Chapter 007: Forging
A bronze forge with flame runes on the hearth, which can gather the power of the flame and roughly adjust the temperature of the flame. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 There are three rune crucibles in the large, medium and small, which can withstand the fiery calcination for 7749 days without melting a single bit. Several hammers of varying weights and a matching forge table, both of which are blessed with runes, make them very solid and will not deform no matter how they are struck.
I bought some utensils, iron ingots and other materials, and the gold coins that had just arrived were spent in a blink of an eye, and Qin Bing's flesh was trembling with pain, and the warlock's cultivation was really incomparably expensive. At this moment, Qin Bing was extremely "grateful" to Humpty Dumpty's father and son, if it wasn't for them sending money and things to him, how could he afford to do so many things.
A carriage was hired to bring things home, and Qin Bing vacated a room as a forging room, and hastily cleaned up the copper furnace and anvil table. After the things are placed, a fire charm is put into the furnace, the spiritual power activates the fire charm, and a blazing flame instantly ignites in the hearth, and clusters of flames are absorbed, gathered, and erupted by the flame runes blessed in the hearth.
Under the power of the rune fire, the iron ingot quickly became bright and soft, and it didn't take long to turn into a pot of molten iron, Qin Bing felt that the time was almost up, according to the special skills taught by the Tiangong blacksmith, filtered out the impurities in the molten iron, and after repeating it several times, he picked up the crucible with pliers and poured the molten iron into the mold on the side.
In the process of waiting for the molten iron to cool and form, Qin Bing found that the little black dog that was particularly sticky to him in the past was surprisingly not moving today, neither arching around at his feet, nor humming and chirping, and he hadn't seen its shadow for so long.
However, Qin Bing's mind was full of forging at this time, and he didn't have time to pay attention to the abnormality of the little black dog, feeling that it was almost cooled, Qin Bing knocked open the mold, cleaned up the remaining debris on the embryo, and then put it into the furnace to continue calcining.
The little black dog finally appeared, but unlike the previous liveliness, today's little black dog was unusually calm, calm and a little dull. It squatted quietly beside Qin Bing, and a strange green glow flashed in its dark eyes from time to time. It's just that Qin Bing was busy observing the furnace fire and didn't notice this.
When the fire was almost over, Qin Bing picked up the embryo in the furnace and put it on the anvil to start forging. His strength is not too big, so he uses a small hammer, but even then it is extremely difficult, he feels his hand sore after dozens of knocks, and when he hits a hundred times, his wrist begins to swell and hurt, and Qin Bing has to stop.
"Teacher Cang, other people's talisman ghosts can help the master do some simple labor, shouldn't you also help!"
Although the newly recruited Fu Ghost has no wisdom, it can perform some simple commands, such as carrying things, splitting wood, fetching water, mopping the floor, etc., isn't there a saying that "money can make ghosts grind".
Teacher Cang reluctantly appeared beside Qin Bing, "I'm so beautiful, so cute, so cute...... You actually asked me to strike iron? Strike the iron, strike the iron! Can my little arm and leg carry a hammer? ”
"Ahem...... You don't have hands at all. ”
Teacher Cang rolled his eyes, "Cultivation must be taken step by step, you can't be lazy, you can't slack off." With this kind of thinking, how can you become a strong person? ”
Qin Bing was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly reviewed his mistakes. Many warlocks can use up a large vat of ink in a year in order to practice copying runes, and it is a shame that they are tired after only a hundred swings of the hammer.
In order to completely dispel the idea of Qin Bing enslaving himself to be a coolie, Teacher Cang said again: "It's not your fault, after all, your physical fitness is too poor. This goddess will make a plan for you, first of all, meals, no more steamed buns and pickles every day, you must supplement more meat and eggs, as well as physical exercises, such as push-ups, sit-ups, planks, ......"
Teacher Cang said a lot, and Qin Bing remembered all of them in his heart, and said secretly: Could it be that this is the cultivation method used by Teacher Cang in his previous life? But that's too simple, isn't it? Could it be that I have a low level of understanding and cannot comprehend the mysteries?
"Hey, no, Teacher Cang, didn't you say that you sealed all the memories related to cultivation? How to ......"
Teacher Cang couldn't wait to slap herself, and she almost showed her stuffing, but her eyes rolled and she gurgled, "This is not a cultivation, but a technique called 'fitness', which everyone in my previous life knew in the world." ”
Qin Bing suddenly had a sense of admiration for the world of Teacher Cang's previous life, this kind of "profound" skill was known to everyone, unlike his own world, where all the cultivation skills were occupied by the royal family and the family. How strong should the people in Mr. Cang's world be?
If Teacher Cang knew Qin Bing's thoughts, he would definitely scoff at it—everyone knew that it was true, but less than one in ten thousand people could persist every day, or even less. What two-pack pectoral muscles, eight-pack abs, mermaid line, male dog waist, there is no one in ten thousand, one in ten thousand! Those men have fuller breasts than women, and their bellies are bigger than pregnant women, what qualifications do women have to have big breasts, thin waists, and round buttocks......
After reading 10,000 words, Mr. Cang began to observe the little black dog on the ground.
The little black dog also looked at Teacher Cang, with an unusual look in his eyes. No longer as threatening and hostile as before, there is an indescribable feeling, both attachment and awe - especially smart, by no means the eyes of ordinary cats and dogs.
At this time, a caterpillar crawled in front of the little black dog, the little black dog skillfully raised its paws, only to hear a snap, a shallow plum blossom-shaped pit appeared on the soft muddy ground, and the insect turned into a puddle of sticky flesh, at the same time, the little black dog's eyes had a trace of imperceptible green light.
Teacher Cang nodded with satisfaction, and secretly said in his heart: This puppy actually has a strange bloodline, which can resonate with that guy, I don't know if this puppy will succeed. If that's the case, it's okay......
At this time, Qin Bing regained a little strength, picked up the iron embryo from the furnace, and continued to beat. With the passage of time, the Qin soldiers gradually found the rhythm of forging, and the time of each round of beating gradually increased, and as they continued to beat, the iron embryo on the anvil showed the edges and corners of the sword little by little.
Tempering the sword embryo is a technical job. The length of the sword body, the thickness of the sword spine, the ratio of the length of the hilt to the sword body, and the weight ratio are all very particular. If the proportions are balanced, the forged sword is easy to hold, reduces physical wear, and increases lethality in swinging. And if the proportions are not balanced, it will take a lot of power to balance the weapons, which will invisibly reduce the combat effectiveness.
Fortunately, Qin Bing's forging experience was inherited from the Tiangong blacksmith, and many weapon shapes, proportions, and data were all familiar with the chest, and even if there were some slight errors, they were all made up for and corrected little by little in the continuous beating, and tended to be perfect. If you are an ordinary blacksmith, you have to accumulate more than ten years of experience alone.
The next step is quenching, don't underestimate this step, proper quenching can make the quality of the weapon to the next level, the wrong quenching method can greatly reduce the quality of the weapon, or even become a scrap.
The scorching iron sword was immersed in the quenching liquid prepared according to the secret recipe, and suddenly it snorted and steamed, and the little black dog who was shooting ants was startled, and the black hair on his back exploded. However, it soon calmed down and continued to pat the ants with its head down.
Qin Bing took out the cooled iron sword, then cut the blade, simply polished, and wrapped the cowhide twisted into thin strips on the hilt of the sword. Not long after, a long sword with a dazzling cold light appeared on the anvil platform. Qin Bing picked up a thumb-thick branch and tried it, cutting it into two pieces with a light touch.
Teacher Cang's body swayed, as if nodding, "Yes, you can create a qualified weapon with the first practice, and you have a great talent for forging." ”
Qin Bing smiled, but he understood that this sword was only a work of practice, not a high-quality product, and even a little rough because of the rush of time. According to the classification of weapons and equipment by the heavenly blacksmith, this sword should barely reach the lowest white grade, and there is still a long way to go from the blue grade.
Qin Bing didn't know why the Tiangong blacksmith wanted to grade the equipment according to the color, and took a closer look at the iron sword he had built, the whole body exuded blue-gray, and it had no connection with white.
