Chapter 43: The Stolen Blacksmith's Shop
"The treasures of the smith's smithy smith's shop? ”
The weapons of this world are all hammered and tempered by craftsmen.
Even the weapons in the county treasury and the weapons in the armory are no exception, but most of the weapons in the county treasury are seized from the thieves and are considered second-hand items.
The weapons of the blacksmith shop are often made by the blacksmith himself, which can be regarded as the original first-hand product.
With the exception of Six Doors, this sect is slightly loosely organized, with no affiliated blacksmith shops.
Other large families, or large sects, will have their own blacksmith shops. For example, the Thunderbolt Hall of the Tang Gate is good at making hidden weapons, the fine iron meditation room of the Shaolin Temple, the Tai Chi Zhenyi of the Yang Gate, the Golden Pavilion of the Bagua Villa, and so on.
Because of this, the blacksmith master who is proficient in crafting ingenuity is often the guest of honor in the Jianghu sect.
However, having said that, many blacksmith masters are also ordinary people, and they also have seven emotions and six desires, and most blacksmith masters would rather live in a bustling city than go to those sects in the deep mountains and old forests to experience the harsh environment.
And in the city, any master blacksmith will inevitably deal with the six doors.
Therefore, although there is no blacksmith shop attached to the Six Doors, there are still many master blacksmiths who will craft weapons for the Six Doors.
"Outside the blacksmith shop, the hanging swords and swords are all ordinary mortal iron, worth no more than ten taels of silver. ”
"In addition to creating specific weapons for those noble warriors, I will also carefully polish some fine products in my spare time. ”
"Therefore, when I see the extremely rare material of the Purple Fire Meteorite, I will see the joy of Hunting, with this Purple Fire Meteorite Refined Iron, maybe, I can also create a sword above the quality of silver!"
"And these high-quality weapons I have built are more than a thousand taels of silver. ”
"If it is a weapon above gold, then the price will be ten thousand taels of silver. ”
Blacksmith Chen said as he took Ye Cangqiong and walked towards the inner house in the courtyard of the blacksmith shop.
Blacksmith Chen regained that proud look: "In the past ten years, a total of ten high-quality weapons have been left in my arsenal, and the best of these high-quality weapons, ordinary Jianghu martial artists, have basically never seen them. ”
Ye Cangqiong followed Blacksmith Chen through the corridor in the courtyard of the blacksmith shop, walked for about five minutes, and came to a basement, this basement, there is only one room, and the door of this room is a three-meter-high iron door!
The arsenal of the smith's blacksmith shop is here.
Blacksmith Chen said triumphantly: "This big iron gate weighing a thousand catties has no strength of a thousand catties, so I can't even pull it open! Even if those Jianghu warriors know that I put my treasure here, they may not be able to open this big iron gate and take my treasure!"
Blacksmith Chen looked at the tightly locked, tightly locked iron door, and his smile became more and more obvious.
Blacksmith Chen's two arms, which were as thick as buffalo legs, were fastened to the pull rings of the big iron door.
Blacksmith Chen puffed out his cheeks, took a deep breath, and then slowly opened the large iron door weighing more than 1,000 catties with a force of his arms.
"Squeak. There was a heavy hoarse sound, and the closed iron door slowly pushed towards both sides.
However, the moment the big iron door was opened and the situation inside the big iron gate was clearly seen, Blacksmith Chen was stunned for a moment, and Blacksmith Chen's smile froze on his face.
Blacksmith Chen's arrogant eyebrows drooped, and the corners of Blacksmith Chen's mouth drooped, as if he was about to cry.
Inside the big iron gate, the secret room of the smith's blacksmith shop was empty, and in the arsenal, the walls where swords and swords were originally hung were blank.
The floor of the treasure vault, with its messy footprints, was a mess.
Apparently someone stole the treasures that Blacksmith Chen had accumulated for ten years.
"Who stole my baby?"
Seeing this scene, Blacksmith Chen suddenly sat down on the ground limply.
Blacksmith Chen's face was like ashes, and his voice was hoarse.
"How can this be? All these treasures of mine have been stolen by thieves!"
"This is the result of my ten, 3,650 days, hard work!"
"Woo, I don't want to live anymore. ”
Blacksmith Chen almost collapsed, and the black iron strong man who was nearly two meters tall was like a little woman at this moment, and he cried with a whimper.
"Master Chen, no amount of sadness is useless. Ye Cangqiong patted Blacksmith Chen's shoulder, and said, "I am a catcher from Qingsong County, and I will pursue this case." I will definitely arrest this Jiangyang thief and recover your losses as much as possible. ”
Hearing Ye Cangqiong's words, Blacksmith Chen was slightly stunned, and then grabbed Ye Cangqiong's hands as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
Blacksmith Chen looked at Ye Cangqiong with blank eyes, and said excitedly: "Ye Zhukuai, I misunderstood you before, I formally apologize to you now, you are a good person, you must be the master of the small people, and catch this hateful Jiangyang thief as soon as possible!"
Ye Cangqiong said righteously: "This is where my mission lies, and I will naturally do my best." ”
The reason why Ye Cangqiong seems so righteous and awe-inspiring, of course, on the one hand, is the misfortune of Blacksmith Chen, which is sympathetic, the theft of the blacksmith shop is where the duty lies, and the more important reason is that Ye Cangqiong received the task of the system.
{C-Class Mission: Stolen Blacksmith.} }
{Rarity: Bronze 3 stars.} }
{Mission Details: The largest blacksmith shop in Qingsong County, the Divine Blacksmith Shop, was stolen and ten fine weapons were lost.} }
{Goal of mission achievement: 1. Capture the Jiangyang thief and return the stolen weapons from the Shenjiang Blacksmith Shop to Blacksmith Chen.} Second, capture the Jiangyang thief. }
{Mission duration: within three months.} }
{Reward: Complete Objective 1 to earn 500 points and receive Blacksmith Chen's gratitude.} Complete Objective 2 to earn 500 points. }
It was the first time that Ye Cangqiong encountered this type of either-or mission.
After capturing the Jiang Yang thief in this mission, there are two choices, one option is to return the high-quality weapon that Blacksmith Chen said to Blacksmith Chen, so that Ye Cangqiong will gain Blacksmith Chen's favorability.
The other option is to take those high-quality weapons for himself, but in this way, Ye Cangqiong will not get the favor of Blacksmith Chen.
For a while, Ye Cangqiong couldn't judge which of the two choices was superior and which was inferior.
Perhaps, the short-term benefits of privately seeking high-quality weapons seem to be more considerable, while the long-term benefits of returning high-quality weapons are more cost-effective.
However, then again, the premise of this two-choice choice is to catch that Jiangyang thief!
Who is this Jiangyang thief?
Is it the mysterious middle-aged fat man who looks happy, or the ghost of the smith's blacksmith shop, Liu Hei with sharp beak and monkey cheeks?
No matter how much it is, the time for this task is very abundant, and the battle of the sword master of the Ten Cities Mingxue is imminent.
Now, the most important thing to do is to repair the Blackwater Sword or find a more powerful sword.
