Chapter 19 The Benefits of Being a Soul Master

Arriving at the blacksmith shop, before entering, Cheng Xiao heard the rhythmic knocking sound coming from inside.

"Is this the blacksmith shop?" Xiao Wu looked at the hammer sign hanging on the blacksmith shop curiously, her big eyes flashing brightly.

Cheng Xiao nodded lightly and walked straight in with Xiao Wu.

As soon as you enter the door, a rush of hot air hits your face, which is the high temperature generated by the blazing flames of the foundry.

"Children, it's very dangerous here. Stop quickly." Seeing two children walking into the blacksmith shop, a shirtless man who was hammering pig iron quickly came to Cheng Xiao and Xiao Wu and asked, "Sir, your family." What? Didn't they tell you that the blacksmith shop was dangerous?"

There are a large number of iron tools and sundries in the blacksmith shop, and there is also a forging furnace with extremely high temperature. In order to prevent children from being naughty and causing accidents, the blacksmith in the blacksmith shop generally does not let children come to the blacksmith shop, and will only let them buy things. The adults come in.

"Hello, uncle, I want to make two daggers, is it possible?" Cheng Xiao said.

"Building a dagger?" The big man glanced at Xiao Wu, who was a little nervous next to Cheng Xiao, and immediately smiled and said: "It's no problem to build something, but you need to ask an adult from your family to come and share the drawings, materials and styles of the dagger. Tell me and pay for the dagger."

Hearing that adults from his own family were still required to come, Cheng Xiao frowned slightly and said, "If I am the only one, can't I build it?"

Hearing this, the big man was slightly startled, and then explained with a smile: "Of course not, kids, you look like you are still in school, right? It would be better to let your parents come forward for things like making weapons."

"Uncle, I understand what you mean." Cheng Xiao took out a golden soul coin and the soul master's handbook from his arms, and gestured to the big man, "Uncle, I am a soul master now, and I can get from Wuhundian received a gold soul coin as a gift, which is a gift from the soul master and can prove my identity. "

"Soul master? Such an older child is a soul master?" The big man thought to himself, and solemnly took the soul master's note that Cheng Xiao took out.

The Soul Master's Codex is a piece of metal as big as a palm. This special metal can only be used by the Spirit Hall, and it is also the exclusive proof of becoming a Soul Master.

Taking the cold metal piece, the big man looked at it carefully.

After a while, the big man returned the soul master's note to Cheng Xiao, and as for the golden soul coin, he accepted it.

"Kid, I'll take over your job." The big man agreed happily, and then asked: "Then do you have the drawings of the dagger and the material requirements?"

"The materials used to make it are different, and the price will go up a bit, but don't worry, as long as the style is determined, I will build it for you as quickly as possible."

Listening to the big man's words, Cheng Xiao suddenly felt a little confused. Although he had the style of a dagger in his mind, he didn't know what kind of material would be useful. After all, he didn't understand this aspect, and he only needed a dagger. Just to adapt to the skill of throwing daggers.

Seemingly seeing Cheng Xiao's embarrassment, the big man smiled kindly and said: "Well, kid, I won't accept the gold soul coin for now. I'll come back when you get the design drawings, including some materials. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Cheng Xiao subconsciously scratched the back of his head and said, "No, uncle, do you have any paper here?"

"Do you want to design the drawings on the spot?" The big man was stunned for a moment and said.

"Yes, it's too much trouble to go back. I happen to know the style of the dagger I want to make, so I can tell you about the materials." Cheng Xiao said.

"Okay, then I'll ask the guy to go out and buy some. You guys wait here for a while." The big man nodded and went to find a guy to buy pen and paper.

After a while, the man came back with a pen and paper, and Cheng Xiao began to draw according to the pattern of the dagger in his mind.

Xiao Wu looked at Cheng Xiao who was concentrating on the drawings, her big eyes full of curiosity. She didn't expect that Cheng Xiao, who was also a work-study student, could be so good. Even when he was concentrating on drawing the drawings, he was not different from the others. Same.

…………

As time passed, Cheng Xiao drew the drawings faster and faster. At this moment, he was completely in the state. When the last detail on the drawings was added, the sky also darkened.

"Huh, it's finally done." Cheng Xiao took a deep breath and wiped the sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand.

"Let me take a look." The big man picked up the dagger drawing drawn by Cheng Xiao and couldn't help but his eyes lit up. "What a beautiful dagger design, but if you want to reproduce it perfectly, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money." time."

Cheng Xiao said: "It doesn't matter, as long as it can be done."

"Okay, let's follow your design." The big man nodded and said, "As for the manufacturing material, use black iron. However, if you use black iron to build it, it will take some time."

"No problem, uncle, if you want to build a good weapon, waiting is essential." Cheng Xiao shook his head and said, "Then look at how much it costs."

"Kid, I won't ask for more from you. I'll give you five gold soul coins for each of your two daggers. How about that?" the big man said.

"Okay, then I will give you one gold soul coin first, and I will give you the remaining nine coins in nine months." Cheng Xiao said.

"Cheng Xiao, you can also use my gold soul coin." Seeing that the two reached a cooperation, Xiao Wu suddenly said: "I am also a soul master now, and I can also receive a gold soul coin subsidy every month. If I help you, it will only take four months. Anyway, I don't eat much, and the money for cleaning the garden every day is enough."

Hearing this, Cheng Xiao was stunned. Looking at Xiao Wu, who looked generous but reluctant, his heart moved slightly and said, "Okay, just think of it as me lending it to you."

While speaking, Cheng Xiao handed another gold soul coin to the big man.

After paying two gold soul coins, Cheng Xiao and Xiao Wu walked out of the blacksmith shop accompanied by the owner of the blacksmith shop. I don't know if it was because of Xiao Wu, before leaving, the big man actually reduced the cost of the gold soul coins on his own, and the original ten coins became nine coins.

Cheng Xiao didn't understand it, but the big man didn't want to say more. He just kept talking to himself, saying that he should be nice to the girl, and a gold soul coin is not a small amount of money.

Of course, Cheng Xiao also confirmed with the boss the time for casting completion, which was about a month. After all, their casting skills were not very high. It was not easy to cast such a complex pattern for the first time, and it was made of expensive black iron.

"Thank you, Xiao Wu."

Walking on the dimly lit street, Cheng Xiao thought about it and thanked the girl with his hands behind his back.

"I helped you so much, and you just said thank you to me." Xiao Wu's voice was a little dissatisfied, but Notting City was a small city. It was dark now, and the lights on the street were dim.

Cheng Xiao couldn't see the expression on Xiao Wu's face, but he could hear the displeasure in her voice, and immediately whispered: "Then how do you want me to thank you? Treat you to delicious food?"

"Delicious?" Xiao Wu was a little excited, but when she thought of the gold soul coin she had just lost, she pouted and said, "One delicious meal is not enough."

"One meal is not enough, then two meals." Cheng Xiao chuckled.

"Only two meals?" Xiao Wu stopped and raised her tone.

"Well... one month then?" Cheng Xiao thought for a moment and said.

"One month is not impossible." Xiao Wu suddenly came to Cheng Xiao, and in the dim light, she stretched out her hand to pinch Cheng Xiao's cheek, and then muttered to herself: "What? He is obviously a boy, how come his skin is better than mine."

Hearing Xiao Wu's muttering and being pinched by her again, Cheng Xiao subconsciously stretched out his hand, pinched Xiao Wu's face, and imitated her words: "What? He is obviously a girl, how come his skin is worse than mine."

"Ah! Cheng Xiao, you are so bad, how can you imitate me!"
