The banquet is placed in the flower hall surrounded by the lake water of Xianyue Lake, which is as clear as a wash, and the nine-curved bridge railing. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Surrounded by royal blue water, the white jade railing is also stained with a light shade of blue.

Suddenly, the wind rises, the lake moves, the sound surges, and the fragrance wafts.

The light breeze that constantly blows on the surface of the lake, the ethereal and graceful sound of the piano, and the fragrance of laurel flowers.

It turns out that there is also a laurel tree on the side of the flower hall, which is evergreen all year round, and the tree posture is particularly beautiful, with clusters of small pale yellow flowers. Chris took a closer look, the huge tree roots protruded, and there was a guqin coiled, and several slightly thin roots pressed on the strings, and when the wind blew, the roots plucked the strings to make a simple and pleasant tone.

Wow, this isn't a natural music box, such an ingenious idea!

She couldn't help but admire: "This laurel guqin is wonderful, it's really elegant!"

On Teng Chuliang's cheeks, there was even a touch of imperceptible pink under Li's complexion, and he said lightly: "This is Teng's own idea, made by himself!"

"Such ingenuity, it is actually from Brother Teng's hand?"

Teng Chuliang nodded his head and said softly: "In addition to pottery, I have always liked to make some clever playthings. ”

Who would have thought that a man who seemed clumsy and stout would be so ingenious.

Chris said: "It turns out that the valley master is not only familiar with gardens and feng shui, but also has such good craftsmanship!"

The attendants and boys of Xianyue Valley were in awe and awe of Teng Chuliang, and they only felt that what their master thought and did were objects that could only be seen in the Heavenly Palace, and few friends had praised him so bluntly, and Chris's words set off a warm current in his heart.

Back at the flower hall seat, the two sat next to each other, Chris took the package from his back, opened it, and said: "I also bought a favorite treasure today, if it weren't for it, I wouldn't have knocked down Brother Teng's boy, so I made today's incident." ”

"Oh, what kind of treasure?"

Inside the package is a wooden and quaint board.

How can a wooden board be counted as a treasure? Teng Chuliang was also a little curious, and asked, "What is this?"

Chris was overjoyed to find this movable type printing board today, she was going to print Buddhist scriptures for Master Qianzi, and then she had this board to persuade those craftsmen who were accustomed to engraving printing, believing that they would soon understand the benefits of this movable type, she replied emotionally: "This is Bi Sheng's movable type printing board!"

Teng Chuliang muttered, "Bi Sheng?"

Whether it was the name of a person or an object, it was the first time he had heard of it.

Xiong Daiying was also at a loss.

Movable type printing is one of the four great inventions of ancient China. However, as Chinese think, many Westerners do not see movable type printing as an important invention of China's influence on the world. Although it was invented by Bi Sheng in 1048, Westerners believe that in 1440, Gutenberg invented movable type printing on his own in an independent environment. In the history of Western culture, the influence of Chinese printing is considered to be very limited. Therefore, most foreigners do not know who Bi Sheng is. Why Chris knows it, because when she was learning design, the teacher of the typesetting and printing class was also a Chinese descendant, although his Chinese was not as familiar as Chris said, but he was a fan of ancient printing and a fan of Bi Sheng, he was very unhappy that everyone had not heard of Bi Sheng, and the coursework was set to study Bi Sheng and his movable type printing, and asked the students to reproduce movable type printing!

So Chris was very excited when she saw this board, and she said to herself: I got an A+ in my printing class back then! Maybe this is Bi Sheng's original version!

Chris raised his head and glanced at Teng Chuliang and Xiong Daiying, and repeated, "Movable type printing board!

Teng Chuliang suddenly realized: "No wonder the words on this wooden board are reversed, you are talking about the engraving plate for printing." ”

Chris said, "This is indeed for printing, but it is better than engraving, this is a movable type board." ”

"Movable type?"

"The engraving is carved from the whole board at one time, and you can see that the small characters on it can be removed and rearranged, and the reuse greatly reduces the cost of printing, which is an epoch-making improvement. She said happily.

When Chris wanted to remove a movable type block, he sighed and said, "Strange?"

"What's weird?!"

She tried to push harder, but the small square movable type blocks did not move on the wooden board, "If it is a movable type printing board, then the words on it should be able to be removed, but this one does not work...... "Did I guess wrong?"

Teng Chuliang leaned over and asked, "Can you let Teng take a look." ”

Nodding, Chris handed him the plank.

The weight of the wooden board made Teng Chuliang slightly surprised, seeing that the wood was hard and strong, but it was not so heavy. He looked down from the side, and the thickness was also quite impressive. The cross groove divides the plank into four sections, with the same number of lettered blocks per grid...... After looking at the side and bottom again, Teng Chuliang could already conclude that this seemingly ordinary wooden board on the outside should have a very delicate mechanism inside. The man who made this mechanism was a skillful worker, and he had never seen such a strange object. However, after all, it was not his own thing, and it was not easy to fiddle with it, so he suppressed his curiosity to find out and pushed the plank back in front of Chris.

He pointed to some special grooves on the side of the plank, and said, "Ouyang Gongzi, look, I think this is obviously a tenon and groove." ”

"Tongue and groove?"

Chris looked at the place he was pointing, and there were clouds and stars on it, and she noticed it at first, but thought it was just a carved pattern on a wooden board.

"From all the books I've read, there's no record that a cloud-shaped raglan tenon can be matched with a star-shaped rivet tenon. He swept his fingers over some round and half-moon-shaped protrusions, and said with a frown, "This protrusion is definitely a tenon, but if they represent the sun and the moon, they are not like it, there are many pinstripes connecting them in the middle, and some of them have multiple grooves, to be honest, I have never seen such a strange and complex structure." ”

Chris stretched out his hand and touched Teng Chuliang's fingers, the round protrusions, large and small, the half-moon-shaped protrusions, thick and thin, those pinstripes interspersed in between, layered on top of each other, not strange.

"There are a lot of things I don't understand, but one thing I know for sure. Teng Chuliang said firmly, "This plank is by no means one, these mortises and tenons are used to connect with other planks. ”

Hearing this, Chris's eyes widened and he asked, "What does Brother Teng mean, this is one of the planks that can be combined?"

"That's right, it's amazing how complex the mortise and tenon joints are constructed. Teng Chuliang continued: "There are only two sides of this plank with mortise and tenon, which means that there should be at least three or four pieces of this plank. ”

Chris was silent for a long time, and then came to his senses: "Maybe it's all together, and the movable type on this can be moved!"

Teng Chuliang nodded slightly and said, "The black wooden block in the cross groove should be the mechanism that controls the movement of the movable type block." ”

After fiddling with the black pieces of wood that didn't move at all, Chris replied, "You're right!"

"It seems that Ouyang Gongzi did buy a treasure, which is very interesting. ”

Chris's expression was sincere, and he thanked: "Thanks to Brother Teng's guidance, I know that this thing still contains such a secret, you know a lot." ”

Looking at Ouyang Feng, Teng Chu said in a cool heart: This is really hard to find, God will send someone who understands me today! ”

Chris smiled and said, "I call you Brother Teng, but you still call me Ouyang Gongzi, it's too much of an outsider." ”

Teng Chuliang said bluntly: "You and I hit it off at first sight, why don't you worship Jin Lan?"

"Okay!

Xiong Daiying's attention was also on the plank, and when he heard this, he suddenly looked up at the two of them, and sighed in his heart: "Why are you talking and becoming a sworn brother?!"

☆☆☆

Hong Qili rushed to save people in a hurry, who knew that Xianyue Valley was surrounded by traps built according to the terrain, and the Xianyue Lake was close in front of him but he always couldn't walk in front of him, and the huge stones and swaying flowers and trees seemed to have become a barrier, covering the path into the valley, which made people confused.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this mysterious valley lord was so good at the art of gossip. The masters of the Taoist family have always liked Fuxi's gossip technique, but fortunately, when he learned the nine-palace footwork with Mr. Zhizhi, he also studied the content of the Bagua Five Elements, so as not to be completely blind. When he figured out the array of mountains and rocks on the shore of the lake, he walked out of more than ten miles of land from seven high and eight low, and then found the valley mouth into the valley, and he looked up and saw that the time was almost dusk.

Entered the valley mouth, walked through a large piece of grassland, a white jade stone step paved the ground, along the mountain slope downward extension, more than 30 steps after the stone steps turn right, a few zhang after the fold and upward, this stone step twists and turns, the end is a white jade blue tile palace.

In the middle of the line, four white-clothed young men suddenly came out from behind several big trees, and they seemed to be quite surprised when they saw Hong Qili, and asked, "You...... Who are you who dare to trespass into Immortal Moon Valley?"

Hong Qili's face was calm, and anyone who saw it would show a little awe.

"In the beggar gang Hong Qili, I came to meet the valley master. ”

A young man said "ah" and said busily: "Honored guest...... Please wait a moment for Gang Master Hong to wait until I go and report to the Valley Master. ”

Hong Qili glanced at the mountain, it will take a lot of time to make this trip, and when will you wait for the transmission, he snorted coldly and said, "No need, Hong will go up by himself." The four teenagers glanced at each other, and pulled out their weapons together, but they were four iron rulers, and they saw that the four of them were separated, as if they had formed some kind of formation. Hong Qili came here to save people, and he didn't want to entangle more, but he saw him stepping on the Jiugong step, like a swimming fish, and suddenly passed by the side of the four teenagers. The young man only felt a flower in front of him, and he lost the trace of Hong Qili, and they hurriedly turned back, but saw that Hong Qili had gone far away.

Getting rid of the four teenagers, Hong Qili lifted his breath, exerted force under his feet, and flew towards the mountain.

Seeing this, a boy hurried to a large laurel tree, and saw an iron nail nailed to the tree, and a small iron hammer hung on it, he took off the small hammer, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the tree, and a piece of bark bounced away, revealing a hole in the tree, and in it was a small iron bell. He struck it immediately, and the bell rang with a certain rhythm, and after a while, the bell also rang from the direction of Hong Qili's uphill, and it was really loud.

Teng Chuliang and Chris were drinking tea, and suddenly heard the bell ringing in the valley, the bell was still rhythmic at the beginning, but later it became more and more urgent, and even the rhythm was gone. He frowned, this is the bell that has spread that someone has entered the valley. For so many years, although there are people from the rivers and lakes who have good things to do and try to break into Xianyue Valley to find out, at most they go around outside the valley, and the valley mouth is very hidden, and no one has ever been able to enter.

Who can have such great ability? He already knew in his heart that the beggar gang Hong Qili had become famous in the rivers and lakes in the past few years, and he must have come for Ouyang Xian's brother to break into the valley today. Turning his head to look at Ouyang Feng, who had just taken two sips of the teacup, he said, "Sit down, brother sit, and come when you go." ”

As soon as he entered the main hall where the pottery was placed, someone trotted to him to report, panting and saying, "Lord of the valley, the big thing is not good, someone has broken into the valley." ”

Seeing that the boy who came to report the news looked frightened, he was not annoyed and walked straight out.

Hong Qili heard the bell and knew that his whereabouts had been revealed, so he simply stopped hiding, and rushed directly along the avenue all the way to the Xianyue Palace. Although many boys and guards were already guarding the platform on the upper and lower floors, no one could stop him, and Hong Qili had arrived at the juju field in front of the main hall in a blink of an eye.

In front of the main hall, the lights are brightly lit by hundreds of glass lamps, facing the last glow of the sky that has not yet dissipated, the Xianyue Palace is really like a fairyland of Yaochi. Teng Chuliang walked outside the main hall and saw that Hong Qili had been surrounded by the guards of Xianyue Valley.

Hong Qili didn't want to hurt people, and was trying to jump over the crowd and go straight to the main hall. saw an unusually tall man walk out of the crowd, and with his appearance, Hong Qili obviously felt that the atmosphere in the crowd had changed, and suddenly quieted down. The giant man stood in front of the hall, and his bearing was extraordinary.

In the past few years, Hong Qili has become famous, and Teng Chuliang is the first time he has seen a real person. But seeing that the person who came was as tall and majestic as himself, he couldn't help but have the idea of a competition, and said in his heart: If he is so hard today, if I don't make a move, won't I fall into the name of Xianyue Valley? Besides, if you don't do it at this time, it will be inconvenient for the virtuous brother to come out after a while.

Hong Qili saw that the giant man was blocking the outside of the hall, if he wanted to break into the palace, he had to pass by him, he was slow, and he was about to speak, but who knew that the man suddenly pulled onions on the dry ground, and his body ran straight over; don't look at his body as thick as a bear, and his light skills are not weak, and he has been bullied in front of Hong Qili, and he didn't say anything, raised his giant palm, and slapped it at Hong Qili.

Hong Qili broke into the palace to save people this time, naturally he was unwilling to kill people, but when he saw the reaction of everyone after this giant man appeared, it was obvious that this person had a respected status in Xianyue Valley, so it was better to use his power to make Xianyue Valley retreat and release people. With a lifetime of pride in his heart, Hong Qili smiled slightly, he didn't dodge or dodge, and with a single palm, he greeted Teng Chuliang's giant palm.

Teng Chuliang couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart when he saw Hong Qili greet him with a fluttering palm, and he secretly said: This is your own trust, don't blame me for killing your Hong gang leader today. He was secretly lucky, and he added a little more strength to his hands. He didn't know that since Hong Qili had the intention of establishing authority, how could he make a move easily? Hong Qili's palm was exactly a move in the palm of Da Prajna Zen, "One Leaf Walking Zen", which seemed to be plain and unremarkable, but it was the most test of people's internal strength.

It's too late, it's fast, only to hear a muffled sound of "bang", the palms of the two have touched together, both of them are people with strong internal strength, and this palm has moved the heart of Liwei, so it is natural to go all out. When the two forces collided, everyone around them only felt that the qi and blood were surging in their hearts, and then the internal force of the collision was scattered in all directions, and everyone felt that their faces were like a strong wind blowing, and some young people with weak skills were even rushed back a few steps.

Teng Chuliang only felt a strong internal force, like an overwhelming sea, he was secretly surprised, and hurriedly resisted, but he knew that the force was too great, he was pressed by this force, but he felt that his arms were almost broken, he involuntarily retreated two steps in a row, and the strong force suddenly disappeared at this time. Teng Chuliang was already heartbroken at this time, he was condescending, and borrowed a leap forward, and Hong Qili blocked himself with just one palm, and he also had the upper hand. Hong Qili is known as invincible in the rivers and lakes, not to mention the strength of the internal force, it is so easy to send and receive, and he sighs to himself. Sure enough, it lives up to its name!

Hong Qili just slapped with Teng Chuliang, although the other party's internal strength was not as strong as his, but when he took over, Hong Qili suddenly felt a scorching breath, and it actually penetrated through the palm of his hand, he was busy with his internal force to resist, and when he saw Teng Chuliang retreating, he quickly withdrew his palm power. This Xianyue Valley is not very famous in the rivers and lakes, who knew that there was such a novel technique, and Hong Qili was also secretly surprised. He secretly used his internal strength, and after a week in his body, he found that he was not injured by the heat, so he was relieved.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Slow down, two!"
