Lin Yifei didn't know much about the blacksmith world in Arad continent, so he didn't even know how big an impact the word "Xifeng" would have on Master Wang, so he didn't feel any pressure at all when he said it, and he said it very easily
came out.
After saying that, Lin Yifei didn't take it seriously, and directly moved the screen-sized piece of lapis lazuli to the side of the well, took a sword and wiped it on it.
By the time Master Wang came to his senses, Lin Yifei had already polished the first sword. The entire blade was exuding a murderous aura, which is a characteristic that can only be possessed by extremely sharp blades.
"this……"
Master Wang is petrified again. This sword can be used as a treasure. Who would believe it? Who dares to believe that such a sharp sword is made of first-class iron essence and is a standard sword?
Lin Yifei was completely unaware of Master Wang's reaction. He only felt that his understanding of the Sharpening Technique had deepened, so he quickly put the second sword in his hand, pressed it to the surface of the lapis lazuli, and started rubbing it quickly.
.
"It's going to be difficult this time..."
Master Wang finally came to his senses. He kept saying this sentence, shaking his head and going out. He was going to find a buyer to renegotiate the price. The value of this batch of standard combat knives had already increased from the original value.
I don’t know how many times.
…
In this way, Lin Yifei spent the whole day sharpening knives in the backyard of the blacksmith shop. By evening, he had re-sharpened the entire basket of swords with the edge-washing technique, and then casually threw them there, adjusting his breath and recovering.
Ichiban.
Master Wang had not returned yet, so Lin Yifei just informed Kassim and left the blacksmith shop.
When I returned to the Flaming Red Lips Tavern, I met Master Wang. He smelled of alcohol and was even a little unsteady when walking. He had obviously been drinking for a long time.
"Why are you so drunk?" When Master Wang staggered and was about to fall, Lin Yifei quickly approached Master Wang with a three-stage chop and helped him up.
After Master Wang identified the visitor as Lin Yifei, he said: "They didn't believe it, they thought I was lying to them."
"What do you believe or not? Tell me." Lin Yifei asked curiously as he helped Master Wang sit down on the side of the road.
Master Wang explained: "I am renegotiating the price with the buyers of those war knives, but unfortunately they all think this is a fantasy."
Lin Yifei suddenly realized after hearing this. The batch of swords had been in his hands for a day, and the grade had improved a lot. Master Wang naturally wanted to renegotiate the price, but the buyers refused to pay. After all, they must have just
Just ask for an ordinary standard sword.
"Wouldn't it be nice if you showed them? The swords are all there, there's no way this can be faked." Lin Yifei asked with some confusion. He could understand the rationale for renegotiation, but why didn't Master Wang use the facts to speak for him?
I just can't figure it out.
Master Wang shook his head and said, "It's not that simple."
"How to say?" Lin Yifei asked.
"Oh...it's all my fault for being greedy for petty gains." Master Wang sighed and slowly told Lin Yifei the whole story.
It turns out that this whole thing is a conspiracy, a conspiracy against the status of Master Wang's blacksmith shop.
Master Wang is not the only blacksmith shop in Death Town, but because of Master Wang's status as a sixth-level blacksmith, he naturally overpowers the other blacksmith shops. It would be false to say that they are not jealous, so they deliberately look for
He formed an adventuring team and asked them to approach Master Wang and request to build a batch of combat knives. The material used was also clearly stated, first-grade refined iron.
This kind of standard sword made of first-grade fine iron can only be used to chop down the second and third-level monsters in the Forest of Death. However, the target of this adventure team is the fifth-level area. It would be unavoidable to use these swords again.
It's too shabby.
So we can let this adventurous team come back to spread the word about how inferior Master Wang's sword is. Although a discerning person can tell the fraud at a glance, after all, there are very few discerning people, and even fewer will tell it clearly after seeing through it.
.
When a few blacksmiths start fanning the flames in the back, the public opinion will inevitably expand, and Master Wang will naturally be completely blackmailed.
But all this was indeed disturbed by the appearance of Lin Yifei. The adventure team naturally knew that if Master Wang really used first-grade fine iron to forge the kind of sword he said, then this game would not be able to continue.
After all, they were unwilling to directly frame Master Wang. They had to use a batch of damaged weapons as a cover to feel a little more at ease.
Under Master Wang's questioning, a cultivator from the adventure team accidentally let the matter slip. Master Wang, who was thoughtful, quickly deduced the truth of the matter. Just as he was about to question it, he let the team member
The captain inspired all the drinkers in the tavern.
Naturally, everyone did not believe that Master Wang could use first-grade fine iron to forge a fifth-grade weapon. Master Wang became anxious on the spot and shouted for them to follow him to the blacksmith shop. However, everyone agreed that if Master Wang had such
If I had the guts, I would have brought the finished product with me long ago. If I didn't, I would have had some trouble in my heart.
Such questioning unknowingly achieved the goal of the jealous blacksmiths, so they fanned the flames again, and Master Wang became known as a liar.
Under this situation of being strongly condemned by everyone, Master Wang gradually lost his mind. In fact, he went back to the blacksmith shop to get a sword, which was more convincing than anything else, but he did not do it.
In the end, there was no way to vent his anger, so he drank alone there. After getting drunk, he staggered and prepared to go back to the blacksmith shop.
"After all, it's still about the sword. I went to get the sword, and I silenced everyone in an instant." Lin Yifei said and ran back to the blacksmith shop.
…
When Lin Yifei returned to the blacksmith shop, Kasim was talking to a middle-aged uncle there, with a clear sense of respect in his words. Lin Yifei looked at the middle-aged man with confusion, wondering what his background was? What happened to Kasim?
Mu will be so respectful to him.
"It's okay, I just came here to take a look. When your master comes back, just tell him." The middle-aged uncle ended the conversation kindly.
Kasim breathed a sigh of relief, and then said respectfully: "Then walk slowly, Mr. Mayor."
When Lin Yifei saw this, he knew the identity of the middle-aged uncle - the mayor of Death Town. So his mind quickly started to spin. With the mayor, the trouble Master Wang is encountering now should be easily solved.
.
So Lin Yifei immediately stopped the mayor who was about to leave and said, "Mr. Mayor, I know where Master Wang is, but he seems to be in some trouble now."
The mayor was a little angry at being stopped, but after hearing Lin Yifei's explanation, a trace of amusement appeared on the corner of his mouth and said: "Little guy, you said Master Wang is in trouble? With his reputation, what trouble can he cause in Death Town?
"
This is telling the truth. As Master Wang is a sixth-level blacksmith, and he has not been a big name in these years, the charges for various blacksmith services are also very reasonable, and he has naturally accumulated a high reputation. To say that it is
It was really unlikely that he would encounter any trouble, so the mayor didn't believe it was certain.
"It's over there at the Flaming Red Lips. You'll know when you go there." Lin Yifei did not explain, but raised his finger and pointed in the direction of the Flaming Red Lips, in order to really attract the mayor's attention.
With the ability of the mayor, he naturally would not know anything about the background of Lieyan Red Lips, so when he heard that Master Wang was in trouble with Lieyan Red Lips, the trace of amusement disappeared and he frowned.
He frowned and pondered for a while, then said: "Then I have to go over and have a look."
After saying this, the mayor rose directly into the sky and flew towards the Flaming Red Lips Tavern.
"I got it!" Lin Yifei didn't expect that the mayor was also a holy master, and couldn't help but sigh.
However, it was a sigh of relief, and Lin Yifei did not forget about business. He ran to the backyard, picked up a sword, and left in a hurry.
This move immediately made Kasim confused. Could it be that the master was in big trouble? A big trouble that required a knife? Then how could he, an apprentice, ignore it? Thinking about it, he picked up the iron
Hammer chased after him.
When Lin Yifei returned to the Flaming Red Lips, Master Wang was no longer sitting on the roadside. He must have gone back to the tavern. The mayor who arrived first was standing at the door looking inside, but he did not leave.
It means to go in.
Sensing Lin Yifei's arrival, the mayor turned around and said to Lin Yifei: "Little guy, the sword they are talking about is the one you are carrying, right?"
"This is one of them." Lin Yifei nodded when he heard this, and then presented the sword with both hands.
The mayor reached out to take the sword, held it in his hand, looked at it for a moment, and then struck out several times in an instant. While putting the sword away, he couldn't help but praise: "What a great sword!"
"Then..." Lin Yifei looked inside the tavern.
How could the mayor not notice Lin Yifei's little thought? He laughed loudly and said, "Now that the evidence has arrived, the farce should end."
With that said, the mayor turned around and walked into the door of the tavern.
"What are you talking about? It's so lively."
Low voices suddenly sounded from the door of the tavern, and the people making trouble all looked over, wondering who was so arrogant...
A sharp-eyed person immediately recognized the identity of the mayor, and immediately ran over as if he wanted to take credit, and said flatteringly: "Blacksmith Wang is too deceitful. He said that he used first-grade fine iron to hit the fifth-grade.
Zhan Dao, isn't this just treating our intelligence like monkeys? Mayor, you must drive this liar out of Death Town."
