Chapter 1174

"You mean the burning black stone?" Xiao Keduo widened his eyes and looked at Li Zhenbang in disbelief.

"Yes, haven't you guys seen it? Logically speaking, it shouldn't be right!" Li Zhenbang frowned. It's hard to say anything else, but coal should be a relatively common type of thing.

"The black stone you mentioned cannot be used at all. We all call it the devil's curse."

"After discovering that this kind of thing can burn, some dwarves tried to use it. As a result, many people died for no reason, and the reason has never been discovered."

"Even if they didn't die, many people had terrible consequences, such as paralysis, incontinence, aphasia, blindness, and even dementia. That's why everyone calls this black stone the devil's curse."

"None of us dwarves are afraid of death. Some dwarves even use their own flesh and blood and even their souls to create peerless artifacts."

"But this kind of black stone will not only kill people, but also can't be used at all. We tried to use it before, but there were too many problems. The most obvious problem is that the smelted iron becomes very brittle. When forging It may break directly, so it is not usable at all."

"Zhenbang, I advise you to avoid contact with such things in the future, there is no benefit!" Xiao Keduo shook his head and persuaded. He thought that Li Zhenbang could give him some good advice, but he didn't expect it to be such a suggestion.

Hearing Xiao Keduo's words, Li Zhenbang was thoughtful. He had seen the room where the dwarves made weapons. It was relatively closed and the ventilation was not particularly good. If coal was used in such an environment, it would easily cause carbon monoxide poisoning.

Carbon monoxide poisoning can cause dizziness and hallucinations in mild cases, and sequelae and even life-threatening in severe cases.

Moreover, not all coal is suitable for crafting. There are too many impurities in ordinary coal. These impurities are incorporated into the iron embryo during smelting, which will only pollute the iron embryo.

The most suitable for smelting and forging should be coke. Coke is extracted from coking coal, but it is also possible to forge directly with coking coal.

"Is there any coal mine nearby...it is the mine cursed by the devil." Li Zhenbang did not retreat because of Xiao Keduo's reminder, but asked.

"Zhenbang, did you hear me? It's useless! Even if you get back your so-called coal, no one is willing to try it!" Seeing that Li Zhenbang didn't listen to his advice, he wanted to try it , Xiao Keduo persuaded again.

"You won't help me? If you don't help me,

I can only fight by myself! Don't you want to create stronger weapons to impress others? "Li Zhenbang looked at Xiao Keduo in surprise.

"But the devil's curse is not a joke, it will really kill people!" Xiao Keduo looked at Li Zhenbang with a troubled expression.

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, you'll be fine! I'll be with you!" Li Zhenbang solemnly promised.

"Besides, have you ever seen a person cursed by a demon to death?" Li Zhenbang asked rhetorically.

"This... the older generation has passed it down like this, and no one has tried it again." Xiao Keduo shook his head.

"Then have you ever said that a summoned beast mage can swing your master casting hammer thirty-eight times?" Li Zhenbang asked.

"This... no one will pay attention to the summoned beast mage?" Xiao Keduo whispered.

"It is said that the summoned beast mage used to be the most powerful magician in the world. No one dared to provoke him easily. Everyone wanted to curry favor with him! But now? No one looks down on the summoned beast mage!" Li Zhenbang continued.

"I……"

"So, what is handed down in history is not necessarily meaningful, and what is handed down by the older generation is not irreversible!" Li Zhenbang interrupted Xiao Keduo who wanted to speak.

"I can't say no to you! Well! I do know that there are a few demon lands that produce demon curses around me. I will take you around. But I can state in advance that if I use demon curses to build, I may not necessarily Help you." Xiao Keduo said hastily, obviously he has a certain fear of this devil's curse.

"Okay! I don't force you. You just need to take me to your so-called devil's land. I want to have a field trip." Li Zhenbang nodded in agreement.

At worst, he built it himself. As long as he finds coking coal, he is confident that he can make a good quality weapon.

I dare not say that it can be compared with weapons made by masters, but there is no problem surpassing mass-produced weapons like apprentices.

Li Zhenbang is not a procrastination person. He knows Xiao Keduo from the dwarves, plus Master Fenglan. Do you need to rest more, drag him to find the so-called devil's land.

Xiao Keduo was very helpless, the Devil's Land had always been a place where dwarves kept a respectful distance, but for the sake of this crazy brother, he could only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.

Fortunately, the rumors did not say that you will be cursed if you go to the Devil's Land, but that you may be cursed if you use the Devil's Curse, otherwise Xiao Keduo might not dare to go there.

"That's a land of demons!" Xiao Keduo pointed to a piece of land in the distance and said to Li Zhenbang.

Looking at the relatively flat land in the distance, Li Zhenbang nodded, and then released the emperor from the Houtian bag, asking him to investigate and bring back some coal along the way.

Although Tu Di still looked like a child, he seemed to be even fatter. Obviously during the time he was with Li Zhenbang, Li Zhenbang did not treat him badly.

Xiao Keduo glanced at Emperor Tu in surprise, but he didn't say anything. He knew that Li Zhenbang was a summoned beast mage, and there was nothing surprising about some strange summoned beasts.

Not long after, the Earth Emperor, whose body was covered with black marks, returned, holding a dark stone in his arms.

After Xiao Keduo saw the dark stone, he took a few steps back subconsciously, and then looked at Emperor Tu with some worry. This black stone seemed to be much heavier than this little guy, he was really afraid that this little guy would not be able to hold it and hit that pink little foot.

"That's right, thank you for your hard work!" Li Zhenbang took the big stone with one hand, patted Tudi's little head with the other hand, and then put the big stone on the ground.

Tudi rubbed his eyelids with his fingers, stuck out his tongue at Li Zhenbang and made a face, then disappeared.

"Zhenbang, be careful, this thing is very evil!" Xiao Keduo looked at Li Zhenbang looking at the black stone, and hurriedly reminded.

"Why don't you stay far away?" Li Zhenbang couldn't help smiling, if the coal is all evil, then what else is not evil?

"It's fine here, I'm fine, I have to accompany you!" Xiao Keduo saw this kind of black stone for the first time, and he was actually very curious in his heart, but he was a little afraid of the curse of the devil in his heart, so he stood a little Stretch your neck and look at it from a distance.

"Bang!" Li Zhenbang raised his right hand and smashed the large piece of coal, then picked out a piece of coal of a suitable size and held it in his hand, then manipulated the fire element in the air to ignite it.

"Zhenbang, be careful! It... it's on fire!" Seeing the coal burning, Xiao Keduo rushed to Li Zhenbang's side, and kicked Li Zhenbang's hand without any explanation, kicking the coal flew out.

"Zhenbang, let me just say that this thing is evil! Look, it's all burning by itself. If I'm a step behind, maybe you will burn too!" Xiao Keduo said with lingering fear.

Li Zhenbang didn't expect that Xiao Keduo would rush over without hesitation because he was afraid that he would be injured, which moved him very much. You must know that Xiao Keduo was very afraid of coal. But as an informed person, he felt that Xiao Keduo's actions were very funny, so he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Zhenbang, let's go back! You don't have to worry about the oil. If you really want to worry about it, you should think about what to do in the future!" Xiao Ke looked at Li Zhenbang and wanted to pick up another piece of coal , hastily grabbed him and persuaded him.

"Old Xiao, be safe and don't be impatient, don't worry, I'm fine!" Li Zhenbang comforted Xiao Keduo, and then picked up another piece of coal, and the coal ignited again.

"Be careful! It's caught again!" Seeing the coal burning again, Xiao Keduo yelled loudly, wanting to repeat the same trick.

"Don't..." Li Zhenbang only had time to say a word, and hurriedly dodged to avoid it.

"I ignited it, I want to study it, Lao Xiao, don't mess around, I'm fine!" Li Zhenbang shouted hastily, dodging Xiao Keduo's attack.

Xiao Keduo's outstretched foot stopped in the air again, looking at Li Zhenbang solemnly, "What you said is true?"

He didn't see Li Zhenbang using fire stones or anything like that, so he was very suspicious.

"Why am I lying to you? Not all coal can be used for smelting. I need to study it carefully." Li Zhenbang explained.

"Okay! Then be careful, if you feel something wrong, throw it out or call me." Xiao Keduo's eyes were always cautiously staring at the red coal in Li Zhenbang's hand.

"I see!" Li Zhenbang shook his head helplessly.

"Ah!" Li Zhenbang sighed and threw the coal on the ground.

He then asked the Earth Emperor to dig out a lot of coal from different places. It turns out that the coal here is not coking coal. It is no problem to use it for cooking and cooking, but it is not suitable for smelting because there are too many impurities.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Xiao Keduo asked cautiously.

"It's okay, the coal here is not suitable for smelting, it's only suitable for heating and cooking." Li Zhenbang shook his head, "Take me to the next place!"

"What? Do you want to go to the next place?" Xiao Keduo felt a little dark in front of his eyes, and shouted a little bit broken.
