Chapter 172: Finally there is a brother who can't
"Fortunately, when the house was being built, there was a lot of qualified wood and other materials left."
Wang Qiang put a bundle of arrows into an arrow bag on the side, hung it on a special wooden frame on the side, and let out a long breath.
The rain has been going on for three days, and the water level of the Chajiang River has risen by at least one meter.
In the past three days, he has been a little idle, and he has begun to build five sets of horse harness and five sets of bows and arrows and arrow targets.
This is not difficult for him, who has the skills of the best carpenters on the planet.
The only difficulty is the limitation of materials.
Fortunately, because there are many hundred-year-old trees on Dacha Mountain, there is no shortage of wood with good materials.
In the past six months, he has cut down some timber several times in a row, and returned home to air dry and smoke it so that it can be used at any time, and there are still a lot of qualified dry timber left.
In addition, in the past six months, he has often gone into the city to purchase, all kinds of useful things, as long as they look pleasing to the eye and feel that they will be useful in the future, he also buys some home.
Therefore, it is still feasible to gather the materials you need.
In order not to disturb his brother's work, this huge utility room on the first floor temporarily became Wang Qiang's special work room.
With an unrivalled skill as a carpenter, he did his best to make the best of his ability, and it took him three days to build five sets of exquisite harnesses, five sets of bows, arrows, and targets.
The style of the bow and arrow, he did not choose the so-called classic bows and arrows of foreign countries, he chose the riding bow of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Seriously, in the short history of foreign countries, poor hands-on ability, and the so-called classic famous bows are mostly boasted by some foreign minions who worship foreigners.
Whether it is the Qin bow of the Great Qin Dynasty, the Han bow of the Han Dynasty, or the Tang bow of the Tang Dynasty, its exquisite and practical degree is not comparable to the so-called classic famous bow of those foreign devils.
Wang Qiang, who has the inheritance of top carpenter skills throughout the ages, is extremely disdainful of those ancient histories that have been changed beyond recognition.
Among them, the riding bow of the Han Dynasty is the most classic and practical cavalry bow and arrow.
A Han is a Wuhu, but it is not just talking, but a real history.
In the Han Dynasty at that time, cavalry had actually developed to its peak.
Even in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty had collapsed, and after the chaos of the Three Kingdoms, the population had plummeted from 60 or 70 million to 7 million at the time of the Three Kingdoms.
It is completely conceivable that the Han Dynasty at its peak at that time was so prestigious!
That is, the later Sima family, only knew that they were greedy for pleasure, fought for power and profit, and castrated the blood of the people, so that the most tragic tragedy of Wuhu Chaohua occurred.
The five riding bows built by Wang Qiang look ancient and elegant, but the lethality is not low.
Although the range is not as good as that of a foot bow, it has many advantages such as fast rate of fire, stable arrow path, and easy operation.
The same is true for the five sets of horse harnesses, he chose to be the cavalry harness of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also the pinnacle of the cavalry harness.
It took three days to create these things, and Wang Qiang still felt quite a sense of accomplishment.
"Xiaoyu! Xiaoling! ……”
He walked to the bottom of the spiral wooden staircase leading from the first floor to the second floor, looked up and shouted, "I've made the harness and the bow and arrows!" Come down and take them to the third floor!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a brisk running sound from the staircase upstairs, and several girls appeared one after another.
"Rubbing ......"
A few little girls had been waiting for a long time, they connected in a string and ran down the first floor with a smoke.
"Wow! These harnesses and bows and arrows, so good-looking? Also on tung oil? ”
"I've never seen such beautiful harnesses and bows and arrows!"
"Brother Cuong, hurry up and go to the balcony on the third floor, let's practice archery together!"
"Uh-huh, learn how to shoot arrows first, and when the rain stops, let's go learn real archery on horseback!" ……
A few little girls, when they saw the harnesses and bows and arrows placed on the special wooden frame, their eyes were full of light, and they were shouting with joy.
However, they were blindsided.
They thought that Wang Qiang used tung oil soaking and other treatment and protection techniques on these horse harnesses and bows and arrows, but in fact, Wang Qiang completely copied the magical paint on the wood of the wind and rain building.
This is also the first time that this miraculous paint has been used on wooden utensils since it was reintroduced.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if these harnesses and bows and arrows are thrown directly into the water and soaked for ten days and a half now, there will be no adverse effects!
Yesterday, after Wang Qiang copied this incomparably magical paint, he had already tried it, and he was shocked for a long time on the spot.
He really couldn't understand why so many magical skills in ancient times had all been lost to this day?
As far as he saw, the wind and rain building was definitely not something that modern science could copy.
Taking advantage of the current rainy season, it is difficult to go out to do things, and he also plans to gradually use this magical paint to protect all kinds of wooden furniture at home, including doors and windows.
In the future, there is no need to worry about the damage caused by moisture and weathering of these wooden furniture.
"Xiaoyu! Xiaoling ......, you have to be careful, those arrows are very sharp, you must be careful, don't hurt your hands. ”
Seeing these girls, each holding a set of bows and arrows and an arrow bag, they were about to walk towards the rotating wooden ladder and go upstairs, and hurriedly admonished.
"You remember, when you shoot arrows, you must be attentive, and you must not be negligent, if you shoot someone, then something will happen!"
Learning archery is not only a technical activity, but also a relatively dangerous sports activity, and it is absolutely forbidden to desert during archery, lest it lead to tragedy.
"Okay, brother, I remember."
"We'll be careful, let's take turns to learn!"
"Brother Ah Qiang, you can also go and learn archery with us, everyone has some suggestions, maybe you can quickly master the archery method!" ……
These girls, all of them are Bingxue smart, and they have a strong learning ability, and they all put away their smiles when they heard the words, and replied with a solemn face.
"Well, that's fine."
Everyone has just begun to learn archery, of course Wang Qiang will not be relieved, and he will definitely go with him.
Otherwise, if you cause an accident, you really want to cry without tears.
Even if he has a cheating device like a treasure gourd, if he is injured, he can't be rescued in time.
After a while, Wang Qiang took the four little girls to the balcony on the third floor.
He first lined up the five large arrow targets he was carrying on one side of the balcony, like a wall, separating the huge balcony from it.
There's no way to do this, these little girls, including themselves, are all novices!
God knows if everyone has just started to learn archery in ignorance, where will the arrow go?
Or make a super large arrow target like a wall, first make sure that the arrows shot can be inserted into the arrow target!
Yes, even if Wang Qiang has a golden finger, he can't shoot arrows, and he has never shot arrows in two lives.
However, with the skill of "advanced throwing mastery", the ability to learn archery is estimated to be 100 million points stronger than ordinary people.
But even their brothers and sisters, including Chen Lin's girl, have a super ability to learn, and they have to have a process to learn, right?
What's more, without a teacher to teach, it is still very difficult to explore on your own.
"Brother, how can you put an arrow target like you?"
"Wow! Brother, in this way, as long as I shoot the arrow, won't I be able to hit every shot? ”
"Humph! Still a hundred shots? Didn't you think you'd shoot an arrow into the sky? ”
"Oh, maybe it will shoot to the ground, it's possible!"
"Giggle......
A few little girls, seeing that Wang Qiang actually put out an arrow target comparable to a wall, they immediately joked and said everything.
"Uh......"
Wang Qiang's old face was slightly red when he heard this, and he was speechless.
Well, who has always made himself so awesome, and now that it's his turn to shoot, he's become a complete layman?
Fortunately, he was extremely thick-skinned, and he looked extremely determined, and he didn't take a few girls' jokes to heart.
"Let's put that wrench on first, it's specially designed to protect your fingers from being cut by the bowstring."
He took a pair of bows and arrows in a serious manner, and asked everyone to bring a special wrench for archery, and the four siblings took turns to start the first archery practice in their lives.
