Chapter 245: The Birth of the Sword (1)
Dingdang, Dingdang..., among the crisp and rhythmic knocks, a bunch of sparks splashed everywhere, and circles of transparent ripples continued to explode from the anvil, causing the rolling heat to emit in all directions. And in the tingingdang knocks, the metal ingots on the anvil are becoming more and more tough and denser, and the blood-colored luster on the metal surface is becoming more and more lighter and more uniform, gradually penetrate into the texture deep in the metal...
After a long time, Luo Yuchen hit the hammer, but no clear sound of gold and iron clashing sounds. Instead, he only heard a dull sound of "Du", and the true energy attached to the hammer was not leaked at all, and was absorbed by the metal ingots. Luo Yuchen's face moved, and his slightly dissipated eyes instantly became agile: "Finally, I have refined another piece..." [bsp; �
More than two months ago, when he just broke through the realm, Luo Yuchen's dantian was basically filled with true qi. However, now, at least one-third of the space has been empty in his dantian. However, this does not mean that Luo Yuchen's internal strength has declined. On the contrary, this is a huge step forward - relatively speaking, his true qi purity has increased at least twice, and the total amount of true qi has also increased by more than one-tenth! In addition to the role of the new internal strength mental method, a large part of the reason is that the "blacksmith" has lived a "stop" for almost twenty-four hours in the past ten days...
"Why, Brother Luo, your preparations are completed?" Sha Shoucheng's voice suddenly sounded, followed by footsteps. Turning around, Luo Yuchen saw Chen Yong and others running over: "Haha, as expected, I just said, the sound of ironwork disappeared. This naturally means that the work here has come to an end..."
"Hmph, if I hadn't told you that the last batch of supplies Brother Luo had asked for was delivered last night, could you still have such a clever plan?" I have to say that Chen Yong and Meng Dong were probably in conflict with each other. As long as they got together, they rarely had to quarrel.
Although Luo Yuchen's physical strength and true energy have recovered, the mental fatigue caused by long-term boring labor is not so easy to eliminate. At this time, he really didn't want to hear the noise of these two people, so he quickly interrupted: "Why are you all here? Is there nothing else in the gang?"
"Haha, how can some trivial matters be important to witnessing the birth of the peerless sword?" Sha Shoucheng smiled, "Brother Luo, don't you know. In order to make your sword come out soon, Chen Yong and others have organized several collective procurement operations these days. Not only in the time and space of our Ming Dynasty, many cities such as pig iron medicinal materials were sold out, but even the other time and space were the same. Many brothers were sent to sweep the goods."
"Oh, no wonder, more than a hundred medicinal materials and thousands of kilograms of metal ores can be collected in such a short time!" Luo Yuchen nodded, but also knew that Sha Shoucheng and his team's actions were not just for his own strength, but also for the purpose of letting himself take the lead and verify the effect of "blood exercise forging". So Luo Yuchen was not polite, waved his hand and said, "Okay, since you are more anxious than me, come and help!"
"Well, the preliminary preparations have been done, and all the metal materials have been trained. The next step is to melt the alloy. This process does not have much technical content, and I don't need to keep injecting true energy. Therefore, I'll give you a chance. I'll go and take a break and adjust my state. After you melt all these metal materials into a furnace, then call me!" As he said that, Luo Yuchen showed a proud smile, and then he really ignored it...
"Damn, really?" Seeing Luo Yuchen walking out of the door with a quick pace and disappearing from his sight, Sha Shoucheng and the other two looked at each other, all looking at each other. After a long time, Li Feng shrugged, and when he walked over, he picked up a note from the frame containing the finished metal ingots to check it. Soon after, he sighed and shook his head with a wry smile: "It seems that we really hit the gun this time..."
Sha Shoucheng and others came forward to take a look and saw that there was a note in each frame containing the metal ingot, which marked the name, melting point and order of addition. No wonder Luo Yuchen said that there was not much technical content, just follow the tips on these notes step by step. What he had to pay was nothing more than some sweat. After looking at each other with a wry smile, the few people had no choice but to divide the work and cooperate, add fuel to the fuel, pull the bellows to the bellows, look at the heat, and then they were so busy that they were sweating...
After returning to the room, Luo Yuchen, who was already in a state of ease, took a shower and changed his clothes, fed and rested. He slept until dawn the next day, and then exercised and adjusted his condition. It was not until dusk that the time was almost over, and he returned to the exclusive blacksmith shop. At this time, Sha Shoucheng and the other four were already dark and tired. In the middle of the blacksmith shop, a pot of viscous metal solution had been formed for a long time in the largest furnace.
"Oh, Brother Luo, you're finally here. Our work has been completed for a while. If you don't come again, we will not be able to hold on!" It's very rare. Chen Yong did not argue with Meng Dong again this time. After hearing this, he also cried out weakly: "Yes, yes, this iron-smashing job is really something that ordinary people can do..."
Luo Yuchen naturally knew the taste of staying by the scorching furnace for more than ten hours or even one or two days. However, he didn't say much, but just took a step to 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 smiled with satisfaction: "It's not bad, the metal solution that can be used should be enough! Okay, turn on the furnace!" Hearing this, even Sha Shoucheng was excited and couldn't help but repeat loudly: "Okay, turn on the furnace and bring the prepared mold!"
The hot molten iron flowed down slowly, burning the surrounding air into twists, and the gap in the mold that had been prepared was filled little by little. As it turned out, Luo Yuchen's estimate was very accurate. After the entire mold was completely filled, a furnace of molten iron was almost at the bottom of the furnace, and some irregular metal bumps gradually appeared.
In fact, due to the time of addition and the temperature deviation, at least 70% or 80% of the metal ingots prepared by Luo Yuchen had not melted, but were entangled together, forming these irregular metal bumps. Obviously, these strange metal bumps have been rewritten and basically will not have much value.
However, this is not possible. After all, the conditions are simple and everyone is inexperienced novices. Luo Yuchen is already very satisfied with being able to fill the mold. Of course, after the mold is filled, Luo Yuchen did not waste the remaining thin layer of iron. Instead, he took a special mold again and poured them into more than a dozen flying knives the size of a palm...
"Okay, turn off the fire!" The blazing metal solution was already wrapped in thick molds, and the temperature in the blacksmith shop immediately dropped. Luo Yuchen then clapped his hands with satisfaction, and smiled at the dusty Sha Shoucheng and others, "Okay, it will take at least ten hours to cool down the sword embryo. You can go back and rest first, and come to see me tomorrow morning to complete the final work!"
"Okay, let's go back to bed first." Sha Shoucheng and others looked at each other, helped each other and walked out the door, "Oh, by the way, Mr. Chu and Yuan Bin all said they were coming over to participate in the scene of your peerless sword being born. You might as well send them a message and ask them to rush here now..."
Early the next morning, when Sha Shoucheng, who had basically recovered, came back to Luo Yuchen's residence, there was a jingling sound of hammering and hammering. After tacting it with a familiar touch, they realized that Luo Yuchen had moved out the largest anvil and started construction in the yard of the blacksmith shop. Seeing them coming in, Luo Yuchen just raised his head and signaled it a little, but his hands had no pause at all. He was still slowly turning the slender iron bars on the anvil, and then he repeatedly beat the hammer regularly...
At noon, Mr. Chu brought Chu Tao, Chu Jiang and others over. Soon, Yuan Bin also brought a few strong and dull players over there. The small courtyard was immediately filled with them. However, more than a dozen or twenty people were crowded together, but they could not hear any whispering sounds.
