Chapter 245 The Legend of the Sword
Jingle, jingle... In a crisp and rhythmic knock, a fluffy spark splashed around, and circles of transparent ripples kept bursting from the anvil, making the rolling heat sipate in all directions. And in the jingling sound, the metal ingots on the anvil are getting tougher and denser, and the blood luster on the metal surface is also getting lighter and lighter, more and more uniform, and gradually penetrating into the texture deep in the metal...
After a long time, Luo Yuchen hammered down, but there was no clear sound of gold and iron. Instead, he only heard a muffled sound, and the true gas attached to the hammer did not leak at all, and all of them were absorbed by metal ingots. Luo Yuchen's face moved, and his slightly lax eyes became flexible in an instant: "Finally, it's been refined again..."
After closing the red iron ingot, Luo Yuchen relaxed a little. Regardless of whether the ground was dirty or not, he sat down directly and closed his eyes to start his internal work. After a long time, he took a long breath and opened his eyes with a little smile on his face.
More than two months ago, when he just broke through the realm, Luo Yuchen's Dantian was basically filled with Zhenqi, but now, at least one-third of the space in his Dantian is empty. However, this does not mean that Luo Yuchen's internal cultivation has regressed. On the contrary, this is still a great step forward - relatively speaking, the purity of his true qi essence has at least doubled, and the total amount of true qi has also increased by more than one-tenth! In addition to the role of the new internal heart method, a large part of the reason is that the "smith" has been living for almost 24 hours in the past ten days...
"What's the matter, Brother Luo, have you finished the preparations here?" Sha Shoucheng's voice suddenly sounded, and then there was a sound of footsteps. Turning his head, Luo Yuchen saw that Chen Yong and others were all running over: "Haha, sure enough, I said that the sound of hitting the iron disappeared. This naturally shows that the work here has come to an end..."
"Well, if I hadn't told you that the last batch of supplies that Brother Luo wanted was delivered last night, could you still be so clever?" I have to say that Chen Yong and Meng Dong are likely to be eight-character culprits. As long as they get together, they rarely quarrel.
Although Luo Yuchen's physical strength and true qi have recovered, the mental fatigue caused by long hours of boring work is not so easy to eliminate. At this time, he really didn't want to hear the noise of these two, so he quickly interrupted, "Why are you all here? Is there anything else in the gang?
"Ha ha, how can a little trivial matter be important to witnessing the birth of the peerless sword?" Sha Shoucheng smiled and said, "Brother Luo, you don't know. In order for your sword to be born early, Chen Yong and others have organized several collective procurement actions in the past few days. Not only in our Ming Dynasty time and space, but also in the time and space of many cities, such as raw iron and medicinal materials have been snapped up, and even other time and space are the same. Many brothers went to sweep the goods.
"Oh, no wonder more than a hundred kinds of medicinal herbs and thousands of catties of all kinds of metal ores can be collected in such a short time!" Luo Yuchen nodded, but also knew that Sha Shoucheng's behavior was not only for his own strength, but also for the purpose of allowing himself to take a step ahead to verify the effect of "blood refining and forging". Therefore, Luo Yuchen was not polite. He waved his hand directly and said, "Well, since you are more anxious than me, come and help!"
"Well, the preliminary preparations have been completed, and all the metal materials have been trained. Next is the steps of smelting alloys. This process does not have much technical content, and I don't need to keep inputing true gas for a moment. Therefore, I'll give you a chance. I'll take a break first, adjust my state, and call me after you melt all these metal materials into one furnace!" With that, Luo Yuchen smiled proudly, and then really ignored it...
"Damn, are you serious?" Seeing Luo Yuchen walking lightly out of the door and disappearing from sight, the four people looked at each other and looked at each other in con's eyes. After a long time, Li Feng shrugged his shoulders and walked over first. He picked up a note from the frame containing the finished metal ingots and checked it. After a while, he sighed and shook his head with a wry smile: "It seems that we really hit the muzzle this time..."
Sha Shoucheng and others came forward to take a look. They saw that in each box containing metal ingots, there was a note, which marked the name of the metal, the melting point and the order of addition. No wonder Luo Yuchen said that he didn't have much technical content. Just follow the tips on these notes step by step. It is. What they need to pay for is nothing more than some sweat. After looking at each other with a wry smile, there was nothing they could do. At present, they could only work together, add fuel, pull the bellows the bellows, and look at the heat. In a moment, they were so busy and sweated...
After returning to the room, Luo Yuchen, who was already doing nothing, took a shower, changed his clothes, ate and rested. He slept until dawn the next day, and then exercised and adjusted his state. It was not until dusk that it was almost time before he returned to the exclusive blacksmith's shop. At this time, the four of Sha Shoucheng were already dark and tired, and in the middle of the blacksmith's shop, in the largest furnace, a thick metal solution had been formed for a long time.
"Oh, Brother Luo, you are finally here. Our work has been completed for a while. If you don't come again, we won't be able to hold on!" It's very rare. Chen Yong didn't argue with Meng Dong again this time. After hearing this, he also cried feebly: "Yes, yes, this iron work is really not what ordinary people can do..."
The feeling of staying by the hot furnace for more than ten hours or even a day or two is naturally very clear. However, he didn't say anything more. He just stepped to the edge of the furnace and stood beside Sha Shoucheng: "Okay, don't complain. Let me see your achievements first!"
After observing for a while, Luo Yuchen nodded slightly and said with a satisfied smile, "It's not bad. It should be enough to use the metal solution!" All right, open the oven!" Hearing this, even Sha Shoucheng was refreshed and couldn't help repeating loudly, "Okay, open the oven and bring the prepared mold!"
The hot iron water slowly flowed down, burning the surrounding air into twists, and the gap in the already prepared mold underneath was also filled little by little. It turned out that Luo Yuchen's estimate was very accurate. After the whole mold was completely filled, a furnace of iron water was about to bottom out, and some irregular metal pimples gradually appeared at the bottom of the furnace.
In fact, because of the deviation of the time and heat added, at least seven or eight of the metal ingots prepared by Luo Yuchen before have not melted, but are entangled together, forming these irregular metal pimples. Obviously, these strange metal pimples have been refined and are basically not too big. The value.
However, there is no way to avoid it. After all, the conditions are simple, and everyone is an inexperienced rookie. Luo Yuchen is already very satisfied with being able to fill the mold. Of course, after the mold was filled, Luo Yuchen did not waste the remaining thin layer of iron, but took a special mold and poured them into more than a dozen palm-sized flying knives...
"Okay, turn off the engine!" The blazing metal solution has been wrapped in a thick mold, and the temperature in the blacksmith's shop has dropped immediately. Luo Yuchen clapped his hands with satisfaction and smiled at the gray-faced Sha Shoucheng and others, "Well, the cooling of this sword embryo will take at least more than ten hours. You can go back and have a rest first. Come and see me finish my final work tomorrow morning!"
"Well, let's go back to bed first." Sha Shoucheng and others looked at each other and walked out of the door with each other's help. "Oh, by the way, Mr. Chu and Yuan Bin all said that they would come to participate in the scene of your peerless sword. You'd better send them a message and ask them to hurry this way now..."
Early the next morning, when Sha Shoucheng, who had basically recovered his breath, came back to Luo Yuchen's residence, the sound of jingling hammering was constantly echoing. After touching it familiarly, they found that Luo Yuchen had moved out the largest anvil and started working in the yard of the blacksmith's shop. Seeing them come in, Luo Yuchen just raised his head and gave a slight gesture, but the movements of his hands did not stop at all. He still slowly flipped the slender iron bars on the anvil, and beat them with a regular hammer...
At noon, Mr. Chu came over with Chu Tao, Chu Jiang and others. After a while, Yuan Bin also came with a few strong players who applied for dullness, and this small yard was immediately crowded. However, more than a dozen or twenty people huddled together, but they couldn't hear the sound of whispering.
Of course, laymen such as Sha Shoucheng are waiting patiently, but more than a dozen insider players standing on the edge of the crowd have long closed their eyes, shaking their heads and shaking their heads intoxicated in the sound of metal knocks again and again...
