Chapter 248: Trying to Forge 5
Because the earthen stove made last time can be used, so this time Zhou Ran made a full 10 earthen stoves according to the previous style, of course, this time he only made 3 exactly the same style as the last time, and the remaining 7 have been more or less improved, but it is not certain that before it is completely air-dried and tried, he is not sure whether it can be regarded as an improvement or a change.
It took Zhou Ran almost a day to build all 10 earthen stoves, and the remaining little time he built two large bamboo sheds, one of which could cover five earthen stoves, to ensure that these earthen stoves would not be damaged by rain.
The matter of the earthen oven came to an end for the time being, and it was a few days before this thing dried, Zhou Ran didn't have time to squat next to the earthen stove, so he waited for him to dry, he said hello to the others, and returned to his carpentry room to begin to study the carpentry skills.
During this period of time, his two skills in handicraft and carpentry have basically reached the peak of the mastery level, and it is estimated that he will not be able to improve too much if he continues to advance, so he plans to raise these two abilities to the peak of the mastery level and give up continuing to study, anyway, it will definitely not be improved for a period of time, and if he wants to study further, he will wait until he enters the Beacon Age to study again, and these two abilities at the mastery level are enough to make some things at ordinary times.
After two or three days of creating all kinds of jewelry in the workshop, it took such a long time, Zhou Ran basically used up nearly half of the wood-related building materials, of course, these building materials are basically blue light, purple light and golden light He has basically not used much so far, but at his current level, if he uses purple light or even golden light materials, there is still a certain probability that he can make Hong-level equipment.
It's just that now everyone doesn't lack high-level equipment at hand, or even if it is given one or two high-level equipment, the strength will not be so significantly improved, after all, it is only Hong-level equipment, and it is not heaven-level equipment, and there is only one level difference between Hong-level equipment and wild-level equipment, if the quality of the two is higher and the other is lower, then the gap between them will be even smaller.
After a few more days, he walked out of the bamboo shed, Zhou Ran rubbed his eyes, and then walked towards the river while yawning, as of the last time he finished making the earthen stove, it has been 4 days until today, and those earthen stoves should have been dried.
When Zhou Ran arrived at the river, he found that it was the same as he imagined, only two of them that he had deliberately thickened the thickness of the earthen stove, and after poking his hand into it, he could barely feel a trace of very faint moisture, and the remaining 8 were basically no longer a problem.
Fortunately, the two deliberately thickened earthen ovens were all on the edge, Zhou Ran simply ignored them, he planned to try the situation of these 8 earthen furnaces first, this time after the earthen furnaces were made, Zhou Ran had a lot of things to build, and a very large amount of metal had to be melted.
Scrapped two earthen furnaces in one breath, there was no deliberately improved earthen furnace, and sure enough, there was still the same problem as last time that it would be completely destroyed after only one use, and the previous earthen furnace was damaged, Zhou Ran was making the second batch of earthen furnaces, and he also thought about whether it was because he had not smelted much steel, so the temperature of the input internal gas was too high, which led to the fact that the earthen furnace was so unbuilt.
Just making liquid metal once led to complete destruction, so when he used these earthen furnaces this time, he also restrained the strength of the internal qi he input a little, but even so, it only melted the metal once, and these earthen furnaces were completely destroyed.
Now you don't have to think about it, most of the damage to the earthen stove last time has little to do with him, or because of the durability of the earthen furnace itself, but after understanding this, Zhou Ran knew that the next time he was making an earthen furnace, he could no longer imitate this basic style of the earthen stove, and there were still some problems in terms of durability.
This time, after the earthen furnace was lost by two, the whole 4 pieces of liquid metal that were melted out, Zhou Ran didn't plan to do anything else, he planned to use these liquid metals to make a medicine furnace first.
However, if you want to use metal to make a medicine furnace, it is not as simple as using other materials, and the liquid metal after smelting the metal cannot directly make a medicine furnace, after all, he does not have a pair of iron hands now, and if he touches these liquid metals directly, the consequences will be very tragic.
So Zhou Ran chose a stupid method, that is, to make a lot of special molds first, and then inject liquid metal into these molds to form parts of the metal medicine house.
The strength of his current internal qi, if it is transformed into that kind of extremely high temperature, such as incineration or red lotus, the temperature of the internal qi can reach close to 1000 degrees in a short period of time, and there is no problem just by melting the bronze.
When the time comes, he will assemble these metal molds together, and in the middle of the combined part, his fingers can continuously release high-heat internal gas, which basically plays the role of a welding torch, welding all these parts together.
It can only be said that being poor is flexible, such a difficult problem, Zhou Ran actually came up with a barely reasonable method, all the liquid metal was injected into each mold, Zhou Ran rubbed his little hands and began to wait patiently.
The number of these liquid metals is quite a lot, and the molds are also divided into more than 20 by it, if you want to wait for all these molds to solidify, it will take some time, Zhou Ran originally did not plan to waste this time, but he thought about it, if he uses this time to smelt new metals, then when the new metals melt into liquid metal, these molds are almost completed, in case something goes wrong in the middle, he may not have time to deal with the problem of liquid metals and molds, So he decided to take a break.
After waiting for half an hour, Zhou Ran also transformed his internal qi attribute several times, and converted his internal qi into the internal qi of the ice attribute to cool these molds, he was indeed a little anxious to wait, and the cooling was not completely ineffective, it would have taken about several hours to complete the cooling mold, but it was quickly completed in Zhou Ran's acceleration state.
Smashing the soil on the outside of these molds, Zhou Ran picked up the components of the bronze medicine furnace one after another, he assembled these parts together and checked them left and right, and after making sure that there was no problem, he raised his left hand, and all the internal qi was transformed into the characteristics of the red lotus, and his left hand, which was glowing with a scorching red light, was pasted between the gaps in the metal mold, and began to weld.
