Chapter 3: The hammer works really well
The experience gained from yesterday's thirty strikes, and with the help of skill Yunjin Chengfeng, at least two of the ten strikes will be able to hit the point.
Jiang Lin didn't want to show his "talent" too abruptly, so naturally it was best to practice in public and occasionally show off his skills.
If it were anyone else, Zhao Yankui would definitely not agree, but after all, Jiang Lin was the most talented apprentice in the fire-burning area.
Even if the hammer blow yesterday was not very good, I am still willing to give it a chance.
"Okay, but you have to be careful and don't hurt yourself or others. If I or other masters think it's not okay, we have to stop immediately!" Zhao Yankui said.
"Thank you, master!"
Seeing Jiang Lin walking away with a happy face, Zhao Yankui couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
I thought to myself yesterday that I thought this guy was quite stable, but I didn't expect him to be so eager for quick success.
Although the skill of burning fire has been mastered, and it stands to reason that one can come to the tempering area, but it is not that simple to carry a sledgehammer.
Which of the apprentices in the training area didn't wait on the sidelines for a year or two to develop their wrist strength before they dare to start using it.
This kid is probably confused by his talent in fire-making skills and thinks that other skills are so simple.
If this continues, I am afraid that if I have to aim too high, I will eventually be forgotten by everyone, and my good talent for making fire will be wasted.
Jiang Lin didn't know that his impression in the master's heart had been completely destroyed, but he still started the fire, opened the furnace, added charcoal, and lit the fire as always.
After a long time, he ran to the hammering area with two pieces of reddish pig iron, handed them to the two blacksmiths, and looked at them eagerly.
The blacksmith masters all knew that Jiang Lin was looking for Zhao Yankui before, so they handed him the hammer handle and warned him at the same time: "Be careful. This hammer seems light, but it bounces back as heavy as a stone. Some apprentices have been hit by it." Hit your head with a hammer.”
Jiang Lin had already hammered thirty times last night, so he had some experience. He nodded and said, "Thank you, Master Qi, for reminding me. I will be careful."
Blacksmith Qi originally wanted to scare Jiang Lin into retreating, but he didn't expect the young man to be so stubborn, so he had no choice but to shake his head and retreat.
No one is willing to hold an embryo for Jiang Lin. No matter how talented he is in making fire, he is just a young apprentice who has only been here for less than a month.
The friendship is not so good that he involves himself for the sake of his personal future.
Jiang Lin didn't care if anyone was holding the embryo, as long as the hammer hit the anvil, he would gain proficiency.
He grasped the handle of the hammer with both hands in tandem, raised it high, and struck the anvil hard.

After a "dang" sound, Jiang Lin's hammer hit the edge of the anvil without any surprise and slid down.
The whole person was led downwards and almost hit the anvil.
Blacksmith Qi next to him was so frightened that he subconsciously reached for the hammer.
Jiang Lin stood up straight and smiled at him: "Master, I promise you can hit me twice."
"You haven't learned how to use force, and you don't know where to hit it. You won't be famous if you rely on brute force to smash it!" Blacksmith Qi said.
Jiang Lin doesn't know this, but the blacksmith shop is like this. Before you reach a certain level, even if you want to learn, no one is willing to teach you.
Otherwise, if you learn everything at once, how can you still enjoy the sense of superiority of a master?
Zhao Yankui was so optimistic about Jiang Lin, but he also kept silent.
Each industry has its own rules, which cannot be broken easily.
Jiang Lin nodded slightly, raised the hammer again, and said, "I know, I just want to see if I can understand anything."
Blacksmith Qi laughed dumbly. With your incorrect exertion posture, it is impossible to comprehend anything.
He wanted to say something else, but he noticed a sharp look.
Turning around, he saw Zhao Yankui glaring in this direction, immediately shut his mouth and stood aside. Zhao Yankui's meaning was very clear. If he didn't let Jiang Lin suffer a little, how could he understand that there was no shortcut on the blacksmith's path.
No matter how talented you are, you still need the guidance of a master to get through it step by step!
To put it simply, Jiang Lin had to bow his head, recognize his master as his father, and keep his kindness in his heart. This is the way to cultivate a team in the craftsmanship industry.
There was another "dang" sound, and this time Jiang Lin's landing point was slightly better, at least he didn't slip to the ground.
[Skill 2: Tempering Lv1 (Proficiency 34/100)]
Blacksmith Qi quickly took the hammer and said: "Okay, okay, let's light the fire first, this piece of embryo is getting cold."
Jiang Lin didn't say much, turned around and left.
But not long after, two more pieces of pig iron were delivered, asking for the opportunity to hammer twice.
But every time he knocked, the people's hearts were frightened, and Blacksmith Qi almost retreated ten feet away.
It was not until the fifth time he went to see him off that Zhao Yankui, who had always been grumpy, lost his patience and walked over.
He planned to scold Jiang Lin a few harsh words to make Jiang Lin restrain his thoughts of reaching the sky in one step and stay in the burning area to temper his temper.
At this time, Jiang Lin raised the hammer for the ninth time, and Blacksmith Qi stayed away from him for fear of being affected.

When Zhao Yankui was halfway there, Jiang Lin's hammer had already fallen.
He seemed to notice something, and when he looked up, he was startled.
I saw that young man who was slightly thinner than the others, with firm eyes and an unusual aura exuding from his whole body.
The sledgehammer raised high came down quickly, like a heavy weapon falling from the sky, and hit the center of the anvil just right.
Dang——
This sound was louder and crisper than the previous eight hammers.
A dazzling spark flew, making the young man's tough face turn a fiery red.
Blacksmith Qi next to him was stunned for a moment. Did the hit hit the right spot?
Damn it!
Zhao Yankui also suspected that Jiang Lin was deceived. After all, he was using the wrong force and posture, so how could he hit the right spot?
However, after the tenth hammer was struck, sparks were still flying everywhere. Even Blacksmith Qi next to him couldn't help but said: "Good boy, these two hammers seem to be something!"
For serious blacksmiths, hitting the right spot is a basic skill.
But for an apprentice who has never been exposed to tempering, it is even more difficult.
The hammer floats everywhere, and it can hit anything when it falls. It's normal that it just misses the point.
Jiang Lin was not excited at all by Blacksmith Qi's praise, and his tone remained humble: "I'm still far behind other masters. Thank you Master Qi for the opportunity."
After returning the hammer to the other party, Jiang Lin turned around and returned to the fire area.
At this time, Zhao Yankui also came to the front. He lowered his head and looked at the anvil. Blacksmith Qi next to him came over and whispered: "Master, I think Jiang Lin is a good boy. How about I come and teach him?"
< br>
Zhao Yankui raised his eyelids: "Can you teach better than me?"
Qi Tiejun was startled, then smiled: "That's all I said, I don't mean anything else."
"Do your job well, why talk so much!" Zhao Yankui scolded.
Qi Tiejun laughed dryly, picked up the hammer and continued working, but felt quite regretful in his heart.
Even though Jiang Lin had been hammering for a long time and only got two hits, his talent could already be seen.
If I had asked him to come over in time after yesterday's blow, Zhao Yankui would not refuse.
It's a pity, now that Zhao Yankui has seen the trick, he naturally won't let him go easily.
