Chapter 357: Detailed Discussion

After Li Dashou finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan nodded, older people are different from young people, they will not easily talk to the fullest.

"Let's get ready. Wu Zhongyuan said to Li Dashou.

Li Dashou nodded yes, and turned to look at his two sons, who understood, and were busy separately, preparing to open the furnace.

Li Dashou didn't know that the Bird Clan had such a secret place to smelt metal, but all the metallurgical utensils here were made by the Bird Clan, and his two sons were familiar with these utensils, including the levers and pulleys used to lift the weights.

While the two were busy, Li Dashou asked Wu Zhongyuan in detail about the shape and purpose of the object he wanted to create, as well as the specific size and dimensions.

As the saying goes, a connoisseur will know if there is a shot, Li Dashou is a real connoisseur, the questions asked are very specific, and they are also very targeted, this errand is different from ordinary casting and casting, which is tailor-made for important people, not only to consider the utensils themselves, but also to consider whether the artifacts created are suitable for Wu Zhongyuan.

What Wu Zhongyuan needs is a medium-sized weapon for close use, the sword is the first choice, for whether to make a knife or a sword, Wu Zhongyuan has the idea that it doesn't matter, because he is not good at using a sword, whether it is a knife or a sword, the difference is not very big for him, all he needs is a weapon for close combat, and the role of this weapon is to supplement and assist the bow and arrow long-range attack, with the fire dragon true qi and various spells, the frequency of use of this sword will not be very high.

Determined Wu Zhongyuan's intentions, Li Dashou gave him suggestions from the perspective of a professional, making a sword, the reason is that the sword is more suitable for Wu Zhongyuan to use, and the more specific point is that the knife is a single-edged knife, and the attack method is mainly chopping, which is divided into thick-edged knives and thin-edged knives, the former is suitable for people who are strong and strong, while the latter is suitable for people who lack strength but react quickly to attack.

Wu Zhongyuan does not belong to these two situations, he is more suitable for using a sword, because compared with a knife, the sword is more flexible, there is no attack blind spot when fighting in close combat, although it is modest, the function is more comprehensive, the most important thing is that the sword is not his main means of attack, there is no need to pursue a certain aspect of the strength and leave hidden dangers for attack and defense.

Regarding the shape of the sword, Li Dashou put forward several suggestions, Wu Zhongyuan adopted one of them after thinking about it, as the so-called big and clumsy, the road to simplicity, choose the shape of the long sword in the Qin and Han dynasties, there is no need to make it too fancy, and the blood groove does not need to be too deep, it is said that the sword is the king, the knife is the king, and the sword itself is not a very heavy weapon.

As for the weight of the long sword, he set a two catties and eight taels, which is lighter than the commonly used long sword, and the reason why such a weight is considered in many ways, one is that he is not used to too heavy long swords, and the other is that he does not want to waste too much meteoric iron, the golden dark iron is only nine catties and nine taels in total, if you use all of them, Dasha will not be able to receive its radiation, which will affect Dasha's lifespan.

In addition to the long sword, you also need to make arrowheads, the density of golden dark iron is greater than ordinary metal, if you use other materials to make arrows, the size of the arrows must be adjusted, otherwise it will lose balance. But Wu Zhongyuan used an iron tree for the arrow shaft, and the density of the iron tree is also very large, so there is no need to reduce the weight of the arrow, the normal size is fine, but the weight is much heavier than ordinary arrows, the weight of an ordinary arrow is about fifty grams, that is, about one or two, and according to Li Dashou's estimate, the weight of the arrow made of iron tree and golden dark iron can reach two taels or four coins, that is, one hundred and twenty grams, which is almost two and a half times the weight of ordinary arrows.

Wu Zhongyuan calculated in his mind that the total weight of the thirty-six arrows and quiver was about ten catties, which was not light, but it was not heavy either.

As for the shape of the arrow, Wu Zhongyuan did not use a triangular shape, but used a traditional conical arrow, which is not very sharp, but can carry more force.

At this point, it's not over, we have to discuss the various unknown changes that may occur after the arrow is infused with fire spiritual energy, although the iron tree is tough, but it is a wood genus after all, as we all know that the fire is gold, Jin Kemu, although the fire spiritual energy he emits is infused into the arrow, after shooting the arrow, the arrow will transfer the fire energy it bears to the arrow shaft, Wu Zhongyuan is worried that the arrow shaft will be deformed and damaged after carrying the fire energy.

This is indeed a tricky problem, but Li Dashou quickly thought of a solution, Wu Zhongyuan brought back the lantern before there is a piece of silver-white metal, this metal was originally covered in the upper part of the oil lamp, he does not recognize this metal, but Li Dashou recognizes that this is a metal called cold iron, from the cold land of the extreme north, can block the fire, can be put between the arrow shaft and the arrow a little, so that the fire dragon true qi he emitted will be condensed in the arrow, the arrow shaft only needs to bear the strength and does not need to bear the fire.

Many details were agreed upon one by one, and finally Wu Zhongyuan thought of another question, "If you can get enough Xuanjing, is it possible for the arrows shot to return to the quiver?"

Li Dashou pondered for a long time and shook his head slowly, "It's difficult." ”

"I want to hear about it. Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Li Dashou suffers from eye disease and always sheds tears, hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, he first raised his hand to wipe his eyes, and then said, "After a piece of armor is built, warriors who want to wear it need to drop blood to recognize the master, only in this way can the armor pieces be self-possessed, but those many armor pieces are self-attached, and they are not influenced and influenced by the warrior's divine sense." ”

Wu Zhongyuan nodded, what Li Dashou meant was that the armor doped with amethyst had similarities with the Qinglong armor, and they were not 100% controlled, and the warriors who wore them could only control their hanging and unloading, but could not control one of the pieces of armor to make a specific action.

Li Dashou said, "The difficulty in this matter is that we can't control where these arrows will be attached after the blood drops." ”

Although Li Dashou didn't say it thoroughly, Wu Zhongyuan knew what kind of concerns he had, and it was very simple to let the arrows fly at him, but the problem was that he couldn't control where they would fly, and if he didn't fly to the quiver and flew to his heart, he would shoot himself to death.

"We'll talk about it later," Wu Zhongyuan said, "how long is it expected to take to build weapons and arrowheads?"

Li Dashou thought for a while and said, "If you can successfully melt the golden dark iron without other variables, it can be completed within ten days." ”

"Do you need me to stay and help?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

Li Dashou shook his head, "I know that adults have a lot of experience in the way of casting, but at the moment, there is no need for adults to do it themselves, adults go by themselves, if there is an obstacle, I will inform the adults for advice." ”

Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "Then I'll leave for a few days first, try to find some Xuanjing back, I'll leave Hu Cong here, and then take off the golden Xuaniron on its neck after you are ready, and after the casting is completed, the remaining part can be recast with copper belts and re-trapped." ”

Li Dashou nodded in agreement.

"When do you expect to take off the copper belt around its neck?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Seeing Li Dashou's puzzled face, Wu Zhongyuan explained, "If this trip goes well, I may use it to carry heavy loads." ”

"Why didn't you take off the copper belt first?" asked Li Dashou.

Wu Zhongyuan did not explain to Li Dashou the importance of the golden dark iron to Dasha, but said, "Take off the copper belt after two days." ”

Li Dashou nodded.

After Chong Li Dashou said his hard work, Wu Zhongyuan turned around and left, got out of the cave, and said to Li Bei, who was sitting outside the cave, "I want to go out, you go with me." ”

If Wu Zhongyuan said 'you go with me,' Li Bei might still hesitate, but Wu Zhongyuan didn't have an inquiring tone, so she didn't know how to answer, she just looked at Wu Zhongyuan with inquiring eyes.

"I'm going to a very dangerous place, you go with me, and if I have an accident, someone can bring the news back......"

These days are full of trivial things during the day, and I can only write at night, and the number of words is insufficient, so please forgive me.
