Zuo Xiaoduo nodded sharply again. He had to say that he was a professional after all, and these two looks were much better-looking than he had originally imagined.
"how about this?"
Wu Tiejiang changed seven or eight shapes in a row, took photos of them all, and then collectively projected them on the wall: "Choose any one of these swords that suits you best. Then I will thin it out."
Zuo Xiaoduo was already dazzled by what he saw. Fortunately, he didn't have difficulty choosing. He just closed his eyes and pointed casually: "That's it!"
"good."
Zuo Xiaoduo’s sword is finalized!
Wu Tiejiang asked again: "With your body shape, footwork, and demeanor, you should be a powerful cultivator. You must be making other weapons, right?"
Zuo Xiaoduo's eyes flashed, and he immediately raised his thumb and said: "You old master, I plan to make two sledgehammers. As the saying goes, if you have a hammer in your heart, you can smash everything. However, the additional requirements are a bit too much.
."
Wu Tiejiang smiled arrogantly: "Iron hammer? I am not bragging. I have hit all kinds of iron hammers in my life. They are so strange and strange that it is difficult to count. There are at least thousands of pairs. No one who wants to be a soldier is dissatisfied."
"
With a crash, countless hammers suddenly appeared on the projection wall, with a wide variety of patterns and a dazzling array, without any similarities.
Zuo Changlu was dazzled by what he saw and couldn't help but say in Sichuan dialect: "There are so many hammers..."
I couldn't help but feel a little sad. When my son was scolding him when he was young, he often scolded him: Are you a hammer?
As a result... this guy grew up and actually... got a pair of hammers?
Life, life... Zuo Changlu's heart.
Zuo Xiaoduo looked at all the hammers on the wall, shook his head, and waved his hand: "My ideal hammer shape is different from these. These are too crude."
"..."
Wu Tiejiang suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Lessons from the past, but still lingering fears!
"What exactly are you going to fight? What about your own case?"
"I plan to..." Zuo Xiaoduo walked over, picked out a pair of hundred-sided hammers, and said, "Uncle Wu, please enlarge this."
Wu Tiejiang did as he was told.
"Uncle Wu, look at the handle of this hammer... it's longer, about two and a half feet."
"Two and a half feet?"
Wu Tiejiang was a little confused: "You hammer player, why do you have such a long handle? If you are not careful, you may break your own waist. And it is too long to use hard, and it takes a lot of effort to swing it."
"It's okay, I've already calculated it. It must be two and a half feet long. There are grooves hidden on both sides, hiding a sword on each side. The thin and narrow sword can be drawn out at any time, but when it is not drawn out, it looks like
, it’s just a hammer handle, so that others can’t see that there’s a sword hidden inside. Isn’t this a difficult request?”
"...It's not difficult."
Wu Tiejiang glanced at Zuo Changlu and murmured: "This guy is quite sinister."
Zuo Changlu rolled his eyes and looked at the ceiling.
This is so gloomy, where is this going?
"Uncle Wu, please look at the handle of this hammer. My preset plan is to make it hollow in the middle, with a chain attached to it. The chain is about ten meters long, which is enough. When you need to take a long-range attack by surprise, you can directly
Flying out, pulling it out and then pulling it back...well, a meteor hammer."
Zuo Xiaoduo coughed: "This hammer handle has a hollow center, a built-in chain, grooves on both sides, and hidden swords... This is not difficult, right?"
"...It's not that difficult."
Zuo Xiaoduo's eyebrows were full of joy: "Like this, when others think that this is a heavy weapon and can only be used in close combat, and they are complacent about opening a distance and consuming my power, I am flying out with a bang. I must have that look on my face,
It must be wonderful.”
"Wonderful...that's for sure."
The muscles on Wu Tiejiang's face twitched, he glanced at Zuo Changlu again, and murmured: "It's so yin."
After thinking for a while, he said: "If you plan to design it like this, the materials of the hammer handle and chain must be carefully considered. Ordinary metal will definitely not meet the strength you require... I have to think about it seriously, but it can still be done.
Yes, it’s not that difficult!”
“As long as it’s not too difficult.”
Zuo Xiaoduo beamed: "Then let's talk about the hammer's own design..."
Wu Tiejiang's eyes bulged: You've been talking for so long, but it's not actually the design of the hammer itself?
This...I have an ominous premonition...
Zuo Xiaoduo was very interested: "I plan to make a hollow hammer. Well, the middle of the hammer body is solid, one big piece, and then there must be a gap between the middle piece and the hammer surface..."
"Gap?" Wu Tiejiang's eyes suddenly widened.
A hollow hammer is enough to pull apart, but if you need to create some gaps, is it still a hammer?!
"Yes, it is necessary to keep a slight gap. Isn't this a hundred-faced hammer? There are about seventy faces on the front and left and right? On each face, two shooting holes are left... and then inside
, set up the mechanism, there are two holes on the face of a hammer, one hole has an ox hair needle, and the other hole has a cone needle. As long as the true energy is activated, you can choose single or continuous shots. There are two or three in each hole of the ox hair needle.
Ten sticks, if it’s a conical needle, ten sticks in one hole is enough..."
Zuo Xiaoduo coughed: "Isn't it difficult, Uncle Wu?"
Wu Tiejiang felt completely bad now and was dumbfounded.
I've been hammered for the rest of my life!
This is the first time I’ve heard of this kind of hammer!
"This is so... Yin... Yin has become the Patriarch!"
Wu Tiejiang turned to look at Zuo Changlu, the muscles on his face kept twitching, and finally asked: "Brother Zuo... is this really your son? His biological son?!"
Zuo Changlu's face turned dark: "What else?!... Do you want to go home for dinner tonight?"
Wu Tiejiang's face suddenly stiffened. After a moment, he said with a smile: "No, no, no, no, no, I don't have to eat. I have to concentrate on making weapons for the children. Things have to be prioritized..."
Zuo Xiaoduo put on a youthful face that was harmless to humans and animals, and asked innocently: "Uncle Wu, do you think this hammer can hit?"
"Can fight..."
Wu Tiejiang's face had begun to twist: "But I probably won't be able to finish the fight in a month... Your request is too much and too complicated. I have to consider it carefully."
"It's not that complicated."
Zuo Xiaoduo found a piece of paper and started to draw a sketch: "Look, Uncle Wu, you first hit the hammer surface like this, and then hit the inner hammer. Naturally, there cannot be a hollow space between the inner hammer and the hammer surface. Use this small upright to fix it.
, welded to death..."
"Then there are design mechanisms here one by one. In fact, you only need to prepare two kinds of mechanisms. Just create the first group and model it, and the rest will follow the rules... It's very easy.
ah."
"As for this mechanism, it doesn't need to be too strong. The ox-hair needle can have lethality within fifty meters, and the awl needle can reach a range of three hundred meters. There should be no big problem, right?"
Zuo Xiaoduo asked.
"I can't fight, I can't do this job."
Wu Tiejiang shook his head like a rattle.
Are you kidding me? The ox-hair needle is fired purely by the power of the mechanism. It can shoot fifty meters and still retain its lethality? Do you know what an ox-hair needle is?
An object not much heavier than a catkin shoots fifty meters?
Are you talking about fantasy?
"Uh...then how far can you make a mechanism that can shoot out?"
There was a slight look of disappointment on Zuo Xiaoduo's face. He felt that the so-called super-class craftsman introduced by his old man seemed to have no other characteristics except that he could shake his head.
It had only been ten minutes, but I had already said words like "I can't do this job" and "Hire someone else who knows me" several times.
If you can't do this kind of work, why are you a blacksmith?
Is it worthy of such a high title as a craftsman?
If Wu Tiejiang knew what Zuo Xiaoduo was thinking now, he would definitely grab the steel-making furnace in the room and put it directly on this kid's head!
Let’s refine all the water out of this kid’s head!
The job you mentioned may not be possible even in the entire continent, the entire universe, and the Milky Way!
This is just making things difficult for people!
"As far as I know, within the scope of the entire Star Soul Continent, the ox-hair needle can have lethality beyond ten meters, which is already the limit! And the point of impact must be on exposed skin."
Wu Tiejiang said weakly.
"Then let's set up a mechanism that can shoot out ten meters."
Zuo Xiaoduo said: "By the way, adding the power of zhenqi can increase the range a lot, right?"
"Mechanism control, you cannot add additional infuriating energy." Wu Tiejiang rolled his eyes.
"Oh." Zuo Xiaoduo was a little disappointed. He once again said in his heart that he was incompetent, and then asked: "Where is the awl needle?"
"The awl needle is easier to make, and it can ensure that it is still lethal at fifty meters." Wu Tiejiang calculated.
"With the upper hole on the hammer surface, it won't deform under the impact of gravity, right?" Zuo Xiaoduo asked again.
"It depends on the material. Although Qianhuanjin is made of good material, it cannot be deformed unless it is immortal gold." Wu Tiejiang rolled his eyes.
"Then use immortal gold for the hammer surface!"
Wu Tiejiang said feebly: "One kilogram of thousand phantom gold can only extract at most half a tael of immortal gold... Twenty-five grams is already the limit..."
"As long as it can be made, the material is not a problem!"
Zuo Xiaoduo was wealthy and said: "There are plenty of materials, enough."
Enough!?
Wu Tiejiang looked at Zuo Changlu with doubtful eyes. Zuo Changlu coughed and had to smooth things over for his son: "It is indeed enough. Xiaonan sent some over a few days ago..."
Wu Tiejiang said with sympathy: "Xiaonan is really in trouble."
Immediately, he received two stern warning looks from Zuo Changlu, and an invitation letter that was about to be handed out to him for dinner at home.
Wu Tiejiang suddenly felt chilled all over.
"There is no problem with the materials. I can definitely fight, right?" Zuo Xiaoduo asked diligently.
"It can hit!" Wu Tiejiang said through gritted teeth. He could feel now that these two hammers were most likely the most expensive and luxurious hammers he had ever made in his life.
"It's good if you can fight."
Zuo Xiaoduo beamed, feeling that this blacksmith still had two brushes and could barely be regarded as a competent blacksmith.
"How much do your two hammers weigh? The weight must be accurate."
The more Wu Tiejiang thought about it, the more he realized that the problem was huge.
I couldn't help but ask: "If it's too small, it certainly won't be able to hold so many things, but if it's big, it'll be too heavy."
"Using a weapon such as a hammer is not as simple as just lifting it up and smashing it over. No matter how heavy the hammer is, it must be as light as nothing in the user's hand. This really requires divine power.
Especially the material you have is even more demanding in this regard."
