Chapter 720: The Mo Family
Early the next morning, Gao Yuan took Shui Xinyue and Chunyu Zhongxiu, and set off from the camp with Zhai Jin and others, and advanced to the village of the Mo family's younger brothers, with only a hundred soldiers.
Because this time it was not a battle, Shui Xinyue and Chun Yu Zhongxiu did not wear armor, they were still wearing women's clothes in long skirts, and both women were people with a captivating posture, although Shui Xinyue was still wearing a veil, she still had an outstanding demeanor and looked very eye-catching.
Zhai Jin and Chunyu Zhongxiu have known each other a few times, and they also know that Chunyu's father and daughter have joined Daijun, so he is not surprised that Chunyu Zhongxiu came to the grassland with the plateau, but he doesn't know Shui Xinyue, but since Shui Xinyue can accompany the plateau, and it seems that he is more valued by the plateau than Chunyu Zhongxiu, his identity is naturally different, so he didn't ask much.
A group of people and horses walked in the valley, Zhai Jin and other Mo family disciples led the way in front, while Shui Xinyue, Chun Yu Zhongxiu and the plateau walked side by side, walking in the middle of the team, while walking, looking at the mountain scenery on both sides, Shui Xinyue said: "I didn't expect the Mo family brothers to hide here." ”
Gao Yuan smiled: "It's time to tell me the truth now, there's no point in hiding it anymore, how did Han Teng's chariots come from." ”
Shui Xinyue sighed softly and said: "Among the ten generals, there is a person named Shi Wugong, who is actually the younger descendant of Master Lu Banlu, who was accepted as a subordinate by Han Teng, and Lu Ban left a book called [Lu Gong Technique], and those chariots were made according to the drawings included in this book. But Shi Wugong said that after Master Lu compiled the [Lu Gong Organ Technique], the younger brothers once praised the skills of the organs recorded in this book must be unparalleled in the world, but Master Lu said that although the records in this book are what he has learned in his life, they are still inferior to Mozi, because he has written to Mozi to talk about these organs, Mozi will definitely be able to design better mechanisms, and if the disciples have the opportunity, they should go to the Mo family to learn the Mo family's mechanism skills. ”
Gao Yuan said: "That's why you want to find the mechanism technology left by Mo Xiao. ”
Shui Xinyue nodded, and said: "Yes, because after these chariot systems were made and tested, they were indeed not bad, so we looked around for the Mo family's younger brothers, hoping to find the mechanism left by the Mo family, and then after several years of searching, we found a few clues, knowing that they lived in seclusion outside the Saiwai, but because of the continuous war, they did not invest a lot of energy to find it, but they were found by you effortlessly, and they were willing to give you the mechanism left by Mozi, I see that your administration in Daijun does not have any preference for the disciples of the Mo family. ”
Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Does this mean that my character is better than Han Teng." ”
Shui Xinyue was stunned, but couldn't help but smile and said, "What you said is really interesting." ”
Gao Yuan said: "Han Teng has already obtained the mechanism technique left by Lu Ban, if Mozi's mechanism technique falls into his hands again, wouldn't it be too boring?" It's interesting to have a balance of power. ”
Shui Xinyue said: "But I see that the power of these chariots does not seem to be as great as I imagined, in the last battle of the Qin Dynasty, Han Teng dispatched hundreds of chariots, wasn't it also defeated by you, it can be seen that the role of these chariots is not so great." ”
Gao Yuan shook his head and said: "No, Han Teng's last defeat was not because of his defeat in the battle of the Qin Dynasty, on the whole, the two sides were still evenly matched, and we captured Jijing on the other line and defeated the Qin army of the Yan State, which was the reason for the complete defeat of the Qin army." In fact, Han Teng's chariot caused us considerable losses at the beginning, but unfortunately Han Teng's use of the chariot was ineffective, so he could not fully exert the power of the chariot, otherwise the outcome of this battle is not yet known. ”
Shui Xinyue was stunned for a moment and said, "Then what is the correct way to use the chariot?" ”
Gao Yuan pretended to smile mysteriously and said: "If you don't visit Han Teng after you go back, just say that I said that the chariot is an extremely powerful weapon, but it's a pity that he can't use it, let him think more about how to use the chariot, otherwise after I get the Mo family's trick, he will have to suffer a lot, but how to use the chariot, I can't sue you." ”
Shui Xinyue was stunned for a moment, when she refused to reveal the secret of the Jiuli clan to the plateau before, she said the same, and now it is used by the plateau to return it to herself, so she can't help but be a little annoyed, she turned her head to look straight ahead, ignored the plateau, and deliberately controlled the war horse, slowed down, and fell behind.
Shui Xinyue's actions, Gao Yuan naturally looked at them, but he just smiled and ignored Shui Xinyue. And at this time, Chun Yu Zhongxiu, who had not spoken just now, suddenly said softly: "Is Wu Anjun deliberately angry with her?"
Gao Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Isn't it also fun to be angry with her occasionally?" "Actually, Gao Yuan doesn't really want to be angry with Shui Xinyue, the main thing is to hit Han Teng's image in Shui Xinyue's heart, because Gao Yuan knows that Han Teng's position in Shui Xinyue's heart is very firm, and it can't be shaken in a few words, so he can only pass through Guò shallow and imperceptible, and come slowly.
Chunyu Zhongxiu was silent for a while before he said, "Does Wu Anjun like water girls?" ”
Gao Yuan was stunned, and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and said, "Why do you ask that." ”
Chun Yu Zhongxiu said: "Since Wu Anjun and Miss Shui cooperated, I think Wu Anjun seems to be very concerned about Miss Shui's affairs. Because Zhong Xiu is also a daughter, when he traveled the world with his father in the past, he encountered such a thing, and many male children did not hesitate to refute Zhong Xiu's ideas when they sat down with Zhong Xiu in order to leave an impression on them, trying to provoke Zhong Xiu, and at the same time to show their knowledge. ”
Gao Yuan smiled bitterly, seriously thinking about the things between himself and Shui Xinyue during this time, it was indeed easy to misunderstand, thinking of this, his heart couldn't help but move, and said: "I remember that when I met Miss Chunyu in Handan, Miss once persuaded me to join the Qin State with Ling Zun, and I seemed to be very angry with Miss Chunyu at that time. ”
Chun Yu Zhong Xiu's face suddenly flushed, and said: "At that time, Zhong Xiu was shallow and talked nonsense, and now I am really ashamed to think about it, I can't imagine that after so many years, Wu Anjun actually remembers." ”
Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Could it be that Miss Chunyu thought at that time that I was close to Miss?" ”
Chunyu Zhongxiu lowered his head and was silent for a while before he said, "These two things don't seem to be confused." Zhong Xiu talked to Wu Anjun back then, and he was still talking about the world, but today Wu Anjun seems to be deliberately angry with Miss Shui. ”
Gao Yuan nodded, thought about it for a while, and finally decided to tell Shui Xinyue about this matter, so he said: "Shui Xinyue is Yinghong's biological sister. ”
When Chunyu Zhongxiu heard this, he was also taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "What? ”
Gao Yuan said: "Is it unexpected? ”
Chun Yu Zhongxiu nodded and said, "Yes, what's going on?" ”
Gao Yuan then told Chun Yu Zhongxiu about the life experiences of Shui Xinyue and Li Yinghong. After listening, Chun Yu Zhongxiu was silent for a long time, he didn't expect that there was such a complicated relationship here, and at the same time, he could understand Gao Yuan's attitude towards Shui Xinyue, and he seemed to be relieved, but he seemed to be a little disappointed.
After a long while, Chun Yu Zhong Xiucai said: "This is Madame's secret, why should Wu Anjun sue me." ”
Gao Yuan was also stunned for a moment, and then he remembered, why did he tell Chun Yu Zhongxiu this secret? Even if Shui Xinyue misunderstood, it didn't matter if it was a big deal, and after thinking about it, he said: "I don't know why, maybe I don't want you to misunderstand." ”
Chun Yu Zhongxiu was stunned for a moment, lowered his head for a while, and then said, "Thank you Wu Anjun." ”
At this moment, Zhai Jin, who only heard the lead in front, turned around and said loudly: "Wu Anjun, the front is here." ”
Gao Yuan listened and said to Chunyu Zhongxiu: "Let's go, let's go up and take a look." ”
After finishing speaking, the toe tapped the belly of the red dragon's horse, the red dragon sped up its four hooves and trotted forward, while Chunyu Zhongxiu also urged the horse to follow behind the plateau and run forward together.
After a while, Gao Yuan came to the front of the queue, looked in the direction of Zhai Jin's finger, and saw that between a field a few miles away, there were indeed many houses, and the smoke was curling, and it was like a village.
The people walked forward for another two or three miles, and had entered the avenue of the field, and in the fields on the left and right, most of the fields had been planted with seedlings, and many people were cultivating, and the plateau also found that there were several waterwheels in the fields, and there were several people operating on each waterwheel, although they were far away, and the structure of these waterwheels could not be seen clearly, but it could be seen that water was constantly pumping water to the fields.
Ancient China's agricultural technology has long been leading the world, and agricultural tools have been in the forefront of the world for a long time, and there have been many exquisite and practical large-scale semi-mechanical appliances, which are irrigation tools of waterwheels, which are not only varied, but also exquisitely designed and easy to operate. However, China's agricultural technology in this era was still in the development stage, and agricultural tools were limited to simple tools such as iron hoes, plows, pickaxes, sickles, etc., but there were no large-scale agricultural tools.
The plateau estimates that the field on both sides of the avenue is about six or seven hundred acres, and there are more than ten waterwheels in the field, indicating that the efficiency of this waterwheel is not bad, but I don't know how much it costs.
And since the Mo family disciples have built a waterwheel, they must have also made other agricultural tools, so if they can really bring this group of Mo family disciples back to Daijun, even if they don't need to make chariots for themselves, as long as they can make more than a batch of large agricultural tools, it is enough.
