【Chapter 154】Position

Yu Moji was stunned again.

Ling Ai had also mentioned it before, saying that she might be able to directly grab the promotion. It's just that when he joined the Cardinal at the beginning of the year, almost all the reservists were worried that they wouldn't be able to survive the legendary extremely difficult graduation ceremony, and Yu Moji never thought that the matter of being promoted to Yanshi could be so simple.

This should have been something to be happy about. But thinking of the reason for her ascension, the little joy that had just emerged in Yu Mojian's heart was extinguished—Aman's bones were not yet cold. Technology may be able to last for centuries, but in this world, will there be anyone like Aman in the future, who can delve into such excellent technology without the support of the whole country of the Great Qi Empire? A person's death, no matter how much value it can bring, is less important than living.

However, since Yu Moji wants to become the Yanshi of the Cardinal, and since she wants to continue to live and study the science of Yanjia, then whether she is grateful, guilty, or unbearable, this kind of emotion can only be suppressed in the bottom of her heart, and she cannot reveal it at all. Aman's ghost would forever be a part of the Yanjia Studies, spurring her to continue running for equality and freedom in Yu Mochen's heart, but she could only give a polite smile at this moment to thank Ling Jingcheng for his promotion.

With Ling Jingcheng's permission, the matter of sorting out the manuscript was handled quite quickly.

The room they were allocated was the same room that Yu Moji had used to transcribe last time. Yan Zheng led Yu Moji into the house, and told her that Yi Heng had been brought by someone else. The boy was so quiet that he could barely estimate his position, said hello, and told them what they were going to do. After saying this, Heng'er didn't seem to react, and Yan Zheng said on the side, "He nodded." Looks like I understand what you mean. ”

Yu Mochen smiled, "He's very smart, but he can't speak." As he spoke, he asked Yan Zheng for help and turned the manuscript he had previously transcribed to the page where she began to use the mark.

Immediately, there was a small sound of paper grinding against each other. Yu Moji waited quietly, and listened to Yan Zheng say, "Your traces are really messy enough, thick ink and color, heh, I'm afraid that this finishing stroke will be spilled three pieces of paper." ”

Yu Moji: "......"

When she transcribed the first few pages, she was still trying to prevent this from happening, but she didn't think about the last hurry, but she still didn't avoid it.

She smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I was like this when I was a child, and the master of the seminary gave me this name. "She's telling the truth. When she was a child, she couldn't afford to use the fine paper used by others, so she could only make do with straw paper, let alone three pages in one stroke, and she couldn't wait to print the ink on the table all the way.

Yan Zheng was stunned for a moment, and wondered, "Why is the name given by the master?" ”

"I'm not a Qi person, if I don't want to read and write, I don't need to use the name of a Qi person." Yu Moji casually explained two sentences, and then didn't say more, only urging Yan Zheng to start quickly.

"After this place, what is talked about is the connection between the dragon's heart and the oar." What Yu Moji wrote down by himself has not forgotten much; The characters she had written down before came alive in her mind one by one, "The ships designed by the Cardinal were born from the previous manpower ships, so they were mostly propelled by two ritual ships. In ordinary rivers and canals, there is no problem with using this structure......"

"However, the Jiayuan River is wide, the wind and waves are extremely large, and the Liangyi ship is exposed at the stern, which is very vulnerable; This is especially true if it goes to sea in the future......"

"In addition, if the wheel board is in, it will hit the water, and if it goes out, it will carry the river water, consuming ten thousand years of gold, and it can only be converted into three percent of the force, and the efficiency is really not high......

When she discusses the study of Yanjia, the logic is extremely clear, even if it is dictated, it is as smooth as the next pen, there are no stumbling points, and compared with usual, she seems to be extra confident and calm. Yan Zheng was stunned for a moment on the side, and only interjected for a while, "What you draw on your manuscript is the direction of energy loss when the two ritual wheels collide with the river?" ”

"That's just a draft...... Yu Mochen nodded embarrassedly, she drew a few strokes as a hint in order to make it easier for her to transcribe later, but she didn't expect Yan Zheng to see it, "It's just that the sketch should have been drawn on page forty-five, and I have already said that it is on page forty-eight." ”

“…… Seeing that you are talking with great interest, I am too embarrassed to interrupt. Yan Zheng waved his hand and said, "However, let's stop for a while." ”

Yu Mojin pulled his hair and said, "Am I talking too fast?" ”

"Nope." Yan Zheng quickly denied her speculation and explained, "Yi Heng really has some skills. You're not slow, but he's perfectly up to par. Let's talk about these two sentences, and he's already starting to sketch your sketch again—much finer than your original. ”

Yu Moji immediately remembered that when he first saw Heng'er in the prisoner camp, he took Aman's broken hairpin and painted a seven-pin golden cauldron on the stone wall, although the brushstrokes were clumsy and weak, but the key points were depicted quite clearly, and he obviously knew the structural relationship very well, so that Yu Moji recognized it at a glance.

She didn't want to tell Yan Zheng about this, so she only smiled, "The foundation that this kid laid in the past is really good." ”

"That's an interesting comment." Yan Zheng said, "Lord Ling only said that he has good talents. ”

Yu Mochen smiled and shook his head, "The term 'talent' is too mysterious for me. I don't have something myself, how can I evaluate whether others have it? "The deeper you go, the more complicated it becomes. In Yu Mojian's view, if you want to be accomplished in this science, you must not only have the guidance of people who are well versed in this way, but also your own continuous efforts, both of which are indispensable. In contrast, for most people, talent is not particularly important.

Talent may be the icing on the cake, so that a proud son of heaven like Yan Zheng can advance at a much faster speed than others, and let a "genius" like Yi Langao, who was taught by Aman, design an exquisite seven-pin golden cauldron; However, if he only relied on his talent, even if Yu Moji played miscellaneous in the martial arts hall for another ten years, I am afraid that he would not be able to learn half of what he is now.

When she thought of this, she felt very sorry for Yi Heng. This child had been guided by the best master on the ship, but now she had to start from scratch, and even have to take a long detour, to follow her to the south to go through some storms before she could receive the grace from the Cardinal and regain the opportunity to learn the art of Yanjia. Yu Mojian sighed silently in his heart, and said in the direction of Yi Heng, "Did Lord Ling tell you about your plans for the future?" ”

He was nodding. Yan Zheng explained on the side.

"What do you think of yourself?" Yu Mojian's voice was slightly lowered, "If you don't have any special interest in actual combat, when you get to the south, we will give you a way to find more opportunities that will allow you to learn more about the Yanjia Sect." She thought for a moment and added, "It's just that even General Yuan may not be able to teach you like Aman...... But it should always be feasible to bring you a few books that are a little deeper. ”

Yan Zheng suddenly said, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Huh?" Yu Moji was stunned.

"I didn't talk to you, I asked Yi Heng." Yan Zheng said quickly, "Okay, you can write it in my hand...... That's what it meant. He turned his face to Yu Moji and said, "He's willing to go south." ”

Yu Moji was stunned again. She thought that Heng'er would definitely not want to.

"I don't understand the more specific meaning. When your eyes are healed, find a way to communicate with him yourself. Yan Zheng gave up interpreting Yi Heng's sign language, which was probably self-created, "And, ink marks, I think you have thought too much about this matter." ”

Yu Moji was a little embarrassed. She also said in her heart, because she failed to protect Aman, she was both sympathetic and guilty for Heng'er. Although she didn't protest against Ling Jingcheng's decision, she always had a thought in her heart, always trying to create a more suitable environment for Heng'er.

She didn't ask Heng'er what she thought; Fang Cai's question was actually just her own words.

"I'm sorry," Yu Mozhen smiled bitterly, "I've been a little self-righteous lately. ”

"Lord Ling sent Yi Heng to the south, not to send him to death." Yan Zheng probably felt that these words should have been known to Yi Heng, so he said them directly as usual, without any intention of avoiding them at all, "The study of Yanjia is ultimately to be used." In a place like Jiangshan ship, the purpose of the Yanji is probably just to drive the ship, and the nine surnames of Jiangshan can't hold the Yanjia weapon to fight against the Jiangbei Army. It is different for the Great Qi Empire, the study of Yanjia is a symbol of the strength of the empire, and it is an important weapon used to expand the territory. If Yi Heng wants to enter the Council, he should have a more accurate understanding of the meaning of the study of Yanjia. ”

"It's not just about expanding the territory...... Yu Moji's thoughts drifted to the few machines used for farming on the terraced fields of mourning, "but also for the benefit of people's livelihood." "For the Great Qi Empire, which is now somewhat stretched, it may be a somewhat nihilistic dream to use the millennium more widely for people's livelihood; But as long as there are still opportunities available to the people, this dream is not too far away.

"So you actually get it." Yan Zheng said, "I originally thought that you just thought that this was an esoteric and useless knowledge, and it was just a matter of interest to devote yourself to it. ”

Yu Moji did think so before. It's not that she doesn't care about the usefulness of Yanjia's learning, but she is not a serious person of the Great Qi Empire after all, and she is not like Yan Zheng who grew up in a Wenchen family. As a result, she was rarely able to put herself in a position consistent with that of the Great Qi Empire, and truly think about the significance of the study of Yanjia for a country.

The study of Yanjia, which was independent of the Great Qi Empire, was naturally useless in Yan Zheng's eyes.

It's just that if this is said truthfully, it will be a bit rebellious.

Yu Moji finally just smiled and said, "You convinced me." I think Yi Heng must have understood what you meant. ”
