Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
"Wuhou Divine Skill? Childe, you ...... What is this saying? β
Among these people who seem to have "realized", there is Wu Yanran, who is dressed in men's clothes at this time.
Moreover, after she thought of this, she couldn't help but exhale softly, so the two little palace maids Qin'er and Qi'er couldn't help but be curious, and finally asked Wu Yanran.
"That's it...... It's that 'lantern', if I'm not mistaken, this is probably the legendary 'Kong Ming lantern'! β
"What? It's true? β
Hearing Wu Yanran's words, Ruo'er and Lan'er, the two little palace maids, were really shocked. Moreover, this shocked Cheng dΓΉ is not small.
Kong Ming lantern is indeed a legendary thing in this era.
Legend has it that during the Three Kingdoms period, Wuhou Zhuge Kongming was besieged in Pingyang by Sima Yi and was unable to send troops out of the city for help. So, Zhuge Kongming calculated the direction of the wind, made a floating paper lantern, tied a message for help, and escaped from danger as a result, so later generations called this kind of lantern Kong Ming lantern.
Kong Ming lanterns and wooden ox flowing horses, Zhuge Lianyu and other ingenious Ming, are one of the most outstanding representatives of ancient China in the field of science and technology, and because they are all by Zhuge Kongming, so they are called "Wuhou Divine Skills" by later generations. And these "Wuhou Divine Skills", in addition to Kong Ming lanterns, others such as Wooden Ox Liuma and Zhuge Lianju have basically been lost in later societies.
As for the reason, no one can say well. Although in modern times, there are many people who want to restore this wooden ox and flowing horse and Zhuge Lianyu, but in fact. The finished product is still a deviation from the real "Wuhou Divine Skill".
Whether the appearance is the same or not, it's really hard to say. However, the lack of functionality is obvious.
First of all, the legendary "wooden ox flowing horse" can carry more than 400 pounds, and secondly, it can also go over mountains and mountains, and its daily journey is less than 30 miles! In modern society, there are very few restored "wooden cattle and horses" that can do these three things. And. Even if they meet these three conditions, because their manufacturing methods and practices are absolutely not like the original design, it cannot be said that these are "wooden cattle and flowing horses".
The situation of Zhuge Shenyu is similar, although in later generations there are even firearms that are a hundred times more powerful than this Zhuge Shenyu, that is, guns and ammunition, etc., but this still does not prevent this Zhuge Shenyu from becoming the object of competition for future generations. The main reason for this is that it is so early in the world. And if its power is strictly calculated, it is indeed not small, so it has created its prestige in the long river of history.
And what I said above is basically something that was born in the time and space where Qin Yong used to be.
And in this time and space, the so-called "Wuhou Divine Skill". It's not just that the "Wooden Ox Flowing Horse" and "Zhuge Shenyu" have been lost, and even the "Kong Ming Lantern" has completely lost its method and principle of making it, so people like Wu Yanran are knowledgeable. When they realized that this "lantern" might be the legendary "Kong Ming Lantern", they were so excited.
"Should...... It's true! Otherwise. It's just a lantern, how can it fly to the sky? Wuhou Divine Skill! It's really a martial arts skill, he can actually restore such a martial arts skill, it's really ...... It's incredible! β
Wu Yanran didn't care about Ruo'er and Lan'er at all at this time, she was muttering to herself while smiling bitterly.
She originally thought that she should have looked down on Qin Yong, a student from Yangzhou. But unexpectedly, it turned out that she finally underestimated him. Because, she originally thought that Qin Yong would be able to write poems, give words, and even make up songs and sing things, which would already be very remarkable! With these points, even if he didn't even understand a little bit of Gewuxue, he would basically be able to shock the world, but what he didn't expect was that Qin Yong gave her a big "surprise".
This "surprise" is, on the one hand, it shows that her vision is indeed quite unique, just with a few small poems, she decided that Qin Yong's talent is much higher than her, so she will say things like "I am not as good as him" at that time.
However, under this "surprise", there are also some happy "troubles". Because now the level of "Gewuxue" that Qin Yong has shown is too high, but it is just a mere competition, but in the end, he has recovered a "Wuhou Divine Skill" that is enough to shock the world, and with time, wouldn't he be even more amazing?
And Wu Yanran is very clear about Wu Zixiang's sister's temper, it can be said that her obsession with Gewuxue has reached a crazy level, so Wu Yanran can imagine that Wu Zixiang will definitely find Qin Yong at that time, in this way, it will have a lot of competition with her goal, and her desire to see Qin Yong in private is only afraid that it will continue to be postponed.
"Well, if I had known that this was the case, I should have visited the house in advance......"
Wu Yanran regretted in her heart. In fact, she had already gotten the relevant news about Qin Yong a few days ago, so if she really wanted to investigate, as a second princess, if she wanted to find out where Qin Yong and them fell, she could still find out.
But she didn't feel in a hurry at the time, so she didn't prepare much at all. Now it's better, but it's become a competition between the two sisters. Of course, Wu Yanran actually didn't want to see any competition with Wu Zixiang, and Wu Zixiang didn't want to offend Wu Yanran. The real preferences in their hearts have nothing to do with the imperial power.
Needless to say, Wu Zixiang's appearance was originally different from ordinary people, so it was impossible to inherit the unification. As for Wu Yanran, she threw herself into the world of literature, so she had no desire at all.
And all along, the relationship between the two parties is not too bad, of course, it will not be too close, after all, their mothers and concubines are different, so they can't be as close as real sisters of the same father and mother.
What Wu Yanran is worried about now is that if her sister Wu Zixiang also takes a fancy to this guy's talent in physicology, then I have to say that the possibility of "conflict" between the two sisters in the future is very large! After all, this guy also has limited energy, and under the lack of skills, there is always a chance that he will be left out in the cold. And whether it is Wu Yanran or Wu Zixiang, I am afraid that they will not be too willing to snub this aspect, because this poetry and poetry and Gewuxue are the things they attach the most importance to.
