Li Yang asked hurriedly, the old man rarely showed such a surprised look, even when he saw the puppets disassembled and reassembled, the words on it must be very important.
"I'm fine!"
The old man shook his head, sighed heavily, and continued to read the words on the tray.
Li Yang and He Jie looked at each other, but no one said anything. The old man was reading the content on it, which proved that he must recognize these words. As long as he recognized them, they could also know what was written on the mysterious puppet tray.
What is it.
At the same time, several people became more curious, and they all saw the old man's surprised action just now.
There were a lot of words on the tray, and they were all densely packed, but the tray was not big. The old man quickly read these words. After reading them, the old man let out a long sigh of relief.
"Old man, what on earth is this?" Li Yang asked hurriedly, and He Jie and the others also looked at the old man eagerly.
"This is an inscription from the Warring States Period. It is a very ancient writing that evolved from bronze inscriptions. It was commonly used during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but was rarely used after the Qin and Han Dynasties!"
The old man looked back at Li Yang, with a look of kindness in his eyes. This thing was not as inconspicuous as it seemed. It was really a good thing with a great origin.
"Grandpa He, what exactly is written on this?"
Wu Du asked urgently. He was not interested in what words were on it. Anyway, he didn't know these words, and he didn't want to know them.
What he wants to know most now is the content of these words.
Li Yang originally wanted to ask about the origin of this font and learn it at the same time, but when Wu Du asked, he had to give up. He could discuss these things with the old man later. As long as he wanted to learn anything, the old man would definitely teach him.
"This is written by the author himself. It can be regarded as an autobiography. This set of puppets is the work of a person in his later years. These words record this person's thoughts in his later years!"
He Lao raised his hand, pointed to the tray in front of him, and said softly. He was a little emotional when he said this, with a look of respect on his face.
"Autobiography, old man, whose autobiography is this?" Li Yang asked again.
The old man rarely behaves like this, and the old man's attitude now makes Li Yang even more curious about this thing, and he wants to know the content immediately.
"Gongshuzi!" the old man said with a faint smile.
"Gongshuzi?"
He Jie, Wang Feng, and Wu Du all looked confused. The name was very unfamiliar. None of them had heard of it. Li Yang, on the other hand, stayed there. The three of them didn't know who Gongshuzi was.
Yang Ke is very clear.
It was him. No wonder this set of puppets was so magical. Li Yang did not expect that the set of puppets he got at the auction would be his last work. After being dazed, Li Yang was even more excited.
"Li Yang, who is Gongshuzi?"
He Jie looked at the excited Li Yang and asked immediately. Li Yang's expression told them that Li Yang must know who the old man was talking about.
After calming down, Li Yangcai slowly said: "Gongshuzi, also known as Gongshuban, was a native of Lu during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. He was born in the Spring and Autumn Period and grew up in the Warring States Period. He was the most famous craftsman at that time, because he was a native of the Lu State, and many descendants
People call him Luban!"
"Lu Ban!" Wu Du suddenly screamed.
This time they were the only ones who were surprised. They didn't know Gongshuzi's name, but they had known Luban's name since they were young.
This is the originator of all carpenters, a great master. To this day, in large-scale wood-related projects, some people still sing Luban songs and use their ancestor to encourage themselves.
After several people were stunned, they all looked back at the wooden tray, with a burning heat in their eyes.
The work of the great master Lu Ban is still a work in his later years. This thing is no longer an inconspicuous wooden product. Anything associated with a celebrity will double its value, let alone something with such a magical effect and a direct relationship with the celebrity.
Already.
Even He Jie doesn't know how to evaluate the value of this set of things now. Anyway, he knows that if this thing gets spread, it will be worshiped by all the carpenters in the world. It is the work of Lu Ban, which can be said to be the best in the world at present.
The only existing work by Lu Ban.
As for whether this set of puppets was made by Lu Ban, they had no doubts. Only a master like Lu Ban could make such a magical puppet. Now even if others tell them that it was not made by Lu Ban, they will not
will believe it.
"Old man, what did Lu Ban write on it?"
Li Yang hurriedly asked again. He Jie and the others immediately looked at the autobiography written by Lu Ban. They were really curious about what this autobiography was.
Lu Ban is a legendary figure who has been mythologized in China. According to legend, Lu Ban is the God of Craftsman and can do anything.
Lu Ban made wooden magpies that could fly in the sky for three days without setting, he made carriages that could run by themselves, he made cows that could plow the fields, and he could also make fairy puppets that could make the sky rain or sweat profusely.
Legend has it that Lu Ban killed his parents because the things he made were so magical. The wooden carriage he made ran very fast, but his mother got on it and let the carriage run away and never came back.
The wooden kite he made could fly into the sky, but once his father got curious and flew too far on the wooden kite. It landed in Suzhou and was beaten to death as a monster.
These are all legends and not very reliable, but Lu Ban's achievements are indeed unmatched in the field of carpentry, even now.
Luban had many inventions, and many of the carpentry tools used today were first invented by Luban, including saws, rulers, drills, planers, shovels, ink fountains, etc. These tools have been passed down to this day and are still used by countless people.
In addition, he also invented many agricultural tools. The stone mill was invented by Lu Ban.
Before Luban, grains were put in stone mortars and pounded with rough stone sticks to turn them into powder. This was labor-intensive and labor-intensive, and very inefficient. After Luban invented the stone mill, it greatly improved
Work efficiency frees up more labor force.
After the emergence of stone mills, they have been used in China for more than two thousand years. Even when modern science and technology were so advanced, people were still using them, which shows how much this invention has impacted our lives.
Luban also invented a lock with a key. The lock cylinder is placed inside and only the key can be opened. This can replace human guards to keep many things. Today's locks are of various types, and they all have different shapes, but their original inventor
But it's Lu Ban.
In addition, Lu Ban also made many inventions in terms of weapons. Lu Ban was also good at carving. He once carved a portion of the "Kyuzhou Map" on stone. This should be the earliest stone map in China.
These are not legends, they are all basic common sense. They are recorded in historical materials. Lu Ban is very famous and has invented many things, but the world does not know much about his skills. Li Yang’s set of puppets can
Let the world truly experience Lu Ban’s magical craftsmanship.
"This thing was made by Lu Ban when he was sixty-three years old. He originally intended it for himself to play with, but during the making process he felt that he was getting older and the end was approaching, so he used his life experiences and part of his experience to
It is written on it, and I hope his disciples can continue to spread it!"
The old man sighed slightly. Lu Ban was definitely a great man. The last autobiography he left behind almost didn’t tell about his achievements. It was all about how some of his inventions came about, what he thought at the time, and how he feels now.
Where can we improve?
At the end, Lu Ban said that he was getting too old and would never be able to make anything else after making this set of mechanical puppets. This set could be regarded as his final work.
Mechanical Puppet Man is also the real name of this set of puppets.
After listening to the old man's story, He Jie and the others sighed heavily, admiring Lu Ban as a person, and at the same time lamented that his craftsmanship had almost reached the level of a god.
This set of puppets was made by Lu Ban using the mechanism technology he had mastered. Li Yang's previous feeling was not wrong, it was indeed related to the mechanism.
It is hard to imagine that one person can make such a complicated mechanical puppet. In Li Yang's view, Luban deserves the title of God of Craftsman and Wooden Ancestor. This is simply not the work of manpower.
"Although the rumors are a bit exaggerated, they are not necessarily all false. I don't believe that the wooden magpie made by Luban can fly, but I definitely believe that the wooden horse can run!"
Wang Feng also sighed and said slowly. He Jie and Wu Du both nodded in agreement. Flying things are too mysterious and there is no evidence yet. However, making something run by itself definitely has a big impact.
Perhaps, the puppet in front of you is the biggest evidence.
"You said, these puppets have made so many movements, where do they get their power?" Wu Du pointed at the puppet tray and asked suddenly.
The old man frowned, and He Jie and Wang Feng also looked confused.
No one really knows about this issue. This is not a battery-powered thing, it has a power supply. Just pulling the rope makes so many movements. According to normal understanding, after the metal ring is pulled, it is good for a puppet to move.
, how can it be possible to have so many puppets perform different actions at the same time.
"We will study the power issue later. Since the thing is here, we will definitely know the answer!"
The old man said softly that he didn't understand how those puppets made so many movements. I'm afraid only Li Yang could guess this question.
The mechanism inside is too complicated, just like dominoes, after the first one moves, the rest will move. There are countless wooden blocks inside, similar to pulleys and other small things. Under the influence of these things, unless the last wooden block is moved,
Tighten up, otherwise it won't stop.
Of course, Li Yang must not tell these things, and if he tells about his special abilities, it will be exposed.
