Chapter 14: Hammering
The temperature in the square began to rise, and the cold air of the Iron Country seemed to be starting to heat up, and now the whole square was silent, and all the contestants were putting the finishing touches on the metal. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoTime passed slowly in tranquility, as if time had stood still, and the onlookers were not only impatient, but watched intently, as if they had come to learn.
Indeed, every year during the competition, many blacksmiths and blacksmiths come here to observe other people's technical techniques, so that they can help improve their skills after returning home, and many outsiders are very eager to find their favorite forges, even if the other party cannot become a master, but as long as his skills are outstanding, then he can also choose him to create exclusive weapons for himself.
At noon, the forgers with three assistants all ate and rested, this is the benefit, the auxiliary forgers can help them keep an eye on the furnace, they don't need to do everything themselves, but the Heavenly Dance God can't rest, he has to keep removing other impurities from the quenching, and he also has to regularly stir the metal solution to purify the purest soft iron to the greatest extent.
As soon as noon passed, Celestial Dance Jinzo announced that the quenching was complete, and he poured the metal solution of soft iron into the mold, and then put a new batch in the furnace, allowing Sasuke's shadow clone to continue. Sasuke felt that his shadow clone Chakra was going to run out, so he directly dismantled the ninjutsu, and then split the two again and let them continue to do it. However, when he lifted the ninjutsu, he felt a little tired, but it seemed to be very helpful for his mental power, and when he was doing one thing repeatedly, it was a big test for people's spirit or willpower.
Wearing heavy gloves, the dancing god took the mold and put it in the cold water, and with a bang, bursts of white smoke rose from the water, then took out the mold, poured the formed soft iron on the forging table, and then picked up the hammer and began to beat. He beats very rhythmically, and the speed is very fast, each blacksmith has his own hammering rhythm, not to say whose rhythm is good, only the rhythm that suits him is the best.
The soft iron was repeatedly beaten and then shrunk, then folded and beaten, and after repeated many times, it had become very small, and at this time the second batch of soft iron was completed, and the Heavenly Dance Shenzang put the beaten soft iron into the mold, and then the quenched new soft iron solution also arrived, and after three times, the time was already in the evening, and he finished his work.
"Whew. Taking a deep breath, the Celestial Dance God Kurasai and Sasuke said, "The sword gall has been completed, and this toughness is very strong. Although his body was very tired, his spirit was very excited. "You rest here, I'll go buy something to eat and come back, the two of us should have dinner." "They don't have anyone to send anything to eat, Miko was asked not to send them food, the food at this time must be careful, Sasuke can go outside to find a random place to buy and eat, and at the same time he can check it himself, but how to check the things that Miko sent, so don't send it at all, just solve it yourself.
Sasuke bought a lot of food, and checked it carefully, which made the seller very embarrassed, as if he was going to poison him, but everyone can understand it, after all, now is a critical moment. The food is very abundant, there are fish, meat, and vegetables, and Sasuke can't help much now, so he can only keep the Heavenly Dance Shinzo strong in terms of eating. There was no rest for three days, and some of the solo participants were still trying, but those who had enough helpers could rest and go to sleep in their own tents.
"You rest, my shadow clone will be on duty at night, and no one can come to make trouble. "Sasuke let the Heavenly Dance Shenzang rest after the meal, after all, the refining of chakra metal will start tomorrow, and it will still consume a lot of mental and physical strength of the Heavenly Dance Shenzang, so he needs to rest early, and this kind of thing is left to the shadow clone on duty, after all, there are still a lot of samurai patrolling here. The audience is home, and they will come back tomorrow, after all, the quadrennial event is not to be missed.
Early the next morning, the Celestial Dance Kamizo got up, and Sasuke woke up at the same time, disarming the shadow clone and learning about the situation last night. Nothing happened last night, everyone finally went to sleep, and only the patrolling samurai continued their work.
The two of them started their busy morning, Sasuke asked the shadow clone to help clean up the ashes in the furnace pit, refill the charcoal, and the heavenly dance Shinzo began to clean the furnace, clean up the soft iron left over from yesterday's quenching, and then put in the chakra metal, and the shadow clone began to ignite, at this time Sasuke also bought breakfast and came back, and the two finished breakfast and started a new forging.
This time, the Heavenly Dance Shinzo poured the quenched chakra metal solution into the mold with the knife gall, the mold used today is different from yesterday, because the things created are different, so they need to be replaced, and after completion, a new round of forging began again, Sasuke saw that the key to the forging master was the final hammering. This is not only a test of your physical strength, but also a test of your eyesight and experience, and these are the components of a completely hand-made knife.
Because the Heavenly Dance Shenzang needs to smelt two metals, he didn't finish the last competition, after all, it is really difficult to be alone, especially without the help of fire ninjas, the temperature in the refining furnace is always not up, and the quenching process alone consumes a lot of his time, plus one person is responsible for all the work, his physical strength and spirit are very tired. This time it was a different story, with the help of Sasuke, a ninja, his speed was no different from that of those blacksmiths who used a metal to forge knives, and three days was enough time for him to do all the work.
By the end of the day, the knife is basically finished, and all that remains is the installation of the handle and scabbard, and then the sharpening of the knife.
Dancing Shinzo has been letting Sasuke quench the chakra metal, even when he has basically finished it, Sasuke didn't ask much, but let the shadow clone continue to do it, at this time Dancing Shinzo took out the handle and scabbard, both things have vine-like dimples on them, when the quenching is completed, Tianwu Shinzo has already put the handle on the knife, and then put the handle into the chakra metal solution upside down, and then quickly took it out, cleaned the surface solution with a special tool, only kept the inside of the dimple, and then put it in cold water, and so on many times。
