Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1853 God blessed!

"...Your Majesty, this Dragon Mountain is towering, surrounded by mountains on three sides, like a dustpan. The mountains are densely wooded and the environment is quiet. Standing on the top of the main peak, following the sulfur ditch, looking to the east, the entire Taiyuan city It can be seen in the eyes, and the end is a place of beauty and good fortune.

It is said that Zen Master Hongli traveled here and saw five-color bright clouds shining from above the ground. In the bright clouds, there were four boys sitting on the green lotus seat playing games, shaking the earth, and the rock coughed and fell. On the shore collapsed, a statue of Amitabha appeared, and the Three Jin Dynasty paid tribute. After Zen Master Hongli recorded this vision, he reported it to the court and applied to build a temple here, and now there is a Tongzi Temple! "

In the southwest corner of Taiyuan City, Li Tai, Qin Huaiyu, Meng Wenhao, Tiedan and other students from Yanhuang Academy, escorted by the 300 Forbidden Army led by Duguxin, came to the top of Longshan, standing on the top of the mountain, looking towards the east. The panoramic view of Taiyuan City in the morning sun was dazzling, and the guard of the Provincial Government sent by Wang Liaoyuan, at this time, was by Li Tai's side and gave his best explanation.

"Heh~! You know a lot!"

Looking around, Li Tai was extremely satisfied with the environment here. He couldn't help but praise the guard. When the guard heard it, he immediately opened his eyes and smiled: "His Majesty, the youngest is a native of Taiyuan Mansion. He was born here and grew up here. Naturally, I know a little bit more here than others. This Tongzi Temple has been visited quite a bit before it was a small one. Your Highness, you will see the pavilion of Tongzi Temple in front of you, which enshrines the Three Saints of the West!"

Speaking of this, the guard pointed to the north and made a please gesture to Li Tai.

It is a huge Buddhist pavilion with two layers on top and bottom, built against the mountain, and its scale is very magnificent.

Duguxin winked at the left and right. The two bans immediately filed out and rushed towards the Buddhist pavilion to the north. Li Tai didn’t say anything when he saw it. Instead, he stood beside him, quietly waiting for something. .

After a while, a forbidden army quickly ran out from the inside and whispered to Duguxin with a fist, "Teach me General, everything is normal in the temple, and no danger has been found!"

Duguxin nodded, and then winked at Li Tai. Li Tai knew, and said to the guard of the provincial governor's house: "Since you are quite familiar with this place, then come forward and lead the way!"

"Yes! Your Highness!"

The guard clasped his fists and slowly walked towards the temple at Li Tai's left front.

Li Tai and others walked in and found that the temple was composed of the front porch and the main part of the pavilion. The front porch is five rooms wide and one room deep. The width of the front porch is about ten feet, and the depth is about two feet. There are nine eaves columns, all of which are large-scale covered lotus styles, arranged in a north-south direction. The diameter of the covered lotus part of the column base is nearly three feet. , Taiming is made of stone, and the ground is covered with slate, but the Ming Dynasty uses square bricks.

The main body of the Buddhist pavilion is more than ten feet wide and five feet deep, which is more spacious than the front porch. The wall is vertically built with strip stones, and the northern part of the wall is directly built on the natural rock mass. In the middle of the wall, the door will be opened during the day. There is no sculpture on the outside of the wall, and the inside is full of thousands of Buddhas. The images of the thousands of Buddhas are different and spectacular!

In the pavilion, the three western saints-Amitabha, Avalokiteshvara, and Da Shizhi Bodhisattva are carved into the pavilion. The three Buddha statues are towering and tall. They are more than ten feet high. The head of the Buddha is more than two feet high. Can't help being awe-inspiring!

"This pavilion is magnificent. Only with these three Buddha statues and the thousands of Buddha carvings on the stone wall, it can be called a Buddhist holy land. It was abandoned and ruined because of the war in the Central Plains. It is a pity!"

After patrolling the temple, Qin Huaiyu couldn't help but sigh.

Qin Huaiyu's mother believed in Buddhism, and the backyard of the Qin family also built a Buddhist temple. Under the influence of ears and eyes, Qin Huaiyu also had some good feelings for Buddhism, so he sighed!

Hearing that, the rest of them couldn't help but nodded.

In all fairness, although the Tongzi Temple is a bit dilapidated on the surface, the majestic architecture, Buddha statues, and exquisite carvings in the temple all show its former glory and the amount of thought and art that the temple builders spent at that time. Value, in fact, what can the dust in this Buddhist temple conceal?

"It doesn't matter whether it is ruined or splendid. Now that this Buddhist temple can be used by us, it can be regarded as making the best use of it!"

Due to the relatively long time spent with Li Zexuan, a disciple of the Celestial Master and Taoism, Li Tai didn't have a "cold" with Buddhism. After hearing Qin Huaiyu and others sigh with emotion, he was a little disapproving.

"Qing Que, are you planning to...choose here?"

Hearing what Li Tai said, Meng Wenhao's heart moved and asked aloud.

When Li Tai assigned the task in the morning, he thought it would take a lot of time to select the location of the telegraph relay station, but he never expected that just a trip to Longshan, Li Tai would have the intention of finalizing the location. This is too much. Is it going well?

However, although surprised, Meng Wenhao did not relax his vigilance, and did not tell any news about the telegraph relay station, because there was an outsider here—the guard of the provincial governor's house!

It is a matter of the success or failure of the academy’s mission and the safety of the teachers and students of the academy. Any one of them must be more cautious!

"Almost, but before deciding, I have to make certain things!"

Li Tai nodded and responded to Meng Wenhao's. Then he said to the guard of the Provincial Governor's Mansion, "Is there another layer on top of this temple? What is the upper layer?"

The guard hurriedly replied, "Going back to your Highness, I have also been to the small ones on the upper floor. There are just a few Buddhist rooms. There is nothing special. I should be able to live in if I clean up!"

Li Tai nodded and said: "Okay! This king knows! There is nothing to do with you here, you have done a good job, first go down the mountain and return to the city to get the reward from Wang Cishi!"

From beginning to end, he did not ask what the guard of the Provincial Government was called, because for him, he didn't need to know!

"Yes! Thank you, Your Highness!"

The guard was overjoyed and quickly bowed to thank him.

After speaking, he saluted Li Tai and turned down the mountain.

"Go, let's go up and have a look!"

After the guards of the provincial governor's mansion left, Li Tai said to everyone.

Having said that, he raised his foot and wanted to do it, while the forbidden troops around him rushed towards the top of the stairs first. Li Tai didn't think he was disgusted, and led everyone on to the second floor.

Since the first floor of the Buddhist pavilion stands a towering Buddha statue, the height of the first floor is more than ten feet high. It took a lot of effort for everyone to climb the stairs. They came to the second floor of the Buddhist pavilion, and they saw it. There are more than ten rooms, which should be the Zen rooms that the guards of the governor's residence mentioned earlier. Li Tai walked towards one of them at will without pushing the door, because the forbidden army who went upstairs had already helped him open the doors of all the rooms and inspected them. The environment inside.

After entering the Zen room, I saw that there were no special ornaments in the room except candlesticks, incense tables, wooden fish, and futons. Of course, these ornaments were covered with a thick layer of dust, and some of them were still covered with dense cobwebs. Obviously no one has taken care of it for a long time!

Fortunately, Li Tai and others came during the day, and fortunately they had never seen "A Chinese Ghost Story", otherwise they would have thought of the gloomy, desolate and ruined Lanruo Ancient Temple when they saw the scene in front of them!

"General Dugu, as you can see, can Longshan and Tongzi Temple hide soldiers? How many soldiers can they hide?"

The dilapidated scene in front of him did not disappoint Li Tai. He looked at Duguxin beside him and asked.

Facing Li Tai’s inexplicable question, Duguxin thought about it for a moment and understood the key points. He pondered for a moment and replied: "If your Royal Highness intends to choose a site here, first, you can set up a defender at the foot of Longshan. When going up the mountain, the general has already been checked around. This Longshan has only one mountain path up to the top of the main peak. As long as the defenders guard the mountain path, it can ensure that there will be no idlers waiting to go up the mountain. According to the topography at the foot of the mountain, the most Can hold two thousand defenders;

Second, the top of the main peak of Longshan Mountain, the ground is flat, and the south, north, and west sides are surrounded by mountains. Checkpoints can be set at the east gate to prevent fish from slipping through the net. According to the final observation, there are probably two places on the top of the mountain. Hundred defenders

Third, this Buddhist pavilion is built on the mountain. There are many grottoes excavated on the mountain wall. Both the grottoes and the second floor of the Buddhist pavilion can hold soldiers. According to the final estimate, it should be able to accommodate fifty elites! "

Duguxin is worthy of being the commander of the Forbidden Army. His subjective consciousness has always maintained a very high military quality. In the process of climbing and visiting the Buddhist pavilion, he has already figured out the topography and topography of the mountain and under the mountain, even He knew where to hide soldiers and where to set up guards!

Hearing this, Li Tai couldn't help but admire Dugu Xin: "General Dugu is really a military strategy, Tai admire!"

"His Royal Highness is absurd!"

Duguxin replied indifferently, said.

Li Tai smiled and put the topic aside, he turned to Tiedan, Meng Wenhao, Qin Huaiyu and others: "Longshan has a towering terrain, and there is no shelter around it. This pavilion is also towering and tall. A little cleaning can take our things. All moved in, and just now General Dugu said, you have also heard that Longshan terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is very convenient to arrange defenders~www.readwn.com~ In this way, safety can also be guaranteed! So I plan to do it Choose here, I wonder if you have any objections?"

In fact, this Tongzi Temple is indeed an excellent location for a telegraph relay station. First, Longshan has a towering terrain (more than 1,200 meters above sea level), and secondly, the Tongzi Temple on Longshan is towering and tall, and the buildings are relatively well-preserved and convenient. Yanhuang Academy and others directly brought in the necessary machinery and equipment and built a telegraph relay station!

After hearing the words, they all nodded and said: "I agree! This is indeed very suitable!"

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

Upon seeing this, Li Tai said with satisfaction: "That's good! Let's act immediately according to the task assigned in the morning, survey, evaluate, and move things, Tiedan, Wenhao, Huaiyu, you are busy here first, I will follow General Dugu Go back to the city and inform Mr. Mo Chui and other teachers and students by the way!"

"it is good!"
