Everyone looked at what Liang Shuopeng was holding, it was a jet-black bow, with two pulleys at each end of the bow, and complex components that tightened the bowstring and folded it into two or three layers. Liang Shuopeng stroked the bow and said slowly: "This bow must have been seen on TV or in reality before, I have successfully restored it in this world, it is a compound bow, and some people call it a pulley bow." ”

Liang Shuopeng came to open the bow and showed it and said: "I have experimented with this bow in the blacksmith shop in the back mountain, and after adjustment, because of the material limitations, the maximum weight can only reach 60 pounds. But even at this poundage, the muzzle velocity is comparable to that of a pistol, and the lethality is stronger than a pistol within 100 meters, and it is definitely no problem to wear the heavy armor of this world. ”

"Can this bow be more powerful than a pistol?" Lin Qiang looked at the black bow and felt a little incredible.

Liang Shuopeng nodded and said: "I have done tests, and the parts on this bow are all made by my hands, and the strength is absolutely reliable." It's just that there are no high-strength alloys and plastics in this world, so the pound is limited, otherwise it shouldn't be a problem to get 80 pounds. ”

Tsuneishi took the compound bow from Liang Shuopeng's hand and pulled it suddenly, the feeling of the bowstring made his heart jump sharply, and he said, "Yes, it's this feeling." I used to go to the archery gym for a while, and I used to operate a heavy bow with a large weight when I went to the field. Although the weight and feel of modern materials are incomparable, Liang Shao's handsome is very restored. ”

"Where's the arrow?" Lin Qiang asked. Liang Shuopeng proposed a black quiver with a leather buckle on it, and when he opened it, he found that it was full of black short arrows with tail feathers, and the arrows were almost level with the shaft, like sharpened wooden sticks.

"There are a total of 50 arrows in it, and if there are too many, it is not practical because the weight is too large. This thing is more than ten catties in total, and the compound bow is about 15 kilograms, which is about 30 kilograms, and it takes thirty or forty kilograms to carry this set of bows and arrows. Liang Shuopeng said.

"Thirty or forty pounds of bows and arrows alone? Then who can take it. Gao Ting said.

Tsuneishi took the quiver, lifted his bow and arrows, and tried it on his back, "No problem, I can do it." It's not easy, but it's okay to run normally. ”

Gao Ting was stunned and sighed: "Chang guidance is Chang Gui, the body is just right." ”

"How many sets of arrows are there?" Lin Qiang asked Liang Shuopeng. Liang Shuopeng pointed to the bow and arrow on Chang Shi's body and said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, these parts are all rubbed by my hands, and this is the set that has been done so far." But now that I've formed a production standard and made a batch of fine parts with a lathe, I'm almost ready to assemble them. ”

Lin Qiang nodded and said, "Does the blacksmith shop support you to make weapons?" This is important. Liang Shuopeng thought for a while and said: "Yes, Lao Zhang asked me about this bow and arrow after Rhodes's accident, he is now taking a blacksmith to help me get this bow and arrow, and by tomorrow with the existing parts, it should be able to assemble 50, but it will take time to debug." ”

Han Xu asked, "So, this bow and arrow we can guarantee to face the mage of that strength before, what are you going to do next?" Not only Han Xu had this question, but everyone also had it, all staring at Lin Qiang.

Lin Qiang's fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, he was weighing the pros and cons, and the silence made everyone feel suffocated. After a long time, Lin Qiang spoke: "Save Rhodes." ”

"Who's going to save it?" Han Xu asked.

"Only Tsuneishi can go." Lin Qiang looked at Tsuneishi.

"It's too dangerous to go alone." Duan Lingzi said worriedly.

"He doesn't need to kill all the thirty or forty people who came today. Just need to get Rhodes out. Lin Qiang still frowned, gritted his teeth and said.

"To put it lightly, no matter how strong Tsuneishi's physical strength is, he will face thirty or forty well-trained soldiers on the opposite side, and it is certain that there is an intermediate magician, and it is difficult to say whether there are other magicians under him." Duan Lingzi said.

Lin Qiang turned his head to Liang Shuopeng and said, "How many phonographs have been built by the Hou faction?" ”

When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up.

Lin Qiang continued: "Everyone, they all say that wealth is sought in danger, but we are not just seeking wealth in danger, but surviving in danger. Lin Qiang looked at everyone who was depressed, pointed to the direction where Rod left, and said, "Rod was arrested, but we have no clues now." Rhodes didn't even say a word. How do we do that? How do we deal with ourselves? Rod said let's go to Thompson, the rich businessman, but where is Thompson? Do you want to go to the waterfront according to Rhodes? Is he always on the waterfront? Lin Qiang asked repeatedly, no one could answer, not even himself.

"What's more, it's been half a year since we came to another world, and this mine is the place we are most familiar with at the moment, and there are no magicians here, everyone is a coolie. We invent here, get along with the miners, and work hard. But we are not the masters here, we know what the next mine owner will be? Our business cannot be left to uncertain possibilities. ”

Lin Qiang said quickly and quickly, then he paused for a moment to catch his breath, and then continued: "The only thing we can be sure of is that Rhodes is very good to us at the moment, and the people in the mine are also convinced by Rhodes. So the only way we have at the moment is to save him. We can't move the steam engine, we can't move the lathe of the beam. But Rhodes we can save. ”

"But after all, it's an army from the lord, and if we go and save Rod, then we will face the lord. Do we have the ability to face a provincial lord of this world now? Han Xu lit the table.

Lin Qiang smiled, he said, "Then it depends on what you think." If we live like dogs all our lives, then we better not conflict with anyone in this world, but in ten, twenty, fifty years, we will also be coolies to be slaughtered, unless you can one day awaken your magical talents. ”

"Don't count on it, I've worked hard for a long time, but I don't feel like I'm this material at all, family." Zhao Huiying said distressedly. "Laugh to death, I won't either." Gao Ting also complained.

"The problem is to let Tsuneishi go now, isn't that a death?" Li Xueyuan said.

"Or let's go together." Liang Shuopeng said.

"It's inconvenient to have too many people, at most three people. It's not enough to send you to death, just do something, and if there is no play, we will withdraw it. Lin Qiang said to Liang Shuopeng: "Let's go together and bring the gramophone of the Hou faction, no matter how much we do." ”

Under the wind and snow, Brad led his troops to escort Rhodes on the mountain road. It is true that the miners' village of the mine is at the foot of the mountain, but that refers to the foot of the mining mountain, and there are mountains at the foot of the mine, and you can't go out of the continuous mountains without walking for a day or two. The ordinary guards under Brad's hand kept sneezing, and the other three junior magicians in the team also didn't have a good face for Brad. But Brad had nothing to do, he took the eldest son of the Hussein family, Raul. Hussein's order required him to travel day and night to immediately escort the owner of this remote mine back.

He is an intermediate-level magician, and a magician of this level can be hailed as a dragon and phoenix among people in the entire kingdom, unless he is born in a large aristocratic family, and can reach this level at the age of 30.

Cheng Shaowei's description of crossing a few people before was correct, he knows a variety of magic, is good at the earth system, once killed five junior magicians at the same time, and there are also examples of killing senior magicians by leapfrogging, although he cooperates with others.

However, this can only make him a so-called "pride of heaven" from a small aristocratic background, qualified to be the licking dog of the son of a big nobleman. Is Brad unwilling? There were, but at the age of thirty he never did. The big nobles are the big nobles, the small nobles are the small nobles, the cold family is the poor family, and the coolie is the coolie. He has accepted the oppression of the hierarchy, and at the same time he is happy to oppress those who are not as good as him.

The troops had set out from the provincial capital more than ten days earlier, and had just arrived in this damned backcountry yesterday. Then there was a flying pigeon that he should arrest the mine owner named Rhodes on the grounds of safety responsibility and other reasons. When I arrived, I found out, good guy, it turned out that the accident only happened yesterday. I can figure it out with my toes, that eldest prince is definitely not a clever plan, but arranged in advance. Whether he was afraid that the mine owner would run away or other reasons for this arrangement, then he did not know.

He looked at the team in front of him and couldn't help but pout. The military system of the Holy Volga Magic Kingdom is like this, an intermediate magician of his level can bring 20 ordinary guards who can't do magic to go out to battle each time, and the intermediate magician can be equipped with three junior magicians, and each junior magician also has five guards to follow. In general, the whole team was more than 30 people, but under the wind and snow, plus the mountain road, the march was also very difficult.

"Captain, the brothers really can't stand it anymore, let's set up camp." His guards pleaded with Brad. Brad looked at his sleepy subordinates, and knew how difficult it was to march at night. In the past, the mine could still have a little light in three shifts, but after Brad and others came, plus Rod was arrested, the people in the mine also spontaneously cut off the electricity, and production came to a standstill.

"Go to the open field ahead and set up camp." Brad said in a deep voice.

The team let out a cheer and screamed as they rushed towards the open field. It is said that it is an open land, but it is just a dam in the mountains, but this dam is connected to several deep valleys, and I don't know where it leads.

Brad vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell. However, after many years of experience in the march, he felt that something was wrong, and he looked at the brothers who were camping, and waved his horsewhip and shouted: "Get up, stop camping, this place is not right, let Lao Tzu continue to go." ”

From one of the valleys, an arrow could not even be heard under the cover of the wind and snow, and it flew in front of Brad like black lightning, and then continued to magnify in Brad's eyes.

"Poof" Brad watched as the arrow pierced through the armor in front of him like a layer of paper, and drilled deep into it.

A blood flower, blooming on the snow.
