Chapter three hundred and seventy-six sailing(1/2)
Xue Wanchai and Fang Shuo made a small crossbow in front of Ding Yi. The small crossbow was completely handmade. It can be seen that Xue Wanchai still has some talents in manufacturing. It is hard to imagine that this old man in his seventies and eighty years has such dexterity.
hands.
Xue Wanchai built a small crossbow called the Eagle Strike Repeater. It has an automatic hanging mechanism and can fire three short arrows continuously. However, the range of this thing is not very long, and the effective distance is only about thirty meters.
.
The big-headed Fang Shuo is the guy who hides on the roof with his men, trying to plot against Ding Yi. This guy was born as a blacksmith and has some physical strength. He can hold a crossbow of more than 200 kilograms and launch it. If it weren't for Ding Yi
I had a premonition and sent out beetle puppets to detect in advance, and they might be able to catch the enemy.
This is a taciturn guy, and Ding Yi is somewhat interested in him. His craftsmanship is actually not very good, but he has a good brain. After all, Xue Wancai is old, and although his craftsmanship is still there, he has no potential.
"Okay, you can stop now." Ding Yi did not let the two of them finish making the Eagle Strike Repeater. Seeing their early operations was enough.
The two people stopped quickly. Ding Yi processed the semi-finished product they made in front of the two people.
The Eagle Strike Repeating Crossbow was originally just a simple offensive weapon, but Ding Yi added some formation mechanisms to this weapon, and each short arrow was also refined. Now this small crossbow
The power has been greatly improved, and the range has been increased by at least five or six times.
It was the evening of the day when the Fubon Mine was being rectified, and Xue Wancai's forces were also forcibly disbanded by Ding Yi. Originally, there was a guy nicknamed "Golden Leopard" in this mining area. Seeing that the momentum was not right, this guy ran away with his henchmen.
Ding Yi took Yang Jiabiao, Wu Qiang, Xue Wanchai and Fang Shuo back home.
The surrounding neighbors were shocked. The Wu brothers were great heroes. For most of the day, they worked non-stop to kill all the bad guys entrenched in Fubon Mine and disbanded the gangsters who bullied the big guys.
These simple villagers and neighbors were greatly moved. The door of Ding Yi's house was filled with gifts from people who came after hearing the news.
On their way home, people kept cheering for them.
Especially Yang Jiabiao was praised as a flower by the neighbors, and many older girls even looked at Yang Jiabiao...
However, the neighbors still didn't dare to approach them, after all, they also had two evil men, Xue Wancai and Fang Shuo, with them.
"From now on, you two will study with Wu Gang every day and become literate. Lao Cai will be the housekeeper of this mansion. You don't have to be cautious. I am a very talkative person. If you have any questions, you can ask me." Ding Yi returned to his residence and made arrangements.
.
Xue Wanchai raised his hand and asked: "Master Wu, old man, I only have one grandson, can you..."
Ding Yi interrupted him and said: "Your grandson is not a good guy. He has been bullying men and dominating women over the years. Let him go to the mine to dig ore for a few days and make a good transformation. When will he do it?"
Only if you can get rid of that problem can your grandfather and grandson be reunited."
Xue Wanchai had no choice but to accept Ding Yi's opinion.
In the evening, Yan Jingfeng and others rushed over. Only then did Xue Wanchai and the others realize that the entire Fubon Mine had been controlled by Ding Yi and the others. What was even more incredible was that Ding Yi was the boss of them all.
The main job of Wang Zhou and Zhou Xin was to create the One-horned Immortal puppet according to the drawings. Half of Yan Jingfeng's time was also spent on this.
Zhang Chi is responsible for the specific affairs of the mine, and Shi Kai is responsible for the smelting of the ore.
They are all cultivators, and their memory and ability to learn things are far beyond ordinary people.
However, none of these people had ever been exposed to puppetry. Ding Yi only gave them two books and did not teach them anything else.
No matter how much ordinary people in the Shenwu Empire have received basic education, if these cultivators who are halfway to become monks are asked to learn the puppetry technique, Yan Jingfeng's progress is far inferior to that of Ding Yi's brothers at Xuanzang Academy.
The only ones who have learned fairly well here are Zhou Xin and Wang Zhou. After all, they are younger and more agile in thinking, and can accept new things faster than Zhang Chi and others.
"Master Wu, if you let these ordinary people live here, do you want to teach them to become cultivators?" Wang Zhou said with a smile.
Ding Yi said: "Being a cultivator requires qualifications and talents, but you should not underestimate mortals."
Having said this, Ding Yi took out the small eagle strike crossbow.
"This is the design of Lao Cai and Da Tou, I made some slight improvements." Ding Yi said.
Wang Zhou took the small crossbow, loaded it with the short arrow Ding Yi handed over, unwrapped the bowstring, and pulled the trigger against the wall.
With a 'pop', most of the arrow's body penetrated the wall, leaving only the tail fin shaking violently on the stone wall.
"The effective range of this small crossbow is nearly two hundred meters. At close range, even cultivators cannot avoid it." Ding Yi introduced.
Wang Zhou stuck out his tongue and suddenly said: "If we equip a large number of these repeating crossbows, then..."
"Then your boy's dream of unifying the mirage will be realized." Yan Jingfeng said with a smile.
"Elder brother, please stop making fun of me all the time." Wang Zhou said a little embarrassed.
Ding Yi said: "You must know that the most terrifying thing in this world is not the mighty power of heaven and earth, nor the overwhelming power of cultivators, but this seemingly inconspicuous creativity. This creativity is not just ours.
Cultivators have it, but in fact, mortals and ordinary people have it. If you use your brain carefully, maybe one of your great inventions will change the course of history and change the whole world."
Zhou Xindao: "Master Wu, you are saying that if we can create a weapon that is a hundred or a thousand times more powerful than this small crossbow, we can easily leapfrog the challenge and change the whole world."
Everyone was also completely awakened by Zhou Xin's words. This kind of invention that ignored qualifications and talents was simply a shortcut to the south, and everyone was moved.
"Hahaha, I understand." Wang Zhou laughed so hard that tears flowed down his face.
‘Pfft’ Wang Zhou knelt down in front of Ding Yi.
"Master Wu, I only admired your strength at first, but I didn't really admire you. Now I finally understand that Master Wu, you have a big picture and a big vision, and your mind is far beyond what we and other small islanders can understand. This is true
The dragon-slaying technique! How lucky this disciple is to be able to worship under Master Wu’s name..."
Ding Yi was stunned. He didn't expect that he was the first to wake up and understand his plan.
It wasn't until this moment that the others woke up and understood.
Wang Zhou has strong political ambitions, and unifying the mirage is his dream. He knows very well that Ding Yi is the kind of person who seeks the road. He is just a preacher at best. Ding Yi's thoughts and ideas are ultimately
It must be realized in the hands of these disciples.
At this time, Zhou Xin also completely understood.
At this time, Ding Yi no longer concealed anything. He asked Wang Zhou to get up.
"This world is so vast. Beyond the mirage is the Ocean of Storms. Beyond the Ocean of Storms is the Sky Crystal Continent, the Giant Rock Continent, the Black Iron Continent, and the Blue Pole Continent... My life has limits, but my knowledge has no limits. I am just a small mirage.
Compared to those continents, the sea is nothing more than a pond. Is this your ideal? In the far north, there is a Shenwu Empire. This empire governs four continents, and its area is a thousand times that of Fulong Kingdom.
Ten thousand times, with more than a million cultivators among them, it is the first empire in history!"
"You can't imagine the power displayed by the army of thousands of cultivators... You settle in a corner, dominate this small place, and imagine that you are the strongest person under the starry sky. In fact, this is very ridiculous.
"
"This formation technique, mechanism technique, and weapon refining technique may seem like minor techniques at first glance, but if you put them together and use your ingenuity and wisdom to invent and create, they can burst out infinite power! Dare to make the world change color, dare to compete with the sun and the moon
Hui! If you are really successful in cultivation, one person can be worth ten thousand people, even if it is the strongest country under the starry sky, you can change your life!"
"My dragon-slaying technique cannot be learned by anyone without a strong character or great perseverance. It is all-encompassing and contains the principles of heaven and earth. It has all kinds of magic and magical powers in the world of cultivation."
"It is very easy to get started with this Taoist method. Even a young man like Wu Qiang with no qualifications or talent can learn it. However, it is extremely difficult to advance. He not only needs to have extensive knowledge, but also has an agile heart."
All the disciples shouted: "Disciple is willing to learn."
Ding Yi smiled and said: "I have already taught you the Dharma. You should study these two classics carefully." After saying that, he ignored everyone and went straight to the bedroom.
Back in the bedroom, Ding Yi calmed down. He took out the Qianji Change, which was a gift given to him by Zong Xiao. He would take it out every day and try to activate it. However, with his current spiritual power, it was not enough to activate it.
.This secret treasure of the puppet system is just a shiny metal ball in appearance, but it has its own universe inside. Ding Yi used his spiritual power to sense it for a while, but nothing changed.
After all, this is a Xuan-level secret treasure, and my current spiritual power is still far behind.
After putting away the Thousand Machines, he took out another universal puppet. This was the one he came to the Fubon Mine to refine again. The original two universal puppets were still left on Pig Cage Island.
Ding Yi had many cultivation items, spiritual stones, and potions on hand. He started refining again...
Almost every day or two, Ding Yi would go back to Pig Pen Island. Yan Jingfeng's main task now was to take care of Fubon Mine. Pig Pen Island was their foundation, and he had to come back and check it out from time to time.
Ding Yi did not directly teach his disciples how to make the One-Horned Fairy Puppet. He let them explore and try everything on their own.
For those who have never been exposed to formations and mechanism techniques, sometimes failure is the best teacher.
It took almost a month for Yan Jingfeng and the others to finally create the Unicorn Puppet. The main reason for their failure was that the array plate and array base proportions were wrong. These guys, during the production process, the sizes of various workpieces
They often make mistakes. One month is enough for them to learn a lot of basic knowledge about machine skills.
But when Ding Yi actually went to inspect their results, he discovered that the unicorn puppets made by these guys were more than ten times larger than the puppets sold in Xintiandi.
Ding Yi circled around the one-horned fairy puppet and carefully looked at the formation base, formation plate and mechanical parts.
There is nothing wrong with the whole one-horned fairy puppet, but once here, Ding Yi will start formal teaching for these fledgling puppet masters.
The first is the classification of items. Ding Yi gave detailed descriptions of various mechanical parts, telling them the purpose of each workpiece, its placement, and instructions for using various tools and appliances. He took the trouble to give everyone a demonstration.
The second step is to emphasize the unification of size and measurement. Ding Yi taught them the basic skills of reading pictures and drawing.
The other one is the procedure for making and producing puppets, how to coordinate steps, reasonable division of labor, etc. when working together.
Ding Yi took matters into his own hands and demonstrated to them how to produce a unicorn puppet. After each of these people made a unicorn puppet independently, Ding Yi took out the second drawing.
This is a drawing for making a car puppet. This is the first generation of car puppet produced by Xintiandi. It is estimated that these guys have been busy for more than half a month.
Zhang Chi sent six unicorn puppets to the mine, and he personally demonstrated how to operate them. As soon as these powerful unicorn puppets entered the mine, they showed extremely extraordinary abilities. Machinery is of course better than manual labor.
It’s amazing, the output that day broke the record.
But this is just the beginning. Fang Shuo and Xue Wanchai have already begun to look for clever people among the miners. The structure of the puppet workshop has begun to slowly spread...
Yang Jiabiao is the agent promoted by cultivators like them in Fubon Mine. This 'heroic figure' has great influence in Fubon Mine, and the affairs of the mine are now gradually being transferred to him.
To be continued...
