Chapter Eighty-Nine: Make a weapon for Xiao Qingya
"Star Steel?"
Looking at the dozen or so black ores the size of watermelons that Xiao Qingya took out, and feeling that the ores were shining like stars in the night sky under the sunlight, Xiao Yao couldn't help frowning and asked uncertainly.
He had never seen Xingchen Steel, but Xiao Yao had heard his father Xiao Qingfeng talk about the characteristics of this ore. From his father, he also learned that Xingchen steel is the most resilient ore, and the weapons made are extremely sharp and not easy to break.
However, because it is extremely rare, the price is relatively much more expensive. Of course, compared with the spirit stone, the price of Xingchen Steel is much cheaper.
Generally speaking, no one is willing to take a whole piece of star steel as a weapon. It's not worth spending so much money for an ordinary weapon that is not used very often.
Therefore, experienced blacksmiths will dope a little Stellar Steel with the blade, blade, or spear head to increase the sharpness of the weapon, if the price is right.
"Uh-huh!"
Qingya nodded, noncommittal to Xiao Yao's words, "Make a sword!" The size, style, and weight of the sword, you can look at it yourself." Still, I want the best. Otherwise...... Hey, hey!"
The little hand reached out, clenched into a fist, and gently smashed Xiao Yao's head twice, the meaning was naturally self-evident.
"It's all a one-star martial arts sect, I just have the courage to dare to offend your old man?"
Xiao Yao couldn't help but roll his eyes at her, feeling that the two of them were more familiar, and he rarely joked, and he joked with Xiao Qingya.
Xiao Qingya pursed her lips and smiled, her beautiful eyes curved into crescent moons, "Master Xiao Yao, please!"
"Now, in such a hurry?"
Xiao Yao was stunned again, forging a good weapon not only consumes time, but also consumes energy, where is there anything you say you want?
"Tonight, your gambling game with Lei Xiao opens, and I have to go back to Yewu City!"
"Open tonight?"
Xiao Yao was shocked and suspicious, "I slept for two and a half days?"
"Hee-hee!"
Xiao Qingya playfully spit out her little fragrant tongue and said apologetically: "I'm worried that I won't be able to knock you out, so ...... It's a little bit heavier!Excuse me?"
Smiling gently, Xiao Yao's eyes were clear and gentle, and his big hand reached out unceremoniously, and under Xiao Qingya's slightly stunned gaze, he patted her delicate and smooth little face dotingly, and said with a smile:
"It's okay!"
With that, he came to the forging table, lit the fire, and put the largest piece of star steel on it, and then pulled up the bellows with "huhu".
"Poof!"
The blazing flames jumped up, and soon the red turned blue, and the ore on it was calcined by the high temperature, and the sparks were everywhere, which showed that the ore had more impurities.
It wasn't until the ore was burned red that Xiao Yao stopped pulling the bellows, and the residual temperature was calcined for a while, and then he took it down with a big clamp and put it on the forging table.
"Drink!"
With a long sigh, Xiao Yao stood there motionless, his face was calm, his eyes were firm, the forging hammer in his hand was slightly pushed forward, he snorted, his body turned slightly, his two soles were tightly pressed to the ground, and his two calves were so tight in an instant, and the whole person was like a beast ready to attack.
"Brother Xiao Yao......"
Xiao Qingya muttered, her beautiful eyes were a little obsessed, she liked to see Xiao Yao's serious appearance, she was simply cool and handsome.
"You must make the best weapon for Sister Qingya!" "His face suddenly turned pale, and his calf exerted force, and then teleported to his waist, and then to his right arm, raised it high, and then swung it down.
"Bang dang!"
With a loud bang, sparks splashed everywhere, and this piece of ore the size of a watermelon was immediately smashed out of a deep pit.
When the hammer bounced up due to the reaction, Xiao Yao suddenly turned around, still using his calf to exert force, and the forging hammer that rebounded was picked up by him again, drawing a wonderful arc in mid-air, with a strong wind, and smashed on the ore again, this time not only the speed was extremely fast, but the force seemed to be a few points stronger than the first blow.
"Bell, bell!"
Each stroke was perfect, and each time the force was a few points stronger than the last one, but Xiao Yao's legs were like wooden stakes nailed into the ground, and he didn't move.
What's even more amazing is that the piece of ore that has been beaten into a discus keeps turning with the flying of the forging hammer, as if dancing gracefully on the forging table.
"This ......"
Seeing this scene, several old people who were originally watching from a distance couldn't help but widen their eyes, and they were full of surprise.
The next moment, under the leadership of the white-robed old man, they walked over together, staring at Xiao Yao without blinking.
But Xiao Yao seemed to have entered a state of selflessness, as if he didn't see the old men who suddenly appeared, the forging hammer in his hand was getting faster and faster, and the ore was pounding like a storm, making it change into various shapes.
It didn't take long for the original watermelon-sized ore to become the size of a fist in Xiao Yao's hands, dark in color, and the stars on it were shining, like stars embedded in the night sky, which was fascinating.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yao put away the hammer and stood up, picked up a piece of ore again, put it in the middle of the stove, and pulled up the bellows again. The red flames burst up, and in the blink of an eye, they turned blue.
And when Xiao Qingya saw that Xiao Yao was sweating, she took out a towel from the spirit ring, walked over, and gently wiped it for him.
Sakura's lips swayed a happy arc, as if his wife was wiping her beloved husband, without the slightest artificiality, her expression was natural, and her deep concern couldn't help but emerge between her eyebrows.
Seeing this warm picture, several old people's eyes lit up at the same time, and there was a trace of waves in their always calm eyes, but they were fleeting.
Wiping the sweat on her face, Xiao Qingya flashed to the side very obediently, looking at Xiao Yao with a focused expression with watery tender eyes.
"Brother Xiao Yao, come on, you are the best, you must make the best weapon?"
Under Xiao Qingya's blessed and expectant gaze, time passed minute by minute, and the sky gradually darkened, and more than a dozen pieces of star steel ore the size of watermelons became the size of a quarter of a watermelon in Xiao Yao's continuous purification and fusion.
Several old people at the scene can be said to be masters of forging, and they know that in the process of calcination and purification, there are often cracks in the process of excessive beating and fusion of ores.
In this case, using it to craft a weapon has a high chance of breaking the weapon directly. Even if a weapon is successfully crafted, due to the existence of the rift, it will not be able to withstand the external pressure when it cools down or when it fights with the opponent's weapon, and it will crack or even break.
But the ore in front of him was very complete, as if it had been extracted from a piece of ore, without the slightest crack, and there was no sign of fusion at all.
Even for an experienced blacksmith like them, it would be quite difficult to do this. As a result, everyone tries to craft weapons from a single piece of ore as much as possible, rarely fusing them. Fusing more than a dozen ores together, they firmly believed that they would never be able to achieve such perfection as Xiao Yao.
Because, when they saw the only quarter of the ore the size of a watermelon left on the forging table, their eyes flashed with shock at the same time. But the next moment, that shock was replaced by anticipation.
They wanted to know what kind of ability the young man in front of him, who had recently become famous, to be able to win Xiao Qingya's favor, and in a short period of time, he captured her heart.
"Seemingly...... It's a little bit short!"
Xiao Yao muttered, pondering for a moment, he pressed the idea of saving some materials and making a knife for himself, and decided to purify it again, and he must create the most perfect weapon for Xiao Qingya.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, once again put the ore into the center of the fire, pulled the bellows, and calcined it again.
"Still want to purify?"
Everyone's hearts trembled, it was already perfect, in purification, the chance of a crack was very high, didn't he know this?
But immediately, they were relieved when they thought that Xiao Yao was only a teenager less than eighteen years old. However, no one stood up to warn them, and no one chose to leave.
Master leads the way and cultivates in the individual, and only by constantly learning from the experience of failure can we go further. Perhaps, he could really bring this seemingly perfect ore to the point of perfection?
At this time, Xiao Qingya showed a look of crying and laughing, just the money from these ores can buy a high-grade spiritual weapon of the red level.
But Xiao Yao only created a weapon, although it was made of Xingchen Steel, but it was also an ordinary weapon, and it couldn't be compared with a spiritual weapon at all. Known as the "black-hearted little rich woman", she suddenly had a feeling of losing a lot.
However, Xiao Qingya knew that if she said that she could use these ores to make two, five, or even ten weapons, Xiao Yao could also make them, but that was not the best.
Therefore, she quickly regained her composure and quietly looked forward to the appearance of this peerless divine weapon. Xiao Qingya firmly believed that the weapon that Xiao Yao had created for her with all his might would definitely be a hundred times better than that knife. Sending it home will definitely make her father's jaw drop.
She has this confidence in Xiao Yao, and those incomparably firm black eyes have already told Xiao Qingya all this.
"Bell!"
It didn't take long for Xiao Yao to purify again, with his legs with his waist, with his belt on his back, and with his arms, with a "bell", the forging hammer smashed heavily on the red ore.
However, unlike before, when the forging hammer bounced up due to the reaction force, Xiao Yao, who was originally standing still, turned around suddenly, still using his calf to exert force, and the rebounding hammer had already been picked up by him, dancing a wonderful arc in the air.
"Whew!"
With a strong wind, there was a loud "bell" and it fell on the ore again, and the blow was not only amazingly fast, but also seemed to be a few points stronger than ever.
The forging hammer rebounded high, and Xiao Yao's movements and the amplitude of the hammer seemed to have reached a perfect fit.
Not sooner or later, just at the moment when the hammer was about to reach its highest point, the body drove the hammer to circle around and smashed down again......
