"Oh? I've heard about this too, but none of us have ever seen the Jurchens' leather armor. Whether this is just speculation or not remains to be verified!"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled, "Whether it's true or not, I have a way to make the most powerful bow and arrow in the world with the most powerful attack power. Please ask my father-in-law for help!"
Li Yukun was very happy when he heard that Zhao Xuanyi was so confident, "Okay, with my son-in-law's courage, I can give him to you, but what kind of bow do you want? Now our bows, arrows, and crossbows are already pretty good. You Can you make any other bows and arrows?"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled slightly on his face, "Father-in-law, just look at it. As long as I make this bow and arrow, it will definitely be the best bow in the world that has never been made before or since!"
When Li Yukun heard this, he frowned, thinking that these words were very domineering and nice to hear, but could Zhao Xuanyi really do it at such a young age?
After leaving the hall, Zhao Xuanyi and Li Hanyan walked in the yard. Li Hanyan was very curious. She had practiced martial arts since she was a child, so she knew how to use bow and arrow, but who was the best bow in the world? What does that look like? "Xuanyi, what kind of bow do you want? Is it from a foreign tribe?"
Zhao Xuanyi shook his head, "Forget that kind of rubbish, it's nothing more than a bow bent with green bamboo and wrapped with hemp rope. It's very boring!"
"Then what are you going to do?"
Zhao Xuanyi looked around, "I remember there is a place for martial arts training in the house. Take me to see it, shoot an arrow and let me see it!"
"It's done!" When talking about martial arts training, Li Hanyan was naturally happy and took Zhao Xuanyi to the martial arts training yard. Li Hanyan happily took down a red curved bow from the weapon rack, picked up a bunch of arrows, and stood Twenty meters away, bow and arrow!
【Whoosh...pop! 】The arrow stabbed firmly into the red heart in the middle of the wooden rake. Li Hanyan looked at Zhao Xuanyi with a proud look on her face, "How is it? Isn't it awesome?"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled and clapped his hands, "Show me the bow!"
Li Hanyan put the bow and arrow in Zhao Xuanyi's hand. Zhao Xuanyi took it over and took a closer look. He saw that the bow was made of peach wood, wrapped in snake skin, and the bow string was made of steel wire. Zhao Xuanyi pulled it and felt this The bow is so heavy that I can't draw it at all!
"Hahaha...!" Zhao Xuanyi did not draw his bow, causing the four girls beside him to laugh!
Zhao Xuanyi didn't pay attention and turned to look at Li Hanyan, "The bow is good, but it's too heavy. I want to ask my wife, if you keep shooting arrows, how many arrows can you shoot with your physical strength?"
Li Hanyan thought for a while, "I once tried it. If I didn't stop, I could shoot forty-two arrows! Then I couldn't do it. My arms were very tired!"
"Yes! You are born with great strength, so you can only use this bow. If it were given to an ordinary soldier, let alone forty arrows, he might not be able to open the bow! But the bow I want to make can be It’s labor-saving, and…?”
Zhao Xuanyi walked to the archery target and looked at it, "It can also increase the power!" Zhao Xuanyi pulled out the bow and arrow with force, only to see a mark on the bullseye.
"Increase power? If you don't have divine power, how can you increase the power of bows and arrows?" Li Hanyan asked.
"You don't need to think about this kind of thing! From today on, go back and tell your father-in-law that I won't have time to say hello. I want to draw a picture of the new bow, and then wait for the forger to come and make the best bow in the world for you to see. !" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he turned and left.
Li Hanyan was very surprised when she held the bow in her hand. The best bow in the world? What would that look like?
Zhao Xuanyi returned to the room, and Zi Yuan hurriedly closed the door. "Uncle, what did you say is the best bow in the world? This is not a joke!"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled and took Zi Yuan's hand, "Are you worried about me?"
Zi Yuan shook off Zhao Xuanyi's hand, "Stop making trouble, when is it? If you can't do it by then, you will be laughed at!"
"Who is laughing at me? I didn't tell anyone else! It's just a few people in my family who know, and I'm not talking nonsense. Prepare paper, ink, pen and inkstone, I'm going to start doing serious things!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
Zi Yuan frowned slightly, "Uncle, are you serious?"
Zhao Xuanyi grabbed a handful of Zi Yuan's buttocks and said, "Of course! Go quickly!"
Zi Yuan rolled her eyes at Zhao Xuanyi, knocked off Zhao Xuanyi's magic claw, and then started grinding. Zhao Xuanyi came to the desk, picked up a pen and started drawing. Although his handwriting was not good-looking, the drawing was okay!
During the day, Zhao Xuanyi did not leave the room at all, because he had already drawn many drawings, but considering the level of forging in ancient times and the quality of some steel materials, he had to make changes.
Finally, I successfully drew a set of drawings, including the power wheel, bow body, bow string, special grip, and some more detailed parts drawings. The whole set has a dozen drawings in total!
Zhao Xuanyi sat motionless on the chair tiredly, and threw the pen in his hand on the ground casually. Zi Yuan took the drawing and looked at it. There were many parts on it that she had never seen before, and she didn't recognize them, and the middle part of the bow body It turned out to be concave, like an inverted crescent moon. Zi Yuan couldn't understand what power this weird bow could have.
"Uncle, is this the bow you want to make?" Zi Yuan asked.
"That's right!"
"Does this... strange bow have a name?"
"Compound bow... uh, let's call it Tianyi Bow!" It was finally made with a twist, how could it not be given a domineering name?
"Tianyi Bow? The name is good!" Zi Yuan didn't say anything else!
Zhao Xuanyi hugged Zi Yuan from behind and was so frightened that Zi Yuan dropped the drawings in her hands. "Uncle, are you acting up again?"
Zhao Xuanyi chuckled, "I'm tired, and I just want to hug you. When you go to get dinner later, get more, call Brother Shen over to eat together, and then ask your father-in-law, when will the forging master arrive?"
"oh!"
Zhao Xuanyi kissed Zi Yuan on the lips, "Go!" After saying that, he carefully put away the drawings. Ancient steel cannot be processed to the precision of modern times, so the power may be reduced, but as long as the principles of physics are still there, then this The bow must be able to exert power beyond common sense!
Two days later, a blacksmith named Zhang Han came. He looked about forty years old and his hands were full of calluses. He looked like he was doing craft work. Zhao Xuanyi was very happy and invited Zhang Han to his yard. Inside, hot tea and desserts are served!
Then he took out his drawings and said, "Master Zhang, look at it, can you understand the drawings I drew?"
Zhang Han took the drawing and looked at it, and was instantly surprised. "Uncle, how did you make this drawing? There are many things in it, and they all seem to be parts from the West! For example, this screw?"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled slightly and said, "Master Zhang, let's forget about these. Can you make them?"
Zhang Han took the drawing and looked at it for a long time, but he never said anything!
When Li Hanyan heard that Zhang Han was coming, she planned to come to Zhao Xuanyi's yard to see what he was going to do. She came over with Qinglian and Litchi, but when she got to the door, she was stopped by Shen Wei!
"Madam, the young master is doing business, please don't disturb me!" Shen Wei said very coldly, as if he didn't have much respect for this young lady!
Li Hanyan frowned, "Shen Wei, this is my home. I can go wherever I want, and you dare to stop me? Back off!" Li Hanyan shouted.
"Young Master said that at this critical moment, no one can go in, even if... the master comes!" Shen Wei said.
"What?" Li Hanyan looked at Zhao Xuanyi in the yard, and she almost exploded with anger. "He is so brave, I am his wife!"
Shen Wei looked at Li Hanyan coldly, "I advise Madam to restrain herself. If the General finds out that the young lady has not consummated the marriage with the young master and has no heirs, this matter will be big or small!" Shen Wei didn't care about expressing his true thoughts. Speaking out, Shen Wei was very angry at Li Hanyan who actually asked the young master to be with the maid to resolve the couple's affairs!
When Li Hanyan heard this, her face turned red. She knew she was in a bad situation and did not dare to say to Shen Wei, "I'm looking for Xuanyi. Xuanyi, I'm here. I want to see the drawings you drew!"
Zhao Xuanyi heard Li Hanyan's voice from a distance and felt very irritated: "Go back to your room, I don't have time to pay attention to you! Brother Shen, get out of here! Don't bother me!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei turned to look at Li Hanyan, "Madam, please go back. If you disturb the young master's important affairs, the general will probably punish you. Of course, if you have the ability to defeat me, I can naturally ignore it!"
"You?" Li Hanyan really had no choice when she saw such a arrogant Shen Wei. Shen Wei was a well-known red spear general in the world. Even if he brought Fang Tian's painted halberd, he probably wouldn't be able to look down on him in front of him. Li Hanyan The more he thought about it, the more he felt wronged. Zhao Xuanyi didn't even try to help him, his eyes slowly turned red, and he turned around and ran away angrily!
Zi Yuan saw these things in her eyes and was very anxious, "Uncle, is it too much to treat the young lady like this?"
Zhao Xuanyi glared, "Don't bother me now! Just stand aside!"
Zhao Xuanyi and his arrogant character frightened Zhang Han. He had long heard that the general's son-in-law had a very bad temper, but he didn't expect it to be true. Even the lady said he would drive him away!
"I asked Master Zhang, can you make it? Do you understand the dimensions on it?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"Ah, I can see it clearly, but there are a lot of small parts in it. It is not very easy to make. I'm afraid it will take some time, and it also requires good steel!" Zhang Han said.
"This is not a problem. I told my father-in-law that you just need to use the best steel to make it for me. How long will it take for these parts to be forged?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"If I want to hurry up, I can take the drawings back and wear them with all my disciples for seven days! Seven days is enough!" Zhang Han said.
Zhao Xuanyi counted the days, and it was enough. "Master Zhang, I can give you the blueprint, but you must keep it secret, and your apprentice must be trustworthy. If this blueprint is spread, I dare say that all of you, including your family, will I can't even save my head!" Zhao Xuanyi said coldly, the aura of death was already very strong!
Zhang Han was so frightened that he immediately knelt down, "Don't worry, uncle, my father and I have been forging weapons for generals for two generations, and this kind of thing has never happened!"
Zhao Xuanyi helped Zhang Han up, "Master Zhang, it's not that I don't believe you, but this will be the best bow in the world. I don't dare to bet on it! Brother Shen, come on!"
Shen Wei hurriedly ran over, "Young Master, is something wrong?"
Zhao Xuanyi handed the drawings to Shen Wei, "You and Master Zhang will go together later. I will give these drawings to you. You can use them however you want. It all depends on Master Zhang's instructions, but you must keep it secret and don't let others take one away!" "
