Shen Wei took over a dozen drawings and said, "Yes! Don't worry, young master, I will protect you with my life!"
Zhao Xuanyi stood up and bowed slightly to Zhang Han, "Master Zhang, I'm sorry to bother you!"
Zhang Han hurriedly saluted, "Don't worry, uncle, I can definitely forge it!"
In this way, Shen Wei and Zhang Han left. Zhao Xuanyi was finally relieved and hoped that he could do it.
Zi Yuan looked at Zhao Xuanyi and thought to herself that this was the first time she saw Zhao Xuanyi doing something so seriously. Seeing how much he cared about the drawings, could it be possible that my uncle could really make a very powerful bow this time?
An hour later, Zhao Xuanyi was sitting on a chair drinking tea, while Zi Yuan was tidying up the room. A man's voice came from the yard, "Brother-in-law? Is brother-in-law here?"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard it, wasn't it Li Hanrui's voice? "Second brother, I'm in the room!"
Li Hanrui came in with Liu Bo, and Zhao Xuanyi hurriedly stood up to greet him, "Second brother, are you okay?"
"No problem!" Li Hanrui sat on the chair. Zi Yuan hurriedly came over and poured Li Hanrui a cup of tea.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Li Hanrui, "Second brother, are you looking for something to do with me?" Zhao Xuanyi thought to himself, Li Hanrui wouldn't come to play with him for nothing, right? Could he still go to the brothel and see Tang Rou?
After hearing this, Li Hanrui showed an embarrassed expression on his face, "Ah, this! In fact, Han Yan came to me just now, crying very wronged, saying that you yelled at her and didn't let her see the drawings you drew! I heard that you wanted to The best bow in the world? I’m also very curious, so I plan to come over and have a look!”
Zhao Xuanyi smiled and thought that Li Hanyan is really a child, and he is not afraid that the separation between you and me will be exposed. "The drawings have been taken away by Master Zhang Han. If everything goes well, I will take the drawings I made in a few days." Show me the bow to my second brother!"
Li Hanrui nodded, "Of course that's the best, but I'm curious, brother-in-law, why did you suddenly think of making weapons?"
Zhao Xuan patted his thigh with loyalty, "Second brother, isn't it because of you that I did this?"
"For me?" Li Hanrui didn't understand!
"Of course! The Jurchen tribe has been making moves recently. Have you heard about their leather armor?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"I've heard of it, but I've never seen it!"
"So, I want to make the most powerful bow and arrow. It is not only powerful, but also labor-saving. Even an ordinary soldier must be able to pull it and use it. If I make the best bow in the world, How much do you think we should sell it for?" Zhao Xuanyi asked with a smile.
Li Hanrui instantly understood that Zhao Xuanyi did all this to redeem Xueer's life. Li Hanrui was moved and took Zhao Xuanyi's hand. "Brother-in-law, no matter whether this matter succeeds or not, I will thank you!"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled and patted Li Hanrui's hand gently, "What did second brother say? We are all members of our own family. How can we say thank you? We haven't seen each other for several days. I will ask Zi Yuan to order some dishes to be cooked later." , let us brothers have some drinks?"
"Okay!" Li Hanrui smiled heartily.
Zhao Xuanyi has nothing to do in the next few days. The drawings have been given to them, and it depends on whether they can make it. Li Hanrui is also very concerned about this matter. He rides to the military camp every day to check the forging progress. Zhao Xuanyi has nothing to do. , so they circle around Ziyuan every day!
These past few days have made Zi Yuan cry. During the day, she had to guard against Zhao Xuanyi's hooliganism, and at night it was difficult to escape from the tiger's mouth. However, the day was too boring, so Zi Yuan taught Zhao Xuanyi how to ride a horse. She couldn't go everywhere by carriage, it was too slow!
On the fourth day, Zhao Mingqing had someone deliver a piece of leather armor, saying that Zhao Xuanyi needed it. After Zhao Xuanyi got the leather armor, Li Yukun, Li Hanrui, and Li Hanyan all came, and everyone took a look at the Jurchen armor. Tribal leather armor!
The outside looks like some kind of animal skin, black, very thick, and very soft to the touch, and the thickness of the leather armor is about one centimeter. Zhao Xuanyi thought that this thickness can block bows and arrows?
Li Yukun and others were also surprised: "Han Yan, shoot an arrow and see!"
"Yes!" Li Hanyan took the bow and arrow, hung the leather armor on the target, and shot an arrow. The arrow pierced the leather armor, but did not penetrate. The arrow lost its momentum and fell to the ground!
This scene surprised everyone present. Li Hanrui took off the leather armor and looked at it carefully. He didn't see any clue. He took out a dagger and cut open the leather armor. As soon as he opened it, he only heard a rustling sound. , a lot of fine sand fell out of the leather armor!
Zhao Xuanyi and others came over and picked up the fine sand. When they took a closer look, several people's eyes widened in surprise. "It turns out that this is the secret of leather armor! They used good animal skins to make the armor, and it was mixed with This kind of iron sand cannot be shot by ordinary bows and arrows!" Li Hanrui said.
Zhao Xuanyi thought there was some black technology, but it turned out to be Pigasha, but it was considered smart to come up with such a method!
After Li Yukun saw it, he sighed, "Although this method is a bit clumsy, it is also a very good defense method! The key is that our bows and arrows really can't penetrate it!"
Li Hanyan walked over with a proud look on her face, "Didn't someone say that he can make the best bow in the world? I wonder if you have made your bow after so many days?"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled, "Don't worry! Don't be afraid of being late for good food!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he turned and left without saying anything else!
Seven days later, Zhao Xuanyi followed Li Hanrui to the military camp. This was the first time Zhao Xuanyi came to the Li family's military camp. It was just a dozen miles outside the capital. From a distance, he could see a military tent and countless densely packed military tents. Qing soldiers!
This is the place where soldiers are trained. According to Li Hanrui, there are only 170,000 soldiers on the border, and there are about 20,000 here. In order to prevent things from happening in the capital, these soldiers are left behind. In name, they are training new recruits, but secretly they are surrounding them. Security outside the capital!
"Is there still danger in the capital? Are there not enough soldiers from the royal family?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
Li Hanrui smiled, "My brother-in-law, how can this capital be as simple as you think? To put it bluntly, this is to prevent your own people!"
"One of our own?"
Li Hanrui looked around and said cautiously, "For example, if a prince seeks to usurp the throne, or that prince rebels, the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion is just a decoration and cannot be defended at all, so we leave soldiers here!"
"Oh!" Zhao Xuanyi nodded, so that's it!
When Zhao Xuanyi walked into the barracks, he could hear the shouts of various soldiers, and all he saw were soldiers practicing marksmanship and sword skills. He was surrounded by soldiers with extraordinary qualities, which made Zhao Xuanyi truly admire him!
When they came to the place where weapons were forged, they heard various sounds of beating metal in the distance. Zhao Xuanyi and Li Hanrui entered the military tent, only to see Shen Wei and Zhang Han there. When they saw the person coming, they hurriedly saluted, "Second Young Master, uncle!"
Li Hanrui waved his hand, "Master Zhang, have you finished what my brother-in-law asked you to make?"
"It's ready!" Zhang Han pulled away the black cloth on the table and saw hundreds of parts, large and small, placed on it!
Zhao Xuanyi came over and took a closer look, and thought that this piece of Han was really thoughtful. There were only a dozen or so screws, just in case of emergency. The bow body and bow strings were all included. After Zhao Xuanyi saw it, he was very satisfied!
"Master Zhang, start assembling!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Yes!" Zhang Han glanced at his apprentices and said, "Start assembling!"
"yes!"
Several people got busy, Zhao Xuanyi was directing from the side. An hour later, the bow was finally assembled. Zhao Xuanyi held it in his hand. Because the bow body was also made of steel, it was very heavy. Zhao Xuanyi tried to pull the bowstring. Although it was difficult, it was still possible. It can be pulled!
Zhao Xuanyi gave the bow to Li Hanrui, "Second brother, go out and try shooting an arrow!"
Li Hanrui is very excited. Whether you succeed or not depends on you! Walking out of the military tent, came to the school field, went to see the arrows, opened the bow and shot out an arrow [Whoosh... Bang! 】
Li Hanrui's eyes widened. Seeing this result, Li Hanrui was frightened. "How is this possible?"
When the sun was shining brightly at noon, Li Yukun was sitting in the study reading, while Liu Wuxia was sitting aside, holding a handkerchief and doing embroidery. Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and then Li Hanrui ran into the study, full of people. The excitement on the face!
Li Yukun was surprised to see Li Hanrui so happy, "Hanrui, why are you so happy?"
"Dad, come on, my brother-in-law has made the best bow in the world, come and see!" Li Hanrui shouted excitedly.
"What?" Li Yukun threw the book aside, then got up and ran out!
Everyone came to the martial arts training yard. Zhao Xuanyi took the bow and gave it to Li Hanyan. "Don't you want to see my best bow in the world? Come and try it!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a proud face.
Li Hanyan took it over and looked at this strange bow. Was this the bow he made without telling her? it's wired!
"Here is the bow handle, and here is the bow string. What do you want from...?"
Li Hanyan glared at Zhao Xuanyi, "You think I can't use you?"
Zhao Xuanyi shut up obediently and thought to himself, "If you can, I'll see what you say later?"
Li Yukun came to the yard and saw Li Hanyan holding a newly made bow. This strange look made Li Yukun very confused: "Son-in-law, is this the bow you made?"
When everyone saw Li Yukun coming, they hurriedly saluted, "Father-in-law!"
Li Yukun waved his hand, "No need, come, let me take a look!" Li Yukun took the Tianyi Bow, looked at it carefully, and thought to himself, this doesn't look like a bow either? The shape is curved, with two discs on top and bottom, and the bowstring is still on the discs. What is this?
"Father-in-law, ask Han Yan to shoot an arrow, and you will know!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"Okay! Girl, give it a try!" Li Yukun handed it to Li Hanyan.
Li Hanyan took it over, took an arrow, put it on the bowstring, and pulled it hard. She immediately felt something was wrong, because the strength of the bowstring was very small, not as strong as one-third of the pulling force of her own bow, but the upper and lower metal But the disc also started to rotate, and the entire bow seemed very weak!
Li Hanyan aimed at the wooden target and shot instantly [Whoosh... Bang! ] There was a loud noise, and the wooden archery target was instantly shattered. The archery target exploded from the middle, and the round archery target split into two halves, as if it had been struck by an axe!
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked. Is this power real or fake? Li Hanyan looked at the Tianyi Bow in her hand. Is it really so powerful? Could it be that the wooden rake is too old? "Qinglian, get a new target!"
"Yes!" Qinglian passed a new wooden rake.
Li Hanyan shot an arrow again [Bang! 】The result is still the same, the wooden rake was split in half by the arrow! Li Hanyan looked at the Tianyi Bow in her hand with disbelief, how could this be possible?
Li Yukun was also shocked. He hurriedly took the Tianyi Bow and inspected it carefully. "Is this true? Another wooden rake!"
Another piece was replaced, and Li Yukun shot the arrow himself. When the arrow shattered the wooden rake, Li Yukun finally believed that it was true. He held the Tianyi bow in his hand very lovingly and turned to look at Zhao Xuanyi: "Son-in-law, you know you Did you do anything? This is really the best bow in the world!"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled very proudly, "It takes half the power of your bows and arrows, but more than doubles the power. This is the benefit of the Tianyi Bow! By the way, bring the Jurchen tribe's leather armor and see if you can hit it." !”
"Yes, yes! Bring the leather armor quickly and let's try it!" Li Yukun said excitedly.
Fixing the leather armor on the wooden stake, Li Yukun opened the bow and arrow, and instantly released [Whoosh...pop! Crash...! 】I saw that the arrow penetrated the leather armor, and the iron sand inside was constantly remaining on the ground!
When everyone saw this scene, they all applauded. Li Yukun looked at the strange-shaped bow and arrow in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, "Okay, okay! This is a magic weapon! Is this...?"
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Xuanyi took the Tianyi Bow back. Zhao Xuanyi put it in his hand and looked at it, "Not bad, although it's a little worse than expected, but it's still usable!"
Before Li Yukun had cherished it enough, he was taken away. It was as if he had lost his treasure. "Son-in-law, what about you? How many more days are you going to let your father-in-law play with? Let your father-in-law have fun!"
Zhao Xuanyi turned to look at his father-in-law who loved weapons, and smiled slightly: "Father-in-law, don't worry, I have promised my father that I will show it to him after I make it, and I plan to sell this Tianyi Bow!"
"Sold? To whom?" Li Yukun asked.
"Who is the general guarding the Jurchen tribe?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
Shen Wei hurriedly walked up and said, "General of the Far East, Tang Wujie!"
"Oh, yes, that's this person. He must be in great need of my Tianyi Bow!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
Li Yukun stomped his feet angrily, "Son-in-law, how can you sell such a good thing? Aren't you a prodigal? Besides, you are my son-in-law, Li Yukun! You can't let the wealth go to other people?"
"Does father-in-law mean to buy it?" Zhao Xuanyi asked with a smile.
"I...buy my own things? Me?" Li Yukun thought to himself, this is a master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't let go of hawks. If you hold him steady for the time being, who will make you like him? "How many taels of silver do you plan to sell it for?"
Zhao Xuanyi smiled slightly and stretched out a finger, "Ten thousand taels!"
"What?" Li Yukun shouted and almost died on the spot!
