Chapter 18 Forging Knives
Qingyan squatted in front of Liu Sanli, supported his right leg under the knee with one hand, and stroked down the bone on the calf with the other hand.

He touched the misplaced part, and said in his mouth: "It's okay, the bone in your leg is not broken, but it is misplaced, and I can cure it."

Gently exert strength on this side of the hand, and with a stretch and a lift, the bone was snapped back with a "click".

She was afraid that she was too strong, so she took it easy, otherwise it was a misalignment, but she was directly broken by herself.

Liu Sanli heard her say that her leg was fine and could be cured, just when she laughed happily, her leg hurt.

Then I heard a "click", and the leg regained consciousness.There was no time to make a scream.

He widened his eyes, is that all right?
Xue Qingyan shook her head, "It's not good, I just broke your misplaced bone back, you are indeed injured there, you still need to take care of it for a while, otherwise it will be easy to misplace again."

Then he turned to Yang Dashan and said, "Master Dashan, do you have any small long boards? Two pieces as long as the calf will do, and a fine hemp rope."

Yang Dashan said excitedly, "There are, there are, and I'll go get them."

There really are such things, they are all used for padding and binding things.

Yang Dashan hurried home to get it, muttering in his heart while running, this Miss Xue is really amazing, she can heal diseases, so they will be safer on the way.

When Yang Dashan brought the things back, Qingyan put down Liu Sanli's rolled trouser legs and put them under his calves, then straightened his legs, fixed them with wooden boards and tied them with hemp rope.

In fact, it would be better if there are gauze strips. After all, the hemp rope is easy to move, and the wide cloth strips are more stable.

However, don't think about it in this day and age. The clothes are all patch upon patch, and even a small piece of cloth has to be used. Where there will be extra cloth, let's make do with it.

After the dressing was done, Qingyan said: "Actually, it's better to rest in bed for a few days, but we don't have time, so you can sit on the scooter first, wait for ten days and a half months, and then you can walk with a cane , as long as you don’t do strenuous exercise.”

Liu Sanli bowed to Qingyan gratefully, "Thank you, Ms. Xue, you are really a living Bodhisattva who saves suffering. When my leg recovers, I will be your cow and horse..."

Qingyan was a little embarrassed by what was said, she waved her hand and said: "No need to do this, it's just a matter of raising your hands, Master Dashan, let's find a room for Uncle Liu to rest first, it may take a lot of time to repair the cart."

Yang Dashan saw the little girl's embarrassment, nodded quickly, and took over the conversation.

"Yes, yes, go to my house first, Brother Liu, you should sleep first, and when we get the scooter ready, we'll be on our way..."

Liu Sanli was grateful again.

After everyone finished their breakfast, they started to light the stove and refine those big knives.

The stove is from Dawang’s kitchen, just remove the pot.

Qingyan watched them light the coal they brought back, the smoke was very heavy, but the fire was not small.

It's just a little different from what she knows. She remembers that briquettes were used in the house at the beginning.

Later, my father bought loose coal and bought several tons. Then he mixed the coal and some loess together to make coal, dried it in the sun and burned it.

Later, those reconciled coals were molded into briquettes. There was no smoke when the coal was burned, but it was easy to have gas. If there was no chimney, I would not dare to burn it at all.

In her house, all the heating is done by herself. The coal-fired stove is in the kitchen, which is separate from the house where people live. It is not afraid of gas, but a chimney is also installed, so it is at least safer.

Now it looks like the coal has been dug directly from the mine, and has not been processed at all. I don't know if it's because of this, so the smoke is so big, and the fire is much bigger than the coal fire they burned at home.

The flames are almost catching up with the charcoal, and the coal in the house does not have such a high flame.

When the coal started to burn, Yang Erzhuang first put a knife in without the handle, and was going to have a try first to see if it would work.

Qingyan thinks there should be no problem, she has read it before, and the current weapons are all made of pig iron, unlike the metals of the later generations, which are all synthetic, it is impossible to refine them.

The quality of this big knife is the same as her old iron pot at first glance, and the part close to the handle is obviously rusted.

And this knife is not like the sliced ​​knife of the later generations, which is as thin as paper and makes a crackling sound when you flick it.

Qingyan has seen those martial arts performances, the ones she uses are very thin, and when she looks bright, she trembles when she flicks them.

The current knife is very heavy, the back of the knife is almost a finger thick, and it is very difficult to swing the big knife.

Those Khitan people are tall and burly, and they don't show much when using this big knife. It is held in the hands of a relatively thin and short villager, and it can only be lifted with two hands.

Although it is heavy, but relatively, this knife can definitely chop off a person's head.

That's right, it's chopping, just in time for the bone-cutting knife during the Chinese New Year at home.

The machete was left in the fire for a while, and it turned red, and then they found a stone hammer.

That's right, it's a stone hammer. It's impossible to have an iron hammer. We use stone hammers at home.

I hit the thinner part of the machete twice, and it was soon bent by the hammer, and I felt that the back of the knife was also a little thinner, which showed that it worked.

It is not enough to just hammer it flat, but also try to punch out a few holes before it can be nailed to the wooden wheel.

It's just that people in this village don't have ready-made rivets, which is also a problem.

Then a few men were there and hammered for more than an hour, but they flattened the knife and hammered it, making it wider, but what to do with the hole?
Qingyan thought for a while, but there are tools in the Chou Chou space, in the trunk of the solar car, there is a tool box, which should be put in it by Dad before.

Because the car has not been fully remodeled, the tool box inside is full of things, including chainsaws and so on.

However, it seems a little abrupt to take it out. Let alone other things, it should be no problem to take out a hammer and a nail, otherwise.The seven big knives are finished, and we have to wait until the year of the monkey.

 Thank you "joysky" for your support!
