Then, a group of more than a dozen people walked out of a door. The leader was an old man with a goatee, medium build and plain appearance. Someone next to him said: "The president has grown up."
It turned out that he was the president. Next to the president was Fang Qihe. The two of them sat in the center behind a row of tables. After that, the remaining dozen people sat on both sides. They should all be senior figures. After sitting down,
, everyone became quiet, and the president stood up and said: "Okay, in order to save time, I won't say more. Next, we will draw lots to allocate the forging rooms."
There was a table in front, and there was a jar on the table. In the jar were paper balls with numbers written on them. Each of us went to the jar and took out a piece of paper. I took it out and saw that it was number fourteen.
!
Next, Fang Qihe started the roll call, and after calling everyone's names, he said: "Okay, everyone can start. The entry period for beginners is three days, the intermediate period is half a month, and the advanced period begins after entering the forging
It should not be more than one month after the start of the test. Anyone who exceeds the time limit will be deemed to have failed the rating and will come back three years later, so everyone must have a sense of time!"
Everyone made it clear and started pushing the cart out of the back door of the hall. As soon as they went out, they came to a courtyard. There were rows of forging rooms. The house number was written on it. Number 10 was written on it. Number 4 was very close to the front. I was very excited.
Found it easily.
When I arrived at the door and was about to go in, I found Liu Jingru coming over and said: "What a coincidence, I am number 54, we are opposite!"
Gu Dao said coldly: "What's wrong with the door opposite? Do you still want to visit?"
Senior Sister Liu smiled and did not feel embarrassed and continued: "I am here to challenge the ninth-level mechanic. Junior Brother Zhang Xiao, wish me good luck!"
I didn't want to say a word to her, so I went directly into the forging room No. 14. After entering, I opened the box and took out the materials step by step. I laid them out. I took inventory. There were quite a few of them.
It’s also all available, except that the hammer is a bit awkward, but that’s how the rating assessment is, and you’re not allowed to bring anything in. Otherwise, I can bring my own hammer in, and it will be much easier than the one here.
But this does not affect my performance at all. It is not difficult to build a level seven doll. What I took out was a gourd, and there was a soul in the gourd. I poured the soul out and took a look. The quality was still very good. As long as
Inject him into the doll and it will awaken quickly.
Since the soul is male, I can only make male dolls. Although I have never made one, it does not mean that I can't. Soon, I started. I lit the fire and warmed the stove. According to my memory, one part
A hammering of parts.
With the cooperation of Gu Dao, it only took me five days to create all the parts. By the tenth day, the hair was all planted. Then, it took me one day to assemble the doll.
After getting up and enchanting the doll, the doll immediately came to life.
The first thing this doll did when it came back to life was to stare at me for a while and say, "Where am I?"
I opened the door and came out, taking the puppet back to the hall. At this time, the center of the hall was empty. Apart from the elders and president, there were only the surrounding audience.
As soon as I came out, someone shouted: "Look, there's a high-level doll coming out!"
I brought the puppet to the president and Fang Qihe and said, "Please check whether my work is level seven."
Fang Qihe looked at me and said, "Zhang Xiao, tell the truth, how long have you been learning the art of puppet refining?"
I shook my head and said, "This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the rating, but I can tell you, it won't take long!"
The president did not get up, but the elders on both sides began to come over to inspect the puppet. They asked the puppet to do their designated actions, and then gathered around the puppet to observe the details.
Finally, everyone sat down and started rating. Some gave me level seven, some gave me level eight, and in the end, the majority were level seven. Both the president and Fang Qihe gave me level seven, which was obvious.
, the rating is very fair and should not be manipulated, after all, so many people are watching.
After the rating was over, I said: "I can go back!"
Fang Qihe nodded and said: "All students who have passed the advanced rating must stay. After the rating is completed, the president will personally award you the golden hammer and the level recognition medal. You can go back and wait for a few days.
Coming out soon."
When I left the hall, Jing Shui and Li Ke were already waiting for me outside. After seeing me, Jing Shui gave me a hug and said, "You succeeded!"
I nodded and spoke from my heart. There was nothing very exciting about such a success. I could eat and drink here, and read many books about blacksmithing. I spent three days in the library, and was struck by a book.
I was fascinated by Huang's book. This book is called, Controlling Fire, and it mainly explains the use of fire.
In this book, fire is clearly divided into yin fire and yang fire. I have this concept, and I now have the two attributes of yin fire and yang fire, but the following argument is refreshing to me.
Then it was introduced that when yin and yang fire collide together, a strange creature will be generated, which can give the blacksmith a new meaning!
It is recorded in it that in ancient times there was a man named Hou Wu who fused Yin Fire and Yang Fire to create that strange creature. He used this fire spirit to create a long bow. This long bow was created.
After that, no one else can pull me away, only he can pull me away!
The book was not very thick, so I borrowed it and returned to our yard, saying to Li Ke: "Have you seen this book? I think this kind of creature is very interesting!"
Li Ke shook his head and said: "In the forging world, this is just a legend. Everyone knows that there is this legend, but basically no one can do it. Yin fire and Yang fire cannot melt together, just like oil and water.
, no matter how you stir it, in the end the water will be at the bottom and the oil will be at the top."
I was unwilling to go on and said: "But it says there is a nose and eyes. It says that Yang fire and Yin fire can be fused. After fusion, the fire will have spirituality and will produce living things!"
Li Ke sighed and said, "It's a pity that no one has seen it."
Jing Shui took the book and read it carefully. She read it for a full hour and then said after reading the whole book: "I have seen this bow before!"
Li Ke and I were both stunned and shouted at the same time: "What did you say?"
Jing Shui sighed and said: "Not only have I seen it, but I have also pulled it!"
