Chapter 10 Visiting the Prison
Dang——dang——
The sound of forging iron continued to echo in the yard.
Mrs. Wei Xue was sitting on the bed, sewing a quilt with needle and thread, with a little sadness in her eyes.
In fact, listening to the sound of hammering every day makes her feel extremely at ease.
But every time I think of Wei Tieshan, I can't help but feel sad.
The quilt in her hand was sewn for Wei Tieshan.
Tomorrow she was going to visit Wei Tieshan in prison and would bring this quilt in by the way.
After all, the weather is cold, and the conditions in prison are not as good as at home. There is probably not even a warm quilt.
"It's been so many days, but I don't know if Master Sun and the others have caught that evil cultivator!" Wei Xue murmured in her heart.
However, at this time, at the gate of the county government office.
Sun Lin turned around and looked at the short, fat middle-aged man in official uniform with a sword hanging on his waist. He bowed his hands and said, "Master Zheng, please stay!" "
Okay, Daoist Master Sun and Daoist Li, please go slowly!" The young man said.
He is Zheng Cong, the magistrate of Yushui County, Qingzhou Prefecture.
"Farewell!" Sun Lin and his junior brother bowed their hands again.
He immediately left the county government office and walked all the way towards the south gate.
When the two passed by the Wei family's blacksmith shop, Sun Lin couldn't help but stop.
I turned around and took a look from a distance, seeing the flag with the word "iron" floating in the wind, and sighed secretly.
Immediately he continued walking towards the city gate.
They are preparing to leave Qingzhou City today and return to their sect to resume their duties.
At this stage, they tried their best to track down the evil cultivator, but found nothing.
The evil cultivator is deeply hidden and has probably left this place long ago. It is not easy to find him.
Now that the deadline for them to go down the mountain has expired, it's time to go back and resume their lives.
I am afraid that the matter of evil cultivation can only be shelved for the time being.
Sun Lin originally wanted to say goodbye to Wei Xue and Wei Yi.
But thinking about it, I don’t know how to face them.
If they knew they couldn't find evil cultivators, they might be disappointed.
Think about it instead of letting them face this harsh reality now.
It is better not to tell them for the time being, at least to keep a glimmer of hope in my heart.
The figures of Sun Lin and his junior brother gradually disappeared into the distance.
The streets are still busy with traffic, and the blacksmith shop's flag is still waving.
Wei Yi was immersed in blacksmithing and had forgotten the passage of time.
And in order to forge a new sword as soon as possible.
Wei Yi even left dinner to his aunt to cook.
After dinner, he immediately started forging the sword again.
After cold forging and scraping, the shape of a sword had already taken shape in his hands.
"Shitou, add some more coal and make the fire a little brighter!" Wei Yi said to Shitou.
Stone was also very motivated and immediately started adding coal to the blacksmith furnace.
Then pull the bellows to blow the fire extremely vigorously.
When Wei Yi saw that the fire had reached the temperature he needed, he stopped the stone.
Then he put the sword body in the blacksmith's furnace to heat it, and also threw a few crystal-like stones into it.
This stone is called Qiang Stone, a mineral unique to this world. Wei Yi actually doesn't know the specific elements in it.
Just based on the skills you have mastered, you can release some special substances after heating this stone in the fire.
This substance will gradually penetrate into the sword body during the heating process, which can greatly increase the hardness and toughness of the sword body.
In fact, this is somewhat similar to Wei Yi's chemical heat treatment method in his previous life.
"Stone, go and rest, leave the rest to me!"
For the next heat treatment, Wei Yi needed to control the temperature accurately.
Maintain within a certain temperature range for sufficient time.
Only in this way can the best results be achieved.
But this process cannot be done by stones, only he can do it himself.
Wei Yi stayed by the blacksmith's furnace until late at night. When the heating time was enough, he went back to sleep.
Because then all you have to do is wait for the sword body to slowly cool down with the fire.
After returning to the room, Wei Yi simply wiped his body and went to bed to rest. Lying on the bed, he pulled out the system panel again and looked at it.
Name: Wei Yigengu
Qualifications: Extremely
Poor Lifespan: 42 years old (+28 days)

upgrade not yet started) His cooking skills, he cooked dinner as early as yesterday After that, he was successfully promoted to the third level. This promotion allowed him to gain a lot of very valuable cooking skills and experience. He is already at the level of a chef. In addition to more than ten sauce preparation methods and more than thirty delicacies cooking methods, he also acquired superb knife skills and food carving skills. Not only that, he also gained a very good special ability - knowing the taste of the marrow. Knowing the taste by eating the marrow does not mean that the marrow tastes so good that you want to try it again after eating it. It means that after tasting a food, he can remember its taste very clearly. At the same time, you can also identify which ingredients, seasonings, and approximate proportions are used in a dish. This can then help him deduce the cooking method and reproduce it. In other words, with this ability, Wei Yi can copy almost all the dishes he has eaten. Maybe he can even be better than his predecessors. "When I become a ninth-grade swordsmith and earn some capital, I can consider opening another restaurant." Wei Yi thought to himself. Unknowingly, he fell into sleep with a beautiful vision for the future. A night of silence. When the first ray of sunshine in the morning shone into the yard, Wei Yi's figure appeared at the door of the room again. He stretched, then fetched water from the vat and washed his face. The charcoal fire in the blacksmith's furnace has long been extinguished, but there is still warmth inside. Wei Yi used an iron clip to take out the sword body, and after it was completely cooled, he polished it with a grindstone.
After observing it carefully, he saw that the sword had the water wave texture he was expecting.
"It should be successful!" Wei Yixin said, with a smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
But the heat treatment of the sword was not over yet, he still needed to heat and quench it again.
After breakfast, Mrs. Wei Xue went to the county government office with the quilt she made for Wei Tieshan and the meat buns she specially made.
She stuffed some silver coins into the yamen officer's hands and then took the things into the cell.
When seeing Wei Tieshan, Wei Xue, who had always been strong, couldn't help but shed fragile tears.
Wei Tieshan lost a lot of weight and was dirty, but he seemed to be in good spirits.
There were some hidden wounds on his body, which were all caused by beatings during the previous interrogation, but they were not life-threatening.
Since the visiting time was very limited, Mr. Wei Xue did not express too much sentimentality.
Wiping away his tears, he quickly told Wei Tieshan about the current situation at home.
So that Wei Tieshan can rest assured.
Wei Tieshan was also surprised to learn that Wei Yi had become a real blacksmith.
But most of all I am happy.
"Great, now that Yi'er is here, I can finally rest assured!" Wei Tieshan let out a sigh of relief.
During this period, the most painful thing for him was not the impending death.
But I care about my wife, daughter, nephew and stone.
He knew very well that without him, the whole family's sky would collapse.
Fortunately, now that Wei Yi is here, his hanging heart can finally be settled.
"Tieshan, Taoist Master Sun of Yuntian Sect said that he will definitely catch the evil cultivator. When the time comes to prove your innocence, you can go home!" "Yes!" Wei Tieshan nodded and forced out a bitter smile
.
In fact, he knew better than anyone else that he might never get out of this cell again.
Boss Liu from Baoxingxing would never let him go easily.
Fortunately, now that Wei Yi is supporting the family, even if he dies, he can rest in peace.
The visiting time came soon, and Wei Xue left the cell reluctantly.
Before leaving, she took care of things again.
I hope those government officials can treat Wei Tieshan better.
