Chapter 160: The Giant Locomotive - The Prototype

"Don't be angry, old man, although I really don't want to go for the trouble I have caused you, but in return, I will cook this morning's meal. ”

Chen Xin said as he walked directly to the kitchen and began to prepare breakfast.

They don't have a stove for cooking, so they can only cook with an induction cooker.

Not only are the cooking tools very simple, but even the ingredients they cook are very simple, because there is nothing to store here for a long time, so the most hearty thing they usually eat in the morning is just bread with eggs.

However, there are a lot of fast food here, and they can eat different flavors of fast food almost every day.

As a result, it didn't take long for them to swallow the vegetarian fast food.

"You young people's favorite vegetarian meal, so it was delicious at first, but when it came to the end, it really couldn't swallow at all, so you might as well take me to eat a little boiled egg with milk." ”

Although the old man is not a picky person, he is already a little tired of eating the vegetarian meal for such a long time, and he used to feel nothing even if he eats instant noodles for a month, but now that the three meals a day have been replaced with this kind of thing, he really can't accept it.

"Nowadays, young people like to eat this kind of thing, and eating too much of this kind of thing is really harmful to people's bodies and not beneficial. ”

The old man didn't have to cook this morning, don't sit there alone, while looking at Chen Xin who was cooking, he began to babble about what he usually likes to say.

Although Chen Xin said that he could hear it almost every day, and the same words would be repeated by this old man ten or twenty times, he would not get tired of hearing it.

After all, there are only two of them guarding here, and if he is tired of hearing what the old man says, then I'm afraid he can only leave himself here alone.

The old man is almost 70 years old, but after years of fitness, coupled with his original healthy diet and physical conditioning, his body is very healthy, and even much stronger than most young people now.

This is also the reason why he has been able to spend so much time with Chen Xin here, and he has not reacted at all.

If it's just a normal old person, it is estimated that they have already been tortured by the eating habits and the rest time here.

Chen Xin didn't want to make such a simple breakfast, after all, in order to repay this old man, how could he make something that the old man couldn't usually eat.

He took out the eggs and weighed them for a long time, but he didn't think about what he was going to do, he thought about it, and the things he had made were all things that were almost as simple as anyone could do.

Egg custard, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, these dishes he and the old man had almost eaten in so many days, and now the two of them really didn't want to eat this kind of dish anymore.

"I remember we had some vegetables in our vegetarian rice packs that we could use to cook. ”

Chen Xin then remembered that some of the instant meal bags he bought were vegetarian vegetables, which would turn into vegetable salad when soaked in water, and they could use those salads to stir-fry a dish.

As long as it's not sprinkled with salad dressing, those salads are nothing more than some of the most common vegetables.

The old man didn't think about it that way, and even said that he had never eaten those quick vegetables, because she always felt that those vegetables were dried and left for so long, and eating too much was not good for the body.

"You stinky boy, but think clearly, if your dish is not delicious, I won't eat it. ”

As the old man spoke, he turned on the TV directly, he didn't want to watch this stinky boy study dark cuisine all day long, after all, he had finally repaired the engine he wanted to build for so long, and it was time for him to rest for a while, he was always so tense that it was not good for people and things.

"You're embarrassed to say that I cook dark cuisine, and you don't look at what kind of dishes you usually make, I really can't complain, the two of us are half-hearted, don't dislike each other. ”

Chen Xin smiled as he boiled the boiling water, the last thing they lacked here was water and eggs, because these two things could be stored for a long time, and they didn't worry about them spoiling.

Chen Xi said just do it, and directly beat the eggs in the bowl, they need to scramble a plate of eggs to satisfy their hunger, here, in addition to rice steamed buns are eggs as the staple food, they really don't want to live on steamed buns alone, they can only rely on steamed buns and pickles and eggs, and eat some vegetables fried with vegetarian vegetables.

The old man didn't dare to look at the whole process of his cooking, because in his imagination, the food made by this kind of dish was not only not beautiful in color, but also not so delicious in taste.

However, Chen Xin's improved breakfast every day is indeed very interesting, it sandwiches steamed buns with eggs and pickles to make a simple meat sandwich bun, although this kind of eating is nothing in the eyes of outsiders, but in this place, they taste extremely fragrant.

Adding some chili sauce to the middle of the steamed bun will make it even more flavorful, which is already the best thing they have eaten in a long time.

"I said, old man, you have been here for so long, is it really that you live by eating these instant noodles every day?"

"Who told you that I have been here all along, I have only come back every once in a while to have a look, and I have not been here for long since the old master is gone. He used to be a person who loved flying, but he just had so much fun that he was one step ahead of me......"

Every time the old man mentioned his last master, he would show off to others with joy how good his old master was, as if his old master had been not only kind to him, but also to the people around him.

"I said why do you like your old master so much, I see that every time you mention him, I can't suppress your expression with excitement. ”

Chen Xin looked at the old man's expression while smiling, and sure enough, he couldn't hold back now.

"You can't imagine how good he is, he was a great pilot, and during the war, he led his fleet to bomb the enemy camp many times, and bombed down countless enemy planes. ”

As he spoke, the old man seemed to recall the hard years of the war years, but even though it was that time, he had always been with his old master.

"I used to be just a servant, I was sold to his house since I was a child, and he always treated me like a brother, and we ate everything delicious, but the relationship between the two of us did not change because of this. ”

The old man was still a more traditional man, he was very honest and loyal, and he thought that he had become a servant of others, and even if others had a good relationship with him, he must keep this promise.

"The old master especially likes to be a soldier, and his dream is to contribute to the country as a great soldier. But it was just in time for the war years, and his parents would never let him do that. ”

The old man wiped away his tears as he spoke, and he seemed to remember the stupid decision made by his old master, and his heart ached.

"I shouldn't have let him go to the army at that time, he pulled me hard and let the two of us go to the army together, so we both became honorable soldiers. ”

As he spoke, the old man took out his own certificate from his backpack, which he had left over from his own war. The certificate was old, but the old man's name was clearly written on it, and the other was his old master's.

"His grades are very good, and his command skills are very strong, so he was very appreciated by the above and became the leader of a fleet, and I am the deputy squad leader in its fleet. ”

The old man patted his chest proudly, and looked at it, disdainful sincerity on the side, as if Chen Xin was not interested in these things at all.

After all, how many years have passed, and the people who are interested in these things now are probably only some of their older generation.

"The two of us encouraged each other and encouraged each other, and we don't know how many planes were shot down in the skies over the enemy. In this way, we spent the war together, and after the war was over, the two of us went straight here, and bought this large warehouse as our entertainment. ”

The old man looked at the warehouse, and then gently touched the ground, which he had paved with cement with his old master inch by inch.

"We've done a lot of things here, we've renovated the arcade, we've renovated it into a basketball court, we've converted it into a parking lot. Then it became a parking lot like it is now. ”

As the old man spoke, the corners of his mouth were already overflowing with a smile, he remembered his happy times back then, and looked at it again, now he can only be here with this kid, repairing the engine and watching TV every day.

"If you want me to say, my life is not much more comfortable now than it was back then, I still had a lot of entertainment projects back then, but I didn't expect to stay here with you now and only rely on watching TV to pass the life. ”

As he spoke, the old man took a hard bite of the meat bun in his hand, and he suddenly felt as if he had returned to the war years, when he and his master fought hard to kill the enemy on the front line every day.

Chen Xin saw that the old man was getting more and more into the play, and he couldn't disturb him, so he finished eating silently alone, cleaned up again, and prepared to continue working.

He didn't bother the old man to eat, but just put away his very little portion, and the old man could see that the young man was not so interested in what he was talking about. On the contrary, there are still some who do not care.

"I said that you stinky boy has been working for so many days, don't you know how to rest and rest, if you continue to work like this, the efficiency will only get lower and lower, you must keep your efficiency at the highest point, you work like now, it is useless, whether it is from the quality or from the quality point of view. ”

The old man was old, and his speech was more or less inverted, but the meaning he wanted to express was still very clear.

Chen Xin didn't answer his words, just nodded while continuing to pack up the things he was going to pack, and the old man hurriedly ate the food in his hand in two bites, and then helped her start to clean up.

"I've got a lot to do today, and I'm going to soften all these iron plates today, and make them a rough framework all at once, and I want to make them the size I want. After all, what I want to do is not only a car, but also a living space. ”

Chen Xin looked at it as he spoke, there was nearly a ton of iron pieces over there, since he bought these things back, he already knew that it was absolutely impossible for him to go back in such a year, even if it was a year, he would work non-stop every day, if he did it slowly, I am afraid it would take longer.

"If you really want to build this place so well, you're not making a car at all, you're making a house. ”

The old man saw it for a long time, this stinky boy is not making a car at all, how can there be such a big car in this world, not to mention that he specially bought so many high-horsepower engines, in order to be able to drag this car, it seems that he has already premeditated, he wants to make this car very big.

"I said that it is useful for you to make the car so big, you have made it so big, it is just to stay here and look at it for a while, why don't the two of us take this money out and squander it more?"

The old man was originally very interested in the construction around here, but when he saw that he was going to build all these things into cars, he gave up on this matter.

After all, how can there be people in the world who are idle every day and have nothing to do, and spend so many years to repair something that is useless, and can only stay in place to look at it after repairing.

"Whoever told you that it's useless to finish repairing this thing, you don't look at it, the current situation is becoming more and more turbulent, if my judgment is not wrong, the world will soon be in chaos!"

Chen Xin frowned as he spoke, what he said was not alarmist, because he had already observed many small details, and many things in the world began to slowly develop in a direction that he couldn't control at all.

"Is what you said true, how do I feel that you are a stinky boy who is just an empty fantasy every day, not to mention that the world is so peaceful, there is not even a country that dares to provoke a war, how can it suddenly become chaotic. ”

Of course, the old man did not believe in the truth of this matter, because he had been in the war for nearly forty or fifty years, and he certainly did not believe that this thing would continue to happen, and as long as the war continued, there would be a large number of deaths and casualties. This is undoubtedly bad news for the country and for the world, how can anyone continue to want to provoke a war?

"There are nearly ten organizations that I have observed, and each organization is a large organization of supernatural beings, if these ten people think that if they start to start a war at the same time, then the pattern of the world will be changed immediately, I am not alarmist, I think it is not the first time you have known the word supernatural person. ”

Chen Xin didn't plan to tell the old man all these things, but after such a long time of observation and the experience of reading the old man's notes, the old man definitely knew about such a thing as a supernatural person. Because it was clearly written in his notes that even the plane's troops had a department of supernatural abilities.

"You stinky boy is really not simple, I knew from the beginning that you were definitely not a simple child who came to repair a car to play, I have noticed you since you had so many things, but I didn't expect you to dare to be so open and bring it up directly with me, since this topic has been raised, we will not hide from each other, let's explain it directly." ”

The old man cleared his throat as he spoke, in fact, he stayed here for a simple purpose in the first place, because how could he stay and suffer for a person he didn't know?

"Ever since you first came here and offered me to rent this warehouse for some construction, I have more or less realized that there is something wrong with you. Because no matter who it is, he can't rent a warehouse for no reason, and then bring in so many materials to do something. ”

The old man sat on the sofa while analyzing, the two of them had now had a showdown, their hole cards themselves were clear, and their opponent's hole cards were also understood by each other.

Now their situation can be said to be in the same boat, if once the organization discovers this huge warehouse and immediately invades, then they will definitely not be spared, so what they have to do now is only to establish the most basic trust between people, they must completely trust each other in order to achieve their ultimate goal.

"Then I'll tell you about what I observed, I didn't even tell Liu Neng about it. ”

Chen Xin looked at the old man, the old man's eyes were full of determination, and his eyes told him that this old man was definitely a soldier who could be trusted, and he had the loyal soul of a soldier.

Chen Xin thought as he took out his mobile phone directly from his pants, he had already made a huge planning map on his mobile phone, as well as the small clues he had collected over the years, no matter how small the clues, he would exist in a file without exception, in order to analyze the current situation.

"If you look at this small piece of things, there is a sudden strange change in the data, and how this strange change is caused, then I won't go into detail with you, you should also understand that the thing that caused this subtle change is the additional organization. ”

The old man frowned, and began to carefully observe the information he had collected for so many years, and indeed there was a lot of trickery in this information, because the extra number of people in the organization was indeed a little surprising.

"The explosion in the number of supernatural people will definitely not be due to the simple reproduction of supernatural people, but because they have an organization, and this organization has been exposed, so the identities of a group of supernatural people will be dug up. ”

The old man muttered to himself as he began to think about what he had heard and learned in the army.

"Adepts are definitely not that simple, they are likely to hide more people in order to deliberately expose themselves, so the number you estimate is definitely less than the real number and more than a star and a half. ”

As the old man spoke, he got up directly and flipped through the cabinet he had always treasured, he never rummaged through things in that cabinet, because the things in that cabinet were all her extremely precious information, and no one could look through them, so even Chen Xin never touched that box.

The old man rummaged through it for a long time, and finally took out a list from it, which recorded the number and list of people who had discovered abilities in the army throughout the country that year.

"Our census is at the level of a census, which is equivalent to us going through all the places in the country and asking almost everyone one by one, so our number is close to the actual value. ”

As the old man spoke, he handed the list to Chen Xin, and when Chen Xin looked at it, he already realized how wrong his estimate was, after all, a few decades ago, the number of this supernatural person had reached more than 100,000!

Chen Xin was a little speechless in shock for a while, after all, he had also experienced some small battles, but if he really compared to this number, then the small battles he experienced were really trivial.

"So you know how wrong your data collection is now, it can't just be a few hundred or a few thousand people over the years, at least it has increased exponentially, so the number of Abilities is absolutely immeasurable to us. ”

The old man sighed as he spoke, he felt that his situation and the situation were becoming more and more dangerous.

"And according to my investigation and summary over the years, in addition to the four more famous organizations in this world, such as wind, forest, fire, and mountain, there is also a mysterious organization and some cult organizations composed of a small number of people exist among the superpowers. ”

Chen Xin took out a small newspaper that he had only come down that year, and it was clearly written that there was another new case in the police station, and this case was actually a tragic case with no name and no ending.

"There is no way to search his file on the official website of the police station in this case, which means that even people inside the police department have no permission to see this list. That would suffice to say that these are definitely Adepts, and that these Adepts don't know where they have gone. There is no way to search his file on the official website of the police station in this case, which means that even people inside the police station have no permission to see this list. That would be enough to show that these Adepts have definitely appeared, and that after they appear, they don't know where they have disappeared. ”

The old man was also thinking about this problem, after all, he had heard about this case back then, and this case was even more evil back then, and now it seems that it was just an ordinary small case, in those days, everyone thought it was a huge supernatural event, because a group of supernatural people were really in a closed environment, and suddenly evaporated from the world overnight.

Chen Xin has already seen a lot of people with spatial abilities, so he doesn't have much hope and research for this so-called supernatural event now, and he probably already has a number in his heart.

Of course, the old man also knew that there was such a supernatural ability, so when he watched the news back then, he probably guessed in his heart that this was probably the work of the supernatural, but people did not accept the theory of the supernatural, because this kind of thing was too far beyond reality.

"It seems that we have both been honest about what we want to achieve, so since we have the same purpose, let's cooperate well in the future, just like the original, I will repair the machine, and you will be responsible for watching TV here and sorting out some information. ”

As Chen Xin spoke, he directly handed the notebook in his hand to the old man, he hoped that the old man could write down all the notes he had made in the notebook, because in this way it would be much easier for them to analyze in the end.

The old man took the heavy notebook, and after weighing it a few times, he said with a smile:

"I haven't written for so many years, but I didn't expect that now a child actually asked me to write, it seems that I am really old. It's really getting worse and worse than it was back then. ”

As the old man spoke, he kept himself on the sofa, and he continued to watch his favorite TV series, and as for sorting out the information, I will leave it to later.

Chen Xin stood up directly, he put all the tableware he had packed up into the basin, and then walked directly to the countless iron plates alone, he knocked on the iron plates while touching them, he wanted to find the most suitable metal for the outermost layer.

"The outermost layer must not be the softest, nor the hardest, but the middle of the hardness, because the outermost layer is affected by the temperature difference, and the effect of metal fracture is the most obvious!"

Although the old man didn't learn this professionally back then, he still knew some common sense knowledge, so he was worried that this young man would choose the wrong material and waste metal, so he specially reminded him a few words.

"You bad old man, I don't even know this kind of thing, what are you here to repair, hurry up and go home and farm directly!"

Chen Xin replied to him helplessly, and at the same time began to look for the most favorite material in his mind.

"Iron is too soft, steel is too hard, this is the problem he has been struggling with, after all, he can't use these two most popular materials, so when he bought the materials, he didn't buy these two metals. ”

Chen Xin carefully recalled what metal he bought back then, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't come up with a specific name. Because I bought too much back then.

"Old man, what kind of metal did you use when you made airplanes, and you can fly at such a high altitude!"

The old man was watching a TV series, and suddenly he was asked such a question, and he was suddenly blindfolded.

After all, he hasn't been in this industry for so many days, and he can't answer when he is suddenly asked.

However, with his memory, he could still barely figure out what materials he did back then.

"You have to use carbon fiber, it's very popular, it can always be when you're flying in the sky. All the large swings that are generated can make your plane more safe and reliable. ”

When the old man said these words, he hardly had to go through his brain, because it had already formed a conditioned reflex in his mind.

Chen Xin frowned and rubbed his chin as he began to think about where he had to go to get the carbon fiber material.

After all, even if you get carbon fiber materials, you may not be able to add these materials perfectly to the metal, which is something that ordinary people can't do.

"Would you use carbon fiber in an airplane? I've never used that material. ”

Chen Xin has only heard the word carbon fiber on the TV or in the propaganda column of the shopping mall, and I have heard that many sports cars have used it, but this material is so valuable that he doesn't know where to buy it.

"Forget it, you still use the most basic metal as the material, carbon fiber is too expensive to sit in a car, and carbon fiber is not anti-installation at all. Don't you have a metal that heals on its own? and that metal is the most perfect. ”

The TV is still broadcasting, but the old man's heart is no longer on the TV, so he began to think about it. How can you make a perfect locomotive?

This means that if carbon fiber is used, although the weight of the whole car can be reduced, its crash resistance and its defense will be greatly reduced.

If the car was really meant to prevent that kind of emergency, then he couldn't be left like that.

"After all, you have a lot of horsepower, and you don't have to worry about getting left behind because you're not fast enough, so you don't have to. With carbon fiber, this material is just created to prevent you from going too slow. ”

As he spoke, the old man stood up again, wanting to see if there was any material he was talking about.

Chen Xin also nodded slightly, he still has a lot of that kind of material left, if he only uses this material for appearance, it should be enough.

The two of them slowly walked together to the place where the special metal was originally stacked. After all, that position was now occupied by the huge iron bucket of power stones.

The two of them have collected a lot of good things recently, and a large amount of energy can provide them with huge energy, and now this power is almost immeasurable. And even now, as far as the eye can see every morning, there are a large number of unknown stones appearing on the roofs of their houses. They simply didn't find out what the reason was.

But they didn't want to think too much about it, so they continued to collect those stones as they used to reserve energy for the future.

"If you judge by the way I feel this metal now, it should be very hard to the touch at room temperature. And this hardness is not simply hard, but hard with very low strength. ”

The old man tapped his middle finger and analyzed it, after all, the metal used to make the shell of this locomotive must be slightly less hard, and if the hardness is too high, it will be too fragile. If it has experienced a long period of low and high temperatures, it can easily break.

He was extremely satisfied with the metal in front of him, because it met almost all the requirements of his heart for this metal. What's even more valuable is that this metal can heal automatically.

"People in the black market say he can absorb bullets, and they say she can absorb the iron around her, but I've never experimented with it, because I think it's a bit of nonsense, and if it does, then why don't they make a fortune from it?"

The old man didn't think so, because he had already heard that there was a material that could absorb the iron around it, but it needed a lot of iron to absorb it slowly. If the gang really sold him this material, it would really be a fortune.

"Back in my day, I heard of a material that could absorb the surrounding iron and multiply, but it needed a lot of iron to be able to absorb it. So the reason why they don't absorb is because the cost is too high, you can experiment with it, put metal and iron around him, and see if he will be absorbed at all. ”

The old man suddenly became a little excited, because if this experiment was really successful, it would mean that the two of them would not only have to complete a huge project, but also have a qualitative leap in technology, even nearly 100 times ahead of their contemporaries.

The two of them said they would do it, and began to busily load all the pieces of iron from a distance onto a huge cart. They wanted to transport iron pieces, and this was the only way, and the other methods were almost impossible, after all, their manpower and material resources were limited, and they could only barely transport these things out by means of huge carts and their manpower.

This also leads to an extremely large workload for the two of them, and even if they don't eat or drink, they will have to work for a long time, for a long time. This also made the old man's body somewhat unbearable.

"Old man, don't do it, just sit down with your little body and think about it, I am inexperienced in many aspects of this kind of thing, and only by relying on an experienced old man like you can we find out, so you have to save your physical strength, and let me find a way not to work here here to help me pull these metals." ”

Chen Xin pushed the old man directly onto the sofa as he spoke, and continued to let him sit and watch TV. After all, the old man is so old that he is not suitable for this kind of thing at all.

The old man's skylight also smiled slightly, although the child in front of him usually looked very aggressive, in fact, he was still very sensible when he encountered things, and he knew very well what the current situation was.

The old man was no longer reluctant, after all, he really couldn't do it, and if he went, he could only help a little bit, but it would slow down the whole process.

"I remember you have a supernatural ability, right? you can use your mental ability to exercise things with the squad leader, and we still have a lot of time anyway. Even if you work on your abilities here, no one will blame you. ”

The old man smiled slightly, and looked at Chen Xin's reaction, Chen Xin also laughed, after all, the two of them, although they are like mirrors in their hearts about this matter, although there are some things that are not discovered on the surface, but secretly they are all very anxious.

Chen Xin said to do it, and it worked in an instant, writing about his own strange ability, his mental ability is very special, first of all, he must still the surrounding environment. In this static environment, no matter what he does, he will be 100 times, or even a thousand times, higher than his usual project. Because his strength has become extremely huge, but this has also led to the loss of his strength, which is also nearly hundreds or even thousands of times that of usual.

Dust, which has been working continuously for a long time, will be somewhat uncomfortable if it starts working at this intensity all of a sudden.

However, he didn't have any other thoughts in his heart, after all, there was still an old man standing behind him.

He opened his eyes widening instantly, his hands slowly bloomed, and the time around him stopped instantly, as if the molecules had stopped flowing. Even if he had the strength to hit an umbrella head-on, he could easily pinch all the bullets and then hit people in the face.

Not only that, but his thinking ability is much faster now, and his physical fitness has also improved a lot.

However, his physical strength was also consuming his obvious feeling at a visible rate, and it was like a huge pump in his body, which was constantly pumping his energy out.

"You must not overdo anything when you use something, and if you do, it can have huge irreversible consequences. ”

Chen Xin remembered that Liu Neng patted him on the shoulder before he left, and his eyes were full of words of trust.

He knew what Liu Neng was telling him for, but Liu Neng was still a little uneasy, what kind of activities was he going to do when he went out this time? If anyone really asked him to see this matter, I am afraid that he would not believe it.

"Don't worry, Liu Neng, I will definitely satisfy you this time, not to mention that since I met you, have I done anything that is not good for you or dissatisfying you?"

Chen Xin muttered to himself, and began to use all his strength to continuously move the huge iron plates onto the huge cart, each piece of nearly a hundred pounds of iron plates, in Chen Xin's eyes, it was as easy as taking a small box, and he picked it up with a clamp with both hands!
