showdown!I enjoy life on the island

All the hair on the top of his head is gone!

"Go, go." Xu Le whistled.

The vigorous female leopard jumped down from the overgrown branches and rubbed against his trouser legs.

"There are a lot of broad-leaved trees in the forest to the east. I brought Wu Wu to help. She is very good at climbing trees."

……

The charcoal kiln still needs to be restarted, and the ventilation furnace and billet drawing machine have also been blown down by the wind.

But it's also about time.

Move the work area to one side of the small courtyard and manage it centrally, so that it will be much more convenient to process things.

A workshop of their own is the dream of all men!

After Lin Xihan and Meng Yiyi left, Xu Le circled a square area in a corner of the yard.

The charcoal kiln that was extinguished by the rainstorm, the ventilation furnace and the billet drawing machine that were blown down by the wind and rain were all dismantled on the spot.

In the square workshop area, Xu Le re-mixed the soil and erected the kiln foundation.

The craft that has been completed once can be done with ease.

Soon, the smoke from the kiln was released from the air holes at the bottom.

The kiln was sealed, the ventilation furnace was erected, the blazing flames and the smoke column soaring into the sky appeared on the island again!

Chapter 148 Hundred Stacks Forging!

"The charcoal kiln is built on the outside of the workshop for easy ventilation."

"The ventilation furnace is arranged in the middle of the workshop, and the melting and disposal of materials are easier."

"The throwing machine can also be thrown in the corner. The current pottery quantity is sufficient, and it can be used at any time when needed in the future."

The workshop area was still very empty, so Xu Le continued to place the anvil on the front of the ventilation furnace, facing the ventilation hole.

In this way, he can directly heat the iron in the vent hole, and then transfer it directly to the anvil for forging.

"Iron tools will be the capital of my survival on the island for a long time."

"The performance of forged iron is much better than that of direct casting."

"Well, so the core of the workshop is built around iron forging."

Next to the anvil, a water tank with a length of about one meter and a depth of more than 30 centimeters was built out of stones.

The ventilation stove, the anvil, and the sink are three things, arranged in a triangle.

In this way, from heating to forging to quenching, it can be completed within a square inch, and there is almost no need to move too much under the feet.

"It just so happened that the fire started, anyway, the two of them haven't come back yet, let's build some tools and try the newly completed workshop!"

Pour the iron slag into clay pots and smelt it in the fire!

The molten iron is poured into two long strips of iron brazing in the mold.

The iron drill is near the middle and upper section, and two opposite hole slots are cut out. An iron bar is passed through the hole slots, and both ends of the iron bar are smashed flat with a hammer.

The tongs are done!

For the grips of the iron tongs, two pieces of jackal skin were cut out to insulate the temperature.

Immediately afterwards, using the same process, a square iron ingot was poured out.

At the same time, prepare a clay pot of iron slag again and put it into a ventilated furnace for melting.

The iron ingot is clamped with iron tongs, sent from the vent hole into the ventilated furnace to be heated, and after burning red, it is transferred to the anvil, and the hammer is swung—

Ding!Ding!Ding!Ding!

The closer the distance, the shorter the time difference between heating up and forging, and the shaping process is more intensive.

Xu Le felt the feedback from the impact of the hammer, and at the same time flipped it over with the iron tongs so that every side of the iron ingot was evenly beaten.

With the continuous hammering sound, the iron ingot is gradually elongated and hammered thin.

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"Look at this, Mr. Xu Le is going to hammer out a blank knife directly?"

"A long sword with a straight body? Made by Yang? Made by Li? Hand sword? Or the Xiuchun of later generations?"

"Obviously the same infrastructure, but densely placed in a workshop, it feels a lot more professional at once."

"Huh? Why did Mr. Xu Le bend the blade?"

Amidst the tinkling sound of iron striking, Xu Le hammered and folded the iron material that had begun to form a knife shape from the middle.

With further tapping, the two sections folded in half fit perfectly!

Barrage--

"Stacking? Boss Xu Le, is this the rhythm to create a hundred stacks of steel?"

One stack... two stacks...

The iron billet is constantly being thinned, lengthened, and then folded repeatedly!

After stacking ten times, the newly completed furnace of molten iron has been smelted.

The molten iron is directly poured on the stacked iron slabs, wait until it solidifies slightly, and continue to repeat the stacking process just now.

Barrage--

"Burning pig iron essence, using heavy soft collar... Mr. Xu Le, this also uses the skill of pouring steel?"

"Steel filling is actually the process of decarburizing pig iron and carburizing wrought iron. The performance of the obtained steel is even better than that of ordinary iron!"

"It's ok. I thought that with a simple hammer and a stack of hammers, I could have a high-quality iron knife blank. I didn't expect that Mr. Xu Le would not be satisfied with this at all!"

"The next step is to see how much Mr. Xu Le can control the carbon ratio. To be honest, without some instruments used in modern industry, the success rate is very low by human control!"

"This kind of artificial control can only be mastered by an old blacksmith for many years."

"It's not that I look down on Boss Xu Le, he's really too young. At this age, experience is bound to be limited. It's better to help him."

Amidst the barrage of discussions, Xu Le completed the last layering process.

Quenching!

blah!

The water vapor rises violently!

When Xu Le took out the iron blade again, the entire blade was shining coldly. Although it hadn't been polished yet, it had already begun to show its sharpness.

Immediately afterwards, he sent the iron knife billet into the ventilated furnace again.

Barrage in the live broadcast room——

"This is... the technique of tempering is used again!"

"Similarly, it is very difficult to control the temperature only by manual judgment! The temperature is not suitable, and the internal stress during quenching cannot be eliminated, which is equivalent to white dry!"

"Eh? Why did Mr. Xu Le leave? Ignore the iron knife blank? Just burn it like this?"

"Uh...could it be that Guangang just got rid of it just now, instead of overturning the car, it's better to go back to the furnace and rebuild."

"It's not like... What is Mr. Xu Le doing here with a big pile of lard?"

"Could it be... oil quenching? The different cooling degrees of water and oil can greatly improve the performance of materials!"

Xu Le poured the lard directly into the sink.

Next to the high-temperature heat radiation of the ventilated furnace, the grease melted quickly and covered the water with a thick layer.

At this time, Xu Le suddenly pulled the iron blade blank out of the ventilation hole——

Press into the sink!

Chapter 149 Ancient Craftsmanship Sword!

Lin Xihan and Meng Yiyi, when they came back from the broad-leaved forest, they heard clanging sounds coming from the yard from a distance.

"As long as you're awake, you don't rest..."

A pair of long wheat-colored legs rested on both sides of the panther's body, dangling constantly.

The long-legged owner let out a soft sigh.

Two taupe-colored legs hung down from the same side of the black panther, and Meng Yiyi, who was framed in Lin Xihan's arms, nodded vigorously:

"Thighs are the best!"

The elegant female leopard walked lightly and walked around a winding path from the dense forest.

Turning again, you can see a small courtyard that has been built with breast-length female walls.

The flames made the small courtyard glowing red, sparks splashed everywhere in the corner of the small courtyard.

"Forging iron... Is this really something you can do after surviving on the eighth day in the wilderness..."

Lin Xihan pinched out two small crescents between her eyebrows with complicated emotions.

Behind the infinity, there is hard work and eight precepts.

It is never without it when moving things.

At this moment, there is a thick layer of broad leaves on its back, rustling when it walks.

The nose is still arching and arching on the ground, looking to see if there is any food that fell on the ground.

Working hard but being greedy and stealing...

I really thought I didn't know, did you steal all those fish... Lin Xihan looked at Bajie's funny face, and raised his hand to feed a wild fruit.

The 350-kilogram wild boar, with a ferocious face, slobbered when it came up to eat.

Meng Yiyi had a bitter face: "Sister Lin...that's mine..."

"Huh? Hahaha I forgot..."

Lin Xihan laughed unnaturally a few times to cover up her embarrassment.

Then he took out another bunch of wild fruits from his clothes: "The ones left for Xu Le are for you."

"... so sweet!"

After taking a bite, Meng Yiyi's eyes narrowed, "It's sweeter than sister Lin gave me!"

"Huh? Sister Lin, why are you blushing?"

She raised her face and asked.

"Bah, bah, bah, eat it if I give it to you!"

Lin Xihan distracted her attention in a hurry, "It's here."

An opening more than two meters wide was opened on the side of the parapet.

After walking around into the small courtyard, Lin Xihan immediately noticed a long knife sticking upside down on the ground in the middle of the courtyard.

"Straight knife? Ancient? It looks like a horizontal knife from the Li family."

Meng Yiyi, who had learned enough equipment, blurted out, "But it seems that it is not finished. The handle of the knife is just made of wood, and there is no sheath..."

The body of the horizontal knife is forged and tough, the blade is sharp, but the handle is extremely rough.

Cross knife?The kind with long swords and broken horses?Lin Xihan continued to look around in doubt.

Around Hengdao, several pieces of wood were scattered here and there.

The whole piece of wood was cut from the middle... Xu Le is here to test the knife?

This incision is so flat... and it looks like it cut so many pieces in one go...

Lin Xihan seemed to be able to see a person standing in the yard at that time, holding a horizontal knife.

The wood fell in all directions, and he suddenly raised the knife——

Cen!
