Chapter 176: The Principle of Leverage Moves Boulders
Li Guifei and his entourage walked towards the established route under the guidance of Sheng Shi, along the way, Sheng Shi explained all kinds of mountains and rivers in a very detailed manner, and the dashing and extraordinary Sheng Shi made Princess Sujin even look at Sheng Shi with starlight in her eyes.
"The place we are about to arrive at is Qifeng Mountain, which used to be...
Without waiting for Sheng Shi to finish speaking, suddenly the rolling rocks tilted down, falling from the sky, for a while people were startled, and the group screamed and retreated, but fortunately, the rocks were just piled up in the valley, and there were no casualties.
Prince Rong was shocked and angry: "How could there be a thing where a mountain rock fell from a cliff? ”
Sheng Shi hurriedly got out of the car to check, after he looked carefully, he felt that something was wrong, these rocks seemed to have been tied with rattan or ropes and other things, and some ropes were also found in the mountain stone pile, it was obvious that someone was deliberately framing Sheng Shi and preventing them from going east!
Li Guifei said angrily: "Sheng Shi, how did you lead the way?" ”
Sheng Shi replied calmly: "Hui Niang Chitose, the rocks here were artificially dropped, I suggest quickly sending soldiers to search the mountain pass and the valley above, I expect that the thieves will not run far!" ”
But Sheng Shi underestimated Zhong Mingyuan's plan, and Zhong Mingyuan sent a team of men to prepare the rocks, but only one person was left to cut the rope. The others had already retreated, and this man was still a thin teenager who had grown up in the mountains and valleys, and it was easy to get out of the valley.
Prince Rong ordered: "The Rong family army listened to the order and quickly searched for suspicious people on the mountain, be sure to see people alive and corpses dead!" ”
Two teams of two hundred Xuanjia soldiers shouted in unison: "Follow the orders of the prince!" ”
Then, Sheng Shi ordered the rest of the people to move the rocks, but the rocks were too large for such a small number of people to move.
"What can I do?" Peony, who was accompanying her, said anxiously.
Concubine Li Guifei asked coldly, "Sheng Shi, do you want to let this palace spend a day and a night here?" ”
Su Jin also sprinkled coquettishly and said, "No, people don't want to spend a day here, Sheng Shi, you can find a way for me!" ”
Sheng Shi thought about it left and right, and suddenly remembered that Sheng Guoer had invented a pressure well in Dongxiang Village, and immediately decided to modify Sheng Guoer's invention draft slightly, make a crane, and move the mountains and rocks!
And only one passable road is left, and now that the matter is urgent, there is no need to take care of other rocks.
Sheng Shi ordered: "Everyone listen to my command, go and cut down some trees, make planks, and chop some thick rattan back, and then rub them together to form ropes, and the soldiers take off the heads of the hook and sickle, hurry!" ”
Everyone looked at Sheng Shi's confident appearance, and they all felt that he must have a way, so they all went and prepared to go.
Li Guifei was a little puzzled: "What's the use of this?" ”
But Su Jin held his chin and said happily: "I don't know what new tricks Sheng Shi, this stinky boy, can play?" ”
But seeing that everything was in order, Sheng Shi ordered everyone to place the planks under the largest rock in the middle of the road, and then divide the rattan rope into four strands, that is, in four directions, and tie the hook and sickle head to the ends of the four ropes, so that a huge hook lock was formed. The hook lock is then fastened to the plank underneath the rock.
Immediately afterwards, Sheng Shi ordered people to find a thick tree, and then bypassed the rattan from the top of the trunk to form a pulley-like tool.
Immediately afterwards, Sheng Shi said with a smile: "Tie all the rattan to our carriage, and all the personnel on the carriage will be withdrawn to a safe place, and see how I can lift this 10,000-pound boulder!" ”
Li Guifei disagreed, thinking that although these tricks looked tricky and weird, it was a fantasy that a few rattans could lift a 10,000-pound boulder.
However, Su Jin felt very curious, got out of the car, hid in a safe area, looked at Sheng Shi on the opposite side and asked, "Sheng Shi, you will be fine, why don't you let the people move!" ”
Sheng Shi shook his hand, then put one hand to his lips and shouted like a megaphone: "Hey, I'm fine, don't worry!" ”
Prince Rong also didn't believe that Sheng Shi could have such ability. But he was experienced after all, so he looked at Sheng Shi's so-called skill of moving mountains and reclamation quietly!
Just saying that he didn't practice the fake tricks, Sheng Shi secretly prayed that his sister's plan would be successful, otherwise it would not only be Li Guifei and the Zhong family who would be offended, but even Prince Rong's family would be offended, so wouldn't we be going against people again.
Sheng Guoer repeatedly advised herself to be lenient with others, strict with herself, and thoughtful in doing things.
Therefore, Sheng Shi felt that this plan must be caught.
Finally, with the unremitting efforts of everyone, a huge "crane" with tree trunks as levers was completed.
Sheng Guo'er whistled, the four coachmen rode their horses together, and the eight horses were in pain and ran forward.
A miraculous scene happened, the boulder was actually pried and steadily rose into the air, Sheng Shi hurriedly ordered all the carriages to stop, and then tied four ropes to the four trees and fixed them!
After some operations, Li Guifei and others, including Prince Rong, were dumbfounded. I didn't expect Sheng Shi to be able to really move a thousand pounds in four or two, and he was able to skillfully lift the boulder easily! Prince Rong exclaimed: "Sure enough, Sheng Shi, how did you come up with this method?" ”
Sheng Shi said modestly: "This method is also taught to me by my sister Sheng Guoer, she once used this method to teach us to build a pressure well, the people no longer have to go to the river to draw water, there are times when it is not very clean, but my sister said that the groundwater quality is very good, so I built a pressure well, and I also built such a crane according to the principle of her pressure well!" ”
Prince Rong said thoughtfully: "I didn't expect this Sheng Guoer to be a genius in terms of construction, no wonder I have heard that the two villages in the east and west have changed a lot along the way, not only is life here like a fairyland, everyone can eat and drink without having to work by themselves, now it seems that it may be credible!" ”
Sheng Shi said: "My sister said that science and technology are the primary productive forces, and it is absolutely impossible without science and technology. Moreover, my sister also said that if you give her a fulcrum, she can lift the whole earth up! ”
Prince Rong and the others looked at each other when they heard this, and asked one after another, "What do these words mean?" ”
Sheng Shi explained: "My sister said that if a country wants to develop, it must be inseparable from the technology of skilled craftsmen, and the earth is the land where we live, and my sister also said that the place where we live is a round sphere, and the people opposite us are still upside down, but when we go, this sphere keeps rotating, and we won't walk backwards when we get to the other side!" ”
Prince Rong was very curious when he heard these new concepts, and asked, "Sheng Shi, are all your knowledge and talents taught by your sister?" ”
Sheng Shi said: "That's right, there is also my brother-in-law Meng Xingzhou, who not only taught me poetry and songs, but also taught me the way to be an official and the truth of loving the people like a son!" ”
Prince Rong touched Sheng Shi's shoulder very fondly and said: "No wonder there are poems in ancient times, I advise the Heavenly Lord to be vigorous and eclectic to reduce talents!" ”
Su Jin listened to it fascinated, shook his head and said to himself: "So handsome!" ”
The carriage continued to move, and on the way, Sheng Shi was still introducing, but at this moment Su Jin had begun to become very well-behaved, not only did not interject, but would listen quietly, and even pour tea for Sheng Shi.
"Brother Sheng Shi, how do you know so much?" Su Jin looked at Sheng Shi with a look and asked.
Sheng Shi said with a smile: "I like to read on weekdays, I like to work in the fields, I like to listen to my sister and brother-in-law tell stories and reason, and I know a little bit about miscellaneous things." ”
Su Jin asked a little shyly: "I grew up in the deep palace since I was a child, although there are also teaching masters, but they are all a group of stinking and sour sour rotten literati, one by one like living zombies, there is no knowledge that can be applied to the world, unlike you, you are well-versed in the past and the present, and you know how to adapt to the situation, what is even more rare is that you are modest and cautious, low-key and unassuming, and brilliant, I always feel that I don't understand anything in front of you, you won't dislike me, look down on me!" ”
Sheng Shi looked at Princess Sujin's delicate face with an expectant face, his heart softened, and said, "Princess, how dare you look down on the princess!" ”
Princess Sujin asked rhetorically, "What are you?" ”
Sheng Shi replied honestly: "I belong to the rabbit!" ”
Su Jin silently remembered it in his heart and said with a smile: "I also belong to rabbits, the two of us are a phase, and we are also born in a year!" ”
Sheng Shi still adhered to the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, hurriedly got up and knelt in the carriage, and said: "The princess is a thousand years old, you must not say it, it is difficult to protect Sheng Shi's life, and you are the jade rabbit of the heavenly palace, and I am a hare in the forest, the two are not the same!" ”
Su Jin gently approached Sheng Shi, blew like an orchid in his mouth, and said: "I said that you are, you are, I said that you are not a hare in the forest, you are the jade rabbit of the Heavenly Palace!" ”
Sheng Shi was shocked by Su Jin's innate royal domineering.
Since ancient times, the horse is a very enviable profession, but it is also a profession without achievements.
Sheng Shi's performance made Su Jin even more infatuated with him.
Su Jin directly took Sheng Shi's hand and said, "Are you okay to be my master?" ”
Sheng Shi hurriedly withdrew his hand and prostrate on the ground and said: "How can you teach the princess in Xiade!" ”
Princess Sujin said: "What about the heroic energy you had just now, let's say, how much money do you want?" ”
Sheng Shi said: "Princess Huiyu, there is no shortage of money in the future, and I just want to dedicate my strength to the people of the Dasheng Dynasty in the future!" ”
Su Jin sighed and said: "That's right, who made you Sheng Guo'er's younger brother, Sheng Guo'er is a vigorous and resolute woman, but her attitude towards feelings has always been very straightforward!" ”
Sheng Shi said: "That was after I met my brother-in-law, so you can't compare this matter with this matter!" ”
The words choked Princess Sujin had nothing to say, and fell into a stalemate for a while.
At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the front, instantly stunned everyone!
