Chapter 444: A Family of Craftsmen
Bai Jiu listened for a long time and felt that the rules were not explained very clearly.
"Excuse me, why are we pushing this cart?" She asked with some confusion, "Didn't it mean we could go back and forth by ourselves?"
"Of course not." Dima said, "You don't seem to be very educated people. I'm afraid I'm the only one who has read through "Three Kingdoms". "
"No." Yun Jiu shook his head, "I'm afraid we have all read it. What do you want to say?"
After hearing this, Qiao Jiajin consciously took a step aside.
Yes, he probably hasn't read it.
"Oh?" Di Ma stroked his mane with some disdain, "Have you all read it? It's true that people can't be judged by their appearance. In that case, how did "Wooden Cow and Flowing Horse" come about? "
Cloud 19 replied without hesitation: "The wooden ox and the flowing horse should be a means of transportation invented by Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period. It is divided into wooden ox and flowing horse. Historical records indicate that Zhuge Liang used it during the Northern Expedition from the ninth to the twelfth year of Jianxing. "
Bai Jiu also smiled and said: "According to legend, the load of a wooden cow and a flowing horse is "one year's grain", which is about more than four hundred kilograms. The daily journey is "tens of miles for a special traveler and thirty miles for a group traveler." For Shu Han An army of 100,000 people transported food. "
Di Ma really didn't expect that these people dressed so casually would be quite knowledgeable when they opened their mouths, so he could only nod his head in surprise.
At this time, a tall girl also spoke: "Although the name of your game is "Wooden Cow and Flowing Horse," in fact, no one knows the true style and appearance of the Wooden Cow and Flowing Horse, and many documents have different explanations for it. Some say it is just an ordinary wheelbarrow, others say it is a wooden structure in the shape of an ox and a horse. "
Qiao Jiajin looked at this very tall girl. If he remembered correctly, her name was Feng Shiqi.
"I didn't expect that." Di Ma turned to look at everyone, "You are quite knowledgeable... but so what?"
"What……?"
"This knowledge is just words to you..." Dima stroked the wooden cart beside him with some sadness, "Even if there are craftsmen who restore these lost things, you will only say that there is no one in this world. I’ve seen it before, so the restoration is fake.”
Qiao Jiajin scratched his head in confusion: "I, I don't quite understand what you mean... Could it be that what others said is wrong? Aren't the things made by future generations fake?"
"Of course what they said is wrong." Dima said, "The meaning of our carpentry family's existence is to restore these lost precision wooden tools, and often no one understands them for the rest of their lives..."
After hearing this, Qiao Jiajin looked at the wooden boxes placed on both sides of the runway. Since it was a "carpentry family", were those wooden boxes also made by this local horse?
"I still don't understand." Qiao Jiajin said, "I also know a lot of carpentry families... but are you a little extreme?"
"extreme?"
"What kind of cow and horse is this..." Qiao Jiajin patted the cart beside him, "Does it mean anything to you?"
"No, I said... I just want to reproduce these lost things. They are part of the splendid history that has been lost in the long river of time."
"What's the meaning?" Qiao Jiajin asked.
"significance?"
"After listening to your introduction just now, I feel that this thing has helped Zhuge Liang before, which means it should be a transportation device, right?"
"Yes." Di Ma nodded, "Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse are recorded in many ancient books. It is the cart Zhuge Liang used when transporting grain and grass in the mountains."
"Then he should be of great significance to Zhuge Liang, not you." Qiao Jiajin said, "Are you dedicating your whole life to this kind of thing? Does Zhuge Liang agree to this?"
"ah……?"
"Maybe I'm talking too much." Qiao Jiajin smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I just hope that when you are free, you can do something happier instead of this kind of thing."
"You..." Dima sighed. He didn't know why he actually said so much to this annoying man with flowery arms. He could only sigh and said, "You don't have to please me before playing the game. In addition to your own Apart from my obsession, I have nothing to be happy about. If you can’t win this game, your death will be worse than anywhere else.”
"Is it that difficult?" Qiao Jiajin said, "As long as each of us can push the cart back and forth once, we can complete the game, right?"
"No..." Di Ma shook his head, "Because the original design concept of Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse was "transportation"... so your passing through the runway has no effect..."
"Ah?" Qiao Jiajin suddenly didn't understand. "Wait a minute... didn't you just say that as long as everyone can go back and forth on the track once, the game can be won?"
"Yes, but that's not a complete rule." Di Ma laughed and said, "Only if all seven people make a round trip on a wooden cow and flowing horse, it will be considered as passing the test."
"I'm throwing it?!" Qiao Jiajin was stunned for a moment, "You fan... what nonsense are you talking about, you lady? Doesn't it count us running barefoot on the ground?"
"It doesn't count." Di Ma shook his head, "I will watch the whole process from the side. All seven of you must sit on the "Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse" and go back and forth once. If you cheat, you will be punished. "
"This is really difficult..." Qiao Jiajin lowered his head and looked back at the teammates behind him, as if waiting for their ideas.
Although Qi Xia was not there, Qiao Jiajin brought a group of "little brains" with him.
"What do you... say?"
"Um... Qiao brother, come with me." Bai Jiu reached out and tugged at his clothes.
Qiao Jiajin nodded and retreated to the corner with everyone else.
"Do you have any ideas?"
"Almost..." Bai Jiu nodded, "Although this game is a racing game, it seems to require some cooperation."
Yun Shijiu also nodded: "Yes, the ground horse only counts the people sitting on the "wooden ox and flowing horse", but it doesn't say anything about the people on the track..."
"It seems that Shijiu and I think the same." Bai Jiu nodded, "We can attack with all our members in each round."
"All members...?"
"We have seven people." Bai Jiu explained, "In each round, only one person needs to sit on the chair, and then three people are sent on each side to keep the cart stable, which will greatly increase the time it takes us to pass the track."
"Yes
