Although Wang Laoni's face is covered with ravines and wind and frost, even though the ravines are deep and the wind and frost are particularly heavy, they still cannot block his eyes as clear as water.
As long as a person has obsessions and addictions, there will always be an eternal light in his eyes.
But then again, when this person was born, there was always light in his eyes, but the light later slowly went out, went out, and disappeared...
What Wang Laoni is obsessed with is the Luban Mechanism Technique passed down from generation to generation by the Luban sect.
"Prepare for me a stove, a pile of fine sand, ten kilograms of fine iron, ten bamboos and a bellows." Wang Laoni walked around Yan Zhuo's imitation flying ball, "That's all for now, if you can
Prepare three more tarps for me, I want to try something new."
Wang Erhu listened with disdain to what Wang Laoni said. He stared at Laoni and felt that he was no different from the carpenters in the village, except that his waist was a little straighter and his body was stronger.
As he was thinking this way, Wang Zhanjin on the side shouted: "Erhu, you are deaf. You didn't hear Senior Wang's instructions. You are still waiting for me and the general to get you something."
Wang Erhu was startled and said "Oh" in a hurry. He certainly looked down upon Wang Laoni, but he still respected Yan Zhuo and Wang Zhanjin. He took off and hurried towards the blacksmith shop.
Taking advantage of the time to prepare things, Yan Zhuo chatted with Wang Laoni again.
"Senior, the flying ball I imitated looks no different from the flying ball in Baiyun Villa. Why can't it fly?" Yan Zhuo asked.
Wang Laoni smiled and didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "The reason why this flying ball can fly is all because of the hot air. It can only fly when there is enough hot air. You can't generate such a big lift just by relying on charcoal and kerosene.
Your bamboo basket is not strong, so you have to tie the bottom of the basket with beef tendons and fix two bamboo strips to make it stable."
Wang Zhanjin on the side also asked curiously: "How can we generate enough lift?"
Wang Laoni narrowed his eyes and smiled, and said: "One of the ways to generate lift is to expand the balloon, so that the balloon of the flying ball can store more heat to drive it into the air. The second is to reach a higher altitude in a short time
temperature, releasing more heat.”
When Yan Zhuo heard what Wang Laoni said, he frowned, and suddenly a light flashed in his eyes, and he said, "So, senior, you just asked for the bellows, do you want to use the bellows to increase the temperature?"
Wang Laoni raised his eyes and looked at Yan Zhuo, his eyebrows and eyes were all curved into a smile: "The general is really a man of the people, he can make sense when he talks about it, but the bellows still needs to be modified, and the brazier for putting fuel
It also needs to be changed.”
Yan Zhuo nodded and said with a smile: "It's one thing for a junior to guess, but if you really want to do it, you still have to fumble for a long time. If you understand it with your head, you may not understand it with your hands."
Wang Laoni also smiled: "General, what you said casually is the ancestral motto of my Luban sect - don't be too ambitious and too weak. This is the most taboo thing for us craftsmen."
"Actually, this is true not only for craftsmen, but also for military arts, martial arts, etc."
"That's not true, General!" Wang Laoni's face darkened, "If this craftsman has a good eye but a weak hand, the worst he can do is break one thing. The martial arts people who practice martial arts have a good eye but a weak hand, and at worst, it will destroy his own life. A general who commands an army, if he is in
On the battlefield, if you have a strong eye but a weak hand, you will lose troops and generals, cede territory to pay compensation, and lose power and humiliate the country. The paper-talking Zhao Kuo is an example."
Yan Zhuo was stunned when he heard this. Looking at the old man in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a hint of admiration in his heart: "Senior's lesson is that I must keep it in mind."
"There's no need to teach you a lesson. The old man just said some crazy things."
After that, Wang Erhu also came back with the purchased things.
Wang Laoni nodded as he looked at the prepared things, and set up the stove first. The fine iron, fine sand, bellows, and bamboo tubes were also arranged neatly: "General, please take the two military masters around first."
, I will mobilize twenty blacksmiths in the city to this open space in the evening, and I will be able to build fifty flying balls in two days."
Fifty flying balls?
Wang Zhanjin was stunned and asked quickly: "How many people can sit in that flying ball?"
"Ten people at most." Wang Laoni replied.
"Ah, ten people? Then these fifty flying balls are only five hundred people. How can these five hundred people do it?" Wang Zhanjin said anxiously, "There are tens of thousands of Japanese bandits in Zhenhai City. These few
It would take a hundred flying balls."
Wang Laoni was not polite and said: "It will take seven days to make a hundred flying balls."
"Seven days? How come it takes two days for fifty and seven days for one hundred?" Wang Zhanjin glared with a pair of bull's eyes, anxious and angry.
"In the past two days, these twenty blacksmiths have worked day and night to make fifty flying balls. If they were to make a hundred flying balls, the craftsmen would have to rest for two days at least." Wang Laoni said.
"This..." Wang Zhanjin wanted to say more, but was stopped by Yan Zhuo.
"Fifty flying balls are enough. As long as these five hundred people can sneak into Zhenhai City quietly, I have a 60% chance of capturing Zhenhai!"
Wang Zhanjin was stunned: "What? With five hundred people, you are 60% sure of taking Zhenhai? The wall of Zhenhai City is stronger than Lianjiang. If these five hundred people get in, no one from the outside can get in. With these five hundred people, you can't get in."
But it's like putting a piece of fat in the mouth of a Japanese thief, and the flying ball relies on flames to generate heat, so the Japanese thief can be found even at night. How could he sneak into Zhenhai silently? You just said you couldn't.
You have high vision but low power, how come you have forgotten all about it now?"
Yan Zhuo looked at the angry Wang Zhanjin and patted his shoulder gently: "This Zhenhai town is not the same as the sea. I will bring people in. Five hundred people in my hands will be enough for the Japanese bandits in Zhenhai city."
Turn the world upside down."
"You can stir up chaos in Zhenhai City, but the five hundred people who went in with you are not as good at martial arts as you, and they don't have the ability to turn things around like you do."
Seeing that the two of them were arguing, Wang Laoni waved his hand and said: "In addition to this flying ball, I actually have another treasure - the umbrella kite."
"What is an umbrella kite?" Wang Zhanjin said quickly.
Wang Laoni took out a drawing from his pocket, with something similar to a mushroom drawn on it: "This is the Umbrella Kite. This Umbrella Kite is made of tarpaulin, with hemp ropes tied at both ends. People hold it.
Then you can jump from high altitude to the ground safely."
Wang Zhanjin looked at the drawing and listened to what Wang Laoni said, and asked: "Did you invent this? Have you tried it?"
Wang Laoni said: "I dare not say it is an invention. It is said that Shun used two bamboo hats to escape from the granary. This is the prototype of the umbrella kite. I just modified it based on the predecessors. As for whether I have tried it - I
I have tried it with cattle and sheep, but this person hasn’t tried it yet.”
“What about cattle and sheep?”
Wang Laoni's eyes shone: "It's okay, they all landed smoothly."
Yan Zhuo nodded and said: "In this way, we are 70-80% sure of capturing Zhenhai City."
After hearing this, Wang Laoni said again: "It's just that the limbs of this beast are tied by me, so they won't struggle out of fear. It's just that this man jumped from the sky, so he will inevitably feel fear in his heart. He's just afraid that his hands and feet will be in panic."
, the parachute rope is entangled..."
Wang Zhanjin smiled slyly and said, "Wouldn't it be better to find someone to jump off in public? Mr. Wang, have you never tried it yourself?"
Wang Laoni narrowed his eyes into his folds and said with a smile: "I'm ashamed to say that I'm afraid of heights. It's okay to sit on the flying ball. I'm afraid that before I even hit the ground, I'll meet the King of Hell with a handful of old bones."
"Then this Umbrella Kite..." Before Wang Zhanjin finished speaking, Wang Feihu opened his mouth and said, "Let me try it. There is a cliff a hundred feet high in Wugong Mountain outside Lianjiang City, and there is a deep lake under the cliff. It is just right."
"It's better for me to do it. Just try it on the Lianjiang City Wall. Outside the wall is the river. I have a way to make myself lighter. It won't hurt if I fall into the water." Yan Zhuo said.
Wang Zhanjin also said at the side: "Er Hu, don't be stunned. We have to let the general handle this matter. He has good skills on his feet. If you fall from a hundred-foot cliff, you won't faint. The general has a hard head."
Yan Zhuo rolled his eyes at Wang Zhanjin, looked at Wang Laoni and said, "Senior, I don't know how difficult it is to make this umbrella kite. Let's hurry up and try it."
Wang Laoni waved his hand and said: "It's simple, it happens in the blink of an eye." After saying something, he pulled up a tarp, put a copper ring on each corner of the tarp, and then put another copper ring in the middle of the tarp.
, the hemp rope passes alternately through the five copper rings.
In the blink of an eye, an umbrella kite was handed to Yan Zhuo's eyes.
