My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 8
Hao Dadao looked at the leaving group, still feeling a little palpitating.

Ban Jin, who had his leg broken, and Ba Liang, who had his arm broken, came over in a hurry, lowering their heads and not daring to look at him.

Hao Dadao wasn't interested in scolding them either. Thinking of Wei Shi's reputation and Wei Cheng's identity, he was very distressed now.

At this time, Zhang Zhongjing came over and said calmly: "Brother Dao, don't worry so much. It's a blessing or a curse, and you can't avoid it. Besides, Wei Xiaoyou is not a strong person, so you can relax yourself."

Hao Dadao gave a bitter smile and could only nod his head. After all, Zhang Zhongjing brought him here, and Zhang Zhongjing was very kind to Haojiacun, so now he can only treat Wei Cheng kindly.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly ordered someone to arrange a new residence for Wei Cheng. Zhang Zhongjing's hut must not be crowded.

Everyone returned to the top of the mountain one by one, Wei Cheng seemed to be okay, and was directing the villagers to dig a latrine.

Hao Dadao deliberately stepped forward to flatter him and told him to rest, but was stopped by Zhang Zhongjing.

"Brother Dao, everything can go on as usual."

Zhang Zhongjing is still very accurate in judging people. He felt that Wei Cheng didn't like Hao Dadao's sudden change of attitude, and that was indeed the case.If Hao Dadao suddenly became obsequious, Wei Cheng would definitely pat his ass and leave immediately.

"This..." Hao Dadao struggled for a moment, and finally said helplessly: "I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in this young master's gourd. I feel very nervous, alas."

Zhang Zhongjing smiled without saying a word, glanced at Wei Cheng, turned around and continued to work.The pulsatilla soup was very effective. He wanted to record the recovery of each villager, so that he could write it down later for reference.

Wei Cheng knew that Hao Dadao had been staring at him, but he couldn't do anything about it. He was here to collect medicine, and it was not certain when he would come back later.Anyway, they can't get along for a few days, and it's just that they don't come when they turn around.

After figuring this out, he patiently instructed the villagers to dig latrines.

It has to be said that these villagers are quite smart, and it can be said that they can understand everything.

"Young Master Wei, is there really so many benefits to this latrine?"

"That's right." Wei Cheng nodded.Although latrines pollute the air a bit, they have many benefits.

Especially in this age, the function of a latrine is not only to solve that demand.

"You can try it later, add some rotten leaves and rotten wood to it, wait for ten days and a half months, and then pour the dung water in the fields. When harvesting in autumn, it will definitely bring you unexpected harvest."

This sentence is a bit exaggerated.Therefore, Wei Cheng plans to teach them how to weed and regularly water the crops to eliminate insects, so as to ensure that the harvest will not be too low at that time, lest they turn around and slap themselves in the face.

The person talking to Wei Cheng is called Chengtou, the elder brother of Banjin and Baliang, and one of the more prestigious people in Haojia Village. He is a good hunter and a little carpenter. He was the one who led the team to log before .

Different from the half cat and two who like to steal, rape and play tricks, he is called Fang Zheng, and he has a positive attitude in doing things. Although he looks very old, he is actually only 23 years old this year, two years younger than Wei Cheng.By the way, Hao Dadao is 36 this year, and the dumb man is only in his early thirties.

"Weitou, you let a fire be built, and the surface of these logs will be burned black in a while."

Wei Cheng saw several villagers bring over a pile of wood, which was cut down by Chengtou and had some young leaves on it.

Chengtou asked curiously, "Do you want to burn the wood into charcoal?"

Wei Cheng nodded and said, "That's right, the surface is burned into charcoal, so that the wood can not only prevent corrosion, but also increase its hardness. After all, it is for squatting on it to go to the toilet. If the wood is rotten or deformed, it is very dangerous."

"Isn't burning charcoal more dangerous? Charcoal is easily broken." A villager asked in confusion.

Wei Cheng emphasized: "That's right, it is indeed very brittle when fully burned into charcoal, but if the surface is only burnt black, the wood will become very hard, and it can also prevent moths."

Seeing everyone looking at him in a daze, Wei Cheng laughed and said, "Start the fire first, and I will demonstrate it to you. After watching it, you will understand."

Said scratched his head, obediently went to light the fire, the bonfire in the middle of the gathering place was burning all day long, all he had to do was dig a few red-hot coals.After a while, the fire burned up.

Wei Cheng chose two branches that were as thick as fingers, and motioned to sharpen the branches.

Then, he took one of them and roasted it on the fire until it was almost done, and then sharpened it on the stone for a while to make sure it was sharp enough.Then he said, "Use yours to see if it can be nailed to the wood."

With a bewildered look on his face, Chengtou said cooperatively: "It's definitely not enough to use only hands, eighty-two, go get my bow."

Ba Liang's arm was broken, so Zhang Zhongjing made him a straw rope and hung it around his neck. Hearing his elder brother's call, he reluctantly ran into a thatched hut and took out a short wooden bow.

When he got closer, Ba Liang bypassed Wei Cheng fearfully, handed the bow to Chengtou, and ran away in a hurry.

Chengtou looked at the younger brother and sighed, and after apologizing to Wei Cheng, he skillfully drew and rewound the bow, and with a sound of '咻', a sharpened branch was precisely nailed to a piece of wood ten steps away.

Several villagers next to him complimented him and praised him for his good archery skills. Wei Cheng also nodded and said, "Good archery skills, try this one again." He handed over the burnt branch of the arrowhead.

Smiling triumphantly, he took the branch and drew the bow to the bow with the same strength and accuracy, but to his surprise, the branch penetrated deeper into the wood this time, half a finger long.

As expected of an old Orion, one can tell the difference between the two arrows at a glance. The arrow that has been burnt and processed by Wei Cheng is obviously sharper and harder.

Wei Cheng smiled and said, "Go and take a look. If I think it's right, your arrowhead should be bald, but mine is very sharp."

Weighing the head became very interested, and ran over to pull it out for comparison.Sure enough, as Wei Cheng said, the arrowhead roasted by fire is still sharp, but his one is bald and has no lethality.

"Young Master Wei, can I, we use this method of making arrows?" A villager asked excitedly after seeing it.

Wei Cheng nodded amusedly, "Of course, otherwise I will teach you how to do it. Well, you can think about the arrow thing later. Now let's dry the wood and burn the surface. Let's try to build the hut today." .”

"Hahaha, that's great." The villagers laughed excitedly. The arrows are sharper and more durable. For them, it means that the difficulty of hunting has been greatly reduced. If Wei Cheng didn't let them work, they probably couldn't restrain themselves. The urge to go hunting was gone.

Chengtou also came over at this time, bowed respectfully to Wei Cheng, and said, "Mr. Wei, I thank you on behalf of the villagers. I am stupid and don't know what to say. How about it? Tiger Pi, if you don’t dislike my craftsmanship, I’ll help you make a pair of winter boots later.”

Wei Cheng thought to himself, forget about the tiger leather boots, if you give me the tiger whip, I will give you a compound bow later.
