As the two doors slowly opened, everyone became more and more disappointed...
"It's so ordinary. Is there really a treasure here?" Shibaqi couldn't help but said in disappointment.
Feng Qingchen nodded in agreement: "It is indeed very ordinary."
The Nine Heavens is no different from a palace. When the two doors open, there is a square paved with bluestones. There is a white jade avenue in the middle and gravel paths on the left and right sides, just like the inner city of the palace.
The road in the middle is the Imperial Road, and the left and right sides are for civil and military officials. At the end of the road are still steps, probably ninety-nine steps. There are two bronze statues of dragon and phoenix on the left and right of the steps.
This is a miniature version of the imperial palace. Why is it called the Nine Heavens?
"Ahem..." Uncle Nine Emperors reminded everyone that they were not here to visit, but to hunt for treasures.
"Go in."
The Eighteenth Cavalry didn't say another word, and walked quickly in front to clear the way for Uncle Nine Emperors and Feng Qingchen. Snow Wolf followed obediently at Feng Qingchen's feet, looking here and there from time to time, as if looking at something.
They all look strange.
The group of people quickly walked into the main hall, which was still empty. However, in the room behind the main hall, Shibaqi found several large boxes. The boxes were not filled with jewelry, gold and silver, but books, boxes and boxes of books.
.
"Interesting." Feng Qingchen was quite interested in these books. These books were all ancient books. Each one had a lot of history, but it was very well preserved. Although the paper was a little dry, it was not damaged. Feng Qingchen opened it casually.
A book that is astounding at first sight.
"Uncle Nine Emperors, come quickly..." Feng Qingchen held the book and shouted.
Uncle Nine Emperors and Xuan Shaoqi came over at the same time. Feng Qingchen quickly handed the book to them: "Look, this book records many methods of iron smelting, sword preparation, and refining of refined iron."
Knowledge is productivity. Feng Qingchen is no stranger to this saying. Because of Feng Li's clan, Feng Qingchen knows a little about making weapons and making iron. When she made a weapon shovel, she wanted to use fine steel, but she gave it a try.
Countless methods failed, and in the end I had to make do with ordinary iron.
The smelting method proposed in this ancient book can not only purify iron, even find suitable materials, but also make steel.
"It's amazing. How did the previous dynasties find these ancient methods?" Feng Qingchen became more and more surprised as he looked at it. There were not only methods of making iron, but also improvements to weapons. He just opened a book and took out the things inside, which was enough.
Shock the world.
only……
The weapons and iron-making skills of the previous dynasty were so powerful, why did the Four Kingdoms retreat after they gained the world?
The swords and guns used by the soldiers of the Four Kingdoms were made of the most ordinary iron, and their sharpness was far inferior to those recorded in these books.
In addition to weapons, there are also books on agriculture, the promotion of farm tools, how to increase the yield per acre, what kind of land is suitable for growing what kind of food, when to fertilize, how to care for it...
There are books on industry, agriculture, commerce, water conservancy... all walks of life. The things in the books are beneficial to the country and the people. If you act according to the methods recorded in the books by the previous dynasty, it is impossible for the people to go hungry, and the combat effectiveness of the army can at least be
Raise one level up.
However, none of these things that could change the current situation of the country and the lives of the people were handed down, and the emperors of the four kingdoms received nothing.
"The emperors of the Four Kingdoms destroyed not only the kingdoms of the previous dynasties, but also the civilizations of the previous dynasties." The book records that in addition to weapons, agriculture-related matters were promoted by the previous dynasties, but only a few people knew the core technologies.
The backup books are in the hands of the emperor and cannot be read by others.
The Four Kingdoms overthrew the previous dynasty, destroyed books related to the previous dynasty, and also destroyed these books that were beneficial to the people.
"Only books? With these alone, we cannot let the descendants of the Lan family take over the world." Xuan Shaoqi walked around the first floor and found that this floor was full of books. He was quite puzzled.
The spread of these books can indeed create a prosperous age. However, the previous emperor left this place probably not to teach future generations how to manage the country, but to let them seize the country.
"There is a second level." Uncle Nine Emperors knew very well the usefulness of these books. The weapons and warships built according to the methods in the books can be stronger than any country in the Nine Provinces continent. Give him time, and he can use the books.
knowledge to create a country with strong military force and rich people.
Of course, he wants more than just this. What he lacks now is time. To turn the things in the books into reality, he needs to gather all the skilled craftsmen in the world, and he also needs time...
"Pack up these books, we are going to take them all away." No matter what treasures lie ahead, Feng Qingchen does not intend to leave these books behind.
These are not scientific books, nor do they talk about ideals of life. They are the crystallization of the wisdom of previous dynasties for thousands of years, and we cannot allow civilization to break down here.
Uncle Nine Emperors has no objections to this. He must take these books away. He is an ambitious man. After unifying the Nine Provinces, he hopes that his country will be rich and powerful and can be passed down from generation to generation...
Escaping from the books on the first floor, Uncle Nine Emperors and Feng Qingchen came to the second floor. The palace door on the second floor was locked. There was also an hourglass device on the door. There was still some dirt inside. It can be seen that these
Someone must have been to this place. In other words, the treasures of Jiuchongtian were actually saved bit by bit by the previous emperors.
"We need to bleed again." Feng Qingchen looked at Jiuhuangshu sympathetically. Jiuhuangshu said nothing, picked up the knife and cut...
The blood is filled and the hourglass is turned upside down. When the blood inside is empty, the door to the second floor is opened. This floor is different from the one downstairs. The second floor is where the treasure is hidden. The huge space is divided into rooms.
When you push the door open and go in, you see piles of weapons inside the house.
Knives, swords, spears, bows, armor... Weapons commonly used in the army are all here, and there are a lot of them, at least tens of thousands of each. When the Eighteen Cavalry saw those bows, they couldn't move their feet.
The bows they used were the best in the Kyushu Continent, but they were nothing compared to the bows made by the previous dynasties.
"The steel used to make weapons is refined steel and refined iron using the methods in the book." The gleaming swords and guns have not rusted after being stored for so long. In addition to the special place and easy preservation of things, the material itself is also one of the reasons.
.
"With these ready-made weapons, Dongling can crush any country in Nanling and Xiling in an instant." Xuan Shaoqi casually took out a steel knife. It was not heavy in weight, but its sharpness was rare.
Feng Qingchen nodded and continued: "When you find the iron ore, change all the weapons in the army. You will not be afraid of the soldiers who went up to Beiling."
"These armors are light, but invulnerable. It's a good thing." Men are naturally obsessed with weapons. Seeing all kinds of weapons piled up in the room, Xuan Shaoqi and Shiba Qi were all excited, and they couldn't wait to use these weapons now.
Go to the battlefield and see their power.
Finally finding something that could be put to immediate use, Uncle Nine Emperors' paralyzed face became softer and softer.
It's not that the books on the first level are useless, it's just that it takes time to apply the knowledge in the books into practice. What he lacks most now is time. He must have those books, but also weapons, gold and silver, and manpower and food.
He was looking forward to what was in the other seven floors...
