Li Yiheng helped Qingping back to the ground, arranged Qingping, returned to his room, immediately took out paper and pen from the counter drawer, and drew a model model of the crossbow, similar crossbow machines are very common in Cape City, but there are no nine arrows fired at a time, fortunately, Li Yiheng and the house before to learn the production of machinery, so Li Yiheng kept thinking, constantly modifying, until Qingping knocked on the door and called Li Yiheng to have breakfast, Li Yiheng realized that it had been a night, but he was still full of energy, as if he had found the enthusiasm to work with the house to transform the mechanical car。 Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Breakfast is Qingping's stewed broth, just some dry bread, Li Yiheng and Xiao Ji gobbled up, burping with satisfaction, Qingping looked at Li Yiheng and Xiao Ji can eat so happily, but also very satisfied with their craftsmanship, proudly said to Li Yiheng: "I still show a hand, when the dealer harvest, I can make more delicious food to entertain you." ”

Li Yiheng rubbed his stomach, got up and went back to the house to take out the drawings that had been designed, spread them on the dining table, and prepared to explain the principle of the catapult he designed to Qingping, Qingping looked at the drawings intently, waiting for Li Yiheng to speak.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Qingping motioned for Li Yiheng to hide the drawings, and Li Yiheng immediately rolled up the drawings and put them in the bedroom drawer.

Qingping opened the door, and there were two Qing soldiers standing at the door, and said to Qingping respectfully: "The patriarch asks the captain to go to the meeting, be sure to bring the hero, please leave immediately." ”

Qingping replied: "I know, you go back first, I'll go now." ”

The two soldiers spread their wings and flew away, Qingping closed the door, and Li Yiheng stepped forward and asked Qingping: "You are still the captain, the position is not small." ”

Qingping waved his hand and said modestly: "It's just the captain of the scout, the patriarch was affectionate just now, the hero please come with me." ”

Li Yiheng lifted his pants and said, "It's okay, I also want to see what the so-called patriarch looks like, but how can I go, such a big place can't run me to death." ”

"It's okay, I'll just fly with me. Qingping said, spreading his wings and flapping them a few times.

Looking at Qingping's shorter height than himself and the tourniquet on his body, Li Yiheng smiled bitterly: "Come on, your injury is not healed yet, besides, you are not as tall as me, how can you take me to fly?"

Qingping smiled and unwrapped the tourniquet and stretched his muscles: "The herbs I rubbed yesterday are very smart, and the injury will be healed overnight, and don't look at me as small as you, but I have a lot of strength, it's no problem for me to fly with two of you, don't forget, I'm the big one among the Qing people." ”

Li Yiheng expressed his disbelief, Qingping waved his wings and flew into the air, and then the frequency of the wings vibrated faster and faster, Qingping's strong hands grabbed the clothes on Li Yiheng's shoulders, and flew towards the center of the city.

Soon they came to a large house in the center of the Qing tribe, this is Qingliang's residence, Li Yiheng looked down from the air, only to see that the house was built on a huge branch, the size of a football field, but although the house was large, it was very old, and there was no sense of luxury.

Qingping landed in front of the house, and the Qing soldiers at the door saw Li Yiheng, and unconsciously turned their heads and ears, revealing admiration.

Qingping walked to the door and said to the soldiers guarding it, "Reconnaissance Captain Qingping and the hero are here to meet." ”

The guards opened the door of the temple, Qingping and Li Yiheng walked in, and then the door closed again. After walking through a section of the porch, he came to the meeting hall of the patriarch, both sides of the conference hall were already filled with elderly Qing clan elders, Li Yiheng looked at their wrinkled old faces and somewhat curled wings, wondering if they could still fly.

Sitting in the middle of the hall is the patriarch, who looks middle-aged, but has a beard, Qingping bowed and saluted, Li Yiheng also saluted according to Qingping's movements, and the patriarch pointed to the two vacant seats next to him and said to Qingping: "You guys take a seat first." ”

Qingping got up and thanked the patriarch, Li Yiheng did the same, and then sat on the chair next to Qingping.

The patriarch stroked his beard and asked Li Yiheng: "I am very pleased that the hero has saved my people, and I will reward the hero with a piece of gold cake, and I hope the hero will accept it." ”

After speaking, a Qing maid held a wooden plate, and there was a piece of gold cake on the plate, the color was very dull, Li Yiheng looked at the luster and knew that it was not pure gold, and thought that the Qing people lived at the bottom, and this gold cake was afraid that it was rare, so he saluted again: "Thank you for the patriarch's reward, but I can't accept it, and I hope the patriarch will take it back." ”

"Why do heroes want to resign, is it because they don't have enough rewards?"

Li Yiheng hurriedly explained: "The patriarch misunderstood, I really don't deserve to be called a hero, and I just arrived here, I can't be rewarded so heavily, and I ask the patriarch to understand." ”

"Since the hero has said so, I will no longer force it, and if the hero has any demands, just put it forward,

I will be satisfied. The patriarch ordered the maid to stand down and asked Li Yiheng.

"Patriarch Xie understands, I don't have any requests, I just happened to pass by here, and I am not familiar with this place. Li Yiheng replied modestly.

The patriarch looked at Li Yiheng with satisfaction and nodded incessantly.

The patriarch continued to ask Li Yiheng: "Where do you come from?"

"Hui patriarch, my name is Li Yiheng, and I was brought here by a waterspout. ”

The patriarch didn't know what the waterspout was in Li Yiheng's mouth, but he was embarrassed to ask, the other elders sitting there couldn't sit still, and began to talk in a whisper, the patriarch pretended to cough, the hall immediately quieted down, and the patriarch turned to Qingping: "Qingping, where is the invention of your iron crossbow, this time and Luo Niu's attack was repelled by the hero, next time I want to see the iron crossbow used on the battlefield." ”

Qingping heard the patriarch mention the iron crossbow, and became nervous: "Patriarch Hui, the production of the iron crossbow has reached the final step, and now there are heroes to help design it, and it will soon be used on the battlefield." ”

After Qingping finished speaking, beads of sweat were already oozing from his forehead, and he lowered his head and waited for the patriarch's instructions.

Li Yiheng saw that the atmosphere of the scene was a little cramped, so he stepped forward to whirl: "Patriarch, I have seen Captain Qingping's iron crossbow, and Captain Qingping has already made the iron crossbow, I want to help improve the iron crossbow, and I implore the patriarch to agree." ”

The patriarch looked at Qingping seriously, and then looked at Li Yiheng, knowing that Qingping was in trouble in the development of the iron crossbow, but Li Yiheng was an outsider, maybe he could really help improve the iron crossbow, so he asked Li Yiheng: "Since the hero can improve the iron crossbow, please also ask the hero to do his best to assist Qingping, if you need any materials, you can directly ask me." ”

"Patriarch Xie, but I have a question", Li Yiheng replied, "I heard Qingping say that since the Qing people have been treated unfairly, why don't they resist and take back their own territory?"

Qingping was dumbfounded at the moment, he never expected Li Yiheng to dare to ask such a naked question in front of the patriarch, which clearly contained contempt, so Qingping secretly pulled the corner of Li Yiheng's clothes and asked Li Yiheng to keep his mouth shut.

The elders present were also confused, and began to accuse Li Yiheng:

"I have to make inches, I don't know the general situation. ”

"Speak out!"

"These things are not for you to interfere with. ”

Patriarch Qingliang listened to the elders' accusations against Li Yiheng, and then looked at Li Yiheng, who was indifferent to these accusations, and laughed: "The hero's views are really different, and I can't hide it, with our current strength is not enough to confront other races, I don't know what the hero's opinion is?"

The ball was kicked back to Li Yiheng, Li Yiheng realized that the patriarch was also embarrassed by himself, and also realized his recklessness, and hurriedly apologized: "On a whim just now, I offended the patriarch, I don't know much about the military, I just said nonsense, I hope the patriarch will forgive me." ”

The patriarch said unhurriedly: "Heroes have blood, understandable, but if the hero has a heart, I implore the hero to stay, hoping to help Qingping make an iron crossbow against the invading Heluo herd, we will always remember the hero's kindness." ”

After the patriarch finished speaking, he got up and bowed to Li Yiheng, and the elders on both sides also changed their previous attitudes and greeted Li Yiheng, which made Li Yiheng feel like a double heaven of ice and fire, and hurriedly replied to the patriarch: "I will definitely work hard to assist Qingping in making an iron crossbow and destroying the Heluo herd." ”

Qingping and Li Yiheng walked out of the palace gate, the two of them breathed a long sigh of relief, Qingping patted Li Yiheng's shoulder and said, "I was scared to death just now, you really dare to say anything." ”

"I was also unintentional, seeing that your people were suffering here, so I casually mentioned it to the patriarch, who knew that there was such a large amount of information contained in it. ”

The patriarch in the hall looked at the elders seated and said, "We are used to surviving here, we have lost our ambition and fighting spirit, if it is not for the outsiders to mention it today, we will bear the shame and live in peace, from now on, recruit soldiers, train the army, and wait for the opportunity to counterattack the other races." ”

The elders heard the patriarch's bold words, and their cloudy eyes became sharp because of the ambition to regain, the elders present had all shed blood and sweat in the war with other races, but the hero was in the twilight, and now after the patriarch's impassioned encouragement, he instantly came to life, and an elder patted the table: "It seems that my old decay still has a place to play." ”

Another elder sneered and said, "Come on, I don't know who said that outsider 'has to make inches' just now......"

The patriarch looked at the impassioned appearance of the elders seated, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth that was not easy to detect.
