In the innermost room of the blacksmith shop, all the apprentices seemed to have been kicked out by Kuang Baichi. The little old man was sitting in front of the wooden table very seriously, staring at the things on the wooden table.
Ye Qiong's curiosity had been aroused, so he stood on tiptoes and arrived behind Kuang Baichi as lightly as air.
After seeing what was in Kuang Baizhi's hand, Ye Qiong was immediately stunned. That thing...
It looked quite familiar, but because it was so long ago, Ye Qiong's own memory was a little blurry.
But what is certain is that the things in Kuang Baichi's hands came from his own hands.
The picture on the animal skin was drawn by me when I was a child.
It wasn't something too esoteric and difficult to understand, nor was it some kind of mechanical equipment blueprint, but it was a bit difficult for Jing Baichi to understand.
The thing painted on the animal skin is...
abacus!
A somewhat abstract calculation.
In the past, when the tribe only had a few hundred people, Kuang Baichi had another identity besides being the weapon maker of the tribe, that is, he was a carpenter!
After all, Kuang Baizhi's strong hands-on ability allowed him to carve some magical wood carvings from a very young age. There are wood carvings in the tribe that look very similar to the Snowy Demonic Wolf and the Long-tailed Bear, which were picked up by children. A toy that is considered a treasure.
Ye Qiong had previously thought about asking Kuang Baichi to make various things he drew into wood carvings, but Kuang Baichi didn't take it to heart at the time. He was older and had a high status in the tribe. At that time, the tribe migrated all year round. Kuang Baichi focused more on building and repairing weapons for the tribe's warriors. Ye Qiong saw this and had no choice but to give up. Slowly, Kuang Baichi accumulated hundreds of weapons in his hand. Animal skin drawings.
In fact, Ye Qiong could have drawn more, but unfortunately Kuang Baichi did not study it at the time, allowing Ye Qiong to focus more time and energy on martial arts practice.
At that time, Ye Qiong was in a period of confusion. In the first few years after arriving on Snow Planet, he was almost driven crazy by Snow Planet's disgusting and long winter. On the one hand, he wanted to develop technology as quickly as possible and put the things in his head away. They have it all, cars, airplanes, computers, mobile phones, etc. On the other hand, they have to face the cruel environment on the snow planet, so Ye Qiong must exercise hard...
The reality is cruel. After the beast tide attacked the tribe that year, Ye Qiong realized that many things could not be accomplished overnight and had to move forward step by step and slowly, so starting from that year, Ye Qiong stopped painting. Dong Dong devoted all his time and energy to martial arts practice and physical fitness, and directly entered a state of asceticism.
After so many years, Ye Qiong recalled the boring but fulfilling years of his childhood when he saw the animal skin drawings held by Kuang Baizhi and the stack piled on the wooden table. .
Until Ye Qiong walked to the wooden table, Kuang Baichi didn't realize that someone had entered the room. Kuang Baichi's temper was not very good. When he was studying things, the disciples did not dare to come in. Otherwise, they would inevitably get slapped in the face. After all, Kuang Baichi couldn't speak, so most of the time, he directly took action and picked up whatever gadgets were around him.
"Bang bang..."
Ye Qiong knocked on the wooden table gently, which would not scare the old man. Otherwise, Ye Qiong could have done it, and he would definitely scare Kuang Baichi so much that he jumped up from the wooden chair.
Kuang Baichi was disturbed from his thoughts, and turned around to enter a state of rage. However, after seeing clearly who the person was, his anger level was cleared in an instant.
"Aba...Aba..." Kuang Baizhi stood up immediately, holding the animal skin drawing in his hand, and smiled at Ye Qiong, as if he had discovered something interesting.
Ye Qiong took the animal skin drawing from Kuang Baichi's hand and looked at the abacus on it. He couldn't help but smile. Although the painting was quite rough, it was quite vivid. If Kuang Baichi could do this If you are willing to make it, it will be very meaningful for the mathematics education of the next generation of the tribe.
Speaking more broadly, after the abacus develops, it will become a computer.
The mathematical modeling and formulas of the atomic bomb can all be calculated manually using an abacus. Although it is only a small part, the role of the abacus is enough to see.
When communicating with Kuang Baizhi, most of them still have to rely on gestures and guesswork, but Ye Qiong has long been used to it. Looking at the drawings on the wooden table, Ye Qiong knew that Kuang Baizhi was now going to study those things and tasted the steam. After the sweetness of the wooden car, Kuang Baichi's fiery heart was ignited.
After his attention was diverted from the animal skin drawings, Kuang Baichi seemed to have thought of something. His eyes suddenly lit up and he looked under the wooden table.
"Aba..." As he said this, he waved his hand at Ye Qiong, signaling Ye Qiong to step back.
Ye Qiong immediately did as he was told. Seeing Kuang Baichi's posture and expression, his heart began to beat loudly. Every time Kuang Baichi's face showed that triumphant, if a bit arrogant, expression, Ye Qiong knew it. , I have something good again!
I was really looking forward to Kuang Baichi taking something out from under the wooden table at this moment.
Faintly, Ye Qiong could guess a little bit, but he couldn't be sure.
It has actually been a long time since Kuang Baichi made the bone crystal arrows. In such a long time gap, a new weapon must have been developed.
Seeing Kuang Baichi burrowing directly under the wooden table, Ye Qiong immediately took two steps forward, bent down and pulled out the wooden box that Kuang Baichi had tried to drag out.
After Kuang Baichi stood up, he curled his lips at Ye Qiong, a little unhappy: "Aba Aba..."
Ye Qiong immediately grinned: "You are not old, you are still very strong!"
After placing the wooden box on the table, Ye Qiong couldn't help being caught off guard. Judging from the length of the wooden box now, Ye Qiong knew that the weapons inside must be quite large, but they were far from what he thought. Length, there is still a little distance.
This is a wooden box with a length of about 1.5 meters and a width of about 30 centimeters. It looks very big. The only thing Ye Qiong can be sure of now is that it is very heavy. It is no wonder that Kuai Baizhi wanted to drag it out just now. It's a bit laborious every time.
As far as weapons are concerned, what Ye Qiong wants most right now is a long weapon.
But this kind of weapon, which is about 1.5 meters long, is only the length of a broadsword in the tribe. It is still far from what he wants. If it is not a long weapon, Ye Qiong is actually quite curious about it. My son could make Kuang Baichi introduce himself to him so excitedly.
After seeing Ye Qiong's expression, Kuang Baichi immediately laughed again. It seemed that he had guessed Ye Qiong's thoughts. He opened the wooden box in no hurry, stretched out his right hand, and patted the wooden box a few times. Then he slowly put his right hand on the handle on the wooden box.
