Chapter 361 The Organ

"What's the matter, why do you have to get Yuanzi and the others drunk?"

Qin Feng looked at Miao Liuzhi with some dissatisfaction, and said, "Old Miao, their brothers are all my relatives, and even big things can be said in front of them..."

As early as when he was drinking, Qin Feng could tell that Miao Liuzhi deliberately got his brothers drunk. With this old fox's method, Li Tianyuan and the others were still thinking about Miao Liuzhi after drinking too much.

"Master Qin, it's not that I can't trust them, it's that they are too young."

Miao Liuzhi shook his head and said, "If they have the heart of Master Qin, then they can talk about anything, but they are not as good, the best way is to let them know less."

"Okay, old Miao, don't be so mysterious, what is it?"

Qin Feng frowned when he heard the words. Although he knew that Miao Liuzhi was right, he still felt a little uncomfortable talking about Li Tianyuan and others in front of his face.

"Master Qin, among the eight sects outside the Jianghu, which one do you think will be lost today?" Miao Liuzhi didn't mention the main topic, but asked Qin Feng carefully.

"Old Miao, what do you mean?"

Qin Feng was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and said: "Thieves, Qianmen, whores and killers, these four must exist, and Wumen has also been heard in the Northeast, but they are all witches and witches who dance to the gods, and they are not great. .

As for Gu sect, it is deeply rooted in the two provinces of Yunchuan, and the inheritance must have never been broken. The illusion school created by the woman in red in the Eastern Han Dynasty is now mostly acrobatic troupes traveling in the rivers and lakes, and the inheritance can be regarded as continuing. "

Speaking of this, Qin Feng frowned slightly, thought for a while before continuing: "If you say that the most likely to be lost, it may be a mechanism...

Although today's carpenters regard Lu Ban as their ancestor, what they have learned is only the skills of making furniture. As you know, Lao Miao, the ancestor worshiped by the organ door is actually Zu Chongzhi from the Southern and Northern Dynasties..."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

After hearing Qin Feng's words, Miao Liuzhi frowned, and his face showed shock. He had never heard of the saying that Zu Chongzhi was the patriarch of the organ sect, because in his time, craftsmen all over the world respected Lu Ban Grandpa's.

"In the past dynasties, the court has killed the most trap doors. In the era you lived in, the skills of trap doors may have been lost."

What Qin Feng said are all the secrets of the Outer Eight Sects. Although Miao Liuzhi has a high seniority in the Thief Sect, but the sects are different, he does not know the things in other sects.

"Lao Miao, have you been to the tomb yet?" Qin Feng suddenly asked something irrelevant.

"Master Qin, this... this tomb robbery is also a branch of the robbery family."

Old Miao Liuzhi blushed, and his words were left and right. He came from a family of thieves, how could he not think about the wealth in the tombs when he was in distress?

In the 40s and [-]s, Miao Liuzhi went to Beijing to assassinate Li San, the swallow. His daily expenses, in addition to the daily pilfering, a large part of it was obtained from the nearby imperial tombs of the Qing Dynasty.

"Old Miao, I'm not a policeman, what's wrong with admitting it?"

Seeing Miao Liuzhi's expression, Qin Feng couldn't help laughing out loud, the old fellow also knew that the tomb robbers would not be able to stand in the arena.

You must know that the ancients have always followed the teaching that death is the greatest and peace is peace in the earth.

In ancient times, tomb robbers were even more shameful than thieves and prostitutes. Miao Liuzhi, who had always claimed to be the authentic descendant of the robber family, was naturally embarrassed to admit those things.

"Master Qin, why are you asking this?" Miao Liuzhi blushed from Qin Feng's smile, but her heart became more and more curious.

Qin Feng smiled but did not answer, and continued to ask: "Lao Miao, since you have been to the tomb, do you know what era is the most difficult to steal?"

"The tombs of the Sui and Tang Dynasties are the most difficult to rob, and there are many traps inside..." Miao Liuzhi thought for a while, and then said, "Comparatively speaking, the tombs of the Han Dynasty before that were actually better."

"That's right, although the Han Dynasty Tomb also has organs, but the production is relatively crude, and it is easy to decipher."

Qin Feng nodded his head when he heard the words. Most of the tombs in the Han Dynasty and the Eastern and Western Jin Dynasties were built on the hillside, and most of them used some broken dragon stones to block the tomb robbers. Small and exquisite organs are very rare.

"Old Miao, Zu Chongzhi is a genius. In addition to his achievements in mathematics, astronomy, geology, and geography, his most exquisite skill is actually mechanism..."

Most of the world's understanding of Zu Chongzhi can be summed up in one sentence by a mathematician, just like Zu Chongzhi was the first person to accurately measure pi to seven digits. This achievement has had a great impact on the world.

But in fact, many people don't know that Zu Chongzhi is also a master of machine mechanics.

Zu Chongzhi once made a car with machinery in it and a wooden dummy on it. Before the car drove, the wooden dummy's finger pointed to the south. No matter how the car turned, the wooden dummy's hand always pointed to the south.

This kind of car called the guide car is very famous in history.

According to legend, in ancient times, the Yellow Emperor used a compass car to identify the direction when he fought against Chi You, and others imitated it many times, but they were all lost. Even today, modern people still cannot decipher the principle of the compass car.

When Zu Chongzhi was an official under Qi Gaodi Xiao Daocheng, he not only made a compass car, but also made things such as a water mill, a thousand-mile boat, etc., and had in-depth research on various machinery.

But what the world doesn't know is that Zu Chongzhi was also responsible for the construction of Tai'an Mausoleum, the mausoleum of Emperor Qi Gao, Xiao Daocheng, and all the organs and pins in the tomb were taken out of his hands.

In the process of building the mausoleum, Zu Chongzhi brought out a large number of apprentices, and it was these people who formed the organ gate in the future, so they also worshiped Zu Chong as the patriarch.

However, due to the particularity of the skill, the mechanism door has been the most valued by the emperors in all dynasties but also the most suspected existence by the emperors. Almost every time a dynasty is changed, the mechanism door of the current dynasty will be cleaned again.

Everyone can guess the reason, that is, all the institutions in the emperor's tombs were made by people in the institutions.

In order to prevent the secrets from leaking out, the craftsmen who built the tombs may be spared, but the people who participated in the construction of the tombs by the mechanism door must surely die.

With the change of dynasties in this way, there are fewer and fewer people in the organ sect, and the inheritance was almost broken several times. It was not until Zhang Sanfeng integrated the outer eight sects in the early Ming Dynasty that the organ sect was able to prosper a little.

But as soon as Zhang Sanfeng left, the outer eight sects fell apart again. There were many fatuous emperors in the Ming Dynasty, and the fate of this organ sect was once again controlled by them.

From the Ming to the Qing dynasties, the members of the organ sect were kept in captivity by the royal family, and it was difficult for outsiders to get in touch with them. Dozens of imperial tombs were built, and countless heads were lost.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, there was no news about the secret door anymore in the world, so even Miao Liuzhi didn't know much about the secret door, and thought Lu Ban was his ancestor.

Qin Feng was also born in the main sect of the Outer Eight Schools, so he knows so much about these things. As far as he knows, if there is a broken inheritance in the Outer Eight Schools today, the fault must be the organ sect.

"Old Miao, did you meet someone in the trap door? Why did you ask these questions?"

After Qin Feng and Miao Liuzhi talked about the origin of some trap doors, Qin Feng looked at him with some doubts. As far as Qin Feng knew, even Master Zai had never been in contact with trap doors. It is possible that Miao Liuzhi touched him arrive?

"Master Qin, I don't go out all day, how can I see the people in the trap door?" Miao Liuzhi shook his head and said: "But I have seen the craftsmanship in the trap door recently, old man, I feel ashamed. "

"The craftsmanship of trap doors?" Qin Feng was taken aback when he heard the words, and said, "Old Miao, don't think about it if you don't have money to spend. Did you go to rob graves?"

The most common craftsmanship of mechanism doors is naturally the emperor's tomb, so Qin Feng had such a reaction.

"Tomb robbery? I can't even dig the soil now, which family's tomb should I rob?"

Miao Liuzhi shook his head repeatedly, turned his ears sideways to listen to the snoring from the left and right rooms, then lowered his voice, and said, "Master Qin, in this courtyard, there is a secret room built by someone in the trap door!"

"What?" Qin Feng, who was originally sitting on a chair, suddenly stood up with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

It was common for rich families to build secret rooms to store treasures.

Even some wealthy owners in the countryside would make interlayers in the walls. When local tyrants were divided up their fields, gold bars were often found in the walls of those landlords' homes.

However, it is a bit appalling to be able to use the people in the trap door used by the royal family to make the secret room. You must know that although the people in the trap door are not of high status, they are not something ordinary people can control.

Qin Feng might not be surprised to say that there is a secret room with a locked door in the Forbidden City not far from the next door, but Qin Feng is surprised that there is such a secret room in this house.

"Old Miao, will you admit your mistake?"

Qin Feng took a deep breath and said: "Some skilled craftsmen can also make some mechanism pins, and it is not necessarily the work of people in the mechanism door."

"Master Qin, if it was a secret room built by ordinary people, the old man would have already entered."

Miao Liuzhi shook his head and said, "Although I found the door of this tomb, I can't unlock the lock. Besides the person who locked the door, who else can make the old man helpless?"

As he spoke, Miao Liuzhi opened his palms. Under the light, Qin Feng found that Miao Liuzhi's palms and ten finger pads were densely covered with various traces.

If you look carefully, there are traces of skin and flesh sinking in. There are long strips, rings, triangles, and U shapes, and there are even some deep pits. Judging from the depth, they should be sunken into the bones.

The color of all the traces on the palm is almost the same as the color of the flesh, but the two hands are different, and the edges are smooth and the distribution is regular, which seems to be printed on purpose.
"Master Qin, the first thing you need to learn to steal the door is to open the lock. This is the price I paid for learning to open the lock!"

Miao Liuzhi looked at his hands, with a wry smile on his face, and said, "Old Miao, I used to think that there was no lock in this world that I couldn't open, but this time I'm admitting it..."
