Chapter 271: Ghost

The shape of the pipe has never been seen by Qumu, especially in the two parts of the tail. The raised part and the closed part inside seem to have great use.
Yu Qiang also has observations, but he can't think of the role of such a pipe. It is open, but it is not all. If it is a weapon, he can only think of a scorpion's stick, but obviously The production of the stick does not need to be so complicated. Yu Qiang, who is confused, dare not express his thoughts and can only listen to Master’s views.
Qumu took the tube to focus on the research.
He has a characteristic of this person. When he is curious about something, his spirit will be especially concentrated, as if he has forgotten where he is.
Everyone did not bother him, watching him slowly stand from standing and sitting, and finally kneel on the table to observe the pipe.
I don't know how long it took, Qumu suddenly sat up straight.
Guan Yan touched his face with a boring Shao Fei. Shao Fei glanced at him. Guan Yan signaled him to look at the Qumu. The latter seemed to have finished studying the Qumu, and immediately had the spirit. He couldn’t wait to break the quiet surroundings. atmosphere.
"How, Qumu, did you see it?"
Qumu didn't look at him, his eyes hesitantly looked at An Ziran. It seemed a bit embarrassing to spend so much time researching on himself. He said quietly: "About... there is a little guess."
An Ziran calmly said: "Talk about your guess."
Time is not a problem, the most important thing is that there is real material.
Qu Mu’s hand smashed on the pipe, which was a sign of tension.
"If I didn't guess wrong, this pipe should be a shooting thing, and the power should be great."
An Ziran's eyes suddenly brightened. From a strange tube that he had never seen before, he could guess that it was really powerful. He began to believe that Qumu had the ability to fulfill all his requirements.
Guan Wei and Shao Fei were also a little surprised. They knew in advance what the pipe was for. If they didn’t know it beforehand, Wang Hao showed them this with the pipe. They felt that they could not guess this. Already answered 80%.

Why?
asked An Ziran.
"This is different from the width of the pipe. Each part should have a different effect. First of all, the inner wall of the pipe is extremely smooth, obviously deliberate. It should be to reduce the resistance, let the things inside it go smoothly, and this goes out. The protruding place, there is a small space inside, I think it might be the place to load things, and here..."
The curved wood points to the longest part of the pipe, which is the front raft.
"There is a lot of hoops around this place. If it doesn't work, it can't be reinforced here for no reason. So I guess, going out from here should be a very powerful thing. The person who designed it may worry that this part will burst. I will work hard here, and the pipe is too thin, so I guess it should be a kind of shooting."
When it comes to what he is good at, Qumu is flying and talking, not like a young man with a gloomy character.
"That's too good." Shao Fei couldn't help but applaud, his expression was very excited, because Qu Mu said it was completely right, a look can tell the real role of the pipe, it is a ghost.
An Ziran also showed a faint smile. "Sure enough, the name is well-deserved.
Hearing praise, Qu Mu's eyes are very bright, and his mouth is also a little shallow smile. Although he does not show too much emotion, but the person who knows him knows that he is very happy at the moment.
Yu Qiang is also very happy for Master. He knows that Master is very powerful. Otherwise, he would not insist on worshipping him. He must know that a man of nearly 30 years old went to worship a 19-year-old youth as a teacher. It’s not a happy thing to see, but he is happy, he can learn Master’s craftsmanship, and he is very happy to contribute to Daya.
"This is indeed a kind of launch type." An Ziran took the pipe from the hand of Qu Mu, and looked at the two people with deep meaning: "You are also very clever, let me test it, you will know this. What the is."
Qumu is very interested. According to his speculation, if the power of this thing is really great, then it can be applied to the battlefield.
An Ziran did not take them to the mountains.
The fire is not a bomb. Although this thing will have a certain sound, it will not be particularly large. It can be tested somewhere in the mountain town.
To this end, he deliberately draws a large piece of sand in an abandoned land behind the arsenal. The sand is surrounded by high and thick walls, and the area is also large, just for experimentation.
Five people came to the battlefield, and the target was already installed in the battlefield.
Guan Wei and Shao Fei have moved all the things they need to use. As long as the blacksmith still has to pipe, they have solved all the follow-up problems.
An Ziran first puts the projectile forward. The projectile is some round pebbles. Then the gunpowder is filled with gunpowder. There is a hole in the drug room wall called the fire door. A thread is taken from the fire door. When shooting, just ignite this. The wire, which detonates the gunpowder in the drug room, can shoot the projectile.
However, because of the limited conditions, the effective range of the fire is not far away, even within a few hundred meters, even a little shorter, according to An Ziran guess, within 50 meters may be the best range, once it is beyond this range, as long as it is not hitting the head Can't die.
Everyone looked at An Ziran quietly.
Seeing that he had finished the necessary things, he took out the fire and suddenly caught his breath.
The fuse is ignited, and the sound of ‘噗滋噗滋’ is immersed in the inside of the pipe, in the way that Qu Mu and Yu Qiang have never seen before.
Then they saw An Ziran aiming the front mouth of the pipe at a wooden target 30 meters away. The gunpowder in the drug room quickly exploded and pushed the pebbles out. Everyone only heard the sound of '咻', as if there was something. They shot from the mouth, but they did not hear the sound of the object hit by the stone.
The crowd immediately looked at An Ziran.
An Ziran calmly dumped the residue in the drug room and reinstalled it. Then he opened the door: "It was just missed." The sand field was very large, so the small stone fell directly onto the sand, so there was no sound.
"Cough." Shao Fei coughed.
An Ziran didn't feel anything good at all. This is his first time using the fire. It is normal to lose the head. There is an experience. The second time is much easier. The stone is flying out from the distance. The target was half a meter to hit the edge, and then hit the red heart, everyone was completely shocked.
"Go and move the target back ten meters."
An Ziran said to the people behind him.
As soon as the voice fell, a man quickly came out from behind him. An Ziran fixed his eyes and found that this person was a Qumu, and could not help but smile.
Forty meters away, An Ziran hit the bull's eye once this time, and then moved ten meters, the head is still, but when the target continues to move backwards, although still able to hit the target, but it does not penetrate the target as before. , and he guessed it.
Although the effective range is too short, it is far less than the range of bows and arrows, but it can still play a small role in the battle of defending the city, especially for the armored armies, the effect of fire will be better, but he also believes that this will change in the future. Situation.
Afterwards, Qumu showed great interest in the fire, but more precisely, he was very interested in gunpowder and the fuse. This seemingly inconspicuous, even the combination of substances that can be seen at ordinary times turned out to be It would be incredible to be as big as lethality.
Qumu asked An Ziran to lend him the fire. After he got the approval, he went into the room and studied it. He did not step out of the door for two days. The food was sent by Yu Qiang.
Everyone has long been eccentric, and Qumu is like this. Often, in order to study some things, it is useless to persuade others, and it is useless to persuade them.
An Ziran is not idle.
The effect that was tried on that day was good, but it did not meet his requirements. He thought that the power could actually be higher.
The next day, he went to the iron workshop, only a few steps away, because it was next to his armor.
The number of ironsmiths inside has been expanded to more than 50. Almost all the blacksmiths in the town have been found by him. They are both bombs and shells. The efficiency is too low. He is already considering other An iron-making workshop was also built in the town.
Guan Wei and Shao Fei practiced in the battlefield.
Although the fire and the bows are all justified, the difficulty is different. The bows and arrows are familiar to everyone after all. I have never heard of them. It is easy to learn, and the fire is more troublesome. It is not like the bow and arrow. Rely on their own coordination.
In this way, in the sand field for a long time, a barrel of gunpowder is running out.
