Chapter 177: Sword Forging

Originally, the inspection of the carved works is very simple, the carver carves the good lines according to the requirements, and hands it over to the owner of the appliance, he gives it a try, as long as he thinks the effect is good.

But now this kind of test is not appropriate, because people's consciousness, preferences and other factors will affect the reasonableness of the test.

To put it bluntly, that's how easy it is to cheat.

As a simple example, even if the same person were to chop two sword blanks with a stone, one person could cut with full force and the other pretended to use full force, and the other would see a world of difference.

There are some reasons that are hard to say, such as receiving a gift, such as not liking someone, etc.

Therefore, it was really troublesome to inspect the carved works of Xiao Ge and Nie Yi, and finally the referee team decided to mark the two sword blanks with the player's hidden mark, and then numbered them A and B, and presented them to the judges.

The referee only knows the number, but does not know whose work it is, and then takes turns to inspect and record the results of the sword blanks, and finally the total number of sword blanks wins.

Seven of the ten judges were martial artists, and Eunuch Hu asked them to be the test judges.

The seven people tried the sword blank in turn, and although the methods used were different, they were nothing more than smashing and slashing.

The seventh referee was Zhou Cang, who had a whim to use the sword blank to smash the boulder, but the No. B sword blank broke, and the No. A sword blank was unharmed due to its softness.

In the end, the seven referees all gave the No. A sword blank as excellent.

After inspecting the imprint, the No. A sword blank was Xiao Ge's work, so it was no surprise that Xiao Ge won.

"It's all scrap wood!"

After losing three games in a row, Chai Long couldn't hold it on his face, this was all the soul cultivation masters he invited from various states at a high price, and he was completely defeated like this.

Chai Long's whining words aroused Fang Xuzhong's fighting spirit, and he swore and said: "Sect Master Chai, my Xu Zhong is a third-grade intermediate caster, with me on the horse, Xiao Ge will be defeated!"

After speaking, regardless of Chai Long's questioning or praise, he walked directly to Xiao Ge and said domineeringly: "Stinky boy, Hugh is arrogant, let's cast swords, compare swords!"

Xiao Geben was talking with Wu Duo, and when he heard Fang Xuzhong's impolite words, he wanted to fight back, but Wu Duo took over the conversation and said softly: "Oh, Fang Gongzi, if you are cheap, you won!"

Actually took the initiative to admit defeat?

Fang Xuzhong didn't believe his ears, he stared at Wuduo and said, "What you said is the truth?"

"Yes, I want to be cheaper than Fang Gongzi, everyone present sighed to themselves, willing to bow down!"

Wuduo smiled and said: "It is said that Fang Gongzi has a deep attainment in cheapness, and has surpassed the point of the unity of people and cheapness, reaching the point of having no cheapness in his hands and being cheap in his heart. That is, the legend is an invincible slut in the world!"

Fang Xuzhong didn't turn the corner, and thought that Wu Duo was praising him for his high sword-forging skills, but who knew that his face was full of use and was instantly banned by laughter.

"How dare you •••••• insult me!"

After turning a corner, Fang Xuzhong jumped like thunder, but he didn't dare to scold Wuduo with swear words.

He has seen the strength of the five flowers, in the gesture, the wind blows the willow into a pig's head, if he makes the second, it is the second pig's head.

After saying something unimposing, Fang Xuzhong said viciously to Xiao Ge: "Stinky boy, what kind of man are you hiding behind a woman, you have a kind of sword forging with me!"

When I'm a good bully!

Xiao Ge stopped, he glared at Fang Xuzhong, and said angrily: "You slut looking for a smoking, isn't it? If you commit a cheap crime again, the master will beat you into a dead dog!"

Xiao Ge stepped forward, Fang Xuzhong was so frightened that he retreated and avoided it, and he didn't dare to speak again.

Xiao Ge walked up to Chai Long, stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Sect Master Chai, are the spirit stones ready?"

Chai Long had already thought of the reason for repaying the debt, his eyes widened, and he asked angrily: "You still have the face to ask for money? What did you do to beat Nie Yi, don't you have a spectrum in your heart? Nie Yi is the guest invited by my Flying Fish Sect, it's not that you can fight if you want to, just forget it after the fight." If this is not a competition, you must be good-looking! This sect master is not as knowledgeable as you, the spirit stone of this game will pay Nie Yi's medical expenses, let's clear the two!"

"Sect Master Chai, I knew you were a leper dog, and you wanted to rely on my hard-earned money for any reason. Was it my fault for beating Nie Yi? It was he who begged me to beat him, and I came to his aid. Besides, he deliberately messed with my carving•••••• don't talk nonsense with you!"

Xiao Ge turned around and walked to the referee's seat, bowed down and said sadly: "Please make decisions for me, Chai Long relies on my hard-earned money for unwarranted reasons, and I won't compete in the next games!"

Many people in the referee team were eager for Gongye to win, and when they saw Xiao Ge say this, they were already happy in their hearts.

Push the dog off the water's edge and beat it again.

The referees began to talk about the basis for judging Xiao Ge to win, what is the old rule of three wins in five games, and what one side can rely on the other side to rely on the game, and so on.

Chai Long knew that no matter how much he complained to the referee team, he would not speak for him, but if he didn't give money now, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

He angrily asked his subordinates to send 300,000 spirit stones over, Xiao Ge smiled and put them away, and then said in a loud voice: "In view of Sect Master Chai's continuous tricks, I request that the remaining 600,000 spirit stones be pressed on President Hu first, otherwise I will refuse to compete!"

"Vexatious!"

As soon as Chai Long finished speaking, Eunuch Hu answered: "If you are happy, why should this kid make such a decision!"

Get!

The referee pulled the shelf, and it was useless for him to say how much he said, so Chai Long had no choice but to hand over 600,000 spirit stones to Eunuch Hu.

He said viciously to Xiao Ge: "I hope you have the ability to win 600,000 spirit stones!"

"We will live up to Sect Master Chai's expectations!"

Before Xiao Ge's words fell, Chai Long was so angry that he stomped his feet, hating himself for talking too much, and inexplicably gave Xiao Ge a tease, making Xiao Ge shake off the burden of his life.

Everyone moved again and went to the Qingzhou Martial Arts Institute Casting Workshop to watch the game.

The sword casting process is complicated, and the first step is to make a model, that is, the mold for casting the sword. This does not require the two of them to work hard, the martial arts academy has a good mold, so at this step, the two of them are standing on a unified starting line.

The materials provided by the Martial Academy for forging swords are bluestone copper crystals, as well as other trace amounts of added materials.

The two of them are both three-grade casters, and they are familiar with the sword casting process, so they immediately began to adjust.

The so-called dispensing is to investigate the composition in the bluestone copper crystal before smelting the bluestone copper crystal, check the gaps, make a reasonable ratio of raw materials, and add trace materials for allocation.

Don't underestimate this detail, this is the key link in determining the performance of the sword cast.

For example, tin can improve the hardness and strength of the sword, but too much tin will make the sword brittle and easy to break.

Another example is that a small amount of lead can regulate the casting and processing properties of bluestone copper crystals, but too much lead will reduce the hardness and strength of the sword.

All this knowledge was in Xiao Ge's mind, and he didn't listen to the teachings of the three masters in the Soul Courtyard, so what to make up and how much to make up were all in his calculations.

After doing this, start loading the furnace for melting.

The reason why some casters have not been able to improve their lives is because they believe that smelting is the melting of the casting material into a liquid state, and this is their Achilles' heel.

Melting melts the material while removing impurities and excess components contained in it.

It is impossible for the human eye to see the molecules inside the material, which means that impurities and excess components cannot be seen, and a clever caster can judge whether it is smelted or not by observing the heat.

The black turbidity is exhausted, the yellow and white is exhausted, and the green and white are exhausted, and only the green and white gas appears, indicating that the impurities and excess matter are vaporized, and then the residue is removed and ready for casting.

That's where the fire comes from.

The smelting fire must also be controlled within a range, too low is not easy to remove impurities, too high will cause the active ingredients to vaporize or oxidize.

If Xiao Ge is smelted with demon fire, not to mention the active ingredients in the material, it is estimated that even the impurities will be burned out.

Then the melt is poured into the sword fan, and after it cools and solidifies, the sword blank is formed.

After that, scraping and pondering, the surface of the sword blank is smooth and smooth, and the blade is sharpened.

Then there is the subtlety, which needs to be carved with the sword pattern, so the caster also has to know some knowledge of the carver.

Xiao Ge is familiar with the road, carved on the sword, carved the blade, quenched and tempered the sword successfully.

After the sword was successfully cast, he began to test the sword, needless to say, Xiao Ge's sword was not a little stronger.

In the fourth game, Xiao Ge won again.

"Xiao Ge, come and get your 300,000 spirit stones!"

"Thank you, President Hu, you keep it for me first, and when you win the next game, you will receive it together!"

Eunuch Hu was full of smiles, just like looking at his grandson, and his eyes were full of kindness.

He liked Xiao Ge too much.

Polite, talented, and most importantly, so relieved.
