Zhang Liang felt that the danger had been lifted, but Jin Feng felt that the danger had escalated.
Although the bandits talk about loyalty every day, if something goes wrong, who is willing to stand up for an unfamiliar "brother"?
The so-called blood debt must be repaid with blood, just to maintain Shantou's face and prestige, and he had to stand up for the dead gang members.
No bandit would really risk his life for someone he doesn't know well for the sake of brotherhood.
If there is such a person, he will not live long.
But it's different when there's a life-long friendship.
If the relationship between the second boss and the bald head is really as good as Zhang Liang said, if he knows that the bald head died at the hands of Jin Feng, he will definitely come to Jin Feng to fight for his life.
Therefore, Jin Feng would rather be an ordinary Maomaoshan bandit with a bald head than form a deadly feud with the second master.
This news further strengthened Jin Feng's determination to become stronger.
"Brother Liang, can you try to see if you can use my bow and arrow smoothly?"
Jin Feng took the crossbow from the wall and handed it to Zhang Liang.
A gang of three heroes can't fight against bandits, but they can't do it alone.
Jin Feng saw Zhang Liang coming in last night with a murderous look on his face. When he was building a shed today, he casually asked Orion about it.
Orion told him that Zhang Liang wanted to kill Xie Guang.
Through this incident, Jin Feng judged that Zhang Liang really regarded him as a family member.
At least I didn't mean to harm him.
So he wanted to train the Zhang brothers.
Zhang Mancang was a coward by nature and timid, but he was careful and conscientious in his work and could endure hardships, so he was a perfect fit for being a blacksmith.
And Zhang Liang once went to the battlefield. Although he was missing an arm, he dared to fight hard.
The two men of the Zhang family are both disabled, but they have been ignored in the village for the past few years, but no one dares to bully them openly, just because of Zhang Liang's existence.
Such a character, if cultivated, will be a very good partner.
If something unexpected happens in the future, you can have multiple helpers.
"Xiao Feng, my hands can't use this bow."
A hint of melancholy flashed across Zhang Liang's face, and he shook his head: "You can't wind the string with one hand."
"This can be changed. If you are comfortable with it, I can change it to other winding methods."
"What should I change it to?"
"It depends on your habits. You can push it with your chest or step on it with your feet."
Jin Feng said casually.
There are various types of crossbows in later generations, and there are also various ways of stringing them.
There are not many men who are not interested in weapons, let alone a guy like Zhang Liang who comes from the military.
When Jin Feng took out the crossbow for the first time, he wanted to borrow it to play with, but when he thought about missing an arm, he gave up the idea.
Hearing what Jin Feng said, he reached out his hand excitedly: "Bring it to me and try it!"
Jin Feng also had an injury on his hand, so he handed the crossbow to Zhang Mancang: "Mancang, please string it."
Although Zhang Liang had never used a crossbow, he often used a longbow when he was a soldier. He took the strung crossbow from Mancang, pointed it at the pillar of the blacksmith shop, and slowly pulled the trigger.
Whoosh!
The arrow flashed away.
Maybe it was the first time he used it, and Zhang Liang's ejaculation went wrong.
The arrow flew past the pillar and nailed to the earth wall with a hiss.
Most of the arrows, which were more than two feet long, did not penetrate the earthen wall!
"It's so powerful, no wonder it can kill a tiger!"
Zhang Liang exclaimed, and then said regretfully: "It's just that the accuracy is a bit difficult."
"Brother Liang, you are wrong. The biggest advantage of crossbows over longbows is that they are easier to aim."
Jin Feng pointed to a small bump on the top of the crossbow and said, "Next time you can use this bump to aim at the target and then do it."
"I will try again."
Zhang Liang couldn't wait to load Mancang again.
I have to say that Zhang Liang has a very good foundation.
Jin Feng only guided once, and Zhang Liang's next few shots all hit the wooden pillars.
"It's such a joy."
Zhang Liang tried eight or nine times before reluctantly returning the crossbow to Jin Feng: "Can the winding method really be changed?"
"It's okay if I say yes."
Jin Feng said: "When I change it, you can go hunting."
"hunt?"
Zhang Liang's eyes suddenly lit up.
Zhang's family has been through so much hardship these past few years, and he dreams of improving his family's life.
But what can he do if he is missing an arm?
He worked in the fields from dawn to dusk all year round. After deducting the taxes from the court and the annual grain from the bandits, what was left was not enough to feed the family.
But Jin Feng's proposal gave him hope.
"Fengzi, when can things be changed?"
Zhang Liang couldn't wait to go into the mountains.
He and Lin Yunfang have been married for several years, but they have never been pregnant. The county doctor said it was because Lin Yunfang's bones were too weak and needed to be replenished.
If you can hunt rabbits in the mountains, you might be able to have children.
My wife and I have not had a full meal in the past few years, so we need to make up for it...
Zhang Liang's heart was about to fly to the mountains.
"If Mancang learns quickly, he should be able to do it in a few days."
Jin Feng raised his injured hand and shook it.
"Full warehouse?"
Zhang Liang's thoughts flew back from the mountain: "What do you mean?"
"Brother, Brother Feng said that he should study hard and pass on his blacksmithing skills to me."
Mancang said naively.
"real?"
Zhang Liang was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes turned slightly red.
Jin Feng suggested that he be a hunter, and Zhang Liang was filled with gratitude and expectation. He did not refuse, nor did he think that doing so would take away Jin Feng's job.
After all, the land of Bashu is full of mountains, and no one can catch all the prey. Whether you can catch something or not depends entirely on your own ability.
Even the women in the village would go to the mountains to see if they could catch two snakes and make soup for their children.
There can be many hunters in Xihewan, but there can only be one blacksmith.
Now Jin Feng not only wants to help him modify the crossbow, but also wants to hand over the family skills to his younger brother?
This kindness is too great, no less than saving my own family.
"Don't worry, Fengzi. As long as you make me a usable bow, I will give you half of all the prey I hunt in the future!"
Zhang Liang patted his chest and said confidently: "From now on, you will study hard to get a good reputation. I guarantee that you and sister Xiaorou will not be hungry."
"Thank you, Brother Liang."
Jin Feng knew that since Zhang Liang said such words, he would definitely do it.
Jin Feng will always be grateful for the kindness of others, whether he needs it or not.
"If you want to thank you, we are the ones thanking you."
Zhang Liang said: "Mancang, you have to study hard and shoot the bow for me as soon as possible."
"Brother, you know I'm stupid and my hands are slow," Zhang Mancang said, "Why don't you stop going to the ground these days and let's do it together so we can go faster."
When Jin Feng heard this, he looked at Zhang Mancang in surprise.
I made a mistake before. Who said this kid was stupid? He was obviously very smart, okay?
Not only did he learn it by himself, but he also wanted to drag Zhang Liang to learn it together.
But Jin Feng didn't break it either.
Anyway, he was thinking of making a few more crossbows, preferably one for each of Guan Xiaorou, Tang Dongdong and Runniang.
Zhang Liang came over to help and it would be faster.
