Chapter 417: Construction Machinery Magical Instrument
? A rail transit construction site in Datang State, on one side is the track that has been assembled and laid, and the integrated track base assembled in sections, above is parallel double-track track, and the reinforced protective cover is covered on the track like a glass tunnel. Liewen.com Although in the world of science and technology, these things are already quite backward, but in this world they also appear to be full of sense of technology. Of course, people in this world don't have the concept of "sense of technology", they just find it novel.
In front of the track that has been laid, in addition to a road section where the foundation is being laid, there is a majestic mountain range ahead, which is really "a ridge when viewed horizontally and a peak when viewed sideways". According to the construction plan, the track needs to pass straight through the mountains, so what will be faced next will be a large number of tunnel works.
Standing in front of the mountain, Cheng Liangqi and the others each sacrificed their flying swords. According to the area delineated by Ye Xiao, they have already started excavating the mountain. With the flickering of sword lights, a large piece of rock was cut down, a huge cave gradually formed on the mountain, and a large amount of gravel piled up on the ground to form a hill. Then, a Nascent Soul Patriarch wiped the Qiankun Ring on his hand, and a beam of light fell on the gravel, cleaning up the accumulated gravel in an instant.
While digging the hole, they cleaned up the gravel. With the tacit understanding formed in these days, the progress of Cheng Liangqi and others digging the tunnel was not too slow. However, they had just advanced a distance of tens of meters, when suddenly a ray of light burst out in the tunnel, accompanied by the whine of a broken sword, and a flying sword was overwhelmed and scrapped.
Regarding this situation, although Cheng Liangqi and the others looked a little pity in their eyes, they did not stop their work because of this. For Cheng Liangqi and others, it is not so common for a handle of Feiye to be scrapped, but it is not a very rare thing.
On the one hand, this flying sword is not a magical weapon, but only a magical weapon, and its quality is naturally relatively average. On the other hand, the flying sword is indeed not suitable for this kind of work. Even if it is replaced by a magic-level flying sword, I am afraid it will not be much better than the broken flying sword. It is not suitable for slashing and slashing in form, and it is not suitable for head-to-head confrontation.
At this moment, a sword light flew from a distance, landed on the construction site and appeared, it was Ye Xiao who had returned from Yu Qingzong.
"Brother Ye, I don't know that Elder Ye called you back, but is there anything you want to tell me to do?" Cheng Liangqi and others were at the entrance of the cave. When they saw Ye Xiao, who had left in a hurry, come back, they immediately stepped forward and asked very curiously. . Although Ye Xiao, like them, is an elder of Yu Qingzong, but in order to distinguish them from Ye Zan, Cheng Liangqi and others have always referred to them as "Brother Ye" or "Friend of Daoist".
"Elders, don't worry. This time, Elder Ye's call to return to the sect is for the construction of rail transit." Ye Xiao said with a smile on his face.
From Ye Xiao's expression, Cheng Liangqi and others could guess that Ye Zan suddenly summoned Ye Xiao back to Yu Qingzong this time, it seems that he was not dissatisfied with the construction progress of himself and others.
However, it was precisely because of this that while they secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, they were also a little more curious about Ye Xiao's words.
"Is it for the construction of the rail transit?" Cheng Liangqi muttered, and then asked with some guesswork: "Could it be that the construction plan has changed?"
After this period of construction, Cheng Liangqi and others knew one thing, that is, they were very clear about all aspects of the project, even though Ye Zan did not come in person. Therefore, from their point of view, since Ye Zan was probably not dissatisfied with the construction progress, it is likely that they knew that they and others were having difficulty in construction, so they made some changes to the construction plan.
Ye Xiao swayed with a smile, and said: "Elders, don't guess anymore. This time, Elder Ye will summon you back to the sect because he has newly refined a few magic weapons for this project. So let me go back and bring those magic tools."
"Professional magic weapon for construction?" Cheng Liangqi and others were a little stunned when they heard this. With their common sense, they really can't think of any magic weapon that is specially used to do these clumsy things. To be honest, their Coiling Dragon Golden Seal, in terms of consolidating the foundation, can be regarded as a little bit professional, but it is only because of the power. But in fact, Panlong Gold is not as easy to use as expected to tamp the foundation.
"That's right, it's a magic weapon that's professionally used for construction." Ye Xiao didn't have the appetite to catch everyone, so he raised his hand at this point, and the Qiankun Ring released a beam of light on the ground in front of him. And as the light dissipated, huge and strange-looking "magic artifacts" appeared in front of Cheng Liangqi and others.
The magic weapon can change, it can be like a mountain when it is big, and it can be like a mustard seed when it is oblique, just like the golden seal of the dragon used by Cheng Liangqi and the others. The Panlong Golden Seal, even though it is the lowest level magic weapon, can also be turned into a mountain when sacrificed. The magic weapon is not good. Although there are some magical powers, basically the shape will not change. Even if it is a simple size change, the range of change will be very limited.
Therefore, the several large "dharma artifacts" refined by Ye Zan also maintained their original shape and size. These "magical instruments" include the shield machine specially used for excavating tunnels, which is also the largest machine, the dynamic tamping machine used for compacting the foundation, and the machine specially used for earthwork excavation. Of course, due to some characteristics of magical instruments, these machines are quite different from the prototype machines in the technological world. At least these machines do not require a cab. For example, excavators are like a simple large bucket.
Among these machines, Ye Zan also made a lot of modifications to the shield machine used to dig tunnels. For example, for the most important drill bit, Ye Zan used the chains that suppressed Yazi obtained from Xinjie as the main material. Ye Zan still doesn't know what the material of the chain is, but only speculates that a certain amount of legendary fairy gold may be mixed in it.
Immortal gold is a legendary metal. It is said that even in the ancient fairy court era, only those Daluo Jinxians were qualified to use immortal gold to refine magic weapons. Moreover, even the Great Luo Jinxian can only mix less fairy gold into his magic weapon to increase the power of the magic weapon.
Of course, these are just legends. After all, no one has really seen Xianjin since the ancient battle between immortals and demons. It is more like a farmer imagining that the emperor uses a golden hoe to make magic weapons. Perhaps it is a joke made up of imagination.
But no matter what you say, the drill bit of the shield machine uses the material of the chain, and it has indeed reached a considerable height in terms of firmness⊥ It is the so-called strongest alloy researched by Ye Zan when he crossed over in the world of science and technology , there is also a slight gap compared with it.
In addition to the powerful drill bit, Ye Zan also used the technology of Qiankun Ring in the shield machine to store the gravel and earthwork produced during tunnel excavation. To put it simply, Ye Zan built several space boxes in the shield machine according to the technology of Qiankunjie. These space boxes all have a large storage space, which is enough for the shield machine to work continuously for a long time. Moreover, during the working process of the shield machine, as long as the operator cleans the space box from time to time, the shield machine can almost continue to work until the operator does not have enough magic cage to move it.
"This, these are the magic weapons refined by Elder Ye?" Seeing those big guys, Cheng Liangqi and the others couldn't help but connect them with the magic weapons in common sense. In fact, let alone people like them from the Xin world, even in this Shenhua domain, no one has ever refined such a huge magic weapon as a shield machine. Even if it is the legendary Thirty-Three Heavens, the combination of those thirty-three magic weapons is not comparable to this large shield machine in terms of size.
"That's right, these magic tools are made by Elder Ye and are specially used for engineering." Ye Xiao nodded and said, and at the same time took out a few booklets and handed them to Cheng Liangqi and the others.
Cheng Liangqi and the others took the booklet with doubts on their faces, opened the booklet and realized that it was actually the operation guide for those "magic instruments". The magic weapon actually needs an operation guide? You must know that for these Yuanying ancestors, even if it is a magic weapon that they have never seen before, they can quickly become familiar with it. But now, Ye Zan even prepared operation instructions for these magic tools refined by Ye Zan. Isn't that a bit contemptuous?
However, after reading the contents of the pamphlet, Cheng Liangqi and the others were only surprised. Although the operation of those strange instruments is not so cumbersome, there are many standards that need to be paid attention to during the construction process. In addition, in terms of operation, it is indeed different from ordinary magic weapons, and it is not something that can be played with just a few tricks.
Seeing that Cheng Liangqi and others had read the pamphlet, Ye Xiao said to them: "Everyone, next, I will operate these instruments first, and you can compare them with the contents in the pamphlet."
"Brother Ye, please." Cheng Liangqi and the others said hastily.
Then, Ye Xiao came to a shield machine, and said to Cheng Liangqi and others: "Just now, you are digging a tunnel. This magic weapon is specially used for digging tunnels. I will use it first to give Let's set an example."
As he spoke, Ye Xiao raised his hand and pinched a formula, the shield machine shook slightly, and started silently following the formula. Then, under Ye Xiao's control, the shield machine turned to the cave that Cheng Liangqi and others had just dug, and slowly drove into it. And Ye Xiao pinched the formula, followed the shield machine, and walked into the cave.
Seeing this, Cheng Liangqi and the others immediately followed.
Although the cave is only tens of meters deep, the innermost part is already very dark. If it were an ordinary person, they might not be able to see anything. And the shield machine opened to the cave, and with Ye Xiao's magic trick, the whole body lit up with a faint light. Although the light is not strong, it still illuminates the scene in the cave quite clearly.
Finally, the drill bit at the front end of the shield machine touched the rock wall of the cave, and Ye Xiao immediately changed a formula in his hand. Following Ye Zan's changed technique, the drill bit of the shield machine began to rotate, and there was a bang of drilling rocks, causing the broken stones and fine sand in the cave to rustle and fall non-stop.
However, the eyes of Cheng Liangqi and others were always locked on the drill bit of the shield machine, without being affected by the surrounding environment in the slightest. As they watched, the rocks in the cave were wiped away piece by piece by the drill bit, as if they were grinding a piece of tofu. And with the advancement of the shield machine, the length of the cave is also continuously extending, and it looks as if the tight rock wall is automatically retreating.
Before they knew it, a ray of light lit up in the cracks in the cave, and Cheng Liangqi and others realized that the tunnel was about to be opened. The rays of light also changed from one beam to one, and then with a bang, the tunnel was completely penetrated.
"This, this magic weapon is really not specially made for such a project. Elder Ye's whimsical idea really makes us sigh!" As the tunnel penetrated, the shield machine They also stopped working, so Cheng Liangqi and others had a chance to express their emotions.
In fact, if in this world, ascetics have applied the knowledge of Taoism to the livelihood of ordinary people from a very early age, I am afraid that there will not be many magic tools like shield machines. After all, we are all human, as long as someone thinks about it, there will be similar or even better ideas.
It's a pity that the ascetics in this world both disdain and fear the secular world, so for tens of thousands of years, no ascetics have thought of using their abilities on secular mortals. This has resulted in the fact that the productivity of ordinary people in this world has always been so backward, and their lives have not changed much.
Cheng Liangqi and the others, after admiring the efficiency and power of the shield machine, turned around and looked at the tunnel that had just penetrated, and couldn't help but feel ashamed of the quality of their previous construction.
This tunnel is straight without any deviation. Although the walls of the tunnel cannot be said to be as smooth as a mirror, they are quite flat. The wall of the cave was as if it had been polished by hand, without any traces of chopping and cutting. It was in sharp contrast to the dozens of meters that Cheng Liangqi and others had built before.
At this time, Ye Xiao's formula changed, and a metal box flew out of the shield machine. Holding the metal box, he said to Cheng Liangqi and others: "When this magic weapon excavates the tunnel, all the gravel and earthwork produced are collected in this box. There are three such boxes in this magic weapon. If you take turns If it is cleaned up, it can continue to operate without stopping until the tunnel is opened."
"So that's it!" Cheng Liangqi and the others, after hearing Ye Xiao's explanation, also thought of the content in the pamphlet. Before, they used flying swords to dig tunnels and Qiankun Ring to carry gravel, although it was not too much trouble, but this shield machine is obviously much more convenient in this respect.
Then, Ye Xiao didn't care about the shield machine, but took Cheng Liangqi and others back the same way, came to several other machines, and demonstrated them one by one to Cheng Liangqi and others.
After watching all the demonstrations, Cheng Liangqi and the others no longer had any doubts about these magic tools, and said excitedly: "Great, with these few magic tools, this rail transit project will definitely be even better. Get it done better!"
