Chapter 6 Subduing Zhuge Cheng

followed Zhuge Cheng to another room, the whole room was empty, as long as there was a crossbow cart in the middle, Zhuge Cheng explained on the side: "This is what the ancestors left back then, but the age is too old and can no longer be used!" However, I am still very good at making this kind of repeater, the ancestor repeater cart fired ten arrows, and I can make fifteen! ”

Lin Feng looked at the rather huge repeater cart in front of him, looked around and asked, "If my guess is correct, this kind of cart needs at least six people to operate, right?" ”

"Uh-huh, six people can operate this car to fight!" Zhuge Cheng nodded and replied: "Two people fix the body, two people add arrows, and two people shoot!" ”

Lin Feng stroked the old crossbow cart and praised, "Ling Zu is really a genius!" Although the ballista is quite cumbersome and requires high quality of personnel, the operation of six people to launch ten arrows is still greatly improved in terms of combat effectiveness! Speaking of this, Lin Feng looked at the wrench that was launched, and asked Zhuge Cheng: "Sir, I don't know if there is some kind of external force that acts as a human power to launch arrows, can it be improved?" ”

"Of course you can, the launch is only a requirement for force, and there is no other requirement, even if it is an animal, as long as it can be operated, it can be launched! It's just that you can't improve a repeater that uses animals to fire arrows, right? Besides, animals can't be so obedient! Zhuge Cheng took it for granted.

Lin Feng waved his hands and smiled, "Oh no! Sir, that's a bad word! Can you borrow a pot of water and a stove? ”

Zhuge Cheng looked puzzled, but still nodded and said, "Of course you can!" Come with me. ”

Sitting by the fire under the big tree in the courtyard smoking a cigarette, looking at the water that was about to boil on the fire, several people looked at Lin Feng blankly and suspiciously, and Lin Feng didn't explain much, because he knew that the explanation was also a blank explanation, if someone could understand it, it would only be Zhuge Cheng! Besides, the most important thing is that Lin Feng doesn't know how to use words to express and explain...

When the water boils, the lid begins to jump up slowly and rhythmically, and then faster and faster. Lin Feng glanced at everyone, except for Zhuge Cheng, several of them still looked at him with blank expressions for a while, and looked at the teapot for a while.

After half an hour, during which boiling water was added several times, Zhuge Cheng suddenly jumped up with excitement, and then laughed at Lin Feng: "Haha, I understand, I understand!" Hou Ye is really a god! ”

Yuan Biao asked suspiciously, "Mr. Zhuge , what do you see?" ”

Chen Qi also asked on the side: "Yes, what do you see?" ”

Zhuge Cheng stood there and calmed down his excitement a little, pointed to the lid of the pot that was still jumping around, and said, "Two of you, please see, why does the lid keep jumping?" ”

Chen Qi replied as a matter of course: "The water is boiling!" ”

"Yes! That's how the water boils, everyone knows it! Yuan Biao also replied on the side.

Zhuge Cheng shook his head and explained: "The water is boiling, but the reason why the lid of the pot beats is because of the push of water vapor!" After finishing speaking, he looked at the two who still didn't understand, and shook his head.

Lin Feng saw that the time was almost up, so he sent an invitation to Zhuge Cheng: "Sir is such a genius, wouldn't it be condescending to live in seclusion here?" I wonder if Mr. would like to join me in Shannan Province to help me? ”

Zhuge Cheng hurriedly nodded excitedly, then shook his head again, and said with a gloomy expression: "Thank you Lord Hou for your kindness, it's just that my mother died in the winter of the previous year, and I want to keep filial piety for three years!" Then Zhuge Cheng raised his head again and asked: "If the Hou Ye does not dislike the following, wait for the three years of filial piety to pass, and then go to Shannan Road to defect!" ”

Lin Feng couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly stood up and said happily: "Mr. is a person of great filial piety, which is admirable!" I will definitely wait for Mr. in Hanzhong Mansion, Shannan Province! ”

Zhuge Cheng knelt down on the side and saluted: "Thank you, Lord Hou!" Hou Ye knows the grace of the encounter, and he should do his best to make up his mind! ”

Lin Feng hurriedly went over to help Zhuge Cheng up: "Sir, please get up!" It is a blessing for me that my husband is willing to join my Shannan Province! After finishing speaking, Lin Feng looked at the furnishings in the yard, turned his head and said to Zhuge Cheng: "Although Mr. is at ease and filial piety, I will send someone to send some funds to Mr. when I turn around, I see that Mr. lives a tight life in order to study these things!" Saying that, Lin Feng patted Zhuge Cheng's arm: "Sir, you have to take care of your body, I will rely on Mr. more in the future!" ”

Zhuge Cheng nodded, and replied with a little ruddy eyes: "Hou Ye rest assured, the grace of knowing the encounter will not be worth it in this life!" ”

Before going out, Lin Feng suddenly stopped, turned his head to Zhuge Cheng and said, "Sir, do you know gunpowder?" ”

Zhuge Cheng nodded, looked at Lin Feng suspiciously, and asked, "Of course I know!" What's wrong, Master Hou? ”

Lin Feng turned around and returned to the courtyard, picked up a wooden stick from the ground, patted the end of the wooden stick and asked, "Sir, you said that if this is a spear, if a special iron pipe is tied to the head of the spear, and gunpowder is filled with it, when the two armies clash, gunpowder will be sprayed first, and then the spear will be used against the enemy, do you think this can be done?" ”

Zhuge Cheng took the wooden stick from Lin Feng's hand, touched his chin and pondered it a little, and nodded: "Well, there should be no problem!" As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Lin Feng: "Master Hou, don't worry!" I will try to improve one in the near future, and I will send it to Hou Ye after the test is successful! ”

"Okay! However, the power of gunpowder is unusual, so you should be careful in the process of making it! After finishing speaking, he patted Zhuge Cheng's shoulder vigorously, and Zhuge Cheng cast a grateful gaze.

The night before, in the thatched house, Zhuge Shiwu pinched his fingers and said to another person in the house: "Brother, just now I watched the sky at night, and tomorrow you will meet a nobleman!" ”

Zhuge Cheng glanced at Zhuge Shiwu with disdain: "Nobleman, hehe... Every time I hear you say that, what do you see when you look at the sky at night? Saying that, Zhuge Cheng stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhuge Shiwei and said, "Second brother, it's not me who said you!" What do you say you're doing day by day? Watch the sky at night, pinch your fingers! It's this stuff all day long! Last winter, you told me to go to the small river in Wangjia Village to wait for my other half, but I waited for a day, and when it was dark, a cow passed by! That's what you counted? Zhuge Cheng became more and more angry as he spoke: "Also, last month, you asked me to wait for the nobles outside the gate of Fanlou, and I met that one of the four young people in the capital, and then almost beat me up?" ”

Zhuge Shiwei scratched his head embarrassedly, but he was still a little unconvinced: "The first few times, it was because of the chaos in the sky, so I was wrong!" This time it must be right, you will listen to me again, wander around the ancestral hall tomorrow, and make sure that a noble person will appear! ”

Zhuge Cheng still looked disdainful: "It depends on the situation, if there is nothing tomorrow, I will believe you again and go around the ancestral hall!" As he spoke, he turned his gaze to the outside of the room and sighed: "Hey, no one knows about my big inventions!" Let me put all the money for the construction of the ancestral hall into it! ”

Zhuge Shiwei got up and patted Zhuge Cheng on the shoulder, encouraging him and said, "It's okay, money is a trivial matter, I'll go outside the door to raise donations tomorrow!" Remember tomorrow's nobles! As he spoke, he yawned, waved his hand and said, "I'll go back to the house first, brother!" I'm sleepy, and tomorrow I have to raise money to repair the ancestral hall! After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Zhuge Cheng to reply, and left the house.
