Chapter 282 The Art of Wooden Armor

Before leaving, Mo Qiong went to the library.

As far as he knew, the library of Yanda University was a peripheral training location of the Blue and White Society in Dengzhou.

Unlike the Extreme Island where formal members were trained, peripheral personnel learned knowledge and skills at their respective workplaces.

Just like Mike at the beginning, he was from a security company, so he could learn shooting and driving, as well as many other skills in his unit.

But not all peripheral units have such conditions for learning, so in some cities, there will be some training institutions invested by the Blue and White Society. While opening their doors for business, they also provide special training for peripheral personnel.

For example, some gyms, shooting clubs, driving schools, etc., peripheral personnel can go to relevant places to practice whatever they want.

Yanda University Library is such a place, a peripheral public learning place.

At the beginning, Du Xiaoyu was just a parkour master on the surface. If such peripheral personnel want to improve themselves, they will go to the public learning and training places in their cities.

In an unopened area of ​​Yanda University Library, there are all the cultural materials in the world, as well as some little-known works, and even many internal teaching materials of the Blue and White Society.

Che Yun originally studied here at the end of every month, and the part-time administrator just wanted to meet other peripheral personnel and get to know them.

However, there are too few peripheral personnel who come here to study. After all, this is just a place for self-study of cultural knowledge. Che Yun only took two days to come here, and most of the time she went to participate in extreme sports and practice shooting and fighting.

Mo Qiong asked around and found that Che Yun had not been here for two years.

With his badge, Mo Qiong easily entered the secret learning area that was not open to the public.

Peripheral personnel in this place need a license, but formal members do not need one. An Alpha badge can open all peripheral units in the world.

"Hello." After entering, Mo Qiong found that there was already a peripheral personnel reading a book inside.

Seeing Mo Qiong come in, the man was very surprised and hurried to shake hands.

"Finally, there is someone from our own company, brother, which company?" The man said in surprise.

Obviously, this person should have come here many times, but he was alone every time and had never met other comrades.

This time when he saw Mo Qiong, he thought that he finally got to know other peripheral personnel in this city.

He didn't think Mo Qiong was a formal member. It was clear from his question. He didn't ask Mo Qiong which department he was from, but which company.

Mo Qiong smiled and said, "I'm a farmer."

This is a typical self-proclaimed member. If it was a high-level member of the periphery, he would have heard it. However, this person seemed to be just a peripheral staff who acted in isolation. I thought Mo Qiong was really a farmer. After all, peripheral professions are all kinds of strange and varied, and there are all kinds of people in all walks of life.

"Ah... so, my name is Yingfei, I'm a tomb robber, responsible for monitoring the tomb robbing business, and I came here to check the information. What about you?"

"Oh, I'm just looking around."

When this person said his profession, Mo Qiong looked sideways. There really are all kinds of professions. The person in front of him who looks like a white-collar worker is actually a tomb robber.

However, all walks of life need informants, and the tomb robbing business naturally cannot be without its own people. If someone digs out some shelter objects, how can the Blue and White Society not know about it at all?

Sheltered objects have existed since ancient times. Didn't Mo Qiong use Zhang He's hand to find a deep-diving wood carving from the sea four hundred years ago?

There might be a collection hidden in the tomb of some ancient noble.

Ying Fei told him that the collection was found when the Qin Shihuang Mausoleum was excavated.

Of course, the collection had nothing to do with Qin Shihuang's sweeping across the world. It was a collection of terracotta warriors.

The terracotta warriors were alive and had their own thoughts. They could make a hundred people nearby synchronize with him. That is, if he didn't move, the hundred people couldn't move. If he took a step forward, the hundred people also took a step forward at the same time.

Absolute synchronization.

He took a step and thrust out a spear, and even if a hundred people were wounded, they would take the same step and thrust out a spear at the same speed without any error.

Of course, if the synchronized person had no hands or feet, it would be useless. In addition to this situation, as long as the person was still alive, even if he was in shock, he would complete the synchronization.

If the terracotta warriors existed before the burial, then the Qin State might have established an absolutely excellent army with iron discipline and uniformity through it.

However, one hundred people can only affect a local battlefield, and the Terracotta Warriors containment has a great disadvantage, that is, the people who are synchronized with him will suffocate, because the Terracotta Warriors' lungs do not rise and fall.

In this way, the chest of the synchronizer is also forcibly suppressed, and the lungs will not expand even if they want to breathe, and then they cannot breathe.

In other words, if he controls the enemy, he only needs to stand still. The Terracotta Warriors can stop a hundred people from standing still. Even if no one takes the opportunity to stab them, the hundred people will suffocate to death in a few minutes.

If this Terracotta Warrior really participated in the war, then Qin Shihuang might have wanted to have more of his strange objects, and he would have requisitioned skilled craftsmen to create thousands of Terracotta Warriors based entirely on his materials, and even liked things like the Golden Man very much.

Mo Qiong also knew something about this containment.

Because there is no relevant record, and there is no evidence that Qin State had any signs of his activity.

The research department still tends to believe that he is a containment that appeared inexplicably after the Terracotta Warriors were buried alive.

After all, although the terracotta warriors and horses have thoughts and memories, he cannot remember things that are too far away. They have been buried underground for two thousand years. The long silence and loneliness have long destroyed his mind and erased too many of his memories.

However, he claimed to be the "Lord of Qin Er Wu Bai" and Su Qu died.

This is probably the only evidence that he existed before being buried, but because it is his self-proclaimed name, it is not trustworthy, because this may be his self-identified personality, or the military position he represents among the terracotta warriors and horses.

The Lord of Two and Five Hundred was the commander of thousands of troops in the Qin Army, which was a normal military position at that time. Including the name Su Qusheng, it is also very normal. It was a common style of personal name in the Qin and Han Dynasties.

However, after integrating into the Blue and White Society, he learned a lot about modern culture. The containment object often mocked himself and called himself: Erwuzisu, go to hell.

"Is there still such a joke?" Yingfei is not a formal member, so naturally he doesn't know this kind of joking name that is only known in the circle of formal members.

"Yes." Although Mo Qiong did not have access to the terracotta warriors and horses like Ying Fei, his authority could already browse the blocked version of the beta-level containment objects.

Mo Qiong chatted with him for a while and found that this man was not looking for ordinary information, but was researching the location of a secret treasure.

He believed that Lu Ban and even the earlier Yanshi had mastered a container related to the wooden armor mechanism.

The legend of the wooden kite flying for three days may be true, and so is Yanshi's dancing doll.

Yingfei was obsessed with this, and summarized a lot of information for Mo Qiong to see, and pointed out that if such a situation occurs in a modern city, the Blue and White Society will definitely regard it as an abnormal event, and then intervene in the investigation to confirm whether there is a contained object behind it. factor.

So this happened in the pre-Qin Dynasty, shouldn't it be viewed from a containment perspective?

"I have experienced the Terracotta Warriors and Horses incident, and it was after that that I became a peripheral member. The Terracotta Warriors and Horses can be stored objects, so why not wooden figures? "Book of Rites" has a note: Terracotta warriors are also puppets, with faces and features. They are similar to human beings. They move around mechanically, so they are called figurines. "Guang Ya" also says: The wooden figures were placed at funerals and could jump, so they were called figurines."

"In other words, wooden figures that can rotate and jump on their own due to mechanical activation are wooden figurines. This kind of thing was widespread in the pre-Qin period. Gongshu Ban could cut bamboo into magpies and make wood into kites. Mozi also developed many war weapons. Such as the earliest crossbows and ladders.”

"In the early Han Dynasty, there were many descriptions of a kind of automatic wooden man in the pre-Qin Dynasty, which could drive a wooden chariot and a wooden horse to travel very far. This is hundreds of years earlier than the saying that a wooden cow flows like a horse..."

"What's more important is that my ancestor once robbed an ancient tomb in the Han Dynasty. The ancient tomb was full of mechanisms and guarded by wooden men. They were armored and strong, light and agile. They killed all the tomb robbers at that time, and only my ancestor was left. Survived and burned the wooden man to death with a fire. My colleagues all thought that my ancestor Hei Chihei killed them, but according to the statement passed down from generation to generation in my own family, I personally firmly believe that my ancestor did not lie..."

Yingfei didn't know how long he had been researching. He searched for countless information in order to find his imaginary containment object.

Among them are precious collections collected by the Blue and White Society that are unknown to outsiders, as well as some rumors that are known to him from a family of tomb robbers.

Combining various information, he was extremely convinced that there was such a containment, and that containment could create wooden figures, wooden birds, and even various wooden armored objects that were indistinguishable from living people.

However, most of them were destroyed in the pre-Qin Dynasty. Because during the Chu-Han War, the rebels burned a large number of tombs, so by the time of the Han Dynasty, very few of them were passed down. If there were any, they were brought into the tombs and disappeared completely after that.

As for the method or tools for making such wooden figures, they were lost or disappeared in the early Han Dynasty.

In the past few years, Yingfei applied for a lot of funding on the grounds of searching for this object, and cooperated with the archaeological team to excavate many Han Dynasty tombs and pre-Qin ancient tombs.

It's a pity that nothing was found, so that the superiors have now characterized this statement as: maybe there is, don't pursue it, just let nature take its course.

Thinking about it, even if this contained object really exists, there is no need to pursue it at all. After all, it has not existed in this world, it has not affected modern society, and there is no evidence that it has huge hidden dangers.

Even its existence is unknown. Things that disappeared as early as two thousand years ago, the Blue and White Society has no need to dig deeper and find it.

Therefore, in the past two years, Infinite no longer has the support of Blue and White Society, and it is completely on its own to persist in searching.
