Chapter 61: Repeater
"In my life, Bai Muye, I have never accepted coercion, so I don't need to use anyone or anything to restrain me, I won't accept it!" Bai Muye lowered his head and sharpened the nunchucks seriously.
Wei Tianzhen's heart sank, he opened his mouth, and after all, he didn't say anything.
"Jin Mi, this little girl, is strong on the surface, but she is actually very weak on the inside, if she is used as a bargaining chip for trading, she will definitely be sad in her heart if she doesn't say it!"
Bai Muye's gaze was very firm, and Wei Tianzhen looked a little cringe in comparison. Bai Muye knew that he had talked about his sore spots, and he didn't continue to stimulate him.
"You're thinking too much."
Wei Tianzhen finally squeezed out a sentence, but his breath was slightly vain.
"Yes, I often think about it, Brother Wei, don't take it to heart."
Bai Muye smiled casually, and instead of continuing to make things difficult, he changed the topic.
"Brother Wei will accompany me to see something in a while."
"What?"
"I stumbled across a book that is old, and there are a lot of strange things in it, and I think it's good to see this!"
Wei Tianzhen nodded absentmindedly.
didn't let them wait long, those carpenters rushed in, and saw Bai Muye's politeness one by one. Especially the few people who benefited last time, they all looked like they had seen the God of Wealth when they looked at Bai Muye.
"This Lang Jun, do you still want to make a stool today?"
Bai Muye looked at the person who spoke, and felt a little familiar, it should have been the last time they came to the house to make chairs. He smiled gently and said, "Don't make a stool today, let's have some excitement!" ”
"Huh?" The carpenters looked at each other and whispered from time to time.
There were two shrewd carpenters who were excited when they heard Bai Muye's words, it was a stool last time, and this time it might be a good thing!
The practice of getting a stool last time has made them excited until now - it will be a good deal to do more takeaway in the future! It's just that it's only been less than two days, and they haven't had time to do it yet.
"What is Lang Jun going to do? We are all the best carpenters in Zhaozhou, as long as you say, we will definitely do it! ”
"Zhuge Repeater, do you know?"
"Yes! I have it in my shop! A carpenter rushed to answer, but his expression was inevitably a little disappointed - such an ordinary thing didn't make a lot of money!
What?
Weapons are sold in a grand manner?
Bai Muye patted his head.
Confused! It's also a knife control in modern society!
"How long does it take you to build a crossbow?"
"It's been a long day!" The carpenter's face was full of pride.
"What's your name?"
"Under the surname Zhang, Lang Jun will call me Zhang Carpenter!"
Bai Muye nodded.
"Carpenter Zhang, how about you go back and get a finished repeater and show me?"
"Yes, Lang Jun wait, my shop is just across the street!"
Carpenter Zhang left in a hurry, and another old carpenter also stood up: "This Langjun, my crossbow making craft is ancestral, although it has not been made for many years, but the ancestral craft has not been lost." ”
Bai Muye looked at the trembling old carpenter and thought: It's still an ancestor! I think you're your ancestors!
He nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll look at the real thing later!" ”
Wei Tianzhen glanced at him from the side, secretly exclaiming surprise.
This person has been extremely strange since they first met, how can he hear this tone and never even see a crossbow?
Sure enough, Carpenter Zhang came back quickly, and he was holding a repeater of thirty or forty centimeters in his hand.
Bai Muye took the crossbow and put it in his hand to study it over and over again.
The shape is similar to that of modern steel crossbows, except that the arrows and arms are made of wood, which still looks bulky.
Wanting to test the power of this repeating crossbow, Bai Muye searched for a long time but couldn't find a place to change the arrows, and later found something strange on the side.
It must be this protruding wooden wedge, right? But how exactly is it used?
He handed the crossbow back to Carpenter Zhang and told him to fire it.
The crossbow was already loaded with arrows, but Carpenter Zhang took it, aimed at the wall ten meters away, pulled the string with one hand and pulled the trigger with the other, and with a "bang", an iron arrow hit the wall with a "bell".
Bai Muye paid attention to the repeating crossbow in Carpenter Zhang's hand, and after he launched it, he flicked the wooden wedge with his hand, and there was a soft "click" sound in the repeating crossbow, and it seemed that the arrow had been loaded.
He glanced at the repeater, walked over to the wall, picked up the somewhat damaged arrow, and looked at the mark that had been shot out of the wall.
It's okay! It's so much better than you expected!
A deep pit had been knocked out of the wall, and it was clear that the crossbow's strength was okay, but because the wall was a little crispy, the arrows didn't stay on the wall.
I just don't know what about the quasi-head?
Bai Muye tried it again.
In terms of feel, it is a little lighter than modern repeaters made of stainless steel, and it is not too stable to hold. Probably because of the lightness, the crossbow is a little floating when the arrow is shot, and the accuracy is naturally not very good!
"Carpenter Zhang, how many meters is the effective killing distance of your repeater?"
Carpenter Zhang looked at Bai Muye with a blank expression.
Holy-
Can you still talk pleasantly?
"How many steps can you shoot and injure with this repeater?"
"Sixty steps...... After sixty paces, he fell downward, and could not hurt anyone. Carpenter Zhang said truthfully.
It's too weak!
This was Bai Muye's first thought.
"Xiao Langjun, why do you want to do this? No one uses this repeater anymore. ”
"Why?"
"It's not as accurate as a bow and arrow, and it's troublesome to use. If you encounter a repeater made by a craftsman with poor craftsmanship, you won't be able to shoot people at all! ”
Carpenter Zhang had an expression of "I won't fool you", and seemed to think that it was very unauthentic to sell impractical things to customers who didn't understand.
Bai Muye thought for a while and asked, "Can you still make a repeater with a longer range?" ”
"This ......" Carpenter Zhang was a little embarrassed.
His expression really disappointed Bai Muye, he must be a layman to make such an accurate thing, and he could only give a little improvement based on his knowledge of the use of equipment and common sense of physics. If this repeater can only reach this level, it really won't have any effect.
"Old decay me...... My family has a good crossbow from my ancestors, and the crossbow arrow can shoot more than 100 steps! ”
While they were discussing, an old voice suddenly came from behind them.
Hey?
Bai Muye looked back and saw that it was the "ancestral" old man just now.
"Hundred steps?" Bai Muye was afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he asked again.
The old carpenter nodded and deliberately emphasized: "More than 100 steps!" ”
Bai Muye's heart suddenly felt a little excited, and he asked, "Is there a finished repeater at my father-in-law's house?" ”
The old carpenter touched his gray beard and said proudly: "There is a set, all the crossbows and arrows, it is a good set of heirlooms." It's just that this thing is long gone, and I don't know where to put it. If Xiao Langjun wants, I can go back and find it. ”
"My father-in-law's surname?"
"Xiao Langjun is polite, the old man's surname is Qin!"
Bai Muye hugged his fist at the old carpenter: "Then please ask Uncle Qin to run!" ”
