Chapter 89: The Ultimate Heavy Hammer
Chapter 89: The Ultimate Heavy Hammer
The best sharp blade!
In the darkness of the night, Feng Gang felt that his steps were lighter, and the corners of his mouth were also raised as his body moved up and down.
The top-grade Autumn Water Sword is worth more than a thousand taels of silver, which is enough for an ordinary family of five to have food and drink for a lifetime. Its value is so high because it is extremely rare.
At least, he has been in the underworld for twenty years and has not been able to get one.
Call ~
In the darkness of the night, he moved up and down, and after going around several streets, he landed in a hidden courtyard somewhere.
"Incense Master!"
Feng Gang bowed slightly.
"What's the matter?"
There was a candle in the room, and a sturdy man was sitting there drinking. He had a rather rough look, and a long scar on his face went through his mouth and nose, twisting like a centipede:
"Han Chuijun showed up?"
"No, no, Master Xiang, I found an excellent blacksmith!"
Feng Gang was very nervous. From a distance, he felt like a rabbit being stared at by a tiger, and he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
"blacksmith?"
The big man in the room slowly raised his head with a cold look in his eyes.
Feng Gang's heart trembled, and he said hurriedly:
"The blacksmith is only seventeen years old. He has been studying martial arts at the forging shop for a year. He has already mastered the hammering technique and can even forge top-grade sharp blades on his own..."
call!
There seemed to be a sudden strong wind, and Feng Gang felt a huge force grabbing his neck. He staggered a few steps and fell into the house.
"Everything I say is true!"
Feng Gang's heart trembled, and his eyes swept across the group of naked women on the beds in the room, whose lives were unknown, and he thought to himself that something was not right.
This is clearly a sign that something is wrong with the worship method...
"In one year, you can forge a top-grade blade all by yourself and perfect the hammer technique?"
Lei Chaozong wiped the grease from the corners of his mouth and seemed quite interested:
"Cao Yan has such a good talent under his command but he concealed it. Ha, he who doesn't 'worship the gods' is not trustworthy after all!"
"What the incense master said is absolutely right! Cao Yan is reluctant to worship the gods, which clearly shows that he is not sincere in his devotion..."
boom!
Feng Gang felt a weight on his shoulders and fell to his knees.
"Cao Yan has at least four or five top-grade sharp blades, and even a famous weapon. If I kill him, will you give it to me?"
Zhelong Mansion is rich in hundreds of minerals and is an important place in Hengshan Road. But even in Zhelong Mansion, top-quality sharp blades are extremely rare. Once one appears, it will be quickly bought by someone.
If it weren't for those top-grade sharp blades and possible famous weapons, how could Cao Yan have the room to bargain with him?
"Uh……"
Lei Chaozong groaned as he spoke, and quickly pressed the acupuncture points all over his body. His face turned red, and after a while, two streams of black blood came out of his nostrils:
"The Shenbi Meridian is too damaged. Once it is slightly injured, it will backfire..."
"Master, you, you are injured? Is it Han Chuijun?!"
Feng Gang's heart trembled.
"That sinister and vicious old beast ambushed me, hit me with a hammer, and then disappeared. If I catch him, I will eat him alive!"
Lei Chaozong's face twitched and his eyes became cold.
Feng Gang didn't even dare to raise his head.
"The hammer technique is perfect, so the boy should have good talent?"
Lei Chaozong remembered something:
"For decades, that old man Han Chuijun has been looking for this kind of person. What's his name and where is he?"
"he is……"
Feng Gang almost blurted out the answer, but when he remembered that he hadn't yet swung the Autumn Water Sword, he immediately changed the subject:
"I only know his name is Li Yuan. No, I don't know where he lives..."
boom!
Feng Gang fell into the yard, coughing up blood and in great panic.
"Useless! Bring him back to me tomorrow to worship the gods!"
Pressing his stuffy chest, Lei Chaozong said coldly: "Also, gather the people and go back to tell Cao Yan to be ready to take action at any time!"
"what……"
Feng Gang wanted to slap himself to death, regretting it so much that his intestines turned green: "...Yes!"
……
Outside the city, in a dilapidated temple outside Fangjing Village, before dawn.
"It's cloudy again. I guess this is the only rain before winter comes?"
Next to the campfire, Han Chuijun sat cross-legged, turning the sizzling bear paws on the wooden rack and sprinkling some spices on them from time to time.
"Bear paws still have to be plump before winter. Well, my cooking skills have improved again."
After smelling it, Han Chuijun was quite satisfied.
"Mr. Han, what about Lu Yunqing?"
Sha Pingying carried the cut bear meat and placed it on the wooden rack.
"The fish has taken the bait, so the bait is gone. Is there any need to ask?"
Han Chuijun took off the bear paw, cut it into small pieces with a flying knife, and savored it carefully, enjoying it very much:
"I thought there were some big fish, but unexpectedly they were just a few bastards from the Evil God Cult..."
"It's the evil cult again!"
Sha Pingying's face was filled with disgust: "Why can't we kill all these evil demons?"
Han Chuijun tasted the bear paw slowly and said, "As long as the worship method is not eliminated, the evil god cult's demons will never be killed. Do you think the worship method can be eliminated?"
"I'm afraid this is not possible..."
Sha Pingying smiled bitterly.
The method of worshipping gods was once known as a way to achieve immortality. For hundreds and thousands of years, countless people have followed it. How could it be extinct?
"Since there are no big fish, it's time to close the net. The mountain gate will be open next year. If I don't go back, I'm afraid the valley master will get angry again."
Han Chuijun shook his head helplessly.
Sha Pingying hurriedly replied, "My disciples have already sent out the signal arrows. The city guards who searched the mountain should be back tomorrow at the latest."
"After not showing off their power for so long, they have forgotten whose territory Zhelong Mansion belongs to!"
Han Chuijun turned the wooden frame with a calm expression:
"Yun Xiu is good in every way, but she is too soft-hearted. Don't learn from her!"
"Disciple, please remember this!"
Sha Pingying agreed solemnly, but thinking about the list sent from the city, he couldn't help but hesitate: "Dealing with so many people at once, it will be difficult to explain to the court, right?"
"If you don't want to do it, don't do it. If you want to do it, do it quickly and clean it up from top to bottom to avoid a recurrence in the future."
Han Chuijun wiped his hands:
"As for the imperial court, if they hadn't been stirring up trouble in secret, how could there be so much chaos in Zhelong Mansion?"
"Disciple understands."
Sha Pingying bowed and responded, and then he seemed to have thought of something:
"By the way, Senior Sister Yunxiu mentioned in the letter she handed over earlier that she didn't find the person you asked her to find, but..."
"I can't find anyone?!"
Han Chuijun was immediately a little unhappy, but he didn't get angry. He just frowned and said, "But what?"
"However, Senior Sister found an excellent hammer-master. It is said that in less than a year, he has mastered the White Ape Cloak Hammer to perfection..."
"Has your hammering skills been perfected in one year? It's a promising prospect, very good... huh?"
Han Chuijun muttered to himself, then suddenly turned around. There seemed to be a ghostly light flashing under his long eyebrows, which almost made Sha Pingying's heart stop:
"Perfect?!"
……
……
The sky was gloomy and it was quite chilly in the early morning.
Inside the forging room, however, there was a rolling heat wave.
"Make the fire bigger, put thirteen pieces of firewood! Make the wind stronger, even stronger, and pour the blood of the spirit sheep into the cold pond..."
The six apprentices pulled the bellows with all their might, sweating profusely. Zhang Ben's face was red, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his veins were bulging:
"Quenching!"
Li Yuan, who had been waiting for a long time, raised his hand, pulled out the huge hammer weighing more than 200 pounds from the scorching heat wave, and submerged it in the icy water.
"Chichi~~"
The red-hot sledgehammer fell into the icy water, and the freezing cold water instantly boiled. Thick smoke and steam rose several meters high, blowing several helpers back.
"The ultimate heavy hammer!"
Almost all the blacksmiths came over. The ice water boiled under the steam and the fire was actually burning under the water.
"Is it done?!"
The blacksmiths were all very excited. Top-quality sharp blades were too rare. There were only a few older blacksmiths here who had seen Zhang Ben forge one many years ago.
"Of course!"
Zhang Ben fell into a chair, gasping for breath, but full of confidence.
"It's done!"
The one who was more certain than him was, of course, Li Yuan. In front of his eyes, the blue and green colors were intertwined, very obviously.
[Top-grade pure steel hexagonal hammer (level 3)]
[Forged in fierce fire, made entirely of pure steel, a long-handled weapon made with the painstaking efforts of a master craftsman, made with the blood of six-tempered spirit beasts, slightly magical...]
[Control conditions: Perfect hammer skills, great tiger strength]
[Control Effect: As powerful as thunder and lightning, hammer talent, attack and break armor, brave and fearless, heavy as a hundred pounds]
Five palm control effects!
Li Yuan's palms were itchy and he was very excited.
This heavy hammer is better than any weapon he has ever seen, and he seems to meet the requirements to wield it.
His own strength, coupled with the tremendous force of the Jade Bronze Hammer, is comparable to that of a tiger!
The only bad thing is that the hammer is not his at all.
"Alright, everyone go away and do whatever you need to do!"
Zhang Ben paused for a while before standing up, picking up the heavy hammer and continuing to forge it.
The quenching is successful, but the subsequent tempering and polishing cannot be sloppy, and the quality will also affect the price. This may be the last top-quality weapon he will create in his life, so he cannot be careless.
"Master, this hammer..."
Li Yuan couldn't take his eyes away.
"Why do you need so many hammers? I gave you the two heavy weapons before, aren't they enough?"
Zhang Ben didn't even turn his head:
"Besides, all the iron materials for this hammer were sent by the Yuan family. If there is no second batch, I can't give it to you even if I want to!"
"Top-grade long-handled heavy hammer!"
Li Yuan was very reluctant to leave. He watched for a long time before returning to the forging table under Zhang Ben's scolding and continuing to forge the Autumn Water Sword.
This top-grade sword only needs to be tempered four times.
"Although I can't buy it, I think it shouldn't be a problem to borrow it for a few days..."
Taking a deep breath to suppress the distracting thoughts in his mind, Li Yuan devoted himself to forging. When he finished work in the evening, he quenched and tempered the metal twice. In one or two days at most, he would be able to forge it.
"I spent one ounce of red gold, and I still have one ounce left..."
Li Yuan was thinking in his mind.
His purpose in making this Autumn Water Sword was to get some red gold from some mysterious person. This thing is harder to get than anything else.
"Let's all leave work early today!"
Seeing that the weather was bad and there seemed to be a muffled thunder, Zhang Ben spoke.
Without even raising his head, he was doing the final polishing process.
Li Yuan cleaned up, took out the wine and cooked meat that he had prepared long ago, and after getting the unsuspecting old Zhang drunk, he turned around and went back to the forging room.
“What a great thing!”
The forging shop accepted the order, and if the weapons were damaged or lost, they would have to pay for them. Li Yuan didn't want to cheat Old Zhang, but...
"Is it okay to use it for a while?"
Reaching out to grasp the long-handled octagonal hammer, Li Yuan felt that all the pores in his body were dilated. The influence of his hammer talent was still penetrating, and he felt that he was gradually coming to like the feeling of swinging the hammer.
Click!
There was a lightning snake streaking across the night sky.
In the forging room, Li Yuan gently stroked the hammer handle, his eyes dim:
"Winter is coming soon. This rain may be the last one..."
