Chapter 416 Haotian was cut
Although he had been mentally prepared during the day, he still sighed when he saw the dilapidated environment in the Mechanical Institute.
It was just a big, shabby yard with not many people inside.
As soon as the father entered the room, he called out, "Lao Tong, Lao Tong, someone is coming."
Then Tai's father pulled Bai Tian into the yard. "The yard is a little run-down, but it's spacious. There's nothing we can do. Our Mechanical Engineering School can't compare to other schools, so we can't get much help."
After entering the courtyard, I looked around during the day. It was indeed spacious, with many rooms. However, the rooms were cluttered with things, making them look messy.
A white-haired old man hunched over and walked out of the room, coughing weakly: "What are you shouting about? He's not dead."
The father immediately reminded loudly: "Old Tong, there is a new person here, and he wants to join our Mechanical Engineering Department."
The white-haired old man stood up straight instantly, his old eyes staring straight at Bai Tian, then looked at Nu Ying and Tai Xi behind him, his eyes shining: "Three?"
"Just me and my sister." Bai Tian smiled lightly.
This old boy is actually a master of cultivation, and his power fluctuations are much stronger than Tai's father.
Of course, Bai Tian was not very clear about the current power division, and he had no way of confirming the other party's realm.
A smile instantly blossomed on Lao Tong's aged face, and he excitedly jumped over: "What's your name? Where are you from? What's your father's name? Is your mother dead..."
"Ahem, Old Tong, what are you saying?" Taifu reminded him dissatisfiedly, "They came from Qingcheng."
Lao Tong was immediately disappointed: "He's not a local."
The father obviously knew what Lao Tong was thinking. He said calmly, "It's good to have someone here. What else do you want? Hurry up and register. Young man, let me make it clear that after registration, you will stay in our Mechanical Institute for at least two months and you must work."
"Of course, our work in the Mechanical Engineering Department is a bit tough, but we won't let you go hungry."
With a smile during the day: "Can I take a look first?"
"Okay, okay." Tai's father turned around and said to Tai Xi, "Tai Xi, take them to have a look. Just don't touch anything."
Tai Xi did not dare to disobey, and took Bai Tian and Nvying inside.
Lao Tong sighed in the background: "Young people nowadays are really impatient..."
Taixi took Bai Tian and Nuying to a house. There were many things inside, all of which were small inventions, or to be more precise, wooden models.
There are actually quite a variety of them. Some look like birds, some look like bicycles, and some look like furniture.
However, these are limited to models, and even if these things are made, they are not very useful.
For Jiuzhou now, these things can't bring any benefits. It's far worse than making a good bow and arrow...
The chairman said perfunctorily, "These are the achievements of the Mechanical Institute. The most famous one is actually the waterwheel in the north of Jicheng, which can drive water into Jicheng."
Nuying was very curious. She had only taken a quick glance during the day and asked softly, "Is the Mechanical Engineering Department always so sparsely populated?"
The chairman nodded. "Yes. In Jicheng, the Mechanical Institute has actually been around for a long time. There used to be a lot of people there, but they all left."
"Researching these things is actually useless. At most, it's just for fun. The Weaponry Academy, the Alchemy Academy, and even the Physical Education Academy are all better than here."
"Oh, by the way, I heard they said that we actually have an academy in Jiuzhou, but Jicheng doesn't have one. Only Yuancheng and Yancheng have them. I heard that the academy mainly studies basic sciences. I don't understand what science is."
It made sense, as machines were completely useless for cultivation. And it was obvious that what they were researching here were just basic machines, which were even more useless.
If it were an agricultural civilization, machinery would be very useful. But now that we are a cultivation civilization, machinery cannot replace cultivation...
Bai Tian asked again: "Master Tai, do you have any powerful weapons in Jicheng? For example, magic weapons?"
"I don't know." Tai Xi shook his head. "Anyway, I haven't seen it, so maybe it is. But I tell you, many people's weapons are actually very powerful. I can't say they can really reach the level of the magic weapons in the "Cultivation Code", but at least they are much stronger than before."
"What is the 'Cultivation Code'?" Nuying interrupted.
The audience was stunned. "You don't know? No way! The Cultivation Code is in every city in Jiuzhou. Anyone who practices cultivation must first read the code. The Cultivation Code contains everything, from how cultivation originated to the future conception of cultivation, and so on. It contains a lot of interesting things from the past."
As he spoke, Tai Xi suddenly became excited, "Let me tell you, I recently discovered a loophole in the code, it's about Haotian."
"Oh?" Bai Tian was slightly surprised. "What loophole?"
The host raised his head proudly: "I am sure that Haotian is a woman!"
puff!
Nv Ying couldn't help laughing, and Bai Tian's cheeks twitched. "Why do you say that?"
The Tai Xi said with a smug look on his face, "Think about it, how could someone as powerful as Haotian have no descendants? Taichu Fuxi still has descendants, but Haotian doesn't. Either Haotian was castrated, or he is a woman who can't have children."
Um? ?
What kind of logic is this!
Bai Tian's face was full of black lines, and Nv Ying smiled even more happily: "Yes, I think you are right, Haotian must have been cut off down there, hehe..."
As he was speaking, Tai's father came in from outside. Tai Xi immediately put away his smile and looked timid and silly again.
The father came over and kindly introduced to Bai Tian the structure of the machines, gear transmission, lever principle, etc., which they had actually studied.
Such familiar knowledge made Bai Tian feel as if he had returned to the era hundreds of years ago before the time travel, and the vague memories began to churn again.
But I am also aware during the day that these things don’t seem to be of much use at the moment.
In the era of cultivation, the demand for food, clothing, housing and transportation will be greatly reduced, and even the desire to have children will be greatly reduced, especially in the era of pursuing immortality.
No matter how good the mechanical equipment is, it cannot be stronger than the power of a master.
It’s no wonder that the Taiwanese think that studying machinery is useless, and it would be better to study how to make better weapons.
However, the emergence of the School of Mechanical Engineering made Bai Tian realize the perfection of Kyushu's education system.
Regardless of whether it's useful or not, at least people are researching it. Maybe it will be useful in the future?
At the same time, Bai Tian also had to think about whether industry was necessary in the future of the cultivation era.
Basic industries are definitely still needed, and industrial support is definitely needed for clothing, housing, and transportation. However, is it possible that this industry can be combined with spiritual energy?
As Taifu was introducing the system, Bai Tian couldn't help but interrupt, "Is it possible to infuse the power of our cultivation into the mechanical device we're researching, and thus achieve our goal?"
Taifu was stunned and sighed: "What you are talking about is actually similar to the research direction of refining equipment. We have also studied it, but in fact, it is not very useful. We still have to consider external forces."
"Is it possible to find an energy source that can replace the power of true qi, such as natural spiritual energy or spiritual stones?"
As soon as these words came out, Tai's father's face turned strange, and he said in a low voice: "You'd better not think in this direction, it will kill people..."
