Chapter 37 The first star-patterned weapon (2)
Since Li Da's description of the Amber Songlin, Zhu Zhu and Zhongli Xiu have no idea of picking up a piece of amber in the ancient minerals, and are more afraid of the original spirit ancient beasts. In the past few days, everyone has been preparing for the Amber Songlin, while Zhu Zhu and Zhongli Xiu and several other young people are busy building their own weapons. There is no weapon refiner in the Bichan Palace, so their weapons can only be found by themselves. The help Li Da and Zhou Fang gave them is limited to teaching a set of inscription methods, which is a compulsory ability for each star pattern master. In fact, Zhongli Xiu and Ouyang Fei have known each other long ago, and Zhu Zhu is only left to practice, and he must learn it before refining the weapon, otherwise he will not have the chance to inscription on his weapons.
Zhongli Xiu and Tuoba Meng, who had been waiting for Zhu Zhu to make trouble, did not see Zhu Zhu's busy figure, but found that he was also looking for materials for refining tools like himself. With their current cultivation level, only steel weapons can be used. The stainless steel weapons are made of fine steel and gold melted from fine steel ore, and other auxiliary materials that can enhance the toughness and strength of weapons. These materials are not scarce, and are produced in the Heat Basin closest to Bichan Palace. The only weapon refiner in the Dongliuhai area also lives in the Heat Basin.
The heat brazier has a special landform. Although it is not large in size, it has numerous valleys around it. There are many mines in the valley, like caves, countless, but most of them have been abandoned and no longer exploited. Li Da repeatedly reminded him to build his own weapons. In order not to be disturbed by any factors, Zhu Zhu and his men did not walk together, but spread out in a scattered manner, and chose a valley to search for it.
Although the total amount of stainless steel metal is rich, it does not gather in large quantities, but is scattered, either buried deep underground or on the surface of a hill, with mixed quality. The quality of the fine steel gold ore produced in the same area is also different. Because it is difficult to mine, few merchants do business with fine steel gold ore. Only those mountain people dig pits and mining in their spare time, try their luck and make some pocket money. Most pits are dug by star pattern masters. In order to get a good piece of raw material, they often hollow out the entire mountain, but there are still many who have nothing to gain.
Zhu Zhu had searched over dozens of mines, but still found nothing. Either the mine was empty and there was no ore, or the ore was extremely poor and could not be used. The ore shovel in his hand had worn out several gaps, which looked bright and shining. Zhu Zhu looked at the empty valley and the starry pits in the valley, and his depressed mood was even deeper. I don’t know how many star pattern soldiers had been here. They searched and even dug here, and finally found the fine steel ore that they were satisfied with. After being searched and dug by many star pattern soldiers, it was difficult to determine where there was the King Kong gold ore, and it was even more difficult to determine where there was high-quality fine steel ore, perhaps right under his feet, or perhaps in a certain mine, and he felt confused and at a loss.
Before he knew it, a strong wind blew in the valley, making his robe fly. After a moment, it was cloudy, thunder sounded loudly, and heavy rain began to fall due to lightning and thunder. Zhu Zhu hurriedly hid in a mine pit on the mountain wall. He had searched just now. The mine pit was very barren, and even a piece of fine steel and gold ore could not be found. Unexpectedly, it became a place for him to shelter from the rain. He was already a little depressed, and he could not stop seeing the heavy rain for a while. After digging most of the day, he was a little hungry at this time, so he sat down and took out the dry food he brought to eat.
After almost an hour, the rain began to weaken, and the roar of heavy rain turned into a ticking sound, which sounded crisp and pleasant, full of natural rhythm. The tide of the heavy rain made the mine a little dull. Zhu Zhu walked to the entrance of the mine to get some breath. But he saw that the valley had been washed out of a deep ditch by rain. At this time, the rain flowed along the rocks in the trench, like a stream.
The rain still fell like millions of bead lines connecting the sky and the earth. The rain hit the accumulated water on the ground, making a sound of "gudong" and "gudong". Because there are mostly rocks in the valley, the temperature of the sunlight remains on it. At this time, the rain evaporated, and the entire valley was filled with misty water vapor, turning into a hazy area.
Zhu Zhu was surprised to find that the rain at this time was somewhat different from the past, as if it was clearer and more thorough, and even the drops fell were full of charm and charm, as if the beautiful woman was frowning and smiling. The falling rocks were filled with pride of a hero cutting off her arm, and the gathering and separation were even more varied. She couldn't help but feel that the rain was extremely friendly, like a familiar old friend. If Hua Fei took off his clothes, he would see a ray of light wandering like a dragon on his chest, and the glory was as cold and smooth as the moonlight.
The power of the star pattern burst out quietly with the flash of light on Zhu Zhu's chest, sucking the surrounding water vapor like a giant dragon.
In a moment, an invisible vortex of water vapor formed around it. The water vapor gradually became thicker, looking like floating clouds, and in a trance, like groups of deep-sea fish swimming.
Zhu Zhu's eyes gradually became blurred, but another world appeared in his mind. The crystal clear raindrops fell down and turned into winding river water. The river water turned into evaporated water vapor, and then condensed into thick clouds in the sky, and then turned into heavy rain... It seemed that the whole world was trapped in such a cycle, and it would never stop.
Zhu Zhu suddenly woke up. He found that the rain had almost stopped, and a few drops fell. The clouds gradually dissipated, and the sun was exposed from behind, and the world returned to a clear and clear light. Only the misty water vapor in the valley became thicker and thicker, and he could only see less than a hundred meters. At this time, the sound of a bell sounded under his feet, as if someone was ringing a chime bell and playing a song of flowing water in the mountains. It turned out that a dam was formed in the deep ditch washed out by the rain because the water accumulated less water. When the rainwater flowed down and accumulated, it would start to flow. There was a white stone below it, which was hit by the water flow and made a chime-like sound.
Zhu Zhu's eyes lit up immediately. He could not have imagined that the fine steel gold ore he had been looking for was in front of him. He jumped down and dug it out with an ore shovel. He found that the fine steel gold ore was half a meter in size. Judging from its purity, it was enough to make ten fine steel swords. Judging from the identification method taught by Zhou Fang, it could be almost 100% determined that it was a fine steel gold ore, but he was still a little suspicious. He had never heard of such a huge fine steel gold ore, and it would make a musical sound. He looked at the puddle that dug out the ore, and there seemed to be an ore of about the size at the corner, and he dug out the ore. This ore was not as pure as the previous one, with red spots mixed in white. Zhu Zhu smiled. In his opinion, this piece seemed to be more like the fine steel gold ore.
When Zhu Zhu arrived at the Heat Basin, he carried a huge leather bag on his shoulder, which was in addition to two and a half meters ore, and it was also some gravel that he dug along the way, enough to refine a few ore of fine steel swords. Because he later suspected that the white piece was not the fine steel gold ore, he began to doubt that the other piece was not. He always felt that his luck was not so good.
There is no need to look for auxiliary materials for refining weapons, because there are shops selling these spiritual materials in the market town south of the Heat Bath. The shop on the west side seems to be not doing well. The sparse customers come in and go out, and the time spent is just a question or two. The shop owner is a short and thin old man, with a tight bun, wrinkled forehead, gray beard, and wearing a tattered robe. It seems that he hasn't been replaced for a long time, with a lot of oil stains on it. Perhaps only those pretty eyes can tell that he is a smart person. However, when the guests enter, he half-closed his eyes and could not see his charm at all.
When Zhu Zhu entered, the shop owner was sitting on a recliner, holding a fat roast chicken in his hand. He tore off and chewed it hard, as if his skinny cheeks were bulging because of the meat ball, as if he had gained weight.
"Boss, do you have turquoise here?" Zhu Zhu asked. "No!" His answer was very concise. Although he was a little vague, Zhu Zhu still heard it clearly. Zhu Zhu looked at the list of goods on the counter and asked again: "Then... is there a dragon**?" "No." "Is there any silk silver?" "No." The old man seemed to know only that. But his chicken eating speed was not slow. He had swept away one chicken leg and was about to put his mouth on the other chicken leg.
"Then... is there a phoenix blood stone?" Zhu Zhu wanted to leave, but he saw an interesting thing from the long list of goods. "Yes." The old man almost jumped up from the chair, removed the chicken legs from his mouth, looked at Zhu Zhu with an unbelievable look, and asked, "How much do you want?"
