Chapter 61: Wearing a friend appears in the second watch
Even though Qiao Wei said that this Karakuri repeater was far from the effect she wanted, Sun Yi had already shown a salivating desire for this repeater.
Qiao Wei thought for a while, then handed the bow and crossbow to Sun Yi, "Why don't you try it?" ”
She also wants to hear Sun Yi's experience of using it, and maybe she can get some inspiration to further improve.
Sun Yi followed Qiao Wei's instructions, aimed at the bullseye with the crosshair, and then pulled the trigger, this time the arrows were all on the grass target, and only one arrow fell off.
Qiao Wei went to check the situation of the arrows on the grass target, and found that this time the arrow was embedded in the grass target deeper.
Qiao Wei asked Youye to collect all the arrows again, load them into the Karakuri repeater, and let Sun Yi try a few more times.
Sun Yi asked curiously while learning Qiao Wei's movements to load the arrows into the arrow box, "Where did you find this bow and crossbow, it's so wonderful." ”
Bows and crossbows first appeared and were used on the battlefield from the Spring and Autumn Period to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, which are basically divided into three categories. But there has never been a crossbow that could fire several arrows in bursts.
Not only can it be fired in bursts, but it can also be adjusted to a single shot.
Don't look like it's just a little technical improvement, it was an invention that broke down technical barriers in that era.
When You Ye heard Sun Yi's question, she told him very proudly, "This is made by our lady herself, not from elsewhere." ”
When Sun Yi heard this, his eyes were as round as copper bells, "Sister-in-law, you ......"
He looked Qiao Wei up and down, looking incredulous, "Sister-in-law, isn't she making fun of me." ”
This sister-in-law looks weak, her demeanor is dignified and self-controlled, and she doesn't look like a person who will be contaminated with craftsman's things.
If he said that he burned incense, stroked the piano, painted and embroidered, he could believe more.
Qiao Wei was amused by his surprised reaction, and was about to say something, but Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Sun Quan walking in from outside with a solemn expression and beckoning to her, "Da Qiao! ”
Qiao Wei turned his head to Sun Yi and said half-seriously, half-jokingly, "This bow and crossbow will be borrowed from you for fun first, and I will go to you to get it later, don't let a few younger brothers and sisters see it, I only have such a handle." ”
After that, he chased after Sun Quan's back.
Sun Quan and Zhu Zhi have been trying to find out about Xu Gong for the past few days, and they really found that there was a guest in Xu Gong's family, and he left without saying goodbye on the day of Xu Gong's death.
If the main family is in danger, if the doorman wants to leave, he will also say goodbye to the main family, so it is not rude.
Xu Gong's disciples also wanted to leave, but now that the lord's family is in mourning, it is immoral to resign at this time, and they are all waiting for the funeral to end, and then talk about leaving.
But this guest is the only one who is very strange.
Zhu Zhi had already sent someone to find the traces of this doorman, and Sun Quan had people secretly probe Xu Gong's body and found something wrong.
In Xu Gong's mouth, he held a very small copper coin, not even the size of a thumb cover. The edge of the copper coin was as sharp as a knife blade, and the wound in Xu Gong's mouth was almost too shallow to be seen.
And in one of the flower pots of the Xu family, a very slender needle was also found.
Qiao Wei asked cautiously, "Can I take a look at the copper coin and needle?" ”
When she listened to Sun Quan's description, she felt that this thing was very familiar.
"Of course." Sun Quan took out a handkerchief from his arms and placed it on the case, with the peacock feather, Sun Quan felt that maybe Qiao Wei could see something, and it was unknown.
Qiao Wei stretched out his hand to get it, but was stopped by Sun Quan, "This thing is very strange, and it is very strange." When Jun Li took it, he had a big cut on his hand. And if the needle is pricked, it will also cause pain in the hand. ”
This sounds more familiar.
Qiao Wei cautiously opened the veil, revealing the so-called copper coins and long needles.
Dizzy, isn't this the needle on the money dart and the syringe!
Qiao Wei said to Sun Quan Science, "This thing is called a money dart, which is generally a sharp edge around the coin, and it is also a kind of hidden weapon. And this is a needle, which is used to ...... In short, it is also a kind of hidden weapon. ”
Qiao Wei had a basic judgment that Xu Gong should have been forced to hang himself.
This money dart is supposed to have been punched into Xu Gong's mouth by surprise, so that he could not make a sound.
In ancient times, when dignitaries were buried, they would generally press a copper coin or jade in their mouths.
If it is self-committed, it will also take the initiative to contain a piece, indicating that it means to take the initiative to end one's life. Even the person who helps the burial will examine the whole body, but not too much of what is in the mouth.
It's a good trick to hide from the world.
Not to mention the needles, which are certainly used to inject highly concentrated anesthetics.
Xu Gong was injected with an anesthetic and couldn't make a sound for help, so he could only let the doorman hang him on the beam of the house with white silk.
Qiao Wei can already be 1,000% sure that this missing doorman should be her "wearing friend".
Qiao Wei pointed to the copper coin and asked Sun Quan, "Does the daughter-in-law of the Xu family also contain this thing in her mouth?" ”
Sun Quan nodded, "The other one is there now." ”
But this matter suddenly became very confusing, why did this "wearer" comrade kill Xu Gong, and he also framed the crime to the Sun family.
Is this a grudge against the Sun family?
And obviously, this "wearing friend" will most likely not be soul piercing, can get anesthetics and needles, and maybe it also has gold fingers such as space and systems.
Qiao Wei fell into a deep emo, why can people have cheats, she didn't have her turn.
"Junli is already doing his best to track down this man's whereabouts." Sun Quan's expression was also very solemn, this person's methods were ruthless and secretive, and even a little terrifying, such a person was hiding around and they almost couldn't detect it.
And he definitely didn't have any good thoughts about the Sun family, which made Sun Quan feel a sense of crisis.
"Don't leave the Sun Mansion in the near future, I will ask Youye to take someone to guard the Sun Mansion, Auntie, you pay more attention to some movements." Sun Quan told him carefully, but he was worried that Qiao Wei was a little bitter about Old Madam Wu.
"Although my mother is a little harsh, she is not an unreasonable person."
"I know." Although Qiao Wei was very dissatisfied with Mrs. Wu in her heart, now that the major events were ahead, she could still distinguish the priorities.
Sun Quan looked at Qiao Wei, who took care of the overall situation so much, and the guilt in his heart was even worse.
"By the way, did you write to inform my uncle about this? Not only should our Sun Mansion in Wu County pay attention, but also Uncle should be more cautious.
Now that the Sun family has a lot of enemies, you and your uncle have extremely bad habits, and you don't like to bring a few more attendants when you go out, relying on your martial arts to be reckless and unprepared.
That's not a good thing. ”
Qiao Wei's reminder can only go here.
Sun Ce was able to be assassinated, in the final analysis, because of his own arrogance, which made people seize the opportunity and hit him with one blow.
No matter how full of coincidences and serendipity this assassination event sounds.
However, Sun Ce's personality and the current situation surrounded by powerful enemies of the Sun family still show that the occurrence of this incident has a certain inevitability.
No matter how much Sun Quan and Qiao Wei defended Xu Gong and his disciples, the key to the matter was still Sun Ce himself.
