Chapter 52: Waiting for an Opportunity
Chen Yunzhao believed what Qian Wanjin said, but at the same time, he didn't believe it.
This sentence seems to be very contradictory, but in fact, sometimes Chen Yunzhao is very reluctant, and he regards his life very expensive, and sometimes for something very important to him, he can do whatever it takes, even if he abandons his life.
You say that he is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, but he has something more important than life, you say that he is a person who is not afraid of life and death, but he is more desperate than anyone else.
Qian Wanjin looked at Chen Yunzhao, and he remembered a sentence: "I want to fish and bear paws as I want, and I can't have both, those who give up fish and take bear paws; ”
Chen Yunzhao is such a person.
After Qian Wanjin left, Chen Yunzhao was alone, looking at the eighteen almost identical swords in the vault.
The eighteen swords are exactly the same if you don't look closely, but if you look closely, you'll see that each sword is slightly different.
Of course, this is where the details come in.
If you compare the real Book Sword with the remaining seventeen fake Book Life Swords, you will find that the real Book Life Sword is more like a high imitation version.
This means that if you take out the rest of the fake book life sword casually, the world will think that the fake is real, and it is really fake.
Looking at the pile of swords in front of him, Chen Yunzhao smiled, he only needed an opportunity now, so he had to wait.
"Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed!" Chen Yunzhao looked at the corner, and the materials prepared by Qian Wanjin and Xiao Zhi for him began to get busy.
The drawings designed according to the theory have almost been perfected, and now what he needs to do is to put the theory into practice.
Before that, he had to experiment first, and his theory would not be valid, and then he still had to go to Uncle Xu who was working in the blacksmith.
Looking at the sulfur, gunpowder, and various copper and iron ore in front of him, and looking at the drawings placed on the table, Chen Yunzhao began to tinker simply.
However, Chen Yunzhao did not have an iron mold, so he used a small porcelain cup as an iron mold.
He didn't know if it was okay, but if it was sealed, it would be about the same.
The gunpowder is okay, at least a little bit of it will ignite, Chen Yunzhao accidentally caused the gunpowder to ignite, and the gunpowder ash squinted into his eyes, making him unable to open it for a long time.
Finally, in the second half of the night, he simply made a finished product out of the vault and tried it in a barren forest.
Chen Yunzhao lit the line of fire and ran behind a tree a few meters away to hide, because it was night by the moonlight, he could only see a little heart of fire moving, and he could not see how long the line of fire was left, so he could only wait.
I only heard a "boom" of the line of fire burning, igniting the gunpowder inside, the gunpowder exploded, and the porcelain pieces of the small porcelain bottle splashed everywhere and were nailed into several nearby tree stumps.
It's okay to look at the power, the explosion range is about four or five meters.
Chen Yunzhao is not very satisfied with this effect, this kind of power can only be effective at close range, and the killing range is not large, unless it is against a group of fools without brains, otherwise the effect is very low.
"I should consider adding some marbles to it, but then it is suitable for long-distance ambushes, or lose one when breaking into the mountain gate, otherwise it is easy to accidentally injure friendly soldiers, well, prepare a little bit of both!"
"Well, before that, I have to ask Uncle Xu to help me build a few molds, alas, I don't know if the molds created like this will be a little less powerful in comparison. ”
"Forget it, it's enough, it's enough, and I'll have to prepare some smoke grenades just in case, and I don't think there are many bombs that can be made from these gunpowders, but so far it should be enough. ”
Chen Yunzhao went to Uncle Xu with the drawings the next day, and Uncle Xu also received him very warmly.
This time, I heard that Chen Yunzhao was going to tinker with strange things, and Uncle Xu generously said that he could help and do labor for free.
"Uncle Xu, it's really not that I'm stingy, but this strange thing is too dangerous, if you want to see it, when I finish fiddling it, I can show you a demonstration. ”
Chen Yunzhao explained: "Look at my finger, I accidentally injured it when I was tinkering with that thing yesterday. ”
Uncle Xu looked at Chen Yunzhao's fingers and said in surprise: "Yunzhao, you are burned, this thing you are making is related to fire?"
"It's about fire, after all, he has to light it to have an effect, it's like frying popcorn. ”
Uncle Xu didn't ask much, he knew that Chen Yunzhao was a good boy and would not do that kind of big and evil thing, and the two were very familiar with the comings and goings, Uncle Xu's wife and children had passed away, and seeing Chen Yunzhao reminded him of his own child, so he was willing to take more care of him.
In the next period of time, Chen Yunzhao began to tinker with smoke bombs, which he made relatively simple, that is, the bamboo tube he used, but he burned the bamboo tube dry, and the moist and fresh bamboo tube was easy to be eaten by bamboo insects, which was not cost-effective.
The use of fire can largely prevent the gnawing of bamboo insects, so that the smoke bomb can be managed for a longer time.
This thing is also a handicraft job, and Chen Yunzhao doesn't have much time to spend on it, so after ten days, Chen Yunzhao only made twenty smoke bombs, and the remaining materials are enough for him to make another twenty.
After getting the materials from Uncle Xu, Chen Yunzhao began to work behind closed doors, focusing on making smoke bombs and bombs.
There are two kinds of bombs, one is a lot of iron marbles in it, and the other is an ordinary bomb.
The iron marbles were actually not smooth, they were all kinds of residues and fragments left over from the iron, and he put them in, so that he could not only save materials, but also achieve high lethality.
This type of bomb was called by him Rainstorm Pear Blossom.
Another ten days passed, and Chen Yunzhang made five rainstorm pear blossoms, fifteen bombs and ten smoke bombs.
In other words, he now has five Rainstorm Pear Blossoms, fifteen bombs, and thirty smoke bombs.
He still had some extra material and he could keep doing it, but today the opportunity he was waiting for came.
Recently, there has been news about the Book Sword on the rivers and lakes, and this time the place where the Book Sword appeared happened to be Huashan......
It happens to be in a small village four or five miles east of Huashan.
As before, this time Zhou Qiankun still had the news of his appearance, and everyone rushed there.
This was the opportunity he was waiting for.
Chen Yunzhao contacted Xiao Zhi through Qian Wanjin and secretly negotiated overnight.
The place of the negotiation was not elsewhere, but in the vault.
"Xiao Zhi, this time I have to ask you to do something you never dared to think about. Chen Yunzhao winked at Qian Wanjin and Xiao Zhi very mysteriously.
Seeing Chen Yunzhao's performance, Xiao Zhi suddenly became interested, you must know that this has never happened before.
Therefore, Xiao Zhi said: "Then let's say, if there is anything you need my help with, you can also ensure that I can watch a good show!"
"It's nature!"
ps: School starts today, and there are almost no code word updates, so I have to change to a weekly update, please forgive me!
