Pirate Song

Chapter 67 Clairvoyance

"Good bow!" Gao Huaiyuan nodded and praised after releasing an arrow.

He was taking a few people with him and wandering around in the mountains. The bows he held in his hands were not the three two-stone bows he brought back from the army, but a brand new black lacquered bow with a power of nine.

The bow body is recurved, with two smooth bow lugs at both ends. The bow arms are made of ash as the bow tip, and the ash wood as the bow tire. It is supplemented by horn pieces, glued with isinglass made from fish floats, and finally brushed.

It is coated with black paint to prevent moisture, and the bow string is made of raw silk and beef tendon. After hanging on the bow lug, it becomes the big black paint bow in Gao Huaiyuan's hand.

Gao Huaiyuan went out today not specifically for hunting, but to test how this bow produced by Wohu Village works. After he shot an arrow just now, a pheasant thirty steps away landed on it.

Among the grass.

A black dog immediately ran over, took the pheasant back, and placed it at Gao Huaiyuan's feet. He looked at Gao Huaiyuan with his tongue out. Gao Huaiyuan took out a small piece of meat breast from his pocket and stuffed it into it.

After catching this black dog, the guy lay down at his feet happily and chewed the meat.

A middle-aged man shouted from behind Gao Huaiyuan: "Young Master is really good at archery! At such a long distance, an arrow penetrated the chest of a pheasant. This is an extraordinary sight. I used to be a hunter, so I can't say that I can shoot like this."

Correct!"

Gao Huaiyuan smiled and looked at the black paint bow in his hand, and said to the middle-aged man who was talking: "Qin Hu, please don't praise me. The reason why you can shoot accurately is because the black paint bow you made is good."

, if there is a slight deviation in the bow arm, the arrow will not move accurately, and no matter how good your shooting skills are, it will be in vain! Haha! It seems that you are really good at making bows! Not bad!"

This man named Qin Hu was also a craftsman brought back by Gao Huaiyuan before the army. At this time, he was already a very important craftsman in Gao Huaiyuan's hands. He said: "This is the only skill we have. We have been hunters for generations.

It is impossible to live without bows and arrows, so each of our ancestors knew how to make bows, and the craftsmanship has been passed down to me. It is a small blessing to be able to help the young master!"

Qin Hu is from Xiangzhou, Hebei Province. Hebei people have always been brave and fierce. When the Jin people invaded the south, the Hebei people rebelled all over the country and dealt a huge blow to the Jin people. He was the absolute main force in the fight against the Jin people. Most of the backbone of the Yue family army was

They are all from Hebei, especially people from Xiangzhou and Tangyin areas who have a tradition of practicing martial arts, so Qin Hu also has the legacy of a military general. When he invaded the south with the Jin army, he had no choice but to be captured in the army, but

He had no sense of belonging to the Jin Kingdom and was one of the first to surrender to the Song Army.

Now Qin Hu has won Gao Huaiyuan's trust and can basically stay by Gao Huaiyuan's side. In addition to being good at shooting arrows, Qin Hu is also very good with his long fist. He is one of the few people in Zhuangzi who can do this.

He is a man who has made a few moves under Gao Huaiyuan, and his skill in making bows is even more valued by Gao Huaiyuan. It is really not easy to find a good bow in the market in this world. After having Qin Hu

, Wohu Village solved the problem of using bows and met its own needs. There was no need to risk purchasing or ask Xing Captou for help in purchasing some military bows.

Gao Huaiyuan handed the black lacquer bow in his hand to Zhou Hao who was standing aside. Zhou Hao also weighed it, tried to pull the bowstring, nodded, said nothing, but took out a carved feather arrow from the quiver,

He tightened the string and aimed at the woods, moved his arm slowly, and suddenly loosened the string, only to hear a wild boar's whine coming from the woods.

Several hounds immediately ran into the jungle, only to hear the howl of a wild boar in the jungle. Soon the hounds pulled out a small wild boar weighing several dozen kilograms and pulled it in front of Gao Huaiyuan and his party. Zhao

The companions went over and patted their heads one by one, and fed them some dried meat. The hounds also lay down on the ground and started chewing proudly.

"It turns out that Brother Zhou is also good at archery!" Qin Hu sighed.

"Zhou Hao is my junior fellow student. His archery skills are indeed quite good. His single sword skills are also very sophisticated. Most people should not underestimate him now!" Gao Huaiyuan smiled at Qin Hu.

"You know, the last time I fought with Brother Zhou, he knocked his sword away before I could make ten moves. The young master's men are really crouching tigers, hidden dragons!" Qin Hu nodded repeatedly.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon can't be said. I just want to protect myself in troubled times!" Gao Huaiyuan shook his head.

After several people carried the prey, they continued to walk into the mountains. After reaching a mountain top, Gao Huaiyuan took out a cylinder from his arms, pulled it open, put it to his eyes and looked into the distance, and then adjusted it.

After looking at the cylinder, he handed the cylinder to Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao took the copper pipe suspiciously and looked it over in his hand. He saw that the copper pipe was made up of two copper pipes and could be stretched to adjust the length. There were glazed pieces on both sections, so he tried to imitate it.

He also raised his eyes to look around.

Despite Zhou Hao's calm character, when he saw what was inside the copper tube, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my God, this thing seems to pull things in the distance right in front of you.

What is it!"

"Let me have a look! Let me have a look too! Zhao Tong, don't grab it, are you looking for a fight?" Zhou Jun jumped over to grab the copper pipe in Zhou Hao's hand. Seeing Zhao Tong also reaching out, he first took Zhao Tong's

The hand hit the side.

Even Qin Hu came over after hearing Zhou Hao's exclamation, wanting to see what this thing was, but he was too embarrassed to fight with them, so he stood on the outside eagerly, stretching his neck to look around.

After a fight, Zhou Jun grabbed the copper pipe, put it to his eyes and exclaimed: "Oh my god! My mother! Why are you so close!"

So a group of people scrambled for it again, and this magical copper pipe was turned around in everyone's hands, and finally fell into the hands of Qin Hu, who had been waiting for a long time. It was not that everyone was polite, but Qin Hu really couldn't stand everyone.

The temptation forced him to join the fight in the end. When Qin Hu saw that the scenery inside the copper tube suddenly became much closer, his mouth opened wide. It took him a long time to shout out: "My God! This is simply a miracle."

Ah! How did you do it? Master! Master! What is this! Oh my God!"

Under Qin Hu's series of exclamations, the copper pipe finally returned to Gao Huaiyuan's hands.

"This thing is called a telescope. I will tell you the specific principle later, but as the name suggests, a telescope is a mirror for looking at distant scenery. Through this thing, we can see distant scenery that we could not see before. Everyone also knows

Having seen it, I would like to ask everyone, do you think this thing is of any use?" Gao Huaiyuan asked everyone while playing with the telescope in his hand.

In fact, Gao Huaiyuan has been quietly tinkering with this telescope. He has made several pairs of such monocular telescopes using the existing resources at hand. However, because the lenses are difficult to make, it has delayed a lot of time. He has tried his best to make this telescope.

, the first few telescopes we built, because the lenses were substandard, the scenery we saw almost looked like abstract paintings, it was out of shape and could not be used normally at all.

What's even more ridiculous is that he forgot a key issue. The first trial product actually showed an inverted image, which made Gao Huaiyuan dumbfounded. Only then did he remember that making a telescope was not that simple. Fortunately, he

I still remembered some relevant knowledge and quickly corrected this mistake.

Later, I still used the most transparent and colorless glass stored in Liulifang. I melted and stirred the glass liquid to make it uniform, then poured it, and finally forged it with a mold. After slowly cooling down, I finally achieved good results, although the clarity was far away.

It is not as good as those produced by the famous optical glass instrument factories of later generations, but in this world, it is not easy to make a usable telescope and see the distant scenery relatively clearly.

As for the lens barrel, there are both coppersmiths and decorators in Wohu Village. It is easy for them to make such a relatively simple thing. However, there is still a problem that has not been finally solved, which is the sealing problem of the lens barrel.

Sometimes, water vapor would condense on the inside of the lens, making the eyepiece blurry. Later, he simply made the lenses on both ends detachable. Whenever water vapor appeared, he could remove it at any time, wipe it clean, screw it on and continue using it.

It finally took a long time to create such a usable product. Today, in addition to trying out the bow made by Qin Hu, he also showed off his new product to everyone.

Of course, the effect was satisfactory to him. When these bumpkins saw this thing for the first time, they were really shocked that it was made by heaven and man. It just so happened that he also used the thought storm method to let the big thing know about Qin Hu's ability to make bows.

The praises were endless, which made Qin Hu very happy.

"Qin Hu, I will try to make a two-stone and five-doll bow with this kind of bow. During this time, I feel that I have become stronger. The two-stone bow has become a little lighter when used. It seems that I need to replace it with a newer one.

It's a stiff bow. Fortunately, you are here now. Otherwise, I really don't know where to find a stiffer bow!" Gao Huaiyuan told Qin Hu.

"Yes, Master! I will buy the materials as soon as I get back and make it for Master! But the hardest bow I made before was only one stone and seven buckets. The two-stone bow like the one used by Master, I feel is rare.

Someone can use it, the young master is really born with supernatural power! I boast that my strength is no longer small, and now I can only use a hard bow that costs one stone and five pounds. I used to boast that I was the best in the village, but now I know that I am a frog in the well! I think back then,

The only person in our Song Dynasty army who can use a strong bow is Prince Yue (after Yue Fei was rehabilitated by Xiaozong, he was posthumously named King of E by Ning Zong, so the people now call Yue Fei Prince Yue!) who can make a three-stone hard bow, and now the young master can use it.

After a while, the young master will also be able to draw the three-stone bow. We have another Prince Yue in the Song Dynasty! Haha!" Qin Hu agreed while looking at Gao Huaiyuan and Yue Fei.

Compare.

Gao Huaiyuan burst into sweat. Who is Yue Fei? He is a figure like the God of War in the minds of many people in China. How dare he compare with Yue Fei! So he quickly shook his head.

"No way, don't compare me with Prince Yue, it will make me die of shame! Who is Prince Yue? He has been loyal to the country through life and death, and he is also honest and unmoved by gold and silver.

Now I am just a rich man who amassed money. How dare I compare with his old man? It really kills me!

I think that the Jingxiang Army was left behind by Prince Yue during his lifetime, and its predecessor was the Yue Family Army. Unfortunately, now that Prince Yue is no longer around, the combat power has dropped to such an extent. If he is still alive, how can the Jin people invade our borders! I can only hate it.

That treacherous minister Qin Hui killed Prince Yue! When I think about it, I gnash my teeth with hatred! I really want to dig up Qin Hui’s ancestral grave!" Gao Huaiyuan said, but now he lives in the Southern Song Dynasty under the Zhao family, and he does not dare to point the finger.

Pointing directly at Song Gaozong and Zhao Gou, in fact, the person he hated the most was Song Gaozong, the bastard. The one who really killed Yue Fei should not be Qin Hui, but this bastard emperor.

Qin Hu blushed for a while and said: "My surname is also Qin. I'm really ashamed that our Qin family has such a big scum! If the young master digs up Qin Hui's ancestral grave, don't assume that my surname is Qin. Call me

I will accompany the young master to dig Qin Hui's grave in person. Only by whipping the corpse can the hatred be relieved!"

Only then did Gao Huaiyuan remember that he had scolded all the people named Qin, so he hurriedly stayed with Qin Hu for a while. After all, when it comes to digging up Qin Hui's ancestral grave, who knows if all the people with the surname Qin in the world come from the same family! This

It's a bit too much to say that there is not only one Qin Hui with the surname Qin, but Qin Qiong is also a hero of the generation! What's more, there are bad and good people among people with any surname. It's a bit unfair to say that, but when I think of the name Qin Hui,

I was just a little too angry, that's why I said such words.dd
