Chapter 212: Soft as a feather, and extremely sharp, it can easily cut even black iron
Fortunately, Qin Shihuang and Lin Anlan came in person this time, otherwise we might have missed it.
"Someone must have used some shady means to sneak here."
As for these barbarians casting it themselves, it's a joke.
Such sophisticated bronze smelting technology could only have come from the Qin Dynasty.
"Just leave it here for now. One day we'll figure out the secret."
After a long time, the three of them recovered from their shock, and Ying Zheng whispered.
He also wanted to find out, but it was impossible for anyone to know.
The three continued to walk deeper into the temple.
Not long after they walked out, they saw a huge tree.
"This is a Bodhi tree." Lin Anlan said in surprise.
"This Bodhi tree is at least several hundred years old. It should be one of the dragon veins of the Magpie Dynasty."
"Dragon vein?" Lin Anlan and Zhang Han were both stunned.
Ying Zheng nodded: "When every dynasty is established, a dragon vein will be chosen as the imperial tomb to suppress the national destiny."
Lin Anlan frowned and said, "Since this is a dragon vein, why is it abandoned?"
Ying Zheng sneered.
"If I'm guessing correctly, this should be the feud between Ashoka and Buddhism."
"This is easy to explain. Just like Mount Tai, it is the dragon vein of our Great Qin, but we will not send troops to garrison it. It is useless for ordinary people to know this."
“Rather than calling this place the dragon vein of the Magpie Kingdom, it’s more like calling it the dragon vein of Buddhism.”
"King Ashoka and Buddhism have had a long-standing grudge. He plans to use the dragon veins to plot against Buddhism. This explains why."
Ying Zheng bent down, picked up a branch, drew on the ground, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Ashoka wanted to use the power of the dragon vein to plot against Buddhism, so he abandoned the dragon vein and made Buddhism lose the protection of the dragon vein."
As Ying Zheng spoke, Zhang Han showed a look of enlightenment.
The Bodhi tree is also known as the Buddha tree. It is said that wherever there is this tree, there will be a Buddha.
These are all from records of previous lives, and no one can tell whether they are true or false.
It has also been said that many Bodhi trees will be planted in a temple, but only one will survive in the end.
After another cup of tea, Lin Anlan said, "Brother Zheng, there shouldn't be any secrets here. Let's go and take a look at the mineral vein."
She reached out and took out the piece of ore, with a sharp look on her face.
It was mentioned in the secret art of mineral veins that where dragon veins exist, mineral resources are extremely rich.
She didn't believe it when she first learned about it, but later she understood it after Ying Zheng told her about the existence of dragon veins.
The dragon veins of the Qin Dynasty must not be touched, but it is different in other places.
Just dig him out!
Most exciting of all is the possibility of discovering other ores besides gold, silver, copper, and iron.
"Let's go, send someone to guard this place, and let's go check out other places."
Ying Zheng showed a thoughtful look, turned his head and took a deep look at the ancient tripod, but said nothing more and left slowly.
Several people were walking on the road, Lin Anlan's eyes were deep. The events that happened proved that history was far more complicated than imagined.
Maybe.
Myths will no longer be myths.
When he arrived at the mine, Lin Anlan just took a casual look and did not stop.
"Girl, how about the ore here?" Ying Zheng asked.
Lin Anlan shook his head: "These are just ordinary iron ores, of little value."
Continuing to go deeper, after walking for about half an hour, Lin Anlan's eyes suddenly lit up and he walked forward quickly.
Ying Zheng hurriedly followed and saw Lin Anlan squatting on the ground with a light blue stone half a person's height in front of him.
"What is this?" Ying Zheng asked puzzledly.
Lin Anlan said excitedly: "This is Guanghan Stone."
"Guanghan Stone?" It was the first time that Ying Zheng and the other man heard of this name.
Lin Anlan nodded: "Guanghan Stone is the best among all minerals. It is much rarer than Xuan Iron, and its function is also greater."
Lin Anlan spoke in a low voice, and couldn't help but think of the memories in his mind.
Each type of mineral recorded in the system has different uses, but she just couldn't believe that she would find Guanghan Stone here.
This thing is only born in extremely cold places, has a very high melting point, and can change the toughness of weapons.
But on second thought, who knows what this place was like hundreds of thousands of years ago.
Human records date back only a few thousand years, but the Earth has existed for hundreds of millions of years.
Thinking of this, she suddenly became extremely excited.
This is simply getting rich quickly!
As Lin Anlan explained, Ying Zheng and Zhang Han gradually began to look thoughtful.
"Girl, what's the difference between this Guanghan Stone and iron ore?"
Ying Zheng rubbed his palm across the ore, and a cold breath penetrated into his body.
I was moved. This was the first time I had seen such a magical mineral.
"It can improve the toughness of iron and increase the lethality of weapons."
"Iron tools blessed by Guanghan Stone can become as soft as a feather and extremely sharp. Even black iron can be cut easily."
Lin Anlan was ecstatic and completely unable to suppress the excitement in his heart.
As she spoke, she went to the side and knocked another stone away.
The stone fell off, revealing its original appearance, which was exactly the same as the blue stone just now.
However, there are not many that are half a person's height, and most of them are the size of a fist.
Iron is very hard and is widely used on battlefields. Its only drawback is that it is too hard and easily breaks.
But if Guanghan Stone is added, it would be equivalent to fusing bronze and iron.
"So magical?"
Ying Zheng and the other man were both shocked. If Guanghan Stone really had this effect, then the Qin Dynasty's iron smelting technology would be improved by an epoch-making level.
"Brother Zheng, this is just the use I know. Maybe this Guanghan Stone has other wonderful uses."
Suppressing his excitement, Lin Anlan's slow voice rang out.
What she has to do now is to integrate the memories given by the system.
Maybe.
Daqin will usher in a new era.
Ying Zheng took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement: "There are so many Guanghan stones here, how many weapons can be made?"
"If all of it is mined, it should be enough to equip an army of 30,000 people."
"Thirty thousand people!" Ying Zheng's eyes lit up.
Lin Anlan added: "However, these Guanghan stones are only on the surface. As for how many are there underground, further exploration is needed."
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "Then start the detection immediately."
"Zhang Han, this mine is now in your hands. Mining it with all your strength. Remember, this is a forbidden area. No one is allowed to enter without my order."
"I obey your command!" Zhang Han said with a fist salute.
Zhang Han's face was solemn, he clenched his fists tightly, and his voice became hoarse.
He did not dare to be careless at all, knowing how important this matter was to Daqin.
How could he not be excited to witness the epoch-making development?
"In that case, let's try our best to forge the sample first."
"It's a good opportunity to try out the effects on those kids from the Macedonian Empire."
Lin Anlan narrowed his eyes slightly and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The specific effect can only be known after it is forged.
