Chapter 0615 – Fixed Light Sword (II)
Zhuang Rui saw Huangfu Yun’s excited look and casually replied, “It’s called the Fixed Light Sword! What’s wrong?”
As the saying goes, there are specialties, although Zhuang Rui followed Uncle De to learn miscellaneous appraisal, but for swords and knives, including bronze antiques, is not a very good understanding of this “fixed light” two words, the brain is also not the slightest impression.
“What’s wrong? You don’t know?”
Huangfu Yun looked at Zhuang Rui like a monster and said, “This sword is a historical sword that is on par with the Xuan Yuan Sword and Tai Kang Sword! It’s no less than those swords in the legends.”
Huangfu Yun mentioned Xuanyuan Sword, Zhuang Rui had heard of it, as if the Yellow Emperor had defeated Chi You with that sword, but these were all mythological stories, Zhuang Rui didn’t really believe in them.
“Xiao Zhuang, Huangfu is right, you this bronze sword, greatly famous in history, also don’t know how your luck is so good, actually even this thing can come across ……”
Professor Meng gently rubbed his fingers over the sword body, that look of concentration, like caressing a woman’s skin in general, looking at Zhuang Rui’s body straight up goosebumps, is this the legendary sentimental sword?
“Lucky, hey, just lucky, then thought it was an ordinary iron sword, and this sword is just a little sharp, teacher, is there any other function?”
Although the heart complacent, Zhuang Rui still put on a look of a fluke to get, listen to the side of the Huangfu cloud teeth straight itchy, buddy me every day in the Panjiayuan around, how is not you that luck ah?
“Legend fixed light sword, can gather the sun and moon light in the tip of the blade, but this is just a rumor, let’s try this day …….”
Seeing this famous sword that can be counted in Chinese history, Professor Meng also lost his composure and actually wanted to see if the words of the legend were true.
Professor Meng’s office, divided into east and west, in the west there is a window, Professor Meng went over to open the window, at this time it is already more than one in the afternoon, the sun slightly westward slanting, coincidentally, this day the sun is good, no window cover, brilliant sunlight suddenly let the office and a few minutes of brightness.
Professor Meng will be in the hands of the “fixed light” sword to the sunlight, the room a few people, suddenly eyes are staring at the “fixed light” sword.
“Damn …… this …… this is not real right?”
“Tingguang” sword itself body pan-bronze color, some dark, not the kind of light can identify people type of sword, but in the sunlight irradiation to the sword body, the whole fixed light sword seems to be alive, that above the satin pattern is like waves, seems to be in the layers of surging.
The most let Zhuang Rui incredulous is, that layer of wave-like satin pattern, seems to be what invisible force guiding, have surged to the tip of the fixed light sword, fixed eyes, the tip of the sword as if inlaid with a jewel in general, in the sunshine shining brightly.
Not only Zhuang Rui, is Peng Fei and Huangfu Yun also looked dumbfounded, this is also too marvelous a little it! Now there was no need to doubt, the legend that the sword could gather the light of the sun and the moon at the tip of the blade should be true.
After Professor Meng removed the sword, the light dispersed, and Peng Fei rubbed his eyes and said, “Brother Zhuang, I wasn’t blinded just now, was I?”
Zhuang Rui replied back, “I don’t know if you have blurred eyes, anyway, I feel like I have blurred eyes.”
“Hehe, this can be explained, this is due to the special satin patterns on the stereoscopic sword, making the light uniformly refracted to the tip of the sword… Xiao Zhuang, such a sword can be called a priceless treasure! These satin patterns alone are worth studying.”
Professor Meng couldn’t help but smile when he saw Zhuang Rui and the others with stunned faces, he had seen the satin patterns on swords and knives have the function of refracting light before, but like the Fixed Light Sword, which could refract light to a single point, it was unparalleled.
“Brother Zhuang, what exactly is this sword of yours? So magical?”
Peng Fei still had a foggy head at the moment, just that he was asking the wrong person, Zhuang Rui besides knowing that this sword was called Tingguang, he was also confused about its origin.
“Young man, the origin of this sword can be big, he is the reign of Yin Shang King Taijia, pouring the whole country’s strength, took four years of time to cast a successful sword, for the Shang royal family to suppress one of the sacred weapons ……”
Prof. Meng knew that Zhuang Rui didn’t know this history very well, and spoke out to explain to Peng Fei that the Tingguang Sword was extremely famous in history, only after the Xuanyuan, Yu Sword, Tengkong, Qi Sword, Taikang Sword, and the Clip Sword, and it could be ranked as the seventh most famous sword in the list.
And to Prof. Meng saw, not to mention the rest of the several swords now where, only to the sharpness, I’m afraid that is earlier unearthed Longquan Treasure Sword compared to it, is also not as good as.
And those legendary weapons, to now a not seen, which has the hand holding this really ah! Prof. Meng can already conclude that this one is the qualitative light sword cast by the King of Yin Shang.
Huangfu Yun suddenly asked: “Professor Meng, this sword is so magical, I’m afraid that when Lu Fangweng sighs ‘national revenge has not yet been avenged the old man, the box in the sword at night,’ I’m afraid that is not without a purpose, right?”
Prof. Meng froze for a moment at his words, then smiled bitterly and said, “Those are all written in martial arts novels, when the master encounters danger, the sword in the box will clank in the dead of night, young man, these things cannot be believed.”
“That’s not necessarily true, old brother Zhuang, you must hang it on the wall of your bedroom at night, maybe this precious sword will do so!”
Huangfu Yun shook his head and said something that made everyone cry and laugh, Zhuang Rui even secretly slandered, buddy if you are doing that when this sword screams so loud, isn’t it disturbing people’s good deeds? Encounter a timid, I’m afraid that directly into Viagra.
Handed the fixed light sword back to Zhuang Rui, Professor Meng suddenly wanted to see the sharpness of this fixed light sword, so he asked Zhuang Rui, “Xiao Zhuang, have you brought any copper coins?”
“Brought a dozen or so, Mr. Meng, do you want to try the sword?”
Zhuang Rui had thought of this possibility when he arrived, and had more than a dozen copper coins in his pocket.
Prof. Meng waved his hand and said, “I can’t do it, my old eyes are blurry, it’s better if you do it!”
“Brother Zhuang, I’ll …… come.”
Zhuang Rui has not yet answered, Peng Fei on the side is already eager to try, he was in the army, like to play cold weapons, at this moment to see so ancient sword, also want to get on the hand to drill a little.
“OK, be careful, don’t hurt the sword ……”
Zhuang Rui nodded and took out the copper coins, this time he didn’t put so many, he just stacked five coins at the foot of the table, then handed the sword to Peng Fei.
Peng Fei made a few gestures to the table, a sword chopped down, his technique and wrist strength, far from Zhuang Rui can be compared, the force is full, the crowd only heard “ding” a crunch, the blade of the sword is already cut into the imitation mahogany table.
“Sharpens iron like mud, blows hair and breaks, good sword, good sword!”
Professor Meng picked up the copper coins that had been chopped in half on the table and looked at it, although for these behaviors that couldn’t be explained by science, Professor Meng had seen more than enough of them in the past, but his eyes still revealed an unbelievable look.
Don’t look at the current technological prosperity, but for a lot of ancient inventions, up to now are unable to explain, not to mention, is the Chinese medicine pulse, how the gas is generated, there is no axiom.
Holding a sword in the hands of Peng Fei was also surprised, picked up the “stereo sword” in front of the eyes to see a bit, the edge of the edge of a little bit of the volume of the mouth are not, Peng Fei can not help but stagger, this sword is simply sharper than their own pocketknife.
After Prof. Meng calmed down, he looked at Zhuang Rui and said: “Xiao Zhuang ah! Teacher I have a request, I don’t know ……”
Halfway through his words, Professor Meng’s face revealed a look of difficulty.
“Teacher, you said ……”
Zhuang Rui saw Professor Meng’s expression, couldn’t help but secretly cry out in his heart, your old man can never say that you want me to dedicate it to the country or something like that ah! This thing can’t be handed over even if it offends Professor Meng, this graduate school is not read, Zhuang Rui also can’t give up this sword.
“Little Zhuang ah! These years, although through the field archaeology, unearthed a lot of bronze weapons, including bronze swords, can be said to be endless, colorful, the discovery of the sword of King Wu Fuzha and the sword of King Goujian of Yue, it is even more shocked at home and abroad.”
Professor Meng said here when a pause, then said: “just that the two swords are too famous, I see is to see, but want to borrow over to study and analyze, others are not to give the old man this face, Xiao Zhuang, I want to ask you to borrow this sword, analyze the composition of its texture and material.”
Professor Meng early years had done a subject, is to study the ancient bronze sword buried in the ground thousands of years later, why can no rust corrosion clean as new, and sharp edge, just no physical research, also put this subject down.
However, later quantitative chemical analysis was applied to the bronze evidence work, Prof. Meng also know is forged copper tin gold iron ratio, caused by this phenomenon of rust and corrosion, but for this ratio, Prof. Meng has not had the time, there is no physical to study.
Now see Zhuang Rui’s sword, Prof. Meng’s early mind and alive, if you can thus solve this mystery in the ancient forging process, it is also not lost to overcome a major archaeological subject.
Zhuang Rui heard this, his heart immediately relaxed a lot, as long as it is not for him to surrender to the state, borrow the past to analyze and study, Zhuang Rui can still accept.
“Xiao Zhuang, it’s not for you to put the sword in my place, you are relieved that I’m still not relieved! It’s like this, when you formally become my graduate student, you will be mainly responsible for researching the proportion of the texture material in the bronze sword, when the time comes that you need this sword, you can just bring it over again.”
Professor Meng saw Zhuang Rui didn’t say anything, thought that he didn’t agree, and hurriedly threw out an olive branch, knowing that a freshly enrolled graduate student is not qualified to develop the subject research on his own.
