589 Liuzhen Garden

Xu Wen had seen the introduction of Fanjing Mountain in Guizhou in a geographical magazine before.

Fanjing Mountain is located in the Wuling Mountains, there is a golden top, it is the highest peak of the Wuling Mountains, and it is often seen that the red clouds are surrounded by ruiqi, so it is also called the red cloud golden peak.

The Jinding Mountain is more than 2,000 meters above sea level, and the distance from the foot of the peak to the peak is nearly 100 meters, standing straight and vertical, like a huge exclamation point between heaven and earth.

There is a crack at the top of the peak, called Jindao Gorge, which divides the mountain in two.

The most outrageous is this, there is a temple on each side of the Golden Dao Gorge, which is connected by a sky bridge in the middle.

The Red Cloud Golden Dome needs to be climbed by iron cables to go up, so how did the two temples be built?

When Xu Wen saw it, he thought it was incredible, and now what appeared in front of him was a miracle that was completely comparable to the Fanjing Mountain Temple.

And there was a river on the mountain, and when I went up the stone steps, it was in front of them. There is a bridge on the river, a stone arch bridge, with an elegant arc, like a bright moon across it.

It's amazing that such a bridge is built in such a place. But at this time, no one paid attention to the bridge, and all eyes were focused on the mountain wall behind.

On the front is a group of colossal statues, as if enlarged versions of the sculptures in the mountainside pavilion, also carved by Mozi and his students.

The statue was enlarged, but there was no lack of spirit at all, and when Mozi looked down through the mountain light, everyone seemed to feel that kind of compassionate and expansive faith.

At first glance, it was too shocking, so if you look closer, you will realize that it is not just a statue, but a combination of countless caves.

These caves are large and small, the big ones can live in people, and the small ones are only grottoes, and there are things in them.

This dense stone kiln and grotto are scattered, rising and falling according to the mountain, forming such a group of sculptures, which are seamlessly integrated and will not make people feel abrupt at all!

Ingenuity, real ingenuity......

"This is my wandering garden. Mingshan pointed forward with pride in his eyes.

This word garden is really misleading. Li Quanlao came back to his senses for a long time and sighed.

This is also the voice of everyone at this moment.

"There are mountains, rivers and houses, why is it not a garden. Mingshan smiled and drew a circle with his hand, and said with a smile.

"Where is that Monosheng Pavilion?" this is the most crucial thing, someone can't wait to ask.

Mingshan's hand pointed straight to the Mozi statue in front of him.

............

This Mozi statue looks like the most delicate one from a distance, and you can see it when you get closer, because there are more grottoes than stone kilns, which is like a computer drawing, and the more dots there are, the more detailed it is.

After getting closer, Xu Wen couldn't help but admire the statue's eyes again, and then he looked at the things in the grotto.

He went to Los Angeles to see the Longmen Grottoes, which are also large and small stone caves, and each stone cave has a group or a stone Buddha statue.

It's also relatively similar here, the grotto is full of things, and there are many stone statues, but not Buddha statues, there are all kinds of them.

In addition, there are many wooden boxes and oil-paper bags, some of which are laid flat and some are hanging, which look very peculiar.

"The things were brought in at the beginning, but we had to find a way to preserve them for a long time from the wind, frost, rain and snow. My Ming family has a set of Tibetan art methods, which records the collection methods of different situations and different materials, and thus creates such a place. Each of the grotto niches here is designed, some are protected from light, some are ventilated, some are moisture-proof, and they are very finely designed to deal with different objects. Mingshan introduced.

Naturalist collection is also a discipline, and time is the biggest enemy of artworks, in this process, light, insect infestation, flooding, fire, weathering, all external factors will have an irreversible impact on the objects.

It was in this context that the restoration of cultural relics was born.

However, good collection conditions can greatly delay these effects, and the ancients also had some awareness in this regard.

For example, camphor wood boxes are insect-proof, and oil-paper is moisture-proof, which are very common means of protection.

However, such a collection protection method is effective in a short period of time, and long-term preservation, especially in a hundred years, is still very insufficient.

Since the Ming family is based on collection, they must have put a lot of effort into this. However, with the stone kiln as the residence and the grotto as the treasure pavilion, it is really a huge stroke.

Xu Wen looked around, his gaze suddenly frozen.

There are some parts made of iron and wood next to the grotto, some are tripods, which are convenient for people to go up and down, and the other part makes Xu Wen directly think of Tianyun Mountain.

He was about to ask, when he saw Mingshan walk up and shake a roulette wheel next to him.

The roulette wheel made a rhythmic sound, and the iron ropes above pulled each other and moved together.

A wooden box was lifted out of the top and slowly moved down a track!

At this moment, the Liuyu Garden seemed to come to life, and countless parts cooperated with each other, completing this work in a complex but simple way.

Xu Wen actually knew the general principle of it, but he still couldn't see it, and his heart was full of shock.

This is not uncommon in modern times, and it can be made even more beautiful with various energy sources and machinery.

But this is another world, a world where machinery and technology have not been developed at all, and it is incredible to see such a scene at this time!

His mind moved slightly, and he glanced to the side.

Sure enough, Ni Tianyang's eyes widened, and he held his heart like a girl, completely fascinated by this magical scene.

At the same time, Xu Wen's gaze swept over Ni Tianyang, and he noticed another person next to him.

Lian Tianqing.

Xu Wen has always felt that his master is a standard traditional craftsman master, with exquisite skills, broad and unique ideas, and has been perfected. But on the other hand, he is not interested in the assembly line production called the total division method, such as mechanical principles, etc., and has little contact with it.

has such an idea, so Xu Wen rarely mentions this aspect to Lian Tianqing, and usually only discusses it with Ni Tianyang.

And now, even Tianqing is also staring at those machines that are constantly running, his eyes are extremely focused and excited!

Was it because of this miraculous sight that you suddenly became interested?

Xu Wen doesn't think so.

He suddenly realized that he had overlooked one thing.

Before the election of the chief officer, he wanted to use some machinery to assist in the work, but his strength was not enough, he had not learned metal craftsmanship, and the parts of copper and iron could not be made with sufficient precision.

At that time, it was Lian Tianqing who silently gave him a box of spare parts to solve his urgent need.

The production of the box is a typical Lian Tianqing technique, Xu Wen will not admit mistakes, he is an all-rounder in various categories of craftsmanship, and he does have such a ability.

Xu Wen was only happy at that time, and neglected one thing.

Speaking of craftsmanship alone, Lian Tianqing must have such a level.

But the parts are no better than ordinary crafts, without enough understanding, and it is not easy to do such a tight fit.

At that time, Xu Wen took it for granted that Lian Tianqing had seen their design drawings through some means, but now that he thought about it, he and his wife and children restored some of the ancient machinery in Tianyun Mountain back then, how could he not be interested in these things and not know anything?

It's just that I gave up for some reason.

Liantian was able to absorb hundreds of schools when he was young, and according to current rumors, some behaviors still used some means.

It can be seen that he is not an inflexible person, on the contrary, he is very flexible.

So why did he have to let himself learn to repair in the first place?

Could there be any other reason for this?

At this time, two sentences of dialogue suddenly came from the side, which made Xu Wen's mind quickly retract.

"This mechanism is too ingenious, isn't it?" Xiang Fuzhi said in amazement.

"Truly subtle. But ......," Liu said.

"We've seen this before, not so long ago. Li Quan followed and said.

Then, the two men looked at each other and smiled as if they were in agreement, knowing that they were all referring to the same thing.

"The scale is not as grand as this, but the degree of subtlety is by no means inferior!" Liu Wange raised his head and said with emotion.
