Li Xinfan held his forehead with one hand and said feebly: "Master Lu, please stop talking..."
Master Lu asked inexplicably: "What?"
Li Xinfan sighed, turned around and said, "Where's Chen Yifan, why didn't you come?"
A man stepped forward and said loudly: "Back to the general, General Chen is holding a sharp gun and ordered that unless the elders of the family come over, he will never step out of the yard."
Ouyang Ming and others were startled at first, and then burst into laughter. They never expected that Chen Yifan had such a willful side.
The corner of Li Xinfan's mouth twitched and he said: "Nonsense!" However, if he were to get along in a different place, he would probably make a similar choice if his cultivation was insufficient.
"Master Lu, Master Ou has outstanding achievements in blacksmithing. If you discuss it with him more, it should be of great help to your research." Li Xinfan calmed down and said solemnly: "You must not do it because of He is young and underestimated!”
Master Lu looked at Ouyang Ming seriously for a few times, frowned, and said, "Okay, old craftsman, what skills does your apprentice have, and what type of equipment forging is he good at?"
The old craftsman coughed lightly and said calmly: "My disciple has some talent and is good at forging any equipment."
"Huh?" Master Lu's eyes brightened slightly, and he finally became a little interested. Although he didn't meet the old craftsman many times, they both knew each other very well and knew that he was by no means a talkative person.
"Ouyang Ming, if you are so highly regarded by the old craftsman, you must be something special." Master Lu nodded, leaning on his old man and saying, "What is the highest grade of equipment you forge?"
"Magical weapon." Ouyang Ming said honestly.
"Oh, Fa... what, what kind of weapon?" Master Lu didn't care at first, but after saying one word, his expression suddenly changed.
The old craftsman laughed and said: "Master Lu, my disciple has done some research on magic weapons, and I forged it by luck."
Master Lu's mouth slowly opened wide and became round. He stared at the old craftsman, as if his head was already filled with mush.
His eyes slowly turned and looked at Li Xinfan and others one by one.
If he was still doubting that he was hallucinating at the beginning, then from the expressions of everyone, he was already sure that he had heard correctly.
Magic weapon, what they are talking about is really a magic weapon...
"Impossible!" Master Lu murmured: "Except for the royal family, who else can forge a magical weapon?" His eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted: "Where is the magical weapon? Let me see!"
Ouyang Ming's heart moved slightly. It turned out that he was not the only one who had mastered the realm of seeing mountains as mountains and water as water. Look at this royal family leader, he has already forged a magic weapon. Moreover, judging from Master Lu's performance, it seems that this generation of royal family is not the only one with this ability.
Li Xinfan coughed heavily and said: "Master Lu, I can guarantee that Master Ouyang Ming has indeed forged the magical weapon. This magical weapon is now in the hands of General Chen Yifan, but he is unwilling to leave the yard."
Master Lu scratched his head and head anxiously, looking like he wanted to run over to appreciate it immediately.
Li Xinfan said quickly: "Master Lu, the magic weapon cannot escape without legs. You can go and see it at any time. However, if Master Ouyang Ming leaves, you will have no one to discuss it with."
Master Lu was startled, then he smiled awkwardly and said, "I am happy to see you hunting. Please forgive me."
The old craftsman waved his hands repeatedly. They understood Master Lu's mood at the moment very well. If it were him, he would have disappeared long ago.
"Master Lu, you are the number one forging master in our Changlong County." The old craftsman said solemnly: "If you encounter any problems, you can tell us. Although we can't help, a fool may think a lot, and maybe we can't say anything. Woolen cloth!"
Ouyang Ming nodded and said, "Yes, I can do it too!"
The old carpenter's expression changed, he glared at him and said, "You're talking nonsense, shut up!"
Ouyang Ming immediately shut his mouth tightly. He could attack the Jidao ancestor without hesitation, but he did not dare to talk to the old craftsman.
However, Master Lu's face suddenly turned red. At this moment, he understood why everyone looked at him so strangely when he mentioned asking Ou Yangming to take action.
Let a blacksmith who can forge magic weapons come and help him...
His face was so burning that he wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl in.
After a while, with the comfort of the old craftsman, Master Lu calmed down and said: "Everyone, I have been studying for the past ten years how to improve the quality of equipment on a large scale." He paused, He said: "The most basic equipment in the army still needs to be made by ordinary blacksmiths, but they can only make it at the second level of common products. Hey, if you want to go further, it will be extremely difficult."
Ouyang Ming frowned slightly and said, "Master Lu, can you only reach the second level?"
Master Lu nodded and said: "Being able to reach the second level of ordinary level is already the result of our accumulation over many years. In fact, we can only reach the first level of ordinary level at the beginning."
Ouyang Ming looked at the old craftsman in surprise. In his memory, he had built equipment under the guidance of the old craftsman during the days when there were no arms.
However, at that time, he could only tinker, but he remembered that even an ordinary blacksmith in the military camp seemed to be able to create top-quality equipment.
The old craftsman sighed softly and said: "If you don't take into account the cost, it will naturally not be that low. But if you want to do large-scale forging, you must limit the cost and completion time. Being able to reach the second level of general grade has already become the benchmark for countless blacksmiths in the past. It is the highest level that we have carefully researched and thought about.”
Ouyang Ming's eyes lit up and he nodded slightly.
Indeed, there are many means that are unavailable due to cost and time constraints. So if an ordinary blacksmith can create a second-level general product, it is indeed a very good achievement.
The old craftsman turned around and said solemnly: "Master Lu, this is a difficult problem, and many generations of research have failed to make a breakthrough. Could it be that you are suddenly interested in this because you have made a new discovery?"
When he mentioned this, Master Lu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "Yes, if you want to improve the quality of equipment while reducing costs and shortening time, ordinary methods will definitely not work." He said proudly: "But , I studied the set of runes ten years ago, and I came up with something good by chance. "
Ouyang Ming's heart moved slightly and he looked towards Ni Yunhong.
The eldest son of the Ni family smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "Ten years ago, he came to my house to learn a little bit about the suit forging method, and he really made some achievements." After a pause, he said again: "I took him to Lin Hai. The arm guards in the military camp were made by him.”
Ouyang Ming laughed dumbly and said, "I thought it was your masterpiece."
Ni Yunhong shook his head gently and said: "I don't have enough experience to reach this level."
Master Lu gave the order, and someone immediately brought a pair of arm guards. He said with a little pride: "This is what I spent ten years researching. Let's take a look."
Ouyang Ming and other blacksmiths reached out and took it. The grade of these arm guards was not high. In fact, they were only good grade one. However, after listening to Master Lu's introduction, no one dared to look down upon him in the slightest.
Because this was not made by a powerful arms forger, but by ordinary blacksmiths. What is even more surprising is that when building these equipment, neither the cost nor the time has increased much.
Ouyang Ming watched carefully, although the equipment he forged before had already outshone these arm guards. However, after knowing the origin of the arm guard, he no longer felt proud at all.
The weapon flashed in the palm of his hand, and the properties of the arm guard were undoubtedly revealed.
Item: Outstanding Armguards
Level: First level of good quality mortal weapon
Attributes: Hardness +6, Durability 5
There is nothing noteworthy about this ordinary attribute, but if its origin is known, it is enough to arouse the curiosity of any blacksmith.
Even if Ouyang Ming wanted to forge such equipment, it would still take some effort and effort. If it is said that an ordinary blacksmith can use iron ingots to complete the forging of this level of equipment in a short period of time, it is really shocking.
There was some regret in his heart. When he fought with Ni Yunhong that night, why didn't he pick up an arm guard and study it carefully...
After a while, Ouyang Ming's eyes lit up, he reached out and gently brushed the inside of the arm guard, and said, "Treads!"
Inside this arm guard, there are some strange lines. These lines are unique and cannot be compared with ordinary decorations.
Master Lu nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, this is the inspiration I found from the set of runes, and I designed a large number of patterns. But it is a pity that only this set of patterns has produced effects in ten years."
The old craftsman pondered for a moment and said, "Are these lines branded on?"
"Yes, we created a mold and stamped it on when the arm guard was formed. It only added one more process, but it has qualitatively improved the quality of the arm guard." Master Lu said proudly: "Now the mold is not enough Once we have enough molds, the arm guards we will create in the future will all be of good quality.”
Ouyang Ming and others exchanged looks. In addition to being shocked, they also felt deep admiration in their hearts.
Although there is one more process, the effect is vastly different.
If we look at individual pieces of equipment, a mere high-quality arm guard cannot be compared with a magic weapon. However, Ouyang Ming knew that the impact of this arm guard, and the effect it could have in the future, were far more powerful than a few magic weapons.
Looking at the beaming Master Lu, Ouyang Ming secretly admired him.
Such a person is a true master, an outstanding person that even the ancestors of Jida must treat with kindness.
After the introduction, Master Lu said excitedly: "Old Craftsman, Master Ouyang, you should also stay. We will study hard and strive to improve the runes so that more equipment can be upgraded."
