Is this girl cultivating immortality? Yunling finds out!

Chapter 20 I need your comfort?

The next day, the weather was fine. Lu Yu opened the door and stretched his body.

“Ahhh! Ah!”

A dull pain in his chest forced him to hold back his yawn.

Thinking of the inexplicable punch he received last night, Lu Yu sighed helplessly.

"When I was in the Soul Condensation area, I touched you for a long time and nothing happened. Why did you hit me last night just because I touched your forehead?"

Lu Yu rubbed his chest and heard the sound of iron hammering.

Looking up at the yard, I saw the Hong brothers busy at work.

A piece of shell iron as thick as an arm was reduced to the size of a thumb after being hammered and forged.

Hong Tianxi practiced his skills, and the spiritual power in his body gathered in his palms.

Such a rough and burly man was squatting on the ground at this moment, like a skilled woman embroidering, carefully carving the edges and corners of small parts with his fingertips.

Lu Yu tiptoed to the side, not daring to disturb them.

Hong Dibei called out loudly:

"Hey! Master Lu is here!"

"Shh!"

Lu Yu was startled and quickly whispered:
"Keep your voice down and don't disturb your brother."

"Hey! It's okay!"

Hong Dibei waved his hand, then swung the sledgehammer in his hand and struck the iron block in front of him fiercely, saying loudly:

"We blacksmiths gather in the shop all day long to work. Over a dozen people are busy with their own things, so how can we have time to pay attention to what others are doing? If we don't have the ability to concentrate, how can we do this job?"

But he saw Lu Yu still waving at him desperately, signaling him to keep his voice down, and Hong Dibei grinned.

Then he picked up an iron ingot beside him and said:
"Mr. Lu, look!"

As he said that, he threw it straight towards Hong Tianxi.

Lu Yu stared at the scene with wide eyes, regretting that he was too far away and couldn't stop the iron ingot.

It seemed that Hong Tianxi was about to be hit on the head.

"Ding! Clang clang clang."

A dark orange halo circulated around Hong Tianxi, and the iron ingot was bounced away directly after hitting it.

Hong Tianxi, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened, still concentrating on fiddling with the parts in his hands with his head down.

"this!"

Lu Yu was surprised, but saw that Hong Tianxi was still carving parts with one hand, and picked up the iron ingot beside him with the other hand, and threw it at Hong Dibei with his backhand.

Hong Dibei looked at the flying iron ingot without dodging, and his big mouth was still grinning and sneering.

There was a muffled sound of "bang".

The iron ingot was actually stuck firmly to Hong Dibei's body.

"Hey," Hong Dibei took the iron ingot off his chest, put it back to its original place, and said:
"Mr. Lu, you see, it's okay!"

Lu Yu slowly walked up to Hong Dibei, reached out and patted him, and said curiously:
"Is your body a magnet? Can it attract things?"

"What magnet?"

Hong Dibei scratched his head and explained:
"I have dual spiritual roots of earth and fire. After practicing this forging technique, my spiritual power can absorb gold and stone."

Then he pointed at Hong Tianxi and continued:

"My brother has the spiritual roots of wood and fire. Not only can he forge with great force, he can also do some delicate work."

"oh?!"

Lu Yu immediately became interested and asked in detail:

"In other words, you are practicing the same forging technique, but because your spiritual roots are different, the effects you display are also different?"

"correct."

Hong Dibei nodded as a matter of course and replied:
"As long as one has spiritual roots, then all techniques can be practiced. However, the results vary from person to person."

"So that's how it is." Lu Yu suddenly realized.

When he was in the sect in the past, the master only said that he could no longer practice any other skills, but did not explain the reason.

Having this opportunity today, Lu Yu wanted to ask more questions:
"Then if I practice this blacksmithing technique, what effect will it have?"

"you?"

Hong Dibei blinked his little eyes and said:
"Since Master Lu has already practiced the Soul Condensation Technique, he can no longer practice any other techniques. Similarly, Master Lu, we are completely unable to practice your techniques."

"Why?"

"Among all the martial arts in the world, only this Soul Condensing Technique cannot be practiced with spiritual roots of any other attributes. This is common sense, so why should there be any reason?"

Hong Dibei said as a matter of course.

"tsk"

Lu Yu got an unclear answer and felt a little depressed.

Seeing that Lu Yu looked a little lost, Hong Dibei tried to comfort him:
"This soul-enriching technique can only be practiced by cultivators whose five spiritual roots are all of the lowest quality. There aren't many people in the world who can simultaneously cultivate five spiritual roots of the lowest quality! In fact, Master Lu is a true genius!"

It's like throwing dice. The probability of throwing five sixes or five ones at the same time is extremely low.

Lu Yu looked at the man with small eyes and square face in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"You little cutie, you're really good at comforting people!"

While the two were talking, Hong Tianxi had finished his work.

"Mr. Lu, take a look."

A small and exquisitely crafted part was thrown over.

Lu Yu hurriedly took it with both hands and looked at it carefully in front of his eyes.

The lines are clear, there are no cracks or damage, the size is perfect, and there are no burrs. It is even more perfect than those produced by precision equipment.

"Excellent, excellent! Such a perfect sear was made so quickly! At this rate, it should only take three days to complete!"

This Carl 98 relies on the stimulation of spiritual power, not bullets.

Therefore, compared with the original guns in the previous life, it is much simpler and more convenient.

The reason why Lu Yu was very familiar with the structure of this gun was that he liked to use this gun the most in a game he played in his previous life.

Therefore, he spent a lot of time that should have been used for reading and studying to think about these things.

I used to think that since I didn’t study hard, I would end up in poverty when I got old.

But things are unpredictable. I saved a little girl but ended up traveling through time.

Now the knowledge that was originally useless actually came in handy.

Is this what it means when good people are rewarded?
Lu Yu smiled helplessly, carefully put away the parts in his hand, then took out a drawing from his arms and said:

"Since the construction period has been shortened, we have time to study this."

The two brothers of the Hong family have been making boring things like swords, spears, and halberds since they were young.

But ever since entering this courtyard, he has been amazed by Lu Yu's various imaginative and ingenious designs. Now, what he is looking forward to is what the final product will look like.

Now that they saw the other party had taken out a new gadget, they immediately became interested and leaned over to carefully examine the object in the picture.

"Mr. Lu, this place seems very thin?"

Hong Tianxi pointed to a place in the picture and asked.

Lu Yu nodded and explained:
"This is called a propeller, and it must be made thinner."

"Then why is this place empty?"

Hong Dibei also pointed to a place in the picture and asked.

"Oh, I'm going to place a magical weapon here, so I left a groove."

"Well, what is this ingenious creation called?"

Lu Yu lightly brushed the blueprint and replied:
"Drones."
