In the afternoon, Lu Ren walked out of the villa and wandered around the streets of the county town.

He found a blacksmith shop that made a living by making weapons, and then walked in.

"This guy looks unfamiliar. What kind of weapon do you need?

A shirtless middle-aged man with a dark complexion smiled and greeted him.

"I just take a look"

"No problem, we have plenty of ready-made weapons here, you can just pay for whichever one you like and take it away."

The shirtless middle-aged man was already accustomed to this kind of customers who only looked but did not buy, so he did not take it to heart and continued to work on his hands.

Lu Ren took a quick look around and did not find the hidden weapon he liked.

Even if there was a suitable shape and size, he would not buy it.

Ordinary iron tools could hardly meet his current needs.

He relied on injecting spiritual energy to make the hidden weapon have super explosive power, which required the material of the hidden weapon itself to be strong enough.

Otherwise, the hidden weapon would self-destruct as soon as it was launched, before it hit the enemy, because it could not withstand the influence of the spiritual energy.

"Boss."

The shirtless middle-aged man raised his head and showed a hearty smile:"Brother, have you made your choice?"

Lu Ren shook his head and asked:"Do you have any high-strength iron and stone materials here?"

"Why are you asking this?" The shirtless middle-aged man looked alert.

"To be honest, the strength of your weapons is not up to my expectations."

The shirtless middle-aged man looked at him carefully and asked in surprise,"Are you a martial artist?"

He dare not say how good the weapons in his shop are, but the quality is definitely guaranteed.

Many martial artists have said that they are good, which has attracted many repeat customers.

But the young man in front of him actually made such a bold statement, claiming that the weapons he made were not strong enough.

If the other party is not deliberately looking for trouble, there is only one explanation.

Lu Ren admitted this very frankly.

Seeing this, the shirtless middle-aged man was silent for a moment, and the doubt between his brows slowly dissipated.

"I also have stronger black iron, but if you want to customize a weapon, you may have to wait for a long time, at least half a month before delivery, and the price is not low."

Lu Ren asked:"Then I only buy the materials and use your land to make it myself?"

The shirtless middle-aged man was stunned:"You can make weapons?"

Lu Ren smiled modestly:"I know a thing or two."

"Black iron is very expensive. If your forging skills are not up to par, the failure rate will be very high. Are you sure you want to come in person?"

"Don't worry, if you fail, I will compensate you with everything I have to pay you."

After receiving Lu Ren's promise, the shirtless middle-aged man stopped trying to persuade him.

"I can lend you the place for free, just for your courage, no matter whether it succeeds or not, I will only charge you the cost price of the black iron, and I won’t make a penny."

Lu Ren bowed slightly:"Then I thank you in advance." The shirtless middle-aged man frowned, not understanding where Lu Ren's confidence came from.

The other party looked young, and he was able to become a martial artist, which showed that he had good talent.

Such a talent should devote all his energy to martial arts training, how could he be distracted by studying the art of iron forging?

Although he still had doubts in his heart, the middle-aged man took out all the black iron stored in the store as promised.

"Everything is here." He crossed his arms, raised his chin and said,"Please start your performance."

The middle-aged man was skeptical of Lu Ren in his words and deeds. He was ready to see Lu Ren make a fool of himself.

If it was ordinary iron, it would be fine. Ordinary people could easily get started after practicing for a few months.

But black iron is different. Its material is extremely tough and needs to be repeatedly hammered at high temperatures to remove all impurities.

This process not only consumes a lot of physical strength, but also requires mastery of strength and skills.

Not to mention a novice, even an old blacksmith with superb skills may not be able to easily master the forging of black iron.

Lu Ren ignored the middle-aged man's pessimistic eyes. God.

He rolled up his sleeves and skillfully put the black iron into the furnace to melt it into molten iron.

The whole process was smooth and there was not a single unnecessary movement.

Time passed little by little.

Lu Ren poured the molten iron into the mold, and after it cooled and solidified, he got a palm-sized iron sheet.

Next, it was time to really test his skills.

Lu Ren swung the hammer and began to hammer the red-hot iron sheet.

His arms rose and fell, with a brisk and natural rhythm, like a muscle memory developed over decades.

The middle-aged man watching from the side was dumbfounded.

This kid's forging skills.......There is actually a master style!

How is this possible?!!

Iron forging is different from martial arts training.

If a person is gifted, he can achieve remarkable achievements at a young age.

But the way of refining requires real experience accumulation.

Without decades of practice, it is impossible to achieve the ease and comfort of Lu Ren.

The black iron seemed particularly obedient under his hammer, allowing Lu Ren to forge the shape he wanted. In just two hours, Lu Ren successfully forged a batch of twelve diamond-shaped darts.

He felt it in his hands and was very satisfied with it.

""Boss, how much?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. He stared at the hidden weapon in Lu Ren's hand with fanatical eyes, and a bold idea emerged in his mind.

He ignored the strange eyes of the apprentices and customers in the shop, and knelt straight in front of Lu Ren.

"I am a junior who was not able to recognize a great man. I was disrespectful earlier."

After a sincere apology, the middle-aged man kowtowed to Lu Ren.

"Master, please accept me as your disciple and teach me the method of refining weapons!"

This time it was Lu Ren's turn to be stunned.........

I just want to create a batch of handy hidden weapons, I really don't mean to show off!

"that....You get up first, and then you can talk slowly."

The middle-aged man shook his head stubbornly:"If the master is unwilling to accept me as a disciple, then I will kneel down and not get up."

Lu Ren:"........"

Where did you learn this moral blackmail trick?

He looked a little embarrassed. After a moment of silence, he said to the middle-aged man:

"I have something important to do today. How about you come back to see me after I’m done?

The middle-aged man couldn’t believe it:"Master, are you serious?"

He was worried that the other party was just a temporary measure and he would never find him again once he left.

Lu Ren took a deep breath.

This person is really hard to deal with.

"How about this, I'll tell you an address, come to me at this time tomorrow, and I'll definitely give you an answer."

As he said this, Lu Ren told the middle-aged man the address of Lin Jinyan's villa.

The next moment, his figure disappeared from the weapon shop.

Now everything is ready, it's time to go hunting monsters.
