Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 182 Ancient Shield Machine

This cave entrance was accidentally opened by the mining slaves.After opening it, the mine slaves wanted to go in and see what was going on, but then they were knocked out by the Yuanci Divine Light from Yuanci Mountain.

The Zhou family immediately reported the situation, and after the Zhou family's master, wife and son came to see it, they immediately sealed the entrance of the cave and issued a sealing order, prohibiting any more mining of ore from this direction.

The ordinary Zhou family does not know Yuanci Mountain, but the old man of the Zhou family knows this treasure. He once worked as an iron-smelting boy in the Shenwu Sword Sect for several years, and saw the Jindan monks of the Shenwu Sword Sect refining Yuanci materials. .This thing is an excellent material for forging flying swords in the Shenwu Sword Sect, and every kilogram can be sold at a sky-high price.

And in this cavity, there is such a large piece of metamagnetic material, which is destined to make the Zhou family prosperous!
Because he was about to become rich, Mr. Zhou decided to marry Mrs. Ru, and Mrs. Zhou also had the courage to tell Mr. Zhou that she would train him to become a golden elixir monk.Because there is such a piece of Yuanci Mountain, the Zhou family will never be poor for as long as they live.If that doesn't work, give this treasure mountain to the Shenwu Sword Sect, and a big sect like the Shenwu Sword Sect will also give them a huge fortune.

It's just...it's just that this treasure mountain has been discovered by Zhang Miao.

Zhang Miao stood at the entrance of the cave and carefully observed the cavity.This cavity is obviously not naturally formed, because there are traces of ax and chisel cuts everywhere, and it was obviously dug like this by someone.He observed carefully and finally found a doorway in a part of the cavity.

'This door should be the passage in.If you enter through this passage, you should not be attacked by Yuanci Divine Light. ' Zhang Miao thought in his mind.

This Yuan Magnetic Divine Light is a substance that is produced when Yuan Magnetic Materials are enriched to a certain extent. It has extremely strong penetrating and lethality.Currently, there is no defensive means that can protect against Yuanci's divine light, and being hit by Yuanci's divine light can result in the destruction of bones and flesh at the least, and the death of the soul in the worst case.This is a kind of divine light that is extremely damaging to the soul and body.

This treasure has now been discovered by Zhang Miao, and he has no reason to give up.

At this time, the mine suddenly shook violently, like an earthquake. There were obvious waves on the ground, and the earth and rocks above their heads fell down, hitting everyone one after another.

The faces of everyone in the Zhou family changed, and they immediately shouted: "No, it's the earth dragon turning over. Everyone, run away!" After they said that, they ran out of the cave in fear.

But at this moment, the entire mine shook violently again. This shaking was extremely terrifying, as if someone was beating the mountain.Zhang Miao shouted in his heart that something was wrong, and at this moment the tiger suddenly rolled up Zhang Miao and protected him in his body.Then the whole snake curled up into a ball, facing the collapse of the mine.

Yes, under such violent shaking, the mine was finally overwhelmed and collapsed!

Tens of thousands of tons of earth and rock came down, directly crushing all these mine tunnels.At this time, Zhang Miao also saw how powerful Hui's body was.

He took a deep breath, the snake's body expanded and tightened, and the muscles all over its body were like bulging rubber rings, suddenly becoming hard and tough.Countless rocks and earth hit the snake, but they were all bounced away by its muscles.When the mine completely collapsed, Hui's body stubbornly held the collapsed mine, protecting Zhang Miao under him.

After a long time, the surroundings stabilized.The snake then gently swayed its body and returned to its original state.At this time, the space he held up was like a small house, which did not collapse even after he became smaller.

"It was so dangerous, I almost got crushed." At this time, Hui exhaled a breath and said a rare word.

Zhang Miao also nodded with lingering fear and said, "Yes, this earthquake happened too suddenly." At this point, he became suspicious.This earthquake really happened too suddenly.Why didn't you come earlier or later, when he discovered Yuanci Mountain?

He squatted down, placed his palms on the ground, and began to comprehend carefully.After a while, he said: "The earth's energy is stable and the earth's veins are not unstable. This earthquake is not natural. Someone moved the earth's veins and caused this earthquake!"

As a Feng Shui Formation Master, Zhang Miao can deduce many things from earth veins, water veins, and air veins.If it was a normal earth dragon turning over, it must be an abnormal movement of the entire earth vein.The Wutong Mountains have a main earth vein, and countless branch earth veins extend out. The earth veins are mountains.The earth's veins are usually very stable. Unless something big happens, the earth's veins will not move on their own.

But if someone touches the ley lines, it's different.Thinking of the demon invasion incident in Zhou's mine, Zhang Miao guessed that this incident was probably caused by those demons.

It is too easy for the demon to move the earth veins.As long as a goblin who is good at digging holes digs through the nodes of the earth's veins, it is very likely to cause the earth dragon to turn over.

"Haha, it seems that the Zhou family dug into Yuanci Mountain and alerted the Yuanci Divine Light, as well as some demons." Zhang Miao chuckled and expressed his speculation.

This kind of thing is also normal.Human beings are not very sensitive to the force of metamagnetism, but some beasts are very sensitive to the force of metamagnetism. Some birds, insects, or beasts are guided by geomagnetism, and geomagnetism is also a type of metamagnetism.After these things became spirits, they became more sensitive to Yuanci. When the Zhou family dug up Yuanci Mountain, they naturally revealed the power of Yuanci, alarming the goblins.

Zhang Miao deduced from these clues that they were almost inseparable.But now he also encountered a problem.

How is he going to get out? !
Zhang Miao looked around, and then said to Hui hopefully: "Hui, you are digging a hole, right? Can you take me out?"

At this time, the snake shook his head sincerely and said, "No, snakes can't dig holes. Snakes can only occupy holes made by others!"

"Then how are we going to get out?" Zhang Miao immediately asked with some ominousness.

"It's up to you to figure it out yourself!" Hui yawned. He wrapped his arms around Zhang Miao's neck and fell asleep without caring about Zhang Miao's reaction.

Zhang Miao was also made to lose her temper.It is true that snakes cannot dig holes. It is indeed difficult for some strong snakes to ask a snake to dig a passage out.Zhang Miao felt a little numb now.He scratched his head, released the gourd boys, and then said to them: "We are trapped underground. Now we have to dig to survive and dig a passage!"

When the four gourd kids heard this, their little faces were greatly confused. Then Zhang Miao took out a few pieces of hard cold iron from the storage bag and said with a smile: "The good news is, I have a good cold iron." Iron can be used to forge the best hoe and pickaxe, making us twice as efficient!"

His joke was not funny at all, and the four gourd boys looked at him coldly.
-
It is impossible to dig the ground. It is impossible to dig the ground in this life. If you really have to dig a passage, you will have to dig it until the year of the monkey.Zhang Miao made fun of herself and then squatted on the ground to start designing.

Don't forget, he is still a half-baked mechanic.Zhang Miao was self-taught in mechanical skills. Although he did not become a talent, he had the experience and knowledge from his previous life and had observed many excavators.So he wants to build a shield machine! "The shield machine is composed of a rotating excavating head and a structural cavity. As the name suggests, the rotating excavating head can rotate. We only need to install blades on it..." Zhang Miao explained to several gourd boys around him while drawing pictures.

The four gourd boys were forced to attend the class. They didn't know anything about TBMs.Zhang Miao actually knew little about it, but it did not affect his ability to create a shield machine.

He planned to use steel for the rotating excavating head of the shield machine, and the most important blade on it was made of cold iron.Cold iron is an extremely hard iron, which is perfect for making knife heads.The key is that Zhang Miao has a lot of these things in his storage bag.

Ordinary steel is smelted on site. This is an iron mine, and the most indispensable thing is iron ore.

With the materials, it is not difficult for Zhang Miao to forge these things.This is the world of cultivation, and blast furnaces are not needed to make iron and steel.With these things out of the way, all that's left is the powertrain.Zhang Miao will use hard pig iron to make a crankshaft drive, and use gears to drive the rotation of the cutterhead.As for the power output, Zhang Miao looked at Dawa and had an idea in his mind.

He planned to make something similar to a bicycle pedal system, and let the big boy ride the bicycle, sing songs, and dig the hole!

After everything is designed, the next step is manufacturing and assembly!

The blue elixir fire was released and burned directly to the rock wall next to it. The rock wall quickly melted into juice. Because of the difference in density, the iron and rock components were separated. Zhang Miao only needed to concentrate on extracting the iron juice. That’s it.

Not long after the burning, there was a large piece of pig iron in front of Zhang Miao.Then Zhang Miao continued to heat the pig iron red and let Da Wa forge it into shape.

Without saying a word, the coolie boy took his own gourd and started banging it. He had been doing this job for several years and was now very skilled at it.Under Zhang Miao's command, he knocked the pig iron into wrought iron, then forged the wrought iron into shape, and a circular cutterhead one foot high was completed.

Next, Zhang Miao forged the cold iron into blades and installed them on the cutterhead one by one.Then once the elixir is baked, the knife plate and the knife head are integrated and flawless.The next step is to forge various gears and transmission rods.This thing has no technical content, it just needs to be hard enough.And under the forging of Dan Fire, there is nothing that cannot be hardened.

The most troublesome thing about the advancement of science and technology is the advancement of materials, because it is too difficult to obtain materials that meet people's expectations.When manpower is eventually exhausted, the processing of materials is often very difficult.

In the world of spiritual practice, this is precisely the simplest.The elixir fire of the Golden elixir monk can melt all things. At the Nascent Soul realm, the Nascent Soul monk's spiritual thoughts can penetrate deep into the material, and can even fine-tune the material at the molecular level. What kind of material cannot be manufactured using this method?Not to mention there are magical formations and strange restrictions, which can bring unimaginable changes to the materials.

Pulling far away...

With Zhang Miao's efforts, a decent shield machine appeared in front of everyone.The four gourd boys claimed to have seen the world, but they still had to admit that they had never seen this guy who looked strangely like a big flat-headed earthworm.

Inside the 'big flat-headed earthworm', there are several foot pedal seats. Zhang Miao said with a smile: "Everyone just needs to sit on the seat and step on the foot pedal, and this big thing will be able to operate." .”

There are five seats on it. It seems that everyone has to contribute, but in fact the most important contribution position is the position of the eldest child, and the other people focus on being a companion.

There are wheels on the shield machine. When you step on the pedal, the wheels will also rotate forward, providing forward power to the shield machine.Everyone was driven behind the shield machine by Zhang Miao, and then sat down at the assigned positions.Da Wa transformed into a big guy over one foot tall, sitting on his special seat.

After everyone was seated, Zhang Miao gave the order and everyone started to step on the pedals.The transmission equipment in the shield machine begins to rotate, the shield machine begins to move forward, and the cutterhead begins to rotate.

'This speed is not good. This thought flashed through Zhang Miao's mind, and then he adjusted the gearbox.Then he shouted: "Everyone, work harder and step on! One, two, one, two!"

Because the gearbox was adjusted, everyone suddenly felt that the pedals under their feet were more difficult to press.But at this time, Zhang Miao started shouting again, so these gourd boys could only increase their efforts.

Of course, the second sister, the third baby and the fourth baby are all just foils, it is the eldest baby who really exerts his power.Da Wa was very strong. Under Zhang Miao's call, he suddenly exerted his strength, and his feet were like invincible hot wheels. He stepped on the pedal and turned into a shadow!

At this moment, the shield machine suddenly ejected and hit the rock wall directly. The cutterhead began to rotate and cut rapidly, cutting off a large amount of rock and soil blocks and throwing them out from the side of the cutterhead. In just the blink of an eye, the shield machine Just one foot forward.

"What a big boy! You are really my brother's treasure!" Seeing this scene, Zhang Miao laughed loudly, pushed the transmission rod with his hand, and began to control the direction of the shield machine.

Soon, the TBM drilled into the soil like a worm and headed towards its destination.

Since the shield machine is easy to use, Zhang Miao is not in a hurry to use this treasure to leave the underground. Instead, he controls this thing to move towards the entrance of the cavity of Yuanci Mountain.

Zhang Miao didn't know if the door he saw was the real entrance, but it was right to go in that direction.

At this moment, in a cave less than ten miles away from Zhang Miao, several strange-looking guys were gathering together to chat.

"The Mountain King dug through the earth veins, causing the Earth Dragon to turn over. Now that annoying human mine has collapsed. Even if the people inside have all kinds of skills, they will still be trapped under the thick soil. It will not affect them. Our business." A goblin with two horns and yellow eyes and red hair said with a smile.

Next to him was a man with a livid face, black and white hair, and a certain Shamate style.This man is an obsessed demon. When demons are not crazy, they are just like ordinary people.But once a demon goes crazy, he loses his reason and himself.

The demon nodded. He held a compass in his hand, looked at it for a while, and then said: "Now that the earth dragon has calmed down, we can continue to explore this place. I have determined that this is a suspected tomb of Zhenjun Yaori. Moreover, with the existence of Yuanci Mountain inside, it must be a tomb of extremely high standard. Maybe it really is the place where the remains of True Lord Yaori are."
