Chapter 2013 Faults in the Module
I feel bad.
Liu Xing looked at the special projectiles in his hand and couldn't help but start to get entangled, because he only had ten special projectiles in a short period of time, which meant that if he lost one, he would lose one. Maybe in this martial arts module No refills can be made until the end.
The most important thing is that the combination of this Warcraft slingshot and special projectiles can completely make up for Liu Xing's original lack of damage, because if Liu Xing used the ordinary slingshot that came with him before, the damage in one battle round might only be two to three points. , maybe even a monkey can't be defeated, but now the damage in one battle round has a chance to reach ten points, and it can also ignore the opponent's armor. This gives Liu Xing, who originally only fought against five scum, the ability to kill the enemy instantly.
This is a qualitative leap.
But if there are no special projectiles, the effect of this Warcraft slingshot will be greatly reduced, and the improvement of Liu Xing will not be so obvious, and other projectiles may not even be suitable for this Warcraft slingshot, just like a bow. Although the last crossbow bolt can be used normally, the effect of one plus one may be less than one.
So when he thought that the special projectiles in his hand might fly without a trace, Liu Xing felt a little reluctant and distressed, so he began to consider a question - should he replace it with ordinary projectiles?
If ordinary projectiles are used, the estimated damage may be around four points, and because the projectiles and slingshot are not perfectly matched, the hit rate will also be reduced, and the effect of ignoring armor will also be lost.
As for the earth-diving beast that needs to be faced this time, Liu Xing thinks that it should be a monster with no armor but a high blood volume, because deep-sea fish generally have relatively small scales, or simply have no scales. As you go to the bottom of the sea, the pressure you need to endure increases, so the scales are a burden for these deep-sea fish.
Therefore, Liu Xing feels that he does not really need to use the armor-ignoring effect of the Warcraft slingshot now, and he is only responsible for supplementing a little damage in this battle, so it seems that he does not need special projectiles, right?
Thinking of this, Liu Xing took out another pocket, which contained bullets made of fine steel. It is said that they are the royal bullets of the third prince, because the third prince also likes to use slingshots for hunting. The reason is that the third prince is hunting. When I was young, I liked to hunt pheasants, hares, and the like. After all, targets such as wild boars, dogs, and bears were too big, so there was no pressure at all when aiming. . . Moreover, in this martial arts module, there are special crossbows for hunting wild boars, dogs and bears. They are all made by highly professional sects, and the materials and craftsmanship are already as good as those in the real world. product.
This leads to the fact that when hunting large prey such as wild boars, bears, jackals, tigers and leopards, as long as the hunter has a set of special equipment, he is equivalent to hunting with a powerful shotgun, and his success rate will be will be greatly improved.
Therefore, for the third prince, using a bow and arrow to deal with wild boars and bears is easier than using a slingshot to deal with pheasants and hares. Not to mention the martial arts masters around the third prince, any one of them can turn those wild boars and bears into meat paste. .
It is precisely because of this that the Warcraft slingshot appeared in the third prince's treasury, so when the third prince heard that Liu Xing also liked playing with slingshots, he rewarded Liu Xing with the Warcraft slingshot and returned it to Liu Xing. I bought my favorite stainless steel projectile, and also gave it to a large bag directly.
Therefore, several players who had transferred to blacksmith apprenticeship came to Liu Xing and asked for about half of the fine steel projectiles from Liu Xing, preparing to use them to forge several fine steel swords.
"Liu Xing, are you a little nervous?"
Because the importance of Liu Xing is self-evident, the person responsible for protecting Liu Xing this time is Ding Kun. Moreover, Ding Kun has also exchanged shotguns for cannons and obtained an excellent quality magpie painting from the reward of the third prince. Bow, and this time also brought a pot of twenty hunting-specific arrows, including five explosive arrows, five poisonous arrows and ten blood groove arrows that can trigger the bleeding effect.
"I didn't expect that the magpie painting bow in the martial arts module this time is really a bow with a bird pattern. It looks like a gun skin in some shooting games." Ding Kun said with a sigh.
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows and said with some surprise: "Huh? Shouldn't the Quehua Bow be a skin gun? Ah, it should be a skin bow. I remember there was a Quehua Bow in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", right? Or Did you say that magpie bows are mentioned in many ancient books? What other iron-tied bows are also famous? But then again, I remember that there are several iron-tied bows among the weapons rewarded by the third prince, so Brother Ding, why don’t you If you choose to use the iron tire bow, it sounds much more powerful than the magpie bow. Isn’t it Brother Ding that you can’t lift it?”
"You can't lift it."
Ding Kun smiled and shook his head and said: "Liu Xing, you are a layman, so it is normal for your understanding of the magpie-painted bow and the iron-tied bow to be deviated. In other words, it is the most common problem for all laymen - literal meaning; from what is known so far Judging from the information, there is about 80% possibility that the Quehua bow is not painted with patterns on the bow, because the Quehua bow is a practical bow with a wide range of applications, rather than a special bow that is only used on certain ceremonial occasions. Bow, so the most reliable guess about the magpie-painted bow at present is that the painted character in the middle may be a misrepresentation, and it should actually be the Chinese character for birch.”
"Birch is a commonly used tree in ancient bow making. Liu Xing, you should also know that the birch tree has some unique patterns on its surface, so many people think that the magpie painted bow is made from a birch tree called magpie birch. The pattern of the magpie birch looked like a magpie, or the eyes of a magpie. However, after that, the magpie birch bow gradually became known as the magpie painted bow, because the pattern on the surface of the birch tree would Due to changes in planting areas and climate changes in recent years, birches that were originally called magpie birches have gradually disappeared."
"Of course, it is also possible that the magpie birch itself has a far-fetched meaning, because we all know that when the ancients named the constellations in the sky, some of them were really not worthy of their names, or the names were very abstract. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that it is because The modern light pollution has caused some stars with relatively low brightness to be difficult to see, so the entire constellation looks too different from its name; however, the magpie birch may also have been forced to be named by a celebrity, and finally the magpie birch appeared. But after more than a hundred years, people couldn’t understand why Quehua Bow was called this name, so they changed it to Quehua Bow?”
After listening to Ding Kun's words, Liu Xing remembered one thing. When he was playing with his friends when he was a child, he found a very special pattern on a stone, like a little bird raising its front paws. Dog; As a result, when Liu Xing took this stone to share with his friends, everyone else thought that the pattern on the stone was a Tyrannosaurus rex.
However, Liu Xing had a bit of a stubborn temper at that time, so he insisted that the pattern on the stone was a puppy. Although his friends didn't think so, because Liu Xing discovered this stone, they could only Accept that the pattern on this stone is a puppy.
Therefore, a picture emerged in Liu Xing's mind now, that is, when a general was inspecting the newly made crossbow, he found a bow made of birch, with an eye similar to a magpie's eye appearing on it. pattern, so he laughed and said that the bow might be made of a birch called magpie birch. When other people accompanying him saw this, even if they knew that there was no such birch tree called magpie birch in the world, they also laughed. He echoed that this is a magpie birch bow.
In this way, the Magpie Birch Bow appeared in history, but not many people know why the Magpie Birch Bow is called this name, so more people know it but don’t know why, although they feel that the Magpie Birch Bow is not worthy of its name. , but we can only bite the bullet and keep calling it; and then after the dynasties change, the origin of Quehua Gong will be completely lost, and when future generations see the name Quehua Gong in some history books, they will only feel confused, because in them It seems that there is no magpie birch, so some people will be smart enough to think that the magpie birch bow is written incorrectly, and the real name of this bow should be the magpie painted bow.
After all, in ancient times, there was also the setting of "courtesy guns", that is, adding various accessories to some common weapons, or drawing some patterns to be used in certain ceremonial occasions, such as a weapon called Guduo As time went by, it gradually turned into a ritual weapon, completely losing its hammering effect as a weapon.
Looking at Liu Xing with an "I see" expression on his face, Ding Kun said with a smile: "So the name Que Hua Gong is probably passed down by rumors, but to be honest, Liu Xing, the Que Hua Gong you initially understood is actually It has a unique romantic color, which dilutes the murderous nature of the magpie-painted bow as a weapon, so I am quite satisfied with this magpie-painted bow now, because it is really worthy of its name now, and it has both appearance and strength. "
Liu Xing looked at the magpie-painted bow in Ding Kun's hand, and felt that the various birds on the bow looked so lifelike that they almost burst out of the painting. However, what surprised Liu Xing was that this The birds above seem to have their eyes closed, or there are no eyes at all.
Seeing Liu Xing's expression turn into confusion, Ding Kun also knew what Liu Xing was thinking, so he expressed his opinion, "Many of the rewards sent by the third prince this time should be his." Royal objects, such as the slingshot in your hand Liu Xing and my magpie bow, their quality is much higher than other rewards. For example, other bows have a 2d2 damage bonus, and This magpie-painted bow is 4d2! Therefore, the patterns on this magpie-painted bow do not have eyes. Maybe it is to echo the story of the finishing touch. After all, these birds without painted eyes are already lifelike and lifelike. If we continue If you add eyes, won’t you be able to take off directly?”
Liu Xing felt that Ding Kun's statement made sense, because the patterns on this magpie-painted bow were a bit too realistic.
In other words, this is the first time Liu Xing wants to use the four words "lifelike" in a painting.
"As for the iron bow, many people who don't know much about bows and arrows will think that the iron bow is a bow made of iron. Because the strength of iron is much higher than that of trees, the bow made should be more powerful; This is a typical misunderstanding. In fact, although the iron bow actually exists, its effect is much worse than the wooden bow, and there are not many people who can use the iron bow, let alone make one. The cost is not low, especially in ancient times when iron was scarce, so instead of making a flashy iron bow, it would be more practical to replace it with an iron sword."
Ding Kun, who likes to be a teacher, continued: "So the iron-tied bow cannot be an iron bow, because the iron-tied bow is mentioned in many ancient military books, and the iron-tied bow in these books is used as a standard weapon. It was equipped on a large scale for archers to use, so the iron tire bow cannot be an iron bow, and it cannot be a ceremonial weapon. Therefore, the current view of the iron tire bow is that the iron tire bow is Refers to a bow-making technique, such as using a mold made of iron.”
Just as Liu Xing was about to speak, Ding Kun frowned and said: "But having said that, since the magpie bow in the martial arts module this time has already lived up to its name, then I guess the iron tire bow here may actually be a kind of pure iron. Bow, anyway, there are many martial arts masters in this module, and their arm strength should be able to pull this kind of iron bow... And how can I put it, theoretically speaking, iron bows are definitely not as easy to use as wooden bows. , but I estimate that the iron-tied bows in this module will most likely have a higher damage bonus, and their performance will completely overwhelm wooden bows of the same level."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, and suddenly thought of something - could the screenwriter of the costume drama Kim Fu Huadao seek advice from professionals before starting filming, so as not to produce a drama full of loopholes?
Many years ago, Liu Xing saw this sentence on the Internet, because there was a costume drama at that time that was very good, but it was criticized for being useless in terms of serving Hua Dao. For example, the costumes did not conform to the characteristics of the era, and certain ritual utensils were used in daily life. etc.
So Liu Xing suddenly realized that the author of this martial arts module, that is, the male voice, may have learned about martial arts from some martial arts novels and film and television dramas, but did not understand the era background of these martial arts novels and film and television dramas, so he created The martial arts module that came out was a bit superficial, with flaws in many details, and there were also some things that were taken for granted, such as the settings of the magpie bow and the iron tire bow.
But this also proves one thing, that is, this martial arts module should be completed by that male voice alone, so if he is not an expert in history or a hard-core history buff, it is normal for this kind of problem to occur. .
