Vol 3 Chapter 3: Foundry Apprentice

Chen Zong practiced swords and did not like to be disturbed. The corner of the training ground was his favorite.
Here, several large trees are planted, and the palm-sized leaves are dense, as if this corner is separated from the entire training ground.
The light of the fine iron sword was shining, and the sword penetrated the air and made a harsh and sharp sound.
Chen Zong first practiced the residual shadow swordsmanship and the willow swordsmanship method and the eagle fencing method ten times each, and then practiced the true sword eight types and twenty times, and then practiced the light sword method first.
The first one has seven sword-swinging movements, which need to coordinate the four steps of the hands and eyes. These seven sword-swinging movements do not have much power in themselves. The main purpose is to mobilize the power of blood and operate in a specific way. Eventually broke out.
This is the practice of human-level martial arts.
Chen Zong wields the sword again and again, practicing the first seven movements of the light sword technique repeatedly, and strives to make each movement perfect and consistent.
"Human-level martial arts is the application of the power of qi and blood. Each kind of human-level martial arts has its own way of operating the power of qi and blood, and eventually different powers and different effects erupt."
"As the first seven movements of the lightsaber I practiced belong to the first guided style of this sword, in order to be familiar with the operation of this kind of blood power, until I am very familiar with it. The need for a guided style can make the power of qi and blood run like this and erupt in an instant, so that the performance of the light beam sword method is the first. "
Cultivation for three consecutive days allowed Chen Zong to fully understand the split lightsaber method at the first place. The only difference was the mastery of the body.
This requires hard work and it is inevitable for anyone.
"A glance of light!"
With a low drink, the seven sword-swinging movements were consecutive, completed in just two breaths, and the power of qi and blood surged, operating in a strange way, and then erupted.
Sword!
A sword is killed, the sword light is dazzling, and it instantly splits into two, stabbing left and right. The two sword lights are both true. Light traces remain in the air, and they disappear after a breath.
"It's still not enough. At least you have to practice till you hold the sword to run the power of blood and blood, and you can show the spectroscopic glance before you start the sword."
Continue to practice, let the body remember the feeling of the power of qi and blood, until the arms are weak and weak.
After returning to the premises, after a short break, Chen Zong began to practice fierce tiger skills.
The three beast blood pills have already been eaten. In the absence of the beast blood pills, the strength of Qi and Blood is very slow.
"I need to find a way to get more blood pills from the beast."
After practicing the fierce tiger, Chen Zong thought about it.
After officially becoming a warrior, the contribution point system of the clan was opened.
Contribution points are very useful. They can be exchanged for martial arts training qualifications, and can be exchanged for weapons and pills.
The contribution point required for a beast blood pill exchange is ten, and the contribution point owned by a person who has just become a warrior to open the contribution point system is generally zero.
According to the truth, Chen Zong will be tempered seven times, breaking the previous records of the Chen family and creating a new record. Such talents deserve to be cultivated by the clan hall, but unfortunately, the Chen family's philosophy is not so.
No matter who it is, no matter how many talents, entering the clan hall is the same.
The idea of ​​the Chen family is that it is a real tiger, and sooner or later it will show the power of the king among the beasts. Otherwise, it can only stand out from the crowd.
To become a king, a tiger must go through combat, and a man must be successful.
Furthermore, Chen Zong tempered his blood seven times without saying anything. The elder Wake only believed that he had tempered six times.
"Whether you want to get more animal blood pills or practice better martial arts, it is inseparable from the contribution point."
"The way to get contribution points is not one. If you have enough strength, you can hunt down monsters and exchange for contribution points with the clan, but for me now, this is obviously a bit premature."
Nowadays, I have just broken through to the fourth level of Qi and Blood Realm, and have just begun to practice human-level martial arts. Regardless of cultivation or strength, I am in a relatively rapid period of improvement and not suitable for going out.
"Then the second method is to find some tasks in the clan."
"Perhaps, I should go to the main district."
There is a task room in the main department, which will list some related tasks. As long as it is a child of the clan, it can be picked up. After completing it, you can get the corresponding reward points.
Chen Zong swept across the task panel on the wall.
"Looking for silver thread roots. Note: Silver thread roots are second-grade herbs and can be exchanged for twenty contribution points."
"Looking for Jin Luohua. Note: Jin Luohua is a third-grade herbal medicine that can be exchanged for forty points."
"Looking for silver clover. Note: Silver clover is a four-grade herb that can be exchanged for eighty points of contribution."
Most of them are the task of finding herbs.
The grade of herbal medicine is divided into nine grades. One grade of herbal medicine refers to the herb with more than ten years and less than 20 years, the second grade refers to the medicine with more than 20 years and less than 30 years, the third grade has more than 30 years and less than 40 years, and so on Jiupin herbal medicine is more than 90 years old and less than 100 years old.
Reaching a hundred years, the medicinal properties of herbs will change qualitatively, which is a treasure medicine.
When looking for herbal medicine, it is often necessary to enter the old forest in the mountains.
The other task is to hunt down certain monsters, get a part of them and bring them back to the clan, so as to obtain contribution points.
Whether looking for herbs or hunting monsters, Chen Zong temporarily ruled out.
Then there are not many tasks left.
Looking at it, Chen Zong finally chose a task.
"The Foundry Apprentice, depending on the performance, can earn 10 to 100 points each month."
"Are you sure you want this task?" The administrator of the task room looked at Chen Zong with amazement.
"What's wrong?" Chen Zong asked.
"In the past, many people received this task, but they were driven away for less than a month, and they couldn't get any contribution." The administrator said, "I suggest you change to another task."
"Any reason?" Chen Zong asked again.
"Oh, the elders of the Foundry, have a bad temper and have high requirements, which is difficult to achieve." The administrator laughed.
"Thank you for telling me, I want to try it." Chen Zong still said, retreating without trying, not his style.
"Follow you." The administrator registered Chen Zong, then took out a black iron plate and handed it to Chen Zong: "This is the apprentice card of the foundry, take it to find the elders in the foundry, and he will arrange for you Specific tasks. "
"Exhausted." Chen Zong took the iron plate and left.
Iron medals are shaped like shields, with the raised "cast" characters engraved on one side and the hammer hammer on the other.
"What's wrong with a bad temper?"
"How high is the requirement?"
Chen Zong whispered as he strode toward the Foundry, which also belonged to the main department, not far from the task room.
The door of the Foundry was black and closed tightly, and Chen Zong rang.
"Who?" The voice came out, and the door was opened, revealing a face that looked very honest, as if in his twenties, with suspicious eyes on Chen Zong's face: "Who are you? What happened? "
"I'm a new apprentice." Chen Zong raised his iron plate in his hand.
"Oh, someone dares to take on this task again." As he said, the man opened all the doors and let Chen Zong enter: "My name is Chen Wuhou. I have been here for six months."
"His name is Chen Qi, and he has been here for three months." Chen Wuhou smiled at another person in the foundry.
Chen Qi was wiping a long knife, and Wen Yan glanced at Chen Zong, expressionless.
"Hello two brothers, my name is Chen Zong." Chen Zong introduced himself.
"I'm not interested in knowing your name, because you will be kicked out soon."
"Oh, don't mind the clan, that's his temper." Chen Wuhou rounded the field, Chen Zong just smiled and didn't care.
"Brother Wuhou, where is Elder Lie?" Chen Zong asked.
"Wait a moment, Elder Lie is casting the sword in the room." Chen Wuhou pointed to the closed black heavy iron door in front and said.
Chen Zong waited in peace. After Chen Wuhou poured a glass of water for Chen Zong, he was like Chen Qi, took the sword and wiped it carefully, while Chen Zong looked at it.
The sword here has both iron and fine iron grades, that is, the treasure iron grades that do not see the fine iron grades.
About half an hour later, the heavy iron door opened, and a heat wave surged, causing the indoor temperature to rise rapidly. Then, a figure that was not tall but very strong strode out.
This man's skin color is bronze, his eyes are like copper bells, his black hair and beard are a little curly, his arms are bare, and he can see that muscles are like steel cast iron cast, which contains terrible power, and immediately brings Chen Zong This kind of oppression that is inexplicable, as if one eye can suppress him, and one finger can smash him.
"Elder Lie, this person is named Chen Zong. This is a new apprentice." Chen Wuhou put down his long sword and said to the people who came out of the casting room with a respectful tone.
"Elder Lie." Chen Zong took out the black iron plate and handed it to Elder Lie ~ EbookFREE.me ~ with a small arm and calf, and another useless one, you still have to get out as soon as possible to avoid angering Lao Tzu. Elder Lie gave the iron plate a glance, and looked at Chen Zong quickly, as if to show Chen Zong through, his tone was very rushing.
"The Elder Lie hasn't given me a task, how can I know that I'm useful and useless." Chen Zong was not afraid.
"Yo, the boy is a little bit courageous, very good. Since you want the task, I will give you the task, do it well and stay, not do it." The elder Lie seemed to be agitated, and his tone was vicious: "Give you ten days In time, if you shoot a piece of iron, you can stay, otherwise, how far you can go, Chen Wuhou, you will teach him four tips on iron. "
"Yes, elder." Chen Wuhou responded respectfully.
"Chen Qi, wipe the sword and send it to the shop." Elder Lie finished and walked away.
"Sure enough, I don't have a good temper," Chen Zong secretly said, and didn't care. He even heard the unpleasant words.
"It is impossible to build a piece of iron in ten days. It takes at least a month to master the four tips for iron making. It ’s better for you, brother, to advise you not to waste time and go to the task room to eliminate the task. "Chen Wuhou advised.
"I still want to try, please Wuhou brothers to teach me." Chen Zongzheng said.
"Since you insist, come with me." Chen Wuhou said, taking Chen Zong into the casting room.
The casting room is very large and the temperature is very high. There are three furnaces placed in three directions, but only the largest one is burning, and two others take turns to pull the bellows into the wood to keep the fire strong.
"Brother Chen Zong, I'll explain to you the four tips for playing iron. After you master it, you can start to build iron blocks." Chen Wuhou took Chen Zong to an extinguished furnace and picked up an iron ore to start the demonstration.
(Is this the protagonist to start the deputy?)
