Volume 1 The Great Escape Chapter 92 Sword Forging
Master Nian's reputation in Sword Casting Valley is very great, although he can't be said to be the first person, but his fame is definitely the greatest, otherwise Tong Wu wouldn't have come here several times to ask for a sword.
Master Nian is so famous, the place where he usually forges swords must be very magnificent, this is a common sense, but when Qin Wu came to Master Nian's blacksmith shop, he looked at the simple and somewhat excessive blacksmith shop in front of him and was stunned for a while.
"This is Master Nian's blacksmith shop?"
"Of course, it's very surprising, in fact, you won't be surprised if you have seen the style of those swordsmiths in Sword Forge Valley. ”
Tong Wu smiled, he was obviously a frequent visitor to Sword Casting Valley, and he had long been accustomed to Master Nian's low-key style.
"Yo, isn't this the Tongwu of the Sword Hall, what kind of wind blew your kid here again?"
Before Qin Wu and Tong Wu walked into the blacksmith shop, the door was pushed open, and a big man with a tiger's back walked out, he looked at Tong Wu and smiled, and anyone could see that it was full of mockery.
Tong Wu's face instantly piled up a smile, and he said with an almost flattering smile: "Master Nian, I'm here again, you seem to be very free today." ”
Master Nian smiled, he didn't pay attention to Tong Wu, but looked at Qin Wu on the side, looked up and down before saying, "Boy, you won't also be from the Sword Suppression Hall, right?"
Qin Wu smiled: "I'm not from the Sword Casting Hall, but from the Sword Casting Hall. ”
Master Nian immediately laughed and said, "It turned out to be a disciple of the Bajian Hall, so you say that we are our own people." Say, what sword do you need to build, I still have time today, and I can do it for you. ”
Master Nian seemed to be very talkative, and without saying a word, he said that he would help Qin Wu forge a sword. This kind of treatment made Tong Wu on the side very jealous, and he couldn't help but say: "Master Nian, this matter should be paid attention to come first and come first, this is the third time I have come, should you help me get it first." ”
Master Nian looked at Tong Wudao with an unhappy face: "What comes first and comes, this is the Sword Casting Valley, the territory of our Sword Casting Hall, he is a disciple of our Sword Casting Hall, that is his own person, for his own people, there is no such thing as first come, first come, first come, so you should wait honestly, if you are talking nonsense, you will get rid of Lao Tzu immediately." ”
Master Nian waved his hand impatiently, he was very unhappy with Tong Wu, and his bored look seemed to be like chasing flies.
Tong Wu's face was depressed, but he was not angry, obviously he already knew what kind of virtue Master Nian was.
"Boy, what sword do you need, say your request, such an opportunity is very rare, I may not be in such a good mood next time. ”
A smile appeared on Master Nian's face, and the eyes that looked at Qin Wu were full of kindness, which was completely the look of a junior.
Qin Wu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Master Nian, I don't want to ask for a sword, but I plan to build my own sword." ”
Master Nian raised his eyebrows and said, "You just joined the Sword Casting Hall, have you ever learned the art of sword casting?"
Qin Wu nodded and said, "I was learning to forge swords when I was very young, and it can be said that the swords I use myself are all forged by myself. ”
Master Nian said in surprise: "The person who taught you swordsmanship is from the Sword Casting Hall?"
Qin Wu said with a smile: "It was my father who taught me swordsmanship, and he told me since I was a child that in order to become a true swordsman, I need to rely on my own hands to create my own sword. When one day you really become a swordsman, then the sword in your hand will also become an invincible sword, I have always been so strict with myself, so this time I came to the Sword Pavilion, I want to rebuild my sword and integrate the recent understanding into my sword. ”
A smile appeared on Master Nian's face: "Your father should seem to be a very strong swordsman, otherwise he would not have such a deep understanding. Well, since you want to build your own sword, then I can let you use my swordsmith, and I hope your skills don't disappoint me. ”
Qin Wu hurriedly said, "Thank you, Master." ”
Master Nian waved his hand and said, "Boy, don't thank you, as long as you have a passable sword-casting technique, you can come to me if you want to forge a sword in the future." ”
Master Nian seemed to be very talkative, there was no such thing as Tong Wu had hinted at before, Qin Wu walked into the blacksmith shop, the layout here was similar to the outside, not to mention, many things were thrown everywhere, making people dare not compliment.
Master Nian didn't feel embarrassed by the poor environment of the blacksmith shop, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the hammer resting in the corner and said, "At that time, the hammer for apprentices was used, you can use that." ”
Qin Wu naturally noticed that the hammer used by Master Nian's so-called apprentice, this thing was not small in size, no matter how it was called, it seemed to have nothing to do with the sledgehammer used for forging.
"Exaggeration, what swordsmith would forge a sword with such a domineering hammer?"
Tong Wu followed into the blacksmith shop, looking at the special hammer for apprentices that Master Nian pointed to, the corners of his mouth twitched, this thing is really a bit exaggerated, if you want to say that this is for the swordsmith, he will definitely not believe it, if it is used by the martial artist, it is almost the same.
"You kid knows a fart, don't squeak around there, you don't talk and no one will treat you as dumb. ”
Master Nian glared at Tong Wu very unpleasantly, he seemed to be thinking about whether to drive people out.
Tong Wu immediately shut up, he knew that Master Nian had always been a little unhappy with him, which was also the real reason why he failed to seek the sword in the first two times.
"Alright, ignore some guys who don't know how to pretend to understand, you can start now. ”
Master Nian looked at Qin Wu with a smile, obviously he really wanted to see what Qin Wu was going to do.
Looking at the huge hammer, Qin Wu was surprised?
It's really not surprising that Qin Wu didn't simply want to build his own sword, he had learned the sword-casting technique very hard, so he practiced the basic skills of the swordsmith very solidly.
Qin Wu's previous comprehension may not be as good as now, but it is also very amazing, so it has been almost more than ten years since he started to learn swords, and it is almost this time for him to learn to forge swords. It is completely conceivable that with Qin Wu's comprehension, he will definitely be able to make his sword-forging skills reach a very high level.
Qin Wu began to make preparations, the countless forgings made him seem very calm, and the basic preparations were very easy.
Master Nian's face was calm, Qin Wu's preparation was nothing to be faulted with, from this alone, it could be seen that Qin Wu had definitely learned the sword casting technique, and it seemed that he also had very solid basic skills. Of course, looking at a person's basic skills is not just about preparation, if you want to become a strong swordsmith, sword forging is the real key.
The preparations were completed, Qin Wu reached into his waist and took out the sword inserted in his waist.
"Haha! This is your sword? Haha! It's too ugly, with your level of forging a sword, I can change it. ”
Tong Wu had always been silent, but when he saw Qin Wu's sword at this moment, he couldn't help it. The sword created by Qin Wu was so ugly that he couldn't help but laugh when he looked at it.
"Even your eyesight is still forging swords, don't tarnish the swordsmith's profession. ”
Master Nian pursed his lips at Tong Wu with disdain, and the disdain in his eyes was too obvious.
"My eyesight is bad, and I can tell at a glance whether this sword is bad or not. ”
Tong Wu was a little annoyed, although Master Nian was a sword forging master and he had asked for help, but he couldn't stand the other party's disdainful eyes.
"Say you're an idiot, don't believe it, this sword is a little bit off in sale, but it's definitely a good sword. ”
The look of disdain on the big man's face became more and more intense.
"Good sword?"
Looking at the sword in Qin Wu's hand, the corner of Tong Wu's mouth twitched, this time he learned smartly, and he didn't refute the words of the big man, otherwise he would be scolded as an idiot again.
Qin Wu didn't pay attention to the old and young next to him, but focused on the work at hand, recasting has high technical requirements, fortunately, it is not the first time he has done it.
Qin Wu didn't start at the first time, he closed his eyes, and recalled all his feelings about the sword in his mind.
In the past, Qin Wu could not use force like a normal person to forge a sword, so his sword-forging method completely relied on pure sword-casting techniques. As the prince of King Qin, it was indeed very difficult in the imperial city, but it was still very easy for him to learn advanced sword-casting skills, because there were countless people who helped him solve problems.
Crafting a sword is definitely a very simple task, but it is very difficult to create a sword that fully integrates one's knowledge of the sword. If he just used a simple sword-forging technique, Qin Wu would definitely be able to create a very exquisite sword, but it would be very difficult to create a sword that could fully integrate his understanding of the sword.
In fact, Qin Wu's sword is really as Master Nian said, it just looks very ugly on the outside, in fact, every trace of the sword is exquisite, this is a kind of structural system that Qin Wu has obtained through many forgings that is suitable for himself.
If you want to use the words of a forger, Qin Wu's method of making the sword have an ugly texture is called modeling, which is not a simple and easy thing, and generally those who can comprehend the art of modeling are real blacksmiths, not apprentices, nor high-level blacksmiths.
A strange light appeared in Master Nian's eyes, he really didn't expect Qin Wu's forging technique to be able to reach this point, which really surprised him.
It wasn't too amazing for Qin Wu to be able to comprehend the art of sword casting, and it was only a matter of time before he could do it with his comprehension. What was really surprising was actually Qin Wu's forging technique, and Master Nian soon discovered that it seemed to be different from any forging technique he had ever seen.
This...... It's really interesting.
Master Nian's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he found that Qin Wu's forging was very special, and there was an absolute difference from the traditional sword-forging technique.
Could this be a new system of swordsmithing?
Master Nian couldn't help but be curious, as a sword-casting master, there was nothing more exciting than seeing a brand-new sword-casting technique, so he was now looking forward to Qin Wu's forging.
