Chapter 234: The True Use of Iron Tools—For the Benefit of All Nations
Why did Yao Yun dedicate the art of iron smelting, naturally because he was a man of noble character, selfless, and bent on benefiting all people... Well, just grab the mental power of all sentient beings, merit and luck.
Personal moral cultivation aside, Yao Yun's mental power in his heart has not increased dramatically because of the dedication of the art of iron smelting, and it is still tepid.
When the second elder Wu heard this, he immediately became anxious.
"Great King, there is no increase, and it will not sacrifice the art of iron smelting to increase the mental power of sentient beings, but only to increase merit and luck? Hey, if this is the case, then it will not be beautiful......"
Yao Yun immediately cast the [All Living Beings' Telekinesis Record], and then his vision changed, and in a gray world, Yao Yun saw a little bit of light in the extremely distant sky, but it was too little, if he didn't pay attention, it would be difficult to find it at all.
Yao Yun breathed a sigh of relief, offering the art of iron smelting could still increase the mental power of all beings, but as for the scarcity, Yao Yun didn't take it to heart.
Iron tools are not promoted, the people of the world have not been favored, naturally will not give birth to the mental power of all beings, as long as people feel the benefits of iron tools in the future, and praise iron tools from the bottom of their hearts, Yao Yun will continue to obtain the mental power of all living beings.
It's just a matter of time.
"Second Elder, don't worry, now that the mental power of all living beings has been born, this should be the nobles of the imperial capital who have begun to try to smelt iron and strike iron, hahaha, in the future, when iron tools are promoted, we will not lack the mental power of all living beings, and then your old man's cultivation will also have the mental power of all living beings!"
The previous Chenghuang incident made Yao Yun see many dying and struggling Qi Refiners, which reminded him of the second elder Wu Tong, he was also old, if he didn't cultivate even more, he would also embark on the road of "Qingye Ancestor" in the future, which Yao Yun didn't want to see.
When the second elder heard Yao Yun's words, his heart suddenly felt warm, he was actually very eager for the mental power of all living beings, but his cultivation was high, and the mental power of all living beings in Yao Yun's hands really couldn't help his consumption.
"Thank you, King. ”
Yao Yun naturally waved his hand: "Second Elder, cultivate hard, and become a god as soon as possible." ”
Wu Tong smiled bitterly: "No, no, no, if the king becomes the son of Zhu Xia, a person who has attained the Tao of the chicken and dog ascends to heaven, and then gives the old man a god, wouldn't it be beautiful!"
Yao Yun directly gave the second elder a roll of his eyes, he also wanted to hug other people's thighs, who knew that people were staring at his snow-white thighs upright.
Without speculating for more than half a sentence, Yao Yun turned around to visit the two giant pandas.
Speaking of which, as soon as the two giant pandas saw Yao Yun coming over, they suddenly became a cute and stupid "melancholy little prince".
Let's go!
Two black and white meat balls pounced suddenly, hugged Yao Yun's thigh without saying a word, and after hugging it, he didn't let go, with an intimate face!
Yao Yun was stupid, originally he still wanted to see the demeanor of the future Iron Eater King Beast, but when he hugged this "thigh", he couldn't move, and he couldn't even use the [Mountain Wave Wind Technique], and Yao Yun's heart was half cold.
Legend has it that the great god Chiyou lost to a certain fool's hugging thigh, Yao Yun didn't believe this kind of nonsense before, but now, he believes...
......
When Xidu celebrated the promotion of the two iron-eating beasts to fierce beasts, the imperial capital Yunshi, thousands of miles away, was also celebrating the birth of the country's heavy weapon.
After the Marquis of Xixing brought the art of iron-making back to the imperial capital, countless goldsmiths, artemen and even warcasters began to smelt iron non-stop.
Why is iron better than copper? If nothing else, just an "easy to find" can explain everything.
At this time, many iron ores are open-pit rich ores, and there is no need to spend a lot of effort to find ore.
The emperor found an iron ore without much effort, and the open-pit iron ore did not need to be excavated to obtain a large amount of iron ore.
As a result, tens of thousands of slaves went up the mountain to mine and continuously supply iron ore to the imperial capital.
Because of Yao Yun's iron-making method, the craftsmen of the imperial capital took many detours, and after several attempts, they finally smelted the first batch of pig iron.
On this day, the Emperor of Heaven came to the craftsman's workshop at dusk, accompanied by countless ministers of the current dynasty, who were the representatives of the princes of the world, in other words, the eyes of the entire summer dynasty converged here.
The iron-making workshop was ordered by the Marquis of Xixing, and at this time, he naturally received the Son of Heaven and the princes of the dynasty.
Emperor Dusk: "Xixinghou, how is the research on the art of iron smelting?"
"Holy Lord, doctors, the iron-smelting technique is very good, what Wei Donghou said is true, this iron weapon is indeed more powerful than the bronze weapon, as far as the stone tools and wooden sticks in the hands of the barbarians, not to mention the 800 army against the 4,000 army, even if it is against 8,000, we have a chance to win!"
Xixinghou looked very excited.
When Emperor Du heard this, he was also quite pleased, although it was true that the iron tool was easy to use, but at first glance, he was still sincerely happy.
Emperor Dusk asked again: "Since what Xixinghou said, he thinks that he has already created iron tools, so he might as well take a look!"
Xixinghou naturally hurriedly said yes and took everyone to the blacksmithing workshop.
"Holy Lord, there will be fresh iron tools coming out soon, you can go and see for yourself!"
Soon, the Emperor of Heaven and a group of ministers came to the blacksmith's workshop, and happened to see a craftsman inserting a red iron sword into the water, which immediately steamed hot and filled the house.
"What is this?"
Emperor Twilight and the ministers looked puzzled.
Xixinghou said with a smile: "Xiyunzi calls it quenching, but all weapons need to be quenched after they are built, and the weapons created in this way are extremely sharp, in fact, this is the unique skill of many master casters, never passed on, Ben Hou also knew nothing before, and the mystery is unknown, hey, Ben Hou also understood after talking with Xi Yunzi, well, in short, whether the iron is strong or not has a lot to do with quenching." ”
Emperor Du said: "If it is not quenched, what will happen to the iron?"
Xixinghou smiled: "Holy Lord, you will know if you try it!"
It didn't take long for the craftsmen to bring two swords each, one unquenched and one quenched, and the one with a sharpened edge.
Xixinghou first held a quenched iron sword, and without blessing his vitality, he stabbed a sword into the wood.
The next moment, the tip of the iron sword plunged deep into the wood.
Another sword was slashed, and the iron sword still performed well, leaving a deep sword mark on the wood.
Xixinghou replaced it with the iron sword that was not quenched.
A sword was cut out, leaving only a shallow sword mark on the wood, but the iron blade was curled, and it was useless at all.
"Holy Lord, you see, this quenched iron is far from the unquenched iron!"
Everyone compared the two and immediately found the clue, and all the ministers shouted in unison.
The Son of Heaven then picked up a well-made iron sword, looked at it carefully, and then said:
"This sword is already a sharp weapon, although it is not as good as a good bronze weapon, but it is easy to build, it is worth extending, if the armies of the Xia Dynasty can have such weapons, what are the barbarians of the Quartet afraid of!"
Xixinghou hurriedly answered: "What the saint said is true, but Xi Yunzi said that iron weapons are only a small use, and his real role is to benefit all people, and it is an important weapon of the country!"
