Chapter 157: The Mystery of the Hundred Refinements

Heavenly Sin raised the small hammer and dipped it directly in the sink, and only after wetting the entire pillow iron did he put the metal block on it, and slammed the hammer down, because of the relationship between the water, the whole plane burst out with a circle of sparks, as if the fireworks were put on the plane here!

Xiao Lu was stunned, hurriedly stretched out her hand and waved it twice to block it, and then covered her face, for fear that a spark would disfigure her. She was supposed to take a few steps back, but she really didn't want to go too far from Heavenly Sin, even if it was a few steps away, maybe it was the difference between life and death.

She wouldn't believe that Guiping would really let them go, from the time she heard about Guiping's character until she saw him a few times, there had never been a rumor of him missing in the mainland, how could she break the 'rules' lightly here?

As if he didn't think of anything anymore, he struck three hammers, and then dipped some water with a small hammer, and struck it again, and a burst of sparks flew. There is a big difference in the senses alone, a hammer without water is just a little spark, and a water dip is like hitting an explosive, and it explodes with a bang, and it is extremely gorgeous.

The blacksmith shop owner on the other side of the street was stunned, and he didn't understand why he was wet, not only them, but even Onihei was a little confused, and couldn't help but ask, "Excuse me...... Why water? Is there anything special about it? ”

Heavenly Sin rolled his eyes and said, "Pull your bellows!" It's okay, so curious, what are you doing? Are you curious about the baby? Really, excuse me. ”

Onihei was almost choked to death by the choking sound, and he could only hold back the anger in his heart, and he could only keep his head down and continue to work, but in his heart, he was more confident in the craftsmanship of heavenly sin.

In fact, there are two kinds of casting and forging processes in this world, casting is the means used by those masters, and forging is the skill of these small folk workshops to get some daily farm tools, and the two are not comparable at all, so when the sin began to take out the metal block and knock it, Oniping's face was very ugly, and he began to feel that he had been deceived, but the small hammer burst out of these brilliant sparks in the water, but it made him more confident.

At this moment, a very abrupt voice sounded from the side of Heavenly Sin: "Old man, I am also curious, why do you want to get wet?" Water and fire are two polar things, and they are mutually restrictive by nature, and when they come together, they are thunder and fire, so how can the two be combined? In particular, isn't it necessary to reduce the temperature of the material by hammering it with water in this way? ”

The voice came so suddenly, even ...... Knowing that he spoke, everyone found that an old man appeared out of thin air next to him, before Ghost Ping raised his head to look at the heavenly sin and looked around, but he also didn't find the old man's existence, and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat! He is not a fool, he naturally knows that he can do this, and his cultivation will definitely not be worse than his own.

Heavenly Sin also turned his head to look at the old man and found that this old man ...... He was really an old man, with shriveled skin and short stature, and his clothes were very unelegant, only a dark red robe hung dirtily on his body, with his hands behind his back, slightly bent over, and his wrinkled face that could trap mosquitoes showed a curious and incomprehensible look.

In fact, what attracted the old man at first was the way and rhythm of the wind blowing in the ghost, increasing the wind speed to the point that it could burn the roof built of earth, which was a strange thing in itself, so he took a closer look, but suddenly saw the action of the heavenly sin water hammer smashing the sparks, and suddenly couldn't help it, so he came forward and asked. The so-called layman looks at the lively insider's doorway, and the sin has only smashed a few hammers so far, but the stability of the hammer and the essence of the drop point make the old man feel ashamed, and the most critical ...... How big is the sin of heaven?!

This kind of craft is quite normal in the hands of an old man who has been studying for many years, after all, there is a sky outside the sky, but a child ...... This was too much to say, and the old man thought that the Heavenly Sin was only a coincidence that had the subtlety of these hammers.

Tiansin blinked his eyes twice, then sighed helplessly, and said in a stinky manner: "Old man, have you paid the tuition?" Why did Ben Hou sue you? Don't understand? I don't understand what I want to go! ”

After saying that, he slammed on the metal block again, obviously, it was not a random knock, just a cup of tea, and the metal block that was still sharp and irregular just now had turned into a cute-looking cuboid, more like 'ice cream'.

Stretched out his hand to wipe a handful of sweat, and the heavenly sin was jerked in his arms, and then he found that he didn't have it on him, and ran to Xiaolu and went to her arms and dug it with one hand, and found that he was ...... Xiao Lu is not a little sword, how can he bring those things he usually has?

No? No! Nerve-wracked, Heavenly Sin scratched his scalp vigorously, and in desperation, he had no choice but to continue to throw the metal block into the fire, and began to look around.

Forging a sword, or forging a weapon, requires three basic and irreversible steps, the first of which is 'steelmaking', or forging a qualified metal. The second step is shaping, and the third step is grinding and mounting.

And the most common method for the first step is Bailian, which is actually a very helpless way to create a miracle. Helpless because ...... The metal can only be removed by calcination and percussion, but ...... If you want to continue to knock, you can't change the direction, so it's easy to knock the metal 'scattered', so ...... I came up with a very stupid and stupid way to just break the metal in half and fold it together, so that I could continue to tap. Bailian is just a technique for purifying metals, and there is nothing magical about it, but this practice really creates a 'magic', but it all depends on one of the processes - 'slurry'!

After the red-hot metal is 'forged', it is covered with a special substance, and the substance will 'melt' on the surface of the metal under high temperature, which is perfectly combined with it, and with the increase of the number of forgings, the substance will be neatly stored between the metals, creating a hundred forging patterns, which is commonly known as patterned steel.

The reason why I say that...... It is because many substances have excellent properties, such as hardness, such as corrosion resistance, such as resistance to metal fatigue, but they cannot be forged like metal, so Bailian provides them with 'grooves'.

After looking for a long time, the heavenly sin got nothing, and in a fit of rage, he turned his head and shouted to Guiping: "What are you still standing stupidly for?" Go, find volunteers for Ben Hou, Ben Hou wants blood! The blood of the living! Everyone let them draw a bowl of blood, no more, just fill this barrel to the brim! ”

Ghost Ping was scolded again, and then looked at a waist-thick wooden barrel thrown at him by Heavenly Sin, he wanted to stuff Heavenly Sin into it and squeeze out the blood!

But in the end, he sighed, let go of the bellows handle, and walked towards a group of 'innocent' people, who were so vicious that they wanted blood.

The old man understood and shouted, "Nonsense! The method of forging pays attention to purity, can not be contaminated with debris, each forging must first bathe, change clothes and fast for a few days to remove body filth before it can be carried out, but you doll to give birth to human blood? What are you doing? ”

Tiansin rolled his eyes and said, "You old man is so boring, I have to report to you first what I want to do?" ”

Then, I saw that the old man was glared at by the angry blowing beard, and ...... I have already begun to roll up my sleeves, obviously wanting to come up and teach a lesson to the heavenly sin, and the heavenly sin is in line with the principle that the hero does not suffer the loss in front of him, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Ahem...... Since you're always so curious, I'm going to tell you a little bit, blood...... Of course, it is forged as a raw material. ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, then shocked, and finally even more furious, and shouted: "Ignorance! Monkey business! Forging from human blood? This is the way of the evil demons, could you be a doll from the Demon Gate?! ”

Heavenly Sin snorted: "This is the Outer Dao of the Evil Demon? I rub! You old immortal...... Ahem, let's talk, don't do it, don't think that Ben Hou is afraid of you, who is Ben Hou? Today, when you are a marquis of Nanming, will you be afraid of a bad old man? Ahem, old man?! Of course not! You say that using blood is the way of demons? Looks like you despise blood! Don't you think it's dirty? Then you give all the blood in your body to Benhou, Benhou is not too dirty! Hmph, blood is the root of people, the hidden soul is around the sky, the rise and fall of essence and blood is directly related to people's health, you think it is disgusting, but you think it is sacred! This is not to kill people to obtain essence blood, but to borrow some sacred blood from the people to forge a good weapon, what is the evil way of this? Please, don't force your ignorance on Benhou, okay? Stinky old man! ”

The old man was almost vomited blood by his bad old man and stinky old man, when was his identity so insulted? Naturally, it was a rage. But at the same time, there seems to be some truth in his words of absolute sin, something that he has not been able to understand for most of his life, such as ...... What the hell is life? What counts as a living? What is death? Cultivating to the supreme person's body is ruined and the soul is eternal, is this dead or alive? Essence Blood, Essence Blood, what is it?

The most important thing is that he also wants to see what Heavenly Sin is going to do with that blood, so he almost crushed the flesh of his thigh with his fingers, and finally held back and didn't get angry, but stood by and watched silently with a cold snort.

After a cup of tea, Onihei found a number of 'well-wishers', who 'voluntarily' cut their arms, dripping a large bowl of blood, and finally filled the terrifying big wood, and the smell of blood spread on the street at once, and anyone who smelled it couldn't help but wrinkle their noses, and some people almost vomited.

Tiansin glanced at the old man and found that he was also frowning, so he snorted and said, "Think it smells bad? Hmph, the smell of blood is the smell of iron, what kind of forger should you be if you can't get used to this smell? According to Benhou...... Hehe, that's the smell of life, it can carry life, it can take away life, it's really ...... The closest thing to the gods in the world, hahaha! ”

Waiting for Oniping to put the wooden barrel in front of him, Heavenly Sin directly picked up the tongs and knocked out the piece of metal that had been beaten into 'ice cream' again, knocked off the infinite fireworks on it with a few jingles, and then hung it on the wooden barrel, scooped up a handful of blood with his bare hands, and ...... directly. It was evenly poured over the red-hot metal block......

Whew!

The white mist is shrouded, and the smell is overwhelming.
