The wood lies on the body of the ancient building, suffering the "torture" of nature as it becomes increasingly mottled. Thunder and lightning are most unwilling to wither and die, and will jump down from the clouds and "gnaw" the body of the wood again and again. As a result, the ancient craftsmen used their wisdom to start a series of games in exchange for the survival of the house under thunder and fire.
On the shore of the vast Dongting Lake, stands a thirty-nine-meter-tall, octagonal, seven-story brick tower, which looks particularly tall and straight. The brick pagoda has an octagonal pointed roof, with a dark iron pestle in the middle pointing straight to the sky. The surrounding decorations are all constructed according to its shape, showing the appearance of an eight-sided sandwich. Several iron chains connecting the treasure tops climb along the vertical ridges to the wing corners, meandering down, and finally surrender to the earth in a prostrate posture. It is the Cishi Tower, and it is also the earliest demonstration of the confrontation between the wisdom and thunder and fire of the ancestors of this ancient civilization. It is precisely thanks to the combination of the iron pestle and the iron chain that the ancient pagoda was able to survive countless thunder and fires.
Lightning rods are not a product of modern society, but appeared in the Central Plains more than a thousand years ago! There is such a record in "Zhihuzi": During the Han Dynasty, the Bailiang Palace suffered a fire. A wizard suggested that placing a fishtail-shaped copper tile on the top of the floor could prevent sky fires caused by lightning. The fishtail tiles on the roof actually serve as lightning protection and can be considered the prototype of the lightning rod.
In ancient times when the gods embraced each other, simple science and technology could only take root and sprout amid the doubts of the forefathers only by "turning mountains" around religion. Therefore, the ancestors' avoidance of thunder and lightning followed the civilization of that era and was herded by the river valley waiting for awakening.
In traditional Chinese culture, metaphysics is quite representative, such as the Five Elements and Bagua. In the field of Bagua, the "Zhen" hexagram is "Thunder". After combining the directions, there are "Nanli, Beikan, Dongzhen, Xidi" and "South belongs to Dongque, north belongs to Xuanwu (tortoise and snake)" , the east belongs to the green dragon, and the west belongs to the white tiger".
Therefore, under the "conjecture" of physiognomists and warlocks, the ancients unanimously formed the thinking of "thunder follows the dragon". Since then, the lightning protection facilities that ancestors had to construct and install in order to prevent buildings from being struck by lightning were called "dragon suppression".
As a result, among the extraordinary appearance and appearance of ancient buildings, many lightning protection devices called "dragon suppression" began to grow and multiply on the bodies of ancient Chinese buildings.
For example, the tips of some ancient pagodas in China are often smeared with a metallic film. Then, conductive materials are used to connect directly to the underground core pillars, and the ends of the pillars are connected to the "dragon caves" where metals are stored. connected. This formed a kind of "dragon suppression" in ancient times.
In addition, lightning protection pillars such as the "owls" that stand upright on many ancient towers and palaces, the animal-shaped tile decorations on the roofs, and the so-called "Thunder Pillars" that often stand in tall palaces are all related to the earth. "Dark Tong Style" forms a good conductive channel and becomes an important member of the "Suppressing Dragon Clan".
These are the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient Chinese craftsmen! For thousands of years, our ancestors have used the ultimate ingenuity to interpret simple science into another thrilling appearance. Although it has gone through wind, rain, thunder and lightning, it has remained unchanged for thousands of years!
The "Zhenlong" on the roof of the Imperial Ancestral Temple had been transformed into a gunpowder magazine starting device. Li Zexuan looked up and saw several slender wires drawn from the tile cracks near the roof ridge, all inserted in the into a wooden box on the top!
Although Li Zexuan did not graduate in history in his previous life, he also knew that ancient buildings had lightning protection devices. Moreover, even if he did not know this in his previous life, he still had physical memories in his mind!
So when I saw the several iron wires pulled down from the cracks in the tiles, I thought of the "Zhenlong" on the ridge of the roof used to protect against lightning, and Li Junxian's secret letter stating that "the wind and clouds will change colors and the sky will thunder rolling" tomorrow. At this moment, Li Zexuan understood everything!
Someone wants to trigger a thunder in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. When the sparks generated by the lightning are combined with the sulfur and charcoal in this room, the Imperial Ancestral Temple will probably be doomed!
But will sulfur powder and charcoal powder really explode under the action of electric sparks?
I’m really not sure about this Li Zexuan! After all, these two things are considered flammable substances at best. Li Zexuan himself doesn't know whether they can be ignited by electric sparks! Because he has not done any relevant experiments in modern times!
"Huh? The color of the box on the top seems to be a little different! Is it a coincidence, or does it contain different things?"
At this time, Li Zexuan noticed that the wooden box on the top was slightly lighter in color, and he couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart.
After pondering for a moment, Li Zexuan tapped his toes, lifted off the ground, flew into the air, and flew towards the top box. He saw that the top of the box had been punched with five small holes, which could just fit through five holes. A piece of wire!
Li Zexuan pulled out the iron wire that penetrated the wooden box, then he held the wooden box and returned to the ground. Just when he was about to open the wooden box to find out what was going on, he heard a rush of footsteps outside the Ancestral Temple. His heart moved and he turned around. Welcomed out.
As soon as he walked to the hall opposite the main entrance of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, he saw Li Erlong walking in. Li Zexuan quickly raised his hands and saluted, saying: "See you, Your Majesty!"
Li Er's face was as dark as water, and he said in a bad tone: "Hmph! Marquis Yong'an, you are so brave, you dare to cause trouble in the Ancestral Temple!"
Li Zexuan cupped his hands and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I didn't cause trouble. I came to the Ancestral Temple just to investigate the case!"
"Investigating the case?"
When Li Er heard this, his heart suddenly sank. Things had indeed reached the worst situation he expected. The power of Tianlong Sect had penetrated into the palace! Thinking of this, he asked with an ugly face: "Then what did you find out?"
Li Zexuan was about to speak when his tone suddenly stopped. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Your Majesty, please step aside and go to a place with me!"
Since people like Ande Zhong could be used by the Tianlong Sect, Li Zexuan was really not sure that there were no spies from the Tianlong Sect among Li Er's entourage, so for the sake of safety, he suggested that Li Erping retreat and go with him alone. That special room to the northwest!
Li Er obviously understood this truth. Hearing this, he did not hesitate. He turned around and ordered: "You are all waiting outside. No one can get even half a step closer to this temple without my instructions today!"
"Here~!"
A group of imperial soldiers and several eunuchs who followed Li Erlai all clasped their fists in agreement.
Li Er nodded, then turned to look at Li Zexuan, and said lightly: "Lead the way!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
Li Zexuan responded, turned around and took Li Er with him towards the first room in the northwest.
After a while, the two came to the room where sulfur and charcoal powder were stored. Li Zexuan pointed to the wooden boxes in the room and said to Li Er: "Your Majesty, these boxes were brought here from outside the palace by Chief An. Yes, they are where the Tianlong Sect’s conspiracy lies!”
"You said the Tianlong conspiracy is related to these wooden boxes?"
Li Er's eyes narrowed and he said a little hard to understand.
"That's right!"
Li Zexuan nodded, then pointed to the five iron wires hanging down from the tile cracks near the roof ridge, and said: "Your Majesty, please see, the other ends of these five iron wires are connected to the Zhenlong on the roof ridge, and the other end is It was CHA who entered one of these wooden boxes! Does your Majesty know what is in these wooden boxes?"
