Chapter 0216 The Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth!

The Bell and Drum Tower is a flat-topped pyramid-shaped building and can no longer be called a building.

The function of this building is to distinguish seasons, calculate time, and report time to tribes.

Therefore, Ye Qing changed its name to the rooftop.

The efficiency is high. One thousand people start construction, and the rooftop has been completed in more than ten days.

The built rooftop is twenty meters high.

For Ye Qing, who is used to modern high-rise buildings, this height is nothing.

But in Ye Qing's eyes, the rooftop is still an amazing building.

Just looking at the regular appearance, it is very consistent with his personality.

The entire rooftop is clear and angular, with four squares and four straights.

There are four slopes, each slope with a straight step extending to the top of the platform.

The steps are also very wide, only five meters long.

On both sides of the steps, Ye Qing also built two brick guardrails that were as tall as chest and high as the stairs.

The platform on the top still surrounds the platform, and a circle of chest-high city walls with warblers are built.

The entire building, including the platform on the top, was covered with blue bricks.

Therefore, the color of the entire building's appearance is blue-black, making the entire rooftop appear more solemn and heavy.

Looking at this rooftop, Ye Qing felt a sense of accomplishment.

Not easy!

In this primitive era when productivity was low, he was proud to build such a magnificent building while ensuring that the tribe had sufficient food and all the tribes could eat.

And for the tribe members, such a huge building is even more amazing.

Spectacular!

Perfect!

sacred!

...

All the praises that all the tribe members could imagine were used on this building.

Tutai is the most popular building for tribes in this era.

Each tribe has altars.

However, the height of the altars of each tribe is very limited, and it can be higher than that of a hut, which is very impressive.

And how tall can a hut be?

Even if it is calculated from the ground to the highest ridge, it is only a height of four or five meters.

The rooftop that is now displayed in front of the tribe is twenty meters high, four or five times higher than the altars of each tribe.

This is enough to shock them.

Another thing is that the rooftop is paved with blue bricks. After careful decoration, it is extremely rules. It is completely exposed to the altar of each tribe. It is not the same as the altar, and it is many times more beautiful in appearance.

Looking at such a rooftop, the tribe members were not only excited, but also excited.

They are glad that they can join a powerful tribe like the Fengfeng clan, and fortunately they are proud to have created such a magnificent wonder!

Of course, the one who is most excited is the witches from various tribes.

This building with an altar shape is similar to that of an altar. In their eyes, they naturally feel a sense of intimacy. Most of these are already old witches, and their eyes are moist.

Because of relocation to the Fangfeng tribe, he lost a lot of his voice and was slightly relieved.

They already know that their future workplace is in the ancestral temple.

The architectural style of the ancestral temple is similar to that of this rooftop. When they see this rooftop, they also see the grandeur of the ancestral temple.

What else would they be dissatisfied with if they could hold sacrifices on such a magnificent altar in the future?

The rooftop has been constructed, but the buildings on the rooftop have not been built yet.

However, the buildings on the rooftop are useless because there are too many people.

Building buildings on the rooftop requires technology and construction skills. Therefore, Ye Qing asked most of the 1,000 tribe members to switch to building ancestral temples.

The building where copper bells are installed is installed and Ye Qing designed it as a pavilion.

This is a hexagonal pavilion.

However, unlike the pavilion built in modern parks, Ye Qing did not plan to use wood in this pavilion.

The entire pavilion covers an area and is a circle with a radius of two meters.

Starting from the ground, six thick square pillars are built with blue bricks. When the height is four meters, an arch is built between the two adjacent pillars.

This vault has a span of two meters.

The tribe members naturally did not know how to build a new way of vault, so Ye Qing taught them step by step.

Ye Qing first used scaffolding to build a vault-shaped template, and then laid bricks on the arc-shaped wooden board.

After the blue bricks were built and the plaster was dried, the scaffolding and formwork were removed and a vault was built.

Looking at the repaired vault, the guy who changed from a stonemason to a mason, his eyes were straightened.

"It's incredible!"

"Why doesn't the vault collapse? Why don't the bricks on it fall off?"

He could not understand why the vault could exist firmly without collapse.

He was too talkative and didn't understand, so he immediately asked Ye Qing.

"This..."

How to explain it to gravel?

Ye Qing didn't know what to say, so that Li could understand it.

It is naturally the simplest to explain from a mechanical perspective.

But, to primitive people who don’t know a single word, explain the principles of mechanics?

I'm afraid it's not Shi Lezhi!

He explained:

"There is a door where two people can go in at the same time, and three people will be crowded. If six people go in at the same time, then one person can't go in at the same time. Why?

"People are squeezed!"

"The same goes for this vault. The bricks are built into arc shapes, and each brick wants to fall off, but because there are too many bricks, they can't fall off even if they are squeezed together!"

Ye Qing patiently explained to Li.

Li is a very excellent guy. Ye Qing has always been patient in cultivating outstanding talents.

After these people are trained, they will be their own good helpers!

He hopes that the more talents such as this, the better. With more talents, he doesn’t need to do anything by himself.

How great it is to win on your own!

Who is willing to work hard to win if you can do it?

Unfortunately, there are still too few talents who can stand alone and help me share my work.

I can't lie down even if I want to.

The vault between the two pillars was built, and the next top priority was to build the large dome of the entire pavilion.

The scaffolding is still first installed, the semi-spherical formwork is installed, and then bricks are laid.

The construction of a dome is similar to a brick kiln, but it is different from a brick kiln.

The brick kiln is layered with a gradual ceiling, and the bricks are flat, and the built dome looks like an inverted stairs.

The masonry of the dome is built with bricks perpendicular to the sphere, and the built dome is smooth.

After the dome is built, it is much simpler to build a roof above the dome that facilitates the discharge of rain.

Because the building is too high, Ye Qing used bronze castings on the top of the center of the pavilion, and six copper wires passed through the inside of six pillars, connecting the castings and the ground.

This is to prevent lightning.

Of course, for the sake of beauty, Ye Qing also carefully shaped the appearance of this bronze casting.

This bronze casting is in the shape of a multi-layer pagoda. Ye Qing also named it...

The mysterious yellow and exquisite pagoda of heaven and earth!
