chance world

When he got the silk, Ding Qiyu greeted Aunt He, took his ax and went out, climbed up the hillside behind the small courtyard, and went to the small bamboo forest to find a suitable bamboo after a lot of effort.

Carrying the bamboo and the axe, he rushed home and sat in the yard tossing about. Ding Qiyu thought about how easy it would be to build a 3D printed model of this stupid thing. He fiddled with it for almost an hour, and finally came up with a bow arm that barely caught the eye.Looking at the palms that had been stabbed with blood and the tiger's mouth that was shaken to the blue, Ding Qiyu couldn't help but sigh why he didn't have the "super power" of the protagonist in survival sandbox games. Out of the tools, it seems that I must find a carpenter to learn the craft as soon as possible.

Take out the roll of silk, put a small piece of hemp pad in it and fix it, as a place to place the projectile when drawing the bow, recalling the appearance of He Ankang’s slingshot, knot the bowstring firmly on the bow arm, a small slingshot is completed up.

After tidying up the mess, he dealt with the small cut on his hand, and when he entered the room, he saw his aunt making clothes for her. Ding Qiyu once again felt the warmth of his mother from Aunt He: "Mother, don't rush to do it, don't worry, you Don't tire your eyes."

"How can I let you wear that ragged clothes all the time, and Auntie has good eyesight, so it's okay." Aunt He threaded the needle through the fabric.

Ding Qiyu smiled warmly, and stopped persuading, but instead asked, "Aniang, is there a carpenter in our village?"

Aunt He stopped what she was doing, raised her head and said, "Carpenter? There is one at the east end of the village. Do you want to make any furniture, Ah Yu?"

"No, no, I want to be an apprentice with a master carpenter and learn a craft!"

Ding Qiyu wanted to learn crafts, but Aunt He agreed with all her hands, and immediately said happily: "That's good! I will take you to apprentice when my mother's legs and feet are good. That old carpenter can be regarded as my mother's old cousin. Bring some Dried meat and eggs are used as a meeting gift, so it is definitely no problem to apprentice."

"Hey, Ma'am, don't be in a hurry. I want to go after I'm fully familiar with the environment. Today I'm just inquiring about it." Ding Qiyu didn't want the aunt to worry too much, and he had to take care of the apprenticeship by himself.

"It's okay, whenever you decide, Auntie will take you there." Aunt He raised her hand and pinched Ding Qiyu's red face, her son liked her more and more.

"Yeah!" Ding Qiyu felt a little embarrassed in his heart, and he was pinched in the face by an "old man" in his 20s.

In the afternoon, Ding Qiyu went to He Zhongchang's house to ask He Ankang to learn some basic knowledge of farming and farming. He Ankang's field happened to be in need of work. It is considered to be a volunteer for their family while studying, why not do it?He Ankang wanted to give Ding Qiyu the slingshot he talked about in the morning, but Ding Qiyu said that he had already made a slingshot, so he gave up on sending the bow.In the afternoon, He Ankang took Ding Qiyu to work and taught him the basic knowledge of farming and some small experiences. Ding Qiyu understood the whole process ignorantly, and he was considered a beginner.

In this way, the days passed day by day, and Ding Qiyu has been in this other world for almost two months. The most simple and ordinary farming life in the countryside is everything new to Ding Qiyu, and he acquires new skills almost every day.She can already use the slingshot very proficiently. She silently gave herself the title of "one hundred shots and one hundred hits" in her heart, and asked He Ankang to teach her archery. After practicing for a long time at the beginning, her arms seemed to be useless, and her fingers were always being used. The bow string was scratched to bloody flesh, and Aunt He felt distressed when she found out. Now she goes to bed early and gets up early, and goes out into the woods to collect firewood every day at dawn, and usually brings back some small game.She also went to the river to observe how other people caught fish and crabs, and came back to make a decent net bag by herself, and brought some freshwater fish from time to time to improve the food.Now Ding Qiyu's family can eat meat almost every day, and the unfinished meat can be sold in the market for a few pennies.In addition to voluntarily handing over to A Niang, Ding Qiyu also accumulated a little private savings from all his seven copper coins.Ding Qiyu basically did all the physical work of chopping firewood, lighting the fire, carrying water, and boiling water. When there was work in the field, she also actively joined in, and together with Aunt Lian Er, they took good care of their only little field.Ding Qiyu also took time regularly to teach Lian'er how to write, and Lian'er also studied hard, and now he can write a lot of basic characters.

Looking at Ding Qiyu's non-stop busy figure every day, Mrs. He felt distressed and sighed with emotion at the young man's exuberant energy.In fact, when Ding Qiyu first started doing physical work, she also felt sore all over her body and her bones were falling apart, but after gradually getting used to it, she took physical work as a kind of physical exercise (plus the miraculous effect of Xie Bi’an’s medicine), which made her look radiant every day Vibrant and energetic.Busyness can also dilute worries, so that Ding Qiyu has no time to think about everything in the past, and the new life is full and happy.

Ding Qiyu felt that she was basically familiar with the living environment, so she could consider learning carpentry. She inquired about He Youshi, an old carpenter in the east of the village, who was fond of fishing, and bought a set of fishing tackle of good quality with the little money she had saved. , took a few fresh fish, and went to visit He Youshi at the east end of the village.

He Youshi saw that Ding Qiyu is well-behaved, sensible, and sincere to learn. These days, learning carpentry can't make much money. Young people are ambitious and like to make a living with quick money. Young people like Ding Qiyu who want to settle down and learn carpentry have already There were very few, so he readily accepted Ding Qiyu as his apprentice.

So Ding Qiyu started her busier life, going to the woods in the early morning, learning carpentry with He Youshi in the afternoon, and helping the family at other times.

He Youshi had experience in leading apprentices, and originally wanted to take Ding Qiyu directly and let her learn in the process of being a master, but found that Ding Qiyu was very eager to learn and liked to ask all kinds of questions.For the matter of a rivet, she must give you a complete understanding of the relevant knowledge behind it before giving up.

So He Youshi changed the way of teaching her, starting from knowing wood, knowing wood, choosing wood, which wood has what kind of characteristics, and what kind of things can be used for it; then to the use of carpentry tools, how to draw lines, How to mark, how to cut, how to saw, save labor and make the fracture neat; how to consider load bearing and force, and easy to use, but He Youshi found that Ding Qiyu is simply a genius in this area, she understood after a little bit, and even came up with better The plan seems to have been learned a long time ago. When talking about this part of the content with Ding Qiyu, He Youshi is often inspired by her and thinks of some good ideas that he has never thought of before.

The whole process is still teaching in practice. When He Youshi received the business, he took Ding Qiyu to start from the knowledge of wood, let Ding Qiyu choose and get materials, and let her decide how to cut the wood after getting the materials back. , assembly, He Youshi's systematic teaching method has achieved remarkable results, and Ding Qiyu's woodworking level has improved by leaps and bounds.

After another two months of learning, Ding Qiyu has basically mastered the selection of materials and the application of tools.However, the main work of a carpenter is furniture and decoration, but he has little involvement in complex machinery and wooden armor mechanisms. Ding Qiyu's ultimate goal is not to be a carpenter to make furniture. Her apprenticeship as a carpenter is to acquire basic manufacturing and processing skills. The level is almost enough for her.Not wanting to spend time practicing how to make dressing tables and chests of drawers, Ding Qiyu simply asked Master He to teach him how to carve patterns, so that he can make the wooden mechanism he made have a more cool appearance in the future.

Ding Qiyu didn't get paid for helping He Youshi in the carpentry work, so he just paid the tuition fee. Who made He Youshi really do his best to teach her.He Youshi loved this little apprentice very much, and even gave her a set of brand-new carpentry tools made by himself as a gift.

With a certain woodworking and manufacturing technology, Ding Qiyu wanted to use it.When I was in college, I had a strong interest in ancient Chinese wooden armor mechanisms. I checked the principles of some ancient wooden armor mechanisms on the Internet. And the structure was modified, and the excessive pursuit of the distance and strength of the mechanism crossbow was abandoned, so as to realize the minimum structure, and the sketch was drawn with charcoal pencils, and a very small and portable mechanism crossbow was produced.

The small continuous crossbow has double chambers, which can be filled with projectiles or shoot arrows. It can load fifteen projectiles or three short arrows at a time, and pull the trigger to fire. The sound of shooting is quieter than that of bows and arrows, and it is very convenient to change arrows. , Ding Qiyu also added a small device to help aim.After trying it out in the woods, I found it easier than using slingshots and bows, so I helped He Ankang make one for him, which surprised He Ankang and couldn't put it down.

In the early morning of this day, Ding Qiyu went to the forest to collect firewood as usual, and soon the basket was filled with firewood. She hid the firewood basket in a hidden place and put it away, ready to go hunting.Ding Qiyu was wearing a gray-and-white short jacket made for her by Aunt He, black cloth boots, and a hatchet in his waist.On her shoulder was a small cloth bag that Lian Er sewed for her, which contained a lot of made projectiles and short arrows. She took out a small repeater and filled the projectiles. Ding Qiyu went to the forest while looking for the prey. Walking in the depths, after walking for a long time, she didn't find any prey worthy of her shot. When Ding Qiyu was lamenting the bad harvest today, he suddenly heard human voices from deeper in the forest.After listening intently for a moment, mixed with the chirping of birds and insects and the sound of wind blowing leaves, it was indeed the voice of someone speaking.

Ding Qiyu thought it was other people from the village who came in to cut firewood and hunt, thinking that these guys must have hunted all the prey away along the way: "I want to see who is so nasty." Curiosity drove her towards the direction of the voice .

After walking for a long time following the vague sound, Ding Qiyu vaguely saw a carriage parked on the road leading to Xingcheng that Lianer had mentioned, and several people stood in front of the carriage, and they seemed to be arguing about something.Ding Qiyu approached slowly through the dense bushes in the forest, hid himself in the grass, pushed aside the grass blades, and finally was able to see the situation over there clearly.

I saw two young men standing in front of the carriage, both of them were in their teens. Their clothes should be a rich young master and his servant. They turned their backs to the carriage and faced Ding Qiyu. The son has handsome features, but at this moment his face is flushed and full of anger due to various reasons.Opposite them were three burly men, all of whom carried large knives.

what's the situation?Seeing this posture, there seemed to be only one possibility, Ding Qiyu frowned.

"A few gentlemen, this, this is all our belongings, please let us go!" The servant tremblingly carried a cloth bag and two money bags, which seemed to be quite heavy.

It really made me run into a robbery... Ding Qiyu thought to himself, thinking about what to do.

The big guy in the lead grabbed the belongings and weighed them. After the three of them made eye contact, they cursed: "You are so foolish when you are a man and a child?! How dare you say that there is nothing hidden in the car? Get out of the way!" The boy who was blocking the way was about to rush up the car, but another big man immediately put a big knife on the boy's neck, causing his legs to weaken instantly and tremble.

Young Master Jin Yi took a step forward to block the big man with his body, looking very angry: "You dare! Is there any law in broad daylight, and the money is all given to you! What else do you want!"

"Here, Grandpa is Wang Fa! Get out!" The big man hit Young Master Jinyi's abdomen hard with the back of his knife. The young man staggered and fell to the ground in pain. The strength of the big man made Ding Qiyu feel pain in his stomach. for a moment.And the boy next to him with the knife resting on his neck has already fainted from fright.

Just as the big man was about to step into the carriage, the curtain was suddenly lifted from the inside, and a woman in purple came out of the carriage.Instantly attracted Ding Qiyu's eyes in the bushes not far away.
