Chapter 166 Strenuous Task
Chapter 166 A hard task
Wang Ge returned to the courtyard. Mrs. Chen, who was riding her candlelight last night, was busy in the production area. The two of them glanced at each other and nodded, as if they had greeted each other.
After entering the house, she wrapped her double cloth around her right wrist and tied it tightly to prevent excessive movement from aggravating the pain. Then she dragged the basket to the production area to the farthest position from Chen Xiaozi so as not to influence each other.
Before Wang Ge left home, he made the tool stool parts, which were very strong after being spliced with mortise and tenon. He took out the bamboo strips with appropriate width and width of the bamboo strips, cut them into five sections, and then polished them.
First make the arms of the "Beast". Each bamboo arm is two inches long, three inches wide and one cent thick. If you can't use force with your right hand, she will hold a bamboo knife on both feet and hold a bamboo strip with her left hand to polish it.
Then make the legs of the beast. Just make the standard similar to the arms, not that strict, but you have to scrape each of the legs with a curve, which makes you look different from the arms at a glance.
Then there is the torso of the beast and the monkey head. The task requires "smart" and you don't have to cause trouble to pursue the lifelike appearance of a macaque. That is to lose the truth and go to the end.
As he made the instrument step by step, Wang Ge became more and more convinced of his speculation.
This luck task tests creativity and imagination, not a delicate and elegant appearance.
When the five bamboo strips are ready, they are assembled. Pick out a long bamboo stick from the basket and cut it off from the middle. The length and thickness of the two sticks are about the same as the chopsticks (chopped sticks). Then take two wide bamboo pieces, which are curved, and buckle them on the tool stool to stabilize.
After choosing, tie two circles of hemp ropes to fix them, and drill holes in the middle of them with the narrowest flat chisel. The bamboo has the inertia of splitting, so the movements should be lighter when drilling. It is better to drill the small first than to drill the large.
Punch the two long bamboo sticks just now into the two arc bamboo pieces and put them aside for a while.
Next, drill holes on the first five bamboo strips. She definitely couldn't use a flat chisel. She had bamboo strips in her bag, but she still clamped the bamboo knife with her feet and polished the thinnest bamboo strip into a bamboo needle.
The bamboo is hard, so use the tip of the bamboo needle to slowly grind the holes on the bamboo strips to penetrate the twine.
The arms of the two beasts were drilled into three holes.
Two bamboo legs each drill one hole in the uppermost position.
The upper and lower ends of the torso must also be drilled: the left shoulder penetrates to the right shoulder, and the left hip penetrates to the right hip.
Because the torso is thick, the tip of the bamboo needle must be replaced. If you drill for a while, the tip will become dull and you need to keep sharpening again.
The bamboo needle was polished and the bamboo knife was squeezed into the bamboo knife and cooperated with the left hand.
When drilling, you have to fix the bamboo strips on the tool stool and tie the hemp rope tightly.
This step is switched cyclically, and she cannot use force below her right wrist, so the process of making the device is very slow.
Fortunately, there was no limit on the duration of the task. Wang Ge calmed down and came a little bit by bit, blew away the bamboo chips every few times.
More than an hour later, Ao Jiangniang returned to the courtyard, and Wang Ge also drilled holes.
Final Step: Assemble them with hemp rope.
The beast has three holes on its arms, and the top one is installed on both sides of the shoulders of the torso. First, thread the hemp rope into the torso, then each of them, tie the knots to both sides, and cut off the excess rope head.
The hips of the torso are also first penetrated through the hemp rope, and then penetrate the holes at the top of the bamboo legs on both sides, breaking the knots to cut off the excess rope head.
The holes in the middle and below are crossed with a long hemp rope. Where are the two ends of these two long hemp ropes tied to each? They are two vertical bamboo sticks that have been placed on the ground and are ready for use.
After the two long hemp ropes are tied tightly, they should be parallel, with a rope on the top of the vertical stick and one inch away from the parallel rope below.
At this time, the prototype of an absolutely "smart" bamboo beast... came out.
The rest was to rub a tail with a hemp rope. Cough! Wang Ge scanned the courtyard, and no one was watching her. She quickly dripped a little bit of her nose at the "root of the tail" and pressed it on the "monkey butt" while it was hot.
After a few breaths, I got stuck in prison.
Finally, between the hemp rope in the middle of the hole at the bottom of your arms, cough! Then dip a small piece of hemp rope with your nose, thicken the rope, so that your arms will not be tied inward.
Don’t ask why there is snot in this season. This thing can be snot in any way, regardless of the season.
She tried to turn the beast's head down and her feet upward.
let go.
Due to the elasticity of the hemp rope, the beast immediately looks like a horizontal bar athlete, flying up and down between the hemp ropes, pull-ups, 360 degrees of air rotation, abdomen around the bar... and other difficult movements are nothing to do!
If this toy is not agile, how can you say it is agile?
Madam Meng also came back. At the same time, Madam Xu and Madam Xu saw Wang Ge pulling the bamboo monkeys and came over together, and were amazed.
"Is this your task?" asked Mrs. Meng.
"Um."
Mrs. Xu was glad for her: "You are so lucky. You are carving monkeys, not carving cranes."
Wang Ge smiled but didn't explain.
Madam Meng asked: "Did your hand be injured?"
Wang Ge happened to be tired slowly, so he briefly mentioned the incident of being dragged down in the morning.
Mrs. Chen came back after handing over the task and said, "It turns out that it was you who was pushed down. Don't worry, that person was driven away and many people saw it."
Madam Meng looked scared and said, "It's great. If you keep such an unrighteous person here, you will harm Wang Zhunzhishi today and will definitely harm us tomorrow."
Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Chen nodded: "What I said."
Wang Ge smiled gratefully at Miss Meng. Once this was passed, no one thought she was aggressive and used this "small matter" to force a craftsman to leave.
Mrs. Chen asked: "Are you going to hand in the mission now? Do you use me to help you? It should not be considered a violation of the rules, right?"
"I only completed half of it, and I still have to continue working hard." Wang Gexie got ready and began to make the word "其".
The rest of them no longer bothered her.
The task material contains several characters, but the word "典" is small seal script, which is different from the other official characters. This is also one of the reasons why Wang Ge guessed that there was another solution to the task.
The word "carving" is more difficult than making bamboo monkeys. Especially the radical "worm" is twisted than living insects.
The task allows both bamboo and wood. Wang Ge Qici bamboo is used to change camphor wood. The wooden blocks are placed on the surface of the tool stool, stand up, ride on, and tighten the wooden blocks with both legs, and cut them with the wooden handle copper saw that they were rewarded before.
Cut enough materials and it is even more difficult to carve.
You can no longer use hemp rope to fix the wood, because no matter how tight the tie is, the wood will move with the iron knife.
No matter how difficult it is, there will be a solution.
When your wrist twisted, you pressed the wooden block with the forearm above your wrist and started!
Focus on it in one go.
The carving part of "worm" and the carving part of "银", and the "银" in the small seal script are combined together, but it is better to carve the curve than to separate the parts.
It must be noted that neither "worm" nor "stew" can be rigid and must be able to move.
The trick to move is to add hollow chains at every other location, and use chain buckles to connect strokes. Carving chain buckles that can move with whole wood is one of the basic skills of wood carvers.
"Hu..." I kept blowing away the wood chips to see the carved shape clearly.
Madam Meng brought her lunch and filled her with water.
After Wang Ge thanked her, she didn't eat or drink. She was used to being on guard, and the task rules were not allowed to be assisted. What if the dietary help was considered? Then she would not die unjustly.
Although the word "diamond" is troublesome, it takes a little shorter time than that of "diamond". Of course, if her right hand is not damaged, the total duration of this task can be reduced by more than half.
The buckles are just right for wearing hemp ropes.
Like the effect of bamboo monkeys, the character "光" churns and jumps in two hemp ropes, and stabilizes the hemp rope. They are combined into a "光" with an elongated effect.
After Wang Gequan finished his work, he found that Meng Nuli was already standing in the courtyard.
"Meng Jiangli, this is my task." She handed over the bamboo slips of the task.
"I know this task. Both of these tools have passed. Come here, please pass on it and learn how Wang Zhun Zhishi solved this problem. This task form will not appear again in the future." The last sentence was extremely harsh, and it was actually said to Mr. Zheng, who failed in Diaohe yesterday.
Meng Nu Li’s attitude puzzled the already depressed Mrs. Zheng. What can I learn? If she had the option to be a monkey, she would do it!
