Chapter 223: Exploding the chamber, a failed experiment
In the early morning of the next day, when the sun shined through the dense rainforest on the face of the mad general, the giant Lin Shuhang had already gotten up early and been busy in his prehistoric arsenal for more than an hour.
For him, today is an important day, as it will be his first step into the "thermal-like weapon era". It is conceivable that he was excited and expected, and he hardly slept that night.
When he found that the crazy general had woken up, Lin Shuhang shouted to him: "Lazy Bear, when is this? Come here and peel dates with me!"
After previous observations, Lin Shuhang discovered that the jujube flesh of exploding dates did not play any role in the process of bursting the jujube core. In order to prevent the jujube flesh from affecting this shooting test, the jujube flesh could only be removed.
The method of removing jujube cores is simple and crude. You can peel it with your hands, bite it with your teeth, or hit it with a stone. In short, use whatever method is simple.
"Crazy General, do you hear me? Come here and peel the dates! I've been peeling them for over an hour!" Lin Shuhang urged the Crazy General again.
"Roar!" the mad general responded, moving his 40-ton body and walked over.
"Peel all these dates apart. Don't leave out the jujube flesh, leaving only the jujube core."
Under Lin Shuhang's demonstration, the Crazy General quickly understood what was going on and began to squat there peeling dates with Lin Shuhang.
Ripe jujubes are still easy to peel. If you hit them hard with a stone, the jujube meat and jujube core can be easily separated, which is very convenient.
Soon, the peeled jujube flesh was piled on the ground to form a hill. It was worthy of being a giant jujube in prehistoric times. Even the air was filled with the sweet and sour taste of the pulp.
"It's a pity that there are so many jujube meats..."
"Yeah, what a pity! If we opened a prehistoric food processing factory here, we would definitely make a lot of money!"
"What a pity?" Lin Shuhang smiled at the live broadcast camera: "In the Titan Continent, the most indispensable thing is resources!"
This is absolutely true, take these giant jujubes as an example, they are like weeds in large numbers.
After removing all the pulp from the exploding dates they found, and taking a short rest, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General officially began their shooting test.
"God bless, I hope this shooting test can go smoothly."
As he spoke, Lin Shuhang selected a bamboo from among the many bamboos. He checked the bamboo inside and out. After finding that there was no problem, he handed the bamboo to the crazy general at the side.
The Crazy General was big and strong, and was mainly responsible for holding the gun and shooting in this shooting test, while Lin Shuhang was responsible for loading the gun.
"Crazy General, get ready, I'm going to start loading bullets." Lin Shuhang said.
"Roar!" the mad general responded and quickly grabbed the bamboo tube used for test firing.
Seeing that the Crazy General was already prepared, Lin Shuhang took a deep breath, picked up an exploding date core from the ground, and filled the date core from the end of the bamboo tube.
The next step is to launch the jujube core!
Unlike gunpowder bullets made chemically by humans, these "plant bullets" created by nature are very magical. They do not use gunpowder as power when launched, but use the powerful thrust of high-pressure gas to fly.
Lin Shuhang had dissected this kind of jujube core before, and he had a relatively clear understanding of the internal structure and emission principle of the jujube core.
This kind of date core is different from ordinary date cores. Their lower part has a "gas storage cavity" filled with high-pressure gas. The pressure in the air cavity is so huge that it can crush a forty or fifty kilograms of date cores like cannonballs.
It also shoots out dozens of kilometers.
In order to store these high-pressure gases, the explosive jujube has evolved a special shell.
This shell is as hard as steel, so hard that a stone cannot break it, and only strong acid or alkali can corrode it through.
Once the outer shell of the jujube pit is eroded by strong acid or alkali substances, the high-pressure gas inside will pass through the exhaust hole on the jujube pit, causing the jujube pit to be ejected from the bamboo tube like a cannonball, which is very magical.
After loading the "bullets" into the bamboo tube, Lin Shuhang went to the puddle filled with acid rain yesterday, found a leaf, rolled it into a cylinder, and scooped some stagnant water from the puddle.
When scooping water, Lin Shuhang's movements were very gentle, because this was not ordinary rainwater, but acid rain that could corrode steel. He had to be careful enough, otherwise he might be hurt by the rainwater.
"Crazy General, hold on! I'm going to start lighting the fire!"
Lin Shuhang took a deep breath and carefully poured the scooped acid rain onto the "Plant Bullet" cylinder.
After pouring the acid water, Lin Shuhang immediately jumped aside in panic.
There was no way around it, this was his first time doing such a dangerous weapon test, and he was really too nervous.
Lin Shuhang stood next to the crazy general, nervously waiting for the moment when the gun fired.
Three seconds passed and the gun did not go off.
Five seconds passed and the gun still didn't go off.
Ten seconds passed and the gun still didn't go off.
"Is it a dud?" Lin Shuhang felt something was wrong.
"There must be something wrong somewhere!" Lin Shuhang thought, and decided to check the plant bullet to see why it hadn't been fired after so long.
Just when Lin Shuhang was about to lower his head to check the barrel of the gun, the acid rain finally eroded the hard shell of the date core.
In an instant, hundreds of cubic meters of high-pressure gas were ejected from the exhaust hole at the end of the date core, and like a rocket, the entire date core weighing forty or fifty kilograms was pushed out of the bamboo tube.
The date core flew out, but the bamboo barrel also suffered devastating damage.
After all, bamboo is not steel, and its hardness is too poor. The moment the date core flew out, a strong airflow instantly accumulated in the bamboo tube, and the high-pressure gas that could not be discharged directly exploded the entire bamboo.
With a loud "boom", Lin Shuhang's gun exploded!
Exploded bamboo pieces flew all over the sky, beating everything around like a belt.
As we all know, bamboo blades are one of the sharpest things in the plant world. If the angle is right, the power of bamboo blades can sometimes be even more powerful than a knife.
Unfortunately, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General fell into the trap.
Because the explosion happened too suddenly, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General were hit by the exploding bamboo fragments before they could react.
Fortunately for Lin Shuhang, he was standing far away and was protected by the human-shaped human shield of the Mad General. After the explosion, the damage he received was not very serious. He was just hit in the nose by a broken bamboo splinter.
His nose was bleeding.
The Crazy General was not so lucky. Since it was closest to the barrel of the gun, it would be the first thing to be drawn after the chamber exploded.
Bamboo slices and belts were slapped on the crazy general's face and body, crackling, like killing a pig, and the slaps were painful!
"Holy shit, what's going on? Why did the chamber suddenly explode?"
Looking at the exploded bamboo pipe, the live broadcast room exploded. No one expected this result.
