Volume 1 Encounters in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 27 Xue Guo Xi Zhong's Tricks
Bai Yao or Shu sighed deeply and said: "Hey, it turned out to be your grandfather's house, and the mysteries and secrets he engaged in along the way, aren't they very close to the country of the Yuan? ”
Feng Yuanchen said: "Hey, I'm always tired of being in the country, so let's play around by the way!" Feng Yuanchen approached Bai Yao or wrote a smile in front of him: "If it weren't for this, would you run into Xi Ruoshui?" After speaking, he touched Bai Yao or Shu again, and his eyebrows stretched out twice in the direction of Xi Ruoshui.
Bai Yao or Shu said honestly: "Brother Feng is reasonable, but..."
Feng Yuanchen interrupted Bai Yao or Shu and said, "No, let's go to Xue Kingdom!"
Xi Ruoshui seemed to be very interested in the carriages coming and going next to him: "These carriages are so interesting, I have never seen such carriages!"
Feng Yuanchen smiled mysteriously and said, "Wait a minute, let me show you that there is a gap between cars and cars!"
Since Bai Yao or Shu and his party approached Xue Guo, they felt that the style of the carriage here was different from other places, the speed was so fast and steady, it seemed to have the feeling of flying, and the carriage was dressed up in a simple and dignified manner, and the layers of silk were spread out, which was more upright and upright, which seemed to verify the prosperity of this place.
It turned out that this was the Xue Kingdom founded by the famous Xi Zhong, Xi Zhong not only had excellent martial arts, but also made people sigh. Although the Yellow Emperor invented the car, it is difficult for ordinary people to master the skills. Xi Zhong's transformation and invention of the car is very convenient, everyone can grasp it, was named the car by Dayu, and has the reputation of "car god".
The car invented by Xi Zhong was so convenient that mortals only thought that Xi Zhong was a very outstanding craftsman, so much so that they ignored his achievements in martial arts and mechanical arts. Master dueling martial arts skills are very important, but what makes people unguardable are all kinds of mechanisms, hidden weapons, poisons, etc.
Xi Zhong passed on to the generation of Zhong Yu (sound gray), and the Xue State reached its peak, and Zhong Yu made suggestions for Shang Tang to establish the Great Shang Empire, and was worshiped as the left minister, and the right minister Yi Yin was equally famous.
Xue Guo is very humble in governing the country, his children are all dragons and phoenixes, knowledgeable and reasonable, and all Fang Guo is proud to marry Xue Guo's children. Not only is Ren Yushu, the queen of the Dang Kingdom, from the Xue Kingdom, but even a considerable number of emperors and concubines of the Great Shang Empire are from the Xue Kingdom, and the glory of the Xue Kingdom is simply unique.
However, Xue Guo adheres to the ancestral teachings, has always been generous and peaceful, and has not expanded its territory, and the territory has basically not changed for five hundred years, and these measures are even more in line with the thoughts of the emperors of the Great Shang Empire, and Xue has been prosperous like a city for five hundred years.
Feng Yuanchen said: "Do you want to enjoy it in the Xuan car?"
Bai Yao or book: "Xuan Che, what Xuan Che!"
Feng Yuanchen didn't speak, he walked to the guards at the city gate with a smug expression, Feng Yuanchen didn't know what to take out from the bag, the guards became quite respectful, and then took them to an open space, and then led out a four-horse copper chariot. Copper as the skeleton, hardwood as a supplement, Du Heng as a decoration, hibiscus a little bit, the carriage is square, the wheels are surprisingly large, the four white horses are majestic, people can't help but sigh, whoever sees such a carriage wants to go up and sit down.
Bai Yao or Shu and Xi Ruoshui were stunned, and then sat down very happily, which was even more warmly dressed, the unknown floral fragrance was very elegant, and it was soft and comfortable to sit on. The three horses followed behind, leisurely galloping towards the capital of Xue Kingdom.
Xi Ruoshui said: "This Xuan car is so beautiful, the first time I took a Xuan car, it is still such a Xuan car!"
Bai Yao or Shu Yinghe said: "Yes, I didn't feel a little bump." ”
Feng Yuanchen smiled proudly: "This is a four-horse Bailing Tongxuan car specially designed to receive nobles outside the city gate, but ordinary people don't have this blessing." ”
Xi Ruoshui said: "If you have a chance, I want to conjure one up like this!"
Bai Yao or Shu wondered: "Change?"
Xi Ruoshui said slowly: "Yes, it's a pity that there is no water here!"
Feng Yuanchen said: "How to change, how to change, how to change with water?"
Xi Ruoshui said: "Yes, there is a chance to conjure one for you!"
Feng Yuanchen said incredulously: "If you have a chance, I really want to see how you do it! This Xuan car is very unusual, right, coachman, what do you call it?"
The driver said: "Back to the young master, the old man's name is Ying Shang, and he has been driving this car for more than 30 years!"
Feng Yuanchen said: "It's been so long! I heard that this car is very powerful, what is different about this car?"
Ying Shang said: "This car called Bailing Tongxuan is not only fast, but also very stable, and this car has extraordinary defensive capabilities, that is, a master's full force can not be broken with a single blow, you see that although these parts are wood, but ordinary bows, swords, and crossbows cannot penetrate." ”
Bai Yao or Shu said: "Is it so powerful? Who made it?"
The coachman said: "This car is made according to the pattern handed down by Patriarch Xi Zhong, who was the first craftsman in the whole of China at that time. If it weren't for Master Zu's mastery of mechanical arts, who would have been able to create such a car, after nearly a thousand years, the car has basically not changed, but a few parts have been replaced with more durable bronze. Therefore, in the Xue Kingdom, although the martial arts are important, this organ technique is even more famous. ”
Bai Yao or the three of them admired Master Xi Zhongzu's face!
Ying Shang said: "I don't dare to say anything else, but you are right to come to this Xue Kingdom, especially at this time, it is really full of flowers, all kinds of strange things can be found here, and strange people and foreign objects are dizzying!"
Bai Yao or Shu said: "I have seen a lot on the way here, in the country of Yuanyu, many things are made of wood, but when I got here, I found that bronze is used a lot!"
Ying Shang said: "Bronze is stronger and more durable than ordinary wood! However, I heard that there are materials that are stronger than bronze, but it is difficult to mold!"
Bai Yao or Shu said: "Yes, I don't know!"
Feng Yuanchen said: "I heard my father say, it seems to be Xuaniron, but Xuaniron is difficult to produce! It is very suitable for making weapons, and there are only a few in our country, and they can only be cast by famous foundries!"
Ying Shang said: "In our place, bronze can make any component you want, which is much more convenient than Xuantie, you see that next to the street, many of them are made of bronze!"
Xi Ruoshui said: "Yes, it looks slow and exquisite! Some can even see their own appearance!"
Feng Yuanchen said: "What you said is a bronze mirror, Ruoshui, you have never seen it!"
Xi Ruoshui said: "It's really the first time I've seen it, it's pretty good!"
Feng Yuanchen said: "At that time, let that kid from the book choose a few for you!"
Xi Ruoshui nodded!
Ying Shang said: "The bronze mirror is very popular here, and the bronze mechanism is the heavy weapon of the Xue Kingdom, you can feast your eyes these days!
Xi Ruoshui said with Bai Yao or Shu: "So fast!"
Feng Yuanchen smiled proudly: "Don't look at whose car this is."
Bai Yao or Shu smiled and said, "Master Xi Zhongzu's car, it's not yours anyway!"
Feng Yuanchen raised his head and said, "This is my grandfather's Fang country, my Fang country, and my car!"
The coachman said: "Young Lord Feng, the old man can only send you here"
Feng Yuanchen hurriedly took out a few strings of treasures and handed them to the coachman and said, "Thank you, old master!"
The coachman said, "Lord Feng Shao, don't be polite, you really don't dare to accept this treasure!" After speaking, he left very respectfully.
The closer you get to the national capital, there are more and more strange things, such as strange crosses, radial copper shovels, bronze wood components, one-legged tripods, etc., and there are many wine shops in the city, and people come and go prosperously.
This is the most prosperous Fang country that Xi Ruoshui and Bai Yao or Shu have ever seen, and they are attracted by the strange things here, and they keep looking for interesting objects on the roadside on both sides of the avenue, and the two of them are excited by all kinds of objects and dance hand in hand, Feng Yuanchen half-urged and half-guided for a long time.
At this time, there were more and more carriages and people, and they were rushing in one direction, Feng Yuanchen looked at Xi Ruoshu at this time and shook his head and sighed, at this time, Xi Ruoshui's head was full of all kinds of hairpins, his ears were also with thick earrings, and there were many jewelry hanging on his wrists and necks, but Bai Yao or Shu had been praising and sighing.
Feng Yuanchen looked very convinced of them, and he didn't know what to say.
Bai Yao or Shu felt more and more crowded and asked, "Why are there so many people?"
Feng Yuanchen said: "The day after tomorrow is the day to worship the emperor Xi Zhong!" Feng Yuanchen pointed to the solemn building in the distance and said: "That's it!"
Feng Yuanchen said proudly: "It's very majestic! It will be even more lively in two days!"
Xi Ruoshui asked with Bai Yao or Shu, "Why?"
Feng Yuanchen raised his head and puffed up at this time and said: "After worshipping the Emperor Ancestor Xi Zhong, it is the day of the selection of the organ technique, but I specially brought you here to open your eyes!"
Bai Yao or Shu said: "Mechanism technique, what kind of mechanism technique did you talk about just now?"
Feng Yuanchen said: "This, it's hard to say, you will know it when you see it!And only a few Fang countries around Xue Guo are keen on machine skills, and many people only know that the emperor Xi Zhong was named Che Zheng by Dayu, but how can outsiders know how Che Zheng can be so good?
Xi Ruoshui and Bai Yao or Shu nodded.
The three of them quickly walked to an imposing gate, and Feng Yuanchen greeted the guards before leading them in. Before entering the hall, through the figures coming and going, I saw three majestic men in the middle of the hall, the far right is Feng Yuanchen's mother Ren Yushu, and there is a row of graceful men and women standing in a row on the left. The row on the right is the main wind and ink line of the country, and then the wind is gentle, of course, the child beast is indispensable,
Feng Yuanchen introduced: "The first one on the left made my uncle Ren Cheng, but the Shang Empire was divided into Zhiguo, and he was only in charge when he came back to worship. The second is Ren Youfu, the second uncle, the current lord of the country. The third is Zuwen, followed by my mother."
Bai Yao or Shu was puzzled: "Zuwen?"
Feng Yuanchen said: "Yes, because the prince who was once assisted by the third uncle was filial piety, and the prince was respected as his ancestor after his death, and the third prince's uncle also gave the ancestral surname."
Bai Yao or Shu was even more puzzled: "Ancestor self, filial piety?"
