"Master Qingshi," Xiao Liu said, "Do you think this sword of mine can still be repaired?" As he said that, he took out a sword that had been bent and had several big gaps, and held it with both hands and handed it to Qingshi. .
"Well, not bad!" Qingshi took the sword, weighed it, and said, "Tell me about the situation of this sword."
"Okay!" Xiao Liu said, "Xuan level low-grade, fire attribute, Xuan iron is the main material, mixed with one minute and seventy millimeters of blue iron gold essence, one minute and three millimeters of blazing fire gold, and is made through thousands of forgings. This is made by thousands of forgings. It was smashed by a heavy weapon."
"Yes! The bend of the sword is indeed caused by being hit by a heavy weapon. It should be regarded as a wide-mouthed and thick-backed ax with two attributes of metal and earth." Qingshi nodded and said, "The gap on the sword should have nothing to do with the big axe, but with another Isn’t it true that the earth attribute heavy sword struck each other and was shattered?"
"Sure enough, you have good eyesight!" Xiao Liu saw that what Qingshi said was accurate, and immediately said excitedly, "Can you repair it?"
"Okay," Qingshi said, "I want to add six taels of Xuanming gold and iron to your sword. After repair, it will be Xuan-level middle-grade or above. Its hardness will be increased by 50%, toughness will be increased by 30%, sharpness will be increased by 2 points, and fire will be increased by 20%. Add one point to the attribute. Do you like it?"
"Okay, okay!" Xiaoliu was excited at first, and then said sadly, "However, this Xuanming Gold and Iron is a treasure, priceless, and I don't even have one or two. I'd better not add more."
"Oh, no." Qingshi said, "I still have quite a few, so I can add them for you for free."
"You don't charge me for my wages, but you still have to spend money?" Xiao Liu said in surprise, "This...how can I feel comfortable with this? I still have to pay for the materials for Xuan Ming Jin Ying Tie." Come on! How many spiritual stones are needed for six liang?"
"No need," Qingshi said, "It's just a few taels, not priceless. Come and pick up the sword in three days!"
If you really want to collect money, these six taels of Xuan Ming Jin Ying Tie are worth ten such Xuan level low-grade swords. Xiao Liu will definitely not be able to pay so much money.
"Thank you, Master Qingshi!"
Xiaoliu thanked him repeatedly and went excitedly.
The tall and thick man took out a nine-ring machete with three inches of the tip broken and four rings missing, and said: "Master Qingshi, please see, can my machete be repaired?"
"Throw it away," Qingshi did not take the knife, only glanced at it and said lightly, "It has no repair value, buy a new one."
The big man turned around angrily, and a man behind him laughed at him with a smile. He also took out a giant sword and said, "I took this sword from the hands of a great demon from the Xianqu Army. It should be at the Xuan level." ! For me, this sword is too heavy. How about you help me remove 40% of the weight and add three kilograms of Xuanming Gold and Iron?"
"No!" Qingshi said, "It can't be done."
"This..." The man was stunned and asked, "Why?"
"This sword was specially made for monsters and is not suitable for human use. It is stained with the blood of Baiyun City warriors, and its use is ominous." Qingshi said, "Besides, you want to lose 40% of the weight, but you also ask to join Three kilograms of Xuanming gold, Yingte, etc., such a ratio is simply unreasonable, and I will not accept such a request."
"Oh!" The man suddenly realized and said, "I don't care about the auspicious ones. It's not suitable for human use, so just modify it to suit it! Three kilograms of Xuanming Jinying Iron is too much, so add two kilograms! One kilogram also."
"That's unreasonable!" Qingshi said coldly, "Don't answer! Next one."
The man had no choice but to turn around and leave.
The person behind him knew that most of his weapons were not suitable for the Bluestone Dharma Eyes and would not help him repair them. He rolled his eyes and said: "Since the Bluestone Hero also forges new weapons, please forge a Xuan-level high-grade weapon for me. Take the sword!"
"What are your requirements for the sword?" Qingshi said, "What properties? What shape? What is the weight and size? What materials are used? Are all the main and auxiliary materials available?"
"This..." the man was stunned and said, "As long as it is a high-grade Xuan level, I only have some hematite here. You can help me make up for the other materials."
"Get out!" Qingshi said without politeness.
"Hahaha..." One person laughed loudly, "Young Master Qingshi, I haven't seen you for a few days. I didn't expect you to open a weapons shop here."
Following the laughter, a big man strode over. While laughing, he slapped the guy on the head who asked for a bluestone forged Xuan-grade high-grade sword, and cursed: "Shu Lao Si, you bastard, why don't you Are you going to rob me? Didn’t you hear me tell you to get out?"
"General Duowei!" The man quickly said with a smile on his face, "Yes, yes, I'll get out of here." After saying that, he ran out the door.
"So it's you," Qingshi said with a smile, "What? Got promoted?"
"It's all thanks to you!" Duowei said with a smile, "You got in touch with Baiyun City through me. As a result, you became the great hero of our Baiyun City, and I followed suit and made contributions, so I was promoted. Got it!"
"Oh, congratulations then," Qingshi said, "How did you know that I opened a weapons shop? My shop has only been open for less than half an hour."
"Haha," Duowei laughed, "I was treated by Amano Shaoxia next door just now. Guess what? He cured all my internal injuries! Speaking of which, I am really a big favor from you! Oh! , it was he who told me that you opened a weapons shop here."
"Then what do you need in terms of weapons?" Qingshi said, "No wages."
"Really?" Duowei sighed, "Oh! Young Hero Xiang An doesn't charge for payment, Young Hero Amano doesn't charge for consultation, and you don't charge wages either. The broadmindedness of you young heroes is really admirable. .”
Qingshi only smiled slightly and said nothing. I thought to myself: If we want to collect money, you can’t afford it.
"By the way, please help me take a look at this." Duowei took out a sword that was broken into two pieces and said, "This sword was handed down from my ancestors and has been broken for hundreds of years. I have found many refiners. The masters want to repair it, but no one dares to take on the job. I wonder if Young Hero Qingshi is sure?"
"Oh, let's take a look!" Qingshi took the sword, played with it with interest, and said, "It's such a good sword, what a pity!"
"Yes," Duowei said, "The name of this sword is 'Zhou Du'. It is a high-grade earth-level treasure weapon with three attributes of wood, fire, and metal. Back then, my ancestor fought against a master of the Shen Yuan realm. At that time, it was broken by the master with a heaven-level sword. My family has always wanted to repair it, but we have never been able to find a suitable weapon refiner!"
"Well!" Qingshi said, "I can repair it, but the materials needed to recast and repair this sword are difficult to find. In addition to wood acanthus crystal, fire silicon and black gold, you also need the original materials when casting this sword. Spring water used for quenching.”
"Surely Hero Qingshi can repair it?" Duowei was overjoyed and said, "I have all these materials! Four generations of my family have already collected all the materials in order to repair this sword!"
As he said that, Duowei took out a lot of things from his storage container. As expected, there were wood acanthus crystals, fire silicon and black gold, as well as three large buckets of ice-cold spring water.
"No problem!" Qingshi inspected these things, nodded with satisfaction and said, "The materials are all available and the quantity is sufficient. Within a month, I promise to repair it completely."
The only kind of bluestone among these things is Xuanjin. Fire silicon is the cultivation material he has always wanted, but he has no chance to get it. Now Duowei has taken out more than twenty kilograms of fire silicon. It only takes at most three days to repair the 'Zhoudu' sword. Four pounds.
"Brother Duowei," Qingshi said while playing with the large piece of fire silicon, "This piece of fire silicon is used to repair the sword. At most, only one-fifth is enough. Can you sell me the remaining part?"
"Why is Young Hero Qingshi so outspoken?" Duowei's eyes widened and he shouted excitedly, "You can just take these materials. If there is less, you can ask me for it. If there is more, you can keep it yourself. There is no need to say anything about selling or buying. What? Why, you help me repair the sword for free, but you also want to give me change? There is no such thing in the world! Are you trying to make the folks in Baiyun City look down on me?"
"Okay!" Qingshi said with a smile, "Brother Duowei, there's no need to get excited, I'll just keep the extra ones. However, you don't need to see me outside, and you don't need to be called Young Hero anymore, right?"
"That's right!" Duowei smiled, "Young Hero Qingshi... no, Brother Qingshi! Hahaha..."
In this way, Qingshi began his career as a weapon refiner in Baiyun City.
The main reason why Qingshi chose to open a weapons shop was to understand the heavenly ways of gold and fire through smelting and forging.
To understand these two great ways of heaven, smelting and forging are definitely the best ways to practice. While practicing yourself, why not make some contributions to Baiyun City at the same time?
There are many guys in Baiyun City who like to take advantage like Shu Laosi, but there are also many guys like Duowei who are bright-hearted and know how to repay kindness. They know that Qingshi is willing to spend a lot of money to purchase rare refined materials. When asking Qingshi to repair or upgrade his weapons, they often give Qingshi the rare refined materials they have for free.
Of course, there are also some people who sell their rare refined materials to Qingshi, and Qingshi doesn't mind spending more spiritual stones to buy them.
In this way, Qingshi got many good things, such as the fire silicon given to him by Duowei. The bluestone absorbs the spiritual power contained in the fire silicon into the body, using it to practice fire-attribute martial arts, such as Fiery Fist, Burning Sky Fist, etc., with excellent results. But the purpose of practicing these martial arts is not the boxing itself, but the understanding of the heavenly way of fire.
Time has passed quickly for more than a year. The Shenmai Valley Formation hosted by Xiang An is coming to an end. Chen Tianye has gradually fewer patients, but more and more people are looking for bluestone to forge or upgrade weapons. However, Qingshi only accepts business with weapons that are of a higher level, more difficult to forge, repair or upgrade, and that are helpful to his own cultivation. Otherwise, he would be too busy at all.
Even so, Qingshi rarely had time to rest. He was immersed in the art of refining weapons and his understanding of the ways of gold and fire. He often went several days without eating, drinking or sleeping, and was only busy in the workshop.
Since Qingshi received the inheritance of the Desert Divine Dragon, he quickly understood the Heavenly Way of Earth. Now, after more than a year of dedicated practice, he finally has a clear understanding of the Heavenly Way of Gold.
On this day, Qingshi was pondering a piece of gold-tungsten ore, trying to find a better way to extract the gold-tungsten elements in the ore. He played with this piece of ore and thought for a long time. Suddenly he felt a flash of inspiration in his heart, and then he used the two kinds of true energy of gold and earth in his body to penetrate into the ore.
This time, the gold and earth Qi that Qingshi probed into the ore was different from the previous times. It seemed to have synthesized into a brand new Qi, like a hot fluid that directly melted the gold and tungsten particles scattered in the ore instantly. Then, Qingshi turned the ore upside down, and the molten gold and tungsten dripped out like syrup, and soon only a stone full of holes was left in Qingshi's hands.
Qingshi threw away the stone in his hand and picked up the wooden basin on the ground. He saw that the gold and tungsten dripping out turned into a pile of round, finger-sized beads, each one bright and clean, without any impurities.
Qingshi was first excited that he had obtained extremely pure gold and tungsten, and then he was stunned and suddenly realized that his greater gain was not the high-purity gold and tungsten, nor the method of extracting it, but his enlightenment on the heavenly way of gold.
Yes, at this moment, Qingshi understood the golden way of heaven.
Speaking of which, Qingshi was originally the most familiar with the Heavenly Way of Fire among the five elements, but now he has fully understood the Heavenly Way of wood, earth, and metal. The Heavenly Way of Fire is only slightly stronger than the Heavenly Way of Water. When will he have an epiphany? Waiting for opportunity.
The enlightenment of the Heavenly Way of Wood is the effect of the elixir, and the main reason for the successive enlightenment of the two Heavenly Ways of Earth and Metal is the inheritance of the Desert Divine Dragon. At this point, Qingshi has a better understanding of the greatness of the "Earth Scripture" and the "Golden Scripture", and is even more impressed by the greatness of the Desert Dragon.
