The mountain ghost blows out the lights

Spring often brings rain.

The fine rain fell continuously for a while and stopped, and the light white clouds covered the sun. A large area of ​​green bricks on the ground was wet, and the color was very dark, but there was wind, and it had begun to dry from the edge, like the slowly fading tide.

There are conditions for woodworking and strict requirements on the weather. If the air-drying process is not in place, the wood will crack and deform, which will affect the final use effect.

The weather in the past few days is obviously not good, but it is not realistic to delay things for this reason.After all, they were short on time, so Shen Lianxing changed the workplace to the prairie where Babao stayed when entertaining its rabbit relatives.

Boss Yan has cultivated the habit for many years. When he has nothing to do, he will resolutely implement his policy of 'can sit, never stand'.He wanted to watch, but he was too lazy to stand and watch all the time, so he asked Xianghe to find another beauty couch from the depths of the warehouse, and placed it directly next to the magpie made by Shen Lianxing, leaning on him to watch him work.

Occasionally, he would help a little bit, but it was all about sawing wood, cutting shapes, helping with assembly, and Shen Lianxing had to do most of the rest by himself.

When Yan Jinping moved the beauty's couch to the grass, Shen Lianxing also persuaded him: "You can just rest in the house, what are you doing moving these? I'm knocking here, and it's affecting your rest. "

It was inevitable that he would make a lot of noise when he was working. No matter how empty the grassland was, he would still feel very noisy when he was so close.Just talking about the effect of rest, it is definitely not as good as Linlang Pavilion.

Boss Yan didn't make a sound, raised the beauty couch with one hand and adjusted its position so that it was facing the Flying Magpie. Then he touched the cushion and leaned back smoothly, waving his hands nonchalantly: "The light here is good, I can read a book, you go about your business, don't worry about me."

He took out a book and read it carefully.

After a while, he didn't hear any movement on Shen Lianxing's end, and peeped out his eyes from the book again: "Is there anything else?"

"It's okay." Shen Lianxing looked at him curiously, concerned about Boss Yan's face, didn't say anything else, just smiled at him slightly.

At the same time, he happily realized by himself: Oh, this is sticking to me.

……

The grassland is always sunny and sunny, and the sun rises and the moon sets on time, as if there are no four seasons. Night and day each occupy half of the day and never change.

A breeze blew and toppled a long grass, and the tip of the grass touched the edge of a board and bent gently.

Shen Lianxing bent down and tapped the surface of the wooden board twice with his knuckles.

This thing has been here for several months, because it is too large and has many parts, it is not easy to move around, so all the parts that will be produced later can only be moved here to assemble.

After his accumulated assembly, it is now quite large-scale. From a distance, it looks like a flying bird with a head and a tail, and plump wings.

A bird's body is optimal for flight, it's not impossible to change, but it's not necessary.

Only by making something can you truly understand why it is called a magpie.

Yan Jinping had just finished a not-so-long nap, and was stripped from the chaotic dream. For a moment or two, he hardly knew what day it was.

He opened his eyes, stared at the blue sky for a while, then gathered the loose skirt of his clothes twice, stood up and walked to Shen Lianxing's side, looked down at the vacant part of the magpie's body, and asked him: " How about it?"

There was still a little stickiness in the voice, as if he hadn't woken up.

"It's okay." Shen Lianxing tucked away his long hair for him, found a cloak and put it on his shoulders, and introduced: "In short, I have made some changes on the basis of Cheng Ruxiu...but his skills at that time were no longer It is complete, Cheng Ruxiu is careful and thoughtful, there are not many things that need to be changed, only the most fundamental problems remain unresolved."

"Hmm." Boss Yan's recent state is too lazy, and he didn't turn his mind at all. What Shen Lianxing said, he asked along, "What's the fundamental problem?"

"Power." Shen Lianxing said, "The last picture he drew, the core... It doesn't work. It can move, but it's not enough."

Yan Jinping reacted for a moment before asking, "Not enough?"

"It's a good idea." Shen Lianxing said, "Water power really can't take it to the sky, and it's impossible to fly such a big object directly with human power alone, so Cheng Ruxiu used another kind of power... It's still in the trial stage, One that hasn't been widely used by us."

Yan Jinping finally came to his senses at this time, and asked curiously, "What is it?"

"It's fire."

Shen Lianxing took out the last huge blueprint of the volume, spread it out and hung it on half of the wing of the magpie, pointed to one of them and said, "Add fuel here, and after it is lit, it can be driven by heat... In short, roughly That’s the way it works.”

He didn't explain it in detail. It's not teaching now, so it's useless to explain the principles. It's enough to give Yan Jinping a general idea.

Yan Jinping: "...meaning, if the core is ignited, the magpie will be able to fly?"

"Almost." Shen Lianxing said, "After it is activated, it can drive the wings of the magpie, plus some other parts. I made a model and it can indeed fly."

But that's only a small-scale, unloaded flight, and the model can't drive it, and there's no way to determine what it will be like to experience a real person on it.

"He also wrote down the fuel ratio, using whale blubber and several kinds of mixed oils, which are really resistant to burning." Shen Lianxing pointed to a line of words in the corner to Yan Jinping, "It's amazing, but it's not enough. "

It has not reached the level of adapting to the magpie.

Shen Lianxing sighed, and said again: "The problem is, to ensure that the magpie can go to the sky, it must be as light as possible within a certain range, so the fuel cannot be carried too much. But it also needs a large amount of constantly burning fuel. The flame...the fuel is not enough, of course it will stop halfway."

He spoke succinctly, but Yan Jinping understood: "So this is why Cheng Ruxiu failed."

Cheng Ruxiu's design works in theory, and it does work in practice.It's just not enough, the expected effect cannot be achieved, and the time required for the first round trip has not been calculated.

He only had one chance to try it himself, which is a pity.

Shen Lianxing nodded and said, "We have to solve this problem first... Do you know what is light and resistant to burning?"

This is a big problem. Unless they find such fuel, if they act rashly, they will only repeat the mistakes of Cheng Ruxiu.

He also said: "Or, it is also possible to find an alternative power source."

Yan Jinping: "..."

Shen Lianxing noticed his unusual silence: "Why?"

"I think." Boss Yan slowly raised his eyelids to stare at him, his eyes were light and clear, with an inexplicable expression, "You seem to have forgotten something."

Shen Lianxing was taken aback, but didn't realize what he meant: "What did you forget?"

Yan Jinping raised his hand expressionlessly, snapped his fingers in front of his eyes, and a cluster of bright red flames appeared at the young man's fingertips.

He asked, "How much do you need?"

Shen Lianxing: "..."

I really forgot, there is an ancestor who played with fire in front of me, and it is not a trouble for them now.

Although he himself is considered to be out of the category of mortals now, when he returns to the field of mechanics, he is still used to thinking in the old way.

This... is also a surprise.

"It's enough, it's definitely enough." Shen Lianxing coughed, and said again, "There's one more problem. If we don't talk about fuel, just talk about the core, we can't do it now."

Yan Jinping extinguished the flames and raised his eyebrows: "Can't you do it?"

It shouldn't be, it is impossible for Shen Lianxing to be inferior to Cheng Ruxiu. There is no reason why Cheng Ruxiu can make things more than 40 years ago.

"It can be done." Shen Lianxing said, "But there is not enough time."

"Cheng Ruxiu was just making an imitation, and it took three years. We only have half a year left now, and it's too late—in any case, it's too late, even with Cheng Ruxiu's drawings."

It's not that his skills are not in place, it's because Shen Lianxing has done too much and knows these things too well, so he can tell at a glance how much effort it takes to make something.

There is no way to reduce many processes. Measurement, polishing, testing, and adjustment all take time. In addition, the content of this thing is complicated. Even if Shen Lianxing is given another year, he may not be able to guarantee that he will be able to complete it completely.

So he gave up this part of the attempt from the beginning, and only did everything outside the core, leaving a gap in the middle.

Yan Jinping: "Then what are you going to do?"

If there was really nothing to do, Shen Lianxing wouldn't wait until now.He must have had an idea in his heart, and now that he speaks it out, it means that the other tasks have been basically completed, and only the most difficult part is left, which should be solved.

"Ever since I understood this picture, I have been thinking about it." Shen Lianxing said, "How to solve the power problem, is there any way to bypass the one-year time limit, and...how did Cheng Ruxiu do it?"

For many years, so many orthodox organists have searched and explored day and night, thought hard, and pursued desperately, but they failed to solve this most fundamental problem.

There is no shortage of geniuses in the world. How can he, Cheng Ruxiu, make a magpie capable of ascending to the sky within ten years?

Where is he more than others?

Then Shen Lianxing thought of an answer.

Shen Lianxing asked slowly and word by word: "You said, under what circumstances can a person quickly complete a thing that he couldn't do before?"

"A miracle." Yan Jinping replied immediately, "Heaven manifested...or, he has seen similar scenes."

It is always easier to borrow than to create. If Cheng Ruxiu has seen it before, or got inspiration from something else, and then transforms it, it is really possible to create a dynamic core within three years.

Yan Jinping is very smart, just a little reminder, a huge net of countless possibilities will be woven in his mind, all the details that have been ignored before are all strung together, leading to a seemingly bizarre, but in fact very possible s answer.

Notes, magpies, power, organs.

He vaguely understood what Shen Lianxing wanted to say next.

"Actually, we know of a mechanism that can operate for a long time without manpower maintenance." Shen Lianxing said softly.

"It's been working there for almost 1000 years, because the creator has been deified, so almost no one ever thinks it's unusual."

When something exists in people's daily life for a long time, people tend to ignore it, no matter how great and worth exploring it is.

Just as hardly anyone cares how the stars in the sky work.

Yan Jinping understood him best, and said softly, "So you want to..."

"Maybe." Shen Lianxing said, "We have to go to Zhaixing Tower again."

The author says:

Shen Lianxing: He is clingy to me, he is embarrassed to say, I understand.

Yan Jinping: I am a lighter.

Shen Zhi: Hey, I'm here again, I don't think I did.
