I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

Liu Che had no choice but to turn a blind eye to Lu Xuan. It didn't matter if Lu Xuan came, anyway, his son had to accompany him to the sky, and Lu Xuan could only stand on the ground and watch.

Thinking about it this way, Liu Che felt a lot better.

Liu Tan squeezed Lu Xuan's fingers, Lu Xuan helped him tidy up the cloak carefully and said: "It's cold up there, be careful."

Chen Ajiao, who was about to come over to tell her: ...

For a moment, Ajiao Chen had a very strange feeling, as if her son was no longer hers.

This feeling was not so strong when she married her daughter.

Liu Tan smiled and followed up to the star-picking platform. At this time, the air cushion below was fully inflated. After Liu Che took the elevator up and looked down, he always felt a little strange.

But when he looked up again, he found that the lights outside the palace were indeed brightly lit. In fact, not only the outside of the palace, but also the inside of the palace is actually very beautiful, and the houses of several high-ranking officials next to the palace are also decorated. Well done, for a while the whole of Chang'an indeed became a sea of ​​lanterns.

Liu Che stood on the platform for picking up stars and said with a smile: "This is already pretty good."

Liu Tan said, "This angle is average."

Their angle is only 01:30 higher than the lanterns outside, and many shorter lanterns can't actually be seen.

While they were talking, the hot air balloon had been set up.

Liu Che turned his head and looked behind him. This was the first time he saw a hot air balloon.

When Liu Tan was tossing about the hot air balloon, he had always done a good job of keeping it secret, and Liu Che was not in a hurry to see it, which caused his eyes to widen when he saw the hot air balloon for the first time.

Not only him, even the people standing below had their eyes widened—they had never seen such a behemoth before.

No, or it should be said that I have never seen such a giant that can float in the air.

At first Liu Che thought that the building boat built by his son was already very big, but he didn't expect the hot air balloon to be even worse than it.

Because the distance was so close, Liu Che couldn't see the whole picture of the hot air balloon even if he raised his head.

But the people below can see clearly.

Liu Tan waited for a while, and after seeing that Liu Che had already reacted, he said, "Father, let's go."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Liu Che.

Originally, he just wanted to eliminate Liu Che's anxiety in the face of strange things, but for some reason, he always felt something was wrong when he made this action, so he glanced down subconsciously.

Everyone below was looking up at them, and Liu Tan easily found Lu Xuan's figure inside.

He thought he knew why it didn't feel right.

However, Liu Che's reaction was completely different from what he thought, and he directly held Liu Tan's hand and said, "It's okay, don't be afraid."

Liu Tan:? ? ?

He made a hot air balloon, and also tried it secretly, what is he afraid of?

With dry and warm hands, Liu Che just pulled his son into the hanging basket.

Liu Che, who entered the hanging basket, was obviously curious about everything. He touched the hanging basket, then looked up at the oil drums and fuel pool above his head.

He couldn't help laughing when he saw these fans: "The fans you sent to the palace before were thought of when you were doing this?"

Liu Tan replied: "Yes, at that time I just wanted to provide some power to the hot air balloon, but when I was doing it, I felt that the wind was blowing and it was... very cool, so I made a fan."

In fact, he didn't feel the wind, but he continued to think of the fan naturally after getting it out.

Liu Che glanced at Liu Tan with a smile. His son was getting more and more perfunctory now. It sounded like he explained why he made the fan, but in fact...he didn't say at all how he came up with the fan on the hot air balloon.

So this should also be something from the fairy world.

But it doesn't matter, he can tolerate his son's little presumptuousness. After all, only by letting Liu Tan relax will more things from the fairy world appear, and he will be closer to that world and understand it better.

He even had a premonition that after he really understood that world, maybe it was the time when he really found the fairy world.

As the door of the gondola was closed and flames were ignited above his head, Liu Tan began to check whether Liu Che was properly dressed—not because he was pretending, but because it was really cold up there.

At least he was already very cold on the star picking platform, and he didn't dare to think about what would happen if he rose six meters higher.

The wind on the star picking platform is relatively strong, and the fan can rotate by itself without much assistance. After a while, the hot air balloon begins to rise slowly.

Liu Che, who was standing inside the gondola, only felt the soles of his feet shake, and then felt a little weightless.

In fact, this feeling is not unfamiliar to him, after all, it is also the same when taking the elevator.

The rising speed of the hot air balloon was very slow, so slow that Liu Che could feel the process of rising into the sky little by little.

The people standing below became smaller and smaller, while the brightly lit Chang'an City in the distance became more and more complete within the field of vision.

And when he rose to a height of about ten feet from the platform for picking up stars, Liu Che saw a flash of light.

He subconsciously looked after the light, and found that the light was actually Liu Tan's mansion. In the backyard of Liu Tan's mansion, it could be said to be as bright as day, and the light of those braziers and lanterns reflected on the ice sculptures There are ice sculptures reflecting, and different angles can see different lights, which is really interesting.

It's just that at this height, he can only see something but can't see what it is.

He didn't ask in a hurry, but slowly waited for the hot air balloon to rise. After reaching a certain height, he felt a shock in his feet, and then found that the hot air balloon stopped taking off and just floated in mid-air.

Liu Che was not in a hurry to ask why the hot air balloon didn't continue to rise. His son had already reported it to him before, and it was said that he couldn't fly up without restraint.

What Liu Tan meant was that he was worried that he would not be able to control it, but Liu Che... Liu Che had his own understanding. He thought that maybe Liu Tan was worried that the hot air balloon would fly all the way to the fairy world, and it would anger the gods instead.

Liu Tan didn't know what Liu Che was thinking, but even if he knew, he could just... let him go.

Liu Che's gaze was fixed on Liu Tan's backyard. Only then did he see clearly that it was a group of crystal clear and white statues, a tree with a very gorgeous but very strange bird on it, and a group of birds hovering between the tree and the tree. In the middle of that gorgeous bird.

Liu Che looked at it for a long time, and found that although the birds had some color on their bodies, most of them were translucent. He was not sure about the material of this thing for a while and couldn't help asking: "Did you make sugar sculptures again?"

Liu Tan said with a smile: "No, using sugar is too extravagant, what if someone talks about it again? These are made of water, they are ice sculptures."

Liu Che was a little surprised when he heard this, and he glanced at Liu Tan and said, "You really know how to play in the water."

Liu Tan blinked, not knowing whether this was a compliment or not.

At this time, Liu Che had already strengthened his previous suspicions - when his son was in the fairy world, maybe the spells were related to water.

Looking at what he did after he arrived in the northern border country, he has been dealing with water all the time, and even started to build a boat when the northern border country has no sea at all. All this shows that his son has an indissoluble bond with water.

Liu Tan didn't know where Liu Che's brain had gone, and he patiently explained to him what it was all about: "That's a plane tree, and the one standing on top of the plane tree is a phoenix."

"Huh?" Liu Che didn't react when he heard the sycamore tree, thinking that it was a unique tree species in the fairyland, but after hearing the word "phoenix", a little doubt appeared on his face: "Phoenix? Phoenix... Is it like this?" ?”

Liu Tan smiled: "Phoenix... There are also many kinds, or there are many branches of this race, and each branch has a different name. It's just that everyone doesn't know much about Phoenix, so they are collectively called Phoenix."

Liu Tan didn't talk about the phoenix in the eyes of the common people, he avoided this topic, but Liu Che automatically understood that the phoenix they saw... was not a complete phoenix.

In fact, Liu Tan's ice sculptures are indeed easy to cause such misleading.

These days, both the image of the dragon and the phoenix are still relatively simple, basically made up of simple lines, but what Liu Tan made is different, not to mention the dragon, which has horns, lins and other characteristics.

The same is true for the phoenix now, it does look shining, and it is not the same as their phoenix.

Liu Chezai looked at the phoenix carefully, gestured and asked, "The real phoenix...is it big?"

This question really baffled Liu Tan, he...has never seen Phoenix?

However, when you think about it, Phoenix actually has a lot of peacock qualities. The size of a peacock, especially the length of its tail, can be applied to Phoenix.

No, you can even make the phoenix bigger than the peacock.

After all, it is a divine bird, so it must have the appearance of a divine bird.

Liu talked about this and said calmly: "This ice sculpture is probably about [-]% the size of the real phoenix."

There was a little surprise in Liu Che's eyes but also a little bit of understanding, and he felt that the divine bird should indeed have such a body.

He asked again, "What about the other birds?"

Liu Tan said: "This group of ice sculptures is called Bainiao Chaofeng. The phoenix is ​​the king of all birds, so when it is there, all birds will come to see it."

Liu Che understood, smiled and said, "I heard you prepared this for the queen?"

Liu Tan said calmly: "Yes, I don't have any other interesting things, so I just make some ice sculptures. This ice sculpture has one effect when viewed at night, and another effect when viewed during the day. It is completely different when viewed in the sky and on the ground. different."

Liu Che was very interested after hearing this: "Then I'm going to have a look."

Well, it doesn't matter even if it's something his son gave Chen Ajiao, anyway, there is no king's land in the world, even if it belongs to the queen, it belongs to him!

Liu Tan didn't think there was anything wrong, he just pointed to the other side and said, "Father, look over there."

The ice sculptures are indeed beautiful, but if you look at them too much, they are just like that. They are not interesting. Instead, Liu Tan is interested in the lanterns over there.

In fact, if Liu Tan hadn't set up such a hot air balloon tonight, Liu Che and the others originally planned to go out in micro-clothes to watch the lanterns.

In the past, the emperor would go out to watch the lanterns every year, and several times at the Lantern Festival, he saw a nice little lady and brought them back. Well, that's how immoral it is.

It's just that this year is different. Watching lanterns in the crowd is lively, but watching lanterns in the sky has a kind of pride.

That is a kind of pride that is under the control of the whole world.

Liu Che looked down, not only could he see the lanterns, but he could even see the people passing by beside the lanterns. The fireworks of thousands of lights suddenly made him feel that the world was no worse than the fairy world.

Just when he was about to say something, he suddenly noticed something wrong with his sharp eyes, he raised his finger and pointed to the north and asked, "What is that?"

Liu Tan raised his eyes and smiled: "I ordered someone to do it. I put some river lanterns in the Weishui River. Does your father think it looks good?"

Good-looking is of course good-looking. When Liu Che went to the Northern Kingdom, Liu Tan used to put river lanterns in the pool of Longevity Palace, which made him feel amazing. Later, he also asked people to put such lanterns in the Kun pool in the palace from time to time. lanterns.

It’s just that the lanterns in the pond are generally fixed in one place and rarely move. Now the river lanterns in the Weishui River have been floating all the time. At the beginning, only some places had the lights of the river lanterns. The floating dots lit up the whole river, and for a moment the Weishui on the ground and the Milky Way in the sky seemed to echo each other, and Liu Che, who was in the middle, took all of this into his eyes.

Liu Che stood on the hot air balloon and watched for a long time. Those lanterns actually floated very slowly, but he didn't feel bored.

Seeing that the lanterns were almost floating, Liu Tan said, "Father, it's windy in the sky, let's go down."

Of course, it's not just because of the strong wind, but more because if this continues, the fuel will not be enough.

Liu Che took a last look at Weishui and Chang'an City with nostalgia. Seeing the reluctance on his face, Liu Tan smiled and said, "The hot air balloon is in the palace. Father, you can go up there whenever you want."

After a pause, he added: "But you can't fly too high, this height is the limit."

Of course, this height is not the limit. If you are not afraid of the cold, you can still rise a little.

But he didn't dare to say these words, he was afraid that after he finished speaking, Liu Che would fly into the sky after looking for a summer day.

He is very clear about how courageous Liu Che is. Who would dare to lead a fleet to the sea to seek immortals when their own equipment is not very good?

Liu Che dares!

Now the hot air balloon is obviously more reliable than those ships back then, so Liu Che will go to the sky with more confidence and boldness.

However, his words comforted Liu Che very well.

Liu Che responded, and then watched as Liu Tan asked someone to stop the fan. The hot air balloon didn't respond at first, but after a while, he felt the hot air balloon began to descend slowly, and finally reached the height of a person. Liu Tan ordered the flames to be reduced, and the hot air balloon continued to descend slowly.

After they completely landed on the star picking platform, a group of people gathered around, those who brought hot soup gave hot soup, and those who refueled the oil tank.

Liu Che felt that he didn't feel much when he was in the sky, but when he came down, he found that he still felt different after staying up there for a long time.

He turned his head to look at Liu Tan, and found that Liu Tan hadn't come down, so his face changed slightly: "What are you still doing up there?"

Liu Tan smiled: "I'm waiting for my mother, I'm going to take my mother to see the ice sculptures."

At this time, Chen Ajiao walked past Liu Che proudly, and even let out a small snort.

She was very dissatisfied that Liu Che saw the ice sculpture before her. It was obviously made by her son, but Liu Che took the lead.

Liu Che was too busy to worry about it at this time, and had no time to pay attention to Chen Ajiao.

At that moment, he even wondered if his son would go back to the sky in a hot air balloon.

This led to the fact that he could go back, but he still stayed on the star picking platform and waited for a while.

Anyway, the time from up to down is very short.

He thought so, but for some reason, after Chen Ajiao and Liu started talking, he felt that time passed very long.

Can't help but look up from time to time.

Liu Ju on the side thought that Liu Che was worried, so he said, "Father, don't worry, brother won't take things out easily without complete assurance, and there is a soft air cushion underneath, according to brother, falling from above It’s not so dangerous to go down with this air cushion.”

Liu Ju originally wanted to say that falling on the air cushion would mean injury at most. However, there are many things in this world that cannot be explained. It's too small to say it's completely safe.

After hearing this, Liu Che narrowed his eyes slightly and did not speak. His eldest son had no idea what he was worried about.
