"No, I think this room is fine. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Looking at the room, Mo Yi said sincerely.
Elder Void Heart shook his head slightly, and said with a light smile: "Anyway, you will soon enter the time when you want your own private space, put down your luggage; ”
"Yes, master. Mo Yi nodded as he spoke, and began to put down his burden and the setting moon, and then untied the standard longsword from his back.
"Your sword doesn't seem to be a cult thing. As he spoke, the weak-hearted elder picked up the moon and pulled it out gently.
Seeing that his master was watching the sunset, Mo Yi couldn't help but have a little nostalgia on his face and explained: "This sword is called 'Xiyue', and it was a gift from my adoptive father, Uncle Gang, to me. ”
"Oh, it's a good sword, but it's very rare for the average person. Elder Void Heart flicked the blade of the sword, and then said softly, and then said with a little strange expression on his face: "This sword has a strong murderous aura, but it seems that it should be a new system and not stained with blood; ”
"Well, Uncle Gang said that he used the skills he learned from the ghost clan to forge the blood-stained remnant sword. Seeing that the master was strange, Mo Yi explained softly.
Nodding, the Elder of the Void Heart returned the sunset moon to Mo Yi, and then smiled lightly: "I've heard that the ghost clan will use human blood to refine evil things such as demon knives or directly add them to the furnace in the process of smelting, and there are similar records in ancient books; ”
"Uncle Gang said that reforging a blood-stained sword will increase its sharpness, but I haven't seen it before, after all, we don't use too many weapons around our town. Mo Yi thought for a moment what Li Gang said, and continued.
"We can try it next, and you can try to forge it yourself. The Void Heart Elder seemed to be interested, and said with a little expectation on his face.
Looking at his master's expression, Mo Yi couldn't help but open his mouth in fright, and asked with some timidity on his face, "Master, are we really going to kill people?"
"Naturally not, how can a teacher be such a cruel person. Blood may be useful, but human blood is pure, and a lot of animals are slaughtered in the canteen every day, so you can just go there and ask for some. Shaking his head, the weak-hearted elder was quite speechless at his apprentice's expression, and scolded with a casual smile.
"Oh. Mo Yi nodded, as long as it wasn't directly from human blood, he could accept it.
His master was an impatient, and he did what he thought of, and from time to time he was instructed to go to the canteen and bring back two buckets of all kinds of blood. The fire in the furnace was lit and the experiment began. He took Mo Yi to bring a few bags of iron sand from the basement and began to prepare, these are extremely high-quality iron sand, which is better than the self-produced in Lingxi Town, and the price is five Yi Qian per catty.
Turning out an ancient book, the master and apprentice began to try. In the morning, two furnaces were produced, one furnace was made of ordinary grass steel, and the other furnace was added with blood. Elder Void of Heart quickly used the same method to create two daggers, and since they were tested and the effect was not refined. It's just that after ordinary quenching, he let the two collide, and the dagger made of steel after adding blood is indeed stronger than the ordinary one, but the effect is not particularly obvious.
Next, he continued to create two of them, and the Elder of the Heart Void tried to refine the dagger with blood added to it in the blood, and this time the effect was obviously much more obvious. Collide again with a notch in the normal dagger, but the blood quenched intact. After obtaining this effect, the Elder of the Heart Void couldn't help but light up his eyes, and in the following week, the master and apprentice conducted experiments on the amount of blood used during smelting, the amount of blood used during forging, and the temperature of the furnace fire.
More than a dozen bags and thousands of pounds of iron sand were consumed throughout the process, and the final conclusion was that the blood was indeed effective. Not only the sharpness, but also the hardened steel will become very wear-resistant, so that the life of the weapon will be increased. During the whole process, Elder Void made a detailed forging note, and during this time, Mo Yi also tried to build a few daggers to practice his hands.
Although he is not lacking in strength, he can still only be regarded as a novice in terms of skills. Fortunately, there is enough waste here at his master, and he can keep practicing. Thanks to the fact that he had been relieved of his mission to become a true disciple, he never went to the lecture hall in the afternoon.
Literacy and hyphenation are handed in by the master in person in the water pavilion, and of course, there is also the calligraphy that his master stipulates that he needs to practice every day. After a month, he finally stopped drawing characters and could write fonts decently.
Time began to get tight, as he realized that he had so much to learn from his master. However, there is something that a very versatile master can't do, and that is cooking. Under normal circumstances, he would stuff Mo Yi with a bottle of dozens of marching pills to satisfy his hunger, and the concentration of the essence of the spring of cultivation every day was also increasing day by day.
After three months of apprenticeship, he finally took a second metamorphosis with the spring again, this time the lake was obviously more extensive and twice as large than the last time. The spring melted into the yellow sand, and the meadow became dense and widened. There are even small shrubs growing around the lake, and the area is already like an oasis in the yellow sand.
During this period, due to the re-increase in strength, his forging level has increased a lot, and he can already independently forge a long sword, and the hundred steels can also be controlled to be folded a hundred times in a hundred heats. Although he was a big step away from Shizun's requirement of fifty tempering and hundred forgings, he was already very satisfied.
Recently, he has become even more obsessed with Danqing, and it is naturally difficult to practice painting, but Shizun is humble and says that he is quite talented in this area. Although training calligraphy and painting did not achieve much in itself, Mo Yi found that his control over his strength was becoming stronger, and it became easier to calm down. This made him make a lot of progress in the Fufeng Sword Technique, which had not grown for a long time, and he also had a deeper understanding of rhythm mastery and strength harmony.
Senior Sister Lingyue still hasn't returned to the mountain, which makes him worry. However, she has already apprenticed, and her responsibility to guide people has been relieved, and Mo Yi can't help but feel a little more melancholy. It's been seven months since he came to Yixin Lingyun Pavilion, and he is just over ten years old. Compared to when he first arrived, he had grown a few inches taller, and he could already have a scalp taller than the setting moon.
This made him feel homesick for Lingxi Town, and he began to miss Uncle Gang very much.
Time went on, and he kept learning from his master. He learned all the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, but in the art of chess, the master criticized him harshly, saying that he was the least talented he had ever seen. However, this did not affect his love for it, although the master let him have nearly twenty sons, he still couldn't get down, but he still enjoyed it a little. In terms of music, he did not have much difficulty learning the same as paintings, and he could play four or five pieces proficiently in a few months.
After he studied painting for a period of time, he was able to copy the works of famous artists in a decent manner, and the master also began to teach him to draw construction drawings and mechanism construction drawings. For this reason, the master also took him to observe the inner door building on the Fufeng Stream, which he hadn't thought about, but after learning it, these two things were really interesting.
