Chapter 10
clang - clang -

The sound of striking iron continued to echo in the yard.

Wei Xueshi was sitting on the bed, sewing the quilt with a needle and thread, with a little sadness in her eyes.

In fact, listening to the sound of iron hammering every day, she would feel extremely at ease.

It's just that every time I think of Wei Tieshan, I can't help feeling sad.

The quilt in her hand was sewn for Wei Tieshan.

Tomorrow she was going to visit Wei Tieshan in prison, and she would send this quilt in by the way.

After all, the weather is cold, and the conditions in the prison are no better than at home. It is estimated that there is not even a warm quilt.

"It's been so many days, I don't know if Daoist Sun and the others have caught that evil cultivator!" Wei Xue muttered in his heart.

However, at this time, at the gate of the county government.

Sun Lin turned around, looked at the short, fat middle-aged man in an official uniform with a sword hanging on his waist, bowed his hands and said, "Master Zheng, please stop!"

"Okay, Daochang Sun and Daochang Li go slowly!" said the chunky middle-aged man.

He is Zheng Cong, the magistrate of Yushui County in Qingzhou Prefecture.

"Farewell!" Sun Lin and his younger brother cupped their hands again.

Immediately, he left the county office and walked all the way to the south gate.

When the two passed by the blacksmith shop of the Wei family, Sun Lin couldn't help but stop.

Turning his head and taking a look from a distance, he sighed secretly at the "iron" flag fluttering in the wind.

Immediately continue to walk towards the city gate.

They are about to leave Qingzhou City today and return to their sect.

At this stage, they tried their best to track down the evil cultivator, but found nothing.

That evil cultivator is hiding very deeply, and he may have already left this place, so it is not easy to find him.

Now that the deadline for them to go down the mountain has come, it's time to go back and report back.

I am afraid that the matter of evil cultivation can only be temporarily shelved.

Sun Lin originally wanted to say goodbye to Wei Xueshi and Wei Yi.

But thinking about it, I don't know how to face them.

If they knew that they could not find the evil cultivator, they would be disappointed.

Instead of letting them face this harsh reality now.

It's better not to tell them for the time being, at least there is a glimmer of hope in my heart.

The figures of Sun Lin and his junior brother gradually disappeared into the distance.

The streets are still full of traffic, and the flags of the blacksmith shop are still fluttering.

Wei Yi was so immersed in blacksmithing that he had already forgotten the passage of time.

And in order to forge a new sword as soon as possible.

Wei Yi even left the dinner to his aunt to cook.

After dinner, he immediately started forging the sword again.

After cold forging and shoveling, the appearance of a sword has already taken shape in his hands.

"Stone, add some more coal to heat up the fire!" Wei Yi said to Stone.

The stone was also very motivated, and immediately began to add coal to the blacksmith's furnace.

Then pull the bellows and blow the fire extremely vigorously.

Seeing that the fire had reached the temperature he needed, Wei Yi stopped the stone.

Then put the blade into the blacksmith's furnace to heat up, and throw a few crystal-like stones in it at the same time.

This stone is called Qiangshi, which is a unique mineral in this world. Wei Yi actually doesn't know the specific elements in it.

It's just that according to the skills I have mastered, I can release some special substances after heating this kind of stone in the furnace.

This substance will gradually penetrate into the sword body during the heating process, which can greatly improve the hardness and toughness of the sword body.

In fact, this is somewhat similar to Wei Yi's chemical heat treatment method in his previous life.

"Stone, go and rest, and leave the rest to me!"

For the next heat treatment, Wei Yi needs to precisely control the temperature by himself.

In a certain temperature range, keep enough time.

Only in this way can the best effect be achieved.

And this process can't be done by stone, only he can do it himself.

Wei Yi stayed by the blacksmith's stove until late at night, and when the heating time was long enough, he went back to sleep.

Because then just wait for the sword body to cool down slowly along with the furnace fire.

After returning to the room, Wei Yi simply wiped his body and went to bed to rest.

Lying on the bed, he called up the system panel again and looked at it.

Name: Wei Yi

Root qualification: very poor

Shouyuan: 42 years old (+28 days)
Blacksmithing skill: Level 95 ([-]% less proficiency to level up)
Cooking skills: Tier 98 ([-]% proficiency is still short of upgrade)
Writing skills: Level 33 ([-]% less proficiency from leveling up)
Painting skills: Level 21 ([-]% less proficiency from leveling up)
Sculpting skills: Level [-] (upgrading has not yet started)
His cooking skills were successfully promoted to the third level after cooking dinner yesterday.

This promotion allowed him to gain a lot of very valuable cooking skills and experience.

Already has the level of a chef.

In addition to including more than ten kinds of sauce preparation methods and more than 30 delicacies cooking methods,
Also acquired superb knife and food carving skills.

Not only that, but he also obtained a very good special ability-knowing the taste of the marrow.

Knowing the taste of the marrow does not mean that the taste of the marrow is very good, and I want to try it again after eating it.

It means that he can remember the taste of a food very clearly after tasting it.

At the same time, it can also identify a dish, which ingredients are used, which seasonings, and the approximate ratio.

In turn, it can help him infer his cooking method and reproduce it.

In other words, with this ability, Wei Yi can almost replicate all the dishes he has eaten.

Even if you don't do it well, you can be better than blue than blue.

"After I become a ninth-rank swordsmith and earn some capital, I can consider opening another restaurant." Wei Yi thought to himself.

Before he knew it, he fell asleep with a bright vision for the future.

Silent all night.

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning poured into the yard, Wei Yi's figure also appeared at the door of the room again.

He stretched himself, fetched a basin of water from the jar, and washed his face.

The charcoal fire in the blacksmith's furnace had already been extinguished, but there was still warmth inside.

Wei Yi took out the sword body with an iron clamp, and after it cooled down completely, he polished it with a whetstone.

After observing it carefully, there was the water wave texture he expected on the blade of the sword.

"It should be successful!" Wei Yixin said, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

But the heat treatment of this sword is not over yet, he still needs to reheat and quench it.

After breakfast, Wei Xue took the quilt she made for Wei Tieshan and the meat buns she specially wrapped to the county government office.

She stuffed some silver taels into the yamen servant, and then brought the things into the cell.

When seeing Wei Tieshan, Wei Xue, who has always been strong, couldn't help but shed fragile tears.

Wei Tieshan lost a lot of weight and was dirty, but he looked in good spirits.

There are some hidden wounds on his body, which were all beaten during the interrogation, but they can't hurt his life.

Due to the limited visiting time, Wei Xue didn't feel too sentimental.

Wiping away his tears, he quickly told Wei Tieshan the current situation at home.

So that Wei Tieshan can rest assured.

Knowing that Wei Yi has become a real blacksmith, Wei Tieshan was also very surprised.

But more is happy.

"Great, now that Yi'er is here, I can finally rest assured!" Wei Tieshan let out a sigh of relief.

During this time, what caused him the most pain was not the imminent death.

It's about his wife and daughter, his nephew and Shitou's concern.

He knew very well that without himself, the sky of the whole family would collapse.

Fortunately, now that Wei Yi is here, his hanging heart can finally fall to the ground.

"Tieshan, Daoist Sun of Yuntianzong said that he will definitely catch that evil cultivator. When the time comes to prove your innocence, you can go home!"

"Yeah!" Wei Tieshan nodded and squeezed out a bitter smile.

In fact, he knew better than anyone else that he might never be able to get out of this cell again.

Boss Liu of Baoxinghang will never let him go easily.

Fortunately, now that Wei Yi is supporting the family, even if he dies, he can rest in peace.

The visiting time came soon, and Wei Xue left the cell reluctantly.

Before leaving, she checked again.

I hope those yamen servants can treat Wei Tieshan better.
