Chapter 43 Shipbuilding

The location we are in resembles a stone platform with vague chisel marks from the remodeling, which should have been a masterpiece from a long time ago. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Below the info platform is the boiling river, the water is panting, rolling up a lot of sediment at the bottom of the river, so the water looks yellow.

There are a lot of huge stones on the left and right sides of the platform, some of which are clinging to the cliffs on both sides, and some of which are scattered directly on the ground, which should be caused by the collapse of some stone walls because of too much time.

Qin Kunlun looked left and right a few times, frowned, and asked Sankera, "Where is the boat used to cross the river?" ā€

Sankra looked at his surroundings and thought for a moment, then went to inspect the cliffs on both sides of the platform, as well as the huge rocks scattered on the ground, as if looking for something.

After searching for a while, Sankra made a discovery, which was behind a boulder, and we saw a copper chain loop the thickness of a child's arm, on which a layer of green rust had appeared. The copper chain leads to the stone wall next to it, and there is a small hole underneath, and the other end of the copper chain is in the hole.

Sankra was a little excited, grabbed the iron chain and pulled it out, not moving at all, so he said to Qin Kunlun: "Come and help a few people, pull out the copper chain inside the stone wall." ā€

The appearance of the copper chain pull ring made Qin Kunlun's previous suspicion suddenly dissipate, revealing a little expectation, and he immediately called four special police officers to help. Including Sancora, there were five people in total, and they held the copper chain tightly in their hands, and in Sankra's greeting, all five people used force in their hands at the same time, pulling the copper chain outward.

While we were waiting, the other end of the copper chain began to be pulled out of the mountain wall one by one, and after a few minutes, the copper chain was pulled out of a length of more than 20 meters, and at this time, the copper chain in Sankla's hand was stretched straight and straight, and it was obvious that the length of the copper chain had reached its end.

See so. Qin Kunlun asked a little impatiently: "What is this copper chain, it can't be dragged now, what should I do?" ā€

Sankra replied unhurriedly: "This is a copper chain, and now we don't have to do anything." Just wait, but don't let go, or the copper chains that were pulled out will retract into the stone wall. ā€

We didn't know what kind of medicine Sankla was selling in the gourd, so we could only wait patiently, about a minute later. There was a "click" sound from the copper chain, and the source came from the strange stone wall.

After a few seconds, there was a "Bang Dong!" from the stone wall. Before we could understand what was going on, the stone wall where the copper chain was hidden trembled violently, and began to sink down, and let out a "Boom!" The sound came.

In our astonishment, the stone wall sank into the ground with an area about a door frame, revealing a swarthy hole, which turned out to be a secret door.

Sankla greeted. Let the special police officers wrap the copper chain they pulled out around a boulder, and then they said to us: "There is a stone room inside, and the tools of the ferry are all in it, go in and have a look!" ā€

This stone chamber is very large, about 400 square meters, and the height is more than ten meters, it is an irregular square stone chamber, and there are traces of chisel use on the cliffs on both sides, which are deliberately chiseled out by someone.

There were also two stone beasts in the stone chamber, guarding the door when we entered. One was a giant stone turtle, the other was a lion-like monster, and it was impossible to tell what kind of animal it was. In addition to this, in the center of the stone chamber. There is a huge stone platform there, with an area of about one hundred square meters and a height of more than one meter.

On the stone platform, there are many woods neatly arranged, some strip-shaped and some circular, with dozens of regularities. On one side there is a thick, canvas-like gray fabric.

Sankra pointed to the things on the platform and said to us: "Those are the timber for shipbuilding, I have the drawings and tools here, let's assemble them as soon as possible!" ā€

We were all stunned for a moment, especially Qin Kunlun, who glanced at Sankra strangely, and said suspiciously: "If we want to build our own ship, we will use these woods?" ā€

Sankra pointed to something similar to cloth next to him and said, "Those woods are the main body of the ship, these fish skins are the focus, you must remember that after the ship is assembled, these fish skins must be wrapped around the hull, and remember not to break them." ā€

"Fish skin?" We were amazed, and we never thought that those things that looked like cloth would be fish skins, so thick that how many fish skins must be?

Seeing our incredulous expressions, Sankla walked to the platform, grabbed the layer of fish skin and shook it, and a huge fish skin appeared in front of us, at least five meters wide and long.

I originally thought that such a large piece of fish skin must be connected by many fish skins, but when I looked closely, I was immediately stunned, because I found that there was no trace of connection on this huge fish skin, that is, this huge fish skin, in fact, was just the skin of a fish.

With such a big piece of skin, how big should this fish be?

While I was amazed, I carefully touched the fish skin, and found that it was not only very thick, but also very strong, and I tore it vigorously with my hands, but it did not move at all, which was completely different from what I imagined.

Sankra was amazed at how firm the fish skin was, so he said with some pride: "These fish skins have been soaked in a special potion, and they still maintain their toughness after drying, but they are not ordinary firm, and you have to use a knife to cut them." There are also those wooden strips, all of which are camphor wood, which is very strong and durable, and is the best material for ancient shipbuilding. ā€

Qin Kunlun picked up a piece of wood on the platform and looked at it, and asked Sankra, "These things were brought by your people?" ā€

Sankra nodded and said, "As for these woods, it has been hundreds of years since they were obtained, that is, hundreds of years ago, it was easy to get these woods, and now it is not easy to get seven or eight." As for the skins, they were all made from local sources, remember what I told you about the huge fish, yes, these skins are from the ferocious fish in the dark river. ā€

Biaozi opened his mouth and said in disbelief: "What are you talking about? Is there such a big fish in the river? My grandma, such a big fish, it is estimated that it can swallow a living person in one bite, how can this line of work? ā€

Sankra glanced at Qin Kunlun and said coldly, "Otherwise, what do you think?" Didn't I say that there are three major dangers to obtain holy water, the first danger is those snowmen, and the huge fish hidden in the dark river is the second danger, and as for the third danger, when you get to the place, you will naturally know. ā€

Qin Kunlun just frowned, and said loudly: "Take out the drawings and tools, let's hurry up and build a ship." ā€

The camphor wood on the platform had actually been worked, and once assembled, it was a small wooden boat two meters wide and four meters long, so there were no other tools that Sankla had brought with him, just some rivets for fixing.

After taking out the drawings and a small bag of rivets, Sankra no longer paid attention to Qin Kunlun, but carefully looked at the stone room, as for me and Biaozi and others, they did not join the shipbuilding operation, but followed Sankra and wandered around the stone room.

Qin Kunlun didn't expect us people to help, so he called those special police, pondered there with the drawings, and personally commanded the assembly matters, with Tan Jia assisting on the side.

Since we met, Tan Jia has not said more than half a word to us, not even looking at us too much, acting as if she is a stranger, which makes me feel a little inappropriate in my heart.

When we walked to the back of the platform and got out of Qin Kunlun's sight, Sankra whispered to us: "There is something wrong with Tan Jia, she has been too quiet along the way, this is not like her character, is there something wrong with it?" ā€

Biaozi said without liver and lungs: "What can this little girl do with his high-ranking father?" Let's not worry about it, she has never been with us all the way, her affairs, we don't care about the best, let's think about it, this time, how to get rid of Qin Kunlun's demon. (To be continued.) )
