Chapter 608: What a big Kongming lantern (2)
The rattan, cowhide, silk, coal, stove, rope, silk thread, were connected to a night of sewing, weaving, and designing. Early the next morning, before the eunuch who came to greet the palace, something extremely strange in the eyes of Zhang Chuchu and Xiaoyi appeared.
A rattan basket with a stove and more than two people can ride, a huge stitched cowhide that can cover the entire house, and several ropes that can be said to be the strongest, tied the cowhide to the edge of the basket with multiple corners.
What is this?
When Liu Yi was stretching and yawning, he stood up, Zhang Chuchu and the maid Xiaoyi, who had been waiting for the night, opened their big eyes and came over curiously, touched the basket and pulled the cowhide. He didn't know why their master didn't sleep all night and made such a thing happen.
"Husband, is this?" I had never seen such a strange figure before. After exploring it for no reason, Zhang Chuchu couldn't help but ask Liu Yi.
"Hot air balloon!" Little crossed his legs and drank the hot tea handed over by Xiao Yiduan. Liu Yi looked down at the crude hot air balloon in the yard that he had driven out overnight, and said to his wife: "Well, it is a kind of craftsmanship that can take people to fly."
"Flying?" Zhang Chuchu looked at the cowhide basket on the ground with suspicion, walked slowly towards Liu Yi, and asked in a confused voice: "Just relying on these things, can people fly out of thin air and soar up?"
How is this possible?
Some rattans, a few ropes, several cowhides, and some stoves for burning fire can be brought to the sky with these things? Zhang Chuchu and Xiao Yi, the maid next to him, all looked suspicious and disbelief. This is even more ridiculous than someone telling them that someone has wings flying.
Fortunately, Zhang Chuchu knew that their husband had some abilities that ordinary people could not achieve. While he was surprised and confused, he did not question whether Liu Yi was as sane as usual. However, Xiaoyi, the girl, was different. After hearing what their hometown said, he intuitively reacted that his master had not slept all night and was a little tired. He wanted to look up the forehead of his master to see if he had high fever, but he was afraid of the normal majesty of his master. He still stood beside him obediently, looking at the basket on the ground, and the cowhide that had been kneaded into a ball by the master and tucked in the basket.
These things cost almost ten cents of silver to add up, right?
Calculating the cost of the hot ball, Xiaoyi, the girl, couldn't help but feel ache. Even if she had some spare money in the mansion now, she couldn't waste it like this. For some strange thoughts of the master, she gave away almost a cow. In fact, she looked up and looked at their master carefully. Xiaoyi removed the word "expendable" and sighed in her heart, thinking, "It's really, it's very wasteful."
"Yes!" After another sip of strong tea, Liu Yikeng said, "It's not difficult to have this thing on the ground, rise up, sway up, and wander between heaven and earth!"
Flying without wings and wandering in the world, before there was no plane, it was once a dream for many people. Turning his head to look at the two girls, Chuchu and Xiaoyi, Liu Yi thought proudly, if the wise king of Li Shimin knew about the existence of such a thing, I wonder what kind of expression would it be?
"Can you fly now, Master?" Seeing that their master had not woken up yet, he was talking nonsense, Xiaoyi couldn't help but interrupt and stimulated their master in a low voice.
"Now," Liu Yi looked down at the crude and simple hot air balloon on the ground. He felt a little unsure, and he inevitably lacked some confidence in his words, saying: "Okay, that's OK..."
The purpose of making this "hot air balloon" is to fool Li Shimin, a wise wise ruler for all ages, arouse some excitement, and make him expect more of himself. As for whether this so-called "hot air balloon" can really carry people, Liu Yi didn't have much consideration.
After all, compared to those professional hot air balloons, the one produced by Liu Yiu now is not even amateur. Whether it is materials, work, structure, or some necessary safety, control, and technology, there are all defects in one kind or another. When the fire catches, there are still some problems whether it can fly, let alone take off by manned air.
"Why do you think of making such a thing?" Seeing the embarrassment of his husband, Zhang Chuchu stepped forward and patted Liu Yi and asked him softly.
"It's nothing, it's just fun," he laughed and covered up the question just now. Liu Yi stood up and walked to the hot air balloon and said, "Now, the sky has just brightened and the sun has not yet risen. It's the best time to let the wind take off. Xiaoyi, go and get some fire and light the stove in the basket. Well, remember not to put too much carbon fire in it."
In this small courtyard in his own small courtyard, Liu Yi bent down and stretched out his hand, spread the tightly sewn cowhide cloth, exposed the stove in the basket, and opened the sound of the sound of Xiaoyi looking aside, saying, "In a moment, the master will let you see how this thing flew straight into the sky."
"Yes, Master!" Xiao Yi looked at their master with suspicion, and obediently went to the kitchen, took some ignition objects, and was busy igniting the fire.
"Madam, go to the study to get some pens and ink, and write some words on this hot air balloon for your husband." Looking at the giant cowhide spread flat on the ground and this big basket that was not a small thing, Liu Yixin thought about it, so he opened his voice and ordered Zhang Chuchu.
Those who ride on the righteousness of heaven and earth, control the debate of the six qi, and travel infinity are the freedom.——Fengjie Liu Yifan's word
He picked up the pen and picked the ink, and the ugly regular characters in one hand were written on a small, inconspicuous tiny rattan at the bottom of the basket. Each character was as big as an ant, and it was far away and could not be seen at all.
"Mr. Zhuang Zhou's "Xiaoyaoyou"," he saw the source of this sentence at a glance. Zhang Chuchu held the inkstone and looked at the words written by Liu Yi. Seeing the last sign, he asked in confusion: "Husband is this..."
"Stamp a seal and keep a font size," Looking at his masterpiece with satisfaction, Liu Yi raised his hand and placed the brush on the inkstone, and replied softly: "Stop this thing flying next to you and being occupied by others in a while, it will be difficult to ask for it."
"Uh?" Is this really the case? Zhang Chuchu shook his head slightly. If this is the case, why should these words be written so hidden? Knowing what official his husband is selling, Zhang Chuchu looked up at his husband in anger, put away his pen and ink, turned around and went to the study again.
"Ah! It's bulging, madam, come and see, this cloth bag is actually bulging?!" Not long after entering the study, before he had put the pen and inkstone in his hand, Zhang Chuchu heard Xiao Yi screaming outside, so he quickly turned around, left the door, and arrived in the yard.
So big!
This was the first feeling when Zhang Chuchu saw the bulging thing in front of her. It was covered in the sky and was more than ten meters high, covering the small courtyard of their house completely.
What's going on? How could this cowhide cloth bag bulge so well? And, that basket, that basket, why does it seem like it is going to float up?
With his mouth open and his face was disbelief, Zhang Chuchu slowly walked to Liu Yiu, hugged his husband's arm, and looked up in surprise. Could this thing really be like the husband said, can you take people to travel in the nine heavens?
"It's flying, it's flying, it's really flying! Master, madam, look, this ball really flew up!" Clapping his hands and looking at the hot air balloons gradually flying out of the yard, Xiao Yi looked at their master with admiration, with eager eyes.
"This is like..." Looking at the things in the sky, Zhang Chuchu felt very familiar, murmured in her little mouth, saying, "Why is it like a Kongming lantern? Well, a large Kongming lantern..."
"This is just the beginning..." Liu Yi hugged his arms, looked up at the sky, and watched the rough hot air balloon he had made gradually fade away, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, bringing a different smile.
"Master, it's flying far away, won't we chase it?" After a while, the hot air balloon had flew out of the three of them. Seeing the strange treasure disappearing, Xiaoyi's heart began to become a little anxious, and she said to Liu Yi anxiously.
"What are you going to pursue it?" Liu Yiu-sharp shook his head lightly and said, "Master, I will enter the palace to teach the three little princes as soon as possible. How can you and your wife go out to pursue it? Besides, this kind of thing is not a treasure. If you want it in the future, I will do it again. Let it go first!"
"The masters of several families spent ten cents of silver. How could they say they didn't want it?..." muttered vaguely, and he had a master who was willing to spend money. Xiao Yi, a maid, could not do so. He could only complain a little in his heart.
