The current Black Bamboo Academy was no longer as shabby as it used to be.
Over the past seven or eight years, it had expanded almost every year, and its area had expanded by more than ten times.
The artificial lake in the backyard had long become the front yard.
The Black Bamboo Forest, which gave the academy its name, had now become a part of the academy's scenery.
After passing the artificial lake, there was a piece of flat land, followed by many classrooms, and then the Black Bamboo Forest. After passing through the artificial lake, there were workshops for blacksmiths, carpenters, pottery, and a small glass workshop.
Although there were only four workshops, the area was very large, much larger than the previous classrooms and the artificial lake.
The students of other academies had never built workshops in the academy. After all, these industries had nothing to do with the academy.
However, this was the specialty of the Black Bamboo Academy.
The students were responsible for designing, thinking, and even assembling, while the craftsmen were responsible for turning some of their ideas into reality.
Nowadays, there weren't many students here, but the workshops weren't idle either. Clanging sounds were non-stop, sparks were flying in the blacksmith workshop, and sawdust was flying in the carpenter workshop.
"We have an idea for these workshops. After designing the blueprints and measurements, we will hand them over to them to make the actual products. Sometimes, they can't understand, so we have to help them make the products on the spot. "Tong Lan pointed at the workshops on both sides as she walked quickly.
Although she didn't want to pay attention to the students, they didn't let her off and kept asking questions along the way.
Ning Changqing, in particular, was extremely interested in the courses in the academy even though he didn't comment on it.
He discovered a problem. The things in the Black Bamboo Academy were completely different from the other academies.
The students of the other academies only had to study, but the students of the Black Bamboo Academy had to do many other things besides studying.
"You will know in a while." Tong Lan was too lazy to explain further.
She brought everyone to the experimental area. Everyone looked up and saw a row of brick buildings that were similar to the classrooms in front of them.
On both sides, there were several huge storehouses.
They didn't look special from the outside.
"This is the laboratory," Tong Lan said as they walked.
Everyone immediately knew that this was the main point.
"What are they doing here?"
"Experimenting and designing some new things."
Tong Lan led everyone past the laboratories and saw that they were full of cabinets and tables, and there were many papers scattered on them.
"Can I take a look?" Ning Changqing asked.
"You can only look and not touch. Don't mess up the things inside," Tong Lan said expressionlessly.
Ning Changqing nodded, walked in, and went straight to the stack of papers scattered on the table. He saw that they were all blueprints of unknown objects, and they were all labeled with detailed sizes.
However, he did see a few relatively complete designs, or rather, imaginative designs.
There was a complete picture on it. The objects in the picture had the body of a flying insect or a bird, and there were words that he could not understand next to them.
Lifting his head and looking around, he saw huge shelves filled with dossiers.
On the table by the window, there were a few wooden models, which were the items on the scrolls.
"What is this?"
Tong Lan crossed her arms and leaned against the door. She looked at everyone walking around and replied expressionlessly, "A plane with a passenger."
"It can carry people? Fly into the sky? "Ning Changqing was extremely interested.
No matter which world you are in, flying freely in the sky is one of the dreams of mankind.
"Of course."
"Where is it? Have you made it? "
"I'm very surprised. The things in your academy have really broadened my horizons." The old man smiled and praised them. If it was someone else who said that they could fly into the sky, he might not believe it.
However, in this academy led by Zhao Prince Consort, it might become a reality. After all, they could make calls from thousands of miles away. There was even a telephone in the Xiaojiang Academy, which was installed by a graduate of the academy.
"It's in the warehouse," Tong Lan said casually. "It's not difficult to fly into the sky."
The others were speechless. What a big tone.
Furthermore, why was the Black Bamboo Academy doing things that seemed like a fantasy to others?
What was the world like a ball? What was a plane that could carry people into the sky?
For this world, the Black Bamboo Academy was way ahead of its time. Therefore, when people learned about the ancient race academy, they did not feel respect. Instead, they felt suspicious and strange.
One step ahead was a great man with great foresight, while two steps ahead was a lunatic who raved.
The Black Bamboo Academy, which was at the forefront of this world, was obviously that lunatic.
When they passed by the third classroom, Tong Lan saw a box with a wire attached to it. She rolled her eyes, and her face finally showed some expression. The corners of her mouth curled up as if she had thought of something fun. "Do you want me to take a photo for you?"
"Photo?" Everyone was puzzled.
Tong Lan took out a stack of hard and smooth paper from a table and showed it to everyone. "This is it."
Everyone saw that there were pictures on the paper. There were trees, houses, purple bamboo forests, and a small lake. Almost all the scenes that they had seen in the academy appeared on the paper.
Moreover, unlike paintings, the images on the paper seemed to contain scenes from reality.
Other than the color being black and white, it was almost the same as reality.
"What is this?" Everyone was surprised.
"Photo paper, or rather, photo paper, can record everything in reality. It won't change even after 10 or 100 years." Tong Lan tried her best to look serious, but her expression was slightly strange. Anyone who was familiar with her would immediately know that she was up to no good.
Although she was always very arrogant, Tong Lan was also an 18-year-old girl. She was lively and quick-witted, but only people who were familiar with her would see this side of her.
"What are these?"
"Thank you." Ning Changqing stroked his beard and smiled.
He really wanted to see what he would look like in the so-called photo.
"Okay, stand properly. I'll get ready." Tong Lan took out the box. She pointed the camera at everyone and connected it to the wires. She looked up at everyone who had stood properly according to her instructions and pressed the shutter.
"Click."
After taking three photos in a row, Tong Lan nodded in satisfaction. "Done."
She then took out a photo from behind her. On it was a picture of a student from the academy with six arms. He looked very lifelike.
"This will be the effect after the image is taken."
Everyone exclaimed, "It's just like the real thing."
"Of course it's real. His soul has been captured in here. As long as this photo is torn, he will die." Tong Lan finally revealed her fangs. She had an undisguised smile on her face as if she had finally succeeded.
It was exactly the same as the negative characters in the comics.
She had learned it from them!
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
They felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured over their heads.
"Your … your thoughts …" Many of the academy's scholars were stunned for a moment before their expressions changed drastically.
"That's right. Why do you think this thing is the same as the real thing? Because it's the real thing! After this Soul Capturing Camera takes a photo, your soul will be captured in it! "Tong Lan felt very carefree when she saw everyone's expression turn into one of horror.
"In the future … if Yagui asks you to go west, you can't go east. If he asks you to catch a dog, you can't catch a chicken. Otherwise, as long as the photo is torn … your soul will fly away and scatter … "
"Who is Yagui?"
"Zhao Prince Consort! He is an evil spirit in human skin! Otherwise, why do you think we always talk about Yagui? "
This time, everyone was even more frightened.
"Demoness!"
"Why did you do such a thing?"
Many people's faces turned green.
Tong Lan felt that she should find a place to laugh again. She laughed heartily in her heart. Idiots!
However, there were a few people who didn't have much of a change in their expressions.
Ning Changqing even laughed. This young lady was rather interesting.
He didn't believe that the soul would be captured on the photo.
Humans had souls. Did those trees and stones have souls as well?
Furthermore, if that was the case, why did she say it now? Did she trick them here just to take a photo? Why go through so much trouble?
Tong Lan's thoughts turned extremely fast. "Do you think that trees and stones don't have souls? Everything in the world has souls. "As Tong Lan spoke, the photo was an image of a wall.
Tong Lan tore the photo a little and revealed a strange smile to everyone. "As long as I tear the photo …"
Everyone stared intently at her hands.
Many of them broke out in cold sweat.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a loud sound erupted nearby. Gravel flew everywhere.
Although it wasn't far away, it was separated by a courtyard.
Tong Lan was also startled by this loud sound. Her hands trembled and she tore the photo …
She immediately identified that it was most likely an explosion in the university's laboratory … However, she almost couldn't hold back her laughter. She was too cooperative.
Everyone looked at the torn photo in her hands and then at the thick smoke not far away. Their faces turned completely green.
Even the faces of Cao Gui and the others changed.
First, set a small goal. For example, one second.
