Gu Chen, who had black streaks all over his head, urgently stopped the guards' brutal operations.
Originally, from the standpoint of an invited guest, it was not easy for him to interfere in Wu's housework, but as a science and engineering student, he really couldn't let that absurd situation unfold before his eyes.
Probably influenced by the customs of the Southern Barbarians, many residents of Liyang are believers in the idea that "power can produce miracles". This is no problem when used in marches and battles, but the machinery itself is a precision creation that strictly follows mechanical logic, even if it does not work well.
There are bound to be reasonable fault points. If you try to use force to break through the fault, the result will only be that the entire mechanical framework of the machine will collapse.
In other words, if Gu Chen hadn't urgently called off the head of the palace guard, the water gate mechanism might have exploded and disintegrated.
It's a pity that there are very few people who can understand Gu Chen's contribution to saving Shuimen Jishu and everyone's fate. Including the head of the palace guards, they all stared at him with displeasure, "What is this guy's background?" On the contrary,
The waiter who led the way watched this scene with interest not far away.
"My name is Gu Chen, and I am the master."
Seeing that the waiter had no intention of helping, Gu Chen had no choice but to introduce himself.
"Huh? Yes, it's Mr. Fangshi?"
"I'm very sorry, I was rude."
Master Fang has a high prestige in Chenghuang Kingdom, and the attitude of the guards became respectful on the spot. As for the middle-aged female officer in charge next to him, she looked up and down Gu Chen, who claimed to be Master Fang, as if to judge whether he was trustworthy or not.
Reliable.
The middle-aged female officer has a chubby face and a slightly flat nose. Her height is similar to that of the palace guard next to her, but her banner is more than twice that. She feels much "stronger" despite weighing easily over two hundred kilograms.
Too "obese". Gu Chen, who was being looked at by her, subconsciously thought of those brave aunts among the fighting nations on the earth who could carry an entire log on one shoulder, and couldn't help but gasp in his heart.
Fortunately, the female officer only looked at Gu Chen for a moment before making a judgment.
"So, this seemingly great Shoushi guy, can you fix Minato?"
"...You have to check to find out."
Gu Chen nodded slightly. Although he didn't want to cause trouble, he was actually riding a tiger from the moment he called the guards to stop, so he bit the bullet and walked towards the water gate. The guards gave way respectfully, mixed with curiosity and vigilance.
His eyes hurt Gu Chen's back.
They all pretended that they "looked great", but it would be embarrassing if they couldn't repair it properly. Gu Chen thought a little depressedly, but fortunately, mechanical engineering was his profession, and he didn't feel guilty when doing it.
Gu Chen squatted down in front of the machine pivot, carefully removed the protective partition at the bottom, and looked inside. Inside the machine pivot was a gear transmission device just as Gu Chen expected, and the structure was simple enough to be seen at a glance. Gu Chen glanced over
The gears, which are made of solid wood, finally fall on a thick pivot that looks like a driving shaft.
From a mechanical structure point of view, this pivot should be the power source of the gear set. Unfortunately, so far, Gu Chen’s craftsmanship talent has been focused on refining medicine, and his understanding of Yunqi is quite lacking. But considering that Brahma
The fact that there is someone in hiding who can be consulted at any time is not a problem at all.
"Yu, do you recognize that one?"
Gu Chen concentrated his consciousness and called to the guardian of the rainbow ship. The direct connection established through the planetary spirit surge had a speed far superior to that of the optical fiber network, and there was a response almost as soon as Gu Chen's thoughts moved.
"Definitely. The structure of this object is the same as the fifth generation improved 'Huang Pivot', but the craftsmanship is quite rough."
When Yu answered, information related to the "Huang Pivot" also popped out directly from the sea of Brahma Tibetan consciousness.
The ancestors who established the planetary network and the Brahma tree also created many mechanical units that utilize the power of the spirit Brahma. The "Huang Pivot" is a widely used type of unit. As long as you concentrate on the energy, it can automatically rotate.
It is quite similar to the motor on earth, so it is often used as the power unit of complex mechanisms. However, if you want the rotor to continue to rotate, you must constantly concentrate on the energy, and even the most powerful warrior cannot last for half a day.
, in terms of sustainability, it is inferior to electric motors or internal combustion engines.
Of course, it is not a big problem to control the short-term opening and closing of the water gate.
"……I see."
After browsing the watcher's information, Gu Chen looked at the Huang Pivot a few more times, then stood up and left the Minato Pivot.
"Don't you need to check?"
"No, the fault is not here."
Yu's curious inquiry came from the sea of consciousness, while Gu Chen shook his head.
There are scorch marks from friction at the joints of the Huang Pivot Rotor. Although the origin is from the previous barbaric operations of the guards, judging from the torque that can be output by concentrating Yunli, there is no problem with the function of the Huang Pivot Rotor. As for those
There is nothing wrong with the gear mechanism that is clearly visible at a glance. Judging by the troubleshooting method, the fault point should be outside the mechanism.
With this judgment, Gu Chen came to the water gate iron gate.
Wu Mansion is the center of Liyang Territory, and the waterway leads directly to the heart of Wu Mansion. Its water gate is blocked by a heavy iron fence two fingers thick. The iron fence weighing several tons penetrates directly into the bottom of the river. It cannot be shaken by human power.
It relies on the winch at the hinge to lift it up with an iron chain. In order to prevent the grille from shaking left and right when it is raised, limit devices are also installed on both sides of the water gate.
The problem now is that no matter how hard the guards try, the winch cannot raise the grille, so several box boats are crowded in the waterway outside the mansion. Several boatmen stand on the bows of the boats, looking anxiously at the master behind the grille.
Gu Chen walked over and took a rough look at the water gate grille. The entire water gate is divided into inner and outer sides, and one side is divided into the north and south sides. Therefore, it is difficult to grasp the overall situation of the water gate with the naked eye. However, at this time, it is used for exploration.
Fan Neng can just come in handy.
"Wind touch, activate."
Gu Chen quietly activated the wind touch, and an invisible breeze surged out around him. The breeze swirled towards the water gate, passed through the gaps in the grille, and explored it up and down in the blink of an eye. Even those who could not see
The hidden corners he reached were also understood by Gu Chen through Feng Huo's unique perception.
After a few breaths, Gu Chen stood up with a sigh. After looking around, he picked up a big pebble from the shore and slammed it down on the water gate grille while everyone was watching in shock! The sound of banging on the door shook half of the Wu Mansion. At the same time,
, seeing that the master of unknown origin treated an important leader so roughly, the guards all changed their expressions.
"Hey! Don't stop yet..."
"Okay, let's try focusing on Yunli in that direction."
Before the leader of the guards could say something to stop him, Gu Chen threw away the pebbles in his hand and turned around to say hello.
The leader of the palace guard, who suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention, looked at Minato's pivot with some confusion. Then he was pushed hard by the female officer next to him who shouted, "Why are you still standing there?" before hesitatingly walked over and grabbed the handle.
Pay careful attention to your potential.
All the guards looked at their leaders with bated breath. If you look carefully at the soles of their feet, you will find that some people were ready to move in immediately if the momentum was not good. However, what they expected did not happen.
This time there was no rattling or trembling and no smoke rising. As the machine pivoted, the watergate grille was slowly pulled up. Its smoothness made people suspect that the previous failure was fake. Seeing the watergate rising, outside
