"Brat, what's the highest temperature your German stove can reach?"
Gongsun Yue, who had recovered his energy, stood in front of Guhan Zhi's stove. Just now, Guhan Zhi had promised to give him half of the 200,000 RMB, which was 100,000 RMB. Therefore, Gongsun Yue immediately regained his fighting spirit and started to help Guhan repair the Yue King Sword.
"The upper limit is 16000 degrees, but if you turn off the safety settings, it can be raised to 18000 degrees!" Gongsun Zhi answered honestly.
"Then raise it to 18000 degrees!"
Gongsun Yue gave the order without hesitation. Although Gongsun Zhi didn't like his father, he didn't doubt his father's order at all. He turned off all the safety measures and raised the temperature to 18000 degrees, along with the warning that the furnace might explode if it went over 16000 degrees.
"According to the order and weight I told you before, throw all the ingredients into the furnace!"
To repair the Yue King Sword, Gongsun Yue prepared another batch of expensive materials. Guhan saw that there were more than three types of materials on the list that were priced at 20,000 RMB per gram. This batch of materials would probably cost around 100,000 RMB.
When Gongsun Zhi put all the materials into the stove according to the order and raised the temperature to 18000 degrees, the small crack on the Yue King Sword finally began to heal. The originally one-centimeter crack gradually shrank to eight millimeters, six millimeters, four millimeters, two millimeters, one millimeter!
However, when the crack shrank to one millimeter, it stopped healing. It froze at one millimeter for an hour without any change.
"Old man, did you use the wrong recipe?" Gongsun Zhi could not help but question the situation.
"Shut up, why did I give birth to a stupid son like you!"
Gongsun Yue's words made Gongsun Zhi choke. "The Yue King Sword was damaged along with the sword mark. If we don't repair the sword mark, even if the crack shrank to one millimeter, or one nanometer, it will still exist."
"But old man, according to what you said, the sword mark is not in the Yue King Sword. Even if the Yue King cultivates for the rest of his life, he won't be able to repair the sword mark!" Gongsun Zhi said hesitantly.
"Yes, so we have to find a way to repair the sword scar!"
Although Gongsun Yue was talking to Gongsun Zhi, his eyes were fixed on Guhan. Logically speaking, King Yue's sword mark should be inside Guhan's body.
"What do you need me to do?" Guhan sensed Gongsun Yue's intention and asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know if Mr. Military Governor has heard of the legends of Mo Xie and Gan Jiang Sword?" Gong Sunyue suddenly asked a somewhat off-topic question.
"I know!"
Guhan nodded. "Legend has it that during the Spring and Autumn Period, when the Middle Ages and Ancient Times were connected, there was a famous swordsmith, Gan Jiang. He was as famous as the God of Craftsmanship, Ou Zhizi.
The King of Chu ordered Gan Jiang to forge a pair of swords using all sorts of rare treasures. However, these materials could not be melted even after three years. The King of Chu felt that Gan Jiang had deceived him and planned to kill Gan Jiang. "
"In desperation, Gan Jiang's wife, also a swordsmith master, Mo Xie, jumped into the swordsmithing furnace and used her own body to melt all the rare treasures. Only then did she forge two unparalleled spiritual swords, Gan Jiang and Mo Xie.
According to the records, these two swords are rare Spirit Sword Maidens that were forged by humans. "
"Haha, so Mr. Military Governor is so knowledgeable. Then don't you know that today's incident with the King of Chu is similar to Gan Jiang and Mo Xie four thousand years ago?"
"Old thing, what do you mean by this?
My Gong Sun Clan's swordsmithing path is upright and upright, the path of a sage on the inside and a king on the outside.
How can we walk such a crooked path and harm the lives of others? "
Hearing Gongsun Yue's words, Gongsun Zhi's expression suddenly changed. This Gongsun Yue actually wanted to use such an evil method?
"Stinking brat, what upright and upright? It's all a lie to idiots like you. Which famous sword, spiritual sword, or immortal sword doesn't come with blood?"
Gongsun Yue's face was full of disdain, "Mr. Military Governor, that's all I have to say. Whether this King of Chu Sword succeeds or not depends on your own opinion. After all, the sword mark is in your body."
Gongsun Yue's so-called method was for Guhan to learn from Mo Xie four thousand years ago and jump into the furnace, using his own body and the sword mark to smelt the King of Chu Sword. Who asked the sword mark to be in Guhan's body?
Guhan hesitated. It wasn't that he was afraid of death. After all, this was a game, and he wasn't in a dungeon. If he died, he would immediately revive. What Guhan was hesitating about was that he didn't have any sword mark in his body. If he jumped in, it would probably be useless.
However, this was probably the only way to save the King of Chu Sword!
Guhan stood in place, not moving.
"Oh right, Mr. Military Governor, I have to remind you of something.
If you decide to jump in, please stab the King of Chu Sword into your Mind Palace before you die.
Although the temperature inside is as high as 18000 degrees, you should be able to live for about five seconds. You'll be able to experience the closest feeling to hell in this world! "
"Then may I ask Mr. Military Governor, have you made up your mind?"
"I've made up my mind. Open the furnace!"
…
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect someone to be willing to jump in.
Although there's no need to be afraid of death in the game, the five seconds of hell are like that. "
Gongsun Yue clicked his tongue in praise when he saw Gu Han jump down from the top of the furnace without any hesitation.
As for Gongsun Zhi, this was the first time he had seen someone die for the sword. He stared at the scene inside the furnace through the glass.
The moment Guhan fell into the furnace, he pounced at the King of Chu Sword floating in the furnace. In the blink of an eye, the King of Chu Sword stabbed into Guhan's body. Then, all of Guhan's hair turned into sparks. His skin quickly dehydrated and fell off. His muscles could dissolve, and his fat almost instantly melted into oil before vaporizing.
In just five seconds, all the organic matter on Gu Han's body had been vaporized, leaving only a pile of bones that were still being burned. In a few more minutes, these bones would also be completely cremated, turning into a pile of powder.
However, Gongsun Zhi and Gongsun Yue couldn't see the scene of the bones turning to dust. After all, this was a game. After Guhan died, his corpse turned into sparks of light and disappeared from the game.
"What a joke!
What a joke!
Who would've thought that the idiot would actually fall for a method I came up with! He actually jumped down! "Gongsun Yue burst into laughter when he saw Guhan die. He laughed so hard that tears were coming out of his eyes.
"Old thing, you're saying that you came up with this method?" Gongsun Zhi asked in disbelief.
"Of course. Which book in the Gongsun Clan has recorded this evil method of sacrificing oneself for the sword?"
Gongsun Yue harrumphed coldly. "This idiot, how dare he trick me with a word game. Did he really think that I, Gongsun Yue, would throw away my principles for 200,000 RMB?
Letting him die once in the game is really letting him off easy. "
"You bastard!"
Gongsun Zhi punched himself in the chest. "How am I going to explain this to the Military Governor when he comes back!"
"That's your problem. After all, you're the one who accepted the order, you're the one who bought the materials, and you're the one who repaired the sword yourself. My idiot son, I'm just giving you a suggestion. It has nothing to do with me."
"F * ck …" The viewers could more or less understand why the relationship between Gongsun Zhi and Gongsun Yue was so messed up. With a father like this, no one would be able to get along well.
Ding Dong!
At that moment, the electric furnace suddenly chimed. Gongsun Zhi was all too familiar with this sound. The furnace would only make such a sound when the Sword Maiden was completely repaired.
When the furnace made such a sound, it meant that the King of Yue had completely repaired it!
"What the hell?" Gongsun Zhi and Gongsun Yue looked at each other. They were starting to get confused.
… …
The fire in the cauldron gradually subsided, and King Yue was automatically sent out. Ignoring the scorching heat from the sword, Gongsun Zhi and Gongsun Yue each picked up a magnifying glass and examined the sword.
As expected, the cracks on the sword had completely disappeared. The King of Yue's Goujian Sword was completely repaired.
"Old thing, did you really come up with this sword sacrifice technique?" Gongsun Zhi couldn't believe his eyes. His worldview had been refreshed a few times today.
"If I told you that I didn't come up with this, would you believe me?"
Gongsun Yue was just as surprised as Gongsun Zhi. Just as they were about to study it in detail, Gongsun Zhi's communicator rang.
"Mr. Military Governor is back. He's knocking on the door!"
When Gongsun Zhi said this, he felt very ashamed. Although it seemed like he had accidentally fixed King Yue, when he thought about how it was just a trap his father had dug, he felt a sense of shame from the bottom of his heart.
"Let him in!
At least we can still earn another hundred thousand! "
Gongsun Yue didn't feel ashamed at all. He smiled and patted his son's shoulder like a brother. "Hey, we had a deal. The remaining hundred thousand is mine!"
Whether it was Gongsun Zhi, Gongsun Yue, or Guhan who came in later, none of them noticed that the words' King of Yue's Goujian Sword were even less pronounced than the King of Yue's.
