Chapter 97
If you want to do things well, you must first sharpen your tools. The heart-locking archery technique is extremely domineering, but if you don’t have a good bow and arrow, you will not be able to exert the power you deserve.
The bow that Zhang Ruoyao gave him was quite good, but the arrow was a little more ordinary.
Taking this opportunity, Lu Yu planned to refine a few arrows himself, so it would be vain to come to this weapon sect to go back to the sect.
There are two places in the Refining Pavilion, east and west, and a material library.
Under the leadership of Master Jia, Lu Yu came to the material library, where hundreds of different refining materials were piled up.
"This is black crystal, with high hardness. It is rosin jade, with excellent toughness. It also has Hanshanquan, Tianmu root, copper, silver iron, and a very complete material."
Master Jia is introducing Lu Yu.
"This is also called complete? Fish pattern sand, flying swallow mud, sky horn wood? Jade fragrance flowers, snake spirit bones, black dog tails, not to mention those."
Master Jia was stunned and said in surprise: "Those who can refine weapons?"
Lu Yu cursed: "It's terrible to be uneducated. You have become a monk halfway through the journey and are like a stupid master. No wonder you are so stupid."
Master Jia was secretly annoyed, but he couldn't figure out Lu Yu's background, so he could only smile awkwardly and laughed humbly.
"Praying ink and serving."
Lu Yu is quite well-behaved and has a bit of a master's demeanor.
"I'll endure."
Master Jia gritted his teeth. He was already over the age of impulse. For the method of refining sword weapons that Lu Yu mentioned, it was worth temporarily receiving some energy.
"Here you come."
Lu Yu accepted the pen and ink, and wrote down a series of materials.
Master Jia saw it and scratched his head and said, "What is jade agarwood? I haven't heard of it before. There are also incomplete rulers, round rhinoceros horns, black star sand, these..."
Master Jia was a little embarrassed and looked at Lu Yu with a confused look on his face.
"These are common materials for refining weapons. You can basically find them when you look at the refining tools."
Master Jia was stunned and realized: "So that's how it is, it's so clever."
Lu Yu said to himself: "You're so smart, you're too stupid and don't know everything."
"Okay, go and prepare quickly, I'll wait for you here."
Master Jia hurriedly left, while Lu Yu was wandering around the material library.
"Hey, this iron lump is a little heavy."
Lu Yu walked around and found a piece of copper-colored iron stone, which felt much heavier than normal fine iron.
"This is……"
Lu Yu carefully identified it, and his face showed an unexpected look.
"Purple Ice Copper Steel! It's so good, harder than black iron, enough for me to refine three wind and thunder arrows!"
Lu Yu was overjoyed. He didn't expect that in this small material library, a rare material such as purple meteorite copper steel could be found.
Soon, Master Jia prepared all the materials and returned to Lu Yu's side.
"Let's go, refine arrows!"
Lu Yu returned to the military refining furnace, Master Jia took the fire for him and helped him. The latest and fastest update
"Refining weapons is the same as refining alchemy. The temperature is very important. What is more important is the method of refining weapons. Usually, the master will keep one hand and will not teach them all. It will be even more difficult for you to learn real talents and learn real skills."
Master Jia nodded and said, "Yes, the advanced art of refining weapons is too difficult to learn. It is not that he has poor talent, but that his master refuses to teach it."
Lu Yu waved the hammer and forged the fine iron while saying, "Apprentices should have skills, be good at summarizing experience, explore and practice privately, and know how to pretend to be stupid."
Master Jia was stunned and said in confusion: "Pretending to be stupid? Why?"
Lu Yu cursed: "Idiot, I don't know this. If you are too smart, the master will be wary of you, for fear that you will surpass him after learning his skills. Then he will make a big fuck. So, ordinary alchemy masters and weapon refining masters like stupid students and don't like too smart apprentices."
Master Jia suddenly realized and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes! You are so right. I said that every time I go to ask Master Tang for advice, he is always Wang Gu. It turns out that he is afraid that I will surpass him after learning. Why didn't I think of this at the beginning?"
Lu Yu laughed and scolded: "If you think about it, you won't be so bad."
The materials Lu Yu prepared were enough for him to refine twelve iron arrows, while the purple-meteorite copper steel was only enough for refining three wind and thunder arrows because of its scarcity. That was Lu Yu's focus.
"The biggest difference between weapons and magic weapons is inscription patterns, that is, inscription formations. If a weapon refiner does not understand the inscription formation, what is the difference between it and a blacksmith?"
"There are differences between the internal and external weapons, first outside and then inside. The outside refers to the appearance, and the inside refers to the internal mystery. Whether the appearance is exquisite, whether it conforms to the usage rules, the selection of materials, forging, and fire refining, are all very important. The internal mystery generally refers to the inscription array, which can be a single array or a composite multiple inscription array. The more complex the process, the more mysterious the inscription array, the higher the level of the instrument."
"Sword weapon, sword weapon, is not only a sword, it is also a weapon. Its appearance is not enough, but also an internal inscription array can play an auxiliary role. The sword you are practicing is average in shape, and the internal inscription array is too simple, so the quality is low and it cannot be used on the table."
While refining arrows, Lu Yu explained to Master Jia, which was also a guide.
Master Jia looked at Lu Yu's technique, proficiency and exquisite handling, and had already convinced him and respected him as a god.
"How can I improve my sword refining?"
Lu Yu said: "I will teach you a set of methods for refining sword weapons, including selection of materials, materials, appearance, inscription array, heat, etc. How much you can learn depends on your understanding."
Master Jia was overjoyed and said excitedly: "Even if I have my life, I must learn it! If you have any needs in the future, just say it and go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Lu Yu chuckled and gave a little favor, he could win people's hearts, and he could control his people with both kindness and power.
Two hours later, the twelve iron arrows were initially formed.
"How come there are two colors, what's the difference?"
Master Jia asked humbly. Lu Yu said: "These nine arrows are dark black and are called Youfeng Arrows. The arrows are silent. The arrows are slender and the sound of breaking through the air is extremely small. It is generally not easy for the enemy to detect them. These three arrows are copper-colored, called Wind and Thunder Arrows. They are made of better materials and are as hard as possible. They can be engraved with stronger array patterns, thus having stronger power."
Master Jia asked, "The stronger the Ming Formation, the stronger the power?"
Lu Yu said: "That depends on the materials. The inscription array that is too strong can't afford it. Therefore, the selection and use of high-grade magic weapons are very important."
Master Jia said: "The arrow of this wind and thunder arrow is not big, and it is probably difficult to engrave the too complicated array pattern."
"This requires skill, and it is not only engraved on the arrow, but the entire arrow must be engraved in the whole body, so that the effect can be maximized."
"The whole body inscription is very difficult."
Lu Yu smiled and said, "Of course it's high for you, but for me, it's average."
At dusk, the nine Youfeng Arrow Inscriptions were completed and the refining was successfully completed.
Lu Yu tried it and the results were very ideal, and he was quite satisfied.
Chapter completed!
