[Add more to the ink night with red]

Qin Bing nodded, indicating that he had written down this sentence. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Then, each piece of bronze has to go through two processes, mold making and casting, the first is molding."

As he spoke, the owner put a piece of beeswax into the crucible, and then put it on the flame to heat, and the beeswax quickly softened, and when it was almost time, the owner poured the beeswax onto a copper case as smooth as a mirror, and then kneaded it.

"Doesn't that sound familiar? That's right, making a mold is like kneading clay figures. According to ancient legends, there was a god named Nuwa, who kneaded soil for people, and the mold I make now is the embryo of the utensil. ”

Hearing the word "Nuwa created people", Teacher Cang said in a voice that only he could hear: I'm going to go for a mile, what is it, is there Nuwa in this world?

Soon, a round sheet with a diameter of four centimeters appeared in the hands of the owner, to Qin Bing's surprise, this sheet was very standard, as if measured by a rectangular ruler, and there were beautiful ornaments on it, and all of this came from the owner's skillful hands, without using any tools.

"People in the world think that the runes on the rune utensils are blessed after casting, but in fact, they are not, but they have been given at the time of embryo making, such as this ......"

As he spoke, the owner adjusted the rune ink, picked up the rune pen and sketched it on the embryo made of beeswax. He was drawing a rune, but he was drawing a rune that Qin Bing didn't recognize. Qin Bing's only feeling was that this rune was so complicated, even more complicated than the Soul Talisman. The moment the owner stopped writing, the runes shone with a mysterious silver brilliance, and then, ripples rippled out, finally forming nine silk-like lines.

Teacher Cang whispered and said, "I copied this ninth-level rune, and I made a lot of money!" ”

The embryo needs to be dried and cooled.

The owner saw sweat on his forehead, and his ruddy face became pale, he took a few breaths, and then continued to explain: "The human embryo, when conceived, contains information such as tall, short, fat, thin, beautiful and ugly, and the embryo of the organ is the same, most of its functional attributes are given by nature. For example, in this embryo, I drew the ninth-level rune Sumeru mustard seed, and if the casting is successful, the appliance will become a space of its own. As for the size of the interior space, it depends on whether the casting process is smooth or not. ”

After speaking, the owner took out a jade bowl, poured some powder into it and mixed it with water, and then stirred it, to Qin Bing's speechlessness, he was talking to the mud. Real and mud, the powder he just poured into the jade bowl was not some remarkable material, but dust everywhere.

The owner ignored Qin Bing's strange gaze, "I told you before, the art of casting originated from Nuwa's creation of people, so the one that holds the embryo must be soil, and only soil can give birth to life." ”

Soon, the owner of the workshop reconciled the mud, he used a small brush to evenly brush the mud on the embryo, one after another, layer after layer, after a while, the embryo was glued tightly, leaving no gaps.

"People need to conceive in October, and casting also requires a long wait, and the larger the casting utensils, the longer the wait. The mud tire wrapped in the embryo must be dried in the shade and not exposed to the sun, so as not to deform, even the slightest deformation will lead to the failure of casting. But we're in a hurry and can't wait that long. ”

The owner of the workshop played a rune, and the water in the mud tire was quickly lost, and the process of drying in the shade was completed in a few blinks of an eye, which would affect the quality of the embryo, but the workshop master could not do so much. Then, the owner used a talisman pen to draw one rune after another on the surface of the dry mud tire, and explained the function of these runes to Qin Bing.

"Then, put the dried embryo in the fire and sacrifice, like this."

During the sacrificial process, the owner taught Qin Bing the skills of mastering the heat and the matters that need to be paid attention to. At this time, only listen to the sound of "click". The popping sound came from the mud tire, but the mud tire was intact without any cracks. The only change was that the runes on the exterior of the mud tire were getting brighter and brighter, and they continued to extend upwards, as if they were about to converge at some point at the top.

The owner of the workshop explained Qin Bing's confusion: "The baby has an umbilical cord connection with the mother, and it is not completely isolated from the outside world. The same goes for the embryo, and this connection point is on the mud tire, and when applying the mud tire, a 'umbilical cord line' must be left with a special technique, with the rune on the mud tire, this line will slowly crack during the sacrifice process and communicate with the outside world. If the 'umbilical cord' is interrupted and cannot be continued, it means that God does not allow this instrument to be born and the casting fails. ”

The owner controlled the heat of the sacrifice, and every once in a while, a slight crunch would be heard, and after nine consecutive crunching sounds, the light on the surface of the mud tire finally converged at the top, turning into a dazzling silver light erupting.

The silver light rushed upwards like a trapped dragon ascending to the sky, but at this time, the owner drew a rune, and the silver light immediately collided with an invisible confinement, rushing left and right above the mud tire, but it was never able to get out of the trap. After a few times, the silver light finally tamed, and slowly fell silent, revealing its true body—it was the ninth-level rune Sumeru mustard seed that he had just drawn.

The owner pointed to the rune and said: "The embryo made of beeswax will melt when the mud tire is refined, and the rune power on it will be activated, but because the mud tire is closed, the rune power cannot be released, and the only result is that it will be integrated with the beeswax essence and become the soul of the device." ”

"The birth of life is the fusion of soul and flesh, the soul of the vessel is the rune, and the flesh and blood of the vessel is the copper juice. Copper can perfectly carry runic power, a property that no metal can match. ”

As he spoke, the owner pointed to the boiling copper juice in the rune crucible next to him, which was a mixed metal that had just been configured with copper and several metals. The spiritual power in the owner's hand swallowed, and a ball of spiritual power wrapped in copper juice floated to the top of the mud tire, and the copper juice turned into a thin line thinner than a hair and hung straight down, just pouring into the "umbilical cord" above the mud tire.

"Listen to the sound, the sound will be different when the copper juice is about to be filled."

At this time, the last drop of copper juice also turned into a thin thread and flowed into the mud tire, and the owner's grasp of the quantity reached the point of no mistake.

"Then, seal the soul of the vessel into the mud fetus, so that it blends with the copper juice and water milk, and the spirit and flesh become one!"

As he spoke, the owner pressed the palm of his hand, and the confinement above the mud tire pressed down out of thin air, and the ring rune of Sumeru struggled unwillingly, and then was pressed into the mud tire little by little, and the confinement sealed the "umbilical cord" like a bottle stopper, making the mud tire completely isolated from the outside world.

Next, it is to wait, wait for the melons to ripen and fall, and wait for the flowers to bear fruit.

Qin Bing slowly closed his eyes, and the casting process appeared in his mind one after another, connecting into one, and an obscure inspiration germinated in the bottom of his heart, as if he would break through the ground at any time.

Teacher Cang was also shocked speechless, and she muttered to herself, "Wonderful! It's really amazing, this is the supreme skill of heaven and earth, is this the most mysterious mastery of the bronze civilization? ”

No matter how exquisite the forging technology is, what is produced is a pile of dead things, and each piece produced by casting is "flesh and blood and soul", which is no longer a simple instrument, but life, the same life as human beings. Adhering to the way of heaven and earth where all things are born, the life principle of yin and yang is combined.

I don't know how long it took, Qin Bing slowly opened his eyes, he felt that he had understood, and he had understood the truth of casting, although it was only a shallow layer of skin, but this meant that he had already stepped into the door of casting with half a foot.

Seeing the light in Qin Bing's eyes, the owner nodded appreciatively, "The understanding is good, and you can gain something from observing the casting for the first time." You don't need to tell me what you realize, you just have to follow the path you have realized. No bronze is exactly the same, and naturally no one is exactly the same. ”

Qin Bing nodded, clasped his hands and swiped to the end of the owner.

The owner of the workshop accepted this gift, and then said: "The melon is ripe and falls, and it is now the last and most critical step of casting." ”
