One hundred and eight chapters

"How is today's meal better than the previous days?" Bai Muxue asked.

Liu San was already able to eat with Bai Muxue on the same case at this time, and the two were friends.

Liu San said while eating: "I have something to do tomorrow, I'm afraid that the person who will bring you food tomorrow will deal with the matter, so I will get some good ones today, so I can let you know that it is good to have my friend." ”

Bai Muxue rolled her eyes and said, "I don't regard you as a friend anymore, your only role is to send me food and accompany me to relieve my fatigue." ”

"Yes, yes, you can say anything, you won't see me tomorrow anyway." Liu San put down the dishes and chopsticks and said.

Bai Muxue asked, "What, are you going to do something to kill you?" ”

"Can I assume that you care about me?" Qin Xi asked with a smile.

"Then you think too much, we are healers, and we have long looked down on life and death, if you die, it will be like that." Bai Muxue said with a smile.

"It's so ruthless." Liu San shook his head and sighed, then said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just to accompany the famous family to check the mechanism in the mountain." ”

After Bai Muxue heard this, she said leisurely: "It seems that the second attack of the Qin army is about to begin. ”

"Do you know the Qin army's first attack on the mountain?" Liu San asked with a slight frown.

"Well, the Qin army attacked the mountain with great momentum, and at that time I was only imprisoned outside, and then I was transferred to this dark place." Bai Muxue said.

"Do you think you'll be able to keep it this time?" Liu San asked.

Bai Muxue pulled the leftovers with chopsticks and said, "The Yin and Yang family has been guarded, I still have to be locked up in this dark place, life is better than death." The Yin and Yang family can't hold it, I don't believe that the Qin army will let me go, it's still better to live than to die. So what does this question you ask have to do with me? ”

Liu San looked at Bai Muxue and said, "If it really comes to that time, I will save you out." ”

"Why?" Bai Muxue asked without raising her head.

"There's no why, because you're my friend." Liu San said with a smile.

"Friends? Only a fool would believe in a so-called friend. Bai Muxue said with a smile.

······

The next day, Liu San did not go to the top of the mountain to cultivate, but arrived at the Yin and Yang Hall early.

In the hall, Liu Qi and an elder of the Yin and Yang family were talking to a thin old man with a scruffy beard and wearing linen clothes.

And beside Liu San, there are more than ten disciples, all of whom are carefully selected elites of the Yin and Yang family.

Although Liu San is now Liu Qi's most optimistic disciple, his status in this group of people can only be ranked last, because these guys are either disciples of the Great Elder or disciples of Yin Yuanzi, and their status has been raised.

After the first three discussed, Liu Qi stood up and said: "Next, no matter what you see, no matter what you come into contact with, no matter what you do, you have to forget it after you come out, you know?" ”

"Disciple obeys the law!" The disciples said in unison.

Liu Qi nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the two black robes in the depths of the hall and said, "Open the door." ”

The two black robes pressed a mechanism at the same time, and then the ground in the center of the hall slowly parted, and a dark passage appeared.

"Master, please." Liu Qi said politely, and then walked down with the elder of the famous family, followed by another elder and a group of disciples.

This dark passage is not deep, and it will soon be finished, and there is a door inside.

After Liu Qi opened the door with the key, Liu San saw a dense set of gears, but they were made of wood or bronze.

If you look in the direction of these gears, you can see many bronze chains and iron chains, drilling out of the wall, and you don't know where they are going.

Liu San also heard the sound of turbulent water, and looked down, and the turbulent whirlpool water below continued to push the operation of this mechanism.

"It is worthy of being the masterpiece of the Yin and Yang family and the Mo family at their peak." The master sighed.

Liu Qi asked, "Master, is there anything that needs to be changed?" ”

"This old man has to see for himself." The master said.

So the people walked down the spiral staircase on the stone wall around the main axis of the huge mechanism.

And the master's eyes never left the main shaft of this mechanism, and when he saw that there was a damage that needed to be replaced, he would point it out one by one, and then it was written down by another old man.

After coming to the top of the stream, Liu Qi asked, "Master, have you found anything from above?" ”

The master shook his head and said, "Although this mechanism is not perfect, it cannot be changed significantly, and can only be modified from external mechanisms. ”

"The external mechanisms have all been changed by the previous master, but if you don't change the core here, its rules can still be easily figured out by the Mo family." Liu Qi frowned and said.

The master shook his head and said, "No, it really can't be changed, let's go to disassemble the entire spindle, reassemble and rebuild, otherwise it's impossible, but now do you have time?" ”

"How long will that take?" Liu Qi asked.

The master patted Liu Qi on the shoulder and said: "This matter is not so simple, it can be said that it drives the entire Yin and Yang Mountain here, and it will take at least fifty or sixty days to disassemble it, and then it will take at least more than a hundred days to reassemble and reassemble, which means that if it goes well, it will take at least half a year."

And once this main axis changes, the outside mechanism must also be changed, tossed back and forth, ideally it will take more than a year, and this is only an ideal situation, otherwise it will take two or three years.

Moreover, the large amount of money and manpower spent among them is a huge number, and you Yin and Yang family may not be able to afford it now. ”

Liu Qi sighed and said, "Indeed, it's not just that the time is not enough, it's not worth it. ”

"I heard that you are going to give up Yin Yang Mountain, it seems to be true, so there is no need to change it, and to be honest, the Qin people have the Mo family, and you really can't defend this mountain." The master of the famous family said.

Liu Qi nodded and said to the master of the famous family: "There will be Master Lao next." ”

"You're welcome." The master replied.

Then Liu Qi came to the side of the stone wall, pressed down a protruding stone, and a stone room immediately appeared.

"Elder Wu, take them in to get the materials." Liu Qi said.

"Who." That Elder Wu beckoned to Liu San and the other disciples, and then entered the stone room.

After entering the stone chamber and lighting the lamp, Liu San saw that the stone chamber was actually full of various parts, which were obviously used to replace the damaged parts.

And there's a blacksmith shop in the deepest part of the city, which can also make parts.

According to the order, Liu San took a huge gear and came out, and then a group of people followed the famous elder to replace the parts on the spindle.

After spending most of the day, it was finally replaced. So Liu Qi asked Elder Wu to invite the famous patriarch out, but left a group of disciples.

Liu San knew that the next thing was the main event.

(Popular science knowledge, according to the current archaeological discoveries, China has been using gears around 400 BC.) ）
