Chapter Forty-Seven: Learning to Cast Iron Swords
After dinner, Ye Qingqiao was going to the refining room, and she deliberately made a big detour, for fear of being caught by Xuanxu. In fact, Xuanxu and his disciples were busy refining Baicao Dan and Guiyuan Dan, so how could they have time to care about her girl.
During this period of time, it was not very peaceful outside, and there were incidents of demons, ghosts, and demons hurting people everywhere, and the disciples of the Lingyin Sect went out more frequently, so the demand for this kind of recovery pill increased, so the alchemy room has been very busy recently.
Ye Qingqiao came to the refining room and saw that Xuan Miao was meditating and cultivating, and he didn't know whether to go in or out, so he hesitated outside for a long time.
Xuan Miao had long known that Ye Qingqiao was coming, but seeing that she had not dared to come in, for fear of disturbing his cultivation, her satisfaction with her had risen a lot, this kid had a good heart.
"Ahem, come in!" Xuan Miao exclaimed.
Ye Qingqiao saw that Xuan Miao was talking, and hurriedly entered the house.
"I heard that you blew up the oven at Xuanxu's place today?" Xuanmiao said deliberately.
"Uh...... Master ...... Ye Qingqiao scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Hmph, I haven't heard of Xuanxu's fryer over there for many years, that old thing was still showing off to me a few days ago, you have the ability, you only went to blow it up once!" Xuan Miao squinted at her and said.
"Master, will Master Xuanxu expel me from the master's door?" Ye Qingqiao asked Xuan Miao with a bitter face.
"I don't know if he will expel you from the school, but if you are so stupid with me, whether I will expel you, it's hard to say!" Xuan Miao said while standing up beside him.
Ye Qingqiao saw that Xuan Miao was up, so he hurriedly poured him a cup of tea and handed it over respectfully.
Xuan Miao glanced at her and took the tea, "Learn cast iron sword with me today." After speaking, he drank the tea and handed the teacup to Ye Qingqiao.
Ye Qingqiao smiled happily, and hurriedly took the mysterious teacup and put it away.
Xuan Miao first taught how to choose the material of the cast iron sword, and he taught Ye Qingqiao how to identify the purity of a piece of pig iron by looking, touching, and knocking.
Then, Xuan Miao asked Ye Qingqiao to choose a piece of fine pig iron in the mountain of material warehouse.
Ye Qingqiao opened his mouth wide and looked at this piece of pig iron, climbed to the top, identified it piece by piece, and felt that this piece met the requirements, so he took it out and showed it to Xuan Miao, Xuan Miao shook her head, so she took it back and put it away, and carefully identified it again. This was repeated hundreds of times, and finally the best piece of pig iron was found.
Next, Xuan Miao taught her how to melt iron, and only when the furnace reached a certain temperature could the pig iron be put into the furnace. Xuan Miao taught Ye Qingqiao to judge the heat by observing the color of the flames in the furnace, and Ye Qingqiao practiced this technique many times before he could barely grasp the heat that Xuan Miao said.
Because Ye Qingqiao's cultivation was not enough, he could not control the temperature of the furnace through his divine sense, so the heat could not be kept stable, so Xuan Miao taught Ye Qingqiao to use a trick to inject true qi into the furnace to keep the temperature of the furnace stable. Ye Qingqiao was very serious when he learned this trick, because in the afternoon, he fried the oven at Master Xuanxu's place, mostly because the trick was not done well, and he missed it by a millimeter, and it was thousands of miles away.
In the end, it is forging, Xuan Miao took out the fiery molten iron from the furnace, put it in the sword mold on the forging table, took it out after the pig iron was formed, and then took a big iron hammer, and constantly beat the red-hot pig iron, every time he beats, he will inject a spell, a total of seven hundred and forty-nine times, when the sword is soaked in the spiritual water, and then pulled out, an iron sword with mana is cast.
"Have you seen it clearly, now it's up to you to forge an iron sword!" Xuan Miao turned her head to look at Ye Qingqiao and said.
Ye Qingqiao nodded hurriedly, she had already seen it clearly, and every step was imprinted in her mind.
Xuan Miao nodded, signaling that Ye Qingqiao could start, and he walked next door to read.
Ye Qingqiao went through the process of casting the iron sword in his mind, and then started with confidence.
She first played the trick to control the temperature of the furnace to the heat that the master said, and immediately threw the selected good pig iron into the furnace.
Then he continued to play tricks, constantly inputting true qi, maintaining the temperature of the furnace, the pig iron slowly melted in the furnace, and the fiery flames kept beating, reflecting on Ye Qingqiao's roasted face, which was very good-looking.
The tip of Ye Qingqiao's nose was already sweating, but she was still carefully controlling the temperature of the furnace, and when she saw that the pig iron had completely turned into molten iron, she quickly took it out and poured it into the mold to wait for molding.
About half a tea time, Ye Qingqiao took the sledgehammer that the master had just used, ready to beat.
Why is it so heavy? She struggled to raise the sledgehammer and slammed it into the red-hot pig iron.
Bang! I knocked on the side!
She continued to reorient, lifting the sledgehammer again, and slamming it down again.
It's crooked again!
Ye Qingqiao lifted the hem of his clothes this time, took a horse step, gritted his teeth and raised the sledgehammer, and beat it down with all his might!
Finally hit the place, but the strength fell too hard, and the sword was punched into a pit!
Bang!
......
Bang! Now it's a sword bend!
Ye Qingqiao was completely speechless, looking at this sword, oh! No, it can't be called a sword! I don't know what the hell it is! She stroked her forehead and sighed, finally realizing that this refining weapon is really not something that can be refined casually!
Xuan Miao was reading the book next door, listening to Ye Qingqiao's movements, he was barely able to get by at first, but the more he went to the back, the more frightened he became, until the sound of "Bang Bang Bang" came from the back, he couldn't sit still anymore, and as soon as he put the book down, he raised his feet and walked next door.
Ye Qingqiao saw Xuan Miao coming over, and hurriedly hid his sword behind him. Keep your head down, and don't dare to look at the mystery.
Xuan Miao said expressionlessly: "Take it out!"
Ye Qingqiao couldn't, while secretly looking at Xuan Miao, he slowly took out the sword from behind him.
Xuan Miao saw this sword, almost a mouthful of old blood didn't hold back, he hadn't had a seizure yet, there was a burst of crazy laughter outside the door, Ye Qingqiao looked at it, it turned out that all the disciples in the refining room had heard the news and rushed to watch, Ye Qingqiao was so ashamed that his face was flushed, and he wanted to take a piece of cloth to cover his face.
Xuan Miao was so angry that she pointed at the sword cast by Ye Qingqiao and shouted: "You idiot! What is this thing you forged? You will be punished for carrying this sword for three days, and you are not allowed to take it down!"
"You, come in and help her tie up her sword, tie it up for me!" Xuan Miao said, pointing to one of the disciples who was smiling the most outside the door.
The disciple who was named held back a smile, came in to help Ye Qingqiao tie the sword behind him, and made a dead knot with bad intentions, and finally dragged it hard.
Ye Qingqiao secretly glared at him and whispered, "You wait for me!"
After the disciple was tied, he walked out of the door quickly, he couldn't help it, it was so funny!
Ye Qingqiao said nounly: "Master......"
Xuan Miao's face turned blue and shouted, "Get out!"
When Ye Qingqiao heard this, he hurriedly rushed out of the door, and said as he ran: "Master, I must reflect on it when I go back!"
Mystery: "......"
On the way back, there were constantly disciples pointing to the sword behind her back and laughing, and worse, directly asking her whether she was hanging a sword or a hoe behind her back?
In the end, Ye Qingqiao directly took a piece of cloth, covered his face, and ran back to Qingqianmen at a speed of 100 meters.
On the second day, Ye Qingqiao went to the Qingqian Hall for morning class with a "hoe" on his back, which once again aroused the laughter of all the disciples, and even Jiuyang Zhenren ridiculed her as the first person in the Lingyin faction to carry a "hoe".
After this time, Ye Qingqiao became famous in the Lingyin Sect again, just because of the "hoe" behind her.
