Chapter 122 Carboniferous? Carboniferous!
Coal, that is, coal. Our Yanhuang people are the earliest countries to discover and use coal, hundreds of years earlier than those things in the West who always like to find fault!
There is a record in the literature that the Western Han Dynasty is the earliest period of mining and using coal, which is in 180 BC when Emperor Wen of Han ascended the throne, there is a record in the "Historical Records", saying that the younger brother of the Empress Dowager Dou Guangguo "went into the mountains to make charcoal", that is, he ran into the mountains to dig coal, and accidentally occurred "bank collapse", that is, the coal mine collapsed, "more than 100 people under the shore" "crushed and killed", it can be seen between the lines that in this period, the scale of coal mining has been not small.
However, because some coal contains a large amount of "poisonous smoke" to death or dizziness, it has not been promoted, until the end of the Northern Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty, the discovery of coke technology, coal began to be used as a fuel by all walks of life in large quantities.
The change of fuel promoted a major breakthrough in iron-smelting technology, armor weapons, not to mention, the emergence of iron pots alone, stir-fried food made the world suddenly brighten, and then the iron pot was like a monopoly of luxury, snatched by the barbarians in the north with big swords.
After several successful robberies, the barbarians in the north found that the two-legged sheep in the south were really weak and ruthless, and they did not deserve to have the beautiful world of flowers in the south.
As a result, the slogan "Where the horse's hooves step is the grassland", the slogan resounded throughout the grassland.
The Great Song Dynasty, a country that has been the leading country in terms of economy, culture and technology among several feudal dynasties, was driven to the cliff mountain, facing the sea in exchange for a leap, and the world changed its appearance.
"Great monk, is there a lot of poisonous smoke in this coal?"
The dog pulled a fist-sized piece of charcoal under his feet with a firewood knife, and looked up to ask the idiot who was also studying the charcoal.
The idiot clapped his hands and stood up and said, "The poor monk doesn't know, just take it outside and burn it together." ”
The dog nodded, got up and looked at the dozens of caves on both sides, large and small, with a torch, and said, "How much coal is there?" ”
The idiot clasped his hands together and said Amitabha, staring at the dog without even blinking his eyes.
The dog said, "Great monk, what do you think I'm doing?" ”
"Puppy, don't forget about helping me build a big temple!"
The dog pouted, "Great monk, this is not ready-made gold and silver, I can't use a bunch of black stones to cover you!" ”
The two of them were arguing here, and the big fool on the side boredly picked up two pieces of charcoal and spun them around in his hands.
"Besides, inside this mountain, you can't transport it out and sell it? Just rely on our backs, what years can we cover you? ”
The great monk sighed and said, "The poor monk is not in a hurry, just take your time!" ”
The dog snorted and ignored him, turned his head away, and jumped out of the way with an "oops".
"Liu Dasha, what kind of demon are you!"
Dasha was puzzled and said, "What's wrong with me?" ”
The dog on the side laughed hahahaha.
"Dasha, look at your face, it's ugly and ugly to die of black and numb smeared with charcoal!" Da Kang in front of him pointed to his face and laughed.
Dasha grabbed Hu Dakang's neck collar and said angrily: "Who secretly smeared the charcoal on my face?" ”
The dog kicked him and pointed at him and scolded, "Fool, look at your palm!" ”
Dasha hurriedly sprinkled Hu Dakang, looked down at the two palms and said suspiciously: "Who wiped my hand again?" ”
All:......
This fool has not been sick for a long time, and for a while he forgot that he had broken his skull.
Waving the torch in his hand, the dog said, "Let's go!" ”
The group continued to huddle around the idiot and walked along the tunnel.
Along the way, there are no less than hundreds of sets of wooden frames for support, not to mention the tunnels excavated on both sides.
After walking forward for a while, the cave fell sharply again, and the width of both sides doubled, and the traces of ruts on the ground became two, and the dog said: "I'm afraid this mine can accommodate thousands of people!" ”
The idiot said: "At least two or three thousand people, I look at the old and new traces around me and seem to have excavated three or four times." ”
The dog nodded and muttered, "I don't know where this mine is." ”
The eyes are full of wooden frames and spilled broken stones, and the one-person-high pit on both sides is also full of scattered black charcoal, and it is annoying to look at it like this, and several people want to go out, but Dasha is still shouting to find the treasure knife, and insists on walking a pillar of incense, and the dog said:
"Let's go back! There won't be enough torches to walk back to the city! ”
A few people nodded and were about to go back.
Dasha said: "What's the return?" I haven't found the sword yet! ”
The dog said angrily: "What kind of treasure knife are you looking for, this is a charcoal cave, and there is black charcoal everywhere!" Where are there tombs? ”
Dasha stretched out his hand and pointed to the small hole on the left side and said, "Isn't that it?" ”
Everyone was stunned and hurriedly looked over, and saw a mess of wooden planks piled up at the entrance of the small hole, and a few pieces of wool were faintly exposed on one of the boards.
Before the dog could react, the dog behind him shouted and ran over with a wooden stick.
Three times and five divided by two, the wooden board was smashed, and a small hole one person wide was exposed in front of everyone.
The dog hurriedly walked over to look at it, and saw that there was a faint light in the sloping hole.
Listen carefully to the roar of the wind.
The dog turned his head to look at the idiot.
The great monk stretched out his hand and picked up a lump of dirt, put it under his nose and sniffed: "It's soil!" ”
"Nonsense!" The dog said fiercely: "Let me ask you where this cave leads?" ”
The great monk shook his head and said, "The poor monk doesn't know either!" ”
"I know!" Behind the big fool said excitedly.
The dog asked, "Do you know where it is?" ”
Dasha nodded.
"And where are you talking about?"
Dasha said mysteriously: "It is the road to becoming a god in the sky!" ”
"Whew!" The dog spat on his face and said, "You're still going to hell!" ”
Looking at the size of the cave, it was just enough to take a person, and the dog said, "Great monk, you go first!" ”
The idiot pointed to the cave where the coal was digging and said, "Don't you go and see the end?" ”
The dog shook his head, "If you look at it again, you will dig charcoal, there is nothing to see!" ”
The idiot nodded, and climbed in with a large iron staff.
The dog said: "Great monk, such a long big iron rod, I'm afraid it will be too hard to hold it!" ”
The idiot tilted his head and said, "How to stop it if you encounter any poisonous insects?" ”
The dog handed him the wood knife in his hand and said, "Take this!" ”
"Amitabha, this is a murder weapon."
"What nonsense do you talk about bald donkeys, do you still want silver!"
"Okay, the poor monk will break the second vow!"
Seeing that he took the firewood knife and turned around and crawled inside, the dog pouted and said: "Taking a firewood knife is breaking the vows, why don't you mention it when you eat meat and drink wine!" ”
Seeing him crawl in, the dog looked back and said, "The dog is crawling!" ”
The dog left a cat body and also got in, and after Hu Dakang also went in, the dog said: "Dasha go over there and get some coal!" ”
Dasha pouted, "Why don't you let them go!" ”
The dog pointed to his palm and said, "Your hand is black, who don't you take?" ”
Dasha muttered a few words and ran to the side to pick up charcoal, seeing that he picked up more and more, the dog hurriedly said: "Liu Dasha, don't get your clothes dirty!" ”
Dasha said: "Then I can't take that much!" ”
"Hand it over and run again," the dog said, gesturing to the basket.
As long as he doesn't rob him of food, work or something, Dasha is still very obedient, seeing that he ran to the side to get charcoal again, the dog lowered his head and climbed in, and saw that Hu Dakang was turning a corner in front of him, so he turned back to Dasha and shouted: "Enough Dasha, come back!" ”
Dasha ran over with five or six pieces of coal.
The dog was dragging the back basket in front, and Dasha was pushing it back.
Before he had climbed two steps, Dasha coughed and said, "Brother Lang, I'm choking!" ”
The dog looked back and saw a lot of dirt falling from the back basket dragging the edge of the hole.
The cave was so big, he followed behind and he would fall into the soil as long as he dragged the back basket, and there was no way, so he asked him to go back again, handed the back basket to him, and let him drag it behind.
After such a delay, when the two of them climbed up the hole again, there was no one in front of them.
I only listened to the roaring wind mixed with the cheers of a few people.
The dog's face was happy, didn't he really find the baby?
The whole body immediately had strength, pouting his ass and crawling violently, and he saw a head poking out of the hole.
"Hu Xiaokang, aren't you on the top of the mountain? How did it end up here? ”
That Hu Xiaokang grinned and said, "I'm at the bottom of the mountain now!" ”
The dog was stunned for a moment, and pondered, this hole leads to the bottom of the mountain?
"Get out of the way, don't block the entrance to the cave, I want to get out!"
Hu Xiaokang let go, let go of his mouth, and the dog climbed out.
"Hey, what kind of place is this?"
Looking at the surroundings that seemed strange but somewhat familiar, the dog asked the dog who had already come out on the side.
"Brother Lang, this is behind the mass grave, two steps forward is the mass grave!"
Following his fingers, sure enough, a large and small grave pile was not far away, and the crow he met when he came was still standing on the half-exposed coffin and croaking.
Looking back, the hole that climbed out was stuck at the bottom of the mountain wall.
"Is this a thief hole?" The dog asked the idiot who was chanting the scriptures on the side.
"Yes, I think it was dug up by tomb robbers!"
"Huh, where's Dasha?" Gou Yu asked curiously.
"Oops, forgot, he's still in there"
The dog hurriedly ran to the entrance of the cave, and saw Dasha carrying a big black face and looking up with a white tooth probe.
"Brother Lang, is it the Heavenly Realm outside?"
The dog laughed, "No, it's hell!" ”
Behind the mass graveyard, the dog raised his head and said, "There has to be a time to apply!" ”
Gou Yu also looked at Tiandao: "I think so!" ”
The idiot asked suspiciously: "There is no sun in the sky, how do you know?" ”
The dog said, "We're going to be hungry!" ”
The dog on the side looked at a few babies on the top of the mountain, ran over with a rope and said to everyone: "They are here, ready to prepare, let's go back to eat!" ”
A few people got up, walked a few steps, and saw that Dasha was still squatting on the ground and refused to get up.
The dog asked, "Dasha, why don't you leave?" Not hungry? ”
Dasha said, "I haven't found the treasure knife yet!" ”
The dog on the side said angrily: "Dasha has a black stone in this hole, where is the treasure knife for you!" ”
The big fool puffed up and said, "It's not the end of the mile yet!" ”
The dog explained: "This is a mine cave, not a burial cave, and further on, it is still black stone. ”
Regardless of the persuasion of everyone, this big fool is to carry the basket on his back and keep silent.
Seeing that he was stupid, the dog had no choice but to coax him: "Dasha, let's go back first, I promise you, after selling the charcoal and making money in the future, I will definitely buy you a good treasure knife that sharpens iron like clay!" ”
Dasha got up with a bang and pedaled forward.
Seeing that he was still unhappy, the dog suddenly pulled out a rusty blade from the collapsed grave and said:
"Dasha, the treasure knife for you!"
