"Oh, I wonder what treasure it is. If it works, Tiangong Pavilion will be credited with a great achievement, and all the relevant personnel will be rewarded." Yi Tianxing said with interest. If all the major departments in Dayi can find a way to solve the problem, it will be welcomed.
"Emperor, please look."
Gongshu Lin immediately took out an item that looked very simple.
It was a long, slender metal needle, with a round sphere at the bottom, very smooth, and the sphere seemed to contain a mysterious Taoist aura. Overall, it didn't look very eye-catching, and still looked weird.
"lightning rod."
When Yi Tianxing saw it, he immediately understood what it was.
"Emperor, this is called a lightning rod. It has the effect of preventing people from being struck by lightning. Even if there is dense lightning, it can directly lead it over, so that the people will not be struck by lightning or electric shock."
Gongshu Lin began to introduce: "The material used for this lightning rod is very special. It is a material with lightning properties refined by my Dayi, called Thunder Steel, which has extremely strong conductivity for lightning properties. If there is lightning nearby, it will be attracted. The lightning rod cast with Thunder Steel can better attract lightning. As for this sphere, it is the most important component of the lightning rod. We in Tiangong Pavilion call it the Lightning Pool. The lightning gathered by the lightning rod will be guided into it, and under the operation of the rune formation in the Lightning Pool, it will be quickly refined and become the energy storage of the lightning rod. The coverage of the lightning rod can reach a radius of a thousand miles."
As the introduction continued, Yi Tianxing nodded secretly.
I have a deeper understanding of the lightning rod in front of me. In comparison, this is more powerful than the modern lightning rod. It not only absorbs the advantages of the modern lightning rod, but also fully exerts imagination and even the rune technology of Dayi.
Today, Dayi's rune skills have developed to an extraordinary scale. Various runes are parsed from talismans, and then specially studied. The effects and abilities of each rune are studied one by one, recorded in a book, and stored in the Sutra Library. The combination of various runes, how to form a formation, etc. are all the focus of research. Not only is the Tiangong Pavilion researching, but the Immortal Academy is also researching.
A large number of students have participated in the rune arts and contributed their own ideas. Every day, new rune formations are born, new rune combinations appear, and even new runes are discovered.
For example, the Eagle Eye Rune can give a person the amazing vision of an eagle, increase their field of vision, and so on.
Now, rune skills have almost entered every aspect of Dayi and are everywhere in life. Runes are like a panacea. When integrated into traditional skills, they can often give those skills a new lease of life and create a completely different spark of civilization.
This lightning rod contains a lightning-gathering rune formation.
"Good baby, what a good baby."
"Great! With this lightning rod, I no longer have to worry about being struck by lightning in Dayi."
“Is it difficult to make a lightning rod? Can it be deployed on a large scale?”
The ministers in the hall were ecstatic and immediately questioned Gongshu Lin. They wanted to know the most detailed data. Once the lightning and thunder were solved, there was no doubt that the natural disaster could be reduced by half. In this way, even if there were some obstacles, it would be harmless.
"The process of refining lightning rods is not complicated. Moreover, we have a universal printer. We can produce them on a large scale at any time." Gongshu Lin said confidently.
Since he dares to take it out, he must be confident about it.
After all, it is not complicated to make this lightning rod.
"If the lightning rod is just like this, it can indeed solve the current problem, but can it be further sublimated on the current basis? For example, can a flying rune formation be added to the lightning rod so that it can float in the void. Only when it is in the high altitude can it attract more lightning. Also, this lightning rod can avoid lightning. Can the rune formation be reversed so that the lightning rod has the ability to release the absorbed lightning? Let it not only absorb, but also attack. If this can be done, these lightning rods will become a major city-guarding weapon for the major immortal cities in Dayi."
Yi Tianxing said slowly.
People cannot stand still by blindly following the old ways; they must constantly expand their thinking and truly display different sparks of wisdom. Civilization continues to grow and transform in this process.
With the integration of rune technology, changes are naturally needed.
"It's not difficult to integrate into the flying magic circle. If you want to release the thunder power gathered in the lightning rod again, you need to reverse the formation and conduct new research and experiments. However, it shouldn't be a big problem. It can be achieved."
Gongshu Lin said after a moment's hesitation.
"My Immortal Academy can participate in this and complete it as soon as possible. If it can be quickly promoted, the safety of the entire Dayi will be taken to a higher level. Let the lightning rod become the first line of defense in Dayi Immortal City."
Cai Yong also nodded and said.
"Very good, this method is feasible. We should perfect it as quickly as possible, and then we must refine enough lightning rods as soon as possible." Yi Tianxing nodded and said, "However, this method is only a temporary solution, not a permanent solution. We, Great Yi, must not passively endure disasters and do nothing. As far as I know, this time there should be innate gods who appeared in our Great Yi territory, working together to bring down disasters and change the weather. I have also explored before, and these innate gods have already merged into the void in the Great Yi territory. They are like laws, hidden in the invisible, and urging the changes in the celestial phenomena. Ordinary methods cannot force them out of the world."
Yi Tianxing had already tried to find the four gods of wind, rain, thunder and lightning. As long as he could find them, he would be able to suppress them. But the problem was that even he couldn't find them. The four gods had already integrated into every inch of the world of the Great Yi Dynasty, driving the changes in the celestial phenomena with their will. Unless the laws of heaven and earth could be completely shattered, otherwise, finding them would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
If not for this, Dao Zun Jiu Tian would not have called them here.
Likewise, the Four Gods were able to agree because the Four Gods Formation Diagram allowed them to completely integrate into the world, and with the help of their identities as innate gods, they could conform to the laws of heaven and earth. Of course, this was not conformity with the Tao, but just a state that was almost identical.
In this situation, Yi Tianxing also had no solution.
Even if we knew they were in Dayi, we could do nothing about it.
"Emperor, there is a rumor among the people recently that has spread widely."
Su Shi stepped forward again and said.
He was the Minister of Public Opinion, whose duty was to compile all kinds of rumors among the people and pass them on to the higher authorities, as well as to supervise all officials and other matters.
"Oh, tell me about it."
Yi Tianxing said calmly.
"There are rumors among the people that this natural disaster is caused by something that happened in Dayi that offended the heavens, so this change occurred. In order to alleviate the natural disaster, we need to celebrate and wash away the disaster energy over Dayi. Maybe we can eliminate the natural disaster."
Su Shi spoke.
"A wedding for the sake of happiness?"
The Minister of Rites Mao Sui immediately stepped forward and said, "This is inappropriate. The custom of rushing to happiness is just a folk custom. Its role is nothing more than a certain psychological effect. Although happiness can cheer people up, how can we trust this folk custom? It is too childish to decide such a major event of heaven and earth."
Such practice is obviously not in accordance with etiquette.
To believe this is to treat the affairs of the empire as a trifle. Isn't that completely unreasonable
If this gets out, will the officials in the court of Dayi still have any shame? Wouldn't it make them appear too incompetent
"When and where did this rumor start? Has it been thoroughly investigated? Have the Six Gates and the Palace of Natural Disasters noticed anything?"
Yi Tianxing's eyes flashed. Rumors? He didn't believe that this was a rumor that appeared out of nowhere. In the Great Yi, if a rumor suddenly appeared, it must not have appeared casually. There must be a reason behind it.
"Reporting to the Emperor, the rumor appeared very suddenly. There was no sign of how it appeared. It was just mentioned by some people during discussions. As for whether there is someone behind it, we need to investigate carefully."
Zhuge Zhengwo said after frowning slightly.
Before this, I didn't take this matter too seriously.
After all, they were just some harmless rumors, not too outrageous. In Dayi, there was freedom of speech, and one would not be convicted for these ordinary remarks.
"The rumor came out naturally, without any flaws. The Emperor believes that there is a deeper meaning behind it."
The Child Emperor also spoke.
When the rumor appeared, the Natural Disaster Hall had actually conducted an investigation and found that it was just a rumor among the people and harmless. Of course, they did not believe in using a happy event to dispel disaster spirits. They just treated it as a joke and a topic of conversation.
"Haha, it seems that someone is secretly concerned about my harem."
Yi Tianxing smiled meaningfully.
The rumor appeared too coincidentally. In his opinion, such a coincidence was definitely problematic.
What is the purpose of this rumor
Want to bring him good luck
What does a wedding ceremony require? Of course, it requires selecting outstanding beauties to enter the palace. This is interfering with his private affairs.
"No matter where the rumors came from, and whether there is really a mastermind behind the scenes, their purpose is nothing more than one, that is, to let the emperor select concubines for the palace. In this case, why don't the emperor take advantage of the situation and announce it to the world to select beautiful girls to enter the palace. On the one hand, it can enrich the harem, and on the other hand, it can find out the purpose behind it."
Zhuge Liang waved his feather fan and said with a smile.
"The Emperor dominates the vast sea realm, and the people under his rule are counted in billions, but there are indeed too few concubines in the imperial palace. Now, in this year of natural disasters, if the Emperor selects beautiful girls and pretends to be happy, it may cheer people up. It can also add blood to the imperial family."
Jia Xu also said with a smile.
