Chapter 196: How powerful the tiger-eyed mecha is

Gongsun Ce saw a detailed mecha concept map on the drawing, with every detail depicted vividly.

Gongsun Ce's eyes wandered over the drawings, from the overall outline of the mecha to the structure of each component, to the densely packed parameters and ingredients, which were quite detailed.

Gongsun Ce had a feeling that if he really provided Gongshu Chou and Master Ban with enough raw materials, whether the mecha could move was another matter, but it should not fall apart.

Gongsun Ce gently stroked the drawing, feeling the uneven texture on the paper.

Various combinations of materials, processes and technologies quickly emerged in his mind, trying to find a feasible solution.

However, the most important thing is not whether it can fall apart, but whether it can move. Even if it requires human control, this mecha can be called a miracle.

"Can we first build a sample that can be controlled artificially?"

Facing Gongsun Ce's question, Gongshu Chou nodded affirmatively, "According to the discussion between me and the old class, we can first make a sample that is about the same height as the mechanical white and tiger."

“How about supplies?”

This is the issue that Gongsun Ce is most concerned about at the moment. If the consumables are too exaggerated, it is better to make one for fun first.

Master Ban stroked his white beard and gave a positive answer, "Because it is a humanoid structure, the materials it consumes are less than those of a mechanical beast of the same size."

Gongsun Ce nodded. He could accept this result.

At this time Gongsun Ce suddenly thought of the Demon God of War in Loulan. If he used the Demon God of War as a reference, he might be able to make a more advanced mecha.

"Have you two heard of the Soldier Demon God?"

Gongshu Chou said uncertainly: "Is the soldier demon god Chi You is talking about, General Gongsun?"

"Exactly."

After receiving Gongsun Ce's affirmative answer, Master Ban and Gongshu Chou both showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.

Master Ban and Gongshu Chou looked at each other, then Gongshu Chou shook his head, and Master Ban naturally took over the conversation.

“As far as I know, all the schools of thought have records about the Battle of Zhuolu, but only my Mohist school and the Gongshu school have records about the military demon god.

It is said that Chi You's eighty-one brothers with copper heads and iron foreheads were actually bronze giants, terrible weapons of war made by Chi You, who was good at making weapons and could destroy everything.

These giants were called Bingmo Shen. However, after the Battle of Zhuolu, Huangdi successfully destroyed eighty Bingmo Shen with the help of Jiutian Xuannu.

Only the last one has incredible power and cannot be destroyed, so it was sealed in Loulan by the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens. I have always thought it was just a legend. "

Gongsun Ce shook his head and said, "Legends are often exaggerated facts. The Soldier Demon God is in Loulan. If we can obtain the Soldier Demon God, perhaps what you two want to build will have a basis for verification.

However, Loulan is far away in the vast desert and is difficult to reach. You two need to think of more ways."

Gongshu Chou and Master Ban looked at each other and nodded. They were going to work so hard!

Gongsun Ce slapped his forehead after he finished speaking, "I almost forgot something important..."

Gongsun Ce briefly explained the production process of bamboo paper. Gongshu Chou brushed his beard and smiled, "This is easy. My people can complete it. In four months, General Gongsun can come to inspect the goods."

After explaining the matter of bamboo paper, Gongsun Ce returned to the Taiwei Mansion and began to prepare for the caravan to the Western Regions.

In the study of the Taiwei Mansion, Madam Mingzhu, Zi Nu and Xue Ji were studying the route map.

The Hu merchants who risked their lives to cross the desert and reach the Central Plains basically relied on camels to find their way, and they had no idea the specific route.

Therefore, Gongsun Ce could only draw a simple route map based on the descriptions of these Hu merchants and bought their camels.

Madam Mingzhu, Zi Nu and Xue Ji sat in front of a huge map of the Western Regions. The map outlined the contours of mountains and rivers with delicate strokes, but many routes leading deep into the Western Regions were still blurry.

The three of them looked at this unknown territory intently with sharp eyes, and discussed various matters concerning organizing a caravan to go to the Western Regions.

Zi Nu was the first to break the silence. She pointed to a blank area on the map and said in a deep voice, "Look here, everyone. The description of this area on the map is very brief, and there is not even a clear route indication.

I think that before we form a caravan, we must first send out a pathfinder to conduct a detailed survey of this unknown area."

Mrs. Mingzhu nodded in agreement.

She gently stroked the edge of the map and said thoughtfully, "Sister Zi Nu is right. The Western Region is vast and boundless, with very different customs and people. If you don't know the route clearly and rush forward rashly, you may encounter many dangers."

Xue Ji believes that direct exploration is the fundamental solution to the problem.

She stood up, walked to the map, and pointed to a road leading deep into the Western Regions.

"Why don't we just go along this path and try to overcome the obstacles we encounter, and we can still reach our destination, right?"

Zi Nu smiled slightly, shook her head and said, "Miss Xue Ji, although your idea is brave, it is a bit too risky.

The Western Region is full of dangers. Without adequate preparation and detailed planning, we will probably get into trouble."

Madam Mingzhu also agreed, "Sister Zi Nu is right. We can't just act blindly out of passion. We must first explore the way and ensure the safety of the caravan."

The three of them fell into a brief silence, all thinking about how to explore the route effectively.

Madam Mingzhu was the first to break the silence. She proposed a specific plan: "I think we can explore the way in batches. First, select a group of people to go to the nearest oasis for investigation. From the people in the oasis, we can learn about the dangers of the desert and also inquire from them about the routes to other countries."

Zi Nu listened to Madam Mingzhu's suggestion and added, "Madam Mingzhu's suggestion is very thoughtful. In the process of exploring the road, we should also leave obvious marks so that subsequent caravans can follow smoothly.

I suggested that we could use poplar trees as a sign, which are drought-tolerant, fast-growing and easy to identify.”

Xue Ji listened to their suggestions and nodded in agreement, "Since we have decided on the exploration plan, we should act as soon as possible.

However, there is a problem. We have a limited number of camels, and it is difficult to transport a large number of people into the desert.

Moreover, the desert is extremely dangerous, and it is difficult to go far without a guard and a guide who is familiar with the desert."

Madam Mingzhu and Zi Nu both nodded in agreement.

Gongsun Ce pushed the door open and walked in. "Guides are easy to find, and guards will arrive soon. But if anyone dies, remember to pay the pension."

The three women nodded. Gongsun Ce’s suggestion was very important. They would spend a fortune on horse bones. Once others confirmed the fact of the high pension, the exploration team would definitely not be short of manpower in a short time.

"Crack, click..."

Suddenly, a slight cracking sound was heard in Gongsun Ce's ears. Gongsun Ce walked out of the study, and Xiao Mimi was standing outside the study with a helpless look on her face.

The python eggs tied to its body were cracking, a sign that they were about to hatch.

Tiny cracks gradually appeared on the eggshell. These cracks were like tiny rivers, winding across the surface of the eggshell.

As the cracks increased, the eggshell began to make a faint sound.

At first the sound was like distant thunder, low and far away, but as time went on, it gradually became clearer and louder.

Finally, with a crisp sound, the eggshell cracked completely and a black shadow jumped out of it.

This is a pure black snake with wings on its back.

Its body is slender and flexible, like a black ribbon fluttering in the air.

When the wings are spread, they look like two huge black wings, giving people a mysterious and majestic feeling.

The body of the viper that has just left the eggshell is still very small.

But it showed amazing vitality. It twisted its body and ate its eggshell bite by bite with its tender little mouth.

Although the process was difficult, Gongsun Ce felt that it tasted very delicious.

However, Gongsun Ce couldn't understand why a python could hatch from its egg?

However, Gongsun Ce recalled the story of the dragon giving birth to nine sons, and it seemed that these mythical creatures really had no reproductive isolation.

"Ah~"

After eating the eggshells, the snake felt tired. It yawned, curled up, and closed its eyes.

Its breathing gradually became slow and deep, as if the whole world had quieted down. In this silence, it began its first deep sleep.

The sleeping Teng Snake seems to be integrated with the surrounding world.

Its body is constantly changing, and every breath drives the flow of air around it.

Its wings were also trembling slightly, as if absorbing the essence between heaven and earth.

During this process, its body gradually became stronger and more powerful, and its wings became fuller.

Gongsun Ce stretched out his hand and picked up the Teng Snake. The Teng Snake did not resist, but rubbed against Gongsun Ce's hand.

The juvenile forms of these giant beasts are really cute. Gongsun Ce raised his hand and rubbed the head of the Teng Snake, "From today on, your name is Xianyin."

"hiss."

"Little tits!"

Gongsun Ce looked up and saw Gongsun Yan who was having fun, with the cute little dragon still wrapped around Gongsun Yan.

With sufficient food supply, the little dragon's body has grown to the thickness of a bowl, which is just right for mixing with Gongsun Yan, giving Gongsun Yan an inexplicable fierce aura.

The moment the clever little dragon saw the fairy sound in Gongsun Ce's right hand, it immediately left Gongsun Yan, crawled on the ground for a while, then wrapped itself around Gongsun Ce's left arm and hissed at the fairy sound in Gongsun Ce's right hand.

"Hiss, hiss..."

Gongsun Ce could not understand snake language, but he could feel that Qiao Xiaolong's words must be very dirty and his tone was quite unfriendly.

Sure enough, after Qiao Xiaolong's attack, Xianyin woke up. Even though Xianyin was not as big as Qiao Xiaolong, it did not swallow its anger.

Xianyin spread her wings, flew into the air and pounced on Qiao Xiaolong. Seeing this, Qiao Xiaolong quickly broke away from Gongsun Ce's arms and landed on the ground.
