Yuan Shoucheng kindly guided the fisherman to go fishing that day. Unexpectedly, the fisherman's greed for too much angered the Dragon King of Jinghe River. The Dragon King came to make a bet with him, and finally changed the rain time in order to win, causing the Dragon King to be beheaded. Yuan Shoucheng originally thought that he would be fine if he directed the Dragon King to seek help from the Human Emperor, but he didn't expect that the Dragon King would still die.
"Cause and effect." Yuan Shoucheng believed that it was entirely his own fault that he was targeted by Jie Jiao, and that he had revealed the secret. He felt that this time was a disaster, so he left a lot of last words to his nephew Yuan Tiangang. Anyway, if he couldn't go back, the Yuan family would rely on Yuan Tiangang.
"However, the nephew thinks that his uncle's problem is not big. He believes that since Heaven has given Jie Jiao a chance, his trip to the west may not necessarily be a bad thing.
Anyway, the uncle and nephew have completely different views.
After simply packing a few sets of clothes and bringing some copper coins, Yuan Shoucheng set off. After riding a carriage and arriving directly outside the city, we saw that the hot air balloon was surrounded by people watching the excitement.
There are still several carriages carrying things. Yuan Shoucheng chose the day of departure because the weather is very good today and it is also suitable for a long trip in the almanac.
"Bacon, sauerkraut, boiled eggs, and steamed buns are all things that are easy to store. The steamed buns were made last night, and they are all hot now." Yunyao said, "The other thing is water. Water is the most precious. Because you can¡¯t bring too much.¡±
The female consort didn¡¯t listen at all. She was just very excited. After many years, she was finally going back to her hometown for revenge. Although the Huang family's grievances are difficult to clear up in a short time due to political struggles, they must not make things easier for their enemies.
Yuan Shoucheng had a headache when he saw the couple. Naturally, he could tell at a glance that the consort was a woman. He believed that the princess must also know it. However, the princess did not reveal it and even flirted with the consort in public. He knew that the princess must be It is better to polish the mirror. He had long heard that the atmosphere in the palace was chaotic, and even the princess was inevitably affected, which showed that the palace was indeed a quagmire.
"Master Yuan is here, let's get ready to go." Yunyao is now dressed in men's clothing, carrying a bow and sword on her back. Since she is traveling far away, it would be too inconvenient to wear a long skirt. Her boots are also carefully selected from deerskin. Long boots, waterproof and warm.
Yuan Shoucheng just nodded, got on the hot air balloon and entered his room. The small building has two bedrooms and one living room, one large and one small. The big room naturally belongs to the princess consort, and the small room belongs to Yuan Shoucheng. They came to allocate it yesterday. As for the panda, naturally he lives in the living room.
In fact, they are quite crowded. Although there are two rooms, they are just for sleeping. There is no way to do more activities. Of course, it is still possible to stack them together.
The food is placed in the living room, so the panda only has space to sleep. The way to the second floor is through a vertical ladder. There are surveying tools, a special compass, coal and a boiler that generates hot gas to drive the propeller. It is also where three people work.
"Now that everyone is here, let's set off." Yunyao led the three people up to the second floor, waved to the crowd outside, released the cable and flew into the sky amidst everyone's cheers.
Everyone saw that the hot air balloon was getting higher and higher, and finally turned into a point. Yuan Shoucheng looked at the curved horizon in the distance and discovered for the first time that the sky was not round and the earth was not round. It turned out that they lived on a ball.
Soon Chang'an disappeared, and they flew towards Jiannan Road in the southwest. I don¡¯t know how many people will be surprised along the way, because hot air balloons are really a new thing. It had never appeared before, so they didn't recognize it and probably thought it was some kind of magical weapon. We can only wait until hot air balloons become more popular in the future, or officials who know about hot air balloons will conduct popular science.
Yuan Shoucheng was helpless looking at the specially made compass because he couldn't use it. This new compass not only pointed to the southeast, northwest, but also up and down, which made him confused. In fact, this cannot be called a compass at all. It should be called a gyroscope, but it has the function of a compass.
I still feel that my own little compass is easy to use. Although it is very old, it is still a living thing passed down by my ancestor. I really don¡¯t know how to use this new compass.
Yun Yao suddenly asked Yuan Shoucheng: "They say that the sun rises in the east and rains in the west. What range can you calculate for the weather? We will fly out of Chang'an soon. Do we need to divine the weather outside again?" The propeller pushed, and the hot air balloon Flying pretty fast.
Yuan Shoucheng used to do fortune telling in Chang'an City, and this was the first time he encountered a situation where he had to cross multiple regions in one day, so he didn't know if the weather he calculated could cover all regions.
Yuan Shoucheng really needs to recalculate. In this situation of rapid progress, I have only heard that urgent battle reports require such an exaggerated speed. As a fortune teller, he doesn't have to be so fast. Different areas have different weather, so you can only recalculate once for each area. "I have never repeated divination multiple times in one day before."??The weather, this is really a strange thing. "
Yunyao thought that Yuan Shoucheng still had limitations. Although it was more accurate than the weather forecast, the weather forecast could report the weather in multiple regions at one go. However, Yuan Shoucheng could only predict one place at a time. If he changed the region, he would have to make a new forecast. But luckily, it wasn¡¯t too difficult even considering the weather.
But Yunyao felt that Yuan Shoucheng was too conservative and should upgrade the compass to a gyroscope: "Master Yuan doesn't seem to like using gyroscopes for fortune telling."
"The human race is down-to-earth, but this gyroscope has two more directions and countless more possibilities. I can't even count them." Yuan Shoucheng was also very honest and did not pretend to understand.
Yunyao said: "This gyroscope can calculate more things. If you can master it, you can create a Taoist tradition. Why not use this opportunity of traveling to improve your abilities?"
This is the truth, but Yuan Shoucheng had to be careful to avoid getting entangled with Jie Jiao. That would not be good for him, so he chose to remain silent and pretend to be divination.
Seeing that the other party was always on guard against her, Yunyao thought that if she didn¡¯t give this princess face, she would wear small shoes for you after returning to Chang¡¯an. He looked at the female consort again and found that she was looking ahead, wishing that she could go home immediately to avenge the whole family. Obviously, she was not in the mood to pay attention to his little wife.
Yunyao found that she was enjoying this trip, and everyone else had their own concerns. One was thinking about revenge, the other was thinking about self-protection, but no one could share the joy with her. Sure enough, it was right to take the panda with me. It was a long journey. If there were no panda to relieve the pressure, I would have been bored to death by these two guys.
"Forget it, now that we have set off, all that's left is to hurry up and stop thinking about it. Yunyao said to Yuan Shoucheng: "Tell me when you get to the fragments of the Zhuxian Sword. Finding the fragments is the most important task of this trip. You can do whatever you want with the rest of the time." Yunyao also started to work. She wanted to survey and map a piece of the sword. Accurate map of the Southwest to see how far you have traveled.
It is very cool at high altitude. Fortunately, the three of them are not ordinary people and have the ability to withstand the cold. The mountains and rivers at your feet are undulating, and the rivers flow across the landscape. It's a majestic scenery, but it's not interesting to see too much, so you should concentrate on your work.
There are small tables installed on the fence on the second floor, so the three of them can work back to back without disturbing each other. Now there is only the sound of wind, no more conversation, everyone is concentrating on doing their own things.
When the Tang people on the ground saw the balloon, they all exclaimed, asking what on earth is this? Some people even knelt down and worshiped. Maybe there will be a weird legend of the flying big-headed ghost added to folklore in the future.
