Author: Chasing History and Exploring the Present.In the lush forest, a sheep's intestine path is revealed, and the winding path leads to the depths of the mountain.Editor: Tracing the Past and Exploring the Present.
Before dawn, someone was already walking along the path into the mountains and forests, walking in burlap clothes, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and he was going to go deep into the mountains to cut some trees and go home.
The trail was narrow, and the deeper it was, the more lush the weeds became, and the steepness of the mountain, he was not paying attention, and pressed his hand on the weeds, and blood marks appeared on his hands, which made him interested in observing.
It turned out that the leaves of the weeds had sharp teeth on both sides, and his hand would naturally be cut if he slashed upward, and he pondered for a moment what he had discovered, when his companion behind him called out his name.
"Luban!”
Lu Ban, whose surname is "the ancestor of all surnames", is a member of the Gong Losing clan, a famous class, a native of Lu during the Warring States Period, and later called Lu Ban, and is called the Gong Loser.
Born in a family of craftsmen in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, he has been exposed to it since he was a child, and has participated in many related projects with his family as craftsmen.
In the process of participating in it again and again, I gradually accumulated rich experience.
And derived from it a lot of novel ideas and put into action, there are a lot of woodworking tools and instruments that have been handed down to the present, workers are still in use, it is said that they are all the invention of Luban.
Luban was born into a family of artisans, which allowed him to learn various agricultural skills and Xi crafts from an early age.
His hands are strong and his eyes are sharp, his mind is full of all kinds of new ideas, and he can often find new inspiration in the things around him.
His love of craftsmanship and curiosity about the unknown led him to become an excellent craftsman.
Luban's talent for invention stems from his keen observation and endless imagination.
He made the first saws out of bamboo and strips, a great invention that made it easier for people to cut wood and greatly improved work efficiency.
He also invented the cart, a tool that could be spun into shape of wood, making the work of carpenters easier.
It is recorded in the Book of the World that he also invented the stone mill, which greatly improved the efficiency and reduced the burden.
In addition to this, Luban also made a great contribution to civil engineering, he invented the saw.
Greatly improving the efficiency of carpentry, the ink fountain allows carpenters to use straight lines during construction, and the curved ruler can help carpenters measure angles, or balance lines.
Lu Ban not only made achievements in carpentry tools and agricultural tools, but also involved in weapons.
In film and television dramas, soldiers are often seen charging under the ancient city wall, and then climbing over the city wall on a long ladder, which is also called a cloud ladder.
It is a common instrument used to siege cities and cross walls in ancient times, and it was also invented by Lu Ban.
There is a relevant record in "Mozi Gong Loss" that Lu Ban transformed the cloud ladder to attack the Song Kingdom.
In the water battle, in order to shorten the distance of the melee ship, it is convenient for the ship to board and engage in close combat, and the eaves of the ship will be climbed with a hook, so that the ship can not sail away at will.
The inventor is still Lu Ban, which was first used in the water war between Chu and Yue.
In other books, there are also records of Lu Ban's various magical inventions, and the machine seal in the "Book of Rites" is buried in a mechanical way.
The stone maps in the "Narrative of Strange Things" and the first deep water well in the mountains, known as the Luban Well, and the rumored pulley that pulled water, etc., Luban's invention is always full of imagination.
Luban is not only an outstanding inventor, but also a selfless educator.
He knew that the inheritance of technology needed someone to relay it, so he recruited many apprentices and passed on his skills to the younger generations, so that more people could Xi learn this knowledge and pass on the skills.
He patiently taught, carefully guided, and explained the complex process to people in the most simple and easy-to-understand way.
In addition, later generations also left some books about Luban, the more famous one is "Luban Sutra", and the other is "Luban Book".
The Luban Jing is a special book for the guidance of the woodworking industry.
The Book of Luban, on the other hand, is divided into two volumes, but the content of the book is not limited to tool construction, but also medical treatment, and even the drawing of spells and talismans.
Before starting to learn Xi Luban book, you should choose one of the five kinds of disabled, lonely, widowed, widowed, and unique, so "Luban Book" is also called "Missing a Door".
And the reason for the lack of a door is due to a story, Lu Ban separated from his new wife soon after his marriage, although Xiao Bie is better than the new marriage, but he can't help but leave all the time.
Under the influence of longing, Lu Ban made a flying trap bird, sat on the trap bird and flew home to meet his wife, for the flying trap bird, his wife was naturally very curious, and later driven by curiosity.
The pregnant wife followed Lu Ban's example and sat on the trap bird, but the trap bird crashed unexpectedly.
His wife died along with the child in her womb, and Lu Ban was so grief-stricken that he cursed all those who Xi Lu Ban's book.
The first sentence of the first volume of the Book of Luban is:"Luban is a master of the origin, happy to open the door of wealth, open the door size, and the door is a fore、......gone conclusionIt can be seen that there is no problem with the upper volume, so why did it become **?
Because the real problem is in the second volume, the next volume was cursed by Lu Ban, and anyone who completely studied this book ended up with no good end in their lives.
Now that the Book of Luban has been destroyed for various reasons, we have no way of knowing what the content is.
In any case, Luban is not only an innovative and brilliant inventor, but also a serious educator.
His imaginative inventions make people marvel at the wisdom of the working people, and in the course of thousands of years of development, people have concentrated all kinds of inventions on him, which not only shows Lu Ban's intelligence.
It also shows the status of Luban in people's hearts, Luban represents the wisdom of the ancient working people, which is not only the admiration of Luban alone, but also the admiration of the entire working people.
Therefore, the story of Lu Ban's invention and creation is actually the story of the invention and creation of the working people in ancient China.
Lu Ban showed us the importance of craftsmanship with practical actions, which stimulated our creativity and curiosity about the unknown.
Later generations not only set up the Luban Prize, which is regarded as the highest honor for the quality of engineering in the construction industry, but also set up the Luban Memorial Hall, which has a great impact on people.
Lu Ban's life was full of wisdom and courage, and he was an example Xi for us to learn from and admire.
