"Li Ang is the inventor of model aircraft, and his understanding of model aircraft is naturally much better than yours."
In Haotian Taoist Temple, Yu Feiyu frowned and said, "He just provoked you in class, and you were fooled like that?"
Bian Chenpei pursed his lips slightly, with a slightly unconvinced expression on his face.
"Chen Pei, you are still too young..."
Another person shook his head and said, "Although Li Ang is about the same age as you, his methods are much more sophisticated than yours.
First, verbal provocation to arouse your anger,
Then throw out the bet and put forward seemingly impossible conditions, so that you can't stand down and can only agree.
As for the bet, ordinary teenagers might say something like apologizing and admitting their mistakes, or blocking the reputation of the School Palace and Taihao Mountain.
But he proposed to use money as a bet.
Why?
Because it doesn’t hurt to apologize and admit a mistake,
And the reputation of the Academy and Mount Taihao is not something you two can represent.
Even if you agree, we can contact the academy to cancel it on the grounds that gambling is too frivolous.
Now that you are betting money, it has become a private matter between you two students.
It is inconvenient for us, the Taihaoshan Mission, to intervene."
The speaker is a few years older than Bian Chenpei. He is tall and tall, handsome in appearance, and has a gentle tone with a hint of irresistible sternness.
His name is Shangguan Yangyao, and he is a disciple of the holy priest. He has high hopes in this academic exchange.
Yu Feiyu is the team leader and will not participate in the activities. Hearing this, he looked at the other party and asked, "How do Yang Yao think we should deal with it?"
Whether this matter is considered big or small depends on how you look at it.
"My suggestion is to let nature take its course."
Shangguan Yangyao said: "Since you have already agreed, you cannot go back on your word in advance. The key to the problem lies in whether the Academy Li Ang can build a flying model aircraft that meets the requirements."
"..."
Yu Feiyu frowned slightly. He would read every issue of Neo-Confucianism journals without missing any issue.
But even for him, it is hard to imagine that there is such a kind of aircraft that can fly without talismans or threads, just relying on the human power of ordinary people.
Is it possible to reach the sky by stepping on the left foot and the right foot?
Yu Feiyu shook his head, thinking of Cardinal Xinxiu who had become the shopkeeper, and sighed silently in his heart.
————
The same Haotian Taoist temple, deep in the courtyard.
Under one person, and above tens of thousands of people, Cardinal Xinxiu of the Haotian Dao Sect is sitting alone, making tea for himself.
There are four cardinal priests in Taihao Mountain.
Among them, the Cardinal of Sacraments is in charge of all kinds of liturgical rituals.
Judge the cardinals and hunt down heretics and evil spirits.
Cardinal Ju Yu, interpreting the omens of Haotian,
Cardinal Xinxiu compiled classics for hundreds of millions of believers and taught them how to live.
This also means that Cardinal Xinxiu is the most perfect Haotian believer, and his every word and deed is fulfilling Haotian's will.
Wow.
The water from the teapot poured into the teacup. Cardinal Nobuyoshi held the edge of the porcelain cup with his right hand and gently held the bottom of the porcelain cup with his left hand. He slowly raised the teacup and stared at the floating tea leaves in the cup.
His movements were very slow, but every move was extremely precise, without the slightest deviation, as if it had been measured with a ruler.
When he was a child studying in Taihao Mountain, his peers often used this to laugh at him, saying that he was a puppet made by a puppet master and his movements were stiff and dull.
But he has never been angry. Summer insects cannot talk about the ice, and well frogs cannot talk about the sea.
Those people do not really understand the greatness of Haotian, and regard the life given by Haotian as something personal and something that can be wasted casually.
The only difference is that I, as the son of a small herdsman, was allowed to enter Taihao Mountain to study, starting from the position of acolyte, monk, deacon, priest, officiant, priest, and finally cardinal.
Along the way, we have gone through countless hardships and obstacles. If we take any wrong step, we may fall into the abyss.
The dignified manner that I maintain is far from being able to repay Haotian's gift.
Only by serving Haotian wholeheartedly all the time can we continue to receive Haotian's favor.
Even, the position of leader above the cardinal...
Click.
Cardinal Xinxiu looked down and saw that the small porcelain cup in his hand cracked without any warning.
The thick and mellow amber-like tea is dripping continuously from the cracks onto the coffee table.
"..."
Cardinal Xinxiu frowned slightly, and a haze appeared inexplicably in his heart.
With a wave of his palm, the extremely pure Haotian magic was naturally released.
The tea cup was connected to the tea tray, and was annihilated into ashes, as if it had never appeared.
Is this a sign?

"Risheng, what are you choosing?"
In the forging workshop of the Academy, Song Shaoyuan and others looked at Li Ang, who was leisurely pushing a trolley, and couldn't help but ask.
"I'm choosing materials for making aircraft."
Li Ang pushed the cart and walked through the shelves in the forging workshop, picking materials from the shelves.
Metal pipes, wood, silk thread, paper, cloth, belts...
The trolley was quickly filled with all kinds of sundries.
When one car couldn't fit in, Li Ang gave orders and asked the friends present to take action, taking materials of different types and materials from the shelves.
Ji Linglang couldn't help but ask: "With so many things, how big of a model aircraft do you want to make for Risheng?"
"The bigger, the better."
Li Ang spread the white paper on the table, took out the charcoal pen, and carefully copied the drawings on it.
Tap tap tap.
The sound of footsteps came from far away, and Siye Tantai Leshan and Su Feng walked into the forging workshop.
Tantai Leshan's expression was as usual, but Su Feng was in high spirits and shouted as he walked: "Risheng, I heard that you were in class and you were quarreling with people from Taihaoshan, why don't you come to Taiwan?
Yes, very good, I have the same style as when I used to fight with the Confucian scholars and chase them with a frozen beef tongue."
"Tantai Siye, Dr. Su."
Li Ang smiled and waved. He invited these two people to build the aircraft, and they also need some help from more senior monks.
"It's a little late."
Tantai Leshan explained, "People from Luli Academy are coming to Chang'an, so they have to go and greet them."
"Oh."
Li Ang nodded. Luli Academy is the second largest academy in the Yu Kingdom with the authority to teach cultivation methods, and it has a close relationship with the Academy.
"In addition, I brought you the most advanced Golden Chamber Forge you wanted."
Tantai Leshan placed a square metal box on the table, "What do you want me to build?"
"This."
Li Ang held up the drawing paper, on which were drawn dozens of complicated metal structures. Detailed dimensions were marked next to each metal structure.
"So detailed?"
Tantai Leshan took the drawing paper and frowned slightly. According to the drawing instructions, these metal parts must be as fine as one thousandth of an inch, which is close to the size of a hair.
It is impossible for ordinary craftsmen to polish such a large piece of metal structure with such high precision using ordinary tools.
Only he, a Zhuxiao realm monk who is proficient in engineering, can use the iron melting and casting techniques to cast it in a short time with the help of the Golden Chamber Forge.
"Yes."
Li Ang rubbed his palms and said with a smile: "After all, it is a thing that is meant to carry people flying, so it is better to be more precise."
"The crank, flywheel...these structures are very similar to the thing we are making."
Su Feng glanced at the drawings and pondered: "As for these two metal parts, what are they called?"
"Crankset, chain."
Li Ang said: "These are only part of the aircraft and will need to be assembled at that time."
And when they are assembled, they become half a bicycle.
