Stone told to Miss Aijiang Xue not to attack the wolves with the arrow. He jumped out of the carriage and squatted down. His voice made a squeaking sound. Several wolves pulled out and shook the tail and rushed to Stone.
One of the biggest wolves fanged screamed at the other wolves, and the other wolves squatted. The big wolf sniffed the smell of Stone. The two front paws were placed on the shoulders of Stone, sticking out the tongue and rubbing the cheeks of stone.
"Who broke my wolf army, defeated my interest?" Next to the reeds swaying, from the inside out of a young woman wearing clothing of Xia hunters.
"Are you Miss Chunlan Xiao?" Aijiang Xue got off the carriage and walked a few steps. She tried to do as Stone did, made a sound similar to wolf's, and squatted her body. There were also wolves coming to sniff the smell. Although they were friendly, they did not show the slightest intimacy and any hight respect.
"Chunlan, what's going on here, these are not like those from the regular family of the wolves in the territory, how did you gather them together?" Stone could see that these wolves used to be abandoned by some local wolf families. They are all lonely wolves from different parts of the region Juyan Lake.
"As your sister, I will tell you, you should learn this slowly." Chunlan slowly said, and then play along and two short whistles, the wolves slowly dispersed, disappeared behind the reeds not far away.
Stone tried to introduce Aijiang to Chunlan, but both of these two girls were quickly becoming friends as if they were close friends for many years.
Thes tribes said and smiled, sitting in carriages, and soon entered the village.
Xueshan and Kuoshui went to prepare a house for the guest, and the other people helped to unload the horses and donkeys.
Stone introduced Xue Aijiang to Hou Ye.
Hou Ye just finished the wood carving of the first part of the Adventures of the Bragging King. The paper has already been bought, he was waiting for the sample, so he was happy. He was going to open a bookstore in Blackwater City to print this wonderful book, wondering make a fortune. The author was the bragging prince Stone Xiao. Of course, this was still a secret.
Aijiang Xue felt a little surprised. Houye, a duke of Liao kingdom, was so bald, clothes patched several layers, and the eyelids were not dried up. This was a simply rough countryside old man without any aristocratic styles.
Houye did not care about the eyes of Aijiang, just asked the tribes to prepare a spacious and clean shack for this nice lady.
Ai Jiang said nothing, she just did not believe that Houye could arrange a nice and comfortable room for her.
She said she was going to be with Chunlan and staying together during the day and night. She also said that this was the meaning of Duke Li and his father Yuanli Xue : "Must learn to communicate with the wolf and become the founder of Wolf Studies of the world."
Wolf studies were very mysterious studies. People could learn a lot from the wolf and could apply it to military theory, business management, and just in everyday life. "We have to learn some skills from the wolf, and its ability is enough to prove that the wolf is a great research value." Aijiang said.
"In terms of military theory, such as the strategy of snoring, the attack, the teamwork, the reconnaissance ability, etc.. These strategies are the skills of the wolf that we can study." Chunlan Said
Stone said that the concept of the worlf studies might be too vulgar. It was better to call it zoology. He also talked about the areas covered by zoology that he had heard from his future world before h coming to this world. Many of these concepts could not be understood by Chunlan and Aijiang so quickly and effectively. They all felt that the knowledge of this bragging prince was very rich.
On the second day, Houye got up early to work on his storybook, and three young people, Stone, Chunlan, and Aijiang rode out of the village. Aijiang said that she hoped that the first thing was that she needed to realize the promise of Duke Li to teach Stone and tribes of Houjiaji how to use bow and cross-arrow of Xia kingdom.
Stone still remembered that Sir Yuan (a middle school history teacher of the 21th century) once said that Xia's weapons industry was the most advanced at that time. The technology of making crafts of bows, arrows, knives, swords, spears, armor far exceeded the contemporary Song and Liao. For the armor alone, the cold forging technique was used. Wearable and tough materials were used to wear the raised pieces of armor, which could easily change the direction of the arrows and make the arrow fall down.
The Xia cross arrow bow used the tough mountain mulberry as the bow, and the yak horn was fixed firmly at both ends, and the solid sandalwood was used as the bow, and hemp fiber was used as a string, the whole mechanic construction was light and strong.
The production process of military equipment was so complicated, but the techniques of its use were quite easy. Just needed to step on the front of the machine with one foot, installing the feather arrow, pulling the bowstring with both hands, pulling it onto the hooks mounted on the arm, then lifting the machine, aiming with help of sight, and pushing the index finger, and the feathered arrow would be launched.
Soon after, Aijiang taught Chunlan and Stone to use this arm, she said: "Now I should learn the skills of communicating with the tigers and wolves?"
Chunlan looked up and made a voice like a wolverine in his throat. Soon, the surrounding reeds and the dunes behind the sand dunes issued the same wolverine. After half an hour, the wolves who formed with the lone wolf came to Aijiang, Chunlan, and Stone.
