One sunny afternoon, Wang Xiaolai sat on a recliner in the courtyard, fiddling with a man-high repeater in front of him.

Regarding the improved repeater, Wang Xiaolai's positioning of it is more inclined to defense, as a loyal 354 fan, Wang Xiaolai designed the repeater to look like a wing room in the game.

This huge crossbow is designed to be used as a defensive weapon, and since it is a defensive weapon, the range, naturally, cannot be as far as the first-generation repeater, only eighty paces away.

According to the preliminary judgment, Wang Xiaolai felt that the effective range of his improved repeater would be about 300 to 500 steps, and if he attacked from a high down, the distance would be even longer.

After all, the materials used in his improved repeater are all the same as Sui Yang's current bed crossbow with the longest range.

Of course, like the first generation of continuous dozens of arrows, like automatic weapons, Wang Xiaolai has abandoned, he combined the common advantages of the crossbow and the repeater, and changed the second-generation repeater to one shot is twenty arrows.

However, instead of the dense range of a shotgun like a crossbow, it has become a covering attack that spreads outward in a row.

This method of attack was undoubtedly fatal for Sui Yang, who was still in the era of cold weapon warfare.

It's just that, although everything is planned to be very good, but it is really to be done, but it is not so easy, no, it takes five days, Wang Xiaolai has only just made the initial mold, and if you want to really play a role, you need to be more streamlined.

Glancing at the second-generation repeater mold of how to wind continuously, Wang Xiaolai stopped his movements and muttered to himself in confusion: "If this fucking problem is not solved, it is still called a fart repeater." ”

As he spoke, he pulled out a crossbow arrow that was a meter and a half long and short, more similar to a wooden gun, and knocked it back and forth on the ground, just like the beat used to hit the lotus flower when a beggar asked for food on the street.

Just as he was thinking to himself, he heard the noise of people outside, and the noise was so loud that his brain couldn't be quiet at all, and there was a mess of chaos.

"Red incense, red incense."

Wang Xiaolai shouted.

Hongxiang, who was preparing snacks and pastries for Wang Xiaolai in the back kitchen, walked out and asked suspiciously, "Childe, what's wrong?" ”

Wang Xiaolai pointed to the outside of the courtyard with his chin and said, "What's going on outside in the past two days, the street has been noisy for several days." ”

Hongxiang said, "Childe, you don't know yet." ”

"Don't know what?" Wang Xiaolai was puzzled.

Hongxiang said with a smile: "Two days ago, Tongguan sent a battle report, saying that Lu Houye won a complete victory, annihilated more than 47,000 enemies, captured the enemy's first Han King and Zhao Wang, and the siege of Tongguan has been resolved. ”

Hearing this, Wang Xiaolai stood up suddenly: "When did it happen?" ”

Hongxiang said: "As far as the battle report sent two days ago said, Your Majesty has asked the scholars of the Hanlin Academy to copy the paper with the name of it." ”

Wang Xiaolai pursed his lips and said, "Newspaper." ”

Hongxiang slapped his palm: "Yes, it's the newspaper, now this news has spread all over Daxing City, everyone knows the news of Lu Houye's victory, and you don't know it." ”

Wang Xiaolai pursed his lips: "And then?" ”

Hongxiang smiled and said: "Now there are many admirers of Marquis Lu in the city, and they spontaneously organized themselves and donated their property to the army to support the front line." ”

Wang Xiaolai looked at Hongxiang with a smile: "What about you, have you donated?" ”

Hongxiang blushed when she heard this, lowered her head and said, "No, no." ”

Wang Xiaolai sighed: "Why, everyone participated, why didn't you go, I remember, you are also an admirer of Lu Houye." ”

Hongxiang looked up with a smile and said, "My silver is all saved for the son." ”

Wang Xiaolai: "···"

Reaching out to hold Hongxiang's hand, Wang Xiaolai said earnestly: "Sister, son, I am not short of silver, the money given to you every month, you can keep it yourself, look at you, how many times have I told you, let you buy a beautiful hairpin to use, you see, you still use this wood carving." ”

Hongxiang shook her head and covered her head, for fear that Wang Xiaolai would pick it up: "This is left to me by my mother, and I will never change it." ”

Wang Xiaolai was stunned when he heard this, and then said, "Okay." ”

Hongxiang cautiously looked at Wang Xiaolai: "Actually, son, Sister Shuangyu bought a lot of hairpins with me, but I'm useless." ”

Wang Xiaolai smiled and waved his hand: "I didn't see it, Shuangyu feels sorry for you, by the way, I forgot to say, is there any news from Phoenix Mountain in Qingzhou?" ”

Hongxiang asked, "Childe, are you talking about the divine doctor Luan Chengping?" ”

Wang Xiaolai nodded.

Hongxiang shook her head and said, "This is not yet." ”

Wang Xiaolai frowned: "What's the matter with this Luan Chengping, didn't he say that if I brought him back the seeds of the heart lotus, he would help me unconditionally, and now he is unwilling to let him save someone." ”

Hongxiang said: "Childe, is it true that Brother Iron Hammer got lost halfway and didn't find Phoenix Mountain?" ”

When Hongxiang said this, Wang Xiaolai was stunned at the time: "Yes, it shouldn't be, it's not like I haven't been to the hammer." ”

Hongxiang: "··· Childe, there is actually a sentence that I have always wanted to say to you. ”

Wang Xiaolai said, "Say." ”

"Childe, you can't be angry with Your Majesty, besides, you are not really angry, otherwise, why do you let Brother Iron Hammer go to Phoenix Mountain in Qingzhou to find the divine doctor Luan Chengping, otherwise, you can sell it well and make it clear to Your Majesty."

Wang Xiaolai smiled: "Say a fart, don't say it, I don't want to go there now, I just want to stay in this courtyard by myself." ”

Hongxiang said in the tone of a person who came over: "Childe, you are not afraid that Your Majesty will be really angry." ”

"She's angry about me, and I didn't make her angry, who can blame her for not listening to me if she doesn't listen to me?" Wang Xiaolai said toughly.

Hongxiang: "Then what are you bothering Brother Hammer to do?" ”

Wang Xiaolai sighed: "I went to find Luan Chengping, it was completely for the sake of Narcissus's face, no matter what I said, I have a little friendship with Narcissus, I can't watch her die of poison, okay sister, pour me a cup of tea, I have to hurry up and study this crossbow, go." ”

"Oh."

Looking at Wang Xiaolai, who was pretending to be tough, Hongxiang couldn't do anything, so she turned around and left.

After she left, Wang Xiaolai stayed in place for a long time, looking at the crossbow that had been ready, his anger gradually rose, and then he grabbed the axe on the ground and chopped it in half.

Hongxiang, who walked to the back kitchen, heard the movement and turned around, and when he saw this situation, he also shook his head and was speechless, in the past five days, almost every day Wang Xiaolai had to smash the mold he had made, no, even Hongxiang was used to this.

···

"Guys, here we go down again." At those assassins, Feng Qingyun laughed.

Although his smile was full of peach blossoms, the tone of the smile was indescribably cold.

So much so that those assassins, when they heard Feng Qingyun's laughter, couldn't help but snort.

Feng Qingyun turned around and beckoned to Wei Qianliu, who commanded his subordinates to push up a modified prisoner cart, which was filled with sharp wooden wedges, leaving only a place for one person in the space.

Feng Qingyun walked over, looked back and forth at those assassins, and finally, with a little double knife with his chin, he said, "It's him." ”

When the pawns heard this, they stepped forward one after another, took off the shackles of the double knifeman, and arrested him and sent him to the prisoner car.

Because of those wooden wedges, the double knifeman could only stay in the prisoner car in a half-squatting form, and the slightest movement would be pierced by the wooden wedges.

And the wooden wedge soaked in salt water, as long as it pierced the skin, it was a hot pain, so that the pair of swordsmen could only support their bodies and did not dare to relax.

It was okay for a while, but after a long time, the pair of swordsmen couldn't hold on, and wanted to relax and squat down for half a minute, but they were stabbed by a wooden wedge, and it was a thrill at that time.

Feng Qingyun was still standing outside the prisoner cart and looked at the double knife man with a smile: "This prisoner car, I call him a knife prison, I heard, you are also a knife?" I don't know, how long can you, a master, survive in front of the knife prison? ”

The double swordsman gritted his teeth and didn't speak, and the three of the two gunmen who were all tortured and unconscious wanted to scold, but they were already unconscious.

"If you are smarter, you will cooperate with you to explain everything, don't learn from your righteous brothers, just hard-mouthed, in the end, it is still yourself who suffers, you, understand?"
