Lin Xixue sheathed the sword, then held the iron sword with the scabbard in her hand, weighed it, and added: "In addition to being hard, it's best to be heavier."
After all, the greater the mass, the more kinetic energy it can carry, and the greater the lethality when swinging it. This iron sword always feels a little light and airy in the hand.
The middle-aged man was so frightened by her sword that he dropped the dustpan with broken carbon in his hand, and the broken carbon rolled all over the floor.
He saw that this little girl was frail and didn't have the calluses that a practicing family member should have on her fingers. He just thought she was a young lady from a wealthy family. After reading some quackery books, he got hot-headed and sneaked out of the house to join the charade.
But seeing the sword strike just now, he no longer dared to have any contempt for it.
This sword is really too fast, and not only fast, but more importantly, fierce!
He was still very confident in the strength of his own sword, but when the sword was struck just now, the entire sword was almost bent into a circle, which showed how fierce the sword was.
The most terrifying thing is that such a fast and fierce sword strike has no momentum at all?
Although he is not a martial artist in the escort agency, but because of his superb skills, he often works closely with the brothers in the escort agency. He often watches them perform martial arts, so he naturally has a good understanding of the techniques involved.
Generally speaking, you need to take a stance before drawing a sword. Only if you have the right stance can you use all your body's strength to exert force, and your moves will be powerful.
So whether you are learning boxing or swordsmanship, the first thing you should do is Zamabu. If the bottom plate is unstable and the posture is wrong, it is just a showpiece after all.
As for this sword, there was no momentum, which meant that the power of the lower body was not used at all. It was a sword swung purely by the strength of the arm.
Is this really something a human can do?
Beads of sweat fell all the way down his neck. He didn't dare to think any more. He just understood that no matter what, he must try his best to meet the requirements of this distinguished guest.
If this distinguished guest is dissatisfied, I am afraid that my life will be in danger.
He laughed a few times, then hurriedly collected the broken coals, added them to the furnace, and pulled the bellows a few times to get the fire going.
He lifted up the linen towel around his neck and wiped his sweat, and then said in panic: "Does the heroine have other requirements, such as the length of the knife, appearance, etc.?"
"The length of the knife should be according to my height, and the appearance should be plain. The most important thing is that the faster, the better. If you need it urgently, you will definitely not be short of money."
"Yes, yes, today I will push away all the other work and make it for you, Heroine, first. But if I have to do five of them, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult in a short period of time."
"Would you like to see if this works? I guess you need five weapons, Heroine, just because your moves are so powerful and you are afraid of breaking the blade. Why don't I get you a weapon that is not easily damaged, Heroine? Use it, please give me more time for the remaining four."
"Not easily damaged? Didn't you just say that the harder the weapon, the brittle it will be?" Lin Xixue frowned and said suspiciously.
"Haha..." The middle-aged man bent over and laughed awkwardly, "That is the state of an ordinary weapon, but what you want, heroine, is obviously not an ordinary weapon, right?"
Lin Xixue's eyebrows were gleaming, but she said indifferently, "If you can really make a weapon that is not easily damaged, you will be rewarded."
"I will definitely satisfy the heroine!" The middle-aged man beat his chest, and the previous panic was gone. He was obviously extremely confident in his craftsmanship.
"It's just that the method of making this special weapon is a special craft passed down from my ancestors. You also know that our craftsmen all rely on our own craftsmanship to make a living. I'm afraid the heroine won't be able to observe the making process."
Lin Xixue knew that he was chasing people away, so she no longer forced her. She just nodded slightly and turned to leave.
As soon as she went out, the middle-aged man locked the door. Lin Xixue checked with her consciousness and found that he not only locked the door, but also added two more.
This move aroused Lin Xixue's suspicion. Even if it is a unique craft, it doesn't need to be so mysterious, right?
Lin Xixue walked around to the back alley of the blacksmith shop and put her consciousness into the house.
She wanted to see what was so special about this so-called secret passed down from ancestors.
I saw that this man was not in a hurry to start making weapons, but first took a large basin of water to scrub his body, and then put on a set of new-looking clothes.
After confirming that the doors and windows were locked, he took out an iron box from the hidden compartment in the wall, took out a candle from the back room, melted the candle, and took out a key.
Interestingly, the key is separated from the box, and the key is hidden in the candle.
The man carefully opened the iron box and took out a rusty bronze statue.
When Lin Xixue saw this statue, she immediately became nervous.
She felt that she might have a phobia of statues. No matter what statue she saw, whether it was made of clay, stone, wood, gold, or iron, she felt uncomfortable all over.
What's more, the combination of the two elements of bathing, changing clothes and modeling makes it difficult for her not to think about it too much.
This blacksmith seems to be a mortal, but it seems that he is not as simple as he seems on the surface.
The middle-aged man took out the bronze statue. Perhaps it was because the statue was too old and he could no longer clearly see what the specific image of the statue was. A lot of rust chips even fell off when he took it out.
Place the statue on the altar table, prepare gauze and ointment of unknown purpose, and then hold up three sticks of incense.
Lin Xixue's hand had already grasped the invisible magic sword, ready to take action at any time.
The blacksmith held the incense and bowed three times before saying: "Xue Xi, a descendant of the Xue family, please give me the fire of heaven."
After saying that, he inserted the incense into the incense burner in front of the statue, then held his hands above his head and gritted his teeth.
Not long after, his hands were ignited by blue-purple flames that appeared out of thin air.
He didn't dare to waste a moment, and quickly held the blue-purple flame and sent it into the fire.
In an instant, the flames in the furnace turned pure blue, and the high temperature distorted the air in the entire blacksmith shop.
In just a few breaths, the crucible placed on the forge was burned red, almost turning into molten iron.
Lin Xixue was frightened when she saw it outside the wall, and a word immediately came to her mind - perfection.
The blacksmith dipped his burning hands into the bucket, and the water in the bucket soon began to boil.
He took out his hands again. Although the flames had been extinguished, there was no good skin left on his hands.
He grinned and exhaled loudly, holding the medicine bottle in his elbow, then took the ointment stopper in his mouth, applied the ointment to his severely burned hands, and then bandaged them hastily.
He leaned against the wall and calmed down for a while, then took out various ores and started smelting them.
The impurities in the various mineral sands were quickly burned away by the cyan flame, and the remaining parts became increasingly clear and transparent.
Take a clay mold and pour the metal liquid that has been calcined until it is completely transparent.
During the cooling process, he remixed the ore in different proportions and melted another furnace of molten iron.
Although Lin Xixue couldn't understand the difference between the two, she could generally understand that they were two alloys with different proportions.
After the two pieces of alloy were completely cooled and formed, the blacksmith actually wrapped one piece of alloy around the other and began to forge it.
Every time the hammer falls, green sparks will burst out. After a few strikes, the hammer in the blacksmith's hand will actually melt and deform...
