Chapter 484: Peerless Divine Sword
Although Su Yi's matter has not been resolved, since there is no answer right away, Luo Qingluan can only put it aside.
No matter what happens, if you want to solve it, you have to rely on Su Yi to cheer herself up. Otherwise, no matter how much others have a heart, they are powerless, since Nangong Qing has already sent someone to take care of her, then she can't keep her mind over there until there is more news.
Thinking of what Nangong Yu said yesterday, Luo Qingluan was in a better mood, and after breakfast, she took Xu Lian directly to King Lin's mansion. If she can successfully forge that sword today, Luo Qingluan will let Xu Lian try it, after all, she doesn't know martial arts, and she can't try the effect of the sword, so it's more convenient to take Xu Lian.
Along the way, Xu Lian was a little excited.
She has practiced martial arts for many years, and she has also seen the long sword that Nalan Ye wears with her, although it is much higher than the average one and extremely sharp, it is much worse than what Luo Qingluan said about blowing hair and breaking hair, which is difficult to find in the world. People who practice martial arts, regardless of men and women, will be interested in this kind of divine weapon, after all, with a sword in hand, their own combat effectiveness can directly soar a lot.
"Princess, is it really a peerless sword?" Xu Lian's eyes seemed to be glowing.
"Whether it's the Peerless Excalibur or not, I'm not entirely sure yet, but there's still a third hope. After all, the material has reached the standard I demanded, far beyond the ordinary embryo, as long as the two craftsmen can successfully make the long sword open, then it must not be far from there. ”
Looking at Luo Qingluan's indifferent appearance, but with a lingering confidence on her face, Xu Lian looked forward to it more and more. Moreover, this sword was designed and forged by the princess, if the first one is successful, wouldn't there be a chance to succeed the second one? If she could also ask the princess to build her a peerless sword, she would wake up laughing even if she dreamed.
Soon arrived at King Lin's mansion, the porter was already waiting, and when he saw Luo Qingluan coming, he immediately opened the door of the house and smiled very politely: "Princess Chu is here, please inside, the prince is waiting for you in the forging workshop." ”
went directly to the forge shop, Luo Qingluan has been coming to this place a lot recently, and he can leave almost with his eyes closed.
Before she could get there, she heard the familiar tinkling sound from a distance, but it was different from usual. couldn't help but feel a fever in his heart, Luo Qingluan quickened his pace and walked over.
The firelight was blazing, even if it was hidden between the gaps in the flowers and trees, Luo Qingluan could see a hot scene in the distance. A tall man stood with his back to him, standing in the open space of the forge with his hands in his hands, and next to him, there was a furnace, the fire was blazing, Chen Si and Liu Mu each held a huge hammer, and kept beating.
The sound was as crisp as a dragon's groan, and it didn't strike once, but it had a concussive echo. The surroundings were incomparably empty, but there was still a continuous echo, as if the sound came from the blade they were forging.
Chen Si and Liu Mu were shirtless, and they were also soaked at this time, but the two of them didn't seem to even notice Luo Qingluan's arrival, and they only had the long sword that had been formed in their eyes, and they were concentrating on it, and there was nothing else to distract about.
With each hammer, a strong spark erupted between the blade and the hammer, dazzling even in the firelight. Mars splashed everywhere, as gorgeous as fireworks, and Nangong Yu, who was watching it, was full of red light and excited.
Xu Lian was even more shocked by everything, it was the first time she had seen the casting with her own eyes, and it was such an amazing and magical scene, she was so shocked that she didn't even say anything, she just looked at it directly, and even forgot to salute Nangong Yu.
Bite......
Ding Ding ......
Every knock seemed to hit everyone's hearts, and the continuous aftersound had a magical charm that attracted the attention of everyone present. If it weren't for Nangong Yu, when he just found out, he strictly ordered everyone not to walk around, let alone get close to here, for fear that the forge would already be watched.
Luo Qingluan's gaze fell on the sword embryo that was being beaten.
According to her layman's eyes, this sword embryo is actually almost indistinguishable from a normal sword, two fingers wide, more than three feet long, the sword body is calcined red, there is a faint sense of transparency in the silver white, and there are faint and unknown patterns. This is not deliberately carved, after all, it is such a hard embryo, let alone carving, I am afraid that it is not easy to cause marks on it.
Every time Chen Si and Liu Mu struck, Luo Qingluan actually couldn't see any effect, but she knew that these two people were masters that Nangong Yu had found from the Ministry of Industry, as long as they hadn't stopped, it would prove that the sword had not been completed.
Compared with ordinary people, perennial experience is no longer something that can be seen with the naked eye, but more by feeling, which is the resonance and connection between the forger and the work forged by himself.
Time passed little by little, and craftsmen kept adding charcoal to the stove to keep the fire hot.
Finally waited for an hour, the two finally stopped, Nangong Yu thought it was over temporarily, and just as he was about to step forward, he heard a dull voice: "Don't come over." ”
I saw Chen Si looking at Nangong Yu with a solemn face, at this moment, there was no humble and respectful look on his face, but there was still an awe-inspiring and majestic look. Nangong Yu involuntarily stopped, and then heard Chen Si say: "Push away, no one is allowed to approach." ”
I'm afraid that this is the most critical time, and even Luo Qingluan can't have the mind to explore, so he hurriedly pulled Nangong Yu back a few steps. As soon as he stopped, he took a few steps back, knowing that the heat of the firelight was not too obvious, and it was almost four or five zhang away from Chen Si and them before he stopped.
"Hey, when did you come?" Nangong Yu seemed to have noticed Luo Qingluan at this time.
"I've been optimistic for a long time." Luo Qingluan glanced at him, and sure enough, he was fascinated, and he didn't even know that she was coming. But she didn't mind, seeing that Chen Si was already walking towards a big wooden barrel with a long sword in his iron tongs not far away, she didn't care about talking more, and immediately said, "Look, I'm just afraid it's going to be good." ”
In that bucket, it was filled with cold and biting water, and there was even floating ice floating on the water. The lower the temperature of the water, the best effect is used to quench the sword embryo, this alternation of heat and cold, the inside of the sword body undergoes wonderful changes, even if Chen Si can't say clearly, but he knows that every step can't be wrong.
There was also a faint dark red silver sword embryo, and as soon as it entered the water, a large amount of white smoke came out, sizzling. The water vapor rose in a thick air, and it spread like a thick fog, and even the figures of Chen Si and Liu Mu were blocked, and they couldn't really see it.
There was nothing but the sound of sizzle.
Faintly seeing the movement in the white mist, Chen Si and Liu Mu didn't say a word, but they seemed to be doing something, and after waiting for a while, the white smoke gradually dispersed, followed by a soft dragon roar, long and long, as if resounding in everyone's hearts.
"Lord Wang!"
A voice with surprise sounded, and Chen Si walked out with a long sword in his hand: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored!" He trembled and presented the long sword with both hands, and respectfully handed it to Nangong Yu.
Suddenly surprised, Nangong Yu still didn't come back to his senses, he was already ready to fail, or, at least, there should be no result until tomorrow...... Unexpectedly, it was successful!
"Princess Chu......" Nangong Yu couldn't help herself with excitement, turned her head to look at Luo Qingluan, and didn't even know how to speak.
Luo Qingluan was not polite, she had been waiting for this day for a long time, and directly grabbed the long sword in Chen Si's hand, and suddenly felt heavy in her hands. Can't wait, she carefully looked at the long sword in her hand, only to see the long sword that has been cooled and tempered, the sword body is as white as snow, the light can be seen, and the sword body is covered with dark lines like frost flowers, which adds a bit of mystery to the long sword.
Immediately wanted to try the effect of this long sword, Luo Qingluan looked around, but didn't know what to use. Knowing that Chen Si said 'fortunately not dishonoring his life', that is, it was a success, even if it was not as good as the batch of armaments that Nangong Yu had experimented before, at least it should be about the same, but Luo Qingluan was reluctant to cut it casually.
"Princess, try it down." Xu Lian on the side couldn't wait.
Nodding, Luo Qingluan handed over the long sword and said with a smile: "Okay, Xu Lian, you come." ”
As soon as she started, Xu Lian's expression was different.
With a flash of sword light, Xu Lian had already risen into the air, jumping out as lightly as a flying swallow. Originally, she was the best at light work, but now she was even more like a celestial, leisurely jumping in the sky, and Chen Si and Liu Mu were dumbfounded.
A dazzling sword light in the sunlight, like the sun, Xu Lian has fallen, the long sword in his hand slashed, and suddenly the sound of the dragon roared, on a hugging banyan tree five zhang away from her, suddenly a branch as thick as a child's arm fell.
One after another, the fallen leaves flew one by one, like a carpet.
"Good sword!" Nangong Yu praised it, and there seemed to be a light in his eyes.
Although his martial arts are not as good as Nangong Qing, let alone Nalan Ye, he has also been taught by the forbidden army in the palace since he was a child. Xu Lian's martial arts skills are indeed good, but she cut such a thick branch through the air with a sword, if it wasn't for the fact that her kung fu had reached the release of sword qi, then the sword itself was extremely sharp. Complement each other and complement each other, which is what has such an effect.
Brush Brush Brush ......
Xu Lian didn't seem to have enjoyed it yet, after landing, she had already splashed the water of the sword dance, she herself looked delicate, and every move and style had a slight dragon chant sound, endlessly, and even Luo Qingluan couldn't help but look at it.
A sword pointed obliquely, Xu Lian roared lightly, only to see her sword look at a pillar in the middle of the street, and suddenly slashed.
"Princess, this sword is simply ......" Xu Lian stopped, looking at the sword in her hand, her face full of unbelievable excitement.
When Luo Qingluan walked over to take a look, Xu Lian not only cut off a branch in the air before, but also cut off the stone pillar with a sword. This pillar is as thick as a basin, and she can see clearly just now that Xu Lian's sword is indeed slashed at the pillar, but it definitely does not come out through the pillar. And now, there is a thin crack on the entire pillar, and it is conceivable that this pillar has been cut off.
looked at the sword body, but it was still silver and shiny, not even stained with dust, Luo Qingluan's eyes lit up with joy.
It's so sharp and tough, it's definitely much better than the previous batch of armaments!
At this time, Nangong Yu also came over, and Luo Qingluan handed over the sword: "Nangong Yu, it's really good, take a look." ”
Taking the long sword, Nangong Yu couldn't put it down: "Really...... And it did! Obviously, the forging steps and methods are similar, why ...... Why is the effect so much worse? Could it be because of the addition of strange stones from beyond the sky......"
In Luo Qingluan's opinion, this is really the reason.
Time was pressing, and she didn't have more time to slowly hand over the new method to Chen Si and the others for experimentation, so she could only hope for the material. Although there were some accidents along the way, fortunately it succeeded in the end.
She turned her head to look at Chen Si and Liu Mu, and said seriously: "Two masters, if this divine sword can succeed, you two should be the first to take the credit." ”
"Don't dare to be, it's all the princess's extraterrestrial stone, where do we have any credit." Chen Si and Liu Mu were very modest, but their expressions were also full of pride.
I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would be able to forge such a divine sword with my own hands, such a peerless divine weapon will definitely not be unknown, as soon as I think of it, this long sword from their hands will play an amazing role, invincible, unstoppable, that is their greatest glory.
Xu Lian's face was also red with excitement: "Princess, if the prince sees this sword, he will definitely be very happy." ”
Yes, this is Luo Qingluan's original intention, if it weren't for Nalan Ye, for him to be safer on the front line and play a greater role, she wouldn't have gone to great lengths to build such a long sword. Such a peerless divine weapon can only play its full role in the hands of a person like Nalan Ye, who has superb martial arts.
As soon as he thought of this, Luo Qingluan couldn't help it.
She wanted to hurry back and show the sword to Nalan Ye. Just give him the Excalibur, and he should also be given a suitable name!
