"Look! The fog has dispersed!" Meng Shuo pointed at Feixialing. Ling Tong's eyes widened. He couldn't believe that such a thick fog was really made by people. Guo Jia nodded slightly: "It seems
The lord has succeeded, you two, immediately arrange the manpower to arrange the surroundings, and anyone who comes out must not be let go!"
Long Fei and the hostage walked in the dark tunnel for a long time, and finally came to a slightly wider place. A mottled light cast above their heads. Long Fei looked up and saw that it was a shaft, and there were several others around it.
There were exactly eight of the same caves. It seemed that this guy had not lied to himself, so he let go and blew out the lantern in his hand: "Where is it up there? Is there an ambush?"
The man quickly replied: "The top is the back mountain, where Mr. Ma lives. I really don't know if there is an ambush!"
"Up!" Long Fei winked, and the man had no choice but to climb up the ladder in the shaft step by step.
Yu Ji was looking through his collection of books in the house. The old man had a hobby and was particularly enthusiastic about the magical magic. He was almost familiar with everything from Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" to "The Art of Taiping". The old man's dream is to one day ascend like me.
In the fairy world, he became a god above mortals. He joined Hei Bing because Hei Bing could provide him with any books he wanted.
"Immortal! Immortal! It's not good, it's not good!" The two children rushed into the door in a panic, knocking down the books piled in the room, which he had just sorted and prepared to study in detail.
of.
Yu Ji looked angry: "You two have been studying Taoism with me for some time, why are you still so panicked?"
"Something big happened to the immortal!" A child stared with frightened eyes and pointed to the door. He stammered and didn't know what to say.
"I know there are people at the bottom of the mountain! Don't worry, as long as there are some clouds and mist, and the Bagua formation is used to supplement them, they won't be able to get up!" Yu Ji was very confident and signaled the two of them to pack away the bamboo slips they bumped into.
"The fog has dispersed! Our Feixialing clouds have dispersed!" He took a breath and then revealed his purpose.
When Yu Ji heard this, his eyes widened: "What? Say it again?"
Tong'er said it again, and Yu Ji hurriedly got up and ran out the door. Standing in the courtyard, he saw that the mist on the mountainside was slowly dissipating. His Bagua formation was broken, and the gathered air flow changed, creating
The mist rose immediately and soon disappeared into the sky. Things like water vapor came and went quickly. Before long, the trees on the mountainside could be faintly seen.
"This! This! What is going on?" Yu Ji panicked. Once the clouds and fog cleared, those at the foot of the mountain were likely to go up the mountain, and they would be exposed. The prestige they had built up in Jiangnan for a long time would disappear in an instant.
Wei Wuyou: "Quickly go to the back mountain to check! Let Mr. Ma go and check, quick!"
Feixialing is considered a sacred mountain, and there are many villages at the foot of the mountain. Everyone wants to get the aura of the gods. The people in the village are basically followers of Yu Ji. The fog in Feixialing has never dissipated for many years. And today
, the clouds and fog gradually dissipated, and after the common people saw it, it spread from ten to ten, and almost everyone in the nearby villages knew about it.
One by one, they stopped what they were doing and looked blankly at the movement on the mountain. They didn't know why. The old god had never mentioned this, so how could he have lost his fairy spirit? Some people speculated that because of the Feixia Ridge,
There were too many mortals, and the turbid air polluted the immortal energy, so the current situation occurred. Some people also speculated that the current lord Sun Quan was not in the right position, and the old immortal did not want to protect Jiangdong anymore, so he collected the immortal energy and prepared
Go somewhere else.
Everyone knelt on the ground and kowtowed in the direction of Feixialing, begging to keep the old immortal. But no one seemed to hear their voices, and the mist dissipated little by little, leaving only a thin layer.
"Go up!" Long Fei urged from behind. The guy in front just didn't want to continue climbing up. They were forced laborers captured by Black Ice. Their daily task was to add charcoal to the furnace in the cave so that the furnace would stay hot all year round.
The temperature is very high. They have never gone out since they came in. Someone brings food and water every day. They are never allowed to go out. If they dare to escape, they will be killed.
Long Fei took out his dagger and put it against the guy's waist: "Quick! If you don't go up, you will be killed now!"
The man had no choice but to climb up slowly and slowly stretched his head out of the shaft. He was cautious, as if he was afraid of disturbing anything. He turned his neck and looked around, but found nothing wrong, so he came up.
Fei climbed out of the shaft and took a deep breath. The smell and air inside were uncomfortable. The mountains had just been washed by water vapor, and the air was moist and sweet, which made it particularly comfortable to breathe into the lungs.
There was a hut next to the shaft. The well was disguised as a water well, and the windlass ropes were neatly equipped on it. The hostage was about to run away, but Long Fei grabbed him and pointed to the hut next to him: "This is Yu Ji's residence?
"
The man shook his head repeatedly: "No, the fairy grows outside the woods in front. This is Mr. Ma's place!"
"Mr. Ma? What are you doing?"
The man was trembling: "I don't know, I just heard that the things we use to collect water vapor are made by Mr. Ma. Sometimes he will go to our place to check. What he does at other times, I really don't know, please."
, just let me go! I’ll tell you everything I know!”
Long Fei looked at his pitiful look: "What? Don't believe me? I said I won't kill you unless I kill you, but I can be sure that as long as you leave my side, you will be dead if you can't leave Feixialing."
A different place!"
"Ah!" The man almost collapsed to the ground. Long Fei let him go: "You have finished speaking, and I have finished speaking. If you want to leave, you can leave." After saying that, Long Fei touched the side of the hut.
come over.
There was no guard, and there were a lot of wooden parts scattered around outside the hut, including round, square, flat, and even oval shapes. These things had strange shapes, and I didn’t know what they were used for. Among them, Long Fei also discovered
There are several things similar to gears. Although they don't look as sophisticated as the current gears, they are still quite exquisitely made. When they are stacked up in large and small sizes, they look like the chain plates of a speed-shifting bicycle.
Long Fei approached step by step and took a look inside the house. He saw a middle-aged man lying on the desk with his back to the door. He didn't know what he was doing. Long Fei looked at it for a long time. This man was so focused that he didn't notice that death was coming step by step.
Approaching him. Just as Long Fei was about to reach out and push the door open, a half-year-old child suddenly rushed out from the side room, holding two ball-like objects in his hands. He shouted happily while running: "Master, look
, look! I made it!”
The man did not raise his head. The child found a wooden caliper to measure left and right, and said this while measuring his mouth: "I said it will definitely succeed. Master, you can see that it is a complete circle."
The spherical shape is not a complicated thing in Long Fei's opinion, but consider that this was in the late Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago. Without any tools, he only relied on human eyesight and simple equipment to create a completely spherical shape.
It was definitely impossible. I didn't expect this child to actually make it. He actually had a tool similar to a caliper, which surprised Long Fei even more.
The hostage suddenly appeared behind Long Fei and accidentally broke a clay pot placed under the eaves. The sound alarmed the two people in the room. The people slowly raised their heads and looked outside the door. The child's face immediately became angry:
"These guys are careless every time they come here and always break something. Master, I will scold them."
As soon as he opened the door, he saw a blood-red dagger pointed at the tip of his nose. The child was stunned on the spot. As Long Fei walked in, the child hurriedly stepped back. It wasn't until Long Fei entered the room that the middle-aged man put down his hands.
He looked at Long Fei with the thing in his hand: "Who are you? Why have I never seen you before, where is Lao Li?"
The hostage hurriedly knelt down in front of the man: "Mr. Ma, please forgive me! I didn't bring him here intentionally. It's really..."
"Your surname is Ma?"
"Xia Majun, your Excellency, who is...?"
"My name is Long Fei, and I came up the mountain this time to get Yu Ji's head!" When Long Fei heard the name Ma Jun, he thought it sounded familiar, but he couldn't figure out where he had heard it.
"Really!" The child behind Ma Jun suddenly said.
Long Fei smiled at the child and nodded: "Are you also from Heibing?"
"That's not true!" The child seemed to be bolder, revealing half of his head from behind Ma Jun: "My master and I were both captured by them and made mechanisms for them. We have lived here for several years, and we have also lived here for several years.
I wonder how Master Wife and the others are doing?"
"Can you make a mechanism?"
The hostage said hurriedly: "Those things in the cave were made by Mr. Ma. No matter what it is, Mr. Ma can make it just by looking at it."
"Ma Jun! Ma Jun!" Long Fei muttered the man's name twice, thinking of working as a government agency. Suddenly he thought of a person. Ma Jun, courtesy name Deheng, was a man from Fufeng during the Three Kingdoms period. He was born in poverty and had a lot of money.
He stuttered, so he was not good at speaking but good at thinking. Ma Jun was a wizard during the Three Kingdoms period and had the reputation of a mechanical master. In those Three Kingdoms novels, Ma Jun is often credited with having talents like Ma Jun who are good at design and manufacturing.
pride.
Many of Ma Jun's inventions played a considerable role in the development of productivity at that time. When he was in Luoyang, because his family was poor, he improved the silk machine and became famous for it. He also invented the drainage and irrigation water tanker, which was called "Turnover".
It uses running water as power to continuously and automatically lift water, which is easy to operate and greatly increases efficiency. It also researched and manufactured a compass cart, improved Zhuge Liang's repeating crossbow, and Liu Ye invented a stone-pulling cart for siege. The "water-driven cart" he created
"Baixi" uses water as power and mechanical wooden wheels as transmission devices, so that puppets can perform automatically. The concept is very clever. Because he had deep knowledge in transmission machinery, people at that time spoke highly of him and called him
It is "a clever name in the world".
Long Fei looked Ma Jun up and down with a smile on his face, which made Ma Jun and others a little scared.
