Xue Qing looked at the cliff and asked, "What is up here, what is around the valley, the key is whether there is a road, is there anyone?" ”

Zhang Quandan said: "I have sent people to have a preliminary understanding, they are all deep mountains and old forests, inaccessible, there are no roads everywhere, and they are all towering ancient trees." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Except for coming along the Nguyen River channel, there are some mountains and dense forests in other directions, even behind the official residence, and there is no one within a radius of dozens of miles. ”

Xue Qing said: "You still have to be careful, sprinkle some manpower around, and be wary of someone finding out, this manpower must be absolutely reliable, after all, they are outside." ”

Tianbao arched his hand and said: "We have already set up a sentry, but we are short of manpower, and this place is a little too big, and it may not be able to completely cover it for a while." I had to patrol and see as many places as I could. ”

The current situation can only be like this.

I suddenly remembered that this place is so close to Dongting Lake, and it is surrounded by the Ruan River, if there is a big flood one day, it will be a stop if it is all flooded, but it should not be a big problem to think about it, otherwise how did those remnants of Chu survive for so many years.

asked Zhang Quandan, Zhang Quandan said: "I learned from the old man that the flood season here is mostly in June and July, and there is no peach blossom flood in March, at most there is more rain. But in June and July, when the flood peak of the Nguyen River crosses, it will flood the entrance and exit of the cave, as well as a large area of land around it, but fortunately it is relatively low-lying there, and it is blocked by two hills, Lao Su said that for more than 100 years, the water has never overflowed the hills. The water of the stream is only three feet high, and our storehouses and houses are built far away from the possible floods, and we choose as high as possible. After all, our place is in the upper reaches of Dongting Lake, and if it is downstream, it will be much more difficult to flood control every year. ”

Nonsense, the Dongting Lake break, it is also downstream, how much can you come back?

Xue Qing suddenly remembered something, yesterday Tianbao said that Yuan Zhouzi made a sheepskin bag to fly away. What's going on? Could it be that this goods also crossed over? So he asked Tianbao to fetch the things.

Tianbao ran over with something, and as soon as he opened it, Xue Qing was blindfolded, at least more than 20 sheepskins were sewn together tightly, just with this skill, it was no problem to support his family, Xue Qing played with it, it was really like a deflated balloon. Below the opening hung a pot, and a pole, and a few ropes.

The brain made up the picture, is this thing really a hot air balloon? With this technical condition, can he Yuan Zhouzi really drum up a hot air balloon? Impossible.

Let Zhang Quandan pull Yuan Zhouzi over. The old man ran over panting, and when he saw Xue Qing thoughtfully fiddling with the sheepskin, his heart suddenly sank. Standing aside and whispering, "Your Highness calls, I don't know what's going on." ”

Xue Qing rolled her eyes: "The Heavenly King covers the tiger." ”

Yuan Zhouzi was stunned: "What? This is a sheepskin, not a tiger skin. ”

It doesn't look like it's crossing compatriots. Xue Qing asked, "Did you figure this thing up by yourself, or did someone teach you, or did you learn it from a book?" ”

Yuan Zhouzi opened his mouth and began to talk nonsense: "This thing is the old man's original creation, specially given to His Royal Highness for fun, Your Highness, as long as this thing can be used, it can soar in the daytime......"

Sheng, sister, why are people's minds full of this thing these days, and it's not the world of Xianxia. Xue Qing asked, "How did you figure it out?" ”

Yuan Zhouzi said triumphantly: "Your Highness, when the old man saw the gunpowder explode, there was always a burst of black smoke, drifting away with the wind, and whatever he wanted, why did he throw a bowl in the air, and it fell to the ground in an instant, probably because the dishes were heavy and the black smoke was light." If there is a way to reduce the weight of people, it is not like running away as soon as the wind blows. If the weight of a person cannot be reduced, then sew such a bag, which is full of black smoke, tied to a person, is equal to such a big thing, but only the weight of a person, then it is not equal to light, Your Highness, how about this magic weapon, you only need to test more, and after perfecting, it will be dedicated to Your Highness, and then Your Highness can soar in the day and become immortal. ”

Xue Qing looked at this Yuan Zhouzi with a strange expression, where did this old thing come from.

Xue Qing turned to ask, "What are you going to use as fuel in this pot?" ”

Yuan Zhouzi said: "Sheep fat and rag heads." ”

Xue Qing was a little entangled, should this thing continue to be studied, first of all, is it valuable? There must be one, and if there really is a safe and reliable batch of hot air balloons for reconnaissance, bombing, or escape, it would be fine. For example, last time, didn't Emperor Wu lock up the old lady in the Weiyang Palace Zongzheng Mansion, that's good, come to dozens of hot air balloons to scare you to death, and then pick up the old lady and run, to ensure that he was so scared that his pants fell off, thinking that the heavenly soldiers were descending to earth and did not dare to move.

However, can this thing be safe, from the material, to the fuel, it is simply impossible, without the chemical industry, there is no suitable material. At the very least, the fuel has to be liquefied gas. Then, it is easy to ascend to heaven, but it is difficult to land, and you can't fall anywhere. The direction could not be controlled, there was no propeller to push, and the wind could only run around, and the height could not be controlled. It's not feasible at all.

Reversibly, let Yuan Zhouzi use resources to study this thing, aren't you afraid that he will take the opportunity to run away? If you tell him that this hot air balloon can fly into the sky, smash the earth on the heads of people on the ground, and spread flowers and corpses all over the ground, this pacifist white lotus can die on the spot for you.

I don't like this old man more and more, so forget about the hot air balloon and seal it. In the future, it is necessary to strengthen the guard of Yuan Zhouzi, send people to watch it 24 hours a day, and cannot take out of sight when eating, sleeping, and going to the toilet. At the same time, the things he participated in the manufacture and improvement should be monitored throughout the whole process, and spot checked at any time to prevent him from committing ghosts. In short, every move must be under control.

Xue Qing was a little unhappy, why did others cross with the halo of the protagonist, and they all worked hard and were loyal to death. Why did you come to the old lady, you have to be like a black coal kiln proprietor, and you have to tie up someone who is reluctant to help.

What if this is a foreign worker, and what if this does not contribute to the enthusiasm for invention and creation. Alas. It's really tangled.

Even the education of these children, Xue Qing was quite entangled, and without thinking about it, she let them study and practice martial arts, learn to strike iron, make gunpowder, and so on. I didn't think about the why, and the feasibility, and I started without an educational syllabus.

Zhang Quandan has some micro-words, in his opinion, what is the purpose of teaching them to read and write? It's not tired enough, just choose some smart words to learn from it. (To be continued.) )
