Chapter 15 Qin Dynasty Weapons
He motioned to the weirdo to point the arrow upward and point it at our sight: "Look, the arrow is triangular, which is the biggest feature of Qin Nu." He then pointed to us the mark left on the wall, "Triangular arrow.
It has three sharp edges. The moment it hits the target, the edge of the edge will form a huge cutting force. The arrow can easily penetrate armor and reach the human body!"
"But this is obviously made of metal, so why is it still so sharp after two thousand years? It's not rusty?" Brother Monkey asked scratching his head and ears.
Donghuang shook his head and said: "The ancients had many superb production techniques that our modern technology cannot achieve. The 'Yue King Goujian Sword' is also made of bronze and is older than this arrow, but it is missing.
After the rust stains are unearthed, you can cut iron like mud with just one stroke!"
I looked at the three perfect arcs of the arrow, caressed my heart and said, "Oh my god, that shot just now was too fast. If it had hit me, I would have been disabled for the rest of my life!"
"The shape of the bullet is to reduce the air resistance during flight. The outline of this arrow is almost the same as the shape of the bullet. Its design is in the same vein as today's bullets. This is the aerodynamics of the Qin people!"
"Ignore this for now, we have to find where this arrow came from?" Brother Monkey looked around vigilantly.
At this time, the glasses guy who had been sleeping in the corner finally woke up. He squinted his eyes and shouted that he was thirsty. The mouse said: "I have water in my bag." He stood up unsteadily and took a step towards the mouse.
I thought that he had just woken up and was still confused, so I should go and get it for him.
Donghuang seemed to be thinking the same thing as me. We both turned to him at the same time. As a result, before the glasses could even take the second step, they tripped over the packages piled up on the ground.
He pounced hard and grabbed the mouse's clothes. I was suddenly shocked: the mouse was still holding the lock plate and didn't dare to let go!
Before I could react, a frightening "buzzing" sound came from the door one after another!
At this moment, there were also the strange man's cry of "Be careful!", the sound of the searchlight breaking, and Dong Huang's scream.
After being stunned for two seconds, I felt like I was about to pee from fear...
The searchlight must have been shattered by a hidden arrow, and the surrounding area fell into darkness. I could only see a few fluorescent sticks on the ground and the weirdo's glowing left eye.
"Master Dong!" The weirdo stepped over and supported the swaying figure next to me.
Donghuang kept moaning, and I couldn't imagine him being penetrated by a three-edged arrow.
"Dongdong, you little brat..." Mouse's teeth chattered angrily, "Don't panic, the headlights are on! I'm on the safe side and won't let go!"
When the lightbulb above Brother Monkey's head lit up, we realized what was happening:
Fragments of the searchlight were scattered on the ground, reflecting silvery white light; three or four hidden arrows were inserted into the walls on both sides; Donghuang collapsed on the ground, covering his bleeding shoulder with his hand.
"What's going on? Why are we here?" Brother Glasses got up and looked at us innocently and blankly.
"Don't fucking move! Don't cause trouble!" Mouse saw Donghuang's injury, his face full of horror, but he couldn't let go, so he could only curse: "If you don't wake up sooner or later, you will be at this critical moment."
Can’t sleep a little longer!”
Glasses hadn't fully recovered yet, he was stunned for a moment after being scolded, and stayed where he was without daring to move.
"I'm fine... I just brushed my shoulder... I won't die." Donghuang was obviously enduring great pain, and his lips were bitten with blood stains.
Dr. Lin opened Donghuang's hand and took a look, then quickly opened his backpack, put on rubber gloves, took out a plastic bag, and poured alcohol into the cotton ball.
He was super fast and didn't make any unnecessary movements. I blinked my eyes twice and he was already wiping Dong Huang's shoulders.
"Be patient, I will sterilize and sew two stitches in a while." There was no wave in Dr. Lin's voice, "I will pass it close to your collarbone."
I covered my eyes and didn't dare to look at his wounds. Just thinking about the sharp arrow made me know how painful it would be.
Donghuang couldn't help but let out a "hissing" gasp, which made me feel sad. I shook my head and forced my muddy brain to calm down.
"We were careless." The weirdo sighed.
The mouse kept sitting cross-legged in front of the door and said: "It's all my fault. When I saw that the door was locked, I thought it was okay and relaxed my vigilance. But let's not forget that Xiang Yu has been to Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum. Although this place is
It’s a counterfeit, but after all, it’s the most impressive tomb in ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, so how could it have a simple single mechanism?”
"Don't move your shoulder arbitrarily. It took four stitches. I don't know if the arrow is poisonous. It depends on your luck." Dr. Lin took off his gloves, took out the sanitary wipes, and began to carefully clean the blood on his wrist.
I turned around and saw that Donghuang's shirt was almost completely stained red with blood, and it looked like a centipede lying on his shoulders, revealing black sutures and half-red gauze.
"Cousin...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you. I thought we were all dead!" Glasses stammered and knelt down to apologize, "I don't know anything, I just want to drink some water..."
"Okay, I don't blame you..." Dong Huang was so painful that his breathing trembled, "Let's not hang around here. Now that we have entered the imitation Qin Ling's mechanism, ahem... I have to think about how to open the door and go down alive.
Let's go...this arrow must not hurt anyone anymore, it will definitely kill someone if it hits an important part..."
"Mr. Dong, please stop talking and don't bother. There are Brother Dao and Brother Monkey and the others here. You can rest!" The mouse shouted to us, "Please give me some strength! I'll be able to loosen the lock."
Going back, I don’t know how many murderous things will fly out. Dongdong, you bastard is a college student, quickly think of a way to make up for it! Didn’t you read a lot on Children’s Day? And that great benefactor, Dr. Lin
, we are grasshoppers on the same line, we all take action to break this mechanism!"
The weirdo and Brother Monkey immediately separated to inspect the carvings on the wall; the glasses cut open Donghuang's bloody clothes and wiped his body clean; Dr. Lin remained unmoved and sat against the wall, watching them quietly.
I looked back at the stories I heard told by old men on the street when I was a kid, clarified my thoughts, and tried to apply them to the current scene:
Xiang Yu wanted to steal the Qin Mausoleum. He first sent Yingbu as a pioneer to dig out the entrance, but he triggered the Qin Dynasty's famous "crossbow formation". Arrows rained from the sky and shot out of the tomb passage. The first batch of soldiers who entered were all shot by random arrows.
He died. Yingbu did not dare to move forward and reported to Xiang Yu, but Xiang Yu insisted on digging graves for revenge, so batch after batch of soldiers became human targets and triggered the mechanism until all the hidden arrows in the crossbow formation were shot.
I know the power of triangular arrows, but I can't imagine the scene of soldiers being shot through by thousands of arrows, piercing their bodies. According to folklore, Xiang Yu's treasure room was designed by skilled craftsmen after Qin Ling, so maybe they can use the same
method to crack.
But obviously, we don't have that many dead soldiers who can act as human shields, and no one wants to die.
Fortunately, if the mechanism of the stone plate is triggered once, only a hidden arrow will be shot out without target. We will not be pierced by thousands of arrows as soon as we come up. This is much higher than the chance of surviving in Qinling.
times.
"I understand, there are arrow holes in these reliefs, and hidden arrows are shot out from these holes." The weirdo picked up a hidden arrow and inserted it back into the wall.
Brother Monkey followed the example of the weirdo and found a few empty arrow holes. He picked up the fluorescent sticks on the ground and inserted them into them, then turned off the headlight on his head.
You could see clearly in the dark that several fluorescent sticks were slanted deep into the wall.
"The firing angles of these arrow holes are different!" Brother Monkey almost scratched his cheek, "In other words, hidden arrows can attack from different directions and towards different targets, so how to avoid them?
"
I took a look at the dense carvings on the wall and said: "Qin Ling's crossbow formation triggered all the mechanisms and used all the hidden arrows to break it. How can we use up these hidden weapons and return the favor ourselves?"
Alive?"
"Let one person open the door here, and everyone else should retreat to the secret passage with no mechanism at the back." Dr. Lin pointed to the direction we came from.
"Don't! If you all leave, won't I have to die?" The mouse screamed in protest, "Is it easy for me? I have been sitting still and unable to move since I opened the door, and now my two old legs are numb.
!You still want me to be a human target!"
Dr. Lin said expressionlessly: "You will die, but you will save others."
The mouse was eager to refute him, but he didn't dare to let go. He was shaking all over in panic: "No! If the person who opens the door is hit by an arrow, you won't be able to get out. You must not let me take the risk!"
"Then find someone to block you behind. Just open your door. There's no danger."
"Isn't the doctor an angel in white? Why are you so cold-blooded? Tell me who is willing to do such a stupid thing?"
"The premise for me to save people is to ensure that I am still alive. Also, let me remind you that I gave you water, and each of the five of you owes me a life."
The mouse was speechless and had to ask his senior brother for help: "Brother Monkey!"
"Oh, my Doctor Lin, this is my fellow junior, let's not rush to get back our lives first, and then think of other ways!" Brother Monkey quickly rejected his method of claiming life.
I stood on tiptoe and looked at the arrow holes in the carvings, and made a suggestion: "Since we know that hidden arrows are hidden in the wall, can we find the location of each one and dig them out first?"
"Pick? How to pick?" Brother Monkey made a curved gesture, "What to pick with? How to ensure that the organs are not touched when picking?"
"Maybe you don't need to pick it, just know the location." Yan Yan pushed up his glasses, "The hidden arrow must be shot in a straight line. From the angle of the exit hole, look straight ahead, you can know where its target is, and avoid these targets.
Point, even if the mechanism is triggered, it won’t hurt us!”
"As expected of a college student!" After hearing this, Mouse immediately cheered as if he had been saved, "You are so knowledgeable that you can use it anywhere, I think you are a reliable kid!"
The weirdo made a big gesture and said: "This place is so big, when will we be able to find it all, and how can we find it all?"
Mouse was afraid that we would really leave him and retreat, so he hurriedly said: "It's better to have a way than nothing. You can try to find as many of them as you can. The worst is that I will die last! But you must also try your best to let me die in peace."
