Chapter 478 [Reborn]

The three of them have fast feet, so the journey down the mountain does not seem to be too long.

Using the steps that Fang Chang opened up before, they passed through several jagged rocks and several large bushes, and arrived at the location of Lingjian Spring.

The name of Lingjian Spring was engraved flat on the big stone beside the spring, facing the sky.

Therefore, Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling did not see these three characters when they went up the mountain and because of the dark sky. But now the sun has come out, and there is no shelter next to Lingjian Spring, so the situation below is clear at a glance.

Just like the plaque in the Hall of No Names, when you first saw it, it was unremarkable, but the more you look at it, the more interesting these three characters are.

Liu Yuande stopped, pointed down and asked curiously: "Mr. Fang, why is the spring at the foot of the mountain in front named Lingjian Spring?"

Fang Chang also stopped, looked at the three words and said with a smile:

"You are also familiar with the Lingquan sword I carried on the back of the mountain before. It was a sword I forged for myself. When the Lingquan sword came out of the furnace, it was quenched in this spring. So the forged sword was taken It's called Lingquanjian, and this spring is also named Lingjianquan by me."

"So that's the case." Yu Qingling praised, "Mr. really knows how to name you."

"Hahaha." Fang Chang couldn't help laughing, he suddenly thought of something, so he said to Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling: "By the way, I saw you brought weapons when you went up the mountain. After breakfast, you will Give me your weapons, and I will optimize them."

…………

Breakfast is relatively simple, with a fried egg per person, thin bread rolls with vegetables, and a large bowl of tea.

The eggs come from the chicken shed on the cliff, and they are fried in oil until they are browned, and there is a runny heart in them. The ingredients for the bread and vegetables also come from the grain fields and vegetable beds on the cliff. The cakes are white and soft, and the vegetables are extremely fresh. The tea is produced by the tea trees on the edge of the cliff, and it is full of aura. Ordinary people like Liu Yuande and others can prolong their lives by drinking it.

"Well, I'll pack it up, you guys go get your sidearms."

After eating, Fang Chang put away the dishes, then asked Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling to go back to the house to get the weapons, while he washed them himself.

During these two days, they were arranged by Fang Chang to stay in a guest room in the Hall of No Names. The two returned to the room where they lived, and brought back the weapons they used to use. When they were walking outside, they kept their weapons close to their bodies, but when they came to Xianqi Cliff, firstly because it was safe here, and secondly because of the respect of the elders, they chose to put their weapons in their residences.

Yu Qingling and Liu Yuande's weapons are still the two that Fang Chang saw when he escorted the prison wagon with them. Yu Qingling's portable weapon is still the long, thin and narrow knife, and Liu Yuande's saber remains unchanged.

The two came out with their weapons in their hands. Seeing that Fang Chang had washed the dishes for breakfast and was sitting at the clean stone table, they walked forward, and the Fang Chang said:

"Mr. Fang, this is our weapon."

"Okay, leave it to me, you can drink tea here and wait." Fang Chang took the knife and sword and said.

"We are very curious. I don't know if you mind, sir. Shall we observe how you handle these two ordinary swords?" Yu Qingling couldn't hold back her curiosity, so she said bluntly to Fang Chang.

Of course Fang Chang didn't mind this, he smiled and said: "Actually, it's nothing, you don't dislike the burning fire, just come and have a look."

After all, he walked towards the work shed with the knife and sword in his hand, so Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling followed.

There are all kinds of kilns, large and small, in the shed, some are suitable for burning lime, some are suitable for firing porcelain, some are suitable for iron and copper smelting, some are suitable for steel smelting, and some are suitable for burning coke.

Fang Chang has a lot of free time, and things like kilns are not easy to break, so he has saved a lot in the past few years.

When Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling went up the cliff together, they saw a stove smoking in the shed. In fact, it was Fang Chang who smelted the furnace iron. At this time, the iron ingots that flowed into the groove next to the iron furnace had already cooled and condensed, and were just waiting to be put into the nearby reverberatory furnace to be smelted into crude steel.

Choosing a small stove suitable for simple operation, Fang Chang threw in some coke, and then lit the fire with the help of embers next to it.

With the operation of the bellows, the color of the flame inside the furnace changes gradually.

For a long time, Fang Chang has accumulated enough experience. He can estimate the temperature inside the furnace according to the color of the flame. Although it is not as good as a thermometer, it is sufficient for forging some common utensils and materials.

While waiting for the furnace temperature to rise, he removed the sheath and armor of the sword under the calm eyes of Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling, leaving only the blade in the middle. These two swords were bought by Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling when they were still walking in the rivers and lakes. The material is not good, but they have been used to it for many years.

Fang Chang threw the blades and swords into the furnace, waited until the flames burned them red, and when they were about to melt, he reached out to take them out, then picked up the hammer next to them, and forged each of them fifty-three times. However, he did not change the shape of the swords, and still maintained their original appearance. After all, this was the length and shape that the two of them were used to.

Then he threw the forged sword vigorously.

In the surprised eyes of Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling, the sword drew two traces in the air, and they were all thrown into the Lingjian Spring.

"Quenching, warm it up by the way, it will be fine in three days." He explained.

…………

For the next two days, Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling did not go into the mountains with Fang Chang to look for scenery.

They each took a shovel and a hoe and worked together with Fang Chang.

Weeding in the fields, watering materials and flowers, moving stones as building materials, digging and expanding the Jasper Pond... The two are in good physical condition, and they do things like this quickly and well, although they are far inferior to those above. long.

It was the day when they had planned to leave, and it was three days after Fang Chang helped them forge their swords.

Fang Chang waved his hand in the direction of Lingjian Spring, and the swords that had been forged before all broke through the water and flew over.

He took the sword in his hand and showed it to the two of them.

The originally bright sword had become slightly darker in appearance and was no longer so dazzling, but the blade was as clear as a pool of spring water, making it look very extraordinary. What's more, there is even a hint of sharpness lingering on it. Thinking about it carefully, it feels a bit like facing Mr. Fang's Lingquan sword.

Leading the two of them to the work shed, Fang Chang still used the equipment he removed earlier to restore the sword to its original state.

"Here, try how it feels."

The two took their respective weapons, Liu Yuande stabbed twice, and Yu Qingling pulled the saber. The already familiar weapon suddenly became smoother, like an arm extended a few feet, and there was no stagnation in its operation. Compared with the swords before, they are now completely reborn.
