Zhan Beihan said coolly: "I see that the emperor's brother has become more and more slack in practicing martial arts. He is originally a three-legged cat. If he doesn't practice more frequently, he will lose his legs!"
Prince: "..."
Xiao Lingyue couldn't help laughing, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
The Dragon Scale Guard next to him had a tight face, fearing that he would laugh out loud and discredit His Highness the Crown Prince.
The prince didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he simply gave up: "I am indeed not as good as you in this aspect, forget it, you should do it!"
Zhan Beihan didn't refuse, drew out his blade, and casually stabbed the next piece of iron wood.
I thought it would be easily punctured this time.
Unexpectedly, the blade only penetrated a small section and was blocked.
The prince was stunned: "What's going on?"
Zhan Beihan's eyebrows moved slightly, and he said coldly: "There is something inside, and a knife can't penetrate it!"
"Try again in another place," the prince said.
Zhan Beihan pulled out the blade, moved it to a higher position, and stabbed in with force.
His arm trembled slightly and he frowned: "There is still something, it's very hard."
Even Zhan Beihan couldn't pierce it, and its hardness was obviously beyond the normal range.
Xiao Lingyue's eyes flashed.
The prince decisively ordered: "Come two people, move this piece of wood to the open space, and then bring the wood saw over and cut the wood into pieces."
A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "I would like to see what is hidden inside!"
"yes!"
Several Dragon Scale Guards immediately stepped forward and used their shoulders to lift the log.
Just as soon as it was on the shoulders, the expressions of several Dragon Scale Guards changed slightly: "Your Highnesses, this piece of wood is extremely heavy!"
"Be careful and move it down slowly. Third brother, Shen Wan, please stand aside." The prince said.
Xiao Lingyue and Zhan Beihan stepped aside.
With the help of several Dragon Scale Guards, it took a lot of effort to move the iron log, which was thick enough for two people to hold it together, from the wood pile and roll it to the open space next to it.
Another dragon scale guard also returned with a wooden saw.
Several people worked together to stabilize the wood, while the other people started sawing directly from the middle section of the iron wood.
However, the Dragon Scale Guards only cut halfway, and the wood saw could no longer cut.
There seemed to be hard stones hidden inside the wood, and the iron saw teeth made a harsh sound when pulled hard.
"Go and get the axe, while the others change the direction of the saw and stop when they hit something hard. I will pull off all the wood on the surface!" the prince ordered with an ugly face.
The Dragon Scale Guard immediately complied.
With the cooperation of countless wood saws and axes, a dozen young and strong Dragon Scale Guards, sweating profusely from exhaustion, finally cut open the thick ironwood completely.
The outer wood was chopped off piece by piece and scattered on the ground in a mess.
In the end, only a strange "wooden heart" was left.
This "wooden heart" is about the thickness of two fists, broken into many sections in the middle, each section is two to three meters long, has pits on the surface, black in color and red in color, and looks like ugly fire sticks.
.
But its weight was very heavy, and when it fell on the wet soil, the soil dented slightly.
No one knows how these things were stuffed into the wood.
The prince walked over with a serious face, bent down and picked up a piece of "wooden heart", and said solemnly: "This is thick iron that has just been melted!"
The so-called crude iron refers to the iron lumps formed after the iron juice has just been smelted from iron ore and cooled.
The appearance is bumpy and has a lot of impurities.
This kind of crude iron is the most basic iron embryo. It requires blacksmiths to repeatedly calcine, beat and remove impurities before it can be made into various iron tools. This chapter has been completed!
