The short bearded man's words attracted the attention of the other blacksmiths in the iron shop. This was a critical moment. Who would be so reckless as to come and cause trouble?
Did they really think that blacksmiths only knew how to forge?
When they looked around angrily, they found that Gu Beichuan was greeting them warmly, as if he had seen an old friend whom they had not seen for many years.
Don't panic when you encounter an awkward situation. Treat them as good friends. Even if you don't know them, you can treat them as relatives and definitely won't be beaten up.
Brother, uncle, grandfather, a series of sweet calls, as long as he wasn't disgusted.
"What happened?"
Iron Goat, who was slightly weaker than Iron Bull, walked out of the iron shop and asked the short-bearded man who almost attacked Gu Beichuan.
"This brat has been causing trouble. He won't leave even if I ask him to. This is a critical moment in forging. We can't make any mistakes. If there's a mistake and the forging fails, can he bear the responsibility?”
The short bearded man angrily accused Gu Beichuan, his mouth full of responsibility and blame.
I'm not here to steal your son or your wife.
He made me look like a heinous thief.
"I just wanted to observe and learn how to forge a sword. I didn't do anything else. It was this brother who chased me away the moment he came.”
Gu Beichuan pretended to be pitiful, and his eyes started to turn red.
She acted as if she was innocent and that she was framed.
"Is that so?"
Iron Goat questioned the short-bearded man solemnly. It was obvious that Gu Beichuan's grievance had affected Iron Goat's judgment.
"I didn't cause trouble, but…"
The short-bearded man wanted to defend himself, but Iron Goat stopped him sternly."
"Since this little fellow is only watching the forging of the sword and did not do anything, just allow him to watch. How old are you to bully a child?”
Brother Goat, is he still a child?"
The short-bearded man pointed at Gu Beichuan, who was already in his teens, dumbfounded. With such a child, he must have just become an adult.
"I'm a child to begin with. This brother was fierce to me just now, and I was afraid. I don't know what I did wrong, I just wanted to learn how to forge swords.”
Gu Beichuan was a good actor, and he called him " Brother ", causing his short beard to have goosebumps.
“……”
The short-bearded man was speechless, and his face was filled with black lines.
"Please don't be a green tea kid and be more normal. Can't I let you see how I forge a sword?”
If he continued, he would vomit out the food he had eaten in the morning.
"Alright, little guy, you can watch from the side. Remember not to shout.”
Iron Goat gently stroked Gu Beichuan's head.
The man with the short beard glared at Gu Beichuan angrily and walked into the iron shop, ignoring Gu Beichuan.
Without anyone's interference, Gu Beichuan concentrated on enjoying Iron Bull's sword-forging performance.
Gu Beichuan had the Star Transformation, and his eyesight was like an eagle's eye. Every time Iron Bull hit the sword, Gu Beichuan could see the impact and level of the hammer.
Gu Beichuan noticed every tiny change.
If one was a little more powerful, one would be able to see the attraction and repulsion between particles.
Crackling.
The sound of hammering echoed throughout the ironworks, and every blacksmith's palms were covered in cold sweat.
Iron Bull did not dare to be distracted at all. His right hand repeatedly tapped.
Twenty-five, twenty-six…
Every hammer strike had to be precise.
However, the fatigue in his hands caused Iron Bull's nerves to begin to deteriorate, and his strength was slowly decreasing.
Sweat dripped all over the ground. No one knew if they would succeed.
The thirty-sixth hammer strike.
The hammer in Iron Bull's hand smashed onto the ground. His hand could not stop trembling, and he had lost the ability to strike thirty-seven times.
Ding! Successfully learned iron casting. [Reward: Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Technique, three levels up.]
The blacksmith in the ironsmith shop went over. Iron Goat helped Iron Bull up and asked softly,"
"How did it go?"
The weak Iron Bull, whose lips were pale and his muscles sore, replied in a weak voice,
" Forge the sword thirty-six times is my limit, but I still can't remove all the impurities inside. It's my fault. My strength is not enough. Back then, I secretly learned from the master of Gengxin City and left in high spirits. In the end, I still couldn't forge a perfect weapon.”
Iron Bull's pale face was filled with regret. This top-grade iron ore came from a noble. If something went wrong with this mission, he wouldn't be able to live well.
"Sigh! It's not your fault. It's our fate.”
Iron Goat let out a long sigh and helped Iron Bull to sit down on a chair. He was a little resigned to his fate. A blacksmith who could not forge good iron was just like a doctor who could not practice medicine. He would lose his reputation as a quack.
The other blacksmiths lowered their heads. They would definitely face the wrath of the nobles if they failed to forge the sword. What awaited them would be a round of torture.
Iron Goat walked to the front of the half-completed iron sword, his heart filled with mixed feelings. Even Iron Bull couldn't handle this job. In the end, they were too greedy and self-righteous to accept this hot potato.
"Brother Goat, is there really no other way?”
The short-bearded man asked, unwilling to accept his fate.
"The iron has already become a tool, and there is no way to forge it well. Our half-baked skills are simply unable to repair and forge it, unless the Strength Clan, Blacksmith Wang Lougao, and his disciples have the ability to save it.”
Iron Goat shook his head dispiritedly, feeling unspeakably sour.
"Are we really going to accept our fate? Why don't we escape?"
The bearded man gritted his teeth and suggested.
Iron Goat said helplessly,"
"Nuoding City's nobles have several Spirit Grandmasters, and our most formidable is only a nineteenth ranked Spirit Master, how can we be their match.”
The short-bearded man clenched his fists tightly. If the forging of an iron ore could affect their lives, no one would feel good.
Gu Beichuan heard their conversation and was moved.
This was how the world was. The strong were respected, and the lives of the weak were worthless.
In the eyes of the strong, the weak only had the chance to be deprived of their lives.
Coincidentally, Gu Beichuan was most keen on helping the weak.
He had helped the girl slap Song Qing in the face not because he was kind, nor because he liked to pretend.
It was because he was not used to seeing so-called nobles with backgrounds casually killing other people's lives.
"Everyone, get ready to disperse. If you can run, run. I will bear the fault of the iron ore alone.”
Tie Niu stood up with the support of a chair and said weakly. He did not want to see everyone's family destroyed.
"Iron Bull, you're treating me like an outsider. You're my brother and we'll share the burden.”
Iron Goat patted Iron Bull's shoulder, full of brotherhood.
"Yes, we are not afraid of death. Brother Iron Bull, if there is anything, we will shoulder it together.”
"That's right. If we fight together, we won't die. What's the big deal?"
The short-bearded man, who had wanted to escape, was also full of loyalty.
"You guys."
Iron Bull's eyes were red and teary. He didn't expect his brothers to be so loyal. He hadn't treated them in vain all these years.
They had forged iron together for more than ten years, and they had forged a group of brothers who did not want to be abandoned or at ease.
Gu Beichuan was slightly touched by their friendship.
Back on Earth, the word 'righteousness' was a luxury.
There were very few brothers who could go through thick and thin together. Even he could only be used by others.
Those spirited young men who claimed to be loyal to their brothers were actually the ones who ran away first when they encountered trouble. They only knew how to bully the younger ones by themselves and put on a funny show of standing up for others.
Some of the young men were shameless and hateful. They pretended to collect protection fees from primary school students and weak groups. They only knew how to bully the weak. When they met someone tough, they only knew how to pretend to be a grandson. They did not have the arrogance to bully primary school students.
Therefore, in Gu Beichuan's previous world, true righteousness was never a verbal sign. Those who spoke the word 'righteousness' were mostly young men with spirit.
"If there's trouble, we'll shoulder it together. Short Beard is right. At most, we'll just have to pay with our lives.”
Gu Beichuan was ready to help them.
Gu Beichuan walked up to the half-forged iron sword and raised the hammer on the stove, intending to smash the half-forged iron sword.
Before his hammer could fall, he felt his arm being held in mid-air by a strong hand.
"What do you want?"
The swift Iron Goat was cold and furious.
"What can I do if I want to swing a hammer? Cast iron swords to remove impurities."
Gu Beichuan answered fearlessly.
"Brat, I've long been unhappy with you. You want to forge a sword with such small arms and legs? Are you trying to make me laugh to death? I see that you don't even understand the knowledge of forging swords, yet you still dare to boast shamelessly here.”
The short-bearded man sneered. He walked up to Iron Goat and said,"
"Brother Goat, hand him over to me. I want to make this kid's skin split open.”
"Iron Goat, let him go.”
Iron Bull shook his head, indicating for Iron Goat to let go.
Iron Goat didn't blame Gu Beichuan. He just treated it as a curious child, but he was surprised by Gu Beichuan's strength in swinging the hammer.
One had to know that Iron Bull's strength wasn't small. This iron hammer was extraordinarily heavy, and a child couldn't lift it at all. Even he had to use a trace of soul power to lift the iron hammer, but the youth in front of him could use it lightly.
Iron Goat released his hand, but Gu Beichuan had no intention of leaving. He stared at Iron Bull with a serious expression and asked coldly,"
"Do you really want to die for nothing? Not fighting for a chance of survival."
"I don't have the ability to repair weapons.”
Iron Bull was surprised by Gu Beichuan's question, but he replied helplessly.
"Would you believe me if I said I could repair artifacts?”
Gu Beichuan raised Iron Bull's hammer. His eyes were serious as he wanted to see Iron Bull's attitude.
If Iron Bull believed him, he wouldn't mind helping him.
Under the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Technique, what kind of impurities could not be expelled?
Eighty-one smithing, nine nine into one.
"If you can repair weapons, then I can go to the sky. As long as Brother Bull says the word, I'll punch this kid out.”
The short-bearded man mocked Gu Beichuan.
A frail youth could forge a weapon. As someone who had forged weapons since he was young, he would definitely not believe it.
"Can you stop blabbering? No one else has any reaction, but you're the one who blabbered from the beginning to the end."
If it weren't for your loyalty, I…would have chased you out long ago. You're so noisy that my ears hurt…
