Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism

Ying Wei remained expressionless. With one hand behind his back, he stood at the top of a stone step and watched the people at his feet busy.

Some of these people are disciples of Gongshujia, and some are people sent by the Qin State to help.

They are all working here day and night to build machine beasts and build war machines for Qin.

Gongshu Qiu glanced at Ying Wei secretly. Seeing Ying Wei's expressionless face, he knew that what he just explained could not satisfy the Chang'an Lord.

He hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and decided to tell some more core secrets related to the mechanism technique.

"In that ancient ruins, what the ancestors and Mozi found were a strange ore and a set of incomplete runes."

"Ancestor and Mozi each took part of the ore and recorded the set of runes to go back and study."

"Both of them have amazing talents in mechanism arts. They are conducting various combination experiments on the set of incomplete runes and roughly understand the functions of all the runes."

"And those runes are the basis for the machine beast to have a certain degree of intelligence and to make many fine movements~"

"After more than two hundred years of research by my father-in-law, most of the combined effects of those runes have been roughly studied."

"I think the same is true for the Mo family."

After a pause, Gong Shuqiu continued:"……As for those strange ores, they are the core part of the machine beast."

"The mechanism beast must use those ores as its foundation in order for the mechanism beast to move."

Ying Wei listened quietly to Gong Shuqiu's explanation. Although he did not tell the specific method of making the machine beast, he did explain the principle. The key lies in the strange stones and runes.

Ying Weiruo He thought thoughtfully and asked:"Are those ores that are the core of the machine beast energy?"

"energy?"

Gongshu Qiu was stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly and said:"The word"junshang" is used well. Yes, that kind of ore is energy, giving power to the machine beast."

"All machine beasts need strange ores and runes to drive them. The runes can be copied again, but the quantity of those ores is limited."

"As you can see now, the large siege machine beast that is being built requires very high requirements for the size of the strange ore it needs."

"And there are not many ores of this level in total, so I told your Majesty that we can only produce three of these machine beasts at most, no more."

"It’s not that we are unwilling, nor is it due to other material limitations, but the fundamental core is not enough."

As he spoke, Gong Shuqiu licked his dry lips and said:"……Unless, unless the Mohist government city can be found and taken down"

"At that time, not only can we obtain the research results of the Mo family for more than two hundred years, but we can even find the core ores that were taken away by Mozi."

"Only by possessing those ores can the mechanism beasts move. For example, the mechanism beasts such as the famous White Tiger Xuanwu of the Mo family contain the largest batch of core ores."

Gongshu Chou said this with a flash of greed on his face.

And after hearing his words, Ying Wei understood the two hundred years of competition between Gongshu Chou and the Mo family. I am afraid it was not only the reason why Gongshu class lost to Mozi. It was also the reason why Gongshu class lost to Mozi. There is another reason, that is, Gong Shuqiu wants to take away the core ores of the Mo family!

From Gong Shuqiu's words, we can know that the production of mechanism beasts is limited in quantity. The main reason is the amount of those ores.

Large mechanisms The ore that the beast needs is larger, and the ore needed for a small mechanism like Gongshu Qiu's own arm should be very small.

No wonder it doesn't matter whether it is the Gongshu family or the Mo family, they have a great obsession with recycling their own mechanism beast. The two families have two hundred Over the years, I have rarely lost my machine beasts.

This is not because I am afraid that the technology will be stolen by others, but because I am afraid of losing those important cores.

Although machine beasts are mysterious, they have rarely appeared on large battlefields in the history of this world. , the main reason is that there is a limit to the number of machine beasts that can be produced. The ancients were not fools. All countries have seen the terrifying capabilities of those machine beasts. It is impossible that the royal families of various countries have not thought of seizing these technologies and using the power of the whole country. Create machine beasts.

Now it seems that it’s not that countries don’t want to, but it’s useless to take them away. The few machine beasts manufactured by the core can only play a role in one battle, but cannot affect the grand strategy of the entire war..

Unless someone can study the manufacturing method of those core ores, or that kind of ore has natural veins.

When Ying Wei asked this question, Gong Shuqiu said regretfully:"Gong Shuqiu has been looking for that kind of ore for two hundred years. veins of ore"

"But the family has traveled all over the Seven Kingdoms for so many years, and even left the Seven Kingdoms to go further afield, and has never found these ores again."

"We suspect that these ores are not naturally occurring, but are man-made. Those who can create these must be those gods and gods."

Ying Wei listened to Gong Shuqiu's words and squinted his eyes slightly. Is this considered immortal technology? The ore is energy, or a battery, and the runes are similar to a computer operating system. They control the behavior of the machine beasts and can even generate some artificial intelligence. Intelligence.

Although Ying Wei has known for a long time that there are traces of the existence of immortals and gods in this world, the power of immortals and gods has never affected the mortal world in the six to seven hundred years recorded by the Qin royal family.

Therefore, Ying Wei had no control over these immortals in the past. Oh my God, I didn't pursue it too much, lest I follow in the footsteps of Brother Zheng and forget reality for the sake of illusory things.

Besides, because he traveled through the Golden Finger, he has lived longer than others. For those gods and gods, Ying Wei However, the Canglong Qisu of the Yin Yang family, the Gongshu family and the Mo family's mechanism skills made Ying Wei pay more attention to these immortals.

When Qin unified the six countries, he even replaced him After Brother Zheng becomes the second emperor of Qin, his life can have deeper pursuits.

In the plane dimension of space, Ying Wei's pursuit is to win more land and let Qin's flag spread all over the world.

In the vertical dimension of time Dimensionally, I also need to find the power of the immortal gods.

"These core ores cannot be scrapped after being used once. They have their own way of storing energy, right?"

"Are you building these things here just to store energy for the machine beasts?"

Ying Wei can easily think of these things with modern people's thinking.

But in Gong Shuqiu's eyes, Ying Wei asked the key point with just one word. He exclaimed:"Your Majesty is really as wise as a torch, and even more so. Ingenuity, you can even think of this"

"That's right, as your Majesty said, this place is not only for manufacturing machine beasts, but also for storing energy for those machine beasts."

"Our research over the years has found that the heat in the ground and the energy generated by the driving of some water sources can be stored in the core of the machine beast."

This is the use of geothermal and water energy...

Ying Wei muttered to himself, not because he is smart, but because he knows too much as a modern person. The Gongshu family uses geothermal energy, while the Mohist government city uses water energy. The continuous supply of energy is what builds the huge mechanism fortress 4.
