Mountains and seas can be flat

Fang Zheng and Zifeng didn't want to provoke the crazy patriarch, so they stood still.The white-haired Patriarch Qigong jumped off the beam and landed on all fours, sniffing around them like a big cat.

It didn't look like any human communication was possible. Fang Zheng saw a table in the middle of the room with various strange parts on it.He tentatively walked to the table, and the patriarch jumped onto the table and lay down on his stomach, protecting all his treasures.

Fang Zheng and Zifeng continued to walk into the large yard, where there were abandoned empty barrels with coal ore and wood left in them.There are many rooms in the courtyard, and each room has different mechanical parts. Fang Zheng found that most of the materials are brass and wood. The lower hook should be used for transport.

In addition, there are many horns, claws and bones of animals, which are made into utensils of various shapes.For example, the utensils are made of cattle and sheep skulls, and the head of a bird is used as a lamp holder.

In the last room, there is only a huge pit in it, and a huge "ice" is covered in the center of the pit.

From a distance, Zheng could see a "horse" with a snow-white body, a red mane, and closed eyes frozen in the "ice". When he got closer, he could see that the "ice-like" shell should be crystal ore. , like the lid of a crystal coffin.This "Kirliang" is actually sleeping in the crystal, no wonder it can live for more than 100 years.

Just as Fang Zheng walked a little into the huge pit, the patriarch jumped over to block Fang Zheng again. He was holding the crystal stone and trembling a little, which made Fang Zheng suddenly realize: it was probably because he and Zifeng had too much evil spirit, and the other party didn't care about it. Dare to do it directly.

Next to the "crystal coffin", there is a small "robot", which is made of brass, wood and animal bones. Its arms are like whips, and it is extremely huge.In one huge hand held a thin knife, and in the other a piece of bark.

Fang Zheng was shocked when he saw it, why does this "robot" seem to be "engraving"?

Looking closer, there is still a crystal clear crystal in the mechanical head.Fang Zheng was amazed. Behind the robot was a bloated and huge power plant, with many barrels of flames burning underneath, which presumably consumed a lot of energy.

There was a round bump on the top of the "robot" head, and Fang Zheng tentatively threw a small stone to touch it, and its abnormally huge arm moved as expected, drawing a trajectory on the bark in a haphazard manner.

When it moved, the patriarch heard the sound and his whole body trembled, his eyes were cloudy and clear alternately, his fingers made mud marks on the ground, he suddenly screamed strangely, and threw something at Fang Zheng and the others.

Both Fang Zheng and Zifeng avoided it quickly, but the thing spread out in the air. It was a kind of liquid, which tasted a bit like oil, and a few drops splashed on them.Although Fang Zheng has a golden bell cover, it consumes a lot of energy and cannot be used frequently. He is afraid that there are other organs in the room of this weird patriarch, so he didn't block it this time, because he observed that the liquid that fell to the ground first did not show anything. Destructive symptoms of venom volatilization or corrosion.

Having said that, there was still a momentary sting when a few drops of liquid fell on the skin, Fang Zheng quickly brushed off the liquid.It doesn't seem to have any effect other than a little reddening of the skin.

Zifeng looked over with concern, and Zifeng also splashed a few drops, but his almost invulnerable physique didn't feel the slightest.

Taking this gap, the crazy patriarch seemed to wake up a bit, crawled to the side of the robot with difficulty, groped on the ground with his hands, looked back at Fang Zheng and the others, and said hoarsely: "Take away..."

With his fingers, he opened a trap on the ground, which was filled with bark with various inscriptions, and rolls of mechanical diagrams, all carved on tortoise shells or wood chips.However, after he was able to save himself enough to say those words, he was irritated by this pile of things again, his eyes turned red, and he jumped down and bit like a wild beast.

Fang Zheng and Zifeng quickly lifted him out of the pit, and Zifeng restrained him, not letting go no matter how violently he pulled.Fang Zheng gathered up the pile of bark and tortoise shells, ran to the door quickly, asked the guard to open the door, and handed everything out through the gap.

Then Fang Zheng turned his head and shouted to Zifeng: "Go!"

Zifeng threw the patriarch to the edge of the crystal pit from a distance, left the room with Fang Zheng, and stepped out of the courtyard.The guard quickly re-locked the door, and the patriarch's crazy roar came from behind the door, which made people feel lingering.

"He asked us to bring these things out, do you recognize the text on them?"

Santu knew this kind of script of Qigong Kingdom, which was an ancient script, and the later Yu Dynasty script also used some of it as a reference, and Zifeng and Changling also recognized a little bit.Most of the patterns on the tortoise shells are not complete, but only intractable diseases carved by the patriarch.Those barks recorded his confusion and experience.Santu translated for them.

"...Perpetual motion is impossible. There is no closed-loop collection method. Once the 'force' is used, it is impossible to loop back, and the breath soil cannot be created."

Although Fang Zheng listened to this with the knowledge of modern people, there was nothing wrong with it, but for people at that time, denying the ancestors required great courage and perseverance, and it should have been written under great pressure and pain.

"The structure and function of the animal body are the source of manufacturing, and the phenomenon of life is inseparable from the principle of machinery..."

From a modern point of view, this belongs to bionics. Fang Zheng was surprised that it was recognized so early, and it really is a magical and intelligent tribe.

However, after that, the three pictures of the three-armed man hesitated a little, not daring to continue reading.Chang Ling snatched the bark over, recognized some without much difficulty, and continued to speak loudly:

"I clearly feel that my heart is changing. The more I delve into it, the more killing and destruction I have in my heart. Since I can blow up hundreds of people with a small stone, I can get into a copper shell to kill people, no matter what. How many armies are helpless against me... Such a thought is not good, maybe I should stop..."

"Master is right. Those who have a machine must have a mind, but if it is stored in the chest, it will be pure white and unprepared..."

"So what if it is made? There is no quiet place in this world. It can be used as a tool for the killing of a big country, or it can be hidden here and idle for a lifetime. But I can't stop... I'm almost there..."

"The waking time is getting shorter and shorter. I carved those words on the bark to remind myself that I am a person, but I can't find it. There are sawdust around my mouth. Is it chewed? I should build something to write it down for me. , dig another trap, and store things in it..."

"Even if Kira wakes up, there is no temperature, but if it is only made of wood, why hasn't the hair and toes stopped growing? I really want to kill it and cut it open...stop...stop..."

"I thought I knew a lot. After reading this volume, I can't figure out even if I have twice the life span. People can die while alive, which makes my hair stand on end."

"My father told me that we Chichi people use one arm to do things, so we have to work twice as hard as others to learn so much. But I am really tired, and I understand the mood of the patriarch back then-he did Not being able to get out of the soil, and being so tired every day, he connected himself with a prosthetic hand that can move on his own to escape...but that thing drove him crazy. What he connected was a prosthetic hand that can still be used after death , it should be 'the hand of that thing'... Is he crazy or is that thing controlling him. Never touch it..."

"East copper and west pottery, south stone and north jade, the stalemate has been stalemate for nearly 50 years, and it must end. Badian tames a python king, and tens of thousands of people will die; Yu Yi's Yuqiang camp picks people, picks one out of a thousand, and feeds the rest to wild animals; Xia Zhu’s emery grinds jade, it’s impossible to estimate; Zu Jiang’s crazy women regard all men as enemies..."

"The travel map left by the ancestors 60 years ago, the human border has doubled compared to today's, and the biggest threat only comes from the corpses of the gods, but the emperor sent heroes to guard the Quartet...even if they have not been eliminated. But now, no one Regardless of this problem, everyone is fighting with people. God corpses will eat up villages one by one in remote places where there is no communication... I don’t know if they are the same as Kira, their bodies have no temperature. I haven’t in my life Saw it with my own eyes and prayed it never came."

"The weak waters in the west are a thousand feet deep, and the buildings in the east are a thousand feet high. The heroes have been forgotten, and people's lives are getting more and more miserable."

When Chang Ling read this, the surroundings were already completely silent.Fang Zheng broke the silence and asked, "What is a corpse?"

"Then, isn't that a legend?" Qigongren Santu stammered, "It's something with a human face and a snake body. I always thought it was made up."

"I've seen it." Fang Zheng's face was gloomy, thinking back to the sassafras and horse's belly, and the huge skull he saw in his subconscious when he closed his eyes, and the abyss at the foot of Kunlun Mountain... "Why is it called the god's corpse?"

Santu tremblingly said: "Because it is said that they are transformed from the corpses of gods after death."

But listening to the tone in the patriarch's notes, it is related to biological principles and mechanical manufacturing, but it has exceeded the scope of what he can explain. .

Fang Zheng thought of the legend about Sassafras in the "Shan Hai Jing". He was killed by the second king and the danger. After his death, the Yellow Emperor asked the Ten Witches to resurrect him, but the resurrected Sassafras turned into a wild beast. An invulnerable monster that eats people everywhere.In the end, he was eliminated by Dayi.But after experiencing what happened in the tomb of Emperor Yao Yu, Fang Zheng understood that it had not been removed, but was trapped in the dead eye of the emperor, and escaped with a genetic mutation 60 years later.Zifeng had been swallowed by it once, and it was said that the inside was as hard as a rock, and he didn't know how it worked.

Hearing so much information, their minds are very confused, especially the few odd-armed people, who suddenly understood the truth about the arm, and they all collapsed. There is no reason why the arm will become a monster. It is the human heart that cannot bear it. Tempted to install other things to go up, was backlashed, but the whole family has to bear the burden...

Fang Zheng was thinking about the information revealed here that there was a frenzied strife among the great powers, resulting in a tragic and dark social picture.Some technologies in this era obviously do not match the productivity. After listening to the words of Patriarch Qizhi, he became more and more convinced that in order to maintain it, it is necessary to use a deformed squeeze structure to transport resources and nutrients.

This is why the natural resources in this era are not scarce, but the people still live in such a miserable cold thread. Fang Zheng once grasped it for a moment, and now he finally pulled it all out.

Internally, it is "serving one person with the world", accumulating a handful of excellent combat preparation methods at the top, while externally, it is mutual defense, hostility, and consumption. Internal and external cause and effect each other.

There is also the phrase "machinery and machine heart", which was actually passed down to later generations of classics and was written in "Zhuangzi", which means that with things like machinery, there will inevitably be cleverness and machine-changing thoughts, and then the state of mind will be different. No matter how pure and clear, the spirit will not be single-minded and stable... It was originally a very philosophical statement.But the Ichibrai people study the axis force, which explains why they tend to go crazy.They are originally pure craftsmen, but they have repeatedly endorsed for the upper class, thinking about the people's livelihood, it is easy to fail to figure it out, and they are stuck in it and cannot get out.

The more Fang Zheng thought about it, the more he became suffocated, and the other Qigong people also wanted to calm down. They sat in the open space outside the yard without saying a word, and checked the bark with engraved words. Many of the nicks on the bark could not be read. It was scribbled by the robot, or it might have been when the patriarch went crazy.

Fang Zheng saw that Zifeng was quickly gesturing to Changling to order something. Fang Zheng noticed that Zifeng's gesture was not complicated, but could it actually convey the complicated knowledge in the yard just now?It is also the same during negotiations, Zifeng often only needs to slap the table a few times, and Changling can understand his meaning and say a long paragraph.how did you do that?

If you can master it yourself, you don’t need to learn those complicated words one by one.

Fang Zheng walked over and asked, "Can you teach me this set of gestures?"

Changling glanced at Zifeng in embarrassment, saw Zifeng shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm really sorry, this set of gestures has a lot to do with our marching arrangements, and it can't be passed on to the outside world. Many of them are meant in battle. We use Once you are familiar with it, and then slowly extend it to your life, only those who are close to you will understand. I get along with Master Zifeng day and night..."

Zifeng's expression changed, and he gave Changling a hard look.The latter is inexplicable, and I don't know what is wrong.

Fang Zheng was stunned, smiled slightly, and said, "Okay."

Fang Zheng simply turned his head away and walked away. Zifeng reached out behind his back to grab him, but he was in vain.Zifeng hurriedly chased after him, but Fang Zheng seemed to hide on purpose, just walking a little faster than him to prevent Zifeng from catching up with him.

Chang Ling stared at their backs inexplicably, belatedly, the deep undercurrents in his eyes surged.

Fang Zheng turned around and said, "Why are you following me? I don't understand what you mean. You go to spend time with you—"

Zifeng suddenly couldn't help laughing, although he couldn't make a sound, this was indeed the first time Fang Zheng saw Zifeng laugh after reunion.Not only is he smiling, but his eyes are shining.

Only then did Fang Zheng realize that he had made a low-level mistake-this tone seemed to be that he cared, so he was a little jealous.

He quickly distinguished: "I didn't—"

Halfway through the distinction, he suddenly realized, why should he explain?Does it have anything to do with who Zifeng spends day and night with?He hasn't forgiven Zifeng yet.

But Fang Zheng couldn't ignore the subtle pantothenic acid in his heart, and indeed he felt a little uncomfortable when he heard those four words.

Zifeng suddenly took Fang Zheng's hand, but Fang Zheng didn't break away at the first time.When he was still struggling, his hand was pressed against his heart by the quilt, and the warmth of the cloth passed through.Zifeng leaned forward and gently touched the corner of Fang Zheng's lips, brushing against his heart like a feather, and Fang Zheng heard the beating of the heart clearly.

The place where Fang Zheng was touched by those few drops of liquid just now burst into flames uncontrollably. His brain hurt and he couldn't move.Fang Zheng closed his eyes and fell back straight.
