I have become immortal, Taoist friends still need to be diligent

"Only these two medical books and this miscellaneous book are of some value. How much does it cost?"

Li Mu looked through the first and second floors, took three books in his hand and said to the middle-aged man who was in a bad mood.

"Five hundred coins."

"Okay, here you go."

Li Mu gave the store one tael of silver, and the store asked Li Mu for 500 coins.

Li Mu put the copper coins into the cloth bag on his horse and started wandering around again.

"Is there a blacksmith? Go in and have a look."

When Li Mu saw a blacksmith shop, he tied his horse to a pillar nearby and walked in.

"What do you want to hit, little brother?"

As soon as Li Mu entered, a middle-aged man about fifty years old came up to him and asked.

"Oh, what do you guys fight?"

"Knives, swords, guns, etc., as long as they are weapons of medium quality or below, we can fight most of them."

"Oh, where can I fight at mid-level and above?"

"The county seat, or the county."

"Ok."

Li Mu got nothing and left the blacksmith shop.

The weapons in this world are also classified from low to high into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.

The sword in Li Mu's hand was a middle-grade sword. At first, Li Mu wanted to use the sword because he thought it looked handsome.

Recently, Li Mu wanted to fight with a sword, because Li Mu felt very domineering.

But Li Mu didn't want low-grade weapons, which felt weak and couldn't be bought in the town unless he went to the county town.

But Li Mu doesn't want to go to the county seat now, so he is very annoyed. Should he fight by himself?

"Fight yourself?"

Li Mu thought for a moment and immediately returned to the blacksmith shop.

"You want to learn blacksmithing?"

The blacksmith master looked at Li Mu with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a little unbelievable.

"Did you know that blacksmithing can be quite dirty and tiring?"

"I know, master, just tell me if you can learn it."

Seeing that the other party was still trying to persuade him, Li Mu said immediately.

"It's okay, but if you want to learn real skills, I won't teach anyone else except my son. After all, he is the one who eats."

The master blacksmith is also honest.

"Hey, master, this is one hundred taels. How much do you want to pay to learn all your skills?"

Li Mu didn't talk nonsense and immediately slapped a hundred taels of silver notes on the table and said.

"Well, the young hero is really a happy person. In this way, I hit it off with the young hero today. For five hundred taels, I will teach you things that even my son has not learned."

When the middle-aged and elderly man saw that Li Mu was so generous, he immediately said with a smile.

"Okay, there are five hundred taels here. Master, when do we start?"

"So urgent?"

"Fortunately."

"Then come tomorrow."

……

In this way, in addition to practicing one day, Li Mu went to the blacksmith shop to learn how to forge iron.

Li Mu knew that tuition for low-grade weapons was not that expensive. After all, an ordinary low-grade weapon only cost about thirty taels of silver, and an ordinary blacksmith shop could not accept many orders a year. After all, there are many blacksmiths who can make low-grade weapons.

But Li Mu didn't care. Firstly, Li Mu was not short of money, and secondly, Li Mu didn't want the other party to give him a discount as soon as he bargained for a price.

"Come on, keep fighting. After one hundred refinements, it will be considered a low-grade weapon embryo. This process has been completed."

"Good."

After a period of study, Li Mu has completely mastered the first process of melting metal, and now it is the second process of blacksmithing.

Just take a sledgehammer and hit folded metal.

Folding it once is one practice, and folding it ten times is ten practices. This is the standard for general agricultural tools.

Thirty years of practice can make a kitchen knife. After fifty exercises, you can make an ordinary weapon.

One hundred levels are low-grade weapon embryos, three hundred levels are mid-grade weapon embryos, one thousand levels are high-grade weapon embryos, and three thousand levels and above are top-grade weapon embryos.

Therefore, if you want to practice more frequently, you must firstly use good materials, and secondly, control the intensity not too much or too little.

……

"Very good. Now you can barely complete a low-grade weapon on your own. You will need time to polish it in the future. I can't teach you anything."

In three months, Li Mu learned all the skills of the master blacksmith, which made the master blacksmith very sad.

Li Mu also knew that this was because of his great strength and ability to comprehend.

"Thank you very much for this time, Master Zhang. I won't be here starting tomorrow. I'll take my leave."

Before Li Mu left, he invited the master blacksmith to have a meal, and the master blacksmith also taught Li Mu his unique skills.

I heard from the master blacksmith that this trick was passed down from ancestors, which is to add a certain proportion of blood every time the metal is melted, and the weapon's power will be increased by 30%.

The specific amount to put depends on different metals for debugging.

"This old man is quite honest."

On the way home on horseback, Li Mu thought about the words of the drunk blacksmith and nodded secretly.

"Here, put it here, okay, right here."

Starting from the second day, Li Mu transformed his yard into a blacksmith shop in the martial arts hall, which included a warehouse, a blacksmithing room, a bedroom, a cooling pool, etc.

"Dingling bang bang~"

Li Mu started his blacksmithing career.

After a while, Li Mu felt that he should be able to produce a mid-level weapon. The key was to obtain a good piece of metal.

"Brother, why did you ask me to come over and help you blacksmith?"

Li Tiechui asked Li Mu curiously.

"Because you have a connection with blacksmithing."

Li Mu said with a mysterious smile.

"Oh, what is the connection between the second brother and me?"

Li Tiechui asked doubtfully.

"Herding cattle. Stop talking and turn on the bellows quickly, otherwise the fire will become smaller again."

"Ok."

"Huchihuchi~"

At a young age, Li Tiechui did not understand what child labor was.

"It's melting, it's melting. Increase the firepower."

Li Mu quickly urged when he saw that the piece he bought recently was metalized.

"Add a pound of white iron and a pound of black whirlwind's blood."

Black Whirlwind is Li Mu's horse.

"Well, it's almost there."

"Ding bell clang~"

"Eighty~"

"Eighty-one~"

"Hold on, three hundred and seventy-two~"

Finally, Li Mu shot a 395-level weapon embryo.

"Not bad, Hammer, keep working hard on the bellows, and I'll give you a pony when you're done."

Li Mu looked at Li Tiechui who started to sweat and encouraged him.

"Okay, brother, don't worry. I can't guarantee anything else, but I've known that you are strong since you were a child."

Li Tiechui shed more sweat under Li Mu's encouragement.

"Ding bell clang~"

There was another sound of hammer hitting metal.

"Si~"

"Let's start the attack."

Li Mu said to himself after cooling down the weapon he shot in his hand.

"Okay, done."

Two days later, Li Mu was very happy when he saw the decorated and sharpened sword.

This sword is 1.7 meters long, five fingers wide, one finger thick, and the handle is 35 centimeters long. The blade is bright white, similar to an ordinary blade, but more shiny. The handle is black.

It is a two-handed saber with a total weight of thirty-eight kilograms.

From a distance, it is just one word.

"Exposed arrogance."

"Second uncle, why are you here?"

Li Mu asked when he saw Li Erzhuang coming in.

"I just want to see what you, the eldest son of Li, are doing when you are not doing your job every day."

"Hey, it's nothing."

Li Mu laughed when he saw Li Erzhuang insinuating that he didn't get married or practice martial arts, but instead came to blacksmith.

"Bring it to me to see."

"Give."

As soon as Li Erzhuang stretched out his hand, Li Mu quickly handed over the knife.

"Brush, brush~"

"Not bad, it seems you are suitable to be a blacksmith."

Li Erzhuang said something after trying the knife.

"But I don't have good sword skills."

Li Mu took advantage of the opportunity and quickly hinted to Li Erzhuang.

"Look what I do. The middle-grade swordsmanship and martial arts schools have them, but they are not suitable for this large open and large closed one, unless you go and buy one."

Li Erzhuang saw through Li Mu's thoughts at once, but he was a swordsman, and he only had a few books on swordsmanship for the martial arts school.
