Chapter 261: Coming up with ideas

Meng Huan Chilong smiled and patted Lei Su, looked at him and said, "Still, ah! If you know how to refine weapons, you will definitely run into formations, and those spiritual weapons are all over the street." If the master doesn't help, when I'm done, I'll help you carve a few, but the level may not work. ”

Lei Suyu pondered for a while, and said: "It's definitely not okay to find Ah Gong, he is not happy to use weapons for me, and he also helps carve the talisman array? This matter falls on the head of the senior brother, anyway, you have carved the talisman array on the pillar stone, and there should be no problem with the weapon." ”

He looked at Lei Suyu and said helplessly: "Senior brother, I don't like to hear this, you have also carved the talisman array, you should be able to do it too." By the way, I have the tools, or you can engrave them first, and I'll see how the crossbow is made, that's business. ”

Lei Suyu took two steps back, and said in a bit of a panic: "No, I carved on the wood, and I scolded Ah Gong, saying that I had learned the talisman formation early and didn't have half of your ability, so I had to come to trouble Mr. Tian." By the way, Ah Gong said that you are a genius, and you still have to carve this talisman array, so it is decided, even if you carve it, it is a big deal to find another one. "That's a lot of money!

He shook his head, didn't have the heart to entangle with them, and said, "Okay, you guys will wait, I'll talk to Mr. Tian about something." Then he turned around and saluted Tian Zhikun. "Mr. Tian, I'm sorry, these two boys are bothering you, right?"

"No, Young Master Lei has always been like this, I'm used to it. ”

He smiled when he heard this, thinking that no wonder this kid wanted to grab land with Long Jinliu outside, it turned out that the Lei Chamber of Commerce was tired of playing, so he could only think of ideas to make trouble outside.

Glancing at the busy craftsmen around him, he said to Tian Zhikun: "Mr. Tian, I don't know how the crossbow trial is?"

"Although it is not finished yet, some functions have been tried, the range is about the same as we thought, and the coordination of various components is also smooth, so it should be no problem to take out the sample, as for the power, you can see for yourself. Tian Zhikun casually pointed to a corner of the courtyard, but there was a bit of smugness in his words.

Meng Huan Chilong looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a few iron rods tied to the stone wall of the courtyard, most of which were stuck in the wall, and only a small part was exposed outside the wall.

He didn't react at first, but soon understood that the iron rod was a crossbow spear with a strong crossbow, because the strong crossbow was so big, and the things that shot out were naturally big. Now a few iron rods are deeply rooted in the stone wall, and if they are pulled out, they are afraid that they will pull the wall in, so they are tied to the stone wall.

This made him a little excited, but he didn't expect that only more than two hours had passed, and the sample had been released, and it seemed that the power was not small. He was a good archer, and knew how powerful such a long crossbow spear could be to shoot it into a stone wall with a bowstring.

"How far did this come from?" asked a more professional question because he played with bows and arrows.

"Shot from the courtyard gate. Tian Zhikun turned around and looked at the door of the lower courtyard, as if estimating the distance between them.

He also looked in that direction, and found that the courtyard was quite large, at least forty feet from the gate to the wall. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Isn't this a little closer? If you add the strength to penetrate the wall, it will only be more than 200 zhang at most!"

Lei Suyu was also looking at the iron rod, and shouted when she heard this. "Senior brother, being able to shoot more than 200 zhang is already very powerful, and Uncle Tian can make it, which is very remarkable. ”

Tian Zhikun hurriedly said politely: "Thank you Young Master Lei for complimenting, the range of the strong crossbow is shorter, we have improved the slideway, and now the crossbow spears are all on the slideway, which can increase the stability of the crossbow spears flying out, but the power of the shot is still almost." These words confirmed what Meng Winding Red Dragon had just said.

Meng Huan Chilong's eyes lit up, and he said, "Yes, you said that it has been improved, and it has been formed?" Mr. Tian, go, take me to see." What is the reason why you say that the strength is not good?" said that he went to Latian Zhikun, anxious to see the finished crossbow, because he had never seen the strong crossbow he came up with.

Tian Zhikun saw that he was impatient, smiled slightly, turned around and walked into the workshop, and said as he walked: "Come with me!" We tried firing a few times, and felt that the material of the arch back was not easy to choose, the elasticity of using wood was not enough, and the power of the shot was small, so the range was not good, and now we are considering what material to use instead. However, the appearance of the strong crossbow did come out, and only some small places still had to be scrutinized. ”

Tian Zhikun felt that Meng Huan Chilong was sent by the city guard to supervise the production, so he used very popular language to explain the production of the strong crossbow.

He listened and nodded. "You're talking about wooden crossbows, aren't you okay with metal crossbows?"

Tian Zhikun glanced at him and replied: "There is a wooden strong crossbow as the base, and the metal strong crossbow is no problem, but it is also a problem with the back of the bow, that is, the material is not elastic, and it is elastic but not hard, and the strength is easy to break the back of the bow." ”

When he heard this, he said, "Go, go, let's see." "He has made wooden bows since he was a child, and he still knows a little about how to make bows.

When I walked into the workshop, I found that although the inside was smaller than the outside, it was more lively, and a group of craftsmen were busy coming in and out. Seeing how busy the craftsman was, he turned his head and glared at Lei Suyu, who was following behind to see the bustle.

"See, everyone has something to do now, just you two fooling around, if these things are done, we will have the certainty of dealing with the correct dynasty. If you two are really idle, go outside and help, and carry a piece of wood, right?"

Lei Suyu and Long Jinliu saw that he was going to get angry, so they were so frightened that they didn't dare to follow up, so they stopped at the door of the workshop.

Tian Zhikun walked to a wooden crossbow that had begun to take shape, and said, "This is a movable crossbow that can fire thirteen crossbow spears. Remember that the best crossbow in the Warclan Nation can only fire nine crossbow spears, so our attack power is stronger than theirs. ”

After listening to Tian Zhikun's words, and then looking at the strong crossbow that had been formed, he was excited, and now as long as it was to deal with the people of the upright dynasty, he was happy to see it.

The shape of the strong crossbow is similar to **, but it is much larger, and the components of the strong crossbow are the same as **, the bow, the arm, and the machine bracket. The bow is naturally the back of the bow, the bowstring, and the tenon needle on which the bowstring is hung. The arm is the chute and the place where the crossbow spear is placed, and the machine includes the launcher and aiming ruler.

Now the crossbow arms look very powerful, except for the middle main arm, there are six auxiliary arms next to each side, for a total of thirteen crossbow arms. The auxiliary arm is semi-cylindrical, and the main arm is cylindrical, with a gap in the cylinder that allows the bowstring to pop out of it. There is an aiming device at the top of the main arm, and the top of the auxiliary arm and the main arm are carved into a dragon head by craftsmen.

The machine is a wooden box, there is a row of metal hooks in it, which is for hanging the bowstring tenon, there are two plate machines in it, as long as one buckle, those hooks fall, the tenon is driven to fall, the bowstring pops out, and the crossbow spear can fly out.

One of the board machines controls the main arm and the other controls the auxiliary arm, from which it can be seen that there are two bowstrings in it, and the main arm and the auxiliary arm have different ranges, and can shoot crossbow spears separately. The crossbow spear of the main arm should have an aim head, so there is a sighting device. The auxiliary arm is a random shot, or when the main arm is attacking, the auxiliary arm plays a role in controlling the range.

Tian Zhikun just said that there was a problem with the bow back, so Meng Huan Chilong took a special look at it and asked: "Now the elasticity of this bow back is not good, what materials are you going to use instead?"

"We thought about all the trees, basically there is no good elasticity, some people proposed to use bamboo, but the elasticity of bamboo is there, but the strength is not good. We chose the best strength of amethyst bamboo and tried, the effect is not very good, unless the auxiliary arm is made a few less, reduce some of the strength, maybe it's okay. ”

Meng Huan Chilong shook his head, at the cost of reducing power, he was really a little reluctant, so he denied this plan first.

He is not very familiar with the bamboo bow, in the village, few people use the bamboo bow, although the bamboo bow has good elasticity and can make the arrow shoot far, but it is not easy to control, the accuracy is poor, the strength is naturally poor, and the force is too strong will be broken. Therefore, most hunters are still willing to choose a wooden bow or a horn bow, relying entirely on the power of the bowstring to shoot distance and power.

He thought for a while and said, "Mr. Tian, can you compromise and make a bow back with the wood with the best strength and elasticity, and then wrap the bamboo pieces with the best elasticity on the outside, so that the elasticity and hardness are there? ”

Tian Zhikun thought for a moment and said, "This method is good, I think it's okay." Just now I heard that the adults were thinking about it casually on the city wall, and they came up with a method of collective attack by spirit witches, and it was indeed a genius! Wait a minute, my lord, I still have a few things to ask you about. Mr. Fang, come, there may be a way for this strong crossbow bow, you can make it and try it first. "He's changed his name to an adult this time.

An old man came running in response, Tian Zhikun explained a few words, and walked over with a smile. "My lord, there is still a problem with the strong crossbow, because the bowstring is powerful, it is very troublesome to pull the bow on the crossbow every time, and several people have to work together, the fixed metal strong crossbow is okay to say, but the movable strong crossbow cannot be operated, what do you think?"

Emotional Tian Zhikun regarded him as a person who specialized in ideas, so he asked him to help improve the strong crossbow.

He didn't feel this way, but thought quietly for a while, and said, "You wait, I think there's a better way to hunch your back." ”

He circled around the workshop and suddenly stopped: "Don't use wood to make a bow, most wood is cut down, and the elasticity will weaken when it dries." Directly use amethyst bamboo to make a bowed back, and wrap an elastic and strong metal layer on the outside to prevent amethyst bamboo from cracking. It's just that I don't know much about metal, and I don't know that metal is cheap, and has good elasticity and strength. ”

Tian Zhikun also thought for a while, and laughed: "You don't know, I know! The metal crossbow is made of black ball soft iron, and at most some white crystal iron is used in it to increase its strength. ”

Tian Zhikun is a resolute person, and immediately called Mr. Fang again and told him about the matter, and Mr. Fang said: "Why didn't we think of it, or try both methods, it makes sense." ”

Tian Zhikun also smiled and nodded, and asked Mr. Fang to do it. Because no matter how you conceive of it, you can only know whether an item is good or bad when it is made and used.

After Meng Huan Chilong saw that he had made the arrangement, he asked, "Mr. Tian, what did you just say? Why can't I remember?"

Tian Zhikun was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that you are a very focused person, so everything has to be scrutinized repeatedly to come up with good ideas, yes, I'll tell you again." He repeated what he had just said.
