Chapter 1187 The Mast and Scull Are Wiped Out (2 in 1)

In the quiet night, a faint fire flickered quietly in the carpenter's room of the Qingque Tribe.

Under the reflection of the faint firelight, a figure was busy working cautiously, not daring to make any excessive movements or make any noise, even walking extremely carefully.

It was as if he was worried that if his movements were too large, he would disturb the quiet night.

In the quiet night, time passed quietly, and this figure has been busy here.

The fire was not extinguished until the chickens raised in the tribe crowed several times.

Then a person quietly came out of the courtyard of the carpenter's room, and then groped his way through the courtyard, heading towards his sleeping place.

During this process, he walked very slowly.

On the one hand, I was worried that if I walked too fast, there would be footsteps, waking up those living in the courtyard. The other reason was because there were many mats in the courtyard, and many people fell asleep. When the vision is not good, he is worried that he will step on someone.

This walking body swayed back and forth, deliberately slowing down the pace, a heavy person and a light person, groping in the night.

After a while like this, he had to admit a very helpless fact.

The thing is, he can't find where he slept before...

After standing here and hesitating for a while, he finally gave up resisting, groping all the way towards the wall, and then found a place where no one was around, sat down with his back against the wall, straightened his legs, With arms folded in front of him, he soon fell asleep...

When the sky was dark, people in the tribe had already started to get up, which meant that the people in the tribe were preparing to continue to work hard for the ongoing harvest.

Limp, who had fallen asleep against the wall, was awakened by these noises.

He rubbed his head and stood up from here.

At this time, with the still relatively weak light, I can barely see things.

Limp found his sleeping mat outside, and after lying down, soon fell asleep again.

By the time Lame woke up again, the sun had already risen quite a bit.

Many people in the tribe have already gone to the ground.

Those who are in charge of cooking are cooking there, and the smoke rises up one after another, with a smell of fireworks, which makes people feel comfortable when they look at it.

Waking up lame, he soon heard conversations from those who had been involved in building the ship with him.

They were wondering why everyone went to sleep, and why when they woke up, the rudder of the sailboat had been improved.

After someone suggested that someone got up in the middle of the night and did it secretly, some people began to guess who did it.

Listening to these people's discussions, the limp who was still lying there couldn't help showing some faint smiles on his face.

Then he sat up slowly, pretending to have just woken up, rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, then squinted his eyes and looked in the direction of the carpenter's room and the few people who were discussing there.

It's as if I don't know anything about what they said...

Han Cheng already knew about this.

Standing at the door of the carpenter's room, he saw that he limped here, and then pretended to be the same as the rest of the people, looking at the modified sailboat with a look of surprise, as if he didn't know anything Lame, couldn't help but smiled helplessly.

This guy!

It's been such a long time, and I still can't change this habit of eager to work.

For the behavior of lameness, Han Cheng was moved and felt particularly distressed...

"Clatter..."

With the sound of water for a while, the sailboat with its white sails lowered was once again lifted out by the tribe and put into the water.

Four sailors who had been driving the sailboat for most of the day before stepped onto the sailboat.

One of them carried a large rudder in the shape of a fish tail on his shoulders.

The person carrying the rudder came straight to the stern of the sailboat.

Lime stood on the edge of the pier, aloud instructing the man how to attach the rudder to the stern.

This matter was not difficult, and under his guidance, the man quickly completed it and installed the rudder on the stern.

It's just that at this time, the connection between the rudder and the stern wooden post has changed a lot since it was not modified last night.

The most notable change is that the iron rod originally used to fix the rudder and the wooden post was gone, and was replaced by a thumb-thick leather rope made of many thin leather ropes.

After the sailor installed and fastened the rudder, the other three sailors quickly raised the three fallen sails.

After seeing everyone was ready, one of them stepped onto the bow, jumped onto the pier, untied the cable, and threw it over the bow.

Then stretched out a leg and kicked on the bow without much effort, and the whole boat left the pier and slid towards the back.

And he also took advantage of this opportunity, and with a little effort on the pier with the other foot, the whole person came to the boat.

The sailor standing at the stern holding the upper handle of the rudder with both hands began to hold the handle of the rudder with both hands and imitated the appearance of a fish swimming in the water, swinging the rudder from side to side in order to achieve Make the sailboat turn.

At this time, the rudder and the wooden board made into the shape of a fish's tail had been inserted obliquely into the water, and the whole was submerged by the water.

As the man swayed from side to side, the fishtail-shaped rudder submerged in water swayed from side to side, moving the water, which really looked like a fish's tail swaying in the water.

After the leather rope at the joint replaces the iron bars worn there, it can maximize the left and right swing of the rudder.

Although it can't reach the level of a real fish, compared with the previous time, it has already made a big breakthrough.

This is the result of Limp thinking about it for a long time and spending a while transforming it.

Following the movement of the sailor at the helm, whether it was the people standing on the shore or on the pier, or the three sailors on the sailboat, all of them lifted their spirits and looked at the sailboat with piercing eyes, wanting to Seeing whether this kind of rudder works well, whether it can bring them a miracle!

A miracle happened soon!

"boom!"

A sound came from the pier by the river.

The sailboat that had just left the dock actually returned to the dock at this time, and made a very intimate contact with the dock.

It's like being extremely reluctant to be separated from the pier like this.

Looking at the prow of the sailboat that collided with the pier, a group of people standing here waiting to witness the miracle couldn't help but look at each other.

Not knowing what to say, the scene was silent for a while.

Didn't you say that the rudder is for turning?

Why did the sailboat not only fail to turn after it swayed, but instead returned back?

I waited a long time for someone to research and manufacture this thing that is specially used for turning the sailboat. Why doesn't it look like turning the sailboat at all, but like propelling the sailboat forward?

Han Cheng was also a little confused.

Logically speaking, no matter from the perspective of imitation biology, or from the knowledge about the rudder that I remembered, such things should not have happened.

The rudder is what is actually used to steer the boat...

But looking at the sailing boat that was in close contact with the pier in front of him, the affirmation in Han Cheng's heart became less firm again.

Could it be that I really remembered this matter wrong?

However, such doubts did not last long.

Not long after, Han Cheng's heart moved, and a picture suddenly appeared in his mind——

Under the darkness of night, a great river stretches across here like a pitch-black abyss.

There are snowflakes falling continuously in the sky.

There was a vast expanse of white snow on both sides of the river.

The dry and broken reeds, as well as the bare branches with fallen leaves, were all covered by heavy snow and lost their original shape.

It was at such a time that there were some creaking sounds similar to wood rubbing against each other on the silent river surface, which could be heard vaguely.

There were also some soft sounds of water waves.

A man stands at the stern of a ship, facing one side of the ship.

His hands were pressed on a slanted wooden bar at the stern, and he kept swinging from side to side.

Following this person's movements, the boat floating on the river kept moving forward.

When the boat reached the wide middle of the river, the man let go of the wooden handle and dropped the anchor into the river to stop.

Then he quietly came to the cabin with another person on the boat, tied up a sleeping person quietly, and took out a knife from under a wooden board, put it on the neck of the awakened person, and carried out robbery.

And asked the person if he wanted to eat Chaos or...

This is a scene from "Water Margin".

It tells the story that Song Jiang got a serious disease and was dying. In order to save Song Jiang's life, Langli Baitiao Zhang Shun crossed the river overnight to find the earth spirit star, and the genius doctor An Daoquan came to treat Song Jiang. Because he was too tired, he fell asleep in the cabin when crossing the river. , the story of the gangsters who were robbed of the river were tied up to rob gold and silver, and threw them into the river.

This TV screen that Han Cheng watched in his later life just appeared in Han Cheng's mind.

Han Cheng's attention was not on Zhang Shun, but on the blurry ship.

To be precise, it was placed on the wooden pole that was shaken by the boatman and controlled the boat to sail forward.

Moreover, the wooden bar in my memory is now gradually overlapping with the wooden bar behind the tail of the sailboat in front of me...

This thing does not seem to be called a rudder, but a scull!

It's the kind of scull that makes you feel happy with a little slap, hurts your body with a big slap, and the scull is wiped out in ashes!

This is also a thing that can control the boat to sail in the water!

This kind of thing is different from the oars. It is not on the sides of the ship, but is installed at the tail of the ship, just like the one installed on the sailboat of my tribe...

After recalling these memories, Han Cheng once again fell into a daze.

What is this all about!

I obviously wanted to get the rudder out, but why did I get out the scull in the end?

Han Cheng was confused, and everyone present was equally confused.

In this kind of confusion, several people on the boat looked at the technical bigwigs on the shore, seeing that these bigwigs didn't speak, explaining the current situation, after waiting for a while, standing at the bow of the boat That person came to the pier, stretched out his feet again, kicked the sailboat away from the pier, and retreated towards the back.

And he once again took advantage of the situation and stepped onto the sailboat.

The sailor who was holding the rudder or the scull at this time, waited until the force of the sailboat retreating completely disappeared, and the distance between the sailboat and the pier was about three or four meters, and then started again. Hesitantly and slowly shaking the wooden handle.

With his shaking, the sailboat quickly moved again, and continued to move towards the direction of the pier.

Seeing this, the man quickly stopped shaking to prevent the sailboat from sliding forward too much and hitting the pier again.

While maintaining this movement, the 'rudder' held by his hand was not kept in the center, but was subconsciously pressed tightly against the wooden post, and the wooden fish tail in the water also Hence the greatest deviation towards the right.

The boat is light in the water, especially the small boats with low water draft. After stopping the push, they can still slide forward for a long distance.

So even though the person behind who was shaking the 'rudder' stopped his hands and stopped his movements, the sailboat was still slowly gliding forward.

The object he wanted to hit was still the dock in front of him.

The person standing on the bow has already lifted one of his legs.

He was going to wait a little longer until the sailboat got too close to the pier and still couldn’t stop, so he put one foot on the pier and used his own strength to stop the boat, so as not to hit the pier again.

It was at this time that he suddenly discovered that the bow of the ship that was heading straight towards the pier was actually turning slowly, and the direction of the ship's turning was to the right, which was the depth of the river.

In the end, the raised foot of the man did not reach the pier.

When the bow of the boat was less than 30 centimeters away from the pier, it almost turned around completely. Instead of hitting the pier before, it changed to driving towards the river.

The people on the boat couldn't help looking up at the sail, wanting to see if it was because the wind was blowing the sailboat that it turned the sailboat around?

Obviously not, because the small piece of cloth used as a weathervane didn't flutter much at this time.

"It's the rudder!"

Han Cheng on the shore pointed to the fish tail that was tilted to one side, and said aloud.

It was also at this time that he realized that the tail of a fish can not only be used to turn, but can also drive the fish to run forward...
