"Master Zhou, have those two watches been repaired?" The young man got straight to the point. The weapons apprentice who was working intently in the workshop turned his head and glanced at the young man. The gunpowder being mixed in his hand seemed to be progressing smoothly.
"Take it, it has been repaired a long time ago." Zhou Mimi enjoyed the strong tobacco and pointed to the small box on the shelf, "If you just want to make the watch hands move, there is no need to ask the watchmaker to do this little thing. But if you want to restore another function, ordinary watchmakers can’t do it, that’s not a compass.”
"But what is the purpose of the red hands on the dial?" Chu Qing held two steel watches in his hands and asked.
Zhou Mi moved his thumb and index finger like two struggling crab claws, "You can think of them as a pair of twins. They are exactly the same in shape and weight. When you leave my workshop wearing one of them, the rest will The watch will point you in the direction you are in, but I can’t be sure of the specific range. Anyway, I was standing at the east gate, and the red pointer just pointed at the location of another watch in the workshop. "
"That's great, Miyazuki...His Highness will probably like this thing!"
"Maybe it has other functions. I can't figure out how the craftsmen of the Ice Kingdom work. You can play with it."
Unexpectedly, the weapons master also had the skills to repair watches. After Chu Qing thanked Zhou Jinmi and his apprentices, he wanted to give one of the watches to Gong Yue immediately, but then he thought that she must be busy meeting with His Highness Lin Xuerou at the moment. The many nobles and adults who came to Jinmen to congratulate them might as well take advantage of the sunny weather and go for a drive in the city. After all, there is not much leisure time left in their adult lives.
The young man set off on the Blind Warrior motorcycle, and Jinmen was soon far behind him. The metal covering the front wheel reflected the dazzling light. He was aimless and free. Passing through the White Feather Cathedral where travelers stop, and driving past the trickling Origin Creek, there are vultures circling around the dilapidated and weathered ancient headless statues, and the blue sky and the ground seem to be a little closer.
The motorcycle parked next to the tributary of Yuanyuan Creek. Chu Qing leaned over to wash his cheeks. The cold stream water wetted his long black hair. When he raised his head, the clouds blocked the sunlight at some point. Suddenly, a harsh noise came from deep in the woods. The sound shot straight into the sky, but was melted by the dark green flames and failed to explode.
Red signal? ! The young man looked at the trajectory of the thick smoke. He knew the meaning of the signal. There were two types of flares equipped on the sentries. The one used to seek support was the green signal, which meant that surrounding companions were needed to go. It was generally used for ordinary communication. The trajectory of the red signal is flame, which represents encountering a powerful enemy.
He didn't carry a musket when he went out today, so Chu Qing held Xi Yu's sword hilt tightly in his right hand, abandoned the Blind Warrior motorcycle and ran on foot towards the depths of the forest where the signal was emitted.
The scene before his eyes was an invisible sentry lying on the ground, his life or death uncertain. Chu Qing recognized the sentry leaning against the tree on the other side. He was Gu Bing, who worked for the Gong family. He was born in Liwan.
"You...why are you here...Hurry, run quickly, go call others!" Watcher Nu Lan was also injured. His musket exploded, and the broken gun body fragments were scattered on the ground. The injury meant that he could only use his sword. Support the body so as not to fall.
"Throw away your sword." Chu Qing glanced at Nu Lan and then warned the attacker. He was a stranger he had never met before, standing among the three sentries he had defeated.
