Sword of Punishment

Jingzhou City.

The martial arts square in the back garden of Zhu's manor is now the time to separate the profound essence. According to the plan, the refined profound essence is divided into thirty parts, each of which is just as big as an adult's fist.

At this time, Ji Yuan was also watching intently on how Master Shi Bugui divided the mysterious essence. Ji Yuan compared the quality of the divided mysterious essence with the red sphere he got.

He could tell with the naked eye that the quality of these refined profound essences still couldn't compare with the quality of his own red sphere, first of all, they couldn't keep up with the glossiness. Although these refined profound essences looked red and hazy, But it is not as crystal clear as the red sphere I got, the red color is like a crystal with no impurities at all.

After this comparison, Ji Yuan was quite sure that the red metal sphere he got was really a treasure, which naturally made him very excited. [

It would have taken two days to divide the Xuan Jing, but it only took a day and a half, and the time was shortened by half a day. After dividing the last piece, Shi Bugui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Shi Bugui's tired expression, Zhu Yuetian said to Shi Bugui apologetically:

"Brother Shi, you've worked so hard. I really feel sorry for my little brother. Let me put aside the matter of casting the sword for now. I'll talk about it later when I have a chance!"

"Brother Zhu, you don't have to be polite. I understand what you mean. The situation is urgent now. I can only rest this afternoon and start casting swords for you in the evening!" Shi Bugui looked at Zhu Yuetian's apologetic expression, shook his hand, and said .

Ling Lu and others at the side also expressed their gratitude to Shi Bugui, but Ji Yuan was eager to see how Shi Bugui forged the sword, but he had waited for more than half a month, and thought that he would start casting the sword tomorrow. Yes, I heard that the casting can start tonight, and finally there was a hint of joy on his face. He believed that he only needed to watch the process of Master Shi Bugui casting the sword, and combined with some points in the booklet , You will learn some key points of the art of casting, and with more practice in the future, you can also learn the art of casting swords.

At noon, because Zhu Yuetian thanked Shi Bugui for his hard work, he held a big banquet, entertained him well, and rested for an afternoon. In the anticipation of the era, the sky finally darkened. He couldn't wait to come to the back garden square. When he arrived In the back garden, Shi Bugui and the others hadn't arrived yet, and it took about a cup of tea before seeing masters Zhu Yuetian, Ling Lu, Shi Bugui, Li Lanzhou and others slowly arriving.

Seeing that Ji Yuan had arrived ahead of schedule, everyone was slightly taken aback. Seeing this, Shi Bugui looked at Zhu Yuetian, then at Ji Yuan, and said:

"Brother Zhu, although your apprentice is young, you are a studious person, and your future is boundless!"

Ji Yuan blushed slightly, and hurriedly greeted the seniors and said: "The boy Ji Yuan has met the master and the seniors!"

Zhu Yuetian smiled, and said in a joking tone: "Brother Shi, my apprentice loves to learn, so don't hide your secrets!"

"Haha! Brother Zhu, look at you, you don't know modesty at all. I have taught you that skill a long time ago, and the only thing left is to practice sword casting! You see, he came here earlier than us. Isn't this just practice? come yet?"

Ji Yuan touched his head in embarrassment, and said, "Thank you, Uncle Shi, for your generous advice!"

Zhu Yuetian looked at Ji Yuan, and said to him earnestly: "Ji Yuan, you must repay your kindness! Your master, I am not well-known in the Jianghu, but I am a person who knows how to repay you, which one is good for me? , I will repay him with ten times and a hundred times of kindness. If anyone treats me badly and plots against me, I will also repay him with ten times and a hundred times of kindness! What we Jianghu people pay attention to is to distinguish between love and hatred! A little bit of kindness should be given Reciprocate with the fountain!"

Ji Yuan straightened his face, and said, "Thank you, master, for teaching me! This apprentice has remembered what master said!"

Zhu Yuetian nodded, and Shi Bugui said to Ji Yuan meaningfully: "Nephew Ji Xian, if we can carry forward this casting technique in the future, I will be gratified even after a hundred years!"

"If the boy has this ability, he must pass on Uncle Shi's casting technique!" Ji Yuan bowed deeply to Shi Bugui, and said.

"Well, nephew Ji Xian, you don't have to be polite, I believe you must have this ability!" Shi Bugui said with a slight smile.

After Shi Bugui finished speaking, he went straight to the copper furnace where the profound essence was refined. The original tall copper furnace has been removed, and now it has been replaced by a smaller copper furnace, which is about eight feet high. Left and right, with a diameter of about six feet, the entire copper furnace exudes a vicissitudes of history.

Pointing to this copper furnace, Shi Bugui introduced: "This copper furnace weighs [-] catties, and it was handed down from my master, and the big copper furnace for refining the profound essence was cast by my master! It took a lot of time to move the two copper furnaces from Tianganshan to here!"[

"Brother Shi has worked so hard for refining the profound essence this time! Brother, I am deeply sorry!" Zhu Yuetian said apologetically.

Shi Bugui smiled slightly, and said to Zhu Yuetian, "Brother Zhu, don't worry too much, I'm telling nephew Ji Xian!"

Zhu Yuetian nodded and didn't speak. He also knew that Shi Bugui's words just now were specifically addressed to Ji Yuan. Their old friends also knew a little about Shi Bugui's large and small copper furnaces, including his casting techniques. Ji Yuan didn't know anything about it.

Hearing Shi Bugui's words, Ji Yuan clicked his tongue inwardly. This copper furnace is so heavy, and it was passed down from his master's family. It seems that this copper furnace has been around for some years, and it should be an antique.

Shi Bugui asked two guards to add some more wood under the copper furnace, and then introduced to Ji Yuan: "Nephew Ji Xian, don't underestimate these woods, they are cut from iron-framed trees that are more than a thousand years old. Yes, only this kind of wood charcoal burning fire is hard.

However, the flames of ordinary wood burning are soft, and they cannot reach the weapons made of materials such as casting Xuanjing.If there are more than [-] years of iron-framed wood, the effect will be even better!

It would be great if we could find Earth Vein Fire. According to my teacher's records, if we could find a place for Earth Vein Fire to forge weapons, its quality would be more than ten times better than that of Wannian Iron Bone Wood as fuel.

The effect of using the fire of the earth's veins to refine the impurities in the metal is also very good!It's a pity that this kind of legendary earth vein fire is very rare to see!

Legend has it that there is another kind of fire of the highest level, which is the sacred fire cultivated by monks in the realm of Taoism. The weapons refined are called spiritual weapons. The specific power is not very clear to the old. "

When Ji Yuan heard this, his heart moved. He doesn't pay much attention to things that are too far away like Shenhuo, but he is more concerned about the earth vein fire, so he asked: "Uncle Shi, what kind of fire are you talking about? identify?"

Shi Bugui replied casually: "The general earth vein fire is not the fire that bursts out of the crater, but the fire that appears at least a thousand feet deep underground. This kind of earth fire is stable, not violent, and has a A natural force of levitation, even if this copper furnace is placed on the fire mouth, the copper furnace will also be suspended on the fire mouth! This is the wonder of the earth vein fire!"

"Ah! It turns out that the earth vein fire has such a wonderful feature!" He replied, but his heart was filled with excitement. It turned out that the crater in the stone chamber he found in Chishan turned out to be the earth vein fire!

Shi Bugui said again: "In addition to having a good sword furnace and a good flame, sword casting is to control the heat when refining, slowly forge the sword embryo, remove the impurities in the sword embryo, and refine it. The longer the time, the better the quality of the sword. There is a saying that steel can be made from hundreds of tempers.

If the material for refining the sword itself is good, the refining time will be shorter!And the material for refining this time is already refined Xuanjing, so it only takes half a month to cast the sword this time, and it can be cast into a divine sword.

In addition, whether the sword is cast to the point where water can be extracted depends on the luster of the sword embryo. Generally, when the two sides of the sword embryo emit blue light, it is time for extraction!Oh, by the way, the water used when extracting the sword is also very particular. Hanzhong Hot Spring is the first spring in the world, followed by Cold Spring. The colder the water, the better the effect, and then there are other waters!In order to use such a good black essence to forge a sword this time, your master has already asked the guards to go to the Biyuantan five hundred miles away to get the cold water there. "

Ji Yuan nodded as he listened, the classics that Shi Bugui said were not mentioned in the manual, it turns out that there are so many specialties in casting swords, and after that Shi Bugui talked about many secrets of sword casting, Ji Yuan heard With relish.

Afterwards, Shi Bugui pointed to the copper furnace and said, "I put a piece of Xuanjing into the copper furnace and melted it at noon, and the sword embryo should be almost formed by this time!"

After Shi Bugui finished speaking, he picked up a tongs-like tool next to the sword stove, and pulled out a piece of red-hot metal in the shape of a sword from the copper stove. The sword-shaped metal was soft at the moment, like a piece of dough. generally.

Putting the dough-like red metal on an iron pier, Shi Bugui picked up a bowl-sized hammer and swung it quickly. There was a tinkling sound of knocking, and the dough-like red metal was Under the strike of the iron hammer, it slowly turned into the shape of a sword. As time went by, a six-foot long three-finger wide and thin sword embryo finally took shape.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Shi Bugui said with satisfaction: "The sword embryo has finally taken shape. This sword embryo needs to be formed at one time. There should be no delay in the middle. If there is any delay, the sword body will have flaws."

Looking at the exquisite sword embryo, Ji Yuan showed a look of excitement in his eyes. Seeing that the sword embryo of this sword has reached such an exquisite appearance, if it is refined for another half a month, it must be a very remarkable sword by then. Sword!

Shi Bugui put the casted sword embryo into the copper furnace again, and covered the copper furnace's lid.After doing all this, Shi Bugui ordered the guards who added material fire to pay attention to add material fire. Zhu Yuetian and others who had been watching by the side saw that the sword embryo was finally formed, and everyone showed a happy look. Everyone at the scene is an expert. Just by looking at the sword embryo, you can tell how good the quality of this sword is. [

Zhu Yuetian was very satisfied and thanked Shi Bugui, and then everyone drank wine in the back garden, and Ji Yuan saw that there should be no big things in the future, so he waited for the extraction in half a month, and during this time he Not only should we secretly pay attention to whether there are assassins coming again, but also hurry up to practice. Now, if we practice for one more day, we will have an extra guarantee.
