Chapter 18: Master and Apprentice Meet
Hearing the loud noise in the backyard, Zhao Fu immediately trembled all over, and his face turned pale with fright.
Seeing this situation, a clever guy next to him ran to the backyard, and after a while, he ran back with excitement on his face, and shouted happily to Zhao Fu: "Master, Miss is fine, that thing didn't blow up Miss!" ”
As soon as Zhao Fu heard the words of the little girl, he immediately came to his senses, stood up by himself, walked back and forth in the room excitedly, and kept muttering: "Thank you Bodhisattva, bless the little girl safe and sound, I will definitely take the little girl to the temple to offer sesame oil money in the coming day......"
Zhao Fu only cared about his own happiness, completely forgetting that there were two people next to him, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, listening to the eighteenth chapter of the master and apprentice see what he said in his mouth What Bodhisattva blesses, what is going to the temple to make a vow, etc., the two of them are black lines on their faces, in front of the two Taoist priests Bodhisattva, where does this make their Sanqing Daozun's face go?
Fortunately, the little guy next to Zhao Fu was clever, and hurriedly pulled Zhao Fu's sleeve, which made him wake up, and smiled at Yuan Tiangang's master and apprentice with an embarrassed face, and then his face changed, and he hurriedly begged: "Old fairy, help me persuade this girl Yifan, now what kind of steam engine is she going to build, at first I thought there was no danger, so I didn't object, but I didn't expect this thing to explode if it wasn't made well, you also heard the sound just now, it was even more powerful than the thunder on the dock, and this is the third time, She is a girl who deals with this kind of thing every day, which really makes me feel uneasy! ”
Looking at Zhao Fu's pleading with snot and tears, Yuan Tiangang was also soft-hearted, Zhao Fu was destined to have no children, and he only had such a daughter at the age of forty, so he was naturally a treasure, but when Yifan met him when he was nine years old, he found that she died prematurely, and she would definitely die before the age of eighteen.
And after Zhao Fu found out, he was almost in pain. He had a rough life, his parents died early, and he was able to complete the eighteenth chapter of his master-apprentice studies with the support of the clan. It's a pity that when I was young, I tried and failed. His wife, however, did not dislike her for being poor, and married him when she was a teenager, and the two supported each other for more than twenty years, until he was forty years old. The two of them had Yifan's daughter, and soon after Yifan was born, he was a high school jinshi, which can be said to be a good time, thinking that he could make his wife and daughter live a good life. But he was an official for less than two years, but his wife couldn't afford to be ill, and soon he died, it can be said that in this world, Yifan is his only relative, but his daughter died young, and Yuan Tiangang, who is regarded as a god, personally concluded that there will be no mistakes. The blow was for him. It can be said that it is extremely serious, he was only in his fifties, but now he has gray hair, and his back is slightly hunched, looking like an old man in his sixties.
Although Yifan died unmaturely, perhaps God wanted to make up for his mistakes. Yifan is already extremely smart at a young age, and his talent is definitely not under Li Chunfeng. Therefore, Yuan Tiangang also shouted that it was a pity when he saw it, such a good material and beautiful jade. But he was a lifeless person, but he happened to be fine at the time, and he took pity on Yifan, so he lived in Zhao's mansion, and usually taught Yifan, although he did not have the name of a teacher and a student, but he was a teacher and a student.
This teaching is three years, and Yifan's intelligence is also beyond his expectations, almost anything is difficult for her, astronomy, geography, arithmetic, etc., and can be learned, and can also be cited one back to three, when she is twelve years old, she already has a deep attainment in all aspects, and at that time Yuan Tiangang happened to have something, and left Dengzhou, two or three years have passed, Yuan Tiangang really wants to be a little disciple.
"Zhao Beijia, what is the steam engine in your mouth just now, which can make the little junior sister so obsessed?" Li Chunfeng asked with some curiosity, although Yuan Tiangang did not officially accept Yifan as a disciple, but when he talked about her to himself, he had already regarded Yifan as a disciple in and out of his words, so he was called a senior sister.
"Huh? This is ......" Zhao Fu was excited when he saw Yuan Tiangang just now, and it was only then that Zhao Fu discovered Li Chunfeng.
"Oh, this is the little apprentice!" Yuan Tiangang hurriedly introduced.
"Ahh It turned out to be Lord Taishi Ling, and the subordinate officials had no eyes, disrespectful and disrespectful! Zhao Fu hurriedly saluted, although Tai Shiling's rank was not as high as his, but he was a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and his identity was naturally different, so Zhao Fu did not dare to slack off, Li Chunfeng also bowed and returned the salute, and then waited for Zhao Fu to answer his question.
"This ...... This steam engine is more complicated, and it also involves His Royal Highness the King of Qi, I can't explain it clearly for a while, but the little girl is behind, let's go and see. Zhao Fu also knew nothing about the steam engine, so he naturally couldn't explain it clearly, so he shirked it.
Yuan Tiangang was also anxious to see his disciple, so under the leadership of Zhao Fuzai, the three of them went to the backyard together. said that it was a backyard, but in fact it was not Zhao Fu's inner house, but a separate yard next to the inner house. When the three of them came in, they saw a few people in armor who were carefully observing something around a pile of rags, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were both strange in their hearts, and they couldn't figure out what these people wearing Datang standard armor were doing?
"Yifan, look who's coming?" Zhao Fu shouted loudly, with a doting tone that didn't cause it.
When one of the shorter people heard this, he immediately turned around, and said with dissatisfaction on his pretty face: "Dad, didn't I say it, don't disturb ...... at this time"
Before Yifan's words were finished, he suddenly saw Yuan Tiangang looking at him with a smile, and his face immediately showed a look of surprise, and he screamed: "Master! Then the whole person wanted to pounce. It's a pity that the armor on her body is too heavy, and with her small physique, it is good enough to be able to walk, and she can't run at all.
Yuan Tiangang was afraid that his precious disciple would fall, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and said with a smile: "Yifan, why are you dressed like this, and you are not afraid of pressing you?" ”
"Hehe, master, this steam engine built by the apprentice is very unstable, it will either leak or explode, and we are all afraid, so we borrowed a few sets of armor from King Qi, even if there are fragments on the body, there is no need to worry about injury." Yifan said with a grin.
"You girl......" Yuan Tiangang pointed to Yifan, he didn't know what to say, he knew it was so dangerous, but he still had to do it, and he didn't know who this temper was like?
"Huh? This must be my brother who watches the stars, right? Zhao Yifan also noticed Li Chunfeng standing side by side with his father at this time, looking at the other party's dress and demeanor, it was easy to guess the identity of the other party with her intelligence.
Hearing this beautiful little junior sister call herself, Li Chunfeng was stunned at first, but then smiled: "Hehe, yes, I am Li Chunfeng." "As Taishi Ling, observing the sky is naturally one of his jobs, so it is not wrong to say that he is looking at the stars.
"Yifan, this steam engine looks complicated, what is it for?" Yuan Tiangang didn't care about introducing the two disciples, and he walked straight to the pile of rags to observe, but unfortunately this thing was too damaged, and some places were even completely deformed, so he couldn't see why.
"By the way, master, you came just in time, I just wanted you to help me see what the problem with this steam engine is." Yifan said and took out a thick stack of drawings from a box next to him, and handed them to Yuan Tiangang.
However, after Yuan Tiangang took it, he smiled bitterly and said: "Yifan, you are good at clever construction, this is not as good as a teacher, this steam engine is so complicated, I'm afraid that a teacher can't help much?" ”
Yuan Tiangang is telling the truth, although Li Chunfeng and Zhao Yifan are both his disciples, but in fact, he only taught the two of them the foundation of their respective development, and what achievements they can achieve in the end depends on their interests, for example, Li Chunfeng likes to calculate, so in terms of calculation, he is stronger than Yuan Tiangang, the master, and Zhao Yifan likes to build by ingenuity, so he is stronger than the two in terms of steam engines.
"Master, the so-called hundred secrets and one sparse, everything I learned is taught by you, you and senior brother will help me take a look!" Yifan took Yuan Tiangang's hand and said coquettishly.
In fact, Yifan is also very distressed, originally at the beginning, she wanted to complete the manufacture of the steam engine by herself, but later found that this is a huge project, she can only do design, as for the manufacture of various parts, there must be the assistance of talents from all sides, so in the end I had to ask Li Su for help, and the craftsmen wearing armor next to her were the top craftsmen brought by Li Su from Chang'an. However, these craftsmen can only manufacture according to Yifan's design, but they are not able to discuss the design defects with her, and today Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng came to help her with this.
Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng were also very curious about this steam engine, so the two of them no longer shirked, and began to study the drawings seriously, although they were not specialized in these, but the foundation was still there, but the more they looked at it, the tighter their brows wrinkled.
"Yifan, the structure of this steam engine is complicated, the key is the material and workmanship of this manufacturing, if these two points cannot be reached, I am afraid that this steam engine is absolutely difficult to cause." Li Chunfeng was very young and took the lead in speaking out his views.
"Well, Chunfeng is good, Yifan, your design is extremely ingenious, I think that from the teacher's point of view, there shouldn't be any major problems." Yuan Tiangang also nodded in agreement.
Hearing the words of the two, Yifan showed a disappointed look, and said with a little anger: "Master, senior brother, your opinion is the same as what His Royal Highness King Qi said, and he has already gone to the Ministry of Industry to ask for better steel, but I am not convinced, and I want to build the steam engine in advance with my own ability." ”
Hearing these angry words, Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng looked at each other and smiled, thinking that although Yifan was smart, he was still too young to know the things in this world, and some of them could not be done by one person's strength at all.
Just when Yuan Tiangang's master and apprentice met, there was a person in the palace of King Qi, who was now burying his head on the table, desperately stuffing all kinds of delicacies into his mouth, as if he was reincarnated as a starving ghost. And Li Su and Yan Bei sat opposite each other with sympathy, and at the same time worried that the other party would choke to death if they ate too quickly, so each of them held a glass of water in their hands, and as soon as the other party was choked, they immediately sent the water up, and they were very thoughtful!!
