Rebirth and Conferred God: Against Heaven and Become Holy

Chapter 355
During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, bronze ware was widely used.

From the Warring States period to the early Eastern Han Dynasty, the use of iron became common and became the most important metal.

Compared with bronze, the hardness of iron is several times that of bronze.

When Su Yuan was at Sanshan Pass, he discovered iron ore in the mountains, so although he left Sanshan Pass, he asked Deng Jiugong to help collect iron ore, and then transported it to Yanshan Mountain.

Later, when he arrived in Yanshan, Su Yuan immediately ordered Hei Niu to invite Chaoge's craftsmen to Yanshan to start refining iron ore.

Now the army has arrived at Jiamengguan, and all the craftsmen are also marching with the army.

Su Yuan didn't show up for the past few days, and he was leading the craftsmen to seize the time to refine iron ore.

Looking at the black iron rod held in Hei Niu's hand, Zheng Lun immediately shook his head and said, "What is this and what can it be used for?"

Su Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Zheng Lun, try hitting this piece of iron with a weapon."

Hei Niu immediately raised the black iron and stretched it out in front of him.

Zheng Lun wondered: "Brother, my Demon Subduing Pestle is made of Tianwai Shentie. Ordinary weapons will break if you smash it. The thing in Hei Niu's hand may not survive my smashing it."

Su Yuan didn't speak, but just waved his hand, which meant to ask Zheng Lun to try his best.

Zheng Lun raised the subduing pestle, but he still said worriedly: "Hei Niu, be careful, don't let my subduing pestle hurt you."

Hei Niu smiled slightly and said, "Go ahead."

Zheng Lun raised the subduing magic pestle and hit the iron rod in Hei Niu's hand.

There was only a sound of "铛", sparks splashed everywhere, and the subduing magic pestle was bounced back, but the iron rod in Hei Niu's hand was safe and sound.

Seeing this, Zheng Lun couldn't help being overjoyed, and asked Su Yuan, "Brother, did you find the Meteorite?"

Su Yuan shook his head and said, "Why do you need to go beyond the sky? It's just that there are everywhere on the ground. Although there is no guarantee that everyone will have an iron weapon in their hands, it will not be a problem to make three to five thousand pieces."

"Three to five thousand pieces?" Zheng Lun was immediately dumbfounded.

"However, the precision of these ironware is not pure, I'm afraid the fire is not enough." Looking at the stove in front of him, Su Yuan thought for a moment, then patted the jade brave on his waist, and saw a glazed lamp appearing in Su Yuan's eyes. far hands.

"Ma Shan, come out."

Following Su Yuan's words, the glazed light flickered, and the head of the lamp fell to the ground, turning into Ma Shan.

Su Yuan pointed to the stove in front of him and said, "Increase the temperature of the flame."

Ma Shan nodded immediately and plunged into the stove.

I saw the flame in the stove bursting out suddenly, and the flame showed a light purple color.

The purple flames indicate that the temperature has reached [-] degrees, which is exactly the temperature needed to purify iron ore.

"Hei Niu, keep hitting this iron rod to knock out all the impurities in the iron rod."

"Understood!" Hei Niu immediately took off his shirt, went into battle shirtless, heated the iron rod red, and raised the sledgehammer in his hand to hit it continuously.

Only the sound of "Dangdang" was heard continuously. Under the flames, Hei Niu was sweating profusely, and his whole body was reflected in red.

Under constant blows, the iron rod in Hei Niu's hand became smaller and brighter.

However, Hei Niu's sledgehammer was also made of bronze, so it couldn't withstand the [-]-degree heat in the furnace.

Therefore, after hitting for a while, Hei Niu could only change the sledgehammer. After breaking seven or eight sledgehammers, Hei Niu put the iron rod into the river beside him.

With the sound of "stabbing", a burst of white air came out, and the red iron rod gradually faded from red, and slowly turned into silver.

When the red color faded completely, Hei Niu took out the iron rod, and in Hei Niu's hand was a paper-thin iron sword with flowing silver light.

Seeing such a thin iron sword, Zheng Lun couldn't help wondering: "Wouldn't it be so thin that it would break if you hit it?"

Su Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Hei Niu, stand the iron sword on the ground and hit it with a sledgehammer."

"clear."

Hei Niu immediately raised the blade of the iron sword, asked the craftsman to hold it up, and raised the sledgehammer in his hand.

But looking at the iron sword as thin as a piece of paper, Hei Niu raised the hammer and hesitated.

"Brother, it won't be broken, will it?"

"Smash."

Following Su Yuan's order, Hei Niu just closed his eyes and dropped the sledgehammer hard.

He only heard the sound of "stab", and saw the sledgehammer falling straight down, even directly passing the iron sword.

Seeing this, Hei Niu immediately said heartbroken: "It's broken, it seems to be broken."

But as soon as Hei Niu's words fell, the sledgehammer in his hand "plopped" and split into two pieces, each falling to the ground.

I saw that the surface of the sledgehammer was smooth, and it was cut off impressively.

When looking at the iron sword again, not only was it intact, but the blade was still extremely sharp.

Seeing this, Hei Niu grabbed the iron sword, held it up in front of him in disbelief, and exclaimed excitedly, "It's a magic weapon, isn't it?"

Speaking of this, Hei Niu swung his iron sword again and again, and slashed at the surrounding sledgehammers.

The sledgehammer with a strong and thick handle was like paper paste under the iron sword, and it became two pieces when it was split.

At this moment, Zheng Lun immediately shook his body, and the craftsmen around him were also shocked.

All of a sudden, all the craftsmen around knelt down and bowed to Hei Niu: "Master, master!"

Only a craftsman who can create a divine weapon can hold back the name of a master craftsman.

Hei Niu held the iron sword in his hand, and his body was already trembling with excitement.

"Brother, am I really the one who created me?"

Su Yuan smiled slightly and said, "That's right. However, this is just the beginning. Iron swords, iron spears, iron shields, iron horseshoes, black bulls, all of these must be completed within a month."

"Understood, brother." Hei Niu immediately agreed.

"However, before building these, Hei Niu, you should first build a hammer yourself."

Looking at the hammers that were all shattered into two pieces, Su Yuan smiled faintly.

From this day on, Hei Niu immediately started building like a madman.

The first weapon he forged was the hammer.

Although this hammer was the first to be forged, it was also considered the last to be completed.

Because every iron sword is forged by the forging of this iron hammer.

Three thousand times of forging can create an iron sword, but the hammer of Hei Niu has been tempered tens of thousands of times.

The number of forgings of all the iron swords added together is exactly equivalent to the number of forgings of this hammer.

A month later, when the camp was filled with iron tools, Hei Niu rested for the first time.

When he looked at the hammer in his hand again, he saw a flash of light flashing on the black hammer, the brilliance that only divine weapons can have.
