Chapter Ninety-Four: Sacrificial Sword!
The flames in the forge are blazing, and the dancing flames are blue at times, yellow at times, and red again. The temperature in the forge also rises and falls as the color of the flame changes.
The rhythmic sound of "jingle bell" was also cleaned up in the backyard, and it was constantly heard in a room that served as a forging room. In this room, the floor is littered with rough blanks of metal parts.
And now what Xia Jinming is forging in his hands are the black stones he picked back. These stones, through his constant beating and calcination, have shown their true colors. It turned out to be a variety of rare ores, many of which are peerless treasures.
While calcining, Xia Jinming sighed in his heart the master's love for him. Although he was angry at first and cut off his hand, he was given all the treasures later.
But now what he thinks about most is what the master said, he has learned the master's stunt, but he doesn't feel that he has learned anything!
Although he felt that he had not learned the master's stunt in his heart, Xia Jinming was still very confident that Xiao Rui's knife had been forged for him, so he was able to readily agree.
After three days of trials, Xia Jinming regained his confidence. In the manor, except for Uncle Lin, all the servants were shocked, they didn't know that their master was actually a master blacksmith. What surprised them even more was that their master's hand, which had been broken for several years, had grown again!
Xia Jinming is also full of praise for his pair of novices. In the past, when he was forging, due to the long holding of hammers and iron tools, the palms and fingertips of his hands were ground into thick calluses, which made it difficult for him to grasp some fine parts.
And now these hands, although the skin is very delicate, but not as delicate as the surface, I have been holding the hammer for the past two days, and there are constantly hot iron filings splashed on the back of the hand, but these hands are as if they are cast in copper and iron, and they are not damaged at all.
The delicate skin on the tips of his fingers is very sensitive to him when he touches some delicate parts, so that he can quickly find blemishes for quick correction.
Today is the fourth day, that is, the day when Xia Jinming is preparing to forge the magic knife for Xiao Rui, and the people in the manor have started preparing early. And Xiao Rui drew the original appearance of the magic knife body to Xia Jinming the next day.
After breakfast, several servants lit the charcoal that had been prepared long ago in the forging furnace, and put all the materials needed in the most suitable position under the command of Xia Jinming, so that they could be used at any time during forging.
Xia Jin came to the forging room early tomorrow, and his complexion was very good today. Although he kept tempering all kinds of metals for three days in a row, it was as if he was tempering himself. Not only is it not tired at all, but it looks even more energetic!
Looking at his brother's energetic appearance, Xia Keming was also very happy. came here early to help command the servants to prepare, and he also took the initiative to apply to be a deputy to help his brother forge the magic knife together.
Because there is indeed no one else in the manor who can forge, and Xia Keming has studied with Xia Jinming after all, and he can be regarded as a forger, so Xia Jinming did not refuse and directly approved his request.
Xiao Rui and Luo Hong also came over early, and after arriving, Xiao Rui took out the magic knife and handed it to Xia Jinming. Xia Jinming took it in his hand and re-examined it for a long time, and touched it on the magic knife with some ore, which seemed to be more suitable for comparing that kind of metal material.
After the flames in the forge were completely burning, Xia Jinming showed a trace of excitement on his face, and said to Xiao Rui: "Now I'm going to start!"
Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Okay, the third brother will make a move, it must be no problem!"
Everyone also nodded yes, and Uncle Lin also took the lead in applauding and said, "The third master will make a move, and he will succeed!" All the servants also cheered loudly, cheering for Xia Jinming.
Experiencing the enthusiastic support of everyone, the excitement on Xia Jinming's face became even stronger, and he nodded at Xia Keming: "Sixth, let's start!" Xia Keming grinned and shouted loudly: "Okay!" After speaking, he pulled up the bellows vigorously, making the fire in the forging furnace even more intense.
Xia Jinming put several selected ores and metals into the forging furnace very neatly, holding a pair of tongs in his hand, and kept rummaging. After a while, when the ores and metals in the forge had turned red, Xia Jinming put the magic knife in it.
Xiao Rui was also very nervous at this time, he didn't know what would happen when the magic knife was forged, and whether the sword venerable would be affected. So he entered the depths of his own sea of consciousness and found the sword venerable there.
At this time, Daozun seemed to be a little sluggish, Xiao Rui didn't know if it was because the body was put into the fire to be calcined, or because Daozun was trying his best to control the huge ball, anyway, he looked at Daozun was a little different from usual. After thinking about it, Xiao Rui quietly retreated and watched Xia Jinming forge carefully.
At this time, the magic knife had also turned red, and it had been bonded to the materials that had been in the forge furnace. Xia Jinming said to Xia Keming: "Put away the fire!" After speaking, he took the fire tongs in his left hand, and took out the magic knife and the materials that were glued together, and put them on the anvil beside him.
He picked up a small hammer in his right hand and first knocked on the surface of the materials, knocking off some of the charcoal fire residue that had stuck to them. At this time, Xia Keming had also come to the anvil, but he had a sledgehammer in his hand.
Xia Jinming's eyes kept staring at the anvil, the red magic knife and various materials. Sensing that Xia Keming was coming, he raised the small hammer in his hand and smashed it at the junction between the magic knife and the material.
When his hammer smashed into the connection, the hammer in Xia Keming's hand was already raised. When Xia Jinming's little hammer bounced, the hammer in Xia Keming's hand just fell down and smashed into the place where the small hammer hit.
Xia Keming's sledgehammer bounced after it was smashed, Xia Jinming's sledgehammer just fell, the small hammer bounced, and the sledgehammer fell.
"Ding", "Ding", "Ding", "The two brothers cooperated very tacitly, and there was no conflict. And every time Xia Keming's sledgehammer lands, it is Xia Jinming's sledgehammer.
Xiao Rui watched it from the sidelines, and he was also in admiration. At the same time, it can be seen that Xia Jinming is pointing out the part of the hammer for Xia Keming, and at the same time, his left hand is constantly rummaging the fire tongs in his hand, so that the force of the magic knife and the material can be even.
And Xia Keming is only responsible for contributing, as long as he hits the hammer according to his brother's landing point. With his current cultivation as a high-level divine master, this requirement is not difficult.
When the color of the magic knife was slightly gray, Xia Jinming took the hammer and put the magic knife and materials back into the forge furnace. Xia Keming hurriedly ran and quickly pulled the bellows, and the fire burned quickly.
After several temperings, the irregular shape at the front end of the magic knife, which was originally composed of various materials, has become the original appearance of the magic knife. It's just a rough look, but it still needs to be carefully polished.
At this time, Xia Jinming let Xia Keming leave, and he personally pulled up the bellows, but his eyes were always staring at the magic knife in the forging furnace. As the bellows are pulled faster and slower, the temperature in the furnace starts to go up and down.
Everyone knew that this was a critical moment, and they couldn't help but consciously shut their mouths and stopped talking, just staring at Xia Jinming tightly, watching his every move.
Xia Jinming pulled the bellows with his left hand, picked up the tongs with his right hand, and put the most precious ores that were originally placed around him into the furnace one by one.
At this time, Xiao Rui seemed to feel a little strange, and felt that an unusual power seemed to have been produced in the furnace, and this power seemed to be growing.
After Xia Jinming put those pieces of ore in them, he quickly took out the magic knife again, and this time he used a small hammer to beat it at a fast speed.
The people next to him couldn't even tell what part he was hitting, but Xiao Rui and Luo Hong used their split souls to lock directly on the magic knife so that they could see the landing point of the small hammer.
Xiao Rui couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that no matter what line of work, there can be some unexpected things. The reason why Xia Jinming was able to beat at such a fast speed must have been tempered countless times before he could do it.
Soon, Xia Jinming sent the magic knife into the forge again, continued to pull the bellows, and took it out again after a while to continue beating.
After several repetitions, Xia Jinming finally put the magic knife into the forge furnace and no longer took it out, but continued to pull the bellows, so that the fire reached the maximum. The temperature in the forge had reached its highest point, and the color of the magic knife had turned from red to a little whitish at this time.
At this time, several servants outside the house suddenly began to talk: "Alas, is it going to rain this day?
"yes, I haven't seen the clouds just now, so why is it so dark?"
Uncle Lin and the others also came out to look at the sky, and sure enough, the sky that was still shining in the morning was now cloudy, and there were occasional rumbling thunders in the distance.
At this time, Xia Jinming suddenly said to Xia Keming: "Go and bring Wang Jun and them over!" and his hand was still pulling the bellows quickly. The expression on his face was very solemn
Xiao Rui's heart moved, but he didn't say anything, because he felt that the power he had just felt seemed to have reached its peak, as if it was about to explode.
Xia Keming quickly brought Wang Jun and the others over, Xia Jinming quickly pulled the bellows a few times, and the fire in the forging furnace quickly reached its peak, and Xiao Rui also felt that the power was about to burst out.
"Master, the disciple has avenged you!" Xia Jin roared suddenly, his right hand was useless even with fire tongs, but he reached directly into the forge furnace and held the handle of the magic knife. The knife was drawn out at once, and everyone only heard a "snort", and then they smelled a burnt smell.
Xia Jinming didn't seem to feel these at all, and the right hand holding the magic knife crossed an arc in the air, sweeping over the bodies of Wang Jun and the old man in Tsing Yi.
There was no sound, no blood spatter. Everyone just saw a patch of red, which was the color of the magic knife's blade being burned red. And Wang Jun and the old man in Tsing Yi fell to the ground instantly.
When their bodies fell to the ground, they were split into two parts from their chests at once, no, counting the fallen arms, it should be four parts!
And where they had been slashed by the knife, they were directly scorched, although the blood had been absorbed by the magic knife. But the cut off entrails did not roll out.
The room was instantly filled with the smell of burnt flesh and skin, and everyone hurriedly withdrew. Xia Jinming looked up at the sky, his eyes were full of tears, and he came outside the house and knelt down at the west.
His hand was still holding the magic knife, but his head had already slammed down: "Master, the disciple has avenged you, and sacrificed this knife with the blood of your murderer! The disciple now understands the stunt you said, and he will definitely pass on your stunt in the future!"
