The old craftsman held the newly forged saber and was unable to speak for a long time.
He raised his head and looked at Ouyang Ming, intending to make a few belittling remarks to make this boy restrain his arrogance. However, as the words rolled around his lips, he was too stunned to say them out.
With his eyesight, although he could not see the specific attributes of the saber, he could feel that this saber was already at the top level of quality. Using some selected iron ingots without any adulteration, the sword was forged to this point. He has not seen such results for a long time.
In the old craftsman's first forty years, his physical fitness had not completely declined, and his experience was at its peak. Therefore, he once used selected iron ingots of this level to create such a top quality saber.
Of course, the probability of being able to create such a high-quality product is not high, at most it is only 1 in 10. But even so, it was because of him that he obtained the position of chief arms forger of the military camp, and no one has ever been able to surpass him.
However, as he gets older, it is not easy for him to perform at such a peak.
However, looking at the arms in his hands, the old craftsman's eyes turned slightly blurry.
This brat really lived up to my expectations...
Ouyang Ming looked at the old craftsman carefully and said softly: "Old man, what's wrong with you?"
The old craftsman waved his hand, suppressed his emotion, and said: "It's okay, you did a good job. However, there are still some shortcomings in some places." He carefully removed the flaws in Ou Yangming's previous forging. pointed out and explained in detail how to improve.
Ouyang Ming listened carefully and carefully, keeping every word in his heart.
Although there is a magical purple light flashing in his mind, which can transfer attributes to other places. However, this does not mean that he does not need to learn the art of forging.
The old craftsman talked for a long time and sighed: "What you are using are some ordinary selected iron ingots. Being able to create a saber of this level is already the limit. Well, in the future, when the old man collects some good materials, I hope you can Able to surpass the old man as soon as possible.”
Ou Yangming's heart moved and he asked: "Old man, what if we use selected iron ingots to build better weapons?"
The old craftsman shook his head and said: "Don't think wildly. Do you know that too much is too little? If you try to improve the quality forcibly, then the only consequence will be the cracking of the sword." He paused and said: "How big is the weight of the ship? You can eat as much food as you want, so remember not to act recklessly.”
Ouyang Ming nodded repeatedly, he knew it well, no wonder when he was improving his attributes just now, he felt like it was about to burst if he continued to increase it. Fortunately, he stopped midway, otherwise this rare saber would have been turned into pieces.
The old craftsman hesitated for a moment and said: "This saber of yours is indeed a fine product, but its sharpness is a bit too sharp. Be careful when using it, otherwise it will break faster than its own quality."
Ouyang Ming was startled and his eyes flicked to the saber.
The sharpness and hardness of this saber reached the limit of 10 points for a good product, but its durability was only a pitiful 6 points.
At this moment, Ouyang Ming finally understood where his shortcomings were. Compared with the old Jiangtou's methods, he does seem to be much younger. If he didn't have the ability to graft others on, he wouldn't be able to compare with the old Jiangtou.
Bowing deeply to the old craftsman, Ouyang Ming said sincerely: "Old man, thank you for your advice."
The old craftsman chuckled, waved his hand, and said: "Okay, let's forge two sabers in succession. You can also take a rest. Remember, learn more, practice more, and think more."
Ouyang Ming responded solemnly, his eyes lingering on that high-grade fifth-grade saber.
The old craftsman laughed and said, "You little slippery man, you forged this yourself, just keep it."
Ouyang Ming's eyes lit up, he cheered immediately, picked up the saber, casually found a sheath, and disappeared without a trace.
There are naturally strict rules in the military camp. It is not strange to carry a saber, but if it is carried secretly without anyone's permission and is traced, it is a quite serious crime. However, since the old craftsman nodded, Ouyang Ming didn't care anymore.
As an old craftsman, if you equip your apprentice with a weapon, no one can gossip about it.
Ouyang Ming held his knife and strode around the military camp. Perhaps because he finally carried a sharp weapon, his walking became a little lighter.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance of the military camp.
As far as he knew, there was a dense forest thirty miles west of the military camp. There are countless ferocious beasts in the forest, which is a good place for hunting by men in the military camp.
Of course, those who want to enter the dense forest for hunting must be top-notch heroes in the military, but even so, people often disappear and never return. It is said that those soldiers who did not return were killed by wild beasts in the dense forest, and even their bones could not be found.
However, even though the jungle is so dangerous, good men in the army often go together to hunt in it. They even compare their rankings by the number of prey they obtained during competitions.
Ouyang Ming clenched the saber in his hand and looked towards the west with bright eyes.
In his mind, he actually dreamed up a wonderful scene. He walked with his sword, killing all directions, catching countless prey behind him, and winning countless awe-inspiring looks.
The men who stay in the military camp naturally have a competitive spirit to get ahead.
However, under the pressure of reality, knowing that it is absolutely impossible, I can only bury that thought deeply in my heart.
But now, Ouyang Ming has not only begun to practice martial arts, but also has this top-notch saber in his hand to help him. The hidden ambition is like a prairie fire, burning brightly again.
He stomped his feet heavily, quickened his pace, and galloped towards the south side of the camp.
On the west side of the camp is the dangerous dense forest. Once you enter it, you will either return with honors or lose your life.
Although Ouyang Ming is ambitious, he is not an idiot. I know that I am not qualified to enter the dense forest now. As for everything in that fantasy, maybe one day it will become a reality, but it is definitely not now.
If he ventured into the jungle now, he would most likely become a meal for some ferocious beast in the jungle, and eventually turn into a pile of excrement, adding insignificant nutrients to the plants in the jungle.
Therefore, he immediately put away his fantasy and ran towards the south.
To the south of the military camp, there is also a very large camp. However, the guards here were extremely lax. When Ou Yangming sneaked closer, no one noticed him.
The camp was surrounded by railings that looked like wooden stakes. Once you got close, the stench was immediately overwhelming, making you want to hide your nose and leave.
However, Ouyang Ming seemed to have never smelled the smell. He carefully came to the bottom of a railing, lowered his head, and climbed in nimbly with a chirp.
After walking along the railing for a moment, he suddenly entered a house.
In this house, there are countless fat and white carcasses scattered everywhere. They are crowded in the sunken stone trough and devouring them desperately.
pig.
Yes, this is the most numerous livestock in the camp, military-raised livestock pigs.
Compared with the dense forests in the West, these huge pig pens are very safe.
Ouyang Ming looked around and saw no one there. He took a deep breath and took out the saber. When the weapon flashed slightly, the strangest attribute in his mind suddenly entered the saber.
The next moment, the properties of this saber changed wonderfully.
Item: Outstanding Saber (Red)
Level: The fifth level of good quality mortal tools
Attributes: Sharpness +10, Hardness +10, Swallowing +1, Durability 6
On the basis of the original, there is an additional attribute of swallowing +1, and there is also an additional red word in brackets behind its name.
I was slightly startled, what is this red thing
When I killed Zhang Hanyu that day, I didn't seem to have seen similar words.
There was a slight thought in my heart, maybe it was a broken knife that was used at that time, so this word was not displayed.
Shaking his head, Ouyang Ming put aside all his doubts. He came here today to confirm something, not to explore the secret of the saber.
Looking at the fat pigs fighting for food and not caring about other things, Ouyang Ming gritted his teeth, stepped forward suddenly, and slashed at the fattest domestic pig with a knife.
Now the saber in his hand is a top quality sword. With one strike, it will be cut in two, let alone flesh and blood, even ordinary steel.
There is nothing fancy about it, this knife has already cut into the body of the domestic pig.
And at the next moment, something strange happened again.
The pig was huge, even much bigger than Ou Yangming. In terms of weight alone, it probably weighed a full five to six hundred kilograms. For such a huge creature, even if it was slashed, it would not kill it immediately.
However, when the knife struck the pig's body, the pig suddenly trembled violently and fell to the ground unable to struggle. Afterwards, its body rapidly shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and all the flesh, flesh, skin and bones on its body were turned into energy and absorbed by the saber in Ouyang Ming's hand.
But these energies did not stay in the saber, they poured directly into Ouyang Ming's body through the saber.
For a moment, Ouyang Ming's blood boiled and his spirit became extremely excited. Moreover, he vaguely felt that the qi and blood in his body became active again.
In just a moment, a huge domestic pig disappeared without a trace, and even the pig's hair was completely digested.
Ouyang Ming's breathing quickened, his eyes sparkled, and his heart jumped with joy.
Sure enough, so!
ps: Old rules, can they be collected? Any recommendations
