Chapter 1278: Teaching the Technique of Forging
Uncle Li came to Long Mobai's temporary secret workshop and saw the strange furnace Yantai and bellows. He asked curiously: "Xiao Bai, can this iron stone be smelted? There is no blacksmith in the village who can forge it."
"Absolutely no problem." Long Mobai said: "Uncle Li, there is no blacksmith in the village, why not cultivate one in the village."
"It can't be that easy... Could it be that you know the art of forging!"
Hearing Long Mobai's words, Uncle Li suddenly realized that since he came to the village, he had brought many surprises to people.
"Are you trying to choose one from Tiezhu and the others?" Uncle Li asked, scanning the crowd.
Long Mobai shook his head, meaning it wasn't just them.
Uncle Li asked again: "Then you have chosen a good candidate!"
Tiezhu said at this time: "Uncle Li, we have discussed with Brother Bai, and you are the most suitable person in the village."
"What! Me?" Uncle Li was stunned, pointed at himself, then waved his hand and said: "No, no, no..."
Long Mobai smiled and said: "Uncle Li, I called you here to teach you the art of forging."
Uncle Li thought for a while and came down and said: "Okay, then I will do it for the sake of the village. I don't have to go to the towns to kneel down and beg for help."
"Okay, let's get started. You have to be optimistic...this step is to purify the iron stone."
"To forge fine iron without impurities, you must first calcine it at high temperature, and then hammer it repeatedly. The strength of each hammering must be consistent. Only in this way can you forge high-quality fine iron, which is full of toughness."
"I wrote it down..."
"Clang clang clang!"
Ye Li picked up the forged hammer and struck the iron iron.
The ferrite stone in front of you is very pure, but from the perspective of iron element, it is a mixture of iron and carbon. The components of this mixture are usually elemental iron and iron carbide. The iron-carbon mixture has three allotropes.
From a macro perspective of elements, there is no difference. From a micro perspective of crystal structure, there are differences between iron-carbon mixtures at different temperatures.
The higher the temperature, the higher the frequency and the shorter the wavelength.
As the temperature of the metal gradually increases, it changes from radiating invisible infrared light to red light, which is the closest to infrared light.
If it continues to be heated, it will emit light in the full visible light band, and it will become white light.
Nowadays, most of the metal temperature measurements are based on color.
Come and make sure.
Usually after the iron block is melted into white light, the purity of the refined iron is basically reached to the extreme without any impurities.
Uncle Li listened to Long Mobai's explanation while banging the red-hot iron. He wanted to try it himself.
It's a pity that his injury has not healed.
However, he noticed that every time he hit the iron block, the force started from his feet, then his waist, and finally his arms.
After half a day of hammering, Long Mobai hammered out an iron sheet as thin as a leaf, then set it into shape and put it into cold water to cool down quickly.
The last one came out in the shape of a shovel, and connected it with the wooden sticks prepared in advance.
"Tie Zhu, come and try..."
Long Mobai threw the first shovel he made to Tie Zhu, who caught it and shoveled it to the ground!
The next second, everyone was shocked. They didn't expect that a large piece of the ground could be dug out so easily.
Tie Zhu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Brother Bai, this thing is amazing!"
This thing feels a bit over the top.
Long Mobai smiled and said: "With this, the foundations of the houses in the village will be more stable."
Uncle Li came to Tiezhu in a wooden wheelchair, took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"There are no such things in towns."
"Yes, Uncle Li, last time I went to that iron shop in the north of the town and asked them to make a trapping hook. They deceived us."
Long Mobai smiled and said: "From now on, I can make these myself."
Dashi echoed: "Yes, the village has the convenience it has now, thanks to Brother Xiaobai."
Then three days passed. During the day, Long Mobai taught the young people in the village to practice boxing. In his spare time, he forged shovels and hammers, and secretly made some iron boxing armors for Tiezhu.
"Uncle Bai, I can't hold it anymore."
The little boy's legs were tied with weights, and his arms were spread out to do the golden rooster. He had been holding on for an hour and was sweating profusely.
Long Mobai crossed his arms and said, "Uncle Bai is already carrying fifty kilograms of weight at your age. He can't hold on until he's only fifteen kilograms. Do you still want to learn how to do it?"
Tie Zhu and others next to him had gloating expressions on their faces, and some of them snickered.
"You guys, don't be lazy, hurry up and do the actual combat drill." Long Mobai glanced at Tiezhu and others.
"It's...Brother Bai."
The village chief in the distance watched the young people training in the woods. Uncle Li looked at his son and smiled bitterly: "I don't know if this little kid can handle it."
"Don't worry, Xiaobai has his own sense of proportion." The village chief believed that his vision was not wrong, "Heizi, I haven't had a good rest these days. I went to the workshop to learn blacksmithing. How did it go?"
Uncle Li said: "That young man Xiaobai has no secrets. He sincerely teaches his skills, and the ability he has shown is amazing. Is the village chief really a fisherman?"
The village chief shook his head: "When I saw this young man for the first time, he did have a fishy smell, the kind that has been living at the beach for many years. You see, those seafood products can't be deceptive!"
"Then could he have come back from Kyoto?" Uncle Li had this suspicion in his mind.
The village chief said: "I can't say for sure. After all, we can't go to places like Kyoto."
The two of them looked at Tiezhu's actual combat drill. Every movement was very standardized, unlike the wild beasts fighting before.
Tiezhu was sparring with Dashi and noticed that the opponent's bear paws had changed. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Dashi, what are these palms of yours! How flexible are they?"
Dashihan smiled and said, "Brother Xiaobai changed it for me and called it Lian Bear's Paw. How about it?"
"Much better than before."
"Your tiger-shaped fist is not bad either. I find that your body is stronger than before."
"Brother Bai, he said that this boxing method is suitable for me and can improve my physical fitness. I found that now I can break a huge rock with all my strength."
"Snoring..."
Dashi swallowed his saliva. He thought that Tie Zhu was not exaggerating. Long Mobai asked them to practice palms and fists one by one, which was mutual restraint and restraint.
Only Dashi and Tiezhu want to be close in terms of strength, and the others are suitable for other boxing techniques.
For example, Long Mobai taught them the techniques of Dragon Fist, Lion Fist, and Leopard Fist. Whether they can master the essence depends on them.
Long Mobai looked at the time and said to the little boy, "That's it..."
As soon as the little boy heard that it was OK, he sat down on the ground and untied the weight without any extra strength.
Panting, there was no complaint in his eyes, because he knew that Brother Tiezhu and the others had become more powerful under Uncle Bai's guidance.
"cry!"
