I don't have soul skills, I can kill Douluo

Ding-ding-dong-dang, before even getting closer, Lin Manshan could hear the rhythmic tapping sound.

The hammer sign, the exterior wall made of adobe, when you get closer and look inside, you can see several brick and timber houses next to each other, and the forge room connected to the chimney is full of sparks.

Several blacksmiths were working together, and not far away was a wooden frame filled with various iron tools.

This is a small blacksmith shop, but it has everything you need.

Lin Manshan walked straight in and walked towards the forging platform.

"Kids, it's dangerous over there. Stop quickly and don't get close!" Seeing Lin Manshan walking towards the forging room, a shirtless and burly man who was communicating with a customer next to the wooden frame quickly ran over and looked down at Lin Manshan who had stopped and turned around with a slight frown. , "Where are your adults? Didn't they tell you that it's dangerous to be near the forge room of the blacksmith shop?"

In this kind of civilian gathering area, there are indeed many children who let their children come to buy iron tools, but it is rare for them to do so at such a young age. The temperature of the forging furnace in the forging room is extremely high, and there are a lot of debris around it. Children are too young and ignorant to fall in, and the consequences will be disastrous.

Moreover, the child in front of him was still wearing the uniform of Notting College. If something happened, their blacksmith shop would not be able to handle it. "Could it be that a phoenix emerged from the grass nest? How could there be students from Notting College in a place like this?"

The man was scared in his heart and couldn't help but think.

"Hello, uncle!" Lin Manshan greeted politely and said seriously: "I'm here to apply for an apprenticeship."

"Kid, stop making trouble. This is not the place you should be. Judging from your age and your appearance, you must be a student who has just joined Notting Academy not long ago, right? Being a soul master is a great thing, hurry up Go back. Study hard and become a true soul master as soon as possible." The man smiled and spoke softly. He could tell that the child in front of him was born as a commoner like him, and he must be short of money, otherwise he would not come to a place like this to apply for a blacksmith apprenticeship.

Blacksmithing is the lowest profession on the mainland, and people with a little status look down upon it.

"Uncle, my martial spirit is a sword. The teacher said that if you want to use this kind of martial spirit well, you need to exercise your arm and waist strength. I think blacksmithing is a good way, which can not only exercise your body, but also make money." Lin Manshan pointed out. He said in a sincere tone, "Besides, I am very strong. I have watched the blacksmith in the village forge since I was a child. Although I still don't know how to cast iron, I can still hammer pig iron without any problem."

"Uncle, if you don't believe it, I can hammer a piece of pig iron on site right now for you to see. Besides, I am a work-study student at the college and I have time every afternoon."

The man was stunned after hearing this. He felt that what Lin Manshan said made sense. Blacksmithing is inherently physical work. The more you work, the more you eat. It also really exercises one's waist and arm strength. Look at his guys. Which one is not big-bodied, thick-waisted, thick-butt, and powerful?

However, can such a young child lift a forging hammer? Still hammering pig iron?

"Boss, why don't we let this kid have a try." The blacksmiths in the forging room also stopped their movements at this time and started cheering with interest.

One of the blacksmiths looked at the man, nodded slightly, and slowly walked forward with a forging hammer.

"Kid, if you can swing this forging hammer in my hand, I will let you try it."

"Yeah." Lin Manshan nodded quickly, quickly took the hammer from the blacksmith's hand with his right hand, and waved it up and down easily.

"What a guy, you can swing it with one hand."

"It's different that Wuhun has soul power. A child has such great power."

"He is born to be a blacksmith."

"." In the forging room, all the blacksmiths were stunned and praised.

"Okay, kid, I'll accept you as my apprentice." The man said with a smile. Regardless of whether Lin Manshan can really temper pig iron or not, with this strength, he is still an excellent seedling. He should be able to get started with a little teaching. If he can train a soul master blacksmith through hard work, and if word spreads about it in the future, his face will shine, and maybe he can bring better business to the store.

It's not a loss-making deal by any means.

"Introduce yourself, my name is Tieshan, and this next to me is my brother Tiezhu." The man smiled and led Lin Manshan into the forging room, introduced the blacksmiths one by one, and then together they took down the forging table from the fixed wooden pier. He readjusted the height and picked up a piece of red-hot pig iron from the stove and put it on it. "Aman, come and try hammering this piece of pig iron. Let me see how your foundation is?"

After that, he took the blacksmiths and stepped aside.

"Okay." Lin Manshan nodded, put the hammer aside, and quickly took off his school uniform, revealing his short sleeves and white arms. Compared with the blacksmiths present, his arms were obviously much smaller. But from the slightly bulging muscles above, you can still see the traces of long-term exercise. Picking up the hammer again, Lin Manshan looked at the iron block and slowly raised the hammer.

The next second, he swung down violently.

"Dang-dang-dang" violent and rhythmic impact sounds sounded one after another.

"Is this!?" The two Tieshan brothers and the blacksmiths looked more and more focused. There was a certain illusion in their eyes. They felt that what Lin Manshan was wielding was not a hammer at all, but a big knife, a knife. Another strike was like a big wave in the strong wind. Each wave was higher than the other, and the force became heavier and heavier. With an indomitable momentum, each strike was extremely decisive.

"How good is this kid?" Although several customers onlookers didn't understand blacksmithing, they could tell from the eyes of the blacksmiths that Lin Manshan's skills were not simple.

After a while, Lin Manshan stopped and wiped the sweat from his forehead. The iron block on the casting table has cooled down a lot at this time, and the overall size has also shrunk a lot.

"Aman, are your hands okay?" Tieshan walked forward quickly, looked down at the iron block, opened his mouth, then quickly raised his head, staring at Lin Manshan's red right arm as if he were looking at a monster, so The domineering and fast-paced training method undoubtedly requires extremely high arm strength. Even he didn't dare to do it like this, but Lin Manshan not only dared to do it, but he also seemed to have no trouble doing it.

"Uncle Tieshan, I'm fine, I'm just a little hot." Lin Manshan said with a smile.

Hearing this, Tieshan couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and then sighed, "Aman, the blacksmith who taught you the hammering technique must be a master forger. To be honest, I feel that only the legendary random cloak hammering technique can compare with it. ”

He can be sure that this is not the random cloak hammering method, because the random cloak hammering method emphasizes using force, but Lin Manshan's method is more fierce and domineering, hammering to the end, no, it does not feel like hammering, but chopping. , I'm cutting, and I'm going to do my best to the end. Finally, part of the recoil force is relieved by inertia, so as to reach the point where it stops.

Retract the action with less recoil to protect the arm while achieving consistent hammering.

In his opinion, for such an exquisite technique, the blacksmith must have thought that Lin Manshan's natural power would make him a good blacksmith, and he wanted to teach it to him, so he was willing to let him watch it. After all, if he just watched it a few times, he would never believe that his tempering level could reach this level. It's a pity that I can't figure out how to use it specifically. Tieshan sighed secretly.

He also knew that the other party must have been told not to spread such forging techniques.

As a person with professional ethics, it was not easy for him to take the initiative. Even if he wanted to find one, he would have to find the blacksmith master.

Hey, at my age and qualifications, the other party will definitely look down on me.

"However, although Aman's force-generating skills are excellent, his knowledge of forging materials and experience in using force when swinging the hammer are obviously insufficient. He hammered in many wrong places and wasted his energy. The master only taught Aman The most basic blacksmith's forging skills should be laying the foundation for Aman. Now that Aman's foundation is sufficient, the subsequent forging process of finished products has not been taught."

"If I teach Ah Man what I know, wouldn't I be considered half a master? From now on, Ah Man will be famous all over the world. Oh, I can play it for the rest of my life."

"Especially Aman is also a soul master!"

"One day I will go to the Gengxin City Blacksmith Association to participate in the blacksmith conference. My face will look bright."

Thinking of this, Tieshan's face smiled even more.

"Ah? I just fight according to what I know. I don't understand the rest." Lin Manshan said a little cautiously.

"It's okay, the master will tell you the rest in the future." Tieshan smiled, and then looked solemn, "Aman, although your forging techniques are exquisite, your forging experience is quite lacking, especially in The understanding of forging materials, and the judgment of the point of force when swinging the hammer. These all need to be accumulated slowly in the process of practice."

"From now on, you can learn from me and my uncles in this shop. If you encounter someone who doesn't understand, don't be polite, just ask. In addition, your salary is the same as other uncles for the time being, one Gintama coin per month? What if? If business is good, we will add commission."

"Thank you, Uncle Tieshan." Lin Manshan nodded repeatedly, "However, Uncle Tieshan, the college has an opening ceremony tomorrow, and I may not be able to come until the day after tomorrow."

"Aman, it turns out you are a freshman. Then aren't you a talent this year?" Tieshan looked surprised and secretly sighed that Lin Manshan was hardworking and willing to endure hardships. At the same time, he was even more convinced that Lin Manshan was a good young blacksmith and must be taught well!

He smiled and nodded slightly, "It's okay. I'll come back when your college affairs are settled."

"Well, Uncle Tieshan, I will go back to the academy first."

After saying goodbye to everyone, Lin Manshan put on his school uniform and walked out of the blacksmith shop, heading straight towards the college.

I bought a bedding on the way and ran back to the dormitory carrying it on my back.
