Chapter 882 Chapter 882: The Mohist who can practice (Part 2) [Asking for monthly votes]
“You actually know each other?”
This was beyond Lio Jia’s expectations.
He has known Zhou Kou for a long time, and he knows her early life from what she occasionally revealed. She is a wandering Mohist who has no fixed abode all year round and sleeps in the open air. She relies on her crafts to help people in need make utensils in exchange for meager living expenses. She is struggling on the poverty line and has no food to eat. If the troubled times hadn't led to chaotic public security and loose management in various places, an orphan like her with no land, no house, and no household registration would basically have to make a living in the deep mountains and forests, accompanied by wild beasts and poisonous insects.
Looking back at Yun Ce?
Acquire profound cultivation at a young age.
That murderous aura can definitely be accumulated through many battles.
No matter how you look at it, the two of them don’t seem to have any intersection.
Yun Ceyang smiled as clean as snow: "Well, Jiujiu is a close friend I met not long ago when I traveled down the mountain. It's just that she was ordered by the master to find a holy object, and we separated in the middle. I didn't expect to go around in circles. Meet me here."
Lio Jia looked strange: "Looking for a holy object?"
Yun Ce didn’t have Bei Jiu’s permission, so it was inconvenient to reveal the name of his master’s sacred object, so he could only choose to deal with it silently. But he didn't expect that Liao Jia would ask: "Are you talking about 'Tiangong creates things'?"
“How do you know, sir?”
Liao Jia smiled mysteriously.
How did he know?
Lin Lingde and Qi Yuanliang used that set of "Tiangong Kaiwu" to completely retain Bei Jiu. At first, they took a fancy to Bei Jiu's talent - she only had a notice and a simple need. The agricultural tools urgently needed by the government were produced in one night.
Based on Beiju's work, Husao mass-produced doffing machines that could be put into use. Coupled with Beiju's improvements, the doffing machines were replaced for several generations, improving efficiency while greatly reducing manpower input. She also modified several farm tools based on "Tiangong Kaiwu", and even picky people like Qi Yuanliang regarded her as their treasure.
Yun Ce understood it from his heart and realized it instantly.
Ask: "Could it be that Jiujiu has found the holy object?"
As he was speaking, Bei Jiu, who was at the center of the topic, had already approached and patted Yun Ce on the shoulder: "Yun Yuanmou, what did you just say?"
Yun Ce smiled and said: "I feel the fate..."
He swallowed the rest of the words hard.
Just now, Bei Jiu was sitting on the carriage, with only his head exposed. Now when he walked up to him, he found that his appearance had not changed much, but his height was much higher than he remembered. It was difficult to pat him on the shoulder before, but now it's just right...
Isn’t it said that a woman’s hair will stop growing after her hair grows?
Bei Jiu raised his hand and waved it in front of his eyes: "How long have we not seen each other, and you don't recognize me anymore? Or did you hurt your eyes in the battle?"
Yun Ce spoke honestly: "You have grown a lot taller."
As he spoke, his eyes fell on the large wooden box Bei Jiu was carrying.
In my memory, this big wooden box is a head taller than Beijiu. During the time they were traveling together, he had been helping her share the weight out of courtesy. At that time, Yun Ce still thought that Bei Jiu was quite pitiful because he was weighed down by this wooden box and could not grow taller. The two walked together, and a dim-sighted old woman even thought that he was carrying an old piece of clothing. When he got closer, he realized that the old piece of clothing was a person.
The Beijiu in front of me is higher than the big wooden box.
She grew up quite quickly.
Beijiu scratched his bunted head and said with familiarity: "It is indeed a lot taller. The food in the government office is so good that I can't even put on the clothes you bought for me..."
Before joining the government to get a salary, Beijiu's food depended entirely on luck. If he could get business, he would eat enough. If he couldn't get business, he would drink more water and starve. He relied on hunting to increase his oil and water. I am always hungry and full, and I owe my life to God.
It’s different now—
The government canteen would always send someone to bring her meals and vegetables, and every time there would be a big bowl full of meat, and the wheat rice would always be pressed again and again. One bowl could weigh as much as three other bowls. Occasionally I go to the cafeteria to eat, and the cook's hands shake when serving food for others. Only two or three pieces of meat are left after a spoonful. But when I see her, her hands stop shaking immediately and I feel energetic. It's hard not to grow taller if you feed them like this.
“I took care of the money you borrowed before, and I will pay you back later.”
Before Beijiu and Yun Ce separated, he borrowed some money from him. I thought I had no chance to pay it back, but I didn't expect that luck would turn out for me. I got a job in a government office taking care of food and housing, and I was able to save a lot of money for a private house every month. She is definitely richer than Yun Ce now!
Yun Ce nodded: "Well, this is not urgent."
He brought Lio Jia and his party to the camp where he was stationed and asked them to rest here first. He would personally **** them to see their lord tomorrow. This camp seems simple, but the interior of the camp is very orderly, and even Liao Jia can't fault it.
“Can Jiu Jiu practice cultivation?”
Looking at Bei Jiu who was discussing something with someone in the distance, Yun Ce suddenly asked Liao Jia on the side. As more and more women who could practice appeared, Yun Ce also knew that this matter had something to do with his lord. The fact that Bei Jiu had smoked so much was obviously not something he could achieve by improving his food and nutritional conditions. After thinking about it, it should be the energy of heaven and earth that nourishes the muscles and bones, allowing her to grow a second time. Many female battalion soldiers can also attest to this.
Liao Jia asked, "Can't the general notice it?"
Yun Ce said: "The smell on Jiujiu's body is very strange."
What’s so strange about it?
The aura emanating from Bei Jiu's body was neither literary nor martial. Yun Ce only felt that the aura was peaceful, fresh and natural. But it was too small and weak for him to draw conclusions. The only thing that is certain is that Bei Jiu can practice.
Liao Jia did not hide anything: "It is indeed possible to practice, but it is slightly different from your understanding. Qi Yuanliang and I have also studied this for a while, but we have not come to an accurate conclusion. It just so happens that the master is in urgent need of mature craftsmen. Then bring her out."
There is one more thing that Lio Jia did not say.
Because of the special nature of Beijiu, Qi Yuanliang even went to the branch of the Society of Gods in the Northwest Continent, trying to find the answer from the vast library of the Society of Gods, but the result was not satisfactory. Even the Council of Gods has no answer for Beijiu's situation.
Qi Yuanliang has a bold guess.
The situation in Beijiu may be due to another force independent of the Bunshin-Budou system. However, it is not as unpredictable as Wen Xin, nor as powerful and destructive as Wu Gu. It is another force that is more biased toward rules, order, and creation.
This has never happened before!
Afraid that the gods would take notice, Qi Shan also "abused power for personal gain" and blocked and intercepted all information related to Bei Jiu.
Yun Ce worried: "Is it harmful to her?"
The corner of Lio Jia's mouth twitched slightly: "If you had seen her sawing wild boar alive with a saw, you wouldn't ask this question..."
The security in Sibao County is good, but bandits still appear in some deep mountains and old forests. They are surviving under the pressure of government agencies to clear them out one after another. Beijiu heard that there was a village with special buildings from a hundred years ago, so he went to get Buddhist scriptures, but met bandits on the way.
And the wild boar that fell into a bandit trap and became furious.
The entourage is a hundred paces away.
They didn't have time to save the pig from Beiju.
Yunce: "...ah?"
Some people have also been arranged over Beijiu, and they are walking this way carrying the heavy wooden box. Liao Jia pretended to cough lightly, found a lame excuse to leave, and left a hasty sentence: "...There are still some details, you can understand them later."
Bei Jiu is a very special person.
Yun Ce's nonsense words left Yun Ce confused, but he soon picked up his mood and went to catch up with his close friends. He hunted a few pheasants today and learned the special roast chicken skill from his junior brother Xian Yujian. Dharma door, just show off.
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the fragrance spreads far and wide.
Yun Ce’s ears were very good and he could vaguely hear the whispers of some soldiers. Bei Jiu took a sip and was about to praise him when he turned around and caught a glimpse of a red cloud floating from his friend's cheeks to his ears. He asked strangely: "Isn't it said that brave warriors are immune to cold and heat?"
Yun Ce coughed: "Recently, cold air has entered the body..." Beijiu said: "Cold air has entered the body? Are you having a fever?"
This is really strange.
She remembered that Yun Ce said that he could use his martial energy to make ice all year round. If he didn't want to fight any day, he would make ice for wealthy families. He could also sell ice water in the dog days of summer, and his custodial business was booming. Yun Ce did do this before.
Earn a living by making ice.
At one time, Bei Jiu was both envious and jealous.
Yun Ce was vague: "It'll be fine in two days."
Bei Jiu didn't say much after hearing this.
I have not had many contacts with warriors and scribes before, and my understanding of them is limited, but after joining the official office, I will be able to observe the magical scribes and warriors at close range. She knew that the gap between these people and ordinary people was wider than that between dogs and humans. If Yun Ce says it's okay, then it's definitely okay. Unknowingly, Beijiu killed three plump pheasants by himself, spitting out the chicken bones all over the floor...
She felt a little embarrassed.
“Yuanmou, let me perform one for you.”
As compensation for one person having three pheasants to himself.
Yun Ce was confused, but he still followed Bei Jiu’s strength and was led to a hiding place by her. For a moment, my heart beat like a drum.
“What are you looking at?”
Bei Jiu said mysteriously: "Don't make any noise."
"good!"
“Don’t be surprised by anything you see.”
Yun Ce didn’t know why: “Okay!”
“Stay tight-lipped!”
Bei Jiu raised his hand and put it on the tree trunk beside him.
Just when Yun Ce was confused, a ball of dark green light came out of her palm. As soon as the light hit the ground, it turned into a strange wooden cart. It was said to be a car, but it looked very strange. The wheels were flat, and something like "arms" extended from the body. Yun Ce had never seen anything like this before. Just as he was about to ask what this thing was, Beijiu jumped in and motioned for him to come in too.
Yun Ce: “…”
His body is much larger than Bei Jiu.
The only "window" into the car body is too small.
It was too crowded for Bei Jiu to sit alone, let alone letting him in. Yun Ce could only carefully step on this weird wooden car, stand next to the car, look inside through the "car window", and said gently: "I just stand here and take a look."
Bei Jiu also realized this and blushed with embarrassment.
He said softly: "I haven't been practicing for long, so I can only make it this big. After I practice for a year or two, I can change it."
Yunce responded: "Yeah."
Bei Jiu’s mood became high again.
Pointing to something similar to a wrench in the carriage, he said: "The drawings of this thing were given to me by the Lord Prayer Book. According to him, those drawings are all paintings by my lord. It's just that my lord's paintings are too complicated and the things are really profound. I based them on It took me more than a month to study the text description next to the drawing to figure out the general structure. The day I figured it out, I had a very strange dream."
"Dream?"
"Well, I saw it in my dream... I can't tell you for the time being. The Chief Prayer Book said that I have to tell the Lord. I'll tell you after I finish talking to the Lord." Bei Jiu swallowed the words that were about to reach his mouth and changed the subject abruptly, " When I woke up, there were indescribable changes in my meridians. I could turn the drawings I knew in my mind into reality, like this, this is very fun."
Speaking, he pushed the two "wooden wrenches" forward at the same time.
The wooden cart at Yun Ce's feet moved forward.
“This, this is?”
Even a chariot transformed by a courageous warrior would need a horse. However, the wooden chariot transformed by Beijiu did not have a horse, and it did not consume anything similar to martial energy at the moment it moved forward.
How does it move?
Bei Jiu didn’t answer, and at the same time pushed the wooden wrench back.
The wooden cart fell backwards.
When the wooden wrench on the right is moved, the wooden cart turns to the left.
When the wooden wrench on the left is moved, the wooden cart turns to the right.
Bei Jiu also relied on a wooden wrench to control the big wooden arm extending from the car body, swinging it flexibly in the air: "According to the master's drawings, this thing is called an 'excavator'!"
Yun Ce was stunned for a long time: "It's amazing!"
Bei Jiu blushed slightly: "I'm not great, but my master is. Even the giants of the Mohist family don't have the strength like her. Those drawings and structures are really fascinating!"
Not only that, the Lord also knows how to keep secrets.
Each drawing uses an excellent secret method.
Even if an expert sees it, he will not be able to decipher the real content from the messy drawings and patterns without a deep foundation! Bei Jiu couldn't understand it at first, and even had doubts about the content, but he quickly gave up the bold idea - this is a treasure drawn by the overlord of one side!
Outsiders don’t understand because the person is incompetent!
Master, every stroke of this stroke must have a profound meaning!
Beijiu suppressed his irritability, studied it carefully, and consulted a large number of Mohist-related documents provided by the Qi Zhubu. After dismantling, reorganizing, and working backwards, he finally solved the puzzle successfully. It's just that the master's level is too high, she can only understand one-tenth of it, and many structures can only be reshaped in her own way. When she woke up, she was surprised to find that she could make it!
Others rely on carriages and horses to get to work.
She is different, she drives an excavator!
Later, Qi Zhubu said that she was too high-profile, so Beijiu tried to find a way to replace the casing of the excavator. In Xiaocheng, everyone knew that the strange carriage with big arms was her car!
Bei Jiu was happy, and Yun Ce was also happy for her.
Only Shen Tang, who received the letter two days later, was not happy. He almost choked on the tea and asked, "What is it?"
“Excavator???”
Letters of prayers for good deeds arrived.
Yunce escorted Liao Jia's troops to arrive.
Shen Tang also saw the "excavator" mentioned in the letter of prayer. Not to mention the internal structure, the appearance looked similar. The person who made the "excavator" was the strange-looking girl in front of him. The maker of cotton doffing machines is a poet named Beijiu.
“Get one and let me see!”
Fifteen minutes later—
A strange "chariot" was running wildly in the martial arts training ground.
From time to time, I can still hear my master's joyful cry.
