Chapter 70 The craftsman is high and far-reaching
"Oh, young man, I am already a person who is about to fall into the soil. If you meet you in your twilight years, it is also considered that you and I have a fate. Well, I will tell you all."
The old man put the empty bowl on the broken table, wiped his mouth, and then bent down to press his right calf.
With the help of the extremely dim light in the house, Huang Shang noticed that the old man's right calf was tied very high, and he wrapped the calf tightly with a thin rope under his knee. The old man's right calf seemed to be swollen particularly severely.
"My family was originally Jianning Pass in Huatian Kingdom. Speaking of which, Jianning Pass is extremely famous in Huatian Kingdom, but few people know about it here. When I was young, my father led me and my family to Huangzhou Prefecture due to an accident."
"There is a reason to say that I settled in Huangzhou Prefecture. Later, my father mentioned that at that time, the Daxi Kingdom was almost a place for barbarians, and was extremely backward in all aspects, and was completely different from the cultures of other countries around. Only Huangzhou Prefecture is close to Ulan and Nandan Kingdoms. The life, food, customs and customs here are no different from other countries."
"So when my father came to Huangzhou Prefecture, he decided to settle down in Luohetang. The reason was no different. My father was just a craftsman."
The old man seemed to be completely trapped in memories, and his turbid eyes began to have a slight bright color.
After living alone for a long time, a stranger finally came today. Being able to listen to him telling his story with peace of mind was also a great comfort for the old man. Huang Shang did not interrupt him. He understood human loneliness very well. He had been escaping and walking in the mountains and forests these days, and he was also very lonely.
The only thing Huang Shang needs to do is listen carefully, while maintaining a cheetah-like vigilance, and being alert to the movements outside the house. Now he has been being pursued. Although the Nandan Kingdom cannot pursue him across countries, he is still a person who is being pursued even in Daxi Kingdom.
"My father was originally a craftsman of the Huatian Kingdom's palace and had excellent casting skills. As for why he left Huatian Kingdom and came here, I don't want to say more, although these reasons were only known later."
"You probably know why several countries on this road can dominate one side or stand on this continent for hundreds of years? In addition to their strong national strength and the wisdom of the national monarch, there is another most important reason, that is, weapons."
weapon!
When Huang Shang heard this, his heart skipped a beat. Although he lived in Huangjia Village since he was a child and knew very little about the outside world, who are not a person who has been through battles and has been fighting for a long time?
What Huang Shang has been exposed to since childhood is the influence of the battles on the battlefield. Almost every old man will explain to Huang Shang the story of his battles in the past, as well as various interesting stories on the battlefield, as well as various military tactics, weapons and weapons. This is also the reason why Huang Shang did not refuse when Old Man Long gave him the book on Tianmen last time.
Moreover, due to the influence of the old people since childhood, Huang Shang's understanding of Tianmen Book was extremely fast, and he had already mastered the situation and timing of various battlefield situations. Now his fault is to go to the battlefield for training, although he himself hoped that it would be better not to have the chance to go to the battlefield in his life.
Since ancient times, the battlefield has been a place where passionate men's blood boils, but it is not a snowy night, but a corpse piled up like mountains and blood flowing into rivers. It is the cruelest and most inhumane place on this continent.
"There are countless types of weapons in the world. Just as the common weapons on the battlefield, there are more than ten types of weapons, including swords, guns, swords, axes, whips, maces, hammers, guns, halberds, bows, etc. Among them, guns, halberds, sticks, etc. are long weapons, while swords, swords, axes, maces, hammers, and sticks are short weapons."
When the old man talked about these weapons, he became much more energetic and talked endlessly. It was obvious that the old man was extremely familiar with these weapons.
"Old man's surname?" Huang Shang asked respectfully while the old man was resting.
"Well, my husband's surname is Gao and his name is far-reaching. Where are you, little kid?" Old man Gao obviously had a good impression of the polite young man in front of him.
"Mr. Gao, the younger generation's surname is Hu, and the single name is a new word."
Huang Shang suddenly remembered that when he was in the Anding Site, he was asked about his name by the beggar. He was panicked and randomly fabricated the name Hu Sheng. Although he later made up another Ye Hu in Wugong Temple, the name was known by Daxiguo and could not be used anymore.
"Well, of course there are shields or rattan cards, and there are also bows and crossbows."
"A variety of weapons have many differences according to their functions and shapes. Take the bow as an example. The king's bow and arc bow are mainly used for defending cities and chariot battles, clamping bows, thin bows are used for hunting in fields and shooting birds, Tang's bows and large bows are used for shooting. The size of the bow is also divided into upper bows, middle bows and lower bows according to the user's length and physical strength."
"Little kid, I think your bow should be a clamped bow, not a strong bow, so I knew you were a hunter, not a soldier as soon as you came in."
Gao Shenyuan looked at Zhuifeng Gong who was placed by Huang Shang’s door and said.
"In my good eyes, I am a hunter. I have been lost in the mountains these days to come to your place."
Gao Shenyuan smiled slightly, without refuting him, but just lowered his head and grabbed the stack of herbs next to him, rubbed them into juice with both hands and pressed them all on his right calf.
In fact, Huang Shang also knew that he did not tell this lie well. One reason was that hunters rarely get lost, and the other reason was that since they were hunters, why didn’t there be any prey in hand?
"Old man, what about your leg?" Huang Shang pointed to Gao Shenyuan's right calf and asked.
"It's okay. There are poisonous mosquitoes and flies everywhere in the mountains and fields, and they are occasionally bitten by accident." The old man shook his head helplessly and said.
"Since I was bitten, why don't the elderly go to see a doctor or find some herbs?" Huang Shang said. Judging from the elderly's injuries, it may have been more than a few days.
"Oh, from here I go down the mountain and go to Luochu Town, I have to have fifteen or sixteen miles of mountain roads. How can I go? I have to get some herbs and dress them by myself."
Huang Shang thought that he would go to the town of Hammer and would give the old man some medicine to come back, and the faster the better, otherwise if he delayed, the old man would have a big problem with his legs.
"Young man, you are also strong and strong. Although the bow is a good bow, do you know why this famous strong bow in the world?" The old man obviously did not want to talk too much about his injuries, but instead took the initiative to bring the topic to weapons. This may be related to his identity as a craftsman.
Seeing Huang Shang shook his head, Gao Shenyuan sighed deeply and said.
"If you want to say that the world is the best, maybe I don't know it either, but when my father was in Huatian Kingdom, he got a bow, called the Divine Arm Bow. This bow is six feet and three inches long. He uses a different wood as his body and a tough silk as his opening. He cannot open it unless it is strong. At that time, he cannot open it."
