Chapter 47: Clever Setup
readx;? Tianshu smiled proudly when he heard this, and said confidently: "According to the length of the horse's body, it is more than enough to accommodate our entire Sanzang army, but the senior brother said that he stayed in it and was bored, and said that he had been refining in the Bagua Dan furnace of Taishang Laojun for seven hundred and forty-nine days, and this bit of heat could not help him at all, so I asked him to fly outside and show us the way to the west."

Sanzang nodded, looking at the deep hollows on each side of the grass horse's chest, curious in his heart, and asked, "Tianshu, what are these two hollows for, are they used for ventilation?"
Tianshu squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "No, Master, this ship is made of blades of grass, not sealed, and the ventilation inside is very good, and there is no need to dig holes to breathe." These two grooves were borrowed by me from the second senior brother's two swords, which I used to cut through the grass that blocked the passage of the ship along the way. ”
Bajie suddenly realized, jumped up suddenly, and shouted: "Good girl, I said that these two swords disappeared after mowing the grass, it turned out that they were borrowed by you to cut the grass, not that I boasted, my two swords sharpened iron like clay, sharp and abnormal, used to cut the grass that blocked the way, that is not overkill? But I still have a problem, although you cut off the grass on both sides with the sword, but the grass in front of you blocking the road has not been cleared, and you can't move forward smoothly. ”
Tianshu smiled slightly, full of pride: "Second Senior Brother can be regarded as asking the point, I set these two swords under the chest of the grass horse, naturally to cut the grass that is blocking the way in front of me. I placed the hilts under the compass so that they could automatically adjust their direction as the compass turned, so that the path of the swords I placed was not a horizontal line, but a semicircle, so that they could automatically chop down the grass in front of them before the ship moved, so that the ship could move smoothly and smoothly. ”
Wukong was very satisfied when he heard this, and snapped his fingers leisurely: "The ingenuity of Tianshu's design is really breathtaking, but since you are in the grass horse and can't see things, how can you let my grandson show you the way?"
Tianshu narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and said with a straight smile: "Senior brother, don't you see that the position on the grass horse's chest is empty? That is the gap I deliberately left for the convenience of traveling, yes, I am in the grass horse, even through this gap, I can't accurately judge the current direction, but you are outside the grass horse, naturally know the direction we are heading, then you just need to fly in the air, at the gap to give me a small flag, point out the direction." ”
Sanzang was full of joy when he heard this, and praised him: "Wonderful Tianshu, where did you design a ship, you obviously built a car, tsk, this idea is really too advanced." ”
Tianshu smiled embarrassedly when he heard this, and said ashamedly: "Master has praised me falsely, although I have solved many problems, but the power problem of this ship has put me in a predicament. Because we are in the wilderness, and in order to catch up with the schedule, so the materials for building the ship are only grass blades and wood, and the structure of the mechanical spring connecting the inner has very strict requirements for the toughness and precision of the material. ”
As soon as the words came out, Wujing couldn't help but widen his eyes, and shouted without a word: "Tianshu is fallacious, such a major problem has been overcome by you, but the material for building the machine spring has stumped you, and it really makes me laugh at Lao Sha." Since the toughness and precision of grass blades and grass stems are insufficient, let's strike iron, and the accuracy of the wire drawn out is always enough, right?"
Wukong sneered when he heard this, and said disdainfully: "This idiot is stupid and careless, but he came to laugh at Tianshu, it is really a big joke for the class to get an axe and slip the world." Who doesn't know that the precision and toughness of this wire can meet the requirements of the spring, but if you look at where we are at the moment, in this vast prairie, where do you ask us to go to find iron wire iron ore, even if we find iron ore, furnace iron, it will not take a lot of time, but we can't pass this prairie?"
Wujing was speechless when he heard this, and said with a sad face: "If we can't build a machine spring to transmit power, how can we make the wheel under the grass horse turn and take the master to the west?" As soon as the words came out, everyone was dumbfounded and fell into silence.
Tianshu applauded, confidently said: "It's okay, although I can't make a precise instrument, but I made a simple set of force transmission machinery out of wood, but the friction resistance between each other is very great, in order to make the wheels under the grass horse turn, I also made three pairs of simple pedals, which can let you step on the pedal and drive the grass horse forward." ”
Tang Sanzang clapped his hands and said with admiration: "As long as you can make the grass boat move, even if it is a little slower, it is better than rowing and pulling the grass leaves that stop people under the big sun." Tianshu, don't be discouraged, in fact, this is not bad, your theory that the wheel can rotate infinitely by using the connection of the spring does not work, after all, energy is conserved, you don't work the machine, you want it to keep running with the wheel, it is simply like a fantasy, it will not work. ”
As soon as he heard this, Bajie was very disdainful, and hummed and chirped: "Master will say that it is nice to comfort people, there are only three pairs of pedals, and I think Tianshu has not taken you into account, you can watch us endure hardships and say cool things, without any effort." ”
Sanzang didn't get angry when he heard this, he only stared at him coldly and said: "The stinky pig's head always said such a bad thing to frustrate everyone's spirit, Tianshu easily designed this boat for everyone to hurry, can't you say something nice to comfort and encourage her? ”
As soon as the words came out, Bajie rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "Master is bragging again, every time it's not just three minutes of heat, and it won't take long for him to cry and shout and be tired, as if he has been wronged." Besides, if it is a bicycle, why has it become a bicycle, if this car can run on its own, will it take us much effort?"
Sanzang's old face was slightly red when he heard this, and he said hatefully: "This pig's head is looking at people in the crack of the door, and he looks at people flatly, I don't dare to say anything else, I am an expert in riding a bicycle." In fact, a bicycle is called a bicycle, as the name suggests, it is a car that can act by stepping on the pedal, not a car that can run by itself, isn't it a monster, but it is indeed more appropriate to call it a bicycle, but you don't want to be more serious, we all call it that, the convention is customary, and it must not be changed. ”
Seeing that the two of them were talking non-stop below, Wujing and Ao Bai, who had already reached the hatch, poked their heads out and said to the two: "Master, you two are still finished, the sun is so fierce, you are not too hot to panic? ”
The two of them came to their senses when they heard this, and hurriedly grabbed the ladder and climbed up, because the ladder was woven with blades of grass, hanging in the air under the horse's belly, and swaying softly, which made people very uncomfortable to step on. And the holy monk Tang Sanzang seems to be a little afraid of heights, his feet are stepping on the soft grass ladder, there is no landing under his feet, his body is constantly climbing, like a swing and constantly shaking, shaking the holy monk's mind fluttering, very worried, and when he walks to seven or eight steps, he reaches the limit, closes his eyes tightly, and does not dare to move forward again. Bajie was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, very disdainful, and almost climbed into the hatch against the master.
A few people entered the hatch, and couldn't help but light up in front of them, this seven or eight meters long grass horse, looking very big, inside is also very spacious, there are seven positions in the middle, placed at intervals with each other, so that the passengers inside can enjoy themselves, so that there will be no mutual constraints. At the front is the helmsman's position, which Tianshu has prepared for himself, it is located on the chest of the grass horse, and the piece in front of it is hollowed out, and the helmsman inside can observe the direction of the ship at this moment through this gap. There is also a simple compass made of wood in the helmsman's position, through which the helmsman can control the direction of the entire ship, but because the front of the position is hollowed, the scorching sunlight can be projected from the outside and shine directly on the helmsman's body, which is indeed a very hot position.
For this reason, Tang Sanzang specially took off the brocade robe he was wearing to Tianshu, which was embroidered with many small Ruyi beads and cool beads, and people felt very cool when they put it on, and used it to cool down and cool off, which was the best at that time.
In the middle of the three positions, each fixed this wooden pedal, in order to make the pedal can operate normally, the bottom of the three positions is hollowed out, and even the bottom wood made of power transmission device and the force transmission belt woven from turf are faintly visible.
The three seats arranged in the shape of a pint are all woven with the finest quality blades of grass, which are smooth and delicate, even if it is a sunny summer, people lie on it and feel comfortable to cool off, and use it to relieve fatigue, which is the best.
Bajie took the position of stepping on the first pedal in a matter-of-fact manner, looked back at Master Tang Sanzang, who was comfortably lying in the back seat, and said with bad intentions: "Master, since you are so boasting about your skills in pedaling, should you start this first wave of action?"
Sanzang snorted coldly, turned his neck leisurely, and got up proudly and said: "I'll come, I'll come, pig head, you've been running around hard lately, just take a rest first, and give up the position of the first place to Wujing and Ao Bai." ”
Bajie glared at him, waved his hand and raised the bar and said: "No, no, although my old pig is hard and has little energy, it is always better than the master's stamina, since you are out of the horse, how can you be an apprentice and not give up your life to accompany you, rest assured, as long as you don't shout tired, even if my old pig breaks his legs, he will never stop first." ”
