"I would like to inform my uncle, I have been making a living by blacksmithing in the past, so I still know a little bit about how to hammer and cast iron."
As soon as these words came out, the blacksmiths who were watching couldn't help but look at each other in surprise. Even the red-faced old man and Gao Han showed surprise.
It is really a rare thing for a cultivator to have such a background.
You must know that blacksmith, as a low-level profession in the secular world, relies on strength to make a living, and few people can read and digit. Sun Huo can not only read and understand, but also understand and practice basic skills to such a high level. How could he not
It’s surprising.
At this time, what Sun Huo was thinking about was the black hammer placed in the black hall underground, and he felt like he had caught something.
Because if the black hammer is only used as a weapon, there is no need to shape it exactly like the casting hammer. It can be made into other more lethal shapes.
Without waiting for the old man to say anything, Sun Huo turned around and took a few strides to the anvil closest to him.
In this position, there is a burly man with his upper body bare and glistening with sweat. His muscles are bulging under his dark skin. Even Sun Huo's physique is smaller than him.
.
Before that, he was holding a sledgehammer with both hands and continuously hammering a large piece of pig iron. At this moment, he stopped because he heard the old man's order and was watching the situation with the sledgehammer.
Seeing Sun Huo coming to him, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly, and probably understood what this young man wanted to do.
After Sun Huo took a few glances at the quality of the iron on the anvil, he said what he expected.
"Brother, you are removing impurities from this piece of pig iron. Just let me do it now."
Hearing this, the big man couldn't help but flash a look of surprise in his eyes.
He raised his head and looked around, and saw that everyone was paying attention to this side. He immediately and silently removed his hands from the hammer handle, stepped back several steps, and gave up his position.<
/p>
The red-faced old man didn't say anything to stop Sun Huo's move. He just stroked the goatee under his chin with one hand and stood there watching calmly.
Sun Huo stretched out his right hand, gently held the end of the hammer handle, and lifted it slightly.
Seeing Sun Huo being so arrogant and clumsily testing the weight of the casting hammer with only one hand, the faces of the blacksmiths around him couldn't help showing expressions of disappointment.
Even Gao Han was no exception, his eyes were full of disdain. As a supervisor, he had been watching the blacksmiths work for a while, and he had never seen anyone handling a hammer like this.
Apart from the small hammers, the big hammers used by these people are really not something that ordinary people can hold with one hand. Even ordinary immortal cultivators in the Qi training stage cannot do it. If they can advance to the foundation building stage, there will be something like this
Possibly.
The next moment, Sun Huo bent down, but stretched his hand to about one-third of the distance from the hammer head, and then took hold of the handle of the hammer and lifted it up.
Not only that, Sun Huo also took a few steps to the side, grabbed the big man's other spare sledgehammer in the same way, and then turned back and stood in front of the anvil.
"Hey!"
Sun Huo shouted, raised two sledgehammers high, and then smashed them down one after another.
The clanging sound of the hammer sounded continuously, as if two blacksmiths were taking turns to hammer out the hammer. Not only that, Sun Huo's speed with one hand was three times faster than that of the big man swinging the hammer with both hands.
Such a scene has turned the disappointment of all the blacksmiths present into consternation, and everyone's eyes cannot be described as surprised.
The heavy sledgehammer was as light as a pestle in Sun Huo's hand, and it hit the air again and again, hitting everyone's hearts rhythmically.
Bang, bang. The last two strikes were completed. Sun Huo flipped his wrist so that the hammer head was downward, took two steps back, bent down and gently lowered it to the ground, making no sound.
Two hundred hammers, a full two hundred hammers continued to hammer, and the piece of pig iron that the big man forged before could be clearly seen with the naked eye that it had become shorter.
A big man can achieve such a result even if he asks himself, but it will take more time and energy, which is far less than what Sun Huo can do so easily.
At this time, Sun Huo still looked calm and didn't take a breath. Just because he stayed by the fire, he had a slight sweat on his forehead and his cheeks were a little red. Looking at the iron block he had hammered, he felt a little more in his heart.
Earn your share.
"Okay!"
I don’t know who shouted out first. After witnessing this unforgettable scene, all the blacksmiths woke up from a dream and spontaneously cheered for Sun Huo.
"What a one-of-a-kind freak." The old man curled up his lips, turned around and walked outside with his hands behind his back. Based on the hand Sun Huo just showed, there is indeed no need to stay here and learn how to forge iron tools. Seeing the old man turning around and leaving without saying a word, Sun Huo was stunned for a moment, unsure of what he should do.
Gao Han bowed and saluted the old man's back, then turned around quickly, rushed to Sun Huo's side, patted his arm and shouted: "Junior Brother Sun, what are you doing here in a daze?
There’s no need to stay here anymore, why don’t you hurry up and follow us.”
"Oh." Sun Huo came back to his senses after being slapped by Gao Han, "Thank you, Senior Brother Gao, for reminding me. Junior Brother, I will take the first step." Sun Huo cupped his hands and hurriedly ran out.
"You, you, and the rest of you, if you don't hurry up and take action, are you going to burn the iron to pieces after being lazy for so long? Be careful that you won't get paid this month." After calling Sun Huo away, Gao Han urged with a straight face.
The blacksmiths got into action.
After rushing out of the cave, Sun Huo saw the old man walking slowly with his hands behind his back. He didn't go far, so he quickly followed behind and waited for the next instructions.
Just when he was thinking about whether to test his strength next, he saw the old man stopped, turned around and asked gently: "Sun Huo, where do you think we should go next?"

Hearing that the old man was not giving direct orders, but instead asking him where to go in the future, Sun Huo's heart skipped a beat, but he did not dare to go overboard. He could only reply respectfully, "I don't know, disciple, but I will listen to my uncle's instructions."
Arrangement."
Hearing that Sun Huo didn't tell the truth, the old man smiled indifferently and said, "It's not good to have such complicated thoughts at such a young age. I'm not afraid of hurting my soul and shortening my life."
Sun Huo smiled sarcastically after hearing this, and couldn't say anything in response. He secretly murmured: "Seniors like you are following behind, all of you are moody. If I had been simpler and more straightforward, I don't know how I would have been treated.
Just played around with it."
Seeing Sun Huo's respectful and silent expression, the red-faced old man felt quite satisfied. He turned around and flicked his sleeves, "Let's go to your Midas."
"Dianjin Hall?" Sun Huo now knew that his residence was not an unknown place, but had such a serious name.
But what he didn't understand was that, judging from the name, this place was obviously an important place, how could it have been left idle for a long time without any precautions, and now a new person like him was actually allowed to live in it.
After a while, the old man and Sun Huo arrived in this black hall as expected, and went straight to the light shield in the center.
After a period of silence, the old man pointed to the light shield and asked Sun Huo, "Do you know what this is?"
Sun Huo shook his head and said that he didn't know. In fact, he didn't know whether the old man was asking about the light mask or the flame inside the light mask.
But no matter which one it is, he has never seen it before. Especially this high-temperature and violent flame. It is obvious that there is nothing that can burn, but it can never go out.
"This is the fire of the earth's lungs, which is excavated and guided from the deepest depths of the ground. Compared with the real fire released by our immortal cultivators using magic, it is hotter and more durable, and can be used without consuming your own mana. By using formations to restrain and
Controlling it can make this earth fire pure and stable, making it perfect for refining elixirs or refining weapons."
I don’t know what the old man was thinking, but he actually started explaining Earth Fire at this time. For such a rare opportunity, Sun Huo listened carefully and didn’t want to miss a word. Who knows if there will be such a good thing in the future.
Listen to a master craftsman explain your doubts.
"The earth fire you see now is not controlled and tamed by a magic circle, so it is so violent. It will only melt ordinary materials directly and cannot be used to refine weapons and elixirs."
The red-faced old man glanced at Sun Huo, who was listening carefully, and added a few more sentences.
Sun Huo was not surprised by the final conclusion. Anyone who is an immortal cultivator can see it.
What he was curious about was that since the old man specifically pointed it out, could it be that he was asked to learn how to set up the formation and transform this earth fire?
He immediately rejected the idea because Sun Huo couldn't find a reason why he could do this.
At this moment, the old man suddenly changed the subject, "Sun Huo, have you ever touched this Earth Flame Golden Hammer?"
Facing this sudden and stern question, Sun Huo felt as if his heart skipped a beat and he quickly fell to the ground.
"My disciple is guilty. I didn't know that this thing cannot be touched without permission. I saw that there was no prohibitive protection near the treasure hammer before, and my hands were itchy and I tried to lift it. Please forgive me, uncle, I will never dare to do it again."
"That's right. You've just started, and you dare to mess with the sect's treasures. You're very brave. But before I punish you, tell me how you did with this golden hammer."
Hearing the old man's question, Sun Huo couldn't help but hesitate. He really couldn't figure out whether he was making things difficult or deliberately testing with this attitude of being happy and angry.
If it's a test, the result of being able to lift it will definitely be good. But if it's a challenge, it won't make any difference whether you can lift it or not.
Thinking of this, Sun Huo gritted his teeth, raised his head and said loudly to the old man. "Sir, I can lift this gold-sharing hammer. Because it is too heavy, I can only swing it a few times."
