"First of all, it's the geographical environment."
"Many places in Dazhao and Jiaozhi have deep forests and few people. Rotten leaves can submerge your thighs. When you encounter such places, you must stay away, because such places can easily produce a toxic mist!"
"In addition, there are many poisonous insects in the south. You must be careful when camping in the wild at night. It is best to ask the locals for some insect repellent powder and sprinkle it around."
"The second thing is culture and language."
"It's fine in Dazhao and Jiaozhi. The team going to Tianzhu must pay attention. There are many religions there. If you see other people's behavior or clothing different from ours, you must not make random comments, let alone point fingers!"
"When you get to Dazhao, it's best to find a few people who are familiar with the language and terrain of Jiaozhi and Tianzhu as guides."
…
Jin Feng stood on the high platform, holding the list he had made, reminding one by one what to pay attention to when going to the big call.
The escorts below also listened carefully.
After saying the precautions, Jin Feng turned to look at Mancang standing aside: "Hand out the saber."
Since Mancang arrived in Xichuan, he has been building a new steel workshop on the bank of Jinma River.
This workshop is more advanced than Xihewan. In order to keep it confidential, the location is very remote. It is surrounded by steep mountains on three sides. The only way to enter is by water.
The workers were also specially selected by Zhou Youda.
The powerful people were making such a fuss some time ago that work at the Jinma River construction site did not stop.
Mancang came out of the mountain after receiving a message from Jin Feng today.
"Bring the saber over here!"
Mancang waved to the side, and a dozen big men walked out.
Two people were carrying a bamboo basket containing sabers.
The big men carried bamboo baskets and began to distribute.
Not only the bodyguards, but also the people brought by Ninth Princess and Qing Xinyao each had a handful.
"Sir, did you make a new knife again?"
Qing Mulan couldn't help but be curious and ran over to get a handful.
Produced by Jinfeng, it must be a high-quality product.
Ninth Princess and Qing Xinyao also turned to look over.
The new saber is the same as the black sword, all black, but it is not as long as the black sword, and it is only about thirty centimeters including the handle.
When I pulled out the saber, I found that one side had a blade and the other side had serrations.
There is also a piece of glass inlaid on the handle of the knife, and there is a small needle rotating back and forth under the glass.
"Sir, you really put in the effort this time. All the mirrors made of water jade are installed!"
Qing Mulan pointed at the glass and sighed: "This piece of water jade should be worth a lot if you take it off!"
"My husband is a practical person. He definitely did not install this mirror for decoration."
The ninth princess shook her head and said.
"If it's not for decoration, what else could it be for?"
"You'll find out soon."
The Ninth Princess looked at Jin Feng on the stage with expectant eyes.
Sure enough, after the big men finished distributing the sabers, Jin Feng opened his robe.
There was also a similar saber tied to his leg.
"This saber is specially designed by me for survival in the wild. It can be tied to the leg, arm, or waist. This way it will not fall easily and it will be more convenient when drawing the sword."
Hearing this, Qing Mulan picked up the scabbard of the saber and took a look, and sure enough she found four holes that could be used to string ropes.
After explaining the scabbard, Jin Feng took the saber out from his leg. He first pointed at the serrations on the back of the knife and said, "I won't explain much about these serrations. They have no other function. They are just used as saws."
After finishing speaking, he pointed to the water jade on the handle of the knife: "Have you seen this piece of water jade and the small needle inside? This is not for looking good."
Hearing this, the Ninth Princess raised the corners of her mouth slightly and raised her eyebrows at Qing Mulan.
Qing Mulan curled her lips and asked, "What's that for? Is it for them to seize it and sell it for emergency money when they encounter difficulties?"
Many escorts laughed when they heard this.
Jin Feng did not laugh, but nodded seriously: "This is also one of its functions. Nothing is as important as your own life. If you encounter difficulties and can exchange jade for money, then don't be reluctant to part with it. Just exchange it if you need to.
.”
When the escorts heard what Jin Feng said, their faces became serious.
The Ninth Princess and the people Qing Xinyao found all looked grateful.
Now that the reputation of water jade has spread, such a small piece of water jade can definitely be sold for a large sum of money.
But Jin Feng handed it over to them without hesitation.
This made them feel Jin Feng's trust.
"What Mu Lan just said is not the greatest use of water jade."
Jin Feng ignored the thoughts of everyone in the audience and continued: "The biggest function of this piece of water jade is the small needle underneath it."
"A small needle?" Qing Mulan lowered his head: "What is the use of this small needle?"
"Everyone, please flatten the hilt of the knife."
Jin Feng demonstrated on the stage: "This little needle is called a compass. When it stops, it will always point south."
"real or fake?"
Qing Mulan's eyes widened and she quickly imitated Jin Feng's example and straightened the handle of the knife.
Ninth Princess and Qing Xinyao rushed up.
Even Qin'er couldn't help but look over.
The little needle slowly stopped, and the red end was indeed facing the south.
"Oh my god, it's really pointing to the south. This is amazing!"
Qing Mulan looked at Jin Feng in disbelief: "Sir, how did you do it?"
"Do not ask!"
The Ninth Princess quickly stopped Qing Mulan and shook her head at Jin Feng.
Whether you are rushing in the wild or marching to fight, being able to clearly identify the direction is of great help.
Therefore, in Jin Feng's previous life, the compass was called one of the four great inventions.
The Ninth Princess had already begun to figure out how to use the compass.
How can such technology be made public?
If Jin Feng had discussed it with her earlier, the Ninth Princess might not have let Jin Feng put the compass on the saber.
It's a pity that this saber was made by Mancang in a new workshop. It was the first time it was shown in public. The bodyguards were not equipped yet, so the Ninth Princess didn't know about it beforehand.
At this moment, the Ninth Princess had the urge to take back her saber and take down the compass.
But in the end I suppressed the idea.
Because Jin Feng had already sent the saber down, if she ordered it to be taken back, Jin Feng's prestige among the bodyguards would be compromised.
Jin Feng originally wanted to explain the principle of the compass, but when he saw the ninth princess shaking her head, he gave up the idea.
The compass looks magical, but its principle is simple and easy to copy.
If it spreads to Dangxiang or Khitan, wouldn't it be an enemy?
Although Dangxiang and Khitan will discover it sooner or later, it will only be one day late.
Jin Feng didn't explain, so the escorts naturally didn't dare to ask further questions.
Qing Mulan, Ninth Princess and others all thought that the compass and serrations were the biggest differences of this saber, but they saw Jin Feng unscrewing the handle again.
"There is a small mechanism on the handle of this knife. You can twist and pull it to open it."
Jin Feng tilted the handle of the knife and poured the contents into his hand.
The Ninth Princess wanted to take back the saber even more strongly.
Each of Jin Feng's inventions can be called a treasure, and she saw that Jin Feng had quite a few of them in his hands!
Qing Mulan didn't think too much, and imitated Jin Feng's example, pouring the things into her hands, and then looked at Jin Feng expectantly.
