Traveling back to ancient times from the Western Han Dynasty
Chapter 69: Mu Lao
"Wheels and wheels..."
The sound of a wooden wheel turning came from afar, attracting the attention of Yan Fang and Shi Yuan.
In the blink of an eye, a green light appeared, revealing an old man sitting in a wooden wheelchair.
The old man was wearing brown cloth, his hair was gray, and there were scars in the wrinkles on his face. He looked very experienced and the breath of time was overwhelming.
"Mechanism technique!"
When Yan Fang saw it, his pupils shrank. The speed of this wooden wheelchair, which could reach a speed of one thousand meters in an instant, was enough to prove that the person in it was unusual.
What's more, from ancient times to the future, from low-level martial arts to high-energy, there are the martial arts Wuqing, Wei Wuya, Ouyang Mingri, the Hawking of the material world, Yagami Hayate on the magic side, Professor X on the technological and super-power side, and so on.
Even if those in wheelchairs are not the best in the world, they are still intelligent players and must be treated with caution.
Moreover, Yan Fang also saw some familiar traces in this wooden wheelchair, which was somewhat similar to the mechanical technology he saw in Shuxi.
Although the wheelchair of this weathered old man has traces of magic, its core is actually quite sophisticated mechanical techniques, which are several times more profound than those practiced by Shuxi. The magic only plays an auxiliary and accelerating role.
This was unusual. Although the status of the human race in this era was low, most tribes were good at borrowing the power of ghosts and gods. The buildings that Yan Fang had seen in the market and Youxiong City before were all built with the help of witchcraft. He did not master much technology himself, let alone summarize and pass it on.
This is as bizarre as a modern person seeing a robot in ancient times.
"Hmm? My dear friend, do you recognize my method of using the wooden cart?"
The old man originally wanted to go forward to find Xuan, but when he heard Yan Fang's question, he was stunned and stopped. He didn't know what mechanical engineering was, but he could tell that Yan Fang could understand the core technology of his wooden cart.
"I've seen something similar at a friend's place. Do you want it, old man?"
Yan Fang gave a cryptic reply, and took Shi Yuan to block Xuan.
The old man did not seem to have much ill intention, and his tone was gentle. Although he did not show off his abilities, it was obvious at first glance that he was an expert. This aura made Yan Fang feel familiar, as he seemed very much like the great wizard Zhu Ke.
However, Xuan’s condition is low now, so it is better to be cautious.
Just as the two sides were about to confront each other, Xuan raised his head, looked at the old man, and called out: "Mu Lao! Yu Ling is dead."
His voice was filled with sorrow, but there was hope in his eyes as he looked at the old man, hoping that the old man could bring him a miracle.
It turned out that he knew this old man, and this old man was the Mu Lao he had met before.
"I am late. Life and death are determined by fate. Please accept my condolences."
There was compassion in Mu Lao's eyes. He wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it. In the end, he just sighed.
A few hours ago, he felt very uneasy.
He had known all kinds of creatures in his life, but Xuan was the only one who was familiar and friendly to the human race. So after thinking for a moment, he quickly went to find Xuan, but he didn't expect that it was too late.
They are just the lowest level of the prehistoric world. Even though the human race has connections with a small part of the witch clan, and there are half-bloods serving in the underworld, they are still powerless in the face of life and death.
Life and death are almost a permanent farewell.
"..."
Xuan didn't say anything when he heard this, hope in his eyes was shattered, and he continued to hold Yu Ling and stay on the cliff.
People close to him always encounter misfortunes, and many choose to stay away from him. Although there have been deaths during this period and he has been sad, he never expected that Yu Ling would leave him.
Will Meng Po's soup be cold? Will the netherworld be cold? When will you reincarnate and where will you go?
The prehistoric world is so vast, can he find Yu Ling? Why should he live? Why can't he protect Yu Ling? How can he not even protect the people around him? How can anyone talk about him and belittle him...
Suddenly, Xuan remembered Yan Fang's question about reincarnation...
......
"Hey.....Let him calm down."
Mu Lao sighed, pushed the wheelchair aside, and then looked at Yan Fang again.
"When I was traveling more than 30 years ago, I learned this craft from a man named Jie. Have you ever seen him?"
Many years ago, he saw that this skill did not require the use of witchcraft, and only required learning the rules, careful assembly, and collecting materials. He was so excited that he spent a lot of money to learn this skill from the man named Jie.
That person was the most talented person he had ever seen. Unfortunately, he had no talent for cultivation, but he studied the laws of the world and even gave names to various laws. Unfortunately...
"No, that friend of mine is not the person you mentioned. I don't know who my friend's master is."
Yan Fang always speaks the truth, but ignores the time difference and place between them.
Having had the precedent of Yu Chang, Yan Fang felt familiar with these guys who seemed to be big bosses.
The solution that Mu Lao mentioned might be one of the sources of Mohist mechanical engineering, or even Mozi’s previous life.
"I think there is some connection. I have never seen anything like it anywhere else."
"That person has great talent. If the vitality of heaven and earth were restored to normal, or if the clear and turbid could be more clearly distinguished, this technique might become the mainstream of the human race. Unfortunately, it's the wrong time."
Mu Lao felt quite sad when he recalled his old friend.
When he first discovered this mechanical technology, he thought it could open up a unique path for the human race. He was extremely excited at that time, feeling that after years of traveling and exploring, he had finally found a great talent.
Later, I discovered to my disappointment that although the "laws" summarized by that person would generally not change due to changes in the environment, there were actually not many suitable materials and they were difficult to replicate. This was because the primitive world was filled with abundant vitality and the material properties of the environments in different places were different. Even things that looked exactly the same might have subtly different properties.
That person once made a comparison. A line of Green Wood Qi and a line of Kan Water Qi, according to their quantity and proportion, can form tens of millions of Qi. What's more, there are so many different Qi in the ancient world?
This subtle difference will not be a problem in the hands of a smelter. Once the earth fire is burned, it can also add diversity to weapons and equipment. However, it is a very difficult problem to solve for mechanical technology that requires precision.
Therefore, after his friend died at the hands of a ferocious beast, he realized that he did not have the talent in this area, and the same was true for several of his friend's disciples, so they also gave up this path.
Unexpectedly, many years later, when I returned to Youxiong, my foundation was destroyed and I still had to rely on this "law" to survive.
“It’s really an avenue.”
Yan Fang thought of the brilliant technological civilization in his previous life. Even if it had not yet reached its peak and still had many problems, it was better than the other races that were being bullied by hundreds of races now.
Sometimes Yan Fang would wonder, suppose there was suddenly no spiritual energy in the ancient world, and those dragons, phoenixes, unicorns and witches were just bigger in body but had no extraordinary powers, would it be possible for the human race to rise?
Perhaps one day Yunbu will be able to take him to other similar worlds. Yan Fang also has a little expectation in his heart.
After all, although the Cloud Steps were given by the native Shuxi, it should be limited to the local world even if he traveled through time. However, the Jade Book is very advanced at first glance, and it can take him from the modern Blue Star to the prehistoric world. It is also possible to upgrade the Cloud Steps of the native saint to the point where he can travel through infinite worlds.
Moreover, there is a huge gap between the Western Han Dynasty and Youxiong here. You can tell at a glance that Youxiong's is the Honghuang style that has become popular in modern times. In the Western Han Dynasty, the main belief is Haotian God, and there is no theory of Hou Tu's reincarnation.
The belief in Haotian is in line with the ancient beliefs. Haotian is the supreme being, while the Jade Emperor only appeared in the Song Dynasty and was suppressed under the Three Pure Ones of Taoism. Yan Fang did not find anything wrong.
If the two are from the same world at different times, what kind of things would have to happen to cause the Jade Emperor to become Haotian and dominate the human race's beliefs?
