Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The next day, the weather in Lin'an looked good, it was a cloudy sunny day, and the wind was not strong, today was the day when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince accompanied the envoy of the Jin Kingdom to watch the hot air balloon liftoff show, so far, all preparations seem to be in order, and a qiē looks satisfactory.
After the hot air balloon was made, he had already tried two rounds of liftoffs, and Zhao Dian felt that Mao Geng had underestimated the power of the hot air balloon that day, and it was obvious that the effect of the hot air balloon should be extremely good. It happened that the envoy of the Jin State arrived in Lin'an, and the father had to come down from the throne to receive the letter of the envoy of the Jin State, which was a shame anyway, especially to call the milky Wan Yan Jing his uncle, which made Zhao Dian quite angry.
Therefore, Zhao asked Zhao Tuan to let the envoys of the Jin State see the powerful hot air balloon, a new weapon. Zhao Tuan thought about it for a while, and thought that it would be good to deter the Jin people, so he agreed, so there was such an observation performance today.
In the school field, Jin envoy Wan Yande let the group notice that there was a row of fences in the school field, and soon after, a big white ball suddenly appeared in the row of fences, and after a while, the big white ball became bigger and bigger, and after a while, the huge white ball slowly rose, and then I saw a fire-breathing hanging basket rising over the fence with the big white ball, soaring up, but I saw that there was a samurai wearing bright iron armor standing in the hanging basket.
Yelujing, the deputy envoy of the Jin State, immediately remembered something, and asked Yang Wanli, who was accompanying him:
"Is this the hot air balloon that Novaya Gazeta wrote?"
Yang Wanli was a little surprised, and did not answer the rhetorical question:
"Can Xin Pao also be seen in Jinguo?"
Yang Wanli is a famous poet of the Great Song Dynasty, and has always been respected by the Jin government and the opposition, so this time he was recommended by Zhao Dian and served as the envoy of the Jin Guohe Zhengdan and the reviewer of the Record Academy, with the intention of suppressing the Jin people in poetry. Yelujing also admired Yang Wanli's poems, and when he saw Yang Wanli's rhetorical question, he didn't think he was angry, and replied happily:
"Xin Pao is also quite popular in my Dajin, and every time the issue of Xin Pao reaches my Dajin, I will engrave wax paper again, and I have also read it. Chen Liang's name, I Dajin has also heard of it, reading his articles, Wang Yang is wanton and interesting. After reading "The New Newspaper", how can you not know about the hot air balloon! So I guess this is the hot air balloon that the newspaper reported. ”
The story of Mao Geng's love in the air in "New Newspaper" has long been a good story spread throughout the Great Song Dynasty, but even the Jin people know it. Yang Wanli smiled and said:
"Not bad! Today, I invite the distinguished guests of the Jin Kingdom to watch the hot air balloon. ”
In the blink of an eye, the hot air balloon rose higher and higher, and there was no longer the sense of oppression when it just rose, at this moment the hot air balloon was led by two ropes, floating high in the air, and the Jin delegation here looked at the balloon in the sky one by one, and the heart was indescribably shocked. Although the newspaper talked about hot air balloons, after all, it was not as shocking as what they saw with their own eyes, and these people were wondering how to make a big guy fly into the sky, and at the same time thinking about what kind of wonderful performance would be in the next moment.
Du Boqing is in the hanging basket of the hot air balloon at the moment, overlooking the observation group below, where there is His Royal Highness the Prince of the Great Song Dynasty, and the great poet Yang Wanli of the Great Song Dynasty, as for those golden dogs, hum! Today is to let them see the power of the Great Song hot air balloon artifact.
After two rounds of hot air balloon test flights, Du Boqing finally defeated two test flight companions, and was honored to be the warrior of today's performance, which made Du Boqing proud. Truth be told, those two test pilots were great, but they weren't as lucky as themselves!
Suddenly, a flock of birds flew over, interrupting Du Boqing's train of thought. Du Boqing casually scolded a dirty word, his grandmother's! These stupid birds are here to join in the fun!
Maybe it's because Du Boqing is not inferior, a few stupid birds actually landed on the top of the hot air balloon airbag, Du Boqing looked at it, damn! This bird is quite big!
The birds were lying on the top and not stopping, looking at the posture, as if they were pecking at the silk with their sharp beaks, and they probably felt that the silk tasted very good.
Du Boqing scolded in his mouth, but there was nothing he could do about the stupid bird on the top. But then Du Boqing came up with an idea, I will raise the balloon again to see if you stupid birds can stand it.
Today's hot air balloon rises to a height of more than 200 zhang, the higher you go, the more you can feel the swishing cold, but the alcohol blowtorch in the hanging basket is spitting fire, Du Boqing does not feel the cold, but Du Boqing understands from Mr. Mao, the more it rises, the lower the temperature, those stupid birds do not have alcohol blowtorch to keep warm, in this cold spring season, these hairy livestock are only afraid of not being able to endure the cold.
So Du Boqing waved the flag and issued an order to raise the height upward, asking for a hot air balloon to rise below.
When the people below saw the banner, they didn't have time to think about it for a while, thinking that Du Boqing intended to make the performance more exciting today, and they might feel that the original height was not exciting enough, and they wanted to rise to a higher height to make the observation group enjoyable. The leader below also felt that it would be good to take advantage of today's opportunity to suppress the arrogance of these golden dogs, so he ordered the four soldiers below to follow Du Boqing's instructions and just release the hot air balloon to rise.
As the hot air balloon went up, Du Boqing only felt a gust of cold wind blowing over, and the more it rose, the more the cold wind blew harder, but Du Boqing was determined to force those damn stupid birds on top to fly away, and decided to continue to let the balloon rise.
I don't know how many zhang it has risen, and the stupid bird on the top of the balloon has flown away, but the hot air balloon was blown by the wind, and it has deviated far from the school field at this moment. Moreover, now Du Boqing obviously feels that breathing is extremely difficult. At this moment, Du Boqing felt a little bad, and looked down again, only to feel that the scenery below was getting smaller and smaller, and suddenly there was a sense of fear in his heart that he had never felt before, and he realized that Shicai was a little reckless, and he had to reduce the height as much as possible.
Du Boqing was busy playing the flag and asking the people below to pull down the hot air balloon, so the people below pulled it down again. But it is easy to rise and difficult to fall, Du Boqing only felt that a big stone was pressed on his chest at this moment, and his hands and feet were stiff, and he felt weak all over his body, so he had to simply squat down and gasp.
Finally reached a height that felt more comfortable, Du Boqing wanted to stand up, but at the moment both legs were numb, and when he finally stood up and shook the flag, the hot air balloon had dropped to a height of about two hundred zhang. Well, the height is just right!
Yiqiē seems to have returned to normal, and the next is the archery performance.
Du Boqing has always been proud of his archery martial arts. He eventually became the performer he is today because the other two were slightly inferior to him in aerial archery accuracy.
The target in the school field is very eye-catching, Du Boqing needs to shoot ten arrows, ten arrows shot in the circle even if the performance is successful, that means that the target can be shot at will in the air, enough to make people have a great fear of the hot air balloon, this is the purpose of this hot air balloon performance, to make the envoy of the Jin Kingdom afraid of the Great Song Dynasty.
But what I hate is that I don't know when the wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the wind direction will change from time to time, Du Boqing cursed, or picked up the special crossbow, ready to perform archery skills.
This crossbow is a new type of crossbow that has been modified, and is equipped with a ratchet device, so that it is extremely effortless and quick to open the bow, Du Boqing is extremely satisfied with this new crossbow, and he believes that even if there is wind, he can shoot into the circle.
Du Boqing pulled the lever, pulled the bowstring, loaded the first arrow, and began to aim.
But he immediately felt that something was wrong, because he felt that his arm was shaking slightly, which he had never done before, and he wanted to forcibly control his arm not to tremble, but he couldn't hold on for a while, and then he began to shake again. Repeated many times, it still looks the same.
Du Boqing gritted his teeth, and said in his heart that he couldn't care so much, let's shoot an arrow first! After aiming, an arrow was shot, and the feather arrow with the red tail feather shot out, flying straight to the target circle of the school field.
But unfortunately, the arrow was shot outside the circle.
Du Boqing felt embarrassed, so he rushed to shoot the target circle in the second arrow.
Who knew that the wind at this time was stronger than just now, Du Boqing was not breathing well in the high oxygen area, coupled with fear and nervousness, he invisibly consumed a huge amount of body, and Du Boqing, who was usually infinitely strong, suddenly felt that his hands and feet were a little disobedient at this time.
When a person is nervous, his muscles will stiffen, and if his muscles are stiff, he will be more nervous, and he is like this at the moment. Originally, with a ratchet, it was a labor-saving and quick thing to open the bow and arrow, but he made a fool of himself, and used brute force when he was wound, and as a result, he somehow broke the ratchet mechanism halfway, and sadly, he didn't know how to fix it.
At this moment, Du Boqing had no choice but to rely on his arm strength to wind up and shoot arrows. In normal times, this is nothing, but today it is really too much body consumption, it seems to be extremely difficult, and the more you get later, the more nervous you become, and the result of the tension on the spot is that all ten arrows are shot outside the circle, and one is more powerless than the other. This lame appearance made Du Boqing feel embarrassed.
Zhao Dian was extremely disappointed with today's terrible performance, his face was pale, and he didn't say a word.
However, after watching the performance, the Jin delegation still felt quite shocked.
Yelujing said in a protesting tone:
"Da Song's move is to demonstrate to my Dajin! Does the Great Song want to break the Song-Jin Peace Treaty and want to declare war on my Dajin! ”
Yang Wanli replied without humility or arrogance:
"This is just to let Daikin's guests see the wonderful hot air balloon, and there is no other intention. In fact, it was my first time to observe it, and it was an eye-opener. In our Great Song Dynasty, there are only a handful of people who have seen hot air balloons rise into the sky. ”
Compared with Yelujing, Wanyan Derang looked much more calm, he saluted Zhao Dan and said:
"Your Royal Highness, this Mao Geng, who listened to the hot air balloon, came to the Great Song Dynasty from our Dajin, and I want to see this Mao Geng, and I ask Your Highness to fulfill it!"
Wan Yan Derang felt that since this Mao Geng could understand such an artifact, it was said that he also understood other things, this person might become a threat to Dajin in the future, even if such a person could not let him return to Dajin to work, at least he had to set up a counter-plot or something, in short, he couldn't let Da Song rest assured that he could use his ability.
Of course, Zhao Dian didn't want Jin Ren to see Mao Geng, and his face was even more uncertain.
Seeing this, Yang Wanli excused himself:
"This matter has been discussed between the two countries, and it is difficult to do so."
Wan Yande made a laugh:
"Actually, we just want to buy some time watches from Mao Geng, I heard that the time watch is accurate, and we Dajin have long admired his name, and he bought some time watches, is it also a taboo in the Song Dynasty! Hehe, we don't mean anything else, we just want to make some deal with this person. ”
Buying and selling is certainly not taboo. Yang Wanli had no choice but to reply with a smile:
"Well, of course, it's done. Another day, I will be with you. ”
