Didn’t you agree to wait until Yin En gets married before going to Tieshan Village?
Looking at Liu Xing who looked confused, Huo Zijun said with a smile: "Leader, don't worry, we don't plan to go to Tieshan Village today. Just because of some experiments, we have to build a shed outside Tianshui Town for research, so this
I’ll be moving soon.”
Liu Xing nodded and guessed: "Oh, it seems that you are preparing to do some more dangerous experiments? That's why you went outside to set up a temporary laboratory?"
Before that, Liu Xing had also heard about Huo Zijun and others' testing site in Tianshui Town. There were often sounds that made the neighbors feel uneasy, such as "crackling", "boom boom boom", etc., so before Meng Fugui
Liu Xing was asked if Huo Zijun and others should move, because the laboratory of Huo Zijun and others was originally located on the periphery of the camp, but now with the arrival of NPCs, the location of the laboratory has gradually changed to the central area.
Although the surrounding buildings are still a certain distance away from the laboratory, they now have a burning bonus of Tianganwudong. In addition, these buildings are all wooden structures, which will be troublesome if they catch fire.
So it was time for Huo Zijun and others to move the laboratory to a safer place.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing continued: "So, is there anything you need my help with? While there are still some businesses outside that are open for business, if you need any special experimental equipment, just tell me directly, and we will try to get it from Tieshan Village.
Someone will send the things back before I come back."
In Liu Xing's impression, almost all experimental equipment required for chemical experiments are professionally customized, even ordinary-looking glasses.
"It's okay, we will all make those simple experimental equipment ourselves, because you, Alliance Leader, also know that chemical experiments require very high precision. If some liquids are one milliliter more or one gram less, the results of the experiment may be very different.
Different places, or even dangers, so now we only trust the experimental equipment we made... After all, leader, you should also be very aware that the weights and measures in the martial arts module this time are somewhat different from the real world, because your character card is a
He's a great doctor." Huo Zijun said seriously.
After Huo Zijun's reminder, Liu Xing remembered that the weights and measures in the martial arts module this time were indeed very different from the real world, or it could be said that they were using ancient weights and measures.
For example, the idiom "half a catty and eight taels" means that half a catty was equal to eight taels in weight at that time, which means that one catty at that time was equal to sixteen taels, so this reflects the difference between the weight units at that time and now.
, directly eight taels became five taels, which sounds like it is almost half lost, and the "jin" in the New Dragon Empire is defined as sixteen taels, and one tael is equal to one hundred grams, which is
It is said that one pound in Xinlong Empire is equal to one and a half pounds in the real world and a little more.
"Then we have to be careful. If this thing is also flowing down the river, we may encounter it unexpectedly!" Liu Xing said seriously.
Liu Xing nodded, then pointed at the dead fish still flowing down the river and said: "Brother Yu, look at the number and density of these fish. Logically speaking, these fish floating on the water are flowing along the water.
They move forward, so as long as they don't hit something when the river turns, their speed downstream is almost constant. This means that the unknown creature that is eating upstream moves very quickly. It can be said that it is eating at the same time.
While catching! So we have reason to suspect that this may not be one, but a group!"
Then there is the classic question of whether "stone" is pronounced tense or singular, and the weight of "stone" itself has different meanings in different dynasties. Therefore, the "stone" in the Xinlong Empire is similar to that in the Han Dynasty, about
It is equivalent to sixty pounds in the real world.
Therefore, things made of wood are prone to deformation, especially those with special shapes like buckets. Therefore, Liu Xing also feels that the set of standard buckets in Heshan County may have an error of about 10%, and such
Errors are no longer acceptable in chemistry.
Zhang Jingxu took out a few talismans from his arms and said with a smile: "These are the talismans I drew in the past two days. They are more or less effective, so leader, please just stay."
For Liu Xing, this was huge bad news. After all, if this was really a World of Warcraft, then the distance between these two kilometers would be the same as when he used to go to the toilet after class. He could reach Tianshui Town by just walking a few steps.
Even if it doesn't take action directly, it will scare the NPCs to death, because in the eyes of the NPCs, Warcraft is an invincible and terrifying existence.
Moreover, the standard bucket does not have any standards, which means that it can only be relatively accurate when it is filled with things. As for numbers such as two hundred milliliters and four hundred and thirty-eight milliliters, it cannot be measured at all, or in other words
The error will be very large.
After Yu Lei made sure that there was no danger around, he took Liu Xing to the river beach. "It seems that this guy caught all the fish first, then took a bite and threw them away, and then left after eating and drinking."
, so if this guy is a Warcraft, then it is preparing to settle here; but now there is good news, that is, judging from the traces left at the scene, the initiator of all this should have acted alone, so we
There is only one enemy to face."
Yu Lei said with a puzzled look: "It seems that these fish were bitten by some kind of creature and then thrown back into the water, so it's like a joke, not like a normal fish."
It has to eat...and even if it only takes one bite from so many fish, it must be full even if it is a tiger or a bear, so is this a new monster?"
Yu Lei nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he handed Liu Xing a dagger that looked very sharp, and then walked ahead to clear the way.
Liu Xing remembered that he had watched a documentary before, which said that salmon would pass through the territory of bears when they migrated back. Therefore, at this time, the bears were faced with countless food in the river, and they began to make their way through the year.
It is the happiest time in the world, because at this time they can really eat and throw away a salmon, so they will only eat the most delicious part of the salmon, and then abandon the salmon behind them like useless shoes.
Liu Xing took the talisman, turned around and headed upstream first, and Yu Lei quickly came to Liu Xing's side.
Finally, there is the method of measuring liquids. In ancient times, buckets were generally used for weighing, so the Xinlong Empire also placed a set of three buckets in each town, which are the so-called extra large cups, large cups and medium cups.
, which are approximately equal to the current five liters, one liter and five hundred milliliters respectively.
Of course, if we insist on making a point, Erliang wine is actually more than 110 milliliters, because the density of wine must be greater than that of water.
Although the Xinlong Empire has very rich fishery resources, few people would waste food so much, so Liu Xing wondered what happened upstream, such as a group of bears catching fish by the river?
Just after Ding Kun left with Huo Zijun and others, another player came over and said to Liu Xing: "Leader, there are a lot of dead fish coming from the upper reaches of the river, and the appearance of these fish is also very strange. It can be said that
They are all missing arms and legs."
"So, Alliance Leader, please send a few more people to help us clean up the site. After all, there are so many weeds and things that just a few of us can't clean up, and besides building a shed, we also have to move some things there," Huo Zijun said.
.
It didn't take long for Liu Xing and his two men to arrive at the river beach, and they saw a lot of fish jumping around on the river beach. Many of these fish were missing arms and legs, and they looked a little awkward when jumping.
It made Liu Xing's scalp numb.
Therefore, if the alliance cannot eliminate the threat posed by this monster in a short period of time, the NPCs in Sweetwater Town may want to move again. After all, the monster has already arrived at your door. If you don't run away,
I'm afraid it won't become food rations.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing said: "Would any of you help me inform Yu Lei, saying that I need him to accompany me to the upper reaches to take a look!"
"Do you need us to go with you?" Baihe City asked.
Liu Xing shook his head and replied: "Forget it, if you follow me and you are really in danger, then you can't do anything like me. So in order to prevent us from knocking others into the river when we turn back to escape, we
It’s better not to go together.”
Apart from that, no other figures were seen.
"Yeah, there doesn't seem to be any decent road upstream, so it's okay for just one or two people to walk there, but if there are more people, it's easy to cause problems."
After all, bears don’t have refrigerators.
"But the bad news is that this possible monster is less than two kilometers away from Sweetwater Town, so this means that it may sneak near Sweetwater Town at any time, and it may attack nearby residents.
Liu Xing said with a frown.
But this is not the point. The point is that although the new dragon emperor arranged for many famous craftsmen to jointly build this set of standard buckets, everyone knows that hand-made items will have some errors, and these standard buckets are all made of wood.
, after all, there is no stainless steel in this martial arts module, so if you use metal to make a fight, it will easily rust. What's more, the New Dragon Empire was still in a stage of waste and waiting for development, so there was so much metal that could be wasted at that time.
"Decoration" on the standard bucket?
Hearing what Liu Xing said, Yu Lei thought for a moment before speaking: "I remember walking about a kilometer ahead, the river will turn a corner, and there happens to be a river beach there, so the water flow there will
Slow it down, so there's a good chance the target we're looking for is right there."
"What is going on? Not to mention I have seen it before, I have never even heard of such a scene."
As for the so-called small cup, it only exists among the people. It is usually a small funnel used in pubs to serve drinks to guests. This is about one hundred milliliters, which is two ounces of wine in the real world.
"For fish, I remember a famous chef once cut off all the meat on it. As a result, the fish head can still swim in the water with the bones, but this can only last for a while, so this fish-eating
The unknown creature must have just eaten and drank enough to leave."
Liu Xing agreed directly without thinking, and arranged for Ding Kun to bring a few people over to help, because the most idle people now should be the hunting team led by Ding Kun. After all, there is no prey worth mentioning nearby.
, let alone Warcraft, so the hunting team can only do odd jobs here and there.
So looking at the dead fish on the river, Liu Xing felt that they most likely encountered some powerful predators, which is why they became like this.
So Huo Zijun and others really need to make their own experimental equipment. After all, they don't want to entrust their lives and safety to others, and everyone else here is still a second-hand person.
After hearing this, Liu Xing immediately took Zhang Jingxu and others to the river. The result was just as the player said, there were a large number of dead fish with missing arms and legs floating on the river. They looked like
It was someone eating at a buffet, and it felt like every item was thrown away after one bite.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing and Yu Lei checked various suspicious traces on the river beach together, hoping to determine the general situation of the target.
Soon, Yu Lei, who had more professional knowledge, came to a conclusion, "If the target is a monster, its size is not too outrageous, it is about the same as an ordinary tiger, and it is also on all fours.
Yes, so it can catch so many fish in a short period of time, which means that it is very fast, and it is also fast and accurate! But what is interesting is that there are no scratches on the claws of these fish, so this point is worthy of scrutiny.
Already."
Looking at Yu Lei who was a little confused, Liu Xing said subconsciously: "Is someone pretending to be a ghost? If it is a monster or a real tiger, they will cause harm to the fish in the process of catching the fish, so it cannot be so intact!
So is there someone who wants to play a prank, so he is acting like a ghost here, trying to scare us from leaving Sweetwater Town?"
"What you mean is that those people who set fire to Tianshui Town back then have been living near Tianshui Town. So now that they see A Peng and you guys planning to rebuild Tianshui Town, they want to use this method to drive you out.
Walk?"
Yu Lei shook his head and said seriously: "Apeng, your idea does make some sense, but the question is why these people stayed here for more than ten years? If this is the case, then they had some problems before that
A better opportunity to attack you! And I noticed a detail, that is, there are some unnatural water marks on the river beach, it looks like someone splashed water here, you should understand what I mean."
