The World of Pirates

Chapter 11
On October 1496, 10 in the lunar calendar, East China Sea, Hongmu Island.

In the blacksmith shop in the west of Redwood Town, the sound of "clinking" iron for several years was rarely heard today. Li Cha sat on a piece of red iron ore outside the blacksmith shop, closed his eyes and meditated.

Several sailors in the blacksmith's shop were choosing swords, and the corners were full of swords, which were defective products produced by Li Cha during the past few years forging swords.

For Li Cha, those swords were either inappropriate in size, or inappropriate in terms of radian, center of gravity, material, etc., and were randomly thrown in the corner by Li Cha.

At this moment, Li Cha's waist was stabbed obliquely with a Taidao, the scabbard was made of black wood, the appearance was simple, and there was no discernible quality.

"Brother Li Cha, can the price of this knife be cheaper? We often buy it from you." A sailor asked Li Cha while holding a knife.

"15 a piece, no counter-offer." Li Cha said without looking back.

Hearing Li Cha's answer, the sailor who was trying to negotiate the price curled his lips and muttered to his companions:

"Obviously it's just the blade, and we have to make the scabbard and handle ourselves, and it's so expensive."

Of course Li Cha didn't have the time to make scabbards and hilts for a bunch of "defective products" one by one, so the swords selected by the sailors were actually just blades with stems attached.

The companion beside him didn't answer the call, and was concentrating on choosing.

So what if you think it's expensive, I still don't want to buy it.In Li Cha's eyes, it is a defective product, but to these sailors, it is considered a rare good knife.

Moreover, even if you need to configure the scabbard yourself, compared to their original weapons, the price of 15 is very cheap.

The sailor just saw that Li Cha was young, and wanted to see if he could give Li Cha a discount.

······
"Brother Li Cha, why didn't I see you strike iron today?" When paying the money, the sailor who had just bargained asked Li Cha.

In the past, when they came to the blacksmith shop, Li Cha would always be blacksmithing. Unexpectedly, this time Li Cha even turned off the stove and sat on a stone to drink milk.

Li Cha took Bailey and replied:

"Not only today, but I will not forge in the future."

It took several years, and finally, not long ago, the peak work that can be achieved under the existing conditions was forged, and it was inserted in Li Cha's waist at this time.So there is no need for him to continue to forge.

Countless times of trial and error, a little bit closer to Li Cha's expectations, and finally relying on a little bit of luck to achieve the effect that satisfies Li Cha.

Recalling this period of blacksmithing career, Li Cha also has lingering fears. If possible, Li Cha would never want to blacksmith again.

"Brother, do you want to go to the tavern? I'll buy you a drink." After completing the transaction, the sailor seemed in a good mood and wanted to buy Li Cha a drink.

"No, I still have to go to the beach, you guys go first." Li Cha replied.

"Okay, see you later." Several sailors waved goodbye to Li Cha.

After seeing off the sailors, Li Cha got up and walked towards the beach.

Li Cha's eyes were calm and his steps were steady. No matter what he did under his feet, his upper body remained motionless. The left hand holding the knife was like a rock, and the right hand drooped naturally, as if he could draw the knife at any time in any situation.

Walking unhurriedly like this, we arrived at the beach in a short time.

Clearing away distracting thoughts, Li Cha slowly pulled out the sword:

Slightly longer and slightly curved than ordinary sabers, the slender, high-waisted saber posture is like the curvature of the waist and buttocks of a peerless beauty.

The dense pear muscle, the boiling and air intertwined and connected at the edge of the blade, just like the boiling and turbulent river water.

With the elegant blade, this Taidao made by Li Cha is not like an ordinary weapon at all, but as breathtaking as the rough sea.

Because it is used by himself, there is no engraved inscription on the stem of the knife. When preparing to name it, Li Cha thought it was troublesome, so he directly named it "Wu Ming".

Putting on a middle stance, Li Cha started his daily practice.

Now every time Li Cha's vibrating moves, he will mobilize the bones and muscles of his whole body, and every time he swings a knife, there will be a loud sound of wind and thunder, that is the sound of a long knife cutting through the sound barrier.

And every time the knife is raised and lowered, it is always at the same position, without the slightest deviation, showing that Li Cha has absolute control over his body!
Three hours later, Li Cha completed [-] Su Zhen.

[It would be great if there is an opponent, at least it can let me experience the force value of this world. 】Li Cha drew his knife and exhaled a foul breath, and couldn't help but start thinking.

In the past few years, Li Cha has been practicing swords alone, and he still doesn't know what level his swordsmanship is.

I thought that there would be pirates coming to the island to plunder, but they didn't appear for a long time.If there is no suitable opportunity, Li Cha is also ready to go to sea to find an opponent.

While thinking, Li Cha walked into the sea, and then dived to the bottom of the sea.

Li Cha continued to dive until the depth of about 800 meters under the sea, and Li Cha didn't stop.After several years of continuous training in the sea, Li Cha can now withstand the water pressure in this position and move freely.

However, because Li Cha has been eating here for the past few years, there are very few fish swimming in the nearby sea area.

It's not that Li Cha ate up all the sea fish in the vicinity by himself, but that those fish have learned to be smart and no longer approach the surrounding area of ​​Hongmu Island.

So now Li Cha needs to swim a little farther to fish, which is one of the reasons why Li Cha is going to go to sea. It takes Li Cha a lot of time to go back and forth every day.

Li Cha kept swimming in the sea, swinging his knife casually from time to time, chopping off the sea fish that swam past him, then threaded it through with a rope and tied it around his waist.

Suddenly, Li Cha seemed to feel something, and Li Cha looked down.A shadow more than ten meters long was swimming in the sea about 100 meters below Li Cha's body. Li Cha noticed the turbulence of the water.

【Hmm, there seems to be a big guy. ] Li Cha's eyes froze.

Untie the fish from his waist and let it fall to the bottom of the sea. After feeling the movement below him, Li Cha began to float up.

And after the shadow at the bottom ate the fish that Li Cha dropped in one bite, it was still not enough. The few small fish did not fill its stomach, but instead aroused its appetite.

Smelling Li Cha's scent, it also swam up, intuitively telling it that there was a large piece of delicious food waiting for it to enjoy.

Li Cha's head floated out of the sea, and after taking a breath, he turned back into the sea again.

I saw a sea king that was as thick as a bucket and more than ten meters long was biting towards Li Cha with its mouth wide open.

Through the sunlight through the sea, you can see the densely packed teeth in its mouth gleaming coldly. It must be uncomfortable to be bitten.

But Li Cha didn't panic at all. When the teeth of the sea kings were about to bite his waist, Li Cha stepped on the water with his left foot, leaned his body to the right, and passed the sea kings' jaws by a tiny margin.

Afterwards, Li Cha drew the saber out of its sheath with his right hand, swung the saber horizontally, and a ray of saber light passed over the heads of the Neptunes, then Li Cha put the saber back into the sheath, and surfaced again.

The Neptune still maintained its upward trend, and after rushing out of the sea at a height of four or five meters, it slammed down again, but when it fell, its head was gone, and only its body was still twisting unconsciously.

The water splashed Li Cha's face, but the smile on his face was even bigger.

"Good luck, eat chicken tonight!"

Yes, that's right!This kind of Neptune is chicken-flavored. After eating it once before, Li Cha has been obsessed with it...
