Qin Shuo looked at the three thousand in his hand, and then he looked at the iron sword lying on the forging table, broken into two pieces.
He frowned: "Finally here? The hole dug by Qing Yi was originally hidden here? But... how did he do it? There were no problems with the raw materials and tools. How did he break my iron sword?
"
Someone at the scene said "woohoo",
Then someone laughed.
"The sword was broken? How dare you tell me that this is a top quality sword?"
"No, it can't be true. If the sword is broken, it proves that his mold making and adjustment are not up to standard. Can such low-level mistakes be made? Don't say he is a fine blacksmith, even if he is replaced by an ordinary person.
It’s impossible for a good person to be this level of inferiority.”
"I just said that his certification was bought with money. You still don't believe it. Now, you can believe it. He is not a fine blacksmith at all. I doubt he is even at the level of an apprentice."
They said that Qin Shuo was not even as good as an apprentice. That was an exaggeration, but breaking his own iron sword with a hammer was really a low-level mistake.
Qing Yi looked forward and looked at the rostrum.
Sitting on the rostrum was the referee of the competition. As one of the three leaders of the Green Snake Hall, Shi Qi was naturally also present.
Shiqi's expression was still very indifferent. She seemed to be an objective and calm referee. She pulled the other palace leader beside her and said in a low voice: "Breaking the sword with a hammer, such low-level mistakes can be made. We can
Let’s disqualify him from the competition.”
Another palace leader shook his head and said: "There is no such rule. There is still half the competition time and he can come again."
After that, he sighed again: "But with only half the time, he probably won't have time to forge it again. It's a pity that such a young blacksmith can make such a stupid mistake."
Shi Qi actually never thought that the Broken Sword could eliminate Qin Shuo.
The reason why she asked this question was to observe the reaction of the head of the palace.
She wanted to see if the trap she had set was seen by the other two heads of the palace.
Obviously, the head of the palace whom she asked did not see it.
The third head of the palace also had no objection to what his companion said.
Shi Qi felt relieved and looked back at Qing Yi from a distance.
"Okay, even if Qin Laishou is tricked to death, no one will find out how he died."
Qing Yi felt relieved, and his facial features that were a little worried at first became distorted quickly.
Done!
Qin Laishou cannot pass the certification!
He must die!
Because this is a dead end.
No. 8 sighed and shook his head.
Although he did not believe that Qin Shuo could certify the best, he did not expect that Qin Shuo would be so bad.
Not only did he decide to kill Qin Shuo, he also had doubts about the previous rumors: "Is there really something in it that he can pass the quality certification?"
Qin Shuo's eyes were still on the broken sword, and he couldn't find the problem after thinking about it.
He picked up the iron sword and wanted to see if there was something wrong with the spiritual power channel. Indeed, if the channel setting was too large, it would affect the overall hardness of the iron sword.
But as soon as he picked up the iron sword, the surface of the blacksmith's bench covered by the sword blade was exposed.
A few spikes protruded from the flat surface of the blacksmith's bench, but the spikes quickly disappeared.
Qin Shuo suddenly realized: "So the problem lies here!"
There is no problem with the raw materials, and there is no problem with the tools and blacksmith's bench.
"It's this trick again. Adding up the things that are not a problem becomes a problem!"
This trick is often used for poisoning. Two non-toxic drugs will become highly toxic when mixed together.
But Qin Shuo didn't react: "It turns out that this trick can also be used on gold and iron."
When the material of the iron sword came into contact with the material of the forging table, they reacted and turned into several spikes as hard as diamond!
Qin Shuo struck down with a hammer, and the sword body pressed on the spikes, and the force was exerted on the sword body. It was not tempered and had insufficient hardness, so it broke at that time.
The scariest thing about Tsing Yi's design is that those spikes are volatile and will disappear soon after they are formed.
Now that the spikes are gone, Qin Shuo has no evidence, and he can only suffer the loss.
Qin Shuo turned his head and glared at Qing Yi: "Sure enough, a dog can't change its habit of eating gold. It will be a disaster until death!"
Qing Yi raised the corners of his mouth and shrugged: "You know I did it, but what about that? Do you have any evidence?"
There was a round of booing. The Nalan family's minions were experts in things like causing trouble.
"If it doesn't work, it won't work. Why are you glaring at him? Could it be that he is so handsome that he broke your broken sword?"
"The sword is broken, why are you still standing there? Why don't you abstain from voting and still stay on the stage to embarrass yourself?"
"Uh-huh~ Someone's ten thousand taels of silver have gone down the drain. This is ten thousand taels of silver. How nice it is for me. It's a full ten thousand taels of silver. I could walk around in a brothel until my feet break."
"Upstairs, are you sure you broke your foot?"
"Doesn't he think he can start over again? Doesn't he know how to watch the time? Most of the hourglass has fallen. Even if he is a god, he can't forge a new sword."
"How will you know if you don't try? An iron sword won't work, but a spoon will work. After a while, he will use a spoon to dig out the iron pillars, and maybe he can dig out a three-bedroom apartment."
"Hahahaha, it's so cheap, I like it so much."
Everyone's eyes fell on Qin Shuo, some sighed, some gloated,
Friends who were close to Qin Shuo clenched their fists unwillingly at this moment.
They didn't know that Qin Shuo would be killed by No. 8 if he failed the certification.
They were just unwilling to accept that the signature blacksmith in their shop missed the opportunity because of a mistake.
Li Xiao shouted: "Xiao Qin, it's okay, we'll come back next time."
Brother Bin also said: "Yes, Xiao Qin, isn't it just ten thousand taels? You have plenty of money."
Qin Shuo scratched his forehead. Of course he was unwilling to be cheated.
But the words of the crowd also reminded him that he really didn't have much time left.
The blacksmiths around him had already begun scraping and hammering, and one or two of them were even starting to assemble accessories.
Qin Shuo wants to build an iron sword again. He can indeed control his movements and rhythm.
But dissolving, pouring and shaping all take time, and he cannot shorten this time.
He quickly came to the conclusion that it was simply impossible to build another iron sword in the remaining time.
Qin Shuo breathed out: "This old dog Qingyi's design is really amazing, this is a dead end."
But he pressed his chest and comforted himself by saying: "Facts have proved that there is nothing wrong with saving everything. If I hadn't concealed something, I would definitely have fallen into this poisonous pit."
