Chapter 125 The Ability of the Tarsal Maggot
Blacksmith Qi was also well-informed, and he recognized this at a glance as the famous useless monster.
"Why did you buy this thing?" Blacksmith Qi asked in confusion: "You can't be deceived, right? How many taels of silver did you spend?"
"Fifty taels." Jiang Lin said.
Blacksmith Qi took a breath and sighed: "Next time you go shopping, ask someone to go with you. The monster rotten cow can be sold for twenty taels at most, and no one may be willing to take it."

Jiang Lin was quite happy at first, but when he heard this, he suddenly became unhappy. He only sold it for twenty taels?
Then wouldn’t it be a big loss for me?
"Twenty taels are a loss!" Blacksmith Qi said: "This thing is too yin-y, so you can't use it at all. You have to throw it away after buying it."
"That's not necessarily the case." Jiang Lin said: "I want to use it to integrate it into weapons and see what effect it can have."
"The effect is that no one can use the weapon, and no one dares to use it." Blacksmith Qi said.
But Jiang Lin still insisted, and Blacksmith Qi couldn't say much, so he only asked him to wait until there was no one in the shop before going.
Otherwise, some apprentices have never learned the oven method and may not be able to withstand the negative energy.
Jiang Lin responded and threw the rotten cow on the ground.
When night fell, the blacksmith and apprentices came back and were a little surprised to see this monster.
The apprentices didn't understand and ran to watch the fun, but were immediately dragged back by the masters.
"That's a monster, a rotten cow. Is it going to kill you if you run so close?"
"Who brought this thing here? Isn't it a trick?"
Jiang Lin came out of the house, dragging the beast that looked like a calf but was rotten with a wisp of gray gloom coming out from time to time towards the blacksmith shop.
Only then did everyone know that he had brought it.
The blacksmiths who spoke earlier were a little embarrassed.
Although he didn't say anything anymore, he was thinking in his heart that Master Jiang was too young after all.
Although his skills are good, his knowledge is too little, and he is afraid that he will be tricked by others.
Especially when they learned from Blacksmith Qi that Jiang Lin spent a full fifty taels to buy this monster beast, everyone became even more sure.
"I remember someone who had a classic book of records of monsters?" Blacksmith Qi asked.
"I have a copy over there." A master blacksmith stood up and asked, "Are you going to show it to Master Jiang?"
"Let him see it, so as not to suffer this kind of loss again in the future." Blacksmith Qi said.
"What about now? Is he going to make weapons out of rotten cow? Master Qi, won't you advise him?"
"I tried to persuade him, but he insisted on it." Blacksmith Qi sighed and said: "Forget it, you will learn a lesson from the experience. What others say may not be useful based on personal experience, so let him go."
At this time, Jiang Lin had already dragged the rotten cow to the blacksmith shop.
Based on what he had heard before, he took a knife, gouged out the seven or eight weird eyeballs on the rotten cow, and smashed them into powder with a hammer.
It's quite strange to say that it was quite stiff when it was first taken off, but after a few hits, it turned into a thick, dark gas, but it didn't gather together.
[Ordinary yin energy can increase the yin-cold characteristics of the casting (the hidden power of blood can be stimulated)]
Jiang Lin tried poking it with his hand. It was cold to the bone and made him feel uncomfortable.
He stopped being curious and started the fire.
It is still based on iron, which is the cheapest general-purpose material. Although the final weapon grade may not be high, it is very suitable for Jiang Lin now.
After all, he was just using it to test some ideas, and had no intention of producing any earth-shattering magic weapon right away.
Put the pig iron into the furnace to quickly remove impurities and improve the quality, then take it out and directly quench and cool it down.
【Quality improved by 15%】
Without paying much attention to the increase caused by quenching, Jiang Lin put the pig iron into the gray gas formed by the rotten cow's eyeballs.
If you want to use this monster to melt weapons, you must use the cold forging method.
That is to say, the iron block after cooling down is directly knocked hard.
Compared with traditional heating and then tempering, it is more laborious, but the toughness will be very good. Usually this method is used to make armor. Although Jiang Lin has never used it before, the principles are the same and there is nothing strange about it.
Holding the fifth-grade sledgehammer in hand, he began to hammer the pig iron wrapped in gray gas.
Ding Dong——
Ding Dong——
A unique monotonous rhythm began to sound in the blacksmith shop, and reminders drifted across the field of vision from time to time.
[The quality of pig iron with many impurities has been improved by one percent]
【Hundred Refining Level +1】
With the sound of knocking, the shape of the pig iron continued to change, and the gray gas seemed to be forcefully hammered into the inside of the iron block.
Gradually, the color of the pig iron begins to change.
From the original grayish-white color, it turned into jet black and shiny, which was obviously of high quality.
But the changes did not stop. As the number of tempers increased, tiny gray lines began to appear on the surface.

By the time Jiang Lin stopped hammering, the entire piece of pig iron had been beaten into a long strip.
Use iron scissors to cut off a section, then switch to a small hammer to continue hammering.
Not long after, this section was turned into an arrow.
The pig iron at this time was very different from the original.
The fingers are long and short, with dense gray lines on the surface. I don’t know whether they were squeezed by tempering or born this way.
The lines are stacked on top of each other, as if there are several eyes on the arrow.
The lines are mixed with seven bright entropy lines at the same time.
The second-grade arrows are rare in the entire Daqian, let alone the blacksmith camp.
As the most common consumable, no one would improve the quality of arrows to such a high level. It is just a waste.
Jiang Lin's thinking was different from that of ordinary blacksmiths, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Reaching out to pick up the arrow, he felt the cold air becoming stronger.
It's obviously very small, but it feels very heavy.
In the field of vision, the information of the arrow changes accordingly.
[Arrows of average quality, possessing the ability of tarsal maggots]
Jiang Lin was a little confused. Since it had a side effect, it should have stimulated the hidden bloodline power of the monster Fu Niu.
But what is the ability of the Tarsal Maggot?
Since you don’t understand it, you will know after you try it.
He put the arrow on the arrow shaft, took a bow and arrow, and drew it for half a month.
Staring at the grass target twenty steps away, Jiang Lin suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
In his field of vision, a faint gray line loomed, connecting him to the straw target in front of him.
What is this?
Jiang Lin was a little puzzled, and subconsciously lowered his bow and arrow to check, but when his hand slipped and let go, he only heard a "clang" sound.
As the bowstring rebounded, the arrow shot out quickly.
The bow and arrow had obviously been lowered, but the arrow rubbed the ground and turned around. Under Jiang Lin's stunned gaze, it easily penetrated the grass target.
What's going on?
Jiang Lin hurriedly stepped forward and saw a lot of gray gas left on the grass target, like squirming insects burrowing inside.
The originally yellow-brown grass target quickly turned gray, and black and gray objects continued to fall down with a slight touch of the hand.
Jiang Lin's heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot. Looking at the arrow that fell not far away, an idea popped into his mind.
"The so-called maggot ability of the tarsal bone, doesn't it mean that it directly opened the self-aiming lock for me?"
