When Yun Xichen re-opened the furnace, Yaya did not come. Instead, it was Rongrong who came. Yun Xichen did not hide anything. The forging method was divided into many branches, and each branch had its own unique secret method. This was not something that could be learned just by looking at it.
The temperature in the forging room was extremely high. Although the physical fitness of the demon race was far superior to that of humans, their reaction to the temperature of the natural world was not bad at all. Moreover, Rongrong was not good at demonic power. Soon, she began to sweat.
Yun Xichen, who was standing in front of the furnace, was not covered in sweat like Rong Rong. With his short hair, he wrapped his head with a towel. Staring at the red-hot iron ingot in the furnace, Yun Xichen looked less casual and more capable.
Feeling that it was about time, Yun Xichen used a pair of pliers to pick up the red-hot iron ingot from the furnace and placed it on the chopping board at the side. He then swung the hammer beside him and smashed it heavily.
The hammer was not small, weighing about ten pounds. As the hammer fell, sparks flew from the still red iron ingot. With a loud bang, it emitted an even brighter light before dimming again.
Yun Xichen felt that the hammer was in his hands, so he swung it again and smashed it heavily at the iron ingot.
Rong Rong saw Yun Xichen repeatedly smash an iron ingot and had an illusion that Yun Xichen seemed to have turned into another demon.
There were no tools to keep time in the forging room. Rong Rong watched from the side. After some time, Yun Xichen's movements did not change. Even the intervals between the swings of the hammer were about the same. Even the people watching from the side felt bored, let alone the people who were forging.
However, Yun Xichen focused on the iron ingot again and again without any impatience or distraction.
Rong Rong really could not stand the temperature in the forging room. Seeing Yun Xichen's concentrated look, she did not disturb him and left silently, leaving Yun Xichen alone to forge iron ingots.
As soon as she left the house, the bleak autumn wind immediately made Rongrong shiver. It was the first time she felt so cold in autumn.
"Rongrong." Yaya, who had been lying on the stone table in boredom, saw Rongrong coming out of the forging room. Her eyes lit up and she ran to her sister's side to ask," How is it? Was that big bastard hiding some secret?”
"Brother Xi Chen is just repeatedly hammering an iron ingot.”Rong Rong shook her head. What secret could there be in hammering an iron ingot?
"Ah?" Yaya pouted in disappointment. She thought she could give Yun Xichen some trouble in this aspect.
Rong Rong imagined how Yun Xichen would hang Yaya on the roof of the Red Fairy Tower. She could not help but smile and remind her," Sister Yaya, don't think about causing trouble for Brother Xichen. Be careful, he might really hang you on the roof of the Red Fairy Tower."”
"He dares!" Yaya shouted angrily. Thinking back to the day Yun Xichen dragged her through the streets, Yaya was uncertain and her confidence began to weaken.
Rong Rong covered her mouth and smiled.
Yaya suddenly thought of something and asked," Hey, Rongrong, why are you so concerned about this big bastard?”
"Because he's the younger brother, and I'm the older sister.”At this point, Rongrong's eyes that had been squinting turned into crescents, and her ears twitched. She was happy that she might have discovered a little secret from Yun Xichen." I think Brother Xichen has many secrets hidden in him. It's very interesting to dig out these secrets."”
Yaya knew that her younger sister liked to dig up secrets, but she didn't say anything. Wasn't Yun Xichen just a fox demon born from a Mud Mountain fox demon and a human? What secrets could there be?
Scratching her head a little irritably, Yaya decided to drink some wine to relieve her boredom.
……
It took Yun Xichen more than a month to complete the basic forging process. In the past month, Yun Xichen had forged the materials in his hands more than ten thousand times to remove the impurities. In layman's terms, it was tempered into steel.
This was only the completion of the first step and the beginning of the next step. It was still too early to say whether Yun Xichen could make them into a successful weapon.
At least, Yun Xichen dared to try.
Yun Xichen put down the hammer in his hand and weighed the rectangular steel in his hand. He nodded in satisfaction. After putting it away, Yun Xichen took the towel on his head and wiped his sweat to cool it down. He sighed lightly and extinguished the fire.
After completing the first step, Yun Xichen decided to give himself a break and stay here to forge. After eating simple meals for more than a month, Yun Xichen decided to go out and improve his life.
When she pushed the door open and walked out, a cold wind blew. Yun Xichen looked up at the stars in the sky and muttered," The weather is cold again."”
Yun Xichen thought about it carefully. It should be late autumn now, so there was no problem with the weather turning cold. It was already dark. Where would they go to eat?
When she returned to her room, she rummaged through the ingredients. The only ingredient Yun Xichen found was a cabbage, a cabbage that she was tired of eating.
"I hope Mud Mountain Inn is still open.”With her last hope, Yun Xichen walked towards Mud Mountain Inn.
Yun Xichen was halfway there when he heard a voice that was like a nightmare to him." You bastard!”
The corner of Yun Xichen's mouth twitched. He resisted the urge to run away and turned around respectfully." Miss Yaya."”
Yaya ran over and circled Yun Xichen a few times as if she was looking for something.
"What are you looking for?" Yun Xichen did not understand why Yaya was acting so strangely.
Yaya jumped up and grabbed Yun Xichen's collar." Where's your sword?"”
Yun Xichen did not understand why Yaya was asking him about the broken sword." It's broken. Don't you know?”
Realizing that she didn't express her meaning clearly, Yaya continued," Didn't you say that you wanted to forge a new sword? Where's the sword?"
"About this." Yun Xichen tapped Yaya's head and said helplessly," Do you think a sword can be forged in a month? I've only completed the first step.”
Yaya opened her mouth wide and blinked. She asked disappointedly," Then when can I see it?”
Yun Xichen was silent." I don't know."”
"You don't know?" Yaya's voice suddenly rose, and the disappointed expression on her face was immediately replaced by anger." You little brat, are you playing with me?!"”
Pushing Yaya's hand away, Yun Xichen straightened up and knocked Yaya's head with a backhand." You're a girl. Don't be so rough at such a young age. Be careful not to get married in the future."”
When Yaya heard that, she was instantly enraged." You can't marry your sister!”
Ice-blue demonic power flickered, and within the blue light, Ya Yadan's red eyes were particularly glaring.
"Don't fight here. Be careful not to damage the buildings of Mud Mountain.”Yun Xichen's words dispelled Yaya's thoughts of making a move." You don't want to see your sisters and nanny's disappointed eyes, do you?”
"Big bastard, just you wait!" Retracting her demonic power, Yaya said those harsh words, then turned around and walked away angrily.
Watching Yaya's back disappear, Yun Xichen touched his chin." Immature. She's a good piece of iron, but she needs to be hammered."”
Shaking his head, Yun Xichen threw all other thoughts out of his head. How to beat Yaya was not his concern. What he should be concerned about now was his protesting stomach.
When Yun Xichen walked to the entrance of Mud Mountain Inn and saw the " Closed " sign hanging on it and the ghost face drawn by Yaya next to it, an angry roar resounded through the entire street.
"Tushan Yaya!"
Yaya sneaked a peek at Yun Xichen from a distant alley. She was so angry that she stomped her feet and smiled sinisterly. Big bastard, I won't starve you to death!
