make a fortune. However, Lu Chen didn't want to expose his strength too early, and secondly, as soon as he arrived in Cloud City, he went out of the city to find trouble with the immortal beasts, and it didn't seem like the stunned young man who had just flown up did it, so he refuted a few ideas.
Coming and going to the workshop to work, not only can you hide people's eyes and ears, but also can use this to cultivate the way of refining, didn't Jing Lao say, as a descendant of the evil way, you must be able to refine the weapon, and in the future, you will have to rely on this business to improve your strength, so finding a job to help the refiner master lay down is undoubtedly his first choice.
It is said that Uncle Lu has been abducted and deceived in his life, stealing chickens and touching dogs, but he has never worked for a serious person, and he has no experience and forced himself to embark on this road of no return under poverty. He didn't think too much about it, but if he let the cultivators of the Immortal Realm know that the generation of killing gods they admired and respected in their hearts was about to turn into a trotting hall of the Instrument Workshop after arriving in the Immortal Realm, it was estimated that a large group of people would be embarrassed and directly blow themselves up.
Not much to say, Lu Chen walked to the door of the shop called "Immortal Soldier Fang", almost more than ten meters long spacious store door gushing full of blazing fire energy, the sound of jingling hammers forging fine gold one after another, endless, inside a burly sweat like rain, from the door you can see the anvils burning red under the high temperature natal fire, and sometimes there will be well-dressed children swimming in the huge storefront, sending piles of fine ore that Lu Chen has never seen before to those craftsmen.
Stayed outside the store for a while, and soon, Lu Chen was discovered by the shopkeeper who had a heart, and a strong sweaty man walked out of his face, with a thick beard on his face, only revealing his eyes, nose, and mouth, and his half-naked upper body was like a red-hot anvil, full of the taste of the real fire of his life. Ordinary people can't stand the smell of mineral lime powder impurities and sweat.
However, Lu Chen is a good player, and he knows that there is a clear difference between people in refining and people in alchemy, they are usually informal, and it is normal for the smelting refiner to sweat a little, so he turned to the man, revealing a modest and polite appearance.
The man appeared and glanced at Lu Chen, and asked with a smile: "Is this little brother ready to buy immortal weapons?" The immortal weapons produced by our Immortal Soldier Workshop are in the entire Cloud City, and there are ...... low-level, middle-level, and even high-level" The man happily introduced the Immortal Soldier Workshop, with a kind expression on his face that held this customer.
Lu Chen bowed and said what he meant: "This brother, in Xiayuhu, has just flown up from the Nether Realm and wants to find a job here. Seeing that the man's almost flattering expression gradually became embarrassed, Lu Chen said again: "I don't have any other requirements, I just hope to be able to find a place to live, cultivate well, and leave when I reach the level of Xuan Xian, and ask my predecessors to fulfill it." Lu Chen saw that this person had the strength of a third-level immortal, and it was not too much to call him a senior.
The man frowned, looked at Lu Chen motionlessly, changed his expression, solemn and cautious, and said: "People like you can meet a few people every year, but our Immortal Soldier Workshop only accepts talents, are you sure you can do this job?"
Lu Chen didn't take a big sip and asked, "Dan doesn't know what conditions are required to work in your shop, and he is also a person who loves refining weapons in the lower and lower realms." ”
The man was moved, although he did not show excessive contempt, but Lu Chen still found that this person's eyes faintly flashed with disdain, and the man said: "The Nether Realm is also different from the Immortal Realm, no matter how powerful the master is, he can't condense his natal true fire, and it is far from meeting the requirements of smelting immortal ore." ”
Immortal ore is different from the ore of the nether realm, the texture is extremely hard, there is no strong immortal power and natal true fire, it is difficult to refine, and as a small worker, no one can let Lu Chen become a craftsman in the store as soon as he comes, generally to help the craftsman to help smelt the ore to extract essence and meal, reduce the burden of the craftsman's refining, and there is also a special classification of impurities, and the smelted slurry is collected in a bottle specially containing materials, which requires considerable experience to be competent.
Obviously, there is a reason for the man's disdain for Lu Chen, not a deliberate ridicule, you must know that no matter how powerful a master is in the Nether, it is impossible to face countless kinds of immortal ores and easily smelt successfully. In the eyes of the man, this is obviously unlikely. He was right, many of the Four Tribulation Scattered Immortals and First-Rank Heavenly Immortals who had ascended from the Nether Realm were like Lu Chen, looking for jobs in various shops, seeking a place to live, and when they were fine, they went to fight in the Little Shengtian Secret Realm, so as to accelerate their strength. But judging from the length of time the man has been in the store, he has seen at least ten people come to Mao Sui to recommend themselves, but no one can pass the test of the shopkeeper and return home.
But Lu Chen is different, the third-level Lieqian Realm has already reached the level of a third-level Heavenly Immortal, and he even has the Black Evil Heart Fire, which is a unique natal true fire, and he has refined the Southern Immortal Fire in Fangjun Tower, and smelting some ore is a piece of cake for him.
"Please give the seniors the next chance, if you can't do it, you will leave on your own. Lu Chen said sincerely.
The man pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask the shopkeeper, you're lucky, the shop is really short of manpower recently, if you can pass the test, maybe you can stay." ”
The man is a good person, after speaking, he brought Lu Chen into the store, and the steaming fire was even more pungent, but Lu Chen didn't even frown, which made the man change his feelings about Lu Chen. In the past, those conceited refiners would subconsciously cover their noses when they came to work, which made the man very disgusted.
"Wait, I'll go to the shopkeeper. After the man finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the back hall.
After a while, the man walked out with a half-bald middle-aged man with yellow hair and few hairs, presumably the shopkeeper, Lu Chen smiled and nodded at the middle-aged man who came towards him.
The middle-aged man walked over, looked at Lu Chen's eyes, and asked in a voice with the unique surname of a refiner's majestic and deep voice, "You just want to work in the store?"
Lu Chen hugged his fists: "Yes, senior." ”
The middle-aged man has a very deep connotation, Lu Chen can't see his cultivation, and it is estimated that he is at least above level five.
"What's your name?" the middle-aged man asked.
"In the Lower Jade Lake. ”
The middle-aged man didn't ask much, seeing that Lu Chen's attitude was modest and humble, and he scored a good score on his image, so he said simply: "There is still a little guy in the store now, help smelt some abandoned failed magic weapons, return to the furnace to collect useful materials, if you can take out the essence of all the magic weapons I gave you in half an hour, you can stay here." But let's talk about it first, the space in the store is limited, I heard that you are looking for a place to live, you can only live in the back of the firewood room, two pieces of low-grade fairy stone a month, do it as you like. ”
The middle-aged man said the conditions, and Lu Chen's heart tightened: It's only two yuan a month.
Si Yan smiled and said: "That's right, the population of the immortal world is too much, and the immortal stones are in short supply, besides, after you have enough strength, you can go to the Little Shengtian Secret Realm to earn immortal stones, and now it's better to settle down in the residence." ”
Lu Chen felt reasonable, so he said, "No problem." ”
"Okay, come here. The middle-aged man, surnamed Haoshuang, likes to go straight, took Lu Chen to an anvil in the center of the store, called a craftsman aside, and shouted to nearly a dozen craftsmen in the store: "Everyone disperse." ”
This group of people had been playing treasure inside all day and all night, and they had long been impatient, and when they heard that someone was coming to work, they were still the kid who had just flown up, and they were very interested, and they stood together one by one and surrounded Lu Chen and the middle-aged man inside to look lively.
The middle-aged man stretched out his big hand, and soon a person dressed as a small guy ran over, carrying a bag of unknown magic weapons in his hand. The middle-aged man waved his hand to remove the fire on the anvil, took the bag and poured it out, at least more than 20 magic weapons made into waste products were scattered on the ground, and some fell on the anvil, and bursts of white smoke and a pungent smell of pig iron were generated by the residual heat on the anvil stove.
The middle-aged man said, "That's it, a total of twenty-one." After speaking, the middle-aged man took out five small bottles from his arms, all of which seemed to be the kind that could effectively preserve the power of the Immortal Yuan, handed them to Lu Chen and said: "Two of these magic weapons used to be low-grade intermediate rank, and there are five types of materials used, namely: Immortal Chrome Stone, which belongs to gold, Snow Condensation Essence, which belongs to water, Pyridium Crystal, which belongs to wood, Demon Burning Rock, which belongs to fire, and Huanggu Stone, which belongs to earth. All you have to do is remove the impurities from the thing, sort the material and put it in a bottle, and it's half an hour. ”
The man who followed the middle-aged man looked at Lu Chen, obviously not hopeful. It's no wonder that if the 21 pieces of waste treasures are all low-grade immortal weapons, it may not be too difficult, but there are two low-grade middle-level artifacts in it, although they are waste treasures, after being processed by the refiner, they are quenched and formed during the refining process, and the essence of the material's extreme density is very difficult, unless the natal true fire is extremely powerful. Generally, only second- and third-level immortals can be qualified for this job.
But fortunately, the middle-aged man did not deliberately embarrass Lu Chen, he told Lu Chen all the materials used in refining the magic weapon, which was a wake-up call, so that Lu Chen's biggest problem was gone, and he actually had the surnames of various materials, and it was easy to judge the special surname of the slurry with his divine thoughts, and then classify it, and extract it little by little and put it in a bottle to be completed.
Lu Chen nodded, and the middle-aged man looked at the sun outside and said, "It's time to start." ”
Lu Chen didn't start immediately, but swept the 21 waste treasures in front of him one by one with the method of knowing the spirit with a fierce eye, this is his habit of refining weapons, first use the ability to recognize the spirit to distinguish how broken each magic weapon is, and then use different degrees of mana to control the smelting of the natal true fire. In this way, you can take out the essence of the magic weapon as much as possible, without wasting a penny, and can effectively arrange the smelting sequence, saving a lot of time.
Although it only takes a minute for Lu Chen to smelt these waste treasures, he doesn't intend to behave too amazingly, but habits are formed and are difficult to change, Lu Chen's move can be regarded as a kind of habit.
The craftsmen and children around him looked at him with great interest, and they had seen many people like this who had come to work, and most of them were full of arrogance, which made them extremely despised. However, today's Lu Chen is obviously humble and makes people feel good, but a little good impression can't replace Lu Chen's position in their hearts. However, a kind reminder is harmless.
"Little (8), work hard, we are optimistic about you. ”
"The important thing is to smelt the two ......pieces as much as possible for the low-grade and mid-level waste treasures, first as much as possible."
"No one can do this just after they have just ascended, and it doesn't matter if you can't do it. ”
“......”
There was no harsh ridicule, and the scene of laughter made Lu Chen smile helplessly with sincerity and gratitude, and it seemed that he was confident.
Only the middle-aged man was expressionless, obviously not having any hope for Lu Chen, but Lu Chen didn't know that the vacant position in the Immortal Soldier Workshop had been vacant for a long time, speaking of which, the last person who could be qualified for this job was a cultivator who looked like a half-hundred-year-old man, and the relationship with the shopkeeper was not bad, but that person was a little unlucky, and Xiao Shengtian did not come out again after a short time, and only after inquiring did he know that the person died in the secret realm of Xiao Shengtian. The middle-aged man has been replacing his younger brother and son with the work of returning the materials.
Whether he can find a suitable candidate, the middle-aged man is not sure, and he also hopes that someone can do it.
"Whew!"
Just as everyone was chatting and discussing, Lu Chen moved, and an amazing fire of dark gold quickly filled the huge storefront, causing an uproar among everyone.
