Chapter Thirty-One
Chapter 31: Rang Niu
One day later, the giant ice ax, which weighed more than 80 pounds (the weight of the ice ax has been changed here), finally turned orange-red. William held the large wide-nose pliers and clamped the ax body tightly, laboriously removing it. He dragged it out of the furnace, and the dwarf Nanfdo who was waiting nearby quickly opened the medicine bottle and poured another bottle of blue-black retarder on the giant axe. With the "chichi" white smoke steaming, the retarder adhered to the surface. The cold star iron shows a brighter flame.
William held the ax body and landed heavily on the anvil. Singer held another pair of wide-nose pliers in both hands and took the hot ax and held it firmly. William picked up the long-handled hammer and struck it hard. Hitting the axe, "Bang!" there was a loud bang, sparks shot out from the hammer, and a small crater as big as a bowl appeared on the axe. The dwarves and dwarves were almost deafened by the shock.
"Damn it! William! Don't use so much force! It makes me deaf!" The one-eyed dwarf released a hand holding the pliers and used his short, fat fingers to dig out the ear holes. Nanfodoro He also muttered and shook his head.
William ignored the complaints of the two and continued to beat the ax body vigorously. As he beat again and again, the cold star iron gradually lost the shape of the giant axe. Singers also adjusted the angle of the clamp from time to time, and the material became It turned into a thick rectangular shape. When the ax head as big as a basin turned into a block more than two feet long, the color of the originally fiery red cold star iron had begun to darken. William picked it up again and put it into the furnace for heating.
When the cold star iron turned orange again, William took it out of the furnace again. Nanfudo sprinkled it with retarder in time. The dwarves took over one after another. William continued to forge it vigorously, and then put it into the furnace for heating again. Repeatedly, when it was cold When the star iron became a thick stick of more than four feet, William began to beat the middle of the stick. When the middle became thinner, Nanfdo stood an ax specially used for cutting materials on it, and the dwarf hammered it with a hammer. Then he cut the iron rod into two sections, and repeated this process to divide the cold star iron into four sections, and forged it into slender iron bars. He forged for two days and one night. During this period, Tog also arranged for things in the city to join in and rotate.
On the morning of the third day, the small piece of fine gold being calcined finally turned into a crystal light blue. The dwarf alchemist Nanfdo carefully took it out one by one, evenly coated it with flux and put it back into the furnace again. The existence of an outstanding alchemist indeed saved a lot of trouble. Of course, William thought it would be better if there were no quarrels between him and the dwarves.
On the fourth day, the cold star iron was forged into iron bars. The fine gold coated with flux was still burning, and the largest piece of fine gold had just begun to change color. Except for one person left to guard the furnace, the remaining three people held on tight Time to sleep to restore physical and mental strength.
At midnight, several small pieces of fine gold gradually turned into golden yellow. Tog, who was keeping vigil, quickly woke up the others. The real challenge was about to begin. The fine gold that had absorbed enough heat seemed to turn into a weightless golden jelly. Xin Gus carefully picked out a smaller piece, holding pliers in one hand and a short hammer in one hand, Tog held a heavy hammer, and the two began to hammer, one light and the other heavy. Nanfudu pinched out another piece of fine gold, and William struck his hand with a heavy hammer. "Ding! Dang! Ding! Dang!" The hammering sounds were intertwined in an orderly manner.
Under the scorching sun, William felt that what came out of his body was not sweat, but greasy oil. At this time, the four people had begun to take turns in pairs. No one could bear the continuous work, including William, who was extremely physically strong.
After not seeing William for several days, Finia and the little girl couldn't stay in the city anymore, so the elf's "teaching location" was moved to the forging ground. In fact, the so-called "teaching" was temporarily in name only, and the two little guys
Looking around the stove and looking around is very trouble-making. At this time, the summer in the north of Faerûn has entered July, and the weather has become hot. From time to time, Fenia will bring a bucket of cold river water from the Miral River and pour it into the logs.
bucket, and when the water in the bucket was not so cold, he poured one bucket on the heads of the four people.
What William and Nanfdo forged was Elf's rapier, because no one had ever forged a weapon made entirely of fine gold. Even the dwarfs had only experimented with a small amount of fine gold alloys in the alchemy laboratory, so although
They knew how to forge fine gold, but the few people with no experience could only practice it while groping, and the rapier requested by the elf who had the least "voice" became the first test object.
Fine gold has excellent malleability, but it is a bit difficult to deform this golden "jelly". It requires constant beating for a long time. William was a little depressed as he beat the "stubborn guy" on the anvil, using his
The terrifying force hit nearly a hundred times in succession, but it only made this little thing look a little flatter.
Just think of it as practicing Kung Fu! William, who was comforting himself in his mind, began to coordinate the muscles of his whole body, pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth and inhaled intently, and the hammer weighing dozens of pounds instantly turned into a meteor flying down from the sky, "Dang! Dang
!Dang!Dang!Dang——!” The rounded heavy hammer struck the fine gold rapidly and violently, and each shock was absorbed by William’s muscles and transformed into the next more brutal blow.
Nanfuduo, who was responsible for stabilizing the blank, was frightened by the ferocious hammering wind. He was covered in cold sweat and closed his eyes in fear, not even daring to look.
Although the accumulation of experience in previous lives can avoid early detours, the practice of martial arts is not about fighting monsters and upgrading after all. It requires not only hard practice and artistic conception, but also opportunities. It is like a person who suddenly lifts up his normal movements at a critical moment.
An immovable heavy object is like climbing an insurmountable high wall. The impossible becomes possible in an instant. This is opportunity. Ordinary people encounter this kind of opportunity. Not only can they not maintain it, but they may also injure themselves. However, practitioners of Chinese martial arts
What we pursue is to tap into our own potential and turn this opportunity into our own instincts through practice, even beyond the limits of the human body.
But if you want to really do it, you must first experience this experience. It's like a person learning to swim. He listened to a lot of swimming tips and techniques on the shore, but when he jumped into the water for the first time, he still could only drink "clear soup" and shout
To save lives; even if a person who can swim has not been in the water for decades, he can still float once he falls into the water. This is the instinctive memory of the body's experience. Therefore, some warriors will choose to practice in dangerous places such as cliffs and waves.
, or challenge and compete with others, and use dangerous environments to stimulate your potential, which is also called hitting opportunities.
(Digression: A certain martial artist was practicing on the edge of a cliff and trying to break through the bottleneck. He accidentally slipped and fell off the cliff, but he survived. Moreover, this adventure suddenly stimulated his potential and greatly increased his skills, making people think that he had obtained
What magic secrets are there? After defeating all the invincible opponents in the world, the martial artist has no motivation and encounters a bottleneck again. He returns to the cliff where he broke through last time and tries to break through again by jumping off the cliff. Unfortunately, he falls this time.
His brain was split. A guy who was following him secretly climbed down the cliff and found a personal collection of training experience from a martial artist. A few years later, someone who had become a powerful person accidentally revealed his martial arts skills while drunk.
The origin of the story, and then being hunted, and then jumping off a cliff... So the tradition of jumping off a cliff to get secrets spread.)
Some warriors may inadvertently encounter an opportunity when they are doing something, and William obviously encountered this situation. If An Jin wants to enter the Hua Jin, he needs to practice the strength of the whole body's fur, down to the smallest detail, and every move in the whole body.
Every pore can be controlled freely, and dark energy is flourishing everywhere in the body. It can be hard or soft, and it looks like it is breathing through the pores. The feathers cannot be added, and flies cannot fall.
Although William has not reached this stage yet, he is not far away from practicing the secret energy throughout his body, but there is always a big problem that bothers him. William did not know how to take care of his body in the initial stage of his previous life, so the secret injuries accumulated and were difficult to heal.
Later, although I captured the unique skill of "Mangniu Jin" for physical fitness and health preservation, it was too late after all. Although I rushed to the peak of Huajin, my body's vitality was damaged earlier and the foundation was not strong, and I finally failed to hold the elixir. But there was something abnormal in this life.
Although the power of blood can cause trouble, he can never use "Mang Niu Jin" to strengthen his physique and strengthen his vitality. Although William's physical talent is outstanding, with the help of his previous life experience, except for the face, lower yin, and back of the head, which are the most difficult places to train, all other parts of the body can be strengthened.
You can forcefully unleash your dark energy and hurt people invisible, but without the support of "reckless bull energy", you will be like a rootless floating tree, and your achievements will be limited.
On the surface, William was beating the fine gold crazily, but in his heart, he had already turned his attention to the inside of his body. With the pulsation of muscles all over his body, he always felt as if there was a thin film blocking him. William understood that this was because his strength had never penetrated.
The internal organs could not produce the effect of inner vision. However, he could use this to touch the changes in the power of blood. The hot power slowly circulated throughout the body, burning every inch of flesh and blood bit by bit. William couldn't help but let out a spontaneous cry.
The second "Bull Roar" after arriving in another world, "Moo——!" A low and distant roar of the Bull shook the world.
The power of blood in the body suddenly surged, and the speed of operation began to accelerate. While roaring, William tried his best to suppress the riot of blood, and subconsciously directed the excess heat into the hammer in his hand, and saw a raging fire instantly rising from the surface of the hammer.
The flames turned into flying fireballs and kept hitting the anvil. The rolling heat wave completely frightened the dwarf who struck him. He screamed and threw down the needle-nose pliers in his hand and rolled away.
Although without the dwarf's fixation, William, who could almost perfectly control every ounce of power, made the struck fine gold remain motionless as if it were growing on an anvil, and was continuously hit hard by the "Flame Hammer".
"Moo——!" Every exhalation of William was accompanied by a roar, like a bull as thick as a mountain mooing at the moon. Gradually, after the blood power boiled to its peak, it began to slowly sink and level off.
