Master descends to earth

Chapter 48

Xu Kui's expression was shocked, he took a deep breath, grasped the sledgehammer with both hands, concentrated on looking at the red meteorite, and waited for Su Yuan's next instruction.

Su Yuan looked at the fiery red meteorite that had been forged into a length of more than one foot. Golden light flowed in it, and the impurities on the surface were basically removed, but there were still dots of black inside. At this time, it needed to be folded and forged many times.

"right here!"

Su Yuan stared at the golden light, suddenly raised his right hand high, and the small hammer quickly hit the upper middle position, which is the folding point.

Xu Kui yelled loudly, the veins in his arms popped out, he raised the hammer and hit hard on the place where the small hammer fell. With a sound of ding, the end of the meteorite slightly tilted up, and began to bend from the middle.

"continue!"

Su Yuan raised the small hammer again, hitting the folding point continuously, correcting the angle and position.As the sledgehammer fell again and again, the meteorite was folded in two, and the upper and lower pieces were tightly fitted together.

"Into the oven!"

"Increase the wind power!"

Su Yuan quickly put the meteorite into the raging fire, ordered Liu Shenghuimei to increase the wind, picked up the big bowl next to it, drank it down, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's so cool!" Xu Kui drank two bowls of water in a row, sweating profusely, and said excitedly: "It's really exciting, I have never beaten such a tough guy!"

Su Yuan took the wet towel from Huimei, wiped off his sweat, and said with a smile, "It's the first time I fold it, save some strength, and output evenly in the future."

"Use the ball for the first three times, then change the running water, and finally use the horse teeth, try to make the carbon evenly distributed, and hide the heart of the sword!"

Xu Kui understood, with an excited expression on his face, hiding his sword heart, this is the secret of top masters.

Huimei Liusheng looked at Su Yuan's slender and strong muscles, and said with a pretty face, "Master, this time you want to use pure steel to forge swords? Don't you need to clamp steel?"

Su Yuan waved his hand, looked at the meteorite in the fire, and explained: "After forging, it has been confirmed that the meteorite is very tough, and it can be elastic enough without clamping steel. The next point is to fold it. My goal is at least twelve times! "

"Twelve times!" Emi Yagyu took a deep breath and said in surprise, "Ten times are already on the 2048th floor, twelve times..."

Su Yuan looked at Xu Kui's sturdy body like an iron tower, and joked: "If you don't hit him twelve times, do you think you can be worthy of this guy's brute force?"

Xu Kui laughed loudly, beat his chest hard, and said to himself: "Don't worry, it's not like I haven't beaten it twelve times. This time, the master took it with me, and it's very easy."

Yagyu Emi looked at the state of the two talking and laughing happily, and secretly clicked her tongue, what a monster!

Under normal circumstances, every fold is at least half an hour, or even an hour, and it is put into the furnace for at most 15 minutes before forging.The whole process must be done in one go without any interruption.

Twelve times, it means that two people need to beat non-stop for more than ten hours!
Beside the stove at [-] or [-] degrees, thousands of times of hitting with a hammer, it is conceivable that the test of the limit of the body is simply not human!

"start!"

"Team fight!"

The golden light in the furnace became brighter and brighter, Su Yuan quickly took out the meteorite with iron tongs, put it on the iron felt, and began to fold and forge for the second time, sparks flew everywhere, and passion radiated.

Song Dynasty Zhou Mi's "Yunyan Passing Eye Record" records: The grate knife, the iron is finely cut with flowers, and it is said that it is finely cut with a silver sheet, and it is cut with an iron sheet like silk hair, and then it is beaten with ten thousand hammers, which becomes a natural flower. .

Ming Dynasty Cao Zhao's "Ge Gu Yao Lun": Iron out of Xifan, those with spiral flowers on the surface, those with sesame snowflakes, all swords and swords are polished, and alumed with gold wire, the flowers will be seen.

After more than 40 minutes, the meteorite folded for the second time was put into the furnace again. The golden light became more and more intense, and the black impurities gradually decreased. This is the biggest advantage of folding forging that has been passed down for thousands of years.

"continue!"

After resting for more than ten minutes, the third time started, Su Yuan kept hitting the parts with impurities with a small hammer, and asked Xu Kui to hit hard with a sledgehammer to remove the fake and keep the real, leaving only the purest part.

"Change the water!"

The fourth fold does not need to be beaten, but replaced by flowing water forging with higher technical requirements. The thickness of the flowing water, and the return at the sharp edge are the key to polishing the blade and the tip of the sword.

The sharpness of the ancient magical weapon is not only because of the fine edge, but the real mystery of its performance lies in the small serrations of the blade, and the bite force is very strong without the opening being too thin.

According to legend, the ashes of teeth, hair and nitrate are divided into equal parts, and the knife edge is painted with vinegar to look like a saw tooth.

"Start quenching!"

Hearing Su Yuan's order, everyone cheered up. Huimei Liusheng looked at the cold spring of the earth veins, and her heart immediately rose to her throat.

Su Yuan picked up the meteorite which was more than one foot long, looked at the bright golden light of the sword cast in the raging fire, and waited for the most suitable time. The way to quench the fire lies in an instant, success or failure depends on one action.

"It's now!"

A dazzling golden light suddenly burst out in front of Su Yuan's eyes. Blessed as he was, he quickly picked up the meteorite and plunged it into the water of the cold spring well with lightning speed. In an instant, the green smoke was transpiring, like a fire pouring oil, and there were explosions everywhere.

In less than two seconds, Su Yuan looked at the dazzling golden light and was instantly suppressed by the icy cold spring, and there seemed to be a clear cry of meteorite in his ears, and the two heavens of ice and fire seemed to be reborn from Nirvana, reborn.

"Keep fighting!"

Jingle...jingle...jingle...

Xu Kui had been ready for a long time, and kept hitting with a sledgehammer. After the rapid cooling, now is the critical moment to test the steel. What's more, the water from the cold spring is used, which is more than ten degrees lower than ordinary.

Heat treatment is one of the important processes in sword manufacturing, which is related to the soul of the sword's performance.That is to say, the shape and overall chemical composition of the sword itself are not changed, but by changing the internal microstructure or changing the chemical composition of the surface to endow or improve the performance. The quenching process can tell the level of a swordsmith.

In an instant,

in the slightest,

Like a white horse passing by,
fleeting,
The life and death of a sword,

Watch it all in just two seconds!
