Fang Feiyang listened quietly to Gu Mingquan telling the history of this Longquan sword.Already secretly surprised in my heart.

"Mr. Gu. Is the 'Shen Guanglong' sword shop you mentioned just now the 'Ren Zihao' Shen's sword shop?"

Gu Mingquan nodded and said: "Exactly. The casting process of Longquan sword has been passed down for thousands of years. It was in the heyday of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. The county town is a street along the north bank of the stream. From Tianfei Palace, which is now Xinhua Cinema. To the entrance of Guancang Lane The sword shops are connected to each other. The sound of jingle bells. It lasts day and night. There are seven sword shops, including Qianzihao, Wanzihao, Renzihao, Jinzihao, Yongzihao, Hezihao, and Zhou Guogui. Among them, Qianzihao Zheng Zhicheng and Wanzihao Zhou Ziwanghe Shen Zhangting, Shen's sword shop, is known as the three masters of Longquan swords."

"Oh. I'm no wonder... I once read an ancient book in the master's study. There is such a passage recorded in it. In the third year of the Republic of China (1914), Yang Yuqi, the magistrate of Qiu County, presided over an unprecedented sword-making elite attended by seven famous craftsmen. Great martial arts competition. Shen Tingzhang's sword. One sword pierced through three copper plates. The copper plates split at the sound. He split the other participating sword into two and was honored as "Sword Chief".

Fang Feiyang stretched his eyebrows.He slapped his thigh excitedly.Said excitedly.

Su Yazhi, the beautiful woman beside her, also beamed when she heard the words.Can't help but take this rusty sword that looks like a "fire stick" again.Said: "Could it be the one in our hands? That's really lucky. It makes people overjoyed."

Gu Mingquan also lamented Fang Feiyang's good luck.Then he said: "Whether this is the 'Sword Leader' of the Sword Forging Competition in the past remains to be verified. It must be restored to its original appearance. Only by carefully studying the characteristics of the weapon can we make a judgment."

Gu Mingquan thought for a moment.He said again: "However, one thing is certain. The master casting master of this sword should be the fourth generation heir of the Shen's Sword Shop of the Renzi brand. Master Shen Tingzhang made it himself..."

"Oh. Why is Mr. Gu so sure?" Fang Feiyang asked curiously.

顾明全自豪笃定的笑了笑。说道：“因为我对龙泉剑太有感情了。曾经花了20年的时间去研究这种宝剑的特征...普通的龙泉剑应该长至三尺。也就是约1.2米三左右。剑茎宽约0.08米。至剑尖宽约0.03米。剑脊之间约为0.1至0.8厘米。剑身最大厚度由剑柄端至剑尖端变薄。

Brother Fang's sword is about two feet two inches long.It is slightly shorter than ordinary Longquan swords.I didn't take it seriously at first.Then I took over the inspection.It was found that the unique forging 'dragon pattern' of the Longquan sword loomed on the body of this sword.Even at the end of the gauntlet on the hilt.I found the forging seal engraved with the identity symbol of Master Shen Tingzhang.

Su Yazhi's beautiful eyes flickered.He asked in disbelief: "The blade is so rusted. You can also see the mark."

Gu Mingquan was not in a hurry to explain.Instead, he ordered Fang Feiyang to find some No. 2000 water sandpaper in a nearby antique shop.I found another toothpaste and a pure cotton towel.

Toothpaste contains trace amounts of abrasives.Can clean teeth.This is well known.precisely because of this.Simple removal of patina with toothpaste is also one of the most protective measures.Not because the range of motion is too large.and damage the blade.

And those few sheets of water sandpaper as fine as 2000 grit can remove some rust accumulation.Or that spiky "rusty tink."

Simply prepare some tools and materials.Everyone searched casually and found a small hotel near Panjiayuan.Asked for a quiet private room.

Everyone held their breath.Looking forward to Gu Mingquan's masterful restoration.

After simple on-site processing.The original rusty sword body was polished regularly and angled by Gu Mingquan.There have been noticeable changes.The deep red patina gradually faded.Faintly, there seemed to be handwriting appearing.

Wait a moment quietly.Fang Feiyang's eyes are the brightest.He has seen it clearly.The surface of the sword is inlaid with the pattern of Jiaolong spitting beads and the three characters "Longquan sword" in regular script.The dragon pattern is slender.Vigorous and powerful.

The water sandpaper in Gu Mingquan's hand didn't stop.While grinding, he said: "Did you see it? These three words can already prove the body. But the seal of Master Shen Tingzhang I want to show you is not this. You look at the position of the sword hilt gauntlet..."

Grinding with toothpaste.And Gu Mingquan's reminder.Everyone found that the seven-star logo and the flying dragon pattern appeared at the end of the sword body surrounded by the gauntlet.Each star is in the shape of a dot.There are connections between them.It constitutes a symbol of the Big Dipper.The dragon-shaped pattern is even more lively, bright in color and lifelike.It's quite amazing.

Gu Mingquan stopped grinding.Wipe the sword body clean with a pure cotton towel.Satisfied, he nodded and said, "I see. The seven-star logo and flying dragon pattern are the forging imprints of a generation of swordsmith masters back then. It is also a unique skill in making Longquan swords. Master Shen Tingzhang first does not use colored brushes. Second, he does not follow the pattern. Only Use a steel chisel to carve the body of the sword, which is not too wide. After carving, pour copper water. It has been flattened and ground. The flying dragon pattern is vivid and natural. It will never disappear."

"Wow. What a beautiful pattern. It's really an amazing forging technique." Fang Feiyang also admired it.I can't put it down even more for the sword.

Gu Mingquan looked at Fang Feiyang's excited expression.Even more secretly bitter.This time, Brother Fang figured out the origin of the inheritance of this Longquan sword.I'm afraid I won't want to change hands again.

But if this ancient sword can be handed over to him to repair and grind it himself.Utilizes family tradition of grinding.fully show its original appearance.Restore the demeanor of the magic weapon of the year.It can also make up for the regret in my heart a little.

Think here.Gu Mingquan took the sword lightly.With a flick of the index finger.Immediately, there was a pleasant contention. "The sound is not crisp and bright enough. There are still impurities on the body that have not been polished. It needs to be completely restored to its former appearance. Several processes are still needed. Our conditions here are limited. Fine grinding and fine grinding are needed. Polishing... In addition, the wooden handle of this sword hilt has long been decayed. It needs to be specially repaired. It is best made of rosewood. The texture is tough and beautiful.

"...Brother Fang. Look. I can see that you won't make a move on this Longquan sword. But can you give it to me to repair it for you. Don't worry. I will not let you down. I I can guarantee it. After one month, you will see a Longquan artifact that is tough and sharp, flexible, natural in color, and cold in the light."

"Haha... That's really great. I think. This is the world. If anyone can restore this sharp weapon to its former glory, it must be Mr. Gu. Then I will temporarily entrust this sword to you gone."

Fang Feiyang heard Gu Mingquan's request.It is exactly what one could wish for.Now readily agree.

from beginning to end.Gu Mingquan did not talk to Fang Feiyang about the cost of the restoration.Fang Feiyang didn't know either.This Mr. Gu, who just met today, usually repairs a weapon for others as a top grinder.The daily salary is as high as 2 yuan.And their Gu family is a forging family.The master's unique weapon grinding secret technique.Normal people would ask him to repair some swords and the like.Can't even touch the door.

Today Gu Mingquan can lower his status.Get on the pole and beg others.Work for others.It was an unprecedented first time.
