Chapter two hundred and eighty seventh changing with each passing day
"Hahaha!"
"Indeed, it seems that I am really old."
"Today's world is indeed changing with each passing day. When I was young, if someone had said that in the future there would be a spaceship that could go up to the sky to see the moon, and there would be a big ship that could sail across the five oceans to catch turtles, I would have found it hard to imagine."

"I am already old, and the future world belongs to young people after all."
Tie Guanlan smiled and then directly welcomed Zhao Cheng in.
Tie Qiunan, who was standing next to him, felt a little dizzy after hearing their conversation, and suspected that he was dreaming.
She has a grandfather who is a swordsman, so it is natural that she does not know what swordsman means. She is now seventeen years old, and her basic swordsmanship can only reach the master level, which is lv9. With her progress, it is only possible to reach the master level at the age of 24.
Previously, the swordsman was certified, but not guaranteed.
But Zhao Cheng is only seventeen now, the same age as her, but her grandfather said that he is a saint like him and that the world is too magical.
However, after listening to what Tie Guanlan said, and thinking about it now, it seemed that this was indeed the case, because Tie Guanlan usually looked at him and saw that he was just a relatively strong middle-aged man, and there was nothing surprising about him, and Zhao Cheng
,Also like this.
While she was distracted, Zhao Cheng and Tie Guanlan had already entered the living room.
"Brother Zhao Cheng, I already have an idea about making swords. Your divine will is a vast force. If you want to make a sword, it is best to use copper from Shouyang, cold iron from Kunlun, and warm jade from the four seas.
The three materials are smelted and forged. These three materials, one yin, one yang and one hunyuan, are the number of the three talents, and they are endless..."
"I wonder, brother, what do you think about this?"
Tie Guanlan asked after talking for a while.
He was just talking about his own thoughts. If Zhao Cheng had other ideas, he would naturally consider them.
"I don't know much about sword making, so I'll just follow what you said, brother."
Zhao Cheng responded.
He is not a person who pretends to understand something, and there is no need to do so. No one in the world is omniscient and omnipotent.
Wise men and strong men will not hide their ignorance, because they are confident.
"OK!"
Tie Guanlan nodded, and then invited Zhao Cheng to the study room and asked Zhao Cheng to draw the sword shape he wanted.
Zhao Cheng had never learned to draw before, but after doing it more than a hundred times, he had already mastered this skill.
So Zhao Cheng picked up the pen and immediately, very quickly, an ancient long sword appeared in the painting.
"What a wonderful painting!"
Tie Guanlan admired that he was not a great painter, but as a saint, he looked at things directly to see their divine will, and he could tell whether they were good or bad at a glance.
At this moment, to his eyes, in Zhao Cheng's painting, the sword in the painting seemed to be jumping out of the painting. The flying sword was killing people's heads with incredible sharpness.
At the same time, he couldn't stop thinking in his heart, are there really gods and humans in the world?!
The so-called heavenly beings are not those who descended from the sky, but are people whose spirits are in line with the general trend of heaven and earth, who adhere to the destiny of heaven and are destined to accomplish great things in the world.
But if we look at history in detail, such characters have always existed only in myths and legends. If we really look for examples, it turns out that no matter how powerful the heroes were in the past, they are still far behind the legendary gods.
But at this moment, Tie Guanlan felt that he seemed to have seen something real.
At this time, Zhao Cheng looked at his painting and was satisfied. The long sword in the painting was none other than what Kong Jie looked like now, or in other words, it was the look of the sword in Zhao Cheng's heart.
The form of Kong Jie is the embodiment of Zhao Cheng's mental image.
…
The time to start the furnace was the next morning. Early that morning, Zhao Chengcheng saw three pieces of different iron.
A piece seems to be red copper, but in fact it is Shouyang copper.
According to legend, Emperor Xuanyuan's Xuanyuan Sword was made of Shouyang iron. One side was engraved with the sun, moon and stars, and the other side was engraved with flowers, plants and trees. When it was cast, the sky and the earth shook.
This is a legend.
Xuanyuan Sword, Zhao Cheng has seen it, but it is not authentic. It is said to have been cast during the Warring States Period.
In Emperor Xuanyuan's time, there was no such thing as different iron.
The name Shouyang Bronze is based on the legend of Xuanyuan Sword Forging. In the legend, the Shouyang Bronze is as strong as the Yang. In reality, the different irons and the spirituality in them are indeed like this.
Kunlun Cold Iron is a piece of black fine iron. At first glance, it gives people a cold feeling. Even if you touch it in the summer, you will feel the coolness. But in fact, there were experiments very early on.
I measured the temperature in the room with a thermometer and found that it was just a psychological illusion. It was still a certain temperature.
Only Sihai Nuan Jade, which is said to be jade, is actually a type of iron. But at a glance, it feels like jade, extremely gentle and light.
Different iron is a general term. If you want to calculate it carefully, it can be divided into three, six or nine grades. However, the three pieces in front of you are undoubtedly of the highest quality, and you can't buy them if you have money.
The country is never stingy with true geniuses.
This was Zhao Cheng's first time seeing different iron. He could feel the strange fluctuations in the different iron. However, compared with the famous sword, these raw materials were missing something crucial.
The place where the sword is made is in the backyard, which is similar to what Zhao Cheng expected. The furnace tools here are the crystallization of modern technology, not the ancient carbon furnace bellows.
However, this is normal. As technology develops, casting will naturally develop as well.
"This furnace is still in the experimental stage in the laboratory. The temperature can be set in advance and adjusted at any time. The maximum temperature can reach four thousand degrees."
In the foundry room in the backyard, Tie Guanlan pointed to the furnace full of technology and said with a smile.
Four thousand degrees is actually nothing with today's technology. The powerful equipment is just that big, and the temperature can be adjusted flexibly.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye. For several days, Tie Guanlan turned on the furnace three times a day, once in the morning, noon and evening, and each time lasted about an hour.
However, neither the time nor the length of the furnace is fixed, but is constantly changing.
Zhao Cheng knew, however, that this was not an act of mystery by Tie Guanlan, but was in line with the changes in the time, place, and people.
Swordsmiths in ancient times paid great attention to the right time, place and person when making swords, and they also had to choose an auspicious day in the zodiac.
According to science, this takes into account changes in weather and air humidity. These things will also have an impact on the finished casting.
With the development of casting, not only has this point not disappeared, but it has become more refined.
However, only saints like Tie Guanlan can grasp the changes keenly. His realm is too low to do this.
Starting from the third day, Zhao Chengcheng began to mentally sense the iron bar made of three different irons in Tie Guanlan's hand.
Naturally, there is no need to go to such trouble to cast an ordinary famous sword, but if you want to achieve the highest degree of compatibility with the famous sword, 100%, or even more to stimulate the spirituality in the sword, it must be so.
This is because Zhao Cheng's realm is sufficient, and some people with a lower spiritual realm have to bleed during the casting process to nourish the sword with blood.
