A life of clearness

Chapter 288 Manual driving?

"That is to say, except for the basic frame, other modules can be disassembled." Tianxia Diyi explained to Rong Qing in detail.

"This magic weapon of modular structure was very popular in my time. Why was it popular? Two benefits. One is that it makes the finished products more diverse. The other is that it lowers the cost and selling price. These two benefits benefit both buyers and sellers."

"I guessed from the beginning that these Taoist temples were magic weapons with modular structures. After all, the number of Taoist temples that Fu Tu Zunjie wanted to build was very large. The basic framework and each module were built separately and then pieced together at the end. It would be much faster than forging each Taoist temple from scratch. Now that I have seen Cangliu Temple, this guess has been verified to be correct."

"For example, the bird in this portrait is in Cangliu Temple but not in Baishi Temple, which means that Baishi Temple dismantled this module in the past for some reason unknown to you and me. For another example, Cangliu Temple has one less room than Baishi Temple, which means that Cangliu Temple also dismantled a module in the past."

"What's the point of demolishing it?" Rong Qing couldn't understand.

"It's just like a gecko cutting off its tail to survive." Number One Under Heaven said easily, "The core technology inside the Taoist temple is in the hands of the Buddha Realm. If there is any damage to the Taoist temple in the turbulent flow, the temple master cannot repair it. If you want to completely repair it, you can only send it back to the Buddha Realm for repair. There is another thing you have to know, that is, once these Taoist temples open up to cross the boundary, if it succeeds, it's fine. If it fails and has to fly in the turbulent flow, the resources consumed will be very terrifying."

"In order to save resources, many unnecessary auxiliary modules have to be disconnected."

Actively dismantle some intact auxiliary modules, and abandon modules that are damaged to the point of being difficult to use in the turbulence... At such a critical moment, no matter how reluctant you are, you have to abandon them.

"In other words," Rong Qing sighed as she stood in Cangliu Temple, which was almost as boring as Baishi Temple, "Baishi Temple is now just an empty shell."

It was dismantled to the point where it could no longer be dismantled. Not only would the remaining basic framework cause the entire Taoist temple to collapse if it were moved, but it was also impossible to dismantle it with the little power of the master of the mother world.

A magic weapon of this level cannot be disassembled so easily unless it is designed to allow people to easily remove its modules.

"You're wrong." Number One Under Heaven laughed beside Rong Qing's ear: "It doesn't matter if it's an empty shell, as long as it can be used."

He reminded Rong Qing: "The ability of this Taoist temple is to cross boundaries. This is its basic framework. As for the other things, if they exist, it's good; if they don't, just let it go."

The basic framework is cross-border. And this basic framework cannot be dismantled by the master of the temple. It will only be damaged if it is hit by an irresistible impact from the outside world. If the basic framework is unbalanced, the entire Taoist temple will automatically collapse.

"So that's how it is." Rong Qing suddenly realized.

It's like an airplane. Its basic framework is to take off smoothly, fly high, and land safely. As for other systems such as listening to music and watching movies, they are auxiliary modules that can be removed. Because these auxiliary modules do not interfere with flight at all. Once the basic framework is unbalanced, the airplane will automatically disintegrate during flight.

"But is there any damage inside Baishi Temple? Can it support normal cross-border operations?"

"As the master of the temple, you really don't feel anything at all?"

"...No." Rong Qing was also speechless, "But using its auxiliary ability is still quite smooth. There shouldn't be any problems?"

This should make Rong Qing feel uneasy.

If those minor injuries had erupted when she crossed the border, her death would have been too unjust.

"Alas..." Tianxia Diyi sighed, which was rare for him. "It's the same with Baishi Temple and Cangliu Temple. They both lack the guidance module. We have no choice but to figure it out on our own."

"There are only a handful of spiritual weapons born in the universe, and so-called magic weapons are nothing more spiritual. Normally, once you recognize the magic weapon as your master, it will pass on basic usage information to you. However, this is a magic weapon with a combined structure, and all these usage information are replaced by the guidance module. If the master of the temple uses the cross-border function of the Taoist temple, he must rely on the guidance module for control. This is also a way for the Buddha Realm to protect its own technology."

"The masters of Baishi Temple and Cangliu Temple at that time removed the guidance module. I don't quite understand why. Perhaps they already fully understood how to use the temple and did not need the guidance module."

"Anyway, let's find the control core first." Rong Qing nodded.

Got it. This means that the automatic driving cannot be used, so it can only be done manually.

However, manually controlling the Baishiguan is tens of millions times more difficult than learning to fly a plane by yourself.

Rong Qing frowned, retreated from Cangliu Temple, put away the small seal of Cangliu Temple, and entered Baishi Temple again.

Now she was glad that she had borrowed the Cangliu Temple from the inspector for half a year. Obviously, studying the manual control method was not something that could be completed in a few days.

……

Rong Qing and Tianxia Diyi were working diligently in the underground quiet room of Baishi Temple in Jingguo. On the ground, as time passed quietly, the temperature dropped again and again, and soon the grass and trees were frosted, and white mist came out of the breath of ordinary people.

The winter solstice has arrived.

There are few people in the huge Baishi Temple.

especially……

Dugu Zhi pushed the wheelchair over the cold and hard stone brick floor, and soon he stopped and breathed tiredly. His eyes fell on the closed door in the deep courtyard.

Especially since Zhong Xiu left, he could never come back.

Dugu Zhi was filled with a rare feeling of sadness. He had seen too many deaths and lives. There were some he was powerless to do anything about, like his mother. There were some he took the initiative to do something about, like his father. Even he himself would not live long.

How many more times can he see such a winter scene?

Because of the uncertainty, he even missed the winter season, which he had never liked.

"How long are you going to watch?" Zhao Riyue's cold voice came from behind him.

It's not jealousy, but rather the regret as a doctor that the patients don't take care of their bodies.

"You should have let Aunt Zhi stay with you."

Dugu Zhi turned his head to look at Zhao Riyue with a smile in his eyes.

"According to Mr. Yu, I can't let Aunt Zhi serve me all year round, so I asked Aunt Zhi to take a good rest during the winter solstice. I don't need others to serve me because I'm not used to it. What's more, I designed this wheelchair myself, and I considered the situation of using it alone... Is this answer satisfactory to Miss Zhao?"

Zhao Riyue pursed her lips and talked about another matter: "Young Master has brought Jia Jia to Yuxiang Town and is resting in the town. They will be able to reach the temple in about an hour."

"Really..." Dugu Zhiyi sighed, and his originally fragile eyes quickly became tough, "Very good."

Before he died, he wanted to do his last bit of favors for the Dugu family.
